A person in the heavens, starting with a Chaos Emperor Dao Fruit

The second golden pagoda is called the "Nine Lives Pagoda," and this treasure is also used for escaping. Once this pagoda is refined, its energy can be used to create nine avatars, each possessing abilities comparable to the original pagoda and capable of escape; the only drawback is that they cannot fight others.

These nine incarnations are meant to confuse the enemy in times of crisis.

The Taoist Sanshou originally intended to take this magic treasure into the battlefield, but he eventually gave up because enemies were everywhere on that kind of battlefield, and the Nine Lives Pagoda would not be of much use. So he left this treasure to his descendants.

The last treasure here, that bead, is a supreme treasure of the killing path that is most difficult to control.

This is also the only offensive magic weapon left behind by the Taoist Sanshou.

As the child finished his self-introduction, he taunted, "If you can't control me, you should return me to the Three Pure Ones as soon as possible and exchange me for a magical artifact that you can use!"

"You think I can't control you?!" Yunhua chuckled.

The child still wore a mocking expression: "Wait until you can refine me before you talk!"

"Then just watch!"

Yunhua didn't bother to say anything more. With a thought, all the beads flew up, and for a moment, the whole small house seemed to have a brilliant galaxy, shining brightly.

There were a total of 3,600 beads. Yunhua's divine power and consciousness directly enveloped all 3,600 beads, and in an instant, he refined all of them, leaving his own divine soul imprint within them.

Innate spiritual treasures are both the easiest and the most difficult to refine. They are difficult because they possess the spirit of a spiritual treasure, and if that spirit resists, even a true god would find it difficult to refine.

It is said to be the easiest to refine because of the spirit of the treasure. As long as the spirit of the treasure does not resist, even a mortal can refine it.

The moment Yunhua refined the three thousand six hundred beads, she immediately sensed an extremely profound restriction contained within them.

"This restriction... is so profound!" Yunhua couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Incomparably mysterious restrictions, boundless and limitless restrictions.

At this moment, the spirit of the bead spoke again, its voice still cold and arrogant: "You see, don't you? The terrifying power of this restriction!?"

“In the chaos there are countless stars, and the essence left behind after the stars fall naturally condenses into crystal cores. When Pangu separated heaven and earth, these crystal cores naturally entered the ancient world and were nurtured by the newly born Pangu world, undergoing another transformation, thus becoming the Star Gold Beads we know today.”

“Three thousand six hundred star gold beads, each one is an innate spiritual treasure, and they can transform into anything, whether it is a sword, spear, halberd, bow, club, axe, or fork. Moreover, when these three thousand six hundred star gold beads resonate together, they reach the ultimate level of innate power.”

The spirit of this magical treasure proudly recounted its origins, continuing, "Then the Three Pure Ones obtained these three thousand six hundred Star Gold Pearls. When the Three Pure Ones comprehended Yin and Yang and roamed freely in the Chaos, he encountered a great opportunity and discovered the Ninefold Chaos Restriction."

"The Three Pure Ones discovered that the Ninefold Chaos Restriction was incredibly profound, so they erased all the restrictions originally imprinted on me and then imprinted the Ninefold Chaos Restriction onto me, integrating it all into the Star Gold Beads. From then on, the power of this set of Star Gold Beads increased dramatically."

“However, these nine layers of chaotic restrictions are too profound and mysterious. Throughout ancient times, no one has been able to completely refine them.” The child still looked at Yunhua with arrogance. “Even when the Three Pure Ones asked Goddess Nuwa to try, she failed.”

"Of course, even Goddess Nuwa only spent three years pondering it. I believe that if she had pondered it until now, she would have already completely refined it. However, compared to Goddess Nuwa, even the Three Pure Ones only refined seven layers of the Chaos Restriction. But by referring to me, he refined the number one killing treasure in the Three Realms—the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!"

"However, this Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation only incorporates the mysteries of seven layers of chaotic restrictions; it is far inferior to my nine layers of chaotic restrictions!"

The child recounted his entire origins in one breath, still very arrogant, hoping that Yunhua would return the three thousand six hundred star gold beads to the Three Pure Ones.

“Alright, I understand your background now. I’ll give it a try!” Yunhua said.

Yun Hua knew more about the origins of these nine chaotic restrictions than the spirit of the Star Gold Pearl itself. These nine chaotic restrictions were left behind by the Supreme Being and represented the culmination of a Supreme Being's life's work.

Above the World Gods is the Lord of Life and Death. The Lord of Life and Death faces life and death at every step, but once he overcomes the tribulation of death and successfully merges with the Dao, he becomes the Eternal Emperor.

Building upon the foundation of the Eternal Emperor, one can go a step further, creating myriad paths from a single one, thus advancing to the highest realm of cultivation in this universe—the Supreme Being.

The things left behind by the Supreme Being are naturally very difficult to refine.

Upon hearing Yunhua say that he wanted to refine it, the spirit of the Star Gold Pearl said, "You need to refine at least one layer of restrictions to barely control me. Otherwise, if I fall into your hands, I can only be used as a pearl to hit people."

"Even celestial beings and true immortals like yourself, only a small fraction with the strongest comprehension, can refine even one level of the Chaos Restriction; even the Dao Ancestor is lucky to refine three levels. The Three Pure Ones have only refined seven levels over countless years."

Yun Hua was too lazy to listen to the spirit of the magical treasure's boasting, so he directly began to refine the Chaos Restriction.

"Boom!" Three thousand six hundred star-gold beads floated in front of Yun Hua, dark golden light flowing and changing on the surface of all the beads, as if endless.

This is the Ninefold Chaos Restriction created by the Supreme Being.

This restriction is constantly changing, seemingly without end, like an irrational number, infinite and without any pattern. Unless its essence is grasped, it is absolutely impossible to refine.

Even when the Three Pure Ones first saw these nine layers of restrictions, they were shocked. It took him a full 120,000 years to comprehend them and successfully memorize the nine layers of chaotic restrictions, imprinting them onto the Star Gold Bead.

But that was just memorizing, not refining.

“Endless changes—in fact, all Dao and Dharma possess such changes!” Yunhua completely immersed himself in it, and this chaotic restriction seemed to be trying to summarize a set of applicable rules from endless changes.

Just like irrational numbers in mathematics.

For example, 1.414... No matter how you write it, there is no end. You could write this string of numbers on all the paper in the world, but once you figure out the pattern, it becomes the square root of two.

"However, the first layer of the Chaos Restriction is not too difficult!" Yun Hua only spent half an hour comprehending it before he quickly refined the first layer of the Chaos Restriction and completely mastered it.

Chapter 1017 Heart of Fire

At the same time, Yunhua opened his eyes, looked at the golden star beads in front of him, and said, "Condense!"

Instantly, all 3,600 star gold beads came to life, each hundred beads merging into one, and in the blink of an eye, the 3,600 star gold beads were transformed into 36 beads.

"Boom!!"

The thirty-six star-gold beads that had merged back together immediately unleashed a tremendous divine power, and a terrifying pressure emanated from those thirty-six beads, filling the entire room.

"What? So fast? How could it be so fast? You were able to condense the Thirty-Six Heavens in just half an hour!?" The spirit of the Star Gold Pearl looked at Yun Hua in shock, its face filled with disbelief.

"The first few layers of this restriction are quite simple; this is just the beginning. Keep watching!" Yunhua closed his eyes and continued refining.

"Yes, Master!!" The spirit of the Star Gold Pearl dared not put on airs anymore, and even changed its way of addressing Yun Hua.

The second layer of restriction was significantly more difficult than the first. Even Yunhua spent half a day to fully comprehend it.

"out!"

Yunhua immediately took out his Star Gold Beads, causing them to reappear in their original form of 3,600 beads. As Yunhua's divine power surged, all 3,600 Star Gold Beads lit up, and the divine patterns on their surfaces shifted and changed, revealing a mysterious aura.

Each of the star-shaped golden beads was noticeably more powerful, and their aura was even more terrifying.

"Wow, amazing! In just over half a day, he has refined two layers of restrictions in succession. This speed is not much weaker than that of the Goddess Nuwa back then!" The spirit of the Star Gold Pearl was overjoyed. Yun Hua's performance was even stronger than that of his previous master, the Three Pure Ones.

"Congeal!"

With a thought, Yun Hua quickly merged the 3,600 star-gold beads, which in the blink of an eye transformed back into the Thirty-Six Heavens. However, the Thirty-Six Heavens were now far more terrifying than before.

In particular, with these thirty-six heavens floating around him, Yunhua vaguely sensed something extremely mysterious, which made him clearly perceive that each of these thirty-six beads was like a sun.

Although it appears to be just a bead, without emitting light or heat, when you carefully contemplate it, you feel as if it were a small sun.

"When it was my turn, the second restriction was actually fire?" Almost subconsciously, Yunhua transformed all thirty-six heavens into cauldrons, with flames blazing inside, emitting an incomparably mysterious fire aura. Looking at it was like watching the Great Dao of Fire.

"The second layer of restrictions is indeed terrifying; different people perceive different things," Yunhua thought in amazement.

In the original novel, when Ji Ning fully comprehended the second layer of restrictions, what he perceived was destiny, because he was experiencing the myriad aspects of the mortal world at that time; while when he fully comprehended the third layer of restrictions, what he perceived was slaughter, because he was filled with rage and was searching for the Wujian Sect to commit massacres.

Yunhua, however, was different. He had just comprehended the second layer of restrictions not long ago, when he had also perfected the third layer of fire power. Now, the second layer of restrictions allowed Yunhua to perceive flames.

"So that's how it is, so this is fire..." Yunhua stopped trying to comprehend the restrictions and instead began to understand the Great Dao of Fire and the power of fire anew.

By using those thirty-six cauldrons to further comprehend the power of fire, his fire power advanced even further in just a short time. Although he still hadn't reached the fourth realm, he was now at the peak of the third realm, just one step away from the fourth realm.

"Perhaps we won't even need to fight; we can directly enter the fourth realm of fire power!" Yun Hua was quite surprised after a brief moment of comprehension. He hadn't expected that comprehending the Ninefold Chaos Restriction would lead to such a significant improvement in his fire power.

"Continue, the third restriction, perhaps it can allow me to take another step forward!" Yunhua placed all his hopes on the third restriction, perhaps by fully comprehending it, his fire power could directly step into the fourth realm.

Continue to comprehend the Ninefold Chaos Restriction.

The difficulty of the third layer of chaotic restriction has increased significantly. Even Yun Hua, after much contemplation, spent three months before he could fully comprehend it.

“Boom!”, “Boom!”, “Boom!”…

All the golden beads flew up, as if they had transformed into a sky full of stars.

As Yunhua refined them, the aura emanating from each Star Gold Bead grew stronger and stronger. Their auras increased rapidly until they were stronger than those of ordinary top-grade innate magic treasures, at which point the increase gradually stopped.

Only after being enchanted by three layers of restrictions can the true power of this magical artifact be revealed.

Each of the three thousand six hundred star-gold beads is no less than a typical innate top-grade magic treasure. Even without forming the Thirty-Six Heavens, such a set of magic treasures, simply by using some formations to combine, can unleash overwhelming divine power.

"The third layer of chaotic restriction has finally been refined..." Yun Hua closed his eyes and quietly sensed the changes within himself.

At the very moment of refining the Chaos Restriction, a strange aura was triggered.

In that instant, Yunhua felt as if a hole had suddenly been pierced through the dark, cloud-covered sky, and a ray of brilliant sunlight shone down from the high sky.

“This feeling…” Almost instantly, Yunhua grasped that mysterious and unpredictable fluctuation.

His heart was completely immersed in the Path of Fire, constantly pursuing the true meaning of the sparks from Mars, and continuously seeking the profound mysteries of the Path of Fire. He was pondering and comprehending...

His insights into fire from other worlds flooded his mind, allowing him to distinguish which techniques were applicable to this world and which were not; he also fully grasped the original fire control techniques of this Desolate Era world in that instant.

Without a sound, the fire power on Yunhua's body changed. The original golden-red fire power turned into a brilliant gold in an instant!

"This is what they call the Heart of Fire!!" A strange emotion welled up in Yunhua's heart, a mixture of gratitude, surprise, and joy...

This was the first time Yunhua had comprehended something like this. He had never had such an understanding of the Dao in other worlds.

Heart of Fire! So that one's fire is one's heart, and one's heart is one's fire.

This is a mysterious and indescribable realm.

Especially at this moment, he felt a strange sensation in his divine body, as if a desire had arisen within him.

The originally flawless divine body yearns to move forward and evolve further.

"In the process of comprehension, I am naturally about to break through to the True God Realm! Not only is my fire power breaking through, but my realm is also about to advance further." With a thought, Yun Hua immediately suppressed his advancement.

Previously, although he was confident that he could break through to the True God Realm at any time, his confidence at that time depended on his full concentration. But now, he has to suppress his realm, otherwise he will break through naturally.

It's not time for me to advance to the level of a true god yet; I need to go to that place first.

"It's time to go!" Yunhua stood up.

"Master, aren't you going to continue comprehending the Ninefold Chaos Restriction? You've only comprehended the third level in three months. If you continue, you might be able to comprehend the fourth level!" asked the spirit of the Star Gold Pearl beside him.

Chapter 1018 The World Under the Moonlit Pool

"No need for now. I'm just a Celestial God right now. I'll wait until I break through to the True God Realm!" Yun Hua replied casually, then left the Star-Picking Palace and headed into the depths of chaos.

A colossal star radiated a soft light, illuminating the endless chaos.

This star is very similar to the Taiyin Star in the Three Realms, and on this star, there is a huge pool of water whose end cannot be seen even by divine sense.

There are stars resembling the moon, and a pool of water reflecting the moon's image. This place is Moonlit Pool.

After comprehending the three layers of the Chaos Restriction, Yunhua came here directly.

"Moonlit Pool World, this is a secret realm opened up by the Northern Xiu World God countless years ago, and the legacy of the Northern Xiu World God is left here..." Yunhua descended here and looked at the "bright moon" in the sky from afar.

The world of Moonlit Pool is very strange; only gods can enter it. As for true gods above gods, if they enter the pool, they will immediately feel a terrible repulsive force and will not be able to truly enter the world of Moonlit Pool.

This is also why Yunhua had to suppress her own strength.

If you don't suppress your strength, you won't be able to enter this place once you break through to the True God stage.

The Moonlit Pool World is the greatest opportunity in the Three Realms. One can break through to the True God Realm at any time, but such an opportunity is gone once missed.

"Pfft!"

Yunhua instantly plunged into the waters of Moonlit Pool. In an instant, he felt a strange ripple sweep past him, and then space and time shifted, and Yunhua instantly found himself above a strange reef.

He floated down slowly and landed on the reef.

All around, countless waves crashed against the rocks, scattering patches of silvery-white water; in the sky, a silver moon enveloped the entire world.

Directly ahead, there is a wooden bridge floating on the ocean. One end of the bridge is connected to the reef, while the other end leads into the deep sea.

"This is the Moonlit Pool World created by the Northern World God. It is indeed quite mysterious!" Yun Hua tried using his divine sense and mental power, but neither worked and he could not extend it too far.

Without wasting any time, he flew directly along the wooden bridge into the distance.

"Wow!"

Just as Yunhua was flying, a bright green head suddenly emerged from underwater, looking at Yunhua flying in mid-air from afar. Its eyes were filled with excitement, and a trace of killing intent burst forth.

This was a humanoid creature with a bright green body, somewhat resembling a yaksha. It held a steel fork and quickly disappeared into the distance, then reappeared in the sea tens of thousands of miles away, quietly lurking ahead of Yunhua's advance.

He looked at Yunhua with his dark red eyes and muttered excitedly to himself, "How rare! It takes countless years to encounter a prey like this. I hope you are strong enough, otherwise it will be too boring."

"kill!"

The emerald green humanoid creature suddenly transformed into a streak of light and flew out of the sea, wielding a steel fork and attacking Yunhua directly. A loud explosion echoed in the void, tearing through the sky.

This is a god-level being with extraordinary strength, and the fact that it attacked at such close range is sure to shock many gods.

A glint of light flashed in Yunhua's eyes, and after clearly seeing the monster, she immediately took action.
