Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

Having said that, she turned around and without looking back, walked towards the door.

"Miss Ye, please wait."

A voice called out from behind. A glint flashed in Ye Yujiao's eyes, and her expression relaxed somewhat as she turned to face Chu Zheng:

"Has the Holy Master changed his mind?"

"Not at all."

Chu Zheng shook his head, glanced at the table of precious spiritual dishes in front of him, and casually asked:

"Are you still eating? If not, I will take them away; otherwise, it's a bit wasteful."

These dishes were quite valuable and had not been touched yet; wasting them would be shameful.

"As the Holy Master pleases."

For a moment, Ye Yujiao was so amused that she turned and left briskly.

"Thank you for your hospitality."

Chu Zheng packed up all the spiritual dishes from the jade table and strolled down from the Ascension Tower, leisurely making his way back home.

Shortly after, he returned to Taixuan's residence.

In the secret chamber, Song Lingxue was meditating with her eyes closed. Hearing the noise, she slowly opened her eyes.

"Shenmu Pavilion prepared a marriage proposal, hoping to form an alliance with Taixuan, which I rejected."

Without waiting for her to ask, Chu Zheng briefly recounted the situation, took out the spiritual dishes, and said softly:

"Let's eat."

"Why didn't you agree?" Song Lingxue blinked her eyes.

"If you keep playing dumb, I'll really agree." Chu Zheng retorted casually, "Who do you think you're fooling? Do you take me for Ling Qing?"

Song Lingxue stopped speaking, but her lips couldn't help but curl up slightly.

The tolerance Chu Zheng showed her was immensely precious to her.

...

...

South of Wanlong City.

Under the escort of several Divine Infant Cultivators, Ye Yujiao, with a slight anger on her face, hurriedly entered a large hall.

After turning left and right, she finally entered a side hall.

Inside the side hall, an old man with white hair and youthful appearance, dressed in green, sat cross-legged on a jade couch; his skin was rosy and radiant, his eyelids slightly closed.

Ye Family Elder, Ye Huang, a cultivator of the Tongxuan Secret Realm, had survived through two extra-territorial battlefields in a short time.

"Great-grandfather."

Ye Yujiao's mouth was tight as she bowed in respect.

The elder on the jade couch slowly opened his eyes and seeing Ye Yujiao's unchanging expression, he couldn't help but chuckle:

"What? Not satisfied with someone?"

"They think little of Shenmu Pavilion, believing that my pavilion would hold them back."

Ye Yujiao spoke with a hint of sarcasm, "I've truly broadened my horizons today. The lord of a great holy land, too proud for immortal pills, yet can't even bear to let go of a few dishes, taking advantage at every turn, truly shameless."

"Caring about face is the behavior of the weak; the strong should give face to others."

Upon hearing this, Ye Huang's face remained amused as he said softly, "Yujiao, I've told you before, judge people by their actions, not their words. Appearances can cloud your judgement."

"Immortal pills and spiritual medicine, beauty and power, none can sway him; have you ever considered what he truly desires?"

"This..."

Ye Yujiao gradually calmed down, her brow furrowed, and she muttered, "But, great-grandfather, if they're unwilling, surely I can't force myself upon them?"

"I understand your frustration, but there have been consecutive battles abroad recently, many of our elders in Shenmu Pavilion have fallen, and there are only a few young disciples capable of taking on significant responsibilities. Relying solely on you is indeed too much to ask."

Ye Huang's gaze dimmed slightly, "The Ye Family had once produced a superior immortal bone; if it hadn't been for our greed, aiming for the Taixuan Divine Fire Scripture and the Immortal Flame, sending it to Taixuan, perhaps we wouldn't have ended up in this situation."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"There was such a connection between Ye Family and Taixuan?"

Hearing this, Ye Yujiao couldn't help but be surprised; she had never heard anyone mention this matter before.

"That was all happening ten thousand years ago, and now there are very few in the clan who know of it."

Ye Huang sighed softly and fell into deep thought. After a long while, he spoke again:

"Chu Zheng is different from ordinary people. Allow me some more time to observe him before I draw a conclusion."

"I understand, great-grandfather. I will find a way to get closer to him."

Ye Yujiao masked her expression and returned to calmness.

As the sole daughter of a major clan, she had been burdened with a certain mission from the day she was born.

For the prosperity of her family, she could give up many things, including her so-called self.

...

...

In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.

The number of forces willing to form good relations with Taixuan was not small. Many Taixuan disciples had gradually adapted to life inside Wanlong City and had made quite a few acquaintances among fellow cultivators.

It was inevitable that there would be disputes and friction. However, since the Great Tournament hadn't yet started, it was not permitted to fight at will within Wanlong City, so they had to suppress their conflicts, though the tension was already beginning to show.

During this month, Chu Zheng hadn't left the secret chamber for a single step, constantly focusing on recovering his cultivation.

During this time, his cultivation steadily recovered and had already reached the sixth transformation of Divine Infant and was still growing, progressing towards the seventh transformation.

He could feel that far across the starry sky, there were still believers praying for him, and the incense fire willpower was increasing day by day.

The brilliant spiritual light he had felt that day had only destroyed the Immortal Serpent Star and a few nearby Life Stars. He still had many believers scattered across the star domain governed by the Divine Court.

With these believers spreading his teachings, the number of his followers would soon recover.

According to the message transmitted through the Incense Flame Golden Body that day, the incident had alerted a Great Emperor within the Divine Court.

The Emperor seemed to have taken action himself, slaying several powerful beings, but their exact origins were still uncertain.

With more than a year left until the Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects, Chu Zheng did not plan to waste it.

After adjusting himself to his peak condition, he left part of his consciousness within his main body and once again employed the Star Capturing Heaven Method.

A year in Cangyun equals a hundred years within the Chaos Sea, he had ample time to advance further, to elevate his cultivation even more, to reach Golden Core Completion and possibly to Refine Spirit or continue to elevate his Immortal Path Cultivation and enter Tong Xuan Secret Realm...

As the power of his Spirit and Soul grew, Chu Zheng found the Star Capturing Heaven Method increasingly effortless to use, and it hardly consumed much Qi Strength; he soon found a dazzling star path.

At the other end of the star path was a vast continent, round as the heavens and square as the earth, not a Life Star, somewhat similar to the Cangyun Realm.

Your journey continues with empire

...

Dong Yuan Realm.

The sky bore three suns and six moons that rotated, divided among the Nine Domains and Thirteen Wastes.

This realm was a mix of fish and dragons, where various kinds of savage beasts predominated, occupying most of the land; the Human Race only occupied less than a quarter of the territory.

These creatures, known as savage beasts in this realm, were inherently violent and unpredictable, incapable of communicating with humans, and often a savage beast would leave the Barren Domain and enter various domains to slaughter and hunt.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this realm was richer than the present Cangyun Realm, yet the Taoist orthodoxy for cultivation was different from any Chu Zheng had previously encountered.

From the day they were born, children of this realm were marked with indelible totem imprints made of wild beast true blood by their elders on their bodies.

With these totems on their bodies, cultivators could invoke mystic forces, connect with heaven and earth, and thereby execute divine secret skills.

This method was greatly limited; those who could become powerful were ultimately few, and the situation of the Human Race was still precarious.

Chu Zheng's Divine Soul wandered the skies and soon found on a desolate piece of land the remains of a half-body.

A boy, not yet four years old, with lifeless eyes, his lower body from the waist below gone, ribs exposed, his organs mixed with clotted blood scattered around.

Nearby were many other bones, mostly incomplete, clearly fallen victims to a savage beast attack.

A flash of Spiritual Light passed, and Chu Zheng entered the boy's brow, and the repair process quickly began, regenerating the mutilated body.

Breathing out——

Moments later, the repair was complete, and Chu Zheng exhaled a breath of Turbid Qi and fell into contemplation.

Here, he could have enough time to slowly grow his cultivation and... develop his own followers.
