Su Mu used the Golden Crow Transforming Rainbow Technique, flying towards Shouyang Mountain like a golden lightning bolt.
As he passed by a mountain, he suddenly felt a strange fluctuation in the surrounding space.
Su Mu's heart stirred, sensing something unusual, and he quickly turned back. He circled in the air, muttering, "There's a spatial fluctuation, could it be a treasure?"
With curiosity and anticipation, Su Mu slowly descended to the ground, then carefully spread out his Spiritual Sense, meticulously probing the surroundings.
Soon, he sensed the source of the anomaly. Without hesitation, he extended his hands and tore forcefully, instantly ripping open the space before him, revealing a hidden Space Channel.
Su Mu stepped into it without hesitation and discovered a red gourd inside.
He gently picked up the gourd, feeling a mysterious and powerful aura emanating from it.
A surge of excitement rose in Su Mu's heart. He eagerly opened the gourd's stopper and looked inside.
However, to his surprise, a faint remnant soul was hidden within the gourd!
"A gourd... a remnant soul... could this be the legendary Nine-Nine Soul Scattering Red Gourd? Then, this remnant soul must be Hong Yun Ancestor?" Su Mu's eyes widened, looking at the gourd in his hand in disbelief.
He recalled the history of the Witch-Demon era, when Di Jun Tai Yi had surrounded and killed Hong Yun Ancestor, and Hong Yun Ancestor had ultimately self-destructed.
He hadn't expected that a remnant soul of Hong Yun Ancestor would still be preserved here.
"It's truly astonishing. It turns out that besides Hong Yun Ancestor reincarnating as Yun Zhongzi, another remnant soul is preserved here," Su Mu said with deep emotion, utterly shocked by this unexpected discovery.
After putting away the gourd, Su Mu left the area and returned to Shouyang Mountain.
He went straight to Shouyang Palace and met Nuwa, respectfully bowing and saying, "Teacher."
Nuwa looked at Su Mu with some confusion and asked, "Su Mu, what brings you here?"
Su Mu replied, "Teacher, I need Sister Jin Feng's help with something."
Both Nuwa and Jin Feng were very surprised. Nuwa asked, "Looking for Jin Feng?"
Jin Feng also asked, puzzled, "Su Mu, you're looking for me, what is it?"
Su Mu said seriously, "Teacher, I wish to ask Sister Jin Feng to take charge of the Kongtong Seal and enfeoff the remaining Three Emperors on my behalf. I plan to go into seclusion to cultivate and improve my strength to deal with the upcoming war."
Nuwa looked at Jin Feng, her eyes carrying a hint of expectation and trust.
Sensing Nuwa's gaze, Jin Feng immediately stood up and said firmly, "Empress, I am willing to go." Her voice was filled with determination and confidence, which was deeply moving.
Seeing Jin Feng agree so readily, Su Mu's heart immediately relaxed, and a sense of gratitude welled up within him.
He immediately took out the Kongtong Seal from his embrace, holding it with both hands and offering it to Jin Feng, his eyes full of sincerity as he said, "Thank you, Sister Jin Feng."
Jin Feng smiled as she took the Kongtong Seal, feeling the powerful energy contained within it. A flicker of excitement flashed in her eyes.
She looked up at Su Mu and said softly, "Su Mu, you don't need to be polite. I will go to the Human Ancestral Land now, cultivate there, and wait for the opportunity to officially appoint the Three Emperors." Her tone revealed a sense of eagerness, as if she could already see future glory.
Nuwa quietly watched the two, a gratified smile on her face.
She knew that Golden Phoenix's strength was sufficient for this task, and her relationship with Su Mu was also very close. She believed they could complete the mission.
However, when she saw Su Mu working so hard, constantly striving to improve himself, a sense of urgency welled up in her heart.
As Golden Phoenix's figure gradually faded into the distance, Nuwa secretly vowed to make herself even stronger.
She knew that only by continuously improving her cultivation could she better protect the human race and guard this beautiful homeland.
At this moment, a blazing flame ignited in Nuwa's heart, a dedication and pursuit of cultivation, as well as a yearning and anticipation for the future.
Su Mu and Golden Phoenix left Shouyang Palace and parted ways. Golden Phoenix went to the Human Ancestral Land, while Su Mu headed towards Bei Xuan's Cave Dwelling.
Arriving at the entrance of Bei Xuan's cave, Su Mu stopped and called out softly, "Junior Disciple Brother."
At this moment, Bei Xuan, who was cultivating inside the cave dwelling, heard Su Mu's voice. His heart rejoiced, and he quickly got up and walked out of the cave.
Seeing Su Mu standing outside the cave, Bei Xuan's face broke into a surprised smile, and he enthusiastically greeted him, "Senior Disciple Brother, why have you come? Please, come in quickly!"
Su Mu smiled and entered the cave dwelling, sitting down with Bei Xuan. As soon as they were seated, Bei Xuan eagerly asked, "Senior Disciple Brother, are you here to see me because you need my help with something?"
Su Mu looked at Bei Xuan, smiled slightly, and then waved his hand. Twenty-four shimmering Sea Calming Divine Beads appeared in his hand.
He placed the divine beads on the table and said to Bei Xuan with a smile, "Look."
Upon seeing the twenty-four Sea Calming Divine Beads, Bei Xuan was filled with shock and disbelief.
He widened his eyes, his voice trembling slightly, and said, "Se... Senior Disciple Brother, this... this... is this an Innate Supreme Treasure? Heavens! Congratulations, Senior Disciple Brother, on obtaining such a precious Treasure!"
Bei Xuan's eyes were filled with surprise and excitement, as if he had seen an unparalleled treasure.
However, despite the envy in his heart, he did not show any jealousy or dissatisfaction on his face.
Instead, he was genuinely happy for Su Mu, because their brotherhood was incredibly deep.
Su Mu smiled at Bei Xuan and asked softly, "How is it, do you like it?"
Bei Xuan looked excitedly at the treasure in his hand and nodded without hesitation, replying, "Of course, I like it! This is a supreme treasure, who wouldn't like it?" His eyes were filled with love and desire for this treasure.
Hearing this, Su Mu's face showed a hint of a gratified smile, and then he suddenly said, "You like it? Then I'll give it to you."
Bei Xuan froze and subconsciously replied, "Give it to me? Okay."
But then he suddenly snapped back to reality, looking at Su Mu in astonishment, and asked in disbelief, "Senior Disciple Brother, what did you say? Give... give it to me?" His expression became extremely surprised, as if he couldn't believe what he had heard.
Bei Xuan knew the preciousness of this treasure; it was a supreme treasure! How could something so valuable be given away so easily?
His heart was filled with doubt and shock. His gaze was fixed on Su Mu, trying to find an answer in his expression.
"Yes, it's for you." Su Mu nodded affirmatively.
Bei Xuan stood up, bowed solemnly to Su Mu, and said sincerely, "Thank you, Senior Disciple Brother."
"You're welcome." Su Mu waved his hand, then continued, "I'm going back to cultivate. You should quickly refine the twenty-four Sea Calming Divine Beads." With that, he turned and left.
Bei Xuan watched Su Mu's receding figure, secretly making a resolution in his heart: "Senior Disciple Brother is so good to me. I must continue to support and believe in him. No matter what difficulties and challenges I face in the future, I will face them together with Senior Disciple Brother."
In the Human Capital, Yao, as the leader of the Human Race, diligently governed the people with Yun Xiao's assistance.
He cared about people's livelihoods, formulated policies to promote economic development, and emphasized education to cultivate talent, making the Human Race increasingly prosperous.
Yao's achievements were recognized by everyone, and his prestige grew higher and higher.
When Yao's merits were complete, Di Ku announced that a Feng Shan Ceremony would be held at Mount Tai to thank the heavens for their blessings and pray for a better future for the Human Race.
At the Mount Tai Summit, Yao, dressed in magnificent ceremonial robes, ascended the altar with a solemn expression.
Beside him stood many ministers and representatives from various races, all filled with anticipation for this Feng Shan Ceremony.
Just then, a melodious bird cry echoed from the sky.
A giant Golden Phoenix descended from the clouds, transforming into an Innate Dao Body. She held the Kongtong Seal, radiating brilliant light.
The Golden Phoenix landed before Yao and smiled, saying, "Martial Ancestor, Su Mu has other matters and cannot come in person. For this Feng Shan Ceremony, I will enfeoff the Great Emperor of the Human Race on his behalf."
Yao nodded gratefully, signifying his acceptance.
The Golden Phoenix then spoke loudly: "Yao has selected talents, promoted education, actively managed floods, cared for the people's sentiments, and governed for the people. He shall be the Great Emperor of the Human Race, as witnessed by heaven and earth!"
As the Golden Phoenix's words fell, a brilliant Golden Cloud of Merit suddenly descended from the sky. This golden cloud sprinkled down like golden rain towards Yao and Yun Xiao.
Yao bathed in this golden radiance and felt a powerful force surge into his body.
His cultivation instantly broke through the bottleneck, reaching the early stage of Golden Immortal of the Origin.
Yun Xiao also benefited greatly. She successfully severed her good corpse and became a powerful expert at the early stage of Quasi-Saint.
Everyone present witnessed this scene and was amazed. They all knelt down and kowtowed, expressing their respect and blessings to Yao.
As the Feng Shan Ceremony concluded, the Human Race ushered in a new chapter.
Shun, as the next successor, began to govern the Human Race.
Western Sumeru Mountain.
Zhunti exclaimed excitedly, "I, the West is suffering... suffering has turned to joy, haha."
Jieyin's bitter melon face revealed a smile uglier than crying.
Zhunti said, "Maitreya, you must wholeheartedly assist Shun and strive for more merit for our Western Sect."
Maitreya said excitedly, "Thank you, both Teachers. Maitreya will definitely complete the task assigned by the Teachers."
"Good, go," Zhunti said with satisfaction.
Maitreya then went to the human race and began to assist Shun in governing them.
On Shouyang Mountain, Su Mu sat in his Cave Dwelling, preparing to refine pills.
He carefully arranged the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials on the table, his eyes focused and resolute.
Then, he took a deep breath and summoned the True Sun Fire. The flames burned fiercely, illuminating the entire Cave Dwelling.
He silently recalled every step and detail of the Taiqing Alchemy Technique, the knowledge deeply etched into his mind.
Although he had a profound understanding of alchemy, he still felt a trace of nervousness at this moment, as this was his first time attempting to refine such a precious pill.
However, he knew he couldn't back down, for only through practice could he truly grasp the essence of alchemy.
Thus, he concentrated his mind and poured his entire being into the alchemy process.
Su Mu did not yet have an "Alchemy Furnace," but he was not discouraged.
Instead, he used his own powerful immortal energy to transform it into an Illusory Alchemy Furnace.
Although this alchemy furnace was not physical, it contained his boundless immortal energy and belief.
He placed the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials into the "Alchemy Furnace" and tempered them with the True Sun Fire, gradually condensing the medicinal power.
After Nine Revolutions Nine Refinements, he could clearly feel the medicinal power within the pill becoming increasingly potent, like a brilliant pearl about to emit dazzling light.
His mood grew more excited with the passage of time, his heart filled with joy as he anticipated the final result.
After a long while, the entire "Alchemy Furnace" suddenly erupted in brilliant light. Simultaneously, a rich medicinal fragrance wafted out, filling the surrounding air.
When he opened the alchemy furnace, he saw nine pills lying quietly inside. Each one was golden yellow in color, as round and perfect as pearls.
Moreover, they emitted a faint immortal light from their surfaces. Upon closer inspection, one could vaguely see the Spiritual Energy circulating within the pills.
"This is the legendary Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir! And it's a Top-grade Golden Elixir! It has miraculous effects such as reviving the dead, transforming one's body, increasing Cultivation, and extending one's lifespan. Even Saints would covet it!" he exclaimed, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment and joy.
"If Taiqing Laozi knew I refined a Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir, and such a high-quality one at that, he'd probably spit blood from anger," Su Mu couldn't help but think.
