Primordial Era: I, Hongyun, take charge of the literary path

The magical artifacts crafted by Hongyun were nothing more than common kitchen utensils used in later generations, such as spatulas, cutting boards, bowls, chopsticks, spoons, and other kitchenware and tableware.

After crafting these magical artifacts, Hongyun began to butcher the ferocious beast meat, using all sorts of culinary skills, including stir-frying, pan-frying, steaming, stewing, deep-frying, roasting, and braising.

As for the spices needed for cooking, Hongyun had previously collected some Yaozhi Lingcao (a type of medicinal herb) and selected herbs similar to cumin, chili, and star anise to serve as seasonings.

Perhaps, the things Hongyun chose were originally spices that would later degenerate into cumin, chili, and other spices.

Soon, a fragrance different from barbecue wafted out, so delicious it was almost intoxicating.

Hongyun couldn't wait to start eating. She hadn't tasted any delicious food for countless years. Only after trying all eighteen kinds of culinary techniques did a look of satisfaction appear on her face.

The ferocious beasts, some tens of feet tall, were all devoured by Hongyun, and his powerful refining ability was also refined along with them.

The spiritual energy in the flesh of ferocious beasts is of very high quality, no worse than innate spiritual energy, and it is also easier to refine.

Next, Hongyun continued to explore.

During his explorations, he would collect any rare medicinal herbs, refined gold, and spiritual materials he encountered, which he could then use for alchemy and weapon crafting.

Hongyun occasionally encounters cultivators from various races, but instead of fighting them, he chooses to avoid them.

But if it's unavoidable and someone deliberately picks a fight, Hongyun doesn't mind eating some poultry and seafood.

During his battles with all races, Hongyun took the opportunity to verify the supernatural powers and spells deduced from the Wenyun Diagram, gradually perfecting his Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend supernatural powers.

The Wenyun Pictorial Record is somewhat like an AI from a previous life; it requires extensive training to continuously upgrade.

Although it was tedious and troublesome, we had no choice but to put in the hard work to train and improve our ability to record and interpret literary works.

Hongyun would also use the Wen Yun Diagram to deduce some ideas about literature and laws.

In the vast wilderness, years are forgotten; in the blink of an eye, the ocean has become a vast expanse.

Time flows on, without beginning or end. Time is like sand, days and months slip by.

As the days passed, the red cloud flew tens of millions of miles, seeing all sorts of unique landscapes and landforms.

During the exploration, Hongyun felt that the speed of the escape technique was a bit slow. There was nothing he could do about it, since the space of the primordial world was too stable.

According to the Wen Yun Tu Lu (a book of divination), to perform long-distance leaps, one would need at least the cultivation level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, or mastery of the Heavenly Gang Divine Power of Flying Body Transmission.

Flying and leaving traces: One can hide in the world, roam the four seas, be unknowable, unsearchable, and unobservable; one exists in the world, yet is not seen in the world.

The ability to leap and carry is a powerful spatial ability that can only be comprehended by understanding the laws of space. Once you have mastered the ability to leap and carry, speed becomes meaningless.

Besides, in terms of speed of supernatural powers alone, the Rainbow Transformation Technique of the Three-Legged Golden Crow Clan ranks first.

The golden crow transformed into a rainbow, disappearing in a flash for 120,000 miles.

In its previous life, the Earth's circumference was only 40,000 kilometers. The Golden Crow transformed into a rainbow and disappeared in one and a half circles.

One escape is not a unit of time. For example, some people need a few seconds to escape, while others can escape dozens of times in one second.

The second-ranked skill is the Somersault Cloud, a supernatural power passed down to Sun Wukong by the Bodhi Patriarch during the Journey to the West.

One somersault can cover 108,000 li.

Ranking third is the Kunpeng, the Golden-Winged Roc, whose wings spread wide, soaring 90,000 li in a single flight.

In Journey to the West, the Golden-Winged Roc flapped its wings twice and caught up with Sun Wukong, who was doing somersaults.

Fourth on the list is the Cloud Transformation Technique of the Red Cloud Ancestor. During the competition for the Saintly Position at Zixiao Palace, the Red Cloud Ancestor's speed was second only to Kunpeng.

The fifth-ranked one is the Golden Light Across the Earth, which can travel thousands of miles a day. It seems fast, but it is actually not fast.

After that, there are other supernatural abilities such as riding the clouds and mist, flying by controlling objects, and shrinking the earth to an inch. The speed is just so-so, and many of these supernatural abilities are not known for their speed.

Take, for example, the "Soaring Through the Clouds" technique in the Heavenly Divine Powers. The name sounds like a speed-related divine power, but it is actually a technique for becoming an immortal. If a mortal can comprehend "Soaring Through the Clouds," he can instantly become an immortal and ascend to the upper realm.

The transformation of the golden crow into a rainbow and the soaring of the roc are innate supernatural abilities that cannot be learned by other people or races.

Nezha's Wind Fire Wheels are magical weapons; they appear very fast, but their speed mainly relies on the power of these magical weapons.

The Somersault Cloud and the Golden Light Across the Ground are the most widely known and can be learned by most immortals and gods.

However, the Dharma cannot be easily passed on, as most immortals and gods cannot cultivate it, and how many people can become disciples of sages?

Therefore, most immortals and gods cultivate supernatural abilities such as flying through the clouds, manipulating objects, shrinking the earth to an inch, or using the Five Elements Escape Technique, and their speed is only so-so.

Therefore, many immortals and gods like to tame mounts. Some special mythical beasts are born with extraordinary talents, are very fast, and look very majestic.

Hongyun cultivates the Five Elements Great Escape technique from the Heavenly Gang Divine Power, which allows him to move within the Five Elements.

Hongyun placed great importance on his speed. If he was fast enough, even if he couldn't beat others, he would at least be able to escape if he couldn't win.

This is the best use of the speed supernatural power.

However, such powerful supernatural abilities cannot be created in a short time; Hongyun simply perfected them through practice.

On this day, the red cloud soared across the sky, then suddenly stopped, its gaze fixed on the vast earth.

Hongyun had just felt a strange sensation, as if something below was attracting him.

"Could it be a magical treasure destined for me?"

Thinking of this, Hongyun landed on the ground, and a cool breeze began to waft over.

Following the scent, Hongyun discovered a cold pool emanating chilly air, from which a faint, cold light shone.

A chill wafted across the icy pool, and gusts of cold air mixed with a faint, exotic fragrance wafted towards us.

Hongyun's primordial spirit sensed what was attracting him and discovered that the pull was located beneath the icy pool.

Having determined the direction, Hongyun fled directly into the icy pool, silently reciting the "Entering Water" technique from the Earthly Fiend Divine Power.

The icy pool water was kept out of the red clouds.

The cold pool was very deep. As the red clouds moved downstream, the visibility became dim, and the chill grew stronger.

Hongyun didn't know how deep he had been swimming, but the chill in the cold pool made him feel cold.

But Hongyun was not afraid. Instead, he frantically circulated his cultivation technique, absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy and converting it into magical power.

In this environment, Hongyun discovered that his cultivation speed was much faster than outside, as the concentration of innate spiritual energy here was unmatched by any other place.

While cultivating in the icy pool, Hongyun never forgot to look for something that had attracted him there.

But for some reason, when he sank into the cold pool, that strange feeling disappeared.

Hongyun wasn't in a hurry. He believed that they would meet again if they were meant to, and he would take this opportunity to cultivate himself properly.

After an unknown amount of time, Hongyun suddenly unleashed a powerful aura, and his cultivation level finally broke through a small level, advancing from the mid-stage Golden Immortal to the late-stage Golden Immortal.

After years of being devoured by the red clouds, the innate spiritual energy in the cold pool has become much thinner.

Soon, that strange sensation reappeared, and Hongyun flew over following the sensation, where a huge piece of dark blue cold jade appeared before him.

A jade tree grows on the cold jade, emanating a chilling aura. It should be the source of the chilling aura of the cold pool, but it is unknown what kind of spiritual root this tree is.
