Jiang Shengyi departed.
With her were Yu Qingning and the Godly Silkworm Princess, who had transformed into her true form.
Jiang Shengyi knew that this trip to Yaochi Holy Land would greatly aid her Cultivation.
Moreover, she possessed the Jade Pool Immortal Scripture, which could help the Yaochi Holy Land rise again.
It was even possible for Jiang Shengyi to become the new generation's sect master of the Yaochi Holy Land in the future.
After all, she was still the Disciple of Yu Qingning, the ancient sect master.
Although Jiang Shengyi felt a sense of reluctance, she left decisively, without any lingering or tearful farewells.
She was also an independent and strong woman who wouldn't cling to Jun Xiaoyao.
Separation was for a longer future.
"Hey, Xiaoyao Gege, are you dazed? She's already gone," Jiang Luoli teased, waving her small hand in front of Jun Xiaoyao.
"No, after resting for so long, it's time for me to Cultivate as well," Jun Xiaoyao said with a relieved smile.
He wasn't the type to be overly engrossed in romantic affections.
Furthermore, the news of Jun Wuhui and the new Emperor from the exotic Realm had brought significant pressure upon Jun Xiaoyao.
He needed to progress rapidly.
And the greatest Opportunity thereafter would undoubtedly be the Ultimate Trial at the end of the Ancient Road.
Jun Xiaoyao also needed to prepare thoroughly.
Next, he planned to enter seclusion for a period to Cultivate the Book of Life.
He also intended to transfer the Spring of Life into his Inner Universe.
However, before that, Jun Xiaoyao glanced at Ah Jiu.
He suddenly said, "Ah Jiu, you can act freely; you don't need to secretly protect me anymore."
Upon hearing this, a slight ripple flashed in Ah Jiu's eyes.
"Young Lord, why?"
"With your talent, Ah Jiu, if you hadn't been secretly following me all this time, your current Realm should be beyond the Little Heavenly Venerate Realm," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Ah Jiu had sacrificed too much of her time to be his Guardian.
"Ah Jiu doesn't mind," Ah Jiu replied.
She had followed Jun Wuhui and was from the same era as him.
Although she appeared exquisitely beautiful, the subtle traces of time in her eyes hinted at her age.
It indicated that she was much older than Jiang Shengyi and Jiang Luoli.
However, this accumulation of years did not diminish Ah Jiu's grace in the slightest.
Instead, it imbued her with a unique maturity and poise, a profound understanding of worldly affairs.
This was a special charm that neither Jiang Shengyi nor Jiang Luoli possessed.
"You may not mind, but I cannot delay you," Jun Xiaoyao said.
After a brief silence, Ah Jiu nodded her head slightly and said, "Alright, since it is what the Young Lord wishes, then Ah Jiu will naturally comply."
Ah Jiu turned and was about to leave.
"Wait," Jun Xiaoyao said.
Ah Jiu's lotus-like steps paused.
"Thank you, for everything," Jun Xiaoyao cupped his hands towards Ah Jiu, his tone extremely sincere.
His gratitude was heartfelt.
"Just a bow of thanks?" Ah Jiu's lips suddenly curved into a faint smile.
Jun Xiaoyao was momentarily stunned.
He looked at the woman before him, her black hair cascading like a waterfall, her face beautiful to the point of being dreamlike.
He stepped forward and gently embraced her.
Ah Jiu's delicate body trembled slightly, and a ripple appeared in her beautiful eyes.
She had only made a small playful remark, not expecting Jun Xiaoyao to make such a gesture.
But Ah Jiu did not resist; she also gently embraced Jun Xiaoyao.
A simple, warm hug.
"Ah Jiu, you protected my safety before; from now on, I will protect your well-being for a lifetime," Jun Xiaoyao whispered into Ah Jiu's ear.
A captivating smile appeared on Ah Jiu's dreamlike face.
"Thank you, Young Lord."
Finally, Ah Jiu also left.
She also embarked on her own Cultivation path.
At least, until Jun Xiaoyao had fully grown into a Giant.
Ah Jiu still wished to make further progress and then continue to silently guard Jun Xiaoyao.
Watching Ah Jiu's departing back, Jun Xiaoyao sighed softly.
At this moment, he felt a resentful gaze fixed on him from behind.
Jun Xiaoyao turned around and saw Jiang Luoli pouting.
"Xiaoyao Gege... you scumbag!"
Jiang Luoli glared at Jun Xiaoyao.
Jiang Shengyi had just left, and he was already hugging other women. Wasn't this solid proof of him being a scumbag?
Jun Xiaoyao was speechless.
This was merely a hug of gratitude, with no other meaning whatsoever.
Subsequently, Jiang Luoli also prepared to leave.
Of course, it wasn't because she was angry with Jun Xiaoyao.
Rather, she also had her own path to walk.
Especially after obtaining the fragmented Yuanling World, Jiang Luoli intended to seek other Opportunities to repair the Yuanling World and then thoroughly refine it.
Having transformed into the Yuan Ling Immortal Body, if she could completely refine the Yuanling World, her Cultivation Realm would undoubtedly skyrocket.
"Finally, I'm alone again," Jun Xiaoyao exhaled softly.
Apart from Princess Longji, who was receiving the Legacy of the Nine-Fingered Saint Dragon Emperor, he was once again by himself.
"But this is good too; I also need to enter seclusion and plan for the next steps," Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
Dealing with the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors and seizing the World Tree in the Ultimate Trial.
These were all things Jun Xiaoyao needed to strategize.
"Gambling with Heaven, I must not lose!" Jun Xiaoyao's eyes shone brightly.
Currently, four of the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors have been confirmed.
Ling Yuan, Ancient Emperor Child, Long Yao'er, and Xuanyue.
No...
There should be more than four.
A profound glint flashed in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao also entered seclusion, beginning to comprehend the Book of Life while preparing to move the Spring of Life into his Inner Universe.
The entire Burial Emperor Star fell into silence.
However, news still occasionally spread of certain Prodigies acquiring Opportunities and soaring to great heights.
And the news concerning Jun Xiaoyao ignited the entire Ultimate Ancient Road.
This battle between the Sacred Body and the Overlord would undoubtedly be etched into ancient history.
Of course, the classic nature of this battle wasn't due to how fiercely or indecisively the two fought.
On the contrary, it was fought too simply, with Jun Xiaoyao using his Dharma Body to humiliate, watching the entire spectacle.
Finally, his true self made a powerful move, sealing the victory.
This battle was regarded by many as a prime example of humiliating others.
It is said that after this battle, a trend of Cultivating Dharma Bodies emerged among the young Prodigies.
Each one wanted to use their Dharma Body to humiliate others.
However, they soon discovered, "Why the hell is my Dharma Body so weak?"
"Are you guys out of your minds? The Jun Family Divine Child's true strength is evident; even if his Dharma Body only possesses one-tenth of his power, it's enough to crush many taboo figures."
"All of you are as weak as chickens in your true forms, yet you want to imitate the Divine Child and use your Dharma Bodies to oppress others and show off?" a Prodigy mercilessly pointed out.
However, just as the battle between the Sacred Body and the Overlord was widely discussed,
Another piece of news gradually began to brew and intensify.
That was, the competition for the Young Emperor of the Supreme Immortal Court seemed to be nearing its end.
All the Prodigies along the entire Ultimate Ancient Road were drawn to this news, closely monitoring it.
The reason was simple: because the Immortal Court Young Emperor had the qualification to become the Lord of the Immortal Court.
And after the Immortal Court Young Emperor was established, many also speculated whether the Supreme Immortal Court, which had already fallen apart, would reassemble.
The Immortal Court Young Emperor would undoubtedly be the core symbolic existence.
While the outside world was closely watching,
In another vast, unknown space.
In this space, Spiritual Qi was abundant, and Immortal light permeated everywhere.
Countless stone tablets stood within it, forming a stone forest.
Many of these stone tablets were engraved with taboo Legacies.
These were Legacies left behind by many predecessors and powerhouses of the Immortal Court.
Among them were numerous Emperor-level Legacies, no less inferior to those on the Burial Emperor Star.
This space was precisely the location where the Immortal Court held the Young Emperor competition, the Fairy Tablet Forest.
As a colossal entity that once ruled the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain,
The Supreme Immortal Court had a considerable number of Great Emperors.
Therefore, the Legacies left behind would naturally not be few.
Many believed that, apart from the Jun Family, whose Legacy was ancient and unfathomable,
The number of Great Emperors possessed by the Supreme Immortal Court should be among the top in the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
And at this moment, in the core area of the Fairy Tablet Forest, an incredibly dazzling brilliant light illuminated all directions.
Within this boundless brilliant light, a faint, illusory throne could be seen.
That throne exuded a supreme aura, with Immortal light swirling around it.
An aura far more vast than Emperor's might was spreading and permeating.
The heavenly emperor throne!
This was the supreme symbol of the Immortal Court, a supreme object that suppressed the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
Because this was not an Emperor Armament, but a true Immortal Artifact!
