# Chapter 1139: Evolution

"A single slap landed, and a Greatly Accomplished King's head turned into pus and blood, becoming a pile of mud, dying a violent death!"

The battered mecha flickered with dim metallic luster, no longer bright, having lost its Dao marks and spiritual energy, becoming a waste artifact.

"No!" Xuan Mo screamed, his expression terrified, fleeing for his life, but how could he match Ye Fan's speed? He was caught up to in half a breath.

"Slap!"

Ye Fan's methods were extremely violent. A slap came down, instantly smashing half his face to pieces, his jaw flying off.

"Spare me, I am from the Xuan family of Eternal Main Star, you cannot kill me!" He screamed in terror, the other half of his face drained of all color, his legs trembling with fear, his calves cramping.

In this star domain, Immortal Feather, Primordial Demon, and Divine Earth were three smaller life-bearing planets, but Eternal was the boundless main star with vast territories, its grandeur extremely rare in the vast universe.

"You came looking for trouble again and again, and tonight you even came to ambush me, trying to take my life and steal my evolution liquid—what more is there to say!" Ye Fan raised his foot and stomped down.

"Boom"

This time, he showed no mercy like before, concealing nothing, deploying the combat power capable of slaughtering a Half-Saint. With one stomp, heaven and earth collapsed.

Blood rain scattered through the sky. Xuan Mo screamed as his body was stomped into four or five pieces, only a blood-stained head flying out.

"I submit! I'll do anything you ask, please spare my life!" The primordial spirit inside the head rushed out, trying to flee, but its strength was far too inferior to succeed.

"Your grand-uncle said it: geniuses die young!"

"I am no genius, I am stupid, please let me go." Xuan Mo, who usually acted arrogantly and domineeringly, even daring to scold and disregard the bald-headed subordinate of Fan Xian, was now utterly terrified.

"If you're not a genius, then you'll share the same fate as your grand-uncle!" Ye Fan said no more, stomping down, crushing both his primordial spirit and head into flying ash.

Moments later, the place was spotless, all traces vanished, and the seal laid down by the silver-eyed elder slowly dissolved.

In the distance, on a low mountain, Cao Qing gazed in this direction. Beside him stood an old servant, who shuddered when he saw the sealing power disappear.

"That old fellow is dead—he went in and never came out alive! Just what background does this person have, to kill a Greatly Accomplished King?" The old servant revealed a look of shock.

Cao Qing nodded, saying, "Indeed extraordinary. To eliminate this guy, we'd best use a Half-Saint, and we'd need to pilot a super saint mecha. I'm afraid ordinary saint artifacts won't subdue him."

In another direction, Fan Tian's red hair blazed like fire, his face full of sinister energy, standing atop the clouds, staring at Ye Fan's bamboo garden in the night sky.

"What a strong kid, taking out Xuan Mo's grand-uncle. A truly powerful opponent—what methods did he use?" he murmured to himself.

Fan Xian's beautiful eyes shimmered with strange brilliance, saying, "I told you long ago, his potential is enormous. He's still a rough gem, waiting to be developed. Of course, he could also be a double-edged blade that hurts both friend and foe. I must firmly grasp him in my hands!"

"Heh, my dear cousin's judgment is indeed sharp. I think we could have him marry into the family—he might even be a bit stronger than Cao Qing!" Fan Tian's face was full of sinister confidence.

"Fan Tian, stop spouting nonsense!" Fan Xian shot him a glance, swaying her supple waist like a water snake, and walked away gracefully, her snow-white long legs shimmering with crystalline luster, exceptionally alluring.

"Cousin, I'm serious. Rather than having him donate some of his Indestructible Golden Body essence blood, it would be better for you to marry him and give birth to a child with both the Golden Body and Battle Physique—a dual divine bloodline, the strongest constitution. That might be even better!"

"Hmph, take care of your own affairs first!" Fan Xian sneered, glancing at him with a trace of coldness before disappearing into the night sky.

In another patch of sky, several others were watching. Fan Zhou's eyes were deep, silent for a long time before vanishing from the void.

Ye Fan's expression was calm. He knew people were watching, for his spiritual perception was terrifyingly sharp and he could sense them, but he didn't bother to search them out.

"That old undying made a move against me—these people are probably delighted, all testing me."

He had no intention of staying in this place forever. Once he obtained what he wanted, he would leave without any attachment, without any hesitation.

"Soon. My goal is only the strongest evolution liquid, and now I have it. I can make more plans."

In the latter half of the night, all was silent. The stars and moon were bright, silver-white radiance cascading down. This place finally became completely quiet, all prying eyes gone.

Ye Fan pondered for a moment, then poured out the entire gourd of evolution liquid into a jade pool. The crystalline liquid was fragrant, transforming into wisps of immortal qi. He entered naked, sitting cross-legged inside, beginning to temper himself, undergoing the evolutionary process of the Eternal Kingdom.

This was a strange process, as if one could see stars extinguishing, leaving only the most divine and refined immortal nature slowly gathering. Countless star systems decayed, withered, and perished, then after billions of years of evolution and accumulation, their most primal divine natures combined, fused into one, forming rock bodies, casting divine stones—this was Heaven's Mandate Divine Rock.

Ye Fan immersed himself within, feeling the passage of ages, experiencing the flow of time, capturing the rise and fall of star domain after star domain, engraving the trajectory of the Dao beneath the starry sky.

The strongest bloodline evolution liquid was a miraculous existence. It could forcibly make one comprehend the Dao, understand the process of world evolution, and truly penetrate the primal source of the universe.

Ye Fan was without self, without objects, earnestly experiencing, his heart growing calmer. Outside his body, star system after star system appeared—worlds being born, flourishing, declining, decaying. This was the path to the Great Dao, starting from the most essential things of the world, comprehending bit by bit, slowly wading forward. His heart continuously gained enlightenment, his body glowing.

This was the strongest constitution evolution liquid. It did not simply temper the flesh but also purified the spiritual level, instilling Dao fragments, engraving eternal laws.

Every inch of flesh and blood in the human body was a treasure trove. If all were opened, a person's potential and divine abilities would be infinite and immeasurable, known as the Gate of Ten Thousand Wonders!

Ye Fan continuously experienced, seeing the fleshly treasure trove opening. Within the strongest evolution liquid, he truly felt the wonder of this primal source force, allowing himself to comprehend the Dao, sublimate, open the shackles of the flesh, and grow stronger.

"There's hope for advancement, another small step up, but I always feel something is missing, unable to break through..." he murmured to himself.

At this moment, various treasures were further opened or completely unsealed: the divine ability to move mountains and fill seas, the power to grasp the moon and stars, the spiritual perception of heavenly eyes and ears, the instinct to avoid misfortune and seek good fortune—many divine gates opened.

This was the strongest constitution evolution liquid, containing heaven-defying divine minerals, imprinting the essential law fragments of the world, allowing one to fully transcend and sublimate.

"This is the power of Primordial Life Stone, originating from Chaos, formed in the Primordial Era, nurturing the power of immortality!" Ye Fan further felt the power of this strange mineral within the liquid.

In that instant, it was as if he had traversed the primordial chaos of the universe, condensed the mysteries of heaven and earth, connected the ancient and future, gaining a deeper understanding of life and death.

On his body surface, strands of Dao patterns appeared, especially on his immortal platform forehead bone, extremely complex and profound, fine patterns like lines, as if splitting heaven and earth.

Suddenly, a tremor came from within his body. The "Presence" secret among the Nine Secrets activated on its own, billions of Dao marks appearing, achieving a major breakthrough during enlightenment.

This was originally an incomplete secret, not whole, but now as he comprehended the power of immortality and understood the fruit of life and death, he was unexpectedly touched. Inspiration came, and he spontaneously deduced the lost true meaning of the incomplete parts!

The "Presence" secret was further perfected. This was a miraculous power—he was actually repairing the regret of the Nine Secrets' incompleteness on his own. If this were to spread, it would surely shock the world.

The Presence secret was known as the Divine Spirit Ancient Scripture, holding the mystery of immortality. It was obtained from the Ziwei Ancient Star Domain, with the other half in Yin Tiande's hands. Ye Fan had always longed to collect it all, and now he glimpsed the dawn.

At the same time, he thought of a very terrifying question: just how extraordinary was the Primordial Ancient Mine? Did it contain the power of immortality?

Starlight and moonlight scattered down. Ye Fan's crown was crystalline, seeming to establish some connection with the starry universe, as if about to merge into one, becoming part of the Dao.

"Chi!" Ye Fan's brow flickered, and a golden little figure flew out, holding an ancient small cauldron, forcibly cutting off the beam of light rising from his crown, severing the connection with the starry universe.

"The human body is a world unto itself, with infinite divine treasures, capable of becoming the gate to all Daos, perhaps the foundation for attaining immortality." Immortals were imperishable, able to live forever, but star systems had a day of collapse. If this universe ceased to exist, how could everything within it survive?

Ye Fan observed various Dao fragments, but he did not want to rely on them, did not want to entrust his life to this universe. If he truly took that step and attained the Dao in the future, it would rely only on the human body universe, not attaching his life to this great world.

"Boom!"

A great sound erupted. He severed the connection between his own origin and the star systems, but did not block the manifestation of ancient stars beyond the domain and the scattering of divine radiance.

It was incomparably magnificent. Various lights cascaded down from the starry sky, responding to the Heaven's Mandate Divine Rock, countless divine radiances shining forth the universe's primal source.

Then, chaotic qi surged, splitting heaven and earth, resonating with the Primordial Life Stone. The power of life and death intermingled and extinguished, various lights flowing.

He severed his attachment to the vast heavens, but the departed, the existing, the eternal—all kinds of mysteries manifested beside him, transforming into Dao principles for him to observe and study.

Although it was the latter half of the night and this place was very quiet, this phenomenon still alarmed many people. Quite a few experts woke from their dreams.

Because this place was too magnificent—ten thousand beams of starlight, chaotic qi becoming waterfalls, various ancient star systems sinking and floating, surrounding Ye Fan, enshrining him at the center.

This was the primal aura of heaven and earth, the complex profound meanings, the manifestation of the world's essential divine principles. He was comprehending, not attaching or relying, but could draw lessons from them, his own Dao advancing.

"This guy is truly remarkable, more terrifying than I imagined. I've been underestimating him!" Fan Xian's expression changed. She had already valued him highly, but never expected to still underestimate Ye Fan, who was causing such a stir in Paradise.

"My dear cousin, has your heart been moved?" Fan Tian smirked sinisterly, but there was also a trace of coldness.

"Hmph, I can't be bothered with you!" Fan Xian's peerless immortal countenance regained its cold pride and confidence.
