Prehistoric: The female saint Shiji, brilliant and talented

Shi Ji laughed loudly, then manipulated the golden rune cage formed by the imprisonment talisman to suppress another dark demon.

Another dark demon was also firmly suppressed by the golden rune cage.

"Boy, I curse you to a terrible death!"

A dark demon roared venomously, casting a curse upon Shi Ji.

But Shi Ji didn't care at all. With an indifferent expression, she raised her right foot and stomped hard on the dark demon.

With a cracking sound, Shi Ji kicked the dark demon's head until it was smashed.

Immediately afterwards, he kicked and shattered the neck of another dark demon.

"How are you doing?"

Shi Ji looked at the Demon Lord; this guy's regenerative ability was simply too powerful. Even though Shi Ji had cut off a section of his tail, the severed area could heal quickly, and the limb would regenerate soon afterward.

Shi Ji couldn't help but take a deep breath. The Demon Lord's incredible recovery ability was truly shocking and terrifying.

Shi Ji took out the pill and handed it to the Demon Lord. After the Demon Lord refined the pill, his injuries were quickly healed.

“Let’s continue into the Gate of Heaven and Earth and look for opportunities,” Shi Ji suggested.

The Demon Lord nodded in agreement, and then flew towards the Gate of Heaven and Earth together with Shi Ji.

The Gate of Heaven and Earth exudes ancient, timeless energy, as if carrying endless secrets.

Shi Ji and the Demon Lord crossed the Gate of Heaven and Earth and entered an unknown world.

Surrounded by light, they appeared in a vast and boundless starry world.

This starry world is filled with stars, and all kinds of meteorites fly among them.

Deep within the starry sky, a gigantic star shines brightly, illuminating the entire cosmos.

"Could this be the legendary extraterrestrial world?" Shi Ji asked in confusion.

He and the Demon Lord gazed into the distance, when suddenly, Shi Ji pointed to the depths of the distant starry world. There, many stars twinkled, but within those stars lay an extremely terrifying and destructive power.

“It’s an asteroid belt!” the Demon Lord said in a deep voice.

Shi Ji frowned slightly, carefully observing the asteroid belt in the distance. The destructive power emanating from the asteroid belt was indeed terrifying. If he got close, he worried that he might trigger the unknown and terrifying power hidden within, which might backfire on him.

"Let's take a detour!" Shi Ji suggested.

Afterwards, Shi Ji changed her appearance and left quietly with the Demon Lord.

However, roars suddenly came from the meteorite belts, followed by a large number of meteorites flying out of the void of space.

These meteorites were enormous, as big as mountains, and hurtled toward Shiji and the Demon Lord.

"These meteorites look like shooting stars," Shi Ji muttered to herself.

The meteorite was incredibly fast, moving like lightning. In the blink of an eye, it flew in front of Shi Ji and the Demon Lord, charging towards them.

Shi Ji hurriedly unleashed the Dragon-Elephant Arm technique. This Dragon-Elephant Arm was a powerful technique that he had cultivated for a long time before comprehending.

When he unleashed this supernatural power, Shi Ji seemed to transform into a towering, majestic man. He stretched out his right arm and reached out to grab the incoming meteorites.

Shi Ji grabbed several huge meteorites in one go. He pulled hard, trying to pull them over. But the meteorites were too heavy to move, and he almost got hit by them instead.

"Damn it, I thought I had mastered a powerful technique, but it turns out it's useless against these meteorites. Looks like I'll have to rely on other treasures," Shi Ji cursed in frustration.

"Boy, don't waste time here. It's not too far from the Gate of Heaven and Earth. Once I've recovered enough, we'll enter the Gate of Heaven and Earth, and then we won't have to be afraid of the ferocious beasts here," the Demon Lord said.

Shi Ji nodded and said, "In that case, I won't get entangled with them."

Shi Ji activated the Great Destiny Technique, unleashing a surge of destiny power. He then imbued the Demon Lord with this power, causing the Demon Lord to instantly traverse the void and vanish without a trace.

Shi Ji then unleashed the Great Teleportation Divine Power, created through the fusion of the Three Thousand Great Daos. This Great Teleportation Divine Power was something he had just comprehended. After unleashing it, Shi Ji's speed was astonishing, and she vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.

After Shi Ji left, a terrifying monster flew out of the asteroid belt. This monster was enormous, like a mountain, and a hundred meters long. Its body was as black as ink, covered with scales, and it emitted a strong smell of decay. Every inch of its skin seemed to be filled with endless evil power.

"Screech!" The black-haired giant ape roared angrily, clearly chasing after Shi Ji and the Demon Lord. This was a terrifying being.

Shi Ji and the Demon Lord flew towards the distant celestial palace, but they never reached it. They encountered constant danger along the way, with falling meteorites continuously exploding. Shi Ji even witnessed firsthand the terrifying destructive power of the exploding meteorites inflicting damage on her.

This place is extremely dangerous. Shi Ji estimated that if it were any other cultivator, they would have perished long ago.

Shi Ji and the Demon Lord traveled together and finally arrived near the Immortal Palace. However, the Immortal Palace was shrouded in strange power, making it impossible to enter.

Shi Ji tried to open the barrier of the Immortal Palace, but found that she couldn't do it at all.

"What should we do? Are we going to be stuck here for a long time?" Shi Ji frowned slightly. He really wanted to rush into the Immortal Palace and get news about the Immortal Spirit Pearl, but he also knew that he couldn't break through the Immortal Palace's barrier with his own abilities.

"Let's go find that thing first," the Demon Lord said. The thing the Demon Lord was referring to was naturally the incomplete imperial weapon that Shi Ji had obtained.

Shi Ji nodded, and then flew with the Demon Lord toward the direction where the incomplete imperial weapon was located.

Shi Ji and the Demon Lord were both very fast, but after flying for half a day, they still couldn't get close to the incomplete imperial weapon. This place was too dangerous; a slight misstep could cost them their lives.

Shi Ji decided to give up for the time being and leave this horrible place. But just as he was about to leave, a group of terrifying creatures blocked his way.

These terrifying creatures were all made up of skeletons, countless skeletons forming a dense mass that blotted out the sky.

"This is terrible! These skeletons are not only numerous, but also incredibly powerful!" Shi Ji exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the skeletons.

The Demon Lord looked at the skeletons with a solemn expression and said, "Your strength is not bad, but these guys are stronger. If we deal with one of the skeletons, the others will definitely attack us without hesitation."

Shi Ji said, "Let's work together to deal with one skeleton, and you can handle the remaining four."

"Alright." The Demon Lord nodded.

So the two teamed up to fight one of the skeletons. After defeating one skeleton, they took on another and eventually escaped successfully.

The remaining three skeletons did not continue to stop Shi Ji and the Demon Lord from leaving, because they were well aware of their strength and would not gain anything if they insisted on keeping them there.

After Shi Ji and the Demon Lord left, they flew swiftly towards the Celestial Palace. An hour later, they arrived at the location of the Celestial Palace.

The gates of the Immortal Palace were tightly shut. Upon seeing this, Shi Ji couldn't help but frown slightly. He reached out and touched the gates; the patterns of the restrictions on them were deeply etched in his memory.

The restrictive patterns carved on the gates of the Celestial Palace contain sealing power. Without breaking this seal, one cannot even take a single step into the Celestial Palace.

"Let me take a look!" the Demon Lord said.

He took out an ancient compass, on which many mysterious patterns were engraved.

The demon lord began to circulate his magic power to activate the compass, attempting to unleash the restrictive power upon it.

However, after more than ten attempts, the compass remained dim and unresponsive.

The Demon Lord frowned and said in a deep voice, "The seal on this immortal palace is extraordinary. Even my supreme treasure cannot break it. Now, we can only see if you can break the seal. If you can't, then I'm truly at a loss."

Shi Ji took a deep breath, then quickly formed hand seals and unleashed the Heaven-Mending Technique.

As he cast the Heaven-Mending Technique, runes flew from his hands, swirling around him. Shi Ji continuously cast incantations, and the runes surged towards the Immortal Palace's restrictions. Accompanied by a series of cracking sounds, the seal began to show cracks, and its power gradually weakened.

Upon seeing this, the Demon Lord gasped in astonishment, utterly shocked. He had never imagined that Shi Ji possessed such power to break the seal of this celestial palace; it was simply unbelievable, a feat defying the heavens.

"Quickly, break the seal faster!" the demon lord said urgently.

Upon hearing this, Shi Ji increased the intensity of the Heaven-Mending Technique.

Once the Heaven-Mending Technique was fully activated, the seal was finally completely broken.

Shi Ji and the Demon Lord moved swiftly and flew into the Celestial Palace.

Shi Ji said, "Let's find a quiet place first to refine the Immortal Spirit Pearl."

An hour later, they found a secluded place.

The demon lord took out the Immortal Spirit Pearl and said, "Perhaps by consuming this Immortal Spirit Pearl, I can break through to the Quasi-Immortal realm?"

He shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's not that simple! If it were really that easy to break through, I would have taken that step long ago. Why would I have waited until today?"

Shi Ji nodded slightly, agreeing with what the Demon Lord said.

This Immortal Spirit Pearl truly contained a vast and pure soul energy. Shi Ji felt her soul ocean in her mind boiling, demonstrating the powerful medicinal effect of the Immortal Spirit Pearl.

Not long ago, Shi Ji's soul was severely damaged, but now it has been fully restored.

"Boy, don't be too happy yet. This jade pendant contains a curse. If you want to refine the Immortal Spirit Pearl, you must endure this curse. Once you endure it, you may fall into an eternal slumber and never wake up again!"

An old man suddenly appeared in Shiji's line of sight. He stood with his hands behind his back, looking relaxed and content.

When Shi Ji saw the old man, she was immediately shocked. This old man was actually the senior who had helped her remove the "curse power" from her soul sea.

"So it's you, senior! Junior Shi Ji greets you, senior!" Shi Ji quickly clasped her hands in greeting.

"No need to be so polite, young man. Our meeting is fate. This Immortal Spirit Pearl is a gift to you. I hope you can break through to the Quasi-Immortal realm as soon as possible!" the old man said with a smile, then threw the Immortal Spirit Pearl in his hand to Shi Ji.

Shi Ji opened her mouth and swallowed the Immortal Spirit Pearl.

As soon as the Immortal Spirit Pearl entered her stomach, Shi Ji felt a burst of intense heat erupt from within her abdomen, burning fiercely.

He quickly circulated his internal magic power to suppress it, but the flames were extremely domineering and could even burn his magic power.

Fortunately, Shi Ji possessed powerful magic and was able to barely withstand the attack of the flames.

Even so, Shiji still felt as if her body could be burned to ashes at any moment.

But he did not give up, gritting his teeth and persisting in using his magic to suppress the flames.

His forehead was covered in sweat, and he clenched his teeth.

It took Shi Ji a full nine hours to finally suppress the flames.

He opened his eyes, his face as pale as paper. This time, he had almost been caught off guard; fortunately, he reacted in time, otherwise he would have surely perished in the flames.

Shi Ji took out the Immortal Spirit Pearl and examined it carefully.

The Immortal Spirit Pearl quickly emitted a dazzling light, and the immense energy contained within it continuously flowed into Shi Ji's dantian.

Shi Ji felt her cultivation level improving rapidly, and she could even hear a booming sound coming from her dantian.

He felt he was about to break through his bottleneck.

As the energy within the Immortal Spirit Pearl continuously flowed into her dantian, Shi Ji's magical power became increasingly surging and vast.

He knew this was a sign of a transformation in his magical power.

Shi Ji was overjoyed and began her attempt to break through the barrier.

This time, he did not use the Dragon-Elephant Arm to suppress the terrifying power within the Immortal Spirit Pearl, but instead chose to rely on the power of his breakthrough to suppress it.

Within Shi Ji's dantian, the phantom of a giant ape appeared.

The giant ape phantom opened its blood-red maw and devoured the terrifying energy.

The terrifying energy within the Immortal Spirit Pearl had been completely devoured by the giant ape phantom.

At this moment, the phantom of the giant ape seemed to be about to solidify into a real body, lifelike.

"This energy is truly terrifying!"

Shi Ji couldn't help but take a deep breath, deeply shocked.

He stood up, clenched his fists, and felt an explosive power coursing through his body, as if he could shake the heavens and the earth.

He secretly speculated that if he threw a punch at this moment, he might be able to kill a powerhouse at the Emperor level.

Just then, footsteps sounded outside, and a woman walked in gracefully.

When the woman saw Shi Ji, she frowned slightly. She noticed that Shi Ji was covered in blood, clearly having just been in a fierce battle.

"Gongsun Yue'er greets Senior."

Gongsun Yue'er bowed respectfully to the old man.

This old man was Gongsun Yue'er's master; his cultivation was unfathomable and awe-inspiring.

Gongsun Yue'er felt both awe and admiration for her master.

"No need for formalities!"

The old man waved his hand and said with a smile, his face full of kindness.

Then he asked, "What's your name?"

Gongsun Yue'er replied, "Reporting to senior, I am Gongsun Yue'er. My master ordered me to guard the Immortal Spirit Pearl here."

"So you're a disciple sent by that old ghost Gongsun. That old bastard certainly knows how to train people. This Immortal Spirit Pearl is not bad. Come with me and leave this place!"

After saying that, the old man walked outside.

"Thank you, senior, for saving your life!"

Shi Ji bowed to the old man to express her gratitude, her heart filled with respect for him.

He sensed that this old man was no ordinary person.

Although Shi Ji could not see through the old man's cultivation level, he had a premonition.

This old man must be a terrifying being who has surpassed the realm of Immortal Venerable.

The old man said, "Young friend, there's no need for such formalities. Our meeting is fate." (End of Chapter)
