As the entire Immortal Source Ancestral Vein was extracted, the entire planet began to tremble as if an 18-magnitude earthquake had struck, with countless cracks spreading across the land.
The planet's surface was instantly covered in fissures.
After the Ancestral Vein was extracted, it left behind a colossal rift resembling a deep abyss canyon.
Simultaneously, the Spiritual Qi in this Star Domain began to dissipate, rapidly declining.
The extraction of the Ancestral Vein was like blocking the Source of flowing water.
The Spiritual Qi naturally began to dwindle and would eventually completely disperse.
"You... you put the Immortal Source Ancestral Vein into a space Magical Artifact?" Ling Yuan's red lips slightly parted, utterly surprised.
Such an Immortal Source Ancestral Vein, like an ancient Dragon, probably couldn't even fit into an ordinary Magical Artifact, could it?
It wasn't that Ling Yuan was ignorant and unaware of the Inner Universe.
Rather, Jun Xiaoyao's Realm was only at the Great Saint Realm.
Ling Yuan couldn't possibly have imagined that Jun Xiaoyao possessed an Inner Universe.
Moreover, if Jun Xiaoyao concealed his Qi and wanted to hide, outsiders would absolutely find it difficult to detect the Inner Universe fluctuations within his body.
Meng Zhan was also somewhat shocked, then he thought of something.
But he subconsciously denied it.
Because even he, a Quasi Supreme, had not yet Cultivated an Inner Universe.
Not even a Prototype.
"It must be some ancient space Magical Artifact," Meng Zhan thought to himself.
Ling Yuan was already speechless.
She could only sit cross-legged to the side, closing her eyes to meditate and recover.
Jun Xiaoyao, on the other hand, took out some top-tier healing Saint Pills for Meng Zhan.
"Captain, you all recover from your injuries first, then we'll set off," Jun Xiaoyao said.
"Thank you, God Child."
Meng Zhan said gratefully, then he and a group of injured individuals began to recover.
Recovering from injuries was essential.
Otherwise, fighting the foreign creatures while injured would lead to a quicker death.
After Meng Zhan left, Jun Xiaoyao's eyes showed contemplation.
Initially, he did intend to complete the mission and disrupt the foreign land's plan to unseal the divine thoughts.
But now it seemed that to obtain the World Tree deep within the God Ruins World, he would have to rely on the help of the divine thoughts.
Because relying solely on them, it would be difficult to break the Seal left by the Azure Emperor.
Let alone obtain the World Tree.
Jun Xiaoyao had previously considered directly having the divine thoughts break the Seal and then break the World Tree Seal.
This idea was indeed crazy.
One wrong move, and the God Ruins World would collapse, and the Border Region would face a great calamity.
By all accounts, Jun Xiaoyao should not have such an idea.
But Jun Xiaoyao was not a hero, but a schemer.
And don't forget, Jun Xiaoyao also had the lotus seed.
He vaguely felt that this lotus seed was a trump card left by the Azure Emperor to deal with the divine thoughts.
It just hadn't fully Awakened yet.
After being immersed in the Spring of Life, it should eventually manifest some kind of ability.
"This plan is like snatching chestnuts from the fire; one wrong move, and it's a complete loss, but... it's worth the gamble!"
Jun Xiaoyao's deep eyes held a hint of determination.
Sometimes, one must have the courage to go all out.
In this way, the foreign creatures also became a part of Jun Xiaoyao's plan.
Now, Jun Xiaoyao was like the chess player.
The entire God Ruins World was the chessboard.
And the Reverse Jun Seven Emperors, the foreign creatures, seemed to be his enemies, but in reality, they were all his chess pieces.
This could be said to be Jun Xiaoyao's biggest gamble since he embarked on the Ultimate Ancient Road.
If he could win, he would be able to completely transform, and even win this gamble against Heaven!
If he lost, the consequences would be terrifying.
It would not only affect Jun Xiaoyao but also this Border Region and even the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
It could be said that this was Jun Xiaoyao's big gamble.
No Young Prodigy had Jun Xiaoyao's courage and boldness.
"I still need to continue improving my Realm; strength is the foundation of everything," Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
The Immortal Source Ancestral Vein had already been integrated into his Inner Universe, and Jun Xiaoyao could use that vast Spiritual Qi to advance further.
Jun Xiaoyao also immersed himself in Cultivation.
If his strength improved, he would undoubtedly have more confidence in the entire plan.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao was immersed in Cultivation, the other six teams were also searching for the whereabouts of the divine thoughts.
The remaining Prodigies who entered the God Ruins World also had initial encounters with the foreign creatures, engaging in fierce battles.
Of course, battle was cruel.
Throughout the God Ruins World, various screams of agony echoed from time to time.
Meanwhile, in a certain area of the God Ruins World, a crimson warship traversed the Universe Void Realm.
Around it were densely packed foreign creatures.
Standing at the bow of the warship was a Young man dressed in a crimson feather robe.
He had a pair of crimson eyes, within which a sea of fire seemed to swirl.
Behind him were a pair of crimson wings, like two Heavenly Blades.
Behind him, a vision of a sea of fire vaguely appeared, with thousands of living beings wailing within it, enduring the torment of being burned by myriad fires.
This person was Chi Lingkong, the Young strong individual of the Chi Xiao Clan.
The Chi Owl was an ominous bird born from fire disasters.
It was rumored that the strong individuals of this Clan could transform the Heaven and Earth into a fiery prison.
The Chi Owl lineage was previously a top Royal Clan in the foreign land.
But because their Clan's Supreme strong individual, Chi Xiao King, successfully advanced to become an Immortal King, their entire Clan Ascended, moving up a step.
As long as an Immortal King appears, their race can become a Quasi-Emperor Clan.
Of course, to become a true Immortal Emperor Clan, having an Immortal King alone is not enough.
They also need various profound foundations.
And at this moment, standing before Chi Lingkong was a group of foreign creatures.
The leader was none other than the Quasi Supreme of the Heavenly Devil Royal Clan from before.
"Heh, the Immortal Domain Jun Family's people have finally appeared?" Chi Lingkong's mouth curled into a cold sneer.
The current generation of the Chi Owl lineage had two Young Prodigies.
One was him, Chi Lingkong, and the other was his older brother, Chi Hongyu.
Chi Hongyu was one of the leading figures among the younger generation in the foreign land and had been in secluded Cultivation, not coming to the God Ruins World.
"The Celestial Demon Eight Riders have fallen; it seems this Jun Xiaoyao is indeed as the intelligence reports stated," Chi Lingkong murmured.
Previously, upon entering the God Ruins World, some of the top Young experts from the foreign side had received intelligence from a foreign intelligence organization.
It listed some individuals from the Immortal Domain who needed attention.
The first one listed was Jun Xiaoyao.
The current God Child of the Jun Family, Zero Sequence, was also a seed-level figure of the current generation in the Immortal Domain.
As long as those dormant seeds didn't emerge, Jun Xiaoyao was undeniably the first, having never suffered a defeat so far.
"But this way, defeating Jun Xiaoyao will be even more interesting."
"I want to continue the glory of Lord Chi Xiao King; without my brother needing to act, I can sweep through the Jun Family's younger generation!" Chi Lingkong spoke with great arrogance.
Or rather, the nature of foreign creatures was mostly arrogant and full of Battle Intent.
"But before that, I still need to go to another Seal discovered; Jun Xiaoyao, I will personally slay him later," Chi Lingkong sneered.
The Quasi-Emperor Clan that came to the God Ruins World was not just his Chi Owl lineage.
In fact, later, there might even be Young masters from Immortal Emperor Clan arriving.
Chi Lingkong wanted to kill the strongest Young generation from the Immortal Domain side, which was Jun Xiaoyao, before that.
Thus, he would achieve a great merit, raising the prestige of the Chi Owl lineage to a higher level.
