Primordial Era: A member of the Jie Sect, apprenticed to Tongtian

Elevate your bloodline and forge the foundation for immortality.

Upon hearing these four words, Shi Yuan naturally realized what Wang Shu wanted to express.

"You mean, the dragon race..."

"Um."

Wang Shu readily picked up the conversation.

"The Primordial Sea Eye is the birthplace of the Ancestral Dragon, and its mysteries are boundless."

"All the ancient dragons after the Ancestral Dragon were originally required to be sent to the Primordial Sea Eye."

"Through the enhancement of their bloodlines, they have become ancient, powerful dragons capable of overturning rivers and seas!"

She sighed as she said this.

Shi Yuan, of course, understood.

Simply put, the significance of the Primordial Sea Eye to the Dragon Clan can no longer be described as a magical treasure or a blessed land.

This is the very lifeblood, the most fundamental thing of the clan.

All dragons during the early Dragon-Han Calamity needed to undergo bloodline enhancement in the Primordial Sea Eye after birth.

Only in this way can the dragon race truly be the leader of the three innate races that roamed the primordial world in ancient times—the ancient true dragon!

No wonder Shi Yuan always found it strange.

Legend has it that there are very few ancient dragons, but each one is extremely powerful.

However, the dragon race today not only has a wide variety of species, but its average strength is also not particularly high.

Looking at it now

"Could it be the Primordial Eye of the Three Realms...?"

Shi Yuan asked tentatively.

"Hmm—With the fall of the Ancestral Dragon and all the ancient true dragons in the Great Calamity, even the dragon race does not know the location of the Primordial Sea Eye."

Wang Shu sighed.

"However... even if someone finds out, it's probably useless."

"In the early days of the Dragon-Han War, the entire ocean was divided into the four seas we see today by the great war between the three races."

"That primordial sea eye was likely destroyed in the great war long ago."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yuan's heart suddenly stirred.

He seemed to suddenly think of something, but couldn't quite recall it for a moment.

So, while pondering this, she asked curiously, "How does Fairy Wangshu know so many of the secrets of the Dragon Han Dynasty?"

He was indeed quite curious.

When the three primordial races were intertwined, Wangshu must have not yet taken human form.

Given her personality, she doesn't seem like the type of person who would be interested in these kinds of things.

Upon hearing this, Wang Shu glanced at him.

"Although I dislike participating in the power struggles within my clan, I am, after all, a demon god of the demon race."

"The demon race once mobilized its entire force to secretly search for the Primordial Sea Eye—therefore, I am naturally aware of this matter!"

She said that.

"The demon race is searching for the Primordial Sea Eye... Hiss!"

Shi Yuan originally wanted to ask more questions, but halfway through his sentence, he suddenly realized something.

I couldn't help but gasp!

Why are the demon race searching for the Primordial Sea Eye?

Is that even a question?!

"The bloodline-enhancing power of the Primordial Sea Eye is also useful to races other than dragons."

He exclaimed.

"certainly."

Wang Shu nodded: "The Primordial Sea Eye was born of heaven and earth. Although it nurtured the Ancestral Dragon, it is naturally not exclusively favored by the Dragon Clan."

At this point, she looked at Shi Yuan with a half-smile: "Now, Junior Brother Shi Yuan, do you know why the demon race is searching for this item?"

"...nature."

Shi Yuan understood perfectly well.

In the ancient war between the demons and the sorcerers, what was the greatest advantage of each race?

The answer is simple.

The demon race has many people, but the witch race is strong!

After all, all things in this world, whether plants, trees, spirits, or rocks, are living beings.

Anything that develops intelligence and cultivates magical power can be considered a 'demon'!

Therefore, the strength of the demon race is arguably the most uneven.

Among the powerful ones are ancient demon gods, invincible among their peers!

The weaker demon race is simply utterly incompetent.

Unfortunately, the latter is the norm for the demon race.

This is also the biggest difference between them and the Wu tribe.

If we really want to average out strength...

An ordinary sorcerer from the sorcerer tribe could probably defeat more than a thousand lesser demons.

But if the demon race were to find the Primordial Sea Eye...

All weak demons can elevate their bloodline and forge a foundation for immortality.

"That would be outrageous!"

Shi Yuan found the thought of this possibility terrifying.

If all demon bloodlines could be elevated to the level of the ancient true dragon.

Then there's no need for so much scheming in the war between the Lich and the Demon race; they can just push through it head-on!

"It's not that exaggerated."

Seeing Shi Yuan's expression, Wang Shu, unusually, laughed.

For a moment, it was like snow melting in the spring sunshine; it was truly beautiful.

"Although the Primordial Sea Eye is unparalleled in power, according to the investigation by the demon race... it consumes its own essence every time it elevates the bloodline of a living being."

"Although this source will slowly recover, it is impossible for all demons to be promoted at once."

"In the past, the number of ancient dragons was small, so it was natural that every newborn true dragon could have its bloodline elevated."

"But this wouldn't work for the demon race—the demon race's original plan was to elevate the bloodline of some newly born demons who were already quite talented."

Wang Shu shook her head as she finished speaking.

The plan is certainly wonderful.

But in reality, the demon race didn't even have time to find the location of the Primordial Sea Eye.

They only managed to find a few fragments of information from the Longhan era.

Then the conflict between the liches erupted.

As for what happened after that, Wang Shu had already passed away, so naturally she was unaware of what had happened.

However, judging from the outcome of the Lich War, the demon race most likely failed to find the Primordial Eye.

Upon hearing these ancient secrets again, Shi Yuan could only sigh once more.

It must be said that, regardless of the previous matters concerning the Nine Heavens Breath Soil and Nuwa...

It's the same thing again, the matter of the Primordial Eye.

He could clearly sense that it was all orchestrated by some unseen divine will.

Just like the witch and demon races of the past.

The demon race has secretly prepared so many plans.

The success of any plan could directly alter the outcome of the Lich War.

Similarly, it is likely that similar situations will occur frequently on the side of the Wu tribe.

Ultimately, neither side's plan succeeded.

Ultimately, both sides suffered heavy losses and withdrew from the stage of the Three Realms.

If this is not the will of Heaven, then what is the will of Heaven?

but...

"If the Jie Sect declines, it will be the will of Heaven."

"So my coming to this world... is perhaps destined to defy fate."

Shi Yuan muttered to himself, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

However, he quickly dismissed the presumptuous thoughts that had been on his mind.

Then, with a hint of excitement, she asked, "Does Fairy Wangshu mean that I can also use this Primordial Sea Eye to elevate my bloodline?"

He's wide awake now that this is mentioned!

Upon hearing this, Wang Shu gave him a helpless look: "...Of course not."

"This Primordial Sea Eye is only effective for beings whose Dao foundation has not yet been established, that is, those who have not yet entered the path of immortality."

"Those who have already established their immortal foundation are naturally exempt from this effect."

The meaning is very simple.

Of the three people present, even the newly born Tai Xi was at the Taiyi True Immortal level.

None of them can use this Primordial Sea Eye.

"..."

Shi Yuan was speechless.

After all that hype, are you finally telling him it can't be used?

Isn't this just fooling people?

Wang Shu clearly understood the meaning behind Shi Yuan's look.

For a moment, she felt somewhat embarrassed.

She had just recalled the past events involving the demon race, and was surprised when she said so much.

After all, the thing that the entire demon clan had been searching for had suddenly appeared before her.

It would be impossible not to be surprised.

"However, if Junior Brother Shiyuan takes on any disciples in the future... well, or if there are any newly born juniors whose bloodlines need to be elevated..."

So she quickly added.

But Shi Yuan was taken aback when she said that.

"A newly born... junior?"

"!!!"

At that moment, a brilliant idea flashed in his mind!

When he heard Wang Shu's story just now, he had a feeling that he had "forgotten something".

At that moment, it suddenly occurred to me!

"That egg!"

He was startled.

Then, he raised his hand and took out a grayish egg that looked like a stone from the sleeve of the Heaven-Slaying Robe (Good Li Zhao).

That was none other than one of the gifts Yunxiao had given him when they first met.

However, a few days ago, they engaged in a battle of wits and courage with the Chan Sect.

He had indeed completely forgotten about that thing.

It wasn't until now that I remembered!

It is said that this item originally belonged to Zhao Gongming, and the Tongtian Sect Leader once said that it contained a great karmic connection and a great opportunity!

Zhao Gongming nurtured and refined it for several eons, but still failed to hatch it.

Instead, he himself was listed on the Investiture of the Gods, and from then on, he had no self-reliant self.

Therefore, he gave the egg to Shi Yuan.

Most importantly... this egg was discovered by Zhao Gongming in an ancient sea eye.

Also discovered at the same time was Zhao Gongming's most famous treasure—the top-grade innate spiritual treasure, the twenty-four "Sea-Stabilizing Divine Pearls"!

Thinking about it more carefully...

"Could the ancient sea eye that Senior Brother Zhao Gongming discovered be the same one that was destroyed in the Three Realms?"

Just as Shi Yuan took out the egg and was pondering this,

That's how he discovered it.

The dusty, gray egg in his hand actually moved slightly.

"boom!"

The vitality within it, silently... suddenly erupted!
