Heart Blood, Spinal Jade Marrow, Jade Tablet of Creation, Chaos Pearl!

The destruction of all things in the outside world did not hinder Di Tian's exploration.

Nor did he lower his guard simply because he had entered the Array Formation, believing the path ahead would now be smooth.

The greatest taboo in doing anything was celebrating before the finish line.

The closer one came to success, the more cautious one had to be!

All his protective treasures were fully activated, while the Merit Golden Wheel radiated divine light to illuminate the dim cave, ensuring that he could detect danger in time when it arrived.

"Why does this feel a little off..."

Remaining fully alert as he followed the cave tunnel several thousand miles inward, after walking slowly for several months, Di Tian gradually noticed something unusual.

This was the hiding place of the Thirty-Sixth Grade Creation Green Lotus, the symbol of Heaven and Earth's Great Dao of Creation.

Even if it was not filled with Creation Qi and teeming with vitality, pleasing body and soul with every breath, there should at least have been some flowers, grass, or spiritual roots, shouldn't there?

Yet along the way, he had not seen the slightest trace of life. Instead, the place was terrifyingly silent, with nothing but grayish-white rock walls in sight.

And that alone would have been one thing.

But as he went deeper, he could faintly smell an extremely alluring scent of blood!

It made the bloodline within his body boil uncontrollably, like a fledgling swallow returning to its nest, struggling to break free...

"Wait, a fledgling swallow returning to its nest?!"

The moment those words surfaced in Di Tian's mind, it felt as though his head had exploded. He instantly thought of a possibility.

At the end of this cave was not some Creation Azure Lotus, but the blood essence or spinal marrow left behind after Father God's death!

"No wonder I've been able to faintly smell blood all along the way."

Having figured this out, Di Tian was overjoyed.

Compared to heaven-defying treasures, he still preferred becoming stronger himself!

Father God was the foremost among the three thousand Chaos Demon Gods, the uncrowned emperor of the Great Dao of Force.

The blood essence, spinal marrow, and other bodily essences he had left behind were all supreme treasures capable of allowing Di Tian to advance several steps, perhaps even undergo a complete transformation!

"This really is a windfall from heaven!"

With his heart surging, Di Tian continued forward cautiously while secretly quickening his pace.

Ten days later, light suddenly appeared, and the world before him opened wide!

Within a vast and boundless karst cave, countless stars reflected across the heavens, tens of thousands of stalactites hung upside down, and two thousand-zhang stone pillars connected heaven and earth!

An irresistible temptation flooded his nostrils, and his bloodline churned wildly.

Even Di Tian's eyes could not help but take on a trace of fervor and excitement.

Unable to suppress the stirring in his heart any longer, he soared into the center of the karst cave and landed atop the thousand-zhang stone pillar that attracted him the most.

The instant he stepped onto the pillar, Di Tian's face was filled with boundless excitement and ecstasy!

At the center of the stone pillar, within a hundred-zhang-deep hollow, flowed Pan Gu Jade Marrow, white as jade and thick as slurry. It seemed to bear the imprinted might of a Demon God, such that all Myriad Spirits who beheld it would have to bow and submit!

Above it floated a crystalline drop of Pan Gu's Heart Blood Essence, its divine might eternal, as though the Three Thousand Great Daos were all hidden within!

"They're both here! This time, I've truly struck it rich!"

As the most refined part of Father God's body, there was no need to say more about Heart Blood Essence.

It contained the Great Dao of Force. Obtaining it was practically equivalent to obtaining a ticket to ascend to Grand Luo of Hunyuan.

As long as one cultivated step by step and did not die midway, one would certainly be able to enter the Realm of Hunyuan Great Luo through the Great Dao of Force!

As the source of Father God's bodily power, the essence of his bones, and the origin of his blood—

The mysteries of Pan Gu Jade Marrow and its enhancement of the physical body surpassed Heart Blood Essence by a hundredfold!

It was the key for Innate Sacred beings like them to reverse their foundations back into Chaos, and the stepping stone to prove the Dao of Hunyuan Great Luo through the physical body.

Even the Twelve Ancestral Witches of later generations, so long as they possessed Pan Gu Jade Marrow—

Even without a Primordial Spirit to wield Laws or comprehend the mystery of Hunyuan returning to one, they could still break through their own flaws and attain Grand Luo of Hunyuan through the physical body!

"This stone pillar contains such a heaven-defying divine treasure. Then what kind of heaven-defying existence could be placed atop the other pillar?"

The moment this thought arose, Di Tian could no longer restrain the impulse in his heart and headed straight for the remaining stone pillar.

"The Chaos Pearl is stored here?"

The instant he stepped onto the stone pillar, a round pearl of Chaos color entered Di Tian's sight. It contained all phenomena of the heavens and endless Time and Space.

With Father God's inherited memories, he easily recognized it as the Chaos Pearl, one of the five Chaos Supreme Treasures!

It was a supreme treasure formed from the primordial origin. It contained five complete and flawless supreme Great Daos: the Great Dao of Time, Great Dao of Space, Great Dao of Creation, Great Dao of Qiankun, and Great Way of Chaos!

Together with the Heaven Splitting Divine Axe, Earth Splitting Chisel, Chaos Green Lotus, and Jade Tablet of Creation, it was known as one of the five Chaos Supreme Treasures!

Yet the Chaos Pearl's most heaven-defying ability was not its power to conceal heavenly secrets, devour all things, and sever the karma between the inner and outer heavens and earth.

Rather, it was that within it lay a realm of Time and Space that differed from the Chaos Void only in size!

That meant one could recreate Father God's feat of opening heaven and earth within it!

Although the world within the Chaos Pearl was not a Chaos world permitted by the Great Dao—

Its world rank was therefore somewhat lower than the Chaos Void outside.

But if one completed the feat of opening heaven and earth within it, one could still ascend in a single step and instantly enter the Half-Step Great Dao Realm!

Of course, the prerequisite was being able to complete the opening of heaven and earth without dying halfway through.

To fulfill that prerequisite, not only did one's cultivation need to be at least Grand Luo of Hunyuan, one also needed to have mastered all Three Thousand Great Daos!

Otherwise, it would simply be courting death!!

"When Father God opened heaven, the Chaos Pearl detached itself from him in order to evade the Heaven-Opening Calamity, concealing itself somewhere within the Chaos Void."

"I never expected it to end up here!"

As Di Tian rejoiced inwardly, a seemingly inconspicuous Broken Jade Fragment suddenly caught his attention.

Yet upon closer inspection, it seemed to contain endless Laws, with profound Dao rhythms and mysteries all within it.

"Could this be a fragment of the Jade Tablet of Creation?"

The instant the thought arose, Di Tian immediately prepared to envelop it with his Divine Sense and investigate.

But the fragment seemed to sense something. Before he could act—

It suddenly bloomed with profound Dao rhythms, and endless Great Daos manifested throughout the heavens, as though declaring its identity.

"It really is a fragment of the Jade Tablet of Creation. This truly is fourfold joy at the doorstep!"

"I really am Heaven and Earth's Legitimate Son, Father God's true bloodline and eldest son!"

Di Tian truly had not expected the gains from this trip to be so heaven-defying.

He immediately stored both items within his Palm World before turning and returning to the stone pillar that held the Pan Gu Jade Marrow and Heart Blood Essence.

However, just as he was preparing to collect them, he discovered that he could only take the Pan Gu Jade Marrow.

Because the Heart Blood Essence contained the Great Dao of Force, no matter what method he used, it was useless. He could not move it in the slightest.

"Looks like I can only absorb it here."

After several attempts, Di Tian could only stop struggling. Using the half of the Taiyin Authority he controlled, he informed Wang Shu that an opportunity had delayed him and that his return time was uncertain.

Then, cradling the Heart Blood Essence in both hands, he sat down cross-legged and began refining it.

And that single sitting lasted for two full Eons!

During those long years—

Di Tian's physical cultivation had already reached Great Luo Golden Immortal Perfection. He was only a sliver away from entering the realm of Mixed Origin Golden Immortal!

The Laws he cultivated had all reached over sixty percent comprehension.

And the instant the Heart Blood Essence was refined into his body, he immediately comprehended the mysteries of the Law of Force.

It thus overtook all the other Laws, catching up to them in less than a thousand years and reaching sixty-five percent comprehension!

Yet this was not even his greatest gain.

What Di Tian had not expected was that, apart from the inheritance of the Great Dao of Force—

This drop of Heart Blood Essence actually contained several more powers that reached all the way to the Origin of Heaven and Earth!!
