Liang Yu secretly harbored a killing intent, extracted it from his primordial spirit, and sealed it within the Pagoda Creation Qiankun .
This was a method used by the Qing Emperor in later generations: once a killing intent was released, it would fall into slumber and persist in the world until its goal was achieved. Even if the main body died, it would continue to exist for a very long time before dissipating.
Liang Yu did this as a precaution. If he failed in a certain transformation, this killing intent would automatically seek out those people taken away by Cangshan Supreme. Once it discovered them harming the world, the killing intent would act to eliminate them. If not, this killing intent would likely completely disappear at most tens of thousands of years after his death.
The Heavenly River Divine Realm was deserted, but most of its various resources remained. Cangshan Supreme, to be safe, only took a very small portion of resources and his enlightenment prover treasure.
Most of the resources in the secret realm were not very useful to him, and Liang Yu was too lazy to take them. However, an Elixir of Immortality and some Eternal Blue Gold in the center of the Divine Realm were what Liang Yu currently needed.
What surprised Liang Yu was that this Immortal Elixir was actually the Humanoid Immortal Elixir of the Emperor Zun! This medicine could be a plant or a tree, and it was currently in tree form, with nine-colored divine light flowing around it, appearing quite mystical. Perhaps, in the original timeline, the Emperor Zun broke through this Life Forbidden Zones and obtained this Immortal Elixir.
Its destruction was probably due to being affected by the subsequent great battle after the Emperor's failed attempt to ascend to immortality with his entire sect. Xiaoyao Tianzun or other Forbidden Zone Supremes from the Reincarnation Sea might have obtained the main trunk of the Humanoid Immortal Elixir in that battle.
Although Ye Fan later possessed more than one Immortal Elixir and had thoroughly researched them, it was the rebirth process of this Humanoid Immortal Elixir that ultimately helped him live out his fourth life.
This perhaps indicated that for humans, this Immortal Elixir had extraordinary effects.
Although Liang Yu had just achieved enlightenment, and due to his Divine Body enlightenment, he could likely live for another twenty thousand years in this life, obtaining this Elixir of Immortality was indeed a stroke of great luck.
Perhaps, Liang Yu could also live out another life by studying this Immortal Elixir, just like Ye Fan, and with its fruit, he could live yet another life—a true two-for-one deal.
The Humanoid Immortal Elixir was quite impolite; it didn't wait for Liang Yu to speak before actively offering to follow him, even directly drilling into Liang Yu's body to nourish itself with his Life Spring.
With the divine medicine in hand, the feeling of having two lives was indeed good. Liang Yu moved his treasure pagoda, drawing the remaining few pieces of Eternal Blue Gold into it.
Ye Fan forged nine precious cauldrons from nine-colored immortal gold, which, when combined, directly transformed into an Immortal Artifact. He then fused the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron with these nine-colored immortal cauldrons to create a Supreme Immortal Artifact.
Although Liang Yu couldn't do that yet, it was better to be prepared. He would first accumulate more immortal gold; perhaps in the future, he could also create an ultimate ten-in-one supreme immortal pagoda. After all, these Eternal Blue Gold were already enough to refine a treasure pagoda.
This Heavenly River Divine Realm was an independent small world, located at the center of myriad stars, gathering all creation within it. But with gain comes loss; this also led to all the stars in this vast situation being dim, most unable to give birth to life, and those Ancient Stars with life found it extremely difficult to cultivate.
Liang Yu looked closely and found many traces of artificial intervention. Originally, a life Ancient Star should have formed here, but under the influence of these seven Supremes, not only was the Ancient Star gone, but even large areas of the surrounding galaxy had most of their essence absorbed.
He sighed, muttering, "Where it came from, let it return."
He employed heaven-defying means to restore the situation, reversing the flow of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, and the essence of the sun and moon. Even the Heavenly River Divine Realm itself disintegrated, turning into nourishment to feed these star clusters that had been exploited for countless years. A life star also rapidly formed from the ruins of this small world under his actions, and the various resources left in the Divine Realm were buried within the star by him.
Looking at the surging vitality in this starfield, Liang Yu casually inscribed the inheritances of the Divine Transformation Art, Dou Character Secret, Lin Character Secret, and Zhe Character Secret, leaving them for those with destiny to discover, then turned and left.
Next stop, Saint Spirit Ancestral Ground. At this time, the Saint Spirit Ancestral Ground was not yet on the Northern Dipper Star, nor was it called the Heaven-Severing Mountain Range.
The five continents refined by Wuliang Tianzun from the Chaos Body Wang Bo's body had not yet fully stabilized, and the Northern Dipper Star had not yet formed a habitable environment. Whether there were living beings on the Northern Dipper Star before this is unknown, but after this, it would be the Primordial Era before various races began large-scale migration and settlement.
Currently, the Northern Dipper was not only uninhabited, but even the Life Forbidden Zones had not yet landed on the Northern Dipper. After all, the Northern Dipper Immortal Ascension Road was a matter of the Post-Desolate Era; this was the Mythological Era. Therefore, the Saint Spirit Ancestral Ground was no exception; it was currently located on the Xuanqiong Ancient Star.
As for its name, the Heaven-Severing Mountain Range got its name because the peaks that were as high as the heavens were leveled by the Ruthless Great Emperor's sword. Before that, this ancestral ground was actually called Xuanqiong Mountain.
Liang Yu arrived outside the Xuanqiong Ancient Star, where the Saint Spirits within faced him as if facing a great enemy, each one unreservedly revealing their aura, seemingly demonstrating their power.
"Hmm, there are still three Saint Spirits who have achieved enlightenment? That's strange, why are there so many more Enlightenment Provers in this Mythological Era than I imagined?"
Liang Yu stroked his chin, muttering to himself.
In later generations, there were only a few Saint Spirits who achieved enlightenment: one Stone Emperor, one Spirit Emperor, and one Immortal Tears Green Gold Emperor, or perhaps the one killed by the Ruthless Great Emperor.
But now, including Purple Zenith who died by his hand, there were four who were Forbidden Land Supremes alone. If you add those who died of old age and those killed by other Enlightenment Provers, there might be even more.
He originally thought there wouldn't be that many Supremes in the Mythological Era, but from the current situation, it was quite the opposite. This period not only had Ancient Emperor left over from before the Mythological Era but also accumulated millions of years of the Mythological Era. The total number of Forbidden Land Supremes in the entire universe was probably unimaginable.
In later generations, almost no Supremes from before the Mythological Era remained in the major Life Forbidden Zones, and even Ancient Emperor from the Mythological Era were not very numerous.
The reasons for this were, firstly, the issue of lifespan; secondly, the casualties during the attempt to enter the Immortal Ascension Road; and thirdly, the purges by successive Enlightenment Provers.
Undoubtedly, the Emperor and Undying Heavenly Emperor contributed greatly to this. The former annihilated many Forbidden Zone Supremes and also led an attempt for the entire sect to ascend to immortality, killing several more after its failure; the latter not only pacified the Life Forbidden Zones during his reign but also triggered the Primordial Divine War, which claimed another batch.
But now, these events had not yet occurred, so the number of Supremes was somewhat beyond Liang Yu's imagination.
Liang Yu gazed with divine light and found that among the remaining three enlightened Saint Spirits, one was a sentient Huangxue Scarlet Gold, one was a Stone Human Saint Spirit, and another was actually an incomplete Saint Spirit who achieved enlightenment by mending his innate flaws using the Mending Heaven Skill.
Liang Yu recalled the Saint Spirit who was killed by Daode Tianzun and sealed in an ancient well to brew wine; he carried the inheritance of the Mending Heaven Skill, which could allow prematurely born Saint Spirits to compensate for their innate deficiencies. It was evident that in the current Mythological Era, the Mending Heaven Skill of the Saint Spirit race had not yet been lost. Perhaps the later great battles and the Ruthless Great Emperor's leveling of the Saint Spirit Ancestral Ground collectively led to the complete discontinuation of the Mending Heaven Skill.
Undoubtedly, the one who was a sentient Huangxue Scarlet Gold was the strongest. However, he did not live out a second life like the Immortal Tears Green Gold Emperor encountered by Ye Fan in later generations, reaching Heavenly Emperor level combat power.
But even so, this immortal gold body was extremely terrifying; even the current Liang Yu would likely find it difficult to gain an advantage.
Aside from these three enlightened Saint Spirits, there were also six Great Perfection Saint Spirits equivalent to alternative enlightenment. Saint Spirits below that level were not worth mentioning.
Liang Yu looked at these nine surging auras, expressionlessly took out the Desolate Pagoda, suspended it above his head, and then stared at the Xuanqiong Ancient Star, a hint of killing intent seeping out.
The auras of the nine Saint Spirits immediately stagnated, completely suppressed by Liang Yu.
The Phoenix Blood Red Gold Supreme sighed helplessly and said loudly, "Heavenly Lord has come here, and we failed to greet him from afar. We apologize for the discourtesy. We hope Heavenly Lord will forgive us."
The auras of the other Saint Spirits also dissipated accordingly; after all, they did not intend to fight, but merely to display some strength to prevent Liang Yu from being too excessive.
How could they deal with a contemporary Heavenly Lord who was nearly Heavenly Emperor level, clearly stronger than an average Enlightenment Prover, and also wielded the Desolate Pagoda, one of only two Immortal Artifacts in the world? If there were no external interference, even if Liang Yu attacked forcefully, they would be helpless. As long as the demands weren't too outrageous, they could only endure it.
After all, the Saint Spirit race, apart from anything else, certainly did not lack things like immortal gold and divine liquid.
After the Heavenly River Divine Realm, he could now farm gold from the Saint Spirit Ancestral Ground. Liang Yu found it hard to suppress the corners of his mouth.
