"Now is the perfect time to deal with it. My Great Reincarnation Technique can summon an army of undead to help in the battle, but the summoned army of undead is too weak."

Therefore, I must find a powerful enough ally. I wonder if I can harness the power of that stone tower?

Shi Ji pondered to herself.

He felt that the stone tower was extraordinary, and if he could harness its power, he might be able to defeat that strange being.

Shi Ji tried several times, but he was still unable to activate the stone tower. Moreover, he felt that the stone tower was very repulsive to him, and he could not use its power to deal with the mysterious man at all.

Left with no other choice, Shi Ji had to abandon her idea of ​​using the stone tower to kill the mysterious man.

He concealed his aura, stepped into the space-time tunnel, and sped towards its depths.

The spatial barriers of this world are not easy to cross, as some areas are filled with dangerous restrictions that require a great deal of effort to traverse.

When Shi Ji first entered this place, she encountered a lot of trouble.

They finally managed to get through those restrictions by sheer luck.

Although some restrictions were indeed troublesome, Shi Ji's methods were endless.

He set up concealment runes, elusive runes, and other hidden array patterns, as well as defensive array patterns, which could shield him from detection.

Therefore, Shi Ji successfully passed through layers of spatial restrictions and entered a mountain range.

Shi Ji felt that he might be able to find some clues in this mountain range, so he sped towards the interior of the mountain range.

Within the mountains, ancient trees reach for the sky, and monstrous beasts roam freely.

Every now and then, birds of prey would soar through the air, emitting sharp, piercing cries, before a flock of them would swoop down on the rocky shore.

These birds of prey are all powerful and ferocious beasts at the Saint Emperor level.

With a wave of his hand, Shi Ji collected the carcasses of those birds of prey into the stone gourd he had summoned.

He continued on his way when suddenly, the sounds of fierce fighting came from ahead. Hearing the violent tremors coming from that direction, Shi Ji quickened her pace and headed forward.

Soon, he witnessed an astonishing battle. Seven or eight terrifying beings at the Saint Emperor level were besieging and killing a woman in white.

The woman in white had disheveled hair and a deathly pale face.

She appears to be seriously injured.

"Gongsun Xian'er!" Shi Ji exclaimed in surprise after seeing the white-clad woman's appearance clearly.

The woman in white was none other than Gongsun Xian'er, whom Shiji had once known.

Gongsun Xian'er and Shi Ji were once enemies, and she even harbored murderous intentions towards Shi Ji at one point.

In a sense, the feud between Shi Ji and Gongsun Xian'er had reached a point where it was irreconcilable.

Gongsun Xian'er is simple-minded and extremely kind-hearted.

What impressed Shi Ji the most was that Gongsun Xian'er was once possessed by an evil spirit, which transformed into a terrifying being that attempted to devour her essence and blood and absorb her origin.

At that time, Gongsun Xian'er had already fallen into the abyss of despair.

It was Shi Ji who stepped forward and rescued her from the control of the evil spirit.

However, Shi Ji was not able to completely shake off Gongsun Xian'er's influence, and therefore, he always felt a little guilty towards Gongsun Xian'er.

Later, Gongsun Xian'er was injured by a mysterious person.

But Shi Ji knew that Gongsun Xian'er did not want to die; she longed to live.

Although Shi Ji understood that she and Gongsun Xian'er were destined to become enemies, even if she did not want to die, the two would eventually stand on opposite sides.

But in the end, Shi Ji chose to spare her life.

He felt that perhaps this was something he owed her.

After that, Shiji and Gongsun Xian'er never met again.

Gongsun Xian'er is hailed as the most beautiful woman in the Nine Provinces, and has countless suitors.

Shi Ji only glanced at her from afar. After that, as his cultivation level rapidly improved, Gongsun Xian'er was long forgotten in the corner of his memory.

He never expected to meet Gongsun Xian'er here again. The moment he saw her, Shi Ji felt an indescribable sorrow welling up inside him.

Shi Ji's gaze was fixed on the woman in white.

She is tall and slender with a graceful figure, possessing a stunningly beautiful face and a perfectly proportioned body, making her a true golden ratio.

Even with her hair down, her delicate face was still impossible to hide.

Shi Ji discovered that Gongsun Xian'er also had an exceptionally outstanding temperament. She seemed to be born a noblewoman, and she exuded a unique aura that Shi Ji had never seen before.

He speculated that this aura might be a unique bloodline aura belonging to the Gongsun family, representing the Gongsun family's lineage.

The Gongsun family is the supreme overlord of Kyushu, possessing endless wealth and resources, and their profound foundation is astonishing.

It is said that the ancestors of the Gongsun family descended from the celestial realm, thus the family's bloodline is exceptionally strong, capable of producing many extraordinary talents.

The woman in white exuded an eerie aura. Despite being severely injured, she remained calm and composed.

Shi Ji approached silently, preparing to kill her.

However, at that moment, the woman in white seemed to sense a subtle fluctuation.

She turned to look at Shi Ji, then said with a sneer, "You're really persistent! I thought this was an illusion, but it turns out it's real!"

A bitter smile appeared on Shi Ji's lips. Gongsun Xian'er still held a grudge against her, as expected.

He just wanted to cultivate in peace, but Gongsun Xian'er had her eye on him, which made him very frustrated.

"What right do you have to negotiate with me? Do you think I'm as easy to fool as I used to be?"

Gongsun Xian'er glanced at Shi Ji with a mocking look.

She always regarded Shi Ji as a despicable and cunning villain, while she herself was a noble and elegant fairy.

Therefore, Gongsun Xian'er despised people like Shi Ji from the bottom of her heart.

Shi Ji looked at Gongsun Xian'er with indifferent eyes, "Since that's the case, I have no choice but to take action."

Just then, Gongsun Xian'er instantly transformed into a cloud of white mist and vanished without a trace.

Shi Ji frowned. It seemed that the white-clad woman's identity was indeed extraordinary. She was not just a direct descendant of the Gongsun family; her background must be extremely remarkable.

Gongsun Xian'er couldn't have easily turned into white mist and escaped; what she just used must have been an extremely powerful movement technique.

"You escaped quite quickly." Shi Ji shook his head slightly. Although Gongsun Xian'er's movement technique was mysterious, he was more confident in his own.

Shi Ji quickly chased after Gongsun Xian'er in the direction she had fled.

Although the woman in white fled extremely fast, Shi Ji's movements were even more unpredictable and elusive.

He flashed forward, instantly appearing in front of the woman in white, and reached out to grab her. However, the woman in white once again transformed into a wisp of white mist and vanished without a trace.

"Hmm, this woman in white's movement technique is indeed extremely profound. What kind of movement technique does she practice?"

Shi Ji muttered to himself, his face full of doubt. But suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind: the white-clad woman's movement technique might be quite similar to the "Shrinking the Earth to an Inch" technique he had cultivated.

Shi Ji quickly tried to use the "Shrinking the Earth to an Inch" movement technique to verify whether her guess was correct.

Once the technique of shrinking the distance to an inch is used...

In an instant, Shi Ji's speed suddenly increased, becoming astonishingly fast.

He felt as if the space around him was distorted and deformed.

With a flash, Shi Ji disappeared from her original spot, and when she reappeared, she was already hundreds of meters away. Even she herself was greatly shocked by such speed.

Shi Ji looked at the Shrinking Earth to an Inch technique with utter astonishment.

The power displayed by shrinking the earth to an inch excited him greatly.

The value of this supernatural power is truly immeasurable.

Shi Ji felt her body become lighter.

He discovered that the "shrinking the earth to an inch" movement technique wasn't just for traveling.

It can even be used in combat.

Shrinking the earth to an inch is an advanced version of the ability to travel a great distance in a short distance. When mastered to its peak, one can travel thousands of miles in a single step.

Shi Ji plunged into the white mist once more. The area covered by the white mist was extremely vast, and he traversed continuously in the void.

The woman in white was also constantly changing direction. Although she was quite fast.

But they were never able to shake off Shi Ji's pursuit.

"The Ancient Lamp of Chaos!"

Shi Ji let out a low shout.

He then summoned the Chaos Ancient Lamp.

The Chaos Ancient Lamp floated in mid-air.

Shi Ji pinched the lotus-shaped wick between her two fingers.

With a flick of a finger.

Flames erupted instantly.

The lotus-shaped lamp wick flew into the air.

In an instant, a destructive aura spread out, and terrifying power swept across the heavens and earth. The power released by the Chaos Ancient Lamp was too heaven-defying, directly burning and collapsing the sky.

The flames released by the Chaos Ancient Lamp were extremely hot, enough to melt everything in the world; the terrifying temperature made it difficult to breathe. Even though the woman in white was quite powerful.

Even she could not withstand the attack from the Chaos Ancient Lamp, as terrifying flames rushed towards her.

The woman in white dared not linger for a moment and continued to flee into the depths of the mountains and forests.

"You can't escape."

Shi Ji strode forward and quickly caught up with the woman in white.

The white-clad woman's face grew increasingly grim, and finally, her body was enveloped by the flames of the Chaos Ancient Lamp.

It was burned to ashes by the flames.

After the woman in white died, a massive array appeared in the mountains. Shi Ji entered the array and began searching for treasures.

Several crystals were found within the formation, each covered with densely packed runes.

"It's actually the legendary Immortal Jade Stone."

These crystals are indeed fairy jade.

Immortal jade can assist cultivators in their practice and elevate their soul level, with extremely amazing effects.

This thing is extremely rare and precious.

Shi Ji put a piece of immortal jade into her storage ring. Besides this piece of immortal jade...

He did not take the other two pieces.

Shi Ji planned to take these two pieces of immortal jade stones out and present them to her master, Lu Yunxuan, so that he could study them and discover the secrets they held.

Why did Master Lu Yunxuan suddenly perish back then? Was it related to these immortal jade stones?
Many questions arose in Shi Ji's mind.

He examined the body carefully but found nothing else on the white-clad woman's remains.

"She's so poor, she doesn't even have a storage ring. I wonder if she's so broke that she doesn't wear one, or if she simply doesn't need one?"

Shi Ji stroked her chin and muttered to herself.

If that's the case.

That woman's wealth was truly astonishing.

This woman is no ordinary person; she should not be provoked lightly.

After leaving the mountains, Shi Ji returned to the inn.

He took out the purple jade pendant, which contained a wisp of the white-clad woman's remnant soul.

He planned to use this remnant soul to read her memories.

However, Shi Ji did not use it immediately.

After all, the woman in white was incredibly powerful in life, something Shi Ji knew all too well.

If her remnant soul were to turn against him, he would probably be in grave danger.

This is no joke.

We must be extremely careful; if we make a mistake, the consequences could be disastrous.

Therefore, Shi Ji decided to adjust her own condition before carrying out this work.

The next morning.

Shi Ji then went to the imperial city to find the white-robed old monk.

The old monk in white robes lived in a courtyard outside the palace.

When Shiji arrived outside the courtyard.

The door to the old monk's room was already open.

"Greetings, Holy Monk!"

Shi Ji bowed to the white-robed old monk with clasped hands.

The old monk in white robes smiled and said, "Young friend, please come in!"

Shi Ji entered the room and sat down opposite the old monk in white robes.

The old monk in white robes asked, "May I ask what brings you to visit this humble monk today, young friend?"

Shi Ji smiled and said, "I have always enjoyed making friends, so I came here specifically to get to know you, Holy Monk, and hope to become friends despite our age difference!"

Upon hearing Shi Ji's words, the white-robed old monk couldn't help but roll his eyes.

He said calmly, "Young friend, you are so hospitable. If I were to refuse, wouldn't I seem unreasonable?"

Hearing the white-robed old monk's words, Shi Ji cursed the old fellow inwardly for being cunning, but said aloud, "Hahaha, Holy Monk, you're so humorous!"

The white-robed old monk asked, "May I ask what level of cultivation you have reached, young friend?"

Shi Ji replied, "Peak of the Emperor Realm!"

With that, he waved his right hand lightly, and a suit of armor appeared out of thin air.

This armor exudes a cold and evil aura.

This armor should be classified as a demonic weapon.

"This armor is called the Black Dragon Battle Armor. It has extremely strong defensive capabilities and contains the power of a black dragon. Young friend, why don't you try it on!"

Shi Ji nodded, then put on the battle armor and activated the Black Dragon Battle Armor by channeling her own power.

In an instant, the Black Dragon Armor unleashed a blazing light.

A black dragon phantom materialized and coiled around Shi Ji.

"Huh, this armor seems to have some peculiar abilities!" Shi Ji's face showed surprise.

The aura emanating from the Black Dragon Battle Armor was far too powerful, its strength far exceeding expectations.

"Young friend, your physical body is extraordinary. This armor will indeed be of some help to you!"

The white-robed old monk said, then added, "This battle armor contains a portion of the Black Dragon's power, so the cultivator who wears it can use the Black Dragon's power to enhance the various supernatural abilities they use. In this way, the power of these supernatural abilities will be greatly enhanced!"

Shi Ji suddenly realized.

"Thank you, Holy Monk, for gifting me this armor!"

Shi Ji cupped his hands to the white-robed old monk and said, then his gaze fell on the wine gourd hanging from the old monk's waist. He said with a grin, "Holy monk, are you planning to drink some wine? I wonder if this jar of monkey wine will meet your standards?"

The white-robed old monk said, "Monkey wine is a fine product; this humble monk is in dire need of it!"

After saying this, the white-robed old monk opened the wine pot and took a sip.

Then, he exclaimed with admiration, "Fine wine, fine wine! What kind of monkey wine is this? Could it be the legendary monkey wine aged over three thousand years?"

Monkey wine is a fine wine that has been brewed over a period of three thousand years.

The price is extremely high.

Even many powerful figures at the Saint Venerable realm find it difficult to obtain monkey wine aged over three thousand years. (End of Chapter)
