I've already become an immortal lord, and only now is the spiritual energy reviving?

"This is the empire I, your ancestor, have conquered!"

On the screen, Qinglu Mountain, once desolate and dilapidated, is now shrouded in brilliant spiritual light.

The palace was magnificent, and the disciples were numerous.

The two orbs of spiritual light at the very center, the bright moon and the towering mountain, suppress the sect's fortune.

In addition, there's Qin Ranqing, who's digesting the Yang energy and breaking through the barrier, and Xu Sixing, who's nurturing his natal spirit sword in the side hall.

"Nominally there are two Foundation Establishment cultivators, but in reality there are four in charge!"

Qingyuan took a satisfied sip of his iced cola and switched to the large map mode.

With a slight flick of the wrist, it swung westward.

Imperial Sword Sect.

He designated that place as the main "copy" for the next decade.

"what?"

Qingyuan frowned slightly.

Logically speaking, Xu Sixing and Zhu Ming should have already lit up most of the internal map of the Imperial Sword Sect.

But now.

A thick layer of black mist spread outwards from the center of the [Undying Sword Tomb].

Wherever the black mist passed, all the investigation results became invalid, turning into unsettling "?".

He was somewhat puzzled, but suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he pulled out a part of the secrets about this land that he had extracted from Zhu Ming's remnant soul.

A background setting is displayed on the screen.

The Xuanhuang Great Realm is vast and boundless, divided into three layers.

The bottom layer refers to the "present world" where all living beings reside.

The middle level is the realm of the [Great Void], accessible only to those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage or above, a place of wondrous and bizarre wonders.

At the top level lies the source of all laws, the Great Luo Heaven where true immortals reside.

Hundreds of years ago, the Great Luo Heaven was shaken.

An immortal whose true form was a nine-colored celestial deer fell from the Great Luo Heaven, having violated some heavenly law or perhaps suffered a great calamity.

The immortal body smashed through the void and crashed heavily onto the earth of the mortal world.

When the immortals fall, all things come to life.

His antlers became towering, rugged mountains, his blood became rivers, lakes, and seas, nourishing all directions, and his fur became vast forests and plains.

This is the origin of the name "Fairy Deer Plain".

The core forbidden area of ​​the Imperial Sword Sect is the [Undying Sword Tomb].

It seems to be related to the immortal's "heart" falling to the ground.

"So the ancestor of the Imperial Sword Sect chose this location to be a tomb keeper, and incidentally steal some offerings to eat?"

Qingyuan stroked his chin, lost in thought.

When fog shrouds the mountain, there must be evil spirits lurking there.

Perhaps the sect leader who was in seclusion triggered something.

"It's a bit of a pity."

Just like playing an RTS game, the fog of war that had been lifted has now closed again.

Losing that sense of complete control is a little unpleasant.

But then I thought about it again.

"So be it if I'm blind."

"After all, I didn't leave empty-handed; I even took Xu Sixing away, basin and all."

There are gains and losses; no matter how you calculate it, you're not at a loss.

Putting the black mist aside for the moment, Qingyuan slid the mouse down.

Blackwater City.

This is the sect's purse bag; it cannot be treated carelessly.

As soon as the screen switched, a log entry caught his attention.

[Major Diplomatic Events]

The He family, the most powerful family in Blackwater City, has announced a deep strategic partnership with Huayaotang in the field of elixirs.

Qingyuan figured out the intricacies of the matter.

Previously, Lang Che and Zhu Xuan's support for Yang Danhe mostly led the He family patriarch to mistakenly believe that [Hua Yaotang] was a "front" they had helped to establish.

With the intention of building good relations, we cooperated with Huayaotang.

Of course, one must be strong oneself to succeed.

If Yang Danhe were an incompetent fool, the He family wouldn't have condescended to do so.

Over the years, after obtaining the alchemy insights left by Zhuxuan, Lao Yang's alchemy skills have improved by leaps and bounds.

The two foolish apprentices, Ding Cheng and Fan Ju, almost caused the furnace to explode back then.

He is now a rising star among alchemists in Blackwater City, and is treated as an honored guest by countless small families.

As for Yang Danhe's identity...

It has been spread like wildfire by the rogue cultivators of Blackwater City.

What "abandoned son of Zhongzhou", "reclusive alchemy master", "illegitimate son of Master Zhuxuan... uh, close friend"?

The more it's spread, the more outrageous it becomes; the more outrageous it is, the less people dare to mess with it

"Externally, it has a tiger-skin banner; internally, it has nuclear deterrence."

"Guanhua Gate has finally passed through the most difficult period of initial accumulation."

Qingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

My gaze shifted upwards.

The time scale in the upper right corner ticks at a constant rhythm.

The countdown to the 20th year of the New Sect Calendar has begun.

Qingyuan got up and got a glass of water.

I sat back down at the computer and just took a sip of my drink.

"Whoosh—"

The sound effects were grand, with celestial music playing in unison.

In the center of the screen, a point of golden light exploded.

A magnificent painting, occupying the entire screen, unfolds to both sides.

On the scroll, dragons and birds coil, and one can vaguely see the blood and fire that the sect has experienced over the past ten years.

The changes in mountains and rivers are all contained within.

Several lines of large, gilded characters, exuding an awe-inspiring and inviolable majesty, appeared one by one:

In an era of great strife, those who do not advance will perish.

[Thanks to your visionary planning and ruthless, decisive methods.]

Not only did Guanhuamen stand firm amidst the encirclement of wolves, but it also bared its fangs, becoming a formidable hegemon in the region.

[Event Recap:]

[Eleventh Year: Yang Danhe traveled alone to Blackwater City. Under his strategic planning, Huayaotang rose to prominence, securing vital channels for the flow of funds and resources.]

From then on, even now, the sect has never worried about money or provisions.

[Year Twelfth: Under your guidance, the sect, with the help of Wen Xianyun, frantically devoured the resources of the Crimson Cloud, Hidden Spring, and Rain Thought sects, and completely dismantled and digested them.]

In the same year, facing assassinations of local forces such as those in Shanglin Village, Guanhuamen carried out a ruthless purge, eradicating internal threats and establishing the towns of Jiping and Anle, leading to a population explosion.

[Thirteenth year: The divine power of the "Sacrificial Altar" is beginning to manifest. You have integrated multiple secret texts and deduced ultimate techniques, which you bestow upon Shu Yan and Chai Wu respectively, laying a solid foundation for their future soaring achievements.]

[Fifteenth Year: Using the "Crimson Lotus of the Earth's Core" as bait, you orchestrated a trap.]

[Shu Yan and Chai Wu worked seamlessly together, slaying high-level demonic beasts and even drawing Xu Sixing, a true disciple of the Imperial Sword Sect, into their trap. The remnant soul "Zhu Ming" also became your prey.]

[Seventeenth Year: Shu Yan secluded herself in seclusion amidst the moonlit waters of the cold pool, while Chai Wu refined his golden body in the furnace of earthly fire. A storm was brewing, and the entire Qinglu Mountain awaited a thunderclap.]

[Year Nineteen: Taking advantage of Xu Sixing's faked death, they successfully turned him to the side, making this prodigy swear an oath to join the sect.]

[Twentieth Year: The tide has turned. Shu Yan and Chai Wu proclaim to Heaven and Earth, establishing their Daoist names as "Zhenyue" and "Qingyan."]

From this point on, Guanhua Sect was removed from the ranks of the lowest-level sects and joined the ranks of the elite sects of Xianlu Plain.

[Ten-Year Rating: Top C (ZTE Dominates)]

[Comment: You've transformed a struggling, third-rate sect into one capable of directly confronting Foundation Establishment cultivators.]

[Not only did they complete a thrilling game, but they also achieved an explosive surge in talent.]

Based on this prosperity rating, the rewards are as follows:
