The vines fell like rain, and everywhere were delicate buds, exuding fragrance. Everyone present had a solemn expression; such a tragic past had taught them a lesson.

Although that bloody scene only happened in a corner of the old universe, it was enough to touch everyone's heart.

This is not the end; more will happen in the future. Even the Super Peerless are no match for them. Extraordinary people still meet tragic ends, and even the Daoist partner of the First Ancestor of the Black Peacock Clan was killed.

In summary, the Black Peacock Sacred Mountain was very tough. None of the seven offspring of the Extraordinary One were left alive. They did not feel that they were different from others, and they all took the initiative to fight out and died in battle.

In the distance lies Qizi Mountain, silent and overgrown with vines and vegetation.

"I thought my past was already terrible, but I never imagined that the past of my ancestors was even more bloody and painful. The past is too painful to recall, so we must strive to be strong," the wolverine said, looking up.

I don't know if he's serious or just habitually trying to make his presence known.

Wang Xuan had never felt such a sense of crisis and urgency before, but now it was different. After witnessing a corner of blood, his expression became exceptionally solemn.

He had to strictly implement both long-term and short-term goals, so he started now by learning the top scriptures of the Black Peacock Sacred Mountain.

Then, the strange bones on the grand altar in the distance, once again submerged in flowers, became the next target he needed to refer to and learn from.

The path to Dao-imperialized must be followed steadfastly, starting early and strengthening oneself.

As for long-term goals, currently, although the superhumans can look down on the starry sky, they are not yet foolproof and need to Dao-imperialized more comprehensive.

Without a doubt, the legendary True Saint, a terrifying being beyond the world, probably doesn't need to worry about the struggle for passage. Unless there is a mortal enemy who is determined to stop him at the cost of his life, the True Saint can lead his people to migrate far away with the Supernatural Center, and there should be no problem.

However, all indications suggest that there is also a standoff at this level, with a contest taking place in places unknown to the public.

Wang Xuan would never forget the old man he met with Wu Tian in the Chaotic Space-time Sea. The old man was wearing a fur coat on his upper body, naked on his lower body, and had half of his head smashed open. He was still chasing birds in a daze.

And in the Chaotic Space-time Sea, in the Floating Boat Pure Land, Bai Hong and Jin Yao played the flute and summoned the mad boy with the giant axe, all of whom were extremely powerful.

However, these kinds of people were probably all killed by True Saints.

At the same time, Wang Xuan was certain that he would not take the path of relying on one or several clans to empower himself. Although it was possible to mutually benefit each other and strengthen the clans, it could also help the extraordinary person transform and improve their cultivation. However, doing so was too exhausting.

Ever since Wang Xuan witnessed the Vanished some of his relatives and friends in the Mother Universe, he never wanted to experience that kind of separation and death again.

When a group or several groups migrate together, they are often ambushed on the way, resulting in the tragic deaths of countless people.

If I can't protect them, I won't take them on their perilous journey. It's better to let them end their lives in the old universe in an ordinary and uneventful way, becoming mortals and naturally multiplying.

The Peacock Clan also left behind many members in the original universe. Those who embarked on the journey were all Supernatural Practitioner voluntarily followed them, but in the end, nine out of ten of them died.

Even Wang Xuan, who was not directly involved, felt heartbroken watching it.

He didn't want to get involved in such a tragic situation.

"Will the path be difficult without the support of my clan?" He pondered, needing to think of more ways to improve himself. His cultivation was progressing rapidly now, but who knew what would happen later.

In short, looking up at the vast starry sky, there is brilliance, but also blood and fire. If you want a bright future, you need to be strong enough and fight your way out.

"Alright, let's head to Transmission Mountain. Everyone, get ready." The three Super Peerless personally led the team, with several Old Peacock following behind.

On the horizon, a range of mountains appeared, all standing tall and steep, each bearing many scratches and the insights of those who came before.

Of course, the most magnificent one is the central Giant Mountain, where the most important secrets are passed down. Afterwards, one can go to other peaks to sit and contemplate.

"Lightning, how was it this time? Did you enjoy dealing with those troublemakers?" On a relatively tall mountain peak, a rugged-looking man asked Lightning Giant.

Anyone who dares to speak like that must be a troublemaker. Ordinary people wouldn't shout like that. In fact, he is indeed the most unruly of the "old men," but his strength is also exceptionally outstanding, ranking first.

However, he has no problem with his sense of belonging to Black Peacock Sacred Mountain. He came to the mountain at a young age and was raised by an Old Peacock. His demon bloodline has been constantly evolving. Especially after he came here and went into seclusion, he has become a Six-Eyed Golden Cicada, a top-level demon species.

The Lightning Giant kept a sullen face, not wanting to pay him any attention, and remained silent.

"You lost?" The burly man, Six-Eyed Golden Cicada, looked over in surprise and said, "The newcomers are all incredibly strong. That's good, though. Going to the event with teammates like these might actually yield some results. Otherwise, how long can I hold them off alone?"

He was quite confident.

People were also looking over from the surrounding mountains.

A young man with black hair, whose blood, when it flows, carries some special fragments of scenes, which are reflected in his flesh and blood, and travel through it, protected by a mysterious power.

Wang Xuan guessed that this person might be descendants of Anomalous Beings, whose bloodline had been revived and who was gradually Ancestor Return, and whose inner energy was indeed extremely powerful.

However, he didn't find it incredible or insurmountable.

These days, which family doesn't have an oddball? He muttered to himself.

Of course, if someone heard his inner thoughts, they would probably want to punch him in the heart.

Wang Xuan was born when his parents were in Mortal Period, and he did not inherit any special bloodline or Dao Principle Fragment from extraordinary people.

But psychologically, he is not afraid of the descendants of such people at all. He started as an ordinary person and did not receive guidance from his parents, yet he still got to where he is today.

The Second Elder spoke up, "Heng Cheng, you have a solid foundation, and your Ancestor Blood has become even stronger. Have you finished comprehending the first chapter? Hurry up and try to be the first to come out of seclusion so you can observe the extraordinary bones of the Dao-imperialized. It will be of great benefit to you in the future."

"It will take a few more days," Heng Cheng replied, standing up.

The Great Elder also spoke up. He was a middle-aged man with a somewhat dignified appearance. He asked, "Yuan Zhao, how is it? Has your second primordial spirit reached perfection?"

"Approaching perfection." A Golden-haired Youth spoke up. He was very tall and was a top-tier Prodigy who was highly valued by the Great Elder. He actually had two perfected primordial spirits, which was truly rare.

"Very good. Before cultivating the third primordial spirit, you must first go to the altar to see my ancestor's extraordinary bones. This will be beneficial for the formation of the New Primordial Spirit," the Great Elder instructed.

Both elders hoped that the person they valued would achieve some success in his cultivation and be the first to emerge from seclusion so they could witness the Dao-imperialized into a wondrous bone.

"Actually, it's just that. When I first watched it there two years ago, I only wrote it down, but I can't use it now. You need to be at least at the late Heavenly Grade, or even the Super Peerless Realm, to comprehend it." The burly man, Six-Eyed Golden Cicada, offered his opinion at the right time. With the Great Elder present, he didn't stand on ceremony and spoke casually, only to be glared at twice.

The brief stop and conversation allowed Wang Xuan to learn about the situation of the most powerful people.

Transmission Mountain, located in the center of the mountains, is majestic and imposing. Once you climb up here, the entire mountain is covered with runes. It is a more powerful and wondrous mountain than the "Heart-Illuminating Wall".

"You are destined people. The scriptures you have obtained are the most top-level in the entire starry sea, belonging to some of the secret chapters of the highest-level scriptures."

The Great Elder spoke, and then activated a certain mark on the Transmission Mountain, making all the newcomers sit cross-legged on the mountaintop and swear an oath with their primordial spirits not to reveal the scriptures they had obtained.

As for the goodwill and affinity towards the Black Peacock Sacred Mountain, it also underwent another test.

Soon, the stone wall glowed, and Wang Xuan and the wolverine immediately studied it. It was a Spirit Imprint that resonated with everyone present. It didn't matter if they didn't recognize the characters; they could "understand" it because of the spiritual resonance. It was divided into three parts: upper, middle, and lower.

This time, these newcomers got the first part.

Wang Xuan immediately became serious. This was indeed a remarkable chapter, worthy of study and contemplation. Its core theme was the word "change".

It could be a mutation in bloodline, a mutation in spirit, or a mutation in organs, such as the growth of a third vertical eye. It could also be a mutation in cultivation level, as if taking a shortcut and rapidly increasing one's cultivation level in a short period of time.

Of course, the changes in his cultivation level are just rumors.

Different people will have different understandings when they read and contemplate this.

For example, Heng Cheng, after studying the scriptures, comprehended the bloodline mutation, which accelerated his Ancestor Return his ancestral form. This caused Rule Fragments of his ancestors to flow in his blood, and strange phenomena shone in his flesh and blood. No wonder the Second Elder valued him so much; this scripture was perfect for him.

Then there's Yuan Zhao, who comprehended Divine Transformation. Because he had already cultivated a second primordial spirit, after obtaining this wondrous scripture, he naturally moved in that direction, which greatly benefited his primordial spirit. Now, his second primordial spirit is almost complete.

As for the burly man among the "old men," he had mastered all three parts of the text and practiced them for two years, so the benefits he had gained were naturally even greater.

The Golden Cicada is already a very powerful species. It transformed into Six-Eyed Golden Cicada with six wings through this scripture, which is truly rare and can be considered an anomaly among the top-tier demon races.

His potential is naturally much greater than before; one could even say it Change Fate.

Of all these people, he has so far achieved the most.

The wolverine grinned, only to be immediately glared at by the Super Peerless sky.

"Don't always think the best. Before you start practicing, I have to remind you that this scripture emphasizes the word 'change.' It could be a change for the better, or it could be a change in the opposite direction."

The newlyweds fell silent, as if they had been doused with cold water.

"The 'old folks' who stayed behind were the ones who benefited from it. Many others left in despair because if they continued to train too hard, they would degenerate. Their originally powerful bloodlines and vigorous spirits would gradually become ordinary and deteriorate!"

This warning horrified a group of people; the strange scripture was somewhat frightening.

"If you feel unwell or encounter problems while practicing this scripture, stop immediately. Do not force yourself to continue. Because, if it works, it works; if it doesn't, it doesn't. It also depends on fate. Perhaps this scripture is not suitable for you."

Super Peerless Sky was very serious. She even gave an example: some famous geniuses of the Black Peacock Clan stubbornly persisted in their training, ultimately ruining themselves.

Back then, there was a man who was as famous as Luo Ying. After practicing this scripture, he experienced discomfort, but he refused to admit defeat. As a result, this rare genius fell into the abyss.

"In addition, this kind of mutation initially consumes a lot of energy. If the foundation is not strong enough and the vital energy is insufficient, the first part will not be able to last."

Wang Xuan listened attentively, his mind alert. This extraordinary scripture was indeed tempting yet dangerous. He remained calm and determined not to compromise if it was truly unsuitable for him.

After obtaining this scripture, the direction he most wanted to try was the skull of the person who was exploring the Dao-imperialized. If he could achieve a transformation from there, that would be incredibly exciting.

Wang Xuan studied it quietly for three days, but did not put it into action immediately. He wanted to analyze the essential issues from the perspective of the fundamental meaning of the scriptures.

He wanted to avoid degradation as much as possible in order to achieve an optimized transformation, but he felt overwhelmed and increasingly felt that this change was uncontrollable.

No one expected that the wolverine, who went straight for the reckless cultivation, would be the first to cause a big commotion. Its demonic aura soared to the sky, and instead of the two small bulges on its back splitting open to grow wings of the Black Peacock Clan, an anomaly appeared near its tail, where a large clump of peacock tail feathers grew!

Meanwhile, peacock crest feathers grew on his head, with three brilliant feathers standing upright, dazzlingly bright, yet he still had the appearance of a wolf with a badger's head.

"I...#!" Judging from his appearance, it was obvious that he was a mixed race, a descendant of multiple ethnicities. He was so angry that he wanted to pluck the three feathers from his head. How could he be like this? No one else could do this.

With a flapping sound, as he became slightly agitated, his tail feathers spread out, like a male peacock spreading its tail, but surrounded by stars, clustering around the central wolverine's tail.

When he turned around and realized his situation, he almost screamed in agony.
