Good Stuff
The world, shrouded in gray fog, stretched endlessly.
The moment they stepped into the Primal Chaos Heavenly Gate, the seven powerful auras that had been gathered in one place scattered and fled at the same time.
The Void-Soaring Sword Venerable transformed into an extremely sharp platinum sword rainbow, piercing straight into the suspended golden pool at the core of the ruins.
With a flick of his Reverend Heavenly Balance sent the radiance of the Nine Luminaries into the white jade ruins on the side.
The Bone-Corroding Demon Venerable chuckled repeatedly, his eerie ghostly flames skimming the ground before disappearing into the folds of the Void in the blink of an eye.
The other three reclusive Mahayana Great Vehicle, each carrying a key, also harbored their own ulterior motives. They instantly spread out tens of thousands of miles apart, fearing that falling behind even half a step would allow someone else to get their hands on the Imperial Dao Divine Liquid first.
Only Chen Fan remained standing still.
He stood barefoot on the scorched earth, his white robe trailing behind him, his expression serene.
In the Sea of Consciousness, the dark red fragment, peeling off its rust, was incredibly hot, but it pointed not to the dazzling golden pool in the center, but to a completely collapsed and ruined palace on the west side.
"Everyone's staring at that upside-down black tower, aren't they afraid of bursting their stomachs?"
Chen Fan slightly raised his eyes and glanced at the dark ancient tower in the center, which seemed to be hanging upside down thousands of feet in the sky.
The Death Fiend Qi swirling around the tower was so dense it was impossible to dissipate, faintly emanating a strange deathly intent that even made the Martial God True Spirit within him tremble slightly. It was definitely not a blessed land for inheritance, but more like a forbidden prison of absolute punishment that suppressed eternal evil.
Those who are in a hurry to be reincarnated cannot be stopped.
Chen Fan withdrew his gaze, his figure swayed slightly, and like a weightless white mist, he silently swept westward.
Tens of thousands of miles of scorched earth rushed past beneath our feet.
The route was littered with broken ancient Immortal Dao weapons and crystalline immortal bones, and the Void was crisscrossed with long-standing imperial rifts. If an ordinary cultivator who had reached the Dao Integration stage were to accidentally touch even a wisp of remaining imperial might, he would instantly turn into a blood mist.
However, a faint Black-and-White Dao Rhythm surrounded Chen Fan, and before those violent Spatial Turbulences could even get close, they were silently ground down and assimilated by the Life-and-Death Millstone within the Divine Kingdom.
Half an incense stick later, a collapsed fairy garden stretching for thousands of miles came into view.
A broken white jade corridor column was inserted diagonally into the mire, and the word "Baicao" could be faintly discerned on the collapsed plaque.
Although the entire Immortal Garden had been destroyed for ten thousand years, deep within the core of the earth's veins, a faint, rich medicinal fragrance still emanated, causing ripples to spread through the Void.
After passing through the remnants of numerous restrictions, Chen Fan stopped in front of a collapsed underground palace of the Pill Hall.
Deep within the underground rift valley, an ancient jade pool, hundreds of feet in diameter, sits quietly. The pool is filled with a viscous, cheese-like, jade-white liquid, and wisps of heavy, mountain-like Xuanhuang Mother Qi slowly rise from the surface, causing the surrounding Void to slightly dent.
The Primordial Ninth-Turn Jade Marrow Pool.
The divine object used by the former Divine Dynasty to cleanse the marrow and refine the blood of the imperial Imperial Son has, over the years, not only retained its medicinal power but has also transformed into the purest essence of Creation through sedimentation.
"They've picked up a ready-made one, after all."
Chen Fan smiled slightly, about to take a step forward.
Hiss!
A sharp shriek, sharp enough to pierce the Sea of Consciousness, suddenly exploded from the shadows above the Jade Marrow Pool!
Thick black mist crashed down from the dome, and eight pairs of scarlet eyes tore through the darkness. A terrifying behemoth, over a thousand feet long, slowly crawled out from the depths of the Void.
It was a Primordial Era giant spider covered in white bone barbs. Its carapace was covered with mottled purplish-black patterns, and its eight thick spider legs, hundreds of feet long, resembled bronze spears, emanating a nauseating, sweet-smelling death aura.
A Primordial Era and exotic species, the Nine Netherworlds Nether Marrow Spider.
Its aura was incredibly violent, reaching the Early Great Vehicle! This ferocious creature had clearly been lurking by the Jade Marrow Pool for tens of thousands of years, regarding the spiritual liquid in the pool as its private property.
Sensing the intrusion of a living being, the giant spider's eight blood-red eyes surged with murderous intent, and its ferocious mandibles suddenly burst open!
Sizzle!
A pitch-black spiderweb, obscuring the sky and emitting overwhelming poison, instantly sealed off all escape routes from the entire underground palace. The spider silk was coated with a Primordial Era poison that corroded the Divine Soul; even the protective True Essence of Great Vehicle expert would be completely dissolved within three breaths upon contact.
Faced with the overwhelming poison barrier, Chen Fan didn't even pause for a second.
He raised his fair right hand and twirled his five fingers in the Void.
Buzz!
A massive black and white Life-and-Death Millstone suddenly condensed in his palm, with Two Gray-White Qis circulating, and the rules of heaven and earth were reversed at this moment.
The pitch-black poison net, powerful enough to forge Great Vehicle physical body, failed to corrode the Millstone at all upon impact. Instead, it was ground down like a soybean falling into the millstone's eye, transforming into the most Origin Source Yin Death Fiend Qi, which was then drawn into Chen Fan's Dantian Divine Kingdom with a whooshing sound.
The poison entered his stomach, causing the Death Formation Core to tremble slightly. Far from being harmed, it became a great tonic.
The giant spider's blood-red eyes narrowed sharply, clearly not expecting that this seemingly frail white-clad youth would possess such domineering methods.
Enraged beyond measure, the giant spider hissed, its massive demonic body tearing through the Void. Its eight sharp, bronze spear-like legs, accompanied by a deafening sonic boom, moved with lightning speed, aiming straight for Chen Fan's vital points!
Eight pitch-black holes, both open and transparent, were forcibly pierced through the Void!
Chen Fan remained expressionless and took half a step towards the spear that was tearing through the Void.
Click!
He reached out with his left hand, dodging the afterimages at an incredible angle, and with his five fingers together, he caught the tip of the spider leg that was thrusting towards him from the front.
The bone spear, capable of piercing Supreme Spirit Treasures, struck his palm with a piercing, metallic clang, yet failed to leave a single white mark!
"Too soft."
Chen Fan uttered two words indifferently, his arm muscles tensed slightly, and pure Demonic Qi power erupted.
Tear!
He snapped off the hundred-foot-long bronze spider legs with his bare hands, and the Purple-Black, foul-smelling demon blood sprayed out like a torrential rain!
The giant spider let out a shrill cry of pain, its massive body twisting violently as its other seven legs swept out like a madman. Chen Fan's figure moved like a ghost, passing through afterimages, his bare feet shattering the Void, and he instantly appeared atop the giant spider's enormous head.
He flipped his right palm down, without any fancy moves, and pressed it against the giant spider's crown.
The true meaning of the Life-and-Death Millstone: reversal!
Boom!
A grayish-white halo suddenly exploded from his palm, and Pure Yang domineering energy mixed with the deathly intent to annihilate everything poured into the giant spider 'Sea of Consciousness.
The giant spider's thousand-foot-long body suddenly stiffened, and the ancient runes on its carapace shattered inch by inch. Under this palm strike, the enormous Great Vehicle -level demon soul had no room to struggle and was instantly crushed into pure fragments of soul power!
With a deafening roar, the massive carcass of the ferocious beast crashed heavily to the ground, utterly lifeless.
With a flick of his sleeve, Chen Fan conjured a dark vortex from the Black-and-White Millstone within his Divine Kingdom, swallowing the entire thousand-foot-tall demon corpse whole and sinking it deep into the Death Formation Core to slowly melt it down.
The whole process was swift and efficient, taking no more than two breaths.
The underground palace returned to deathly silence, except for the jade marrow pool that still radiated a warm glow.
Chen Fan brushed the dust off his clothes, leaped into the Jade Marrow Pool, and sat down cross-legged.
