The Primordial Sacred Body's Curse

"Splash..."

As the waves surged, Zhou Tong, Ye Fan, and Ji Ziyue burst out of the water, finally letting out a long breath.

Looking out, there is a vast lake, its waters a boundless expanse of turquoise. The lake's surface is emerald green, like a piece of jade adorning the earth.

Zhou Tong carried the two of them to the shore.

"Finally, we're free..." Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue breathed a sigh of relief, feeling like they had escaped a disaster.

On the shore, ancient trees reached for the sky, their leaves a vibrant green, and the two of them completely relaxed.

At this moment, Zhou Tong quietly looked at his Ten Cave Heaven Divine Rings, his heart at peace.

"The amount of Profound Yellow Mother Qi I collected is actually more than the amount of Mother Qi Root Ye Fan received, enough to forge a treasure even larger than Ye Fan's cauldron; but unfortunately, the quality of the two is not in the same league at all!" Zhou Tong felt somewhat helpless.

In terms of power, Zhou Tong's Profound Yellow Qi and Ye Fan's Profound Yellow Mother Qi are comparable. However, the difference lies in the fact that one is the root and the other is the branches and leaves.

Ye Fan's cauldron was entirely forged from the Root of Profound Yellow Mother Qi. As long as the spiritual energy doesn't dissipate, the cauldron will be able to regenerate endless Profound Yellow Qi in the future, endlessly; just like a tree root, it only needs time and nutrients to grow into a forest.

Just like Ye Fan's cauldron, it was only the size of a fist when it was first forged; but as it grew, the weight and volume of the cauldron also increased. This is the result of the continuous propagation of the Root of Mother Qi.

However, Zhou Tong's small Profound Yellow Qi was pure Profound Yellow Qi. Although this amount was more than enough to forge a powerful artifact, it was far inferior to Ye Fan's cauldron, as Profound Yellow Qi could not be continuously replenished.

"I haven't collected enough Profound Yellow Qi, and most importantly, I don't have a source. If this Profound Yellow Qi is integrated into the Hegemonic Bell, it can increase the power of the Hegemonic Bell to some extent, but the effect will be limited..." Zhou Tong felt somewhat helpless as he thought about it.

Although this Profound Yellow Mother Qi could certainly be used to forge a powerful artifact like a cauldron, a tower, or a bell, compared to the current Hegemonic Bell, it might not be beneficial to rush into it. It's better to leave it for later study.

"Let's leave these Profound Yellow Qi aside for now. Focusing on mastering the Hegemonic Bell is the right thing to do!" Zhou Tong roughly calculated in his mind and understood the value of these Profound Yellow Qi Profound Yellow Qi, as well as that they wouldn't have much effect on him for the time being.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Ji Ziyue became restless. She patted Ye Fan's shoulder, revealing a smile. Her Jingjing little tiger teeth and cute dimples appeared at the same time. She said, "Hey, hey, hey, we've been through thick and thin together, we're practically brothers in arms. Why don't you let me go? Now it's time to share the good times and bad times. Quickly share my Profound Yellow Essence with me."

She was incredibly outgoing and acted as if she belonged to someone else, immediately asking Ye Fan for favors.

"Indeed, it's time to share the joys and sorrows!" Ye Fan smiled, then patted the seat next to him, gesturing for Ji Ziyue to sit down. "Write down the scriptures of your Ji Family for me!"

Ji Ziyue was shocked, her eyes filled with disbelief. "You're a robber!"

Ye Fan laughed and said, "That's right, today we're going to rob you! Hand over all your treasures and scriptures."

Ji Ziyue glared at Ye Fan and said, "Hmph, all your treasures and scriptures are gone, all you have left is your immortal life!"

"You're quite the bachelor, but in your words, I have countless ways to deal with you!" Ye Fan smiled and didn't say anything more. Instead, he turned his attention to his own Wheel Sea to examine the Root of Profound Yellow Mother Qi and his cauldron.

In his Wheel Sea, the Green Copper Fragment remained motionless, surrounded by a swirling stream of profound Profound Yellow Essence. The shattered cauldron floated and sank, transforming back into the most basic Dao Pattern that merged with the profound yellow essence, becoming indistinguishable from one another.

"If the cauldron is broken, I will reforge it!" Ye Fan hardened his heart and immediately prepared to use his methods to completely fuse the fragments of his cauldron with the Profound Yellow Essence.

At this moment, Zhou Tong spoke up, "Ye Fan, do you know why the Primordial Sacred Body is called a useless body? Why has the Primordial Sacred Body been unable to continue cultivation since the Ancient Desolate Era?"

Upon hearing Zhou Tong's words, Ye Fan, who was about to recast the cauldron, immediately stopped and turned to look at Zhou Tong: "Do you know why?"

Even Ji Ziyue, who was standing to the side, was drawn to Zhou Tong's topic and turned her head with some curiosity.

Zhou Tong nodded and said, "The Primordial Sacred Body isn't actually incapable of cultivation, but rather its cultivation is extremely difficult. However, this is only part of the reason. What's truly terrifying is the curse on the Primordial Sacred Body."

"A curse?" Ye Fan asked, puzzled.

Zhou Tong said calmly, "Someone has used the Nether Emperor's Supreme Treasure to curse your physique. You will suffer a calamity when you are in the Dao Palace Realm, and at the latest, you will be ambushed by the curse when you advance to the Four Extremities Realm."

"The Nether Emperor's Supreme Treasure? What is that?" Ji Ziyue asked curiously.

"That is the supreme treasure of the Nether Emperor, also known as the ' Heaven-Piercing Nether Treasure ' or the ' Heaven-Piercing Immortal Treasure.' This treasure was originally in the hands of the Underworld, and they cursed the Primordial Sacred Body!" Zhou Tong said calmly. "Breaking the curse will be very difficult!"

"It's difficult, which means there's a way? How do we break through it?" Ye Fan's eyes lit up immediately.

Zhou Tong, "There are several ways to break the curse, such as the Divine King Blood!"

"Divine King Blood?" Ye Fan was shocked.

"Legend has it that the blood of gods can cleanse all sins, illuminate the path, and sever karma! The Divine King Body is called the ' Divine King Body ' precisely because it possesses the blood of gods. As long as you can obtain the Divine King Blood, you will have a chance to break the curse!" Zhou Tong said softly.

"You... you're not going to kill my brother, are you?!" Ji Ziyue exclaimed in shock, a hint of fear finally showing in her large eyes.

Zhou Tong glanced at Ji Ziyue and said, "With Ji Haoyue's cultivation level, you think he can withstand the curse from the Nether Emperor's Supreme Treasure? You overestimate him."

"What level of Divine King Blood do you need? Is it the Great Accomplished God King Body?" Ye Fan asked solemnly.

Zhou Tong shook his head and said, "Even Great Accomplished God King isn't qualified. At least Divine King Blood that surpasses Great Completion and breaks through the barrier of the Saint Realm is useful. It's called God King 'Divine King Blood, but it's actually considered Saint Blood. Moreover, if that kind of Divine King uses his own blood to break the curse for you, he will most likely die as well."

"It would take a saintly Divine King to sacrifice his own life to break the curse..." Ye Fan was in despair at this moment. He really couldn't imagine how he could avoid such a curse.

"Besides the Divine King Blood?" Ji Ziyue asked curiously at this moment.

She remembered that Zhou Tong had mentioned several ways to break the curse.

Ye Fan quickly regained his hope and looked at Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong said, "The Immortal Divine Medicine! If you can find the Immortal Divine Medicine, you might be able to neutralize the power of the Immortal Divine Medicine by using its medicinal properties and the Great Dao Laws within it when the curse descends. However, this method may not actually work. It would be best to prepare two ripe fruits to have even the slightest chance of success."

Zhou Tong remembered that the curse of the Saint Body was not meant to kill, but to Dao Severing foundation.

In other words, even if Ye Fan were to suffer a calamity without anyone's help, he would not die, but all his cultivation would be lost, and he might never be able to cultivate again in the future.

The Immortal Divine Medicine might be something that neutralizes the curse, but this has not been verified. What Zhou Tong said was just his own speculation, and his tone was very uncertain.

"Disaster!"

Ji Ziyue, who was standing to the side, said, "The Immortal Divine Medicine has always been under the control of the Great Emperor. We have never heard of the existence of the Immortal Divine Medicine in other places."

"Just a few years ago, someone was gambling on stones in the Holy City and cut out two Immortal Divine Medicine. But that person was too cunning. As soon as he cut out the Immortal Divine Medicine, he immediately ran away. Great Sage searched for him for many years but could not find him. The two Immortal Divine Medicine were left unresolved."

When Ji Ziyue spoke of the two people who had extracted the Immortal Divine Medicine, she felt a surge of urgency. Her Ji Family must have spent a great deal of time and effort searching, but to no avail.
