Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Ten years of time passed in the snap of a finger.

Yet under Xu Zhangqing's protection, the Qingmu Sect grew ever more prosperous.

The Lingqu Sect also flourished under Ruo Qunshuang's leadership.

In those ten years, Xu Zhangqing never ceased his cultivation; relying on his comprehension of the Wood Great Dao, he smoothly mastered the last two cultivation methods left by the Qing Emperor — the Qing Emperor Spirit Control Art and the One Mu Divine Thunder Art — and cultivated the Qing Emperor exclusive arts, the Qing Emperor Escape Art, the Ten-Thousand-Year Everlasting Art, and the Wood Realm Sealing Art, to full level.

His current cultivation stood firmly at the peak of a Superior Nascent Soul.

As things stood, within the same realm there should no longer be anyone who could withstand a single exchange with him.

He was now but a single step away from Spirit Severing; lacking only one opportunity, he could break through the shackles.

As for his disciples, each had their own circumstances.

Second Disciple Lin Feng, possessed of outstanding talent and diligent hard work, finally succeeded a hundred years ago in breaking through the shackles of an Earth-grade Golden Core, advancing to an Inferior Nascent Soul.

The mana around him was condensed, bearing quite a bit of Xu Zhangqing's bearing.

Everyone felt he would become the next Sect Master of the Qingmu Sect.

Eldest Disciple Sun Shangxiang, however, had no heart for cultivation.

These years, she devoted herself entirely to family, bearing sons and daughters in succession, living a plain, quiet life.

Her cultivation saw no great improvement, remaining at the Golden Core stage, yet she found joy in it all the same.

As for Qingyao, though her talent and aptitude far surpassed her peers, her youth meant her foundation was still shallow; for now she had only reached Earth-grade Golden Core Perfection, still one final step away from Nascent Soul.

Besides the disciples, the people around Xu Zhangqing also had their ups and downs.

Most of them still lingered at the Golden Core stage.

Pei Mo, relying on tenacious perseverance and decent talent, finally succeeded at a hundred years old in breaking through to a Superior Nascent Soul.

Li Sancai was slightly inferior, advancing to an Inferior Nascent Soul.

Though he fell short of Pei Mo, he was more than capable of holding his own.

These years he had constantly helped Xu Zhangqing handle sect affairs, and had already gained considerable prestige.

Hu Bugui was timid by nature, always fearing danger; to this day he remained stuck at Golden Core Peak, never daring to take that critical step.

His Dao Companion was the same; though she had reached Golden Core early on, she had no intention of breaking through.

Han Su's situation was similar; his innate aptitude was mediocre, and he lacked the determination to burn his bridges, so he stagnated at the Golden Core stage, making not an inch of progress in ten years.

Fortunately, clinging to Xu Zhangqing's thick thigh, his days passed very comfortably.

As for Chu Qiu, it was said that with the help of his master Ling Shuang, he smoothly broke through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Whether it was Inferior or Superior, there was no concrete news at present.

Only Zhao Ziyue remained without a trace, as if evaporated from the world.

No one knew where he had been these years, or what he was doing.

Even when Xu Zhangqing sent people to investigate, not a single trace could be found.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Xu Zhangqing took a deep breath and looked once more at the Attribute Panel.

Whether to fuse the Ten-Thousand-Year Everlasting Art, Qing Emperor Spirit Control Art, Qing Emperor Longevity Art, Jiahe Record, and Four Seasons Classic?

"Yes."

The instant the decision was made, Xu Zhangqing's memories concerning these several cultivation methods blurred bit by bit, retaining only experience and technique.

At the same time, a brand-new cultivation method was created.

However, this creation lasted a very long time.

Previous cultivation method fusions took only a few breaths at the shortest, a cup of tea at the longest.

But this time, it stubbornly continued for seven days and seven nights before ending.

For this, Xu Zhangqing was full of anticipation, and hurriedly checked the situation.

Creation Genesis Record

Immortal Grade

Governs life-and-death reincarnation, governs the connection of all spirits, governs life metamorphosis, governs the cycles of heaven and earth.

I am Creation; Creation is me.

Xu Zhangqing instantly stared wide-eyed: "An Immortal-grade cultivation method?"

Creation Genesis Record

First Realm: Mengya

The cultivator's body gives birth to the first wisp of "Creation Qi".

Second Realm: Tongxi

The cultivator's breathing synchronizes with the breathing of all spirits in heaven and earth.

Third Realm: Guicang

The cultivator comprehends the principle of "Guicang"; vitality is not consumption, but circulation.

Fourth Realm: Symbiosis

The cultivator can establish a "Symbiosis Pact" with all spirit plants in heaven and earth.

Fifth Realm: Yanhua

The cultivator touches the threshold of "Life Evolution".

Sixth Realm: Zhangmai

Cultivators merge completely with the spiritual veins of heaven and earth.

Seventh Realm: Yudao

Cultivators begin to master the Wood Great Dao itself.

Eighth Realm: Zao Hua

Cultivators truly touch the threshold of "Creation."

Ninth Realm: Chuangshi

The cultivator's will is the will of the vitality of heaven and earth.

In the past, techniques and spells were almost all level-based.

And, after merging, they directly reach Full Level.

However, this technique not only reaches the legendary Immortal Rank.

Even more, after merging, it actually has no realms at all.

Xu Zhangqing needs to use lifespan to raise it, otherwise he can only cultivate by relying on time.

Consume 8888 years of lifespan, raise Creation Genesis Record to First Realm?

"Cannot reach Full Level?"

Consume years of lifespan, raise Creation Genesis Record to Ninth Realm?

"All in!"

In an instant, Xu Zhangqing entered the mysterious and profound Zhen Yuan Zi state.

Initially, he thought it would take a long time to end.

Unexpectedly, he opened his eyes after only a while.

Immediately after, the System Panel popped out.

Hindered by the host's insufficient realm, improvement failed, current Third Realm!

Remaining Lifespan: years

Xu Zhangqing slightly furrowed his brow: "As expected, Immortal Rank techniques aren't that simple."

Although he had unwillingness in his heart, he also understood that this was all he could do for now.

To improve again, he could only raise his own cultivation to Nascent Soul.

Helplessly, Xu Zhangqing had to give up, just as he stepped out of the Sect Master Hall, a faint sound, carried by the wind, transmitted into his ears.

"Xu Zhangqing~"

"Xu Zhangqing~~"

"Xu Zhangqing~~~"

That voice carried endless fatigue and hoarseness, as if it had exhausted all strength in the body.

"Who is calling me?"

Xu Zhangqing followed the sound, cast Qing Emperor Escape Art, transformed into a streak of green light and departed.

Not long after, he arrived at a familiar place, Luo River.

But the scene before his eyes left Xu Zhangqing stunned.

By the banks of Luo River, the cold wind was bleak.

On the bank, a solitary figure stood alone.

That figure was thin and hunched, emitting a decay qi from the whole body.

Looking like a woman, her hair was all white, scattered over her shoulders like falling snow.

On her face, black markings resembling corpse spots were full, those markings vertical and horizontal, covering most of her face.

Her breath was weak to the extreme.

Only that pair of eyes still retained a trace of faint light.

Xu Zhangqing could hardly believe his eyes: "Eldest Senior Sister?

Is it really you?

How did you become like this?

These years, what exactly have you experienced?"

Hearing the sound, Bei Qingtang raised her head, her turbid gaze fell on him, stunned for a long time.

The person before her eyes was still that same appearance.

Even though so much time had passed, appearance and temperament still had not changed.

Bei Qingtang's accumulated grievance, pain, despair, and fatigue, at this moment, like a bursting flood, could no longer be suppressed.

She did not answer the question, nor had any extra words, just used the last of her strength, broke free from the decay qi around her body, threw herself at Xu Zhangqing, tightly embraced his chest, her voice carrying endless fatigue and sobbing: "I am tired..."
