The great opportunity that Ji Xuankin had longed for was ultimately seized by Jun Xiaoyao.
If there was nothing good inside the box, it would be a disservice to Ji Xuan's efforts.
Jun Xiaoyao opened the box.
At first glance, what caught his eye was an ancient, dark golden scroll, seemingly made of gold leaf.
"What is this?" Jun Xiaoyao wondered slightly.
He opened the dark golden scroll.
In an instant, countless ancient characters appeared before Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
Each ancient character radiated endless divine light, resembling stars in the sky in motion.
For an ordinary person, just a glance would be enough to blind them.
But Jun Xiaoyao was different; he was an ancient sacred body, and his eyes shone with golden light, sweeping away the brilliance.
Upon seeing it, Jun Xiaoyao revealed a look of astonishment.
For someone as calm and composed as Jun Xiaoyao to show such an expression, one could imagine the extent of his surprise.
"Could this be... one of the Nine Great Heavenly Books?"
Jun Xiaoyao was slightly taken aback, also not daring to believe it.
In the Immortal Domain, there was probably no cultivator who did not know about the Nine Great Heavenly Books.
The Nine Great Heavenly Books were not written by humans, nor were they the inheritance of any particular lineage.
They had existed since the inception of the Nine Heavens Immortal Domain.
Some said the Nine Great Heavenly Books were written by "immortals."
Others claimed that they were manifestations of the laws of the Heavenly Dao.
In any case, there were various theories.
But one thing was certain: the Nine Great Heavenly Books could not be created by any individual.
Even an emperor would find it difficult to create one.
The most precious aspect of the Nine Great Heavenly Books was that each book represented an ultimate principle.
For example, one of the Nine Great Heavenly Books, the Book of Void, represented the ultimate of the path of space.
The Book of Time represented the ultimate of the path of time.
The other different books represented various ultimate paths.
There were even rumors that if someone could gather all Nine Great Heavenly Books, they could merge them into one and walk the path to becoming an immortal.
It was precisely because of the various rumors surrounding the Nine Great Heavenly Books that countless people were frantically searching for their whereabouts.
However, throughout countless epochs, let alone gathering all Nine Great Heavenly Books, even the appearance of one or two was a luxury.
Jun Xiaoyao never expected that this wooden box would actually contain a scroll of a heavenly book.
"Judging by its content, this should be the Body Book, one of the Nine Great Heavenly Books, representing the ultimate of the physical body," Jun Xiaoyao murmured, his tone unable to hide his excitement.
Surely, no one would see a heavenly book and not feel thrilled.
Moreover, it was even more coincidental that this book, being one of the Nine Great Heavenly Books, perfectly matched Jun Xiaoyao's ancient sacred body.
"First, the Divine Elephant Suppression Technique, and now the Body Book. Is this meant to help me attain the status of a Body Emperor?" Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself.
However, what made Jun Xiaoyao frown slightly was that this Body Book seemed incomplete.
It appeared to only have the upper volume.
"Right, the remnant soul of the Primordial Heaven Supreme mentioned before that the remaining part might be in the lower realm."
"Does this mean that the lower volume of the Body Book is in the Ten Lands?" Jun Xiaoyao murmured.
This possibility was quite high.
"It seems that I must make a trip to the lower realm in the future; the Body Book is too important to me," Jun Xiaoyao said.
With his ancient sacred body, combined with the Divine Elephant Suppression Technique, and the Body Book, how powerful would his physical body become once fully cultivated?
Perhaps even the Body Emperors of the ancient times would pale in comparison to him?
Inside the wooden box, besides the Body Book, there was also a fragment of a bronze piece.
Compared to the Body Book, this bronze fragment seemed rather inconspicuous.
It did not appear to be made of any kind of immortal metal and looked very ancient.
When Jun Xiaoyao held it in his hand, he unexpectedly found that he could not crush this bronze fragment.
Jun Xiaoyao's current physical strength was incredibly formidable; he could easily shatter ordinary royal weapons, let alone immortal metals.
Yet this seemingly unremarkable bronze fragment was remarkably sturdy.
"That's a bit strange; I should show this to Grandpa and the others later," Jun Xiaoyao put away the bronze fragment.
Next, he took out the hand bone of the Saint King and five dragon bones.
Jun Xiaoyao had already separated the hand bone of the Saint King.
The entire hand bone was as white as jade, imprinted with complex Dao patterns.
Even just lying there, it exuded the pressure of a saint.
The reason Ji Xuan could stand out among the talented was largely due to this hand bone of the Saint King.
A single hand bone could create a powerful genius.
However, Jun Xiaoyao had no intention of integrating the hand bone into his own arm.
The thought of someone else's bone merging into his body was quite unsettling.
Moreover, Jun Xiaoyao's ancient sacred body was already one of the strongest physiques; once fully developed, it would be many times stronger than the hand bone of the Saint King.
There was no need to forsake the essential for the trivial.
"Although I won't integrate it into my arm, I can forge a magical artifact from it," Jun Xiaoyao said to himself.
He planned to create a weapon from the hand bone of the Saint King.
As for the five dragon bones, he intended to reward four of the ancient dragon bones to Jun Zhangjian and the others.
After all, they had contributed significantly in the Primordial Heaven Secret Vault.
The benefits that should be given must still be given.
As for the Supreme Ancestral Dragon Bone, Jun Xiaoyao naturally intended to refine it himself.
Then, Jun Xiaoyao directly summoned the Hell Melting Furnace and absorbed the Supreme Ancestral Dragon Bone into it.
In an instant, a torrent of essence surged forth.
The power contained within the Supreme Ancestral Dragon Bone was incredibly immense; if it fell into Xiao Chen's hands, it could directly lead to a great transformation for him.
But now, all of it benefited Jun Xiaoyao.
Within his body, the sound of popping beans echoed, as one giant elephant particle after another awakened.
Eighty thousand...
Ninety thousand...
In the end, within Jun Xiaoyao's body, one hundred thousand giant elephant particles completely awakened!
Golden divine light surged around Jun Xiaoyao!
Behind him, an incredibly solid golden divine elephant appeared, its trunk curling, letting out a roar towards the sky, exuding an aura of suppressing the eight wildernesses and shaking the stars!
At this moment, the Divine Elephant Suppression Technique entered the first stage of minor completion.
With every movement of Jun Xiaoyao, a divine power of one billion pounds erupted, capable of shattering stars with a single punch and collapsing ancient mountains!
"Truly worthy of the Supreme Ancestral Dragon Bone; this energy is too immense," Jun Xiaoyao exclaimed.
After the transformation of the Divine Elephant Suppression Technique, the next step was to convert the giant elephant particles into dragon elephant particles.
Dragon elephant particles were ten times stronger than giant elephant particles.
This meant that if Jun Xiaoyao converted all the giant elephant particles into dragon elephant particles, his physical divine power would surge tenfold.
That would be one hundred billion pounds of divine power!
Just thinking about it was terrifying.
Moreover, the benefits brought by the Supreme Ancestral Dragon Bone did not end there.
Because within the Ancestral Dragon Bone, there was the Ancestral Dragon Blood Essence.
This energy, combined with the dragon qi within Jun Xiaoyao, caused his dragon scale armor to undergo another transformation.
With a slight activation, a long, azure-golden dragon armor that fit his body perfectly materialized.
This dragon armor had more than ten times the defensive power compared to his previous dragon scale armor.
Wearing the dragon armor, Jun Xiaoyao had less of the ethereal aura of a celestial being and more of the cold, domineering presence of a war god.
At this moment, he resembled the true dragon prince of the Ancestral Dragon Nest even more than Long Haotian and the others.
"This dragon armor shall be called the Azure Sky Ancestral Dragon Armor," Jun Xiaoyao said with a faint smile.
Originally, this Azure Sky Ancestral Dragon Armor should have been a means that Xiao Chen could condense.
But since the dragon qi and the Supreme Ancestral Dragon Bone were both seized by Jun Xiaoyao, it instead became a boon for him.
