Boom!

With a thunderous roar that resonated across the Great Thousand Universe, the remaining half of Buzhou Mountain was uprooted and transformed into a colossal seal that floated above the celebratory clouds around Xuanqing’s head.

Seeing this, Daoist Duobao couldn’t help but transmit a message to Xuanqing: "Junior brother, using a Top Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure in exchange for a broken half of Buzhou Mountain seems somewhat unworthy! Although Buzhou Mountain is mysterious, it is ultimately an Acquired object."

Xuanqing, unconcerned, quietly replied: "Senior brother! You are too fixated on the difference between Innate and Acquired! The Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Linglong Treasure Tower that Great Uncle Master holds is an Acquired Merit Treasure, yet, how many Innate items can breach the defenses of the treasure tower? Acquired does not necessarily lose to Innate!"

"For us cultivators, what suits us best is the finest treasure!"

"I believe, as Buzhou Mountain is transformed from the spine of Pangu God, it definitely has mysteries that we have yet to discover, and will surely play an extraordinary role in the future!"

In fact, Xuanqing couldn’t explain why he valued the broken Buzhou Mountain so much, he attributed this intuition to a cultivator’s whimsical fancy.

He had just received a vast amount of Heavenly Dao Merit, and at this moment, his Dao heart was exceptionally clear, even capable of perceiving the basic operational principles of the Primordial Heavenly Dao.

Although the heavens have been mended, and the world now has new Heavenly Pillars for support, the chronology of the Ancient Starry Sky and the Primordial World remains utterly chaotic.

The Heavenly Dao is in the process of adjusting.

As for Zhen Yuanzi, he wore a smile as he put away the "Sun and Moon Essence Wheel," casually transforming it into a sun and moon, solemnly hanging it in the sky of the Earth Immortal Realm.

This sun and moon, genuine and substantial, radiated boundless light and heat, immediately replacing the original sun and moon, bringing endless light to Zhen Yuanzi’s Earth Immortal Realm.

The world began to evolve!

Afterward, Zhen Yuanzi tossed some broken veins of the land into the Earth Immortal Realm, under the influence of the "Earth Book", the void of the Earth Immortal Realm started expanding continuously.

"I’m merely making the most out of resources!" Seeing Xuanqing and others looking towards him, Zhen Yuanzi immediately said with a smile: "Normally collecting the veins of Primordial World would subtly incur Karma! But these shattered veins have already lost their original capability to transform Innate Spiritual Energy and thus, will not generate Karma!"

Upon hearing this, Xuanqing immediately praised: "The path of a Great Immortal is profoundly mysterious, truly an eye-opener for us all! May the Great Immortal achieve the Primordial Dao Fruit soon!"

"Thanks to your auspicious words, little friend!"

Zhen Yuanzi was very pleased, smiled, and then waved goodbye to Xuanqing and others.

Xuanqing watched him leave.

In fact, he too had considered following the path of the World Dao, but this path was exceedingly difficult, even more challenging than breaking through the Heavenly Dao Chains and attaining the rank of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal in the Primordial World.

The reason is simple!

The path of the World, even if evolved by a Saint personally, the upper limit is just the Great Thousand Worlds.

And the only world Xuanqing knew of beyond the Great Thousand Worlds was the Primordial opened by Pangu God, which has existed for endless aeons.

This is the sole Hongmeng Great Realm!

Xuanqing didn’t believe that Zhen Yuanzi, as a being of the Primordial World, could utilize the resources of the Primordial World to create a Hongmeng Great Realm comparable to the Primordial.

Unless he directly refines the entire Primordial World into the Earth Immortal Realm, devours the Primordial Heavenly Dao, or finds the legendary Chaos Treasure "Chaos Pearl."

Compared to elevating a world to the rank of Hongmeng Great Realm, Xuanqing still believed that basing on the Refining Dao, refining the myriad daos, was more likely to achieve the stature of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.

There is no superiority or inferiority in Dao, but there is difficulty!

The World Dao, likewise embracing myriad aspects, is a path with immense potential, but the possibility of attaining Dao through this means in the Primordial World is almost none!

The Primordial World could not provide enough support, and the Heavenly Dao would not willingly be devoured by Zhen Yuanzi.

This is an unsolvable situation!

On the contrary, comprehending myriad daos, refining them, and evolving various daos through the Refining Dao seems extremely difficult, but ultimately, there is still a glimmer of possibility.

After all...

The Great Dao of the Primordial World evolved from the Power Great Dao of Pangu and, as the outline of the Three Thousand Great Dao, the Primordial World almost encompasses all daos.

Xuanqing did not rush back to Golden Turtle Island; he led Duobao and others in searching for opportunities in the Witch Demon battlefield and clearing the evil Qi and poison miasma lingering on there.

Although the Ancestor Witch of Poison had fallen, the poison miasma he evolved still existed between heaven and earth.

Others avoided it like plague!

But for Xuanqing, it was like finding a treasure. He used the "Heaven Gu Yuan E Banner" to collect them all, clearing these poison miasmas and gaining considerable Heavenly Dao Merit.

Daoist Duobao, on the other hand, meticulously searched for the bones of the Demon Gods and scattered pieces of Spiritual Treasures, which for him were excellent materials for artifact refining.

As for the True Spirit of the Beiming Mysterious Turtle, with the incarnation of the Tongtian Sect Master, Emperor Shangqing, watching over it and protecting its Reincarnation, he need not worry!

Many Loose Cultivators also joined this frenzy, "When a whale falls, myriad creatures thrive." The decline of the Witch and Demon Clan also brought endless opportunities to the Loose Cultivators of the Primordial World.

"Witch and Demon fall, Loose Cultivators feast!"

Many Loose Cultivators lacked vision, only gathering Essence Blood or fragments of exploded Spiritual Treasures, but they overlooked the Dao traces in the void.

Especially the Dao traces left by Ancestor Witches like Ju Mang, Qiang Liang, Huanzi, and Tian Wu after their self-destructs in the void, these were priceless treasures to Xuanqing.

Falling was actually another form of rebirth; their Great Dao returned to heaven and earth, but had not yet been wholly digested by it, countless Dao traces dispersed in the void.

The Dao traces of Ju Mang, containing the true meaning of withering and flourishing, the mystery of life and death, had unimaginable benefits for Xuanqing’s study of the Spirit Farming Dao, cultivating Spirit Plants in the "Mountain River Tripod."

He was the Ancestor Witch of Wood, naturally close to various Spirit Plants, his Great Dao was likewise.

The Dao traces left after the self-explosions of the Ancestor Witches of Wind Tian Wu, Fire Zhu Rong, Thunder Qiang Liang, and Electricity Huanzi, were like those of the Ancestor Witch of Poison Shebi Corpse, used by Xuanqing to strengthen his various authorities, and the Daluo Heavens developed on his Dao tree expanded rapidly.

Especially the Thunder Dao Daluo Heaven, drawing from the Dao traces left by Qiang Liang and Huanzi, the Thunder Universe continually expanding towards the Multiverse, seemed to have a hint of turning the intangible into tangible, refining the false into truth.

Secondly, the Fire Dao Daluo Heaven led by an Innate Fire God, who ruled over myriad fires, wore a Golden Crown, and stood on double dragons, bore some resemblance to the Fire Ancestor Witch Zhu Rong.

In the Sword Dao Daluo Heaven, the Dao trace of the Ancestor Witch of Gold Ricui integrated, immediately causing clangs of swords, the extreme sharpness even affected other Daluo Heavens.

This made Xuanqing frown, and following his intuition and gaze, he saw a fearsome strong sword containing endless Evil Qi, fighting in the void against a fierce saber.

"Sorcerer Slayer Sword?"

"And the Demon-Slaying Saber?"

Xuanqing immediately recognized these two fierce weapons; the former was forged by Emperor Jun using billions of Human Race souls, whereas the latter was forged by Houtu using her own Saint Blood.

The evil and ominous aura on them surpassed even the Four Swords of Slaying Immortal!

Of course, that was in a one-on-one situation.

If the Four Swords of Slaying Immortal gathered together, combined with the "Slaying Immortal Array", it could evolve into the most dangerous array under the Heavenly Dao, naturally not comparable to these two fierce weapons.

Xuanqing frowned.

The appearance of the "Demon-Slaying Saber" was unexpected, but as for the "Sorcerer Slayer Sword," he remembered it should have fallen into the hands of Taiching Laozi to cleanse away its Evil Qi and refine it into the "Xuanyuan Sword."

He could not help but wonder: "Could it be, another butterfly effect caused by me?"

Because he persuaded Mysterious Turtle to offer four legs and found Five-Colored Stones for Nuwa, the duration of this great calamity should have been significantly shortened compared to the original!

Yuanshi Tianzun didn’t have time to collect half of the Buzhou Mountain, and Taiching Laozi didn’t get to reclaim the "Sorcerer Slayer Sword," being summoned by Daoist Ancestor Hong Jun to Purple Cloud Palace.

"Reasonable!"

"Very reasonable!"

Xuanqing found a reasonable explanation for himself.

Then he directly used his Divine Skills to suppress the two fierce weapons in the "Innate Thunder Pool," intending to use the supremely yang and rigid thunder to cleanse the Evil Qi on them.

And this, was destined to be a lengthy process, not something that could be done in a short time.
