Because Jun Xiaoyao wanted to forge a path uniquely his own.
And this path was obviously not so easy to carve out.
The energy required would certainly be immense.
So Jun Xiaoyao needed to prepare for a rainy day.
He felt that the World Origin might be the most useful auxiliary item, the more the better.
Currently, he already possessed the World Origin of the Star Continent, and also a small portion of the World Origin of the Tianxuan Continent.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao planned to harvest Lin Feng.
After so much time, Lin Feng should have obtained the remaining World Origin of the Tianxuan Continent by now.
After obtaining the World Origin of the Star Continent, this hall seemed to have nothing else of value.
Finally, Jun Xiaoyao's gaze fell upon Wuji Xingjun's remains.
It was his corpse from his previous life, covered in wounds, seated majestically on the throne.
He looked like a formidable figure.
If he hadn't encountered Jun Xiaoyao, he might have truly succeeded in living out a second life.
Jun Xiaoyao stepped forward, glanced at Wuji Xingjun's remains, revealed a thoughtful expression, and then raised his hand to reach out.
"Holy moly, is Master going to loot a corpse?" The Nine-Headed Lion gasped.
Jun Xiaoyao was truly a ruthless person!
He didn't even let go of the chance to loot a corpse.
After fumbling for a while, Jun Xiaoyao withdrew his hand, which now held a sachet.
Yes, that's right, a sachet.
Moreover, it emitted a faint, lingering fragrance.
"My goodness, this Wuji Xingjun is a sissy, actually using a woman's sachet?" All nine heads of the Nine-Headed Lion showed astonished expressions.
Jun Xiaoyao chuckled lightly, shaking his head, "This isn't Wuji Xingjun's own item, it's a token."
"A token?" The Nine-Headed Lion tilted its head.
"A token to enter the Ten Realms Rift," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Dongxuan Old Ancestor had told him before that, apart from some individuals with great Luck and great perseverance who could enter the Ten Realms Rift,
there was another method: entering through a token.
The Heroic Spirit Altar within the Ten Realms Rift was where countless ancient heroes had once sought to prove their Dao and forge an unprecedented path.
However, most of them had perished.
And after their demise, they inevitably left behind some relics, imbued with the Aura of the Heroic Spirit Altar, which eventually circulated outside.
The Prodigies outside could use the Aura of these tokens to find the entrance to the Ten Realms Rift.
And this sachet was clearly left behind by a female hero.
After putting away the sachet, Jun Xiaoyao was also ready to leave.
He had obtained thousands of star nuclei, six Star-Shattering Divine Puppets, the Origin of the Star Continent, and a token to enter the Ten Realms Rift.
As for the Star-Slaying Destruction Bow, it was bestowed upon Yi Yu.
Jun Xiaoyao genuinely didn't care for the remaining treasures in the Star Palace.
However, he didn't waste them, telling Yi Yu and the Nine-Headed Lion to keep them.
They could be left for the Xuantian Sect later as a resource foundation.
After a thorough search, Jun Xiaoyao and the others walked out of the Star Palace and left the Dark Domain.
The moment Jun Xiaoyao stepped out of the Dark Domain.
A terrifying Aura suddenly erupted, filled with extreme rage.
Three figures stood in the Void Realm.
All of them exuded a powerful Quasi-Saint Aura.
"Oh my god, three Quasi-Saints?" Some Cultivators who had fortunately managed to escape the Dark Domain felt their scalps tingle.
Where did these three Quasi-Saints come from?
"No, they seem to be targeting the Jun Family Divine Child!" Some Cultivators noticed.
The gazes of the three Quasi-Saints were all locked onto Jun Xiaoyao.
"Divine Child..." Chu Hongyi, who had just walked out of the Star Palace, also showed a worried expression in her enchanting eyes.
If not for Jun Xiaoyao's casual assistance, she would not have been able to walk out of the Star Palace Treasury alive.
So, seeing Jun Xiaoyao in danger at this moment, she naturally felt concerned.
Jun Xiaoyao himself, however, remained composed.
He lifted his eyelids and said in the calmest tone imaginable, "The three Quasi-Saints of the Ye Family, what is the meaning of this?"
Jun Xiaoyao had long guessed that Ye Xingyun's descent to the Lower Realm could not have been without a Guardian.
It was just that due to the restrictions of the Dark Domain, the Guardian could not step in.
Among the three Quasi-Saints, a goat-bearded old man in the middle stepped forward.
Jun Xiaoyao was not unfamiliar with him; this old man was Ye Xingyun's old servant, Butler Fu.
"Jun Family Divine Child, Young Master Xingyun's soul lamp has extinguished," Butler Fu said with a look of sorrow.
The two Quasi-Saints beside him stared at Jun Xiaoyao with sharp, hawk-like eyes.
They all knew that Ye Xingyun and Jun Xiaoyao had had multiple conflicts.
If Ye Xingyun had fallen, the one with the greatest suspicion was undoubtedly Jun Xiaoyao.
Moreover, within this Lower Realm's Dark Domain, the only one capable of killing Ye Xingyun was Jun Xiaoyao.
"What if I say I didn't kill him?" Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.
It wasn't that he was afraid and wanted to defend himself.
It wasn't his fault to begin with, so why should he take the blame?
"Hmph, if you didn't kill him, then in this situation, who else could kill Young Master Ye besides you?" The two Quasi-Saints next to Butler Fu coldly snorted.
Jun Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow, his expression suddenly sinking as he said,
"This Divine Child explains because I don't want to take this blame for no reason. Do you really think this Divine Child is afraid of you?"
As Jun Xiaoyao's words fell, that chilling Aura caused the two Quasi-Saints to fall silent for a moment, unable to utter harsh words.
In terms of cultivation, they weren't afraid of Jun Xiaoyao, but in terms of identity, they couldn't afford to offend Jun Xiaoyao.
Butler Fu waved his hand and said, "Divine Child, please calm your anger. This old man just wants to know the truth of Young Master's demise."
Butler Fu's attitude caused Jun Xiaoyao's expression to soften slightly, and then he briefly explained in a few sentences.
"So that's how it is." Upon hearing this, Butler Fu's eyes showed even deeper sorrow.
He hadn't expected Ye Xingyun not to die by Jun Xiaoyao's hand, but instead to die in such a humiliating manner.
"Is that really true?" The other two Quasi-Saints showed suspicious expressions.
Jun Xiaoyao sneered, "If this Divine Child truly did it, then he would have killed him and admitted it. Would this Divine Child not admit to killing a mere Ye Xingyun?"
These words made the eyelids of those two Quasi-Saints twitch.
Only the Jun Family Divine Child would dare to say such words.
"Thank you, Divine Child, for clarifying. Alas, Young Master Xingyun fell due to his own arrogance and conceit." Butler Fu's face was filled with sorrow, and he seemed to have aged a few years in an instant.
Jun Xiaoyao sighed softly, "Having such a loyal old servant is also Ye Xingyun's good fortune."
"Not at all, this old man is quite incompetent..." Butler Fu sighed, casually cupped his hands, feeling somewhat disheartened.
Afterward, they departed, preparing to relay this terrible news back to the Ye Family.
Such things, in fact, were quite common.
In an era of great contention, the fall of a Prodigy was nothing out of the ordinary.
Ye Xingyun was merely one of countless ripples, vanishing in an instant.
"Next, it's time to return to the Tianxuan Continent, and then resolve the matters of the other Sin Clan, and also find Jun Wanjie's sister," Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
And just as the last wave of turmoil on the Star Continent was nearing its end,
a shocking upheaval was stirring on the Tianxuan Continent.
Numerous Archaic Divine Mountains from the Central Forbidden Zone collectively entered the world, intending to sweep across the four domains of East, West, South, and North, and establish the order of the Archaic Race.
The Human Race forces, led by the Eastern Xuan Dao Sect, were the first to bear the brunt, suffering devastating blows.
Especially the Eastern Xuan Dao Sect, due to the surprise attack, the entire Eastern Xuan Dao Sect was caught off guard by the Archaic Divine Mountains.
Except for a few strong individuals like the Eastern Xuan Sect Master who barely escaped with injuries, all other Cultivators of the Eastern Xuan Dao Sect were annihilated!
This news shook the entire four great Xuan Domains of East, West, South, and North!
For a time, everyone on the Tianxuan Continent felt a sense of impending danger!
