Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Xuanhuang Qi!
It is neither the primordial energy of heaven and earth, nor the essence of the sun and moon; it is hazy and chaotic, mysterious and wondrous.

Its preciousness is second only to the pure yang treasure that descends from the chaotic universe when a living being ascends to pure yang.

Although Xuanhuang Qi is not as good as Chunyang Qi, it is also a gift from heaven and earth, the essence of one realm transformed from the origin of the world, and its mystery is beyond words.

For ordinary beings to obtain this Xuanhuang Qi, they must first ascend to immortality through the transformation of their essence, energy, and spirit, overcome the Tribulation of Refining Emptiness to attain the Dao Fruit, and completely separate themselves from the mortal realm. Only then will heaven and earth bestow upon them a few strands of this Qi.

Besides, obtaining this Xuanhuang Qi again would be extremely difficult.

One must either guide other realms to integrate into this realm and receive a reward from heaven and earth, or one must save a realm and bring it back to life.

Neither of these methods is something that ordinary people can achieve. In the nearly 1,800 years that Jiang Sheng has lived, apart from the thirteen strands of Xuanhuang Qi he received from the Mountain and River Realm after ascending to the Void Refinement Realm and passing the Void Refinement Immortal Tribulation, the only other Xuanhuang Qi he has obtained is the few strands of Xuanhuang Qi that were bestowed upon him by Heaven and Earth after introducing the Earthly Profound Realm into the Mountain and River Realm.

Besides, even after entering the Three Realms from the Spiritual Realm, Jiang Sheng was still unable to obtain the Xuanhuang Qi.

There are certainly various reasons for this, but the rarity and preciousness of Xuanhuang Qi are evident from this.

Jiang Sheng had always thought that if he wanted to obtain Xuanhuang Qi again, he would have to wait until the Mountain and Sea Realm was introduced into the Three Realms and receive feedback from Heaven and Earth. However, he did not expect that he would obtain a wisp of Xuanhuang Qi in less than a day after entering the Xuanhuang Realm.

Although there was only a wisp of Xuanhuang Qi, it was more precious to Jiang Sheng than ninety percent of his harvest in the Nine Provinces Realm!

Looking at the wisp of primordial yellow energy representing the origin of the world before him, Jiang Sheng could not hide his delight.

Previously in the Nine Provinces Realm, the Eastern Heavenly Daoists focused on conquest and seizing fortune, and did not do anything beneficial to the Nine Provinces Realm. Instead, they sank two continents.

Therefore, Jiang Sheng did not gain much fortune in the Nine Provinces Realm, and the powerful enemies he killed did not leave him with many good things, only some useless pills and resources, or some cultivation techniques and scriptures.

Apart from the Meteor Demon Suppressing Tower left behind by the True Lord Fufeng of the Qiankun Dao Sect, the other magical treasures that Jiang Sheng could directly use were all useless.

As a Fifth Tribulation True Lord, Jingxing Zhenjun possessed numerous rare and precious treasures, and his magic sword was also a divine weapon. Unfortunately, Jiang Sheng was not adept at using it.

As a fifth-level demon of Bibo Pool, the Golden Turtle Demon Lord possessed noble blood and tens of thousands of years of cultivation, but in the end, all he left Jiang Sheng was a tortoise shell.

As for the other True Monarchs and Demon Monarchs who died under Jiang Sheng's sword, there were very few that Jiang Sheng could actually use.

Before heading to the Nine Provinces, these True Lords and Demon Lords had basically exchanged their resources for pills, magical artifacts, or used them to enhance their abilities and improve their cultivation, leaving them with very little. And when they were about to die, they wished they could use all the pills and magical artifacts they had, or even recklessly self-destruct, because they were unwilling to leave their own resources and magical artifacts to aid the enemy.

Recalling the empty storage bags and Purple Mansions of the True Lords and Demon Lords in the Nine Provinces Realm, Jiang Sheng felt utterly helpless.

This Xuanhuang Realm is clearly much wealthier than the Nine Provinces Realm!

Not to mention that although the Yin-Yang Orthodox Sect was destroyed, its vast resources still remain in the Xuanhuang Realm. Just the wisp of Xuanhuang Qi fed back to Jiang Sheng by the Taiyin Star alone makes Jiang Sheng's trip to the Xuanhuang Realm a complete success!

Carefully absorbing the wisp of primordial energy before him, Jiang Sheng recalled the fortune and merit that had just been bestowed upon him, and the exhilarating feeling of being under the overwhelming power of heaven and earth, his actions invincible, during his battle with the mountain demon. A glint flashed in Jiang Sheng's eyes:
"Now, in this Xuanhuang Realm, I can truly be called the Son of the World!"

"Ouch!"

A Heavenly Demon at the Integration Realm let out a mournful howl, begging for mercy.

A blue magic sword swirled with a vast, clear wind, carrying the intent of annihilation, leaving countless wounds on its body.

These wounds were difficult for the Heavenly Demon to heal in a short time, and the thousands of sword energies within its body were extinguishing its life force, making the Heavenly Demon feel as if ten thousand swords were piercing its heart and tearing its soul apart, and its wails became more and more miserable.

Tap tap tap.
As footsteps approached, a Taoist priest in a blue crown and black robe stood before the mighty demon, sword in hand.

This giant demon has a human head and a worm body, with thousands of pairs of appendages, and its back is covered with carapace and bone spurs, making it both ferocious and disgusting.

This demon is called the Insect Demon, and it is one of the types of insect demons that loves to burrow into the earth's veins to devour spiritual veins and erode the world's origin.

The reason Mo Xuan placed this Nascent Soul stage insect on the Taiyin Star was to allow it to burrow into the Taiyin Star, disrupt its stability, and devour its essence.

However, whether it was because the Taiyin Ice, which had existed for tens of thousands of years, was too hard, or for some other reason, the worm was unable to burrow into the interior of the Taiyin Star. It could only wriggle on the surface of the Taiyin Star, gradually devouring the immortal energy within and polluting the primordial power of the Taiyin Star.

However, before this worm could enjoy itself on the moon for thirty years, Jiang Sheng arrived.

Jiang Sheng glanced at the disgusting and ferocious insect demon with disgust, and with a thought, the Zhuxian Sword, which had been swirling and twirling in the air, immediately transformed into a streak of azure light and plunged into the insect demon's head, directly crushing its skull and obliterating its consciousness.

Immediately, countless sword energies erupted, tearing the massive demon, now a fusion of ten thousand miles, into countless fragments of flesh and blood.

"The fifty-seventh."

Jiang Sheng spoke softly, ignoring the blood and flesh of the demons falling from the sky, and continued forward.

Whenever chunks of demon flesh and blood were about to fall on Jiang Sheng, the Four Symbols Sword Qi would be unleashed, slashing out and obliterating them. On the vast Taiyin Star, Jiang Sheng was alone, as if walking through billions of miles of glaciers, with no human presence around him, only the swirling storms of cold air and the endless, frigid glacier path.

Looking behind Jiang Sheng, the road was littered with the corpses of demons.

Or perhaps a worm-like demon with a human head and worm body covered in bone spurs, or a tree demon with a headless and legless form resembling a withered tree, or a monster with a twisted combination of human and demonic forms, or an otherworldly demon without any physical form and in a state of ethereal chaos.
These demons blocking Jiang Sheng's path were now completely devoid of life, their remains scattered and broken into fragments. They were gradually frozen, shattered, and annihilated by the Taiyin cold energy of the Taiyin star, and then fed back into the heavens and earth.

Jiang Sheng, on the other hand, did not feel tired at all. On this lonely and ethereal Taiyin star, surrounded by demons, Jiang Sheng felt a sense of comfort and peace.

"If we could wipe out all the celestial demons on this Taiyin Star, perhaps settling down and cultivating here wouldn't be a bad idea?"

A thought suddenly popped into Jiang Sheng's mind, and in the next instant, a blue lotus bloomed in his clear Dao heart, and the illusory image of the Qingping Sword slashed across, cutting off the thought!

Shaking his head, Jiang Sheng's eyes regained their clarity: "The will of heaven and earth in the Xuanhuang Realm really values ​​me, and actually wants to keep me in the Xuanhuang Realm."

The sudden thought just now was not Jiang Sheng's own intention, but rather a thought imposed on him by the will of the Xuanhuang Realm.

As Jiang Sheng slays more and more demons, the will of the Xuanhuang Realm values ​​him more and more, and the fortune bestowed upon him becomes increasingly heavy. Under these circumstances, the will of the Xuanhuang Realm will naturally continue to deepen its influence on Jiang Sheng.

This deepening is intangible and intangible, because Jiang Sheng is surrounded by the fortune of the Xuanhuang Realm and the merits of the Xuanhuang Realm. Therefore, the influence of the Xuanhuang Realm on Jiang Sheng can be described as omnipresent.

The will of heaven and earth in the Xuanhuang Realm is unwilling to miss out on a promising talent like Jiang Sheng.

Although Jiang Sheng is not a being from the Xuanhuang Realm, the Xuanhuang Realm has no other choice now. Rather than spending a long time cultivating a new chosen one from scratch, it would be much faster to snatch one from another world.
Jiang Sheng only vaguely guessed that he was valued by the Xuanhuang Realm, but he did not know that the will of heaven and earth of the Xuanhuang Realm had already conceived the idea of ​​keeping him in the Xuanhuang Realm.

Dispelling the distracting thoughts in his mind, Jiang Sheng looked ahead and saw a colossal demon, a hundred thousand miles in size, with layers of fat and flesh piled up like a mountain, crowding between the towering Taiyin Glacier, greedily devouring the immortal spiritual energy and Taiyin power within the glacier.

Looking at the fat and robust appearance of the Great Demon, and sensing the unrestrained aura of the Fifth Tribulation that the Great Demon was unleashing, Jiang Sheng's lips curled up slightly: "Another Fifth Tribulation Great Demon."

"If I were not to accept this Xuanhuang Qi that has been delivered to my door, it would be a waste of heaven's bounty."

As he spoke, Jiang Sheng leaped into the air, transforming into a blue rainbow and speeding away.

At this moment, between the Taiyin Glacier, which stretches for tens of thousands of miles and spans millions of miles from east to west, a gigantic, obese demon, about 100,000 miles in size, is lying on the glacier formed from tens of thousands of years of cold air, constantly gnawing at it.

As the great demon devoured the ice, the immortal energy and Yin power nurtured by this Taiyin Glacier were also continuously consumed by it.

Looking out, in the past thirty years, the Taiyin Glacier, which is a million miles long, has been eroded by more than 300,000 miles of it. This area of ​​more than 300,000 miles has been ravaged by the great demon, with foul air growing everywhere and immortal energy unable to be nurtured. It can be said that this Taiyin Glacier of more than 300,000 miles has been polluted by demonic energy. To restore it, it is necessary to cleanse the demonic energy and reorganize the Taiyin cold veins within it.

But the Great Demon doesn't care about any of that; all it cares about is having a good time eating.

However, just as the Great Demon was continuously devouring the Yin energy in the glacier, a clear and alluring aura suddenly wafted over, causing the Great Demon to raise its head.

As the Great Demon raised its head, which was covered in pustules, and looked around with its eight eyes, it finally spotted Jiang Sheng, who was suspended in mid-air.

The eight little eyes narrowed, and the Great Demon immediately became excited: "It's a delicious fairy!"

Roaring, the great demon raised its four claws and reached for Jiang Sheng, trying to grab him and stuff him into its mouth.

Looking at the bloated and fat demon in front of him, Jiang Sheng frowned slightly. He made a series of hand seals with his left hand, and in an instant, hundreds of thunderclouds gathered above the Taiyin Glacier. Streams of Five Elements Divine Thunder crashed down, causing the demon to wail in agony.

Before it could react, the spiritual energy of wind, thunder, water, and fire that should have been suppressed and frozen by the Taiyin cold energy on the Taiyin star suddenly became active, with green winds howling, purple lightning surging, red flames raging, and black water surging.

The endless flow of wind, thunder, water, and fire made the great demon dizzy. Then, the swords hummed and sang, and the magnificent power of the final calamity and destiny fell. Only then did the great demon realize that four inverted magic swords had appeared around him.

"I don't know if your brain was damaged by the coldness of the Yin energy, or if eating too much ice made you stupid."

"Forget it, why bother explaining so much to you?"

"The Immortal Killing Sword Formation, rise!"

Jiang Sheng made a hand seal, and with his sword fingers urging forth, the four swords of annihilation and annihilation hummed, and streams of annihilation sword energy and annihilation sword light crisscrossed, enveloping the great demon within.

As the great demon let out a deafening wail and roar, the million-mile-long glacier began to tremble incessantly.

The violent, brute force shook the glacier, impacting the ice beneath its feet. Waves of surging power clashed with sharp sword energy, causing the entire glacier to crack and nearly collapse.

With a deafening tremor, a dazzling sword light swept across the universe, and Jiang Sheng severed the head of the great demon with a single sword strike.

Jiang Sheng did not stop and continued forward.

Beneath the glacier, deep within the ice layer stretching for countless miles, a faint light seemed to flicker. (End of Chapter)
