Prehistoric: The female saint Shiji, brilliant and talented

Although she knew that the Soul Devouring Queen was a curse master, Shi Ji was still extremely wary of her.

Shi Ji opened the jade tube and carefully examined its contents.

This passage is a cultivation technique.

It is called "Soul Devouring Technique".

In the past, Shi Ji had already mastered a set of "Soul Devouring Techniques".

However, this Soul Devouring Technique is far inferior to the Soul Devouring Technique of the Soul Devouring Queen.

The Soul Devouring Technique unleashed by the Soul Devouring Queen was absolutely astonishing.

Upon seeing that content, the Soul-Devouring Queen let out an excited howl.

The Soul-Devouring Queen rushed towards Shiji, then bared her fangs and claws and pounced on Shiji. Her tentacles instantly pierced through Shiji's chest, pinning her to the void.

"You brat! You're dead now! I'm going to devour your soul!"

The Soul-Devouring Queen roared venomously.

Shi Ji sneered repeatedly. She cultivated by circulating the Soul Devouring Technique, but the Soul Devouring Mother Queen's Soul Devouring Technique was no match for her.

A strange wave surged from the Soul Devouring Technique and invaded Shi Ji's mind, attempting to control her soul. However, the Soul Devouring Mother's soul was completely burned away by Shi Ji's soul fire.

Immediately, the Soul-Devouring Queen let out a scream.

After its soul was burned, it suffered severe damage.

"How is this possible?" The Soul Devouring Queen's face was filled with disbelief.

It couldn't understand how Shiji could withstand the attack of the Soul Devouring Technique.

The Soul Devouring Technique is the Soul Devouring Mother Queen's innate secret technique, possessing extraordinary power. She once relied on this technique to dominate the Heavenly Realm without ever suffering a defeat.

As for Shi Ji, with her mere Quasi-Emperor level cultivation, how could she possibly withstand an attack from her own soul?

The soul of the Soul-Devouring Queen gradually dissipated.

"You brat! Don't even think about devouring my soul! Even if I die and become a ghost, I will not let you go!"

Before her death, the Soul-Devouring Queen cursed Shi Ji viciously.

Shi Ji glanced indifferently at the Soul-Devouring Mother Queen, her face turning ashen.

"What a noisy piece of trash!"

Shi Ji annihilated the remnant soul of the Soul-Devouring Queen with a single palm strike.

"Huh, what is this?" Suddenly, Shi Ji frowned slightly. Before the Soul Devouring Mother Queen's soul dissipated, a piece of bone was left behind.

The bone was crystal clear and shimmered with a dazzling light, clearly not an ordinary bone. Shi Ji examined it but found nothing unusual.

She continued searching elsewhere, and eventually, Shi Ji found two more similar bones, one of which was as black as ink.

The other piece is as white as jade.

Shi Ji used her magic to wrap the pure white, jade-like bone and bring it out of her storage ring. She carefully examined the pure white bone.

The pristine white bones exuded a rich sense of life.

Shi Ji was secretly alarmed. Could this pure white bone be some kind of powerful bone from the Soul Devouring Mother Queen?

Shi Ji's face showed excitement.

She planned to study what special abilities this white bone possessed.

Shi Ji carefully kept the white bone.

At this moment, the corpse of the Soul-Devouring Mother Queen had also turned to ashes, and the fanged corpse had completely decayed.

Shi Ji put away the Soul Devouring Mother Queen's storage ring. This guy was quite wealthy and had a huge amount of various cultivation resources.

This applies to both spirit stones and elixirs.

The total is over 360 trillion spirit stones.

This is truly an astonishing fortune.

Furthermore, Shi Ji also found some key items in the Soul Devouring Mother Queen's storage ring.

Shi Ji emptied all the items from her storage ring.

A purplish-red flower floated in mid-air; it was actually a purplish-red lotus.

This crimson lotus flower is surrounded by terrifying poisonous gas, which is extremely dangerous.

Even an immortal emperor would surely die if he were to come into contact with this poison.

Shi Ji took a deep breath.

Her heart was pounding.

She knew this item was no ordinary thing.

Shi Ji tried to get closer to the purplish-red flower.

As soon as her body approached the purplish-red flower, Shi Ji felt a sharp pain spread throughout her body.

It was as if his entire body was about to collapse.

Shi Ji couldn't help but let out a shrill scream.

She quickly sat down to heal her injuries.

Only then did Shi Ji realize that the purplish-red flower was actually drawing her blood.

No wonder I felt such intense pain; this is the reason.

"What kind of strange flower is this? How can it be so bizarre?"

Shi Ji couldn't help but whisper.

She tried to struggle free, but the crimson flower held the rock firmly in place.

Dense runes emanated from within the purplish-red flowers.

Those runes pressed down on Shiji.

"This is bad, there are binding runes here!"

Shi Ji's expression changed drastically. When those binding runes enveloped her, she was immediately bound in place and unable to move.

The runes quickly spread towards Shi Ji's body.

Soon the runes were completely imprinted on Shi Ji's body.

"Young man! I set up these runes to prevent you from escaping! Now that you are trapped by my runes, no matter how powerful you are, you can forget about escaping."

After I refine your essence and blood, my combat power will reach an unprecedented level, at which point I will surely grind you to dust!

The sinister voice of the Soul-Devouring Queen echoed through the cave.

This creature is indeed cunning, having taken precautions in advance by deploying numerous runes.

They even set up these terrifying runes to trap Shiji here.

Shi Ji now only hopes that the Demon Lord can help her break these runes, otherwise she fears she will really perish here.

She began to think of a solution, but after a long time, she still couldn't come up with a feasible one.

These runes are so ancient that Shi Ji cannot recognize them at this moment.

"Holy crap, what are these runes?"

Shi Ji said helplessly that she tried to grab the runes with her dragon-elephant arms, but failed because each rune contained extremely strong destructive power.

Shi Ji couldn't help but smile bitterly. What should she do now?

She tried to activate the Eye of Reincarnation to destroy the runes, but failed again; the Eye of Reincarnation was powerful.

However, these runes are too ancient and strange, and Shi Ji is currently unable to destroy them.

"It seems that only by refining this bone can those runes be erased."

Shi Ji muttered to herself, then took out the Soul-Devouring Bone. She bit her finger and dripped her blood onto the Soul-Devouring Bone.

Then Shiji recited the incantation formed by the art of weapon forging.

When the essence of Shiji dripped onto the Soul-Devouring Bone, the entire bone trembled violently, emitting a terrifying demonic light.

Shi Ji rapidly rotated the Heaven-Swallowing Jar.

The magical light surged into Shi Ji's body, making her feel warm all over.

At this moment, Shi Ji seemed to have transformed into an invincible demon king.

Shi Ji threw more than ten punches and then more than ten palm strikes.

Every punch and every palm strike was terrifyingly powerful.

Finally, after Shi Ji had unleashed all her attacks, the runes inside the Soul Devouring Bone were completely obliterated.

After the runes covering the Soul-Devouring Bones disappeared, many mysterious patterns immediately appeared on the bones.

As Shi Ji gazed at the Soul-Devouring Bone, she felt a sense of disorientation, as if she herself had become unreal.

What's going on? Could that unreal feeling be an illusion?

Shi Ji frowned in thought, then suddenly her face lit up with joy, realizing that the illusory feeling she had just experienced was not an illusion.

Instead, his own essence, energy, and spirit were completely integrated into the Soul-Devouring Bones.

The Soul-Eating Bone seemed to have developed some kind of special connection with her.

"My essence and spirit have formed a mysterious connection with this treasure. If we can achieve a perfect harmony, will I be able to control this Soul-Devouring Bone as if it were my own arm?" she murmured to herself, trying to communicate with the Soul-Devouring Bone, but she failed because Shi Ji realized that she was far from reaching that level.

Shi Ji continued trying, but still made no progress...

A question arose in her mind: Could it be that something crucial was still missing?
After carefully examining the storage ring, Shi Ji found that there were no items that could meet the requirements of the Soul Eater Bone, and she couldn't help but purse her lips in frustration.

We must try again!
If you can't even do it yourself, then no one else can.

Shi Ji tried again, but still failed.

She persisted in her attempts, but ultimately there was no sign of a breakthrough.

Shi Ji sighed softly and stopped trying—since she couldn't make any progress, she would rest for a while and try again when she had recovered some energy.

She then walked outside, and just then, a message surfaced in her mind.

That information concerns the Soul-Eating Bone.

"The Soul-Devouring Ancestral Land of the Sovereign Imperial Clan contains a remnant of the Soul-Devouring Bone. If you can obtain this bone, you can use it to find the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Land!"

"However, the Soul-Devouring Bone is an extremely dangerous object within the forbidden zone of the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Land. If you enter it, you are very likely to lose your life!"

This is a message conveyed by the will of the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Land.

Upon hearing the news that the Soul Devouring Ancestral Land actually contained Soul Devouring Bones, Shi Ji's eyes suddenly lit up.

With the help of the Soul-Eating Bone, perhaps we can safely overcome all the dangers.

Furthermore, it is rumored that the Soul-Devouring Bone can summon powerful figures from the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Land.

Within the Soul Devouring Ancestral Land resides a Soul Devouring Ancestor, whose strength is unfathomable.

Shiji knew.

That ancestor of soul-devouring.

It has been gone for countless long years.

If the Ancestor of Souls were to awaken, he would roam the universe and be invincible.

But Shi Ji had no choice at this moment and had to take the risk, even if it meant facing a life-or-death situation, she still had to venture into the Soul Devouring Ancestral Land.

Otherwise, even if they leave alive, they will never obtain the Soul-Devouring Bone.

Shi Ji quickly walked out of the cave and saw an old man guarding the great array at the entrance of the valley when she came to the outside world.

As the old man's gaze swept over, Shi Ji immediately felt a chilling, bone-deep aura envelop her.

This old man was clearly extremely powerful, a quasi-immortal realm expert.

Shi Ji hurriedly bowed and said, "Greetings, senior! Junior Shi Ji has come to pay her respects!"

"Young friend, have you obtained the Soul-Devouring Bone inheritance?" the old man asked calmly.

Shi Ji nodded: "I have indeed obtained the Soul Devouring Bone inheritance!"

“Very good! Young friend, come with me!” the old man said.

"Where to?" Shi Ji asked in surprise.

“Just follow me, and you will understand when we get there!” the old man said.

Shi Ji dared not disobey and had no choice but to follow the old man.

She sensed that many deadly formations were hidden in the valley, many of which were incredibly powerful, but fortunately most of them had already been destroyed.

Otherwise, Shiji will surely suffer.

Soon, the two arrived at a huge stone gate. The old man pointed to the gate and said, "Pass through this gate and you can enter the Soul Devouring Ancestral Land!"

Shi Ji asked, "May I ask, senior, what is the current situation within the Soul Devouring Ancestral Land? Are there any other cultivators there?"

The old man shook his head: "I am the only one in the Soul Devouring Ancestral Land!"

Shi Ji looked surprised upon hearing this.

Doesn't that mean something?

Is the Soul Devouring Ancestral Land extremely dangerous?
"Senior, I don't understand! Why did you bring me into the Soul Devouring Ancestral Land?"

The old man said, "The Soul Devouring Ancestral Land has its own rules! After the Lord of the Ancestral Land fell, his remains were suppressed within the Ancestral Land!"

Those who gain the approval of the Soul-Devouring Bone are qualified to enter the ancestral land and seek out the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Spirit within!

Shi Ji hesitated, then asked, "Senior, is the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Spirit really that terrifying?"

The old man replied, "Of course! The Soul-Devouring Ancestral Spirit is practically indestructible. Over countless years, countless people have tried to hunt down the Ancestral Spirit and seize its essence! Yet, to this day, no one has succeeded!"

Shi Ji nodded slightly; she still had confidence in herself.

He then said, "In that case, let me experience the amazing skills of this Soul-Devouring Ancestral Spirit!"

She stepped forward, came to the stone gate, and pushed it open to enter.

The moment she stepped through the stone gate, she found herself in another space, with a scene of corpses piled up like mountains before her eyes.

These corpses exuded a sinister and terrifying aura, filled with endless resentment.

Amidst the pile of corpses, a man sat cross-legged on the ground. He was tall and imposing, dressed in a black robe.

He closed his eyes and concentrated, unaware of whether he was alive or dead.

But the man's corpse was chilling and terrifying, sending shivers down one's spine.

Shi Ji examined the man's remains.

Its imposing presence is so overwhelming that it's almost suffocating...

Shi Ji didn't know how to describe this man—his power and terror were beyond words.

This man is extremely ancient; his lifespan must be tens of thousands of years.

He was a supreme being throughout history, even though he has fallen.

It still possesses the power to destroy the world.

Shi Ji took out the Soul-Devouring Bone, and the sitting man suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes were deep and profound, as if they contained billions of stars.

The man stared at the Soul-Devouring Bone in Shi Ji's hand, then reached out his withered palm and grasped it.

A strange fluctuation spread instantly, and Shi Ji suddenly felt her whole body stiffen and become unable to move.

Followed by.

A skull flew towards her.

The skeleton transformed into a woman, her face as pale as paper.

Crimson tears of blood streamed down his face.

Its face resembles a ghost's face.

Shi Ji felt a chill run down her spine—the scene was too bizarre and shocked her.

The woman reached out and wrapped her arms around her neck, then bit down hard.

Blood splattered on the woman's body, but she showed no sign of pain.

"Soul-Devouring Ancestral Spirit, I am the new master of the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Land. I will surely help you find your clan, avenge you, and let you rest in peace!"

The woman smiled, released Shi Ji, and turned to leave.

Shi Ji felt weak all over and almost collapsed.

She gasped for breath and looked at the man in the distance: "Senior, who is that woman?"

The old man was silent for a moment, then uttered a number.

Shi Ji pressed further, "Who is the Soul-Devouring Grandmother? Could she be the original owner of the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Land?"

The old man said, "Grandmother Soul Devourer is one of the most illustrious ancestors of my Soul Devourer clan!"

"Ah, the Soul-Devouring Ancestor was actually a noble ancestor. I almost injured a descendant of my ancestor just now."

Upon hearing the old man's words, Shi Ji was startled and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed three times, saying in a trembling voice, "Please forgive me, senior."

"That's enough! I've let it go! You don't need to worry about your safety either, the Soul-Devouring Ancestor won't harm you! Although she's gone!"
However, her will is imprinted within the Soul-Devouring Bone, and only those recognized by the bone have a chance to obtain the treasures she left behind!

Hearing the old man's words, Shi Ji finally relaxed completely.

She asked, "Senior! Why is the Soul-Devouring Ancestor called the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Spirit? Could she be a special being? Or perhaps a being transformed from a divine weapon?"

“Indeed, she was originally a divine weapon! However!” The old man paused slightly and continued, “This weapon has lost its spirit, retaining only basic memories, and now it only remembers killing!”
Slay all living beings that come near!

"To annihilate all living beings that come near! Isn't that exactly in line with the characteristics of the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Spirit?"

“That is indeed the case!” The old man nodded: “In the past, the Soul Devouring Ancestral Spirit created the Soul Devouring Clan, but because the clan’s bloodline was too domineering, the Ancestral Spirit perished.”

The Soul Devouring Clan also perished, their ancestral spirit's body was absorbed by the Soul Devouring Bone, and their primordial spirit was sealed within the bone.

She hoped the power of the Soul-Devouring Bone could awaken her slumbering soul and allow her to return to the world!

"I see!"

Shi Ji nodded slightly.

At this moment, the Soul-Devouring Ancestral Spirit has disappeared.

Shi Ji felt as if cold, icy eyes were lurking around, watching her. (End of Chapter)
