Chapter 481: Fairy from Heaven

“The method of immortals lies in borrowing the false to cultivate the true!”

Wu Ming gazed at a world on the verge of collapse resting in his palm, his expression contemplative: “Even though it’s an illusion, it’s still a civilization, an epic!”

“Though heaven and earth perish, and the calamity of an era cannot be stopped, there should always be a glimmer of hope!”

With a sigh, the illusory image of Huangting’s blessed land solidified abruptly. With a crack, it swallowed the entire glowing orb formed by the illusory paradise.

“A calamity spanning eons, a glimmer of hope, borrowing the false to cultivate the true, the light of salvation!”

In an instant, Wu Ming’s voice echoed throughout the entire Dazhou Xiyu Ji world. Even if the heavens collapsed and stars fell, nothing could prevent his words from reverberating.

Zhu Shen Dian (Main God Hall)!

At the same time, the Yuanli Pool of the Main God’s Hall began to boil violently. Great waves of purple world energy emerged, forming into a purple dragon that dove into the Dazhou Xiyu Ji world.

“Roar! Roar!”

Miao Yi and Linglong Daojun, within the Dazhou Xiyu Ji world, witnessed a purple dragon whose body spanned the stars, almost encompassing the entire world, leaving them astonished: “This is the Pangu Dragon! The Creator has descended…”

“Roar! Roar!”

The purple dragon roared, and threads of purple energy drifted down. Zhang Tianxiang’s form had already become mostly ethereal, but with this touch of purple energy, flesh and blood regenerated, giving him a seemingly real physical body.

In the next instant, a beam of transcendent light appeared, enveloping him entirely.

“Although everything in Dazhou Xiyu Ji is false, the myriad living beings still hold great value. Especially since those with weak wills have already perished, those who have endured until now are the essence of this world!”

Wu Ming smiled slightly as he watched this scene: “With the spirit present, using the power of creation to transform the illusory into reality, giving them new physical forms or manifesting their existence, and then guiding them out—this is nothing extraordinary…”

One thought can destroy a world; one thought can save it!

This power to create and destroy at will, to be both god and demon, if known by Daojun like Linglong, would surely leave them even more astounded, unable to contain themselves.

Crack!

The Huangting blessed land rumbled continuously, as if digesting the entire Dazhou Xiyu Ji world.

Boom!

Soon after, at the center of the blessed land, heaven and earth trembled together, and a landscape of mountains and rivers, lakes and trees, and forests emerged, forming a miniature world.

Zhang Tianxiang, along with the surviving beings like the Jade Emperor Haotian, Linglong, and Miao Yi, stood on this newly formed land, staring in astonishment: “This is… Dazhou?”

Yet even Daojun, their current auras were no stronger than ordinary humans.

“Materializing a world, even if only a portion of its essence, requires an enormous amount of energy…”

Wu Ming looked at the rapidly depleting Yuanli Pool, his face clearly showing signs of regret at the cost.

This was his plan for saving the world!

Using the power of creation, he would manifest the essence of the entire Dazhou Xiyu Ji world and transfer it into the Huangting blessed land!

In the great calamity of the end of an era, those who could endure until the very end—whether human or other beings—must surely be the elite, those with the strongest sense of self. The weak had long been assimilated and scattered back into the heavens and earth.

And the famous mountains and rivers that had survived until the final moment must surely be spiritual veins, perhaps even possessing a spark of sentience.

To materialize the entire Dazhou Xiyu Ji world would be mere fantasy. Even if he devoted all the current world energy reserves, it wouldn’t be enough. But by selecting the elite seeds, paying a certain price, and transferring them into the Huangting blessed land, Wu Ming still had the confidence to do so.

Buzz!

The Huangting blessed land roared as, having received such a massive inheritance, it began to expand rapidly.

After all, Wu Ming wasn’t merely relocating several ten thousand people, but also famous mountains and rivers, spiritual herbs and trees, even flowers, birds, fish, insects, spirit beasts, and demons!

All of these now constituted the essence and cultural information of an entire world. After absorbing the essence of another world, how far would the Huangting blessed land grow?

Although Wu Ming didn’t know that many Celestial Immortals in the Dazhou world also used this method to enhance their own paradise’s foundation, the myriad paths lead to the same truth. He followed the laws of heaven and earth, choosing a path and method no different from other Celestial Immortals, albeit with an even grander hand.

As the blessed land expanded continuously, the previous Daojun’s insights also clarified his future path.

“A fifth-level Earth Immortal possesses a self-generated blessed land. To ascend to a Celestial Immortal, one must elevate the blessed land to the level of a cave heaven!”

“Moreover, a seventh-level Golden Immortal represents a world’s status. The most orthodox path is to further elevate one’s cave heaven, transforming it into a complete world that doesn’t need to draw nourishment from other worlds but can independently absorb the essence of chaos. If one can achieve this, the Celestial Immortal automatically gains the world’s status, following the orthodox path of a Golden Immortal!”

“My current main body is still an Earth Immortal. Although the Huangting blessed land is rich in foundation, it still needs gradual enhancement—first mountains and rivers, then vegetation, followed by flowers, birds, fish, insects, spirit beasts, and finally humans!”

“But now, in one fell swoop, although the Dazhou Xiyu Ji was illusory, it contained a complete cycle of all things, operating ceaselessly. I intercepted it all at once, and the blessed land immediately reached completion!”

As Wu Ming pondered, the Huangting blessed land trembled and immediately expanded to its limit.

“A blessed land can contain mountains and rivers, flowers, birds, fish, and insects!”

“But a cave heaven has the changes of the four seasons, the sun and moon, stars!”

“A self-contained world, needing nothing from outside!”

He laughed loudly: “Now that the blessed land is complete, where are the sun, moon, and stars?”

Boom!

The Huangting blessed land trembled, and suddenly, above the Nine Heavens’ gales, a blazing sun, a silver moon, and a sky full of stars emerged, alternating in their cycles.

With the addition of time’s sequence, the entire blessed land roared into action, initiating the most basic seasonal changes—resting and recuperating, with vegetation cycling through growth and decay.

This was no longer just a blessed land, but a cave heaven!

Once the cave heaven was achieved, a mighty force descended upon Wu Ming, connected to the Huangting cave heaven’s consciousness.

Crack!

Within his body, a certain barrier seemed to break, instantly elevating him to the sixth level of Celestial Immortal. Everything happened naturally, effortlessly, without the slightest hindrance.

“The path of the sixth level lies in mastering the primal forces of the world…”

Wu Ming closed his eyes slightly, feeling this now-familiar power, and smiled: “With my extensive experience, reaching this step today requires no adaptation period like ordinary immortals…”

At the sixth level, one can manipulate the primal forces of the world, each movement filled with immense power, something ordinary people can’t even begin to match!

Thus, below the sixth level, all are mere ants!

This step is incredibly difficult. Take Yuying of the same Fulong Court, who has diligently cultivated for centuries, nearly exhausting his lifespan, yet has not achieved it—this clearly shows its difficulty.

In the Dazhou world, any Celestial Immortal is a mighty figure, founding sects and protecting regions, a hidden hand orchestrating the rise and fall of emperors!

The power that others spend centuries striving for without success, Wu Ming easily obtained after only a few years of cultivation, enough to make so-called “genius cultivators” feel ashamed.

“Finally, I have achieved the path of a Celestial Immortal!”

Wu Ming’s face showed satisfaction. At this moment, the authority of a ruler made him feel the Huangting cave heaven expand rapidly, actually occupying about one-thousandth of the Main God’s Hall.

“Excellent… Previously, the proportion occupied by the Huangting blessed land was so small it couldn’t even be displayed…”

Wu Ming was overjoyed, as this meant that from now on, this one-thousandth portion of the Main God’s Hall space completely belonged to him—something even the Creator himself could not take away.

A thousand cave heavens? And this is even with the Main God Hall having been damaged once…

His eyes deepened, making him feel even more that the Creator was unfathomable.

At this moment, the Main God Hall flashed with light, and the information about Wu Ming began to update again:

[Name: Wu Ming]

[Cultivation Level: Celestial Immortal (6th level)]

[Blessed Land: Huangting Cave Heaven (part of the Main God Space)]

[Equipment: Spirit Beast Garden, Su Hou Pearl, Taotie Jiezi Bag]

[Unique Title: Sovereign]

[Main God Hall]

[Number of Reincarnators: One thousand nine hundred and seventy-eight!]

[Reincarnator Strength:

Level 1 Reincarnators: One thousand one hundred and twenty-six!

Level 2 Reincarnators: Eight hundred and nine!

Level 3 Reincarnators: Forty-one!

Level 4 Reincarnators: Two!]

[Explored Worlds: Star World, Spirit and Ghost World, Fusang World, Phantom Spirit World…]

[Primal Energy Reserve: Thirteen thousand five hundred and seventy-two units (Current capacity limit of the Primal Energy Pool: Fifty thousand units)]

[Buildings: Main God Hall, Primal Energy Pool, Da Luo Hall, Creation Hall]

“Hmm… Added more than three hundred new reincarnators, and three of them have actually reached the third level…”

Wu Ming stroked his chin: “Also… too much Primal Energy has been consumed…”

Originally, constructing the illusory paradise and selecting reincarnators to perform tasks didn’t require much Primal Energy.

But Wu Ming made a grand move at the end, actually manifesting the essence of the entire Dazhou Xiyu Ji world, effectively copying the entire ecosystem and cultural information and placing it into the Huangting blessed land.

Although this caused the blessed land to ascend rapidly, the consumption of world energy was immense.

Of course, compared to the benefits, it was still a great bargain.

“After all… not to mention the benefits of ascending to a Celestial Immortal… even those saved beings are top-tier elites, greatly enhancing the cave heaven’s foundation. Even selecting them as reincarnators would provide good seeds… although this will have to be postponed…”

In fact, Wu Ming had no intention of releasing any of the people in the cave heaven, not even necessarily allowing them to become reincarnators.

This could easily expose certain truths, unless in the future he became fearless, then it would be another matter.

As the master of the cave heaven, every move of those people was now under Wu Ming’s surveillance.

Observing how former wandering cultivators, even Daojun, transformed into ordinary humans struggling to build a civilization was actually quite entertaining.

Indeed!

Even Daojun, in their current state, were no more than ordinary humans, albeit with experience, allowing them to cultivate faster than ordinary people. But Wu Ming was not the slightest bit worried.

“Do they really think cultivation is purely a path of the mind, needing no external resources? Within the cave heaven, even an Earth Immortal cannot achieve true power, and a Zhenren Tian Shi would be the pinnacle…”

“And a Zhenren Tian Shi cannot even break through the cave heaven’s restrictions. In other words, unless I approve, even Daojun would be prisoners for life!”
