The outer void is a vast, chaotic expanse.

Spacetime vortexes of varying sizes were constantly rotating.

Suddenly, a purple light pierced through the many spacetime vortexes.

Boundless lightning burst forth from the vortex, like a celestial serpent swallowing the moon, rushing to devour the purple light.

The divine thunder that occasionally exploded created ripples in the chaotic void.

Bai Cang sat upright amidst the purple light, with many stars and phantom images of the world flashing before his eyes.

He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "This local world is so rude!"

These divine lightning bolts represent the instinctive rejection and defense of various worlds against "visitors from outside the realm".

However, Bai Cang was not worried: his teacher's purple light was enough to support him to roam freely in the vast void and choose any world to begin his travels.

If he insists on "wandering," it's not impossible.

In short, the purple light will only guide him back to the "Great Crimson Heaven" when the time comes.

"So what exactly did I do to offend the teacher?"

Even when he was complaining in his heart, he still used "respectful terms." Isn't that filial enough?

Bai Cang muttered something to himself with slight displeasure, but didn't take it too seriously.

It's only been a short period of thirty to fifty years, which is nothing at all.

At worst, we can just treat it as a spontaneous "trip".

Even if he doesn't travel to any other world, but just roams freely in this vast void.

It can also broaden one's horizons considerably, greatly benefiting one's future path.

With this in mind, Bai Cang immediately calmed his mind and pondered the many messages hidden within the bizarre and fantastical world.

only……

"What exactly does 'gathering the essence of the heavens and refining the spirit of the universe' mean?"

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Cang finally sighed helplessly.

Just then, a small spacetime vortex suddenly came into his view.

With a thought, Bai Cang activated the "Heart-Mind Divine Calculation," and a scene immediately appeared in his mind.

But in the very center of that spacetime vortex, there hung a world with a flat sky and a round earth.

There were also seven slightly smaller orbs of light that seemed to be constantly rotating around it.

"In a world where Yin and Yang and the Five Elements are complete, the strongest beings are only at the level of the Primordial Spirit Dao Lord?"

Bai Cang seemed to sense an opportunity in the dark, and immediately released a vast and ethereal aura to lock onto that world.

"boom!"

The next moment.

The purple light suddenly descended, like a phantom, traversing endless time and space, and heading towards that world.

Countless divine thunderbolts roared across the sky, but it was too late.

…………

An unknown world, a desolate wilderness.

A magical duel is underway, with all sorts of spells flying around.

"kill!"

"Don't let these remnants of heretics escape!"

"Master Xiaoyue has decreed: Anyone who captures and kills the remnants of heretics will be richly rewarded!"

Excited shouts came from the dozen or so people who were besieging the attackers.

The besieged couple, however, simply used their magical artifacts to charge outwards with their heads down.

"boom!"

Just then.

A purple beam of light, reaching to the heavens and the earth, pierced down from beyond the sky.

A handsome young man wearing a golden crown and a blood-red robe stepped out from the purple pillar of light.

This caused all the cultivators present to be taken aback.

"Heretical sects..."

Amidst the pursuit, a voice filled with terror suddenly rose and fell.

"Could it be a senior from the Qi Refining lineage?"

The couple being chased felt as if they had been granted a pardon and immediately shouted, "Please, senior, lend us a hand, for we are both heretics! We have a great secret to tell you!"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the pursuers all changed drastically.

Then they all harnessed their magical artifacts and fled in all directions.

"The Qi Refining School? An unorthodox path?"

Bai Cang muttered something with great interest, and then streaks of blood spirit leaped into the void and pounced on the crowd.

The same applies to the couple who were being hunted.

In the next instant, a great deal of information was transmitted to Bai Cang's heart by the Heavenly Demon Child.

"A Taoist who has ascended to immortality, one of the Seven Heavenly Palaces, a terrestrial immortal?"

Bai Cang muttered to himself, his expression turning somewhat strange.

From everyone's memories, he has pieced together a great deal of information about this world.

Tens of thousands of years ago, this world was called the "Great World of Feathered Ascension," and it was ruled by a "Celestial Immortal" called the "Taoist of Feathered Ascension."

Later, for reasons unknown, the "Ascension Taoist" mysteriously disappeared, and his lineage split into seven branches.

Yangshen Heaven, Yinfu Palace, Five Elements Grotto Heaven.

Among them, Yang Shen Tian Hao is the orthodox one, occupying the former Taoist temple of "Yu Hua Dao Ren": Yu Hua Tian Gong.

As the greatest rival of Yangshentian, Yinfu Palace was at a disadvantage in the struggle and had to hide in the Ten Earths.

The Five Elements Grotto-Heavens, on the other hand, occupied the human world and divided up many spiritual veins and blessed lands.

These are the Seven Heavenly Palaces!

What interests Bai Cang the most is that this world originated from a period of upheaval ten thousand years ago.

That upheaval completely changed the cultivation system of this world.

The Xuanmen Qi cultivation method has completely shifted to the spiritual soul system of disintegration and ascension.

Visualization leads to meditation, the soul leaves the body, and one becomes a Yin spirit, a ghost, or an immortal, or a Yang immortal undergoing tribulation.

The realms of this soul system are surprisingly simple, and progress is extremely rapid.

After completely abandoning the cultivation of "life force" and turning to the cultivation of "spirit" in turn, and with the help of secret methods such as incense offerings, vows, and summoning spirits, one can often ascend to the level of a spirit or ghost immortal in two or three hundred years.

After passing through nine tribulations of lightning, one can transform from yin to pure yang and reach the realm of "true yang"!

If that were all, Bai Cang wouldn't have taken it to heart.

After all, it is difficult for a spirit that has endured countless eons to attain sainthood. To cultivate only one's nature and not one's destiny is the first ailment in spiritual practice.

This method of cultivation, where one is clearly human but treats oneself as a "ghost," will only lead to the highest level of becoming a "ghost god" or "ghost immortal."

In the Great Crimson Heaven, even the most powerful "ghosts and gods" are nothing more than servants of the Xuanmen Qi cultivators, which shows how great the flaws of this system are.

But the strange thing about the cultivation system in this world is this.

After advancing to the Thunder Tribulation Yang True Realm, they "merged with the grotto heavens" and used various grotto heavens as their bodies to cultivate "primordial spirit Dharma forms," ​​which is equivalent to "turning to the righteous path"!

This realm is also known in this world as: Land Immortal, which is quite similar to "Primordial Spirit Dao Lord".

It could also be called: Heretical Primordial Spirit!

Compared to the orthodox primordial spirit, the "land immortal" is naturally far inferior in both cultivation and combat power.

At best, it's just a "fake spirit"!

But no matter what, he's fast!

From everyone's memories, Bai Cang learned that the person who advanced to the Land Immortal Realm the fastest in this world was the "Yang God Heavenly Lord".

It took less than a hundred years from start to finish.

A century to attain the Dao and become a Primordial Spirit? Even a Qi cultivator in the Xuanmen sect wouldn't dare dream of such a thing!

What's even stranger is that the orthodox Xuanmen Qi cultivation path has been labeled as an "outside path" in this world and has been relentlessly hunted down by the "mainstream cultivators" such as the Seven Heavenly Palaces. It is now almost extinct!

"Oh no! Have I become a heretic?"

Bai Cang thought with a strange expression, "I never expected that all the fake primordial spirits that I can't find in the real world are here!"

Just then, a series of explosions rang out!
