Shi Ji wanted to use the immense fortune within this egg to break through her bottleneck.

She plans to use the vast fortune within the egg when she attempts to break through to the Emperor Realm.

At that time, Shi Ji's cultivation level will be greatly improved.

Fourteen thousand three hundred and seventy-two years have passed.

Shi Ji felt that she had reached the threshold of the Emperor realm, so she stopped cultivating and put the giant egg into the stone box.

Then it got up and flew away into the distance.

Half a year later.

Shiji arrived overseas.

She landed on a desolate island.

This place is quite far from the mainland, but Shi Ji is powerful and has an extremely fast escape speed, so she was able to arrive in a short time.

"This place is quite nice!"

Shi Ji raised an eyebrow slightly.

The island is not particularly secluded, so Shi Ji has set up many powerful restrictions on it, which are difficult for even an Emperor-level expert to break through.

This is because the restrictions here are simply too powerful.

Shi Ji activated the formation and then sat cross-legged.

She took out the fairy herb she had obtained earlier.

Shi Ji swallowed the two Immortal Herbs.

They began to absorb the power of the immortal herbs.

The medicinal properties of the immortal herbs were indeed potent. Not long after taking them, Shi Ji felt a warm current flow into her body.

The warm current quickly neutralized the medicinal properties.

Then it transformed into a powerful medicinal force, beginning to expand Shi Ji's body.

I have taken many of these precious gems that improve physical fitness and enhance cultivation.

Therefore, she didn't particularly crave such a precious treasure as the Immortal Herb.

What she lacks most now is resources; only when resources are plentiful can she succeed.

Only then can one's cultivation level be improved rapidly.

Shi Ji refined all the remaining Immortal Herbs.

After the refining was completed, crackling and popping sounds came from Shi Ji's body.

Her barrier to power was shaken.

This is a sign of a breakthrough.

"I'm finally about to step into the Emperor Realm. All my efforts haven't been in vain!"

Shi Ji's face lit up with joy.

She could clearly feel that her combat power had increased several times over.

Moreover, her physique and physical strength also received a huge boost.

The current fighting strength of Shiji.

It is estimated that it has already reached the level of a five-hundred-billion-elephant arm.

Such combat power is nothing short of heaven-defying, even against a peak Quasi-Emperor or a half-step Emperor-level expert.

If Shi Ji were to fully unleash the power of the five hundred billion dragon and elephant arm, she should be able to contend with it.

What terrifying power this is!

Soon after.

Shi Ji breathed a sigh of relief as her cultivation stabilized.

This period of seclusion and cultivation has brought about a tremendous change in Shi Ji's combat strength.

It's not just about combat strength.

Shi Ji's cultivation level has also improved considerably.

She condensed over eight hundred laws.

Its magical power is beyond description.

Besides.

Shi Ji's physical body has also been greatly enhanced, and now her physical body is comparable to an impenetrable fortress.

In this life, Shi Ji reshaped her body, and her physique underwent a tremendous transformation.

Her physical defenses were more terrifying than ever before.

Moreover, Shi Ji now possesses an extremely powerful divine ability called the Chaos Ancient Lamp.

The Chaos Ancient Lamp can spew out destructive flames, which are said to be able to incinerate even Emperor-level powerhouses. Its power is beyond the imagination of ordinary cultivators.

Shi Ji was determined to try to activate the Chaos Ancient Lamp, a divine power. If she could not activate it, it would be a real pity.

However, she had high hopes for the Chaos Ancient Lamp, perhaps she could really activate it?
Shi Ji planned to first find some precious natural treasures and wait for the time to activate the Chaos Ancient Lamp.

She continued her search for spiritual objects.

Along the way, she encountered all sorts of strange beasts.

These strange beasts are incredibly powerful. Shi Ji once encountered a beast at the fifth level of the Emperor Realm and was nearly killed, but fortunately she escaped quickly.

Moreover, that strange beast seemed to be one of the beasts chasing her. If she encountered another strange beast, Shi Ji would surely die.

The strange beast chased Shi Ji for thousands of miles, but failed to kill her.

They eventually gave up the pursuit and returned to their lair.

Shi Ji speculated that such strange beasts should belong to the insect-like category.

She ignored the insect-like creatures.

That night, Shiji heard a rumbling sound of water.

The booming sound was deafening.

It was as if the sky had fallen and the earth had split open.

Shiji darted toward the source of the sound.

Soon she saw the terrifying giant worm.

This insect has a body as large as a mountain, scarlet eyes, and a ferocious-looking mouth.

This was a colossal serpent from the primordial era. Shi Ji recognized the origin of this ferocious creature and couldn't help but frown.

The primordial serpent roared angrily and then pounced on the rocky islet.

Shi Ji unleashed the Fist of Reincarnation of the Heavens.

The power of the Heavenly Reincarnation Fist is truly domineering.

He punched the primordial python again and again.

With a loud crash, the two sides clashed fiercely.

After Shi Ji fought the primordial giant python for three hundred rounds.

In the end, Shiji won.

She grabbed the tail of the primordial python.

The giant python struggled violently, trying to break free.

But Shi Ji's hand, which was tightly gripping its tail, remained motionless, and then she leaped into the air.
He leaped onto the head of the primordial python and suddenly twisted his legs together.

The sound of bones cracking rang out immediately.

"Pfft" sound.

The enormous head of the primordial python was torn off by Shi Ji.

"What a horrific scene!"

Shi Ji grinned and put the giant python's corpse into her storage ring.

Then they continued deeper into the area.

The deeper you go, the colder and more gloomy the surroundings become.

The area was even shrouded in a thick, poisonous fog, which contained highly toxic substances.

If an ordinary cultivator were to accidentally come into contact with it, he would immediately perish.

Of course, Shi Ji's situation was special; she was not afraid of poison gas.

Although the poisonous fog here is highly toxic, it does not actually pose a significant threat to Shiji.

While searching for the spiritual objects around her, Shi Ji observed the surrounding situation.

Before she knew it, she had arrived near a cliff.

Shi Ji looked up and saw a strange plant growing on the top of the cliff.

The plant's roots extended into the void, as if connecting to another dimension.

I have never seen such trees and rocks before.

But this tree exudes an astonishing aura, as if it contains immense power.

"Huh, could this tree be a celestial medicine from the realm of immortality?" Shi Ji looked at the plant in surprise.

suddenly.

The surface of the plant was covered with dense runes.

After the runes appeared, Shi Ji felt waves of terrifying pressure enveloping her.

Those runes contained an extremely strange and evil power.

The Runemaster must be an extremely ancient being.

As for who this person was, Shi Ji had no idea.

"This is bad, what is that?" Shi Ji's face suddenly darkened.

Beneath the plant, a ferocious and terrifying creature was devouring its life essence.

"This is a Soul-Devouring Demon Spider. Legend has it that this spider is a remnant species from the previous era, and is said to be the royal family among the Soul-Devouring Demon Spiders. Its mother is said to be the queen of the Nine-Headed Soul-Devouring Demon Spider! Therefore, this creature is born with the ability to seize souls and steal spirits!"

Shi Ji originally thought it was just a legendary creature.

Unexpectedly, it was all true.

She quickly channeled her magic power, summoning a stone sword to slash at the Soul-Devouring Spider. In the clash, the Soul-Devouring Spider was blasted away, yet remained unscathed.

Its offensive became increasingly fierce.

Without further hesitation, Shi Ji unleashed the Phoenix Rebirth Spear, sweeping it out horizontally. A powerful devouring magnetic field surged from within that dark divine spear.

Under the pull of the magnetic field, the Soul-Devouring Spider immediately lost its ability to move and was locked onto by the Phoenix Rebirth Spear.

With a muffled thud, the Phoenix Rebirth Spear pierced through the Soul-Devouring Spider's body, killing it instantly.

Shi Ji rushed forward, grabbed the spider's head, and used her Devouring Technique.

Her devouring technique was extremely powerful and terrifying, instantly consuming all the life essence of the Soul-Devouring Demon Spider.

"This is truly an excellent tonic. My cultivation has improved significantly. This Soul-Devouring Demon Spider is indeed a great tonic!"

Shi Ji muttered to herself.

Just then, a sharp, piercing screech came from afar, followed by a swarm of Soul-Devouring Spiders rushing towards Shiji.

There were tens of thousands of these densely packed spiders.

Each Soul-Devouring Spider exudes a powerful aura.

Clearly, these demonic spiders all came from another land.

There is a special rule in this world.

All cultivators who step into this place.

They are all in an adversarial relationship.

If you encounter a cultivator of the same level, you should be able to detect them immediately.

They must be eliminated at all costs.

This is an unchangeable rule, so when the Soul-Devouring Spider sensed the immense vitality emanating from Shi Ji, it launched an attack without hesitation.

This left Shiji feeling quite helpless.

He was simply looking for a few rare and precious medicinal herbs.

How did we attract so many terrifying beings?
It's best to leave this awful place as soon as possible, otherwise you might not be able to leave later.

Shi Ji turned and fled.

Meanwhile, the dense swarms of Soul-Devouring Spiders gave chase, one after the other, rapidly heading deeper into the mountains.

Half a day later.

Shi Ji discovered a lake ahead.

The lake shore is surrounded by dense grass.

Shi Ji stopped and quietly crept to the lakeside.

Then she silently disappeared into the lake, intending to use it to hide her tracks and avoid the Soul-Eating Spiders.

However, Shi Ji underestimated the Soul-Devouring Spider's sense of smell.

As she dived into the lake.

A Soul-Devouring Spider sensed Shi Ji's presence and quickly swam towards her.

"Damn it, we've been discovered!"

Shi Ji's expression immediately turned somewhat unpleasant.

He quickly swam towards the deeper part of the lake.

Soon Shi Ji saw that thousands of Soul-Devouring Spiders had gathered in the lake.

These spiders are devouring the creatures in the lake.

Those creatures had only recently entered this mountain forest when they encountered this calamity.

The Soul-Devouring Spiders hissed angrily and pounced on Shi Ji. Shi Ji quickly fled, but the spiders pursued relentlessly.

They chased them for hundreds of miles before giving up.

Seeing the spider retreat, Shi Ji breathed a sigh of relief.

They then began to examine their own losses.

The fierce battle just now consumed a lot of my magic power, but fortunately, my storage ring contains a large number of elixirs and various healing elixirs.

He took out a healing elixir and swallowed it, restoring his magical power.

During this time, Shiji traveled swiftly and finally arrived at the area indicated by the jade pendant.

He stood on the shore waiting for the jade pendant to summon him, but the jade pendant did not respond.

Shi Ji frowned slightly, it seemed the jade pendant wasn't intended to help him find the Nine Nether Ice Lotus or the Heavenly Fire.

He sighed softly and prepared to return to his original resting place.

Just then, Shi Ji suddenly felt a chill run down her spine, as if a cold, sinister gaze was fixed on her.

He looked around but saw nothing unusual.

Slightly surprised—I had clearly sensed a chilling killing intent just now, could it have been an illusion?
Shi Ji shook her head, no longer pursuing the matter, and turned back along the same route.

However, at that moment, a series of footsteps suddenly came.

Shi Ji looked toward the source of the sound and saw two dark figures rushing toward her; they were two three-striped Soul-Devouring Demon Spiders.

These kinds of demonic spiders are terrifying, and their speed is extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, they are next to Shi Ji and then open their blood-red mouths to bite.

Shi Ji swiftly dodged and punched one of the demon spiders in the head.

With a violent impact, the spider's head exploded.

However, the other spider had extremely strong defenses, and Shi Ji's attack failed to destroy its head, only severely injuring it.

Moreover, the demonic spider quickly got up and pounced on Shi Ji again, showing no fear of death and its attack did not diminish even when it was injured.

The spider's claws tore through the void and slammed down towards Shi Ji.

Shi Ji punched the spider's claws, while simultaneously kicking another spider in the neck with her right leg.

A cracking sound rang out as the spider's neck was nearly broken by a kick, yet it still did not fall and continued its attack.

Although these spiders are not very intelligent, they have a fighting spirit.

An ordinary person who encounters this demonic spider will undoubtedly die.

But Shiji was no ordinary person.

He struck in quick succession, crushing the heads of both demonic spiders.

The remaining spider roared angrily, spewing out a venomous mist that enveloped Shi Ji.

Shi Ji dared not underestimate the poison gas. She vanished from her spot in an instant and reappeared behind the Demon Spider.

A Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique was unleashed, striking the demonic spider's body squarely.

The demonic spider was blasted away, spitting blood and turning deathly pale. It glared venomously at Shi Ji, then led the remaining demonic spiders away swiftly.

Shi Ji ignored it and simply put away the Soul-Devouring Crystal Core that had condensed inside the Demon Spider's body.

This is a Soul-Devouring Crystal Core, which can be used to refine elixirs for the soul and can also enhance cultivation. It is truly a precious item.

Although the Soul-Devouring Spider is ferocious, it poses little threat to Shi Ji.

After carefully storing the crystal core, Shi Ji continued to swim towards the bottom of the lake. The closer she got to the bottom, the more she felt a gloomy atmosphere permeating the air.

That aura seemed to originate from the Netherworld.

Knowing that this place was bound to be dangerous, Shi Ji cautiously descended. Soon, he saw a huge stone gate.

The stone gate was dilapidated, and the inside was shrouded in darkness and swirling mist.

Shi Ji sensed that terrifying creatures lurked within the churning black mist.

"Could there really be an evil spirit alive?"

Shi Ji frowned and pondered.

He felt his guess was pretty close to the truth.

After all, this forbidden ancient forest is extremely strange, and no one knows what might be hidden in the lake.

After a moment's hesitation, Shi Ji decided to go inside and find out what was going on.

Even with the phoenix feather robe protecting him, he was unwilling to take any risks lightly.

Shi Ji swam quickly toward Shi Men.

Upon arriving near the stone gate, we saw that the cave entrance was about seven or eight meters away.

The temperature there was even lower, and the chill was biting, making Shi Ji's hair stand on end, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar made of millennia-old black ice.

Moreover, it seemed that some kind of terrifying creature was sealed within that ice cellar.

Shi Ji tried to bypass the gate, but the stone gate was surrounded by a thick ghostly aura that condensed into a layer of ghostly mist, blocking her way.

He tentatively took a step toward the ghostly mist.

In an instant, the ghostly mist trembled, and the figure of an old man appeared.

The old man was thin and frail, with wrinkled skin and a sinister glint in his cloudy eyes.

He looked at Shi Ji and asked in a hoarse voice, "You want to go in?"

"That's exactly what I was thinking."

Shi Ji clasped his hands in a fist and replied.

Just then, one after another, Soul-Devouring Spiders crawled out, swarming in densely packed numbers.

"Hmph, you don't overestimate your capabilities."

The old man's expression was indifferent as he raised his arm and made a light gesture.

Streaks of sword energy shot out, instantly piercing through the surging demonic spiders.

One by one, the demonic spiders screamed and fell to the ground.

Shi Ji witnessed the old man's move and realized that his strength was indeed unfathomable.

The spiders could not harm the old man in the slightest, but the old man was not easy to deal with either—he needed to keep an eye on them, otherwise the spiders would swarm in from the depths of darkness.

"Let's go," the old man said calmly.

"Thank you, senior."

Shi Ji bowed in thanks, and then quickly followed the old man as they dived into the lake.

He didn't push his speed to the maximum, as the lake was unpredictable and he feared losing his way if he descended too quickly, so he maintained a steady descent. (End of Chapter)
