Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 378 The Galaxy in the Abyss
After hearing Zhou Qing recount the situation of the Liu Clan and how they worshipped him as a god, Nie Yunxi noticed something unusual.

She asked, "So, in reality, it was Miaoyun who ignited Liu Wen's passion."

"And Liu Wen then passed the torch to someone else."

"Compared to others, Miaoyun is the one who truly ignited the flame of faith on her own."

"According to you, Miaoyun should still be your follower. Why hasn't she become your follower like the other members of the Liu tribe?"

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "Perhaps she doesn't really believe it, who knows?"

Zhou Qing had no interest in delving into such trivial matters; there were truly important things waiting for him.

Now that everything is settled, he finally has the time to investigate the changes in the Dao Heart World.

Zhou Qing returned to his secluded cave, closed his eyes, concentrated, and entered the world of Dao Heart.

As soon as he entered the Dao Heart World, he was shocked by the vastness of the world before him.

Originally, his Dao Heart World was only about two hundred miles long, but now it has expanded to nearly a thousand miles.

The ability of the Dao Heart World to generate spiritual energy has also increased significantly. Originally, the spiritual energy in the Dao Heart World was very thin, much less than that in the Great Qian Dynasty.

The spiritual energy here is now slightly higher than that of the Great Qian Dynasty, approaching the level of the mortal world of the Western Continent.

As the ruler of the Dao Heart World, Zhou Qing can manipulate everything in the Dao Heart World by virtue of his own will.

He gathered the spiritual energy of the Dao Heart World into one place and found that it was only the amount of a few rays of chaotic divine light.

It’s still too little.

However, at least the outlook is promising.

Zhou Qing continued to examine the area and discovered several more changes. For example, the barrier of the Dao Heart World had become more robust, and many stars had appeared on the barrier.

These stars are his connection with his believers. When he picks up a grain of stardust, it is as if he is looking at the believer that the grain of stardust represents.

This is the authority of the gods, and cannot be explained by ordinary magic or supernatural powers.

Seeing the current state of the Dao Heart World, Zhou Qing truly believed that one day it could become an independent world.

However, it is clearly not yet at the point of transformation.

Zhou Qing didn't know when the crucial moment would arrive.

He just felt that when the time came, he would get a sense of it.

……

Lu Mingzhao indeed reneged on the bet.

This was not unexpected for Zhou Qing. He sent Cao Yang to Qingxu Dao Palace to ask Lu Mingzhao for the Melting Gold Pill.

Lu Mingzhao did not make things difficult for Cao Yang, but he also did not see him. He simply claimed to be in seclusion and asked Zhou Qing to go there in person.

Zhou Qing naturally wouldn't go in person.

He was deeply impressed by the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Secret Locking Array back then, and he could imagine that the Four Great Dao Palaces must also have similar arrays.

Once you go there, it's not easy to get out.

With no extra Melting Gold Pills left, Zhou Qing quickly used up the ten Melting Gold Pills he had previously acquired.

The seven pills given to Bai Mei created three Nascent Soul cultivators: Mu Mingsheng, Xiang Lian, and Zhou Qingxia. The efficiency was quite good.

Zhou Qing kept three for himself, and gave two of them to Guzhuzi and Huanglong.

This was his previous promise.

In the end, Gu Zhu Zi successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, but Huang Long failed.

Thus, of the ten pills, only one remained, which Zhou Qing kept for himself. Apart from that, there were no more Gold-Melting Pills left in the entire Western Continent.

According to statistics from the Hongfa Daoist Center, there are 145 Golden Core cultivators in the Western Continent, among whom 23 are at the peak of the Golden Core stage and qualified to attempt a breakthrough. Unfortunately, elixirs are extremely scarce, and although these people clearly see the path ahead, they are forced to acknowledge that it has been cut off.

The situation in Central Asia is not much better than that in West Antarctica.

According to Zhou Qing's investigation, there are more than a thousand Golden Core cultivators in the four major Dao Palaces alone in Zhongzhou. If you include the Golden Core cultivators in the seven major Dao Fields and various Golden Core sects, the total number should be more than three thousand.

Even if we calculate it as one-tenth, there are still three hundred people qualified to break through to the Golden Core stage.

The four Daoist palaces only had a little over a hundred Melting Gold Pills left.

The four major Daoist palaces couldn't possibly take out all these pills; they would definitely have to consider the future.

The amount that could be given to outsiders was even more pitifully small.

The scarcity of resources made all the cultivators in Qionghua Continent feel that the future was bleak.

Under these circumstances, more and more cultivators are returning to the mortal world.

They no longer expect to achieve anything on the path to immortality, but instead hope to use their cultivation to enjoy life in the mortal world.

The return of cultivators to the mortal world immediately caused a great upheaval in the human realm.

Compared to the other continents, the situation in West Antarctica was much better under the rule of the divine dynasty.

However, many rumors still reached Zhou Qing's ears.

These rumors contained a kind of apocalyptic madness, making Zhou Qingqing clearly feel that Qionghua Continent was truly rotten to the core.

They were like sailing on a turbulent sea, but instead of a sturdy ship, they were standing on rotting wood.

Knowing the situation well, Zhou Qing felt the heaviest pressure than anyone else.

To combat this pressure, he had no choice but to devote himself to cultivation in all the worlds.

Fifteen years passed in this way, and Zhou Qing raised all 195 of his dantian to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment.

Over the years, the rule of the Divine Dynasty has become completely stable. In addition to selecting many talented immortal cultivators for the Western Continent, they have also brought Zhou Qing a steady stream of believers, expanding his Daoist world to a radius of nearly three thousand miles.

The concentration of spiritual energy there is also at the level of a Foundation Establishment family in the Western Continent.

Just as he raised all his dantian to the eighth level of Foundation Establishment, Zhou Qing suddenly sensed a strange change in his Dao Heart World.

This change is both the result of the believer's accumulation of knowledge and the effect of his improved spiritual realm and elevated level of life.

Zhou Qing didn't have time to check his strength after the realm upgrade before immediately entering the Dao Heart World.

He was like an invisible spirit lingering over the three thousand miles of land in the Dao Heart World.

He is not located in one place, but exists simultaneously in every corner of the Dao Heart World, observing everything as if reading the lines on a palm.

However, he did not immediately notice the changes in the Dao Heart World.

Finally, he realized that the change did not occur within the Dao Heart World, but rather outside.

He turned his gaze to the dark void outside the Dao Heart World, a treacherous abyss of demons.

Zhou Qing had gazed at this space countless times, but apart from the infinitely high and distant world where the demons and gods lived, he could see nothing in the Demon Abyss.

This time, however, the situation is quite different.

Looking down from the Dao Heart World, Zhou Qing discovered that twinkling starlight had appeared in the once dark void.

He felt as if he were standing above the Milky Way, looking down at the galaxy, and the dazzling sight was breathtaking.

What is this thing, and why is it in the Abyss of Demons?

Zhou Qing gazed at the starry sky for a long time.
