Outside of the barrier of the Mountain and Sea Realm, Zhang Yan stood there in his black robe.
He was currently inhaling and exhaling Qi, and as he did, strands of Violet Qi flowed toward him from all directions, almost like silk being spun from a cocoon. Gradually, the Violet Qi flowed into his body.
The Pure Violet spiritual opportunity was spread out in all directions, and would require tens of thousands upon thousands of strands of Qi to form a single strand. Therefore, it was very difficult to collect them. Thankfully, no one was fighting over them.
Even though Sect Master Qin and Sect Master Yue were both gathering Qi outside the Heavens, the three of them were in different locations, separated by billions of miles. It could be said that they did not disturb each other. However, at the level of Mortal Metamorphosis, they could communicate with each other through their Divine Wills. If one of them needed help, the other two would immediately rush over.
Although the Mountain and Sea Realm's void was a peaceful place, it was actually filled with many strange living creatures.
The most common was the Six Whiskers Divine Ray, which looked like both a bird and a fish, and usually fed on starlight. However, sometimes they would break through the barrier of air and enter the Mountain and Sea Realm to play. If they encountered intelligent creatures, they would give birth to offspring.
Furthermore, the Six Whiskers Divine Ray had another hobby. Although it couldn't use the Pure Violet spiritual opportunity, it could still sense the benefits of the spiritual energy. Therefore, it often gathered in places with abundant spiritual opportunity to rest and reproduce.
For this reason, Zhang Yan knew that he could capture them and use them to concoct medicinal pills and magical treasures. However, he didn't kill them. Instead, he would occasionally give the lone Divine Ray some benefits, and then follow them. If he could find where they gathered, it would be easy to find spiritual opportunity, which would save him a lot of energy.
However, the number of living creatures that could benefit him were few and far between. The rest could be considered ferocious creatures, most of which he could exterminate with the snap of a finger. However, there were also a few that he didn't want to get involved with.
For example, there was a creature known as the Eyeless. It usually lay dormant, looking like pieces of broken stars that floated about in the void. Its body was enormous, and it was impossible to say how many tens of thousands of kilometers it stretched out. However, if it ran into a creature like the Divine Ray, it would come to life, surround it, and destroy it. If he were to fight against such a thing, he would only waste his own magic power and wouldn't gain any benefits.
There was another kind of Essence Qi mixed together, which was the condensation of starlight. It was formed from Xiantian refinement. This thing was chaotic and had yet to gain sentience. It only chased after spiritual vigor and vitality by nature. If it sensed a living being, it would not let go. No matter who was targeted by it, they would not be able to get rid of it unless they completely refined it.
And this process could very well take dozens or even hundreds of years. As a Six Paths Six Revolutions Cultivator, he was not afraid of these things, but he did not want to waste his mental time here, so when he saw them, he would avoid them as much as possible to avoid trouble.
However, according to the records of the Mountain and Sea Realm, when the creature landed on the continent, it formed flesh and blood, and then developed its will. After tens of thousands of years passed, it began to evolve. If it was willing to split its Essence Blood to produce descendants, then between the heavens and the earth, it would gradually become a Demon Ancestor. It wouldn't be long before a new race would be born. Fortunately, only one in ten thousand would have such an opportunity.
Dozens of days later, Zhang Yan stopped and released a pagoda. After entering, he sat down cross-legged.
Absorbing the spiritual vigor of the Violet Pure required a vast amount of magical power. Therefore, he had to adjust his breathing from time to time in order to maintain his battle prowess.
A few days later, his magical power was completely restored. Furthermore, he could sense that his cultivation base had made some progress. At this rate, he might be able to break through the ninth barrier within a hundred years.
He couldn't help but nod inwardly. With the boundless Violet qi in this place, it wouldn't be difficult for him to improve his cultivation base. Other than being careful to avoid some vicious creatures, there was virtually no danger. No wonder the two sect leaders had been out in the world beyond for so long.
However, the sects of the Nine Continents had just entered the Mountain and Sea Realm, and needed someone to oversee the situation. As one of the three most powerful Mortal Realm cultivators, compared to the two sect leaders, and also as a junior disciple, it was only natural that he would be the one to shoulder the responsibility.
In the future, after the destruction of the Western Void Deadlands and the situation stabilized, he would be able to focus on his cultivation.
He stood up and when he was about to start collecting the Purple Clear spiritual vigor again, he saw a bright light coming from the distant sky. He turned around and saw that it was a star stone that was riddled with holes. However, the light was like fire and there seemed to be some spiritual vigor mixed on it. He was a little surprised and thought for a while. He stepped out of the pagoda and stretched out his hand to grab it and pulled it close.
At this moment, Spirited Vigor's senses became clearer. After carefully observing the stone for a moment, he focused his gaze and a small piece of the Star Stone broke and flew towards it. He discovered that there were tiny insects with hard shells lying on top of it. They were slowly wriggling.
Although the insects were small, the fact that they could travel through the void showed how strong they were. However, to Meng Hao, they didn't count for much. What intrigued him was that this starstone clearly wasn't from the Mountain and Sea Realm, and yet it contained spiritual vigor. Didn't that mean that in addition to the Void Realm he was in, there were other places in the boundless void that contained spiritual vigor?
Having reached this point in his train of thought, he looked up into the depths of the void, and saw the billions upon trillions of glittering stars. "If these stars contain spiritual vigor," he thought to himself, "then it's possible that there are intelligent life forms there as well. As for what exactly they are, I'll have to personally explore them to find out. However, I'll have to wait until the sects of the Nine Continents have established their foundations in the Mountain and Sea Realm."
Smiling, he rotated his magical power to place the starstone into his Immortal's Paradise, and then once again began to gather spiritual vigor.
Another hundred days passed, and just when he was about to enter the pagoda to restore his magical power, he suddenly sensed something. His eyes flickered, and he looked around to find that the commotion was coming from the Temple of Truth's Pocket World. After a moment's thought, he broke through the void and entered the Mountain and Sea Realm.
At the same time, millions upon millions of kilometers away, a boundless stream of heavenly water floated in the air. The Sect Leader of the Qincang School, Qin Mobai, held a horsetail whisk in his hand as he sat atop the heavenly river. Strands of Violet qi flowed in endlessly from outside.
It was at this point that he seemed to sense something. Smiling, he said, "After all, I'm a disciple of the Qincang School. I'll lend you a hand." He pointed out with his finger, and a stream of spiritual vigor flew down.
After Zhang Yan arrived at the Frigid Jade Sea Prefecture, he took another step and returned to the Xuanze Sea Realm. Looking around, he saw that the Realm was filled with waves, and the sound of the tides shook the heavens. A deep, gentle, and boundless aura was gradually condensing. It was coming from the direction where his eldest disciple, Liu Yanyi, was practicing cultivation. Clearly, his disciple's cultivation was reaching completion, and she was about to enter the Paradise Realm.
He nodded slightly. "It's about time."
Back in the Nine Continents, his eldest disciple's aura was already rising. Now, after all these years, the day had finally come for him to break through to the next Realm.
However, in order to reach this step, not only did he have to practice cultivation to perfection, he also had to absorb a vast amount of spiritual vigor.
The spiritual vigor in the Xuanze Sea Realm was abundant, and he had made some special arrangements after arriving in the Mountain and Sea Realm. Now, it was more than enough.
However, at this moment, another aura appeared in another part of the Realm. At first, it wasn't obvious, but he could sense that the spiritual vigor contained within it was vast and stable. It was slowly but surely expanding outwards.
"Oh? At this time, too. "
Zhang Yan was slightly surprised. That was where his second disciple, Tian Kun, was. This disciple used to be the Paradise Realm Greater Demon, Gui Congyao. He had received guidance from Wuming Daoren, and had become Zhang Yan's disciple.
He had cultivated in seclusion for two lifetimes, and had gotten rid of the impurities of the past. It could be said that he had accumulated a lot of experience, and because of his special cultivation method, he had hidden his aura well. However, anyone with a bit of knowledge would know that once he released it, it would definitely be earth-shattering.
He thought about it for a moment. If it was only his eldest disciple, Liu Yanyi, then the spiritual vigor in the Small Realm would be enough. But now there were two, and it was a bit difficult to make ends meet.
Fortunately, he always did things in advance, especially in order to deal with the Heavenly Ghost Tribe. There were several Elders in the Hall of Purity Truth who had cultivated in seclusion, and they had predicted that such a situation would happen.
Since the spiritual vigor was insufficient, then he could just get it from the outside!
He waved his sleeves and took out the jade seal of the Hall of Purity Truth Master. It was different from the secondary seal that was destroyed in the jade cliff. This seal was the main seal of the Hall of Purity Truth Master. Once it entered the sky, it expanded the door of the Small Realm that was already opened, and the spiritual vigor from the outside continued to enter.
In the nine continents, the spiritual vigor of heaven and earth had been used for hundreds of millions of years, and it was getting thinner. The few places that were rich only existed in the places where the spiritual veins of the mountains and rivers converged. However, if one could enlighten the spiritual point, the spiritual vigor of heaven and earth could be purified. Under its cover, it could even evolve into a Paradise. The closer one was to the spiritual point, the clearer the spiritual vigor was. Hence, when a cultivator entered the Paradise, it was best to use the Qi of this place.
However, this Qi was limited. In the past, only those who had made great contributions to the sect, or those who had a respectable position could enjoy it. In the end, it was because of the lack of spiritual vigor.
In the Mountain and Sea Realm, however, there were no such misgivings. There was no shortage of spiritual vigor in this world, but the Qi was too turbulent. It was not as peaceful as the Nine Continents. Although it was not a big deal to directly consume it, it was impossible to use it for one's own purposes in a short period of time. That was especially true when a cultivator was about to enter the Paradise.
In view of this flaw, Zhang Yan set up a grand spell formation in the Small Realm. After the circulation of spiritual vigor, it could adjust the spiritual vigor, and calm it down. However, the speed of the circulation of spiritual vigor could not be compared to the speed of the Spirit Point, so he had to use his magical power to stimulate it.
He flicked his finger, and a mighty stream of spiritual vigor poured into the spell formation.
It was at this point that a stream of spiritual vigor descended from the sky. It spun like a whirlpool, and then slowly formed something that resembled a Spirit Point. Compared to the original Spirit Point in the Qincang School, it was much smaller. It only covered the entrance to the Small Realm, and didn't touch anything else.
Zhang Yan knew that the Sect Leader had come to the aid of the Sect Leader, who had used his vast magical power to temporarily create the Spirit Point. He could tell that it would only last for ten days or half a month, after which it would fade away. However, the spiritual vigor of the Mountain and Sea Realm was limitless, and the amount of spiritual vigor accumulated during this period of time was more than enough for two disciples to use. Therefore, he clasped his hands and said, "Disciple thanks the Sect Leader on behalf of the disciples."
