Shen Ping said casually, “We’ll talk about it in the future. I’m only concerned about the present.”

Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing frowned. He did not expect Shen Ping to be so stubborn. However, he had already achieved his goal for today. As long as Ling Zhen did not disturb the situation, the Daoist Reduction would continue. At most, he would keep the Changling Sect.

“Senior Xue Jing, I’m still very interested in the grotto heaven. I wonder if I can stay in the grotto-heaven of Tianshan for a few days.”

The Chaos Hole Great Dao was to condense the embryonic form of a small world. The more realistic it was, the stronger its power would be. Therefore, if he could comprehend the operation of the Grotto-Heaven, it would be extremely helpful in comprehending the Chaos Hole Great Dao in the future.

“Of course. My Tianshan welcomes Earth Immortal Ling Zhen at any time.” He handed Shen Ping a token. “With this token, you can enter the grotto-heaven when you activate the power of the Dao Bone nomological laws in the range of Tianshan.”

“Thank you.”

After Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing left, the Heavenly Immortals of Emei, Kunlun, and other grotto-heavens arrived one after another. What they said was basically the same. On the other hand, the Heavenly Immortal of Emei pushed the cause of the problem in the world to Tianshan and Kunlun. She said that they had malicious intentions and wanted to absorb the power of the world to improve their grotto-heavens.

However, after knowing that Shen Ping was unwilling to ask about reducing the number of Daoists, the Heavenly Immortal of Emei advised earnestly, “Earth Immortal Ling Zhen, you are powerful. If you don’t stop it now, you will definitely be bullied by Tianshan and Kunlun in the future.”

Shen Ping said indifferently, “I know what I’m doing.”

The Heavenly Immortal of Emei immediately became cold. “We have different paths, so we can’t work together.” After saying that, she left.

Half a year later, Shen Ping came to the mountain range where Tianshan was located, took out the token and felt a pulling force. He did not resist and was immediately brought to the grotto-heaven of Tianshan.

He had just entered the Grotto-Heaven when an abundant and rich vitality rushed towards him. This vitality was nearly a hundred times richer than the purple qi that rose from the east every day outside. If he cultivated here, his cultivation speed would be more than a hundred times faster. Even a Daoist with ordinary Dao bones could become a Perfected Person.

Apart from that, he also sensed a type of restriction, as if it was the suppression of natural laws. Even his true spirit found it difficult to display it, and it was similar to some of the natural laws in the Blessed Land.

“So this the grotto-heaven, huh?”

Shen Ping now knew why the Dao sects of the famous mountains and rivers in the world would continue for a long time, and that every thousand years, a Perfected Lord would be born. Furthermore, there was an endless supply of Earth Immortals. As long as the grotto-heaven existed, it was very easy for a Perfected Lord to break through to the Earth Immortal realm.

It s an honor for Earth Immortal Ling Zhen to come to our grotto-heaven!” Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing smiled and welcomed him. Shen Ping cupped his hands. “Come, let’s talk in my Dao Hall.”

Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing immediately called the Daoists in the grotto­heaven to prepare the beautiful immortal fruits.

When he arrived at the Dao Hall, Shen Ping carefully sensed the difference between a grotto-heaven and a blessed land. Although his true spirit was restricted by the rules, he could still sense different vitality in this grotto­heaven. This surprised him. It had to be known that Daoists who could possess multiple Dao bones were not geniuses at all. Such talent was very difficult to cultivate. Not to mention cultivating to the Heavenly Immortal realm, even to the Perfected Person realm was very difficult. This was because it required too many resources. No Dao sect was willing to nurture them.

Moreover, he did not sense any other Great Dao of Life from Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing.

While they were drinking, he asked the question he was curious about. Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing laughed. In fact, every Earth Immortal would have such curiosity when they entered the grotto-heaven. He drank his wine unhurriedly and said, “Earth Immortal Ling Zhen, you should know that you can condense any item in the blessed land, right?”

Shen Ping nodded. “That’s right. The vitality consumed by the blessed land is very little, but there are limits. Some rare items are difficult to condense.”

Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing flipped her palm and quickly condensed the Blood Taisui. “In the grotto-heaven, you can condense all items. But items like Blood Taisui only have the form. If you really want the Blood Taisui to have medicinal effects, you have to consume the power of the grotto-heaven.

“The power of a grotto-heaven is the power of a world. This is what every Heavenly Immortal absorbs from the world when they transform their blessed land into a grotto-heaven. It contains all the nomological laws. This is a gift from the world. When you break through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, you will know.

“After the grotto-heaven was formed, it would continuously absorb the power of the world every year. The stronger one was, the higher the efficiency of absorbing it. However, it was very difficult to continue transforming the grotto-heaven. It has been 50,000 years since I broke through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, but I’m still at the early-stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm.”

Shen Ping came to a realization. So it was given by the world. No wonder there were so many nomological vitalities. “In that case, breaking through from an Earth Immortal to a Heavenly Immortal is not just simply comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth?”

Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing laughed, “Of course not. Comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is only one of the conditions. If you want to break through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, you have to transform your blessed land. There are no shortcuts to the transformation of a blessed land, unfortunately. You can only accumulate it step by step. During this period, you have to use the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth you have comprehended to cleanse yourself. Back then, I spent more than 8,000 years trying to break through. This is with the help of my senior from Tianshan. Otherwise, it would have taken longer.

“Most Earth Immortals die before they can undergo metamorphosis.” Speaking of this, he looked at Shen Ping meaningfully and said, “Even if you want to absorb the blessed lands of other Earth Immortals to improve, you can’t. Blessed lands are different from grotto-heavens. The type of Dao bone you have determines the type of vitality in the blessed land. If you rashly absorb other blessed lands, it will only cause your blessed land to collapse.”

Shen Ping knew that Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing had guessed the reason for his rapid improvement, but he did not care.

“Of course, if your comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth is not slow, the transformation of the blessed land will also speed up.”

Shen Ping humbly asked, “I wonder what else is needed during the transformation of the blessed land other than the cleansing of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth?”

Treasures of heaven and earth. Your Dao bone that created the blessed land sets the type of treasures you have to search for. Apart from this, if you have the power of a grotto-heaven, then it is better than any heavenly treasure. Earth Immortal Ling Zhen, the conditions of my Tianshan remain unchanged. As long as you join, the power of the grotto-heaven will still be given to you.” Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing said.

It had to be said that Tianshan was indeed very sincere, but Shen Ping had his own considerations. Moreover, there was no free lunch in the world. He did not want to be restrained.

He spent half a month in Tianshan’s Grotto-Heaven. He appreciated the scenery of the grotto-heaven before leaving and heading straight for Kunlun’s grotto-heaven. It was similar to Tianshan’s grotto-heaven, but the range of Kunlun’s grotto-heaven was relatively small. Clearly, the strength of Kunlun’s Heavenly Immortal was inferior to Tianshan’s Heavenly Immortal Xue Jing. The grotto-heavens of the other dao sects varied in size. However, the basic laws of operation were the same.

“What are the rules of the grotto-heaven? Where are the nodes where all kinds of vitality fuse? How should I balance them?”

These were the problems that arose in Shen Ping’s heart when he visited the many grotto-heavens. He knew that if he could figure these out, it would be easier to condense the embryonic form of the small world in the future.

But it takes more than a day to figure it out.

It seems that if I want to break through to the Heavenly Immortal Realm, I have to slowly immerse myself in this world.”

After understanding this, Shen Ping ignored the outside world and started cultivating. He did not care about the decrease in the number of Daoists outside at all. Only in the surrounding areas of the Jian Province would he ask about it.

In the blink of an eye, 50 years passed.

After experiencing sex every day, Yin Shu broke through to the Perfected Lord realm. This made the entire Ling Yin Temple, who was in a precarious state, overjoyed. They immediately passed the position of the Abbey Dean to Yin Shu. Unfortunately, after knowing that cultivation was everything, Yin Shu focused on sex and cultivation like Shen Ping.

Just like that, another hundred years passed.

The Eldest Senior Sister had finally broken through to the Perfected Lord. She had the Reincarnation Dao Bone, so after breaking through to Perfected Lord, her cultivation was extremely strong. Perfected Lords of the same level were not her match at all. Only Perfected Lords with two to three thousand years of cultivation could suppress her.

With the birth of two Perfected Lords in a row, Ling Yin Temple returned to its former peak. Even the Imperial Court did not dare to casually attack them.
