Two Paths, the Origin of the Earth Immortal Method, Arrival Overhead, a Startling Discovery
Wherever the Azure Firmament Water Man passed, strands of wood energy refined by his Divine Ability entered the bodies of the Dao Foundation cultivators, taking root and sprouting into large trees within the [Ten Thousand Trees Heavenly Canopy].
Subsequently, every Foundation Establishment cultivator who met him began to respectfully exchange information about various academies with him.
With its superior status, the Yin Spirit's thoughts directly observed their memories, quickly gaining information about the Earth Spirit Sect's history, strength, and other details.
However, sensing the increasingly stern gaze of the talisman figure behind him, the Azure Firmament Water figure smiled slightly. Upon arriving at the superior-grade spirit field assigned to him, he tossed out a bag of spirit tree seeds. Under the influence of the Purple Mansion Divine Ability, countless wood energies converged here, instantly stimulating these spirit trees to the First-Tier Middle Grade.
This is not a mid-grade spiritual plant for Foundation Establishment cultivators, but rather First-Tier Middle Grade that is almost equivalent to the early stage of Core Formation.
This sudden change greatly surprised Taichang, who had been paying close attention to the area. Seeing this, she prepared to destroy the talisman and report to the Nascent Soul Elder.
However, by using these dozens of spiritual willow trees to create the Avatar of [Ten Thousand Trees Heavenly Canopy], she would not be allowed to report the news. The abnormality of the local Qi Destiny was instantly concealed by the Qi Destiny of the Foundation Establishment cultivators who were influenced by the wood energy, so much so that the sect's protective formation, which governs a region, did not react.
Located deep within the heart of the Earth Spirit realm, a circular array of stones continuously gathers information from the surrounding earth veins, spiritual lands, and treasure lands, deducing the development status of various places. The information flow of the array's light screen, which was originally continuously deducing, paused for a moment before returning to normal.
A silver river seemed to fall from the spirit field, sealing off the area, before appearing normal to outsiders.
These dozens of spiritual willow trees formed Formation Domain, [Heavenly River of Return to Oneness], completely sealing off all of the talisman figure's external perception abilities. Then, countless Qi Destiny Seed. Following the divine thoughts of Taichang within the talisman, it silently entered the depths of his soul and took root.
However, the use of [Ten Thousand Trees Heavenly Canopy] is never about modifying the soul, but rather about working on the more ethereal Qi Destiny. To be precise, this Qi Destiny Seed is also a nourishing supplement. However, whether to eat it or not, how to eat it, and what the consequences of eating it are not things that can be resisted.
This is the domineering nature of the [Great Forest Wood]. On the one hand, it shelters the creatures under its towering tree from wind and rain; on the other hand, all creatures must obey it and cannot disobey. It can even subtly influence the habits, personalities, and logic of the "plants" by adjusting the different environments under the tree.
Seeing this, Taichang Chang, who had originally wanted to activate the restriction in his soul, gradually changed from resistance to calm and bowed in the direction of the little figure in the Azure Firmament Water.
The Avatar ignored all of that and instead received Taichang's conclusion about the Earth Spirit Sect. Unlike the simple information that Foundation Establishment cultivators usually received, this time it truly glimpsed a corner of this sect with a history spanning countless millennia.
The true recorded history of the Earth Spirit Sect begins in the Dharma-ending Age. After the great battle between the first generation Dilingzi and Qingxuanzi, the sect split into two factions. After their deaths, the two sects went down completely different paths of development.
The cultivators who inherited the Dilingzi's legacy believed that since the concentration of spiritual energy in the world was constantly decreasing due to the cultivators continuously absorbing spiritual energy and taking it away after ascending, and because of the great war between cultivators, the world continent was damaged and fell in rank, unable to support the survival of High Tier cultivators, and even began to intentionally target all cultivators, bringing down life-long tribulations, lightning tribulations, and inner demon tribulations.
Therefore, a complete revolution must be carried out on the entire Cultivator System, transforming the original positioning of cultivators as consumers or even parasites into helping the development of heaven and earth, sorting out the earth's veins, cultivating more abundant life forms, and even one day creating collaborators who can refine Chaos matter like cultivators at the Void Refinement stage.
This would not only allow us to return to the ancient golden age, but it's even possible that our world could advance further and become a celestial realm that other worlds could ascend to.
The Clear Mysteries Sect chose the path of drawing upon the spiritual energy of the world to support one sect and one person, thereby breaking through the already fragile spatial barrier and enabling the sect to ascend to immortality.
Upon seeing this, the Avatar Avatar.
"It would be better to fully support one person in cultivating the Earth Immortal Method, refining an inner blessed land that is isolated from the laws of the outside world, thus remaining unaffected by the lifespan calamities of the outside world. In this way, one can ascend or remain in this world with a sense of control, instead of wasting away generation after generation in this way."
Although this is viewed from the perspective of the Avatar, the fact that these two ideas have been able to continue is basically due to the internal power structure of the two sects. The Earth Spirit Sect implements an elder council system, which uses voting to appoint and dismiss members to implement sect policies and guidelines.
Judging from some of the classic texts in the Taichang Memory, the Clear Mysteries Sect has always respected the Supreme Elders who have reached the Spirit Transformation stage.
Of course, he wasn't interested in the messy affairs within these sects. What truly concerned him was the origin of the Earth Immortal Method Earth Spirit Sect.
That's right. The Earth Immortal Method of the Earth Spirit Sect is not their original creation. Rather, it was developed by cultivators who survived the Great War of the End of Dharma, who inherited a portion of the Supreme Clarity Immortal Sect's legacy. They found a fragment of a blessed land in the ruins of the Immortal Sect and deduced the subsequent cultivation method from it.
As for why, whether there were already Earth Immortal lineages before the Dharma-ending Age or the era was still in its decline, the Earth Spirit Sect believed that at that time everyone was thinking about transcending the world and going to a Vastness realm, rather than being trapped in this world. Even if there were such Earth Immortal cultivators, the number of practitioners was too small to achieve any breakthroughs.
The Earth Spirit Sect's promotion of its power within a single region was naturally extraordinary, and indeed it was. Based on the fragments of that blessed land, after tens of thousands of years, its cultivation methods in Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Core Formation had become quite mature. Taichang had even heard rumors that the cultivation method for the Nascent Soul realm had been completed. However, building a blessed land required a large amount of precious resources. Fortunately, [Clear Void Heaven] was still capturing small worlds, which allowed them to establish this Earth Spirit Blessed Land to verify their cultivation methods.
The cultivator who controlled the Earth Spirit Blessed Land had already broken through to the Spirit Transformation stage, and his lifespan was one or two thousand years longer than that of an ordinary Spirit Transformation. This made some Nascent Soul cultivators even more concerned about expanding and plundering.
"It's just that Nascent Soul like those in the Earth Spirit Sect Spirit Transformation, who value that blessed land fragment more than their own lives, wouldn't let a mere Core Formation enter."
The Avatar thought for a moment.
"Let's first use Taichang to control a portion of the Core Formation cultivators."
As time passed, after two days of careful navigation through the dense fog that cut off communication, the [Heavenly River] finally arrived at the crystal wall layer above the Earth Spirit Blessed Land, thanks to the concealment provided by the Dark Star talent.
Avatar atop the warship, he observed the Qi Destiny of the Earth Spirit Sect from afar, using his Golden Nature position.
Among them, the Qi Destiny representing the Earth Immortal's Path soared into the sky, being the most prosperous and vigorous of all Qi Destiny. However, from High Tier perspective, a black and evil aura shrouded the sky above these Qi Destiny.
