I, the Chaos Entity, joined the chat group at the start.

Speaking of which, she and the First Emperor were from the same hometown, only their time periods were separated by a thousand years.

"It seems there's a First Emperor in the group too!"

Wei Lingying thought of the First Emperor in the chat group. She had met him once before in the Great Dao Palace. He did indeed have the majesty of a first emperor of all time, and his authority was awe-inspiring even without anger.

As I pondered, a soft, rustling sound came from the dense forest.

As a natural source energy user, Wei Lingying's perception is extraordinary; she can sense someone from a hundred meters away.

Seeing this, she stopped hiding and jumped out, throwing an ice ball from the air. The ice ball landed on the ground and immediately froze an area of ​​fifty meters in radius, freezing all living things within the area!

"Did it work?"

Wei Lingying approached the frozen center step by step. The surrounding trees were frozen, but she did not see any mercenaries. It was not until she reached the deepest part that she found a light green elliptical barrier.

Within the barrier, a dozen or so figures appeared and disappeared, none other than an international tomb raiding gang.

Clearly, after being attacked by the ice bullets, these tomb raiders activated their energy source devices, directly summoning a barrier to isolate energy and protect themselves.

Seeing this, Wei Lingying spoke up, "Tomb raiders, this is not a place for you. Leave immediately."

Upon hearing this, the mercenaries' eyes flashed with murderous intent. They pulled out their advanced weapons, wielding laser guns, and began firing directly at the enemy.

A hail of bullets rained down on Wei Lingying, but with a wave of her hand, ice pillars appeared in front of her, blocking the bullets.

At the same time, it continued to unleash source energy, shattering the opponent's protective shield, and several mercenaries were frozen into ice sculptures one after another.

As the source energy was depleted, Wei Lingying's body was under greater strain, her breathing became rapid, and pale blue crystalline patterns appeared on her neck and cheeks, a side effect of overusing source energy.

This ability can make them extraordinary, but if they cannot control it perfectly, their physical body and even their spirit are at risk of being devoured. This is why Wei Lingying has been cultivating Taoism, in order to achieve perfect control.

Unfortunately, she still hasn't reached the point of perfect control.

Of the twelve agents, seven were rendered incapable of fighting by Wei Lingying's ice-freezing technique.

The remaining people were surprised by the woman's strength; she was clearly a very rare natural source energy user.

Three of the tomb raiders took out green test tubes from the bag and then plunged them directly into the necks of the victims.

"That's source energy!"

Wei Lingying noticed the other person's actions, and a look of shock appeared in her eyes.

Source energy is violent, mysterious, and uncontrollable. Therefore, it has always been used to create advanced weapons and rarely used on the human body. Apart from those born with source energy, ordinary people who are injected with source energy drugs have a 90% chance of dying instantly on the spot—or exploding!

Furthermore, energy potions are not something that ordinary people can obtain.

The organization behind this group of mercenaries must be extremely powerful, suggesting that this tomb raiding is more complicated than expected.

Three people were injected with the energy-generating agent. Two of them experienced continuous swelling and bleeding from their seven orifices after the injection, and then they exploded.

The remaining one burst into flames, transforming into a fiery monster that melted the surrounding ice and scorched the ground.

This person succeeded and gained the power of source energy, but he lost consciousness and became berserk, burning all the remaining mercenaries nearby to ashes!

“That’s not how you use the power of source energy.” Wei Lingying’s eyes were filled with sorrow as she sighed inwardly.

The emergence of energy should have benefited and improved the world, bringing happiness and well-being to people.

But in the end, it was used to make weapons!

The mutated, berserk fireman attacked Wei Lingying. The fireman waved his hand, and bursts of flame shot out, sending waves of heat through the air!

Wei Lingying then unleashed her freezing power, using extreme frost to counter it!

Unfortunately, she needs to control her power and cannot output it at its maximum.

This fire-man is stronger, but in reality, it comes at the cost of his life; his defeat is only a matter of time.

Before that, Wei Lingying felt that she might not be able to persevere!

Because of the use of source energy, more and more crystals have appeared near her neck, and her body has become extremely weak.

Just then, a red figure appeared out of thin air, and a ball of purple energy appeared at the feet of the fireman. The flames on the fireman's body quickly disappeared, and he turned back into his original human form. The person looked pained and fell to the ground, losing all signs of life.

Upon seeing this scene, Wei Lingying looked up and saw a lively girl who looked to be in her early teens.

The girl had short black hair, wore a red jacket with a black inner layer, and shorts on her lower body, with a pair of brightly colored thermal underwear underneath.

Such an outfit is truly unconventional.

Upon seeing this person, Wei Lingying already knew their identity: "You are the agent Mu Die mentioned in Purgatory!"

“Not bad, Sage. Actually, I arrived a while ago and saw your battle. Sage, are you very good? But you're still a little inferior to me.” Mu Die replied casually, a slight smile playing on her lips.

Mu Die has a lively personality and looks like she's in her teens, but she has actually lived for thousands of years and is an immortal being. What's even more incredible is that she can be resurrected even if she is killed. Her siphon power can extract the life force of the target and feed it back to herself, providing all-round quality enhancement!

“Thank you, but I didn’t expect that these mercenaries would have source energy potions, and that source energy would ultimately be used on the human body,” Wei Lingying said.

"It's alright, I'm here anyway, none of this matters." Mu Die didn't care at all. She had lived for a long time, seen many things, and experienced even more.

If she were sentimental, the experiences of the past thousand years would have driven her crazy long ago. The reason she seems carefree and cheerful now is that Mu Die experiences life with a playful attitude, and in essence, she never suffers internally!

"Ding, mission complete. Successfully stopped the tomb robbers. You will receive 3,000 points."

At this moment, Wei Lingying heard the voice of the Great Dao chat group.

Wei Lingying was very happy to have earned points, but she didn't show it.

Taoist temple.

Wei Lingying brought Mu Die to her place of cultivation and cooked a lot of delicious food for her.

Mu Die is not Chinese, but seeing this ancient and charming Taoist temple, she felt a sense of longing and her heart became peaceful.

"Sage, the buns you made are delicious!" Mu Die's mouth was stuffed with several buns, making her look bulging.

Wei Lingying didn't know what to say. This Mu Die Chuanwen was one of the most mysterious agents, but now that she saw him, he was really too funny, like a naughty child.

She doesn't eat eggs one by one, but eats three or four at a time in one bite, which is simply outrageous.

After entertaining Mu Die, Wei Lingying began preparing how to use her points and how to improve herself.

She first used the cultivation function of the Great Dao Palace, which is used for cultivation and can maximize the user's comprehension and aptitude.

Wei Lingying tried it out and spent a thousand points to enter the Great Dao Palace for cultivation.

The Great Dao Palace has evolved into a place of beautiful mountains and clear waters, rich in spiritual energy. Auspicious clouds appear in the sky, cranes fly, and dazzling light constantly blooms, making it a breathtaking sight!

"Is this the immortal realm?"

Wei Lingying sighed, her eyes dazzled. At the same time, she felt her body become unusually comfortable. The shackles deep within her mind had been broken, and endless knowledge kept pouring in—secrets about source energy, secrets of genes, and even flesh, blood, cells, and the physical body…

Her source energy needs to reach perfection in order not to suffer the backlash from the crystal!

Now, with the support of the Great Dao Chat Group, she directly comprehended the ultimate mystery of Source Energy and learned how to perfectly control it. This problem was solved in an instant, and there are even deeper secrets about the various uses of Source Energy!

Her body's energy flowed instinctively; this Great Dao Palace possessed all the energy that cultivators could draw upon, an inexhaustible source of power.

Wei Lingying's body absorbed source energy, and the source energy within her body continued to increase, filling her limbs, bones, and internal organs, and circulating continuously!

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Lingying awoke from her cultivation state and was greatly shocked to sense the changes within herself.

The source energy within her body continued to compress, eventually condensing into a golden core in her abdomen—a source energy golden core.

However, this is not a cultivation system; it is merely similar in appearance to the Golden Core, but does not possess the supernatural powers of the Golden Core.

However, the amount of source energy contained in the golden core within the body is more than ten times that before.

Source users don't have much source energy in their bodies because excessive source energy cannot be perfectly controlled and would have too great an impact on themselves.

However, Wei Lingying has now compressed it into a golden core, which she can now control perfectly, and there is no risk of backlash.

At the same time, through this training, Wei Lingying gained a deeper understanding of source energy. It can be said that no one in this world understands source energy better than her, not even those source energy doctors who have studied it for decades!

Energy is the mystery of genes, like a genetic lock.

Some people are born with the ability to unlock this lock, thus possessing mysterious power!

Actually, this lock can also be opened through some kind of stimulus.

However, genes are only the first layer. The most crucial thing is how to use and control the source energy after possessing it, and how to obtain it.

Now, Wei Lingying has learned how to obtain this power. Through meditation, she senses the heavens and earth and obtains source energy from nature and even the universe!

However, to achieve this level, one must at least condense a Golden Core of Source Energy.

Otherwise, the growth of source energy is very slow and can only be improved with proficiency.

Therefore, even if one cultivates for a lifetime, the improvement will only be a small fraction.

Finally, there is the essence of source energy. Wei Lingying understands it as the source energy attribute of each person, corresponding to the laws of this world and even the universe, a most fundamental power, and also one of the frameworks that constitute this world!

This training deepened Wei Lingying's understanding of source energy and clarified her future direction for improvement, showing her how to enhance herself.

"I have two thousand points left, what can I do with them?"

Wei Lingying thought it over carefully and decided to keep 1,000 points for further cultivation and use the remaining 1,000 points for the lottery.

Actually, you can use 1,000 points to buy items, but I haven't found anything suitable for me or that I want.

I finally decided to try my luck with the lottery!

Wei Lingying participated in a lottery, and the prize was a magical item from another world—the Ox Talisman, one of the twelve talismans!

The Ox Talisman possesses immense power!

When Wei Lingying held the Ox Talisman, she could clearly feel her strength increase, feeling that she could shatter steel plates and boulders weighing hundreds or thousands of kilograms with a single punch!

...

When Mu Die saw Wei Lingying again, she felt that Wei Lingying had undergone some kind of transformation, becoming extraordinary, indescribable, and unbelievable.

Wei Lingying, who possesses the Source Energy Golden Core, also discovered the strangeness of the Twilight Butterfly!

If the source energy within an ordinary source energy user is a stream, then the source energy within Mu Die's body is an ocean—it's so vast that even Wei Lingying's source energy cannot compare!

"How could Mu Die possess so much source energy?" Wei Lingying didn't know Mu Die's past and found it hard to imagine that a girl who looked to be in her early teens could possess so much source energy!

Mu Die has lived for thousands of years. Even without cultivation, the accumulated source energy over thousands of years is still terrifying.

Moreover, Mu Die can also devour the life force and source energy of others, which is equivalent to a master in the martial arts world who knows the Great Art of Absorbing Power and lives for thousands of years. How exaggerated must that amount of internal energy be!

"Sage, I think you've changed, and you smell so good, even better than steamed buns!" Mu Die teased.

Upon hearing this, the Sage blushed slightly. "Twilight Butterfly, I sense that your source energy is incredibly vast? But you don't look very old?"

Mu Die chuckled, "Let me tell you a secret. I've lived for many years, I can't remember exactly how many, but it's definitely been one or two thousand years."

“??” The sage was stunned.

This is something that can be told to outsiders. If a girl who has lived for thousands of years tells it, is it still a secret?

Wei Lingying looked closely at Mu Die, but the more she looked, the more she felt that Mu Die seemed not very bright.

“Thousands of years?” Wei Lingying asked subconsciously.

"Of course, but I lose my memory every now and then. The thing is, after living this long, sometimes I even doubt whether I'm human!" Mu Die laughed, then picked up two large meat buns and stuffed them into her mouth.

Chapter 404 Building the Heavenly Court, Ascending the Plateau

The Heaven-Covering Dimension, the Ancient Forbidden Zone.

"Brother Yi, I want to create a Heavenly Court."

On this day, Ye Fan came to find Xu Yi and proposed the idea of ​​creating a Heavenly Court.

This surprised Xu Yi, as the timeline had already shifted and was completely different from the original one.

Ye Fan originally created the Heavenly Court with the intention of ascending to the Immortal Realm with a group of people and achieving a mastery of the Immortal Path. So what is his purpose now?

Furthermore, the strange race is watching us closely and could attack again at any time.

Even if there were a Heavenly Court, it would probably be destroyed and wouldn't be of much use.

Looking at Xu Yi's expression, Ye Fan had already guessed what he was thinking.

"Brother Yi, the ancient Heavenly Court has always existed. Now that all the heroes of this great world have gathered, it is the time to establish a Heavenly Court. With a Heavenly Court, we can collect resources and build up our strength, which is a viable way to improve our power," Ye Fan explained.

Cultivating immortality in the mortal world requires a tremendous amount of time, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of years. Not everyone can achieve this in a short period of time like Ye Fan in this life!

And the Immortal King realm goes without saying, starting at hundreds of thousands of years.

However, if one can collect the gorilla's talisman, it is also a way to quickly improve one's strength.
