Qi Shi'an coughed up blood on the spot, his bones broke and tendons snapped. The small amount he inhaled had entered various parts of his body before it could be refined, causing great damage.

This thing is too terrifying. For humans, it is a deadly poison that can destroy the fruits of human cultivation. It is truly terrifying to the extreme.

If it were someone else, the scene would probably have exploded.

Qi Shi'an absorbed the last bit of the Heaven-Mending Liquid, quickly repairing his body and reconnecting his broken bones, allowing his weakened vitality to gradually recover.

"boom!"

The Dao principles contained within the Golden Bodhi Fruit bombarded his primordial spirit, immediately causing his Dao heart to become unstable and his primordial spirit to nearly shatter.

This was a life-or-death ordeal. In just a few moments, Qi Shi'an's entire body seemed to be torn to pieces, a bloody mess.

If someone at the Divine Fire Realm were to encounter such a calamity, they would surely die, but he survived by relying on the Heaven-Mending Liquid.

Qi Shi'an felt his physical body's magical immunity becoming clearer. He calmed down and, while consuming and refining the Golden Bodhi Fruit, he also circulated the True Phoenix Nirvana Technique to repair his injuries.

Qi Shi'an's bloodied and mangled body suddenly glowed red, and a layer of flames like phoenix feathers enveloped his entire body, with vigorous vitality surging like a volcanic eruption.

Broken bones and torn flesh are healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After two full hours, Qi Shi'an finally refined eighty percent of the Golden Bodhi Fruit, but he was still not satisfied. He threw every piece of fruit pulp, along with a fruit pit, into his mouth.

The flesh of the Golden Bodhi Fruit provides a secret power that can grant immunity to magical powers, while the kernel in the pit provides vitality, allowing this power to grow continuously.

Consuming only the pulp or kernels will significantly reduce the effectiveness; only by consuming both together will the effect be optimal.

Qi Shi'an's body emitted a green light, the nuts melted inside his body, and strange laws and divine power surged through his body, instantly turning his physical body into a mangled mess.

The runes of the Myriad Trees formed golden chains of divine order, immobilizing his physical body, while the True Phoenix Fire continuously healed his injuries.

Faintly, streaks of crimson-gold light flickered, accompanied by a faint green life force. His body rapidly reassembled and returned to its original state, but the domineering golden power once again caused his body to crack.

And so, Qi Shi'an's physical body was repeatedly broken apart and reassembled under the impact of this force, as if he had undergone a complete transformation, but he still survived.

Under this painful transformation, Qi Shi'an spent another three hours before he could completely refine the Golden Bodhi Fruit and its kernel, melting them into his flesh and blood to nourish himself.

Qi Shi'an felt incredibly warm inside his body. His previously violent secret power had calmed down and was enveloped by streams of Dao energy, which continuously circulated throughout his limbs and bones.

"Success!"

Qi Shi'an was extremely excited. If this ever-growing and ever-renewing secret power were used properly, it would be no less than a peerless treasure.

As one's cultivation level increases, one might even grow to the point of being immune to supernatural powers and impervious to all spells, like the Immortal King Wushang!

Chapter 96 Goodbye Little Demon King

"Where has that little devil gone? We haven't heard from him in so long."

"It's only been a year. He probably hasn't even used up all the resources he plundered from the two Pure Lands yet. Do you think he would show himself in the world? He's probably hiding somewhere cultivating."

“That’s true. But I heard that the Patching Heaven Sect and the Western Sect have gathered their other branches and are preparing to establish new sects. They have also invited deities from the upper realm to project down. It seems like they are about to make a move.”

Not far away, a group of people slowly walked towards Danxia Mountain. They were there to search for treasures, and along the way, to have some fun, they brought up the major events that happened last year again.

Now, all the forces in the Xuan Domain have strengthened their protective mountain formations. The Patching Heaven Sect and the Western Sect have even summoned more than thirty Venerables from other domains to rebuild their mountain gates.

Moreover, it was rebuilt on the original ruins, clearly indicating that they wanted to wait for the little devil to come back.

Just then, a violent fluctuation came from beneath Danxia Mountain, like an ancient ferocious beast awakening, radiating the power to shatter the heavens and shaking all directions, causing the entire Danxia Mountain to rumble and tremble.

"click"

As you can see, one huge crack after another appears, spreading across the mountain and rushing in all directions, and the entire mountain is almost disintegrating.

"What is that?!"

Someone pointed to a forest, their voice trembling slightly, and everyone looked in that direction.

There, auspicious light surged, like a sun hidden underground rising from the ground. The holy light surged and undulated like a river or sea, rushing up from all sides.

"Could it be... the birth of a rare treasure?!"

Overjoyed, everyone rushed off, enveloped in holy light. It had been thousands of years since the last appearance of this extraordinary treasure, and this time, they had finally witnessed its arrival.

Countless powerful figures within Danxia Mountain, seeing the cracks in the earth and the surging holy light in the distant forests, also rushed over.

"boom……"

Suddenly, a brilliant divine light erupted from the earth in the mountains ahead, and the overwhelming shockwave shattered half of Danxia Mountain, sending everyone flying through the air.

A figure burst forth from the ground and soared into the sky. When the divine radiance faded, everyone could finally see the figure clearly and was immediately taken aback.

"The Little Demon King?! What's he doing here?"

"The Demon King has been born and will surely slaughter all living beings! Run!"

In an instant, the entire Danxia Mountain was thrown into chaos. Countless people, upon hearing the name of the Little Demon King, immediately summoned their magical artifacts and fled into the distance without stopping.

"The treasure is mine!"

A venerable one descended from the sky. He was just passing through the area when he unexpectedly encountered the emergence of a rare treasure in Danxia Mountain, which he considered a gift from heaven.

However, he did not expect to see many people fleeing as soon as he arrived. He thought that his power had driven everyone away and was somewhat complacent.

When he turned his head to look at the so-called "treasure" in the sky, his expression changed drastically. Without thinking, he burned his essence blood and transformed into divine light to escape.

"Am I that scary?"

Qi Shi'an was speechless. He had only just left the pass, so why did people run away when they saw him?

He's such a kind and approachable person, why do people all avoid him like the plague?

During that year, after breaking through to the Perfection of the Array Formation Realm, he devoted himself to studying array formations and creating a set of array formations that suited him, in order to break through the limits of array formations.

He perused various scriptures from the Patching Heaven Sect and the Western Sect, combined them with the legacy of Supreme Luo Xiu, and then incorporated the three great Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques and the original runes of the Myriad Dao Tree into them.

Ultimately, he created the Myriad Paths Heavenly Demon Diagram as his main formation, using thousands of heavenly demons to evolve the ultimate killing formation, and officially broke into the pinnacle of formations.

Although the current Myriad Paths Heavenly Demon Diagram is not as good as Shi Hao's Myriad Spirits Diagram, as his realm improves and he continues to refine it, it will eventually transform into a great technique that can rival the Myriad Spirits Diagram.

Where should we go next?

Qi Shi'an stretched. This seclusion not only allowed him to break through to the ultimate level of array formation, but also consumed most of the rare and precious materials to nourish the Myriad Dao Tree.

Now, the Myriad Paths Tree has advanced, its trunk has grown larger, and its runes have become much more profound.

The effects of the Myriad Paths Tree Divine Liquid have been greatly enhanced, making it equivalent to a Heavenly Rank Saint Medicine, and even several times more effective than ordinary Heavenly Rank Saint Medicines.

However, the time required for the creation of the divine liquid is now very long, taking ten years to produce one drop, but this time can be shortened by absorbing more rare and precious materials.

He now possesses only six drops of the divine liquid, which is extremely rare.

Some of the fruits that have been borne are almost ripe, but they are all relatively weak treasures. The fruits under the Suanni treasure technique have also grown larger.

However, the fruits of the True Hou Treasure Technique and the Three Great Ten Fierce Treasure Techniques showed no signs of growth, only that their color had deepened slightly.

Qi Shi'an couldn't help but sigh, "The task is arduous and the road ahead is long..."

After he left, the news spread like wildfire throughout the entire Xuan Domain, causing a huge uproar.

"After a year, the Little Demon King has returned. I wonder which lineage he's set his sights on this time."

"The Patching Heaven Sect and the Western Sect will inevitably be the first to be targeted. They dared to establish new sects right after being destroyed. Given the Little Demon King's personality, he will definitely not tolerate it."

"Great, it's good to have some excitement. I'm already looking forward to the Little Demon King taking on all three sects on one mountain. That scene will definitely be spectacular."

In the entire Xuan Domain, most people went there just to watch the spectacle, since the Little Demon King wouldn't even look at their small sect's resources.

Many people hope that the Little Demon King will really destroy the three religions on this mountain, so that they can gain more benefits from it.

The commotion outside was well known to the three religions on this mountain, especially the Patching Heaven Refinement Sect and the Western Sect, who had a grudge against the Little Demon King and were the ones who most wanted to kill him.

However, they dared not send out any more disciples to search, for they were no match even for Venerables, let alone disciples below the Venerable realm.

They had no choice but to huddle inside the mountain gate, using a divine array to protect it, hoping to wage a positional war.

However, to the disappointment of countless people, Qi Shi'an did not go to the gates of the great sect. His purpose in emerging into the world this time was to find a safe place to ascend to the Spirit Realm from the Void God Realm.

He needed to make full preparations for advancing to the Venerable Realm, which was different from other realms, requiring the primordial spirit and physical body to reach a certain level.

When one breaks through to the Venerable Realm, the energy of heaven and earth will wash over the entire body, breaking the shackles of the array and reshaping the meridians and primordial spirit.

Therefore, the amount of rare and precious materials needed is enormous. If the breakthrough fails due to insufficient energy, it will damage the foundation.

By then, not only will a lot of resources be wasted, but the foundation will also need to be repaired and the wounds healed for many years before it can break through again.

Qi Shi'an's physical body has now met the standard, or even exceeded it, but his primordial spirit is still lacking. Therefore, he must go to a higher spiritual realm to hone his skills in order to achieve success in one go.

Qi Shi'an concealed his identity and changed his appearance all the way, taking seven days to return to the Butian Pavilion's base in the Xuan Domain.

When the elders saw him return, they rushed forward to greet him and were relieved to see that he was unharmed.

The pavilion master said with a look of relief, "You're finally back."

When they learned about what happened a year ago, they were both shocked and frightened, constantly worried that something might happen to this little devil.

This is their hope for the rise of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion; they cannot afford even the slightest mishap.

Ancestor Mu Yan shook his head helplessly: "You brat, you really know how to cause trouble. You dare to destroy two great Pure Lands. Aren't you afraid of being hunted down when you ascend to the Upper Realm?"

Qi Shi'an scoffed, "What's there to be afraid of? Once I'm strong enough, I'll destroy the lineage of the Upper Realm too."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent. Knowing the Little Demon King's temperament, they knew he was lawless in the lower realm, and he might cause even more trouble in the upper realm.

They can't control it anyway, so they might as well let it run wild.

After a lively conversation, Qi Shi'an entered the Realm of the Gods and arrived at the Initial Land.

He needed to find those two old fogies; only they knew where the Heavenly Road was.

The Void God Realm remains as bustling as ever, with many people every day, especially after his big fight with Shi Hao a few years ago, the cultivation trend has become even stronger.

"Do you know who I am? I taught both Little Stone and Little Demon King; they are my disciples."

"Don't you all disbelieve me? Go out and ask around; everyone in the Void God Realm knows about it."

An old man set up a stall and was surrounded by a young man who had just entered the Void God Realm with a single punch.

"This old man is trying to extort the precious jade again. What a fool he is!" A young man said with a look of disdain.

Grandpa Jingbi said righteously, "Hey, young man, don't talk nonsense. How could an old man like me possibly lie to anyone?"

"Looking across the entire Void God Realm, if you go and explore, whether it's the place where Little Stone became famous or the place where Little Demon King shone brightly, my most radiant figure shines there."

Upon hearing this, the boy asked with some suspicion, "Really? Has anyone heard this rumor?"

"What rumors? It's just those two old fogies bragging and spreading rumors all day long," an older man stepped forward to explain.

"The Trial Secrets of Little Stone and the Little Demon King, on clearance sale for 100 Refined Jade Coins! Hurry up and grab yours!"

On the other side was an old man with a bird perched on his shoulder, chirping.

A large number of young people surrounded them. They were new to the Realm of the Gods and knew nothing. Even though they had heard of the names of Little Stone and Little Demon King, they could not understand what the two old men were saying.

Some people even spent precious stones to buy the so-called "secret manual," and even when elders exposed it, they couldn't be persuaded otherwise.

"These days, there are still people who believe these two old fogies. The world is going to the dogs."

"There's nothing we can do. Little Stone and Little Demon King have risen to prominence at a young age and have become famous throughout the world. Back then, we did have dealings with those two old bastards, which made their fraudulent activities much easier."

"Back in the day, those two old guys were fooled by those two brats. I really miss those days."

"..."

Qi Shi'an stood at a distance, speechless at the sight. These two old bastards were indeed hard to change; after all these years, they were still swindling and cheating.

He squeezed through the crowd with brute force, a faint smile on his face: "Brother Bird, I'd also like to buy a manual."

Upon hearing this, Birdman felt the name sounded familiar. He looked up and saw a familiar face, then chuckled dryly, "There's nothing left to sell today, time to pack up!"

At the same time, Grandpa Jingbi quickly got up, rolled up his stall, and turned to leave with a very smooth and nimble movement.

"This young man looks familiar, who is he?"

"You're blind! This is the little demon king who wreaked havoc in two realms. What's he doing here?"

"It really is the Little Demon King! My goodness, I haven't seen him for years, and he actually showed up!"

"No wonder those two old geezers ran away. It turns out the real culprit came knocking on their door. Who told them to cheat people all day long? They're finally going to get their comeuppance."

Qi Shi'an's reappearance at the original site caused a great sensation, and everyone was excited. After more than three years, he has come again!

Chapter 97 The Road to Heaven

Many people were extremely excited to observe him so closely. He was so young, only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, yet he had already become famous throughout the world and was renowned throughout the eight regions.

When Qi Shi'an grabbed Grandpa Jingbi and Grandpa Bird, they first gave a dry laugh, then became frank, greeting each other warmly as if they had met acquaintances.
