Finally, with a wave of his sleeve, he took away this ancient palace with its secret patterns, decisively leaving nothing for anyone else.

Each subsequent level of the ancient temple enshrines a stone figure, each containing a vast amount of Life essence...

The Chaotic Ancient Era Chariot raced on, its rider enveloped in Chaos light, his limbs and bones flowing with essence, like a god of light. A terrifying blood aura was hidden within him, flowing like roaring Big Dragon that could shatter heaven and earth.

With her flowing black hair and fluttering robes, Su Yu entered the eleventh level of the world.

This layer is completely different from the previous ones; it is boundless, vast, and expansive.

This is a pure land created by the Great Saint, where the spatial power is incredibly stable and stretches as far as the eye can see.

In the darkness, pairs of eyes were gleaming—the eyes of enormous, wild beasts!

The eleventh level is a small world within a temple. It contains ancient trees, mountains, and grass, but there is no sunlight. It's a mystery how they grow.

These Desolate Antiquity ferocious beasts were enormous, covered in scales resembling Qilin or divine snipers, with bizarre and extremely ferocious appearances.

They are descendants of the guardian beasts of the temple. This small world of the temple is vast and boundless. Although there is no sunlight, there is a suitable environment for them to live in, which has allowed these beast bells to continue.

"Roar..."

The dozens of wild beasts closest to the boundary gate stared straight at Su Yu, roared, and rushed over with a foul stench.

Sixteen ancient beasts of the Immortal Two and three beast kings of the Severing the Dao ran together, creating the momentum of a thousand troops and horses, and a sense of oppression from an endless beast tide.

"Your primordial spirit is unwell, no wonder you didn't run away when you saw me!" Su Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, then his gaze gradually sharpened, his two eyes turning into runes, flowing with dazzling light.

"Clang!"

Two clear, sharp sword cries rang out, soaring into the sky, flowing with terrifying primordial spirit light, transforming into boundless sword rain that descended upon this ancient realm...

"Roar..."

In an instant, the ferocious beasts roared, their mountain-like bodies collapsed, and the souls within the Immortal Platform were suppressed and killed.

Not only here, but also from the distant, dense forests came the roars of beasts, including beast kings from the Immortal Three, and even demonic beasts that were close to the Saint Realm.

The dazzling rain of swords fell, appearing beautiful yet containing terrifying spiritual power, like a storm sweeping across the land.

In the darkness, ancient beasts fell one after another, their physical bodies unharmed, but their inner spirits shattered, unable to withstand the soul impact of the Chaos Saint...

Half an hour later, a cluster of purple flames rose, shrouded in Chaos energy, obliterating everything!

Amidst the blazing flames, Su Yu's aura surged, and the black sun behind him condensed a crimson hue, constantly flowing—a massive amount of essence blood.

Behind him, a forest filled with smoke and fire, and a shattered stone statue!

With the addition of the previous stone statues, Su Yu's accumulated divine power had reached a critical point.

With just a little comprehension, he will be able to begin breaking through his current realm and advance towards the Saint Fifth Heaven...

The thirteenth floor of the palace was filled with light, exuding a sacred and peaceful atmosphere, as if one had entered a world of light.

Ahead stood a colossal stone statue, hundreds of feet tall, radiating a soft light. Dozens of runes were inscribed on it, extremely intricate, composed of hundreds and thousands of interconnected lines, each resonating with the Dao, mysterious and unfathomable.

Su Yu stared at it for a moment, then shook his head, somewhat disappointed.

This is not a replica of a stone golem created by Saint Spirit spirit, nor does it possess any Life essence. Rather, it is a beast-taming Beast God, whose runes can control strange beasts.

Su Yu reached out and grabbed something, and an object flew out of the stone statue's mouth. Auspicious light burst forth, and various colorful clouds scattered down, shimmering with light and radiance, blooming with Divine Radiance.

This is a treasure chest, about one foot square, made entirely of Five-Colored Iron Essence, a divine material of the same rank as Great Luo Silver Essence.

The tin box was old, with signs of insect bites and numerous holes.

Freed from the constraints of the statue, fine golden threads emanated from the treasure box, creating a dazzling effect.

Upon closer inspection, these golden threads are actually long, thin worms, shaped like dragons, but without horns. Each one is like a magic lamp, dazzling and emitting a clanging sound, the sound of light colliding, like the vibration of metal.

This insect is terrifying; it can even chew through materials of Saint quality. Even the Five-Colored Iron Essence, comparable to the Nine Heavens Divine Jade, was bitten with many holes.

Su Yu's hands were covered with a layer of purple-gold frost, which instantly became incredibly tough. The God-Slaying Insect seemed to have bitten into thin air and had no choice but to fly away to other places.

"I wonder if I can raise a Quasi-Emperor!"

Su Yu smiled faintly, waved his sleeve, leaving some insect eggs behind, and then drew out a wisp of imperial energy from the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, transforming it into a black-gold cage, which trapped all the revived God-Slaying Insect inside.

Then, he swiftly moved his hands, creating killing runes that were then injected into the black gold prison, causing the revived God-Slaying Insect to go berserk and begin killing each other.

This is a very extravagant act, because it's possible to lose all the insect species and still not be able to raise a single insect king!

The eggs of the God-Slaying Insect are extremely valuable and can fetch astronomical prices!

If combined with those beast-controlling runes, its value is even more astonishing, surpassing even an equivalent amount of Nine Heavens Divine Jade.

Su Yu didn't have that much time to cultivate the God-Slaying Insect. For him, if the Insect King was still worth cultivating, the ordinary ones would at most reach the Great Accomplishment King, which wasn't very useful.

The treasure box contained over 100,000 God-Slaying Insect, densely packed like a golden tide. After falling into the black-gold cage, they began to devour each other. The scene was bloody, a survival of the fittest, with only the strongest surviving to the end.

However, even if an Insect King is born, it cannot escape Su Yu's soul enslavement!

These insects are naturally bloodthirsty and have a cold personality. If it is a pure-blooded insect king, ordinary beast-taming runes are useless. Only conversion is safe!

The stone statues on the next few floors are incredibly tall, including war puppets, statues of Divine General from the Feathered Divine Dynasty, and sculptures recording great achievements.

Su Yu swept through each layer, searching very carefully, and found quite a few good things.

The Great Luo Silver Essence, the Silver Moon Divine Jade, the Nine Heavens Divine Jade, stone tablets inscribed with the Saint King, and even Ancient Saint weapons.

As for the items below the Saint Realm, they are countless!

This is a tedious form of spiritual practice.

Later, Su Yu even summoned the Primordial Ancestral King and ordered them to search for the palaces outside the ancient temple.

This site has a total of thirty-six levels. The main gate of the ancestral temple connects to these Sage Small World, while the other small gates connect to ancient halls and numerous small Grotto-Heaven.

Su Yu created an avatar, which took a set of Saint Weapon and walked back along the road to block the ancestral temple gate, while he himself pushed his way forward.

The evil spirits within his body roamed freely, a hundred ghosts roaming at night, making this ruin even more sinister, like entering the Yanluo Hall's Palace in the Underworld...

"Boom!"

The Ancient Emperor Chariot smashed open the stone door leading to the thirty-first floor.

This world was shrouded in swirling black mist, as if connected to the netherworld, exuding an eerie aura.

Ahead, all was dark, yet the sound of rain could be heard, like a real, vast world, with blurry figures moving about in the night rain.

"Bang!"

The rain poured down, thunder roared, and several streaks of blood-red lightning flashed across the night sky, illuminating everything within.

In the night rain illuminated by crimson lightning, the roads were muddy, and squads of soldiers in ancient armor, wielding black iron halberds and spears, patrolled the surrounding area.

When lightning flashed and its light shone on the armor and weapons, the distinctive patterns on the cold battle garments were even faintly visible.

Few people can wear this kind of armor; only those who have made great contributions can receive such a reward—a symbol of honor, status, and strength. These heavenly soldiers are definitely born for war.

Heavenly Soldier Armor: This is a secret artifact from the beginning of the Ancient Heavenly Court. As a remnant of the Ancient Heavenly Court, the Feathered Divine Dynasty unified heaven and earth at its peak and wanted to establish an Immortal of the Foreign Realm Divine Court.

With the peerless Holy Lord as their army and the Severing the Dao as their subordinates, these Yin soldiers are enough to rival the Ancient Saint, and their numbers are terrifying, truly terrifying!

Su Yu was not afraid at all. He jumped out of the chariot, and with a flick of his wrist, a dazzling Killing Sword appeared.

In an instant, three teams of celestial soldiers flew in. Not one of them uttered a word. The black sword and black halberd possessed a demonic quality, swirling with eerie light and carrying an aura of the Immortal of the Foreign Realm.

"One sword can sweep away the world!"

Su Yu gave a light shout, and with a horizontal sword strike, the sword light roared through the Sun-Moon, causing the heavens and earth to lose their color, sweeping away the ages. The terrifying law of slaughter was revealed, cutting through all things, and the aura of creation and destruction spread out, terrifying beyond measure!

Wherever the sword light went, all the ancient celestial soldiers of this world were shattered into fragments of bones in the catastrophe. The silver sword light crisscrossed, like an endless funeral song, dancing in the sky.

Crimson lightning flashed and danced, while the rain poured down harder and harder.

Before these heavenly soldiers could even form a battle formation, they all perished, becoming shattered bones amidst the sword light!

Su Yu's gaze swept across the heavens and earth, then his eyes narrowed, and his sword flashed once more!

It was a cemetery, most of the tombstones had fallen over, and the rain was pouring down. Many ancient graves had cracked open, and skeletons were crawling out, then quickly growing flesh and blood.

It was a very eerie scene: old graves were cracked open, and snow-white, even decaying, skeletal hands reached out and slowly crawled up.

Even the rotten bone fragments were forming a skeleton, rapidly growing flesh and blood. Then, the Heavenly Soldier Armor, which had long since turned to dust in the grave, reversed time, clanging and resounding, transforming into battle armor that covered their bodies.

The heavenly soldiers were pale and expressionless, their bodies covered by armor. They then stepped out step by step, weapons in hand, forming a square formation, and advanced forward.

The rain poured down, and streaks of blood-red lightning flashed across the night sky, occasionally illuminating the dark cemetery. Everything here was chilling and utterly perplexing.

This is the Heavenly Soldier Cemetery, a vast expanse of ancient tombs, accumulated over countless millennia.

"Clang!"

The sword rang out with a resounding clang, carrying a power that made even gods and demons tremble, erasing the graveyard and leaving behind Eternal silence!

These celestial soldiers and generals only have one chance to be resurrected, and their resurrection relies on the Yuhua Power of this world.

To Yuhua others is to achieve one's own success.

If many people rush into this world and obtain the life souls of the living, these ghost soldiers can be resurrected!

The cycle of life and death, the living die, the dead live—this is an alternative balance!

Having figured all this out, Su Yu's eyes deepened. Then, he swung his Killing Sword, unleashing strands of Flying Immortal Power that pierced through Eternal, beautiful to the extreme.

"Boom!"

The Void collapsed, and ancient runes appeared in the sky. From a distance, they looked like an ancient map, engraved with the Dao patterns of life and death. It was these runes that constituted this Yin Spirit Array!

Su Yu reached out and grabbed, causing the great formation to tremble violently, attempting to revive. However, all the heavenly soldiers and generals had vanished, and without the blood sacrifice of living people, this Yin formation was powerless against the invaders.

After removing the ancient array, Su Yu placed it into the Dark Nether Realm within his inner world.

These array symbols were likely crafted by a Quasi-Emperor was well-versed in the Dao of Life and Death. Although they have been eroded by time, the Dao patterns still remain, making them a Life Spring for the undead of Jade Lake.

Having done all this, Su Yu used the Time Escape to reach the realm of time, moving at extreme speed, and entered the thirty-second level of the small world.

This is a gloomy area; the rain has stopped, the land is dry, but it is even more dangerous.

There are no heavenly soldiers here. The weakest are all subordinate generals at the Severing the Dao level, and there are even a few true heavenly generals who are close to the Saint Realm!

Following the law, Su Yu once again used the sword technique of the Longevity Heavenly Venerable to break through the entire area, annihilating all the celestial generals in this world and obtaining an even more profound Dao Diagram of Life and Death!

At the passageway to the 33rd level of the temple's miniature world, there is a huge stone tablet with several ancient characters engraved on it: Thirty-Three Layers of Heaven.

"Referring to the Emperor Zun...?" Su Yu smiled faintly, not caring.

The relationship between the Feathered Divine Dynasty and the direct line of the Ancient Heavenly Court is very delicate; they appear to be united but are actually at odds.
