Beyond Heaven, above the sea of vitality. Zhang Yan sat amidst the endless bright light of the Yang Fire. Enveloped by the boundless Qi activity, all the worlds in the void revolved around him.
As he tried to rein in his Qi dynamic, there was a change of movement and stillness, Yin and Yang. The mighty mana swept across the worlds like a tide. Among them, many worlds that originally had no spiritual vigor were sent to clear their spirits, but at the same time, many worlds had their spiritual vigor swept away.
However, due to his conscious control, there might be some changes to the Heavens and Realms because of this, but without tens or even millions of years of time, the changes would not truly appear.
He could have tried to do this in the broken jade, but there was a problem. The broken jade would not evolve into any living creatures.
As a True Yang cultivator could make all things beneficial to himself, then conversely, his actions were not beneficial to all things. If he only wanted to increase his cultivation and mana without caring about anything else, he would kill countless living creatures during this period. This would go against his original intention. It must be known that all living creatures were also part of the operation of heaven and earth. If he could not avoid this during the operation, then his cultivation would not be complete.
Now, he had not decided on a name for his next abode. It was not that he did not want to take it, but he felt that his cultivation was not complete, the opportunity had not arrived, and the mysteries of heaven had not been revealed. When the time came, there would be a name on it, and he did not have to deliberately ask for it.
Just as he was cultivating here, a strand of his consciousness was cast into the Void Sea where the Qincang School was located.
After this place was built, the ordinary people of the sect came to cultivate here one after another. This time, he did not come to look for them, but to return a promise from the past.
He stood on the sea and looked over. He saw a big Kun flipping the waves and swimming happily. He could not help but smile and said, "Zhenren Ying, long time no see."
Ying Gui sensed his Qi dynamic and immediately came over. With a child-like voice, he said, "What brings Hall Master Du Zhen here today?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Do you still remember, Sage Ying? Back then, in order to gather enough precious materials to refine a treasure, I borrowed some of your blood essence from you. You can say that I owe you a favor. Now, it's time for me to return the favor."
He stretched out his hand and tapped lightly on Ying Gui's head. Ying Gui took a step back and shook her body. After a while, she said cheerfully, "I found you, I found you."
All the great Kun species originated from the same ancestral Kun. No matter where a new species was born, all the members of the same species would immediately know about it. Logically speaking, the members of the same species should be able to sense it. However, due to the lack of spiritual vigor in the Nine Continents, Ying Gui had been hiding in the screen wall for tens of thousands of years and had lost the ability to find the members of the same species.
The Spirit of the Void had lost a part of its memory. It instinctively wanted to find it, but it didn't know what it was. That was why it asked Zhang Yan for help. Today, it had picked up these things again. It could vaguely sense the existence of many of its kind, so it was naturally overjoyed.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Since Zhenren Ying has found the past, I believe you will be able to learn more from the members of the same species in the future. I won't say anything more." He looked around again and said, "This Void Sea is beneficial to Mortal Metamorphosis Cultivators, but to Zhenren Ying, it's like a pond. You can't stretch your body. Since I'm here today, I'll change it for Zhenren Ying."
With a wave of his sleeve, a stream of clear air descended and disappeared in an instant. On the surface, the sea did not seem to have changed at all, but in reality, it was instantly changed into a place like the sky. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was boundless, and it was enough for a large Kun to live in.
Seeing this, Ying Gui was even happier. He dove in and swam happily.
Zhang Yan faintly smiled, before he turned around and left. This time, he directly returned to the Xuanyuan Small World.
As his cultivation improved greatly, this simple small world could no longer accommodate him. In the future, he would open up another big world. However, he came here today for a talisman that had yet to be refined.
He looked up and saw a dragon's heart hanging in the air. Countless small things that looked like meridians and blood vessels spread in all directions. It was crystal clear, like the Milky Way.
This thing wasn't static, but it was beating slowly. Because it was measured in years, it didn't seem to move in the eyes of ordinary people. Every time it stretched, most of the spiritual vigor in the small world would be slowly guided into it. After it shrank, it would be released again. Because of this, the spiritual vigor here had undergone some subtle changes. Even the essence of the spiritual vigor was unknowingly consumed. Fortunately, the border pass was connected to the mountain and sea, so there was still a continuous flow of spiritual vigor from the outside.
At this moment, a spiritual light flashed and Mountain River Child appeared in front of him. He bowed and said, "Zhang Ju greets Master."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "You've taken good care of this talisman."
Mountain River Child replied, "I dare not take credit for it. In the past, Daoist Master Liu would come here to refine it whenever he had time. However, in recent years, he has been in secluded meditation, which is why he has left it to me. However, it's just ordinary care, nothing difficult."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. Years ago, he had obtained the Eternal Pure Heart and gathered many other rare and precious materials to fuse with it. He had felt that there were too many unknown almighty beings in the Outer World, and that the Mountain and Sea Realm could face the threat of the Greater Demon from the Smoke World at any time. Therefore, he had wanted to refine a cornerstone treasure for the Xuanyuan Division to protect them.
However, he had never imagined that after leaving Yu Huan, he would become a great True Yang cultivator. Now that the treasure had been refined, it wouldn't be of much use to him.
However, even if he couldn't use it, that didn't mean his disciples couldn't. Therefore, he could continue with the matter.
He could sense that the treasure had almost completely fused with the world. The most important step had been completed, and all that was left was to slowly refine it.
In fact, the dragon heart still had a lot of potential to be unearthed. It was just that in the past, it had absorbed ordinary spiritual opportunity, so it hadn't been able to fully show its potential. The only way to do that was to serve a mortal and reach the True Yang, and feed it with Purple Pure Medicine. However, that was impossible, and it would have been impossible before.
But now, it wasn't a difficult thing to do.
With a thought, he flicked his finger, and a strand of vital energy poured into the dragon heart.
All of a sudden, there seemed to be a bright light flashing in the depths of the dragon's heart. Then, it became brighter and brighter, and soon, it could no longer be stopped. It was as if it was overflowing with light. In an instant, the entire small world was brightly illuminated, and the spiritual vigor of the entire world was also lively and lively.
At that moment, a whooshing sound could be heard, like the echoes of the tides in the distance. It was also the sound of a huge creature taking a deep breath.
At that moment, the entire small world was absorbing spiritual opportunity, pushing out all the impurities in the past, so as to be reborn. Whether it was the dragon heart or the small world, in fact, they hadn't accumulated any spirituality. This action was spontaneous, and it was the most natural.
When Zhang Yan saw this, a thought flashed through his mind.
His own Qi dynamic covered the various worlds, turning everything in the world, and making it beneficial to himself.
However, if he wanted to advance, he had to find a way to subdue it, so that he could retract it freely. This was also beneficial to him, but why couldn't he do it? This was actually because there was some conflict between the two.
Once the Qi dynamic was retracted, the expansion of the tribe would slow down, and even stagnate. To a cultivator, not being able to advance meant going backwards, so this was disadvantageous to him. However, if he didn't do this, it seemed that there was no hope to advance, and no matter how he looked at it, it was a dilemma.
What he needed to do here was to make a choice. Previously, he had been thinking about this matter. Looking at this scene, he had some ideas. As the saying goes, there can be no construction without destruction. Only with sacrifice can there be gain. Perhaps he needed to make a decision.
However, such a big matter, he wouldn't act rashly, and it was impossible for him to do it immediately. He would first deduce it repeatedly, and then go to the same path for reference. After going through all kinds of verification, he would only do it when he had a clear idea.
After some thought, he looked at the field again. After the initial throb, the movement caused by the dragon heart was slightly smaller than before, and the surrounding spiritual opportunity was also much more peaceful. This treasure was nourished by the Qi of vitality, and if it was refined in the future, then its power would undoubtedly increase to another level. However, this also caused the birth of this treasure to be extended by a lot. A treasure that could be formed in a few thousand years might have to be counted in tens of thousands of years.
Speaking of which, with the power of the True Yang, an object could be illuminated for tens of thousands of years in an instant. However, doing so would cause this object to be incompatible with the present world. This was equivalent to going against the heaven and earth, and it needed to constantly send Qi of vitality to maintain it until it became one with all things. Only then could it stop. If the method was withdrawn during this period, then it would instantly return to its original state.
Of course, this also required that the object that was illuminated by the supernatural power could withstand it. For an ordinary living creature, after experiencing tens of thousands of years in an instant, it would die in the blink of an eye, and naturally, it would not return.
However, it had to be mentioned that even if it was an ordinary person, because of the existence of the opportunity, logically speaking, he could also become a mighty person in the future. If the mighty person used this method to eliminate him, it would mean that he had rejected all the opportunities in the future, and the future that he had lost would need to be filled by the person who performed the supernatural power.
This was different from simply killing a person, or cutting off the shadow of the person's future. One was to kill off the future, and cut off all karma, while the other was to take the initiative to bear the karma, and cause the person to self-destruct. The price of the latter was great, but the return was little, and the loss outweighed the gain. This was even more so when it involved such a treasure, so Zhang Yan would definitely not do such a thing.
He looked for a while longer, then retracted his gaze, and said to Mountain River Child, "Zhang Ju, you don't need to look after this place anymore. This world and the Dragon's Heart are one, so it is no longer suitable for you to stay here. I have other arrangements for you later, so come down and follow me."
He intended to refine the Mountain River Painting again. Originally, the mountains and rivers in the painting were just illusions, but if he used his True Yang energy to observe it, everything would become reality, and that would be the real mountains and rivers in the painting. The Mountain River Painting could even contain an entire world. This treasure was useless to him, but he could also give it to his sect. In the future, the two treasures could complement each other, and they could play a great role.
When Mountain River Child heard this, he was overjoyed. He bowed and said, "This lowly one understands." After that, he turned into a spiritual light and flew up.
Zhang Yan nodded, waved his sleeve, and kept him in, then took a step out of the Xuanyuan Small World.
