Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler.
Houtian Merit Supreme Treasure!
It stood on the same level as Taiqing Saint's Heaven and Earth Yellow Exquisite Pagoda.
The Heaven and Earth Yellow Exquisite Pagoda specialized in defense. Suspended above one's head, it granted innate invincibility, Invulnerable to All Dharmas, calmed the mind, focused the spirit, and aided cultivation.
The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler was the exact opposite.
The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler specialized in slaughter. Its attacks were absolute, capable of destroying all things and killing without accruing karma.
It could also measure Qiankun and delineate laws, making it extraordinarily remarkable.
The Yuantu and Abi killing swords in Old Ancestor Styx's hands could also kill without accruing karma.
However, the two differed slightly.
The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler's ability to kill without accruing karma stemmed from judging and executing with the power of merit. Such acts were deemed to be enforcing justice on behalf of Heaven, exempting them from karma.
The Yuantu and Abi swords, on the other hand, were born to feed on karma, tempered by Karma Fire and returning to the Sea of Blood.
That was why they could kill without accruing karma.
"I thought the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler would be hidden somewhere incredibly secret. Who would have thought it would just be stuck here?"
Cangyuan smiled faintly.
After wearing out iron shoes in a fruitless search, he found it without the slightest effort.
Naturally, it was best that he had found the target of this trip so directly.
Cangyuan immediately flew forward.
The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler sensed him and began to hum and tremble. Streams of Mysterious Yellow merit qi spilled forth, its laws sharp and its edge so extreme that people instinctively kept their distance.
"I sense the aura of a Spiritual Treasure from you. You actually underwent Form Transformation from a Spiritual Treasure?"
An ancient voice rang in his heart. Cangyuan understood that the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler was speaking.
A Spiritual Treasure of its level could not possibly lack spiritual intelligence.
Cangyuan performed the salute of a junior. "This junior is Cangyuan. Greetings, Senior Measuring Heaven Ruler."
"Mm." The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler gave a hum, then said with great interest, "You are quite strange, little one. After undergoing Form Transformation, you can still understand the language of Spiritual Treasures."
Once a Spiritual Treasure underwent Form Transformation, it was no longer considered a pure Spiritual Treasure. It became a living being, and living beings transformed from Spiritual Treasures would not retain the ability to understand the language of Spiritual Treasures. Yet this little one before it could understand.
This made the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler immensely curious.
Cangyuan did not know why either.
But he truly could understand it.
"This junior does not know."
"Senior, this junior came here seeking you. Would you be willing to lend this junior a hand?"
Cangyuan did not hide anything and directly stated his purpose.
He did want to force the issue.
But he was afraid the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler would chop him into fries.
A supreme treasure was not something he could contend with, even without an owner controlling it.
"You are certainly straightforward, little one."
"Very well. I am also quite curious about you, so I shall accompany you for a time."
The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler laughed heartily.
The next instant, the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler that had been slanted into the ground rose straight up.
The massive Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler, as large as a stone stele, shrank with the wind until it became a slender ruler resembling a sword.
It flew before Cangyuan.
Cangyuan solemnly received the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler with both hands.
"Old tree, won't you give your old friend a parting gift?"
The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler spoke again, but this time, it was not addressing Cangyuan.
In the distance, the extraordinary Dao Comprehension Tea Tree rustled as it shook down tea leaves that filled the sky.
The sheer number was astonishing.
The Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler said, "Kid, why aren't you collecting them?"
"Gladly."
Cangyuan beamed.
This trip had not been in vain.
Not only had he obtained a Houtian Merit Supreme Treasure, he had also gained so many leaves from the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree.
Whether he drank them himself or presented them to his master, they would be an excellent choice.
Like a gale sweeping fallen leaves, Cangyuan quickly collected every Enlightenment Tea Leaf.
There were a full 12,960 leaves!
The Dao Comprehension Tea Tree had shaken off every single leaf on its body.
However, there was no need to worry that this would harm the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree.
If you can't find it by searching the book title, try searching for the author. It may simply have been renamed!
Even if they had not been given to Cangyuan, these leaves would have fallen to the ground and rotted into the soil, only for another batch to grow. The cycle would repeat endlessly.
"This junior bids farewell."
Cangyuan watered the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree with a great deal of Three Lights Divine Water. After bowing to it, he turned and left.
The Dao Comprehension Tea Tree's branches and leaves swayed, rustling against one another as though bidding farewell to an old friend, or perhaps cursing the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler for going off to enjoy itself while abandoning it.
Cangyuan truly wanted to take the Dao Comprehension Tea Tree with him, but a Supreme Innate Spiritual Root could not be transplanted lightly.
Otherwise, it would damage its foundation.
Unless... a Great Supernatural Being or even a Saint took action.
"Kid, go that way."
Cangyuan's expression remained unchanged as he followed the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler's guidance northward.
After flying for some time.
Cangyuan spotted a stone stele in the distance engraved with the two characters, "Penglai."
The one they had seen upon entering the island earlier was merely an island stele, meant to inform others of the place's name.
This one was the Boundary Stele.
An important object that, once refined, allowed one to control an entire realm!
Without further thought, Cangyuan immediately flew before the Penglai Realm Stele, sat cross-legged, and began refining it.
A thousand years passed in an instant.
The Prehistoric World was still the same Prehistoric World. Nothing had changed merely because a thousand years had passed.
Penglai Island.
Cangyuan successfully refined the Penglai Realm Stele!
After Fangzhang Immortal Island, Cangyuan became the master of Penglai Island as well.
Only Yingzhou Island remained.
If he could obtain it too, Cangyuan would have his own Three Immortal Island.
Yingzhou Island was currently in the hands of Heavenly Emperor Dijun. Taking it from him would be no easy task.
But... he did not have to take it from Dijun.
After the demon clan's Heavenly Court fell, Yingzhou Island would become ownerless. As a Saint's disciple, would he not have every right to claim it?
Besides, it was only a damaged Yingzhou Island.
"Let me see what that girl Bixiao is doing."
Cangyuan thought to himself.
After refining the Boundary Stele, Cangyuan was omniscient and omnipotent within the island and could see anywhere.
"Don't run!"
"You big bird, stop running!"
"Wait for me! Be my mount!"
Cangyuan saw her.
Bixiao was currently pursuing a divine bird with all her strength!
Its wings spread like clouds hanging from the heavens. Its jade-green feathers flowed with ancient azure radiance, every one inscribed with innate Dao patterns of the Law of Wind.
Chased by Bixiao, it stretched its neck and cried out. Its call was clear and melodious, while the Innate Xun Wind Qi surrounding it tore through the cloud sea. Countless strands of azure light swirled with it like an inverted river of stars.
Cangyuan was stunned. "This is... Qingluan?"
That was right.
The divine bird Bixiao was chasing closely resembled the Qingluan Divine Bird.
It radiated the aura of a Peak Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Logically, at her realm, she should not have been chased all over the sky by Bixiao.
But... although Bixiao was only at the early stage of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, she carried a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure—the Golden Phoenix Hairpin.
She also had a Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
The might of two Spiritual Treasures directly let Bixiao turn the tables.
She actually wanted to take Qingluan as her mount.
Cangyuan arrived before Qingluan in an instant.
He blocked her path.
Qingluan was greatly alarmed.
She was now caught between attacks from the front and rear.
The moment Bixiao saw Cangyuan, she became excited. The urgency on her little face vanished as she shouted joyfully, "Junior Brother, help me catch this big bird!"
Cangyuan smiled gently and asked Qingluan, "Fellow cultivator, would you like to leave this immortal island and see the world outside?"
