The Fifth Update of the Second Heavenly Cataclysm!

The Chen Kingdom bordered the States of the Zheng Kingdom, Jin Kingdom, and Wei Country to the north, and resisted these three states.

To the south, it confronts the three major hegemonic vassal states of the former Jing Kingdom: the eastern, southern, and Western Frontier. Each of these three vassal states is backed by the Great Sage Residence on Yellow-Robed Mountain, the Star-Judging Sect on Horseshoe Ridge Mountain, and the Purple Cloud Palace on Heavenly Fortress Mountain. Although not as powerful as the Chen Kingdom, they should not be underestimated.

With so many rivals, Chen Kingdom's expansion was quickly halted.

Fortunately, the territory of the seven states was large enough. A decree was issued from the God-Seeking Abbey, ordering the Chen Kingdom to shift its focus from expansion to internal stability and external defense, prioritizing economic development.

After six or seven years of recuperation and restoration, there have been no major battles.

"Um."

Lu Qingfeng nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Ren Changsheng hesitated for a moment before finally asking, "Senior Brother—"

Will the Central Plains really expand again as it did 65 years ago?

Half Moon, Lu Qingfeng summoned Ren Changsheng and informed him of the second expansion of heaven and earth, which surprised and puzzled Ren Changsheng. However, given the prestige that Lu Qingfeng had established within the God-Seeking Abbey over the years, Ren Changsheng did not question him and went directly to the Chen Kingdom to issue a decree.

Only then did he return to report.

After accumulating curiosity for Half Moon, I finally asked the question.

"Good."

Lu Qingfeng nodded softly.

Recently, he observed the stars at night and found that they were becoming increasingly brilliant. After several calculations, he discovered that the second major change in the Evergreen Realm was about to occur.

It can take anywhere from three months to three years.

A great upheaval occurred, the world expanded, and the common people and the regime suffered the consequences.

The seven kingdoms that had stood firm in the Central Plains for hundreds of years lost their power due to being caught off guard. Apart from Zheng, Huan, and Jin, the other four kingdoms all vanished and ceased to exist.

If the newly established Chen Kingdom fails to prepare in advance and respond appropriately, its vast territory may become a source of disaster.

Chaos in the mundane world is not a good thing for the God-Seeking Abbey.

"The Second Heavenly Cataclysm."

"We don't know what the situation will be like after the change in the weather."

Seeing their senior brother's determination, Ren Changsheng and Zhang Wenye exchanged a glance and sighed in admiration.

During the first celestial upheaval in the Evergreen Realm, the two of them personally witnessed the mysterious phenomena such as the earth expanding, rivers widening, and mountains rising higher.

One after another, Spirit Mountains and sacred rivers and lands have emerged over the past few decades.

With the opening of the path to cultivation, cultivators emerged. Various immortal sects and Rogue Cultivators from all over the land.

The changes are so numerous that it's hard to keep up.

Faced with the Second Heavenly Cataclysm, he suddenly realized that he was already Foundation Establishment cultivator, an 'immortal' in the eyes of ordinary mortals.

The once dilapidated God-Seeking Abbey, facing imminent destruction, has risen to become the number one immortal sect in the Central Plains.

Its fame resounded throughout the former lands of the seven kingdoms.

All of this truly feels like a dream.

"With the impending catastrophe, have the various properties of the God-Seeking Abbey been relocated?"

Lu Qingfeng spoke, startling the two who were lost in thought.

Zhang Wenye replied, "They have all been settled. There are Foundation Establishment cultivators stationed at the two Lingchuan sites, the three shell farms, and the four Spirit Mountain of varying sizes, including Calf-Holding Mountain."

Years have passed.

The number of places with spiritual charm in the world is gradually increasing.

The God-Seeking Abbey has many Foundation Establishment cultivators. Within the Chen Kingdom, wherever a spiritual land appears, the God-Seeking Abbey sends Foundation Establishment cultivators to occupy it.

Over the decades, the various industries have accumulated enough to support the cultivation of 784 disciples and 27 Foundation Establishment cultivators of the God-Seeking Abbey.

After the Second Heavenly Cataclysm, the Evergreen Realm will expand again, and the scale of these spiritual lands will increase, enabling them to support even more cultivators.

This is the foundation of the God-Seeking Abbey.

We must secure it.

The mundane Chen Kingdom, the spiritual land of Chen.

If these two things remain stable, everything will be fine.

Ren and Zhang left. Lu Qingfeng sat cross-legged in the Founders' Hall, cultivating in seclusion and awaiting the arrival of the Second Heavenly Cataclysm.

In the blink of an eye.

September.

This day.

Lu Qingfeng walked out of the Founders' Hall and looked up at the sky.

A clear blue sky.

The stars in the sky appeared and disappeared intermittently.

Suddenly, streaks of light flashed by, like stars falling from the sky. They disappeared into the Evergreen Realm without a trace.

"This is--"

Lu Qingfeng tried to calculate with his fingers, but found the secrets of heaven to be in complete chaos, making it impossible to deduce anything.

However, the unusual celestial phenomena are certainly not ordinary.

"Is the world changing?"

Lu Qingfeng murmured, but before the thought could even finish, he felt the ground shake violently. Strangely, upon closer inspection, he felt no tremor beneath his feet. He stood on the ground as if it were flat.

That's really bizarre.

This change was not limited to Lu Qingfeng's immediate surroundings, nor was it confined to General Ridge.

The entire Central Plains and the entire Evergreen Realm were shaken at the same time.

"The heavens have changed."

"The Evergreen Realm is about to expand once again!"

In the Central Plains, the younger generation has always only heard legends about celestial changes, never actually seeing them.

After all, it was an event from sixty-five years ago. Most of those who experienced the first cataclysmic event have already passed away.

These new generations are unaware of the immense power and majesty they are about to witness.

With a light step, Lu Qingfeng landed on the Thundercry Mountain, looking down over the entire General Ridge.

In General Ridge, the streams widened, and the mountain peaks rose at a visible speed. Lu Qingfeng could see clearly that not far from Thundercry Mountain, there was a small mountain peak about thirty feet high, standing gracefully like an Arhat.

But now it is rising inch by inch, foot by foot, steadily.

In the blink of an eye, it had already risen several meters, and was still rising.

Looking down at Thundercry Mountain, the main peak of General Ridge, it was only a little over a hundred feet tall before the first celestial upheaval. After the upheaval, when Lu Qingfeng saw it, it had become a mountain thirteen hundred feet tall.

At this time.

Thundercry Mountain, which was originally 1,300 feet high, has undergone further changes.

Boom!

A deafening roar, seemingly from nowhere, echoed incessantly, startling birds and beasts on the mountain. Every blink of an eye, the mountain, over a thousand feet high, seemed to rise even higher.

Lu Qingfeng stared intently, using the Grand Luo Insight technique. He seemed to see a majestic immortal mountain in the void, brimming with immortal energy, standing outside Thundercry Mountain and constantly approaching it.

As the sacred mountain drew closer, Thundercry Mountain grew ever taller, and its 'temperament' changed, transforming into something otherworldly and ethereal.

"Divine Ability from the upper realm!"

"Great God of the Thunder Ministry!"

"Terrifying!"

Like ordinary people and cultivators under the age of sixty-five in the Evergreen Realm, Lu Qingfeng witnessed firsthand the dramatic changes in the world. Unlike before, when he was still conjecturing and relying on hearsay.

They even used Divine Ability to see more than ordinary cultivators.

Seeing it with your own eyes makes a huge difference.

"The first celestial change lasted for three months. After three months, the rivers in the Central Plains widened tenfold, the land expanded tenfold, and the mountains rose tenfold."

"It's unclear how long this will last, or to what extent it will ultimately reach."

Lu Qingfeng recalled the information he received from the system when he first arrived in the Evergreen Realm—

"Five thousand six hundred years ago, the Evergreen Realm collapsed in a battle. Traces of Evil Dragons were everywhere, and the Evergreen Realm was tainted with sinful Devil Qi, threatening to fall into the Demon Abyss. The gods of the Thunder Ministry used the thunder of the nine heavens to refine and purify the collapsed Evergreen Realm and re-form it."

"From this point on, the territory of the Evergreen Realm was compressed, and 100,000 li was reduced to one li."

"Ten thousand miles are reduced to one mile."

"But now we must reverse the situation and, through a series of 'celestial changes,' restore the original territory."

"One mile turned into ten thousand miles?!"

Lu Qingfeng's pupils contracted slightly.

In that case, what does the tenfold improvement from the first celestial change amount to?
