...

Taixu Realm.

[In the Taixu Calendar year twelve billion, nine hundred sixty-five million, the supreme ruler of the Taixu Realm, Taixu Emperor, felt his destined time was near its end, so he ascended the ancestral vein of the Divine Mountain—Tiandu Mountain—to enter seclusion in hopes of making a breakthrough.]

[Three thousand years later, Taixu Emperor's attempt at breakthrough failed, his already limited lifeforce nearly depleted. Taixu Emperor felt neither joy nor sorrow as he calmly awaited his end.]

[His life was magnificent; beginning his conquest at the age of sixteen, he expelled the Outer Realm Demons, swept through sixteen worlds, ended the chaos, and thus inaugurated the golden age of the Taixu Realm. Under his rule, the Ten Thousand Races lived in peace, gods and people harmonized, and the Taixu Realm rose from a minor world to become a major force among the All Heavens in the Great Thousand World.]

["I am content with this life!" Taixu Emperor looked back on his life, remembering his friends who had died in battle, and decided it was now time to join them.]

[At that moment, Infinite Immortal Light descended from the sky, embodying seventy-two colors, illuminating the Great Thousand.]

[Under Taixu Emperor's puzzled gaze, the seventy-two-colored Immortal Light coalesced into a ball of light before him.]

["What is this?" Taixu Emperor reached out to touch the ball of light, and as the Immortal Light dissipated, a jade-like male infant appeared before him—it was you.]

[Feeling the Immortal Light gradually replenishing his lifeforce, Taixu Emperor was shocked and somewhat at a loss as he looked at you.]

[Eventually, he took you back to Taixu Country.]

[A childless Taixu Emperor brought back a child, to the shock of Taixu officials and the joy of Taixu citizens!]

["Our Emperor finally has a successor!" Joy filled the entire Taixu Country. Soon, news that Taixu Emperor had returned after three thousand years with a child spread throughout the Taixu worlds.]

[You became the focus of the entire Taixu Realm.]

[Some hermits, aware that the lifeforce of the nearly depleted Taixu Emperor had sprung anew, sought to find out what kind of cultivation technique he had cultivated.]

[Not long after, news spread throughout the Taixu Realm: On the brink of death, Taixu Emperor created a dual cultivation technique unprecedented in history, which rejuvenated him for another lifetime.]

[And your existence was the incontrovertible proof of this news.]

[Taixu Emperor did not come forward to clarify. Because in the last period of his seclusion, he genuinely had created an unprecedented dual cultivation technique. But after forecasting its outcomes, he felt it was unnecessary, thus he simply waited for his end.]

[Taixu Emperor saw you as his successor and meticulously tutored you.]

[From a young age, you were bright and clever, kind-hearted, and much beloved by the people of Taixu.]

[At the age of one, Taixu Emperor discovered your talent for Artifact Refining because you created a cloud that could fly. Overjoyed, Taixu Emperor rode the cloud you refined out of Taixu Country.]

[Upon his return, Taixu Emperor curiously asked you why the cloud turned from white to gold after he left, and in a short time was sparkling brightly.]

[You replied that the cloud possessed a mystical effect; gold represents a Pure Yang Body, and for a single old man, the bright golden light could blind others.]

[Taixu Emperor's face darkened. He praised you discreetly, then turned around and gave the cloud to the Taixu National Master.]

[Once the Taixu National Master sat upon the cloud, it turned black. When Taixu Emperor came again with the National Master to inquire, you replied: Black represents cunning, and for a cunning old man, the black cloud would even throw lightning bolts.]

[As those words fell, the Taixu National Master was struck by lightning, leaving him burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. Yet, he didn't blame you and even praised you with a beaming smile.]

[That day, Taixu Emperor and the Taixu National Master arranged a battle at Tiandu Mountain.]

[That night, lamely, the Taixu National Master knocked on your door, and after having him sign many unfair treaties, your testing clouds began mass production and were put into use.]

[Thus, you earned praise from many powerful beings, and your test clouds were sold at exorbitant prices.]

[At the age of one, you were already overwhelmed by a life of heavy prosperity.]

[At the age of two, you proposed to live a hermit life in the mountains. Taixu Emperor fully respected your wishes, sent you to Tiandu Mountain, and constructed Yuxu Palace there for you.]

[On Tiandu Mountain, you found a squirrel that was on the verge of starvation.]

[With two pine cones the size of fists and two fists the size of pine cones, you successfully acquired a pet.]

[Taixu Emperor, realizing the squirrel had an extraordinary background, was concerned for your safety and decided to test it. Hence, while you were asleep, Taixu Emperor quietly ascended to Tiandu Mountain.]

[That night, Taixu Emperor battled the squirrel for three hundred rounds and managed to take away its only two pine cones.]

[This year, as you cultivated quietly on Tiandu Mountain, the whole Taixu Country lost some of its merriment—the Taixu National Master misses you dearly.]

[At the age of three, amidst the eagerly awaiting citizens of Taixu, you returned to the long-separated Taixu Country.]

[To celebrate your return, the Taixu National Master took you to the residence of the Hehuan Valley in the Ling Divine Realm within Taixu Country—the Hehuan Thirteenth Floor.

You received the adoration of all the Qian Dao cultivators, Kun Dao cultivators, and Qiankun Inverted cultivators of Hehuan Valley.]

[You achieved the feat—browse through the Hehuan Thirteenth Floor at the age of three.]

[Overnight, your fame spread across thirty-six Great Thousand Worlds, far surpassing the Taixu Emperor!]

[Upon hearing the news, the Taixu Emperor wasn't angered but heaped high praise on you, and even met with the Taixu National Master on Tiandu Mountain.]

[The next day, you heard that the Taixu National Master had fallen ill and could not get up, refusing your visit. He lay in bed for an entire year.]

[A year without seeing the National Master, you missed him dearly.]

…

[This record ends here]

"Has the National Master not recovered from his illness yet?"

In the Taixu Inner Court, the young Xuanqing held a squirrel and found the Taixu Emperor.

"It's Ah Xuan!"

The Taixu Emperor gazed affectionately at Xuanqing and casually snatched the pine cone from the squirrel's grasp.

The squirrel's eyes widened, completely baffled.

Squeak squeak!!

Ignoring the squirrel's protests, the Taixu Emperor peeled the pine cones one by one and fed them to little Xuanqing.

Little Xuanqing didn't refuse and happily accepted the Taixu Emperor's feeding.

The Taixu Emperor said with earnest heartiness, "The National Master followed me in battle across lands in the past, and now his old wounds have flared up, needing a long period of rest. You'll have to wait some more time if you want to see him."

"Okay then."

The National Master had made little Xuanqing's name known across thirty-six vast worlds, and Xuanqing couldn't forget about him.

"How about I refine an Elixir for the National Master?"

Little Xuanqing looked up at the Taixu Emperor with an innocent and naive smile, "If he takes my Elixir, the National Master will surely get better!"

"Ah Xuan knows how to do Alchemy?" The Taixu Emperor asked with a chuckling smile, having become accustomed to the various wonders of Xuanqing.

"Mhm!"

Little Xuanqing nodded his head, his voice tender but filled with absolute confidence.

"The Elixir I refine is just as reliable as the Artifacts I refine!"

Alchemy on par with Artifact Refining?

"Well then, Ah Xuan, what ingredients do you need? I'll get them all for you!"

The smile on the Taixu Emperor's face grew even wider at the thought that this Elixir was for the National Master.

Seven days later.

The "recuperating" National Master received a gift from little Xuanqing.

"Solid Foundation and Nourishing Yuan Pill?"

After taking the Elixir, the National Master did indeed recover, rising directly from his sickbed where he had been bedridden.

"I feel so invigorated!"

The National Master flew out of his residence, overjoyed.

"Hey? Wait a minute!"

As he flew, the National Master suddenly turned back.

He looked at his bed, where a body lay peacefully.

"Isn't that me?"

The National Master suddenly realized he was in his Primordial Spirit state!

He tried to return to his body.

But found he couldn't go back!

The Solid Foundation and Nourishing Yuan Pill had made his physical body as strong as an impregnable fortress and had directly cultivated his Primordial Spirit to the point of materialization.

Now his Primordial Spirit couldn't even return!
