Lin Zhu had just discovered the mystery behind the waterfall when Xuan Du and Guang Chengzi also sensed something unusual.

"Senior Brother, there seems to be some strange treasure behind this waterfall. Why don't we go take a look?" Guang Chengzi said.

Lin Zhu studied the waterfall carefully.

The torrent plunged three thousand feet, the waterfall falling like the Milky Way itself, a full li wide and incomparably magnificent.

Behind the waterfall lay an enormous space, hidden by the cascading water, its mysteries impossible to discern.

"Let's go!"

With that, Lin Zhu shot into the air like a streaking rainbow, arriving in an instant. He tore through the waterfall and entered within.

Guang Chengzi and Xuan Du followed him inside.

As soon as the three entered, they found that there truly was another world behind the waterfall.

A massive cave shimmered with flowing light.

"Come, let's take a look."

Lin Zhu did not dare lower his guard. His mana surged through his body as he flashed into the cave.

Guang Chengzi and Xuan Du followed suit, flying into the cave as well.

The cave was ten zhang wide and unfathomably deep. Stone stalactites filled its interior, glimmering with five-colored radiance that dazzled the eye.

"Everyone, be careful. Let's head in and take a look." After saying this, Lin Zhu headed deeper into the cave.

Guang Chengzi and Xuan Du followed closely behind.

The cave stretched endlessly deep, with no bottom in sight.

However, radiant light flickered within, allowing them to see.

Lin Zhu estimated that the three of them had already entered deep into the mountain's belly.

At that moment, an immense aura came surging toward them, forcing all three to retreat repeatedly.

Shock appeared on their faces.

"Could a Great Divine Power expert be living here?"

Just as the three were astonished, two powerful auras intertwined within the cave.

"This is... Profound Yellow Qi!"

This strand of Profound Yellow Qi was exceedingly powerful, yet unlike that of the Primordial Measuring Heaven Ruler.

"Senior Brother, there must be some strange treasure here. What an opportunity!" After saying that, Guang Chengzi could barely contain himself. He leaped forward first, shooting toward the Profound Yellow Qi.

The next moment, Guang Chengzi was sent flying back and crashed onto the ground. His blood and qi churned violently, and the Profound Yellow Qi had nearly injured him.

"What powerful Profound Yellow Qi." Guang Chengzi was utterly astonished.

He had originally wanted to seize the opportunity before anyone else.

Yet he had not expected the Profound Yellow Qi to be so formidable. He could not enter at all.

Seeing this, Xuan Du stepped forward. "Let me try."

With that, he circulated his mana and summoned the Taiji Diagram to protect his entire body as he slowly advanced.

The Profound Yellow Qi continuously tore at the Taiji Diagram. Xuan Du walked for half a li, but the pressure ahead grew ever stronger. Every step consumed a considerable amount of his mana.

After another hundred or so steps, sweat covered Xuan Du's forehead. Knowing this was not his destined opportunity and that it could not be forced, he could only retreat.

"Senior Brother, this Profound Yellow Qi is exceptionally powerful. I cannot enter. You are in the Golden Immortal Realm. I wonder if you can make it through."

Lin Zhu nodded slightly upon hearing this, told the two to wait, and stepped forward himself.

Lin Zhu knew that this Profound Yellow Qi would be difficult to enter.

He gathered all his mana to protect himself while extending his divine sense to probe the situation ahead.

Before long, Lin Zhu had advanced more than a li, and the pressure grew increasingly immense.

Lin Zhu stopped walking. Rather than panicking, he began to comprehend the pressure of the Profound Yellow Qi.

Suddenly, inspiration struck him.

This Profound Yellow Qi was something that could only be encountered by chance!

Would it not be perfect for tempering his body?

Although the Measuring Sky Ruler contained Profound Yellow Qi, it was not so fierce and could not temper the body.

Lin Zhu no longer used his mana to resist the immense pressure. Instead, he allowed it to press down upon his body.

At the same time, mana surged within him as he began absorbing the Profound Yellow Qi to temper his body.

A full hundred years passed. Lin Zhu's physical body advanced greatly, and he could no longer feel the pressure of the Profound Yellow Qi.

He then stepped forward once more.

After walking several dozen steps, faint pressure came from ahead again.

Lin Zhu paid it no mind and continued onward. Only when he felt immense pressure did he stop again and absorb the Profound Yellow Qi to refine his body.

Thus, Lin Zhu advanced and stopped repeatedly. He spent a full five hundred years doing so, his physical cultivation continuously improving.

True Immortal Realm... Profound Immortal... Golden Immortal Realm!

Another three hundred years passed, and Lin Zhu's physical cultivation had reached a level comparable to a Grand Yi Golden Immortal. He could no longer feel any pressure from the Profound Yellow Qi.

At the same time, an arcane message emerged in Lin Zhu's mind.

Your body has been tempered by Profound Yellow Qi. You have comprehended the weight of the Profound Yellow and obtained the Grand Void Body Refining Method!

Lin Zhu's eyes flashed, and delight rose in his heart.

This method absorbed innate qi to temper the body. It was unfathomably profound, hence its name, the Grand Void Body Refining Method.

No longer feeling any pressure, Lin Zhu flew onward.

Soon, a Treasure Pool appeared before him.

Profound Yellow Qi roiled within the pool. It was actually a pool of Profound Yellow Water.

Within the Profound Yellow Heavy Water, a precious pearl slowly revolved.

Lin Zhu extended his divine sense and quickly understood what the pearl was.

This Profound Yellow Pearl had originated when the Great Dao bestowed Profound Yellow Qi in ancient times, dividing it into two.

One portion formed the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Pagoda, while the other became the Primordial Measuring Heaven Ruler in Lin Zhu's possession.

As for this Profound Yellow Qi, it was formed after the Profound Yellow Mother Qi Root lost all its Profound Yellow Qi and fell into the Primordial Wilderness, evolving over countless years. It was called the Profound Yellow Pearl.

A treasure!

An absolute Supreme Treasure!

Lin Zhu was overjoyed, marveling at the heaven-defying fortune he possessed.

He had actually found such a treasure within this mountain.

This Profound Yellow Heavy Water was an exceptional material for refining artifacts. If integrated into a magical treasure, it could increase its might without limit.

The Profound Yellow Pearl was an even greater Supreme Treasure. It could continuously release Profound Yellow Qi and transform it into Profound Yellow Heavy Water.

Lin Zhu quickly calmed down, then waved his hand and drew the Profound Yellow Pearl toward himself.

Along the way, he had used the Profound Yellow Qi to temper his body, staining himself with its aura. Thus, the Profound Yellow Pearl did not resist his claim.

The moment the Profound Yellow Pearl fell into his hand, Lin Zhu discovered something startling.

Because of the Profound Yellow Mother Qi Root, the Profound Yellow Pearl had already lost its spiritual vitality and no longer produced Profound Yellow Qi.

In other words... the remaining Profound Yellow Qi truly was merely what remained?

"After countless years, this Profound Yellow Qi still exists. It truly deserves to be called a supreme treasure of the Primordial Wilderness!" Lin Zhu could not help sighing.

However, even if the Profound Yellow Pearl was like a dead object, it was still an exceedingly rare treasure.

Besides... it might not be beyond saving.

After putting away the Profound Yellow Pearl, Lin Zhu was about to collect the pool of Profound Yellow Heavy Water when a thought suddenly struck him.

Now that he possessed the Primordial Measuring Heaven Ruler and the Twelve Sea Stabilizing Divine Pearls, perhaps he could use this Profound Yellow Heavy Water to evolve the Twelve Sea Stabilizing Divine Pearls into heavens.

With that thought, Lin Zhu took out the Primordial Measuring Heaven Ruler and summoned the Sea Stabilizing Divine Pearls.

Activating the two treasures, he sat cross-legged and began comprehending the Method of Evolving Heavens through the Sea Stabilizing Divine Pearls.

This comprehension lasted another several hundred years.

At last, Lin Zhu gained some understanding, as though he had grasped something.

If he continued comprehending for another thousand years, he would surely understand the Method of Evolving Heavens through the Sea Stabilizing Divine Pearls.

If the Sea Stabilizing Divine Pearls could evolve into heavens, their power would greatly increase. They might even become Supreme Treasures.

"Senior Brother!"

Lin Zhu still wanted to continue comprehending when Guang Chengzi's voice reached him.

Lin Zhu could only end his contemplation and put away the Primordial Measuring Heaven Ruler and the Sea Stabilizing Divine Pearls.

At the same time, with a wave of his hand, he collected the pool of Profound Yellow Water.

Once Lin Zhu collected the Profound Yellow Water, the pressure here vanished. Xuan Du and Guang Chengzi came shooting toward him.

"Senior Brother!" the two called out together.
