The man was devouring, but the system was in the primordial world.

"Ancestor Hongyun, I never expected to be saved by this person."

Bai'e looked at the content on the screen with a complex expression, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

Because the other party had absolutely no reason to do that!

Although both the Nine Heavens Cloud Spirit and the Red Cloud Ancestor have the character "cloud" in their names, their innate backgrounds are worlds apart. Similarly, the Cloud Spirit and the Innate Saint are not comparable.

This relationship can be described as having the same origin, and it's also possible to draw a clear line between them.

But the Old Ancestor Hongyun still saved people!

At the crucial juncture of hearing the truth, one must stop and act; a single step can mean the difference between heaven and earth.

"Unfortunately, even the best interpersonal relationships can't withstand the temptation of profit... Death absolves all debts... Indeed, the Western Religion is a bunch of shameless scoundrels..."

White Cree shook his head and continued looking down.

You awaken in a celestial cave dwelling filled with flowing clouds.

This mountain connects to the vast Milky Way above and extends to the four seas and eight wastelands below; wherever the clouds flow, it becomes a sacred mountain.

You did not venture into the mountains rashly.

The master is away and his return is unknown. You have been indebted to him, so it is not right for you to act like a vicious wolf in Zhongshan and run amok in his sanctuary.

Fortunately, you don't have high requirements for your spiritual practice environment.

This place, nestled amidst clouds and mountains, possesses an exceptionally refined aura of feng shui and the Dao of Clouds. Since you share the same origin as it, your cultivation will naturally be twice as effective.

Three thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

One day, while you were cultivating in seclusion on Fushan Mountain, you suddenly sensed a fluctuation of spiritual energy coming from the east. You immediately got up to greet it and saw not only the great power who had saved you before, but also another majestic Taoist with a flowing beard.

The powerful figure who saved you called himself the Ancestor of Red Clouds, and then pulled over a Taoist priest to tell you that this was his close friend, Zhen Yuanzi.

You quickly greeted the two people and thanked them for saving your life. After all, if it weren't for them, you would probably have already turned into a wisp of steam and vanished into the world.

[Ancestor Hongyun did not take credit for this, but was merely impressed by your pure and unblemished achievements, and even while temporarily residing in Yunshan, you did not forget to use the cicada's divine wind to cultivate your spiritual energy.]

He has decided to take you as his apprentice.

Knowing full well that this was an immense opportunity, you immediately bowed and became the first disciple of Ancestor Hongyun.

"This is a bad start..."

Seeing his successful apprenticeship displayed on the screen, Bai'e's eyes lit up.

How lucky!

Having become an apprentice of Ancestor Hongyun and then coincidentally encountering Zhen Yuanzi, it would be a disservice to these two great masters not to accept some good gifts.

Once the master-disciple ceremony was completed, Ancestor Hongyun immediately inquired about your cultivation.

Knowing that you specialize in the spiritual energy of all things and have mastered the Cicada's Divine Wind, he specially taught you the "Treasury of Myriad Winds" and bestowed upon you a mid-grade acquired spiritual treasure, the Heavenly Rainbow Robe.

[Ancestor Hongyun then looked at Zhen Yuanzi beside him]

Zhen Yuanzi smiled knowingly, took out his usual ginseng fruit, and also gifted a mid-grade acquired spiritual treasure, the Wind-Slaying Sword.

[You shall accept the treasure and immediately follow your teacher's instructions to open up a cave dwelling and begin cultivating the "Ten Thousand Winds Treasure Record" to solidify your foundation.]

As for the two powerful beings, they went to the distant Immortal Cave in the Clouds to verify and understand each other's insights, attempting to fully utilize all the knowledge they had gained from listening to the teachings.

Your days have become more leisurely.

【While Yunshan lacks the natural disasters of the Nine Heavens Palace, one can sense the pulse of the Great Dao. Cultivating in this blessed land will allow your realm to advance by leaps and bounds.】

You have broken through to the true immortal realm.

[You absorbed the myriad wondrous cloud energy into your body, primarily cultivating the Cicada's Knowledge Divine Wind, supplemented by other divine winds, cultivating day and night, and finally fused the ten innate divine winds into one, gaining the combat power to defy the Xuanxian.]

You have broken through to the Mystic Immortal Realm.

[You began refining the ginseng fruit bestowed by Zhen Yuanzi to increase your magical power, and soon broke through from the initial stage of the Profound Immortal realm to the peak of the Profound Immortal realm.]

With your cultivation level combined with supernatural abilities and spiritual treasures, your strength has almost reached the pinnacle below the Golden Immortal realm.

However, it is not easy for the true spirit to transcend.

The Golden Immortal's lifespan is equal to that of Heaven, a crucial hurdle in cultivation. Your foundation is insufficient; though your heart is sincere, you cannot overcome the limitations of Heaven and Earth.

You went to the Cloud Cave to see your teacher.

[Ancestor Hongyun, with his keen insight, saw through your situation at a glance. After careful consideration, he ultimately offered two solutions.]

The first method is to refine the innate essence.

Whether it's a spiritual treasure or a spiritual root, as long as the foundation is improved, your chances of breaking through will increase. Even if you fail, it won't have a significant impact.

[You only know about your own teacher's situation]

[He possesses very few treasures; he himself has barely seen any innate spiritual treasures, let alone offering you an unrefined innate spiritual treasure to help you break through to the Golden Immortal realm.]

You decide to try the second method.

Since ancient times, Heaven has favored those who possess great merit, whose calamities are eliminated and whose cultivation gradually increases. The second method given by Ancestor Hongyun is to break through calamities through merit.

In the past, the three clans of Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin fought each other, and the struggle between the Dao and the Demonic caused the western lands to sink. The battles brought terrible wounds to the primordial land.

Restoring the mountains and rivers is the fastest way to earn merit.

【However, you cultivate wind-based supernatural powers, which allow you to control the withering and flourishing of plants, but you know nothing about how to repair the earth's veins.】

At this moment, Zhen Yuanzi, who had been silent all along, spoke up.

He first showed you his companion spirit artifact, the "Book of Earth," and then taught you how to connect the earth's veins and unblock water sources.

Upon seeing this, Bai'er couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth into a smile.

"I'm really lucky this time. Not only did I successfully latch onto a powerful figure, but they even arranged the entire route for me."

Don't say that Hongyun will be robbed!

Hongyun's ordeal occurred after he had given three sermons and obtained the Primordial Purple Qi. At this stage, he and Zhen Yuanzi are the most responsible teachers in the prehistoric world.

But now that things have come to this, surely he should be able to break through to the Golden Immortal realm this time?

Let's continue looking down at the chalk.

You left Yunshan.

[Upon first entering this primordial land, you are curious about everything, leading to many humorous situations. However, you soon remember your mission.]

[Repairing mountains and rivers, accumulating merit]

[Following the methods taught by Zhen Yuanzi, you reconnected the broken earth veins and cleared the blocked water sources, practicing diligently day and night without ceasing, and quickly accumulated a great deal of merit.]

Similarly, you also experienced the benefits of accumulating merit.

Merit can sharpen your mind, allowing you to perceive the universe more clearly. It can even help you avoid unnecessary trouble.

Your spiritual practice has become exceptionally smooth.

Previously incomprehensible questions were easily resolved, and with increased understanding, your mastery of the Cicada's Divine Wind has achieved another breakthrough.

A gentle breeze brings spring to all trees.

[After its breakthrough, the Cicada's Divine Wind officially transformed into a Golden Immortal-level divine power. It can be used for attack, defense, and even healing injuries... In an accident, you encountered a remnant of a Chaos Beast at the Golden Immortal level, but with the help of the Cicada's Divine Wind, you managed to kill it.]

Your repair work has become much smoother.

By connecting with the earth's veins, clearing water sources, and spreading life, you will soon accumulate enough merit to elevate your true spirit to immortality.

You have successfully broken through to the Golden Immortal realm.
