Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

"call"

"call"

Rapid, heavy breathing continued to be heard.

Even though Jiang Huan and his companions kept changing routes and directions, the number of withered tree demons from all directions increased, and countless bone claws and demons surrounded them, gradually plunging them into a desperate situation.

Wang Yuan and Li Shu had already reached their limit; both of them were now completely exhausted and looked utterly drained.

Listening to Wang Yuan and Li Shu's heavy breathing, Jiang Huan felt as if she had returned to the first year of the Heavenly Shattering, when she and her younger brother were huddled in the cellar, helplessly listening to the demons devouring their parents!
At that moment, just as now, Jiang Huan despairingly discovered that he was still that powerless peasant, unable to save his parents, protect his younger brother, or even his own brothers in life and death.

Unbeknownst to him, despair also appeared on Jiang Huan's face. The pair of eyes in the withered bone forest stared at this scene and became more and more excited: with a few more souls of despair, it would have a chance to advance!

It could sense that the human who appeared to be only at the Purple Mansion Realm possessed extraordinary power. As long as it devoured his soul, it could grow into the Chaotic Skull True Demon!
At that time, the entire West Sea City will be its food supply!
However, at this moment, it must endure and quietly wait for Jiang Huan's most desperate moment.

At that time, Jiang Huan's soul was at its most delicious.

Surrounded by demons and amidst the chaotic dance of withered bones, Jiang Huan kept urging the jade slip, hoping it would find him a glimmer of hope. But each time he tried, it was a death sentence!

Clearly, even the immortal swordsman believed that he was not going to survive.

But the more this happened, the more Jiang Huan refused to accept her fate!
Even if I can't survive, I must ensure that my two brothers and sisters, who have shared life and death with me, live on!
Looking at Wang Yuan and Li Shu beside her, Jiang Huan exhaled a deep breath: "Wang Yuan, Li Shu, I'll rush over and attract the attention of these evil creatures. You two find a chance to escape!"

Li Shu smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Huan, you've protected us so many times, now it's my turn to protect you."

As she spoke, Li Shu suddenly pushed Jiang Huan back and rushed towards the ferocious evil creature in front of her with an explosive talisman in her hand, clearly intending to self-destruct to attract the evil creature's attention.

"Li Shu!"

Jiang Huan's eyes were bloodshot, but she was powerless to stop her and could only watch helplessly as Li Shu rushed into the evil creature.

Just then, Jiang Huan seemed to hear a faint, ethereal voice, a voice that seemed both right beside her ear and yet also far away in the heavens.

"Senior Brother Lingyuan, that female cultivator's name is also Shu. Does that mean we are destined to be together?"

Jiang Huan looked up at the sky in a daze, and saw four stars shining with clear light. For a moment, Jiang Huan couldn't help but wonder: how long has it been since I've seen such clear starlight?
It seems that since the first year of the Heavenly Shattering, all the stars have decayed and disappeared, and the stars in the sky have dimmed and vanished, with no more light falling on the earth.

When did these bright stars appear?

Without a sound, the jade slip in Jiang Huan's sleeve activated on its own, revealing two extremely simple words: Great Fortune!

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Huan saw a beam of clear light descend from the sky.

At the same time, the entire Forest of Dead Bones went berserk!

The pair of eyes in the withered bone forest stared in horror at the brilliant stars in the sky. Sensing an immense crisis, it disregarded Jiang Huan and desperately tried to block the impending danger.

The entire forest of withered bones surged like waves, and endless skeletons coalesced into a hideous bone demon that was ten thousand feet tall, with four pairs of arms and six legs.

This scene was not only seen by Jiang Huan and his two companions, but also by the cultivators in Xihai City!
None of the seven major families in Xihai City knew why the once peaceful Bone Forest had suddenly undergone such a drastic change. Looking at the towering Bone Demon and sensing the terrifying power it unleashed, the seven Nascent Soul cultivators were all horrified.

On the city wall of Xihai City, Zhang Hao, a Nascent Soul cultivator, stared palely at the enormous bone demon that resembled a demon god. A bone demon tens of thousands of feet tall—could only a Dharma Aspect True Person from Xishan City handle this?!
With such a demon appearing, does Xihai City even have a chance to survive?!
At this moment, the city of Xihai was in a state of panic, and the seven major families were unable to pay attention to the chaos in the city. All the cultivators were mobilized to be on guard against the suddenly manifested ten-thousand-foot-tall bone demon.

Just as the people of Xihai City were in a state of panic, and the seven Nascent Soul cultivators were filled with doubt and uncertainty, a beam of clear light fell from the sky.

Faced with this faint, ethereal light, no more than a hundred feet in size and seemingly floating like clouds, the bone demon, which exuded a terrifying aura and was ten thousand feet tall, let out a fierce but cowardly howl and then fled for its life!
However, before the Bone Demon could escape, Qinghui descended.

In an instant, the clear light spread for tens of thousands of miles, and the entire forest of withered bones vanished in an instant, while the ten-thousand-foot-tall bone demon also collapsed into bone dust all over the sky.

Jiang Huan stared in astonishment at the suddenly collapsing, ten-thousand-foot-tall bone demon. Looking around, she saw that all the tree demon bones had vanished in the clear light.

Just as Jiang Huan was at a loss, a beautiful and ethereal figure emerged from the void and appeared in front of her.

This figure was absolutely stunning, with a face like a celestial being, eyes like the bright moon, wearing a green pearl hairpin and gold pendants, dressed in a green robe with a green belt and a red gauze skirt, surrounded by a clear radiance and dazzling light. She was truly a celestial fairy, beautiful beyond compare.

What startled Jiang Huan the most was the halo of light surrounding the fairy's head, emanating an inexplicable aura, like a supreme mystical technique, like a divine mark or seal, just like the legendary Dharma Image True Man of Xishan City.

Could it be that this fairy before us is also a Dharma Aspect True Person?!

Was it this fairy who slew that ten-thousand-foot-tall demon?!
Jiang Huan was unaware that this was not the Dharma Aspect Mystic Light condensed by the Dharma Aspect True Person, but rather the light of the Dao Fruit after ascension, which all the true cultivators of the myriad realms above the Dharma Aspect had been striving for.

This is the Dao Wheel that only the three realm immortals who have truly embarked on the Great Dao and condensed the Dao Fruit possess.

Just as Jiang Huan was filled with doubt and surprise, the fairy in front of him suddenly looked him up and down and then said, "Senior Brother Lingyuan, is this the chosen one you saw?!"

Senior brother?!
Lingyuan?!
Jiang Huan looked around suspiciously, but couldn't see anyone at all. Then she heard a clear and gentle voice say, "You are destined to be with this person, so bring them up."

Immediately afterward, Jiang Huan felt himself suddenly rise into the air, heading straight for the heavens. It is often said that immortals ascend to the heavens, soaring ninety thousand miles, but he no longer knew how many tens of thousands of miles he was away from the mortal world.

High above the vast sky, breaking through the surging sea of ​​clouds, shattering the mighty gale, and dispelling the raging thunder and fire, Jiang Huan didn't know how many tens of thousands of miles he was from the ground, but he was certain that the Dharma Aspect True Person in Xishan City could not possibly reach this place.

Because when Jiang Huan looked up, she could see a sky full of stars.

They are not the tiny stars that one looks up at in the sky, but enormous, boundless, silent giant stars that stretch across the heavens.

At this moment, Jiang Huan realized: This is the Star Sea.

A magnificent magic ship, stretching for thousands of miles, sailed through this desolate sea of ​​stars. Jiang Huan looked up and saw that the people coming and going on this ornate magic ship, adorned with carved beams and painted rafters and engraved with various spiritual and Daoist symbols, were all legendary beings.

There was an immortal wearing a bright jade crown and a white jade Taoist robe, with a clear Taoist wheel behind his head; a fairy wearing a blue-purple thunder crown and a cloud-like robe, with lightning marks flashing between her brows, exuding a heroic and dashing air; and a great demon with a red crown and brocade robe, clearly bearing the aura of a great demon, and a venerable one wearing a kasaya and holding Buddhist beads.
Not to mention Wang Yuan and Li Shu, even Jiang Huan felt as if she were dreaming when she saw it.

The three of them were actually rescued, and by immortals from other worlds!

Compared to the helplessness of Jiang Huan and the other two, Ling Qiu, who brought them up, was overjoyed. In fact, she was the first person in the Xuanhuang Realm to subdue demons. After destroying that forest of withered bones and the bone demon, Ling Qiu could clearly sense that something in the dark had fallen on her, increasing her luck and merits a little.

Moreover, she had brought up the chosen one of this world. Ling Qiu had a feeling that if she carefully taught this Jiang Huan, she would definitely gain a lot!
After settling Jiang Huan and the other two, Ling Qiu shared her insights with everyone, and all the disciples nodded in agreement.

"Everyone, you have all seen the situation in the Xuanhuang Realm."

"In the present Xuanhuang Realm, the heavenly demons are attacking, the demons are causing havoc, and there are also the corrupted demonic cultivators and evil paths. It can be said that the world is in turmoil."

"If we can understand this world, even if we can only understand part of it, it will be an immense merit and good fortune."

Xuan Yi's words were met with nods of agreement from everyone.

Immediately, Xuan Yi glanced at Ming Xian, Xu Yuanzi, and the others, then looked at Jiang Sheng: "Ling Yuan, you proposed the plan. Should we act together or split up?"

Jiang Sheng laughed and said, "Let's split up and act separately. There's no point in crowding together. If we encounter anything we can't handle, we can deal with it together."

Jiang Sheng's answer clearly aligned with the thoughts of Xuan Yi, Ming Xian, and Xu Yuanzi, so everyone dispersed. Not to mention Shao Bai Mingjun and Si Hai Zhenjun, even Guang Wen and Guang Hui decided to act alone, seeking a place of calamity to establish their own Pure Land of Glazed Glass.

The Thousand-Mile Dharma Boat continues to sail through the sea of ​​stars, but the number of people on board is dwindling.

After leaving the magic ship, Xuan Yi, along with Xuan Xin, Xuan Ji, and Xuan Sang, the Xuan generation of the Qinghua Dao Sect, headed straight for the far east.

On the way, Xuan Yi suddenly said, "This time, we all owe Ling Yuan a favor."

Before Xuanji and Xuansang could react, Xuanxin had already understood what his senior brother meant. He then explained to his junior brothers, "The Nine Provinces Realm has been destroyed by the ancestors. With our senior uncles and elder brothers around, no matter how hard we juniors try, we won't gain anything."

“But the Xuanhuang Realm is different. As you have seen, the starry seas are desolate and the mountains and rivers are barren. It is obvious that the world’s origin has been plundered and too much of the primordial energy of heaven and earth has been dissipated.”

"In this vast world, although there are many demons, it is not necessarily a bad thing for us."

"The will of heaven and earth in the Xuanhuang Realm is powerless to resist the invasion of demons. Our arrival is a good thing for the will of heaven and earth. Therefore, we will gain good fortune and merit by slaying demons and eliminating evil. At the same time, the resources of this great world are also open to us."

"The Yin-Yang Orthodox Sect has been destroyed, but its secret realm and ruins still exist. We can obtain a lot of resources simply by going in."

"Lingyuan took the initiative to ask us to come to the Xuanhuang Realm to cleanse the demons, in order to win us fortune, merit, resources and opportunities. Moreover, Lingyuan suggested that each family separate, just to make things easier for us. So, Senior Brother said that we all owe Lingyuan a favor."

Xuanji and Xuansang also realized what was happening, but before they could think any further, Xuanyi said, "That's not all."

"Lingyuan sent us to the Xuanhuang Realm to give us a better chance of survival."

"With all the great powers colliding with the Nine Provinces Realm, what help can you and I offer?"

"Instead of just watching from there, it's better to come to the Xuanhuang Realm. At least it's safer there, and we won't become a hindrance to our senior uncles and elder brothers."

Xuanxin suddenly realized: "No wonder they sent us here with some disciples. I thought they wanted to open up a separate courtyard and set up a Daoist temple in this Xuanhuang Realm, to take over a share of my Qinghua Dao Sect's foundation in advance."

Unexpectedly, Xuan Yi laughed and said, "If it weren't for this, why did Ling Yuan suggest that each family act separately?"

"Don't think that Lingyuan is aloof and cold, and only knows how to refine magic. In fact, he knows everything, but he's just too lazy to show it."

"Don't forget, that person is the leader of our generation's Xuanmen."

Xuanxin also smiled and said, "So that's why Senior Brother, Senior Brother Mingxian, Senior Brother Xuyuanzi and the others didn't mention who the chosen one of destiny would be?"

Xuan nodded: "The one who takes the lead should get the biggest share. If we don't even follow this rule, how can we have the face to eat meat and drink soup with them?"

"Moreover, I always feel that there is something hidden in this Xuanhuang Realm."

Xuan Yi gazed at the silent sea of ​​stars around him, his eyes sparkling like bright stars. (End of Chapter)
