Protagonist:

Xu Changqing

"Merely a stroke of luck."

Xu Changqing smiled faintly: "There have been quite a few encounters along this path, plus some opportunities, that allowed me to reach today's cultivation."

His such modesty and low profile instead made Xuan Yan and Qiong feel even more admiration in their hearts.

The two looked at each other, their expressions both becoming polite, completely different from their previous attitude.

Previously, although they valued Xu Changqing's talent, they merely regarded him as a junior.

But now, Xu Changqing has also become a Spirit Transformation Venerable, the three have similar cultivation, the other party is no longer that young cultivator who needed their protection.

Xuan Yan said solemnly: "Changqing, now you are already at the Spirit Transformation realm, the top combat power of the Eastern Region.

There is a matter, the two of us have discussed for a long time, today we want to talk about it."

Xu Changqing nodded lightly: "Great Elder, please speak."

Not waiting for the Great Elder to continue, Qiong took over the conversation: "It concerns the Dongting Immortal Sect's Sect Leader Position, Chao Jin occupies the Sect Leader Position yet has never fulfilled the Sect Leader's responsibilities.

Now with so many things happening, he still shrinks inside the Yunhua Realm, such conduct truly makes one feel disappointed."

Xuan Yan added: "Currently, the Dongting Immortal Sect is a group of dragons without a leader, the major Immortal Peaks are divided.

You have good talent, your cultivation also meets the requirements, if willing, the two of us are willing to jointly recommend, letting you become the Dongting Immoral Sect's new Sect Master.

At that time you will command the Immortal Sect, join hands with the Qingmu Sect and Three-Eyed Clan, together guard the Eastern Region, resist the Demon Realm invasion."

As the words fell, the two gazed at Xu Changqing with burning eyes, their eyes full of expectation.

They deeply knew, Xu Changqing is a person who takes responsibility, if he becomes the Dongting Immortal Sect Master, he will surely revitalize the Immortal Sect, even gather the Eastern Region's power, together face the current crisis.

Xu Changqing hearing this, his heart stirred.

First, he had never thought about wanting to serve as the Dongting Immortal Sect's Sect Master.

What he sought all these years was merely to protect those beside him.

But he also clearly knows, the Eastern Region's situation although stable, yet hides crisis.

Central Region monsters rampage, the Wu Sheng Chong Mu secretly refines the Xuan River's water, once the other party succeeds, the entire Tianyuan Realm will face a calamity of annihilation.

If commanding the Dongting Immortal Sect, integrating power, indeed can better respond to subsequent crises.

However the Immortal Sect has been divided for many years, especially the Seven Great Immortal Peaks, now they have long lost contact.

Wanting to gather everyone together is no different from a fool's dream, almost impossible to complete.

What's more, Chao Jin is the legitimate Sect Master, once the other party appears, discovers yet another Sect Master added, in the future a dispute is inevitable.

Therefore, Xu Changqing pondered a moment, then spoke: "Thank you two for your high regard, but the Sect Master position concerns major matters, I must carefully consider.

Right now I just returned to the Qingmu Sect, still have many affairs to handle, how about we discuss this matter later?"

Xuan Yan and Qiong hearing this, both nodded.

They also knew, this matter is too major, Xu Changqing needs time to consider.

Xuan Yan said in a deep voice: "You just returned, traveled hard all the way, go back and rest first.

If any need, you can find us anytime."

Qiong agreed: "Correct, now you are a Spirit Transformation Venerable, stabilizing cultivation is most important."

Xu Changqing bowed: "Thank you two for understanding, then I will go back first, this matter I will give you two an answer as soon as possible."

Finished speaking, he turned and left the great hall, walking toward his residence.

"Perhaps, we shouldn't have pressured Changqing!"

"No choice, Outer Realm Foreign Races are coming, the Three-Eyed Clan can barely hold on!"

"Strange, with the Three-Eyed Clan resisting outside, why would it still attract so many Foreign Races?"

"All of this has a great deal to do with the Hundred Dragons Patrol..."

"Speaking of, that cultivator who was drawn away, has it been found out who it is?"

"No, not a shred of news!"

Inside the hall, Xuan Yan and Qiong transmitted voices to each other, discussing heatedly.

The reason the two are so urgent is because of Outer Realm factors.

Initially, that is before the Hundred Dragons Patrol occurred, the Three-Eyed Clan outside resisted Outer Realm Foreign Races' peeking and invasion, it was still relatively easy.

But since the Hundred Dragons Patrol happened, the Tianyuan Realm was thoroughly targeted.

……

……

Returning to his residence, Xu Changqing sat cross-legged, carefully sensing.

On one side the Tu Soil God's origin power, on the other side the Tu Soil Dragon Pearl's blessing.

Under the joint action of these two powers, now the Earth Spirit Root, its strength has already comprehensively surpassed the five Spirit Roots of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Thunder.

His mind moved, he actively circulated the Earth Spirit Root.

In an instant, a heavy, condensed aura burst forth from within his body.

On Xu Changqing's skin surface, emerged layers of yellow patterns, like the cracked texture of the great earth, also like ancient rock strata's wrinkles, spreading from fingertips to shoulders and neck, finally gathering at the heart.

These patterns are not static, they rise and fall slightly with breathing, as if the entire great earth breathes on his body.

Simultaneously centered on Xu Changqing, the residence's nearby Third Grade Spiritual Soil, actually automatically converted into higher grade Four Grade Five-Colored Earth.

From the Five-Colored Earth emerged countless tender shoots, first they grew, then rapidly withered, repeating thus, actually displaying a scene of the withering and flourishing cycle.

At this moment, Xu Zhangqing raised his right hand, five fingers loosely curled.

In his palm, a cluster of yellow spiritual light condensed, its heaviness far surpassing common sense.

Clearly only the size of a fist, yet it gave one the illusion of holding up a thousand-zhang great mountain.

Within the spiritual light, tiny grains of sand could be faintly seen rotating at high speed; each grain contained Impure Earth Power, yet also carried a wisp of contradictory aura of corrosion and regeneration.

The most astonishing change lay in the aura.

When the Earth Spiritual Root circulated, Xu Zhangqing seemed to fuse into one with the great earth.

His breathing frequency synchronized with the Spiritual Vein's warp, his heartbeat becoming muffled and drawn-out, like the Hongmeng from the depths of the Earth Core.

The gravity in the surroundings also underwent a subtle change; any object stepping into the residence's Range Internal would feel their body sink, as if falling into a quagmire.

And behind Xu Zhangqing, a blurry yellow phantom flashed past — a wisp of the Impure Earth God's Spiritual Projection, emitting terrifying pressure.

The Metal Spiritual Root's sharpness, the Wood Spiritual Root's vitality, the Water Spiritual Root's flexibility, the Fire Spiritual Root's explosiveness, the Thunder Spiritual Root's swift ferocity — before this power as vast and thick as the great earth, they all appeared thin.

The Earth Spiritual Root was no longer the most "dull" among the Five Elements, but the source that bears all things and devours all things.

Xu Zhangqing looked at the yellow spiritual light in his palm and suddenly realized: "Thick earth bears all things."

A moment later, he took out the Xuanhuang Mother Ore and the semi-finished Xuanhuang Mother Qi Cauldron.

The golden Xuanhuang Mother Ore emitted vast Earth Origin Power; the semi-finished cauldron body, though not yet formed, faintly revealed pressure.

Xu Zhangqing examined it carefully and said seriously: "Xuanhuang Mother Ore, product of heaven and earth's union, is an Earth-type Supreme Treasure.

If refined into this cauldron, assisted by my comprehension of Earth Qi and the origin power of Impure Earth... this cauldron shall achieve great completion."

He raised both hands virtually, magic power surging from his palms, transforming into two light bands like spiritual snakes, winding around the Xuanhuang Mother Ore and slowly lifting it, suspending it above the cauldron mouth.

Refining the cauldron, began!
