A journey through immortal realms begins with a phantom tale.

The Spirit Realm is a special world where only black and white exist.

Luo Cheng was quite unaccustomed to the Spirit Realm when he first arrived.

Generally speaking, only spirits can enter the spirit realm. In addition, demon cultivators who have practiced special techniques and those who cultivate divinity can also enter the spirit realm.

God is a life form of an extremely high level.

Cultivating divinity is the process of evolving from a mortal body to a divine body.

Luo Cheng tried to sense the difference between his divine body in the Spirit Realm and other worlds. In his perception, his divine body felt compressed in the Spirit Realm. It was as if he had descended from three-dimensional spacetime to two-dimensional spacetime; to put it another way, it felt like being compressed into a piece of paper.

Of course, this is just a feeling.

Luo Cheng's eyes are divine eyes. Under the observation of these divine eyes, the whole world appears round, rich, and layered.

As Luo Cheng pondered the problem, a cute elf flew over; it was Mei'er.

When Mei'er saw Li Qiang, she immediately threw herself into his arms.

"Brother, you've finally come to see me."

"Mei'er, have you been diligently cultivating?"

"Of course, look at me, I'm almost an immortal."

Indeed, Mei'er has made great progress.

Now, the two Venerable Spirits and Ghosts have ascended to the Immortal Realm. In the Spirit and Ghost Realm, as long as one cultivates to the level of a Ghost Immortal or Spirit Immortal, one can transform the ethereal into the real, achieve an immortal body, and ascend to the Immortal Realm.

After the two Spirit and Ghost Venerables ascended to immortality, Mei'er became the ruler of the Spirit and Ghost Realm.

However, Luo Cheng didn't see Ling Baihui. In the original story, Ling Baihui was a demon cultivator and a close friend of Mei'er. This led Luo Cheng to speculate that Ling Baihui had ascended to the demon realm?

Unlike other spirits, Mei'er appeared to Luo Cheng just like a normal human. Other spirits and ghosts were black and white, and seemed rather dull.

Luo Cheng pondered for a moment, then smiled slightly, "Mei'er, have you forgotten me again?"

"No way! They've always remembered Brother Luo."

Luo Cheng took out a small, exquisite magical artifact and handed it to Mei'er, saying, "This is for you."

"Great, thank you, Brother Luo."

Mei'er loves treasures, and because of this love, she ventured into the ruins of a Buddhist temple. Her body was destroyed, and she was transformed into a spirit. Now, she can only follow the path of spiritual cultivation.

Then, Mei'er asked, "Brother, what are you doing in the Spirit Realm?"

Li Qiang laughed, "Of course I came to see you!"

"I don't believe it!"

Luo Cheng said, "I know there is a passage between the Spirit Realm and the Demon Realm. Recently, the Demon Realm has been eyeing the Cultivation Realm, so my junior brother and I came to take a look and reinforce the formation protecting the passage."

"I see!"

Mei'er knew this was for her own good, so she smiled brightly and said, "Then Mei'er thanks you both, brothers."

Luo Cheng said, "By the way, Mei'er has already received the inheritance of the Spirit Realm, so I imagine she's still quite unfamiliar with the use of her origin, right?"

"A little!"

In Mei'er's view, the uses of the Origin are just so-so: one is for teleportation, and the other is for tempering the spiritual body. With the inheritance of the Origin, as long as one is in one's own world, one can teleport to any corner.

Speaking of the application of the Origin, Li Qiang knew that his senior brother had a very deep understanding of the Origin. Back then, it was Luo Cheng who passed on half of the Origin of the Primordial Realm to him, and later, it was Luo Cheng who taught Li Qiang how to use the power of the Origin, which made Li Qiang understand what the Origin was.

At first, Li Qiang didn't even know how to use Divine Chess Power; in his eyes, it was just a high-level energy. Later, Luo Cheng enlightened Li Qiang and taught him how to use Divine Chess Power.

Luo Cheng said, "Mei'er, the origin of the world is the original energy that creates a world. The origin of the spirit ghost realm is just a little special, but that doesn't mean that the origin of the spirit ghost realm is weak."

"The origin possesses the function and characteristics to create the world, and can also evolve laws. There are three thousand great paths and three thousand laws in one world. The most common ones are the five elements, light and darkness, time, space, cause and effect, destiny, and reincarnation."

Luo Cheng gave a brief explanation and then conveyed the message through divine will.

The transmission of divine will is also called communication from heart to heart. This is the most profound form of communication. There is a saying that it can only be understood intuitively, not explained in words. The Great Way cannot be expressed in language; language has great limitations.

Luo Cheng used divine will to transmit the Dao, heart to heart, thus passing on the true meaning of the Great Dao to Mei'er. Back then, when Luo Cheng transmitted the origin of the world to Li Qiang, he also used divine will to convey it, heart to heart.

Mei'er felt a surge of information in her mind. It took her three days to fully process what Luo Cheng had taught her.

After receiving the inheritance, Mei'er finally understood.

"Thank you, Brother Luo."

Mei'er raised her hand and said, "Transform!" A flower appeared in her hand; it was a real flower, not a magical illusion.

"There must be mountains, there must be water."

Mei'er used the power of her origin to create mountains and rivers.

However, Mei'er felt something was lacking. She said, "Brother Luo, the things I create only come in black and white."

"The origin of the spirit and ghost realm is ultimately flawed, or rather, the rules of the spirit and ghost realm are just like this, which is more beneficial to spirits and ghosts."

"I see!"

Although the origins of the spirit realm have some limitations, or rather, different rules, Mei'er's understanding and application of these origins reached an advanced stage after receiving Luo Cheng's instruction.

Mei'er laughed, "The head chef and the junior chef are both so clumsy, they can't compare to Brother Luo at all."

At this moment, Mei'er finally felt a sense of control over the Spirit Realm. If Mei'er wanted, she could mobilize the power of the entire Spirit Realm.

Luo Cheng said, "Mei'er, if you utilize the power of your origin, your strength should be roughly equivalent to that of an ancient immortal."

"Hmm, hmm, Mei'er can feel it. Mei'er is super amazing now."

It could be said that as long as Mei'er exists in the Spirit Realm, she is invincible. As long as the Spirit Realm exists, Mei'er exists. In Mei'er's perception, she can control everything in the Spirit Realm, including spirits, and the fate and cause and effect of everything.

Luo Cheng said, "Mei'er, the Origin is the highest level of power. You can control the Spirit Realm and become the Supreme Being of the Spirit Realm. This is a great opportunity. Therefore, you must carefully comprehend the power of the Origin. When you become a god, your cultivation will be much smoother."

"Mei'er understands!"

"Alright, Mei'er, take us to the reverse passage. My junior brother and I will reinforce the array around the reverse passage."

"OK!"

Mei'er waved and led Luo Cheng and Li Qiang to the vicinity of the reverse passage.

Luo Cheng observed the reverse passage with his divine sense and said, "This formation is indeed a bit weak."

According to Luo Cheng's observations, this formation can withstand simultaneous attacks from ten Heavenly Lords, which is quite strong. In other words, if it were to be used against the Demon Realm, the Demon Realm would need to send at least ten Demon Lords to attack this formation simultaneously in order to break it.

Under normal circumstances, the Demon Realm cannot invade the Spirit Realm. However, the Netherworld's primordial energy diminishes over time, and the array of the reverse passage requires this primordial energy for power. As the primordial energy diminishes, the array's defenses weaken, thus giving the Demon Realm an opportunity to invade.

Luo Cheng observed the situation for a moment, then thought, 'I need to prepare a backup plan.'

"How do we do it?"

Similarly, Li Qiang also noticed some problems. He said, "Senior brother, as things stand, this formation is already strong enough."

Luo Cheng said, "How about this, we set up a divine array, and then I will open an energy channel between the original world and the spirit world, allowing the spirit world to borrow the original world's origin."

To put it another way, worlds like the Primal Realm, the Immortal Realm, and the Demon Realm belong to the Great Thousand Worlds, while the Spirit Realm belongs to the Lesser Thousand Worlds. Therefore, the Primal Realm's origin is more powerful.

"Let's do as my senior brother says."

Luo Cheng said, "Later, when Mei'er becomes an immortal, she can also go to the Origin Realm to become a supreme being."

Mei'er, however, was not happy about it. "I don't want to be one. Being the supreme ruler of the spirit realm is exhausting."

Mei'er just wanted to have fun; she really didn't want to be some kind of supreme being.

Li Qiang dotes on Mei'er. "Mei'er can do whatever she wants. We won't force you."

"My brother is still the best!"

Luo Cheng said, "Junior brother, bring out two more divine artifacts. We'll use them as the base of the formation."

"good!"

What are two divine artifacts compared to protecting Mei'er? Li Qiang didn't hesitate and directly took out two high-grade divine artifacts.

Luo Cheng said, "Junior brother, a low-grade divine artifact is enough. Sometimes, what's suitable is best."

"clear!"

Li Qiang exchanged two low-grade divine artifacts.

Luo Cheng and Li Qiang, each holding a divine artifact, stood in two different positions. Having previously set up divine arrays, they now found it much easier to work together again.

Six years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Luo Cheng withdrew his divine power and landed beside Mei'er, saying, "In this way, unless a god descends to the mortal realm, no one can break this formation."

At this moment, Li Qiang also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother, come sit at my place for a while."

"good!"

The three arrived at the temple of the Supreme Being of the Spirit Realm, where Mei'er had her spirit bring out a special wine unique to the Spirit Realm.

"Brother, this is fruit wine brewed with Netherworld Mystic Energy, it's delicious!"

"I'll try it!"

Luo Cheng took a bite and found it to be icy cold; indeed, it tasted good.

However, Luo Cheng knew that ordinary people could not drink this fruit wine. If an ordinary person drank even a small drop, they would turn into an ice sculpture. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator could not withstand this coldness, which would have some negative effects on their body.

This stuff is specifically designed for spirits and ghosts, and it's very beneficial to them. Of course, for Luo Cheng and Li Qiang, it's just a tasty drink.

Mei'er visited Baoxing twice and collected a large number of treasures. Therefore, Mei'er's era was much richer than the previous era of the Spirit and Ghost Dual Venerables.

Luo Cheng and Li Qiang stayed in the Spirit Realm for a while before returning to the Cultivation Realm. Mei'er wanted to go with Li Qiang, so he had no choice but to take her with him.

After the three returned to the cultivation world, Luo Cheng said, "Setting up this formation took several more years. I'll go check on Chenchen first."

"good!"

Li Qiang also wanted to see Yun Yu.

Luo Cheng first went to Fengyuan Star, but did not see Lin Chen. He then went to the Origin Realm, but did not sense Lin Chen's presence.

Where did Chenchen go?

Luo Cheng returned to their residence and saw a jade slip on the table. He picked it up and read the information.

"So, they went on a trip!"

Ning Xin'er stayed on Fengyuan Star for a while and got bored, so she dragged Lin Chen to other cultivation planets to play.

Luo Cheng wasn't worried about Lin Chen's safety. Lin Chen possessed many treasures, and most importantly, Lin Chen carried Luo Cheng's divine sense imprint. If Lin Chen encountered danger, Luo Cheng could use his source power to directly reach Lin Chen's side.

Since Lin Chen had gone out to have fun, Luo Cheng didn't want to disturb them. Mainly, for women, traveling, like shopping, is a form of torture for men.

Luo Cheng still longed for his hometown, so he went to Blue Star again. In Luo Cheng's prediction, if Blue Star entered the interstellar age, it would clash with the Bona people.
