The King of Black Fog

Yang Qinglan raised her hand and wiped, unfolding the Constant Sand World before everyone, with swirling clouds forming a passage.

The four of them stepped inside.

As they finished walking through the cloud passage, their vision slightly brightened, and they found themselves standing on a certain cloud top.

Looking around, mythical golden lines were outlining the forms of all things—

Golden lines wound through, mountains took shape; a golden trench was plowed on the ground, with river waters rushing in like a flood.

Golden lines suddenly rose from the ground, bursting open in a certain clearing, the soil covered with gravel, trees climbing higher in the shimmering golden light.

A larger golden particle hovered between the branches of a tree, while an adult squirrel with three baby squirrels ran past.

The deep forest revealed deer, a roaring tiger, a rabbit bolting away, and a wild boar being hunted.

Seemingly startled by these suddenly appearing lives, the exploding golden light regrouped with the breeze and surged afar, leaving behind bamboo groves, fruit trees, mountain flowers, wild grass...

The four stood at a distance, watching this creation myth-like scene.

When the golden light suddenly vanished, in front of them lay a beautiful landscape of 20 square kilometers, with roughly 7 kilometers of water surface.

Li Changzhou, Li Qianxia, and Turquoise Pool were unconsciously pushed back by Yang Qinglan's invisible aura.

She stood alone on the cloud top, at the world's center, celestial music and true words chanted together, her robes fluttering.

All the essence of energy rose upward, converging above her head, forming a cloud platform of about one acre in size.

Boom!

Above the void-filled fog, five channels burst open again, thunder fire, golden wind, flame sun, true water, and breathe soil, with cascading spiritual energy pouring onto the cloud platform.

On the cloud platform surged black and white paths of yin-yang qi, playfully swimming like fish.

Four streams of light flew up from Yang Qinglan, landing on the cloud platform, namely "Fairy's Ruyi", "Little Jade Cauldron", "Dawn Mirror", "Candle".

Nourished by the vast spiritual energy, the four items exuded the brilliance of supreme magic treasures.

With the Five Elements returning to Yuan, an overwhelming pressure descended, causing Li Changzhou, Li Qianxia, and Turquoise Pool to take another step back.

Suddenly, the mountain-like aura disappeared, the Five Elements vanished, leaving only an acre-sized cloud platform, gently resonating, emitting seven-color brilliance, hovering like a canopy above Yang Qinglan.

Immediately following, the acre-sized cloud platform rapidly shrank, flowing into Yang Qinglan's Dantian palace.

Her body emitted a layer of clear radiance, and in the opening and closing of her eyes, yin-yang qi flowed, her fairy-like figure graceful and delicate.

The three approached, and Li Changzhou asked, "How does it feel?"

Yang Qinglan's eyelids slightly drooped, then lifted again, "Added ten thousand years of mana."

A nine-thousand-year Flat Peach can add a thousand years of mana to an Earth Immortal, but the speed of an Earth Immortal evolving the Constant Sand World cannot keep up, this thousand years of mana is one-time, like Li Changzhou using it to perform "Black Fog·Time Stop".

But the Constant Sand World Fruit directly evolves the world, fundamentally enhancing the Earth Immortal's mana.

The Flat Peach is like a bucket of water being poured down, just catch it if you can, the Constant Sand World Fruit simultaneously pours several buckets of water while also supporting the barrel to catch all these buckets.

"One fruit, ten thousand years, just to the Buddha's standard, everyone needs nine fruits, totaling thirty-six fruits, one fruit needs ten days to grow, thirty-six fruits is three hundred sixty days, that's almost a year!" Li Qianxia calculated.

"More than a year." Li Changzhou almost rolled his eyes.

Real-time is ten days, actually the "Rooted" process to yield one Constant Sand World Fruit takes a thousand years.

"Also consider the consumption," Turquoise Pool contemplated, "nine thousand-year Flat Peaches are gone, only Qi radiance, Jade Liquid, and Jade Dew can replace, which isn't fast to replenish mana, and might not be enough."

"Dawn Mirror can restore mana," Yang Qinglan said.

"My Flame Butterfly can too!" Li Qianxia added.

"If only I had eaten it first, with ten thousand years of mana, I could spew several puffs of black smoke at once." Li Changzhou reflected.

"Oh! I remember something," Li Qianxia suddenly thought, "Si sister's Divine Race friend has a skill for unlimited mana in a short time, if we could get that person to help—"

She looked at the three.

The three thought for a moment and agreed.

The only problem was, back then Li Changzhou was an Immortal, capable of unlimited mana, now it's unclear if it would still work.

However, between an Immortal and an Earth Immortal, especially with a newly advanced Earth Immortal, there's not much difference, Li Changzhou compared to when he was an Immortal, had relatively limited mana increase, just gained a Constant Sand World as a refuge.

Damn, after gaining Constant Sand World, never used it!

Once became a mortal, battling in the icy world with Great Strength, like a wizard from Hogwarts;

Once lost memory, using Huan Clan's power to chase a transport ship in the starry sky.

Guanyin: [...Aren't you excited?]

[Excited about what?] Li Changzhou wondered.

[This is, it's a heavenly treasure directly enhancing ten thousand years of mana for an Earth Immortal!]

[Hmm...]

With this said, indeed a bit of excitement should arise, but just according to Li Changzhou's own feeling, his efforts completely match his gains.

Moreover, it's the value game era, how is it possible to spend thousands or tens of thousands of years to enhance a realm like in ancient times?

Before the Constant Sand World Fruit appeared, Li Changzhou might have thought, it would be reluctantly acceptable for the four to take a year to reach Earth Immortal Perfection, but after the Constant Sand World Fruit appeared, he felt a year was too long.

A year...

If a Player obtained the Divine Will Crystal, one could become a Heavenly Immortal in a second, though a flawed Heavenly Immortal, it is still a Heavenly Immortal.

This is still known methods, about how many players in the endless universe, how many similar Divine Will Crystals, or even more astonishing tools than Divine Will Crystals, no one knows.
