However, each of these three kinds of divine water was highly poisonous on its own. When fused together, they became the greatest healing elixir in the Primordial World. It was truly miraculous.
Wherever there was a Star Fruit Tree, Three Lights Divine Water was most likely to appear.
Deng Jiugong had truly struck it rich!
After collecting the Star Fruit Tree and the Three Lights Divine Water, Deng Jiugong continued exploring the space within the Innate Restriction.
This space wasn't very large, but it wasn't small, either.
Here, Deng Jiugong obtained quite a few Spiritual Roots. Most were low-grade, though there were also several mid-grade ones. It was an abundant harvest.
"That's!!!"
At one moment, Deng Jiugong came to a halt.
The sight before him was truly shocking.
A lotus platform radiating boundless white light appeared before Deng Jiugong, its aura terrifyingly powerful.
"A Top-grade Innate Spirit Treasure?"
"The Pure World White Lotus?"
Sensing it with his divine consciousness, Deng Jiugong was overjoyed.
There were five lotus platforms in the Primordial World: the World Destroying Black Lotus, the Samsara Purple Lotus, the Merit Golden Lotus, the Karma Fire Red Lotus, and the Pure World White Lotus.
All five were twelve-petal lotus platforms, transformed from five incompletely matured seeds of the Chaos Green Lotus. They were all Top-grade Innate Spirit Treasures, with boundless defensive power.
Apart from the World Destroying Black Lotus, which had vanished without a trace after the Dao-Devil War, the other three lotus platforms had all been acquired by powerful figures.
Only this Pure World White Lotus had been specially prepared for him, the protagonist!!!
Deng Jiugong raised a hand and took it.
Then he immediately began refining it.
With the magical power of his Golden Immortal Realm cultivation, he couldn't fully refine a Top-grade Innate Spirit Treasure.
However, he could use it as long as he refined some of its Innate Restrictions.
Before long, Deng Jiugong had initially refined the Pure World White Lotus. When he poured his magical power into it, boundless white light surged forth, forming layer upon layer of powerful defenses.
Although he couldn't unleash the Pure World White Lotus's full power, Deng Jiugong felt certain that no one below the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm could break through its defenses.
And this was after only an initial refinement. Once he fully refined it, he could withstand attacks from Quasi-Saints.
After all, Top-grade Innate Spirit Treasures were magical treasures even Saints could use. If a Saint activated one, its power would be beyond imagination.
Moreover, the Pure World White Lotus contained a Pure World Law. Though it was a Top-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, its power was practically on par with an Innate Supreme Treasure!
Whoosh!
A moment later, Deng Jiugong couldn't help letting out a long breath.
This treasure was powerful, but activating it at his current level of cultivation consumed far too much magical power!
In just a moment, half the magical power in Deng Jiugong's body had been drained.
Deng Jiugong now possessed two divine blades: the Heavenly Origin Divine Blade and the Destruction Divine Blade.
Both were mid-grade Innate Spirit Treasures, and both were offensive magical treasures.
The Pure World White Lotus he had just obtained was a defensive magical treasure.
He now had both offensive and defensive treasures. He also had the Immortal Binding Rope, a magical treasure specifically meant for capturing people.
He could say that he had just about enough magical treasures.
Of course, nobody ever complained about having too many treasures. As long as he could keep them safe, the more the better.
However, Deng Jiugong hadn't given the treasures he'd obtained from killing Jin Zha and Mu Zha to the generals under his command.
First, their cultivation was too low and their fortune too meager to control them.
Second, the treasures could very well bring them disaster.
Once their cultivation improved, Deng Jiugong could bestow treasures upon them.
"Now that I've obtained the Star Fruit Tree, and the Spiritual Energy here is so abundant, it's time to raise my cultivation!"
Deng Jiugong found a place where the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth was most concentrated, then sat down cross-legged.
Hum!
He activated the Time Dao Disk and brought out the Creation Jade Disk Fragment.
With a thought, he took out several Star Fruits and began eating and refining them.
Spiritual Roots could be eaten directly or used to make immortal pills.
The Star Fruit was of a high grade and contained terrifying energy. Eaten directly, its flesh was tender and its juice sweet, and it contained the power of the stars. It was an excellent choice for strengthening the body.
As Deng Jiugong refined the fruit, the power of his physical body rose rapidly.
Only when his physical cultivation reached the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm did his progress begin to slow.
When he came back to himself, he had already consumed more than a dozen Star Fruits.
He cultivated the Nine Revolutions Profound Art, and his physical body was powerful. Otherwise, someone else might already have advanced to Grand Unity Golden Immortal.
After this breakthrough, Deng Jiugong was amazed by how much energy it took to cultivate the Nine Revolutions Profound Art.
If that energy had been given to someone else, they could probably have reached the Grand Unity Golden Immortal Realm!
Yet Deng Jiugong had only started at the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm and broken through three minor stages!
The Nine Revolutions Profound Art mainly developed the mysteries of one's physical body. After refining the Star Fruits, Deng Jiugong felt that even his punches carried the power of the stars.
This power seemed to come from an instinctive release. It could even prove useful in battle.
Although Golden Immortals could begin to touch upon the laws, this instinctive stellar power came entirely from refining the Star Fruits. It didn't mean that Deng Jiugong had mastered the Star Law.
All it meant was that his attacks contained a trace of stellar power, giving him a slight boost.
Deng Jiugong's combat strength still depended mainly on the cultivation method he practiced, his cultivation level, and the power he could unleash by using both blades to activate the Vast Void Divine Blade Art!
The Nine Revolutions Profound Art primarily developed the mysteries of one's physical body.
It wasn't simply about making one's physical body stronger.
In ancient times, the Witch Clan had cultivated the Nine Revolutions Profound Art. But because their physical bodies were too powerful, they focused solely on physical cultivation. As a result, neither the Great Witches nor the Ancestral Witches had a primordial spirit.
However, Deng Jiugong had never heard of anyone creating a powerful world within their own body.
At the Golden Immortal Realm, one could open up and evolve a world.
If one opened a world inside their body and evolved it to a sufficiently high level, it would become another realm of its own.
Thus, possessing an Inner World could bring about a world-shaking change in one's strength at the same cultivation level.
Therefore, Deng Jiugong intended to explore the mysteries of his physical body and evolve a world within it, choosing an unconventional path.
Hum!
He did as he'd decided. First, Deng Jiugong opened up a space within his body.
This space could only be considered a storage space, not a world. Under Deng Jiugong's evolution, it began to slowly expand.
There were probably many powerful figures in the Primordial World who had opened spaces within their bodies.
Deng Jiugong guessed that Kong Xuan must have a storage space within his body. Otherwise, the magical treasures and living beings he swept away with his Five-Colored Divine Light wouldn't simply disappear.
However, evolving an Inner World to a very high level was incredibly difficult.
The space within Deng Jiugong's body was currently evolving at an extremely slow pace, nowhere near the level of a world.
"Is it lacking an origin?"
Deng Jiugong murmured.
With a thought, he moved the Spiritual Roots he had obtained earlier into his inner space, one by one.
Spiritual Roots wouldn't continue growing inside the system's storage space.
But they could keep growing in the space within his body. Their origins could also help evolve his Inner World and strengthen its world origin.
As more and more Spiritual Roots were transplanted into his inner space, a garden of Spiritual Roots soon took shape.
Deng Jiugong moved every Spiritual Root he had, including the Crimson Blood Dragon Fruit and the Star Fruit Tree, into the garden in one go.
Hum!
Just then, the origins of the Spiritual Roots began to disperse, accelerating the expansion of Deng Jiugong's inner space and rapidly guiding it toward becoming a world.
Before long, the space within Deng Jiugong's body had evolved to the level of a Dust World.
A Dust World was at least as large as Blue Star, Deng Jiugong's former home. However, the Dust World inside him was incomplete, and its laws were chaotic.
With the Spiritual Roots replenishing its origin, Deng Jiugong continued to evolve the world within him. It expanded without pause, and its world origin grew ever more abundant.
After who knew how long, Deng Jiugong's Inner World had expanded countless times over.
Hum!
