This place, nourished by various spiritual herbs granted by the “Fortune-Blessed Immortal Lord” entry, had increasingly dense spiritual energy, greatly benefiting cultivation.

Thus, another year passed.

On this day, the effect of the “Fortune-Blessed Immortal Lord · Red” entry was triggered.

【You have obtained a Deep Sea Azure Dragon Egg!】

【Deep Sea Azure Dragon Egg: Originating from a mid-tier world abundant in water element, it was laid by a variant descendant of the Azure Ocean Divine Dragon. Upon hatching, it yields a young Azure Dragon with a natural affinity for controlling water and considerable potential.】

With a thought, a giant egg, entirely azure-blue and nearly half a meter tall, appeared in Gu Yan’s hand.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He had vaguely felt before that this entry might one day produce a living being—he had not expected that day to truly come.

Although for now, it was only a dragon egg.

But now a problem arose—how was this thing supposed to be hatched?

Gu Yan did not hesitate much and casually placed the dragon egg beside the most spiritually rich medicinal field within the cave abode.

If it could absorb spiritual energy and hatch on its own, then it was fated.

If not, it would serve as a decoration.

To Gu Yan, his own cultivation was always the top priority.

Even if this dragon egg hatched, it would merely be a spirit pet with decent potential or a future helper.

Compared to immediate improvements in strength, its priority naturally came later.

However, this acquisition also reminded him once more—

Through the “Fortune-Blessed Immortal Lord” red entry, he had gradually learned of the existence of the Spirit Realm and mid-tier worlds.

Most of the items he obtained originated from the Spirit Realm, with occasional ones—like this dragon egg—marked as coming from certain mid-tier worlds.

As thoughts surged, Gu Yan concluded that no matter what, he had to accelerate his cultivation progress.

Although he was currently the strongest in this world, what if one day someone descended from above?

With this thought, he cast aside distractions and once again entered seclusion.

……

Two years passed in the blink of an eye.

A message came from outside the cave abode—Sect Master Daoist Xuanchen and Supreme Elder Yunchenzi had returned from the Central Province.

Now, within the Great Qian Dynasty, the most prominent force was none other than the Heaven and Earth Great Love Unity Alliance.

Under deliberate low-profile conduct and behind-the-scenes operation, the Taiyi Dao Sect had gradually faded from the discussions of martial cultivators and common people.

The two external incarnations had also each made progress.

The Good Body, Fang Yuan, remained stationed in the Central Province. While managing alliance affairs, he had also dispatched people to build ships.

They systematically explored and mapped coastal and distant seas, aiming to gradually clarify the geographical outline of this world.

Meanwhile, the Evil Body, Nether Soul, drifted and explored within the Endless Sea.

The vastness of the sea truly lived up to its name—endless.

Even with roughly seventy percent of the original body’s Nascent Soul Third Layer strength, after several years, he still had not reached its boundaries.

However, it was not without gains.

On some remote islands, Nether Soul discovered traces of certain peculiar races.

He had not seen them in the Hundred Thousand Mountains before, yet encountered them upon this boundless ocean.

These races possessed partial beast-like characteristics—some had sharp ears and slender tails, others had bodies covered in scales.

They resembled the demon races recorded in ancient texts, yet were not ferocious. Instead, each had its own rudimentary form of civilization.

This scene further convinced both Nether Soul and Gu Yan, who was connected to him—

This world was far from as simple as it appeared.

How could a purely martial world give birth to such diverse races?

And how could mortal martial artists step into the Sixth Revolution and gain five hundred years of lifespan, the Seventh Revolution a thousand years, and the Eighth even two thousand?

Yet the deeper secrets seemed hidden extremely well.

For the time being, Nether Soul could not find more conclusive clues.

So he stopped rushing and slowed his pace.

He began experiencing the customs and cultures of these sea races.

……

Ten years later.

Nether Soul had long grown accustomed to drifting in the depths of the Endless Sea.

At times, he tempered his body within storms; at others, he observed the rituals of foreign races on isolated islands.

Occasionally, on a whim, he would disguise himself as a being with a shark-like tail, mingle into half-demon tribes, ask for a bowl of fish soup, and listen to ancient legends.

On this day, he arrived at an island called Radiant Glow Island by the Scale-Tail Clan.

The island’s volcano was shrouded year-round in a faint red mist. At sunset, clouds burned like flames, reflecting brilliantly across the sea.

The islanders made a living by collecting fire crystals from volcanic vents and pearl shells from the sea.

Though their lives were simple, they possessed a unique wisdom in harmonizing with nature.

Nether Soul sat beneath an ancient tree in the village, listening to a young girl—with small horns on her head and scales on her cheeks—telling the tale of the Sea God’s marriage.

Her tone was vivid, and as her arms gestured, it felt as though one could see palaces emerging within the deep sea.

At that moment, Nether Soul sensed something and subtly shifted his gaze toward the outskirts of the village.

There stood a young man in a light cyan Daoist robe, wearing a jade crown, quietly outside the fence.

His aura was clear and restrained, faintly merging with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

That was the distinct bearing of an orthodox Qi Refining cultivator.

“Early Foundation Establishment?!” Nether Soul’s mind trembled.

For a full ten years, traversing thousands of islands, he had found no trace of the immortal path.

Yet now, at the edge of the most remote island far from the mainland, he encountered one so suddenly!

What caught his attention even more was that the other party had no beast-like traits whatsoever.

His features were handsome, his temperament transcendent—standing before this crude village, he appeared entirely out of place.

The young cultivator also saw Nether Soul, a flash of surprise crossing his eyes.

He clearly had not expected to encounter a human here.

What alarmed him even more was that he could not see through the other’s cultivation at all.

After only a moment of hesitation, the young man composed himself, stepped forward calmly, and performed a Daoist salute.

“My name is Liu Qingyun. Greetings, fellow Daoist.”

“May I ask where your immortal homeland lies, and why you have come to this mortal world island under the jurisdiction of the Azure Wave Sect—Southern Sea No. 73?”

Azure Wave Sect? Southern Sea No. 73? Mortal world coordinate island?

Just a few words, yet they opened an entirely new door before Nether Soul.

His expression remained unchanged as he casually replied, “A wandering cultivator, Mo You. Passing through by chance, I found the local customs unique and thus stayed to travel.”

The moment the words “wandering cultivator” were spoken, Liu Qingyun’s gaze abruptly changed.

The previously restrained curiosity instantly turned into a somewhat condescending scrutiny.

Liu Qingyun smiled faintly. “This Southern Sea No. 73 world has long been registered under my Azure Wave Sect. For a thousand years, there has been no record of outside wandering cultivators entering by mistake.”

“You, fellow Daoist, are… quite the rare guest.”

Before his words even finished, a sudden change occurred!

Without any warning, Liu Qingyun struck.

A streak of azure sword light shot out from his sleeve, piercing straight toward Nether Soul’s forehead!

Nether Soul had indeed not expected the other to be so decisive.

He had merely declared himself a wandering cultivator, and without even probing further, the man directly attempted to kill?

In that instant, he could not be bothered to continue disguising himself.

Even with only seventy percent of the original body’s strength, the Nascent Soul realm was far beyond what a Foundation Establishment cultivator could imagine.

Nether Soul simply raised his right hand and grasped lightly in the air.

The fierce azure flying sword, as if plunging into an invisible swamp, abruptly froze three feet before him.

The sword let out a mournful cry, unable to move.

Immediately after, a vast pressure descended silently, freezing the spiritual energy around Liu Qingyun.

He stood rigid, only his pupils reflecting boundless terror.

This level of pressure… he had only once felt a trace of it from a Nascent Soul ancestor during a sect ancestral ceremony!

Even more terrifying—the other had not even truly made a move.

With just a casual thought, his mid-grade magical treasure—granted by his master and capable of injuring enemies beyond ranks—hung in the air, wailing!

“This person! Could he be… Nascent Soul?” Liu Qingyun’s mind shattered.

He had never imagined that in this so-called lower, barren mortal world, there would be a Nascent Soul monster hidden!

And he had just tried to kill him…

This was not just kicking an iron plate—it was jumping straight into a furnace!

As the pressure slightly eased, Liu Qingyun struggled to speak:

“Se-Senior, please forgive me! I was blind… I am an inner disciple of the Azure Wave Sect of the Spirit Realm. My master is an elder of punishment in the sect—please, Senior, for the sake of the Azure Wave Sect—”

Nether Soul could not be bothered to listen to his hollow threats and desperate pleading.

This kind of behavior—arrogant before and submissive after, relying on backing to kill at will—made him think the man was both brainless and foolish.

The most fundamental rule of heaven and earth might indeed be that the strong prey upon the weak.

But someone so brainless yet decisive was extremely rare.

He directly reached out and pressed his hand onto Liu Qingyun’s crown.
