Majestic and resplendent silver light streaked across the starry sky.

The grey squirrel split into five, which then multiplied into countless duplicates, and directly entered the "World of the Five Elements."

Viewed from above the Space-Time River, one could see the endless expanse of time and all heavens, each timeline teeming with innumerable instances of its activity, only for countless others to vanish in the next moment.

To step out of the Three Realms and not be within the Five Elements is often used to describe those who have achieved Great Transcendence.

Yet, as the master of the Five Elements Great Dao, to transform into the Five Elements, spirit returning to the Dao, and vanishing into the endless world of the Great Dao, with both past and future existing and yet not existing—how is this not the method of Great Transcendence!

"Hey, old Daoist, you've really pushed it into a corner now!"

Two Da Luo stood above the Space-Time River, witnessing the entire escape of the Five Elements Demon Gods.

Yang Mei, following Hong Jun all along, had basically confirmed that this was the Five Elements Demon God.

"Alright, send a reply to Daoist from Fengdu." Hong Jun withdrew his gaze.

"Aren't you going to chase him?"

While responding to Xuanqing, Yang Mei asked: "Why not recruit him? That doesn't seem like you at all."

Hong Jun strolled leisurely ahead, not looking back as he said, "Those with destiny shall fall into my trap!"

"Those without it cannot be compelled."

"You, old Daoist, always speaking so mysteriously. Can't you just say it's hard to catch and be done with it?"

Yang Mei shook his head; he didn't believe Hong Jun would simply let a Chaos Demon God wander about.

Perhaps one day upon returning to White Jade City, he would meet a new Five Elements Immortal.

~~~

"Squeak!"

When the overwhelming power of the Da Luo, spreading across infinite time and space, disappeared, a tiny sapling poked its head timidly out from the Space-Time River!

"I was almost caught!"

"Good thing I tricked Them; otherwise, I would have definitely been captured!"

The sapling wobbled a bit, then transformed back into a grey squirrel.

The squirrel collapsed exhaustedly into the silvery cosmic light.

On the surface, it used the power of the Dao Fruit of the Five Elements Demon God to transform into Dao and escaped into the endless time and space.

In reality, its true body—the Five-needle Pine—hid through Water Escape, directly submerged within the Space-Time River.

"Even the waters of time are still water; how clever I am."

The grey squirrel was self-congratulatory about its cunning.

"First, I'll hide out in the Space-Time River, then find the right opportunity, seek a correct node, and slip into the Primordial!"

"Hmph, you local yokels from the Primordial won't stop me!"

"All the pine cones in Primordial are mine!"

Internally cursing the petty natives of the Primordial once more, the grey squirrel continued to drift along the river.

"In the future, when I become Da Luo, I'll just stick in the Primordial and not leave, hoarding all the pine cones in the Primordial."

"Then, I'll eat Pangu's, drink Pangu's, sleep in Pangu's! It's His fault for cutting me down in the first place!"

"I'll settle all the karmic debts from the Heaven Creation."

"Hmph, Pangu, are you scared? You owe me all this."

The grey squirrel floated along, luxuriating in its delightful future.

Then, as it drifted, it suddenly collided with something very solid.

"Huh?"

The grey squirrel stumbled, opened its eyes in confusion, and felt around.

"There are boats in the Space-Time River?" The grey squirrel was even more baffled.

"Eh? There are rats in the Space-Time River?"

At this moment, a light exclamation was heard.

Before the grey squirrel could react, an oar descended from the heavens with a fierce whack.

"Squeak!!!"

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Three successive strokes hit the grey squirrel's head, stirring countless ripples in the Space-Time River.

After a moment,

The Ferryman, chuckling, fished out the unconscious grey squirrel.

"A smuggler? Apprehended!"

It seemed the Ten-fully Fortifying Soup would come in handy again!

Who was the last one to enjoy this treatment?

~~~~~

Xuanqing was still casually chatting with "Uncle Willow" Yang Mei.

Over at Nuwa's side, she had already made contact with many Innate Spirit Roots.

With her genuine sincerity, she touched the hearts of the lovely little ones.

They took the initiative to arrange a meeting with Nuwa.

"I'm done for, they're all so cute, I can't bear to deceive them!" Nuwa suddenly realized that most Innate Spirit Roots were genuinely innocent and pure, and duping them filled one with guilt.

Ding!

"The Three Blossoms Lady" sent a message.

"Meow~~, Daoist Feng, are you there?"

"I am."

"I heard you're organizing an offline gathering with everyone? Is that true? Meow~~"

Nuwa stared at the message for a good while.

Gradually, the corners of her mouth lifted.

A smile as radiant as the dawn breaking through the mist blossomed on her stunning face; it was so beautiful, so bright.

"Yes, I am indeed planning an offline gathering!" Nuwa replied promptly.

"The Three Blossoms Lady": "That's wonderful, don't leave me out, meow~~"

"Don't worry, I'm a good Spirit Root, the most sincere! How could I forget about a Daoist friend like you?" Nuwa's eyes twinkled like stars, her mood joyful.

"The Three Blossoms Lady": "Mmm, we believe you! Meow~~"

Then, "The Three Blossoms Lady" on behalf of all the Spirit Roots agreed on a new time and place then with Nuwa.

Both parties chatted happily.

"Feng Lixi": "Then, let's meet at the event, my cuties!"

"The Three Blossoms Lady": "Yes, yes! See you then, meow~~"

In the fields of Su Guang, Taixu Cave Heaven.

Nuwa leaned on the handrail of the Observatory Platform, a breeze wafted by, gently buoying her hair, as she cast her gaze towards the boundless landscape, as if appreciating the scenery's beauty for the first time.

Before long, a melodious tune flowed from the Observatory Platform, joyful and relaxed, gradually becoming more haunting with the breeze.

Nuwa had already changed her mind, planning to be a good Spirit Root, not to seize those cute little things.

"Seizing them is no fun, if I'm going to seize something, it should be something that gives a sense of achievement!"

~~~

"She's not that smart, meow~~"

[Three Flowers]got in touch with Xuanqing.

"Chairman, I've told her everything you taught me, and now she has changed her mind, meow~~"

Xuanqing read this message, a smile showing on his face.

What little cuties in this world.

It was just that Xuanqing saw Nuwa eyeing too many Innate Spirit Roots, so he decided to rescue everyone on the spot.

After all, even if the top ten Innate Spirit Roots were seized, they could still get away and experiencing the dangers of the Primordial era wasn't a total no-no.

But it was not necessarily the same for other Innate Spirit Roots.

This wave of danger, once it came crashing down, meant a lifetime of sorrow.

Therefore, there were scenes of innocent cuties meeting their understanding big sister.

Finally, Xuanqing sent out the top assist [Three Flowers] into the fray.

That's what sparked the meager conscience left in a certain deity, remarkably bringing it back from the dead.

"Since ancient times, true feelings could not be kept, only strategies win hearts."

To defeat a strategy, you need another strategy.

[Other Shore Great Power]: "Thank you Three Flowers, rewarding you with a bag of dried fish!"

Ding!

Other Shore Great Power sent a Treasure Bag.

"Three Flowers is not a cat, she's an Innate Spirit Root, doesn't eat dried fish, meow~~"

Ding!

Three Flowers accepted the Treasure Bag.

[Three Flowers]: "But Three Flowers has cats at home, can feed them, meow~~"

A smile emerged on Xuanqing's face.

This Innate Peach Tree is really interesting.

[Other Shore Great Power]: "Be a little careful when you go to the meeting."

[Three Flowers]: "Don't worry, I will teach everyone to call back Feng Daoist's conscience with sincerity, meow~~"

[Other Shore Great Power]: "I'm not talking about Feng Daoist."

[Three Flowers]: "Is there another accident? Meow~~"

[Other Shore Great Power]: "There is a little, but it's not a big problem."

[Three Flowers]: "That's good… oh no, I'm about to be discovered! Chairman, let's talk another time, thank you for the dried fish, meow~~"

There seemed to be some emergency on Three Flowers' side, as she quickly logged off after saying her piece.

"She wouldn't have been caught by The Queen Mother of the West, would she?"

Thinking of the image of the Innate Peach Tree being caught, Xuanqing felt it might be quite amusing.

Next, Xuanqing continued to lurk in the chat group for a while, watching everyone's movements.

Besides a few old friends who livened up the atmosphere, most in the group were newbies.

The new[Red Fruit]Vermilion Bird was guided by the Innate Parasol Tree and didn't have any major issues.

[Clear Water]Daoist Lord Yu Chen happily chatted with [Green Lotus];

[Pure Sea Grass]Ancestor Dragon bragged, earning applause from many Spirit Roots;

The Star Tree[Chen An]was a bit socially anxious, [Putao Ancestor]Zhun Ti was consoling him;

The North Sea Xuan Turtle[Daimao Flower]was arguing with someone, his nemesis being Pan King[Ancient Tree];

...

"What a vigorous vitality, such a flourishing scene indeed!"

Xuanqing sighed with emotion.

"What's a pity is that Fu Xi's Tongtian Jianmu does not have spiritual intelligence, so it can't be contacted."

He also had plans to entrap Fu Xi using Fu Xi's tree.

"Never mind, I should first refine my Three-Life Stone properly."

Xuanqing had caught a Time Demon God's rib and naturally planned to make good use of it.

Materials related to time were perfect for crafting into an important Spiritual Treasure for the future Netherworld.

"The Wind and Fire Banana Leaf Fan is also almost refined, I'll send it to Taishang later."

"These two Chaos Demon God's eyeballs..."

Xuanqing hadn't yet figured out what to do with them, so for now, he had to store them in Taisha Heavenly Palace.

A Prison, a new universe was added.

This caused many incarcerated beings to lament: "It hasn't been long, and a new inmate has arrived?"

Even the Dark Demon God sighed to the heavens: "Are we Three Thousand Demigods going to gather here?"

He didn't know that the Time Demon God's rib was also in Xuanqing's hands; otherwise, the remnant will of the Demon God would have been worn away by the Space-Time River and also imprisoned.

"There's also the Five Elements Demon Gods!" Xuanqing felt his luck had been too good lately.

One after another, items related to the Demon Gods came to him.

News from the Ferryman arrived; the Grey Squirrel was caught and was currently savoring a fortified soup.

Soon it would have a change of heart and start anew as a squirrel.

"The Lord, don't you think this Five-needle Pine is a bit weird? How did it transform into a Grey Squirrel when it took form?"

"Actually, I think it's not weird, who said Five-needle Pine has to be a pine tree, can't it be a Grey Squirrel?"

Xuanqing approved of the Five Elements Demon Gods' unconventional behavior: "Anyway, it's all the Five Elements Great Dao, anything goes."

The Ferryman could not respond.

"What if I redefine it, should I make it into a Qilin?"

"The Five Elements Great Dao is quite good, given you a Demon God as your mount, that would be stylish."
