Among countless star regions and the boundless universe, there are not many that can be called life origin stars.
Shaohua had never visited Earth before. She knew that no matter how similar it was, this was not her homeland from her previous life.
Of course, at her level, finding a life origin star in the vast universe was not a difficult task, especially since Earth had once been glorious, and its star region coordinates were not some top secret.
Shaohua had originally intended to go home and bring her parents, but now with the immortal treasure map, there was no need for that trouble; she could go by herself.
Time and space shifted, and a blue planet appeared before her eyes.
Looking at the inexplicably familiar continental plates, a tremor arose in her heart. Unfortunately, in this life and the last, it was merely a similar star.
The blue planet was not very large, far from comparable to the Bei Dou Star Region, yet it held an inexplicable vast aura, as if some supreme existence lay dormant there.
"Earth, the Primordial Ancient Star."
Shaohua's eyes flashed. She took a step, stopping on the Moon, and felt a trace of Lunar Holy Power.
In ancient times, this place should have also been a source of Lunar energy, but it had dissipated countless years ago, leaving only cold rocks and lunar soil.
"There's no Guanghan Palace."
She strolled leisurely on the Moon, her green robes fluttering. In the end, she found nothing. If she had time in the future, she wouldn't mind leaving a small archaeological shock for future generations here.
She chuckled a few times, her gaze sweeping over the crimson star nearby. That was Yinghuo Ancient Star, also known as Mars in later generations, which was likewise no ordinary place.
Then she turned her gaze to Earth, finding that the Heavenly Dao there was not as incomplete and the spiritual energy not as sparse as imagined; it was not some near-spiritual desolate era.
Of course, it was definitely not a good place for cultivation, completely incomparable to ancient star regions like Bei Dou and Ziwei. There were only two or three Saints dwelling there.
One must know that the current era could be considered a great one. Logically speaking, a life origin star like Earth should at least have a Great Saint, and even the birth of a Quasi-Emperor would not be surprising.
"Made by Niney-Nine Dragon Mountain, ruined by Niney-Nine Dragon Mountain." Shaohua knew many things and quickly discerned the truth.
After the Immortal-Making Cauldron was conceived, Niney-Nine Dragon Mountain inversely overflowed with spiritual energy, and Earth, which had not completely dried up, became even more abundant in spiritual energy and more glorious, becoming a famous life origin star in the universe.
Unfortunately, later, the Yuhua Divine Dynasty vainly attempted to repair the Great Emperor's Immortal-Making Cauldron, placing the broken Green Cauldron back at its birthplace, trying to restore it.
And then came the story of the Ruthless Great Emperor and her brother. Even the Immortal Land in Niney-Nine Dragon Mountain was shattered by the Ruthless Great Emperor's palm.
The incomplete Immortal-Making Cauldron was not taken by the Ruthless Great Emperor. She simply did not care about the so-called hope of Ascension; she only had the obsession of waiting for one person to return in the mortal world.
But Niney-Nine Dragon Mountain was still there, still slowly repairing the Green Cauldron, and so Earth's spiritual energy was continuously drawn, making cultivation naturally more difficult.
It wasn't until two hundred thousand years later that Earth completely entered the Age of Dharma Decline.
The era Shaohua was in was not far from the Ruthless Great Emperor's era. Stories of her past still circulated, and even her orthodoxy still existed, unlike later generations who knew little about her.
Putting aside her scattered thoughts, she descended to Earth, arriving at Niney-Nine Dragon Mountain, which was deep within Kunlun Mountain.
Majestic Kunlun, grand and vast, spanning heaven and earth, pressing down on the eight wastes.
Shaohua took out the immortal treasure map and stepped into the mountain, seeing many ancient beasts, and even some audacious ones who tried to attack her.
One could only say that ignorance was bliss. Sometimes, suppressing one's aura too completely was not a good thing.
She shook her head, and her near-Great Emperor aura flashed, causing all beasts to instantly prostrate on the ground, trembling with fear, not daring to act presumptuously, as if revering a deity.
Without going too deep, she saw a half-divine medicine, a human-shaped Old He Shou Wu, about half a meter tall, seemingly being chased by something. It was moving through the earth veins, fleeing, but unexpectedly, it ran directly into Shaohua's feet.
The Old He Shou Wu was instantly dumbfounded. Its hazy consciousness perceived that it seemed to have encountered an existence it could not afford to provoke. Not knowing where it learned it, it immediately knelt down and pleaded, sending out a vague thought.
Shaohua couldn't help but laugh, saying, "I only came for Immortal medicine; I won't do anything to you."
Although this Old He Shou Wu was divine, it was not comparable to Immortal medicine and could not leave this place, so it was of little use to her.
The Old He Shou Wu naturally thanked Shaohua profusely, bowing in worship. Just as it was about to leave, a white figure suddenly darted over.
Shaohua instinctively reached out and caught the small creature, which was completely harmless to her.
As she looked closely, she couldn't help but blink, a slightly strange smile appearing on her beautiful immortal face.
This was a small white tiger, only about a foot long, exuding a fragrant scent and interwoven with Dao principles. Its entire body glowed with auspicious light, extremely profound and astonishing.
Ha, this was no ordinary creature; it was clearly the famous White Tiger Divine Medicine, shaped like a small white tiger, with leaves and roots, its entire body as white as jade, radiating brilliant light and ascending immortal qi.
"Little cutie, come into my arms." Shaohua casually picked up the White Tiger Divine Medicine.
The White Tiger Divine Medicine did not struggle. Like a docile kitten, it quietly lay in her embrace, hoping to receive protection and not worry about others coveting it.
Shaohua sighed with emotion. She could be considered to have protagonist treatment, with Immortal medicine actively seeking to follow her. One must know that it was not so easy when she subdued the Life Ancient Tree on the Mythological Other Shore.
The number of Immortal medicine in the world is limited, and each one is a unique existence. It is said that every Great Emperor cultivated an Immortal medicine, accompanying them throughout their lives, and the medicine contained a shocking great secret.
So the Life Ancient Tree actually belonged to Shaohua's family. There was a rumor in the world that the West Empress possessed the Immortal medicine Life Ancient Tree.
Shaohua felt that it couldn't be that other Great Emperors and Ancient Sovereigns had Immortal medicine, but her own mother didn't, right?
She continued deeper into Kunlun and saw the traces left by the Ruthless Great Emperor there.
"I'm going to die. Who will help me take care of my sister?"
"I just can't stop worrying about my sister."
"Not for Ascension, but to wait for your return in this mortal world." A woman's voice seemed to come from above the nine heavens.
"Ruthless Great Emperor…" Shaohua sighed softly, stopping for a long time.
She came here with the immortal treasure map, and the formation spirit of the Kunlun Grand Array naturally did not obstruct her. Before the Immortal Pond, she saw another Immortal medicine, the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
Immortal medicine are spiritual and have the divine ability to seek good fortune and avoid disaster. They foresaw that a great calamity would come here in the future and wanted to leave early. The White Tiger Divine Medicine had already taken the first step, so the Ginseng Fruit Tree was naturally willing to follow her.
It was like getting one free after one gift.
The Ruthless Great Emperor didn't care about these two Immortal medicine. She only took the principle of transformation contained in the True Dragon Undying Elixir and the differentiation and unity of the Nine Marvelous Immortal medicine.
Coupled with her coming to Kunlun at that time to recall the tragic scene of her brother's passing, she had no mind to bother with other things.
But Shaohua indicated that more was better. Since the Immortal medicine actively came to her, there was absolutely no reason to refuse.
"What Heaven bestows, if not taken, will bring misfortune. I will gladly accept the good fortune of this Immortal Land."
Shaohua gazed around, observing. The Immortal Land was originally shaped like a placenta, but it was unfortunately shattered by the Ruthless Great Emperor's palm, turning into a pond.
At the bottom of the pond, a broken cauldron was buried.
Green Cauldron, Immortal-Making Cauldron, Ten Thousand Material Origin Cauldron—these were all its names.
"Ascension, huh? Relying on this so-called Immortal Land, this so-called Immortal-Making Cauldron, one cannot ascend to immortality. But I must forge my own path to Ascension!"
