Qing Xuan and Qing Yi Attain Great Luo Together! The Arrival of the Dragon Race's Great Luo

Eastern Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner, a Supreme Innate Spirit Treasure.

From this moment onward, Qing Yi finally possessed a true treasure to protect her Dao.

However, the two had gained more than just a spirit treasure this time.

After the Ancestral Vein had fully revived, Innate Dao Rhythms accumulated over countless years surged into both of them at once.

The world behind Qing Xuan began operating on its own, no longer requiring his active maintenance. The sun and moon still rose and set, while the mountains, rivers, and Four Seas continued their cycles.

The World Great Dao thus truly approached perfection.

The same was true for Qing Yi. The creation she had previously witnessed was the growth of all things, the birth of spiritual vitality.

Now, for the first time, she had personally caused an Ancestral Vein that had already shattered to be reborn from destruction.

Creation was not merely life. The vitality that could return even after experiencing destruction was true, complete creation.

Twelve Epoch Cycles of accumulated Dao discussions were truly validated at this moment.

The auras surrounding the two of them simultaneously crossed the final threshold.

Taiyi Golden Immortal perfection.

One step further lay the Daluo Dao Fruit, the realm that truly stood among the Primordial World's mighty experts.

A vast river without beginning or end faintly emerged from the depths of heaven and earth.

Countless possibilities of past and future surged endlessly within the river.

It was the River of Time.

It was also Taiyi's final step toward Great Luo.

The Great Dao could be traveled together, but the Dao Fruit could only be proven by oneself.

Qing Xuan took a step forward, his figure plunging straight into that beginningless, endless River of Time.

Almost at the same moment, a figure in a green dress followed.

Boom!

The river, which had originally only faintly appeared in the depths of heaven and earth, abruptly became clear.

Every surging wave reflected countless different possibilities.

In some, Qing Xuan remained on Buzhou Mountain to cultivate in seclusion and never emerged. In others, he accepted Hongjun's invitation and entered the northern battlefield. In still others, he died during one of his searches for the Dao.

Countless figures raised their eyes at once.

In that instant, it seemed as though countless Qing Xuans had emerged from the river of time, seeking to contend with his present self for the one true self.

Qing Xuan's expression did not change.

A vast, boundless world slowly spread out beneath his feet.

Within that world, mountains and rivers manifested, the sun and moon rose, and countless laws intertwined and flowed.

Every figure reflected in time was drawn into it.

The World Great Dao had never rejected any possibility.

It carried all things and embraced all Daos.

Yet no matter how many changes this world possessed, there had always been only one person who opened it.

Qing Xuan took a second step forward.

Countless phantoms shattered at once, transforming into streams of origin that merged into the vast world behind him.

The true self was singular.

On the other side, Qing Yi likewise entered the River of Time.

Wherever she passed, azure lotuses quietly bloomed amid the tides of time.

Some took root beneath Buzhou Mountain and remained untransformed through countless years.

Some left alone after taking form.

Others vanished into the river of time before they could truly bloom.

Flowers bloomed and withered, life and death revolved in cycles.

Amid countless azure lotuses, a figure in a green dress stood quietly.

Qing Yi lowered her eyes at those different possibilities. There was neither confusion nor hesitation in her clear gaze.

Her origin, her source, even every path that might exist beneath her feet—none of them could decide who she was for her.

The lotus was where she came from.

Creation was her Great Dao.

And she was Qing Yi.

Buzz!

The phantom of the Creation Green Lotus slowly bloomed behind Qing Yi. Azure light reflected through the years as every phantom returned to its origin one by one.

The Eastern Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner unfurled in the wind, casting down myriad streams of azure light that fixed the surging tides of time at her side.

At the same time, the world beneath Qing Xuan's feet grew ever broader.

The world carried creation.

Creation bestowed vitality upon the world.

Two entirely different Great Daos reflected each other within the River of Time, yet remained independent, without the slightest confusion.

Rumble!

The entire River of Time shook violently at this moment.

Qing Xuan and Qing Yi took their final step at the same time, thoroughly gathering all the possibilities scattered across past and future.

Two fruits of the Great Dao condensed above endless years.

From this day onward, across all Space-Time, the true self was singular.

Once proven, forever proven. Once attained, forever attained.

Great Luo!

In an instant, phenomena illuminated hundreds of millions of miles of eastern mountains and rivers.

A vast world stretched across the heavens, with sun, moon, and stars circulating endlessly within it, as though it truly carried an infinite heaven and earth.

Immediately afterward, a Creation Green Lotus bloomed from the center of that world.

Its lotus leaves unfurled, and azure light covered the heavens.

One world, one azure lotus.

They depended upon one another, yet each formed its own Great Dao.

Across the eastern lands, every Innate Divine Being who had entered the Great Luo realm sensed it at this moment.

Two Great Luos had attained the Dao at the same place, at the same moment!

Somewhere in the Primordial World.

Within an unnamed immortal mountain, Hongjun, who had been comprehending the Creation Jade Disc, slowly opened his eyes.

His gaze crossed endless mountains and rivers, settling upon the world and the phantom of the Twenty-Four-Petal Azure Lotus in the eastern sky.

A moment later, a faint smile appeared on the young Daoist's face.

"World, creation."

"You two Dao friends have finally reached this step."

At the same time, above the eastern Ancestral Vein, the vast River of Time gradually faded away, and Qing Xuan and Qing Yi returned from above the years together.

No pressure swept across heaven and earth, nor did their mana spiral out of control. The moment the two opened their eyes, all phenomena quietly returned into their bodies.

The Daluo Dao Fruit had been attained.

Qing Xuan sensed the heaven and earth that differed completely from the Taiyi realm. Only now did he truly understand that what Hongjun had displayed during their Dao discussion had still been merely one corner of his own Great Dao.

That being who now walked ahead of all Innate Divine Beings was far more unfathomable than Qing Xuan had once imagined.

Yet there was no frustration in Qing Xuan's eyes.

The Great Dao was long. Taking one step ahead did not mean one could never be caught up to.

Beside him, Qing Yi slowly opened her eyes.

The phantom of the azure lotus behind the young woman folded away, and the Eastern Green Lotus Treasure-Colored Banner returned to her hand.

Qing Yi first examined her own Dao Fruit, then turned to Qing Xuan.

"Qing Xuan, we both made it."

Qing Xuan looked into her clear, pure eyes, and a faint smile appeared on his face. "We agreed to do this together. Naturally, neither of us would be left behind."

Qing Yi nodded gently.

The young woman said nothing more. Her little face remained cool and composed, but it was still obvious that Qing Yi was in a very good mood.

At that moment, in the far eastern reaches.

An ancient dragon boat, as though cast entirely from gold, traveled through seas of clouds and the Water Veins.

After the Beast Emperor's death, the Water Veins damaged by Fierce Beasts throughout the east had yet to fully recover. The Dragon Race was reorganizing the rivers, lakes, and seas, stabilizing the eastern waters.

Upon the dragon boat, Qiuniu, Ancestor Dragon's eldest son, was lowering his head as he inspected a map of the Water Veins covering most of the east.

One dim Ancestral Vein suddenly lit up with unprecedentedly brilliant spiritual radiance.

Qiuniu raised his head.

At the end of the heavens, the phenomena of the world and the Creation Green Lotus had yet to fully fade. Yinglong, standing at the front of the dragon boat, also opened his eyes at this moment.

As one of the Dragon Race's true Great Luos, he understood more clearly than Qiuniu exactly what had just happened.

"Two people attained the Dao on the same day."

"The Great Daos they followed complement one another, yet each has condensed into a complete Dao Fruit."

The world and azure lotus that had yet to disperse were reflected in Yinglong's eyes. His tone was calm, but it carried a few more degrees of seriousness.

Qiuniu glanced at the map of the Water Veins in his hand.

"This Ancestral Vein also revived after they arrived."

They had repaired an eastern Ancestral Vein torn apart by Fierce Beasts, then attained Great Luo here together.

Whether or not the other party wished to befriend the Dragon Race, the Dragon Race ought to go and meet them, both out of sentiment and reason.

Qiuniu put away the map of the Water Veins. "Let's go take a look."

Yinglong did not object.

The next moment, the enormous dragon boat turned around and sailed toward that newly revived Innate Ancestral Vein.

Above the Ancestral Vein.

Qing Xuan seemed to sense something and suddenly looked eastward. Qing Yi turned her face at the same moment.

Between the distant heaven and earth, a vast, ancient Dragon Race aura was crossing layer after layer of mountains and rivers toward them.

One of those auras was unmistakably Great Luo as well.
