Chapter Thirty-Seven: Look, Look! She's So Pretty-You Won't Lose Out by Looking More!

Shi Ziling looked at the infant in his wife's arms with overwhelming grief, then quickly told the Old Village Chief the whole story, piece by piece.

After hearing this, the Old Village Chief couldn't help but roar angrily, "How could my Stone Clan ever do something so utterly vile? After leaving the ancestral land, have they completely forgotten the glory and ancestral teachings of our Stone Clan? They actually turned on each other! Give me the child. I'm going to find Willow God!"

The Old Village Chief also knew that this wasn't the time to discuss such things. He took the infant and headed toward Nuwa's Willow Tree Body.

Shi Ziling and his wife followed as well, their faces flustered and filled with self-reproach.

The Old Village Chief looked back at them and said solemnly, "Don't worry. Willow God will save your child."

Before long, they arrived outside the trunk of Nuwa's Willow Tree Body.

The Old Village Chief knelt on the ground with the infant in his arms and said reverently, "A descendant of Stone Village has suffered a calamity. We beg Willow God to save his life. He's still only a child!"

Under normal circumstances, Nuwa wouldn't concern herself with the ordinary life and death of Stone Village's people.

But whenever children suffered because of their weakness and vulnerability, she would lend them a hand. She liked watching young lives grow!

That was one of the reasons the Old Village Chief was certain Willow God would save the child.

Of course, that was only when Nuwa was awake. If she were in secluded cultivation, she wouldn't pay any attention to these villagers at all.

As it happened, Nuwa wasn't cultivating right now, so she naturally heard what had happened from Shi Ziling and the others.

"Supreme Bone? A naturally born Supreme Bone, like that white bone?"

"It's a pity it was dug out. Otherwise, I could have examined its mysteries. Hmm, it should be similar to an innate divine ability."

Nuwa thought this as she looked at the infant in the swaddling clothes, unable to help feeling a trace of pity.

Just as Shi Ziling and the others waited anxiously, a willow branch rose gently and then touched the infant between the brows.

A faint green light flashed, and the baby's little face immediately became rosy. The wound on his chest also healed rapidly.

When the couple saw that the infant had recovered, they joyfully bowed and said, "Thank you, Willow God! Thank you, Willow God!"

Nuwa ignored them. With a wave of her willow branches, she directly sent the Old Village Chief and the others back to their residence in Stone Village.

To her, saving a child was merely something she had done casually.

Nuwa had long since surpassed the so-called invincible Supreme Realm. She was now in the Golden Immortal Realm—in other words, the True Immortal Realm of the Great Desolation World—an undying being!

The reason she had stopped cultivating was that there wasn't enough time.

From the beginning of this simulation until now, 995 years had already passed. Only five years remained.

It was basically impossible to advance to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm within those five years.

Thus, Nuwa simply stopped her secluded cultivation and leisurely observed the changes and development of Stone Village's people over the next few years.

It was worth mentioning that Shi Ziling and his wife left Stone Village the following day.

But the infant whose Supreme Bone had been dug out remained behind, living and growing alongside the other children of Stone Village.

Compared with the other youths of Stone Village, this little fellow was even more mischievous...

At Buzhou Mountain in the Primordial World, beside the Three Lights Divine Water Pool—

Shen Lang watched the little fellow in the No. 1 simulator's image sneakily drinking Beast Milk behind Nuwa's Willow Tree Body, and couldn't help smiling.

It had to be said that this Heavenly Emperor, who would later stand alone through the ages in the Great Desolation World, was truly adorable right now.

Shen Lang had wondered whether Nuwa would encounter Shi Hao. As it turned out, she really had.

He had no idea what direction the Great Desolation World would take in the future.

"There are still two years. Nuwa's simulation will end then. There shouldn't be any problems."

"The flow of time in the God's Tomb World is even slower. Only six hundred years have passed so far, so it still needs roughly another four hundred years to end."

"The two of them probably won't come out at the same time..."

Thinking this silently, Shen Lang looked toward the No. 2 simulator again. In the image, Tongtian was no longer in the cave.

"Huh? Tongtian has finally come out of seclusion?"

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Look, Look! She's So Pretty—You Won't Lose Out by Looking More!

The God's Tomb World, an unknown mountain cave.

Tongtian's second simulation had only reached its 119th year.

Compared with Nuwa's side, time flowed even more slowly for Tongtian, mainly because he had left the Gods and Demons Cemetery early on.

Meanwhile, Nuwa had remained in the Great Desolation World, staying in the same place without moving much or causing any major disturbances.

However, Tongtian had spent 104 years in secluded cultivation to heal his injuries!

His injuries were truly severe. The forcibly condensed Inner Sword Primordial Spirit was not very powerful, and he no longer even had a physical body.

For the first hundred years, he had been recovering his Sword Soul Primordial Spirit.

With the assistance of the Formations in the Gods and Demons Cemetery, his cultivation speed had been extremely fast. Only after leaving did he discover that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth had become even worse.

It was even more useless than in the Gods and Demons Cemetery!

Fortunately, the Sword Soul Primordial Spirit technique was powerful enough. After a hundred years, it had barely allowed him to return to the early True Immortal Realm.

During the following four years, Tongtian had focused on reconstructing his physical body.

Perhaps because of the simulation rules, Tongtian had originally wanted to reconstruct his true appearance, but in the end, he still became Chen Nan.

After trying several times and getting the same result, Tongtian couldn't be bothered to force the matter anymore.

The test for this Innate Supreme Treasure clearly wanted him to live on as Chen Nan!

Tongtian transformed into a ray of sword light and left the cave where he had cultivated for a hundred years. With another step, he soared to an altitude of a thousand meters and gazed toward the Gods and Demons Cemetery.

"That old man is definitely an Innate Spiritual Treasure—an Innate Spiritual Treasure capable of transforming into human form!"

"Wait, could this God's Tomb World be a world formed by a Divine Treasure life-form?"

At this thought, Tongtian became excited again. If that was truly the case, he would make a huge profit.

In a world evolved from an Innate Supreme Treasure, it wouldn't be excessive for there to be a whole pile of Innate Spiritual Treasures and Acquired Spiritual Treasures, right?

Once he obtained the Innate Supreme Treasure, he could even divide some of the Divine Treasures among Big Brother and Second Brother!

Tongtian immediately became motivated. He looked around and said coldly, "I want to see what mysteries your world holds!"

"First, I'll take that old man... that Innate Spiritual Treasure, and then we'll talk!"

The next moment, Tongtian's figure vanished from where he stood and shot directly toward the Gods and Demons Cemetery.

Now that his cultivation had recovered to the True Immortal Realm, he naturally no longer needed to fear the Tomb Guardian Elder.

As luck would have it, not long after Tongtian left, the Tomb Guardian Elder's figure appeared in the cave where he had cultivated.

The Tomb Guardian Elder closed his eyes and deduced. Sensing the sharp sword intent left behind in the cave, he frowned and said, "In just a mere hundred years, he recovered to the early Heavenly Realm? Give him another hundred years, and won't he become even stronger than this old man? No, I must find him! Otherwise, I won't be able to explain myself!"

"What a pity. His aura is restrained, making it difficult to track."

"However, since this new Heavenly Emperor came to the Tian Yuan Continent, he definitely didn't come here sightseeing. He must be trying every possible way to sabotage the War Against Heaven Plan!"

"Wherever something major happens, he will definitely be there!"

Thinking this, the Tomb Guardian Elder quickly left. He didn't return to the Gods and Demons Cemetery, instead continuing to search for traces of Tongtian.

Tongtian's return to the Gods and Demons Cemetery naturally ended in failure. He couldn't find the Tomb Guardian Elder.

After searching the entire Gods and Demons Cemetery without finding the Tomb Guardian Elder, Tongtian could only leave regretfully. That Innate Spiritual Treasure had definitely escaped.

Tongtian wandered aimlessly into a mountain range and was currently sizing up a strange life-form—

A gigantic monster bird more than thirty zhang long.

It could be called a bird, but it had no feathers on its body. It was covered entirely in green scales, and a long tail extended from its rear, much like a snake's.

In any case, no such life-form existed in the Primordial World.

It did somewhat resemble Yinglong, one of the branches of the dragon race in the Primordial World, but only slightly!

Yinglong was still a member of the dragon race, after all!

But this monster bird was more like a fat-bellied lizard with a pair of fleshy wings. The two were utterly incomparable.

Tongtian silently evaluated it for a while, but suddenly his eyes lit up.

Could this grotesque giant monster bird, like the Tomb Guardian Elder, also be an Innate Spiritual Treasure that had transformed into human form?

Without another word, Tongtian immediately chased after the monster bird.

He was now at the early True Immortal Realm. In terms of the God's Tomb World, that meant he was unquestionably at the early peak of the Heavenly Realm!

He might be slightly weaker than the Tomb Guardian Elder, but if they truly fought with all their strength, Tongtian might not be unable to beat it back into its original form!

In any case, he was an absolute powerhouse in the God's Tomb World now.

Almost without any surprise, a ray of sword light burst from Tongtian's finger and sliced the green monster bird in two.

The monster bird had no power to resist. Before dying, it looked at Tongtian with terror filling both eyes.

It had merely come out to find something to eat, yet it had run into a legendary Heavenly Realm powerhouse? Had Heavenly Realm powerhouses become this common?

"Damn it, it wasn't an Innate Spiritual Treasure transformed into living form!"

"Looks like only relatively powerful life-forms can possibly be transformed Innate Spiritual Treasures!"

Although Tongtian hadn't obtained a Divine Treasure, he still learned quite a bit about this world from the soul of the green monster bird.
