Protagonist:
Xu Changqing
The Great Dao Venerable did not give Xu Changqing much time to think; he slightly closed his eyes, and his voice returned to its initial calm: "Withdraw.
Go report to the Spirit Plant Division on Yu Heng Xing; that place suits you."
In fact, besides that place there was no second choice.
This disciple's entire body of abilities lay almost entirely in the aspects of planting and nurturing.
Admittedly, when he dueled the Demon God Kong Fang, he indeed employed all manner of methods.
The problem is, in the Beidou Star Domain there is hardly any need for combat.
Upon hearing this, Xu Changqing nodded, then cupped his fists and said: "Disciple takes his leave."
But when he reached the gate, he suddenly halted his steps, hesitated a moment, turned back and asked: "Master, may this disciple go fetch his family?"
Not to mention anything else, the Beidou Star Domain is far safer than the Tianyuan Realm and the Tai Xu Lie Yuan.
Considering An'an's potential, coming here is undoubtedly the best choice.
The Great Dao Venerable's voice came from behind, without any fluctuation in tone: "You are already this Venerable's personal disciple; this matter does not require a request."
After Xu Changqing left, the Nine Extremes Heavenly King stepped into the hall; he walked before the heavenly throne and saluted: "Dao Venerable, I have one matter I do not understand."
The Great Dao Venerable did not open his eyes: "Speak."
The Nine Extremes Heavenly King raised his head and voiced the doubt pressing on his heart: "Regarding the title, everyone else is True Monarch, Star Monarch, or Dao Monarch; why is he alone the Creation Lord?
This title has no precedent in the Beidou Star Domain!"
The Great Dao Venerable's voice was very calm: "The Creation Dao lacks an inheritance; it needs a new Dao Master.
And Xu Changqing is the Creation Dao's… sole Dao Master today."
Hearing this, the Nine Extremes Heavenly King froze; he stayed silent for a good while before speaking again: "Dao Venerable, the former Creation Dao Master… has not perished.
He was merely erased by you from time and imprisoned in the Eternal Night Ruins."
As these words fell, the golden threads inside the hall simultaneously ceased flowing.
A moment later, the Great Dao Venerable's voice rang out, his tone still calm: "Faith requires Creation Power to harmonize."
He paused, then continued: "Otherwise the collected Faith Power cannot be fully utilized by the Immortal Mansion, let alone by us.
Therefore, Creation Power must exist."
Having heard this, the Nine Extremes Heavenly King finally understood.
He straightened, cast a complex gaze at the Great Dao Venerable, then swallowed back all his remaining words.
Obviously, Xu Changqing was not the most suitable person.
But he was certainly the most obedient person.
His existence was precisely so that the Beidou Star Domain's faith system could once again obtain the harmonizing of Creation Power.
……
……
Before long, Xu Changqing arrived at the edge of Tian Shu Xing, raised his hand and beckoned in the void.
As five-colored radiance flashed, the Jingyuan Mountain Chariot flew out from his sleeve, expanded in the wind, and in the blink of an eye recovered its hundred-zhang size.
The spirit patterns on the mountain chariot lit up in succession, emitting a low hum, as if responding to its master's summons.
Immediately afterward, a clear phoenix cry resounded.
The Fire Phoenix spread its wings and flew out from the mountain chariot, its flame-bathed wings tracing two crimson-gold arcs across the sky above the golden plain.
It circled the Jingyuan Mountain Chariot once, then landed before it, preparing to use its own power to tow it and set the Jingyuan Mountain Chariot in motion.
Xu Changqing stepped onto the mountain chariot and sat cross-legged at its highest point.
He thought for a moment, then summoned Kong Ling as well.
Cooped up this long, it was time to let her out for a breath of fresh air.
"Master!"
The moment Kong Ling appeared she was beside herself with excitement; she immediately shook her feathers, her seven-colored tail feathers unfurling in the void, reflecting a riot of dazzling light.
She glanced at the towing Fire Phoenix, then at the cross-legged Xu Changqing, as if understanding something, then beat her wings and flew up.
But she did not leave; instead she circled at the side.
The Jingyuan Mountain Chariot swiftly rose into the air, heading toward Yu Heng Xing.
In a flash, Tian Shu Xing grew smaller and smaller behind them.
Only Xu Changqing was not in a hurry to rush the journey; instead he took out the five Immortal Artifacts one by one.
Creation Brush, Creation Seal, Creation Pearl, Creation Ruler, Creation Mirror — the five Immortal Artifacts floated before him, each emitting an aura fluctuation of the same origin as the Creation Power within his body.
Xu Changqing stared at them for a long time, then took a deep breath, and his Divine Sense overflowed from his brow center, simultaneously infusing into the five Immortal Artifacts.
The instant the Divine Sense left its imprints, the five Immortal Artifacts actually all lit up at once.
The Creation Brush's tip drew a profound rune in the void.
The Creation Seal's face manifested the illusory shadow of a tender sprout breaking through the soil.
Inside the Creation Pearl, the misty breath suddenly accelerated its circulation.
The green light patterns on the Creation Ruler abruptly extended by over three inches.
The Creation Mirror's surface, as if a stone had been tossed in, rippled with concentric rings.
Five beams of light exploded simultaneously; at the very moment the light was most intense, a vast, indescribable volume of information surged directly into Xu Changqing's sea of consciousness.
Immortal-grade cultivation method, *Creation Heavenly Scripture*!
The content was like saber scars carved into the soul, every character burning in the sea of consciousness.
Xu Zhangqing closed his eyes, sinking all his attention into the sea of consciousness, leafing through this ancient cultivation method sealed for who knows how many ten thousands of years, word by word, sentence by sentence.
Then, he froze.
The introductory part of the *Creation Heavenly Scripture* had a similarity to the *Creation Genesis Record* he had cultivated for many years that was simply too high.
Both of their First Realms are called Mengya.
But upon careful comparison, the difference is extremely deep.
The Mengya of the *Creation Genesis Record* relies on the Wood Spirit Root and Wood Spirit Qi to sprout the first wisp of Creation Qi inside the body.
The Mengya of the *Creation Heavenly Scripture* draws the Creation Source from the primordial state of all things, directly condensing the Creation Seed, not even relying on any Spiritual Root.
Both Second Realms are called Tongxi.
The Tongxi of the Genesis Record is breathing in sync with all spirits of heaven and earth.
The Tongxi of the Heavenly Scripture is breathing in sync with mountains and rivers, rivers, stars, and even all existences within Creation; the range expands from living beings to all existences.
Both Third Realms are called Guicang.
The Guicang of the Genesis Record treats vitality as a cycle rather than consumption.
The Guicang of the Heavenly Scripture: all things are born from Creation and will ultimately return to Creation; the cultivator can revert the laws of external objects into the Creation Source.
This is a cycle at the Source level, not the vitality level.
Up to here, the similarity between the two reaches over seventy percent.
But starting from the Fourth Realm, they begin to diverge.
The Fourth Realm of the *Creation Genesis Record* is called Symbiosis, establishing a symbiotic pact with all spirit plants between heaven and earth, using spirit plants as a medium to mobilize Creation Power.
The Fourth Realm of the *Creation Heavenly Scripture* is called Transforming Things, creating things out of nothing with Creation Power, not needing any medium, directly condensing real objects from the void.
One borrows what already exists, one creates out of nothing.
Xu Zhangqing opened his eyes, exhaling a mouthful of turbid qi.
No wonder!
No wonder the Nine Extremes Heavenly King and the Dao Venerate mistook him for cultivating the Creation Dao.
As it turns out, the *Creation Genesis Record* indeed bears the shadow of the Creation Dao.
He was silent for a moment, then habitually glanced at the Attribute Panel.
Remaining Lifespan: 2793241 years!
