Starting with being handed over to the Imperial Concubine, building a family with a thousand-year hi

At that time, several veteran martial gods were hiding on Tianyuan Star. Moen, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, dared not reveal his whereabouts. If he were discovered by the local martial gods, he would surely die. He was too badly injured and did not have the strength to open the space traverse again to return to the star palace.

Left with no other choice, Moen had to conceal his whereabouts and dive into the deep East China Sea to avoid danger.

He clearly sensed that it was only a matter of time before his life was cut off, and there was no way to reverse it.

In order to seek a chance to be reborn and possess another body, Moen searched the entire East China Sea for a suitable place to lay down his eternal rest. He finally chose an archipelago consisting of eight islands, which is now the Black Stone Islands.

The reason for choosing this location is quite simple: deep beneath these archipelago lies a vast and pure sea of ​​Kunling Divine Fire. The dual water and fire domains, combined with the enclosed secret space, can both isolate him from external detection and continuously absorb the life essence of those who have died in battle, perfectly matching his rebirth plan.

After selecting the burial site, Moen exhausted his last remaining cultivation to personally forge a giant black coffin, set up a complete hunting secret realm, and at the same time refined four specially made divine talismans to seal them. He then placed the talismans in four different locations in the heart of the Tianyuan Continent as bait to lure powerful individuals into the game.

As he sorted through the information, a unique racial habit of the Three-Eyed Clan flooded into Su Mu's mind, allowing him to fully understand the underlying logic of the entire trap.

The Three-Eyed Clan is born with a vertical eye between their eyebrows, containing an undying flame of will. All the strong members of the clan always make thorough preparations in advance for their own demise in the outer realms. Forging their own mortal coffin and setting up a body-seizing formation are instincts etched into their blood. Even if the hope of rebirth is slim, they will never give up any glimmer of hope.

Moen had long foreseen his inevitable death, and thus made all the necessary preparations in advance. After his physical body perished, he used the talent of the Three-Eyed Clan bloodline to seal a wisp of his original Dao Soul will in the vertical eye between his eyebrows. His physical body completely perished, but his will remained dormant in the coffin, waiting for a suitable vessel to take over.

This wisp of Dao Soul will hidden in the vertical eye was his only trump card to overcome life and death and complete the body-seizing and reversal. It was this will that allowed him to ignore the soul defense of the Imperial Crown and rush straight to Su Mu's sea of ​​consciousness.

In addition, Moen's calculations were ruthless and far-sighted.

He deliberately placed a thousand-year seal on the four divine bait talismans. Starting from the day of his death, a full thousand years later, the seal on the talismans would automatically be released, releasing an aura of opportunity to lure powerful figures from the continent into the game.

He had already foreseen the course of the cosmic war: within a thousand years, the Black Mist Ghost Clan would definitely launch a full-scale invasion of Tianyuan Star. Moreover, before the war began, all the Martial God powerhouses native to Tianyuan Star would be forcibly conscripted by the Cosmic Alliance to go to the front lines of other star systems to resist the Ghost Clan.

A thousand years from now, there will be no Martial God on Tianyuan Star, and the strongest person on the entire continent will only reach the Martial Emperor realm.

The strongest cultivator who enters the secret realm at that time will only be at the Martial Emperor level. Without the suppression of the Martial God's soul and martial pressure, his dormant Dao Soul will can easily complete the possession and be perfectly reborn.

The meticulously planned and interconnected scheme, spanning a millennium, is truly flawless.

Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. What he encountered was not an ordinary Martial Emperor prodigy, but Su Mu, who possessed countless trump cards and had a built-in system that granted him immunity and purification abilities to his soul.

Su Mu slowly opened his eyes, his gaze deep and his heart filled with countless emotions.

Previously, he thought that reaching the Martial God Realm was the pinnacle of martial arts in this world. But after reading Moen's complete memories, he finally understood that the Martial God Realm was never the end, but merely a new starting point on the path of martial arts in the vast universe.

The battles between the Black Mist Clan and all the races and top powers of the universe have lasted for billions of years, with the flames of war spreading across countless star systems. Tianyuan Star is located on the edge of the universe, a remote star caught in the crossfire of war. Therefore, no top Black Mist Clan experts have descended upon it, nor have any top-tier combat forces from extraterrestrial races settled there, making it relatively peaceful.

Immediately afterwards, the complete subdivision of the Martial God Realm was clearly imprinted in Su Mu's mind:

The divine embryo gives birth to a deity, which is the early stage of the Martial God Realm;

The Martial Aspect undergoes a transformation and sublimation, evolving into a Dao Soul, which is the mid-stage of the Martial God Realm;

When one's natal divine fire is completely tempered and transformed into a Dao fire, one reaches the late stage of the Martial God Realm.

Su Mu turned to look at Moen's remaining corpse on the ground, then looked at the dark black fire floating in the air, and suddenly everything became clear.

"So that's how it is. Moen is a true late-stage Martial God Realm expert. His black flame is not an ordinary divine fire at all, but a black Dao fire that has been tempered and formed. The grade of Dao fire is above that of divine fire. No wonder my Purple-Gold Divine Fire, which has been fused with Phoenix Divine Fire, is still completely suppressed by it."

"At the same time, he had already completed the transformation of his divine form and forged his own Dao Soul. The Dao Soul's will transcends the ordinary divine soul attack system, so he can ignore the soul defense of the Imperial Crown and directly invade my sea of ​​consciousness."

Having clarified all the differences in combat strength, Su Mu no longer hesitated and continued to peruse his memories, searching for an escape route from the secret realm.

Moments later, the evacuation rules became completely clear.

The secret realm's water and fire domains will continue to shrink autonomously. Once the underground Kunling Divine Fire Sea and the blue ocean above have both shrunk to a radius of a thousand feet, the central black platform will spontaneously disintegrate, and the black coffin will transform into a black spatial vortex. Cultivators who step into the vortex can be directly teleported back to the Black Stone Islands in the outside world.

Su Mu looked up and surveyed his surroundings. The sea of ​​fire and water had already approached a thousand feet in size, and the spatial fluctuations were becoming increasingly intense.

"Time is running out; we must prepare for evacuation as soon as possible."

As soon as he finished speaking, Moen's alien corpse on the ground lost its last link with his soul and began to dry up and decay at a visible speed, its thousand-year-old body completely collapsing.

Su Mu stepped forward, removed an ancient storage ring from the corpse's fingertip, and put it into his pocket. Then, his gaze locked onto the black Dao Flame that was quietly floating in the air.

He immediately realized the special constraints of the Dao Fire: Dao Fire surpasses Divine Fire, and its properties far exceed those of any storage device in the world. It cannot be directly stored in the system warehouse, nor can it be stored in ordinary storage rings. Only exclusive fire-attribute treasures of the treasure bottle type can temporarily seal and store it.

He currently has no corresponding fire-attribute treasure bottle, and the secret realm is about to open, so he doesn't have time to go out and search for magical artifacts.

Su Mu immediately made a decision, activating the Purple-Gold Divine Fire within his body that had been fused and upgraded by the Phoenix Divine Fire. At the same time, he swallowed an Extreme Dao Dragon Essence Pill to maximize his physical body and divine fire combat power. Using his own original divine fire as a cage, he layered and wrapped the black Dao Fire, attempting to forcefully fuse with it.

The Purple-Gold Divine Flame merges with the Undying Phoenix's Origin, boasting unparalleled endurance, self-healing, and devouring abilities, making it compatible with ordinary Dao Flames. Its only drawback is its extremely slow fusion speed.

Strands of black fire were slowly devoured, entangled, and intertwined by the purple-gold divine fire. The two extreme flames, one purple and one black, slowly merged, and a faint, dark black light quietly enveloped Su Mu's entire body.

Just as the two flames were halfway merging, the entire platform suddenly trembled violently, the earth shook, and the secret realm space reached its critical value.

A deafening roar echoed throughout the secret realm, and a massive amount of pure spatial energy surged forth from beneath the high platform, pouring entirely into the shattered black coffin below.

Click—click—

The incredibly hard, thousand-year-old sealed black coffin shattered inch by inch, wood chips and stone dust dissipated with the wind, and a high-speed rotating, deep, dark spatial vortex appeared out of thin air, with spatial turbulence faintly churning at the edge of the vortex.

The evacuation route is now fully formed.

Without the slightest hesitation, Su Mu unleashed a protective aura of purple-gold and black flames around his body, leaping directly into the black vortex. To guard against any unforeseen events during spatial traversal, he kept the Great Teleportation Token firmly in his hand, reserving it as his last trump card for survival.

A dizzying sensation swept over his entire body, and spatial turbulence tore at his flesh. Fortunately, the Imperial Body was indestructible, and with the protection of two layers of divine fire, this pressure was completely harmless.
