Jun Moxiao heard the system notification: check in at Kun Peng's Wasteland Hall and with several supporting characters. Strength increased to 30% of the Inscription Realm. Reward: Divine Silkworm Armor (Supreme weapon, primarily defensive, upgradable). Reward: Two Principles Heavenly Art (Immortal King art). Reward: one large jar of Soul-Congealing Liquid.

Jun Moxiao said, "Meng Die! You have to conceal my strength so this restriction won't affect me. These rewards are only so-so!"

Meng Die replied, "With this system here, you can rest easy! Besides, Master, your standards are too high. Every one of these treasures would make people green with envy. Anything produced by the system is guaranteed to be top quality."

Jun Moxiao said, "My mistake. Sorry, Meng Die. Does this Soul-Congealing Liquid work on remnant souls?"

Meng Die replied, "Yes!"

Jun Moxiao realized he could use it to restore the female Kun Peng's remnant soul.

Just then, all the Heavenly Prodigies outside rushed in, shouting, "Treasure Tools! There are so many!"

A moment later, they spotted the three people who had robbed them earlier. That masked man, in particular, was utterly terrifying.

Mo Shang, the Sea God's descendant, was there too. He was the strongest of these young prodigies, but remembering what had happened earlier frightened him as well. It had been a strike from an entirely higher dimension. He could only muster his courage and say, "Don't attack! I'm the Sea God's descendant, and I have a Venerable backing me!"

Jun Moxiao said, "Relax! I'm not interested in any of you. You're a descendant of the Sea God from the Demon Flood Dragon Tribe. Stop bullying the merfolk princess."

Mo Shang stubbornly retorted, "That's a matter between us sea tribes."

The merfolk princess said, "Mo Shang! You're too savage. You killed so many members of the Merfolk Tribe."

Jun Moxiao said, "Then he needs a proper lesson."

Jun Moxiao sent Shi Hao a voice transmission. "Hao Tian, get him. Use your cleaver, but don't kill him. This fellow is just a violent brute. Teach him a lesson."

After receiving the transmission, Shi Hao said to Mo Shang, "Mo Shang! Today, I'll show you what it means to get a Social Beating. Stop being so arrogant!"

Shi Hao drew his cleaver and hacked fiercely at Mo Shang, though he held back from killing him. Mo Shang was quite powerful and a violent brute himself. Their battle was intense, but he was no match for Shi Hao and spent almost the entire fight being beaten back.

Suddenly, a stone statue cracked open. A treasured bone flew out and fell into the center of the hall. Quick of eye and hand, Shi Hao snatched it up and exclaimed, "A Kun Peng treasured bone!"

The moment everyone heard that it was a Kun Peng treasured bone, their eyes turned red, and they attacked Shi Hao. After all, this was a precious technique of the Ten Fiends. Everyone wanted to seize it.

Yun Xi cried, "Shi Hao! Be careful!"

This Celestial Clan girl had developed feelings for Shi Hao. Her friend Yin Xue said, "Yun Xi, don't tell me you've fallen for him?"

Yun Xi replied, "I just don't want him to get hurt. After all, I was the one who invited him here to open Kun Peng's Wasteland Hall."

Qing Yun stood nearby, grinding his teeth.

Seeing how calm Jun Moxiao looked, the Witch hurriedly asked, "Aren't you worried someone will steal the Kun Peng treasured bone? So many people are attacking him, including several Venerable Realm Spirit Bodies. They can only use Spirit Transformation Realm strength here, but they're still Venerables!"

Jun Moxiao shook his head. "Don't worry."

Holding the Kun Peng precious technique, Shi Hao examined it with his senses. Nothing special! There's a pattern where the treasured bone fell, something like a Teleportation Formation. There must be something strange underground. There must be good stuff down there.

Shi Hao tossed the treasured bone into the air and shouted, "Go ahead and fight over it!"

Shi Hao plunged into the center of the hall. The pattern on the floor lit up, and a pitch-black opening appeared, sucking him in at once.

A Venerable recognized the opening and immediately said, "That's the Demon Transformation Cave! Anyone who falls in will instantly be reduced to a puddle of blood!"

Yun Xi cried, "Shi Hao...!"

The Witch asked Jun Moxiao, "Aren't you worried about him?"

Jun Moxiao replied, "This is a good thing for him. Don't worry. Come on, let's find some treasures. The Kun Peng Inheritance should be coming to an end soon."

Jun Moxiao received a system notification: deep within the Wasteland Hall were chaos soil, vajra divine wood, and Shoushan yang copper. These were divine materials essential for upgrading divine artifacts.

Jun Moxiao said, "Meng Die, we've struck it rich this time."

Jun Moxiao told the Witch, "Go grab some more Treasure Tools. I'm going deeper into the hall to collect a few things."

Jun Moxiao reached the depths of the hall. Good grief, there's so much! With a wave of his hand, he swept everything into the System Space!

The Treasure Tools in the hall had all been snatched up, and the Witch had grabbed a large pile herself.

Jun Moxiao returned to the Witch's side and said, "Let's go. We'll head outside first."

Saintess Yun Xi stood in a corner of the hall, silently grieving. She thought Shi Hao might be dead and blamed herself for inviting him here and getting him killed.

Jun Moxiao approached Yun Xi and said, "You're the Celestial Clan Saintess. Do you like Hao Tian?"

Yun Xi replied, "But he fell into the Demon Transformation Cave."

Jun Moxiao said, "Relax. Anyone capable of killing him hasn't been born yet. Let's head outside!"

Jun Moxiao took the Witch's hand and flew out of the Wasteland Hall. She asked, "Beast-Milk Baby fell into the Demon Transformation Cave. Aren't we waiting for him?"

Jun Moxiao replied, "Don't worry. He won't be coming out anytime soon. He has an inheritance to receive. Let's go have some fun while we wait."

The Witch said, "All right. I love traveling around and unwinding. Your big sister will keep you company and have some fun this time."

Jun Moxiao said to the Witch, "Say, Sister Witch, you said you don't have a name? I'm guessing you don't like the trouble that name brings. How about I give you one?"

The Witch said excitedly, "Sure! Xiaoxiao, you'd better pick a lovely name for your big sister!"

Jun Moxiao thought of Bai Feng Jiu, the adorable fox from Eternal Love.

A moment later, Jun Moxiao suggested, "How about Feng Jiu? What do you think?"

The Witch replied, "Great! From now on, my name is Feng Jiu."

The two traveled together for half a year, growing ever closer. Reluctant to part with Jun Moxiao, the Witch said, "Xiaoxiao! I have to go back. Chaos is coming to the Desolate Region, so be careful. Don't get hurt, or your big sister's heart will ache."

Jun Moxiao took out the Divine Silkworm Armor and gave it to the Witch, explaining, "Feng Jiu! This is the Divine Silkworm Armor, a Supreme Weapon Armor with powerful defenses. Wearing it will protect you. I'll also teach you several advanced Treasure Techniques. Afterward, merge with your primary body and stop cultivating primary and secondary bodies. Focus on your cultivation and stop comparing yourself with others."

After receiving the armor, Feng Jiu excitedly pulled the little fellow into her arms and kissed his cheek. She had won over this ten-year-old boy. At that moment, she was so thrilled that she felt she had reached the pinnacle of her life.

"All right! I'll do as you say. Your big sister won't stand on ceremony over this armor. Once my primary body comes down, I'll come find you in person and spend plenty of time with you."

Jun Moxiao said, "All right! Once you come down again, I'll take you to meet Sister Willow Deity."

Feng Jiu asked, "Who is Sister Willow Deity?"

Jun Moxiao replied, "An incredibly powerful figure. Sister Willow Deity has protected Hao Tian and me since we were little."

After the Witch left in high spirits, Jun Moxiao returned to the Northern Sea to wait for Shi Hao. He figured Shi Hao would soon emerge from seclusion.

Jun Moxiao summoned the Haotian Pagoda and the Great Void Divine Armor, then took out the divine materials he had collected in the Wasteland Hall to upgrade the two divine artifacts.

After receiving the divine materials, the two divine artifacts said, "Kid, we old-timers are going to upgrade first. Call us out if you run into trouble."

Earlier, Shi Hao had encountered a pool of lingering blood in the Demon Transformation Cave. It was Kun Peng true blood left behind by the female Kun Peng. Within it was an imprint she had left-the Kun Peng Precious Technique.

An image appeared before Shi Hao: in the northern depths, there was a fish named Kun. The Kun was so huge that one pot could not stew it. It transformed into a bird named Peng. The Peng was so huge that it needed two barbecue racks, one lightly sweet and one lightly spicy. Bring two bottles of Snow beer and join me as I boldly venture to the ends of the earth.

Ahem! Ahem! Sorry, the lines got mixed up.

Kun Peng's remnant soul transmitted her voice to Shi Hao. "Young man, it seems you are the destined one. This is the Kun Peng true blood I left behind, containing the inheritance of my Treasure Technique. I hope you achieve something with it! It contains the laws of yin and yang, which you can use to temper your body."

Shi Hao studied the Kun Peng Precious Technique in the Demon Transformation Cave. He also obtained Sea Spirit Liquid, the Kun Wood Meditation Cushion, divine brew, and the Exquisite Tower-all supreme treasures left behind by Kun Peng.

Shi Hao spent half a year in the cave, raising his strength to the great perfection of the Spirit Transformation Realm before deciding to leave. When he walked out of the Demon Transformation Cave, he was no longer in the Wasteland Hall.

Shi Hao had not seen sunlight for half a year. With a loud shout, he acted on impulse and decided to test the Kun Peng Precious Technique he had learned.

Not far away, Jun Moxiao heard the noise and guessed that Shi Hao had emerged from seclusion. He hurriedly flew toward the sound. Sure enough, there was Shi Hao, shouting excitedly, "Haha! The Kun Peng Precious Technique really is powerful!"

Seeing him, Jun Moxiao shouted, "Hao Tian! What are you screeching about?! Did you get the Kun Peng Precious Technique?"

He then unleashed a Treasure Technique against Shi Hao, and the two exchanged dozens of blows.

Shi Hao asked, "Xiaoxiao, you're still waiting for me? I got the Kun Peng Precious Technique. It's really powerful. Want to learn it?"

Jun Moxiao said, "You spent half a year in that cave. Let's return to Stone Village first. Take out the willow branch Sister Willow Deity gave you and ask her to send us back."

Shi Hao took out the willow branch and shouted, "Willow Deity, send us back to Stone Village!"

The willow branch shone, opening a spatial passage and pulling the two back to Stone Village.

Looking at Stone Village, Shi Hao shouted excitedly, "We're back!"

Seeing the two little fellows return, Old Grandpa chuckled. "It's good that you're back."

Looking at Old Grandpa's head of black hair, Jun Moxiao said, "Grandpa Chief, your hair has turned completely black. You look much younger again."

Jun Moxiao said to the Willow Deity, "Sister Willow Deity, you've recovered a lot more of your strength."

The Willow Deity replied, "Mm! Your strength is quite good too. Shi Hao has also reached the great perfection of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Since that's the case, break through to the Inscription Realm first!"

The Willow Deity imparted the method for breaking through to the Inscription Realm to Shi Hao.

Afterward, Shi Hao said excitedly, "Willow Deity, I got the Kun Peng Precious Technique. Let me teach it to you."

The Willow Deity pursed her lips. "All right!"

The Willow Deity thought, Xiaoxiao already taught me the Kun Peng Precious Technique. But remembering that the little fellow had asked her to give Shi Hao a chance to grow, she did not expose the truth.

Shi Hao found a quiet place to break through to the Inscription Realm. In this realm, one no longer simply relied on the runes of Fierce Beasts. Instead, one inscribed one's own runes within the body and formed simple combinations.

Shi Hao's comprehension was exceptional. A few days later, he broke through, reaching the middle stage of the early Inscription Realm.

Shi Hao laughed heartily and said to Jun Moxiao, "Xiaoxiao, I've reached the middle stage of the early Inscription Realm. What's your strength now?"

Jun Moxiao replied, "I've been having fun all this time instead of cultivating. I'm only at the peak of the early stage. You're almost catching up to me."

Jun Moxiao thought, Once I go check in at other places with you, I'll pull far ahead again. You'll be stunned all over again.

Shi Hao was delighted. He had finally caught up to this fellow.

After his breakthrough, Shi Hao went to share the good news with the Willow Deity. "Willow Deity, I've broken through to the Inscription Realm."

The Willow Deity said to Shi Hao, "Mm! Well done, Shi Hao. I have some news for you. Your grandfather has returned to the Martial King Manor and caused an uproar there over what happened to you."

Thinking of his grandfather, Shi Hao said excitedly, "Willow Deity, send me to the Martial King Manor. I want to find my grandfather."

At the mention of the Martial King Manor, Old Grandpa recalled that it was where Shi Hao had suffered. His Supreme Bone had been taken, and he had nearly died. Old Grandpa was deeply uneasy about Shi Hao going there now.

"Child, be careful in everything you do at the Martial King Manor. Danger lurks everywhere there."

"Let Xiaoxiao go with you. With him there, you can look out for each other. Be careful on the road."

The Willow Deity asked Jun Moxiao to accompany Shi Hao. With him there, the people at the Martial King Manor would not be able to stir up any trouble.

The Willow Deity extended a willow branch and swept it through the air, sending the two straight to the Martial King Manor in the Stone Kingdom.
