"Come, I'll take you to see the Dao field where you'll cultivate. You must first raise your own cultivation."

Po Jun Ancestor spoke earnestly. "Otherwise, the other Holy Sons may refuse to accept it."

"Changge accepts the order."

Su Changge cupped his hands.

Po Jun Ancestor stroked his beard and looked at Su Changge with satisfaction. He was deeply gratified.

The Great Dao was difficult to seek. Even after awakening such a physique, he remained neither arrogant nor impetuous. Only with such a temperament could one achieve the Great Dao.

"Condense."

Po Jun Ancestor waved his hand.

A golden Great Dao stretched out through the void, suffused with Golden Runes, its end leading straight into the depths of the Holy Land.

"Come, Changge. I'll show you the Dao field where you'll cultivate."

When Su Changge stepped onto the golden Great Dao, it actually began moving on its own, smooth and steady.

The scenery beneath his feet shifted constantly. Immortal light drifted in the air, and clouds and mist billowed.

Within the Holy Land, many divine mountains floated in the sky. Countless magnificent Palaces stood atop them, wreathed in rosy clouds.

Immortal cranes soared through the mist, like a dreamlike immortal realm.

"Our Returning Origin Holy Land has one hundred and eighty-two floating Divine Islands. As for towers, terraces, and Palaces, they are too numerous to count."

"There is also an ancestral ground within the Returning Origin Holy Land. That is where old fellows like us usually cultivate."

"The Dao Palace where you will cultivate, Changge, is called the Returning Origin Holy Hall. It is the place with the densest spiritual energy in our Holy Land. Cultivating there will let you achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"Look, it is up ahead." Po Jun Ancestor pointed in a direction as he explained.

Divine light swirled there, and laws of the Great Dao permeated the air, filling the place with a sacred aura.

There were many palaces, towers, and terraces within, with carved beams and painted rafters. White mist rose, spiritual energy gathered, and everything was provided—from a Martial Arts Arena to small viewing pavilions.

After Po Jun Ancestor finished showing Su Changge around,

Po Jun Ancestor took out a cultivation art and handed it to Su Changge. "This cultivation art is called the Myriad Paths Returning Immortal Art. It is the most core cultivation art of our Returning Origin Holy Land, and its origins are too ancient to trace."

"Yet for a thousand years, no one has been able to cultivate it to great mastery. I believe that you, Changge, will definitely break this record."

Po Jun Ancestor reminded him once more to cultivate diligently before leaving.

"No one for a thousand years? Then there was someone before those thousand years?"

Su Changge felt somewhat puzzled, unable to tell what riddle Po Jun Ancestor was speaking in.

The Returning Origin Holy Hall was vast, yet there was not a single furnishing within it. It looked somewhat desolate.

He summoned the system again.

"Use the novice gift pack."

As Su Changge's words fell, a gorgeous treasure chest suddenly appeared in the void, radiating seven-colored divine light.

With a click, the treasure chest slowly opened, dazzling divine radiance spilling out from within.

The host's luck has exploded. Congratulations on obtaining the World Tree Seed, Azure Heaven Sword, Godslaying Sword Intent, and Immortal Spirit Treasure Armor.

"Luck has exploded?" Su Changge guessed it was some kind of random reward, like a lottery draw.

Looking at the four items, he was delighted. Each one had its own remarkable qualities.

"Extract the Azure Heaven Sword."

Su Changge murmured softly. Faint ripples appeared in the void before him, and a longsword tore through space as it descended.

With a crisp sword cry, the entire sword appeared before his eyes. It was roughly three feet long.

The blade was as dazzling as a mirror, cold light flowing over its tip. Merely looking at it made one shudder.

The hilt was carved from some unknown divine wood, with the words Azure Heaven engraved upon it, as though it held the intent to command heaven and earth.

Azure Heaven Sword: A derivative battle weapon of the Heavenly Dao Authority Sword. It can borrow the Power of Heavenly Dao to cut through all illusions in the world. It is the sharpest sword in the world.

"Azure Heaven Sword? A branch of the Heavenly Dao Authority Sword? Perhaps this sword has quite the background."

Su Changge gripped the longsword and walked toward the diamond stone in the Martial Arts Arena. He wanted to test just how sharp this sword was.

Swish!

Sword radiance flashed as he slashed diagonally.

The diamond stone was instantly cut in two at its waist.

Even the defensive formation within the Martial Arts Arena was affected by that strike, cracking open with a crunch.

Su Changge sucked in a cold breath. This protective formation could withstand a Venerable Realm expert, yet it had been destroyed so easily!

"This sword truly is extraordinary."

"If I raise my cultivation in the future, the sword strike I unleash will probably be unimaginably terrifying."

"After drawing something this good, could I have used up all my luck?"

Su Changge muttered to himself.

Luck was hard to predict. Whoever used it all up first would leave first.

As long as he was not the one leaving first, that was enough.

Afterward, Su Changge continued looking through the system panel.

"Extract the Godslaying Sword Intent."

Buzz—

A vast, obscure aura bored into his mind. At that moment, he was like a divine sword piercing through heaven and earth.

Because of the system, the Godslaying Sword Intent had already been born within him.

Godslaying Sword Intent: Legend has it that during an ancient war, a Sword Dao Genius from the Immortal Realm proved the Dao through the sword and became a Sword Dao Immortal Emperor. This was his signature sword intent, comprehended after exhausting countless years with all he had learned in his life. With a single thought, Gods and Devils emerged; his sword intent reached the divine. With sword intent soaring above the heavens, he slew the myriad Dao gods of the world.

"The Immortal Realm? An ancient war? Slaying the gods of the world?"

"Even such a terrifying sword intent exists. Could there also be things from the Primordial era? Like the Twelve-Petal Golden Lotus or the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda?"

Su Changge shook his head with a bitter smile. If a Primordial Supreme Treasure really appeared in the future, would he not soar straight into the heavens?

"Right, there's also Yin Yang Sword Qi." Su Changge looked at the system mail and clicked to claim it.

"Extract Yin Yang Sword Qi."

Two streams of light entered his body, one red and one blue, like a Yin Yang Cycle.

Yin Yang Sword Qi: Supreme yin and supreme yang, capable of transforming at any time. Eternal frost, blazing great sun; with a single thought, yin and yang—sword qi at its ultimate.

"Yin Yang Sword Qi, Godslaying Sword Intent, and a sword—is this making me into a sword cultivator?"

Su Changge did not dwell on it. Combined with his physique, it would simply be terrifying beyond measure.

"Since ancient times, there has never been a sword cultivator with an Innate Saintly Body Dao Embryo."

"With my talent and physique, perhaps I can become the greatest sword cultivator of all ages."

He could already envision the scene in the future.

The Sacred Body Phenomenon descended upon the Nine Heavens, the Godslaying Sword Intent swept across the sky; with a smile and a laugh, everything turned to ash!

He looked toward the next item again.

"Extract the Immortal Spirit Treasure Armor."

An illusory suit of armor slowly condensed in the void, then transformed into a stream of light and entered Su Changge's body.

He felt his senses become even more sensitive to spiritual energy.

Immortal Spirit Treasure Armor: Gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, transforms it into immortal energy to protect the body, and can withstand a Holy Master's full-force strike.

Su Changge nodded in satisfaction. The Immortal Spirit Treasure Armor did not even make him feel any weight. With such formidable defense, he feared no attack!

"The last one is the World Tree Seed." Su Changge looked at the system panel. The World Tree—just hearing its name, it sounded like an incomparable existence.

"Extract the World Tree Seed."

As his words fell, five-colored divine light appeared in Su Changge's Dantian. The aura it emitted was sacred, as though it had existed when chaos first opened.

As his consciousness gradually entered the five-colored divine light, his vision suddenly opened up.

Before his eyes lay a vast and boundless world.

At the center of that world, a tender sprout had already grown. It seemed to be the ruler of heaven and earth, as though everything had been born because of it.

Though it was only a sprout, it supported a small, incomplete world atop itself.

One could imagine that if this World Tree grew, every countless branch and leaf would become a world, while the World Tree itself would become the source that evolved everything in existence.

"So that's it. The World Tree Seed—the legendary tree of heaven and earth—can evolve all the Great Daos of the world."

"One leaf, one world; one branch can reach the heavens. I need to provide it with sufficient Five Elements Power for it to grow. If it successfully matures, I will be able to command the power of three thousand worlds, and with a single force, shatter all heavens and myriad realms!"

"I'll look for Five Elements Power later."

With a thought, Su Changge tossed the Azure Heaven Sword into the World Tree Seed.

The World Tree Seed could be used as a storage space.

That vast and boundless world could even contain hundreds of millions of living beings.

Ding! New mission detected. Option One: I am strong. I know it. Immediately set out to suppress the other Holy Sons and establish the prestige of the Divine Son. Reward: Nine Heavens Reincarnation Dao Art. Option Two: Continue cultivating and raise your cultivation. Reward: Spirit Gathering Sky Dome Formation.

Su Changge could not help but get a headache.

Although his strength had undergone a heaven-shaking transformation, there was no need for Option One.

"Continue cultivating."

The host has completed the option. The reward has been credited.

Su Changge looked at the system page again.

Spirit Gathering Sky Dome Formation: A cultivation formation from the era of immortals. It gathers the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for one's own use. The higher the talent of the cultivator, the more spiritual energy it gathers.

"Good stuff. A pillow arrives just when I'm sleepy!"

"Perhaps the Spirit Gathering Sky Dome Formation, combined with the Myriad Paths Returning Immortal Art, can bring me gains beyond imagination."

After extracting and using the Spirit Gathering Sky Dome Formation,

Su Changge fell into enlightenment once more. The ancestor had also thoughtfully left him a trick for quickly comprehending the Myriad Paths Returning Immortal Art.

In but a moment,

after comprehending the Myriad Paths Returning Immortal Art, Su Changge mobilized the spiritual energy laws within his body.

Suddenly,

with his body at the center, runes appeared throughout the surrounding space. Divine light flowed through them, radiating an obscure Dao rhythm.

At that moment, all the spiritual energy in the Returning Origin Holy Hall seemed to receive some unseen summons, surging madly toward Su Changge!

The spiritual energy transformed into dazzling light that coiled around him, making him look like a deity descended from the Nine Heavens.

If anyone saw it, they would surely be stunned beyond words.

Above the Returning Origin Holy Hall,

it was as though even the winds and clouds of the Nine Heavens were being stirred by this vast spiritual energy, whirling rapidly like a vortex.

This terrifying phenomenon also drew countless gazes.

"Is the Divine Son cultivating? Such terrifying spiritual energy is truly unheard of!"

"Most likely. The Returning Origin Holy Hall only has the Divine Son right now. Apart from him, there should be no one else."

"The Divine Son possesses the unprecedented Innate Saintly Body Dao Embryo. Such a phenomenon is not impossible, but for mere cultivation to create such an exaggerated commotion is simply too shocking!"

Many disciples of the Returning Origin Holy Land could not help but let their imaginations run wild.

The spiritual energy within the Holy Hall was incomparably dense, so dense that it was nearly turning tangible!

In such an environment, given his talent, advancing a thousand miles in a day would not be an exaggeration.

Su Changge was completely immersed in cultivation, utterly unaware of the discussions outside.
