Even for Grand Unity Golden Immortals, Innate Spiritual Treasures were of considerable use.
To great powers, the might of an Innate Spiritual Treasure was secondary. What mattered were its Innate restrictions and laws.
First of all, every Innate Spiritual Treasure possessed Innate restrictions.
Refining Innate restrictions could help improve one's cultivation, or allow one to comprehend cultivation techniques and Divine Ability Secret Techniques.
Moreover, nearly all Innate Spiritual Treasures contained laws.
The reason for "nearly" was that there were also Innate Spiritual Treasures without laws, though they were exceedingly rare.
In addition, some Innate Spiritual Treasures contained two or even more laws.
At that moment, an ownerless Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure lay before them, and every one of the dozens of great powers present coveted it.
Its origin had not been lost. Though the World-Ending Millstone was damaged, it would recover sooner or later.
And since Shen Ni had already fallen, this treasure was ownerless.
Yet although all the great powers were staring at it, no one made the first move.
After a long stalemate, First Kirin was the first to lose patience.
A surge of Magic Power shot from First Kirin's hand, sweeping toward the World-Ending Millstone on the ground.
"Bang!"
Rahu waved the God-Slaying Spear in his hand, and surging demonic qi blocked First Kirin's Magic Power.
With that, Yuan Feng, Ancestor Dragon, and the others also made their moves.
Dozens of great powers erupted into battle over Shen Ni's legacy.
Tian Dang Mountain, already battered beyond recognition, was completely destroyed this time.
Streams of Magic Power clashed around the World-Ending Millstone.
The shockwaves of Magic Power spread in every direction.
The earth was torn apart, and mountains were flattened.
The cloud mountains and seas floating high in the sky were shredded by the residual force of Magic Power.
At first, these great powers had still shown restraint, but gradually, their attacks grew heavier.
They displayed everything they had learned in their lives, determined to settle the matter once and for all.
Not long ago, they had joined forces against Shen Ni. Now, over a single Innate Spiritual Treasure, they had descended into a chaotic melee.
Lu Ya had wanted to stay out of it, but he was still dragged in.
When Lu Ya joined forces with Yuan Feng, the eyes of the other great powers flickered as each harbored their own thoughts.
It was clear that Lu Ya and Yuan Feng shared an unusual relationship.
Ancestor Dragon's gaze darkened somewhat.
The Phoenix Clan had gained another Grand Unity level expert, which was no good thing for the Dragon Clan.
At present, the Dragon Clan was far stronger than the Phoenix Clan. One Grand Unity expert was not enough to make up the difference.
Just moments ago, Ancestor Dragon had considered befriending Lu Ya and inviting him to join the Dragon Clan. But since Lu Ya's relationship with Yuan Feng was unusual, recruiting him would be difficult.
Currently, the Dragon Clan was the foremost clan in the Primordial World. Under such pressure, the Phoenix Clan and Kirin Clan would naturally join forces.
If another Grand Unity expert joined the Dragon Clan, it would only drive the Phoenix Clan and Kirin Clan into closer cooperation.
But so long as the Dragon Clan remained powerful, and so long as Ancestor Dragon harbored ambition, the Phoenix Clan and Kirin Clan would inevitably form an alliance.
Naturally, Ancestor Dragon needed to consider dividing the Phoenix Clan and Kirin Clan, but strengthening the Dragon Clan was even more important.
To forge iron, one needed a strong hammer.
Though the great powers were fighting over the World-Ending Millstone, not all their thoughts were focused on it.
Ancestor Dragon was not the only one seized by countless thoughts. The other great powers had many thoughts of their own as well.
Dozens of streams of Grand Unity level Magic Power intertwined in utter chaos.
Even space and time were thrown into disorder beneath so much Grand Unity level Magic Power.
Suddenly, the space and time within this region became like a shattered mirror.
As space and time broke apart, the World-Ending Millstone fell into a spatial torrent.
"Not good!"
Ancestor Dragon and the others were greatly alarmed, but it was already too late.
They could only watch helplessly as the World-Ending Millstone vanished into the spatial torrent.
Yet deep in Lu Ya's eyes, there was great calm.
Nor did Lu Ya's state of mind stir in the slightest.
Some great powers entered the spatial torrent to search for the World-Ending Millstone, unwilling to give up.
Rahu was the first to enter the spatial torrent.
Yuan Feng returned to Immortal Volcano, while Lu Ya did not accompany her.
Disordered space and time, boundless void.
Sunlight flickered, forming a mark upon the World-Ending Millstone.
Lu Ya arrived at an unhurried pace.
Once an ownerless Innate Spiritual Treasure had remained beneath sunlight for a time, Lu Yang could leave a sunlight mark upon it.
Leaving a sunlight mark right beneath the eyes of Grand Unity experts without being noticed was quite difficult.
Only because the great powers had descended into a chaotic battle, with Lu Ya providing cover, had no one noticed anything amiss.
The sunlight mark would not last more than a few days, but that was enough for Lu Ya.
"This object is fated to be mine." Lu Ya smiled.
Upon arriving before the World-Ending Millstone, Lu Ya released his divine sense.
His divine sense covered the World-Ending Millstone.
After only a moment, Lu Ya frowned, and surprise appeared in his gaze as he looked at the World-Ending Millstone.
He had sensed a remnant soul within the World-Ending Millstone.
That truly was unexpected!
He had not thought Shen Ni had left behind a remnant soul.
However, a remnant soul was still only a remnant soul, and it could only reside within the World-Ending Millstone.
If it left the World-Ending Millstone, Shen Ni's remnant soul would have difficulty surviving in the world for long.
This was quite a troublesome matter for Lu Ya.
Once one attained the Grand Unity Dao Fruit, one became "imperishable through eternal calamities." Thus, Shen Ni's remnant soul was highly unusual.
It would not be easy to erase this remnant soul.
The Golden Crow avatar's power cannot erase this remnant soul. I still need the main body's power, Lu Ya thought.
Above Biluo was merely the bottom of the Heavenly Realm.
Rosy clouds filled the sky, and astral winds howled, yet this was only the First Heaven.
The Heavenly Realm did not have only one level. It currently had twenty-seven levels, and it appeared that evolving beyond thirty would not be a problem.
The Sun Star at the peak of the Heavenly Realm continuously released scorching heat, warming more than half of the Primordial World.
Few living beings set foot upon the Sun Star, solely because its environment was so harsh.
Even fire-loving beings such as Phoenixes, Vermilion Birds, and Bi Fang could not adapt to the Sun Star's environment.
At present, perhaps only Golden Crows in the Primordial World could adapt to the Sun Star's environment.
And there was currently only one Golden Crow: Lu Ya.
Lu Ya had not returned to the Sun Star, but he had transmitted the World-Ending Millstone there.
Deep within the Sun Star, at its core, terrifying Great Sun Golden Flame surged.
Sun True Fire was already terrifying enough to burn mountains and boil seas, but Great Sun Golden Flame was even more tyrannical, capable of destroying Heaven and Earth.
Yet concealed within the Great Sun Golden Flame was a cluster of black flame.
This black flame was the core of the Sun Star's core. Calling it Lu Yang's "heart" would not be an exaggeration.
Originally, the Sun Star had not possessed this black flame. Lu Yang had painstakingly cultivated it himself.
And this black flame was even more powerful than the Great Sun Golden Flame.
Lu Yang had named the black flame the World-Ending Blaze.
The World-Ending Blaze was disapproved by Heaven and Earth, so Lu Yang could only keep it hidden.
Once he used the World-Ending Blaze, the consequences would not be minor.
This was also one of Lu Yang's trump cards.
As the World-Ending Millstone was transmitted over, a vast expanse of golden flame first wrapped around it tightly.
The Great Sun Golden Flame invaded the World-Ending Millstone, and Shen Ni's remnant soul fled in terror.
"This is the Sun Star's Primordial Divine Fire?"
"To directly transmit an Innate Spiritual Treasure from the Primordial Great Earth to the Sun Star so stably—such a method is absolutely beyond what a Grand Unity expert can accomplish."
"Who exactly is capable of controlling the Sun Star's Primordial Divine Fire?"
If it had only been Sun True Fire, Shen Ni's remnant soul would not have been so frightened.
But for the Great Sun Golden Flame to erase a remnant soul would not be too difficult. Within less than a Cosmic Epoch, Shen Ni's remnant soul would certainly be erased.
Then, the World-Ending Blaze appeared.
Upon seeing the World-Ending Blaze, Shen Ni's remnant soul was dumbstruck.
There was actually such a terrifying flame in the Primordial World?
Who exactly was this person?
The waters of the Primordial World... ran too deep.
There had to be some terrifying existence hidden on the Sun Star.
A Chaos Demon God older than ancient times?
But that could not be right! The Primordial World rejected Chaos Demon Gods.
But if it were one of the Primordial World's first batch of Innate Beings, how could it possibly be this powerful?
Shen Ni, Hongjun, Ancestor Dragon, Rahu, Yuan Feng... they had all been among the Primordial World's first living beings.
And Shen Ni, Hongjun, and the others were all peerless geniuses.
Even if some living being had taken the lead, it should only have been by a little. The gap should not have been this enormous.
Shen Ni had devoured hundreds of millions of Fierce Beasts and borrowed the power of the Calamity to pull far ahead of Hongjun and the others.
Therefore, Shen Ni's remnant soul could not understand it. Countless doubts plagued him.
But there was no time to think. The World-Ending Blaze was drawing closer and closer.
