“Of course, isn’t your disciple worrying on behalf of Master?”
With his hands covered in ink, Qingcang rubbed Gu Wen’s head, the cheesy words and ink causing the latter to step back disdainfully, yet he couldn’t break free due to his inadequate cultivation.
He returned to his room to cultivate, entering ditation.
[Expended three thousand years of Heavenly Marrow, comprehended the Undying Taoist Body]
————————————
In the eighth year of the Xia Dynasty, Bianjing saw a surge of the Spiritual Spring, yielding five thousand years’ worth of Emperor’s Elixir.
Jiang Jucai worked tirelessly to usher in a prosperous era, illuminating Bianjing day and night, which earned it the moniker City of Eternal Day.
Qingcang worked almost non-stop for three years, creating a million printing artifacts.
When the work was completed, the accumulated Copper Mountain was taller than the palace walls.
He then handed them over to Wu Kong, who would bring them to the Immortal Land, to be distributed amongst various cities across the realms by the Sanqing Taoist Sect.
Gu Wen said, “Master, I fear these will only gather dust.”
Printing artifacts were crucial for civilization but served no purpose for cultivators.
Cultivators communicated through jade slips, which functioned like hard drives, capable of storing texts, images, and even insights into cultivation techniques.
Qingcang smiled and said, “No matter, I only hope that if future generations want to pursue enlightennt, they have a path they can follow.
I don’t expect them to beco satiated just by obtaining the Five Spirits Valley.”
Gu Wen returned to his room to cultivate, internally viewing his Qi Sea.
The required Immortal Mountain for the Dao Foundation Perfection of Nine Levels had ford, and only steps remained.
[Expended five hundred years of Heavenly Marrow, movent technique Xuan Yue Sword Step fulfilled, Sword Step Divine Skill achieved]
[Expended five hundred years of Heavenly Marrow, Xuanling Body Protection Skill fulfilled, Xuanwu Divine Skill]
[Expended five hundred years of Heavenly Marrow, Green Jade Skill fulfilled, inner breath turned tortuous, exhaling as a dragon]
[Cultivated three techniques: movent, protection, healing—all fulfilled]

In the twelfth year of Da Xia.
Qingcang suddenly had a novel idea and asked Gu Wen, “Disciple, historically those in power have been cultivators or their spokespeople.
What do you think, can we let the common people elect their own leaders once their spiritual wisdom is fully developed?”
Hearing this, Gu Wen couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Master, you’re thinking too far ahead.
Why not ntion a society where everything is owned collectively and distributed according to need?”
“Good aspiration, disciple, but what you propose is even less practical than your master’s idea,” retorted Qingcang, who then teasingly mocked Gu Wen, leading to a lively debate between them.
Among their exchanges was the statent, “The common people are ignorant; thus, to realize a system akin to elections, there must be a way to inform them about worldly affairs.”
This statent sparked various associations in Qingcang, who then turned her attention to tinkering with sothing else.
That year, Yun Miao incarnated as a mortal to seek out Gu Wen.
The two sat opposite each other, and Yun Miao straightforwardly said, “I’ve co to discuss the upcoming division of the Three Pure Ones.”
“Why divide?”
Gu Wen was puzzled, and Yun Miao explained, “In the future, there’ll be no more Three Pure Mountain; a single Spirit Vein isn’t enough to sustain so many cultivators.
Master Qingcang instructed us to split.”
“Sanqing Taoist Sect will soon decentralize three top-grade Spirit Veins, anticipated to fall into Bihua Continent, Xuanhuang Continent, and Yunyin Continent.
As Yuqing Sect has contributed significantly, you’re given the priority to choose.”
“May I ask which is the best location?”
“Xuanhuang Continent.”
“Then I choose Xuanhuang Continent.”
“I will propose this choice in the Jade Palace, and once you beco an Immortal, if you can recreate Three Pure Mountain, perhaps the sect can be revived.”
Yun Miao left, and soon after, the senior Venerable Yun Qing from Yuqing Sect also ca to discuss the division matter with him.
How Yuqing Sect would operate in the future, how to select disciples, and managing the nearby cities were all things Gu Wen hadn’t yet dealt with, so he entrusted it all to Yun Qing.
The Immortal was about to pass away, and the Three Pure Ones would separate.
In the autumn season, leaves fell in the courtyard, and an indescribable desolation erged.
Gu Wen returned to his room to cultivate.
He was one step away from achieving Nine-nine Perfection, but he wasn’t in a rush; instead, he turned to re-cultivate the Sun Skill.
[Expended nine hundred years of Heavenly Marrow, Sun Skill fulfilled.]
[Taiyin Taiyin forms the Two Instrunts, birthing myriad forms, Yin and Yang unite]

In the thirteenth year of Da Xia, cultivation began in the Five Spirits Valley.
Inside and outside of the Immortal Land, the Human Race experienced one bountiful year after another, as if the harvest would never cease in the Human Race’s lands.
Gu Wen continued his cultivation, oblivious to external matters.
In the fourteenth year of Da Xia, Qingcang’s complete set of bio-engraving and printing began widespread use in Da Xia; extraterrestrial magic treasures for printing appeared in so cities, and books and reading materials gradually beca cheaper and more widespread.
Although reading was still not sothing the ordinary people could afford, so rural families gritted their teeth to ensure their children could attend school.
The social atmosphere beca enlightened, and the governance of the court was strict, presenting a prosperous and peaceful era.
In the fifteenth year of Da Xia.
Qingcang invented a small gadget, the Spiritual Communication Device, capable of transmitting thoughts over a hundred miles.
This gadget existed in the Cultivation World, but the version created by Qingcang was extrely cheap, cheap enough to be purchased with gold and silver.
“How will the mortals use it with thought transmission?”
With these words from Gu Wen, Qingcang researched tirelessly night and day for several months, innovating again and again.
The Spiritual Communication Device increased in size tenfold, a half-ter tall board split into two sections; the top displayed the transmitted content, and the bottom allowed for handwritten text.
It was rudintary, but with this prototype, future generations would have a blueprint if they wanted to develop it further.
Then, Qingcang ventured into dicine, directing the Daoist Sect to gather scattered dical texts from around the world, assembling True Monarchs of dicine, compiling a dical treatise after three years nad “Commoner’s dical Principles.”
In the eighteenth year of Da Xia.
Qingcang had been awake for six thousand nights due to continuous research and learning, her divine thoughts constantly enveloping the Human Race’s land.
Even she was ntally exhausted.
Yet she was still pondering, always considering what more she could do for the people, what legacy she could leave for the Human Race, and what troubles the Human Race might encounter in the future.
Gu Wen could only watch as a figure worthy of being called a great person neared death.
Sotis, he sinisterly thought that perhaps in the end, there would be regrets.
Then, he took Yu Hua and fled far away, for the world was vast, where could they not go?
