Supreme Demon God

"Crack, crack..."

The phoenix statue suddenly shattered.

When the statue turned into a pile of powder, the weird power that confined Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness also disappeared.

At the same time, there was a bit more mysterious aura on Ming Huang's body, and a phoenix phantom appeared behind Ming Huang, flickered, and then submerged into Ming Huang's body.

Ming Huang's pupils flickered, and there seemed to be two colorful feathers hidden in his eyes, but soon the two feathers disappeared, and his pupil color immediately returned to normal.

"Master," Ming Huang turned and looked at Mo Xiu, showing a trace of sorrow.

This should have been affected by Profound Feather War Phoenix's emotions during his lifetime.

Mo Xiu didn't know why the Profound Feather War Phoenix had to leave the inheritance, or why the Profound Feather War Phoenix's inheritance was not in the Realm of Heaven, but it didn't matter, since it was already taken by Ming Huang.

He lightly nodded to Ming Huang, and extended his Divine Consciousness, and soon couldn't help but let out a horror.

"Master, what's the matter?" Ming Huang asked in confusion.

In his impression, Mo Xiu had always looked like a very composed person. But he actually saw Mo Xiu letting out this expression now.

Mo Xiu was surprised because this place was not only the inheritance of Profound Feather War Phoenix, but there were also some good things nearby, especially Sky Origin Fruit.

Sky Origin Fruit was a treasure that could make the foundation stable and solid. People like Mo Xiu, who had paid special attention to polishing the foundation from the beginning of cultivation, didn't need Sky Origin Fruit at all.

However, some people advanced fast in cultivation and didn't know how to stop to polish their foundation and consolidate their cultivation base.

They only knew that they could make breakthroughs. However, their foundation would become unstable over time, and it was easy to get into trouble or even burst into death.

Of course, they might not get into trouble, but once the foundation collapsed, their cultivation base would dwell in the same realm or even regress.

When Mo Xiu obtained the Everlasting Demon Art, he didn't know that there was such a kind of attention to cultivation, and he could not wait to break through five or six realms overnight. With that, his foundation had become unstable, and he almost burst to death.

If he hadn't found Sky Origin Fruit at a great price later, there might not have been the Everlasting Demon King who would play rampant in the Realm of Heaven at all.

In any case, Sky Origin Fruit was a good thing. Even if Mo Xiu didn't need it in a sense, it didn't mean that he couldn't take it and use it to his best advantage.

As long as there was a Sky Origin Fruit, he could unscrupulously improve his cultivation until his foundation was about to collapse, and use Sky Origin Fruit to stabilize his foundation so that he could save a lot of time to polish the foundation.

Thinking of this, he said to Ming Yan and Ming Huang, "You stay here for a while. I will return soon."

After finishing speaking, he quickly flew in the direction where Sky Origin Fruit was.

Sky Origin Fruit was quite far away from the phoenix stone platform, but this distance was only relative.

In the blink of an eye, Mo Xiu had already appeared in front of the Sky Origin Tree.

The Sky Origin Tree was not tall, it looked about the size of a peach tree. Its leaves were gray. Besides, there were also patches of golden petals, but there was only one Sky Origin Fruit on the tree.

Only one Sky Origin Fruit could grow on one Sky Origin Tree. If there were two or three Sky Origin Fruits, Mo Xiu might suspect that it was a bit abnormal.

Not to mention the Sky Origin Tree, it took at least a thousand years for the Sky Origin Fruit to grow to maturity, and the fruit tree must survive in special soil, otherwise, it would wither easily.

The Sky Origin Fruit on the tree had matured for a long time, so this Sky Origin Tree existed at least a thousand years ago.

A thousand years ago, the Profound Feather War Phoenix had not fallen, and it was estimated that at that time he did not intend to leave the inheritance, so Mo Xiu didn't know whether this Sky Origin Tree was something of the Profound Feather War Phoenix or it existed in this place directly.

The soil in this place was indeed quite special. Perhaps the inheritance of Profound Feather War Phoenix appeared in this place because of this place and the Sky Origin Tree here.

Anyway, now that Mo Xiu found this Sky Origin Tree, the Sky Origin Fruit on the tree naturally belonged to Mo Xiu.

He took out a jade box, raised his hand, and touched the void. The Sky Origin Fruit fell off the tree and slowly fell into the jade box.

It was a white fruit, but even if it had fallen off the tree, the surface of the fruit was still filled with Spiritual Energy. With a glance, one knew right away that it was not ordinary.

When the only one Sky Origin Fruit was picked, the golden petals on the Sky Origin Tree also withered and scattered to the ground, but the tree did not wither due to it.

Compared with the Sky Origin Fruit, the Sky Origin Tree might be more precious. After all, after the fruit was picked, as long as one or two thousand years had passed, the new Sky Origin Fruit would grow and mature over time.

In other words, as long as it could be used well, the value of a Sky Origin Tree was equivalent to the value of several Sky Origin Fruit.

One or two thousand years later, Mo Xiu had already left the Profound Sky Continent, and might even have reached the height of the previous Everlasting Demon King, so he shouldn't need the Sky Origin Fruit by then.

Since Sky Origin Fruit was not needed, there was no need to uproot the Sky Origin Tree, and there was no need to transplant it to other places.

In addition to Sky Origin Fruit, there was another good thing nearby.

Mo Xiu's figure flashed and came under a big tree.

This was a very peculiar tree with many branches, but not a single leaf was visible. However, this tree was still very stubborn and showed no signs of wilting.

After Mo Xiu cut this big tree from the middle, there was a short section of light shining with jasper color, like jade. This was a treasure named Heavenly Jade Spirit Wood.

Heavenly Jade Spirit Wood, this was one of the three things that could resurrect the dead.

The other two were Shadow Soul Orb and Nine Turns Resurrection Grass.

Mo Xiu had already obtained these two things. One was obtained after killing the Yin Ghost King in the Dark Mist Mountain near Sun Martial City, and the other was obtained from the Alchemy League.

With the Shadow Soul Orb and Nine Turns Resurrection Grass, plus today's Heavenly Jade Spirit Wood, even if someone was burned into ashes, as long as his soul had not entered the underworld or was sucked in by the Gate of Reincarnation, then Mo Xiu could save the other party.

Mo Xiu now had no one who needed him to save. People who had something to do with him were living well now. It could even be said that everyone except Xing Yuyan was under his protection.

Xing Yuyan should have the ability to protect herself. Even if she was in the Sacred Saintess Sect, there should be no problems, so these three things probably wouldn't have the opportunity to come in handy.

But no one could guarantee this kind of thing. Therefore, it wouldn't hurt to collect these things.

After some harvesting, Mo Xiu returned to Ming Yan and Ming Huang, and said calmly, "Let's go back to Gourd Village."

...

Night fell.

Mo Xiu entered the room prepared for him, placed a seal, sat down cross-legged, and started running Universe's Origin Heavenly Art.

It had been a while since the last breakthrough, and now his foundation was solid enough to break through to the Great Perfection-stage of the Sea Core Realm.

However, with Sky Origin Fruit, he didn't need to polish the foundation patiently this time, and he didn't need to spend a lot of time to stabilize the cultivation base either.

He could completely upgrade the cultivation base in one go, to a situation where the foundation could not bear the impending collapse.

The Spiritual Energy from all around gathered frantically, entered his body, transformed into True Energy, and stored in his Dantian.

An obvious benefit of practicing Universe's Origin Heavenly Art was that he didn't need to consider the amount of Spiritual Energy, and every time he cultivated, he didn't need to set up the Spirit Gathering Array.

In the past, Mo Xiu had deliberately suppressed his cultivation base and didn't want to disturb the surrounding people.

But this time, Mo Xiu didn't need to deliberately suppress it and didn't care about whether it would disturb the people around him. He just absorbed the Spiritual Energy wildly.

When this happened, the amount of Spiritual Energy that gathered in Gourd Village could be described as "horror". In but a moment, the Spiritual Energy of Gourd Village was so strong to the point that it almost condensed into substance.

People living in Gourd Village were weak villagers, but every family in this small mountain village was also a cultivator, so they could feel that the aura in the village has become very strong.

After experiencing the initial stupefaction, everyone was overjoyed.

They didn't care about the cause of it, the Spiritual Energy becoming so strong was a great thing for them. With such a rare opportunity, how could they not seize the opportunity to practice well?

Perhaps it was because the movement caused by Mo Xiu was too great. Whether it was ordinary beasts, spirit beasts, or monster beasts in Sky Gem Mountain, they were attracted to the vicinity of Gourd Village.

However, they could come only near the Gourd Village. There were barriers on the edge of the Gourd Village, which were mainly used to guard against these beasts or monsters.

Just when the beasts and monsters were screaming, a group of outsiders broke into the barrier easily and entered the village.

"The Spiritual Energy of this village is so strong. What's happening?"

"The Spiritual Energy in the surrounding suddenly became thinner, but the Spiritual Energy in this village is so strong… it must be related to Mo Xiu, right?" 

"I also think so. Other than Mo Xiu, no one should have the ability to gather the Spiritual Energy nearby."

"What should we do now? Should we control this village, threaten Mo Xiu with people in the village, and force Mo Xiu to commit suicide?"

"Oh, no need. He could run away before, but he can't escape this time. We can search from house to house and kill everyone until we see Mo Xiu."

"This time, Mo Xiu is dead for sure!"

...

The crowd talked in a low voice for a while before they quickly moved into action.
