This is the true immortal of the Taoist sect.

Upon hearing Lingxi's question, Qingfeng smiled calmly and said:

"Why bother searching? My Qingxu Mountain is a rare spiritual mountain and blessed land in the Jingming Grotto Heaven. There are also eight hundred miles of mountain range behind Zixiao Palace, which can be used as a base."

Lingxi nodded without saying anything.

Although Yujing Mountain is called a mountain, it is actually a world of its own.

Placed on the back of Qingxu Mountain, it appears to be just a mountain peak, but only by climbing it can one know that it is a sacred fairyland stretching for three thousand miles.

Before coming, Lingxi didn't think much of it, but after seeing the illusion of the Jingming Cave, he couldn't help but worry whether this small cave world could support Yujing Mountain.

Could Master have other backup plans?

Lingxi stopped worrying about it and just waited for his senior brother to manifest the Daoist temple at Yujing Mountain.

At that time, he will go deep into Yujing Mountain, transform into a spiritual vein, and nourish the Taoist temple.

For the next period of time, Qingfeng Mingyue and Wang Jingshu all began to cultivate in seclusion.

For so many years, they have been like children who have never had enough to eat. They are at the age when they should be growing, but they have never received any nourishment or supplements.

Now that Li Daoxuan had sent back the spirit crystals and pills, he was like a sponge that had been dry for who knows how long, and began to frantically absorb the spiritual energy from those spirit crystals.

The three of them had long since reached a remarkable level in their cultivation of Taoist arts, but because they lacked spiritual energy, their cultivation had remained stagnant.

Once this deficiency is remedied, one's cultivation level will visibly and insanely increase.

In the inner courtyard, Chen Xun and Ling tide sat in the yard, looking at the quiet room that had been closed for more than a month and sighing with emotion.

They were once again awestruck by the talent of Qingfeng and Mingyue.

The speed at which this person refined spiritual energy was several times faster than Chen Xun's.

Only a being like Lingxi, who was born from a spiritual spring, could compare with them in terms of the speed at which she could refine spiritual energy.

A month later, Wang Jingshu was the first to emerge from quarantine.

Compared to a month ago, she has undergone a complete transformation.

Not only did his magical power surge, breaking through the seven thousand strands mark, but the quality of his magical power also greatly improved.

If the original magical structure was made of wood, then it is now undoubtedly made of metal.

Their strength has increased many times over.

Even her natal sword has undergone a great transformation, becoming more agile.

It can float beside its owner without needing to be driven, and follow the owner on his journey.

However, after emerging from the pass, Wang Jingshu frowned and looked at the sky, feeling somewhat depressed.

She felt a strong sense of rejection.

There was even a faint sense of crisis.

Wang Jingshu immediately thought of her junior brother Zhu Jiu. Zhu Jiu's transformation seemed to have attracted divine punishment, ultimately leading to his death and the dissipation of his soul. His physical body turned into a stone sculpture, and his dragon soul was trapped in the Ancestral Dragon Temple, where it was unknown how many years it would take for him to be reborn.

"Am I destined to suffer this divine punishment?"

Wang Jingshu couldn't help but think to herself.

She understood that this was due to the rules of the Jingming Cave Heaven; this small cave world could not bear such a powerful being, so it could only be destroyed or expelled.

After Wang Jingshu emerged from seclusion, Mingyue and Qingfeng also emerged from seclusion one after another.

The three met up and shared their feelings, discovering that it was no coincidence.

"Don't be afraid. If there really is divine punishment, then it will be a crisis along with the consequences."

"If we can overcome the heavenly punishment, we can ascend to Xuanhuang and reunite with our master."

Qingfeng smiled and comforted him.

Mingyue and Wang Jingshu were at peace and had no worries.

Lingxi walked over and said:

"Senior brothers and sisters, don't worry. The real purpose of Master sending us here is not just to help you ascend, but to transform Jingming Cave Heaven into a sacred immortal realm that belongs exclusively to our Daoist sect."

Lingxi stood with her hands behind her back, looking quite old-fashioned, and said:

"In the Xuanhuang Great World, every sect that can be called a holy land occupies a blessed land as its foundation."

"Our Taoist sect has our master, the Taoist patriarch, and so many senior brothers and sisters who have served as emperors. We are in no way inferior to those so-called holy sects."

"Master is kind and could not bear to do the evil deeds of destroying the sect, annihilating the clan, and seizing the blessed land of Mount Ling, so he had no choice but to create one himself."

"Unbeknownst to many, above the sacred sects are the ancient imperial clans, which occupy an independent grotto-heaven as their foundation."

"Our Taoist sect naturally cannot lag behind others."

At this point, Lingxi turned to Qingfeng and said:

"Master, you have a heavy burden on your shoulders..."

Seeing Lingxi's precocious appearance despite her young age, Qingfeng didn't laugh. Instead, he bowed solemnly and said:

"This disciple will certainly do everything in his power to achieve this goal, but I would appreciate guidance from my junior brother on how to do it."

Lingxi was quite pleased with Qingfeng's respectful demeanor, and puffed out her chest, patting it as she said:

"No problem, no problem... that's up to your junior brother."

Although Qingfeng could tell that Lingxi was not human, he did not know his background and was somewhat puzzled for a moment.

Chen Xun walked over, gently rubbed Ling tide's head, and said with a complicated expression:

"It's just... I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you, junior brother."

Lingxi shook her head, looking indifferent, and said:

"What's the big deal? This was what I did before I met my master."

Qingfeng and the other two were puzzled, and Chen Xun couldn't explain it either.

Lingxi urged:

"Senior Brother Master, has Jade Capital Mountain refined it?"

Upon hearing this, Qingfeng shook his head with a wry smile and said:

"Such a treasure is not so easy to refine. However, with the magic seal left by my master, basic control is not a problem."

Lingxi nodded and said seriously:

"Alright, then let's not delay any longer. Please, Senior Brother, send it to Jade Capital Mountain."

Without further hesitation, Qingfeng flipped his palm, and Mount Yujing appeared in his hand.

Then, with a thought, golden light from the Dragon's Leap Technique appeared beneath his feet, and he transformed into a rainbow towards the back mountain.

Mingyue raised her hand and swept it up, leading Lingxi and Chen Xun to follow.

Wang Jingshu followed closely behind.

Standing on the back of Qingxu Mountain, one can see a sea of ​​clouds floating in the distance, with the rising sun casting countless rays of light on the edge of the clouds, truly a secluded paradise.

Standing atop the clouds, the group was inevitably filled with excitement.

Qingfeng's expression was solemn as he began to recite the incantation.

With a wave of his hand, the nascent form of Yujing Mountain soared into the clouds.

In an instant, an immense majesty descended from the sky, enveloping not only Qingxu Mountain but also all living beings within the entire Jingming Cave Heaven.

Immediately afterwards, the sky above Jingming Cave Heaven began to tremble incessantly.

It was a visible tremor, with ripples spreading outwards in layers, like a huge stone suddenly thrown into a calm body of water.

The entire lake began to churn.

A sense of immense panic arose in the hearts of the beings within the Jingming Cave Heaven, as if the world was about to collapse.

Meanwhile, Li Daoxuan, far away in the Xuanhuang Great World, was also awakened from his meditation.

The tremors in the Jingming Cave Heaven have already affected the Xuanhuang Great World.

However, this effect is minimal; unless one has extremely high spiritual cultivation, they will not be able to detect it at all.

Li Daoxuan sat on the Ascension Platform, and his primordial spirit could easily see the scene inside through the platform.

With a sweep of his divine sense, everything became clear.

"It begins... the Mystic Cave... let this Jade Capital Mountain assist you in becoming the Great Thief of Xuanhuang..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the nine stone pillars on the ascension platform lit up simultaneously. The light passing through the void in the center of the platform was distorted as if it were being drawn into a cosmic black hole.

The surrounding天地力量 (heaven and earth power) began to surge wildly, being completely devoured...

The Great Thief... the Great Way.

It defies the will of Heaven and is transformed.
