Upon seeing Cao Ya's appearance, both Zhu Kun and the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator were slightly taken aback.
They wondered why this mysterious powerhouse, who was clearly already at the Dou Di realm, was still comprehending the legacy of the ancient Tuoshe Emperor.
Ah, that's right. The path of the Azure Robe Dou Di is different from that of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe... For a Dou Di powerhouse, the path of another Dou Di is also worth considering... Although Dou Di is invincible on the Dou Qi Continent, it should still be possible to cultivate and improve, right? Otherwise, the Azure Robe Dou Di wouldn't have gone to such great lengths...
The two pondered for a moment, then decided not to disturb Cao Ya.
Zhu Kun gazed at the towering stone statue of the ancient emperor Tuoshe, his eyes burning with fervor. However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not obtain the inheritance of the ancient emperor Tuoshe.
His path was also completely unlike that of Thoshkuti.
"Heh, you want to obtain the inheritance of the ancient emperor Tuoshe? You really dare to dream." The Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator sneered. He had been here for nearly ten thousand years, and had he ever gained anything special?
"Even if I can't obtain the inheritance of Emperor Tuoshe, I can still advance to the Dou Di realm with your Emperor-grade embryonic pill," Zhu Kun sneered.
"Then you try," the young Emperor-grade Dan retorted, showing no fear.
The two faced off, but dared not actually make a move. If they disturbed the Green-Robed Battle Emperor, a single slap would finish them off.
Moreover, Zhu Kun had absolutely no confidence in obtaining the Emperor-grade embryonic pill.
He knew that the strength of the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator was no weaker than his, and in terms of trump cards, given the Nascent Soul cultivator's background, it was probably no weaker than his.
"Oh, right, I forgot to see you out." Cao Ya opened his eyes, flicked his finger, and divine light surged forth from within the ancient emperor's cave, constructing a passage that directly connected to the underground magma world.
"Thank you, Green Robe Dou Di." Zhu Kun and the Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator clasped their hands in thanks and couldn't help but laugh. One of them was inside, and the other was outside; both had been trapped for thousands of years, and their desire to go out was incredibly strong.
"Don't do anything rash once you're outside," Cao Ya said calmly, then closed his eyes.
He had released these two peak Dou Sheng experts, so naturally he wouldn't allow them to slaughter the students of Jialan Academy.
Upon hearing the words of the green-robed Dou Di, the two men were awed and nodded.
Then, following the divine power passage, they finally left the ancient emperor's cave and entered the incomparably hot magma world.
Zhu Kun stared intently at the nascent imperial-grade elixir, eager to try it out.
"Why don't you try it yourself?" The Emperor-grade Nascent Soul cultivator asked with a half-smile.
Although the divine light passage dissipated and the stone gate closed again, and without the Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jade, they could not re-enter the Ancient Emperor's Cave, they were all very clear that the green-robed Dou Di was absolutely capable of traversing space and annihilating a Dou Sheng from billions of miles away.
The power of a Dou Di is unimaginable.
Zhu Kun was wary and dared not make a move.
Then, the two left the magma world warily. The moment they appeared at the Garan Academy, the aura of a nine-star Dou Sheng emanated from them, shaking the entire Garan Academy and even the vast Black Corner Domain, causing them to tremble in fear.
Because of Cao Ya's words, they didn't dare to make a move and simply left.
However, after tearing through the void, Zhu Kun suddenly sensed something and froze.
"My child..." Zhu Kun's body suddenly trembled as if he had suffered a stroke.
Even the Emperor-grade embryonic pills were no longer worth tracking.
The Emperor-grade embryonic core simply slipped away, concealing its aura to prevent the powerful figures on the Dou Qi Continent from discovering it.
He knew very well that if his identity were exposed, it would attract the covetous eyes of countless people.
Although he was powerful and fearless of ordinary Dou Sheng, even ants can kill an elephant, and if another nine-star Dou Sheng like Zhu Kun were to appear, he would be no match for him.
The Emperor-grade embryonic pill disappeared, but Zhu Kun landed at Jialan Academy, causing a stir within the academy. The high-ranking experts appeared one after another, their faces showing fear.
But Zhu Kun's attention was focused on the little girl who seemed never to grow up; there seemed to be a special connection between the two.
Su Qian, the Grand Elder of the Inner Court of Jialan Academy, glanced at the entrance of the academy and nodded thoughtfully, as if he had guessed something.

In the ancient emperor's cave.
After sending Zhu Kun and the Emperor-grade embryonic pill away, Cao Ya focused wholeheartedly on his cultivation. After a few years, his battle qi cultivation had reached the level of Battle Saint.
This place is truly a treasure trove for him, allowing him to focus on studying cultivation techniques and combat skills, and to create his own cultivation methods by referring to those strange flames. The energy mist here, as well as the Heavenly Tomb he plundered, also helped him improve his combat qi cultivation.
Finally, Cao Ya created a fire-attribute cultivation technique, different from the "Burning Technique," and also different from the cultivation techniques of the eight ancient clans, or the Heaven-rank cultivation techniques collected by the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe in the Ancient Emperor's Cave.
Cao Ya named this cultivation method "Fire Codex," which is self-explanatory.
When he diligently cultivated and finally reached the realm of a half-emperor, he finally entered the system space once again.
No new people appeared; everyone shared memories and strength.
The power of Cao Ya from "Battle Through the Heavens" and "Martial Universe" has increased to the peak of the three-star level, reaching the realm of half-emperor and half-ancestor, respectively, which has brought great surprise to many Cao Yas.
"With a few more peak three-star power, combined with the power of [Panlong], perhaps we can directly reach the mid-four-star level." Cao Ya of [Immortal Gourd] murmured. Four-star corresponds to the Dao Integration Realm in the [Immortal Gourd] universe. This kind of power cannot break free from the Xi Huang Yang God Ranking.
"I should be close to becoming a Dou Di." Cao Ya from [Battle Through the Heavens] pondered. He had a premonition that it wouldn't be long before he could become a four-star Dou Di.
“Me too.” Cao Ya from [Martial Universe] nodded.
"That would be best." Cao Ya from [Covering the Sky] smiled slightly.
"It seems I need to prepare to go to the Supreme Plane or the God Plane. Staying on the Yulan Continent, without experiencing danger or fighting with strong people, it's too difficult to improve," said Cao Ya of Panlong.
Then, he looked at Cao Ya from [Perfect World] and smiled:
"What, you're still in the process of breaking through? Are you sure you can handle it?"
Cao Ya laughed. Cao Ya's breakthrough in [Perfect World] has been going on for many years. During this time, he said many times that he was almost there, but he still hasn't completed it. It's really funny and makes people want to tease him.
"Get lost." Cao Ya from [Perfect World] said with a dark face.

The Perfect World: The Great Universe.
The desolate realm of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Dahuang, Shicun.
An ancient willow tree sprouts new buds, their green leaves gleaming. Hundreds of branches hang down, swaying gently, creating soft green hues and halos.
Its existence has transformed this world, imbuing it with a sacred aura, transcending the mundane.
Beneath the willow tree, a figure sat cross-legged, his body ablaze with an intense divine fire. His face was contorted, yet the ground around him remained unaffected, as if the divine fire were merely an illusion.
"Shi Hao, is this the spirit of your village? It's far too special and powerful." A melodious female voice rang out, filled with amazement.
"Look, there's someone under the willow tree, that's... 'The Wanderer of the Great Wilderness'? No, now he should be called 'The Deity of the Great Wilderness'!" someone exclaimed in shock.
"The Great Wilderness God, is he... breaking through?!" another voice asked in confusion.
This scene is remarkably similar to the legendary scene of lighting the divine fire, but the divine fire lit by the Great Wilderness God Cao Ya does not belong to any of the types they know.
"The fire ignited by the wandering cultivator is a special kind of divine fire," Shi Hao's voice rang out, explaining.
Just then, the willow branches swayed, signaling everyone to step back.
"What's wrong, Goddess Liu?" Shi Hao asked.
"Cao Ya is close to success," Liu Shen said calmly.
"What???"
The group, including Shi Hao, paled, but then their eyes lit up with surprise. What an opportunity it was to witness the birth of a god!
