Zhou Yu, Jiang Xiuwu, and Yun Feifei entered the secret entrance.

In an instant, everything went pitch black.

Not only could they not see their surroundings, even Divine Sense and Primordial Spirit couldn't leave their bodies.

At that moment, Zhou Yu could only feel an intense Spatial Force fluctuating around him.

It was as if he was traversing a time-space tunnel.

This sensation lasted for nearly a minute before it suddenly vanished.

At the same time, Zhou Yu's perception returned.

His first reaction was to open his eyes, only to find himself amidst barren mountains.

Apart from the bare, moderate-sized peaks, there was nothing else around.

Jiang Xiuwu and Yun Feifei were nowhere to be seen.

Zhou Yu immediately tried to release his Divine Sense to search the surroundings, but realized the Spatial Force here was very turbulent, and though his Divine Sense could leave his body, it couldn't probe very far.

Zhou Yu's face turned grim as he understood.

It must be the chaotic Spatial Force here that caused the three of them to be separated upon entering.

Now this is troublesome.

Jiang Xiuwu should be alright, after all, he's a First Grade King Realm expert. His actual combat prowess might not match that of a First Grade Emperor Realm, but it's close.

But Yun Feifei is only at the Mid-Holy Realm; separated in this secret place, she could easily encounter danger.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu quickly became anxious.

He needed to find Yun Feifei and Jiang Xiuwu as soon as possible.

Zhou Yu glanced at his surroundings; everything looked the same, giving no clues.

He didn't know which direction to go.

With a flicker, he reached the top of a nearby peak and gazed into the distance.

Suddenly, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and Zhou Yu disappeared from the mountaintop.

Soon after, Zhou Yu appeared in another valley.

Here, amidst piles of chaotic rocks, it was hard to tell if it was due to martial artist battles or natural causes.

But amidst this chaos, there was a broken Jade Bi, emitting a strange luster.

This was what Zhou Yu had inadvertently seen from the mountain top.

From afar, he had vaguely noticed something unusual about this Jade Bi.

Now, approaching the Jade Bi, he could see it was indeed extraordinary.

It was made of the rare Emperor Jade, a vibrant green throughout.

If it were in the outside world, jade merchants would scramble madly for it.

To know, the Jade Bi before Zhou Yu, though broken, stood as tall as a person.

Its value likely exceeded ten billion.

However, what Zhou Yu cared about wasn't the material of the Jade Bi, but what was engraved on it.

This broken Jade Bi had some ancient inscriptions on it.

These might be hard for others to recognize, but for Zhou Yu, this wasn't a problem, as an old man had taught him when he was young.

Zhou Yu focused his gaze and began to examine it closely.

The top half of the Jade Bi intermittently narrated some descriptions of cultivation from Ancient Times.

Of course, much of it had disappeared.

However, the lower half of the Jade Bi recorded some transcendent things, which piqued Zhou Yu's interest.

According to the Jade Bi,

the so-called 'transcendence' actually refers to mortals undergoing cultivation, achieving transcendence, and obtaining a Taoist Body.

The Taoist Body is where the Primordial Spirit becomes tangible, the body becomes Sacred, and the Dantian turns into a Golden Core!

These correspond to the Refining the Godly Path with the Primordial Spirit solidifying.

The Body Refinement Path reaching a Sacred Body.

The Qi Refining Path transforming the Dantian into a Golden Core.

Achieving any of these three paths allows one to fully shed the mortal body and become a Taoist Body.

At that point, one is no longer a mortal.

One can be called a cultivator or a practitioner.

Of course, Zhou Yu had known this all before.

But what caught his interest was what was recorded on the Jade Bi.

After the Ancient Era ended, due to the great changes in heaven and earth, normal means could no longer allow the mortal body to transcend and become a Taoist Body.

To become a Taoist Body, one must use some mediators.

The Jade Bi doesn't specify what these mediators are, but it depicts several symbols, among which Zhou Yu saw a bead-like figure.

He recognized it instantly.

It's the Heavenly Law Dao Bead.

This suggests that the so-called transcendence is about entering the Ancestor Realm.

Once one enters the Ancestor Realm, they completely shed their mortal body and become a Taoist Body.

In fact, this isn't surprising, because even in today's Martial Arts World, when a martial artist reaches the Emperor Realm, their might far surpasses that of ordinary humans.

But if they were beheaded or their heart crushed, even an Emperor Realm expert would still die.

However, after entering the Ancestor Realm, it becomes different; generally speaking, even if beheaded, heart destroyed, or body shattered, they can still survive.

This is the Ancestor Realm, which the Jade Bi refers to as the Taoist Body.

From this perspective, it indeed seems so.

Zhou Yu continued to look down.

Then, the following content became increasingly intriguing.

According to the Jade Bi, before transcendence, if one can cultivate all three paths to the extreme and then converge into a Taoist Body, one can cultivate into the legendary Chaos Dao Body.

This Chaos Dao Body, even in Ancient Times, was an extraordinary existence.

At this point, Zhou Yu's heart stirred.

Isn't this the martial arts he is currently cultivating?

Now, both his Body Refinement Path and Qi Refining Path have reached the King Realm, only the Refining the Godly Path remains in the Saint Realm.

Of course, this is due to the limitations of the Refining the Godly Path, unless using some dark methods, like consuming Life Souls, it's indeed challenging to improve.

Zhou Yu is not fond of killing and doesn't wish to do things that provoke the wrath of both man and heaven, which is why his Body Refinement Path has seen little advancement.

However, after reading the content on the Jade Bi, Zhou Yu's thoughts began to churn.

It seems, after this secret venture is over, he must find a way to improve his Refining the Godly Path's realm.

He is also very interested in the legendary Chaos Dao Body.

As Zhou Yu was fully absorbed in observing the Jade Bi, his gaze suddenly shifted to the left front.

In the left front, about ten kilometers away, a terrifying black aura abruptly surged into the sky, accompanied by intense fluctuations.

Zhou Yu's eyes narrowed, immediately concealing his presence, and flew towards that direction...
