Gu Yuanqing found another place to fish.

Having Heavenly Angling Technique, choosing a location was very simple for him: as long as there were no people nearby, the water flowed swiftly, and Dao Soul gathered, it would suffice.

He was lucky this time; no one came to bother him for several days in a row.

However, on the Nine Heavens, they had to change locations again because a Upper-Grade Profound Tier Dao Soul had taken the bait. Even though Gu Yuanqing reacted quickly, he immediately enveloped it with his own domain.

However, since the Dao Soul and the Boundless River were one, the aura resembling that of the Void Heaven still soared into the sky, attracting the attention of Cultivator in the distance.

Gu Yuanqing quickly captured the Dao Soul, then packed his things and fled.

Dao Soul at the Upper-Grade Profound Tier is already enough to attract a lot of attention; leaving it here will only cause more trouble.

Moreover, Refinement Profound Tier Dao Soul takes time, so naturally, a safe place needs to be found.

Not long after he left, several people arrived at his fishing spot, only to find it deserted and leave disappointed.

Meanwhile, Gu Yuanqing had already traveled to a mountain a thousand miles away and spent half a day Refinement the Dao Soul.

He opened his eyes, a fleeting trace of indifference passing through them.

He frowned slightly and muttered to himself, "Time to go out."

The influence of such a high-grade Dao Soul is far greater than that of an ordinary Dao Soul. Having learned from past mistakes, Gu Yuanqing would not be careless.

He carefully concealed his belongings again and then exited the Ancient Realm.

On North Spring Mountain, Gu Yuanqing's Divine Soul returned to his Physical Body. He did not immediately take out the Red Dust Wine, but instead, taking advantage of his state after Refinement the Dao Resonance, he calmed his mind and transformed the so-called Dao Soul into his own Dao cultivation.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye before he opened his eyes. He was in top condition. Then, he took out the Red Dust Wine and drank three large gulps.

As the bitter taste gradually turned fiery, it felt as if knives were cutting into my entire body and Divine Soul.

A moment later, feeling the effects of the alcohol, he emptied his mind and body and fell into a deep sleep.

Memories of the past resurfaced in my mind.

When I awoke again, the indifference in my eyes had completely vanished. All the past events seemed to have changed like the Canghai, Human Heart a sense of wonder.

Each time I look back, I have slightly different feelings.

He looked down at the pot of Red Dust Wine.

"This wine itself is the wine of enlightenment. Reflecting on past worldly affairs and comprehending the changes in one's emotions, it is of great benefit to the Divine Soul."

The so-called cultivation is the cultivation of mind and body, and Red Dust Wine can be regarded as a sacred product for cultivating the mind.

"The wine left behind by King of the Underworld has accelerated my cultivation path by immeasurable amount, far surpassing the mirror that could glimpse the secrets of Heavenly Secrets but was ultimately unusable."

"Cultivation is everything, especially for me. With the North Spring Spirit Mountain, my power can be amplified several levels."

Gu Yuanqing stood up, walked out of the palace gate, and strolled through the mountains, using the beauty of the landscape to soothe his emotions.

The path of spiritual practice is like cooking: stir-frying over high heat and simmering over low heat, paying attention to the balance of heat. Only in this way can one remain impartial and walk the Righteous Path.

While relying on the Dao Soul can lead to rapid progress, it also requires leisure and tranquility to cultivate one's character. Only by combining the two, maintaining a balance between tension and relaxation, can one achieve long-term success.

Within the Ancient Realm.

Chen Shiwei, the patriarch of the Chen Family in Slanting Moon World, had been fishing for many days, but had not caught much.

Dao Soul feeds on the Dao. To catch it, one's own Dao Bait must be effective. If one's cultivation level is insufficient, catching it is entirely a matter of luck.

Today, the sky is overcast and rainy, and a light mist rises from the Boundless River.

Chen Shiwei suddenly sensed something, turned around, and saw a person coming from a distance and stopping not far from him.

This person was dressed in black and had gray hair.

Chen Shiwei stood up, cupped his hands in greeting, and said with a smile, "Brother Wang, what brings you to the Boundless River?"

The visitor was none other than Wang Zufeng, the Void Heaven Ancestor of the Wang Family. He said in a hoarse voice, "I've come specifically to find you."

Chen Shiwei asked in surprise, "Looking for me?"

Wang Zufeng said, "I sent the younger members of my family to inquire in your clan. They learned that you went into the Ancient Realm to fish for Dao Soul and haven't come out for a long time, so I rushed over. How was your harvest this time?"

Chen Shiwei said with a wry smile, "It's like I've wasted two months of my life, only to catch a few Dao Soul that haven't even reached the next level."

"This is how you fish for Dao Soul. Otherwise, so many Void Heaven Cultivator in the Exquisite World wouldn't be trapped Void Heaven. But Daoist Friend, don't be impatient. Perhaps one day you'll fish up a few Profound Tier Dao Soul compatible with you."

Chen Shiwei sighed, "No one is as lucky as you Daoist Friend."

Wang Zufeng's cultivation level was similar to his back then, but he almost pushed his cultivation to the Great Void Heaven Great Accomplishment realm by relying on a few Profound Tier Dao Resonance.

"Alright, let's get down to business. What brings you here, fellow Daoist?"

Wang Zufeng's expression turned serious as he said, "Over the years, when I cultivate, my mind and spirit align with the heavens and Heaven and Earth, yet I am often inexplicably awakened, as if Great Calamity is about to befall me. I initially thought this was a calamity for my Wang Family or for myself, so I have lived in seclusion for years, secretly preparing to guard against a formidable enemy. However, I recently encountered the head of the Ji Family, and he also had this feeling."

Upon hearing this, Chen Shiwei's expression changed, and he slowly said, "So Brother Wang also feels this way?"

Wang Zufeng's heart skipped a beat, and he said in a deep voice, "Could it be that Brother Chen is also like this?"

Chen Shiwei's expression turned serious, and he nodded slightly. Over the years, he had thought that someone was just plotting against the Chen Family, but now it seemed that it was not that simple.

Wang Zufeng's unease grew stronger, and he said in a hoarse voice, "I haven't asked Brother Tong yet, but Ji Fanglin will verify with the Bai Clan. If they all feel the same way, then there's a big problem."

Chen Shiwei said, "If that's the case, it means our Slanting Moon World might face annihilation."

Wang Zufeng nodded and said, "That's right. After reaching the Grandmaster level, we Cultivator can sense danger through our blood and premonitions. But this time, the blood sensing is different from the past. The sensing occurs at the moment when Heaven and Earth and earth are in conflict."

"This suggests that the Qi (energy) of the Slanting Moon World may be Fortune Warning."

The two of them talked back and forth, their tone becoming increasingly serious and their expressions increasingly grim.

Heavenly Dao issues a warning, a great calamity is imminent, one that could potentially destroy an entire realm.

"World Conflict!" Chen Shiwei slowly uttered two words.

Wang Zufeng nodded and said, "Brother Chen thinks the same way I do."

Chen Shiwei said, "But that is just a Floating World. When I first looked at the Heaven Ladder Rankings, the highest cultivation level there was only the Divine Platform Seventh Level. The rest of them hadn't even stepped into the Divine Platform. Even with the help of the Heavenly Ladder, how could they possibly be a match for my Slanting Moon World in just a hundred years?"

Wang Zufeng said in a deep voice, "The matter of World Conflict has not occurred for many years. A Floating World that should not have been able to accommodate Divine Platform Realm cultivator has become Divine Platform Seventh Level after only ten years since the Heavenly Ladder descended. This is enough to explain the situation. A hundred years later, it is not impossible for it to become Void Heaven Realm cultivator. After all, anything can happen under that Heaven-Connecting Stele."

"But we and our families went to great lengths, even expending High-grade Spirit Vein and sending out Cultivator at the Divine Platform Ninth Layer, just in case. This shouldn't have happened."

"But the younger generation of my Wang Family and the Ji Family are all dead." A trace of pain flashed in Wang Zufeng's eyes. Wang Yuchi was his most beloved junior, who had the potential to reach the Void Heaven, but he was killed in the Floating World.

Chen Shiwei frowned. "But I heard that during the last Soul Summoning, my grandson Chen Zhengfeng said..."

Wang Zufeng interrupted, "Daoist Friend, have you ever heard of the Soul-Control Technique?"

Chen Shiwei's heart skipped a beat. Chen Zongyao had mentioned this matter to him when he returned last time, saying that his son seemed different from before.
