Li Qingshan slowly opened his eyes, and the astonishing phenomena of chaos and the rotation of stars in his eyes completely disappeared, leaving only a profound and calm gaze after countless trials.
He exhaled a long, slow breath.
Standing up, his new divine body was light and full of power. Every inch of his body seemed to be in harmony with the Great Dao. With every move he made, he stirred up imperceptible ripples of Daoist energy around him.
He stood atop the central lotus platform of the enormous golden lotus, beginning to carefully examine this environment that had given him a new life, yet was utterly unfamiliar to him.
The first thing that comes into view is naturally the incredible golden lotus beneath me.
The lotus platform is as spacious as a plaza, and its entire body presents a warm and sacred golden color. It is not the cold hardness of metal, but a peculiar substance that exists between energy and physical form, full of active Daoist charm.
The surface of the lotus platform is naturally imprinted with ancient Daoist patterns of the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas. Although its light is now restrained, one can still feel the immense power of order and the mysteries of time and space contained within it.
Wisps of chaotic energy still emanated from the depths of the lotus platform, nourishing his Divine Embryo body.
His gaze drifted downwards.
Beneath the lotus platform was not nothingness, but a huge, bubbling spring.
From the spring, a dazzling, pure, and flawless liquid Immortal Radiance light gushes forth.
The spring water exuded an indescribable rich vitality and peaceful aura. Its purity, the life energy and fragments of the Great Dao contained within it, surpassed even the Nine Wonders Sacred Spring in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land of the Big Dipper deep in his memory!
It could even be said that the two are already different in terms of "quality".
The Divine Spring here is closer to the source of life and the origin of laws.
With a thought, Li Qingshan pointed his fingers like a knife and Void through the air.
Divine power surged forth from the Bitter Sea, transforming into an invisible container that carefully intercepted a small stream of Divine Spring water, as pure as nectar, from the gushing spring.
The spring water touched him; it felt cool to the touch, yet incredibly heavy, as if countless tiny, sacred runes were leaping within it. He slowly guided it into his own sea of life's Bitter Sea.
"Whoosh"
The moment that small stream of Divine Spring water fell into the dark Bitter Sea, it triggered a wondrous reaction.
The waves of the Bitter Sea rippled gently, and the dark waves seemed to become more vibrant and lively, with life force growing stronger.
More importantly, the water of this Divine Spring seems to contain some kind of "purifying" and "nourishing" principle.
After merging with the Bitter Sea, his divine power subtly improved in quality, and his soul felt an indescribable sense of comfort and clarity.
"Truly miraculous!" Li Qingshan thought to himself.
Such divine objects, if they were to appear in the outside world, would be enough to trigger a bloody battle at the supreme level.
Without hesitation, he made another move, using his vast divine power as a guide, like a whale sucking in water, continuously collecting a large amount of Divine Spring water from the spring, storing it in a specific area deep within the Bitter Sea for future use.
The dark Bitter Sea of bitterness, after absorbing this large amount of sacred spring water, not only felt no burden, but appeared even more vibrant, as if it had gained a life-giving lake to nourish itself.
After doing all this, he turned his gaze to the side of the lotus platform.
There, a simple, unadorned Small Bronze Coffin lay quietly.
The coffin was less than ten feet long, and its entire body was dark blue. The blurry patterns of the sun, moon, stars, gods, and demons on the coffin walls appeared even more desolate and mysterious against the backdrop of the surrounding misty fairy light.
The coffin lid had slid open completely, and the inside seemed empty, as if it were just an ordinary ancient burial object.
Li Qingshan guessed that it was this inconspicuous little coffin that carried his remaining Innate Spiritual Light across the endless sea of stars, ultimately bringing him to this land of Fortune.
Just as his gaze swept over the Small Bronze Coffin, preparing to examine the lotus platform and spring structure more closely in an attempt to understand where he was,
His pupils suddenly contracted, and his gaze abruptly fixed on the area where the golden lotus's massive root system intertwined with the source of the Divine Spring below!
There, a misty fog hung heavy in the air!
This mist was neither the Immortal Radiance rising from the Divine Spring, nor the Chaos Mother Qi, but rather an incomparably thick and heavy mist, seemingly capable of crushing the entirety of time and space, a mixture of black and yellow!
Xuan is the essence of heaven, with a deep and mysterious color, seemingly capable of drawing one's soul into it;
Yellow represents the earth's essence, thick and heavy, as if bearing the weight of the entire world.
The Xuanhuang Qi, intertwined, hazy and indistinct, seemingly light and ethereal, but in reality, Li Qingshan's divine sense was slightly approaching.
He then felt a terrifying pressure powerful enough to cause mountains to collapse and suffocate even the Mighty Figure!
Each wisp of mist seemed to be formed from countless mountains and stars condensed to their ultimate form.
It exudes a majestic aura that makes one tremble.
They quietly settled at the source of the Divine Spring, intertwined and symbiotic with the roots of the golden lotus that emitted a chaotic light.
It seems that from the very beginning, they have been one, together forming the true foundation of this wondrous land.
"This is the Xuanhuang Mother Qi!"
Moreover, to immerse yourself in reading Chapter 171: The Mother Qi of All Things Root, please click here. Such a vast amount of such pure Root Mother Energy!
Even with Li Qingshan's current Immortal Platform Second Layer Peak mental state, he couldn't help but be shocked at this moment, and his eyes flashed with disbelief!
How could he not recognize him!
This is the legendary supreme material in the art of weapon crafting: the essence of Xuanhuang, the very essence of heaven and earth!
It cannot be obtained through later refinement; rather, it was formed from a wisp of innate matter that emerged from the most primordial chaos at the very moment when heaven and earth were first created, Yin-Yang were separated, and the laws were established!
Xuanqi is the essence of heaven, and Huangqi is the marrow of earth. The fusion of Yin-Yang and Yang is the source of the mother energy that nurtures all things!
In the cultivation world, even a wisp of Xuanhuang Qi the size of a fingernail is enough to cause Mighty Figure to fight tooth and nail; it is the core material for forging Inherited Saint Weapon.
If one could find even a trace of the more refined " Xuanhuang Mother Qi," it would be one of the most essential divine materials for forging Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon!
Its value is immeasurable!
"Wait! The Mother Qi of All Things Source, the Bronze Immortal Palace!"
A powerful, absurd thought flashed through Li Qingshan's mind like lightning, leaving him momentarily stunned.
"This place, this Divine Spring, this golden lotus, this Xuanhuang Mother Qi —such a familiar combination and aura... Dao Self have returned to the Shrouding the Heavens Universe?"
Almost subconsciously, he fully unleashed his divine sense, more carefully sensing the laws of heaven and earth around him, trying to capture those familiar traces of the myriad paths belonging to the Shrouding the Heavens Universe.
The search for that despairing suppression of the Heavenly Dao that runs through the path of all cultivators is the greatest obstacle on the road to becoming an emperor, and also the most distinctive mark of the Shrouding the Heavens World.
However,
The Dao principles fed back by divine sense were vast, ancient, and profound, carrying a unique "charm" completely different from that of the Shrouding the Heavens World.
He did not feel the omnipresent, oppressive force of the Heavenly Dao that imprisoned all living beings!
This is not the Shrouding the Heavens World!
This is the Divine Tomb World.
" The Divine Tomb World actually contains the Mother Qi of All Things Source, and in such vast quantities!"
After the initial shock came deeper reflection.
Immediately, it dawned on him.
"Yes, the Mother Qi of All Things is the essence of the beginning of heaven and earth, and one of the cornerstones that constitute the origin of the world."
It is not exclusive to any particular universe.
Any truly vast and complete world, at its very beginning, will inevitably produce such divine objects.
Shrouding the Heavens Universe " exists, why can't this equally vast and boundless world of "The Divine Tomb," teeming with powerful beings, also exist?
"Perhaps in some more ancient and primordial worlds, such divine objects are not nearly extinct like those in ' Shrouding the Heavens,' but rather, relatively 'common'?"
This speculation stirred a slight emotion within him.
Different worlds indeed have vastly different foundations and rules.
In the world of Shrouding the Heavens, "the Mother Qi of All Things Source, considered a heaven-defying opportunity that could even tempt Great Emperor, might still be incredibly precious, but it is not unique in this realm.
What lies before us may well be the essence of this mysterious spring and golden lotus, drawn and settled from the origin of the universe over countless ages.
However, the original novel of the Divine Tomb does not seem to mention this place.
As his thoughts raced, Li Qingshan suppressed the turmoil in his heart.
In any case, with such an incredible opportunity before us, there's no reason for us to let it slip by!
In his past life memories, he vaguely knew of Ye Fan, his fellow Earth native and student who was also from the Forbidden Zone Heir.
It seems that by sheer coincidence, he obtained the Mother Qi of All Things Source in the infamous " Bronze Immortal Palace," laying one of the important foundations for his invincible path to becoming an emperor: the Cauldron of All-Things Mother Qi.
What appeared before him at this moment was clearly a Xuanhuang Mother Qi Source! Its total amount was probably more than enough to forge an Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon!
This is simply an incredible stroke of luck!
Li Qingshan did not hesitate. If he did not seize such an opportunity, he would surely be punished by heaven!
He took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and focused all his energy on circulating the Western Emperor Scripture.
His body erupted with a dazzling radiance, and beneath his skin, it seemed as if chaotic runes were flowing, granting him terrifying power enough to crush a meteorite with his bare hands.
At the same time, he carefully drew upon his own Bitter Sea Divine Power, transforming it into an invisible giant hand, which slowly reached out towards the condensed Xuanhuang Mother Qi.
"Buzz!"
The moment the powerful hand touched the mist of yin and yang, it suddenly sank!
It was as if what was being lifted was not mist, but a real, condensed mountain range! It was incredibly heavy!
Li Qingshan groaned, his divine light intensified, and the Bitter Sea roared as he exerted all his strength to support himself.
Just then, the golden lotus beneath him seemed to sway slightly, and the chaotic light flowing from the lotus platform and the Order Divine Chains wrapped around its roots emitted a gentle yet strange power.
It seemed to neutralize some of the domineering "heavy" law of the Xuanhuang Mother Qi, causing the resistance to collection to decrease significantly.
Taking this opportunity, Li Qingshan let out a low shout, Bitter Sea, like a ferocious beast with its jaws wide open, unleashed a powerful suction force!
"Receive!"
