A massive power erupted, and Han Xuanji fully circulated the Xuantian Chaos Primordial Scripture, not daring to stop.
It was only because of his strong Foundation, now possessing the body of a Chaos Demon God; otherwise, being blown apart would not have been impossible.
Of course, such an existence, even if blown apart, would not truly die.
Han Xuanji closed his eyes, refining this power.
Time flowed by.
For his current Realm, a single session of secluded cultivation could even mean ten thousand years had passed.
But fortunately, Han Xuanji was different; after only a hundred years, he slowly opened his eyes.
The vast, ocean-like power of Reincarnation Karma was finally completely absorbed.
Comfortable!
His Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal Realm advanced a great step forward.
Han Xuanji had now reached the fifth layer of the Celestial Golden Immortal, breaking through four stages directly, bypassing the Early Stage and arriving at the Middle Stage.
Even Han Xuanji himself had not anticipated such progress.
One must know that this was only after digesting two rewards, with two more rewards yet to be used.
"It seems these simulation rewards are not necessarily worse than sign-in rewards."
Han Xuanji pondered silently.
After all, an eight-star sign-in location was extremely rare.
And for simulations, one only needed to find the right person.
Of course, the simulation function also had many drawbacks, the two main ones being:
The number of simulations was limited, and one could not continuously simulate the same person. Moreover, people who had been simulated, like Jiang Hao and Su Ming, could not be simulated again for a short period. Depending on the consumption of simulation attempts, someone like Su Ming would have to wait five thousand years before being simulated again.
As he pondered, Han Xuanji suddenly felt something; a movement came from within the yuanshi banner, a certain existence within it sending him a signal.
"I almost forgot about you."
Han Xuanji immediately remembered that in the Guixu Land, he had used the yuanshi banner to suppress a group of Dao-Devouring Worms.
These Dao-Devouring Worms were not ordinary beings; they could devour the power of the Great Dao. The Dao-Devouring Ancestor Worm was actually not weak; existences below the Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal Level had no way to deal with it.
If it had been before stepping into the Primordial Chaos, he might have needed to expend some effort, but now... with a thought from Han Xuanji, a Divine Thought entered the yuanshi banner.
The Dao-Devouring Worms, which had originally been ferociously rampant, were now listlessly curled up in a corner, their aura extremely low.
Especially that Dao-Devouring Ancestor Worm, an existence at the Hunyuan Level, which was originally fearless, now actually squeezed out a pitiful and pleading look, with intermittent but clear pleas for mercy and submission constantly coming from its Divine Thought.
It could feel the vast, abyssal aura emanating from Han Xuanji at this moment, coupled with being constantly affected by the power of this Primordial Chaos supreme treasure within the yuanshi banner, it could not muster any thought of resistance.
"You know how to adapt."
Han Xuanji spoke indifferently.
"Since you are willing to surrender, I will spare your lives."
With a mere thought from Han Xuanji, tiny imprints were placed upon all the worm groups.
"Squeak..."
The worm groups emitted faint, submissive chirps, without any resistance.
After the imprints merged, it was as if an indelible mark had been placed deep within their Origin; as long as the imprint remained, they would be absolutely loyal to Han Xuanji's commands, unable to produce any act of defiance.
"From now on, you shall be my 'Dao-Devouring Guards,' residing within the banner, awaiting orders."
Han Xuanji's mind stirred, and the yuanshi banner gently trembled, the suppressive force within the banner vanishing.
The Dao-Devouring Worms were no longer fierce creatures needing suppression, but had become a sharp blade in his hands.
After dealing with this minor matter, Han Xuanji's expression remained calm, his gaze once again falling upon the two unused simulation rewards.
His cultivation had reached the fifth layer of Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal, and his Foundation was even more profound; it was time to begin refining the [reincarnation demon god's origin] and the [Primordial Power of the Immortal Realms Reincarnation].
The [reincarnation demon god's origin] was Su Ming's demon god origin, and the power contained within it was enough to create a Primordial Chaos expert.
And that [Primordial Power of the Immortal Realms Reincarnation] was also not simple; it was the Origin power of the Immortal Realm. If the previous Karma power was a gift from the Immortal Realm's Heavenly Dao, then this was the fundamental essence of the Heavenly Dao. If someone were to seize this power, the Immortal Realm could very likely collapse as a result.
Han Xuanji sat cross-legged on the lotus platform, his mind focused, first locking his target onto the [reincarnation demon god's origin].
Its appearance was similar to the demon god origin he had previously signed for, but its essence was higher, containing the power of the Great Dao of Reincarnation.
Perhaps because Han Xuanji was now also a Chaos Demon God, and even shared the same Origin with the power of this demon god origin, its refinement was even smoother than expected... several decades passed in a flash.
Han Xuanji's cultivation steadily improved. After completely refining and absorbing the power from the [reincarnation demon god's origin], his Realm reached the sixth layer of Primordial Chaos.
"This is really good. If I can maintain this speed, I feel like being an Emperor of Heaven or Demon Ancestor won't be a problem."
Han Xuanji opened his eyes, feeling pleased.
There were still thousands of years until the Demon Race's forceful invasion of the Immortal Domain, and even longer until the return of the Emperor of Heaven and the war between Immortals and Demons.
At this speed, he felt that achieving the Limitless Primordial would not be difficult.
This was not him being arrogant, but the confidence the System brought him.
By then, not to mention signing in at the Dao-infused Land, just hundreds of simulation attempts would be enough to make him take another big step forward.
"What I need to do now is to stay stable and not cause too many variables, lest the Demon Race attack the Immortal Domain ahead of time, saving me from having to flee in a sorry state as in the simulation."
Han Xuanji pondered silently.
Even if he were to leave, it would be because he wanted to, not because others chased him away!
Otherwise, what was the point of this cultivation?
Han Xuanji stopped thinking further and looked outside the pavilion. A tall figure, yet bearing a heavy aura, had been standing outside Han Xuanji's cultivation pavilion for a long time; it was his eldest Disciple, Li Taiqing.
Although Li Taiqing was his eldest Disciple, compared to the others in Myriad Phenomena Garden, his Aptitude was among the worst.
At most, he was on par with Xiaobai, the difference being that Li Taiqing had the motivation to become stronger and was more diligent. He never put on airs during his daily cultivation just because of his Senior Brother position.
At this moment, although Li Taiqing appeared as usual on the surface, with a gentle demeanor, a knot of unresolved melancholy was condensed between his brows.
"Come in."
Hearing Han Xuanji's voice, a look of joy flashed in Li Taiqing's eyes. He immediately rose and entered the pavilion.
He knelt outside Han Xuanji's secluded cultivation chamber, performing a respectful grand bow, not daring to show the slightest dissatisfaction.
Even though Han Xuanji had left him waiting outside for a long time.
His aura had now reached the Late Stage of Golden Immortal, not far from Grand Unity. In fact, compared to the Prodigies of the Immortal Realm outside, his talent could be considered first-rate. However, the Myriad Phenomena Garden was filled with people of great Luck: there was a Human Emperor Candidate, a Chaos Demon God, a future Heavenly Court War God... and even an ancient Demon God.
Most importantly, among those who Ascended later than him, Lu Fan was already a Human Emperor Candidate, and his prestige was unmatched, making him very likely to become the Human Emperor.
As for Lin Potian and Nangong Wenjian, after arriving in the Upper Realm, they also continuously encountered Opportunities and firmly walked the path they believed in. Han Xuanji often praised them for having found their own Dao.
