Primordial Wilderness: This poor Daoist Yun Xiao, Saint of Three Immortal Island!

Hum!

All the Magical Power of Yun Xiao's Early Golden Immortal Realm poured into the Mysterious Yellow Star Silk. The moment she finished Refining it, she discovered a delightful surprise!

Within this Mysterious Yellow Star Silk, there were actually a full twenty-four Innate Restrictions!

In the Primordial Era, different grades of Innate Spiritual Treasures contained different numbers of Innate Restrictions.

A Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure held one to twelve Innate Restrictions.

A Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure held thirteen to twenty-four Innate Restrictions.

A High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure held twenty-five to thirty-six Innate Restrictions.

A Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure held thirty-seven to forty-eight Innate Restrictions.

An Innate Supreme Treasure held forty-nine Innate Restrictions.

Acquired Spiritual Treasures followed the same grading system as Innate Spiritual Treasures. The difference lay in their origin: one was born before Heaven and Earth, the other after. Generally speaking, Acquired Spiritual Treasures were somewhat weaker in power than Innate Spiritual Treasures of the same grade—but this was not an absolute rule.

At this moment, the Mysterious Yellow Star Silk in her hand contained a full twenty-four Innate Restrictions. This meant that although it was a Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, its power was already comparable to some ordinary High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures.

This was truly an unexpected windfall.

After a brief moment of surprise, Yun Xiao calmed herself, immersed her mind, and began to Refine the restrictions within the Mysterious Yellow Star Silk.

The first Innate Restriction!

The second Innate Restriction!

After spending a full hundred thousand years, she finally Refined all twenty-four Innate Restrictions!

A spiritual treasure conceals its own radiance.

Now that the Mysterious Yellow Star Silk had been completely Refined, it withdrew all its treasure light, appearing like an ordinary square of yellow silk hovering above Yun Xiao's head.

But its power was absolutely terrifying and boundless. Even a simple strike carried the weight of countless thick Mysterious Yellow streams and Star Origins crashing down. An ordinary Peak Golden Immortal would likely be unable to withstand it.

"With the Mysterious Yellow Star Silk protecting me, even if I encounter a Primordial Unity Golden Immortal Expert, I may not be able to slay them, but at the very least, I can ensure my own survival!"

Yun Xiao murmured, but she did not rush to leave. As a Beginner Innate Divine Being, she naturally had inherited knowledge from the time of her transformation.

According to the map in her mind, that top-grade blessed land was located in the Eastern Sea of the Primordial Era. At this time, during the Fierce Beast Tribulation, the myriad innate races had already emerged, and the Dragon Clan occupied the Eastern Sea. Others might not know, but she was well aware of the Dragon Clan's might. They were not the Four Seas Dragon Clan of later ages, whose palace could be ransacked by a single monkey. This was the Dragon Clan at their peak—one of the three great hegemons of the Primordial Era during the future Dragon-Han Tribulation. As for the Ancestral Dragon, his current cultivation was at least at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm, and it was even possible he had reached the Golden Immortal of the Origin Realm.

The Top-grade Blessed Land was right there; it wasn't going to run away.

It was perfectly fine to first raise her strength to its peak before seeking opportunities. Walking the Primordial Era, it was always right to be a little more steady!

Yun Xiao sat cross-legged, her body radiating a faint sacred aura. The Great Dao Talisman between her brows blazed with light, expounding infinite profound truths of the Great Dao. As she continuously comprehended, countless winds of the world—winds with form, winds without form—seemed to gather around her. From afar, she appeared to be the very center of a storm. For millions of li around, the creatures of the Eastern Sea—shrimp, crabs, sea wolves, killer whales—all dove straight to the deepest ocean floor!

During the Fierce Beast Tribulation, time was the cheapest thing of all.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten epochs passed in a flash.

"Hoo... so this is the Natal Innate Divine Ability I inherited?"

On this day, Yun Xiao slowly opened her eyes. A glimmer of sharp light flickered within her gaze. With a single movement of her form, a flash of white light streaked past.

The next moment, her breathtaking figure had already appeared millions of li away. Her white dress fluttered and scattered behind her, like a celestial maiden amidst the clouds—ethereal and utterly exquisite to the extreme.

"My name is Yun Xiao. This divine ability is related to speed, so I shall name it Soaring Cloud Light!"

Yun Xiao murmured. As a being transformed from clouds, her natural speed was already great, and her inherited abilities were mostly speed-related divine powers.

Among the famous speed-type great divine abilities of the Primordial Era was the Earth-Traversing Golden Light, one of the Thirty-six Great Divine Abilities. When cultivated to Major Accomplishment, it was not inferior to the Demon Emperor's Golden Crow Rainbow Transformation Technique. This was precisely why Yun Xiao named her ability Soaring Cloud Light.

"Open Personal Panel!"

As Yun Xiao spoke, a screen of light immediately appeared before her.

...Personal Panel...

Name: Yun Xiao

Origin: Beginner Innate Divine Being

Cultivation: Early Golden Immortal Realm

Divine Ability: Soaring Cloud Light

Spiritual Treasure: Mysterious Yellow Star Silk (Mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure)

Note 1: Primordial Era origins are divided into Acquired, Innate, Innate Divine Being, and Chaos Demon God. Each major origin is further divided into Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and Top-grade.

Note 2: Primordial Era cultivation realms are divided into: Heavenly Immortal, True Immortal, Mysterious Immortal, Golden Immortal, Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, Great Luo Golden Immortal, Golden Immortal of the Origin, and Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal of the Origin. Each major realm is divided into four minor stages: Early, Mid, Late, and Peak.

Looking at the panel before her, a smile appeared on Yun Xiao's face.

Soaring Cloud Light was her Natal Innate Divine Ability, perfectly suited to her being. Even with just initial comprehension, she could traverse millions of li in an instant. If she reached Perfection, it would surely rank among the top-grade escape arts of the Primordial Era.

It might even rival the Earth-Traversing Golden Light, one of the Thirty-six Great Divine Abilities!

As for the Mysterious Yellow Star Silk, it was a spiritual treasure of no small power. Now that she possessed Both Movement and Attack, she could finally go and take a look at that Top-grade Blessed Land.

With this thought, a look of anticipation appeared on Yun Xiao's face.

After all, even the opportunities within an ordinary blessed land would make a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal salivate—let alone a top-grade blessed land. Even a Saint would likely be tempted!

"Swish!"

Without further hesitation, Yun Xiao transformed into a flawless, pure white Immortal Cloud, streaking millions of li in an instant as she sped toward the location marked on the map.

The vastness of the Primordial Era defied description.

Even at such speed, it took a full several months before she finally reached the shores of the Eastern Sea.

"Hmm?"

Just then, Yun Xiao gazed out over the Eastern Sea. In the far distance, a stretch of land was hurtling toward her, churning up towering waves ten thousand zhang high.

Sixty million li, fifty million li, ten million li...

Closer, ever closer. Before long, it loomed before her.

"What is this?"

A flicker of surprise crossed Yun Xiao's eyes. This was no continent—it was an unimaginably colossal whale. On its back grew dense, lush forests, and countless spirit birds circled in the air above. From afar, it looked exactly like a landmass!

"So this is the Primordial Era..."

Yun Xiao sighed softly. Even though she had mentally prepared herself, having such a massive living creature right before her eyes was still a tremendous visual shock.

Still, she had no intention of disturbing it. Turning into a white cloud, she continued onward.

This whale exuded the aura of the mid-Golden Immortal Realm—no weakling. She had only just taken form and had no reason to provoke an enemy.

Besides, the top-grade blessed land was not far away. Right now, securing that opportunity was the priority.

"Boom!"

But just as Yun Xiao swept past the whale's back—

A colossal wave, ten thousand zhang high, slammed toward her! The water could sever metal, brimming with boundless Killing Intent, nearly splitting the void itself!

Yun Xiao's eyes narrowed. In an instant, she flashed ten thousand li away. The wave crashed onto the shore, gouging out a bottomless chasm!

She looked down coldly. By now, the giant whale had transformed into a middle-aged man in a blue robe, stepping atop the waves as he rose to stand before her, staring at her with greedy eyes.

That look—like he hadn't seen a female in a million years!

"I am not a female whale," Yun Xiao said flatly. Clearly, she had misunderstood.

"Whether you're a female whale or not means nothing to me. Male or female—it's all the same to me," the man said with a cruel smile, even licking his lips.

He was the Whale Ancestor. From far off, he had spotted the radiant treasure-light around Yun Xiao, clearly a sign of great fortune. The thought of killing her and taking her treasures had instantly taken root in his heart.

He had no idea why Yun Xiao had suddenly blurted that out, but to him, male or female truly made no difference.

After all, when killing someone for their treasures, did one need to ask their gender?

As for whether killing would incur Karma—that was beyond his knowledge.

The Primordial Era had just begun; all beings were still ignorant. Without the Dao Ancestor to preach and enlighten them, this age was one where might made right.

"Male... or female, it's all the same!?"

Yun Xiao's eyes went wide. Clearly, her misunderstanding had deepened. She looked at him as if he were utterly disgusting!

"What's with that look? You're asking for death!"

The Whale Ancestor caught the disgust in her expression. With a furious roar, the calm Eastern Sea of the Primordial Era behind him suddenly erupted into terrifying waves millions of zhang high, like a pair of giant hands crashing down toward Yun Xiao!

In his eyes, although Yun Xiao also radiated the aura of the Golden Immortal Realm, she was only at the early stage. A single minor realm separated them.

But as the Whale Ancestor, his inherited power was extraordinary—he was a standout even among those of the same cultivation level.
