Su Yu remained calm, though somewhat regretful.

Indeed, a Saint Spirit was born within this piece of jade, and according to the emphasis of the Yin-Yang principle, it should be a Female Saint Spirit who was born with mastery of the Taiyin laws.

But fatally, this Saint Spirit had a portion of his life essence stolen from him at the very beginning of his conception!

The "life essence" mentioned here refers to the Nine-Aperture Spirit-Connecting Divine Liquid!

In the initial stage, the Saint Spirit's body produces the fluid of Fortune, which solidifies into the Spirit Clan and is then gestated and born after millions of years!

After their birth, the Saint Spirit can be divided into Stone Spirits, Fire Spirits, Water Spirits, etc., according to their attributes. For example, the Dragon Horse on Earth is a Saint Spirit evolved from innate auspicious energy. The Fire Spirit Cang Yan that appeared later was Saint Spirit transformed from a cluster of Divine Flame.

This divine liquid is truly miraculous. Although it cannot be used to prolong life, it is an invaluable treasure for infants, full of spiritual power, capable of shaping bloodlines and the Immortal Platform.

It is a supreme elixir used to cultivate extraordinary talents, and it is extremely rare and precious. It has the greatest effect on young children, while its effect on adults is greatly reduced because their physical development is almost complete.

The importance of the Spirit- Spirit-Connecting Divine Liquid to the Saint Spirit is the same as that of the Supreme Bone to Shi Hao and the Double Pupils to Shi Yi —it is something that is essential to life and death, and perhaps even more so.

Generally speaking, if the Saint Spirit's life essence is taken away by someone, it is basically a dead end, beyond any means to resolve or save him!

As the essence of stars and moon condensed, a graceful figure emerged from the two-meter-tall jade, radiating a metallic luster and imprinted with Heavenly God patterns. Its entire body was made of Sky-Blue Mother Gold.

Moreover, something was born at its head, radiating countless wisps of feather-like ripples, like a Flying Immortal, more dazzling than the stars, as brilliant as a magic lamp, so bright that people could not open their eyes to look at it.

"This is... the legendary Feathered Green Gold!" The little purple jade figure's voice trembled. He was so blinded by the Immortal Gold that he could hardly open his eyes. He was somewhat incredulous, and his heart was filled with boundless waves of emotion.

Su Yu reached out and stroked the cold azure jade, a look of regret in his eyes. This Saint Spirit was born with Immortal Gold, and its size was as tall as a person. Its entire body was Quasi-Emperor level azure gold. If it were to be born in its full potential, it would most likely be a Imperial Saint Spirit, or at the very least a high-level Quasi-Emperor.

Unfortunately, her fate was fraught with misfortune. This Female Saint Spirit lost too much of her life essence, her spirituality plummeted, and she suffered from severe congenital deficiencies. It could be said that she was already half-crippled. Her Immortal Platform was dim and her sea of consciousness was disordered. In this situation, no amount of cosmic essence could save her!

Judging from the state of the Saint Spirit within the jade, it was already mature, its essence comparable to Quasi-Emperor, and should have been born long ago. This was only the result of the Saint Spirit within the stone absorbing the essence of heaven and earth through its instinctive consciousness.

However, due to its spiritual deficiency, this Holy Saint Spirit was never able to be born.

The Quasi-Emperor laws within her body could not be intertwined and condensed; the vast essence she accumulated was merely an empty shell. She could only suppress the Saint King through sheer quantity, barely comparable to a weak Great Saint, but her quality was very weak, far from being able to compare with a true Quasi-Emperor...

After hesitating for a moment, Su Yu pointed out with one finger, three pure white immortal Immortal Qi swirling around his fingertip. The laws of the Great Dao manifested, and Xian Dao immortal smoke fell down, disappearing into the jade and forming a cycle of the Great Dao.

In an instant, mountains and rivers shook, space collapsed and twisted, countless stars appeared in the night sky, golden lotuses bloomed nearby, various strange phenomena appeared, and the yin and yang gave rise to the meaning of Fortune, wanting to defy fate!

Hundreds of breaths later, the Immortal Qi receded, and Qingyu withdrew its divine radiance, its entire body flowing with a faint luster, carrying a sense of returning to simplicity, exuding a lofty and ethereal aura, making the entire earth vein resplendent with gold and shimmering light.

Even though it is a stillborn fetus, its high level still allows it to be protected by heaven, bringing good fortune and avoiding misfortune. It can avoid most disasters simply by relying on its subconscious.

Her escape from Ye Fan in the original novel is clear proof of this!

"It's beyond saving. Even their consciousness is in complete Chaos. There's no way to save them..." Su Yu shook his head and didn't continue.

In a sense, this Saint Spirit's situation is equivalent to a severely damaged version of Shi Hao's. After the other party took her Spirit-Connecting Divine Liquid, they severely injured her sea of consciousness, cutting off all hope. It's a miracle she didn't perish on the spot.

Now her divine sense is even weaker than Immortal Medicine; it's merely the instinctive reaction of her physical body, no different from her demise!

Suppressing the chaotic thoughts in his mind, Su Yu calmed his mind and changed his attitude towards the piece of jade!

Although the creature within the jade cannot be saved, this precious body is of extraordinary value. Its body Quasi-Emperor Divine Gold, and it is accompanied by Feathered Green Gold Weapon, making it the best candidate for possession.

There are also the outer layers of Nine Heavens Azurefall Divine Jade and Azure Marrow Ancient Jade. The value of this jade is absolutely astonishing, even Quasi-Emperor would be tempted!

"This is already pretty good. There's no such thing as a free lunch. To pick up a Female Saint Spirit of Quasi-Emperor level on the street is a blessing I can't possibly bear."

Su Yu muttered to herself, trying to comfort herself, and her mood immediately improved.

With a flick of his sleeve, he stored the jade stone within his inner world and placed it inside Mount Buzhou.

The scenery in the mountains was quite different from before. In a valley, Divine Spring gurgled, its pure white liquid exuding a sweet fragrance. More than ten golden holy herbs took root in the five-colored medicinal field by the pool, their rich fragrance scattering a dazzling holy light that illuminated the entire ancient land.

In addition, two ancient trees were planted on both sides: one was the Sun Moon and Stars Tree, and the other was the Water and Fire Great Dao Tree, both of which were top-level immortal plants below the level of Semi-Divine Medicine.

Several fruits hung from the two sacred trees, their fragrance so intense it permeated one's very bones, as if one were about to ascend to heaven.

The fruit of the Stars Tree is silver, like flames burning, even more radiant than the sacred medicine.

The Water and Fire Dao Fruit was surrounded by purple light and shrouded in mist, which was equally astonishing. Once consumed, it was enough to allow mortals with blocked meridians to instantly master the laws of water and fire and step into the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm.

Surrounded by ancient trees and sacred herbs, a half-foot-long vine takes root in the Life Spring. It has nine roots of nine colors: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, and white, shimmering with a beautiful luster.

The surrounding area was filled with flowing wisps of Chaos mist, auspicious colors, surging immortal Immortal Qi, and bursting forth with nine-colored rays of light. Boundless Life essence flowed, transforming this place into a pure land!

This spring is a tributary of Su Yu's Life Spring, formed by the fusion of the Chaos Realm Divine Spring. The true source of the Life Spring is in the boundless sea.

In the center of the valley, a small silver tree stands gracefully, swaying with the light of the Great Dao, with countless stars hanging above it, exuding a vast and ancient aura.

A slightly plump golden dragon lay on World Tree sapling, peacefully sleeping with a silver-veined leaf in its arms, a piece of purple jade in its mouth, with glistening sap occasionally dripping from the corner of its mouth.

At this time, a pale-faced woman, her hands and feet bound by black gold chains, would come and use her remaining magic to collect the medicinal liquid.

She looked frail, with bloodstains on her wrists and ankles, and her icy blue eyes were incredibly dim, like a puppet who had lost all hope.

This Merfolk Tribe princess, who was over a thousand years old, had been pampered since childhood and had a smooth path of cultivation. She reached the level of Dao-Slaying King in three hundred years. After receiving a gift from her Merfolk Tribe ancestors, she broke through realms one after another in just eight hundred years and became Great Saint.

Moreover, she received the protection of the Dustless Sea Spirit, turning the Southern Sea into a forbidden zone, overlooking the Ziwei Star Domain, where no one dared to provoke her.

Now fallen from Nine Heavens and reduced to a servant of others, the bitterness she experiences is something only she can truly understand.

If it weren't for the sake of her Merfolk Tribe, she would have already committed suicide. She would rather die than endure such humiliation. She wondered when these days would end, and how her people were doing...

On the Mount Buzhou, nine silver divine spears pinned down a phantom pale golden shadow. This was a sealing array set up by Tuoyu Yuansheng and Star Lord Lucun using imperial artifacts, far beyond what Dustless Sea Spirit could break free from.

On the other side of Tianshan Mountain, a giant golden dragon suffered the same fate. Its Five Great Secret Realms were sealed, its four claws were pinned to the mountainside, rendering it unable to move an inch, and a divine talisman sealed its brow, making even breathing freely a luxury.

After this ancient Great Saint was captured, Yu Zi pleaded with Su Yu for mercy, hoping he would grant her a reprieve and that she could persuade her ancestor to surrender.

However, this golden dragon was proud and aloof, preferring to endure the pain of its soul being penetrated rather than submit to serve Su Yu. Yu Zi tried to persuade it many times, but to no avail, and could only send some spiritual spring water from time to time.

Sometimes the golden dragon would try to tempt her into releasing Yu Zi from her restraints, but she received no response. On the contrary, Yu Zi was convinced that her husband could attain the Dao and become emperor, which silenced the golden dragon, and his originally firm will began to slowly waver...

In a mountain range, a blue-haired Lan Qi sat cross-legged under a golden tree, her face radiating maternal glow, explaining the " Qilin Scripture " to Qi Ming.

Faced with Qi Ming, who had taken the form of the Kirin Immortal Medicine Elixir, the female Ancestor King of the Fire Qilin Cave was very gentle and showed no sign of resistance.

After Qi Ming appeared, she also saw through Su Yu's lie. Because the aura on Qilin Seed was exactly the same as Qi Ming's, it was impossible to hide, and the truth automatically surfaced.

The other party was utterly shameless, deceiving her with such despicable means, and then becoming the mastermind behind it all, causing her to endure mental torment and self-blame. They were truly despicable.

However, since things had come to this point, there was no other way. In addition, Su Yu was gentle in nature and gave her many divine items.

Under the combined pressure of physical and mental attacks, Lan Qi finally compromised, suppressing her resentment and anger, accepting everything that had happened, and becoming a female teacher to continue to shine for the Qilin clan!

In the Dark Nether Realm, Su Yu lazily got up, escaping from the wonderful realm he had been in for several days.

The palace maid in green robes moved gracefully, her delicate hands moving gently and her attitude very tender. Her slender fingers were slightly cool as she helped him put on his clothes.

On the golden bed, You Lian, draped in a silver veil, was refining the essence of true yang. Her body was like divine glass, flowing with both death and life, yin and yang intertwined, making her appear very sacred, without the slightest trace of deathly aura, but rather like a goddess.

The true yang of the Chaos Body is extremely precious to the Yin God. If one can use extreme yin to nurture true yang and merge life and death with the Dao, one can break free from the limitations of death energy, become no different from ordinary people, and be unafraid of ordinary thunder and fire.

True Yin God are comparable to the Great Saint, and only a few extremely Yang and powerful entities, such as the Taiyang Essence Fire, can restrain them. You Lian is currently moving in that direction.

In a sense, she was a person of great fortune, whose primordial spirit was conceived from the corpse of a Great Saint saintess. From the moment she was born, she was Yin God with extraordinary characteristics.

Generally speaking, Yin God are born in the mausoleums of Great Emperor. In the Starry Sky Ancient Road, the tomb of the Demon Emperor Xue Yueqing has produced several Yin God at the Great Saint Realm. They are powerful enough to fight against the Human Race Ancient Road.

However, the Western Emperor's Tomb was permeated with the deathly aura of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body, its ominous appearance corrupting these Yin God, controlling their souls, and turning them into death puppets.

Afterwards, Su Yu descended and used his immortal Immortal Qi. He then sacrificed himself to cultivate with her, using his true yang to help her achieve enlightenment and paving the way for her to become Great Saint Sage!

The ways of fate are truly lamentable!

After cultivating together in the Dark Nether Realm for many days, Su Yu returned to the Human Realm, stepping on Immortal Qi.

Due to the loss of his primordial essence, he summoned a female Saint King, merged with the Dao, and began his long journey of cultivation...

This was his daily life: working day and night, making the most of every available moment to diligently cultivate the Dao, refining his magical power with profound techniques hundreds of times until he could make no further progress and the water overflowed from the fullness of his body!

High above the Nine Heavens, dozens of Primordial Ancestral King resided in the Immortal Platform, using themselves as furnaces to nurture the nascent laws.

Beneath the Jiuyou, nearly a thousand spirits from Jade Lake silently cultivate the Laws of Death, perfecting the Dark Nether Realm!

In the Human Realm, thousands of patriarchal daughters of the Immortal of the Foreign Realm divine dynasties reside in floating palaces. They have adapted to life here. Compared to the Big Dipper, the Life essence here is surging, various laws are manifested, and the Great Dao is easy to comprehend.

Dozens of princesses from the Four Extremes Secret Realm broke through their cultivation levels and entered the Dragon Transformation stage within a few days of arriving here. These phenomena stimulated the other princesses.

With the faint guidance of their dreams, these princesses of the divine dynasty forgot where they were and began to cultivate diligently, hoping to reach a higher realm.

Looking at the thriving scene within his body, Su Yu remained calm, somewhat self-assured, and very composed.

With a flick of his finger, he placed the jade stone inside Mount Buzhou, where it was placed alongside three immortal trees and bathed in the essence of heaven and earth.

Su Yu hasn't figured out how to use this Saint Spirit yet!

Killing it directly for its resources would be too wasteful; but if it's used for possession...

To master such a powerful body, one's primordial spirit level must be at least at the Saint Realm; otherwise, the soul cannot match the physical body.

Such candidates are few and far between, and they must be Su Yu's confidants; apart from Yang Yi, there is no one else.

Actually, Yang Yi isn't even suitable. Her cultivation level is still insufficient, only at the Saint Fifth Heaven. If she were to take over this Saint Spirit, she could at most unleash the divine power of Saint King. Her divine soul is too fragile, which would severely affect her strength...

"It would have suited Divine Silkworm Princess very well, but unfortunately, she has already left..." Su Yu's expression was complicated as he thought of that beautiful figure in his heart again, one he could not forget.

After he descended into this world, the first goddess he saw was the illusory image of the Ruthless Great Emperor, but she was a formidable opponent, so Su Yu didn't dwell on it.

When he later encountered Lin Jia, Liu Yiyi, and others, these women were just ordinary people with little presence, and they didn't catch his eye.

It wasn't until the appearance of the Divine Silkworm Princess that his heart fluttered and he couldn't calm down; his youthful infatuation was hard to quell.

A young man who had just started building a road encountered a beautiful Saint King; it was a fantastical story.

Unfortunately, the princess was already engaged and deeply in love with the monkey from the Western Desert. Even if he gave everything, it would be useless. Limited by his cultivation level, he could not gain her attention!

An encounter that ended without fruition was nothing more than the wishful thinking of an overconfident minor cultivator; it led nowhere...

Because of certain feelings, Su Yu would not force Divine Silkworm Princess, even if he could forcibly obtain her, he would not do so!

This is different from Yang Yi's situation. Zhang Lin has already passed away. The dead can never compete with the living. Su Yu had no qualms about poaching her; he did it for their own good, and the outcome proved him right.

Now, Zhang Lin's descendant Fifth Master Zhang, has embarked on the path of spiritual cultivation, and his old tree has blossomed again. In recent years, he has married and had children, and is living a very good life.

Yang Yi, needless to say, was saved by Su Yu with a sacred medicine, and then by various immortal treasures and ancient scriptures, she rapidly advanced from the Great Accomplishment King to the middle stage of the Saint.

But Divine Silkworm Princess is different; that monkey is alive and well. According to the original story, it could live for over two thousand years—such a long time...

"Why do I feel so resentful? She left without saying goodbye. I have a clear conscience, and taking revenge shouldn't be a problem. But why can't I bring myself to do it..." Su Yu's Light and Darkness, and he seemed lost and forlorn.

This was the only setback he encountered after transmigrating; everything else went smoothly, and even the attack from the Forbidden Zone Heir couldn't sway him!

"I hate monkeys!" Su Yu sighed softly, a cold glint in his eyes.

The primordial spirit that was cultivating with a Silver Phoenix Maiden also stopped its movements.
