The Primordial Era: Starting with Jingwei Filling the Sea

Fang Yang did not stay on Jin'ao Island for long. After collecting enough rare and precious materials, he left Jin'ao Island.

While academic affairs certainly need to be managed, personal cultivation is even more important. Fang Yang wants to change the Jie Sect, partly to repay his master's kindness, and partly to increase his chances of attaining the Primordial Dao.

Imagine if the Three Pure Ones fully supported Fang Yang's attainment of the Primordial Chaos Dao, who could stop him? When the Three Pure Ones join forces, it's not as simple as one plus one plus one.

Fang Yang's departure caused no ripples. He rarely cultivated on Jin'ao Island anyway, and his team had moved with him to Qingcheng Mountain, so it made little difference whether he was on Jin'ao Island or not.

However, Fang Yang encountered a small incident while flying over the East China Sea.

High above, a cold gaze was fixed on Fang Yang. The owner of the gaze was a powerful being shrouded in a black cloak, his hands gripping a jet-black chain, his body surrounded by swirling demonic energy.

This person was actually a powerful figure in the demonic path.

Upon seeing Fang Yang appear, his eyes emitted a ghostly green demonic light. Dense, primordial demonic lightning surged from his claws. The lightning exploded, shattering all realms, countless lightning orbs churning, and killing intent coalesced within it.

Just as this person was about to make a move, a sword light flew from the sky and stabbed towards the brow of the powerful demon.

With this sword strike, killing runes surged forth, extinguishing all life force. Before the sword light even reached the body, the sword intent had already pierced through the protective demonic light of the powerful demonic cultivator.

The sudden assassination attempt filled the demonic cultivator with horror; it was too late for him to retaliate. He was torn to shreds by countless sword strikes.

Before his body and soul were completely destroyed, the powerful demonic cultivator finally saw the appearance of the person who had made the move.

The newcomer was dressed in yellow, with an icy expression. His longsword gleamed with a sharp light, and countless sword worlds and kingdoms surrounded him. With a single point of his sword, he pierced through endless space and time, directly striking the life essence of the powerful demonic cultivator.

"Master Qi Sha, you actually became this junior's protector? Hahaha, I never thought that you, who always considered yourself extraordinary, would become a sage's lackey."

After saying this, the powerful demonic cultivator transformed into a cloud of demonic energy and dispersed into the world.

Daoist Qisha looked at the spot where the powerful demonic cultivator had disappeared and shook his head repeatedly: "Lackey? Sage Tongtian saved my life. If it weren't for Sage Tongtian's protection, I would have died at the hands of Ancestor Styx long ago. You demonic monsters will never understand what it means to repay kindness."

At the most dangerous moment, the protectors that the Tongtian Sect Leader had arranged for Fang Yang came into play. Fang Yang only vaguely sensed all of this.

When the powerful demonic cultivator looked down at him, Fang Yang felt a sudden tightness in his body, the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end, and a sense of great danger welled up in his heart. This feeling came quickly and went even faster; the moment Daoist Qisha made his move, the warning in his heart vanished completely.

Fang Yang knew that he must have just encountered danger. However, the danger was resolved by Daoist Qi Sha as soon as it arrived.

He cupped his hands in gratitude towards the void. He secretly kept this in mind and decided to seek guidance from the Tongtian Sect Leader in the future.

He is currently too weak to take revenge even if he learns the truth. However, once his cultivation level increases, he will definitely eradicate the mastermind and related forces.

Fang Yang is a vengeful person!

After a brief incident, Fang Yang returned to Qingcheng Mountain unharmed. The first thing he did upon returning was to reward those who had contributed to the victory, distributing prizes to the Nine Luminaries True Lord and the Five Great True Lords.

These fourteen people were merely outer disciples, ineligible to enter the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion, and had never seen so many treasures before. Even when True Monarch Nine Luminaries followed Holy Mother Wudang, he never had the opportunity to come into contact with the treasures of the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion.

The Holy Mother of Wudang was too conventional; she would never dare to use the treasures of the Jiejiao treasury to reward her followers.

Fang Yang was much bolder. He believed that as long as the disciples of the Jie Sect made contributions to the sect, regardless of their status, they should receive appropriate rewards.

After receiving their rewards, everyone was overjoyed and expressed their gratitude to Fang Yang.

The treasures in the Myriad Manifestations Pavilion were all collected by the Tongtian Sect Leader. Many of these divine items can directly enhance a person's strength. Now that they have received these rewards, whether they use them to refine formations or to further enhance their abilities, they can greatly increase their power.

Fang Yang told everyone that as long as they could make contributions to the Jie Sect, the Jie Sect would definitely not treat them unfairly.

From Fang Yang, everyone felt the power and influence of a great sect of saints, and they couldn't help but feel proud of their status as disciples of the Jie Sect.

If they weren't disciples of the Jie Sect, how could they enjoy such treatment?

After finishing his trivial matters, Fang Yang entered the Guantian Hall for seclusion.

He had two major tasks to accomplish during this seclusion. First, he would refine the World Pearl to advance the World Tree. Second, he would forge the Human Emperor Banner to enslave Lü Yue.

These two matters, one concerning Fang Yang's strength and the other concerning the future of the Jie Sect, are both extremely important. Previously, if it weren't for his mission to spread the teachings, Fang Yang would have already gone into seclusion to handle these two matters.

Inside the hall, Fang Yang gestured with one hand, drawing upon the spiritual energy of the entire grotto-heaven, which instantly coalesced into five spiritual rivers that flowed into the Heavenly Viewing Hall. With a thought, the young World Tree flew out from his body and crashed into the void.

After obtaining the World Tree, he lacked the resources to cultivate it. The origin of the world is extremely rare; even for powerful beings of heaven and earth, obtaining it is not easy.

Fang Yang manipulated the World Tree, devouring the river of spiritual energy.

Spiritual energy cannot elevate the World Tree, but it can provide some energy for its growth. All living beings need energy to grow and thrive.

After absorbing the spiritual energy of the five elements, the leaves of the World Tree became even greener, as if it had gained some power.

Fang Yang slowly and deliberately took out the World Pearl and gently inserted it into the World Tree.

This World Bead contains the essence of nine outer worlds, possessing extremely powerful energy. As soon as the World Bead entered the World Tree, it began to decompose, breaking down from the bead itself into nine clusters of world essence.

Boom!

Having absorbed the essence of the world, the World Tree immediately began to grow rapidly.

The World Tree is naturally capable of devouring the world's essence to grow. Now, encountering the essence of nine extraterrestrial worlds, it is like a long-awaited rain after a drought. Every part of the tree trunk is greedily absorbing the world's essence, and the tender green branches and leaves on the tree suddenly stretch out, extending into the void.

Fang Yang was astonished to see that the interior of the World Tree was actually creating something new.

Every cell in the world turned into chaos, and then the chaos exploded, revealing small worlds with clear skies and bright earth.

The reason they are called heaven and earth is that these small worlds, though small, are complete in every way, possessing all the structures that a complete heaven and earth possess. Within these small worlds, the sun and moon revolve, life reproduces, and laws evolve.

Fang Yang's thoughts, following the World Tree, roamed freely in the void. The branches of the World Tree stretched out, exploring various times and spaces.

Through the World Tree, Fang Yang's consciousness roamed between the Thirty-Three Heavens and the Ninety-Nine Earths, with all the gods of the heavens and the ghosts of the underworld under the influence of his consciousness.

The roots of the World Tree were also growing, constantly displaying chaotic-colored runes of the Great Dao. At a certain moment, the roots of the World Tree penetrated the barrier of the World's membrane and explored into the chaos.

boom!

The World Tree absorbed the endless chaotic energy, refined it into the purest innate spiritual energy, and then transformed it into boundless magical power, which was stored in the small world inside the World Tree.

This magical power was many times faster than the speed at which a Nascent Soul absorbed chaotic energy. If a Nascent Soul absorbed chaotic energy through an IV drip, the World Tree directly extracted it using a pump—the difference was like heaven and earth.

This surge of power into his body was almost too much for Fang Yang's physical form to handle. It was only because he had refined the World Tree and could use it as a meridian that he dared not use this magical power so easily.

"Good, good, good, I feel the power surging up. From now on, I truly have the ability to contend with a Grand Luo Golden Immortal. More importantly, with this power, I no longer need to worry about insufficient magical power when cultivating various supernatural abilities."

Fang Yang put away the World Tree, his face full of excitement. Now, he could barely be considered a minor expert in the world.
