The problem of the ten spiritual bodies has been solved. The next step is to refine the ten grotto-heavens into Dao markers.

"If we want the beacons to reach the other shore, they must be as solid as a rock, unafraid of the erosion and battering of the forbidden sea of ​​suffering. Therefore, they must be tempered by the great laws of time, space, cause and effect, and destiny," Taiyin Shiyi said.

"Master, are there any similar ancient ruins or sites? If we could cultivate there, we would surely achieve twice the results with half the effort," Taiyang Shiyi asked the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy.

In terms of understanding of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the two Supreme Beings are absolutely second to none, far surpassing Shi Yi's two bodies.

The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy was in a good mood. He stroked his beard and replied with a smile, "You've come to the right person. I traveled the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths in my youth and know of many secret realms, many of which belong to the four categories you need."

“I also have many coordinates here, which may overlap with yours. Let’s discuss them first,” the Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy said.

The two supreme beings discussed each other's realms, exchanging locations of their secret realms, encompassing the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and even mentioning the Three Thousand Dao Provinces.

Shi Yi was overjoyed. Having two masters at the Supreme Dao level saved him a lot of trouble. If he had to search for them, he didn't know how long it would have taken. It seemed that his decision to contact the Grand Elders of the two academies as soon as he arrived was incredibly wise.

After confirming the location of the secret realm and ancient ruins, the two immediately set off with Shi Yi's double body.

"We should act quickly and set off as soon as possible. For now, the alien realms haven't launched a major attack, so they can't get here. However, the day when the enemy attacks is not far off. We need to hurry and seize every second," the Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy suggested.

The others naturally had no objections, and Shi Yi's twin bodies couldn't wait to get to the location and begin their cultivation.

The road ahead is unknown and shrouded in mystery; he will have to keep trying. In this situation, it is of course better to start as early as possible.

The four immediately set off, quietly disappearing into the distance without alerting any cultivators from the Immortal Academy. In a few flashes, they vanished into the horizon.

The two supreme beings were incredibly fast, their speed so fast that they swept across endless mountains and rivers in an instant.

The relics, secret realms, and ancient sites they possess are scattered throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. Being in the Boundless Heaven, they naturally have to start from the Boundless Heaven first.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the Immortal Abode beneath the Heavenly God Academy will open in six months. At that time, Taiyin Shen must return in time to avoid missing anything," the Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy murmured.

The others nodded.

The refinement of the Dao Mark is not something that can be completed in a short time; it requires a great deal of time. The Taiyin Body cannot afford to neglect one aspect and miss the Qilin Immortal Abode.

Their first stop was a very famous secret realm in the Boundless Heaven, known as the Immortal Cave.

Legend has it that the Immortal Cave was a cave dwelling created by a true immortal. The cave's master cultivated the Great Dao of Time and passed away within it, creating a terrifying field that enveloped that pure immortal land, causing the flow of time within the Immortal Cave to become abnormal and extremely chaotic.

Sometimes, a day spent inside the fairy cave can feel like a lifetime of change in the outside world; other times, a year can pass inside the fairy cave while only a cup of tea is needed in the outside world.

Throughout history, many cultivators have visited this place, seeking the immortal destiny that has existed in the cave for a thousand years and is only seven days away from the world.

A cultivator once found the legendary immortal cave and entered it in search of opportunities. In just a few days, this cultivator emerged from the cave, having transformed from a junior cultivator into an unparalleled powerhouse.

Of course, there are also negative examples. Some people stayed in the fairy cave for only a few days, while thousands of years had passed in the outside world. The world changed, and time changed. When they returned, they were still young, but their old friends had turned into a handful of yellow earth.

Some people went in and never came out again. Perhaps they died of old age inside, turning into a pile of bones, or perhaps they are still floating in the fairy cave, only able to emerge after a long time.

The biggest problem with this secret realm is its uncertainty; no one knows whether time will flow faster or slower after entering the Immortal Cave.

At this moment, the two elders arrived with Shi Yi's twin bodies.

This is a seemingly ordinary mountain range, shrouded in mist, covered with dense primeval forests, full of vitality and lush greenery. The so-called entrance to the fairy cave is located deep within the mountain range.

The four emerged from the void and arrived at a huge cave embedded in the earth.

"This is it. When I traveled here years ago, I heard the legend of the Immortal Cave and set off to explore it, but unfortunately I couldn't find it."

It is said that the actual location of the Immortal Cave is in the endless void turbulence, and no one can find its coordinates. Only this underground cave sometimes intersects with it, creating a spacetime rift. If a cultivator happens to encounter it, he can enter the Immortal Cave through the rift.

Whether we'll meet or not depends on luck," the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy said.

"Even if they are fortunate enough to encounter the so-called Immortal Cave, given the instability of time flow there, what if they encounter a slowdown? At that time, only a few days in the Immortal Cave will have passed in the outside world by tens of thousands of years," the Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy asked.

"There's no way around it. These kinds of secret realms are all uncertain. If you want to enter one and refine the Dao Beacon, you have to take this risk," the Holy Academy's Grand Elder replied helplessly.

“One of us will go in with them. If necessary, we can try to fight our way out.” The Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy looked thoughtful.

“Yes, but if the Immortal Cave is truly the Daoist temple of an immortal, it would be difficult for us to force our way out.” The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy nodded.

“Master, there’s no need to worry. I possess a treasure from the Time Domain that can protect me,” Sun Stone said.

Taiyin Shiyi also chimed in.

They possess many treasures, including the Future Dao Flower, the Taiji Diagram, the Ancient Lamp of Cause and Effect, and the Heavenly Fate Tortoise Shell, all of which Taiyin Shiyi obtained from the Immortal Ancient Flower Bud. In addition, they also possess the Samsara Disc, a chaotic treasure with its own consciousness.

Even if an accident occurs, such as when the flow of time slows down, one can still escape using the Wheel of Reincarnation.

It should be noted that one corner of the Four Corners Reincarnation Disc has already returned to the realm of immortality and can unleash the power of immortality.

Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy inquired carefully and confirmed that what Sun Stone Yi said was true before he was relieved.

“Let’s go then. In any case, it’s best if one of us goes in with you.” He made the decision.

The Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy naturally had no objections.

The four disappeared from the spot and reappeared deep underground.

The Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy and the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy each unleashed their immense divine senses, searching through the intricate underground caverns.

This underground cave is special. A faint mist hangs in the air, blocking the extension of cultivators' divine sense. Even the divine sense of supreme beings is compressed to a limited range. Because of this, many cultivators get lost in the underground cave, and some are even trapped deep inside and unable to get out.

Along the way, Shi Yi saw many road signs, all left behind by cultivators who had explored this place before.

After searching for a long time without finding anything, the two elders couldn't help but sigh. Could it be that Shi Yi was not destined for the Immortal Cave?
"Finding a spatial rift in such a vast underground cavern that suppresses divine consciousness is like finding a needle in a haystack; it's all down to luck," the Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy shook his head. At this moment, Taiyin Shiyi opened his palm, upon which swirling mist and surging Dao principles appeared, utterly mysterious. A tortoise shell emerged, engraved with strange patterns, seemingly destined by heaven, a concrete manifestation of fate, astonishing all who beheld it.

The two elders gasped in shock upon seeing this scene.

"A tortoise shell fragment? No, that thing was stolen by the alien realm; it couldn't possibly be in your hands." The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy muttered to himself in confusion.

“Master, this Heavenly Mandate Tortoise Shell has the same origin as the Immortal Tortoise Shell fragment stolen from the foreign realm. Both come from a powerful Xuanwu Clan member in the Immortal Dao Realm.”

However, this tortoise shell is even more extraordinary than those immortal tortoise shells, known as "Heaven's Mandate," capable of predicting heavenly secrets and bringing good fortune while avoiding misfortune," Taiyang Shiyi explained.

"The Heavenly Mandate Tortoise Shell? I see." The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy nodded.

As he spoke, the phantom of the Heavenly Fate Tortoise Shell was already tossed high into the air by Taiyin Shiyi. In an instant, the powers of time, space, destiny, and cause and effect overflowed from the forbidden sea of ​​suffering, forming a mist that enveloped his palm.

The Heavenly Mandate Tortoise Shell fell into the mist. After the mist dissipated, Taiyin Shiyi observed the hexagram. Taiyin Double Pupil quickly deduced the hexagram and soon confirmed a direction.

"follow me."

Taiyin Shiyi spoke up.

The two elders and Taiyang Shiyi immediately activated their escape techniques and followed.

Led by Taiyin Shiyi, the four of them continued deeper into the complex underground caverns, turning left and right.

Just as the two elders were wondering whether the so-called Destiny Tortoise Shell was reliable, a spatial rift quietly appeared in the void around the corner ahead, like a snow-white spider web.

"A rift in the Immortal Cave! We actually found it!" The two exclaimed in surprise.

"This is the legendary Immortal Cave Rift. Now that we've found it, let's proceed as planned: one person will lead them in, while the other waits outside to provide support."

Finally, the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy led the two into the temple. He was extremely accomplished in the path of magic in this world, with a strong physical body and unparalleled attack power. He might be able to play a miraculous role at a critical moment.

The Grand Elder of the Immortal Academy waited outside the crack.

"Buzz!"

With a flash of white light, the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy erected a protective shield to protect Shi Yi's two bodies as they entered the spatial rift.

At this moment, the three of them seemed to step into the river of time, and the surrounding space and time turned into tangible lines that kept receding. In just a moment, it felt as if millions of years had passed.

When the three of them came to their senses, they found themselves standing in a world brimming with celestial light.

The place is filled with ethereal mist and the environment is breathtakingly beautiful, as if you've arrived at the legendary homeland of immortals.

"The rumors are indeed true; this is a rare and pure land for immortals," the Grand Elder of the Holy Academy remarked.

He then carefully sensed the flow of time here, trying to confirm the speed of time.

However, being in the Pure Land of Immortals, enveloped by the temporal field, they could not perceive any abnormality at all.

The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy frowned slightly. If they couldn't confirm the flow of time, what if a few days passed inside while thousands of years passed outside? By the time they got out, it would be too late.

At this moment, Taiyin Shiyi made his move, using his reliance on the Forbidden Sea of ​​Bitterness—the Flower of the Future Dao.

No matter what environment he is in, the Forbidden Sea of ​​Suffering remains unaffected, meaning that Shi Yi has an absolutely reliable reference point.

"The current flow of time is accelerating compared to the outside world, by about... ten thousand times."

The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy had no doubts about Taiyin Shiyi's words; the previous incident with the Heavenly Mandate Tortoise Shell was enough to convince him.

"Ten thousand times? That means thirty years here are only one day in the outside world?" The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy exclaimed in amazement. Is this the work of a celestial being? It's truly astonishing.

Of course, compared to the fact that seven days in the cave is equivalent to a thousand years in the world, this ratio is nothing.

"It's a pity that there's only the Great Dao of Time and Space, but no cause and effect, or destiny. Otherwise, we could have continued our seclusion here indefinitely," Sun Stone sighed.

"This acceleration is unstable and still changing. It might turn around soon. We shouldn't delay, let's get started," Taiyin Shiyi reminded him.

Perhaps because this era is about to end, and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are about to merge, the secret realm of the Immortal Cave has changed and is no longer as stable as before. The beginnings of the Dharma-ending Age are emerging, and they must hurry up.

Taiyang Shiyi nodded.

The three immediately split up to explore this celestial paradise. Soon after, they found a magnificent celestial palace and, after some exploration, gained many opportunities.

For example, there is a garden of immortal herbs, which is shrouded in the terrifying Great Dao of Time, making it difficult for ordinary people to approach. In the past, cultivators who entered the Immortal Cave could only sigh in vain at the garden, unable to seize the opportunities within.

The Grand Elder of the Holy Academy tried to seize it by force, but found it impossible. That was the work of an immortal being, not something that a being from the human realm could touch. In particular, he was not at his peak, and his life force was exhausted. If it were Meng Tianzheng who came and went all out regardless of the consequences, there might be a sliver of hope.

In the end, he sighed and could only wait and see if Taiyin Shiyi had any other options.

Taiyin Shiyi used the power of the Future Dao Flower and found it feasible. The Future Dao Flower was the best ferry, but his magic power was too weak and he could not exert much power, which was too dangerous.

Fortunately, this place is special, and the use of the Reincarnation Disc will not attract the attention of forbidden beings.

The Wheel of Reincarnation slowly awoke, instantly understanding its surroundings.

"This is... the Daoist temple of the Emperor of Time? You are very lucky to have found this place."

"The Emperor of Time?" Taiyin Shiyi was surprised. He originally thought this was just a cave dwelling left by a True Immortal cultivator who focused on the Great Dao of Time in the Immortal Ancient Era. Who would have thought that it was actually an Emperor.

Historically, none of those who could be called "Emperor" were simple; only the strongest beings could bear such a title.

In other words, this place is the Daoist temple left behind by a Celestial King who specializes in the Great Dao of Time.
"Hmm, Emperor of Time, this being vanished long ago. During the Immortal Ancient Era, countless cultivators searched for his final resting place, but all returned empty-handed. It seems that the Great Calamity of the Immortal Ancient Era, with the Primordial Ancient Realm shattered, allowed his cave to appear in the mortal world," the Reincarnation Disc explained in detail.
