Fantasy: Sign-in From The Womb, Born As A Major Antagonist

"Open the jade box first!"

Ji Xiu targeted the box and directly unlocked its latch. With great anticipation, he looked inside the box and found two items.

A rusty key!

A tattered map!

"A key?"

"A map?"

Ji Xiu raised an eyebrow, picked up the map, and studied it carefully. In the end, he shook his head. He couldn't figure out where the map was indicating.

However, he did come to a conclusion. This map seemed to depict a corner of a broken world, with immortal patterns engraved on it. So, there must be an immortal treasure hidden in this broken world.

As for the key, it was likely the key to unlocking this immortal treasure.

"Never mind!"

"Regardless of what it is, since it is listed as an inheritance of the Demon Ancestor, it must be a good thing!"

Ji Xiu quickly put away the key and map, then turned his attention to the last sheepskin scroll on the lotus platform. He picked up the sheepskin scroll and felt a chilling sensation seeping into his body through his palm.

It was then that he realized the scroll was not wrapped in sheepskin, but human skin!

Unwrapping the human skin, Ji Xiu spread out the scroll. At that moment, his expression froze as he looked at the demonic patterns on the scroll. He took a deep breath and exclaimed in astonishment,

"Wow!"

"This is the most important chapter of the Demon Ancestor's Emperor Scripture - the Enlightenment Chapter!"

After saying that, he suddenly saw a spell engraved in ancient demonic language within the Enlightenment Chapter of the Demon Ancestor's Emperor Scripture.

Hoo!

Ji Xiu took a deep breath, activated the Immortal Devouring Demonic Technique, and recited the spell.

Boom!!!

As the incomprehensible incantations left his mouth, the dark lake beneath Ji Xiu's feet trembled violently. Then, a strange scene unfolded.

The black lake bubbled, the ancient enlightenment tree moved without wind, golden enlightenment leaves fell, and golden smoke and rain filled the sky. In an instant, the dark aura of the lake dissipated, becoming crystal clear, and a hint of floral fragrance entered Ji Xiu's nostrils.

"This is... the Enlightenment Lake of the Legendary Level!"

Ji Xiu was shocked.

In the Village of Fragrant Rice, he had seen the Fountain of Life!

And now, in the inheritance land of the Demon Ancestor, he encountered the Enlightenment Lake!

A drop of the Fountain of Life could heal all wounds and cleanse the soul of cultivators.

A drop of the Enlightenment Lake could completely immerse a person in the Transcendent Enlightenment realm, where heaven and man become one.

Not to mention... there was also a golden Enlightenment Tree here!

"This place is simply the number one Enlightenment land in the Nine Heavens!"

The more Ji Xiu thought about it, the more excited he became. Then, he directly took out the reward he obtained from signing in at the Frozen Peak - the Enlightenment Divine Flower!

"Enlightenment Tree!"

"Enlightenment Lake!"

"Demonic Ancestor's Emperor Scripture - Enlightenment Chapter!"

"Plus the Enlightenment Divine Flower!"

"Four effects combined!"

"I, Ben Shi Zi, refuse to believe that I cannot comprehend my own Emperor Scripture this time!"

His thoughts stopped here.

Ji Xiu acted immediately, holding onto the golden Enlightenment Tree and leaping directly towards the bottom of Enlightenment Lake.

Splash!!!

He jumped into the lake. Ji Xiu directly inserted the Enlightenment Tree into the gravel at the bottom of the lake, then he sat cross-legged under the Enlightenment Tree, opened the Demonic Ancestor's Emperor Scripture, and slowly closed his eyes!

At this moment, an extremely comfortable and tingling sensation swept through his soul!

What he didn't know was that he had entered the Transcendent Enlightenment realm called "Chaos," where heaven and man merge. At this moment, he was using the fastest speed to deduce, explore, and create his own forbidden Emperor Scripture!

Clang!!!

The light of chaos spread throughout Ji Xiu's body, and the mist of chaos enveloped him.

No one knew that at this moment, a blank ancient scroll appeared in front of Ji Xiu, and soon there were several large characters on the scroll.

[First Chapter of the Emperor Scripture: Transcendence!]

..........................

On the peak of the Frozen Summit.

Gu Yao looked at Ji Xiu sitting on the frozen throne, covered in demonic patterns, as if he was in a deep sleep. She smiled, knowing that her son had officially entered the inheritance of the Demonic Ancestor!

"Your Highness!"

"It's good to see you again!"

"Don't worry, this time, Yao'er will protect you!"

"Nowhere else to go!"

Gu Yao looked at Ji Xiu with a misty gaze and whispered to herself. Then she stood in front of the throne, her gaze alertly watching the geniuses of the Southern Domain and Western Continent's two demonic realms.

Now, in her opinion, Shen Cangsheng was already dead, many powerful individuals in the Funeral God Temple were either dead or injured, and San Zang's whereabouts were unknown. The only ones who could pose a threat to Ji Xiu were Luo Xie from the Southern Domain and Jun Wu Hui, the top disciple of the Western Continent.

"Miss Gu Yao, rest assured!"

"I, Luo Xie, won't go that far!"

Luo Xie knew Gu Yao's concerns and couldn't help but smile bitterly as he shook his head. He had his pride, and his pride wouldn't allow him to do such a backstabbing thing, especially since Ji Xiu had helped him before.

"Gu Yao, what do you think I would do?"

"Luo Xie wouldn't do something so despicable. Do you think Jun Wu Hui would?"

"Hmph! What a joke!"

Jun Wu Hui gave Gu Yao a glare and snorted. She wondered how Gu Yao could treat her like that.

"It's good if you don't regret it!"

Gu Yao coldly replied, but despite her words, she still stood in front of the throne without moving.

"This girl!"

Ning Xiyan smiled helplessly. She knew Gu Yao very well. Ji Xiu was Gu Yao's life, and she would naturally protect him with all her might.

"This bad guy is going to become the Demon Lord!"

Mo Qingxian sighed inexplicably. For some reason, she felt unhappy.

"What? Are you jealous?"

Ming Wu playfully asked.

Upon hearing this, Mo Qingxian, like a rabbit whose tail had been stepped on, became flustered. She tightly clenched her jade fist and angrily retorted,

"Jealous?"

"What is this Saintess jealous of?"

"Ming Wu, do you think that this Saintess is jealous of Ji Xiu?"

"Let me tell you the truth, it's impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"He can marry whoever he wants, this Saintess doesn't care! Doesn't care!"

Hehehe!

Ming Wu couldn't help but laugh, covering her mouth. The signs of someone lying are repetition, deliberate emphasis, and wandering eyes. And Mo Qingxian fell for it completely!

"Alright!"

"If you're not jealous, then you're not jealous!"

"It doesn't matter!"

Ning Xiyan smiled and pulled Mo Qingxian to her side.

"There was never any!"

"Hmph! This Saintess doesn't like that bad guy Ji Xiu!"

Mo Qingxian snorted, her face cold and proud, keeping others at a distance.

On the other hand, Xing'er, the Kirin girl, smiled and said,

"I like Ji Xiu!"

Hmm!

Little Fatty nodded heavily and waved her chubby little fist, saying with her mouth full,

"I like the master too!"

After the two little girls finished speaking, they glanced at each other and laughed together.

On the other side, the three siblings of the Han family breathed a sigh of relief. Han Xiao softly announced,

"Second Brother!"

"Younger Sister!"

"This time, we made the right bet!"

Hmm!!

Han Mo and Han Xue nodded excitedly.

As for Huang Luo, he looked at Gu Qiu'er beside him. The long-lost sense of peace and the feeling of relaxation after the pressure of life and death made him feel extremely comfortable. The beautiful woman in front of him made his heart race, as if he had thought of something. His throat rolled, and then he tremblingly reached out and tentatively held Gu Qiu'er's jade hand. At this moment, his heartbeat accelerated to the extreme, afraid that Gu Qiu'er would refuse him, or even give him a sword.

However, the thing he worried about did not happen. Gu Qiu'er did not look at him, nor did she show any displeasure. Instead, she naturally held his hand back. The two stood side by side, holding hands, neither letting go of the other, just like when they were being chased by the Burial God Temple, neither of them gave up on each other, natural and passionate!

On the frozen peak, the atmosphere was peaceful, harmonious.

But in the Snow City and the Demon Emperor's Palace, it was different!

The atmosphere here was very oppressive, both the National Teacher Yan Ji and the Great Realm King of the Four Great Demon Realms felt heavy in their hearts.

Only Lu Yuexi, looking at the scenes on the frozen peak, couldn't help but sigh and say,

"Summer!"

"It's really a season of love!"

"But fortunately, this Emperor is also getting married!"

Dugu Banruo rolled her eyes, thinking that it was already this late, and this woman's thinking was really abnormal, she was still thinking about such things?

What she didn't know was that Lu Yuexi was actually thinking that once she got married, she must figure out what kind of inheritance Ji Xiu had obtained from the Demon Ancestor.

Was it the unique golden Enlightenment Tree of the Nine Heavens?

Or the mysterious jade box? What was inside the jade box?

Or... the Demon Ancestor's Emperor's Scripture - Enlightenment Chapter!

In the past, she had obtained eight chapters of the Demon Ancestor's Emperor's Scripture, including the Forbidden Chapter, but she was missing the Enlightenment Chapter. She was very curious about that Enlightenment Chapter and was determined to obtain it!

As for the Demon Marshal, his gaze was directed towards the peak of the Demon Domain, towards the direction of the North Sea and the Southern Tomb. There, his strongest disciples of the Burial God Temple would become the most loyal protectors of the Heavenly Emperor Mo Lingfeng!

Kill Ji Xiu!

Seize the inheritance!

That would be the path he arranged next!

"Lu Yuexi!"

"You won't be able to get married!"

"This time, your beloved husband is afraid he won't be able to leave the peak of the Demon Domain!"

"Hehehe!"

Yan Ji looked at Lu Yuexi, who was full of anticipation, and a cold smile appeared on her lips.
