This was no longer something that could be described as great Fortune or a great opportunity.
Even setting aside the Reincarnation Authority it contained.
The Twelfth-grade Lotus Platform alone, when Saints fought one another,
would provide immense assistance.
Not to mention its ability to suppress Fortune!
"Good! My Interception Sect has worthy successors!"
"Third-generation disciple..."
"Eldest Brother, Second Brother, this time, I've pulled ahead again!"
Jiang Yun left the stone cavern and continued climbing upward.
He soon reached the mountaintop!
The enormous fault line was incredibly conspicuous, resembling an entire continent.
Standing atop Mount Buzhou, with his Golden Immortal Dao Fruit formed and his divine sense unobstructed, he gazed into the distance.
He saw that throughout the hundreds of millions of miles below the mountain—the former main battlefield of the War of Witches and Demons—Baleful Qi still surged while Poisonous Miasma spread everywhere.
Endless resentment and deathly Qi intertwined, turning the place into a forbidden zone for living beings.
After the Investiture of the Gods war, the Saints' battle shattered the Primordial World.
Hongjun intervened to repair it and demarcated the Four Great Continents!
Mount Buzhou would then be moved to the Northern Kuru Continent.
The Baleful Qi and Poisonous Miasma would spread completely, turning the Northern Kuru Continent into a land of barren mountains and treacherous waters, where few living beings could survive.
Jiang Yun's gaze sharpened.
"This Baleful Qi is disaster, is Karmic Power..."
"But to me, it is also a tremendous opportunity!"
A bold plan slowly took shape in Jiang Yun's heart!
"Mount Buzhou was formed from Pangu's spine. This Baleful Qi is also part of Pangu's legacy—how could it be squandered for nothing?"
"Today, I shall follow Lady Houtu's example and perform an act of Merit for this Primordial World!"
At that thought, Jiang Yun's Dao heart became crystal clear!
He immediately sat cross-legged, his expression solemn, no longer suppressing the thoughts in his heart.
Buzz—!
The Upper-grade Xiantian Spiritual Treasure he had obtained from the Six-Armed Clan, the Four Symbols Bell, was summoned!
Earth, wind, water, and fire—the Four Symbols—circulated across the bell, its Dao charm naturally formed.
Jiang Yun immersed his mind within it and began refining it with all his strength!
No years were counted in the Primordial World.
For mortals, fifty years was already half a lifetime.
For Jiang Yun, it was merely the flick of a finger!
On this day, an incomparably profound notification suddenly exploded in Jiang Yun's mind!
[You refined the Four Symbols Bell atop Mount Buzhou. After comprehending it day and night, you finally captured the trace of Innate Undying Divine Light contained within!] [After comprehending this trace of Innate Undying Spiritual Light, you gained an insight!] [All things in heaven and earth, all matter, are formed from the Four Symbols. You have comprehended the profundities of the Four Symbols Laws. Your Four Symbols Laws... have been initiated!]
Boom!!
Jiang Yun's entire body shook!
At the Golden Immortal realm, his Laws had been initiated!
If news of this spread, it would be enough to shake all races of the Primordial World!
One had to know that even Grand Unity Golden Immortals with profound foundations might not be able to initiate even one Law in their entire lives, much less glimpse the path to Quasi-Sainthood!
Yet this was not over!
The notification sounded once more!
[Through the profundities of the Four Symbols Laws, you have begun to reverse-engineer the Yin-Yang Laws!] [You understand that all things in the world belong to Yin-Yang, and that Yin and Yang generate and complement one another!] [You have comprehended the profundities of the Yin-Yang Laws. Your Yin-Yang Laws have been initiated!]
"!!!"
Brilliant divine light burst from Jiang Yun's eyes!
Two great Laws!
And they were Yin-Yang and the Four Symbols, top-tier Great Dao Laws ranked among the foremost!
"The Book of Changes has the Supreme Ultimate, which gives rise to the Two Forms; the Two Forms give rise to the Four Symbols..."
"So that was it!"
A flash of inspiration struck Jiang Yun, and his Heaven-Defying Comprehension displayed its utmost power at this moment!
[After comprehending the Four Symbols Laws and Yin-Yang Laws, you did not stop!] [You have realized that the Two Forms and Four Symbols are mutually complementary, mutually generating and restraining, the foundation of heaven and earth's evolution!] [Combining your own insights, you have created an array—the Two Forms Four Symbols Life-Restoring Grand Array!]
It had succeeded!
Jiang Yun abruptly rose to his feet and threw back his head in laughter!
"Hahaha! My Dao has no more worries!"
The Two Forms Four Symbols Life-Restoring Grand Array, as its name implied!
Within the array, a space formed on its own. The Qi of the Two Forms annihilated all things, while the spirits of the Four Symbols suppressed and slew!
Even more terrifyingly, this array possessed the effect of "restoring life."
It could return things to their origin, purifying all filth, Baleful Qi, and Karmic Power into the purest Innate Spiritual Qi!
This was the great gift Jiang Yun had prepared for Mount Buzhou's boundless Baleful Qi!
"Only, I still lack the materials to set up the array..."
Jiang Yun sent his divine sense into the Mountain River Pearl and smiled at the Innate Silent Sun Fruit Tree, the Primordial Spirit Fruit Tree.
"Fellow Daoist, I'll have to trouble you for a moment!"
The Silent Sun Fruit Tree had already developed spiritual intelligence and immediately conveyed a sense of closeness, indicating that it did not mind.
Jiang Yun did not stand on ceremony. He took four branches containing the intent of life and death's cycle.
He then took out a drop of Three Lights Divine Water to nourish its foundation.
Afterward, he plucked the four newly formed Banana Leaf Fans from the Banana Tree, each a High-Grade Houtian Spirit Treasure!
Using the Silent Sun Fruit Tree's branches as flagpoles and the Banana Leaf Fans as banners!
He summoned Purple Sun True Fire and began refining the treasures!
In merely three days, the four array flags, suffused with divine light and containing the essence of the Four Symbols, had been refined!
All of them were High-Grade Houtian Spirit Treasures!
"Go!"
With a sweep of Jiang Yun's sleeve, the four array flags turned into streams of light and descended into the four directions around Mount Buzhou!
Then the Upper-grade Xiantian Spiritual Treasure, the Four Symbols Bell, crashed down and suppressed the array core!
The vertical eye between Jiang Yun's brows opened. The Yin-Yang Immortal Eye flew out and descended into the array's core!
Buzz—!
In an instant, a terrifying grand array spanning a thousand miles and evolving the Two Forms and Four Symbols rumbled into operation!
"Still not enough!"
Jiang Yun's gaze sharpened!
The Two Forms Four Symbols Life-Restoring Grand Array could only purify; it could not autonomously draw in Baleful Qi.
"Lunar Dark-Baleful Grand Array, arise!"
Boom!
Nine Baleful Corpses at the Mid-stage Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, each holding a Profound Yin Banner, set up a second array outside the Two Forms Four Symbols Grand Array!
The Lunar Dark-Baleful Grand Array specialized in drawing in and devouring!
The Two Forms Four Symbols Life-Restoring Grand Array specialized in purification and restoring life!
The two grand arrays complemented one another and fused perfectly!
Boom—!
In an instant, the endless Baleful Qi and Poisonous Miasma spanning hundreds of millions of miles around Mount Buzhou seemed to find an outlet. They transformed into rolling black dragons and were frantically drawn over by the Lunar Dark-Baleful Grand Array!
They were then swept into the Two Forms Four Symbols Grand Array, where they were continuously worn away and purified...
Strands of pure Innate Spiritual Qi slowly began to spill forth!
"Good!"
Jiang Yun was overjoyed at the sight!
"This Baleful Qi... cannot be wasted!"
He pointed again!
Eighty-one Golden Immortal Baleful Corpses appeared and flew into the array!
Then a drop of blood containing majestic power appeared in Jiang Yun's hand. It was the Great Witch Blood Essence Jiang Yun had traded from the Great Witch Xiang Liu.
He sent that drop of Great Witch Blood Essence obtained from Xiang Liu into the array!
A massive amount of demonic creature flesh and blood was also tossed in by Jiang Yun as though it cost nothing!
Finally, Jiang Yun himself sat cross-legged at the center of the grand array, his expression solemn.
The Dark-Baleful Calamity Sovereign Body operated at full force!
He divided his attention between two tasks, using the Baleful Qi to refine Baleful Corpses while cultivating divine abilities!
No years were counted in the Primordial World, and cultivation knew no passage of time.
This immense purification atop Mount Buzhou passed in the blink of an eye—one hundred years.
For a hundred years, day after day!
To Jiang Yun, it seemed like nothing more than the flick of a finger.
Yet the Baleful Corpses beneath him grew stronger by the day under the nourishment of endless Baleful Qi!
Meanwhile, the dense Baleful Qi and Poisonous Miasma around Mount Buzhou gradually thinned with each passing day!
