In a perfect world, you start by relying on your own strength.

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Everything is on track and things are running smoothly. With a super-intelligent system like ASH overseeing everything, integrating the remnants of the past, sorting out the lineage of civilization, and planning the future are all proceeding in an orderly manner. It is only a matter of time before the once dilapidated and declining human civilization returns to its former glory.

Shi Geng rarely travels far and spends most of his time in Dragonbone Village. In his spare time, he carefully teaches the villagers exquisite guiding techniques to help them strengthen their bodies and practice martial arts, so that ordinary people can also use this to resist the dangers of the wasteland.

He never slacked off in his own cultivation, and after half a year of dedicated hard work, his cultivation steadily reached the fifth level of the planetary realm.

This steady progress, while not exactly rapid, is to be expected, given the scarcity of cultivation resources on this wasteland planet. The only option is to absorb cosmic energy step by step for cultivation, which is one of the reasons Shi Gen wanted to leave.

Half a year has passed, and the long-silent True Spirit Space remains tranquil.

The group of Shi Gen were all busy with their own cultivation, and none of them dared to disturb this place of origin of consciousness. In particular, the Heavenly Dao Shi Gen had completely disappeared since his last seclusion to reshape the laws of heaven and earth and transform the world, and had not appeared for a long time.

Until today, the silence was suddenly broken, and the figure of Tiandao Shigen slowly stepped into the True Spirit Space.

In an instant, all the stone pillars from different worlds manifested simultaneously, standing tall in the void.

After half a year apart, everyone reunited, their aura and physique completely transformed, undergoing a tremendous metamorphosis compared to the past, with their inner strength becoming increasingly profound and deep.

Their eyes met, and without needing to say anything more, their bodies touched lightly, and in an instant, they shared and exchanged all their experiences, observations, and insights from the past six months.

In just a few breaths, all the past events became clear, and all the clones turned their heads at the same time, their gazes falling on the Devouring Stone.

"Ahem... Why are you all staring at me like that? Can't you at least give me some privacy?"

Devouring Stone subconsciously touched the tip of his nose, a hint of unease flashing across his face. Even though they shared the same origin, sharing such a thing so openly still made him feel awkward all over.

He pouted slightly and complained, "You were the ones who told me to block out the Dawn Hall in the first place."

Upon hearing this, both Perfect Stone Entrance and Dragon-Snake Stone Entrance turned their heads in unison, casting their gazes toward Heavenly Dao Stone Entrance, who stood in the void.

After several months apart, Tiandao Shigen was no longer the same as before. The vast divine light of laws flowing around him was even more intense and dazzling, and layers of Dao rhyme surrounded him. His aura was vast and distant, and he was several times stronger than before.

As their gazes fell upon the Heavenly Dao Stone, they could all clearly perceive its earth-shattering transformation.

The originally faint Daoist charm now surged wildly, and the laws of heaven and earth intertwined to form a dazzling light that illuminated the void. Every ray of light seemed to contain the great power to open up and control the universe.

Tiandao Shigen spoke calmly, revealing what he had gained from this seclusion: "During this time, I have completed the initial transformation of the world I am in. The structure of heaven and earth and the laws have all been finalized. Originally, all I needed to do was let nature take its course and wait for all things to evolve and grow on their own."

"But now that there is an immortal legacy that devours you, we'll have to keep busy for a while."

Tiandao Shigen glanced at Devouring Shigen, his heart already bursting with joy.

Having obtained this complete and immortal inheritance, the world he governs suddenly gained an additional path of cultivation, greatly filling the gap in the world's cultivation system and providing immeasurable assistance.

It's not that the original true interpretation circulating in Perfect World is inferior in the slightest; on the contrary, this scripture is extremely powerful.

Unfortunately, its realm is too profound and unfathomable. It is a quasi-immortal emperor scripture created by the Immortal Emperor of the past, containing boundless mysteries of heaven and earth and profound meanings of the Great Dao.

With his current limited world's Dao, even if he devoted himself to studying it for a long time, he could only touch the surface and could not deeply explore its essence and wonders, so naturally he could not fully promote and popularize it.

Devouring Stone curled his lip: "Take it or leave it, you're lucky."

The Heavenly Dao Orb trembled but ignored the Devouring Stone. The divine light of laws flowing around it became more and more solid and stable. Then it looked at the Perfect Stone and said, "You have already reached 200,000 jin of strength, which can be considered as touching the peak of your current realm. You have reached the limit of the Blood Moving Realm."

Perfect Stone spread his palms helplessly, his tone full of resignation: "There's nothing we can do. The laws of the lower realm are inherently incomplete, and the origin of heaven and earth is flawed. Cultivators born into this world are born with deficiencies in their foundation."

Such innate limitations are difficult to break free from. At the same level, they are inherently inferior to the geniuses of the upper realm, lacking in both foundation and potential.

To completely break through this barrier, one must eventually step into the true upper realm, borrow the power of the complete Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and re-temper the foundation of one's physical body. Only then can all the imperfections be repaired and perfected, and one break free from the shackles imposed by the laws of the lower realm.

The sphere of light condensed by the Heavenly Dao trembled slightly for a moment, then spoke slowly, advising, "In my opinion, you might as well wait a while longer."

"Once I have digested and integrated the immortal cultivation system of Swallowing the Stars, and then carefully refined and perfected the method of opening up the inner world, it will not be too late to break through then."

In his spare time, he had already used his power as the Heavenly Dao to deduce the complete and mysterious method of opening up the inner world. This matter was a natural outcome and there was no difficulty at all.

Now, having received the blessing of a vast and immortal inheritance, he has gained a clear understanding of many principles and can further optimize and improve the laws of the inner world, making the foundation of the newly opened inner world more solid, its scope broader, and its potential stronger. Therefore, he is not in a hurry to take action.

After a moment's thought, Perfect Stone nodded in agreement: "It's alright. We've already waited this long, so what's a little longer?"

Although the method for opening up the inner world has been deduced, it is still somewhat rudimentary. In the end, the Heavenly Dao Stone is just a small world. The inner world method that is opened up can at most accommodate the flow of one's own cultivation. However, if it is combined with the immortal inheritance of the Devouring Starry Sky and further deduced, the inner world that is opened up will not only be vast and boundless, but will also form an independent law domain. In the future, nurturing living beings, refining origins, and accumulating power will all be twice as effective with half the effort. The difference in foundation is like heaven and earth.

Tiandao Shigen nodded slightly, his eyes calm and unwavering: "Cultivating in the lower realm is constantly hampered by the incomplete laws. Once the inner world is successfully opened, some of the foundational deficiencies should be able to be repaired."

Devouring Stone stroked his chin and joked, "After this improvement, it's probably invincible in the Cave Heaven Realm."

The Heavenly Dao Orb swayed gently, already beginning its deduction, weaving and fusing the immortal inheritance, the laws of heaven and earth, and the profound mysteries of the perfect world's cave realm layer by layer, silently refining the most advanced opening-up technique, waiting only for its success so that Perfect Stone could break through in one fell swoop.
