Forging Immortality through the Dao Seed

"Here?"

Zhang Jing couldn't help but look around, finding the location to be quite suitable.

It was incredibly serene, with a rich presence of Immortal Spirit Qi.

Indeed, an ideal place for cultivation.

He looked at Feng Wuyu, nodded with a smile, and said in a soft voice:

"Thanks for the trouble, Senior Brother. Let it be here."

"Ha-ha, good choice, Junior Brother!"

Seeing Zhang Jing's agreement,

Feng Wuyu's face revealed a meaningful smile.

He waved his hand lightly, and bronze divine light swept across a certain area in front,

In an instant,

Wrinkles appeared in the void, and suddenly a spring eye sprung up.

The spring eye endlessly gushed out crystal clear treasure liquid, causing the Immortal Spirit Qi of this place to condense at an exaggerated speed.

"Senior Brother, what is this?"

Zhang Jing pointed to the spring eye that suddenly appeared, asking in astonishment.

"Ha-ha, this is a channel for the Cave Heaven to refine chaos and produce Immortal Spirit Qi, which we also call 'Spiritual Spring'. Consider it one of the specialties of Cave Heaven."

"I discovered it three thousand years ago, but unfortunately, the Immortal Island had already been established and its position couldn't be moved, so I had no choice but to hide it, in order to avoid benefiting those from the Heavenly Realm lineage."

"Now, it serves as a gift for you to celebrate your joining the Grand Brightness Cave Heaven."

Feng Wuyu said, laughing.

"Thank you for your care, Senior Brother."

Zhang Jing swiftly expressed his gratitude.

"Junior Brother, no need to be so polite. We are from the same Nine Domains lineage, it's only right we take care of each other. By the way, you can take out your Red Seal now. Activate it with your Divine Sense and silently meditate its position in your mind."

Feng Wuyu urged him.

Upon hearing this,

Zhang Jing took out the red seal, and following the instructions, slowly activated it with his Divine Sense.

The next moment,

Boom —

A sound like muffled thunder resounded.

The light within hundreds of feet suddenly disappeared.

Black cracks began to appear, with gray breath gushing out from these black cracks, which, under the influence of some special power, turned into earth, stones, and gravel, eventually condensing slowly into an Immortal Island.

The Immortal Island continued to expand outward.

Zhang Jing rapidly retreated.

Time trickled by.

The black void cracks gradually disappeared one by one.

And before his eyes,

A new Immortal Island appeared, irregular and round, spanning about five thousand miles. It has mountains crisscrossed, plains, forests, and valleys and rivers.

In the middle of the Immortal Island, in a valley,

A calm Spiritual Spring quietly appeared, which turned into a small lake in an instant, emanating an extremely dense Immortal Spirit Qi.

The greenery around it spread at a visible pace.

...

At the Spiritual Spring on the Immortal Island,

Feng Wuyu and Zhang Jing sat on the ground.

A hint of impatience could be seen on Feng Wuyu's face.

"Junior Brother, I have something that requires me to leave Cave Heaven for a while, so I will make this brief, listen well."

"Please go ahead, Senior Brother."

Zhang Jing showed a serious expression on his face.

Seeing this, Feng Wuyu paused thoughtfully as if organizing his words.

Then he said:

"First of all, your White Deer mount's bloodline most likely originates from the Primordial Living Spirit, the Nine-colored Deer. It's likely that when one of its ancestors was giving birth to a fawn, it unintentionally sensed a trace of Dao mark left by the Nine-Colored Deer. Although such cases are rare, they are not non-existent."

"The legacy of the Nine-Colored Deer, its Nine-colored Divine Light, is in the Secret Realm of Dao Treasury. In the future, you can consider helping it redeem cultivation, who knows, it might become your helper in the future."

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother. I understand. But... this secret realm of Dao Treasury?"

Zhang Jing had a puzzled expression on his face.

Feng Wuyu chuckled and said directly:

"That's what I'm going to tell you next. It's the most important thing — The Streaming Light Immortal Realm! The master should have given you permission to enter the Immortal Realm."

Zhang Jing nodded slowly.

"The Streaming Light Immortal Realm is a special world created by an elder ancestor of our Boundless Tai Yi Taoist Gate, it is neither existent nor non-existent, seeming to exist yet not, mysterious and boundless. It is the primary cultivation place for tens of thousands of disciples of the Taoist Gate."

"The Secret Realm of Dao Treasury is located within, and you can exchange various legacies from Taiyi Sect with luck."

"As for luck, you can consider it to be similar to the Tao Merits of your Dao Institute, but it is far more profound than Tao Merits. From what I know, luck is the most crucial thing at the level of our master!"

"And the casting to the Lower Realm I mentioned earlier also exists within the Glittering Immortal Realm and likewise requires luck movement."

"In conclusion, all your future cultivation is inseparable from the Glittering Immortal Realm!"

"That's all Senior Brother will tell you for now. The rest is up to you, Junior Brother, to explore. Always remember, luck movement is the key; don't squander it recklessly!"

Having said this,

Feng Wuyu got up, preparing to leave.

Upon seeing this,

Zhang Jing hurriedly stood and said gratefully:

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother!"

However,

As soon as he had spoken,

Feng Wuyu turned back again.

He reached into his armpit with his right hand and directly pulled out a bronze lock chain about three feet long, then handed it to Zhang Jing.

"Junior Brother, that spiritual spring was something Senior Brother thought of on a whim. This dog...ahem, Immortal Binding Chain, was the gift Senior Brother prepared for you beforehand. You take it first."

"However, with your current cultivation level, even with my help, it would still be too difficult for you to refine. Let's wait until you reach the Golden Core or Dharma Phase stage."

"Also, you should expect disciples from our Nine Domains Lineage to visit you in the future. It's not a bad thing to get to know them more, so you can ask them if you have any questions."

Feng Wuyu taught patiently, as if he was concerned.

"I understand, thank you, Senior Brother."

Zhang Jing responded with a smile.

"Haha, well then, I'll take my leave first."

...

Time drifted away quietly.

Lu 38 had recovered and was frantically inspecting the Immortal Island.

Zhang Jing didn't bother about him.

Taking advantage of this free time.

He constructed a small palace using spells next to the Spiritual Spring.

Though it was not extravagant, it was functional.

At least he didn't have to expose himself to the elements anymore.

One day.

Zhang Jing on the mat slowly closed his eyes, quietly understanding the cultivation essentials of the Primitive Genesis Derivative World Path that True Monarch Yuanming had imparted.

To follow the Derivative World Path,

The Primordial Dao Foundation needs to fuse thirty-six kinds of Tao Intent including Yin and Yang, Five Elements, wind, thunder, marsh, etc. in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

When breaking through to the Golden Core Realm, one could condense a Great Divine Power -Innate Yuanming Divine Light.

Then, during your Golden Core Realm,

Three hundred and sixty-five kinds of basic Tao Intent, corresponding to the revolutions of the Tao Sect's Heaven's cycle, should be combined in the Innate Primordial Golden Elixir, resulting in the emergence of nine more Great Divine Powers.

"Sigh..."

At this point,

Zhang Jing couldn't help but gasp.

Just the cultivation methods of the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core Realms were enough to make his scalp tingle.

After a pause,

Phew!

Zhang Jing exhaled a turbid breath reluctantly.

No wonder his own mentor, who is a Heavenly True Monarch, repeatedly emphasized the difficulty of achieving the Primitive Genesis Derivative World Path.

However-

Zhang Jing couldn't help thinking about the introductory descriptions of the Innate Yuanming Divine Light, a great divine ability in the cultivation essentials taught by his mentor.

The Innate Yuanming Divine Light, with a single thought, it can create voids and bring forth Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water!

Although the cultivation difficulty is high,

The power it brings is truly formidable.

Who wouldn't be tempted?

Moreover,

With the blessing of the Mysterious Jade Token and the Dao Yuan Celebratory Cloud Dharma Seeds, it appears that the Derivative World Path is not impossible for Zhang Jing to achieve.

After a long while,

Zhang Jing slowly opened his eyes, his gaze as clear as ever.

"The legacy of three hundred and sixty-five types of basic Tao Intents and all kinds of Great Dao from the Immortal Gate are all in the Dao Secret Realm within the Glittering Immortal Realm? In that case, I should visit the Glittering Immortal Realm."

A thought crossed his mind,

A chaos-coloured Dharma seal slowly appeared between Zhang Jing's eyebrows.

In a twinkling,

He had an indescribable feeling,

As if, whenever he wanted, he could enter another world, a world so vast that it was beyond belief.
