Myriad Spirits Garden (Please Follow and Vote Monthly!)

Thoughts whirled through his mind as Lu Yuan rode an auspicious cloud, swiftly cutting through the Void Sky Dome of the Primordial World toward Qingxu Mountain Cave Heaven Blessed Land, trillions upon trillions of miles away.

Perhaps because most Great Divine Ability Users and Great Luo Dao Lords were listening to the Dao at the Purple Sky Palace beyond the heavens, the Primordial World was relatively peaceful overall.

Yet along the way, battles and slaughter among living beings were as commonplace as daily meals. A small portion of them fought over spiritual treasures and resources.

Far more often, the Witch and Demon Clans were campaigning against the myriad races of the Primordial World. In order to seize control of the Primordial World's land, the Witch Race either massacred every living being that refused to submit or reduced them to food for the Witch Race.

The Yao Race, meanwhile, sought to expand its power by transforming the postnatal myriad spirits into demonkin. Any race willing to join the Yao Race Heavenly Court would migrate in its entirety to the Thirty-Three Heavens, while those who stubbornly resisted were all reduced to slaves of the Yao Race!

However, the Witch and Demon Clans seemed to share some unspoken understanding. Each campaigned against the myriad races of the Primordial World without interfering in the other's actions, as though they had vaguely divided their spheres of influence.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Lu Yuan deliberately took a detour, steering clear of the territories where the Witch and Demon Clans were waging war.

With the Witch and Demon Clans contending for supremacy in the Primordial World, the seeds of calamity had already been sown. Both races were fierce and belligerent. Though Lu Yuan did not fear them, he had no wish to become entangled by karma with them.

Otherwise, if karmic ties dragged him into the vortex of the Witch-Demon Calamity, Lu Yuan would truly be left wanting to cry without tears!

After attaining the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit and cultivating to the mid-stage Golden Immortal realm, Lu Yuan's travel speed increased dozens of times over. From the Kunlun Mountain Dao Field in the eastern lands of the Primordial World to Qingxu Mountain Cave Heaven Blessed Land in the Southern Region of the Primordial World, it took him only a little over three thousand years.

That was still with him deliberately taking a detour to avoid the territories contested by the Witch and Demon Clans. Otherwise, he could have arrived in one or two thousand years!

Upon returning to Qingxu Mountain, Lu Yuan swept the sacred mountain with the power of his Primordial Spirit. With a single thought, his awareness enveloped the entire mountain range. Over the course of one kalpa, quite a few living beings had appeared within it.

However, only twenty or thirty had stepped into the Immortal Dao, most of them Origin Immortals or True Immortals.

The strongest among them were still the three cultivators with the foundations of Innate Living Beings. After a kalpa of accumulation and solitary exploration of cultivation, they had unexpectedly attained Heavenly Immortal cultivation.

A trace of pity instantly rose in Lu Yuan's heart!

As Innate God-Demons who had taken form within Qingxu Mountain Cave Heaven Blessed Land, the living beings of this sacred mountain were naturally linked to him by a thread of karma.

After the Witch-Demon Calamity ended, when he established his Dao lineage on Qingxu Mountain and opened the mountain to spread the Dao, he would also need subordinates and attendants. With that thought, Lu Yuan made his decision.

"I am Immortal Lord Qingxuan, master of Qingxu Mountain. Today, I have returned from wandering the Primordial World. Taking pity on the hardships you face in seeking the Dao, I will preach the Dao at Qingxu Mountain one thousand years from now. All who are fated may come and listen!"

Having spoken, Lu Yuan's figure vanished into the entrance of the Cave Heaven Blessed Land and entered within.

His voice spread throughout the entire Qingxu Mountain range, reaching straight into the hearts of every living being. The creatures of Qingxu Mountain were both shocked and delighted.

They were shocked because the voice had appeared so suddenly and reached directly into their hearts. Immortal Lord Qingxuan's divine abilities and magical power were unfathomable!

They were delighted because the master of Qingxu Mountain, who had attained the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit and become an Immortal Lord, was actually willing to preach the Dao to them.

Though they lived in a remote place and had shallow knowledge, the living beings of Qingxu Mountain—especially the twenty or thirty cultivators who had stepped into the Immortal Dao—understood what an immense Dao achievement the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit and the body of an Immortal Lord represented!

Such an existence had already attained an undying body. The Primordial Spirit bore fruit, gathered the Power of the Great Dao, and embarked upon the road of pursuing the Great Dao!

Filled with excitement, the living beings of the Qingxu Mountain range bowed toward the void, eagerly awaiting the day of the Dao sermon.

Meanwhile, after entering the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, Lu Yuan inspected the information from the two formations and discovered that no living beings had sneaked inside, nor were there any flaws in the entire Cave Heaven Blessed Land.

Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. He then found a treasure ground atop the dragon vein at the place where he had taken form, where Yin-Yang converged and all five elements were present.

Lu Yuan began transforming this treasure ground. He watered and nourished the soil with Water of Life, sprinkled it with Three Lights Divine Water, then set up a grand formation to gather the Innate Spiritual Qi within the Cave Heaven Blessed Land.

"Perhaps it cannot compare to the divine soil Breath Soil, but after being nourished and cultivated by the Water of Life and Three Lights Divine Water, the immortal soil of this treasure ground can still be considered a superior treasure. From this day forth, this place shall be called the Myriad Spirits Garden, helping me fulfill my wish of collecting the immortal grasses, spiritual plants, exotic flowers, and strange herbs of the Primordial World!"

Feeling the soil brimming with life within the Myriad Spirits Garden, a smile flickered in Lu Yuan's eyes.

He then took the Innate Spiritual Plants, Postnatal Immortal Roots, exotic flowers, and strange herbs from his Purple Mansion Ancestral Aperture and Spirit Platform Secret Realm, and planted them one by one according to their innate attributes, filled with hope.

A hundred years later, after all those Innate Spiritual Plants, Postnatal Immortal Roots, exotic flowers, and strange herbs had been planted, the Myriad Spirits Garden was lush with verdant life and had begun to take shape.

Lu Yuan gradually sensed wisps of Power of Creation brewing within it, as though the Myriad Spirits Garden had gained a strand of Qi of Creation.

The entire Myriad Spirits Garden seemed to be undergoing an intense transformation, evolving toward a secret realm spirit land.

"Perhaps one day, this Myriad Spirits Garden will evolve into a Blessed Land Cave Heaven. If there were several more Myriad Spirits Gardens within the cave heaven, then Qingxu Cave Heaven might one day be raised into an Immortal Heaven, or even transform into an Innate Dao Domain!"

Sensing the Power of Creation, Lu Yuan spoke with a trace of amazement, his heart filled with emotion!

The secret realms of the world were divided into five kinds: spirit lands, blessed lands, cave heavens, immortal heavens, and Dao domains.

Among them, Dao domains were the highest, while spirit lands were the lowest!

A Dao domain was a Great Dao realm, neither in the mortal world nor in the heavenly realm. Suspended high beyond the Chaos Void, it had already evolved the embryonic form of Heavenly Dao and could draw in chaos qi, transforming it into Innate Spiritual Qi.

If it could withstand the power of the Heavenly Punishment of the Primordial World's Heavenly Dao, a Dao domain could even leave the Primordial World and independently evolve into another universe.

Although an Immortal Heaven could hang high in the void, draw in Chaos Vital Energy, and transform it into Immortal Heaven Spiritual Qi, it had two fatal shortcomings compared to a Dao domain.

First, the Great Dao Rules within an Immortal Heaven were incomplete, and it had not evolved the embryonic form of Heavenly Dao. Though it could dwell above the Nine Heavens, comprehending the Great Dao still could not be separated from the Primordial World.

Second, the Immortal Heaven Realm Membrane was flawed. It could not withstand the long-term erosion of chaos qi and simply could not leave the protection of the Primordial World.

As for Blessed Land Cave Heavens, they could all be called immortal realms of the world. They could draw in Starlight Power and Worldly Vital Energy, and so were rich in spiritual qi and filled with spiritual treasures.

However, blessed lands lay within the mortal world. Unless their gates were tightly shut, they would suffer the impact of the karma of Mortal Worldly Dust.

Cave heavens, on the other hand, were raised aloft and had already left the mortal world. They faintly possessed the embryonic form of a heavenly realm, able to look down laughing upon the karma of Mortal Worldly Dust.

Though the Myriad Spirits Garden currently possessed only the embryonic form of a spirit land, it would gradually transform as the number of Innate Spiritual Plants, Postnatal Immortal Roots, exotic flowers, and strange herbs increased.

Backed by Qingxu Cave Heaven and bolstered by the power of its Cave Heaven Dragon Vein, Lu Yuan held great expectations for the Myriad Spirits Garden's future!

After reflecting for a while, Lu Yuan placed even greater importance on the evolution and transformation of Qingxu Cave Heaven!

As thoughts flashed through his mind, Lu Yuan headed to the second convergence point of dragon veins and harvested the Profound Yin Extreme Fiend Fruit and Purple Green Vital Qi Lotus.

After one kalpa, the Purple Green Vital Qi Lotus spiritual root had produced six first-grade lotus flowers, while the Profound Yin Extreme Fiend Fruit tree had borne twenty-four Innate Spiritual Fruits.

Together with the remaining Purple Green Vital Qi Lotuses and Profound Yin Extreme Fiend Fruits from before, he now had nine First-grade Purple Green Vital Qi Lotuses and thirty-six Profound Yin Extreme Fiend Fruits.
