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

As soon as she entered, a dense wave of innate spiritual energy washed over her. It was so thick it had almost turned to mist, and even her cultivation—which had stagnated for years—grew by the slightest fraction.

"Just as expected of the place where the Three Pure Ones took form. It really is extraordinary!"

Yun Xiao's face lit up. She felt so refreshed that every hair on her body stood on end as she continuously absorbed the spiritual energy.

Elsewhere, the Innate Restrictions were still filled with Chaos Qi Streams. Even top-grade Blessed Lands were no exception.

Even at Zhunti and Jieyin's place, there were only a few spots with thin traces of innate spiritual energy.

But here, the spiritual energy was so dense it had turned to mist, and the Dao Sound rang without end. Such unparalleled blessings were simply incomparable!

"Six high-grade acquired spiritual roots!"

Yun Xiao had only taken a few steps when she spotted several spiritual roots swaying gently, scattering a wash of light.

"Four low-grade innate spiritual roots and one mid-grade innate spiritual root!"

"Innate Wisteria, Innate Pepper, Innate..."

As she made her way forward, Yun Xiao's harvest was abundant. Spiritual roots that were hard to find even after scouring the Primordial Wilderness Continent stood here one every hundred paces, while innate spiritual herbs were everywhere!

Yun Xiao gathered them all, not even sparing the spiritual soil. Everywhere she went, she left behind a mess of holes and pits...

She kept plucking and digging as she went, until at last she reached the deepest part of the restriction.

Before her, three wisps of pure energy floated in midair. One was purple, Shangqing; one was jade-colored, Yuqing; and one was white, Taiqing.

The three wisps of pure energy radiated an indescribable aura, their Dao Rhyme innate and natural. Auspicious energy formed into a rainbow cloud that stretched into the depths of the void, as if it would carry the Three Pure Ones away at any moment, allowing them to attain the Dao and become immortals.

Looking at the three wisps of pure energy before her, Yun Xiao felt a little melancholy.

In the Primordial Wilderness's usual course of events, she would have been of the lowest seniority. Sect Master Tongtian would have been her master, while Taiqing Laozi and Venerable Lord Yuanshi would have been her senior uncles. Yuanshi, in particular, would have bullied those weaker than him during the Canonization of the Gods, suppressing her beneath Qilin Cliff until she died and her Dao vanished.

But now, everything was completely different.

She had taken form before the Three Pure Ones and had now come to Kunlun Mountain. The fate that should have been set in stone was bound to change.

Who knew? Perhaps one day she could even surpass Venerable Lord Yuanshi in strength!

At the thought, Yun Xiao's mind suddenly cleared, as if some knot had come undone. Her cultivation speed increased as well.

"Let's start with a modest goal: prove the Dao of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal before the Fierce Beast Tribulation ends."

Her gaze brightened. She slowly reached toward the three wisps of pure energy, intending to grab a few handfuls.

Boom!

But at that moment,

a small pagoda abruptly emerged from the void, spilling boundless mystic yellow light and firmly blocking Yun Xiao!

The Heaven and Earth Mystic Yellow Exquisite Pagoda?

Yun Xiao raised an eyebrow. With a thought, the Primordial Measure Heaven Ruler slashed toward the Mystic Yellow Exquisite Pagoda in a flash of purple light!

Vmmm—

A ripple swept out from the small pagoda. The mystic yellow light churned and scattered, yet it still kept the Primordial Measure Heaven Ruler at bay. It hadn't even awakened the slumbering Three Pure Ones.

"Fine."

Yun Xiao put away the Primordial Measure Heaven Ruler and didn't bother trying again. Instead, she headed toward the innate spiritual roots nearby.

If she couldn't get the pure energy, surely there was no harm in picking a few flowers and plants.

The spiritual roots surrounding the Three Pure Ones were even more lush than those on the outskirts. There were five high-grade innate spiritual roots alone, dozens of mid-grade innate spiritual roots, and over thirty low-grade ones...

And every last one had ripened and borne fruit!

Yun Xiao didn't hold back. She swept up all the spiritual roots and spiritual soil.

"The spiritual energy here is abundant. It's the perfect place to refine pills and cultivate."

She glanced at the still-sleeping Three Pure Ones, then circulated the Great Dao of Artifacts and used the ore vein in her possession to forge a pill cauldron. Next, she plucked a mid-grade acquired spiritual fruit and tossed it inside.

She set the pill cauldron beneath the Spirit Coffin Lamp and sent in a stream of magical power. Divine flames blazed as the fruit inside the cauldron began to liquefy, then gathered together into a crystal-clear spiritual pill.

"A second-revolving spiritual pill."

Yun Xiao took out the pill and nodded in satisfaction.

In the Primordial Wilderness, refining pills also required a certain level of cultivation.

First-revolving pills were for Mysterious Immortals.

Second-revolving pills were for Golden Immortals.

Third- and fourth-revolving pills corresponded to Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

Fourth- to sixth-revolving pills were for Grand Unity Golden Immortals.

Sixth- to eighth-revolving pills were for Quasi-Saints.

Ninth-revolving pills were for Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortals—that is, Saints.

Pills below the fourth revolution required acquired spiritual roots to refine, while those of the fourth revolution and above required innate spiritual roots.

Then Yun Xiao urged the divine flames and refined all the mid-grade acquired spiritual fruits into second-revolving spiritual pills.

She swallowed every pill in one go. In an instant, a vast, ocean-like surge of magical power burst forth from within her!

"Nine Revolutions Primordial Technique."

Yun Xiao sat cross-legged and closed her eyes. A vortex abruptly formed at her brow, constantly devouring the surging magical power.

At the same time, spiritual energy from across the restriction frantically converged on her.

Vmmm—

The next moment, she finally broke through the bottleneck at the mid-stage of the Golden Immortal realm, and a terrifying aura spread outward.

And this was only the beginning.

Ten years later, late-stage Golden Immortal.

Fifty years later, perfected Golden Immortal!

At last, the energy in the spiritual pills ran out, and Yun Xiao successfully advanced to the Golden Immortal Perfection stage. She was only one step away from breaking through to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm!

Golden Immortal Perfection!

Yun Xiao rose to her feet. A terrifying aura swept through the void, sending ripples rolling outward.

Though she was still in the Golden Immortal realm, compared with the early stage, her cultivation had undergone a qualitative transformation.

If the magical power inside her had once been an ocean, now it was twelve oceans!

It had expanded by more than tenfold!

Moreover, her Primordial Spirit had grown more solid through her progress in the Nine Revolutions Primordial Technique. Even if a perfected Grand Unity Golden Immortal attacked with all their strength, they would struggle to shatter it with a single blow!

"System, open the Personal Panel."

Yun Xiao thought to herself, and a screen appeared before her.

She had undergone a complete transformation!

Her foundations had already advanced to the level of a mid-level Innate Divine Being, thanks to refining one-tenth of the Pangu Jade Marrow.

As for everything else, like her Great Dao laws and Spiritual Treasures, there was no need to say more. Her combat strength had clearly increased by a great deal!

And Xiao Bai had also advanced to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm after cultivating on Kunlun Mountain for these past centuries.

"The spiritual energy here has been used up. It's time to find somewhere else to cultivate."

Yun Xiao looked at the thin traces of innate spiritual energy around her, took a deep breath, and squeezed out the very last bit. Then she left the restriction.

Rumble!

As soon as she stepped outside, several bolts of lightning struck down from the sky. Yun Xiao looked up to see dark clouds covering the heavens. The world was in chaos, and the baleful aura of the tribulation grew ever denser.

Now and then, the roars of fierce beasts sounded from the North Sea beyond Kunlun Mountain. Then, after several dragon roars, the beasts fell silent.

"Has the beast tide completely swept across the entire Primordial Wilderness?"
