I start by marrying Yunxiao, who's in a vegetative state; I'm invincible in the primor

Just as the primordial calamity ended, and all races and beings competed freely under the frosty sky, bursting forth with development!

chaos.

Beyond the myriad stars.

The vast world of the Easternmost Eight Desolations.

The Supreme Saint of the Eastern Pole summoned the Eight Saints of the Eight Desolations for a meeting!

"Teacher, what is that world like?"

The Supreme Saint of the Eastern Pole: "That realm is more than a hundred or a thousand times larger than the Eight Desolations?"

"Is Fushuo more than a hundred or a thousand times better?"

"The Eight Desolations are too barren, with only Crimson Beard Shaking Light Ginseng and countless Xuan Frost Jade Marrow mines."

The Eight Desolations are not like the vast and boundless Primordial World, where nature is exceptionally beautiful and abundant!

Within the vast wilderness, there are only desolate and towering mountains.

It contains countless mineral essences such as Xuan Shuang Chalcedony, Primordial Ink Crystal, and Star Soil Gold Sand.

It is far less vast and abundant than the primordial wilderness!

"Teacher, that place is so rich and vast, there must be many powerful beings there, right?"

Eastern Supreme Saint: "There are only a handful of cultivators at the Supreme Saint realm, far from reaching their peak. The rest are nothing but ants."

Upon hearing this, the Eight Desolations and Eight Sages' eyes lit up. "Then what merit do they possess to occupy such a rich and abundant world? They should all be branded and sent to the wasteland to mine!"

"I am invincible throughout the eight wastelands of the East!"

"Teacher, destroy that realm!"

The Eastern Supreme Saint smiled, "Today I've summoned two groups of Immortal Saints to discuss the annihilation of that realm!"

"Cultivators at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm and above who participate in the battle will gain tens of millions of miles of land and sky afterward; those at the Primordial Golden Immortal realm and above will gain hundreds of millions of miles of land and sky. You may each occupy one of those areas!"

The Supreme Daoist voice of the Eastern Pole descended.

Both groups of immortals and saints in the hall were excited.

"However, to traverse the boundless chaotic starry sky, one needs star soil and golden sand."

"A vessel crafted from star-soil and golden sand, capable of carrying cultivators as they traverse the starry sky!"

"Using Primordial Ink Crystal to draw a spatial array diagram can amplify the power of the array by more than a hundred or a thousand times?"

"Go back and prepare! Ten thousand years from now, we will raze that land to the ground!"

"Yes!" The two groups of immortals stood up excitedly and bowed respectfully!

The two groups of immortals returned to their respective territories, summoned their experts, and prepared to launch an attack!

The Western Wilderness is the richest place in the Eight Wildernesses, with countless mountains and a wealth of Primordial Ink Crystals, Mysterious Frost Jade Marrow, and Starry Sand.

The Western Wilderness Saint has hundreds of millions of mining slaves.

Among them was a miner named Yinri.

Yin Ri, a peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal, was extremely excited upon hearing that the Western Wilderness Saint was recruiting cultivators to attack another world. "What? As long as we go to war and win, we can obtain a vast and prosperous fiefdom spanning tens of millions of miles? And it will all belong to us?"

Yin Ri was a miner's slave, branded and with no status. He was a slave, and his resting place was a tiny space crammed with tens of thousands of cultivators!

Yin Ri dreams of having his own fiefdom and becoming a yangban (aristocrat)!

The Liangban are the ruling class in the Eastern Extreme Eight Desolations. Only the Eight Saints of the Eight Desolations and their direct descendants are qualified to be called Liangban Immortal Saints.

Miners who want to participate in the war need to make sufficient contributions and mine enough ore to qualify!

Think of this.

Yin Ri instantly felt no longer sleepy or tired. He circulated his internal magic power to its limit, wielding a mining pickaxe made of Xuan Shuang Jade Marrow and reinforced with arrays engraved with Primordial Ink Crystal, and began mining with all his might!

Every time the pickaxe falls, sweat pours down like rain!

If Jieyin and Zhunti were here, seeing the pickaxe in his hand, they would surely drool with envy, exclaiming, "Damn, a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure!"

"Damn, that rich?"

Clearly! Xuan Shuang Jadeite and Primordial Black Crystal are extremely precious!

It would take a peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal a hundred years of continuous digging to obtain just one or two ounces of mineral marrow!

It takes resources gathered over ten thousand years to forge such a pickaxe!

There are countless ores like this in the Eastern Extremes and Eight Desolations. Therefore, the spiritual treasures of this world, like the Three Lights Divine Water in Li Yu's hands, are not much more precious than bland chicken soup!

The harder you work, the more energetic you become!

In order to fight, he even spent all the wealth he had accumulated over millions of years and took out a loan to buy a top-grade innate pickaxe, just to make mining faster!

Despite being burdened with an enormous debt, Yin Ri thought, "It doesn't matter. As long as I can acquire a fiefdom spanning tens of millions of miles, I can turn things around, and everything will be alright!"

There are countless mining slaves like Yin Ri!

As if there was hope, they worked overtime to mine for the two shifts of men!

Fifty thousand years later.

The Xuan Shuang Jade Marrow was used to forge a colossal ship capable of carrying hundreds of billions of cultivators!

Next, the Primordial Ink Crystal will be engraved on it to strengthen it!

……

The primordial chaos!

Fifty thousand years have passed.

After 1,296,000 years of nurturing, the heavens successfully gave birth to a son!

His name was given by the Tongtian Sect Leader; his formal name was Li Jiye.

There are too many nicknames to list, such as the Little Master of the Jie Sect, the First Emperor's Crown Prince, and the Great Prince of the Heavenly Court.

The birth of the human crown prince was accompanied by auspicious purple clouds from the east!

He was born with the cultivation level of a Primordial Golden Immortal!

The countless beings and powerful beings of the primordial world were utterly horrified. "Hasn't the Crown Prince shattered the myth of Sun Wukong?"

"Sun Wukong attained the Great Luo of Hunyuan after five thousand years, and the Crown Prince was born as a Great Luo of Hunyuan."

"Didn't you see how long it took for the Crown Prince to be born?"

"In short, he has the bearing of an emperor!"

Over the past fifty thousand years, countless geniuses have been born in the primordial world!

Veteran cultivators have retreated from the world, while prodigies have emerged and dominated!

Nothing more!

Li Yu convened a meeting of his ministers and issued an edict urging them not to slacken their efforts and to intensify preparations for war!

Although the masses were puzzled, they all carried out the orders diligently!

For the past fifty thousand years, not a single cultivator has dared to slack off!

They were all practicing with their lives on the line!

Kong Xuan, in particular, had been in seclusion. "Damn it! So close! Always so close? Why is it always so close?"

Styx: "You blockhead, you blockhead! When you finally understand where that difference lies, you'll be able to attain enlightenment!"

Spiritual practice knows no time.

Ten thousand years is but a blink of an eye for a cultivator!

Another 50,000 years have passed!

In the primordial world, there was peace, tranquility, and no major conflicts.

However, a practical problem has arisen.

The number of cultivators in the primordial world is increasing, and the amount of spiritual energy they inhale and exhale every day is enormous!

In the primordial world when Pangu separated heaven and earth, the innate spiritual energy was so rich that it was in liquid form, and there was an endless supply of spiritual energy!

As time goes by!

The liquid innate spiritual energy gradually disappeared.

Since the Lich War, the primordial world has been shattered into four continents, and innate spiritual energy has become even scarcer, almost all of it has degenerated into acquired spiritual energy!

Even now!

The spiritual energy of the primordial world is becoming increasingly scarce.

Many cultivators often fight each other, just to compete for a blessed land containing spiritual energy!

The problem of an increasing number of cultivators and insufficient spiritual energy is greater than any fear brought about by any great calamity!

Countless cultivators were filled with fear: "What if one day the spiritual energy of the primordial world is completely exhausted?"

"What if the primordial wilderness becomes a land devoid of spirits?"

Fear gripped my heart!

When Styx returned to his ancestral land for tea, he couldn't help but sigh, "Recently, too many cultivators have taken risks to absorb the blood sea's malevolent energy for cultivation."

"One wrong move, and you'll be severely injured by the malevolent energy, or even die on the spot."

"Your Majesty, the spiritual energy of the primordial world is indeed insufficient."

Zhen Yuanzi also arrived at the ancestral land. "Countless cultivators have poured into Longevity Mountain, and the spiritual energy of Longevity Mountain is becoming thinner. I'm afraid it won't last for another 100,000 years."

If Wanshou Mountain, a top-tier blessed land, is like this, one can only imagine the spiritual energy of other places!

"The current scene of myriad races competing freely under the Frosty Sky is a false prosperity. In the future... cultivation will become increasingly difficult. I never imagined that one day the spiritual energy of the primordial world would be insufficient..."

Li Yu met with Pangu.

Pangu also knew that the primordial world had grown enormous. "You and I can join forces to set up a grand star array, drawing the power of the chaotic stars into the primordial world to replenish its spiritual energy! But the power of the array is ultimately limited. There are countless cultivators in the primordial world; it will only be a drop in the ocean!"

"Unless a grand formation covering the entire primordial world can be set up, but that's impossible, at least not even for a Primordial Chaos Golden Immortal!"

Li Yu pondered for a moment, "Jue Ling... the internal crisis is fierce, so the external enemy has diverted their panic..."

"I think I understand now; this is probably another manifestation of the great Dao!"

"I think we'll know the answer soon!"
