’So this is what it feels like to have the control of the Heavenly Dao, huh?’

Song Wanning’s mind trembled as she looked down from above.

The Divine Beast Egg bounced around arrogantly. The Divine Nether Profound Fire surrounding it radiated in all directions, making the entire space unbearably hot.

Song Wanning felt as if her very Divine Soul was being scorched by the inferno, stoking the flames of anger and Evil Qi within her heart.

If she didn’t have control over this Sword Dao True Realm, her Divine Soul would have likely been burned already.

’The Divine Nether Profound Fire...’

’I want it!’

A dark glint flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, countless streams of Sword Intent swarmed from within the True Realm like a dense downpour, all aimed at the Divine Beast Egg.

At the same time, her own Dan Fire also swept toward the Divine Beast Egg.

If an ordinary person were here, they would have been turned into a human pincushion for sure.

But the Sword Intent struck the eggshell with a series of CLANGS, only to be deflected away with a cacophony of PINGS and CLATTERS the next moment.

Her Dan Fire was no match for the Divine Nether Profound Fire either. The instant they made contact, it writhed in pain and scurried back in a sorry state.

Song Wanning’s expression darkened. She quickly gathered her power, trying to use the spatial force to crush the Divine Beast Egg.

But all her efforts were like a stone sinking into the ocean.

"Hahaha, didn’t I tell you you were trash?"

The Divine Beast Egg grew even more arrogant. It had said it long ago—a mere human had no way of dealing with it!

Even if it was just an egg right now, it was a *Divine Beast* Egg!

"Hmph, trying to kill me? How ignorant! Do you have any idea how tough a Divine Beast Egg’s shell is?"

It looked around disdainfully. The human’s aura was everywhere, but it couldn’t pinpoint her exact location.

’She does have some skill!’

"Big Sister, it’s right. The shell of a Divine Beast Egg is comparable to an Immortal Artifact. I’m afraid we can’t do anything to it!"

The Golden Small Sword had its own inherited memories and knew some things that were not common knowledge in the Cultivation World.

As divine beasts had completely vanished hundreds of millions of years ago, Cultivators knew very little about them, and related records were pitifully scarce.

Song Wanning truly hadn’t expected the Divine Beast Egg’s shell to be so tough.

’Doesn’t that mean there’s nothing I can do to it?’

’No wonder the Divine Beast Egg dared to speak so brazenly...’

Her heart sank. The Evil Qi in her body suffused the depths of her eyes, quickly clouding her vision.

To be completely helpless against such an arrogant thing—this was an insult to her!

But all of this was still because her own strength was insufficient!

The thoughts in Song Wanning’s Sea of Consciousness began to spin rapidly.

She had never liked to admit defeat, and this time was no different.

’I have to find a way to kill this egg.’

As Song Wanning had said before, all things in creation both supported and countered one another. A Divine Beast Egg was blessed from birth with a noble bloodline, far surpassing all other living things in the world.

But the more powerful it was, the more restrictions the Heavenly Dao placed upon it. This was the only way to ensure the Heavenly Dao’s balance was maintained and not destroyed by such creatures.

’This Divine Beast Egg has been here for possibly hundreds of millions of years. There must be some way to suppress it...’

"What, scared stupid by me? If you’ve got the guts, then get your ass out here! See if I don’t whip you!"

Unable to find Song Wanning, the Divine Beast Egg frantically drove its Divine Nether Profound Fire to sweep through the True Realm.

"What kind of skill is hiding in the shadows? Get the hell out here for me!"

It shouted in a rage, already imagining over a hundred ways for Song Wanning to die.

Listening to the curses, Song Wanning’s expression remained unchanged. She even automatically tuned out its words.

Her mind was filled with the classic texts and private collections she had once read, trying to find a solution among them.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up as she recalled something the Divine Beast Egg had said.

"I’m not just bragging, but in my inherited memories, our clan has been on the Primordial Battlefield! Even that so-called Great Demon was nothing but trash!"

’The Primordial Battlefield!’

’The Heavenly God Tomb!’

The divine beasts went extinct right after that primordial war. This egg had been sealed for hundreds of millions of years without awakening, so it must also be related to that war.

Song Wanning let out a cold laugh, finding it more and more ironic.

’Just because he’s the "male lead," a Divine Beast Egg sealed for hundreds of millions of years can awaken...’

’The Heavenly Dao is far too biased!’

A mocking smile played on her lips as her Divine Soul instantly withdrew from the Sword Dao True Realm.

Because she had lost some of her Heart Blood, her complexion was pale, but her eyes held a hint of madness that was chilling to behold.

No matter how hard she tried, the Heavenly Dao was always attempting to fix everything...

If she couldn’t break the cycle time and time again, perhaps everything would return to the path of her previous life.

She would die, and the Song Family would be annihilated!

Countless torrents of hostility surged from the bottom of her heart. Demonic Qi swarmed out from her Sea of Consciousness, enveloping her completely.

Engulfed by killing intent, Song Wanning’s gaze drifted eerily toward a familiar symbol not far away.

No matter how biased the Heavenly Dao was, it couldn’t just "act recklessly." It had to maintain a certain balance and restraint, which was why "villains" like her existed.

Therefore, as long as she destroyed all of this step by step, she would have a chance to break free.

"Little thing, how about I send you inside to have some fun?"

She spoke suddenly, a sinister smile spreading across her face.

The Divine Beast Egg was stunned for a moment, then immediately broke free from the Sword Dao True Realm.

It followed Song Wanning’s gaze, and its heart instantly went cold.

"There might even be some of your ancestors in the Heavenly God Tomb. I’m sure you’d like to meet them, right?"

Song Wanning turned her head and stared eerily at the Divine Beast Egg, making it shudder violently.

"You... What are you trying to do?"

It was no longer so confident, and the panic in its tone was hard to conceal.

From the moment it regained consciousness, that symbol had been like a great mountain pressing down on its heart.

Just a single glance at it made its heart tremble.

It had once tried to leave this place, only to find it was unable to escape the cave, trapped in this one small corner...

Helpless, it could only sleep in the cave day after day.

Until one day, it felt a faint attraction to something...

Unable to resist, it unleashed its aura.

From that moment on, the demon beasts near the mountain went into a frenzy, rampaging frequently.

Those demon beasts all coveted its bloodline and wanted to devour it...

To ensure it could hatch safely, the Divine Beast Egg had no choice but to quickly restrain its aura and stay obediently in the cave.

Until it met Song Wanning.

Now, hearing Song Wanning mention the Heavenly God Tomb, it felt an instinctive fear...

That fear came from its Divine Soul, from its inherited memories...

It was even carved into its very bloodline.

The Divine Beast Egg’s unusual reaction did not escape Song Wanning’s notice.

Her eyes flickered.

’It seems my guess was right. The thing that has suppressed the Divine Beast Egg for hundreds of millions of years must be this Heavenly God Tomb.’

’It’s just that this location... is different from my past life.’

Song Wanning remembered the Heavenly God Tomb being in the territory of the Demon Clan...

"I’m not trying to do anything. The Heavenly God Tomb is the burial ground for the Heavenly Gods after their deaths. Your ancestors were once the lowly servants of the Heavenly Gods, so I’m just helping you acknowledge your roots. No need to thank me!"

With that, she immediately formed a hand seal. The surrounding space formed a great net, instantly entangling the Divine Beast Egg.

As she pushed forward, the Divine Beast Egg felt a force shoving it toward the symbol.

It was aghast and began to struggle for its life.

"You damn mutt, stop it right now! I told you to stop!!"
