“At the end of the Extreme Ancient Era, the battle that shattered the Ancient Gods destroyed nearly eight-tenths of the Extreme Ancient land. By the end of the Primordial Era, the Extreme Ancient had completely fragmented, eventually forming the situation of the Ancient Times and the current Ancient Nine Realms. It was only over ten thousand years ago that, due to the Tao Tomb, the Nine Realms reunited.”

“The remnants of the Ancient Gods I had searched for before, those in the Ancient World, have either perished or been discovered by other Heavenly Sovereigns through the years of changes.”

“The remnants that still have markers are all in the Void.”

“However, I suddenly thought of a place before, this place, strictly speaking, cannot be called a remnant of the Ancient Gods.”

“But it can indeed provide the best assistance for the enhancement of your cultivation and the repairing of ancient artifacts.”

Age Candle Heavenly Venerate said with a smile, his words warming Han Yi’s heart.

It seems that Age Candle Heavenly Venerate still has quite a few private treasures, Han Yi thought.

Age Candle Heavenly Venerate, with Han Yi in tow, delved into the Void and headed northeast.

The area of the Ancient Continent in the entire Ancient World covered less than one ten-thousandth of the world; most of the other spaces were an expanse of Void, where too many mysteries were buried.

Originally, when Han Yi was in the Void, he found the God’s Tomb and encountered some buildings left by the affiliated races of the Wisdom Realm, but what he saw was less than one ten-thousandth of the mysteries of the Void.

After all, his travels after becoming a Tao Cultivator were not within the Void.

After traveling through the Void for two days, Age Candle gradually slowed his pace and then stopped, reaching forward to gently grab, as if removing some veiling substance.

With his grasp, the power of Chaos surged, and in the seemingly empty Void, changes began to take place, a massive corpse appeared before Han Yi.

Han Yi’s pupils abruptly contracted, and his face instantly shook with shock.

He was not unfamiliar with this massive corpse.

When he first became an Immortal Mansion Practitioner, still in the Nascent Soul Realm, he had been punished and taken to a world within this corpse.

He remembered the Immortal Monarch who had brought him there, Tao Title Linghua, who later, due to the loss of his Taoist Heart, was imprisoned by Age Candle Heavenly Sovereign.

At that time, he did not know the realm of this corpse of the Ancient God, but now, he saw it more clearly.

The massive corpse before him was indeed the body of an Ancient God, and more so, it was the corpse of a Godly Venerable.

The world that Han Yi had entered back then was one of the Divine Aperture Worlds of this Godly Venerable.

In that Divine Aperture World, Han Yi witnessed the annihilation of the sun, the moon, and the stars, and gained an initial understanding of the path of the Ancient Gods.

Strictly speaking.

This place was the starting point of his journey to the path of the Ancient Gods.

And here, as Age Candle Heavenly Venerate had said, it was not a remnant of the Ancient Gods, because it was the real Ancient God itself.

“As you see, this is the corpse of a Godly Venerable, this Venerable, Tao Title Xing Han, although Xing Han Venerable was only an Initial-stage Divine Sovereign, his divine might was terrifying. I witnessed his fall, which greatly shook my heart.”

“Over fifteen thousand years ago, Linghua found this corpse, influenced by the Demon Thoughts that emanated from the corpse, he was confined by me to the Demon Transformation Domain to suppress his Heart Demon.”

“After that, I moved the corpse of Xing Han Venerable to this Void Space and hid it.”

“A Godly Venerable’s body is a treasure all over.”

Age Candle Heavenly Venerate looked at Han Yi and said,

“Han Yi, within the body of this Divine Sovereign, in the endless Divine Aperture Worlds, countless Divine Spirits have emerged. Extracting the Spiritual Nature of those Divine Spirits can compensate for the spirituality of your ancient artifact.”

“However, you must be careful, as those Divine Spirits have also been influenced by the corpse’s Demon Thought. The Spiritual Natures extracted need to be further refined to remove the Demon Thought before they can be fused into the ancient artifact; otherwise, the artifact may be influenced by the Demon Thought and backlash against its master.”

“And if you extract and smelt the bone marrow of Xing Han Venerable, it can repair the cracks in the ancient artifact.”

“This corpse can satisfy your needs.”

Han Yi heard this, his heart thrumming with excitement.

Seeing Han Yi’s excitement, Age Candle Heavenly Venerate continued to speak:

“`

“However, I haven’t had the chance to cleanse the Demon Thoughts from this corpse,”

“Back then, I was only at the peak of the Tao Realm, and it took too much time to cleanse these Demon Thoughts. I had intended to wait until I ascended to Heavenly Sovereign before coming back to cleanse them, but now there are too many matters to attend to, and I might not be able to extricate myself.”

“With your strength, however strong the Demon Thoughts here may be, they cannot trouble you; moreover, they can hone your combat power, making this a fine place for training.”

“Once you enter, I will reseal this Chaos region, allowing only you to pass through.”

“Go.”

Han Yi bowed in thanks to the Age Candle Heavenly Venerate and then went towards the colossal God Corpse lying in the Void ahead.

In fact.

After ascending to the Infinite Realm, he had once explored the nearby Void not far from Daluo, seeking this God Corpse, but in the end, he returned without success.

Unexpectedly, after stumbling in the dark, today he had finally achieved his wish.

Being of the Divine Clan himself, he naturally knew the true worth of a God Corpse.

Unlike Immortal cultivators, who focus on enlightenment and Tao Skills and begin by leveraging a faint origin to move vast energies, even those with a weaker Realm could shake more powerful enemies if they possessed heaven-defying Tao Skills.

Ancient Gods, however, place importance on the physical body; their lifelong cultivation is devoted to constantly developing their Divine Aperture World and their Divine Physique. Even when employing Divine Arts, they transform the force of their physical body through Divine Arts and spread it out. The key doesn’t lie in the Divine Arts, but in the Divine Physique.

No matter how powerful the Divine Arts are, without the support of a Divine Physique, they cannot exert much effectiveness.

Watching Han Yi advance towards the God Corpse, the Age Candle Heavenly Venerate waved his hand and repaired the original restrictions, reinforcing them further.

He then turned and left.

As Han Yi approached the God Corpse, he noticed that shadows moved upon the colossal corpse, their aura sinister and profound–these must be the Demon Thoughts born from the body.

Unafraid of these Demon Thoughts, Han Yi shifted his gaze to observe the God Corpse. The God Corpse lay horizontally, its height around three billion zhang, which was typical for an Initial-stage Divine Sovereign.

It was conceivable that at the time of the Xing Han Venerable’s fall, he must not have been far from breaking through the Divine Sovereign stage.

As he drew closer to the Divine Sovereign’s corpse, he spotted a vast wound on its abdomen, a void within this wound.

He remembered clearly that, when he had first come here in the Nascent Soul Realm, within several miles of the God Corpse, he discovered spatial distortion and change; shortly afterward, he found himself within its Divine Aperture World.

Now, upon reflection, he realized that he had indeed entered the God Corpse’s body from the wound site back then.

With a thought, Han Yi moved closer, binding his Divine Force and lowering his aura to the level of the regular Spirit Transformation Stage. As he approached the wound, a strong suction force landed on him.

Of course, this suction wasn’t strong to him, and he could easily break free if he chose, but he didn’t. Instead, he let himself be drawn into the body of the God Corpse by the suction.

The space shifted, and he found himself within a vast world, unmistakably a Divine Aperture World.

Han Yi didn’t descend into the world but soared higher, entering directly into the Void Space of this Divine Aperture World. As soon as he appeared, countless Divine Spirits hidden within began to show themselves.

One after another, Divine Realms emerged within the Void. These Divine Realms, in essence, were just Cave Heavens that had been opened, but within this Divine Aperture World, they served as the dwelling places for the supreme Divine Spirits.

Divine Spirits surged forth, and with just one glance, Han Yi noticed that the strongest among them were only half-gods of the Fifth-stage–not far from the Primordial Realm but, due to the ever-present rules of the Ancient World, they could never advance to the Primordial Realm. Even if they could break through, it would be an aberration, they would instantly fall into demonism, inviting a cataclysm that would end the world.

Han Yi took out a jade bottle, a Middle-stage Tao Artifact that was perfect for containing and storing Spiritual Nature.

With an expansion of his Divine Thoughts, a storm that engulfed the entire world instantly formed, and countless freshly emerged Divine Spirits found their Divinity being rapidly extracted.

The Divine Spirits roared in frenzy, wielding artifacts and charging at Han Yi to attack, but they were extinguished into ash with just a glance from him.

In just a few breaths, all the Divine Realms within the entire Divine Aperture World were shattered and destroyed, and all Divine Spirits fell.

Han Yi, holding the jade bottle, tore through the Void and escaped from this Divine Aperture World.

For this Divine Aperture World, this day marked the end of all gods, a day of deity lament.

The era of Divine Spirits, from this moment, ended!
