Clan Cultivation: Starting from Foundation Establishment on Mount Luoxia

The pure white pillar of light that shot into the sky reached its peak the instant Li Xiaoyao opened his eyes and his spiritual pressure in his Purple Mansion surged forth.

Within the pillar of light, the illusory images of mountains and rivers became increasingly solid, and the earth's veins intertwined with the clouds in the sky, faintly forming a strange spatial projection that was both independent and closely connected to this world.

That was the initial form of Li Xiaoyao's Purple Mansion Grotto-Heaven.

As Xiao Xiting and the other three imploded Li Xiaoyao's four illusory immortal foundations into the pillar of light, they solidified and merged into the origin of this world.

The half-plane of C-749 seemed to receive timely rain after a long drought, emitting a satisfied hum.

The laws of heaven and earth, which were originally broken and chaotic due to the rampage of the Heavenly Demons and the impact of the blood tide, began to be repaired, replenished and sublimated at an unprecedented speed!

In the east, spring breezes and rains nourish the grass and trees, creating a vibrant and verdant landscape.

In the south, celestial fire flows, blazing but not violent, with warm and bright crimson clouds rising.

In the west, the golden energy is subdued, its sharpness concealed, and a solid, sharp white light is faintly visible.

In the north, cold waters gather and nourish all things, their deep, dark blue light settling deep within.

In the center, the thick earth bears all things and supports the four poles. The profound and heavy spiritual energy flows continuously from Li Xiaoyao and from the depths of the earth, harmonizing the four directions.

The Five Elements are complete, and the Four Symbols revolve!

In the sky, the remaining gloomy clouds completely dissipated, replaced by endless auspicious rays of light.

The vibrant colors flowed and reflected the entire world, making it magnificent and splendid.

On the earth, the cracked ravines began to heal, and the filthy evil energy was quickly purified and replaced by the newly generated pure spiritual energy.

The vegetation immediately regenerated, and beneath that scorched earth, one could already feel a powerful vitality brewing.

A complete, stable, and upward-potential world atmosphere has replaced the previous incompleteness, oppression, and chaotic malevolent energy.

At this moment, the half-plane of Bing-749 successfully crossed the most crucial threshold and officially ascended to become a newly born small world with earth attribute as its foundation and all five elements present!

At the very moment the world successfully ascended!

"Snap... Splash..."

A soft sound, like an invisible chain breaking and dissipating, echoed in the hearts of Xiao Xiting, He Qingru, Chen Honglie, and Chi Jiaheng.

The immense force of vigilance and blockade that had been binding them, originating from the instinctive nature of the Heavenly Dao of this world, melted and receded rapidly, like ice and snow under the sun.

They rediscovered a clear connection with the vastness of the outside world.

The flow of the Purple Mansion Dharma Power within his body was no longer sluggish, his thoughts were clear, as if a thousand-pound burden had been lifted.

"It's done!"

Chen Shouzhou (Honglie Zhenren) let out a long sigh of relief, and a cheerful smile appeared on his face.

"This young master finally showed some reason; after eating and drinking his fill, he knew to release the people."

He Lingyi (Qingru Zhenren) nodded slightly and withdrew her hand from the strings.

The illusory image of the green willow behind her quietly dissipated. She looked at Li Xiaoyao, whose aura was rapidly stabilizing within the pillar of light, and a mysterious expression flashed in her clear, cold eyes.

Chi Feiyuan (Jiaheng Zhenren) remained indifferent, only his fingers, which were behind his back, twitched slightly.

The illusory image of the Sword Pavilion behind him transformed into a stream of light and disappeared into his body. He then bowed slightly to Xiao Xiting and said, "Fellow Daoist Xiting, now that this matter is settled, I shall take my leave."

Having said that, without waiting for a reply, his figure flickered and transformed into an inconspicuous gray-white sword light, piercing through the dimensional barrier that no longer posed an obstacle, and disappearing into the vast void.

"Old Chi is still so impatient."

Master Honglie laughed heartily and clasped his hands in greeting to Xiao Xiting and He Qingru.

"Fellow Daoists, this collaboration has been pleasant. Although there were some twists and turns, the result was not bad."

"I, Old Chen, am also taking my leave now. I'm going back to rest and recuperate! Until we meet again!"

A burst of crimson flames enveloped him, and like a shooting star, he crashed into the sky with a deafening roar, leaving a scorching trail before disappearing completely.

He Qingru looked at Xiao Xiting and said softly, "Fellow Daoist Xiting, you bear a position in the Immortal Sect, and I'm sure you still have follow-up matters to discuss with the newly promoted Fellow Daoist Li here. I won't disturb you any longer."

Her gaze swept over Li Xiaoyao below, whose spiritual light was gradually receding, and she paused slightly.

"This child... possesses superior temperament and opportunities, and his future is likely limitless. It would be a wise move for you, fellow Daoist, to forge a good relationship with him."

After speaking, she gently stroked the strings of the zither with her delicate hand, and a clear and melodious sound rang out. She and the zither then transformed into specks of emerald light and disappeared without a trace.

In the blink of an eye, the three Purple Mansion True Persons departed one after another, leaving only Xiao Xiting standing in mid-air with a smile on his face, watching Li Xiaoyao below slowly gathering his aura and adapting to the new realm.

The towering pure white pillar of light gradually faded and receded as the world's ascension was completed and Li Xiaoyao's Purple Mansion Cave Heaven began to stabilize.

Ultimately, all the strange phenomena were completely contained within Li Xiaoyao's body.

Li Xiaoyao stepped into the void, walking down step by step. With each step, wisps of pale golden auspicious clouds naturally rose from beneath his feet, supporting him.

His aura had been completely stabilized at the early stage of the Purple Mansion realm. Although he had only just entered this realm, his foundation was far more solid and robust than that of ordinary Purple Mansion cultivators, thanks to the full assistance of the will of Heaven during his breakthrough.

Furthermore, a unique aura connected to the origin of this newly formed minor world lingered around him, giving him a sense of closeness and control in this world, as if he were in his element and his words carried the weight of the law.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Li, on your ascension to the heavens and the completion of your Purple Mansion! And congratulations on the new life of this realm; the Great Dao is within reach!"

Xiao Xiting cupped his hands and smiled, his tone now showing more genuine equality and appreciation than before.

Li Xiaoyao dared not be negligent and quickly returned the greeting, his attitude still respectful: "This junior's success is entirely due to the great help of the four True Immortals and the favor of Heaven."

"This kindness and virtue will be forever etched in my heart."

At this moment, his mind was in turmoil as he felt the vast, transformative power of the Purple Mansion within his body, as well as the small but immense potential of the newly formed cave heaven that resonated faintly with the earth's veins. It was as if he had been transported to another world.

Xiao Xiting waved his hand: "Fellow Daoist Li, there's no need to be so modest. Now that you've ascended to the Purple Mansion realm, you can address me as someone at the same level."

"Besides, now that you have succeeded, it is also a way for me to get out of my predicament, settle my karmic debts, and achieve mutual benefit."

He changed the subject and said seriously, "However, now that Fellow Daoist Li has advanced to the Purple Mansion realm, there are some rules and procedures that need to be explained to you."

"Besides my Daoist title of Xiting Zhenren, I also hold the honorary position of outer sect elder within the Qingxiao Immortal Sect."

Li Xiaoyao's heart skipped a beat, knowing that the real topic was about to be discussed.

"According to the rules of the Immortal Sect, any cultivator who successfully breaks through from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Purple Mansion stage within the Immortal Sect's family system, regardless of their background, automatically obtains the qualification of an outer sect elder of the Immortal Sect. If they come from a pioneering family, their family benefits will also be improved accordingly."

Xiao Xiting explained, "More importantly, there is an important rule regarding the development of new planes: if a pioneering family is established, and the first native Purple Mansion cultivator in the history of that plane is born in the demi-plane (or minor world) they have developed."

"Then, this plane will automatically be transformed into the family's exclusive permanent territory, enjoying a high degree of autonomy. They only need to pay a certain percentage of tribute to the Immortal Sect on time and abide by the basic laws of the Immortal Sect."
