Chapter 517

Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun's figure gradually grew thin. She suddenly stopped preaching and smiled, "The time has come, it is time to return."

She transformed into a point of green light, flying toward the northwest, and finally landed in the mountains a hundred miles behind the original Ding'an City.

An indescribable origin of wood slowly rose, and fresh greenness instantly covered the mountains within a hundred miles. The mountains were continuous, and a small mountain in the center grew section by section, finally rising by three hundred zhang. A small tree grew on the mountaintop, swaying its branches and leaves in the wind.

Around this newly born mountain peak, countless trees grew and rose one after another, turning into dense forests in the blink of an eye, and the trees on the mountaintop, in the valleys, and by the streams were all different. The vitality and spiritual energy of this forest were no less than the Northern Shanmen of the Grand Void Gate, only slightly inferior to the main mountain.

A massive amount of wood origin was continuously injected into the Azure Void, causing its already nearly dried-up nourishment to rise rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it exceeded its previous peak and had not yet stopped.

The range limit of the Azure Void Realm accelerated its expansion from the original thousand miles, and the limit expanded to fifteen hundred miles in the blink of an eye! As long as the nourishment kept up, the subsequent expansion speed of the realm would greatly increase.

The power of the Wood-Born Mystery correspondingly strengthened significantly, actually transforming from a characteristic into a wonder, and the name also automatically manifested as Building Wood-Born Mystery in accordance with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Now, the growth speed of spiritual herbs in the core herb garden of the Azure Void was equivalent to forty times that of the outside world, already comparable to the supreme-rank herb garden of the Grand Void Gate.

As Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun's lifelong foundation gradually merged into the Azure Void, the status of the Azure Void Immortal Stone rose slightly, and its fit with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth became closer. The immortal sitting inside the Azure Void seemed to have gained a bit more spirituality, with eyes about to open.

Its wonder, the Peerless Dao Domain, resonated with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and changed again, becoming even more profound and unpredictable. This time, it was automatically named: Heaven and Earth Peerless Dao Domain.

The Azure Void strengthened in all aspects, and the main peak expanded accordingly, becoming taller and thicker. Finally, the peak became over three hundred zhang in circumference, suddenly appearing much more spacious.

In the center of the sea of Human Ren Jian Yan Huo, a piece of land suddenly rose. The land was flat, and a sapling grew there on its own. The moment it appeared, the Human Ren Jian Yan Huo shook, and the spirituality of all spiritual plants improved slightly, while the progress of the Human Ren Jian Yan Huo's Nurturing Spirit Realm instantly advanced by half, and now only the last tenth remained.

So many changes, yet they made Wei Yuan unable to be happy at all.

He had only met Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun a few times and couldn't claim to understand her. But sometimes, the depth of mutual understanding does not lie in how many times one meets.

Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun's coming here was actually only a small part for Bao Yun; more of it was to place another heavy piece for the Grand Void Gate's foundation in the Western Region.

The True Lords of the Grand Void Gate had long been paying attention to Wei Yuan and had seen everything he did after establishing the Azure Void. Therefore, when Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun knew that her fall was inevitable, she hurriedly rushed to the Azure Void, using her own body to cast another weight for the situation.

The senior's deep love made Wei Yuan's eyes feel sore from time to time, as if sand had entered them.

When the gushing of the wood origin stopped, Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun had completely passed away, dissipating between heaven and earth. The Gate of Reincarnation of the Myriad Realms had no movement; presumably, Huang Yun's true spirit had another destination.

Monk Qiuyue put his palms together, chanted a Buddha's name, and said, "Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun's feat is truly a model for our generation! Alas, this little monk only studies the nineteen lines of Go every day, which is already inferior. Comparing myself to the Fenhai Zhenjun today, I am truly too ashamed to face anyone."

Fenhai Zhenjun Lu Xuan Xuan Yue advised, "There is also the true meaning of the Great Dao in the nineteen lines of Go; studying it diligently helps one's cultivation, Master Qiuyue need not be so harsh on yourself."

The other True Lords remained silent, their hearts desolate.

At this time, the iron curtain of the firmament in the sky gradually opened, the Ancestral Shaman's will receded, and one could vaguely feel the gaze of the monsters from outside the sky again.

The Imperial View True Lords one after another restrained their aura. Wei Wei Boyang let out a long sigh, shook his head, and disappeared. The two Imperial View Elders of the Cui family pulled Cui Yu aside to give some instructions, then also hid themselves.

Finally, Master Chenzhou and Monk Qiuyue came to Wei Yuan and pointed to the two cultivators following them, saying, "These two, one is Xuanjizi and the other is Canglong Shi; both are famous national masters of the world, far surpassing the two of us."

Wei Yuan hurriedly saluted. Xuanjizi and Canglong Shi were famous throughout the world, their chess skills were nearly perfect, and their cultivation was also extremely high. This time, the five Imperial View True Lords came together and scared off the Shaman tribe, which was the main reason for the Shaman tribe's retreat.

These two were true great national masters, belonging to the level of the entire Great Tang. While Master Chenzhou and Monk Qiuyue could only be called national masters of the Wu State; the two sides were of different ranks.

Canglong Shi stroked his beard and said, "The great battle has just ceased, and little friend Wei must have many things to be busy with. How about this, we will find a place at a ley line node, build a hut to live in, and wait for little friend Wei to finish his work before we come to study the Dao of chess, how about that?"

Wei Yuan naturally couldn't ask for more, so he said, "Wherever the seniors fancy, just go there."

Canglong Shi said, "It's good to have little friend's words. We plan to choose a piece of land by the herb garden and then wait quietly for little friend's arrival."

These great national masters seemed to have special means and didn't care too much about the gaze of the monsters from outside the sky, and after restraining their aura, they could move freely in the Azure Void.

While Fenhai Zhenjun Lu Xuan Xuan Yue and the other True Lords couldn't stay for long, they either had to go outside the sky or leave the Broken Domain.

After handling Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun's funeral affairs, Wei Yuan hurried to deal with the post-war aftermath. In the third great battle, the Shaman tribe left behind another four hundred thousand corpses, while the Azure Void lost one hundred and ninety thousand people, half of whom died under Grandmaster Hongye's move, Star Dome Collapse.

The generals were already very skilled at handling the aftermath. Transporting corpses, identifying them, registering them in the books, and then transporting the corpses to the Mountain of Heroic Spirits for burial.

There were too many corpses on the Mountain of Heroic Spirits, and they couldn't be buried in time, so they could only be piled in ice pits and buried slowly.

The Shaman tribe's corpses were handled as before, transported to the dumping ground, waiting for them to slowly dissipate their essence, be converted into the vitality of the human domain, and finally be burned and buried as ash.

Having finally finished handling all matters, Wei Yuan flew to the place where Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun passed away, looking at that newly born mountain peak and the new tree on the peak, just watching quietly. Unknowingly, a drop of hot water fell. According to the palace history books, the True Lords of the Grand Void Gate through the ages had different personalities, and there were quite a few who were petty and vengeful, but when facing life and death, they were all open-minded and transparent. Whether falling in battle or passing away of old age, they all faced it calmly. Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun was also like this.

Just as he was watching, Su Su Xuejing's figure appeared beside Wei Yuan. He took a pot of wine and drank more than half of it in one gulp. Then he shook the wine pot and handed the rest to Wei Yuan, saying, "Doesn't seem to be much left."

Wei Yuan drank it all in one gulp and tossed the wine pot toward the mountain forest below.

Su Su Xuejing let out a long sigh and went away.

On the mountaintop, beside the small tree, Bao Yun had already cried until she was tired and lay on a mountain rock, falling into a deep sleep. Wei Yuan appeared quietly behind her, took off his outer robe, and gently covered Bao Yun with it.

Bao Yun was exhausted in body and mind and had long since fallen asleep, but she suddenly opened her eyes and saw that she was surrounded by a vast ocean.

The sea surface was as smooth as a mirror, without wind or waves, and thick mist was swirling in the distance. She looked around and realized she was on a desert island. There was nothing on the island, only a large tree. The tree was two zhang tall, with only three or four branches extending from the top, and each branch had one or two leaves.

This tree looked like Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun's Dharma Form, the Heaven-Reaching Building Wood, only at this time it was still just a small sapling. But this tree indeed had Huang Yun's aura.

Bao Yun sat leaning under the tree, and unknowingly, tears flowed down again.

At this time, a sound of thunder suddenly rang out in the distant sky, actually making Bao Yun shudder instinctively, and even her Dao foundation trembled slightly.

Bao Yun hurriedly got up and looked into the distance, seeing that a tribulation cloud had appeared in the sky over there, and a lightning tribulation fell from the sky, but the sea was filled with mist, so she couldn't see who was undergoing the tribulation.

Please... you... bookmark 6... 9... book... okay...!

Bao Yun suddenly had an epiphany: "Is this the Human Ren Jian Yan Huo? Did I come in?"

But coming in didn't seem to be of any use; she couldn't see anyone, the surroundings were all a vast ocean, and there was only one Heaven-Reaching Building Wood with Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun's aura on the small island.

Bao Yun came to the seaside and reached out to touch the seawater. Suddenly, something in the water shot toward her finger like lightning! Fortunately, a silver light flashed on the little thing's body, which was noticed by Bao Yun, and she immediately withdrew her hand.

In the water was a silver swimming fish the size of an ant, but its speed was as fast as a sharp arrow, swaying cold light as it moved, and it looked extremely ferocious. Bao Yun felt a chill in her heart, knowing that crossing the sea was probably not feasible, as she didn't know what other ferocious strange things were in the sea.

She tried to take off, but her body was heavy, and she barely left the ground by three feet before falling back down.

It seems she was going to be trapped on this small island?

Bao Yun went around once but had no gains. So she returned to the tree and sat down, leaning against the large tree, and slowly closed her eyes.

When she opened her eyes again, she saw Wei Yuan's outer robe draped over her. Only then did she feel the soreness all over her body. In the great battle, she had taken two of Grandmaster Hongye's killing moves head-on; not only were her protective magic treasures cleared out, but there were also countless hidden injuries on her body.

An Enlightened Dao Foundation warrior landed on the mountaintop and said, "Your new residence is ready; shall I take you to see it?"

Bao Yun nodded and flew away following the Dao Foundation warrior.

Wei Yuan had prepared two residences for Bao Yun in total, one on the main peak and the other behind the original Ding'an City, where a small courtyard had been built on the edge of the forest that Fenhai Zhenjun Huang Yun had catalyzed. The small courtyard was built in a hurry, with blue tiles and white walls, and the layout was simple, but in the winding path leading to a secluded spot, lotus flowers swayed in a pond, and the environment was uniquely elegant.

Bao Yun walked into the small courtyard, and on the table in the main hall were several boxes with the Bao family's mark on them. Bao Yun opened them and saw that they were all protective magic treasures, obviously bestowed by Bao Manshan and the Seventh Elder.

Bao Yun came to the study. The scenery here was excellent. Pushing open the window and looking out, it was the newly born mountain peak. The mountain body was reflected in the hazy halo of sunlight, blurring its outline. A breeze brushed her face, blowing a mountain fragrance, and the aura of the wood origin was faintly discernible. She sighed softly, feeling tired, and fell into a deep sleep on the desk.

In the Human Ren Jian Yan Huo, Zhang Sheng stood with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance at the vast ocean.

The three hundred and seventy-first lightning tribulation was brewing in the sky, but Zhang Sheng didn't care at all. Now the Immortal Sword Society had formed its own sword array, automatically protecting its master; even if she were asleep, she could undergo the tribulation.

The other half of the disciples were opening four lines at the same time, and the rest were opening two lines. And those opening two lines seemed a bit embarrassed.

Seeing the progress clearly accelerated, the refugees finally stabilized, and Wei Yuan's heart also settled a bit. These refugees would all have to go to the battlefield soon, and if there was any problem with people's hearts and morale at this time, it would lead to a major disaster in the future.

Therefore, as soon as Wei Yuan discovered a bad sign, he immediately extinguished it with thunderous means, not hesitating to send a Creation View disciple back to the Primordial Tai Tai Chu Gong.

These were all people who were going to the battlefield. In front of them, no matter what cultivator's face and self-esteem, they had to be put aside.

After finally pacifying the refugees here, suddenly there was a commotion at the porridge shed. Wei Yuan swept his spiritual sense and found that the porridge and steamed buns in the porridge shed had actually bottomed out, and at this time, at least 70,000 or 80,000 refugees had not received food.

All grain allocation from the warehouse had records, and there were backups in the Human World Renjian Yanhuo. According to the amount of grain out of the warehouse today, even if it couldn't feed all the refugees, it would at most be a gap of 10,000 people, and it would be fine to allocate more grain.

And now, the amount in between clearly didn't match.

This time, Wei Yuan really had the heart to kill.
