The Heavens: One World, One Superpower

Day two.

"System, draw today's items."

[Item draw in progress today. Successful draw. Please choose one of the following three items.]

[The Origin of the Innate Dao Body: From the Immortal Mausoleum of the Forbidden Zone of Life, the Celestial Venerable of Immortality]

[The Ancient Seal of Taiyin: The Tomb of the Taiyin Holy Emperor in the Ziwei Star Region]

[The Beginningless Sutra: A Giant Stone Book from Purple Mountain in the Northern Region]

"Wow, what a grand gesture!"

Su Chen couldn't help but gasp when he saw the items the system had drawn that day.

Changtian Tianzun, one of the nine Heavenly Venerables of the mythological era, created the "Zhe" Secret. Su Chen drew the "Zhe" Secret yesterday, but unexpectedly encountered its creator today.

Su Chen pondered the plot and came across the experiences of the Eternal Heavenly Venerable.

This person originated from the mythical era and harbored an extreme obsession with immortality, hence the name "Secret Creator." After severing his Dao Fruit, he secluded himself in the Immortal Mausoleum, becoming its master. In his pursuit of immortality, he repeatedly instigated dark upheavals. When the path to immortality opened, he launched the largest-scale dark upheaval, resulting in a mutual destruction with the Great Accomplished Holy Body.

"Having extracted the innate Dao body essence of the Celestial Venerable of Longevity, he won't die immediately, will he? After all, he has lived long enough. Once his essence is gone, his lifespan will probably end immediately."

Su Chen saw the second option.

The Taiyin Ancient Seal is the ultimate imperial weapon of the Taiyin Holy Emperor, also known as the Taiyin Human Emperor Seal. It was forged using Taiyin primordial divine materials and ancient mysterious ice. It belongs to the treasures of human destiny and is specifically used to suppress dark turmoil.

"This treasure should not be moved lightly. Although it is an ultimate imperial weapon, let's leave it in place to suppress the human race's fortune."

He looked at the third option.

"The scriptures of the Great Emperor Wushi are said to be so powerful that once completed, there are no other scriptures in the world. They can reduce all power and laws to nothingness and return them to their origin. Unfortunately, only those with the innate holy body and Dao embryo can do this, but they are still excellent for studying."

After comparing the two options, Su Chen made a decision.

"System, select the first item: the origin of the innate Dao body."

"Extraction of the Primordial Dao Source in progress, extraction successful."

Su Chen did not choose to absorb it, but instead had the system put it into the Devouring Demon Jar for storage.

After breaking through the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm and fully absorbing the Great Completion Overlord Body Origin, I will use the Innate Dao Body Origin to continue to challenge my realm.

A vast burst of divine light appeared inside the Devouring Demon Jar.

Within the divine light, two divine runes were evolving.

Sometimes it transforms into an infant, sometimes into a teenager, sometimes into a young adult, sometimes into a middle-aged person, and sometimes into an elderly person.

Old age transforms into divine script, and divine script transforms into infants.

It goes on and on, unchanging for a long time.

The divine light illuminated the pitch-black space of the Devouring Demon Jar, filling it with primordial energy.

Under Su Chen's mental perception, the two divine characters appeared in his eyes. "Truly profound. With just these two characters, one could probably cultivate supreme divine abilities."

A scream echoed from within the Immortal Tomb.

The sound was mournful and loud, carrying far and wide.

Ordinary cultivators cannot hear it, and even powerful beings at the Sendai level can only hear it very vaguely. Only Emperor-level experts throughout the entire universe can hear it clearly.

No matter how far away, the screams could be heard.

In particular, the supreme beings within the Immortal Mausoleum have all been revived.

"What exactly happened?"

"That seems to be the voice of the Lord of the Immortal Tomb, the Celestial Venerable of Longevity."

"Is he going to fall too?"

"The path to immortality was about to begin, but he ultimately did not live to see it; his dream of immortality came to naught."

The supreme rulers of various restricted areas all expressed their feelings.

Only the Ruthless Great Emperor in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land smiled slightly, "Interesting. The innate Dao body origin appeared in the Devouring Demon Jar, and that old dog, the Eternal Life Celestial Venerable, died. You've really given me a big surprise."

Unbeknownst to Su Chen, his every move was being clearly perceived by the Ruthless Great Emperor through the Devouring Demon Jar.

At this moment, two young cultivators were sitting in the main seats of the Liu family's living room, drinking tea.

Old Master Liu, Liu Xiongshan, and Liu Hushan knelt on the ground, both of them sweating profusely and trembling.

The cultivator on the left with triangular eyes asked, "How are the preparations for the virgin boys and girls going?"

Old Master Liu said, "Reporting to the Immortal Master, the boy and girl are ready. We will throw them into the river tomorrow when we worship the River God."

The triangular-eyed cultivator nodded and said, "This has become a routine matter; the River God trusts your Liu family. Yesterday, a red light enveloped your house; did some treasure appear?"

Old Master Liu said, "Immortal, you are wise. My Liu family is just an ordinary family. We have been favored by the River God and become the village chiefs. How could we not be grateful? If we have any treasures, we should offer them to the River God immediately."

The triangular-eyed cultivator said, "That divine light clearly appeared in your Liu family, yet you dare to lie."

The cultivator's aura suddenly erupted, pressing Old Master Liu to the ground, unable to speak or move, his old face flushed red, clearly in great discomfort.

Liu Xiongshan hurriedly said, "To be honest, Immortal Master, a man and a woman recently came to my Liu family. Yesterday's red light came from the man's room. At the time, everyone in the village thought there was a fire and rushed to put it out with buckets of water. But the red light disappeared, and the man came out and said there was no fire. My brother and I took them out of the village, and my father led people in to search, but they didn't find any treasures."

Another cultivator with deadpan eyes said, "Why wasn't something so important said from the beginning?"

Liu Xiongshan said, "The boy looks to be only twelve or thirteen years old, and the girl is only fifteen or sixteen. We think that even if they are capable, they are just little kids and it is not worth troubling the immortal with such a trivial matter."

The dead-fish-eyed monk said, "This is a trivial matter in your eyes, but it might ruin Lord River God's important plans. Where are those men and women? Take us there to see them."

After saying that, he stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, as if he was thinking of some delicious food.

The triangular-eyed cultivator withdrew his imposing aura, while Old Man Liu was panting heavily and drenched in sweat.

The triangular-eyed cultivator said, "Brother, remember to save one for me."

The dead-fish-eyed cultivator laughed, "We brothers share both good fortune and hardship. This manor has been chosen by the River God, so neither you nor I can move it without permission. However, outsiders are not allowed here."

Old Master Liu said, "You two immortal masters, could you please spare that girl? I wish to take her as a concubine. I promise to find you ten men to provide for your needs."

The dead-fish-eyed cultivator snorted coldly and said, "Remember your place, how dare you bargain with me." With a wave of his hand, Old Master Liu was sent flying, crashing into the door and spitting out several mouthfuls of blood. It was unclear whether he was dead or alive.

Liu Xiongshan and Liu Hushan rushed over and checked on him; thankfully, he was still alive.

Liu Xiongshan said, "Hushan, take your father away and take good care of him. I will guide the two immortals."

Inside the room, Su Chen couldn't help but chuckle and said, "I didn't expect that old man to be so young at heart, actually wanting to take you as a concubine."

Ji Ziyue glared at Su Chen and said, "All you do is make sarcastic remarks. I can't stand it anymore. I'm going to beat that old man to death and skin those two vixens alive."

The two of them used their divine senses to perceive everything that was happening in the manor.

From the moment these two cultivators appeared on the estate, their divine senses issued a warning, and they witnessed everything that had just happened.

Su Chen and Ji Ziyue walked out of the room and were less than ten meters away when they bumped into Liu Xiongshan leading two cultivators.

Liu Xiongshan said, "These are the two immortal masters."

The triangular-eyed cultivator licked his lips; his tongue was long and thin, branching out, and as red as blood. "Not bad, the qi and blood are rich; consuming this is equivalent to a month of my arduous cultivation."

The dead-fish-eyed cultivator said, "This man's qi and blood are much stronger, he's mine. The woman is yours, any objections?"

The triangular-eyed cultivator said, "I will follow your instructions, elder brother."

Ji Ziyue's cheeks bulged out two puffs, and she threw out a handkerchief, which instantly turned into a purple light and enveloped the two cultivators.

The handkerchief bulged and then deflated, and the two people struggled inside, soon transforming into a long blue snake and a yellow toad.

Ji Ziyue put away the handkerchief; the two fairies were already on the verge of death.

Liu Xiongshan knelt down and cried out, "Grandma, spare us! It's all because of these two monsters that we've been harmed!"

Ji Ziyue said, "Hmph, you were originally chosen by some river god to harm the villagers, do you think we don't know?" She unleashed a divine light, binding Liu Xiongshan.

Liu Xiongshan said, "We are wronged. We were forced to do this. The river god requires the village to offer a pair of boys and girls as sacrifices every year. It's not just our Liu Family Village; all the villages along the Bailong River do this."

Ji Ziyue frowned and said, "You all need to explain the origins of the river god to me one by one."

Liu Xiongshan recounted everything he knew about the River God.

It turns out that hundreds of years ago, a black snake appeared in the Bailong River, claiming to be the river god. It stirred up storms and flooded fertile fields. The people on both banks had no choice but to build a temple to worship it, and every year they offered a pair of children as tribute.

Only then did the black snake cease its scourge upon the people, and it became a revered deity in villages on both sides of the strait.

Ji Ziyue said, "It's clearly a snake demon, yet it calls itself a god. It's utterly ridiculous."

She looked at the two demons on the ground and said, "Tell me about the snake demon's situation, and I might consider sparing your lives."

The green snake demon said, "The River God is a great cultivator from the Dao Palace Secret Realm. You two little brats can deal with me, but you can't deal with the River God. If you know what's good for you, let us go."

Ji Ziyue slapped him from a distance and said, "Hmph, a mere Dao Palace secret realm dares to call itself a great cultivator. You're like a frog in a well, unable to see the immensity of the sky and the earth."

The green snake demon lost two fangs with a slap and lay limply on the ground.

Ji Ziyue looked at the yellow-skinned toad demon and said, "Do you also want to lose a couple of teeth?"

The yellow-skinned toad demon trembled all over and said, "Grandma, I'll tell you everything. There's a cave at the bottom of the White Dragon River, more than fifty miles from here, where that snake demon cultivates."

Ji Ziyue said, "Take us there." She immediately emitted a divine light that pierced through the head of the Green Serpent Demon, killing it. She took out a jade bottle, pointed it at the Green Serpent Demon's corpse, and uttered the word "collect." Many profound Dao patterns appeared on the jade bottle, and a white light emanated from the mouth of the bottle, pulling the Green Serpent Demon's soul from afar and collecting it into the jade bottle.

Upon seeing this, the yellow-skinned toad spirit was so frightened that it defecated and urinated.

Su Chen replied, "We must eradicate evil completely. These people are harming the village; they cannot be allowed to live."

Ji Ziyue nodded and said, "They did deserve to die."

Liu Xiongshan cried out in terror, "Grandma, Grandpa, please spare us! If it weren't for the demon's persecution, we wouldn't have harmed the villagers."

Ji Ziyue hesitated and said, "What he said makes sense; it's all the fault of the demons."

Liu Xiongshan was overjoyed and said, "That's right, my aunt and uncle, my Liu family will distribute all our land, gold and silver to the villagers as compensation for them over the years."

Su Chen said calmly, "That old man wants to take you as a concubine."

Ji Ziyue's eyes immediately flashed with brilliance, and she said angrily, "I almost forgot about that. He really isn't a good person."

Liu Xiongshan cried out urgently, "No! I'll kill that old bastard right now!"

Ji Ziyue sneered and immediately unleashed a divine light, crushing Liu Xiongshan to death. She then used her divine sense to crush Old Master Liu, who was lying on the bed, and Liu Hushan, who was taking care of him, to death as well. She then bound the yellow-skinned toad demon and transformed into a streak of light, flying out of the manor.

The Bailong River is turbulent and 700 to 800 meters wide, with snow-white waves rising and falling.

The wind was strong on the river, causing their clothes to flutter.

The toad spirit pointed to the water below and said, "The black snake demon's cave is down there."

Ji Ziyue crushed the toad demon to death, then used the jade bottle to collect its soul again, and laughed, "Seventeen of the thirty tasks involving the demonic beasts of the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm have been completed."

Su Chen said, "We don't know what level of the Dao Palace realm the snake demon below is at. Let's set up an array to lure it out and then destroy it with the array."

Ji Ziyue nodded and said, "That's right, I'll make the arrangements."

He immediately took out many array flags from his storage artifact and distributed them around the area. Then he took out a metal disc, channeled divine power into it, and instantly runes appeared in mid-air, forming a continuous pattern.

Ji Ziyue said, "This is the Azure Water Spirit Locking Array, which can deal with cultivators at the peak of the Dao Palace Secret Realm. Hundreds or even thousands of jade chains are emitted from the array to bind the cultivator and extract his spiritual power. It is a rare and powerful attack array."

Su Chen said, "That's right, you wait for me upstairs, I'll go lure the snake demon out."

Ji Ziyue immediately flew to a grove of trees, concealed her aura, and waited for Su Chen to lure the snake demon.

Su Chen plunged into the river and used his divine power to wrap himself up and isolate himself from the water vapor.

His divine sense surged forth, sweeping across the seven or eight hundred-meter-wide river, but he found nothing. He then extended his divine sense to a range of three thousand meters, and finally found a spiritual energy node.

When I probed inside with my divine sense, I found many fairies guarding the place.

Further inside, stretching for thousands of meters, they finally saw a giant black python, about a hundred meters long, coiled up in the cave.

The furnishings of the cave dwelling were not much different from those of human palaces, only the style was rough.

Su Chen thought to himself, "It's actually a demon at the peak of the Dao Palace realm."

Without hesitation, having cultivated the Pre-Word Secret, he possessed a divine sense that surpassed a major realm, but he explored the past with the strength of the Wheel Sea Secret Realm.

The black serpent demon opened its eyes, transformed into a wisp of black smoke, and gave chase. "How dare you, a mere cultivator from the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm, disturb your Dao Palace grandfather's cultivation?"

It moved extremely fast and arrived in front of us in no time.

Su Chen then took out a long sword, activated his divine power, and stabbed at the black snake.

The black snake swung its tail, deflecting the longsword.

Su Chen quickly swam towards the surface of the water.

The black snake gave chase, saying, "You think you can escape after messing with your grandpa, the black snake?"
