Gu He had forcibly seized Queen Medusa's Heavenly Flames and injured the four Grand Elders.

If not for the vast disparity in their strength, he and Queen Medusa would have long become mortal enemies.

Gu He was almost certain that once Queen Medusa's strength improved, she would definitely seek revenge against him.

Given the grudge between them, it was practically impossible for Gu He to take Queen Medusa as his disciple.

However, this was not difficult for Gu He.

When the time came, he only needed to assume a different identity. If the timing was right, he might be able to deceive Queen Medusa and take her into his fold.

Still, it was too early to speak of such things.

To take someone in the Dou Zong Realm as a disciple, he would at least need to raise his own strength to the Dou Zun Realm first.

Shaking his head, Gu He temporarily set these thoughts aside and turned his gaze back to the many treasures before him.

Then, Gu He reached into the pile of treasures and took out a jade box.

When he opened the jade box, a mass of emerald liquid lay inside, flowing ceaselessly within the box as though it were alive.

Looking at the emerald liquid in his hand, a smile appeared on Gu He's lips.

At that moment, his System Space was piled high with natural treasures. With Gu He's current standards, he did not even bother looking at ordinary treasures.

Yet this spiritual treasure within the jade box made his eyes light up.

If Gu He were to rate the treasures before him, this mass of emerald liquid would be worthy of a nine.

This emerald liquid was called Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, a top-tier seventh-grade spiritual treasure.

In the eyes of most people, it was even comparable to an eighth-grade spiritual treasure.

On the Dou Qi Continent, there was a legend that in ancient times, there existed a miraculous ancient tree known as the Bodhi Ancient Tree.

At the tree's roots, buried deep beneath the earth, the accumulation of countless years would gradually form a viscous, heart-shaped object with miraculous effects. Thus, some also called it a Bodhi Heart. Generally speaking, however, a Bodhi tree required at least a thousand years of accumulation to form a Bodhi Heart.

Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva was a miraculous substance secreted from the surface of the Bodhi Heart.

If consumed, this Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva could transform one's body and improve certain abnormal constitutions. Its effects were extremely miraculous.

As for the Bodhi Heart, it could truly be called a spiritual treasure of heaven and earth, nurtured by the world's spiritual energy. It was said that if someone consumed this divine object, it could gradually replace their heart. In that case, even if their heart suffered a fatal blow, they might still preserve their life.

Moreover, the power the Bodhi Heart could provide was far greater than that of an ordinary heart.

Of course, most importantly, it could continuously nourish the soul and gradually strengthen it. To an alchemist, this was an absolutely irresistible temptation.

It was said that by obtaining some Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, one could obtain information about a Bodhi Heart.

This was also why Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva could rival an eighth-grade spiritual treasure.

"Bodhi Heart..."

As he looked at the Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, Gu He's expression shifted slightly. He wondered whether giving it to one of his disciples would trigger a Ten Thousandfold Return and grant him a Bodhi Heart.

At the thought, Gu He felt a trace of anticipation.

A Bodhi Heart was a legendary ninth-grade spiritual treasure. It was said that after consuming one, even a Nine-star Dou Zun could directly break through into the Dou Saint Realm.

Dou Saints were simply too distant. It was said that experts of that level could shatter mountains and rivers and tear space apart with a mere gesture. The strength of such experts was beyond the imagination of ordinary cultivators.

Holding the Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, Gu He's thoughts drifted.

He had obtained this Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva from the Black Emperor Sect's treasury.

The Black Emperor Sect operated the largest auction house in the entire Black Corner Region, so its treasury naturally contained abundant treasures. This Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva was considered one of the finest spiritual treasures within it.

After putting down the Bodhi Body Transformation Saliva, Gu He took out a black scroll from a nearby pile.

Upon opening the scroll, three sinister black characters were revealed, brimming with a soul-stealing aura.

Soul Splitting Art!

Gu He's gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at the contents of the scroll.

It was clearly a secret soul technique!

Gu He had found this Soul Splitting Art in the Storage Ring of Elder Yingshan, a Four-star Dou Zong.

Elder Yingshan was an independent cultivator with no sect behind him, so he kept all his treasures in his Storage Ring. This saved Gu He quite a bit of trouble.

In truth, after devouring Elder Yingshan's soul, Gu He had already learned the contents of the Soul Splitting Art.

Back then, Elder Yingshan had used the Soul Splitting Art to create a soul clone to attend the Soul Guard Assembly.

Had Gu He's soul power not been so formidable, he likely would not have noticed that Elder Yingshan's true body was not far from the Black Emperor Pavilion.

As its name implied, the Soul Splitting Art separated a portion of one's soul power and condensed it into a Soul Avatar.

The strength of this Soul Avatar depended on the soul power of the main body.

The stronger the main body's soul power, the stronger the Soul Avatar it condensed.

Furthermore, the Soul Avatar had the exact same aura and appearance as the main body. Unless one's soul power surpassed that of the main body, it was difficult to distinguish between them.

Of course, the Soul Splitting Art was not without restrictions.

Each use of the Soul Splitting Art could condense only one Soul Avatar, and the distance between the main body and the Soul Avatar could not exceed the range of its soul perception.

Elder Yingshan had fallen into Gu He's hands precisely because of this restriction.

Looking at the Soul Splitting Art before him, a smile immediately appeared on Gu He's face.

This time, after sweeping through the entire Black Corner Region, he had acquired quite a few cultivation techniques and secret arts.

But the one that satisfied Gu He most was the secret art of the Heavenly Demon Puppet.

The Soul Splitting Art came second.

Of course, these were not the only treasures that caught Gu He's eye.

From the leader of a force called the Demon Blade Sect, Gu He obtained a Seventh-Grade Pill: the Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill.

After consuming this pill, if one were severely injured or on the brink of death in the future, then with enough luck, it could grant them an opportunity to rise after destruction.

So-called rising after destruction meant breaking through one's former shackles and undergoing a transformation. Whether it was the body, soul, or even Dou Qi, all could rise to a higher level.

From his memories, Gu He learned that the sect master of the Demon Blade Sect had obtained this Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill from an ancient ruin.

As the Demon Blade Sect continued to decline, its sect master had been preparing to put this Seventh-Grade Pill up for auction.

Yet he had never expected to lose his life because of the Soul Guard Assembly.

This Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill could only end up benefiting Gu He.

In fact, Gu He had already consumed a Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill before.

Back when he had bestowed a fourth-grade pill upon Liu Ling, the System's return had granted Gu He a Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill.

The only difference was that the Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill he had consumed was a System product and could not trigger a return.

However, this Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill obtained from the Demon Blade Sect could be bestowed upon a disciple and trigger a Ten Thousandfold Return!

Gu He felt somewhat expectant. Once he bestowed this Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill, what grade of pill would he receive in return?

A ninth-grade pill?

Or perhaps an emperor-grade pill?
