Whether it's the power of the Five Elements or the power of the Four Spirits, both can actually stabilize the world.

The problem is that the Five Elements Spiritual Ring in Luo Qing's hand is of too low a level; its main function is to suppress space.

The suppressive power applied to the Cave Heaven and Small World is not quite right.

Luo Qing currently possesses Wind, Fire, and Water Spirit Pearls. Whether he collects another Earth Spirit Pearl or Three Spirit Pearls: earth, wood, and metal, he can achieve his goal.

A set of Four Spirits or five elements can be used to suppress the World Origin.

To achieve the Five Elements, Luo Qing would need to find Three Spirit Pearls.

To achieve the Four Spirits, all you need to do is find the "Earth" Spirit Pearl.

Temporarily putting the Five Elements Spirit Pearls out of his mind, Luo Qing focused his attention on the "Earth" Spirit Pearl.

Are the Earth Spirit Pearl and the Earth Spirit Pearl the same thing?

Luo Qing was filled with doubts.

Without a doubt, the Water-Fire Spirit Pearls are among the Four Spirits of Heaven-Opening, representing Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, and Water, with Water and Fire directly occupying the positions of Water and Fire in the Five Elements.

However, whether "earth" and "soil" are the same Origin of the Great Dao remains to be discussed.

"If the Earth Spirit Pearl truly exists, it's likely located within Zhou Mountain!"

If we're talking about the most likely place where the Earth Spirit Pearl could appear, then it has to be Buzhou Mountain, the Heavenly Pillar of the Primordial Era.

Originally, Luo Qing did not plan to go to Buzhou Mountain during the Taiyi stage.

One reason is the long distance, which takes too much time.

Although Zhou Mountain is rich in treasures, even Primordial Unity Golden Immortal would probably be unable to enjoy them.

Luo Qing planned to wait until he reached the Daluo Golden Immortal realm before trying to seize any opportunities.

However, because he needed to gather Four Spirit Pearls of Heaven-Opening, Luo Qing had to bring forward his plan to Zhou Mountain.

However, Buzhou Mountain was, after all, the most precious place in the entire Primordial Wilderness, where countless legends took place.

Luo Qing was confident in his own strength, but he still dared not go rashly.

He planned to cultivate in the Kunlun Mountain first, and ideally break through to the Peak Taiyi before heading to Buzhou Mountain to search for treasures.

What Luo Qing needs to do now is race against time. It would be best if he could break through to the Peak Taiyi before the three races officially start their war.

The river of time flows mightily, and years are worthless.

Luo Qing stayed in the Hua Tian Grotto-Heaven, studying the Heaven-Opening Imprint and comprehending the Fire Rule every day.

Suddenly one day, a ripple appeared in the Mountain-Protecting Array outside Hua Tian Mountain.

Luo Qing was startled awake from his state of enlightenment by the fluctuations of the great formation.

"A Primordial Unity Golden Immortal has come to pay a visit!"

Upon opening his eyes, Luo Qing immediately frowned.

Ordinary Golden Immortal Gold Gods cannot even reach the front of the Mountain-Protecting Array Hua Tian Mountain.

Now that the grand formation has been awakened, it goes without saying that the newcomer must be Taiyi cultivator.

This is the first time in nearly 50,000 years since Luo Qing settled in Kunlun Mountain that someone has come to visit Hua Tian Mountain.

When Luo Qing stepped out of the cave, opened the mountain gate, and looked at the newcomer...

Luo Qing's pupils contracted slightly; this visitor was truly extraordinary.

Outside Hua Tian Mountain, a handsome Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, dressed in a blue robe, wearing Face Crown, and holding a Wooden Staff, stood on the clouds.

In the Eye of the Great Dao, his body was permeated with a rich aura of the Five Elements of Wood and a supremely Yang and true energy.

The visitor's identity is obvious!

"How could it be the East King Duke!"

Luo Qing 'Eye of the Great Dao immediately recognized the newcomer's identity.

"Wasn't the East King Duke born in the East of the Vast Sea? How come he's on Kunlun Mountain!"

This question flashed through Luo Qing's mind, but he didn't show it on his face.

Luo Qing pretended not to recognize the East King Duke and cautiously asked:

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask what brings you to my mountain gate?"

When East King Duke saw Luo Qing walking out of the mountain gate, he was slightly surprised.

Originally, judging from the small size of Hua Tian Mountain, East King Duke assumed that the Taiyi cultivators residing there must not be very strong.

Unexpectedly, what emerged was a Top Deity at the late Taiyi stage, who was cultivating the Taiyi Immortal Dao.

The East King Duke immediately abandoned his contempt and bowed to Luo Qing, saying:

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to be nervous. My name is Daoist Donghua. I have come to pay my respects to you to invite you to discuss the Dao."

After East King Duke explained, Luo Qing finally understood the man's purpose.

The East King Duke was passing through this place and saw that most of the cultivators on Kunlun Mountain were Divine Dao cultivators.

He then conceived the idea of discussing the Dao with the cultivators of Kunlun Mountain and spreading the Dao of Immortal Dao.

This trip to Hua Tian Mountain is to invite Luo Qing to a philosophical discussion on the highest peak of Kunlun a hundred years from now.

After pondering for a few breaths, Luo Qing nodded in agreement to the East King Duke's invitation.

Having invited Luo Qing, a late-stage Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, the East King Duke departed satisfied.

As Luo Qing watched the East King Duke disappear into the horizon, a playful smile appeared on his lips.

He never expected to encounter the East King Duke in the Kunlun Mountain.

As for the excuse given by the East King Duke, he claimed that he happened to pass by Kunlun Mountain and wanted to Kunlun Gods' Discourse and spread the teachings of Immortal Dao.

Luo Qing didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart.

In the Central Primordial Era, both the Immortal Dao and the Divine Dao are now flourishing, and Immortal Dao cultivators are not uncommon.

At this point in the Primordial Wilderness, the time had passed when it was necessary to spread immortal techniques through discussions of the Dao.

In the Central Primordial Era, those who can cultivate to the Metal God or Grand Unity Golden Immortal are not necessarily those who have switched to the Immortal Dao immortality.

Most people also have some understanding of immortal techniques; it's not like the Immortal Dao has just emerged.

"What is the purpose of the East King Duke's visit to Kunlun Mountain at this time? Could it be that he is here for the West Queen Mother?"

Aside from the West Queen Mother, who is paired with the East King Duke in legend, Luo Qing did not believe that there was anything else in the Kunlun Mountain that would attract the East King Duke.

However, it seems that the West Queen Mother has not yet been born, so isn't the East King Duke arriving a bit too early?

It's like you're already trying to curry favor with your future mother-in-law before your future wife has even been born—that's way too hasty!

"This is no simple matter, no simple matter at all!"

Luo Qing muttered to himself, feeling that something was amiss.

However, Luo Qing still intends to attend the Kunlun Gods' Discourse a century later.

One purpose was to investigate the background of the East King Duke, and the other was to get to know the "neighbors" in the Kunlun Mountain.

After East King Duke left Hua Tian Mountain, he was still recalling Luo Qing, whom he had just met.

"This Fellow Luo Qing has the Foundation of a top-tier Innate God. Judging from the fireflies surrounding his body, he should be a Fire God."

The East King Duke highlighted the Foundation Luo Qing's Top Innate Fire God.

"Let's move on to the next one!"

After placing Luo Qing on a Primordial Unity Immortal God List of Kunlun Mountain, East King Duke headed to the next Primordial Unity Cave Mansion.

A century has passed in the blink of an eye.

Luo Qing also came to the highest peak on Kunlun Mountain at the invitation of the East King Duke.

Kunlun Peak, located in the West Kunlun Mountains!

This mountain peak is so lofty and solitary, reaching straight into the Nine Heavens.

The earth's veins cannot rise sufficiently, resulting in an excessively thin Spirit Qi, making it unsuitable for cultivators to live and practice.

As a result, this mountain, named after the Kunlun Mountain Range, remains untouched to this day.

At this moment, more than a dozen Grand Unity Golden Immortal have gathered on Kunlun Peak, along with East King Duke and Luo Qing, two Primordial Unity Golden Immortal.

All the top immortals and gods on Kunlun Mountain have now arrived.

Luo Qing scanned the area with his Eye of the Great Dao and was quite surprised.

Of the seventeen Grand Unity Golden Immortal, only three are high-level gods, nine are mid-level gods, and five are low-level gods.

"I never imagined that Kunlun Mountain would be so sparsely populated! There isn't even a single top-tier Innate God or Daluo Golden Immortal!"

No wonder Kunlun Mountain isn't very well-known in the Primordial Wilderness.

Luo Qing remained expressionless and bowed to everyone:

"My name is Luo Qing, and I greet you fellow Daoists!"
