A Thousand Years of Enlightenment into World Cleansing, Divine Light's First Formation to Suppress Fiends

By the Chaos Spirit Pool on Yingzhou Immortal Island.

Li Changsheng stood quietly, his gaze fixed firmly upon the Pure World White Lotus at the pool's center, a trace of helplessness flickering in his eyes.

Though he had spent centuries crossing the vast East Sea in search of this supreme treasure, its foundation was flawless and its Dao charm rich, yet it had not fully matured.

The pristine white lotus petals had only unfurled a little over halfway. Its core origin was still slowly developing, and the power of its purification Great Dao was far from its peak.

At that thought, Li Changsheng's heart swiftly eased.

He himself was the Creation Green Lotus. Even now, his true body's origin had not yet reached full perfection and was still gradually transforming and growing.

The five lotuses shared the same origin. Their foundational roots had always been one and the same, and their circumstances were interconnected.

Since even he was like this, it was only natural that the Pure World White Lotus had yet to fully mature.

Judging by the timeline of the newly opened Primordial World, many innate spirit roots and innate supreme treasures were still being nourished by heaven and earth, slowly gestating. Very few supreme treasures had truly emerged in perfect form.

"What a pity."

Li Changsheng murmured softly as he rapidly weighed the pros and cons.

With his current foundation and the incomparably precious Opening Heaven Origin in hand, he could forcefully pour its power into the lotus, break through the shackles of heaven and earth, and forcibly mature the Pure World White Lotus.

But the thought had barely arisen before he rejected it outright.

The Opening Heaven Origin was the supreme foundation left behind by Pangu's opening of heaven. It was precious beyond measure, the core trump card he would rely on to break through his realm, perfect his true body, and contend against the Primordial World's saints and the shackles of the Heavenly Dao.

Using it merely to mature the white lotus in one go would be far too extravagant—a complete waste of a heavenly treasure.

No matter how he calculated it, the deal was not worth it.

"No rush. There is plenty of time ahead."

Li Changsheng quickly made up his mind.

He would first use the resonance of their shared Dao charm to comprehend the purification laws of the Pure World White Lotus.

As long as he grasped the World-Cleansing Great Dao, even if the white lotus was not yet complete, it would be enough to restrain the Opening Heaven baleful aura of the ferocious beasts and resolve the urgent crisis at hand.

As for the lotus's complete maturity, there was no need to hurry. He could nourish it gradually and let it grow step by step.

With his mind made up, Li Changsheng no longer hesitated. His figure moved, and he sat cross-legged directly at the edge of the Chaos Spirit Pool.

He withdrew every trace of his aura, and his mind settled completely, free of even the slightest stray thought.

The next moment, pale green Creation Dao charm slowly flowed from his body, winding around him in fine strands.

The Creation Green Lotus and the Pure World White Lotus had originated from the same source. The two ultimate lotus-platform Great Daos immediately resonated fiercely.

The Chaos spiritual energy within the pool began to churn. The Pure World White Lotus swayed gently, its white petals trembling faintly as streams of pure, flawless World-Cleansing Dao charm—made specifically to overcome all filth and baleful evil in the world—continuously drifted from the lotus platform and encircled Li Changsheng.

The two Dao charms intertwined, merged, and resonated, forming a perfect cultivation ground for enlightenment.

Thanks to their shared foundation, Li Changsheng's speed in comprehending the World-Cleansing laws was terrifying.

The purification Great Dao, which others could pursue for a lifetime without ever touching, lay before him with every vein and pattern clear at a glance. Countless profound and obscure Dao runes naturally poured into his sea of consciousness. He did not need to painstakingly deduce them before mastering them completely.

To accelerate the Pure World White Lotus's growth, Li Changsheng raised a hand and waved it.

The Three Radiances Divine Water he had preserved in the Pangu Minor World poured from his palm, turning into a brilliant stream of light that slowly merged into the Chaos Spirit Pool below.

The Three Radiances Divine Water was one of heaven and earth's foremost nourishing treasures. It contained the origins of the sun, moon, and stars, with boundless vitality capable of nurturing all things.

Paired with the Chaos Spirit Spring condensed from Yingzhou Island's origin, the effect of these two top-tier treasures was simply heaven-defying.

Under the combined support of the Creation Dao charm's shroud, the Three Radiances Divine Water's nourishment, and the Chaos Spirit Pool's immersion, the Pure World White Lotus's growth rate instantly increased by more than a hundredfold!

The petals that would originally have required hundreds of thousands of years to slowly unfurl now bloomed at a visible pace. Its purification Dao charm grew denser and purer by the moment.

Time flowed on, silent and fleeting.

No calendars in the mountains; a thousand years passed in the cold.

In the blink of an eye, a full thousand years quietly slipped away.

Over these thousand years, Yingzhou Immortal Island's spiritual energy remained constant, its Dao charm enduring. With no one to disturb him, it was truly one of the foremost sacred lands for enlightenment in the Primordial World.

The Pure World White Lotus at the center of the spirit pool had already undergone a complete transformation.

Its immaculate white petals unfurled layer by layer, three of them blooming steadily. Each petal shimmered with sacred, crystalline white light, untouched by even a speck of worldly dust.

An immensely dense power of world cleansing swept across the entire Yingzhou Secret Realm. The scattered impure miasma and fragmented baleful aura lingering in the air were completely washed away, leaving heaven and earth's spiritual energy pure and flawless.

After a thousand years of enlightenment, the one who had gained the most was naturally Li Changsheng himself.

Through the resonance of the two lotuses' shared origin and a thousand years of focused comprehension, he had finally gained a complete beginning in the World-Cleansing Great Dao, reaching a full ten percent mastery. His control of the Creation laws had reached twenty percent!

Do not underestimate that ten percent comprehension of the laws.

There were countless Great Daos, and getting started was the hardest part. Ten percent completion meant he had fully moved beyond superficial study and truly crossed the threshold of Great Dao cultivation.

The Great Daos of creation and world cleansing complemented and merged with one another, making his foundation increasingly profound and stable. His combat strength, divine soul, and origin all underwent comprehensive transformation and improvement.

What delighted Li Changsheng even more was that, through the World-Cleansing Great Dao he had comprehended over the thousand years and combined with his own Creation origin, he had forcibly condensed an exclusive supreme divine ability—World-Cleansing Divine Light!

This divine light was clear and immaculate, made to slay all evil in the world, destroy all filth, and purify the ancient baleful evil. It was the natural nemesis of the ferocious beasts' Opening Heaven baleful aura!

"A thousand years of accumulation. This journey was not in vain after all."

Li Changsheng slowly opened his eyes. A glimmer of lustrous white radiance passed through them, the divine light contained within—gentle, yet concealing supreme majesty.

His gaze once more settled on the Pure World White Lotus in the center of the spirit pool, his eyes gentle.

Although the white lotus's growth had surged, and it had bloomed three petals, making it far stronger than ordinary innate spirit roots, it still had not reached its final perfected state. More than half of its origin had yet to be gestated.

Li Changsheng did not entertain the slightest thought of plucking it or stripping away its origin.

His mind was perfectly clear.

The Pure World White Lotus was a core opportunity for him to perfect his Chaos lotus body, break through his realm, and resolve future calamities. If he greedily sought immediate profit and forcibly plucked it now, draining the pond to catch the fish, he would only completely damage the lotus's origin. The loss would outweigh the gain.

Only by leaving it in the spirit pool, slowly nourishing it and allowing it to grow steadily, could he continuously draw upon its origin in the future and fully elevate his true body into the ranks of top-tier Chaos spirit roots.

His gaze shifted slightly toward the twelve azure pearls floating around the lotus platform.

During the idle moments of his thousand years of enlightenment, he had already investigated the origins of these twelve pearls.

They were precisely the scattered, missing fragments of the Sea-Calming Divine Pearls' origin, famed throughout the Primordial World!

There were twenty-four Sea-Calming Divine Pearls. They contained the Great Dao of the vast ocean and suppressed the tides of the four seas, making them top-tier innate spiritual treasures.

However, these twelve damaged pearls were incomplete, their Great Dao shattered. To Li Changsheng as he was now, they held little value for cultivation or actual combat.

Rather than forcibly collect them only to leave them unused, it was better to leave them here.

The twelve divine pearls contained the complete Great Dao of water. Floating around the Pure World White Lotus, they could stabilize the spirit pool's aura, nourish the lotus platform's origin, and protect the white lotus as it grew safely. It was the best use for them.

Having thought this through, Li Changsheng completely put the matter aside and no longer paid attention to the pearls.

The most important matter now was to test the results of his thousand years of enlightenment!

With a thought, the Green Lotus Cage within his dantian trembled softly.

The next second, green light flashed, and an enormous pitch-black figure was directly cast out, crashing heavily onto the open ground of Yingzhou Immortal Island!

It was one of the Four Great Ferocious Beasts he had previously suppressed completely.

Taotie!

After a thousand years, Taotie remained bound by the dual powers of creation and opening heaven, unable to move.

The Opening Heaven baleful aura winding around its body had grown ever denser and darker. After lying dormant for a thousand years, the ferocious baleful power within it had not weakened in the slightest; instead, it had slowly continued to grow.

At this moment, Taotie's baleful aura soared to the heavens, its viciousness fully exposed. It was the perfect test subject for testing the might of the World-Cleansing Divine Light and verifying the effectiveness of the purification Great Dao!

Li Changsheng stood in the air, calmly watching Taotie struggle and roar below, unable to move. A confident curve rose at the corner of his lips.

A thousand years of enlightenment, and the World-Cleansing Dao is complete.

Today, I shall use this top-tier ferocious beast's body to test the might of my World-Cleansing Divine Light!
