Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The bronze fragment was very small, not even half a palm in size. It was engraved with dense, indecipherable characters.

Suzaku's golden pupils trembled slightly when she saw it.

She had long known that Jun Wuxie possessed this bronze piece, but seeing it now still stirred some emotions within her.

“Aunt You, I’ve tried using the Primordial Sword Embryo. This thing should also be of Primordial Divine Metal grade. If I refine and fuse it into my body, should I be able to unlock a Hidden Gate?”

“No.” Suzaku shook her head and said, “You cannot refine this thing. It’s not ordinary Primordial Divine Metal, but a fragment of an artifact. The characters engraved on it are from before the Immortal Ancient era. If we can find all the fragments, piece them together, re-sacrifice and refine them, and restore the artifact to its original form, we might be able to learn something about the events before the Immortal Ancient era.”

“Before the Immortal Ancient era?”

Jun Wuxie was taken aback. He knew, of course, that the bronze piece was extraordinary, judging by its material alone.

He just didn't expect its origin to be so ancient, actually dating back to before the Immortal Ancient era. No wonder he didn't recognize a single character on it!

“Yes, keep it safe. In the future, look for more fragments. If you gather all the fragments and reforge them into a complete artifact, its power will exceed your imagination.”

“Judging by the size of the fragment, the artifact must have shattered into countless pieces. Deliberately searching for them is simply impossible. This thing is a matter of chance, one can only rely on luck. Who knows when we'll be able to collect them all…” He said with a wry smile, “Then how do I open the second Hidden Gate? There's no other Primordial Divine Metal now.”

Suzaku smiled faintly and said, “Isn't it easy to use Primordial Divine Metal to open a Hidden Gate? How about refining your Primordial Sword Embryo? You only need to cut off a very short piece of the sword tip.”

“That won't do!”

Jun Wuxie's lips twitched, and he said, “This is the sect token of my Immortal Execution Sword Sect, personally given to me by the founder. How could I damage it to open a Hidden Gate!”

“Then you'll have to wait. There's no rush to open a Hidden Gate, we'll talk about it in the future. The path of cultivation is extremely long. It's already very difficult for you to open the first Hidden Gate before reaching the Saint Realm. After all, the conditions are too harsh. Obtaining Primordial Divine Metal requires heaven-defying luck, a matter of chance.”

“That's all I can do…”

Jun Wuxie was somewhat unwilling, but the conditions were not ripe, and there was no way.

He thought for a while, opened the Spirit Void Privilege interface in his sea of consciousness, and the loss in his heart was swept away when he looked at the million Spirit Void points.

The Golden Scale Secret Realm would not open until at least tomorrow. Before that, he wanted to see what effect these Spirit Void points would have if they were all used to nourish the World Tree.

He sank his mind into the cave heaven and began to release Spirit Void points.

Special Spirit Void energy poured down like a waterfall, nourishing the World Tree that had been rooted in the Fate Star and dormant for a long time.

The withered sprouts instantly regained their vitality.

Jun Wuxie watched as the Spirit Void points decreased madly, and the World Tree entered a rapid growth mode in the process.

The trunk gradually rose higher and higher, and branches grew out one after another. Green buds grew on the branches and quickly turned into green leaves, surrounded by green light, crystal clear.

One meter, two meters, three meters…

The growth rate of the World Tree became faster and faster. At the beginning, it grew one meter at a time, but when it reached about ten meters, it grew ten meters at a time.

Its branches and leaves extended in all directions, like a green umbrella. Each leaf was crystal clear and dazzling, filled with a mysterious and refreshing aura, with a powerful life force flowing within.

Moreover, mysterious Dao patterns occasionally lit up on the trunk and leaves of the World Tree, and it was rapidly recovering.

When the special energy waterfall no longer fell and the Spirit Void points were exhausted, the World Tree had grown to a height of a thousand meters, with lush branches and leaves. When the leaves swayed, they collided with each other, creating ripples of green light.

At that moment, he had a long-lost feeling again.

It was the feeling of having a mysterious source of origin energy constantly pouring into his body.

He knew that it was the World Tree absorbing the origin of the world and feeding part of it back to him.

“World Tree!”

“Mm.” The World Tree responded to him, her voice gentle and like heavenly music, “I thought I would be dormant for a long time, but I didn't expect you to obtain so much origin energy of not low purity in the Spirit Void Realm…”

“Origin energy?”

Jun Wuxie was stunned. That's not right. Although the Spirit Void points used to contain origin energy, they were not origin energy.

What kind of energy is this origin energy?

“Mm.” The World Tree seemed to see the doubts in his heart and said, “There are some things you don't need to worry about. What is origin energy, and don't ask, that is far beyond the scope of what you can understand now. Now that I have recovered to this state, after a period of self-repair, when you reach the Upper Realm, I will be able to help you cultivate.”

“Okay, I won't ask. Then I won't disturb your self-repair.”

Jun Wuxie withdrew his mind from the cave heaven, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Suzaku looking at Chan'er with a smile, and Chan'er was happily talking to her about something.

“Brother Jun~” Chan'er saw him wake up, excitedly took his hand, and said, “Aunt You is so beautiful~ Chan'er wants to be so beautiful when she grows up~”

“Mm, Chan'er is very beautiful now, and she will definitely be as beautiful as Aunt You when she grows up.” He said with a smile, and then looked at Suzaku: “Aunt You, why did you let her see you?”

“Chan'er is too lonely. Let me accompany her when you are not here. This time in the Golden Scale Secret Realm, I will not follow you, there is no Darkness or Abyss Plague there.”

“Okay.”

Jun Wuxie touched the tip of his nose, told Chan'er a few words, left the house and walked towards the back mountain.

Soon, he came to the mountain valley courtyard where Yue Chenyu lived.

Yue Chenyu sat at the stone table in the courtyard, concentrating on flipping through a book, with a focused expression.

At this time, her temperament was very gentle, completely different from her usual aggressive coldness.

He stepped forward.

At this moment, Yue Chenyu closed the book and turned to look.

“What book are you reading?”

He couldn't help but be curious, and his eyes fell on the cover of the book, and he couldn't help but be stunned: “Unofficial History?”

“Is there a problem?”

Yue Chenyu's temperament returned to that of coldness.

Her coldness is different from the coldness of the Ice Cloud Tower.

The coldness of the people in the Ice Cloud Tower is a kind of delicate, fresh, and cold like ice and snow.

Yue Chenyu's coldness is a kind of dangerous and aggressive coldness, like a ruthless killer.

“What's so good about unofficial history? You yourself are a living ancient history, much more authoritative than these unofficial histories.”

Jun Wuxie used to read so many unofficial histories in Qingyang City that they could fill a house.

Ninety-nine percent of the unofficial histories are fabricated, and there are also some historical truths and secrets, but it is difficult to judge the truth, because there is no way to verify them, and there is no argument.

“I'm happy.”

Yue Chenyu said lightly, her voice with a sense of coldness.

“Is that how you talk to Senior Brother?” Jun Wuxie sat down opposite her, tapping the table rhythmically with his fingers, and said, “Hurry up and brew a pot of hot tea for your Senior Brother.”

“Did Senior Brother come here to Chenyu's place specifically to drink tea?”

She looked at him calmly, but her eyes were always that kind of cold, as if it was innate.

“You should have known about the opening of the Golden Scale Secret Realm, right?”

Yue Chenyu nodded.

“I came to ask you to go to the Golden Scale Secret Realm, but seeing your attitude is so bad, I decided to order you to stay in the sect as the sect master and not allow you to leave.”

After he finished speaking, he got up and turned to leave.

“You are using your power to vent your personal anger.”

Yue Chenyu chased after him, flashed and stopped him.

“I'm happy.”

Jun Wuxie said lightly, bypassed her and was about to leave, but Yue Chenyu immediately blocked him again.

“What do you want me to do to agree to take me?”

“Admit your mistake, and I'll take you.”

“Okay, I admit my mistake.” After Yue Chenyu finished speaking, she saw that Jun Wuxie didn't move, and couldn't help but remind him: “Let's go, haven't I admitted my mistake?”

“Is that what you call admitting your mistake? Your attitude is not correct enough. You have to say I'm wrong, Senior Brother, please spare me.”

Yue Chenyu bit her bright red lips, took a deep breath, tried to make her eyes softer, with a bit of pleading, and her voice was not so cold, and said: "Senior Brother, Chenyu is wrong, please spare me, okay?"

Pfft!

Jun Wuxie couldn't hold back any longer and laughed out loud.

“Is it very funny?” Yue Chenyu glared at him coldly and said, “You don't look like a Senior Brother at all.”

“Do you look like a Junior Sister?”

Jun Wuxie summoned Lan Lan, turned over and sat on it, and stretched out his hand to Yue Chenyu.

Yue Chenyu grabbed her hand and jumped in front of him.

Lan Lan disappeared into the end of the sky like a ray of blue light.

In an instant, they entered the Dragon Scale Mountain Range. According to the coordinates given by the Great Elder of the Myriad Worlds Ancient Academy, they went all the way deep and soon reached their destination.

This is a plain.

In the central area of ​​the plain, there is a not-so-high fractured mountain.

An ancient palace stands on the top of the broken mountain.

The surface of the palace is covered with traces of years, with a kind of vast atmosphere emanating from it.

Under the broken mountain on the front of the palace, many high platforms have been newly built, each force occupying a high platform, gathering many people.

The major forces of the Emperor Beginning Star have come, and the sects and families above the quasi-Dominator level have gathered here.

Jun Wuxie landed on the high platform of the Eternal Ancient Academy. A look of joy flashed in the Great Elder's eyes as he said, "You've finally arrived. I went to Mount Zongwang to find you, but heard that you had gone to the Spirit Void Realm. I figured the Golden Scale Secret Realm hadn't officially opened yet, so I didn't disturb you."

"Lord Jun!"

Many prodigies stepped forward to greet him.

"Young Master Jun~"

Xu Yan smiled and walked up to him, her gaze intentionally or unintentionally glancing at Yue Chenyu, who was riding with him.

Jun Wuxie smiled and greeted them, then dismounted and walked to the side of the Great Elder and the Ninth Elder. He glanced at the palace on the mountaintop and said, "What's the situation? Could it be that the palace is the Golden Scale Secret Realm?"

"That's right. The Golden Scale Secret Realm is inside that palace. When the doors of the palace open, passing through the doors will take you into the inner world of the Golden Scale Secret Realm. This time, competing for the Saint Origin in the Golden Scale Secret Realm, looking at the entire Emperor Beginning Star, there are probably only a few people who can compete with you."

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

In the younger generation of this Emperor Beginning Star, who else could compete with him?

The Great Elder said there were only a few people, implying that there were still some.

"Do you see over there?"

The Great Elder gestured with his eyes.

Jun Wuxie followed his gaze and saw more than a dozen people wearing golden battle armor on a high platform over there.

They had golden hair, golden eyes, and terrifying energy dormant within their bodies.

"People from the Golden Ancient City?" Jun Wuxie narrowed his eyes, looked them over, and said, "They don't seem quite like it..."

"Golden Ancient Mine!"

The Great Elder secretly transmitted his voice.

Jun Wuxie's heart skipped a beat, and his pupils contracted slightly.

"A forbidden zone of life, the Golden Ancient Mine?"

He didn't expect that people from the forbidden zone of life would be involved in the Golden Scale Secret Realm.

He had fought with people from Divine Phoenix Mountain before, but they were only the weakest collateral branch.

The bloodline level of the people from the Golden Ancient Mine in front of him was obviously much stronger than the weakest collateral branch of Divine Phoenix Mountain back then.

Among them were two young men and one young woman, who were likely the people who would be entering the Golden Scale Secret Realm.

The golden true energy dormant within their bodies was extremely profound, and their life blood energy was as vigorous as a dragon.

His Primordial True Eyes spied on the intensity of their talent growth; all three of them were at the First Level of the Legendary of the Ages!

"They may pose a threat to you. If you can avoid being hostile to the people from the Golden Ancient Mine, try to do so. These people are only from a collateral branch in the Golden Ancient Mine. They should be from a relatively strong collateral branch with a high bloodline purity, but they are far from the direct line. They belong to the Golden Ancient Race, one of the strongest ancient bloodlines since ancient times!"

The Great Elder secretly transmitted his voice, telling him this information.
