Several Spatial-Temporal Horned Worms swam upstream against the flow of the spatial-temporal waters. Their speed was incredibly fast, treating the spatial-temporal flowing water as nothing. Their limbs could directly swim through spatial-temporal forces, and neither time nor space powers could affect them—instead, these forces actually accelerated their movement. With such innate abilities, if any single Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm appeared in the outside world, it would become an ultimate hunter. After an unknown amount of time, they approached the source of the water flow—the location of the nine-armed vortex. The giant Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm lying on the Spatial-Temporal Supreme Treasure while devouring its power slightly turned its head and transmitted a thought: "Little ones, what brings you here?" "Ancestor, Ancestor! We discovered a special mineral vein! Those ores are very helpful for our growth!" One of the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worms quickly took out large quantities of ore from its abdominal cavity. The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor curled its antennae, and these ores were sucked into its mouth to be chewed, then swallowed into its stomach after a few bites. Then, its eyes lit up: "Good ores! They're helpful even for my cultivation. The spatial-temporal power within them is extremely fresh, seemingly complementing my insights." It immediately commanded: "Go collect more ores for me!" "Reporting to Ancestor, these ores are currently occupied by a traitor! We... we can't seize them!" that Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm said pitifully. "Oh?" The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor was startled, immediately understanding. No wonder these little worms were willing to seek him out—they couldn't win the competition. "That traitor has also reached the Ancestral Level, and has reached the mid-stage at that! Probably because it has been living near the mineral vein and devoured many ores, that's how its strength broke through to such a realm!" The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor nodded. These ores were extremely useful for their species. Some of the higher-grade ones were effective even for it, let alone other clan members. It hesitated as it looked at the supreme treasure before it. It wasn't comfortable leaving the treasure here, but it genuinely needed those ores very much. What should it do? The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor examined these little worms and found they had all reached the peak of the Mature Stage, just one step away from reaching the Ancestral Level. These fellows must have devoured quite a few ores too, otherwise they couldn't have improved so quickly! "Come over here and take a few bites of this treasure's essence!" the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor snorted coldly. "Thank you, Ancestor!" Several horned worms became very excited and immediately came to the ancestor's side. With the ancestor's help, they began devouring the treasure's essence. The rich spatial-temporal power they consumed actually loosened the bottlenecks that had been blocking them. Su Yuan, who was secretly observing, was even more astonished. This was the trend of breaking through to Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal! Where did these worms get their Law Root Qi from? Wait! Su Yuan looked at that Spatial-Temporal Supreme Treasure. This was a Mid-grade Innate Supreme Treasure! The essence contained within it might already be equivalent to Law Root Qi, or even surpass Law Root Qi! A Mid-grade Innate Supreme Treasure was already similar to a source itself. The essence flowing from it could be used to prove the Dao and achieve Hunyuan—this wasn't very difficult to understand. But such consumption was absolutely wasteful! This was the essence of a Heavenly Dao Supreme Treasure (Mid-grade Innate Supreme Treasure). Losing even one portion would be extremely difficult to replenish, and it might very well be impossible to ever recover it! No wonder this supreme treasure still hadn't fully formed. Countless years had passed since the God Realm Sea was created, yet it remained in its gestation stage. As Su Yuan quietly observed, he saw that two of the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worms, after devouring the essence, actually broke through to the Hunyuan Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and they advanced in both Time Law and Space Law simultaneously! This was somewhat outrageous! Su Yuan sighed. These worms' cultivation environment was truly uniquely advantaged, and their own bloodlines were extremely powerful. One could say they were dual favorites of both Time Law and Space Law. After the two Spatial-Temporal Horned Worms completed their advancement, the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor sealed the supreme treasure. "You two, guard this treasure properly! I'm going to check out that mineral vein!" "Yes! Ancestor!" The two newly advanced Ancestral-level Spatial-Temporal Horned Worms responded with exceptional excitement. The other three Spatial-Temporal Horned Worms that failed to advance could only droop their long horns as they led the ancestor to the mining area. When the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor arrived at the Spatial-Temporal Continent and saw the massive land, it was also startled. It hadn't expected that during its long absence, this place had evolved into a complete world. The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor didn't think too much about it, assuming this was the result of long-term evolution, so it had no doubts. Meanwhile, the three Mature Stage horned worms were in low spirits and didn't have the mind to explain these matters. When the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor reached the outskirts of that mineral vein, it immediately sensed another Ancestral-level Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm lying at the entrance of a cave. Simultaneously, it also saw this complete mineral vein. The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor was extremely delighted. The deeper it went, the higher the quality of the ores. The core ores would be very beneficial even for it, capable of complementing its shortcomings. From within that deep cave, even richer spatial-temporal fluctuations seemed to emanate, clearly indicating greater benefits inside. The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor grew excited and said to that Ancestral-level Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm: "Junior, yield this mineral vein!" Su Yuan's clone "woke up" with a start and looked at the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor: "Ancestor, I found this place! This is my territory, you can't take it!" "Hmph, the blood flowing in your veins was propagated by me! Now that I'm asking you to offer up a mineral vein, you dare to be so disobedient? You deserve death! I'll give you one more chance! Think carefully!" "Ancestor, no! This is my lair!" Su Yuan's clone immediately retorted. A sharp glint flashed in the Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor's eyes: "It seems I haven't taken action for so long that junior worms no longer know how formidable this ancestor is!" The sharp horn on its head immediately emitted a simple, unadorned white light containing terrifying spatial-temporal power. Instantly, it tore through space and enveloped Su Yuan's clone. Su Yuan only felt time power and space power, in an indescribably mysterious manner, firmly pinning him in place. Even if he resisted with all this clone's means, there was no ability to resist at all. Not even the thought of resistance could arise, because at this moment, that clone's very thinking had frozen solid! The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor flashed and appeared beside Su Yuan's clone. After examining him, it said with contempt in its eyes: "Little worm, so disobedient! First, imprisonment for a hundred million years!" It pushed aside Su Yuan's clone and then began feasting voraciously. Large quantities of ore entered its mouth, and its aura clearly began to rise! The spiritual light in its eyes grew increasingly bright—it felt it was getting closer and closer to the next realm! However, soon the mineral vein was mostly consumed. Looking at the remaining main body of the mineral vein, it still restrained the impulse to devour it. The Spatial-Temporal Horned Worm Ancestor still had some concept of sustainable development—if it ate any more, the mineral vein wouldn't be able to continue growing autonomously. Therefore, it turned its gaze toward that cave entrance.
