Prehistoric: The female saint Shiji, brilliant and talented

Shi Ji attempted to continue refining the skeletal monster. This time, the skeletal monster did not stop him, and Shi Ji successfully imprinted the refining runes onto its body.

The skeletal monster began to weaken, seemingly having been completely suppressed. Shi Ji took a deep breath, finally relieved.

If this thing had continued to resist, I wouldn't have been able to refine it at all. Fortunately, it didn't put up any resistance, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Shi Ji obtained three immortal-grade storage rings from the skeletal monster, and he collected them one by one. He then opened the storage rings and found that they contained many precious items, such as various materials and rare treasures.

Shi Ji's face lit up with joy. These items were all accumulated by the skeletal monsters and were extremely valuable. This haul was quite substantial.

Of course, the wealth possessed by the skeletal monster far exceeded Shi Ji's expectations.

The old monster's storage ring contained a mountain of treasures that would drive anyone mad. If these resources were used properly, it's unimaginable how many masters could be cultivated from them.

Shi Ji took out a storage ring, opened it, and found a roll of parchment inside, which was densely covered with runes.

This looks like a "map," but it's unclear what it represents. However, since the skeletal monster preserved it, it might have some connection to the Bone Demon Sect.

Shi Ji was about to study the sheepskin map carefully.

However, at that moment, the parchment map suddenly burst into flames.

"What's going on?" Shi Ji was shocked and quickly summoned flames, trying to burn the sheepskin scroll to ashes to prevent future trouble.

To his astonishment, the parchment scroll was easily burned to ashes by the flames.

"The parchment scroll is destroyed!" Shi Ji frowned slightly, secretly guessing that perhaps there was some unknown secret hidden in the parchment scroll, but now that the scroll was destroyed, all the clues had disappeared without a trace.

He continued searching the skeleton monster's storage ring and found that there was only a fist-sized stone left inside. The stone was shrouded in chaotic mist, making it appear mysterious and unpredictable.

Shi Ji didn't recognize the stone, but the imposing aura emanating from it made him feel uneasy.

"What exactly is this stone?" Shi Ji wondered in surprise, and tried to get closer to it.

However, just as he approached, a loud bang was heard, and the fist-sized rock exploded.

Endless primordial chaos erupted forth, instantly sweeping towards Shiji.

Shi Ji quickly retreated several hundred meters, but still could not escape the invasion of the chaotic ancient energy.

His chest was pierced, his body was violated, and blood gushed out.

A deep roar suddenly resounded through the sky, and Shi Ji turned pale with fright, looking up at the void.

A terrifying being descended, its body a dark gold color, its eyes flashing with sinister and malevolent light.

"Dark Gold Evil Dragon!" Shi Ji's pupils contracted sharply.

The being before them was none other than the legendary Dark Gold Evil Dragon. It is said that the Dark Gold Evil Dragon's ancestor once entered the Immortal Realm. Although it was only a branch of the dragon race, this Dark Gold Evil Dragon was exceptionally powerful, possessing immense strength and wielding many inconceivable energies.

For example, the Dark Gold Evil Dragon possesses the Chaos Ancient Qi, and its greatest strength lies in manipulating the Chaos Qi to deal with enemies. However, its most formidable ability is not controlling the Chaos Qi, but rather attacking using its natural advantages such as claws, sharp teeth, and tail. This is what makes the Dark Gold Evil Dragon so terrifying.

Shi Ji looked at the Dark Gold Evil Dragon, while the Dark Gold Evil Dragon stared coldly at him.

In the eyes of the Dark Gold Evil Dragon, Shi Ji's cultivation was far too weak, like an ant, and it didn't take her seriously at all. Its target was the skeletal monster.

The Dark Gold Evil Dragon sneered repeatedly, mocking, "I already told you that I was dead, and that I died in that calamity, but you just wouldn't believe me. I hate you!"

"Hate me? You've hated the wrong person. What does your death have to do with me?" Shi Ji looked indifferently at the Dark Gold Evil Dragon.

"So you're still alive! Not only are you alive, but you've also obtained all the treasures of the Bone Monster. Do you know how many years I've searched tirelessly for the Bone Monster's legacy? I never imagined that today, I would finally find it. Your fate is destined to be tragic!" The Dark Gold Evil Dragon grinned maliciously.

It opened its mouth and exhaled a cloud of black energy. The light that the energy condensed into formed a jet-black scythe, as if it were formed by the combined souls of millions of the dead.

The black scythe slashed towards Shi Ji.

Shi Ji snorted coldly and swung her right fist at the black scythe that was slashing towards her.

With a violent collision, Shi Ji was sent flying dozens of meters. The dark golden evil dragon leaped up and pounced on Shi Ji.

"Light of Annihilation!" Shi Ji unleashed the Eye of the Gods.

The light of annihilation swept across quickly, directly striking the dark gold evil dragon.

With a muffled thud, the Dark Gold Evil Dragon was swept away by Shi Ji's World-Destroying Light, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The Dark Gold Evil Dragon was seriously injured, but at this moment, Shi Ji couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.

He discovered that the Dark Gold Evil Dragon's body had recovered considerably. The World-Destroying Light he had just unleashed was enough to destroy the physical body of a peak Emperor-level expert, but the Dark Gold Evil Dragon's body was completely unharmed.

"This guy's defense is truly astonishingly strong. As expected of the Dark Gold Evil Dragon, it's no ordinary creature." Shi Ji squinted at the Dark Gold Evil Dragon, secretly on guard.

I haven't encountered such a powerful creature in a long time.

Although the Dark Gold Evil Dragon is extremely terrifying, Shi Ji is not without any means of defense.

Shi Ji took out her stone sword and swung it fiercely at the dark golden evil dragon.

In an instant, the dazzling sword light illuminated the entire starry world.

The stone sword was faster than anyone could imagine, and in the blink of an eye it rushed in front of the dark gold evil dragon.

The dark gold evil dragon swiftly swung its claws and grabbed the stone sword that was slashing down.

With a powerful tear from its two incredibly sharp claws, the stone sword was instantly ripped into pieces.

After grabbing the stone sword, the Dark Gold Evil Dragon swung it forcefully, throwing it towards Shi Ji.

The stone sword streaked across the sky like a meteor and slammed into Shi Ji's chest.

The stone sword pierced straight through Shi Ji's chest. The stone sword was incredibly hard and remained lodged inside her chest after it pierced through.

Shi Ji let out a painful scream, feeling as if her whole body was about to fall apart. Her body flew backward uncontrollably and crashed heavily to the ground.

He struggled to his feet, revealing three deep wounds on his chest.

The Dark Gold Evil Dragon was too powerful; even with many magical treasures protecting her, Shi Ji could not withstand its attacks.

Moreover, Shi Ji lacked combat experience. Although she possessed some powerful techniques, her combat awareness couldn't keep up with the Dark Gold Evil Dragon's attack rhythm.

The dark golden dragon pounced again, its claws aimed straight for Shi Ji's neck.

Just as Shi Ji was about to perish under the claws of the Dark Gold Evil Dragon, at this critical moment, a powerful surge of energy suddenly erupted from a valley.

"Roar!" A roar of extreme anger rang out.

The terrifying aura grew stronger, mixed with a hint of ferocity and violence.

Shi Ji felt as if her soul was about to collapse from the shock of this aura, and dared not linger for a moment, she hurriedly fled into the distance.

The Dark Gold Evil Dragon also sensed the danger and dared not linger any longer, quickly departing.

In the blink of an eye, both of them vanished without a trace.

Shi Ji fled to a distant planet, where she sat cross-legged to heal her wounds. The terrifying attack from the Dark Gold Evil Dragon had nearly killed her.

Fortunately, he had a lot of healing pills on him. After swallowing them, Shi Ji quickly used her internal energy to heal her injuries, and before long, her injuries were completely healed.

Shi Ji planned to return to the Immortal Tomb Ruins; the place was far too dangerous, and she had to leave as soon as possible.

Half a month later, Shi Ji left the Immortal Tomb Ruins and returned to the South Sea World. After staying in the South Sea World for some time, she decided to go to the Great World of Kyushu. More than eight thousand years had passed since Shi Ji left Kyushu, and too many things had happened during that time.

Shiji was eager to know what Kyushu looked like now.

However, traveling from the South Sea World to the Great World of Kyushu is no easy feat. The South Sea World is separated from the other four great worlds by turbulent void currents, and it is situated at the intersection of the four great worlds, making it even more chaotic and dangerous than the other four.

Shi Ji decided to take the teleportation array to the Great World of Kyushu.

Kyushu was once the region where the Celestial Masters sect was located.

Shi Ji is no longer a disciple of the Celestial Masters Sect, but he still has feelings for it because his mother was once an ordinary disciple of the sect.

Of course, the Celestial Masters sect today is very different from the one of the past, and has become extremely powerful.

Kyushu also developed and became more and more prosperous, with its influence spreading to all parts of the country.

However, there are still some restricted areas in Kyushu.

These forbidden zones are extremely strange; even powerful emperors who enter them rarely come out alive.

Shiji continued on his way and arrived at the outskirts of an ancient city.

This ancient city is called Nanling.

The Nanling Mountains are teeming with monsters, including wild beasts, ferocious beasts, and poisonous insects.

This place is a paradise for cultivators, as well as a habitat for ferocious beasts, demons, and other races.

However, at the same time, there are a great number of ferocious beasts in the Nanling Mountains.

When Shi Ji arrived at the gate of Nanling City, she saw that the city wall was densely packed with cultivators who were maintaining order.

At this moment, a troop of cavalry galloped in, bringing a new route that allowed the army guarding the ancient city of Nanling to retreat ahead of schedule.

"Boy! Are you out of your mind?" A group of cultivators stared at Shi Ji, and the male cultivator in the lead shouted and cursed.

"I'm in Nanling on business, and I have no interest in getting involved in any disputes!"

Shi Ji said calmly.

"If that's the case, then get out of here!"

The others also revealed fierce expressions and surrounded him, wanting to teach Shi Ji a lesson and then drive him away.

Shi Ji frowned; these people's behavior was simply too much.

He didn't want to cause trouble, but these people kept pressing him.

Since that's the case, he decided not to be polite anymore.

Shi Ji reached out and grabbed a cultivator riding a tall horse, then gave him a hard shake, sending him flying.

A deafening explosion suddenly rang out.

The monk on horseback was thrown hundreds of meters away and crashed heavily onto a stone tablet.

"Ugh!" He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning deathly pale instantly.

"How dare you ambush me! Brothers, kill him!" The monk on horseback roared angrily, gripping a black spear tightly in his hand, the tip pointing directly at Shi Ji, his face twisted into a hideous and terrifying grimace.

The surrounding cultivators drew their weapons and surrounded Shi Ji.

Shi Ji remained calm, casually flicking her wrist, a ball of flame shot from her fingertip. The flame quickly flew out, transforming into a gigantic fire skull, baring its fangs and claws as it lunged at the group.

Seeing the fiery skeleton rushing towards them, the cultivators were terrified and hurriedly spurred their horses to gallop away into the distance.

Terrified screams came from behind.

One by one, the cultivators perished under the attack of the flaming skeletons, and even the steed was not spared, being burned to ashes.

Ignoring all of this, Shi Ji continued her journey toward the Great World of Kyushu.

Although the Nanling Mountains are fraught with danger, they are not without hope for Shiji.

Because there are many teleportation altars here, these altars can help cultivators teleport to the Nine Provinces.

Shi Ji spent ten thousand taels of gold to buy a jade slip, and then activated it. In an instant, a ball of light enveloped him.

The next moment, Shi Ji's figure disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was already in the Great World of Kyushu.

He arrived in Yunzhou, in the northwestern region of the Kyushu continent.

Cultivation resources are relatively scarce in the northwestern region of the Nine Provinces Continent.

However, Yunzhou is rich in spiritual energy, making it a good place for cultivation.

The ruling family of Yunzhou is the Lin family.

The Lin family is one of the most powerful families in the Nine Provinces Continent, and it is said that several powerful ancestors are lurking within the family.

The ancestors of the Lin family once followed a Celestial Venerable-level expert to conquer the outer world.

In the outer world, our ancestors established an incomparably powerful force called the "Lin Clan Ancestral Hall".

The Lin Clan Ancestral Hall is located within a sect called Yunxiao Sect. Like Jiuyou Palace, Yunxiao Sect is a top-tier power under the Heavenly Emperor.

The Lin Clan Ancestral Hall has a profound history, and even the powerful figures within the ancestral hall would not easily interfere in worldly grievances.

However, once the Lin clan ancestral hall is involved, they will not hesitate to intervene in secular disputes.

Just like back then, someone in the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall took a liking to the treasures of the Nine Nether Palace and wanted to forcibly take them away.

The higher-ups of the Nine Nether Palace naturally refused to agree, leading to a conflict between the two sides.

Both sides harmed each other's disciples and even sent experts to assassinate each other's high-ranking members.

In the end, the Nine Nether Palace lost three elders and also destroyed a treasure.

The Lin Clan Ancestral Hall also suffered heavy losses. Although no prominent figures perished, the battle shattered the prestige of the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall.

From then on, the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall began to suppress the Jiuyou Palace.

If it weren't for the Heavenly Emperor backing up the Nine Nether Palace, it would probably have been destroyed by the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall long ago.

The power dynamics in the Kyushu Great World are now incredibly complex.

Shi Ji had just arrived here and knew nothing about the specifics.

So he plans to find a reliable person to ask about the current situation in Yunzhou.

At this moment, Shiji heard several voices discussing something.

He turned his head and saw several cultivators gathered together, seemingly discussing something.

One of them said, "I never expected that the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall would adopt another child!" (End of Chapter)
