Zhang Yan stood on the altar of the Qinghuan Palace, his consciousness wandering through the Daos.
Because when the next Bhadanta came, the true body of the Spirit of Creation might come earlier. Because of this, he had to think of a countermeasure in advance. For this, he had been repeatedly deducing a way to break out of this situation.
Uniting the Bhadanta was one of the reasons, and the other was to perfect the Dao. It would be best if he could find the few Creation Pauline that he still lacked here.
After every Bhadanta returned, they would summon the Pauline that had fallen into the Daos. These Pauline weren't summoned by the master, so it was usually impossible for outsiders to find them.
But there were exceptions here as well. For example, the Treasured Lotus of Fortune in his possession was obtained from the Daoist that transmitted his will to him, and he'd borrowed the vital energy and will of this Daoist.
This meant that if he could borrow the Qi or Dao of a certain Bhadanta that hadn't appeared, he might be able to find the Creation Pauline that that person left behind.
If one were to say who he had the deepest connection with in Dao, it would undoubtedly be the Master of the Demonic Treasury. From the Divine Contract to Chi Lu, it could be said that he had a deep connection with him.
He believed that this person was also a Bhadanta, but he didn't know what method he used to achieve Dao. But as long as the Dao of Strength was related to this person, then it was enough.
If the Dao of Strength advanced, there would also be a Dao that could be grasped, and he was currently in the midst of seizing it.
Perhaps this was the original plan of the Master of the Demonic Treasury. It was possible that this person had also walked this path, and now it would depend on who reached the end first.
Previously, his understanding of this Dao was also limited, but as the Qi of Pauline increased, his comprehension also gradually deepened. If he took a step further, then he might be able to reverse calculate this person.
He didn't seek to see this person's original, as long as he could find the Creation Pauline that this person grasped. Even if he couldn't find it, it didn't stop him from trying.
Aside from the Dao of Strength, the Dao behind the Creation Spirit was equally important. However, this place completely relied on the teachings of the Evolution Sect, so it was impossible for him to interfere. However, he'd already calculated that the Evolution Sect would have an extremely great opportunity to expand. So long as he was able to grab hold of it, then his understanding of this Dao Technique would rise to another level.
After he made up his mind, his mind moved, and he sent down another decree.
In the blink of an eye, another thirty years passed.
Originally, the myriad worlds had returned to peace after the Yuan Jade Battle, but now, a major event had occurred that made all the cultivators uneasy.
After the heavens experienced the Spirit Vigor, the Spirit Vigor in the present world had gradually returned to its original state. However, the downward trend did not stop. Instead, it continued to weaken.
The main reason for this was due to the repeated clashes between the Great Virtues' Weili and the Creation Spirit's Weili. Any external force was suppressed. In addition, after the Spirit Vigor flourished, the number of cultivators in the All-Heavens increased tremendously. Most people used Spirit Vigor without restraint. Just Now, there were such consequences.
Within the Busu Heaven, there were only a few Realms that weren't affected, and the Mountain and Sea Realm was one of them. With Zhang Yan's clone overseeing it, there naturally wouldn't be any problems.
The second place was the Green Splendor Heaven. The Green Jade Palace was located there, and with Fu Qingming, a True Yang cultivator, it naturally wouldn't run out of Spirit Vigor. In fact, it hadn't even shown signs of decline.
The last place was the Kun Shi Continent, which was located in the myriad worlds of the Busu Heaven. It had unlimited Spirit Vigor, so it didn't have to worry about this.
On the Yu Huan All-Heavens' side, when the All-Heavens' Heaven Lords sensed this change, they all went to the Green Jade Palace, begging the Exalted One to stop this.
Fu Qingming, however, didn't respond to their pleas. If he was still a Dao Divinity, he would most likely still do his best to maintain the Yu Huan All-Heavens, to ensure that the Karma Points Restriction wouldn't be broken. But now that he had Zhang Yan's help, he had long since recovered his Dharma body, so he naturally didn't care about this.
From his point of view, the rise and decline of Spirit Vigor wasn't just a change of the Heavens and Earth. It could also be a game between the almighty beings of the Upper Realm. Now that the one in the Green Jade Palace hadn't spoken, he naturally wouldn't interfere in this matter.
Bai Wei, Deng Zhang, and the Six Demon Masters had also taken note of this. They all believed that if Spirit Vigor continued to decline, then the war between the Daos would inevitably begin. Because of this, although they didn't dare to personally intervene, they secretly pushed for it.
Because the Six Demon Masters had received a response after paying their respects to Devil Ancestor Chi Zhou, they had regained some of their confidence, so they were the most active among them.
Nowadays, the Yu Huan All-Heavens and the Mountain and Sea Realm were usually the most prosperous in the Busha Heaven. But that didn't mean that there weren't any powerful sects in the other Realms. It was just that in the past, these sects were scattered in different Realms, so they were relatively weak.
But all of this had changed after a few major events. First, the Mountain and Sea Realm's Magical Battle Festival attracted the cultivators of these sects to discuss Dao with the other sects, which greatly broadened their horizons.
Second, the Mirror Lake cultivators invaded in large numbers. Although they were repelled by the cultivators of the Busha Heaven, the remaining poison of this generation hadn't been truly purged, and many superior techniques were thus spread. It must be said that these were all Daoist teachings passed down by the Prime High, which greatly increased the power of many cultivators in the remote Realms.
But that was all. These forces were too scattered, and couldn't gather in one place. But with the appearance of the Yanjiao Sect, the Realm Gates were erected, and the Myriad Heavens and Realms were connected. Things were very different, and many forces thus joined forces.
This time, with the decline of Spiritual Qi, after these forces sensed the danger, and under the influence of some people, they all tried to find a way out.
Among them, many forces tried to rope in and threaten the Yanjiao Sect. This generation mainly wanted to control the Realm Gates, so it wouldn't be difficult to find a suitable place to hide Spiritual Qi.
But Gao Chengtu didn't care. The decline of Spiritual Qi in the Myriad Heavens was a bad thing for others, but it was a good thing for the Yanjiao Sect. This meant that the Yanjiao Sect's techniques could be spread to more Realms. Even if Spiritual Qi flourished in the future, the impact would not be erased.
Moreover, the Yanjiao Sect's opponents had never been the sects of the Heavens, but the Luo Sect, the Virtue Sect, and the Dao techniques spread by the Spirit of Creation. These people were the real trouble. This was because the Yanjiao Sect had a great advantage in terms of techniques. Other than places where Spiritual Qi was extinct, they could quickly spread Dao techniques and compete with the Yanjiao Sect for believers. Before these sects were dealt with, the Yanjiao Sect would not take the initiative to join the chess game of the sects of the Heavens.
In the Sky Shore Realm, on a floating land, clear light floated, clouds were like pillars, Dao sounds were heard, and celestial Qi was faintly discernible. In order to deal with the decline of Spiritual Qi, the upper echelons of more than a hundred sects gathered here.
In fact, most of the people here were the remnants of the Mirror Lake's invasion of Busu Heaven, and the rest were cultivators who had obtained the Dao techniques of the Mirror Lake cultivators, so their mana increased rapidly.
Among them, the Honglie Sect was the most powerful. The Honglie Sect's leader, Ci Shu, was holding a horsetail whisk as he stood on the jade platform. He spoke to the leaders of the sects on both sides, "Fellow Daoists, due to the decline of Spiritual Qi in the Myriad Heavens, if this continues, it will be difficult for our cultivation to continue, and the lineage of our sects may also be cut off. Therefore, I have no choice but to invite all of you here to work together to find a way forward."
Someone below said, "Fellow Ci Shu, since you invited us here, you must have made some preparations. Why don't you tell us?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ci Shu slowly said, "If that's the case, I'll say it." He paused for a moment, then said, "Actually, this matter can be difficult, but it can also be easy. Our realm does not lack Spiritual Qi, so we should go to a place with abundant Spiritual Qi. Currently, in the Myriad Heavens and Realms, there are two places that we can go. One is the Qinghua Heaven, and the other is the Mountain and Sea Realm."
Someone was puzzled, "Fellow Daoist, why not go to the Kun Shi Continent? With our power, it shouldn't be difficult to occupy a place here, right? Why do we have to risk our lives against these two sects? "
Ci Shu said, "The Kun Shi Continent is indeed a suitable place. Originally, it was enough to accommodate all of us, but when I visited the Divine Lord there, he used the excuse that he was afraid that we would break the rules as an excuse and did not allow us to enter together. He requested that we enter one by one within three thousand years."
Everyone below frowned. This request was not a big deal. Under normal circumstances, it would be very reasonable. They could afford to wait for three thousand years. However, seeing that the Spiritual Qi was declining rapidly, who knew how bad the situation would become? In the end, it might not even be enough for them to use.
One must know that even great cultivators who had severed their past and future did not have an unlimited lifespan. They could only survive by relying on Purple Clear Spiritual Qi. If they waited for thousands of years, they might run out of lifespan.
Moreover, who would enter first was also a problem. In the face of a matter of life and death and the inheritance of the sect, no one could give in.
Ci Shu said, "Therefore, we have to choose a place to attack. Of course, fighting is not my wish. If we can use the situation to negotiate with them and let us enter, then we can avoid a disaster for both sides."
In fact, he knew that this was most likely impossible. Why would they let go of the place that they had painstakingly opened up for them?
Therefore, there would definitely be a fierce battle in the end.
But this was his original goal.
He was a Mirror Lake cultivator. The reason he had been able to survive the invasion of the Mirror Lake was because he had been secretly taken in by the Heavenly Demons. There was a price to be paid here. The Heavenly Demons did not want him to bring his disciples to the Kunshi Continent. Instead, they wanted them to attack the Mountain and Sea Realm or the Myriad Heavens. Only then could there be a great war between the Daos.
Someone said, "What if we attack the Kunshi Continent instead?"
Ci Shu shook his head. "That is impossible. To enter the Kunshi Continent, we need to go through the World Rings set up by the four great Yuan Zun, which are controlled by the cultivators of the Mountain and Sea Realm and the Qinghua Heavens.
Everyone was speechless. Everything was back to square one.
Someone else said, "But Fellow Daoist Ci Shu, I have heard that the two sects are backed by the Creator Yuan Zun. If we offend Yuan Zun, wouldn't we be seeking our own deaths?"
When the sect leaders heard this, their faces flickered, and they began to feel the urge to retreat.
Ci Shu smiled and comforted them. "Everyone, there is no need to worry about this. What kind of person is the Creator Yuan Zun? Why would he interfere in the affairs of the mortal world? Besides, since I have brought this up, why would I want to harm you? " He waved his sleeve, and several memorial tablets appeared behind him. He pointed at them and said, "As long as you pay your respects to these tablets, then you will be protected by Yuan Zun in the future. That way, there will be no problems."
