"That Void Shuttle..."
Shen Mo muttered thoughtfully and retrieved the Void Shuttle from his storage ring.
Obtaining this treasure had not been easy.
Ye Yan had stumbled upon a spatial vortex by accident.
Right when he discovered it, the Void Shuttle had been spat out from within.
It didn’t seem like a naturally formed treasure, nor an artifact left behind by some predecessor. It had simply been there, waiting for a destined person to claim it.
Shen Mo had to wait for the right moment to intercept the Void Shuttle.
Thus, he hadn’t been in closed-door cultivation for the entire two years.
First, he arranged through Zhu Xuanji for Ye Yan to undertake a task to search for rare materials, deliberately sending him away.
Then he disguised himself and left the outpost, using the Qiankun Blood Spirit Light to locate the spatial vortex.
He waited by the side for several days before the vortex finally spat out the Void Shuttle.
At that time, pressed for time, he hadn’t inspected it too carefully and simply tossed it into his storage ring before returning to his courtyard to continue cultivation.
Now, as he looked at the Void Shuttle again, it looked utterly pitiful.
It wasn’t exactly gleaming and pristine—in fact, it was completely battered and worn.
What had it gone through to end up in such a ruined state?
"The Void Shuttle must be able to withstand the corrosion of void forces. It must have been eroded in the chaotic void currents for far too long to end up ."
"To repair it, I’ll need extremely rare materials."
"It definitely won’t be possible in the short term. I’ll need to keep an eye out."
Shen Mo knew that the Heavenly Dao Treasury had such materials.
However, they were all at least high-grade heavenly rank.
The military merits required were terrifyingly high.
If he could find the materials himself, that would be best. If not, he could consider exchanging for them later.
"The final thing to do is break through to the Nirvana Realm."
"For thousands of years across the ten Demon Suppression Fortresses, not a single lifeform has reached Nirvana."
"Even records of the last person to shatter the void and ascend have been lost..."
Shen Mo rubbed his forehead.
This was what gave him the biggest headache.
The Divine Thunder Demon Suppression Scripture had already reached its peak.
Fortunately, he still had the Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Strength.
He couldn’t enter Nirvana through spiritual power.
He had to attempt it through blood and vitality.
"Currently, the Divine Elephant Prison-Suppressing Strength has reached the seventh level. Once I master the eighth and unlock 840 million giant elephant particles, I should be able to step into Nirvana."
Shen Mo knew nothing about the Nirvana Realm.
But one thing was certain—if he didn’t step into it, he would undoubtedly die at the hands of the Undying Demon Emperor.
"Time waits for no one. Let’s begin."
Shen Mo took out various rare materials from his storage ring.
Earth Mother Crimson Ancient Syrup, Blackwater Profound Essence, Dragon Bone Blood Marrow...
Most of these treasures had been collected by Shen Mo over time, and some were offerings from his Demon Suppression Guards.
Only a small portion had been exchanged from the Heavenly Dao Treasury.
Now was the time to use them.
Inside his body, the roars of giant elephants erupted.
As if they sought to trample the stars and shake down the Milky Way.
They fought for supremacy against countless ancient exotic species and primeval ferocious beasts.
At the ninth level of the Demon Suppression Sea.
Beneath the black stone throne that enshrined the Undying Demon Emperor’s torso—
There lay a stone coffin.
The coffin and the throne were one.
Even the oldest demon, An Cang, did not know of this coffin’s existence.
Inside the stone coffin was a handsome, fully bare man.
Beneath him were numerous grooves filled with flowing blood of the Great Demon Emperor.
Over the years, he had completely fused with the Undying Demon Emperor’s body.
He had slept for thousands of years.
Now, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Who am I... let me think..."
"Right, my name is Ji Xuan, the first Human Emperor of Jing Nation..."
