The Protagonists' Chat Group: Beyond the Boundaries

Shi Jian took out the willow leaf that Liu Shen had given him before his departure. He then established a channel of communication with Liu Shen through the willow leaf. The Divine Might on the willow leaf began to revive.

"You found the Kunpeng Precious Technique?" Liu Shen's voice came from the willow leaf, and then her will descended into this world.

"I have found the Kunpeng's nest. There are weapons left by him during his lifetime here, but there are Restrictions, and I cannot take these weapons…" Shi Jian spoke to Liu Shen, stating his predicament.

"Kunpeng's nest…" Liu Shen sensed the surrounding environment and spoke with a hint of melancholy. She felt the Kunpeng's aura here.

"Is that Desolate Sky Halberd?" Liu Shen looked at the weapons at the highest point of the altar. Especially the broken halberd.

As a weapon that followed Kunpeng throughout his life and was invincible, Liu Shen was somewhat familiar with the Desolate Sky Halberd. This was a peerless Divine Weapon, indestructible, capable of slaying gods and demons, breaking through anything!

In the Primordial Era, it struck fear into the hearts of powerful beings of all races. Anyone who heard the words Desolate Sky Halberd would gasp in cold air and tremble with fear.

Now, this weapon was broken into three pieces. Even the Desolate Sky Halberd was shattered, which was enough to imagine how terrifying the battle at that time was. No wonder Kunpeng fell.

"Kunpeng has fallen. He will not make things difficult for future generations. This is a Legacy he specifically left for them."

"If you comprehend the Kunpeng Precious Technique, you will gain the recognition of the Desolate Sky Halberd!" With Liu Shen's strength, he could forcibly break the Restrictions here and allow Shi Jian to obtain the weapons.

However, there was no need to do so. Shi Jian only needed to comprehend the Kunpeng Precious Technique and become Kunpeng's successor… The Desolate Sky Halberd would naturally recognize him.

"Do I only need to comprehend the Kunpeng Precious Technique?" Shi Jian was a little surprised; this was something not mentioned in the original work. This was rather simple.

Shi Jian looked towards a cave below the altar. This was the Demon Transformation Cave. The entrance was very deep, penetrating the bottom of the sea. From the darkness, mournful cries echoed, like ancient wronged souls weeping.

Various phantoms emerged within, their shrill screams and flailing limbs creating a scene like a hellish purgatory. According to legend, the Demon Transformation Cave imprisoned all the enemies Kunpeng had slain in the past.

"You two wait here first. Liu Shen and I will enter the Demon Transformation Cave to comprehend the Kunpeng Precious Technique!" Shi Jian said to Yang Qi and Xiao Yan, then jumped into the Demon Transformation Cave.

After all, Yang Qi and Xiao Yan did not cultivate runes. Even if they went down and saw the Kunpeng Precious Technique, they wouldn't be able to comprehend anything. It was better to wait above.

Once he comprehended the Kunpeng Precious Technique, he could transmit it to the group, and they could learn it as well.

"All right!" Yang Qi and the other nodded.

Immediately, Shi Jian no longer hesitated and directly jumped into the entrance of the Demon Transformation Cave with Liu Shen's willow leaf. After a long while, he landed steadily.

The bottom of the Demon Transformation Cave was somewhat bright, a ghostly green, like the eyes of a ghost. Figures appeared, and occasionally, roars of giant Vicious Beasts could be heard.

Phoenix, Pixiu, Sky-Swallowing Sparrow, Azure Luan… Various phantoms of Primordial Vicious Beasts appeared. These were powerful beings who had died at Kunpeng's hands. They were once so powerful that they made heaven and earth tremble.

However, even such powerful beings were ruthlessly suppressed by Kunpeng. Now, only their lingering obsessions remained, wailing like ghosts here!

But they were just phantoms of some Primordial Vicious Beasts, so Shi Jian naturally would not fear them. He walked continuously forward into the cave, sensing the aura of these terrifying phantoms as he went.

These phantoms were lifelike, even their auras permeated, as if they had crossed time and space from the Primordial Era! They bore some resemblance to the "Battle Diagrams" recorded in the Original True Understanding.

Observing these phantoms could help Shi Jian better understand the Battle Diagrams in the Original True Understanding. Soon, Shi Jian reached the end of the Demon Transformation Cave.

A pair of stone doors blocked his path. With a gentle push, the stone doors opened instantly, revealing densely packed, flickering runes. The aura here was different from the eerie aura outside. It was as if one had ascended to the God Realm, radiating brilliant light!

As soon as Shi Jian entered, he felt a powerful pressure. If an ordinary Spiritual Realm cultivator came here, they would probably be crushed to pieces, their bones shattered and internal organs bleeding, in the blink of an eye.

Kunpeng left his Kunpeng's nest to allow people to inherit the Kunpeng Precious Technique. But not everyone was qualified to inherit the Kunpeng Precious Technique.

Only those who emulated Kunpeng's cultivation path in his youth, achieving Physical Body Spiritual Realm and recreating the Extreme Realm of the True Self, were qualified to comprehend the Kunpeng Precious Technique.

Shi Jian had clearly far exceeded this standard. He surveyed the surrounding environment. This was a grand stone chamber, with a blood pool in the center. The blood there was resplendent, and golden light occasionally emanated from the blood pool. The terrifying runes even distorted space.

"Kunpeng Precious Technique…" Liu Shen spoke softly. Such terrifying runes were naturally the legendary Kunpeng Precious Technique.

"The runes of the Kunpeng Precious Technique have all been refined into this blood pool. At critical moments, they can reappear and reassemble. You should comprehend it here; don't miss this opportunity!" Liu Shen revealed the profound mystery of this place.

The Kunpeng Precious Technique was hidden within the blood pool. With a whoosh, thousands of runes surged from the blood pool, arranged in a special formation.

All the runes materialized, then rapidly combined to form a Kunpeng! This was a Supreme ancient bird composed of symbols, seemingly alive, looking down on all ages.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh… These runes dispersed once more, then reassembled and sank back into the brilliant blood pool. Transforming into a large fish.

Shi Jian carefully observed these changes, then continuously deduced and imitated them. It felt like the blink of an eye, yet also like ten thousand years had passed!

Shi Jian was completely immersed in the rune evolution of the Kunpeng Precious Technique. Liu Shen, who was beside him, was the same. Liu Shen was also comprehending the Kunpeng Precious Technique…

The Kunpeng Precious Technique was extremely powerful, containing the Profound Truths of all heavens. Even Shi Jian found it difficult to comprehend all of it in a short period.

He was engrossed in his Cultivation, his spirit and will completely submerged in the runes, sensing the Profound Truths of these runes. Gradually, he gained some insights, and his whole body emitted a divine light!

As if sensing something, the Kunpeng runes began to break free from the blood pool's restraints and flew towards him. These runes merged into his body, fusing with him, making it easier for him to comprehend more.

The Kunpeng Precious Technique was too complex, and the changes in its runes were too numerous. A roar of heaven and earth resounded, and the Kunpeng in the Void Realm completely exploded. All the runes entered his body and reassembled on him.

Golden light was resplendent and incredibly dazzling. Finally, these runes transformed into golden patterns on his body! Shi Jian obtained the complete Legacy of the Kunpeng Precious Technique.

His entire being almost transformed into a Kunpeng, about to spread its wings and soar to the Nine Heavens, flying beyond the domain… A Supreme aura permeated his body.

Shi Jian not only obtained the Kunpeng Precious Technique but also gained a glimpse of the Primordial Era through Kunpeng.

"You've comprehended the Kunpeng Precious Technique?" Liu Shen's surprised voice rang in Shi Jian's ears.

"I haven't fully comprehended it yet, but it's almost there…" Shi Jian opened his eyes and then spoke. All the Kunpeng Precious Technique transformed into a single character inscribed in his mind. He had already learned the Kunpeng Precious Technique.

"That's good. This blood pool is formed from a drop of Kunpeng's True Blood. Refine it; it will be beneficial for your Cultivation!" Liu Shen suggested that there was a drop of Kunpeng's True Blood in the blood pool.

How precious was Kunpeng's True Blood? Even after a long period of purification, a large portion of its Divine Might had been lost… But it was still a Supreme treasure. Even gods would fight over it.

Upon hearing this, Shi Jian immediately activated the Hell Furnace and then devoured all the essence from the blood pool.

Liu Shen was somewhat surprised when she saw his Hell Furnace: "Is this also a technique from another world? Can it directly refine True Blood? Will such a technique have any hidden dangers?"

Under normal circumstances, techniques that directly refine energy usually have hidden dangers. They can lead to an unstable Foundation and superficial Cultivation.

"Hell Furnace, condense the Hell Furnace within the body. It can refine everything, devour everything, extensively plundering vital essence, Heaven and Earth Origin Qi, and even the essence of the sun and moon, the power of stars…"

"All kinds of essences are refined through the Furnace, then transformed into the Origin of life… No hidden dangers!" Shi Jian replied.

Liu Shen was completely astonished: "How can there be such a terrifying method in this world? It can devour and refine all things without any side effects…"

Liu Shen's expression grew serious. This was already an absolutely invincible method.

"Even if there are no future troubles in cultivation, you should pay attention to your Heart-Nature cultivation when practicing this method. Constantly devouring Origin Qi and life essence… there's a high chance you could fall into depravity because of it." Liu Shen solemnly warned Shi Jian.

This cultivation method, named Hell Furnace, was too terrifying. It could devour and refine everything without any future troubles.

As long as there were resources, one could continuously grow stronger, without any Bottleneck… This was too horrifying.

If Shi Jian became engrossed in it, he might inevitably transform into a world-shaking Demon. If someone tried to kill him today, he would kill them and refine their corpse.

If someone insulted him tomorrow, he would kill them and refine their corpse. If someone glared at him the day after tomorrow, he would kill them and refine their corpse. And after that, it would be indiscriminate slaughter.

Cultivating this method makes it easy to fall into the pleasure of plundering others' cultivation, then breaking one's own bottom line again and again. At that point, he would become a slave to power.

"If others don't offend me, I won't offend them!" Shi Jian knew Liu Shen was concerned about him, but he wasn't someone without a sense of propriety.

Regarding the cultivation of Hell Furnace, he shared the same view as Yang Qi. He wouldn't kill people and refine their corpses without reason. But if you offend him… Then, hehe.

Liu Shen nodded, saying no more. She believed Shi Jian had a sense of propriety.

The two stopped talking and left the Demon Transformation Cave, arriving at the altar.

"The Kunpeng Precious Technique is in hand! I've already uploaded the Kunpeng Precious Technique to the group; you can download it from there!" Shi Jian said with a smile to Yang Qi and Xiao Yan.

"Got it!" The two nodded, indicating they had seen the newly uploaded file in the group!

Shi Jian stepped onto the altar and looked at Tianhuang and the many other Divine Weapons. He activated the Kunpeng Precious Technique, and a faint, ethereal Kunpeng spirit body appeared behind him.

Tianhuang seemed to sense something and began to tremble. Then, with a whoosh, it flew out directly, soaring straight towards Shi Jian! It then stopped in front of Shi Jian.

Shi Jian didn't hesitate, reaching out to take Tianhuang! Tianhuang was broken into three pieces, but now, under the influence of some power, it was barely held together.

Shi Jian cultivated the Black Emperor Water Emperor Fist and the Nether God's Spear… Therefore, he hadn't used weapons before. However, with Tianhuang now, he could actually use a weapon.

The Kunpeng at its Peak seemed to be an Immortal King giant, just like Liu Shen. This Tianhuang was also an Immortal King-level weapon. Its power was terrifyingly strong.

Although it was broken into three pieces, this did not affect its power. Immortal King weapons, let alone in the Lower Realm, would be a dimensionality reduction attack even in the Three Thousand Dao Provinces! It could be kept as a trump card.

After putting away Tianhuang, Shi Jian looked at the other few weapons. A golden fan, a black Sky-Measuring Ruler, a Dragon Tooth Dagger, a jade pendant, and a giant cauldron…

These items couldn't compare to Tianhuang, but they were also extremely terrifying Divine Weapons.

"Liu Shen, is there anything you need among these?" Shi Jian looked at Liu Shen and asked.

Liu Shen looked at the items on the altar, thought for a moment, and said: "These Divine Weapons are useless to me. I want that Star Grass… I'm about to undergo a transformation and need the Star Grass to help!"

The Star Grass was about to become a Saint Medicine, which would be of great benefit to Liu Shen. With the Star Grass and the Azure Emperor Wood Emperor Scripture, Liu Shen would be able to fully recover her cultivation in no time.

"Then the Star Grass will be for you, and I'll share these other Divine Weapons with the people in the group!" Upon hearing this, Shi Jian handed the Star Grass to Liu Shen, then decided the ownership of the other Divine Weapons.

After taking the Star Grass, Liu Shen spoke again: "These Divine Weapons are all Quasi-Immortal King-level weapons. Although they have all suffered some damage, their power is still terrifying. The people in your group can take them as trump cards!"

Even damaged Quasi-Immortal King-level weapons still possessed terrifying power. Unleashing their power would be enough to suppress and kill any powerful enemies the group members might encounter now.

Xiao Yan and Yang Qi's eyes lit up upon hearing this. They immediately began to choose. These few Divine Weapons were all similar, just different in style.

Xiao Yan originally wanted to choose the black Sky-Measuring Ruler, but then he remembered that he had already obtained a sword embryo, and that sword embryo would also become a good Divine Weapon if nurtured.

The Sky-Measuring Ruler and the sword embryo had some overlapping functions. So he chose the golden fan. Using a fan as a weapon was easier for showing off.

Yang Qi, on the other hand, chose the giant cauldron. He felt that the cauldron was quite heavy, and combined with the terrifying power of his Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength, it would be perfect for smashing people. One smash, one gone.

After the two made their selections, Shi Jian took out these two items and handed them to them. Then he took photos of the remaining few items and sent them to the group.

[Shi Jian: "Brothers, besides the Kunpeng Precious Technique, there are also a few Divine Weapons in this Kunpeng's nest… Pick one, one for each of you!"]

[Shi Jian: "Yang Qi and the other two have already picked!"]

There were exactly three Divine Weapons left: the Sky-Measuring Ruler, the Dragon Tooth Dagger, and a jade pendant.

[Meng Qi: "I want the Dragon Tooth Dagger!"]

[Lin Dong: "Then I'll take the Sky-Measuring Ruler!"]

[Fang Han: "Looks like I can only choose the jade pendant."]

[Meng Qi: "First come, first served! First come, first served!"]

The people in the group quickly finished choosing. Shi Jian successively took out the Divine Weapons, then sent red packets to the people in the group.

A Dragon Tooth Dagger silently appeared in Meng Qi's hand. Within the Dragon Tooth Dagger, an extremely powerful force was contained.

Unfortunately, after a great battle, most of the spirituality within the Dragon Tooth Dagger had dissipated.

"What a terrifying Divine Weapon!" With just one glance, Meng Qi felt the terror of this Dragon Tooth Dagger. If he activated this Dragon Tooth Dagger, he estimated he could kill a Golden Body expert.

"Another trump card…" Meng Qi chuckled, then stored this Divine Weapon within his body to nurture it.

"I wonder how this Dragon Tooth Dagger compares to the weapons on the Reincarnation Space's Divine Weapon Sharp Weapon List? The Time Blade, the Heavenly Demon Qin…" Meng Qi then thought of the Divine Weapons in the Reincarnation Space.

There were also many Divine Weapons in the Reincarnation Space. The Lord of Reincarnation had specially set up a Divine Weapon Sharp Weapon List for this purpose. It contained a series of Divine Weapons.

"Sky-Measuring Ruler…" A black ruler appeared in Lin Dong's hand, containing terrifying power.

Lin Dong established a connection with the Sky-Measuring Ruler, and instantly, some things appeared in his mind!

"What a treasure! It can be light or heavy, big or small. It will be so convenient for smashing people in the future. One strike with the ruler, and nothing will be left!" Lin Dong excitedly slung the Sky-Measuring Ruler behind his back.

With his current strength, he could only unleash a trace of the Sky-Measuring Ruler's Divine Might. But even this trace of Divine Might was enough for him to roam the continent.

Most of the spirituality within this Divine Weapon was lost; he could re-nurture its spirituality. The functionality of the Sky-Measuring Ruler might not surpass the stone talisman. However, its power was even greater…

"Where did you get this Divine Weapon, kid? It's actually so terrifying…" A trace of the Sky-Measuring Ruler's aura startled Lord Diao awake. He quickly climbed out of the stone talisman.

Xiao Yan had long since returned the stone talisman to Lin Dong. Lord Diao was incredibly excited to have his home back.

He had been staying inside the stone talisman all this time, unwilling to come out. He was afraid that if he left the stone talisman, Lin Dong would somehow misplace it again.

However, he felt that sleeping in the stone talisman wasn't as comfortable as before, and he didn't know why. If it weren't for feeling a trace of aura leaking from the Sky-Measuring Ruler, he wouldn't even have bothered to speak to Lin Dong.

Lord Diao stared at the Sky-Measuring Ruler without blinking. The aura that the ruler had just revealed was truly too terrifying.

"Want to know? Beg me…" Lin Dong said with a smile from the side.

"Beg your grandpa!!!"
