Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border

"That thing is too heavy and too cumbersome to use. I threw it away a long time ago," Ice Cold Venerable replied calmly.

"What?! You threw it away?! Where did you throw it?!" Ying Zheng asked instinctively in a panic.

"It's right outside the Hongmeng Grand Array in the void, what's your hurry? Such a huge Supreme Palace, are you afraid of losing it?" said the Ice Cold Supreme.

"You can throw that thing anywhere and you don't have to worry about it disappearing. Because in this primordial universe, the number of people who can carry it can be counted on one hand."

"It's so heavy that no one would ever want to use it as their natal magic weapon; at most, they'd use it as a boat!"

"If it were in the river of time, the impact of the river of time might be able to move it, otherwise, it would be too tiring to use it to hit someone with my own strength!"

"Of the ten items, the other nine are somewhat useful, but this one is really useless."

Faced with the words of the Ice Cold Supreme, Ying Zheng felt quite helpless.

He couldn't help but silently mourn for the Supreme Hall.

"What exactly are the Ten Instruments?" Ying Zheng asked curiously.

"There are ten great artifacts in the Primordial Universe," Ice Cold Supreme replied. "But it's no use asking. All ten artifacts have already been divided up, except for the Supreme Palace."

"Oh," Ying Zheng said sullenly.

After exchanging a few words with the Ice Cold Supreme, Ying Zheng left.

However, seeing the calm and collected demeanor of the Ice Cold Venerable, he felt much more at ease.

Although the Ice Cold Sovereign appears extremely cold and gives off an aura of unapproachability, Ying Zheng actually found her to be very approachable. Moreover, she has a somewhat carefree personality and doesn't take things too seriously.

To put it simply, they are somewhat oblivious and carefree.

For billions of years, the Vermilion Bird Spirit Platform Star Region has not offered any assistance to Hongmeng City. Ying Zheng guessed that the problem likely lay with the Ice Cold Supreme.

It is very likely that Immortal Venerable Hongluo entrusted the Vermilion Bird Spirit Platform Star Region to Immortal Venerable Binghan, and then she really dragged her own dojo to the Vermilion Bird Spirit Platform Star Region, where she stayed for hundreds of billions of years.

"What a simpleton," Ying Zheng muttered to himself.

"If you speak ill of me again, I'll beat you up." The voice of the Ice Cold Supreme suddenly rang in Ying Zheng's mind.

Ying Zheng: "Uh..."

Besides taking a stroll around the outermost edge of the formation, Ying Zheng also created a clone to visit his "little friends" in the Origin Realm at various parts of the formation.

The grand formation guarded by Shi Mang was not far from Ying Zheng, just a little behind him. Nuwa and Jiu Lu, on the other hand, were guarding a more distant part of the Hongmeng Grand Formation.

It was quite a hassle for Ying Zheng's avatar to travel there.

Because it's impossible to wander around randomly within the great formation, one must proceed along the designated passages within the formation.

Upon arriving at Nuwa's location, Ying Zheng also sensed that the pressure there was minimal. For billions of years, virtually no supreme beings in this area had perished. Youhan and the Nine Realms also guarded this location.

In this way, Ying Zheng was relieved.

Moreover, coming to the Hongmeng Grand Array is not all hardship.

Those powerful Star Lords would occasionally send out their avatars to preach.

The supreme beings guarding the great formation can also send their respective clones to listen to the lecture.

Overall, Hongmeng City offers a fairly free environment. However, each individual must guard their respective grand formation and is absolutely not allowed to leave.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye, more than thirteen million years had passed since Ying Zheng and his entourage arrived in Hongmeng City!
Over these ten million years, things were generally peaceful. Although there were thirteen small-scale impacts from the other universe, no powerful beings rushed over; they merely bombarded the Hongmeng Grand Array through the cosmic passage.

All thirteen attacks were easily neutralized by the Hongmeng Grand Array, with only a few Supreme Beings unfortunately killed by the impact force that penetrated into the array.

Although it was a small-scale bombardment, the impact force of the combined power of the universe was something that ordinary Primordial Supremes could not even imagine.

Even the slightest aftershock has the power to crush everything.

The vacant positions were immediately filled by the Supremes who replaced them and repaired the damaged positions to their original condition.

Within the fifth level of the Primordial Glazed Pagoda, the Cosmic Furnace - Reflection, Ying Zheng had been cultivating for a very long time. His true form was constantly refined under the furnace's tempering, his physical body becoming increasingly condensed. Finally, after more than ten million years, Ying Zheng's physical body seemed to reach a critical point, and then he broke through!

There was no disturbance, nor any unusual phenomenon of the Great Dao trembling.

Ying Zheng, who had been sitting cross-legged, slowly opened his eyes and stood up.

Gale gale!
Every cell in his body seemed to be rubbing together, making a crisp sound like popping beans.

As he stretched his limbs, boundless power erupted from his body, seemingly affecting even the operation of the Cosmic Furnace Reflection.

Power, boundless and pure power, surged through Ying Zheng's entire body!

At this moment, Ying Zheng simply couldn't imagine just how powerful he was!
The only thing he could feel was that he had become the very embodiment of the word "strong"!

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on successfully breaking through to the fourth level of the Cosmic Furnace Technique!"

The system notification sounded in Ying Zheng's mind.

He subtly checked his attribute panel with his divine sense and found that the changes were not significant. He was still at the Primordial Supreme cultivation level, only the Cosmic Furnace Technique had changed from the third level to the fourth level.

The progress bar for the unreleased version of Hunyuan Supreme has already reached 8%!

At first, Ying Zheng thought that the progress bar might be related to his reputation, but now it seems that this is not the case.

Ying Zheng had no idea what the progress bar actually represented, so he simply put it aside for the time being and stopped worrying about it.

……

"You've mastered the divine skill!"

Ying Zheng's figure slowly emerged from the Hongmeng Glazed Pagoda, stood tall in the small world of the Lingyuan Immortal Palace, and burst into wild laughter.

His laughter echoed through the small world, startling the many flower fairies. They all emerged from their dwellings, looked up at Ying Zheng in the sky, bowed in unison, and exclaimed, "Congratulations, Your Majesty!" "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Hahaha!" Ying Zheng's laughter grew even more hearty.

But as he laughed, he suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"This situation makes me feel like I'm some kind of celestial being," Ying Zheng muttered to himself.

"There's nothing to do here, you can cultivate on your own," Ying Zheng called out to the many flower fairies.

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure vanished from the Spirit Source Immortal Palace.

The space inside the Lingyuan Immortal Palace is too small, and the world barrier is too fragile, so it is impossible to fully display one's skills here.

After leaving the Celestial Palace, Ying Zheng arrived in the void within the grand formation. Gazing at the layers upon layers of restrictions before him, he raised his hand and lightly flicked his fingers. In an instant, the void collapsed, chaos surged, and the various restrictions within the grand formation twisted and reversed under his control, as if they were toys he could manipulate at will.

After a brief period of activity, Ying Zheng stopped.

"Alas, what a pity, I still can't fully unleash my power within this great formation." Ying Zheng sighed helplessly.

His current strength is too great. If he were to make a move within this formation, he could probably shatter all the restrictions of the entire formation with just a few punches and kicks.

Unfortunately, he now bears the heavy responsibility of guarding the great formation. Although his Dharma body can leave, his true body cannot. As a result, he can neither go into the void and chaos to test his skills nor find a suitable opponent to spar with.

"You've broken through?" Just as Ying Zheng was feeling somewhat disheartened, a voice suddenly rang in his mind.

Suddenly, someone transmitted a voice into his mind, which startled Ying Zheng.

However, he quickly realized that it was the voice of the Ice Cold Supreme!
"I'm wondering if you've done something to me, staring at me all day long! Are you some kind of pervert?" Ying Zheng couldn't help but think to himself.

“You’re the one who’s a madwoman!” Ice Cold Supreme immediately retorted.

"Then why are you staring at me all day long?!" Ying Zheng questioned bluntly.

“That’s because…” Binghan Juezun was speechless for a moment.

"You really have been watching me all along...!" Ying Zheng was speechless.

"Who told you to keep talking bad about me!" The voice of the Ice Cold Supreme was almost frantic.

"Forget it! I'm not going to argue with you!" Ice Cold Supreme said sullenly.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly said, "Your strength is now vastly different from what it used to be. In terms of pure combat power alone, you have now reached the Great Perfection of the Primordial Supreme Realm."

"However, the others have simultaneously reached the Great Perfection level in both Dao Realm and Mana, while you have only raised your combat power to this level. Your Dao Realm cultivation is still only at the ordinary Hunyuan Supreme level."

"Hmm." Ying Zheng nodded.

Previously, when Ying Zheng saw Binghan Juezun make a move, he felt that he was unfathomable.

But after he mastered the fourth level of the Cosmic Furnace Technique, his combat power increased by more than a thousand times!
He now truly possesses combat power comparable to that of the Ice Cold Supreme.

If he were to unleash his full power, he was confident that a single punch could shatter several realms of the Origin Realm!
The likes of Xiang Cixian, Tai Xuan, and Kun Sheng are now utterly insignificant in his eyes.

He is now on a completely different level from them.

“Therefore, I have something I need you to do together,” said the Ice Cold Supreme. “This matter is very dangerous.”

"How dangerous is it?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Ten deaths without a chance of survival!" Ice Cold Venerable replied. Her voice was more serious and solemn than ever before.

"Isn't that just going to your death?!" Ying Zheng couldn't help but complain.

"Then let me ask you, are you going or not?!" she asked Ying Zheng.

"I'm not stupid, why would I go and die?" Ying Zheng replied.

His words had barely left his lips when the icy, supreme voice paused. Several breaths passed before her voice returned, completely different from the lighthearted tone of old friends, now cold and unfamiliar: "I guess I misjudged you."

After she finished speaking, her voice stopped abruptly.

"What the hell?! Are you out of your mind?! You should at least tell me what you're going to do! Suddenly sending me to my death, are you kidding me?!" Ying Zheng shouted.

The Ice Cold Supreme did not respond.

"Hey! Answer me! I know you can hear me!" After a while, Ying Zheng shouted again.

However, it seemed that the Ice Cold Venerable was truly angry and still did not respond.

"If you don't respond, I'm coming over!" Ying Zheng shouted.

"Hmph! You don't need to come over. Even if you do, I won't see you," Ice Cold Venerable said coldly.

"Alright, alright, I can't stand you anymore! Fine, I'll go! Since we're going together, it means you'll be going too. So what do I have to be afraid of? We might as well die together!" Ying Zheng shouted.

"Who wants to die with you!" Ice Cold Supreme screamed as if his tail had been stepped on.

"Hmph! Come here, let's talk about this face to face!" Ice Cold Venerable said immediately.

"Then what about my great formation?" Ying Zheng asked.

"You may leave one of your avatars to guard this place for the time being!" the Ice Cold Supreme replied.

“Alright.” Ying Zheng nodded.

With his current strength, the Dharma body he has created is indeed sufficient to guard this great formation for a short period of time.

Ying Zheng reached out and gently patted the back of his head. As he did so, an identical phantom fell from his body and into the void.

The illusory figure turned around and solidified in the blink of an eye.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" The avatar bowed to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng returned the bow, saying, "Fellow Daoist, you will guard this place from now on. I'm off!"

After saying this, Ying Zheng's true form transformed into a streak of light and vanished from the great formation.

After leaving the great formation he was guarding, Ying Zheng's true form headed straight for the position guarded by the Ice Cold Venerable.

The pressure in the outermost area of ​​the grand formation was astonishing. At the same time, a continuous stream of impact forces poured down, and an ordinary Primordial Supreme would probably struggle just to withstand the residual force from the formation. But Ying Zheng was naturally different now.

When he arrived here, the pressure around him felt like a gentle breeze.

As Ying Zheng arrived outside the great formation where the Ice Cold Supreme was stationed, before he could even send a message into the formation, a powerful force suddenly struck, instantly engulfing him within the formation.

Ying Zheng did not resist, but simply allowed this force to pull him slowly into the great formation.

As soon as he entered, he felt dizzy and disoriented. When his vision cleared, he found himself in front of a tower of ice.

This icy pagoda stood in the void of the great formation, radiating a bone-chilling cold that made people shiver involuntarily.

Ying Zheng subconsciously surveyed the icy pagoda. It had ten stories, soaring into the clouds, and was approximately 100,000 zhang tall. The pagoda's body was crystal clear, as if meticulously sculpted from millennia-old ice. However, the interior was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see inside from the outside.

Ying Zheng was certain that this ice pagoda was also a primordial treasure.

After examining the Frost Pagoda, Ying Zheng turned around, his divine sense spreading out like a tide, exploring the mysteries of this great formation. (End of Chapter)
