See the Great Way by Breaking Through Life and Death; Create the Future with the Nine-Turn Divine Art (Continued)

That final blow had taken speed, precision, and ruthlessness to the extreme. The Yin Yang Qilin hadn't even had time to scream before a single brick sent him straight to his death.

"Buzz—"

After killing the Qilin, the Primordial Brick burst into brilliant light and directly advanced to the level of a Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure!

"What a treasure. It advanced to mid-grade after killing a Grand Unity Golden Immortal. If I can kill a Saint with it someday..."

Yun Xiao stowed the Primordial Brick with anticipation, then began searching the Yin Yang Qilin's corpse.

"A Blood Origin Spear, a mid-grade Innate Spiritual Root, seven high-grade Acquired Spiritual Roots, and a high-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasure, the Star Chessboard..."

Yun Xiao casually put away one treasure after another.

With her current wealth, these things were little more than a welcome bonus.

Then she vanished in a flash.

A pureblood Yin Yang Qilin held a high position in the Qilin Clan. By killing him, she'd stirred up a hornet's nest. She couldn't stay on Buzhou Mountain any longer.

With that thought, Yun Xiao used Soaring Cloud Light, bolstered by the Law of Strength, and sped toward the foot of the mountain in an instant.

The Law of Strength bolstered anything that could be called strength, including the power of divine abilities, the power of laws, magical power, and physical strength.

Just a three-percent boost made Soaring Cloud Light more than twice as fast!

As she drew closer to the foot of the mountain, Pangu's Pressure weakened, and Yun Xiao sped up even more. Within days, she reached the foot of the mountain, then traveled a hundred million miles in an instant, heading straight for the Western Sea of the Primordial Wilderness!

"Crack!"

After Yun Xiao left, a small stone at the spot where she'd fought the Yin Yang Qilin—halfway up Buzhou Mountain—suddenly broke.

Their battle had slightly shaken Buzhou Mountain.

Perhaps this would become one of the conditions of fate that led a certain witch to split Buzhou Mountain apart.

At the same time, in a cave at the foot of Buzhou Mountain,

"Poof!"

A ball of black-and-white flame suddenly went out. At the sight, the Qilin standing guard beside it blanched and hurriedly ran outside.

Before long, countless enormous figures flew out from Qilin Mountain. Their killing intent made the void tremble.

Two Realms Mountain.

A white cloud drifted down and turned into Yun Xiao.

"Looks like Five Villages Temple hasn't been built yet."

She gazed at the empty Two Realms Mountain and was about to leave when a flash of red in the distance caught her eye.

"What's that?"

Yun Xiao instantly moved over and found a small fruit tree rooted in the heart of Two Realms Mountain. A few fruits shaped like babies hung from its branches.

Above the tree floated a cloud of red, glowing so brightly that it could be seen from far away.

"The Ginseng Fruit Tree. Hong Yun..."

Yun Xiao felt tempted.

The Ginseng Fruit Tree was a top-grade Innate Spiritual Root. It hadn't taken human form yet, making this the perfect time to pick its fruit!

But when she saw the countless skeletons around the tree—and sensed traces of Grand Unity Golden Immortal auras lingering around some of them—Yun Xiao forcibly suppressed her impulse.

She suddenly remembered that Zhenyuanzi had the Earth Book as his Accompanying Spiritual Treasure. It could draw on the power of the Primordial Wilderness's ancestral veins to create its own domain and twist time and space. It wasn't something she could take so easily.

With that in mind, Yun Xiao sighed helplessly and turned to leave without hesitation.

"Rustle, rustle."

After Yun Xiao left, the still Ginseng Fruit Tree suddenly swayed slightly.

It was as if a voice were saying, Do you think I could have transformed so smoothly without the protection of an Innate Restriction?

Several days later, Yun Xiao finally flew past Two Realms Mountain. A wave of rich spiritual energy greeted her, leaving her refreshed.

She had reached the Western Land. Its spiritual energy was abundant, and its forests were dense. With Barrier Penetrating Insight, she spotted several restrictions!

At that time, the West was every bit as good as the East!

That was only natural.

This was the beginning of creation. The Dragon-Han Tribulation hadn't even begun, let alone the Dao-Devil War. Luohu hadn't blown himself up and detonated the Western Spiritual Vein yet, so the West was no less prosperous than the East.

"A Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure? Not bad."

Yun Xiao had just come out of the first restriction and was already hurrying toward the next one.

"An Innate Mid-grade Spiritual Treasure, the Imitation Immortal Brush? What a treasure!"

"A Water Repelling Pearl? Why's it on land?"

"..."

Yun Xiao had come away with a bountiful haul. She couldn't help feeling grateful that she'd arrived before Luohu blew himself up. Otherwise, where would she have found so many treasures?

Just then, after she'd traveled a hundred million miles, a powerful tug suddenly seized her!

Barrier Penetrating Insight had detected a large-scale Innate Restriction!

Just as Yun Xiao was about to investigate, her nose and brow both twitched slightly.

"What's that smell?"

She sniffed, then abruptly looked to the side!

There, a Geng Metal White Tiger with a pair of wings on its back stood with one leg raised, watering a tree!

"Do you know you've trespassed on my territory?"

The Geng Metal White Tiger gave himself a few shakes, then looked at Yun Xiao coldly.

"Your... territory?"

Yun Xiao looked at the little stream beneath the tree and finally understood where the smell had come from.

Well, well. So this way of marking territory had been around since ancient times!

"I was just passing through. Sorry for the trouble. I'll be on my way."

Yun Xiao didn't want to waste any time here. She just wanted to hurry to the large-scale Innate Restriction and look for opportunities.

With that, she turned and flew off to the side.

"Did I say you could leave?"

The void rippled, and the Geng Metal White Tiger blocked Yun Xiao's way.

Besides the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin Clans, many other powerful clans existed. They were no match for the three great clans, but their bloodlines and inheritances were still formidable.

The Geng Metal White Tiger Clan was especially domineering in this part of the West. No one dared provoke them lightly.

The White Tiger blocking Yun Xiao was even the clan leader—the first White Tiger in the world!

Looking at Yun Xiao's flowing white robes and delicate skin, he was already starting to feel hungry without even realizing it!

"So you're saying you won't let me leave?"

Feeling the White Tiger's Peak Golden Immortal aura, Yun Xiao narrowed her eyes. A faint green glow began to shimmer around her.

"That's more like it. Someone as noble as Master shouldn't have to walk herself!"

"Of course you need a mount!"

The Geng Metal White Tiger now had two swollen, blackened eyes, and nearly all the feathers on his wings had been plucked. He was carrying Yun Xiao toward the Innate Restriction.

"So that's what you meant when you wouldn't let me leave. How thoughtful."

Yun Xiao smiled faintly and put away the White Tiger's Primordial Spirit imprint.

As long as she held the Primordial Spirit imprint, the Geng Metal White Tiger's fate was entirely in her hands. She could decide whether he lived or died with a single thought.

With that in mind, Yun Xiao patted the White Tiger's head. "Since you're so thoughtful, I'll grant your wish. I'll take you as my mount today and bring you on a tour of the Primordial Wilderness."

"Thank... you, Master!"

The Geng Metal White Tiger felt like crying. He regretted not checking his horoscope before leaving home!

"You look dashing and heroic, with the air of a king. I'll grant you the name... Xiao Bai!"

Yun Xiao thought for a long time before saying it with a serious expression.

After all that thought, you came up with Xiao Bai!?

What does that have to do with looking dashing and heroic or having the air of a king?!

The Geng Metal White Tiger grumbled inwardly, but didn't dare say anything. He could only lower his head and mumble his assent.
