Zhang Yan flew into the sky and quickly arrived outside the Azure Sky Hall. With a thought, the array door opened and he stepped into the inner room. Whoosh.
As soon as they landed, many spiritual birds descended from the sky and turned into beautiful women in colorful clothes. All of them knelt on the ground, and one of them with crescent-shaped eyebrows said, "We greet the Palace Master and wish the Palace Master a long life."
Zhang Yan looked around. The scene in the Azure Sky Hall was very different from the last time he left. But it was full of life and was thriving. He knew that these demon servants took care of the temple every day and looked after the plants. In addition, there was the Heaven and Earth Fetus spitting spiritual vigor here. That was why it was like this. He asked the woman, "What is your name?"
The woman lowered her head and said, "I was enlightened by Zhenren Han in the past and was able to transform. Now, I am temporarily a steward. The sisters below me call me Miss Su. But without the permission of the Hall Master, I dare not give myself a name."
Zhang Yan thought for a while and said, "Now that you have returned, the atmosphere here has changed. You have done a good job as a steward. How about I give you a name, Su Su?"
Miss Su was pleasantly surprised. She knelt down and said, "Thank you, Master, for giving me a name."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Bring everyone and leave. I am here to cultivate. If you see any movement later, don't be surprised. Just guard the hall's restrictive array."
Miss Su bowed deeply and said yes. Then, she left with the group of servants.
Zhang Yan came to the highest pavilion and stood there quietly. He looked down and not only could he see the mountains and continents, he could also see all the spiritual vigor veins on the nine continents.
The three western continents were very dim in his eyes. Donglai Continent was isolated beyond the sea. It was hard to notice. Compared to the two, Dongsheng Continent was much better. Like a candle in a room, the surroundings were bathed in its light.
In this realm, only the four continents of Dong Hua were overflowing with spiritual light and auspicious air. Little by little, the sunken vortexes invaded the spiritual vigor there, knowing that every spot was where the Daoist Dongtian was. It could be seen that the momentum of this spiritual opportunity had turned from prosperity to decline. In the near future, it would definitely go downhill.
Seeing this scene, he could understand what Sect Leader Qin had said that day. Unless there were only a few Daoist Masters in the world, the spiritual vigor of the Nine Continents would decline one day, and that day was not far away.
However, if a battle broke out between Daoist Grotto-Heavens. All the continents might not be safe. If they were not careful, the sect might face the danger of losing its inheritance. Going to the other world to find a place that had just begun to flourish was indeed a good choice.
However, this matter had already been planned by several generations of the Qincang School's Headmaster, so he didn't need to worry too much about it until that moment arrived. Right now, all he needed to do was to increase his own cultivation as much as possible.
He removed the pouch from his sleeves. He sat down on the praying mat and released his Divine Will. He silently sensed the changes in this world.
The changes of the world were endless, and the cycle was endless. There was damage and there was replenishment, there was deficiency and there was fullness. During this period of time, there would be collapses and cracks that would appear. This was called the Xuankong Cave by the cultivators.
If a cultivator wanted to open up a Grotto-Heaven, he would need to unleash his mana and use his Divine Will to sense the spiritual vigor to find such a place. Once there was a harvest, he would need to invade it with a trace of his Divine Will mana and chase after it. Then, he would slowly squeeze in more of his own Qi of vitality. After a long time, it would become the seed of his own Grotto-Heaven.
According to the records, this step was called the Spirit Fishing Pearl.
As a Grotto-Heaven seed, there was a difference in quality. If one was lucky enough to obtain such a good place, it would be easy for the cultivator to open up a Grotto-Heaven. If one's luck was not good, he would have to put in more effort.
After sensing it for a while, Zhang Yan found that it was indeed so. There was no exaggeration in the description. The "Mysterious Void Nether Hole" was often fleeting, and there were often no rules to follow. However, it was not easy to sense it, let alone distinguish between them.
This had nothing to do with the strength of the cultivator's mana. It only depended on one's luck and whether one could grasp the real opportunity.
Usually, this process would last for years or even decades. Once one found the target, one must not give up halfway. If one's luck was bad, it was possible to wait for hundreds of years.
To him, waiting for a few years was nothing. However, he had a better idea now.
He silently chanted in his heart and one of his arms suddenly turned into rolling smoke. It slowly rose to a high altitude and turned into a palm. The palm lines were clear and the outline was firm. Just by looking at it, one could tell that it contained boundless power. He lifted it slightly and slammed it heavily into the void.
Rumble!
With the palm as the center, the sky within a hundred miles was broken. Even the peak of the mountain was affected. A piece of it was missing and a clear palm mark was left.
However, the strange thing was that the living beings on the peak did not feel anything strange. It was as if this place was supposed to be like this.
Zhang Yan released his divine will and scanned the area. The moment the palm slammed down, he sensed several Xuankong Caves appearing one after another. Though they only existed for a short moment, they did appear. He nodded and thought to himself, "It seems like this method is feasible."
Before he opened the grotto-heaven, he had thought about it. Since qi path cultivators could do this, could strength path cultivators do the same?
After he merged the five transformations of strength path, his consciousness naturally gained many methods. It was as if they were imprinted in his body. One of them had the ability to collapse the void. If he cultivated it to the sixth transformations, he would be able to break through the barrier of the two realms with just his physical body and ascend.
Though he did not have such ability, it was enough for him to cause slight changes in heaven and earth. It was enough for him to find a suitable seed in a short period of time.
In the next few months, as he continued to crash into the void, he finally found a suitable place. He then infused his divine will and vitality into it.
He knew that it was a crucial moment. He adjusted his breathing and started to circulate the technique. Soon, his body was surrounded by lightning and his figure became faintly discernible.
He felt like he was in water. His body was sinking, but at the same time, he seemed to be floating in the air and rising. He could feel that his body was going infinitely far away and gradually breaking away from this world.
If reaching the second level of Grotto-Heaven was to better harmonize with heaven and earth, then opening the grotto-heaven was to get rid of this shackle so that he could finally transcend this world and go to the other side.
First it was harmonization, then it was repulsion. And the path below. It was just walking along this path.
At this moment, he could not help but understand. No wonder when he saw Zhuo Yuming and Zhenren Yuling, they seemed to be in this world, but at the same time, they were not.
After a while, a thunderous sound suddenly came from the hall. He disappeared from the world without a trace.
At this moment, he had already arrived at an indescribable place. At this moment, he felt a boundless force coming from all directions, as if it wanted to crush him. However, this force did not come from the outside, but from his own body.
At this moment, he had already entered the Inner World. According to the predecessors, once he entered this place, he should do his best to open his Dharma Form. This was to protect his Dharma Form. Otherwise, if he was not careful, he would be crushed and killed by his own Dharma Power.
In the records of the third Sect Leader, it was warned that cultivators should not open their grotto-heaven when they were weak and should try to open it when their Dharma Power was full. Otherwise, it was very likely that they would be trapped in the Inner World.
Although he had never heard of anyone from the Heavenly Abode being trapped in this place, since it was mentioned in such a serious manner in the records, it would not be without reason.
However, he was not afraid at all. The Body of Strength relied on one's own physical body. After comprehending for a moment, he let out a loud roar. Although there was not the slightest sound coming from this place, his body grew along with it. His head went up and his feet stepped down. He continued to support and expand this Inner World.
Only when he could no longer hold on any longer did he release his Dharma Form. Roiling Chaotic Xuan Qi spread out in all directions, expanding the domain even further.
After an unknown period of time, he felt that his Dharma Power was almost exhausted. Only then did he stop.
Looking over, this place was empty and empty. He knew that this grotto-heaven had been opened successfully. Looking at the vast and clear spiritual energy here, it could be called the Spirit Splendor Grotto-Heaven.
However, he could not relax at this step. In the future, he still needed to adjust his Dharma Power to stabilize the domain. Otherwise, when he returned to the place where he came from, the spiritual opportunity would be connected. After a long time, it would slowly be assimilated by the Outer World of the Nine Continents and would not leave any traces. Not to mention that it would be a waste of effort, he would have to start all over again.
There were many methods that could be used. However, the simplest one was to use a trace of Clear Purple Qi and suppress it with a magic treasure. This way, the spiritual opportunity would not spread out.
He was already prepared for this. He closed his eyes and circulated his Dharma Power for a moment. A rumbling sound came from his body and the next moment, he appeared in the Green Sky Hall.
The Inner True Grotto-Heaven could only move according to the changes of the Heaven and Earth. It was easy to enter one's own grotto-heaven. However, once one came out, it might not be at the original place. It might be thousands of miles away.
Only the physical body or spirit would be left outside. Usually, it would be placed in the mountain gate. As long as one could sense it, it could be used as a guide to return safely.
However, the Spirit Splendor Grotto-Heaven did not have such restrictions. Therefore, Zhang Yan could return to the original place.
Once he arrived in the Nine Continents, he immediately felt the spiritual opportunity pouring into his body. That was because wherever he was, the door of the grotto-heaven would be there. Just Now, going back and forth between the two places was the communication between the Inner World and the Outer World. He needed to constantly swallow the spiritual opportunity from the outside to nourish the newly opened grotto-heaven.
During this process, unless he was willing to use his Dharma Power to stop, he would only stop when the grotto-heaven was full of spiritual opportunity.
Zhang Yan raised his hand and picked up the sleeve that he had left behind. With a thought, he returned to the grotto-heaven in the blink of an eye.
He took out the Mountain River Cloud Diagram from his sleeve and threw it out. With a flash of spiritual light, it turned into a boy. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Master."
Zhang Yan said with his hands behind his back, "Mountain River Child, you will guard this place from now on."
Mountain River Child bowed deeply and said, "I will follow Master's orders."
Zhang Yan flicked his finger and sent the Origin Energy Stone over. He said, "This stone is also a treasure. There is a strand of Purple Clear spiritual opportunity in it. It can be used to control one's own spiritual opportunity. I will pass it to you now."
Mountain River Child said, "I will not disappoint Master."
Zhang Yan nodded his head. He slightly circulated his Dharma Power and came out of the grotto-heaven.
He flew down the light and came to a high mountain outside the hall. He walked up the stairs and finally arrived in front of an altar. There were fourteen altars here and there were strands of bright medicinal liquid. It was only one layer, but looking at it, it felt like it was infinitely deep.
He took a few steps forward and came to the altar in the middle. He raised his hand and immediately, a ray of light rose up.
After a while, Sect Leader Qin's figure appeared. He held a horsetail whisk in his hand and looked at him up and down. He smiled and said, "Just Now, there is a lot of spiritual opportunity going to a void hole. It happened to be beside the Green Sky Hall. I know that Hall Master Du Zhen opened the grotto-heaven."
Zhang Yan bowed and said, "I can't hide it from Sect Leader Zhenren. I opened the grotto-heaven today. According to the sect's rules, I have to report to the sect."
As the Qincang School's Zhenren Grotto-Heaven, if he opened the grotto-heaven, he must report to the sect. This was because the grotto-heaven's cultivator would definitely use up a lot of Dharma Power. To prevent the foundation of the grotto-heaven from being damaged, the sect would send pills and precious medicine to help the cultivator recover his vitality as soon as possible.
Sect Leader Qin smiled and said happily, "Hall Master Du Zhen's advancement is very fast. It is really the sect's fortune."
At this moment, lights flashed on both sides. Shen Baishuang, Meng Zhi De, Sun Zhi Yan, Qi Yuntian, Huo Xuan and the rest appeared on the altars one by one. After everyone greeted him, they knew that he had opened the grotto-heaven and had a place to protect himself. So they congratulated him.
Sun Zhenren smiled and said, "In the past, if someone from the same generation opened a grotto-heaven, he would definitely invite his friends in the world to a banquet. I wonder if Hall Master Du Zhen has this intention?"
Zhang Yan thought for a while and said, "Although it is possible, there is no need to do it now."
Meng Zhi De said, "Hall Master Du Zhen has your considerations. But since you have opened the grotto-heaven, you need to have a name. This way, it will be justifiable and can be used to announce it to the world in the future."
Sect Leader Qin looked down and said, "Hall Master Du Zhen, do you have a suitable name?
Zhang Yan thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "The beginning of Da Yan, changes start from the beginning. I wish to have the two words' Da Yan '."
Sect Leader Qin nodded and said, "This is in line with Hall Master Du Zhen's name, it is very suitable."
At this moment, Shen Baishuang said, "But to have this name, the sect still needs to give this name. And Daoist Zhang, with Hall Master Du Zhen's honor, only Sect Leader Shixiong can give this name."
The name of the grotto-heaven was divided into titles, honorific titles, bestowment titles, and honorific titles. The titles were chosen by the sect, the bestowment titles were given by the sect masters, the honorific titles were given by the peers or disciples, and as for honorific titles, they were given by the people in the world. For thousands of years, other than the founder of a sect, no one could get it.
Sect Leader Qin thought for a while and said, "Hall Master Du Zhen's method has reached the innate stage, the chaos is formless, and there is no trace, so you can have the two words' Xuanyuan '."
Zhang Yan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Sect Leader, for bestowing this name."
The method he used to open his meridians was called 'Xuanyuan Internal Meditation Wonderful Record', and it was from this that he really stepped onto the path of Dao. And the two words' Xuanyuan 'implied the innate stage, so it was suitable to be used here.
Sun Zhenren smiled and said, "Since you have been bestowed a title, you should have a honorific title. Daoist Zhang is the third hall master, and there is no one in your sect who has reached the true stage yet, so let us give you a honorific title. In my opinion, how about the two words' Youhuan '?"
Shen Baishuang said, "Youhuan is deep and obscure, and Huan is vast, I think it is fine."
Qi Yuntian and Huo Xuan also nodded.
Zhang Yan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Daoist Masters."
From today onwards, the grotto-heaven he created would have a proper name, and it would be called 'Xuanyuan Youhuan Grotto-Heaven', and his disciples could also call themselves' Xuanyuan Grotto-Heaven 'or' Dayan Grotto-Heaven '!
