In a world of immortals and swordsmen, a young Taoist named Mu Shao'ai loves flying swords, raising poison insects, drawing talismans, and refining pills. Isn't it delightful to live a care...
To be honest, Yang Dingtian's strength was somewhat beyond Bai Cang's expectations.
With a single strike of the "Great Five Elements Yin Yang Yuan Magnetic Universe Starry Sky Extinction Divine Blade", he unleashed his power.
Even the Nine Heavens' Great Qi was cleaved apart, yet Yang Dingtian was almost completely unharmed.
This was something Bai Cang never expected!
Of course, considering that the "land immortals" of this world all take their grotto-heavens as their true form.
Yangshen Heaven is even more special. Apart from the original cave heaven, which is high in the sky, most of the other areas have been integrated with the Nine Heavens Gangfeng Layer.
Once inside the range of the Heavenly Gang Qi, it can almost be considered Yang Shentian's "true body domain," where he can unleash his full power.
Now, almost the entire Nine Heavens Gale Layer has been cleaved open by the "Extinction Divine Blade".
The Yangshen Cave was largely destroyed, so it cannot be said that Yang Dingtian was truly unscathed.
However, as long as the original source of the cave still exists, Yang Dingtian definitely still has the power to fight.
Bai Cang had already unleashed his full power, unleashing the "Great Five Elements Yin Yang Yuan Magnetic Universe Starry Sky Extinction Divine Blade," which could be said to have held nothing back.
On the contrary, it was the side that lost its fighting ability first.
If Yang Dingtian hadn't been scared off, the next one to "collapse and flee" would probably have been "Bai the Great Philanthropist"!
"Fortunately, I had taken away the opponent's Heavenly Dao Weapon and the war artifact that could be used as a mobile array eye in advance, and I also suppressed the artifact spirit of the Transformation Pool."
Bai Cang thought with a bit of luck, "Otherwise, it would be hard to say who would win or lose this battle!"
In Bai Cang's view, Yang Dingtian, under the protection of various restrictions and formations, definitely possessed the strength of a "First Tribulation Dao Lord," completely surpassing the "Five Elements Heavenly Lords" such as Jin Huang Dao Ren.
If Bai Cang hadn't schemed against them and hadn't struck first...
At their peak, the opponent might be able to unleash strength comparable to a "Six Tribulation Dao Lord" or even a "Nine Tribulation Dao Lord".
This is an existence that Bai Cang is currently unable to defeat!
According to the cultivation system of "Da Chitian", in the Suigu Era, which has not yet been further changed and perfected, this is already at the level of "Primordial Spirit Dharma Body"!
In the ancient era, the first realm of the primordial spirit was: incarnation, the second realm was: dharma body, and then came the realm of merging the inner and outer into one!
In the current system of "Great Crimson Heaven", the first realm of the primordial spirit is: to transcend the mortal realm and become an immortal, to live a long and prosperous life.
Then comes the process of passing through the "Nine Tribulations" and "Three Calamities," after which one can achieve inner and outer perfection, unite with the Great Dao, and ascend to the status of "Golden Immortal of the Dao."
Of course, the "Nine Tribulations Dao Lord" is not necessarily weaker than the "Ancient Dharma Body", and the "Three Calamities Dao Lord" is not necessarily stronger than the "Ancient Dharma Body".
Both are practices and preparations made in order to "unite the body with the Great Dao".
However, in terms of the speed of cultivation and the difficulty of advancement, the present is definitely superior to the past.
Moreover, the "Golden Immortal of Harmony with the Dao" is by no means weaker than the "Harmony with the Dao of Ancient Times".
Bai Cang's current cultivation level is probably at the initial stage of attaining Dao Lord, equivalent to the initial stage of entering the incarnation realm of the ancient primordial spirit.
However, if the "Great Five Elements Yin Yang Yuan Magnetic Universe Starry Sky Extinction Divine Blade" is activated, its killing power can be infinitely close to that of the "Three Tribulations Dao Lord", or the level of the initial entry into the Ancient Dharma Body.
With Yang Shen Tian already mostly destroyed and Yang Ding Tian's strength greatly reduced.
Bai Cang estimated that he should be able to roam freely in this world without any fear!
"It's a pity that my divine sword is not yet fully forged. Not only is it lacking in power, but it can only be used but not controlled. It's a waste of such a great resource."
Immediately, Bai Cang looked at the "Yang God Heavenly Realm" gradually being destroyed in the void of earth, water, fire and wind, and couldn't help but sigh again.
This may be the only grotto-heaven formed by the natural world in this realm!
Such places as the Five Elements Grotto Heaven are simply incomparable to it.
If the "Pot Heaven World" could devour it, Bai Cang felt that he would definitely be able to achieve a leap in advancement.
The preface to "A Record of Grotto-Heavens, Blessed Lands, Sacred Mountains, Rivers, and Famous Peaks" states:
When heaven and earth were created, the pure and the impure were separated, merging into rivers and forming mountains, some corresponding to the stars above, others hiding grotto heavens below.
All these affairs are governed by the Great Sage and the True Lord, and thus there are spiritual palaces, secret mansions, jade palaces, and golden platforms.
It may be formed by the condensation of qi, creating clouds; or it may be a jade pool or emerald marsh, filling the four corners; or it may be a tree of pearls and a forest of jade, sparsely scattered upon it.
It is the birthplace of the divine phoenix and flying dragon, and the habitat of the heavenly unicorn and marsh horse.
It may be the path the sun travels, or the place where stars entwine; it contains wind and rain, and harbors clouds and thunder.
It is the pivot of heaven and earth, and the axis of yin and yang.
The meaning of this classic text is: At the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth, when the pure and the impure were separated, the two energies transformed into rivers and mountains, some of which corresponded to stars and constellations, while others were hidden grotto-heavens.
Those who built sacred palaces, secret mansions, jade palaces, and golden terraces in these places have always been great sages, immortals, and divine beings, the rulers of heaven and earth.
This also explains the original source of the paradise on earth.
Some of them are formed by clouds, seemingly fabricated in the sky.
Some are called Jade Pools and Emerald Marshes, scattered across mountains throughout the world.
Some are home to precious pearl trees and jade-like forests, sparsely distributed across the mountains and land.
Such cloud-topped heavens as "Yangshentian" are blessed lands formed at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth.
However, the "Five Elements Grotto Heaven" is merely an artificial grotto heaven that split off from the "Yang God Heaven," drawing spiritual energy and absorbing vast primordial energy from the condensation of the earth's veins.
Simply put, it's the difference between wild and farmed animals!
Only the naturally formed grotto-heavens at the beginning of time can retain the blessings and precious energy of the heavenly palace, which is also the true foundation needed for the "Gourd Heaven World".
The divine phoenix and flying dragon were born here, and the heavenly unicorn and marsh horse lived here.
Some are places traversed by the blazing sun, while others are places surrounded by stars. They contain the great natural forces of wind, rain, clouds, and thunder, and are key locations between heaven and earth, as well as important hubs for the changes of yin and yang.
This last sentence fully explains the immense mystery hidden within the Natural Cave Heaven.
It is the pivot of heaven and earth, the axis of yin and yang!
Enough! Enough!
Yesterday's days cannot be retained; they trouble my heart and bring much sorrow!
Bai Cang only felt a little regretful for a moment before leaping up again and flying towards the "Water Moon Cave".
Anyway, he has already gained enough this time, so there is no need for him to be greedy and insatiable.
He has already captured almost all the essence of the entire "Yang Shen Tian" except for Yang Dingtian himself and the origin of the cave. What more could you ask for?
Before long, Bai Cang returned to his most loyal "Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation".
The Heavenly Demon Child, pale-faced, leaped out of the void and shouted, "Master, I haven't been slacking off at all! In three to five years at most, the Heavenly Golden Platform will be fully formed!"
The so-called Heavenly Golden Platform is the gateway to the blessed land.
Every place with a master cave will seal its doors and lock its doors to strictly protect its own spacetime coordinates.
Unless permitted by the lord of the grotto-heaven, who issues a certificate of ordination and records the aura of one's soul, one can freely enter and exit the grotto-heaven through its guidance.
However, if the connection is close enough, it is not impossible to condense the "Golden Platform in Heaven" and forcibly lock the spacetime coordinates.
Is it essentially the difference between "using a key to open the door" and "breaking in"?
However, Bai Cang didn't seem to care at all when he heard this.
He merely offered a casual word of encouragement to the Heavenly Demon Child before immersing his mind once again in the "Pot Heaven World".
The most urgent task is to take stock of the profits.
Who has time to care about the Water Moon Cave, which is now just "withered bones in a tomb"?
