Qing Ling took out a spiritual jade, personally carved the Dao patterns, the words "Fu Yu", then sent it away with a wave of his hand. It floated in mid-air, standing before the mountain.
Qing Ling pointed his finger, and a long white jade staircase suddenly appeared beneath his feet, leading directly to the mountain peak.
Qing Ling took out the Nine Heavens Xirang, took out a grain and dropped it to the ground. It transformed into rows of palaces and pavilions, some grand, some unique, some exquisite, halls and gatehouses, a building every five steps, a pavilion every ten steps, winding corridors, and eaves that pecked at the sky; each hugging the terrain, their structures interlocked. A long bridge lay across the water, what dragon could it be without clouds? A double-tiered corridor hung in the air, what rainbow was it without rain? High and low, dimly uncertain, not knowing east or west.
Then, one by one, rare treasures, Daoist jade slips, and exotic spiritual roots and seeds from Qing Ling's sleeve fell into the spiritual fields and treasure pavilions on Fu Yu Mountain. Countless rare treasures merged into the myriad palaces and pavilions on Fu Yu Mountain. Various spiritual lights and auspicious phenomena converged in the sky above Fu Yu Mountain, forming ten thousand auspicious clouds, endless jade light, and endless floating clouds, truly matching the name Fu Yu.
The five people and one beast were greatly shocked. They had never imagined their master to be so wealthy. These rare treasures, spiritual roots, and immortal seeds were enough to cultivate a transcendent force.
These rare treasures were spiritual objects that Qing Ling had accumulated since his cultivation in the Primordial Era, as well as the heavenly spiritual medicines he had once planted in the Eastern Wasteland. He had lived for a long time, so he naturally accumulated more things. Moreover, the longer the time, the rarer and more precious the heavenly treasures in his hands became.
He and Nuwa had even emptied the Heavenly Court of the Demon Clan.
It was mainly Nuwa. Qing Ling only collected things that were useful to him, but even so, the treasure trove accumulated by the overlord of heaven and earth for three hundred Yuanhui, how could ordinary people imagine it?
Qing Ling only took some of the fur, while Nuwa did not even let go of the fur. Everything that could be moved from the Heavenly Court was taken away by Nuwa. Even the twenty-eight divine pillars supporting the Nantian Gate were taken away by Nuwa.
The present Heavenly Court was already a true ruin. Many rogue cultivators who wanted to take advantage flew to the Heavenly Court, only to find ruins everywhere, and terrifying beings imprisoned in the heavenly prison also broke free and escaped.
Nuwa moved most of the things from the Heavenly Court to the Demon Realm and began to form a new Demon Court. The foundation of the demon race, apart from the demon saints and demon gods who perished in the great battle, had not been greatly depleted.
As for who would become the next Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Court, and who would take over this mess, Nuwa did not care at all, as it was not her demon race that would rule the Heavenly Court anyway.
Qing Ling slowly walked up the white jade steps and stood on the mountain peak, overlooking the three hundred million li of Fu Yu Mountain. The ninety-eight thousand three hundred and more palaces and pavilions were shrouded in auspicious clouds and myriad radiant colors, truly a scene of an immortal holy land.
Everyone present was also moved by the scene, and their hearts were inevitably filled with heroism and a bright future.
Qing Ling swept his sleeve, and beside a majestic great hall on the mountain peak, bright crimson Luo Sheng flowers bloomed, growing enchantingly around the hall, the flowers and the palace becoming one, as if a palace stood above ten thousand flowers.
Qing Ling smiled and said, "From now on, this palace will be my residence, named Fu Luo Palace. The great hall on the left west side will be the Myriad Treasure Hall, and the great hall on the right east side will be the Myriad Dao Hall. Behind Fu Luo Palace is the Myriad Medicine Garden, where spiritual treasures, Dao scriptures, and spiritual medicines will be stored separately. The remaining halls will be used for various other matters such as alchemy, artifact refining, seclusion, power transmission, receiving guests, and storage. You may each find a mountain peak outside the main peak to establish your own cave abode.
From now on, my Qing Ling lineage will reside here permanently."
Everyone bowed down and respectfully said, "We respectfully obey the Dao Master's decree."
After they left, Qing Ling looked at the Zhu beast in front of him and said, "Bei Ju Lu Continent is full of demons and fierce beasts. From now on, you will guard the mountain gate and not slack off. One day, you will also achieve merit and perfection."
The Zhu beast nodded frantically and bowed in thanks. It flew back to the mountain gate and transformed into a statue, serving as the guardian beast.
Qing Ling glanced at the mountain gate, thinking, "It seems I need to catch another fierce beast. A pair would be perfect."
He shook his head, put one hand behind his back, and leisurely walked back into Fu Luo Palace. He sat on the cloud bed, his primordial spirit moved, and the power of the ten directions of heaven and earth converged. A ring of great Dao barrier surrounded Fu Yu Mountain for three hundred million li, leaving only an opening at the mountain gate.
This great Dao barrier was a restriction formed by him using Hunyuan power to mobilize the power of wood Dao, far surpassing the mountain protection array. To break through this great Dao barrier, one would have to be Dao above his own.
In the Primordial World, only the six Sages had the strength to leave his restriction. Apart from them, even peak Great Experts could not step into Fu Yu Mountain.
Only by passing through the mountain gate and seeking an audience could one enter.
Although the name of a Sage could deter petty thieves, he still had to guard against those old immortals going mad and risking offending the Sages to scheme for people and treasures within his Dao field.
If his Dao field were stolen by outsiders, he would lose face.
Qing Ling then sent his primordial spirit to each hall, setting up various restrictions and planning the etiquette of the mountain gate. Without rules, nothing can be accomplished.
Different restrictions were set up in each of the buildings and pavilions at the mountain gate, for different purposes. This was also to lay the foundation and enrich the heritage for the disciples of his lineage in the future.
Qing Ling then refined a ball of innate water essence and a ball of innate fire essence, transforming them into two young boys and girls. The two little attendants joyfully bowed and said, "Thank you, great master, for your enlightenment!"
Hearing this, Qing Ling couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that from now on, everyone in the mountain sect would call him great master.
A Sage's body truly needed solemnity and majesty.
"Get up," Qing Ling said. "You two were born from the transformation of innate water and fire Qi, so you shall be called Hua Ze and Hua Shuo. From now on, you will attend me and also be responsible for taking care of the Luo Sheng flowers in front of the palace."
The two little attendants bowed and said with childish voices, "We respectfully obey the great master's command."
Qing Ling nodded and said, "You two go down first and familiarize yourselves with the mountain gate. I will go into seclusion for some time."
The two attendants agreed and ran out with their short legs.
Qing Ling did not get angry at this. This was how life and vitality were. If everything were rules and etiquette, what kind of carefree immortal would that be?
Qing Ling calmed his mind and began cultivating the Dao of Hunyuan. The spiritual power within his body had begun to transform into Hunyuan power. This was a sublimation similar to spiritual power. Hunyuan power was like the power of laws and order. Once used, everything would be settled, carrying the irresistible characteristic of rules and order, far surpassing the quality of spiritual power.
However, Qing Ling had just achieved Sagehood of Hunyuan, and only ten percent of the spiritual power in his body had been transformed. To stabilize his realm, he needed to achieve at least sixty percent transformation into Hunyuan power.
For someone like Nuwa, who had long achieved Sagehood, she had likely completed the transformation and was even beginning to strengthen her cultivation of Hunyuan power, elevating Hunyuan power to the power of the Great Dao.
Now, the five Sages were likely mostly stable in their realms, but had not yet fully transformed into Hunyuan power.
Qing Ling still had a great opportunity to surpass them. After all, he was the first person to cultivate the Three-Life Hunyuan Dao.
Qing Ling calmed his mind, sensed the power of heaven and earth, the power of wood Dao, integrated it into his body, and converted his spiritual power into Hunyuan power bit by bit.
For those below the Sage realm, they could not even absorb the power of heaven and earth into their bodies, and thus could not achieve the fusion and transformation of the power of heaven and earth, the power of wood Dao, and spiritual power.
All below Sage are ants, indeed not a false saying.
