Five Elents Cave Heaven, Yu State East Domain, Qixia Mountain Range South Slope.
At dawn, within the valley surrounded by mountains, the ground suddenly shook violently. Countless rocks rolled down from the mountain, producing a thunderous rumble akin to an earthquake.
"This... this is an earthquake! Quickly get up!" Dozens of n and won, young and old, living in the valley, rushed out of their hos and gathered in the open space outside.
Just as everyone was still in shock, a thunderous roar erupted from the ground. Imdiately, the distant Qixia Peak collapsed with a bang, and a bright yellow beam of light shot up into the sky, penetrating the clouds and illuminating the ancient forests and mountains within a radius of a thousand miles.
The light pillar reached from the heavens to the earth, massive like a pillar holding up the sky, making the surrounding mountains appear insignificantly small.
After lasting for several breaths, the bright yellow light pillar burst apart, transforming into a canopy of light clouds that swept in all directions.
At this mont, the seven or eight beams of tunneling light hovering above the valley descended back to the ground.
As the radiance faded, seven or eight people appeared. The leader was an old man with a youthful face and white hair, holding a dragon head crutch, while the others were young n and won, all above Foundation Establishnt cultivation.
Gazing at the swiftly approaching sea of radiant clouds, the faces of these young n and won were all filled with excitent.
"Grandfather, first the earth shook, then there was the spiritual energy eruption phenonon; there must be a heavy treasure erging at Qixia Mountain. Let’s hurry to Qixia Mountain." A handso young man said excitedly to the white-haired old man.
Others also nodded in agreent, eager to give it a try.
"Do not act rashly. This phenonon might indeed indicate the ergence of a treasure, but it could also just be an earthquake." The white-haired old man said calmly, eyeing the rolling spiritual energy.
The white-haired old man’s na was Zhao Tianyue, having migrated into the Five Elents Cave Heaven for nearly two hundred years.
After years of exploration and experience, Zhao Tianyue knew that treasures were abundant in the Five Elents Cave Heaven. The dragon head crutch in his hand was a powerful ancient treasure he had accidentally found a century ago.
Since breaking through to Nascent Soul a hundred years ago, he had been living in seclusion with his partner on the southern slope of the Qixia Mountain Range, eventually forming a cultivation family with less than a hundred people.
At this mont, two more beams of tunneling light flew from the south, soon landing in the valley. Two young cultivators appeared, both in white robes, with one male and one female, both possessing Golden Core Realm strength.
"It’s, Grandfather and Grandmother have arrived." A young man behind Zhao Tianyue whispered to the person beside him.
The newcors quickly approached, and the group of young n and won bowed in greeting, calling out Grandfather, Grandmother, and other familial titles.
Zhao Tianyue greeted the in-laws, then pointed in the direction of Qixia Mountain, asking, "Xuanhe, my brother, what do you think?"
Zhao Xuanhe first glanced at his partner, then smiled and said, "My wife and I will heed big brother’s wisdom."
Zhao Tianyue paused with his dragon head crutch, looking solemn, "If it’s just an ordinary earthquake, that would be one thing. But seeing such a phenonon, there is likely a heavy treasure erging. Such an opportunity is rare, and we should not miss it. Xuanhe, my brother, shall we go explore together?"
"Alright, there’s no ti to lose; let’s move imdiately!" Zhao Xuanhe promptly agreed.
The couple had been in Perfect Golden Core for years, just lacking an opportunity to break through.
This opportunity is rare and close at hand; it must not be missed!
Zhao Tianyue called upon three Golden Core descendants, then threw out the dragon head crutch.
The crutch flew into the sky and transford into a hundred-foot-long golden dragon, glittering with golden light and scales, swirling in mid-air.
Zhao Tianyue and five others flew onto the back of the golden dragon, and after a dragon’s roar, the hundred-foot-long golden dragon charged into the light cloud, disappearing without a trace.
...
Days passed, and the Zhao Clan mbers cultivating near the Qixia Mountain Range gathered at the main peak of Qixia Mountain, swiftly searching the surroundings after landing, soon finding the nearby terrain expanding rapidly.
Mountains rose one by one, and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Ancient Magical Artifacts buried deep underground continuously surfaced, eventually being picked up by the lucky ones.
Of course, skirmishes inevitably occurred over the treasures, but as they were all kin, no one would strike with lethal force.
As ti passed, the Qixia Mountain Range expanded by several thousand miles again, with nurous new mountains and valleys appearing, and seven or eight active volcanoes erupting day and night, covering half the mountain range in rolling black smoke.
The changes in Qixia Mountain were rely a small reflection of the great transformation of the Yu Zhou continent. More geological changes occurred in the uninhabited wilderness.
As Yu State continued to expand, the other five continents also underwent earth-shaking changes under the control of Zhao Sheng.
...
In the Five Elents Cave Heaven above the boundless Cloud Sea, Zhao Sheng had been sitting there for over two hundred years.
Before him hovered a "planet" shrunken by billions of tis.
Looking at it, this star not only possessed a complete atmosphere but also six landmasses of varying sizes, with the ocean covering sixty percent of the planet’s surface, appearing a deep blue.
Zhao Sheng focused intently on the "tiny planet" before him, his gaze changing occasionally.
As his thoughts shifted, subtle transformations occurred within the land of the planet.
Ten years passed in a flash, and the "planet" actually grew slightly larger.
Zhao Sheng’s focus was entirely on the Five Elents Cave Heaven, having already lost sight of the passage of ti.
One day, ten years later, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Zhao Sheng awoke instantly, looking up at the arrival, only to find it was another "himself."
"You’re back. How was the haul this ti?" Zhao Sheng familiarly greeted the Avatar.
The Avatar smiled slightly, needing no words; all its experiences over the years instantly transford into a torrent of information, transmitting into the main body’s mind.
Zhao Sheng’s mouth gradually upturned as he quickly assimilated the torrent of information, understanding all of the Avatar’s experiences over the years.
At this mont, Mu Zha flew out from his sleeve: "Mu Zha greets the Master!"
"This ti, I brought you a whole load of treasures... Oh, and two Mount-bearing Dragon Turtles."
Mu Zha flew to Zhao Sheng’s side, then reached into its own body.
Then, it withdrew its right hand and threw a ball of clear light into the Cloud Sea below.
The clear light dispersed into thousands of beams, shooting toward the Six Continents and Four Seas.
Soon, "treasure rains" unexpectedly fell over the six continents and the four vast oceans, scattering Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures randomly across the continents and depths of the oceans, waiting for future discoverers.
At the sa ti, two Mount-bearing Dragon Turtles as enormous as mountains crashed into the sea. This vast ocean is the largest area of the Five Elents Cave Heaven, ideal for dragon turtles to inhabit and breed.
Following that, tens of thousands of tons of various algae descended from the sky, scattering continuously across various sea regions.
Witnessing this, Zhao Sheng’s eyes flickered slightly. His boundless Divine Thought quietly enveloped the entire Grotto Heaven, starting to adjust the water temperature, quality, and Spiritual Energy concentration of the Four Seas to make it closer to the optimal environnt for algae reproduction.
Countless sea beasts, under so call, frantically swam toward the place where the two Mount-bearing Dragon Turtles had fallen.
The two young turtles quickly adapted to the surrounding environnt and began to frantically devour the myriad Sea Gods that presented themselves.
Above the Cloud Sea, a dazzlingly colorful Light Ball slowly erged from the brow of Zhao Sheng’s avatar.
The Light Ball floated towards the main body and instantly rged into the Purple Mansion between the brows.
Zhao Sheng’s face changed slightly, promptly closing his eyes to fully "digest" this Light Ball containing the "mory" of evolution over a million years in the Red Sea Realm.
The avatar, seeing this, imdiately called Mu Zha back to his side, then took over the control of the Grotto Heaven, continuing to observe the various evolutions of the Five Elents Cave Heaven.
...
At the extre north of the Hongsi Spirit Realm, lies a vast and boundless Cold Plain.
A thick lead-gray cloud layer covers the entire sky, and fan-sized snowflakes are swirling down.
Above the serene white Cold Plain, an old man in a white robe with white hair appeared out of nowhere.
The white-haired old man’s appearance was extrely peculiar, with a lump of flesh protruding from the center of his smooth forehead, three crystal clear long whiskers on each side of his cheeks, and eyes as large as copper bells shooting Divine Light during the opening and closing.
The mont he returned to the Spirit Realm, he imdiately fell upon the ground, then sat cross-legged, completely disregarding the extrely harsh environnt here.
However, just one breath passed, and he suddenly opened his eyes, abruptly looking toward the western horizon.
The next mont, his figure flashed and disappeared without a trace.
Several hundred miles away, a slender figure silently erged, none other than Zhao Sheng, who had been tracking from the Lower Realm.
What he didn’t expect... was that as soon as he stabilized his form, a strange-looking old man with white robe and white hair appeared not far away.
"Is it you?!" The white-haired elder looked at him incredulously, emitting a hoarse and unpleasant sound like a night owl.
"Morri, please listen to my—" Zhao Sheng smiled bitterly, imdiately opened his mouth to explain.
He never imagined that as soon as he entered this realm, his tracks would be detected by Moli Jueye, also an Immortal Ruins Guest, who tracked him down on the spot.
However, the enraged and surprised Moli Jueye didn’t want to listen to his explanation. Cold Light erupted from him, instantly transforming this vast Cold Plain into his domain.
In a fraction of a mont, the world slowed down incredibly, and nurous crystal-clear ice cones erged out of nowhere, shooting toward Zhao Sheng like lightning.
Zhao Sheng waved his sleeve, and the omnipresent ice cones instantly stalled in mid-air, then shattered into pieces.
"Ow..."
Only hearing Moli Jueye let out a sharp wail, the Power of Ice Law perating between heaven and earth instantly fell upon Zhao Sheng, imdiately freezing him into an ice sculpture.
"Boom"
With a dire sound, the ice sculpture exploded, and the thick cloud layer was instantly blasted into a massive void.
The Power of Ice Law was dispelled by scorching flas, yet Zhao Sheng’s figure was nowhere to be found.
The next mont, Moli Jueye abruptly looked toward the big hole in the sky, a trace of astonishnt in his eyes.
In that void, a colossal Bronze Ancient Realm had unknowingly appeared, from which Zhao Sheng erged.
The Ancient Mirror clearly reflected the frigid ground below, as well as Moli Jueye’s figure.
"Freeze!" Zhao Sheng’s expression slightly darkened, pointing at Moli Jueye while lightly shouting.
Moli Jueye’s heart trembled violently, internally exclaiming "Not good."
Yet as he attempted to dodge, it was already too late.
The Central Earth Mirror radiated brilliantly, its light instantly covered a thousand miles’ space-ti, and the suprely pure Power of Laws pressed the "weight" of the thousand-mile Cold Plain all onto Moli Jueye.
Despite his profound Daoist attainnt, he was suffocated by the gravity, his body heavily slamd into the ground.
When he freed himself from shackles and erged from underground, he was disappointingly aware that Zhao Sheng had long vanished.
"Damn it!" Moli Jueye was both surprised and furious, feeling utterly puzzled, completely clueless about how the opponent managed to enter the Hongsi Spirit Realm, what thod did he employ?
...
Five Elents Cave Heaven, above the Cloud Sea.
Zhao Sheng had just returned to the Cave Heaven, instantly detected by another avatar.
"Tsk tsk, you’ve co back at such a tily mont! How were the gains this ti?"
Although being avatars, the two had distinct experiences, leading to subtly different personalities and perceptions.
The two avatars secretly competed, each trying to suppress the other.
It’s undeniable that the initial version of "One Qi Transforms Three Pure Ones" is ultimately imperfect. If separated for a long ti, each avatar develops new "personality" and understanding.
Zhao Sheng was aware of the pros and cons, therefore frequently summoned the two avatars back to his side while temporarily postponing nurturing the third avatar.
Seeing the main body in ditation, after a few bantering exchanges, the two avatars began their respective tasks with mutual understanding.
One continued observing the Grotto Heaven operation, while the other summoned the Central Earth Mirror, instructing it to scatter the treasures collected over these years throughout the Cave Heaven.
Simultaneously, he took out the latest collection of more than two thousand Dao Golden Pearls, distributing several hundred to the other avatar.
As he began comprehending the Tao True Text within the Golden Pearls, the other avatar also captured a Dao Golden Pearl, similarly appreciating the profound True Text.
