Cultivation begins with separation.

Chapter 417 Tianzhu
Yi Ling said to wait a while, but Dongfang Hong waited for three years. Just when she was getting impatient.

The nameless Buddha statue shone brightly, and a huge golden halo appeared behind it. Within the halo, countless gears of different sizes were turning, and the gears were covered with bright patterns.

As the gears turned, Dongfanghong felt that time around him seemed to speed up.

It's no surprise that the nameless being possesses time-related abilities.

The cultivation method practiced by the nameless individual combines the characteristics of the past, present, and future.

Both Number One, who cultivates the "Present Sutra," and Number Two, who cultivates the "Future Sutra," possess some time-related abilities, so it's only natural that Nameless also possesses time-related abilities.

However, even if the nameless one's supernatural power could accelerate time, it was still far inferior to Mu Mu's supernatural power.

Mu Mu's supernatural power can directly distort and eliminate the time spent in the teleportation process, not only achieving the effect of instant teleportation, but also ignoring the dangers of the teleportation process to a certain extent.

Just then, several figures quickly appeared within the halo of light.

As a figure riding a blue ox emerged from the halo, two more figures followed.

Dongfang Hong frowned and looked at one of the people who appeared behind him.

"Ding Yunxian?"

Why did Yi Ling bring this person here?

Although Ding Yunxian was Yi Ling's teacher, the Yi family was not the same as before, and there was no need for them to deliberately befriend a Golden Core cultivator.

In Dongfang Hong's eyes, Ding Yunxian might be stronger than many Golden Core cultivators in the Immortal Kingdom, but no matter how strong she is, she is still not as good as a Nascent Soul cultivator.

True dragons, even stronger than the Nascent Soul stage cultivators, have become the guardian beasts of the Qingzhou Immortal Kingdom.

The guardian beast of the Qingzhou Immortal Kingdom is roughly equivalent to the guardian beast of the Yi family.

With the True Dragon protecting the Yi family, Dongfang Hong naturally looked down on Ding Yunxian, a Golden Core cultivator.

"As expected of the Spirit Realm, which has been transformed by the True Dragon Clan over countless years, it is no wonder that it is suitable for establishing an Immortal Kingdom."

Before Yi Ling could say anything, Ding Yunxian sighed:
"For ten thousand years, the Immortal Kingdom has not found a suitable spiritual realm for establishing an Immortal Kingdom, apart from the Heavenly Capital Spirit Realm. I never expected that your Yi family would find one first."

Dongfang Hong listened to Ding Yunxian's words without any doubt. Having entered the Inquiry Corridor many times, her knowledge far surpassed what she had gained before.

To establish a celestial kingdom, the most suitable spiritual realm is, in part, a spiritual realm that is friendly to mortals.

The current Immortal Cultivation Kingdom is different from the usual ancient Immortal Cultivation Kingdoms. As far as Dongfang Hong knows, the foundation of the current Immortal Cultivation Kingdom is mortals, not cultivators.

For the current cultivation kingdom, the number of mortals is more important than the number of cultivators.

Of course, Dongfang Hong is not a Celestial Emperor and cannot access the most core knowledge of the Celestial Kingdom. He is not clear about the connection between mortals and the current cultivators of the Celestial Kingdom. He only knows that the more friendly the spirit realm is to mortals, the more suitable it is to establish a Celestial Kingdom.

However, some spirit realms, even after millions of years of transformation, cannot create an environment that can sustain the bloodline of the human race in the immortal kingdom.

Ding Yunxian turned her gaze to Dongfang Hong, as if sensing Dongfang Hong's displeasure at her arrival, and said:

"Fellow Daoist Dongfang has received the Great Dao Nascent Soul inheritance, but he probably doesn't know how to transform the Golden Core building into a Nascent Soul Daoist temple, right?"
"Don't worry, I'm here today to help you and the rest of the Yi family resolve this issue."

"Oh, do you have a complete Great Dao Nascent Soul inheritance?"

No, even if you could enter the Dao Academy's Heavenly Library, you probably wouldn't see the Nascent Soul inheritance. How would you know about this?

The Tongtian Library is at most a typical acquired treasure, and it probably cannot bear the inheritance of a Great Dao Nascent Soul.

Have you ever been to the Tower of Omniscience or the Corridor of Inquiry?

Ding Yunxian smiled.

"I have entered both the Tower of Omniscience and the Corridor of Inquiry."

Since you've entered the Corridor of Inquiry, you should know that it has a function that creates a database of bloodline information, based on bloodline.

Although I come from a traditional ancient cultivation family, I happen to have the bloodline of a second-rank Heavenly Monarch family.

From the corridor of inquiry, I happened to learn some knowledge about the Nascent Soul stage of the Great Dao.

Dongfang Hong naturally knew that achieving the Great Dao Nascent Soul was not easy, but she did not believe that without Ding Yunxian, she could not achieve the Great Dao Nascent Soul; it would just take a little more time.

Seeing Dongfang Hong's dismissive expression, Ding Yunxian shook her head.
"Okay, to put it simply, you might be able to become a Nascent Soul cultivator even without me."

However, there are differences between different Great Dao Nascent Souls.

Some Nascent Soul cultivators achieve the foundation of the Great Dao as soon as they are born, while others only achieve the foundation of the Great Dao after advancement. Without a heaven-defying opportunity, it is basically impossible for them to transform their Nascent Soul into the Great Dao.

In terms of combat power, there may be no essential difference between the Great Dao and the Foundation of All Things, but in terms of survivability, the two are not even in the same league.

In recent years, there have been instances of Nascent Soul cultivators falling in the Immortal Kingdom, but those who have fallen are mostly Nascent Soul cultivators who have attained the Great Dao of All Things.

A being like the Great Dao Connecting to the Great Dao Nascent Soul is so powerful that even if surrounded by numerous Immortal Kings in the Immortal Realm, they might not be able to kill it.

"I'll do it."

"Alright, Mother, I invited the teacher to build the Heavenly Pillar, the Heavenly Pillar of Tianzhu Mountain."

Yi Ling's lips twitched, and she interrupted Ding Yunxian. She knew that Ding Yunxian had said so much to Dongfang Hong because she believed Dongfang Hong was one of the heads of the Yi family and wanted to gain his support in the Qingzhou Immortal Kingdom.

However, Yi Ling knew that the so-called Yi family was actually just Yi Dong's family, and the others, even their children, were just secondary.

As for Dongfang Hong, her status in the Yi family is quite high, and many members of the Yi family have to be mindful of her. However, the Holy Body puppets under Yi Dong's command don't take her seriously at all.

The reality is that the Qingzhou Immortal Kingdom is now entirely controlled by the Great Awakening Puppet. Dongfang Hong's actual authority in the Qingzhou Immortal Kingdom is even less than that of Taichu Zixing.

In short, Dongfang Hong has no say in what he wants to do in the Qingzhou Immortal Kingdom, so there's no need to explain too much about it.

Upon hearing Yi Ling's words, Ding Yunxian instantly understood and fell silent.

With a pat from Yi Ling, the green ox stomped its foot and vanished into thin air, heading towards the teleportation array of the Buddhist city.

Wuming naturally followed Yiling away.

Ding Yunxian and Dongfang Hong exchanged a glance, then followed.

Three months later, in Xiandu, at night.

On Purple Gold Mountain, Ding Yunxian and Yi Ling gazed at the distant, white-glowing Nine Heavens Ice Peak, then at the moon radiating a pale red light in the sky. Ding Yunxian said to Yi Ling beside her:

"If we could connect with the rainbow moon in the sky, and use these Nine Heavens Ice Peaks as a foundation, we could build an even better Heavenly Pillar that leads directly to the void."

"After it's built, how much worse will it be than Tianzhu Mountain?"

"There's no comparison at all. Tianzhu Mountain is said to have been built by gathering all the fragments of the ancient immortal realms in the Heavenly Capital Spirit Realm."

However, in reality, most of the fragments of the ancient immortal realm were collected from the void by the remnants of the immortal kingdom.

Within the Heavenly Capital Spirit Realm, the families of First-Rank Immortal Lords are basically families of Immortal Emperors. In the ancient Immortal Kingdom era, each of these families was the ruler of a mid-to-high-rank Immortal Kingdom, and Immortal Emperors emerged one after another.

With the completion of Tianzhu Mountain, these celestial emperor families have all contributed some of their resources.

Tianzhu Mountain in the Heavenly Capital Spirit Realm will become the pillar of a first-class immortal kingdom, and the Heavenly Capital Spirit Realm will devour the immortal realm and become the new immortal realm.

Perhaps other immortal kingdoms will be established in the future, but unless other immortal kingdoms descend upon this void with their immortal realms, probably no celestial pillar can compare to Tianzhu Mountain.

Yi Ling frowned.

Ding Yunxian knew what Yi Ling was thinking and said:
"We have virtually no hope of establishing the foundation of our great path on Tianzhu Mountain."

Within Tianzhu Mountain, the number of places for those with a strong foundation in the Great Dao is limited. Even the families of immortal lords don't have enough, so how could it possibly be a chance for ordinary cultivators like us?

The Heavenly Capital Spirit Realm is expanding, but with the increase in the number of slots, even the Immortal Lord families don't have enough to go around, so it's impossible to give them to outsiders.

I know you feel that the Qingzhou Immortal Kingdom only occupies a corner of the Vast Ocean Spirit Realm and that it is not safe.

Actually, there's no need to worry about that. Our Jinxiu team excels at positional warfare and protracted battles.

Once we have a base, even if it takes ten million years to conquer the Vast Ocean Spirit Realm, we can conquer it in a few hundred million years.

Once we become Nascent Soul cultivators of the Great Dao, time has no meaning for us.

The true dragons of this realm are powerful, but their sheer numbers are their Achilles' heel. Even with external assistance, it is difficult for them to drive out the Great Awakening Puppet.

Moreover, we don't need to kill all the true dragons in the Vast Sea Spirit Realm. We can simply compress their space and drive them out of the Vast Sea Spirit Realm.

"It can only be the."

Just then, a huge dragon head emerged from the void, and its powerful pressure caused Ding Yunxian and Yi Ling to frown slightly.

"I don't care what you want to do, but you can't destroy the Nine Heavens Ice Peak."

Seeing this ancient ice dragon, comparable to a Celestial King, Yi Ling could only explain:

"Don't worry, the Nine Heavens Ice Peak is part of the Heavenly Pillar and its properties will not change."

Yi Ling was not lying.

The guardian beast of the Heavenly Capital Spirit Realm also has its own dojo within Tianzhu Mountain.

Although the Heavenly Pillar that Qingzhou Immortal Kingdom is going to build is not as large as the Heavenly Pillar Mountain, the Nine Heavens Ice Peak will only occupy a small part of it, so there is no need to deliberately change the dojos of these guardian beasts.

After hearing Yi Ling's answer, the old ice dragon nodded and disappeared into the space.

Ding Yunxian looked at Yi Ling.
"By the way, building the Heavenly Pillar requires the assistance of the Celestial Emperor driving the Celestial Array, you..."

"Don't worry, Wuming will persuade those Great Awakening Puppets. It seems that I am not far from ascending to the position of Immortal Emperor. It's a pity that this is the position of Azure Emperor. If only I could condense the position of Crimson Emperor."

Yi Ling was full of confidence, but Ding Yunxian was not so optimistic. After the Heavenly Craft Puppet developed its own intelligence, its strength far exceeded its external level.

The nearly ten thousand Great Awakening Puppets are basically at the Bodhisattva level, comparable to the Void Returning stage, and to a certain extent, they can be considered as nearly ten thousand True Immortals.

Especially these Great Awakening Puppets, which are even more powerful than those Ding Yunxian saw at the main campus of the Dao Academy. Ding Yunxian couldn't understand how Wuming could make Yi Ling become an Immortal Emperor if he couldn't persuade those Great Awakening Puppets with words.
