Primordial Era: Starting with the repair of Penglai Immortal Island

Di Jun nodded. "How long will it take to produce a sufficient number of pseudo-Da Luo?" Di Jun asked again.

Fuxi manipulated the Hetu and Luoshu diagrams to deduce the secrets, and streaks of heavenly Dao patterns flickered and moved.

A moment later, he opened his eyes: "If the amount of Emperor's Dew is sufficient, ten thousand years is enough to replenish the Grand Luo Golden Immortals required for the Great Array."

"What will be the price?" This was the question that Di Jun was most concerned about.

Fuxi did not answer the question, but instead turned his gaze to Xihe, the Heavenly Queen.

All the demons in the hall followed Fuxi's gaze...!

A smile appeared on Xihe's face, and she said softly, "The process of condensing the Emperor's Essence does not consume our own essence, but rather the stellar power that the Sun, Moon, and all the stars in the heavens should have cast upon the primordial land."

She pointed to the sky outside the hall: "The Sun Star and the Moon Star were formed from the eyes of the Great God Pangu. Their origin is almost infinite. If it is only to condense the Emperor's Essence, we need to guide, harmonize, and condense it at all times with our Quasi-Saint cultivation. This process will not harm our foundation."

Xihe paused slightly, turning her gaze to Dijun and Changxi beside her: "But to satisfy the endless creatures of the primordial land, we must continuously use our supernatural powers without stopping for a moment."

At this moment, Changxi added, "To be precise, the stellar power consumed in condensing each drop of Emperor's Essence should have been evenly distributed across the primordial land. If it were to be continuously condensed for ten thousand years...!"

After pondering for a moment, Changxi said, "The Emperor's Dew requires far less solar power than the power of the Moon and the stars, so it won't have a significant impact on the sun. However, the stellar power that the Moon and the stars shower upon the primordial land will be affected, reduced by a large portion?"

However, Changxi did not mention that this part of the star power that should have been absorbed by all living beings in the primordial world was intercepted by them and condensed into Emperor's Dew. This part of the cause and effect should be borne by Xihe and Changxi!

Di Jun grasped Xi He's hand, then looked at Chang Xi. Both celestial empresses had unwavering resolve in their eyes—they were willing to pay this price for the sake of the demon race.

"The continued interception of the celestial power will also cause the stars to dim," Fuxi added. "In the next 100,000 years, the nights in the primordial world will become 30% darker than before. This may affect some beings who rely on stellar power for cultivation."

"We can't worry about that now," Taiyi said in a deep voice. "The Witch Clan won't give us any more time."

Di Jun, Tai Yi, the two Heavenly Empresses, Fu Xi, Kun Peng, and the Ten Demon Saints joined forces to repeatedly calculate every detail of the entire plan.

From the condensation of the Emperor's Dew to the control of its timing and range; from the array arrangement of the reception platform to the enclosure of the first layer of heavenly secrets, the "breeding ground for Gu"; and even including how to shield the heavenly secrets to prevent the witch clan or other powerful beings from detecting them in advance.

......

The stars shone exceptionally brightly that night, with the moon hanging high in the sky, its light like a silver veil covering the mountains and rivers.

But if a great being looked up and looked closely, they would find that the moonlight contained countless tiny specks of light... as the moonlight fell upon the earth!

At the edge of the Kunlun Mountains, a streak of yellow light streaked across the sky.

Huanglong is currently on his way to the East Sea to congratulate his Uncle Tongtian on establishing a new Daoist temple, and also to catch a sage preach!

However, there was still some time before the centennial of Tongtian's sermon, so he was not in a hurry to open a spatial passage to travel.

After celebrating his senior brother Guang Chengzi's breakthrough to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm in Kunlun Mountain, he brought months of abundant rain to Kunlun, allowing the spiritual plants in the entire Kunlun region to recover to 30% of their previous levels.

Huanglong then took out a portion of the acquired spiritual roots he had traded with the Wu Clan from his Xuanhuang Realm and planted them in the Daoist temple with Ziling. After ensuring that they would not drop in rank again, he handed them all over to Ziling to take care of.

As for the two innate spiritual roots, he did not take them out. Now that the three masters have separated, the disciples will not stay in Kunlun for long. He needs to find a new place to practice!

As Huanglong flew away from Kunlun, he admired the scenery below while releasing his primordial spirit power to sense the things that were connected to him.

Suddenly, he realized something and looked up at the sky.

The full moon was undergoing a strange change—its light was no longer falling evenly, but instead began to condense into drops of crystal-clear liquid.

The liquids fell slowly in mid-air, each drop radiating a soft, silvery-white glow, with faint golden and purple starlight visible within.

"This is...!" Huang Long narrowed his eyes, fully activating his spiritual senses as a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

He "saw" more: those droplets contained the pure essence of stars, which was of great benefit to ordinary living beings, and even to Golden Immortal cultivators.

But deep within the droplet, Huanglong also discovered a set of extremely obscure cultivation methods.

The method exuded a strange aura of devouring, and although it was enveloped and concealed by the origin of the stars, it could not escape Huanglong's perception.

"Demon Core Technique? No, it's more refined and powerful than the Demon Core Technique; it's been improved?"

"They can actually connect directly to the Great Luo Realm...!" Huanglong frowned. "What are the demon race up to?"

He stopped his escape light, hovering in mid-air, watching the "Emperor's Dew" rain down on the earth.

The first drop of imperial nectar fell on an ancient pine tree that was thousands of years old.

The ancient pine tree was originally full of spiritual energy and already had a trace of spirituality, but it still needed a long time to accumulate before it could fully develop its intelligence and become a living being.

But the instant the Emperor's sap seeped into the tree trunk, the primordial essence of the stars enveloped that trace of spirituality. Moments later, the ancient pine trembled violently, its unique aura spreading outwards. Its branches moved without wind, and a wisp of thought flowed through it: "Cultivation... Devouring... Ascension!"

The second drop of imperial nectar fell into the mountain stream and was swallowed by a koi carp.

The koi tumbled in the water, its scales began to molt, and two small black bumps bulged on its head, as if horns were about to grow out.

It leaped out of the water and hovered in the air, devouring the imperial liquid falling from the sky. It swallowed all the imperial liquid in the air above this area of ​​water before falling back into the water.

Three drops, four drops, five drops...!

Where the Emperor's dew fell, all living things with spirit—mountains, rivers, grasses, trees, birds, beasts, insects, and fish—had their intelligence awakened on this night.

On the vast, untamed land, billions of nascent consciousnesses awakened simultaneously. They looked up at the moon and instinctively opened their mouths to receive more imperial dew.

Huanglong saw a white fox swallow a few drops of the Emperor's Essence and grow a second tail; he saw a rock absorb the Emperor's Essence and grow legs; he saw a clump of purple bamboo swaying in the moonlight, with natural runes beginning to condense on its joints...

In this one night, countless more living beings appeared in the entire primordial world.

Huanglong captured a drop of imperial nectar, which floated in front of him, and carefully examined and deduced its properties.

"To condense this Imperial Elixir, formed from the essence of the moon and sun combined with the power of the celestial bodies, to awaken the spiritual potential of countless beings—this is truly a meritorious act...!"
