Chapter 58 Reconstructing the Earth's Veins
Time flies, and years pass in the blink of an eye.
Mo Yuan's energy and spirit returned to their peak. He put away the enlightenment futon, glanced at Lei Kui who was still cultivating in peace, and then followed the Styx River toward the Soul-Severing Ravine.
"The Netherworld Qi is obscure and mysterious. When I used the Qilin Clan's Heavenly Dao Luck to improve my cultivation and possessed the Kunyu Eye, I could refine it into my own magic power, but I can't do that now."
Mo Yuan spoke softly, his tone tinged with regret.
Then, he remembered the Chaos Demon God of Reincarnation.
After this powerful being fell, the Heavenly Dao did not immediately bestow Heavenly Merit. As for the reason, Mo Yuan naturally knew it.
Only by transforming Youdu Mountain into a blessed land and then making a vow to Heaven to report this matter to the Lord of Heaven can one's merits be considered complete.
While Mo Yuan was pondering, he had already arrived at the Soul-Severing Gorge.
The malevolent energy here is incredibly dense, resembling a surging sea of clouds.
Under the constraints of the great power of heaven and earth, the evil energy of heaven and earth could only be trapped in the Soul-Severing Ravine, while the beast kings such as Aohun lay prostrate among the rocks, breathing in and out the evil energy of heaven and earth.
"After the primordial world was created by the great god Pangu, the ferocious beast race arose under the great trend, and then the great calamity of ferocious beasts was set off, causing endless killing in the world."
"Who could have imagined that the once mighty overlords of the primordial world would now have only a few members left?"
A complex expression flickered in Mo Yuan's eyes. He shook his head and sighed softly.
The fates of the ferocious beast clan, the dragon and Han clans, and the future of the demon clan's heavenly court, the immortal court of Zifu Continent, and the witch clan will be much the same.
This is the inevitable trend, and also the price to pay for pursuing the position of the supreme ruler of heaven and earth.
Lei Kui is in charge of the Killing Prison and leads the ferocious beast clan. The other seven beast kings are all at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm.
Besides Aohun, the other six beast kings are named Yayu, Jiaohuayu, Zhuyan, Guizheng, Dangkang, and Yingyu.
During the era of the Great Calamity of Ferocious Beasts, names like Aohun and Yayu were actually titles for a certain tribe of ferocious beasts. However, now that the ferocious beast tribe has declined, these titles have become the names of these beast kings.
For example, Lei Kui came from the Kui ethnic group.
Because of his affinity with thunder, after attaining the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, he called himself Lei Kui.
"The Yayu once frightened Fellow Daoist Jin Chanzi so much that he used the Golden Cicada Stealing the Sky Technique to escape from Youdu Mountain. At that time, he should have been at the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm."
The Yayu has the head of a dragon and the body of a snake, with red scales like branding iron. Bone spurs grow backward under its jaw, and its eyes are two pools of congealed blood. Wherever its gaze passes, black frost grows on the rock walls, which then decay and disintegrate.
Flame-like tiger stripes appeared and disappeared on the body of the Yayu. Its four feet were neither hooves nor claws, but hard, bluish-black bones tempered with the turbid air of the earth, giving people a feeling of being completely paralyzed.
The remaining beast kings, such as the cunning Yu and Zhu Yan, also all looked ruthless and ferocious.
In comparison, the fierce-looking one is still the most pleasing to the eye.
"Once we return to Qilin Cliff, I need to refine a few more Rank 3 Golden Pills. I absolutely must help Aohun raise his cultivation to the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal."
"When I travel through the prehistoric world, having such a powerful beast king as my bodyguard will be enough to deter those ignorant villains and save me a lot of trouble."
"Or, I could leave Aohun at Qilin Cliff; he can protect this blessed land for me..."
Mo Yuan raised his forelimb and gently touched Aohun's brow. He then infused Aohun's primordial spirit with some secret techniques and supernatural abilities from the Earthly Dao Ancestral Qi Scripture that were suitable for him.
Ao opened its eyes and saw that it was Mo Yuan. It gently rubbed its head against Mo Yuan's forelegs, and then continued to cultivate diligently, its aura becoming relatively peaceful.
Mo Yuan smiled, left the Broken Soul Ravine, and appeared at the summit of Youdu Mountain.
Upon closer inspection, Jin Chanzi exuded a surging aura, carrying a faint killing intent, while his cultivation had already reached the late stage of the Golden Immortal realm.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Jin Chanzi, on your progress in cultivation."
Mo Yuan looked Jin Chanzi up and down and said in a gentle tone.
"Yu Jing and the four clans of Beihai have already learned the whole story of the Thunderfire Purgatory. They dare not personally step onto the Crossing the Nether Bridge to come to Youdu Mountain, but they have set up many restrictions on the North Sea and occasionally send some minions to try to spy on this place."
"Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan, would you like me to join you in storming the North Sea and fighting them to the death?"
Jin Chanzi's tone was chilling as he explained everything to Mo Yuan.
Lei Kui descended upon the world, wielding the power of the Thunderfire Purgatory. Thirty-six tainted stars crumbled, forcing the Shadow Clan to scatter and flee. Thus, Lei Kui and Mo Yuan formed a karmic bond with the Shadow Clan.
Moreover, the extraordinary phenomena created by the Thunderfire Purgatory were incredibly magnificent. As the ruler of the North Sea, Yu Jing naturally became suspicious. Therefore, he joined forces with the four clans of the North Sea and has now sealed off the North Sea.
Jin Chanzi disliked the spying of those demon minions, so he unusually went on a killing spree, which is why he was surrounded by a murderous aura and a murderous intent.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yuan smiled calmly and said, "Yu Jing and the four clans of Beihai have been entrenched in the Beihai territory for a long time. If they want to wait for us outside the Duyou Bridge, then let them be!"
"Fellow Daoist Lei Kui will need at least several hundred years to reconstruct his body and restore his cultivation. During this time, I will reconstruct the earth veins of Youdu Mountain and transform it into a blessed land."
"If Fellow Daoist Jin Chanzi is interested, please lend me your services!"
After slaying the Chaos Demon God of Reincarnation, Jin Chanzi could only stand by and watch Lei Kui and him wreak havoc. Now that the Youdu Mountain veins have been reconstructed, Jin Chanzi should at least get a share of the spoils.
As I said before, Mo Yuan will not enjoy this glory alone.
Jin Chanzi gifted him the molted shell of a six-winged golden cicada and followed him to explore Youdu Mountain and the Nine Netherworlds. He should rightfully receive some of the Heavenly Dao's merits, so this trip would not have been in vain.
"Excellent!"
Jin Chanzi made a quick decision and agreed without hesitation.
Reconstructing the ley lines of Youdu Mountain and turning this place into a blessed land is a matter that would benefit the primordial world, so how could he miss such an opportunity?
Having previously used the Earth Resonance Technique, Mo Yuan had already thoroughly investigated the geomantic and spiritual vein patterns of Youdu Mountain.
This vast continent, spanning hundreds of millions of miles, has different ley lines and spiritual veins than the other blessed lands that Mo Yuan has seen. It is not deep in the earth or within the mountains, but is located at the junction of the sky and the waters of the North Sea.
Part of Youdu Mountain is connected to the bottom of the North Sea, while the rest is submerged in the Nine Netherworlds.
It is precisely because of the unique nature of the earth's veins and spiritual veins that a vacuum zone of thousands of miles exists, preventing the waters of the North Sea from flooding Youdu Mountain.
"Fellow Daoist Jin Chanzi, follow me!"
Mo Yuan connected with the great power of heaven and earth, and together with Jin Chanzi, they soared into the sky.
As they approached the waters of the North Sea, both Mo Yuan and Jin Chanzi sensed the thick, turbid earth energy and the essence of the Wu Earth, and they also saw the earth veins and spiritual veins within the dark sky.
"So that's how it is!"
Jin Chanzi's eyes lit up; he suddenly realized.
Youdu Mountain connects the primordial world with the Nine Netherworlds. Its sky is the primordial continent, where spatial turbulence surges, and the spiritual veins draw spiritual energy from the waters of the North Sea.
"Fellow Daoist Jin Chanzi, since you wield the Golden Cicada Stealing Heaven Technique, you must have gained some insights into the Dao of Space. I will now teach you the method to suppress spatial turbulence, and I ask for your assistance."
The spatial turbulence affects the earth's veins and spiritual veins, and at the same time, it constantly spews out obscure energy and malevolent energy from heaven and earth. If it is not quelled, all of Mo Yuan's efforts will be in vain.
The legacy of the First Qilin records three spatial arrays. Mo Yuan had previously comprehended all of these arrays while writing the Primordial Mirror, and added his own understanding to create a Mustard Seed Locking Space Array.
The Mustard Seed Locking Void Array possesses the power to suppress the universe and quell spatial turbulence.
As they spoke, Mo Yuan took out a jade slip and handed it to Jin Chanzi.
"Its mystery is truly extraordinary; this humble Taoist is ashamed!"
"Fellow Daoist Mo Yuan, leave those spatial turbulence to me!"
Jin Chanzi probed the jade slip with his divine sense and was immediately shocked by Mo Yuan's ideas. At the same time, he also confirmed one fact: Mo Yuan's understanding of array formations was extraordinary.
soon.
Following Mo Yuan's method, Jin Chanzi used his magic power to condense array divine runes, and then used the Golden Cicada Stealing the Sky Technique to step into the spatial turbulence, embedding countless array divine runes into it.
"Mustard Seed Void Lock Formation, complete!"
Jin Chanzi gave a soft shout, and a six-winged golden cicada phantom appeared behind him.
The previously turbulent and violent spatial currents immediately subsided, and the malevolent and obscure energy of heaven and earth disappeared.
Within just a few hours, the spatial turbulence was suppressed, and only the pure spatial energy returned to the world.
"The Mustard Seed Locking Void Array is truly profound. It imprisons an extremely vast area with an extremely tiny point. Spatial turbulence is confined and then crushed into nothingness by this array. Afterward, the spatial energy can be fed back to heaven and earth."
"There are thousands of spatial turbulences in the veins of Youdu Mountain. Once they are all resolved, the world of Youdu Mountain will be more stable. Even a Taiyi Golden Immortal will not be able to force his way in. He can only reach Youdu Mountain by crossing the Youdu Bridge."
Jin Chanzi's face lit up with joy as he excitedly addressed Mo Yuan.
Once all the spatial turbulence is suppressed, his understanding of the Mustard Seed Locking Formation will reach its peak. In the future, no matter what powerful enemy he faces, he will be able to use this formation to seal off space and annihilate them.
If possessing the Golden Cicada Stealing Heaven Technique gave Jin Chanzi the confidence to escape from the clutches of the Taiyi Golden Immortal.
Therefore, after mastering the Mustard Seed Locking Formation, he will be able to fight across minor realms.
Even when facing a powerful enemy at the early stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal, he can use the Mustard Seed Locking Formation to slow down their speed. Coupled with the Golden Cicada Stealing the Sky Technique, he can be said to be able to go anywhere, whether it's to heaven or earth.
"Fellow Daoist Jin Chanzi, calm down!"
Mo Yuan said calmly.
In the legacy of the Primordial Qilin, there are only three spatial arrays: the Myriad Laws Silent Void Array, the Universal Heavenly Net Array, and the Boundless Void Array. All of them were obtained by the Primordial Qilin from Ancestor Yangmei.
To set up these three spatial arrays, one must reach the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm and find many treasures such as Void Divine Stones, Taiyu Yuan Magnets, and Boundary Void Crystal Cores.
Mo Yuan's understanding of these three spatial arrays was rather superficial. Later, he used the Universal Net as a prototype and combined it with the unique features of Jin Chanzi to create the Mustard Seed Locking Space Array.
While Jin Chanzi continued to condense the array's divine runes to suppress the spatial turbulence with the Mustard Seed Locking Void Array, Mo Yuan turned his attention to the earth veins and spiritual veins of Youdu Mountain.
Youdu Mountain was formed from one of the eyes of the Chaos Demon God of Reincarnation. Therefore, the laws of reincarnation roam freely in the earth veins of Youdu Mountain. The earth veins are relatively scattered, like meridians, giving a sense of chaos.
"The Six Paths Grotto of the Chaos Demon God of Reincarnation is mysterious and unpredictable. If the earth veins of Youdu Mountain are recombined based on it and then tempered with the energy of the Netherworld, the earth veins of Youdu Mountain will undergo earth-shattering changes."
"As for those spiritual veins, I will connect them to the Crossing Bridge, so that the spiritual veins will be able to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth more quickly."
Mo Yuan's style of doing things is to plan before acting; he had already planned everything out.
With just a slight movement of his divine sense, Mo Yuan took control of the immense power of heaven and earth in Youdu Mountain and the Nine Nether Lands. He circulated the Earth Dao Ancestral Qi Scripture and, with the support of the immense power of heaven and earth, began to reconstruct the earth veins.
The Netherworld Qi surged forth from the Nine Netherworlds, and was then refined into the earth's veins by him using the Qilin True Fire. Afterward, this Netherworld Qi began to resonate with the Law of Reincarnation, and occasionally, dark golden light would flash.
The earth's veins in Youdu Mountain began to change, and the outlines of the Six Paths Grotto-Heavens could be seen.
Life goes on and on, and everything is interconnected.
Under Mo Yuan's manipulation, those spiritual veins were effortlessly connected to the Crossing the Netherworld Bridge, and instantly a massive amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth erupted, filling the space between Youdu Mountain and the heavens and earth.
Crossing the Netherworld Bridge, Netherworld Mountain, Soul-Severing Stream, River Styx.
They are interconnected, leading directly to the Netherworld.
Youdu Mountain is more than just a blessed land.
It will be an important passage between the underworld and the primordial world.
