Chapter 396: Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine

The two continued forward, encountering many of the Ancient Race along the way; some even reached the Immortal Terrace Second Layer, but before they could escape, they were forcefully killed by Jiang Taixu.

Regarding these Ancient Race, Jiang Taixu showed no mercy.

Firstly, he worried about alerting powerful existences deeper within, and secondly, he held the mindset that "those not of my race must have a different heart."

Since he knew the origins of the alien race, he naturally would not be soft-hearted.

Just like that, the two entered a vast Dongfu, which resembled a great hall and was extremely spacious.

The great hall was several hundred zhang in circumference, like a plaza.

In reality, this was the interior of the Wu Shi Bell, which was suppressing Purple Mountain and had formed this hall.

The empty hall was somewhat dim, and Yin Qi discovered a lonely skeleton lying quietly in a corner, with shocking finger holes on its body.

Beside it was a scroll of silver books, flickering with a cold, ghostly luster.

"The Wu Shi Sutra!"

"Obtained Source Heaven Book, Qi Luck bolstered!"

Jiang Taixu shook his head and said, "You discovered this first, so it naturally belongs to you. However, as for this Source Heaven Book, it is best not to cultivate it if you can avoid it. It is said that every Source Heaven Master meets an ominous end in their later years."

On the purple rocky ground not far away, there were some scattered stone clothes, tattered and ruined, long since beyond recognition.

There was a stone book standing on the ground here, over ten meters long and one or two meters thick.

Hearing this, Jiang Taixu felt it made quite a lot of sense.

Passing through the hall, Yin Qi and Jiang Taixu continued forward and soon arrived at an open expanse of terrain.

Yin Qi shook his head and said, "God King, since we discovered this Source Heaven Master together, let us share it. After we go out, you can make a copy."

When that time comes, what kind of ominousness could find him?

Digging a pit on the spot, Yin Qi buried the skeleton, which could be considered laying it to rest in the earth.

With the talent Yin Qi had displayed, not to mention becoming a Great Emperor, becoming a Quasi-Emperor should not be much of a problem.

Yin Qi stepped forward and picked up the silver book; it felt exceptionally heavy in his hand, and three ancient characters were carved on it: Source Heaven Book.

Yin Qi did not stand on ceremony either; he put away the Source Heaven Book and chuckled, "The so-called ominousness is merely someone playing god. As long as I am strong enough, they will not dare to come after me."

Jiang Taixu saw the text on the stone book and couldn't help but exclaim, "How could the Emperor Scripture of Wu Shi Dadi be here? Could this also be the place where Wu Shi Dadi sleeps?"

A grand voice resounded in his mind, and his red Qi Luck suddenly surged to one zhang.

……

The fifth-generation Source Heaven Master, Zhang Lin, was even earlier than Jiang Taixu by several thousand years.

"Source Heaven Book!"

Jiang Taixu exclaimed, "Throughout history, the Northern Region has produced five Source Heaven Masters, each of them a brilliant talent. I did not expect the Source Heaven Book to be lost here; could this be the fifth-generation Source Heaven Master?"

The strokes were like silver hooks and iron paintings, the brushwork vigorous, the characters heavy and condensed, like three crouching azure dragons.

"No, this should be a descendant of the Source Heaven Master."

Behind the stone book, vines covered the ground, lush and green; those ancient mines were overgrown with plants, and it was through them that the demonic power was being emitted.

Yin Qi nodded and said, "Correct, this is also the mausoleum of Wu Shi Dadi. Let's go. Wu Shi Dadi was an Innate Saint Body Dao Fetus; his Emperor Scripture can only be inherited and cultivated by those with the same bloodline, so let us not dwell on it."

Jiang Taixu turned his head, his expression solemn as he said, "How did you know that? At the end of the Immortal Path, who is the peak? Upon meeting Wu Shi, the Dao becomes empty. The world only knows of the power of Wu Shi Dadi, but no one has ever known what his constitution was."

At this moment, he felt Yin Qi was even more mysterious.

Clearly only at the peak of the Sea of Wheels Realm, yet able to exert the combat power of a Slashing Dao King.

The acupoints all over his body and that terrifying Blade Intent both made him feel alarmed.

If he were merely strong, that would be one thing, but he happened to be well-versed in various secrets, not only knowing that this was the sleeping place of the Ancient Race but even knowing the constitution of Wu Shi Dadi.

Wu Shi Dadi was undoubtedly lonely; he swept across the world without leaving behind a sect or a family.

Therefore, the world knew very little about the affairs of Wu Shi Dadi.

"That is a secret!"

Yin Qi smiled slightly and continued forward.

This sentence was not only for Jiang Taixu but also for the Black Emperor.

He believed this big black dog must be interested in him now.

Since he even knew what constitution Wu Shi Dadi had, did he perhaps know other secrets regarding Wu Shi Dadi?

Seeing Yin Qi say this, Jiang Taixu did not ask further.

Everyone has secrets; if one insists on getting to the bottom of things, it will only lead to enmity.

There were many good things in Purple Mountain, and there was even an Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine that once belonged to Wu Shi Dadi.

It was still early before the Ancient Race would awaken.

If he did not take this opportunity to scavenge, there would be no chance later.

Under the observation of the divine spirit in his acupoints, the big black dog was scratching its head and ears, looking quite itchy with curiosity.

His curiosity had been piqued by Yin Qi.

……

Passing a high platform, the two arrived at another open area, following an ancient road paved with green jade; climbing the steps, they reached an ancient site with ruins of pavilions, as well as withered old vines and ancient trees.

Water shimmered; ahead was a pool, actually carved out of green jade, forming a body of water with white mist steaming upward.

When they reached the end of the flowing water, the clouds were steaming and the mists were swirling, with five-colored light, and there was an even more brilliant spring pool, carved out of five-colored Cai Yu.

"Divine Spring!"

Jiang Taixu revealed a look of joy, stepped forward and collected half of it, then turned his head and said, "Little brother, the rest belongs to you. Eh, why is there black dog fur here?"

*Cough cough! *

Yin Qi could not help but cough lightly.

He knew that this was actually the bathing pool of that big black dog.

Yin Qi found it hard to be blunt, so he shook his head and said, "Since the Source Heaven Book has gone to me, then all of these shall go to you."

"Very well, then many thanks!"

Jiang Taixu did not decline either, and he put away the remaining Divine Spring, which made the big black dog hiding behind them grin, looking as if it wanted to burst into laughter.

Just at this moment, a burst of fragrance drifted over, making Yin Qi feel comfortable all over, as if his soul were about to float away.

Immediately following, a brilliant bird flew over the heads of the few, five-colored and ten-hued, beautiful to the point of being almost unreal.

"Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine!"

In Yin Qi's mind, this term suddenly popped out.

It was completely instinctive; he struck out directly, like a clever monkey spreading its claws, grabbed the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine in one go, and then, without waiting for the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine to react, threw it into his Bitter Sea.

Boom—!

In an instant, the purple-gold Bitter Sea surged with giant waves, and Divine Light shone through his body, illuminating the surroundings as if it were a Divine Kingdom.

Above the Bitter Sea, the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine flew up and down, somewhat flustered, but it soon calmed down, submerged into the Bitter Sea, and took deep root in the depths of the first Life Spring.

Even until this moment, Yin Qi felt somewhat dazed.

The Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine had been caught by him just like that!

Even if placed in the Primordial World, this Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine could be called an Acquired Spiritual Root.

"Woof woof!"

Black Emperor finally could not hold back; he rushed out from behind, stood up on his hind legs, and shouted, "Kid, that is the pet I raised, return it to me quickly."

This was the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine, after all; he had spent so many years with it, yet he had never been able to get close to it.

This kid was so young, perhaps he did not even recognize the Undying Divine Phoenix Medicine.

Jiang Taixu was startled and became secretly vigilant.

If it were not for the fact that the other party was just an Ordinary big black dog, he would have attacked directly.

The corners of Yin Qi's mouth curled up slightly, and he said meaningfully, "This is Purple Mountain; as far as I know, only the Ancient Race sleeps here. Could it be that you are also of the Ancient Race? Otherwise, how could the pet you raised appear here?"

"I, the dignified Black Emperor, how could I possibly be of the Ancient Race? I am..."
