Chapter 302 A Change in Fortune, The Divine Power of the Moon Emperor
Golden auspicious clouds, like a canopy, stretched across the sky above Huangshan Mountain, and could be faintly seen throughout the vast land.

Yu Que stood on the altar, his eyes slightly closed, sensing the mysterious sensations around him.

Suddenly, a thought struck him, and the inner world of immortals hidden within his body was no longer concealed. Instead, it suddenly leaped out and appeared on Mount Huang.

At this moment, with the favor of Heaven, Yu Que realized that he and the destiny of the Huangshan Daoist lineage were now bound together.

Although this would make him and Huangshan even more inseparable and entangled in a deeper karmic bond, it also meant that Huangshan would be even more friendly to him.

From this day forward, if the Palace Master of Huangshan and the others were to take action against him, they would be harming the fortune of their sect.

With this confidence, coupled with a mysterious intuition and Yu Que's belief that he now possessed some magical power, he decided to reveal his inner world.

After making the decision hastily, Yu Que continued to immerse himself in the blessing of fate, his mind bursting with thoughts and a flurry of inspirations, which made him even more engrossed in it.

Unbeknownst to him, the sudden appearance of the inner world immediately attracted the attention of the entire Huangshan Dao Palace, and the resulting reaction was far greater than he had anticipated.

"What is this, a mirage?"

"Impossible. Today is a grand ceremony for my Huangshan Dao Palace. How could an illusion cause trouble? Could it be that a secret realm within the palace has been sensed by the energy and has spontaneously emerged?"

Tens of thousands of Huangshan disciples were discussing among themselves, not understanding why, while some did not take it seriously.

However, the elders of Huangshan Taoist Palace, especially those who were quite old and experienced, all suddenly stood up from their seats. Those who were already standing took several steps forward, their faces filled with extreme shock.

The Palace Master of Huangshan, the Peak Master of Tiandu, and the Elder of Guangming Peak were no exception; in fact, the astonishment on their faces was even more remarkable than that of the other elders.

"Okay, okay!"

The Heavenly Capital Peak Master excitedly uttered three "good"s.

The man atop Bright Summit had a golden glow on his face, his eyes shining as he stared intently at the sky above Mount Huang, offering his affirmative assessment:

"This object is not from any secret realm within the palace, and the Huangshan Grand Formation is stable, the earth's energy is stable, and the dragon's energy is stable, so it has not been leaked."

It belongs to the Lord of the Palace of Justice; the two are in harmony, exactly like the inner and outer worlds described in the book!

These words further agitated the already excited elders around them, who began to mutter and discuss among themselves.
"Good heavens, this kid not only forged a Nascent Soul Dao Weapon, but also created an inner world!?"

"Today, a true dragon has been born into the Huangshan Taoist lineage!"

"No wonder the Palace Master granted him the right to establish his own residence... I knew it, merely refining a Nascent Soul Dao Weapon wasn't enough..."

The elders' excitement gradually brought the Huangshan disciples around them back to their senses, making them realize that they might have witnessed something extraordinary today.

A buzzing sound filled the vast Tian Du Peak, and it was about to erupt in a clamor in an instant.

At this moment, the Heavenly Capital Peak Master's sudden shout rang clearly in everyone's ears:

"Silence! Anyone who acts rashly or disrespectfully will be immediately expelled from the mountain gate. Anyone who makes any unusual movements or leaves their place will be executed first and reported later, regardless of rank or position."

Those above the highest level, beginning with myself, will be cut off without mercy!

Such murderous words instantly cooled down the turbulent Tian Du Peak, making it so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The more than 10,000 disciples of Huangshan were all tense and stood upright in place, not daring to whisper to each other or even transmit their divine senses to one another.

The elders exchanged glances, then wisely returned to their original positions, not daring to speak again, only exchanging whispers between each other using their divine sense.

The disciples and elders of Huangshan were so sensible, and those few outsiders who came to observe the ceremony were even more nervous.

Those who knew about the "inner world" especially looked worried, fearing that Huangshan's group would be shameless and kill them all on the spot.

Fortunately, after the Heavenly Capital Peak Master suppressed the entire scene, he only glanced at these friends outside the palace and then ignored them.

However, the divine senses of the other elders continued to linger around the group of people outside the palace, tightly surrounding them. Some even stepped forward to comfort them and then remained, blocking their way.

After tidying up, the Peak Master of Tiandu bowed to the Palace Master of Huangshan and transmitted his voice:

"Thank you, Palace Master, for preserving such a person of great fortune for my Huangshan."

Not only was the Peak Master of Tiandu sending congratulatory messages and praising the Palace Master of Huangshan, but there were also congratulatory and flattering voices from elders such as the Master of Guangming Peak.

Among them, the three supreme elders of the Snake Family, the Stone Family, and the Examination Peak were the most excited and the most obsequious:
"Thank you for saving my life, Palace Master!"

"Thank you for your kindness in promoting us, Palace Master. It is truly our good fortune to serve you, Palace Master of Justice!"

These three old guys were originally only somewhat afraid of Yu Que, but they were still resentful in their hearts. However, due to the constraints and the threat of the Yuan Shen Dao Soldier, they could only accept their fate.

Now that Yu Que has revealed his inner world, these three old guys wish they could crawl forward on their knees on the spot and offer their loyalty to Yu Que.

For a time, the three old men were filled with regret, but also with delusion, hoping that Yu Que would really take them in as his henchmen and help them ascend to immortality together.

Despite the praise from those around him, the Palace Master of Huangshan remained staring straight at the sky.

To outsiders, she appeared to be constantly watching Yu Que's inner world, scrutinizing it carefully, and guarding against anyone daring to intrude upon it.

In reality, the Palace Master of Huangshan was also filled with mixed feelings and was quite taken aback.

She thought to herself, "Good lad! This guy not only forged a primordial spirit weapon, but also opened up an inner world."

It seems the rumors that he came from a sacred mountain in the past were not false. This young man most likely gained great benefits from that sacred mountain…

After much thought, the Palace Master of Huangshan Palace finally uttered a heavy sigh:
"The Inner Heaven and Earth is the seed of the Celestial Immortal Dao. The Central Plains Dao Secret Realm has finally produced another one."

After slowly regaining her senses, she calmly transmitted her voice to those around her:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a momentous event that will greatly benefit our Huangshan region. Please observe the ceremony with reverence."

Many elders and Huangshan disciples heard her telepathic message and felt that the Palace Master was indeed worthy of the title. Her ability to remain calm and composed was truly remarkable, unlike the others who were all noisy and boisterous.

"Yes!" "We will obey the Palace Master's decree." Everyone bowed and transmitted their thoughts.

Apart from Huangshan Taoist Temple.

In various Taoist palaces throughout the Central Plains, the half-step Nascent Soul immortals who had the hope of becoming immortals were all moved and involuntarily turned their gazes toward the Huangshan Taoist Palace.

However, they only noticed some clues from the changes in the fortunes of the Central Plains, and were not clear about what exactly happened in the Huangshan Taoist Palace:
"Could it be that someone from the Huangshan Taoist Palace has become an immortal?" Many old immortals thought with envy.

Meanwhile, on Zhenjun Island overseas.

The two overseas immortals who were playing chess were also startled and suddenly looked up at the Central Plains. "Why... why has the fortune of the Central Plains increased!"

An extremely melancholy feeling arose in the hearts of the two True Immortals, as if they had lost some treasure.

However, after much thought and reviewing all matters concerning the Central Plains, the two True Immortals still couldn't recall what they had overlooked.

What surprised them even more was that when they looked up at the gathering immortal energy above True Lord Island, they discovered that their own immortal energy had not declined despite the increase in energy in the Central Plains.

On the contrary, while the fortune of the Central Plains increased, the fortune of the immortals overseas also increased.

"What exactly has been created that could increase the fortunes both domestically and internationally?"

The two racked their brains, but they just couldn't figure out what treasure in the world could have such an effect.

It should be noted that even though the immortal mountain of the past completely collapsed and merged into the Dao Secret Realm, their respective fortunes did not change.

Suddenly, the two True Immortals' thoughts drifted, and they realized something:
"The fortunes of both the domestic and international realms have increased... Could it be that the fortunes of the entire Daoist Mystic Realm have increased!?"

As soon as the thought arose, they communicated telepathically and quickly made a decision in their hearts.

On the day.

All the disciples of the ten major sects who were still cultivating on True Monarch Island were awakened and given orders to immediately set off for the Central Plains.

Ling Yunzi was one of them. He looked bewildered, completely unaware of why the immortals had suddenly changed their minds and were willing to send them all to the Central Plains.

........................

The various reactions and changes from the outside world have nothing to do with Yu Que, the person involved, for the time being.

He was immersed in that state of contemplation of heaven and earth for a full quarter of an hour.

For the past fifteen minutes, he had been reviewing his cultivation progress, stabilizing his internal energy, and identifying and addressing any shortcomings.

For the next quarter of an hour, he was tending to his inner world, making the already nascent Immortal Garden even more prosperous and vibrant with the blessing of fortune.

After all this, although the size of his fairy garden remained unchanged, its inner essence was completely different.

The spiritual energy within the earth condensed, and the rudiments of spiritual veins appeared. Furthermore, the entire Immortal Garden showed a tendency to materialize from the ethereal, manifesting itself in the outside world and radiating power.

As for the next quarter of an hour, Yu Que was innovating and, with the help of the Central Plains' fortune, absorbing and integrating all the cultivation techniques he had practiced—the Tai Sui inheritance, the Yama King inheritance, the Taiyin Sword Technique, and so on—to deduce his own path of refining Qi and the next step of the primordial spirit path.

In this short period of time, he has consumed a lot of his luck, after all, his current path is quite different from that of immortals and overseas cultivators, and it involves all sorts of inexplicable key points.

Fortunately, the entire Huangshan Taoist Palace, with the approval of the three main peak masters, is doing its utmost to provide him with the energy to consume.

In this way, although it is only the fortune of one palace, it is enough for him to deduce and comprehend.

Three-quarters of an hour passed.

Yu Que slowly opened his eyes.

His face was serene, his features radiant, and his spirits high. He looked around as if sensing something, and nodded slightly to the Palace Master of Huangshan and the others.

Then he murmured:
"Returning from overseas, I pay homage to the mountain gate; I ascend to heaven to refine my true essence."

Fellow Daoists, I'll be right back!

As soon as he finished speaking, a thunderous sound exploded on Tiandu Peak.

Many people's eyelids twitched, and when they opened their eyes again, Yu Que's figure had already disappeared from the altar and was rushing straight towards the golden auspicious clouds in the sky.

Its body is like a swimming dragon, or like purple lightning, so graceful and elegant.

To everyone's surprise, the Palace Master of Huangshan and the others hesitated on the surface. They all subconsciously stepped forward, wanting to follow and protect Yu Que, so that nothing might go wrong during Yu Que's refining of qi.

However, they quickly thought of the primordial spirit weapon in Yu Que's hands.

With his primordial spirit weapon by his side, Yu Que will certainly be unharmed in his cultivation. On the contrary, if they rashly chase after him, they might interfere with Yu Que, or even violate his taboos, which could easily lead to more harm than good.

So the Palace Master of Huangshan and the others exchanged glances, suppressing their thoughts, and spoke to the disciples and elders around them:

"quiet!"

"Stay put and wait for the Lord of Justice to return."

Whoosh!

Yu Que charged straight ahead, and in a short while, the massive mountain range of Huangshan Daogong shrank in his eyes. At a glance, it looked like a finely crafted noodle dumpling, both majestic and delicate, with layers of greenery spreading out like a green silk robe.

After a few more breaths, he leaped into the gale layer.

Just like in the Gale Layer, Yu Que's face showed joy.

Just as he had observed when he ascended to heaven, the tops of the various Dao Palaces in the Central Plains were different from other places. Like in ancient times, they were layered upon layered, with dense and diverse winds.

With just a sweep of his divine sense, Yu Que spotted Xuanming Dongkong Gang, Douzhuan Xingyi Gang, and other types of Gang Qi all around him. These Gang Qi were already of superior quality.

But in Yu Que's eyes, they could only be considered not bad.

Yu Que continued to rise, and when he reached the deepest part of the Gale Layer, he saw the highest-grade True Qi such as the Great Sun Burning Heaven Gale and the Eternal Azure Sky Gale, and his eyes showed satisfaction.

However, he did not pick out a single wisp of the qi he saw. Instead, he immediately waved his sleeves to disperse it all, and then used the qi that surrounded him to call upon the qi he needed.

Soon, a soft, jade-like aura appeared, named "Guanghan Ice Soul Aura".

A burst of golden-purple energy, shaped like a dragon, flew in; its name was "Commissioned by the Heavenly Gang".

Another wave of black and red, menacing aura rushed in, named "Tai Sui Ying Huo Gang", also known as "Long She Qi Lu Gang".

These three types of qi are all classified as true qi, renowned and difficult for ordinary immortals to cultivate; they are extremely likely to perish and their souls rot within them.

Now, Yu Que is not trying to choose one of them, but to fuse the three together and transform them into a unique piece of his own.

Its name is—Guanghan Tai Sui Tianzi Gang!
