Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

The space-time marrow crystal in the palm began to shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye, dimming, fully integrating into the newly born space-time meridians within Chu Zheng. With each passing breath, his understanding of the space-time laws deepened further.

Space-time domain, first glimpse of the path!

This crystal, derived from the blood marrow of a mythical realm creature, ignited the first spark of space-time law within Chu Zheng.

When the last bit of marrow crystal fully merged into Chu Zheng's palm, there was a sudden disturbance deep within his divine soul.

Three immortal marks manifested successively, gradually showing signs of fusion.

Chu Zheng awoke from his comprehension of the space-time laws and immediately used them as a furnace, drawing the three immortal marks into it and beginning the smelting process.

The three immortal marks, under the catalysis and harmonization of space-time power, began to vibrate violently and resonate. The distinct law boundaries between them started to blur under the might of space-time, gradually merging. Numerous immortal dao runes, embodying the sharp true intentions of myriad laws, peeled off from the immortal marks, rising and beginning to integrate at the center of the furnace forged by space-time laws.

Forging of dao marks into a dao seal, even with the assistance of space-time laws, requires an extremely long process.

At this point, the energy of a single marrow crystal was becoming inadequate. Chu Zheng did not hesitate and immediately took out the remaining marrow crystal, starting the refinement again.

Old power has not yet faded, new power regenerates, and the three ancient lotuses standing on the sea of consciousness all responded.

The three dao flowers bloomed in the three realms of the Mysterious Immortal, symbolizing Chu Zheng's physical form, blood qi, and divine intent.

Now, driven by the space-time law, these three ancient lotuses began to approach each other, petals unfolding, faintly beginning to merge.

Under Chu Zheng's control, the space-time law once again condensed into a furnace, incorporating the three ancient lotuses into it.

Bang!

The three ancient lotuses were instantly torn into pieces by the violent space-time laws, starting to circulate within the furnace.

Threads of three-colored brilliance intertwined like threads. Chu Zheng's divine sense manifested in the sea of consciousness, watching the two furnaces before him. In his pupils, the boiling furnace fire, gathered by space-time laws, reflected, his physical form seemingly shattering, everything being reorganized.

Time passed in an instant, and the furnace refining the immortal marks reacted first.

Buzz—

A pulsating dao sound echoed from the deepest part of Chu Zheng's being, deep and distant as if traversing ancient years, resonating within him.

Silvery-gray starlight circulated at Chu Zheng's heart, lingering like thin mist, the ancient and plain immortal seal slowly taking shape, every line seeming to pulse with life, resonating with his heartbeat.

After a few breaths, the brightness of the immortal seal gradually restrained, finally becoming a shallow mark imprinted on Chu Zheng's chest.

This is the immortal seal.

With the immortal seal in place, it had already signified that Chu Zheng's cultivation had stepped into the Immortal Monarch realm.

This process was far smoother than Chu Zheng had anticipated, not even encountering the slightest obstruction.

Not long after the immortal seal was condensed, the furnace holding the three ancient lotuses also reacted.

The furnace cracked inch by inch, the three ancient lotuses no longer visible, only five streams of clear energy in blue, red, yellow, white, and black emerged from the sea of consciousness, diving straight down to the five organs.

The Qi Refining Lineage, since the beginning of cultivation, builds jade bone, gathers dao embryo, condenses golden core, transforms yang god, to three flowers gathering at the top from bottom to top.

At the Golden Immortal step, it is from top to bottom, like re-traveling the cultivation path, the three flowers shatter and return to the roots of the five elements, nourishing the five qi in the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys, which is five qi towards yuan.

When the five qi reached Chu Zheng's organs, they quickly showed five indistinct blurry marks on them; these are the Qi Refining Dao Seals.

When the five qi reach completion, mixed yuan unity, it is the Golden Immortal realm.

Immortal Dao Immortal Monarch, Qi Refining Golden Immortal!

Under the impetus of the essence left by two mythical realm creatures, Chu Zheng finally took this step, advancing both paths simultaneously, immediately after the repair panel, entering the Tenth Order, entering the supreme domain.

Chu Zheng slowly opened his eyes, chaos opening and closing in his gaze. With the surging yuan qi around him, there was already a field capable of distorting space and solidifying time.

The changes brought by having two dao seals in hand were far greater than he imagined.

Now, even he couldn't accurately measure the extent of his combat power.

Chu Zheng slowly rose to his feet, taking a long breath. The world before him once again transformed in his eyes.

The traces of space-time were laid bare.

Through the void, he vaguely saw a long river flowing overhead, seemingly within reach, occasionally witnessing flashes of light streak across it.

Those were powerful beings crossing space-time, at least those who had stepped into the Ancestral Realm.

Chu Zheng retracted his gaze and looked around.

The energy contained within the two space-time marrow realms was too abundant, and the Cave Heaven World had already expanded ten times over.

Between heaven and earth, there were already Ninth Order otherkind creatures, with the strongest among them capable of rivaling a Great Immortal Venerable.

Chu Zheng looked at the world before him, remaining silent for a long time, taking a step forward to once again arrive at the center of the Cave Heaven World.

The appearance of this place had undergone a monumental change, with several peaks having been moved here.

Divine Peaks like swords pierced through the sea of clouds, a wooden nest hanging at the summit, with ironwood as its bones and vines as its muscles, unmoving in the fierce aura wind. A few feathers lay scattered at the edge of the nest, each reflecting seven-color rainbow light, emanating strong energy fluctuations.

Chu Zheng slowly approached above the wooden nest, and as he got closer, he heard the chirping of young birds.

Deep within the wooden nest, three fledgling birds with downy feathers were vying for a fragment of flood dragon spine, tearing the slightly greenish tendons and bones with bloodstained sharp beaks, extracting the essence within.

Though fledglings, their wingspan already approached ten zhang, yet their wings were not fully developed, unable to fly.

Chu Zheng glanced briefly and entered the array at the foot of the Divine Peak.

This small isolated land had become somewhat incongruent with the outside world.

Several more wooden huts had been added to the original, with fields planted with numerous spiritual flowers and exotic herbs.

A figure in white stood amidst the fields, slender and graceful like new bamboo under fresh snow, swaying beside them was a nine-color begonia.

The woman slightly turned her side, revealing an impeccable side profile, skin whiter than snow, features so exquisite they didn't seem mundane, possessing a unique ethereal and pure quality, her eyes reflecting centuries of spiritual wisdom and tranquility, pupils clear and transparent like glazed glass, with a vermilion mark on her brow, vivid and striking.

Chu Zheng immediately recognized the woman's origin; this was the spirit deer that was once by Bai Nian's side.

In the great changes of heaven and earth, this white deer gained the favor of the Heavenly Dao once again, receiving immense benefits, achieving transformation without a teacher, and stepping into the Ninth Order.

This transformation technique is immensely difficult without someone to teach it beforehand, making it remarkable that this woman could reach this point.

Aware of Chu Zheng's arrival, the woman was startled, kneeling and bowing deeply in worship:

"Heaven above."

To the creatures born in this world, Chu Zheng was like the high heavens, beyond any offense.

Hearing this title, Chu Zheng was somewhat surprised, glancing at her briefly without speaking further and walked past her directly into the wooden house.

Bai Nian sat before a wooden bench, copying an ancient book.

Chu Zheng took a glance; it was an ancient biography, an autobiography of an immortal path cultivator.

Bai Nian lifted her head, saw Chu Zheng's arrival, got up, and saluted:

"Master."

Chu Zheng nodded, casually inquiring, "How long has it been since we last met?"

"Two hundred seventy-five years, six months, and nine days."

Nearly three hundred years...

Chu Zheng subconsciously shook his head, finding himself increasingly insensitive to the passage of time; over two hundred years felt as though it was just yesterday.

After asking about the time, he did not linger much longer, turning and leaving the Cave Heaven World.

In the Great Universe, significant time had likely passed, possibly with new changes occurring.

Just after stepping out of the Cave Heaven World, dozens of messages surged forth from Chu Zheng's Heavenly Judgment Order.

These messages were blocked by the barriers of space-time laws, not reaching Chu Zheng, intercepted outside.

After reading all the messages, Chu Zheng frowned, his expression showing a hint of seriousness.

During the years he spent in seclusion, the Dao War had already begun.
