"Judging by the time, we've been in this world for about thirty days and months. It should be about time!"

The young Taoist priest held the precious seal in his hand, gazing at the endless sea. With his other hand, he made some calculations for a moment, a faint melancholy appearing in his eyes. Looking up at the gloomy sky, a hint of sadness also appeared in his eyes.

He and the dragons entered this world not to entertain guests, but with the purpose of destruction. Along the way, he did not actively slaughter the living beings of this world, but he did not refrain from taking over the mountains and rivers and plundering the world.

This is no different in essence from the bloody and brutal slaughter and suppression by the Dragon Clan. After he took over the mountains and rivers, the native creatures who originally depended on the mountains and rivers for survival could no longer continue. Even if no one took action, they would find it difficult to survive in the future.

During this time, Feng Bingwen watched helplessly as this world gradually weakened, and the faint sense of oppression emanating from all directions on his body also weakened.

What came into Feng Bingwen's view was that the once vibrant world had become increasingly desolate. The sea before him was tinged with a bluish-black color, and life in the sea was almost extinguished.

Where is that innate spiritual root?

Feng Bingwen frowned and murmured softly.

This is what he truly cares about. As for destroying heaven and earth, he only wants to participate and see it for himself. As for using a primordial being as the price to refine a treasure seal, that is not his pursuit, but just something he does as a matter of course, which happened to happen to be the case.

What he wanted was that innate spiritual root, something promised to him by the Heavenly Book. Logically speaking, after so much time, he should have obtained it by now, but he hasn't even seen a trace of it, let alone gotten his hands on it.

Not long ago, he wondered if he might encounter one that grew in this world. Although the level of this world was a bit low, it was still an innate spiritual root. If he brought it back to his world and cultivated it for a period of time, it might not be inferior to those spiritual roots.

But as it turns out, he was overthinking it. Perhaps this world also nurtures divine objects like innate spiritual roots, but clearly, it's not his turn. If it did exist, the dragon race would have taken it away.

After all, the Dragon Clan is responsible for guarding this sea frontier, and this world was destroyed because of the Dragon Clan. As a mere human, he would be lucky to get some of the benefits. To think he could get the biggest share is wishful thinking.

"Is it that spiritual root that connects heaven and earth?"

Feng Bingwen was implying that it was impossible for heaven and earth to be connected to each other without a reason. The distance between them was immeasurable even to immortals. Yet, at this moment, there was a world connected to it.

This must be due to the intervention of a highly powerful being, or the presence of a supreme divine object, or both; otherwise, such an effect could not have been achieved.

"I didn't see it!"

Feng Bingwen couldn't help but sigh. His divine eyes looked in all directions, but he couldn't see any clues.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. If he could discover it so easily, then the real dragons would also be able to see it easily. How could such a good thing fall into his lap?

"Fellow Daoist Feng!"

Just as Feng Bingwen stood at the edge of this world, his brows furrowed, a shout came from afar. Feng Bingwen looked up and immediately saw a dark dragon shadow winding its way towards him.

"Your magical power has increased significantly in such a short time!"

Upon seeing this familiar dragon, Feng Bingwen couldn't help but sigh.

He wasn't the only one who found opportunities in this world; the other true dragons were no less powerful than him, and some were even more unrestrained because they didn't have as many scruples as him.

"Hahaha, I've devoured quite a few creatures from this world and refined a few of them, which has increased my magical power. I'm sorry to have made you laugh, fellow Daoist. But I can't compare to your harvest, fellow Daoist. You even have innate energy surrounding you. You must have found an innate treasure. Fellow Daoist Feng, you truly have a great opportunity!"

The black dragon circled in front of Feng Bingwen, its gaze falling on the object held in his hands. The dragon boy's eyes lit up, and a hint of envy appeared in them.

The murderous aura that he inadvertently revealed in his words was particularly chilling, but Feng Bingwen, standing to the side, did not seem to care.

The dragons he encountered were all like this, devouring all living beings in this world. If classified according to the human cultivation world, this act of devouring hundreds of millions of living beings would undoubtedly be classified as demonic. However, for the dragons, they were simply seizing this rare opportunity to feast.

The differences between heaven and earth do not affect the appetite of the dragon race. They are not picky about many things and are quite casual, which is one of the key reasons why the dragon race has become a powerful race in heaven and earth.

"If we've just stumbled upon each other by chance, fellow Daoist, there's no need for such an attitude. The opportunities you've obtained are probably no worse than mine; it's just that you're low-key and reserved, unlike me who's so ostentatious!"

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Feng guessed it right!"

Upon hearing Feng Bingwen's words, the black dragon laughed triumphantly, and then spat out a thunder pearl that Feng Bingwen had seen before. However, compared to the pearl that could only scratch the surface of extraterrestrial demons, this pearl was now completely transformed.

Its mere appearance caused the surrounding void to collapse, and the lightning it emitted shattered the void, making it truly remarkable. Furthermore, it was imbued with innate energy.

"Hiss, what kind of fortuitous encounter did you have to cultivate such a precious treasure?"

"It's nothing. I was lucky enough to encounter a primordial lightning spirit. That guy blasted me quite badly, but I fought it for three days and three nights and finally managed to destroy the lightning spirit. I collected the remaining energy and refined it into this pearl, which raised the pearl's grade by a level. It's now comparable to the treasure seal you've refined, fellow Daoist."

"Where do you mean 'evenly matched'? My precious seal is still half a point inferior to your precious pearl."

Feng Bingwen responded politely to the flattery, but he was deep in thought. The true dragons who entered this realm should be able to reap a lot of benefits. Although innate items are rare, if you search the whole world, at least everyone can get one. Some lucky ones can even get a second one. As for him, a human, he didn't need to think too much about it!

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Feng, you really are... Come, I didn't come to you for mutual flattery. This world is on the verge of collapse. Let's leave this world and go to the outer realm to watch a good show. I guarantee you've never seen anything like it in your life!"

"What scenery is this? Have you perhaps seen it before, fellow Daoist?"

"Hey, this is my first time seeing this too, but I imagine it's quite magnificent, since the Ancestral Dragon is about to make his move!"
