"boom!"

With a thought, Bai Cang caused countless densely packed golden and silver light spots to appear throughout the entire Heavenly Palace, weaving together into an extremely complex and magnificent array.

Within each point of light, countless tiny inscriptions flow.

The grand array, interwoven with billions of points of light, seemed to connect the entire Nine Heavens Immortal Realm, forming an ancient and desolate altar that housed Bai Cang's figure.

"boom!"

The next moment.

As the ancient aura permeated the air, Bai Cang transformed into a bronze cauldron, which sat atop the gold and silver altar.

Nine illusory gods simultaneously lowered their gazes, attempting to weave together the illusion of the bronze cauldron, only to discover that Bai Cang had already "taken their place."

It immediately transformed into nine ancient seal characters, which were imprinted on Bai Cang's body.

"Boom!"

The next moment.

Bai Cang activated the "Huangji Jingshi Shu" (Book of Supreme Ultimate Governing the World), causing the Yin and Yang Qi, the Tai Su Bai Qi (Primordial White Qi), and the Xuanhuang Mu Qi (Mysterious Yellow Mother Qi) to manifest one after another, weaving together to create a chaotic world.

Boundless, formless, and soundless, it is a unified whole.

A touch of ancient charm lingers within.

Various primordial phenomena, such as Taiji, Taisu, and Taishi, continuously evolve within it.

"boom!"

Immediately afterwards, Bai Cang also poured the refined "Primordial Pure Qi" into it, which intertwined with the Yin and Yang Qi, the Primordial White Qi, and the Xuanhuang Mother Qi, outlining the phantom of a miniature universe.

From Taiji to Taisu, from Taisu to Taishi, and then directly skipping Taichu, directly evolving into the image of Taiyi.

Thanks to the addition of "Primordial Pure Qi," this miniature universe did not collapse directly.

Instead, the image of Taiyi naturally evolved from it.

However, Bai Cang always felt that the Taiyi image he had evolved was somewhat ambiguous, giving people an indescribable sense of awkwardness.

It seems to have no compatibility with Taiji, Taisu, or Taishi, and is full of discordant fallacies, standing apart from all other phenomena.

Bai Cang knew that this was not an illusion, but rather a misconception that could not be understood.

A single breath of "innate pure qi" is far from enough for him to comprehend the "Tao of Taiyi".

However, Bai Cang was not in a hurry: the grand formation of the Heavenly Palace of the Universe was his greatest opportunity.

The Heavenly Palace of the Universe, in conjunction with the Mountain and River Cauldron, can refine a breath of "Primordial Pure Qi".

The operating method described must also be in line with the evolutionary process of the "Five Primordial Qi".

Now, Bai Cang has mastered the three paths of Taiji, Taisu, and Taishi, and has evolved "Yin Yang Qi", "Taisu Bai Qi" and "Xuanhuang Mu Qi". He also has a mouthful of "Primordial Pure Qi" in hand, and has already met the basic conditions for refining "Primordial Pure Qi".

What he needs to do next is to master the method of refining and evolving "Primordial Pure Qi" through countless trials and errors.

Then, by proceeding in both forward and reverse directions, the method of refining and evolving "Primordial Purple Qi" was deduced.

With all five innate energies present, one can then comprehend and deduce the two paths of "Tai Chu" and "Tai Yi" with greater efficiency.

In other words, the opportunity to align with the Tao is right before your eyes.

All he has to do next is try and fail.

No matter how much effort or time it takes, as long as the direction is right, success will come sooner or later.

As for the other plans and matters, they can all be ignored in the face of the opportunity to achieve harmony with the Dao, and are not worth mentioning at all.

All you need to do is go to Jietian Pass to "serve" within a hundred years!

With that thought in mind, Bai Cang immediately put aside all other thoughts and entered a state of focused seclusion.

Meanwhile, in the Nine Heavens Wonderland, there was a mysterious void.

Beneath a twin tree fern, the Taoist Zhenru and the Taoist Zhenkong sat facing each other.

"Senior brother is indeed incredibly insightful. That kid, having obtained that innate pure qi, is truly not satisfied. He is currently in seclusion in the Heavenly Palace of the Universe."

The Vacuum Daoist laughed and said, "It's probably not completely hopeless. This kid is basically tied to our Fangcun Mountain."

The Taoist Master Zhenru stroked his beard and smiled with a hint of pride, “That’s very good. Now I can go into seclusion in peace.”

The next time Junior Brother Zhenjue comes knocking, you don't need to bother him. Just deal with him as usual.

When he is disturbed to the point that he can no longer cultivate in seclusion, he will naturally take action to expel Junior Brother Zhenjue.

In fact, the Taoist Master Zhenru had something on his mind that he didn't say aloud.

Given Bai Cang's temperament, if his seclusion were disturbed, it wouldn't be as simple as just being expelled.

Who knows, in a fit of anger, he might kill "Junior Brother Zhenjue" on the spot.

This will relieve their worries about Fangcun Mountain!

After all, although "Junior Brother Zhenjue" broke away from the sect, in the eyes of the patriarchs, he was more like the orthodox successor than Fangcun Mountain.

Without the support of the patriarchs of all generations, how could the Xieyue Sanxing Cave have achieved the grandeur of "one sect with three Daoist masters" in such a short period of time?

If "Junior Brother Zhenjue" truly possessed such abilities, he wouldn't have been schemed against by him in the first place, and wouldn't have broken away from the sect in a fit of anger to establish his own lineage.

If Bai Cang were here, he would definitely blurt out a witty remark.

I know this one well, it's just "two chairpersons" and "Xinhe Liansheng"!

If it were merely a matter of "two people in charge" and "Xinhe Liansheng," then the Taoist priest might not find it unacceptable.

After all, he wasn't particularly interested in the position of sect leader.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have entrusted all the affairs of Fangcun Mountain to the Vacuum Taoist over the years.

His sole objective was to "seize" the body of the Illusory Realm of the Great Void and merge with the "Primordial Great Void Dao," and everything else was to be discarded.

The key issue is that the other party doesn't even want to give him the opportunity to be a "dual leader," and is determined to "get to the root of the problem" and remove him from his position as the leader of Fangcun Mountain.

If that doesn't work, I'd rather destroy Fangcun Mountain and leave only "Xieyue Sanxing Cave".

The support and tacit approval of the patriarchs throughout history also demonstrated their attitude.

If only one of Fangcun Mountain and Xieyue Sanxing Cave can be kept.

They will not hesitate to merge Fangcun Mountain into the lineage of "Xieyue Sanxing Cave".

Without the permission of the Seven Phoenixes, no being of the Dao Integration level or above may enter the Great Crimson Heaven without authorization.

He has probably already been killed by some patriarch in the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm.

Therefore, it wasn't that he, like the Taoist, insisted on "betraying" Fangcun Mountain and inviting Bai Cang, this "hungry wolf," into the house.

Rather, he had no other choice but to fight to the death!

However, the Taoist priest could not openly reveal these dark thoughts to anyone.

Especially regarding the "Device Taoist," a staunch supporter, not a single detail can be revealed.

So he added, "Shuangrong's primordial spirit ceremony will proceed as scheduled; there's no need to disturb Fellow Daoist Bai!"

Before he finished speaking, the figure of the Taoist priest vanished like a dream.

What he didn't notice was that a strange look also flashed in the closed eyelids of the Vacuum Daoist.

"Senior Brother Zhenru, do you really think I don't know what you're planning?"

The Daoist of Emptiness chuckled inwardly, but had no other thoughts.

He doesn't care who is in charge; he only cares about whether he can hold onto power.

If "Brother Zhenru" didn't have such rebellious thoughts, how could he be appointed as the "leader" in name only?

"That kid is indeed a powerful ally now, but he might cause some trouble later!"

Thinking this through, the Vacuum Daoist couldn't help but ponder it again.

"If he intends to support my junior disciple Shuangrong to take control of Fangcun Mountain, how should I position myself?"

unless……

Suddenly, a bold idea flashed through the mind of the Vacuum Daoist!
