"What? You're kidding, right?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Aotian and Li Xiue widened their eyes and looked at Shi Ji.

"This is no joke! If we want to attack the Heavenly Realm, we must get the support of the Heavenly Court. As you know, the Heavenly Court is now ruled by the Four Great Immortal Sects, and the Four Great Immortal Sects are allies of the Heavenly Realm."

"If the Heavenly Court opposes it, it will be extremely difficult for us to overthrow it."

Shi Ji said, "Father, I know this matter is extremely difficult, which is why I am thinking of winning over the power of the Heavenly Realm. If we can win over the power of the Heavenly Realm, then even if the four great immortal sects unite to deal with us, we will be able to resist them."

Lin Aotian said, "This is no joke. The Heavenly Realm is far too powerful for us to resist. Even if the Heavenly Realm has no defenses, it is an impossible task for the eight of us to destroy it."

Shi Ji said, "Of course I know how powerful the Heavenly Realm is, so I will not directly attack it. I need to gradually dismantle its power."

Upon hearing Shi Ji's words, Lin Aotian's spirits lifted.

This plan is absolutely insane.

It's like playing with fire and getting burned; one wrong move and it could lead to utter ruin.

But Lin Aotian trusted his son completely.

Therefore, he did not dissuade Shiji, but only instructed him to be careful in everything and never act rashly.

Although Lin Aotian did not offer to help Shi Ji.

But he also hoped that Shiji would not venture into the celestial realm lightly, no matter what.

Because he feared that Shiji would die in the heavens.

"Father! Mother! Don't worry, I will definitely keep myself safe!" Shi Ji said firmly.

Lin Aotian earnestly advised, "Some things, don't rush into making decisions; think thrice before you act!"

Shi Ji nodded solemnly, then bid farewell to her parents and returned to her residence to continue her secluded cultivation.

Shi Ji had no intention of sitting idle; he planned to break through to the Quasi-Immortal realm in one fell swoop. Now that he was already at the fourth level of the Emperor realm, breaking through to the Quasi-Immortal realm was just a natural progression for him.

Shi Ji took out a magic pill and swallowed it without hesitation.

He began to concentrate on refining the medicinal power of the elixir within his body. Gradually, the magical power within him began to transform, gradually turning into immortal power.

Around his body, vortexes of magical power continuously emerged, spinning faster and faster, eventually converging into a powerful storm vortex.

The roar reverberated through the void, and Shi Ji's body emitted violent fluctuations, as if it were about to explode at any moment.

But in the end, Shi Ji successfully condensed her magical power into immortal power.

He let out a long breath, slowly opened his eyes, his face beaming with ecstatic joy. His magical power had successfully transformed into immortal power, meaning he had taken another giant step closer to truly entering the immortal realm.

Shi Ji concealed her aura and then walked away into the distance.

He flew through the mountains and forests, a vast and boundless mountain range with trees soaring into the clouds and reaching the sky.

Shi Ji stopped beside an ancient tree and immediately began to circulate her profound inner energy.

In an instant, his blood boiled, and terrifying auras surged from his veins.

Thunderous roars emanated from his body, as if a torrent was brewing.

Once this torrent fully erupts, Shiji's combat power will reach an incredible level.

After cultivating inside the Eastern Emperor Bell for over three hundred years, Shi Ji comprehended three kinds of magical power.

The first type is the power of chaos, which contains the power to destroy the world;
The second type is the power of life, full of vitality and amazing strength;

As for the third type, it is the power of creation, which is similar to the first two.

The power of creation contains immense vitality; mastering it can rapidly heal injuries and even quickly regenerate damaged organs.

Back then, inside the Eastern Emperor Bell, Shi Ji was able to recover from her injuries thanks to the powerful magic of creation.

The power of creation is so wondrous that Shiji naturally wanted to gain a deeper understanding of it.

He carefully sensed the characteristics of the power of creation, and after several days, he finally figured out its secrets.

Shi Ji began cultivating the power of creation, activating it, and attempting to refine it.

A day later, his brow split open, his soul left his body, and with a flash of light, a Creation Immortal Sword appeared.

This immortal sword is the very treasure that Shi Ji brought from the Great World of Kyushu back then.

Shi Ji muttered to herself, her magical power enveloping the Creation Immortal Sword, and began to absorb the creative magical power within it.

Soon, he completely refined the creation magic power inside the Creation Immortal Sword.

Next, he used his magical powers to begin transforming his body, bones, internal organs, and even his soul.

When the power of creation began to transform itself, Shi Ji's body underwent a miraculous metamorphosis.

He opened his eyes, his gaze deep and sharp.

He stood up, stretched his limbs, and his bones cracked like popping beans.

Shi Ji felt full of energy, as if she had inexhaustible strength.

"This feeling is amazing! The power of creation is truly incredible!" Shi Ji couldn't help but exclaim excitedly to himself. If he didn't possess the power of creation, he would probably still be at the Emperor level, and breaking through to the Immortal level would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

The growth of one's cultivation level requires not only the accumulation of a long period of time, but also the comprehension of higher-level immortal techniques or laws.

Shi Ji's breakthrough, however, seemed to come naturally, as if it were a natural progression.

Of course, Shi Ji knew in her heart that this was not only because of his hard work, but also because he possessed incredibly strong potential.

He cultivates the Path of Domination, a path that destined him for extraordinary achievements.

It is precisely because of this that Shi Ji was able to cross several major realms in such a short period of time.

If it were someone else, it would take countless years to break through to the Quasi-Immortal realm.

But Shi Ji is different; he has the blessing of great fortune, which is why he was able to break through to the Quasi-Immortal realm in a short period of time.

Moreover, Shi Ji's cultivation of the Dominator Path made him feel that it might be a path against the heavens.

Of course, Shi Ji would not easily try this path against the heavens, because if he failed, he would vanish into thin air, leaving nothing behind.

Shi Ji continued to traverse the mountains and forests, searching for a new cave dwelling, preparing to continue his cultivation journey.

A horde of ferocious beasts surged forward like a tidal wave, but Shi Ji remained calm. With a casual punch, the wind howled, instantly blasting the beasts to pieces, turning them into pools of minced meat.

He flashed past in a flash.

After Shi Ji had traversed several dense jungle areas, a violent collision suddenly erupted ahead. Looking closely, Shi Ji saw a colossal figure locked in fierce combat with a woman dressed in black. That woman was none other than the witch Zi Yuan.

Shi Ji was startled, never expecting to encounter Zi Yuan here.

At this moment, Zi Yuan was locked in a fierce battle with a powerful and ferocious bird. The bird was exceptionally fierce, with claws as sharp as knives and covered with sharp barbs.

The ferocious bird opened its massive jaws and spewed out a terrifying divine fire, which burned towards the purple mandarin duck.

With agile movements, Zi Yuan unleashed a powerful divine ability—the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Finger. With a light tap of her fingertip, a mysterious force instantly struck the ferocious bird, repelling it.

"Let's join forces!" Shi Ji thought to herself, intending to observe the attack methods and defensive capabilities of this ferocious bird first.

The battle resembled a tug-of-war, with both sides trading blows and remaining deadlocked.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Shi Ji sat cross-legged in mid-air, closed her eyes and concentrated, silently circulating the Dao of Domination, sensing all the changes around her.

Just then, the ferocious bird suddenly let out an angry roar, as if it had realized its weakness—the tip of its tail.

The ferocious bird moved swiftly, rushing towards the purple mandarin duck, intending to pierce her body with the tip of its tail.

Zi Yuan sneered, her figure flashing as she struck the tip of the ferocious bird's tail with a palm. However, the tip of the bird's tail was exceptionally hard, snapping Zi Yuan's arm in two, and blood stained her sleeve.

However, Zi Yuan used the rebound force from the broken tail tip of the ferocious bird to quickly retreat and avoid the fatal blow from the bird's tail tip.

Zi Yuan's figure flickered, and she quickly flew away into the distance.

Upon seeing this, Shi Ji quickly followed, worried that Zi Yuan might be in danger, and decided to protect her secretly.

During this chase, the two flew for seven or eight thousand miles before finally entering a deep canyon.

Strangely, the ferocious bird did not pursue them further, as if it had some reservations.

Shi Ji was slightly surprised. He looked around and found many skeletons in front of him.

"Whose remains are those?" Shi Ji frowned, a sense of foreboding rising in her heart.

He was highly focused and carefully approached the corpses of the dead monks.

Shi Ji saw that the dead monks were all dressed in the same clothes, and their deaths were gruesome. Each corpse was covered with teeth marks.

He carefully examined the relics of these cultivators and, in addition to storage rings, storage magic treasures, and pills, he also found a token.

One token was branded with a ferocious wolf, while the other token was branded with a celestial lotus.

"What are these things?" Shi Ji wondered, examining the two tokens.

Suddenly, his expression darkened, for he sensed an extremely malevolent power within the two tokens. Shi Ji quickly sealed the tokens' aura and then took out the Three Pure Ones Talisman.

He activated the Three Pure Ones Talisman, and a powerful force was immediately released, enveloping Shi Ji's body.

The power of the Three Pure Ones Talisman shocked Shi Ji. As expected of the fourth-ranked treasure in all the heavens and myriad realms, it was truly extraordinary.

That power isolated Shiji from the outside world, giving him a strange sense of security.

"What are these things?" Shi Ji muttered to himself, then looked at the dead cultivators with an indifferent expression. He had never seen these dead cultivators before, nor did he know their origins.

These dead cultivators seemed to have been dead for a long time; their bodies had dried out, and the surrounding vegetation had long since withered and rotted.

Shi Ji guessed that the reason these cultivators died here was probably related to those ferocious birds.

He looked around and saw that some ferocious birds had dragged the corpses of the cultivators together and were beginning to devour their flesh and blood.

"Are these ferocious birds man-eating cultivators?" Shi Ji's expression turned serious.

What are the origins of these ferocious birds? Why are they so vicious?

Shi Ji did not approach these ferocious birds rashly, for they were too strange and unknown what secrets they concealed. He chose to lie low and wait for an opportunity.

About three days later, the ferocious birds finally stopped gnawing on the corpses. The skin of the corpses had been completely devoured, leaving only bare bones.

The ferocious bird picked up a jade tube and flew away into the distance.

"Could there be something recorded inside that jade tube?" Shi Ji's heart stirred, and a look of delight appeared on his face. He followed silently.

This scene naturally did not escape Zi Yuan's eyes. She saw the ferocious bird's actions and couldn't help but frown slightly, wondering what exactly was recorded in that jade tube that made the ferocious bird so excited.

Its gaze was fixed on a blue fairy lotus that emitted a strange light.

The celestial lotus was surrounded by a faint blue halo, making it appear both mysterious and captivating.

Shi Ji couldn't help but take a deep breath, secretly wondering that this fairy lotus must be extraordinary, otherwise it wouldn't have attracted that extremely fierce bird.

The ferocious bird flapped its wings and flew high, heading straight for the celestial lotus. Its gaping maw seemed to want to uproot the entire lotus.

However, it clearly underestimated the power of the celestial lotus. Just as it was about to touch the celestial lotus, the lotus suddenly unleashed a powerful burst of lightning.

The bolt of lightning struck the ferocious bird like a raging dragon, instantly scorching its feathers black.

The ferocious bird let out a mournful cry and retreated rapidly, clearly intimidated by the power of the immortal lotus.

Shi Ji was also stunned. He did not expect that this seemingly delicate fairy lotus would have such terrifying power, which even a ferocious bird at the quasi-immortal level could not withstand.

Just then, the celestial lotus suddenly transformed into a stream of light and flew towards Shi Ji, arriving beside him in the blink of an eye.

"You...know me?" Shi Ji asked in surprise. He carefully examined the fairy lotus and found that it did not belong to any known living being, but was more like a plant with a spirit.

The fairy lotus emitted a series of strange sounds, seemingly responding to Shi Ji.

"So you really do know me." Shi Ji suddenly realized, recalling an incident from when he first entered the extraterrestrial star world.

At that time, he was passing through a desolate universe when he happened to save an injured child.

And that child was none other than the peculiar fairy lotus standing before them.

Although Xianlian was seriously injured at the time, Shiji still spent a lot of resources to heal her.

Xianlian expressed her deep gratitude to Shiji, but Shiji knew nothing about her origins.

Later, the fairy lotus mysteriously disappeared, and I never expected to meet her here again today.

"Why have you come to this place? Is there some secret hidden in this mountain range?" Shi Ji asked suspiciously.

The fairy lotus continued to chirp, but Shi Ji was completely confused and couldn't understand what it meant at all.

Just then, Zi Yuan flew over. She seemed to see through Shi Ji's confusion and said, "Husband, do you want to ask about this immortal lotus? Perhaps I can communicate with it."

The Purple Mandarin Duck is a manifestation of the Immortal Lotus, and perhaps it can truly resonate with this Immortal Lotus.

She listened carefully to the fairy lotus's voice for a while, then said, "It means that the legacy of a terrifying being is hidden within this mountain range." (End of Chapter)
