On the boundless, desolate sea, the waves crash and surge.

At this moment, Shi Yuan and the other two were standing in the sky above the Tianhuang Sea.

"Just as I thought."

Having failed to find the treasure, Shi Yuan, already somewhat exasperated, arrived at this place and unhesitatingly used the Heavenly Dao Origin.

After returning to the state of "heaven and earth are me, and I am heaven and earth", he easily perceived the things deep in the Heavenly Desolate Sea!

Therefore, a look of joy appeared on his face!

"There's more than one!"

He was shocked to discover...

Precious innate treasures do indeed exist in the deepest part of the Heavenly Desolate Sea.

And not just one, but two!

"Teacher, what is that?"

At this moment, Tai Xi, who had gradually become familiar with Shi Yuan, also approached Shi Yuan and asked curiously.

Wang Shu, standing to the side, also showed a listening expression.

"You'll see when you get there!"

Shi Yuan just laughed it off.

"Let's go, let's go get the treasure!"

Shi Yuan smiled.

The three of them then plunged directly into the Desolate Sea below.

The vast ocean is over a million miles deep.

As they dived deeper, the three of them witnessed a wondrous sight.

It was a strange, pitch-black sea.

Although it is located in the deepest part of the Heavenly Desolate Sea.

However, the ever-flowing, pitch-black seawater made this place seem like a "sea within a sea".

As they flow, countless ocean currents take shape.

It seems to be the source of all water, the 'mother' that nurtures everything in this ocean!

"One-yuan heavy water!"

Even though he had already guessed that the innate treasures nurtured in this ocean must be extremely precious.

But when she actually saw the water, Wang Shu's eyes still shone with a strange light.

Just as the golden flames of the sun are the king of all fires, the celestial soil of the nine heavens is the source of all soils.

One element of heavy water is the mother of all waters.

The so-called "monism" is infinitely numerous!

The power of creation contained within the single element of heavy water is immeasurable!

It is said that just one drop can transform into a vast river!

Whether for refining treasures or making elixirs, it is an unparalleled divine material.

In addition, the single-element heavy water also has a miraculous effect when used in magical combat.

First, it is similar to how the Nine Heavens Breath Soil restrains all earth-based magical treasures.

The single element of heavy water also has the effect of suppressing all waters in the three realms.

It also has a restraining effect on all water-based magical treasures.

Furthermore, the most powerful aspect of this single element of heavy water lies in the word "heavy".

One-element heavy water is indeed extremely heavy.

Each single drop contains hundreds of thousands of kilograms.

And what's most terrifying is that this weight doesn't just affect the physical body.

It affects even the soul and spirit.

During a battle, if this water is manipulated to transform into waves, any powerful immortal will fall into it.

Those were all cases where the physical body was suppressed and the primordial spirit was restrained, rendering them unable to move.

Without special measures, they would most likely drown!

Its terrifying aspect lies in the fact that it is undoubtedly extremely intimidating within the innate divine water.

Of course, this applies to Wang Shu.

At that moment, she almost instantly realized a key point.

"Since the One Yuan Heavy Water is here... Junior Brother Shiyuan, could the second treasure you mentioned be...?"

She had almost guessed the answer!

"Um!"

Shi Yuan nodded slightly.

Then, he simply pointed at the one-yuan heavy water in front of him.

"Buzz!"

Then, a white wave parted the flowing heavy water, creating a passageway.

And at the end of that passageway.

There was a huge vortex radiating a deep blue color.

From within this vortex, one-element heavy water is constantly being generated.

That's right.

The core is encased in a single element of heavy water.

It was a sea eye!

"Legend has it that only the Primordial Sea Eye can give birth to Primordial Heavy Water...and it's true!"

Seeing the azure sea eye, Wang Shu sighed softly.

His expression clearly showed a hint of nostalgia.

"Senior Wangshu, do you know the secrets of this sea eye?"

At this moment, Tai Xi, who had been watching with curiosity, blinked.

"In the Jie Sect's legacy that my teacher gave me, it was only mentioned that this item seemed to be something that the Dragon Clan held during the early Dragon-Han Calamity."

"But the exact origin of this sea eye is unknown."

She looked at Wang Shu with curiosity.

The question asked was actually what Shi Yuan wanted to know as well.

As Tai Xi said.

Among the teachings of the Jie Sect that he received, there were some records about the Primordial Sea Eye.

"The Primordial Eye of the Sea is the birthplace of the dragon race and the origin of the ocean."

"One of the innate divine waters, the Primal Heavy Water, originates from this sea eye."

Only this small portion is recorded.

Therefore, Shi Yuan knew that the Primordial Sea Eye was a treasure land.

However, the specifics are unknown.

But at this time, he visited Shu's attitude.

She seemed to know something about the Primordial Sea Eye.

"I do know a little bit about it."

When Wang Shu heard Tai Xi's question, she nodded straightforwardly.

"As you probably know, the Primordial Sea Eye is the ancestral land of the dragon race."

That's how she started.

After Shi Yuan and his apprentice nodded, she continued, "But what you should not know is that the term 'ancestral land' refers to... the place where the ancestral dragon was born!"

Upon hearing this, Shi Yuan's expression changed.

The First Emperor – a name that has long since become a legend in the Three Realms.

The progenitor of the Dragon Clan, the first of the three innate races, and the true eldest son of heaven and earth.

According to the Taoist patriarch.

In the past, when the three primordial races dominated the world, even Dao Ancestor Hongjun himself had not yet become a saint.

Forget about the method of severing the three corpses, it's not even a complete basic cultivation method.

Even in that primitive and ignorant era, the First Dragon possessed terrifying strength solely by virtue of the physical body and supernatural powers bestowed upon him by heaven and earth.

"The power of the Ancestral Dragon shakes the four seas."

"Even ordinary quasi-saints are no match for the power of a single claw from him."

This is said to be the evaluation of the First Emperor of Taoism by the First Emperor of Taoism in the Zixiao Palace.

This also shows how terrifying this progenitor of the dragon race was.

Although not a saint, he is a special being who surpasses even a quasi-saint.

Wang Shu continued, "During the Dragon-Han Calamity, the Dragon Clan was the leader of the scaled creatures and the strongest force in the Three Realms."

"But after the Dragon-Han Great Calamity, the Dragon Clan rapidly declined to its lowest point."

"Compared to the other two innate races, the Phoenix and the Qilin, they are far inferior—Junior Brother Shiyuan, why do you think this is?"

Upon hearing her question, Shi Yuan did indeed frown.

He had never thought about this question.

But upon closer reflection now, it does seem rather strange.

The three innate races are the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin, respectively the rulers of scaled creatures, beasts, and birds.

Although all three races suffered heavy losses after the initial calamity of the Dragon-Han Dynasty.

But in fact, the foundations of the Phoenix and Qilin clans are still intact.

In the current Three Realms, 357 can only be described as relatively low-key.

However, once they appear, they often hold a relatively high status.

For example, when Shennong, one of the Three Sovereigns, tasted hundreds of herbs to prove his Dao, there was a "Qilin offering medicine," and when the Western Zhou Dynasty attacked the Shang Dynasty, there was a "Phoenix singing on Mount Qi."

This is all because the sages left room for these two races to share the fortune, which shows that they still have a solid foundation.

However, the Dragon Clan, as the leader of the three innate races, is different.

It can truly be said that once it declined, it plummeted to the bottom.

During the Lich Age, being someone's mount was considered a good thing.

It's not surprising that many dragons had their hearts and marrow extracted and eaten directly.

Even someone like Huanglong, who was already a top figure among the dragons, still had to go to the Jade Void Palace to become a disciple of the Primordial Heavenly Venerable.

Even when they suffered humiliation, they dared not utter a sound.

It wasn't until the Three Sovereigns era that they finally gained the status of the human race's totem during the time of Yu the Great's flood control efforts, thus acquiring some of the human race's fortune.

Only then could the dragon race barely preserve its clan.

Even now.

The dragon race is also acting as the dogs of the Heavenly Court, suppressing the four seas.

Many dragons even joined the Buddhist order and became Dharma protectors.

No matter how you look at it, it's all too strange.

It can't just be that because the First Emperor fell, it's simply a matter of scrolling to the bottom, right?

Upon pondering this, Shi Yuan suddenly realized: "Fairy Wang Shu wouldn't say it's because of this Primordial Sea Eye, would she?"

He said incredulously.

Wang Shu nodded in agreement: "That's exactly right!"

She looked at Shi Yuan with a serious expression: "Junior Brother Shi Yuan, you may not know this."

"This Primordial Sea Eye not only produces Monolithic Heavy Water, but most importantly..."

"This item, as the source of the vast ocean of heaven and earth, possesses the miraculous effect of 'elevating bloodlines and forging the foundation for immortality'!"
