Her breathing weakened slightly, and she said gently, "Is that enough?"
Seeing Divine Silkworm Princess's somewhat pale face, Su Yu felt a pang of guilt, yet he couldn't refuse.
He accepted the divine essence, which represented the power of three ultimate paths. The Saint Lihuo Divine Furnace could only be activated by a sage; it was a life-saving artifact.
The other person can't be by your side every single moment.
Divine Silkworm Princess smiled as she looked at the expression on Su Yu's face. She knew what Su Yu was thinking, but it was precisely because she knew that she felt more at ease.
The story of an ancient Imperial Clan descendant who, through his own efforts, retrieves his Ancestral Artifact after being exiled is quite interesting...
Su Yu took out the jade bottle again, and this time Divine Silkworm Princess did not refuse. The two strolled among the clouds.
"Your Chaos Origin is nearing completion. I've never seen such a powerful origin before. Even the Holy Emperor's Son is far inferior to you. Is this the true essence of the Indestructible Heavenly Art?"
Su Yu nodded slightly and said, " The Indestructible Heavenly Art Master underwent a transformation, devouring all the kings to achieve the Chaos Body. Does the princess understand the Chaos Body?"
Divine Silkworm Princess shook her head. She had only cultivated for a few hundred years during the reign of the Fighting Saint Emperor, and the true strength of the Divine Silkworm Territory had not yet been revealed in that Lifetime. She was unaware of many ancient secrets.
" The Chaos Body, one of the strongest physiques in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, appeared in the Mythological Era. That Chaos Body severely injured one of the Nine Heavenly Venerable before it had fully matured. And the owner of the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar eventually transformed into a Chaos Body as well." Su Yu revealed a great secret.
Divine Silkworm Princess was very surprised, and it took her a long time to calm down. Suddenly, she mentioned the seven forbidden zones of the Burial Emperor Star, staring intently into Su Yu's eyes, wanting to know if he knew anything about what was involved.
She had been following clues when she was drawn to the Central Plains Ancestral Temple.
This matter troubled her deeply, because in the Primordial Era, there were also important figures from Ancient Emperor Clans who were implicated in similar matters, but they were all tracked to forbidden areas in ancient times, especially the Primordial Ancient Mine.
There may be a connection between the two events.
Su Yu thought for a moment, seemingly considering his words, before finally saying, "In a forbidden area of Big Dipper, one of the Nine Heavenly Venerable lies in seclusion."
Upon hearing this, Divine Silkworm Princess's expression changed drastically, and she trembled slightly; this was absolutely the most terrifying thing.
The Nine Secrets were renowned imperial divine arts in the Primordial Era. The prestige of the Nine Heavenly Venerable Venerables shrouded the entire Primordial Era, and one of Heavenly Venerable even still exists, lying dormant in the Big Dipper.
"Impossible. Divine Source cannot seal away Ancient Emperor of the Ultimate Path. No Ancient Emperor can survive millions of years. Time is the end of everything."
Divine Silkworm Princess instinctively wanted to refute, as she knew all too well the effects of the Divine Source Liquid; it was utterly incapable of sealing the Ancient Emperor Ancient Emperor, otherwise he could have sealed himself and awaited the Road to Immortality.
Su Yu said quietly, " The Divine Source indeed cannot seal the Ancient Emperor, but what if the Ancient Emperor were to sever himself and fall from his Dao Fruit?"
"Sever myself!"
Divine Silkworm Princess fell silent for a moment, muttering those four words with a complex expression. Then, as if remembering something else, she asked nervously, "So, does that mean Ancient Supreme beings are lurking in these forbidden zones of the Big Dipper?"
Chapter 104 Is the God Emperor Here?
Su Yu did not answer Divine Silkworm Princess's question. Instead, he looked down at the mountains and rivers below the clouds. Standing on the cloud peak, he looked down at the world. The mountains, rivers and fields were all in one view, which made him feel refreshed and happy.
The once-powerful Dao Fire Spirit may have stood on these clouds, overlooking the heavens and the earth.
The ages have passed, but the story continues.
Divine Silkworm Princess was still in shock and had not yet come to her senses. Her mind was in chaos, and she subconsciously connected many pieces of information, linking together seemingly unrelated causes and effects.
A thought struck her, and she raised her head slightly, her gaze turning solemnly towards the Eastern Wasteland.
If what Su Yu said about the seven Life Forbidden Zone in the Eastern Wasteland is true, then it is truly the most terrifying thing in the world...
Furthermore, is the Central Plains Ancestral Temple dedicated to the ancestral emperor? Or perhaps...?
"The Ancestral Emperor gave birth to Divine Thought..." The thought of this possibility made Divine Silkworm Princess even more silent. Even she could not enter that place. If it was indeed Divine Thought, the earth might be stained with blood in the future.
Seeing that Divine Silkworm Princess was distracted, Su Yu couldn't help but remind her.
Your Highness!
"What's wrong."
Divine Silkworm Princess came to her senses, her purple hair swaying slightly, dancing in the wind, revealing her complete fairy face. Her beautiful starry eyes looked at Su Yu, a small golden bell hanging on her dress, with colorful divine light cascading down, making her incomparably beautiful.
She suddenly looked at Su Yu. This descendant of an ancient Imperial Clan knew so many great secrets; perhaps she could ask him about the God Emperor.
Suddenly, the noblewoman looked intently at Su Yu, took two steps forward, and grasped Su Yu sleeve with her two delicate hands. Her face trembled slightly as she asked, " Su Yu, tell me, is His God Emperor in the forbidden zone? Is he still alive?"
Looking at the beautiful and charming Divine Silkworm Princess, feeling the touch of the girl's skin, Su Yu couldn't help but feel a ripple in his heart. He gazed at the Divine Silkworm Princess without saying a word.
Divine Silkworm Princess noticed the hesitation in Su Yu's eyes. She lowered her eyebrows, bit her lip, and said, "I'm begging you, this matter is of utmost importance, I must know."
Su Yu turned his head away, avoiding looking at the approaching celestial face, and said softly, " The God Emperor neither committed suicide nor entered the forbidden zone."
"Is it at the Central Plains Ancestral Temple?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yu frowned slightly, and after a moment realized that the girl in front of him might have been to the Yuhua Divine Temple, where the Silkworm Emperor's Nine-Layer Coffin lay dormant.
He shook his head, indicating his denial, and was not prepared to reveal the truth about the Divine Silkworm Ancient Emperor.
Divine Silkworm Princess fell silent, her hands collapsing limply. It truly was the Divine Thought. The ancestral emperor had departed, but the evil thoughts remained, lingering until now.
She couldn't help but feel a lingering fear; if she had actually gone in, something unbearable might have happened...
Seeing Divine Silkworm Princess's sorrowful appearance, Su Yu was inexplicably moved, but he remained silent. The God Emperor had been lying in a coma all the way to the Sacred Ruins, and he did not want to see Divine Silkworm Ridge disturb the other party's slumber.
"If the princess has nothing else to do, please stay with me for the time being."
Divine Silkworm Princess nodded slightly and followed behind Su Yu. As the two strolled, they were like two Eternal beams of celestial light, traversing thousands of miles.
"In your condition, just drink from the Divine Spring."
"A few days of rest will do the trick; there's no need for the Divine Spring." Divine Silkworm Princess shook her head, a smile appearing on her beautiful face, disagreeing with Su Yu's statement.
Seeing her insistence, Su Yu said no more. This place was not far from the Ji Family's stronghold, so he could simply take the Divine Silkworm Princess back to the Southern Region.
The advantage of maintaining good relations with the Desolate Antiquity Ji Family is that he can use the Domain Gate at will, and according to the report of the Eighth Ancestor of the Ji Family, his status in the Ji Family has greatly increased after he offered up the Desolate Ancient Divine Spring.
As his friend, Su Yu's status naturally rose significantly.
Divine Silkworm Princess looked at Su Yu's not-so-tall figure and smiled silently.
It feels pretty good to be around this younger colleague.
Her thoughts drifted back to the moment she first awoke.
In fact, she had already regained consciousness and seen Su Yu when Su Yu refined the Sacred Fruit into her body, but she did not wake up and pretended to continue sleeping.
The Divine Silkworm Clan's primordial spirit was powerful, and Su Yu at the time was completely unable to resist its gaze. The feeling was strange; after sleeping for countless years, she was actually saved by a Human Clan. She thought the other party was naive and dared to save such a dangerous being.
After all, even a cultivator at the Four Extremes, possessing a complete Ancient Emperor Weapon, is no match for Saint. If it were a ruthless Ancestor King, it would be like handing the Ancient Emperor Weapon to his doorstep.
However, at that moment, she sensed a faint killing intent, not from the Devouring Heaven Demon Lid, but from Su Yu, or more precisely, the faint Quasi-Emperor aura flowing around Su Yu.
Divine Silkworm Princess was not afraid of half an Ancient Emperor Weapon, but she was terrified by the Quasi-Emperor aura emanating from it.
With her discerning eye, she could naturally see the difference between the two. The Devouring Heaven Demon Lid was merely a slightly revived and fallen Extreme Dao aura, utterly incapable of harming her after her revival. However, the faint Quasi-Emperor aura contained terrifying killing intent, indicating it was definitely not Quasi-Emperor weapon.
It's highly likely to be Quasi-Emperor forbidden artifact... How could a cultivator who could obtain half an Ancient Emperor Weapon not have a backup plan?
Just when she thought she was about to become his slave and was ready to perish together with him, Su Yu made a deal with her, asking her to help him retrieve the Ancestral Artifact.
Su Yu could accomplish this with her Quasi-Emperor forbidden artifact; it was quite simple for her.
However, just when she thought the other party was an old monster who had been rebuilt, Su Yu handed her half of an Ancient Emperor Weapon without any suspicion, and also took out two imperial Dao Scripture.
Everything she experienced after her resurrection was incredibly strange! Yet, she repeatedly encountered fortuitous opportunities.
The Emperor Dao Divine Pattern of the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, the Indestructible Heavenly Art and the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, the Undying Immortal Phoenix Scripture, the Divine Spring Sacred Fruit... these opportunities are terrifying. Such a wealth is something even the Divine Silkworm Territory cannot produce.
"This experience is almost like that of a protagonist in a mortal comic book; after the recovery, everything started to go in a positive direction."
Divine Silkworm Princess thought of Su Yu's timid and hesitant manner earlier and found it somewhat amusing.
The clouds rolled and the sunlight spilled over them, making the place incredibly dreamlike. Seven-colored halos appeared, and as she looked at Su Yu's golden hair, her heart softened, and she gazed gently ahead.
Su Yu also sensed something. He assumed that the Divine Silkworm Princess wanted to take him across the Void, so he explained, "This place is very close to the Ji Family's Domain Gate. We can directly take the Domain Gate to the Eastern Wasteland."
The two soon arrived at the Ji Family's stronghold. Before landing, Su Yu prompted, "Princess, change your appearance."
Then she transformed herself into a young Daoist priest, Divine Silkworm Princess also became an old Daoist priest with a refined and otherworldly air.
Su Yu glanced at her, his lips twitching. He wanted to appear even older, but his disguise was already set, so this was the only option.
Chapter 105 Heavenbreak Mountains
Su Yu stepped forward to clear the way. The Dragon Transformation Elder of the Ji Family looked at this Daoist Cao with some doubt. This master had returned after leaving.
Elder Cao, what's going on?
Su Yu waved his sleeve, taking out a large pouch of energy. It shimmered with light, its rich Life essence filling the entire courtyard, radiating immortal light. He said gently, "I need to travel to the Central Region of the Eastern Wasteland, sir."
The Ji Family elder collected a portion of the source energy from the ground, then said solemnly, "I wouldn't dare! Master is a first-class guest elder; using the Domain Gate only requires half the cost."
Su Yu retrieved the excess source energy, smiled back at the enthusiastic Ji Family elder, and led Divine Silkworm Princess onto the altar. The Ji Family elder ignored this, as a slight violation of the rules was nothing to such an important figure.
Pieces of primordial energy transformed into the essence of heaven and earth, merging into the altar. The Void runes on the altar flickered, quickly transforming into a spatial portal, through which Su Yu led Divine Silkworm Princess inside.
After the two left, the Dragon Transformation Elder of the Ji Family looked at the piece of purple jade, about the length of a finger, in his hand and couldn't help but sigh, "Master Cao Yusheng is indeed very generous."
After being teleported through the Domain Gate, the two arrived in the Central Region of the Eastern Wasteland.
The Central Region, the birthplace of the Eastern Wasteland civilization, contains many mysterious relics and numerous prehistoric ruins, the origins of which are impossible to trace.
Scattered across this vast Great Wilderness are many ancient cities, not connected, yet they radiate the brilliant flame of civilization, which has endured since ancient times.
However, this region lacks any powerful factions and is not well-known in the original work.
The Heavenbreak Mountains are located in a remote and sparsely populated area in the Central Region, a vast and boundless Great Wilderness stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles.
The two emerged from the Ji Family's stronghold. Divine Silkworm Princess surveyed the Great Wilderness, her voice weak as she said, "Was that Domain Gate from earlier from the Ji Family? Among the major powers, only they are skilled in the laws of the Void."
Su Yu looked at the old Daoist priest with white hair and beard and said helplessly, "Change back."
Divine Silkworm Princess chuckled, moved closer to Su Yu, and dispelled her transformation spell, reverting to her beautiful and charming self. She lazily surveyed her surroundings and smiled gently, "You think the opportunity to break through to the Great Saint realm lies here?"
Su Yu did not answer. He silently gazed at the familiar mountain range. In order to avoid the extreme forces, his lineage migrated to the Central Region of the Eastern Wasteland. In a sense, this was his "hometown," and he was very familiar with this place.
He took out a map of the Central Region, marked the Heavenbreak Mountains, and then handed it to Divine Silkworm Princess.
Divine Silkworm Princess took the map, glanced at it briefly, and with a flick of her jade finger, broke through the Void and stepped inside. With her strength, she could cross to the Heavenbreak Mountains in less than an hour.
The Heavenbreak Mountains is a perilous place in the Central Region of the Eastern Wasteland, not a place that ordinary people can enter. It cuts across the sky, with fierce winds howling and divine winds of the Great Dao blowing. Ordinary people who go up there will be reduced to ashes.
