The Crimson Flame Sky Pearl was a fine treasure.
It was the companion item of the fifteenth-ranked exotic flame, the “Falling Star Flame.”
No matter which exotic flame it was refined into, it could rapidly boost that flame’s power.
Naturally, the best use for it now was to feed it to the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Flame for maximum effect.
As for the broken phoenix sword, though incomplete, even a brief test revealed that it was at least a saint-grade spiritual weapon.
The artifact spirit inside appeared to still be in a deep slumber.
Shen Mo discovered that using this weapon required both ice and fire elemental spiritual energy.
The person best suited for it was clearly Murong Yue.
It happened that, in the future, if he were to leave Guzhou Heaven and Earth, Murong Yue would need something to defend herself.
This phoenix sword was perfect for her.
As for the golden page—
Shen Mo couldn’t determine what it was.
Even the will of Tiandao had never seen it and could not make a judgment.
However, since it was related to a true dragon, it was certainly of great value.
Someday in the future, it might prove useful.
Shen Mo placed it deep within his storage ring.
“Sui Xing, cultivate well here.”
Before leaving, Shen Mo gave a few more instructions.
“Don’t worry, Dad!” Sui Xing responded enthusiastically.
Only then did Shen Mo depart.
Time passed swiftly. In the blink of an eye, five years had gone by.
Beyond Guzhou Heaven and Earth, within the chaotic void currents—
A solitary figure stood tall, facing the force of the currents head-on.
In this moment, he was like a timeworn pine rooted deep in stone cliffs.
No matter which way the winds blew, he remained unmoved.
Though the void power occasionally eroded and damaged his skin, his powerful physique allowed it to regenerate quickly.
Shen Mo looked inward at his divine palace and found that a third strand of void power had appeared. A satisfied smile rose on his face.
“At last, it’s done.”
He exhaled a long breath.
The path of comprehending void power was a long and arduous one.
Even someone as exceptionally gifted and perceptive as he was had taken five full years to adapt to the chaotic void currents.
Of course, his body could still only endure the gentler void currents.
If he were to be caught in those violent, turbulent currents, he would suffer serious damage.
Over these years of tempering himself in the void, Shen Mo had come to realize more and more that the void extended far beyond what he could currently perceive.
The truly deadly and desperate zones had yet to bare their fangs.
Unless one was like Shijie—a ferocious beast born and raised within the void—one must always hold reverence for the void.
Arrogance would lead to death.
Just as Shen Mo was preparing to return to Guzhou Heaven and Earth to bid farewell to friends and family—
He suddenly caught a flash of light ahead.
His interest was immediately piqued.
At the Nirvana realm, one could briefly teleport through the void by utilizing void power in their movement techniques.
This allowed one to greatly increase the distance traveled in an instant.
During such teleportation, the cultivator would appear within the void itself.
Of course, if one were unlucky and ended up in violent void turbulence during that process, they would most likely be annihilated.
So, using void-powered movement techniques was often a last resort to escape death.
It wasn’t something to be used lightly.
Shen Mo had tested this method many times, and so he immediately recognized the glow just now as the light produced by someone using void-powered movement.
“To think I’d run into another cultivator out here. Let’s take a look.”
Shen Mo piloted the void shuttle and followed after it.
The light had vanished only moments earlier.
Tracking its path, he soon discovered a void vortex.
After a brief moment of thought, he stepped inside.
