Demon Ancestor Luo Hou had never received such a warm welcome from those of the Immortal Dao.

"I am the Demon Ancestor; you are the Immortals. Isn't it inappropriate for you to be so passionate towards me?" Luo Hou was somewhat surprised.

"How is it inappropriate?"

The Immortals laughed: "It's perfectly appropriate."

There was no helping it; the stark contrast displayed by the Demon Ancestor before and after was too great.

Fu Xi and Nuwa created Heaven, and during that Demon Tribulation which enveloped time and space, the Demon Ancestor showed a dominance that made the gods tremble in fear.

Even a passing dog would have to endure a couple of slaps.

True Dragon eggs had to be scattered about willy-nilly.

As a result, although the Heaven Creation Demon Tribulation occurred only once, it had penetrated deeply into the hearts of gods.

Everyone subconsciously felt that the creation of Heaven must be dealt with cautiously.

Now, they found out that even the calamities of Heaven Creation could be contracted, allowing for a safe passage through them!

How could this not fill them with joy and excitement?

Even the path of demons has its merits... even elders like the Yin Yang Daoist felt that the advertisement effect of Luo Hou this time was just too good, and they were somewhat tempted.

"Daoist Luo Hou, please seriously consider our orders." The Immortals were earnest in their approach.

Luo Hou went out for a stroll, not only earned merit but also received a batch of big orders, directly fulfilling all of the Demon Realm's business targets.

The Divine Beings of Primordial were always like this; the head of the organization was often the most career-focused, the most capable, and the most diligent.

They could not only run their own businesses well but could also lead their teams to take off.

After this round of publicity, the Demon Path directly carved out a new blue ocean for themselves.

In the future, Great Demons and Demon Kings from the Demon Path could go out and accept orders themselves.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

While the Immortals were interacting with the Demon Ancestor, Hong Jun and Yang Mei were not idle.

They were still engaging in Heaven Creation.

Central Jun Tian was just one of them.

They planned to take advantage of the opportunity "gifted" by Luo Hou to make a big move!

"Open!"

Hong Jun, holding the Pangu Banner, continued to create Heaven and Earth.

Yang Mei used the Taiji Diagram to stabilize the World Law.

The world was established, Yin and Yang differentiated, and the Chaos Qi was refined into the cyan-colored Immortal Qi.

This is the Eastern Cangtian.

Following that, the two Da Luo Supremes consecutively created seven Heavenly Realms.

Northeast is named the Changing Heaven, the North is named Xuan Heaven, the Northwest is named You Heaven, the West is named Hao Heaven, the Southwest is named Zhu Heaven, the South is named Flame Heaven, and the Southeast is named Yangtian.

A total of nine worlds composed a vast Immortal Realm.

Each world possessed different Immortal Qi, symbolizing the nine paths of Immortal Dao for cultivation.

From now on, the Immortal Emperor will preside over Jun Tian and command all directions.

Boom! Boom! Boom~~

As the Immortal Realm was opened, boundless merit converged, shaking the endless time and space.

In the Primordial World, there was initially no physical object like "merit," let alone the merit derived from Heaven Creation.

The earliest merits all came from Xuanqing's crafty establishment of the Xuan Huang Heaven Dao and various Heaven Dao of the Taixu Gods.

However, as the Taixu Gods subtly and continuously promoted merit, the concept of "merit" and its associated logic gradually became a rule, imprinted in the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, accepted by both the gods and all sentient beings.

The official appearance of Heaven Creation Merit, however, was attributed to the Heaven Creation by Fu Xi and Nuwa.

At that time, after creating Heaven, Nuwa, as the creator, to thank Xuanqing and others, as well as the Qilin race, specifically crafted the Mountain Sea Heaven Dao to distribute merit.

"""

The reason there is Heaven Creation Merit this time is also because Hong Jun responded to Luo Hou's request and directly fashioned the Heaven Creation Merit of the Immortal Dao by imitating the Sacred Virtue of the Demon Path.

This not only facilitates settlement but also further deepens the imprint of "Heaven Creation Merit" in the hearts of beings in the Primordial True Realm.

By ingraining Heaven Creation Merit into the hearts of all beings and rooting it in the endless temporal realm, underpinning the fundamental logic of operation in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds as an inevitable rule, then they, the pioneers of the Heavenly Dao Merit, could maximize their benefits.

And isn't the Way of Merit itself another Dao?

In time, as Merit blends into the fabric of various worlds, Heaven Creation will inevitably bring Merit, and Their Dao will thus be established.

At that time, not only could the Taixu Gods concentrate various Merit Dao Fruits.

They could also plan ahead to safeguard their potential return, even if one day they end up overturned.

Hong Jun, however, did not anticipate Luo Hou and the deeper schemes of the Taixu Gods, or rather, he did not take the initiative to delve into this matter.

The fact that the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou agreed to be the "contractor" to take on the contract for Heaven Creation calamities had already met Hong Jun's expectations.

Beyond expectations, He saw no need to minutely examine things that didn't harm the interests of the Immortal Dao.

Therefore, when Luo Hou proposed this request, He agreed without hesitation.

Mainly because this Merit was indeed very handy.

The stir in Chaos alarmed the Innate Divine Beings of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, who cast their gazes over.

They saw the Heaven Creation Merit of the Demon Ancestor descend to the world and also witnessed the transcendence of the Immortal Realm beyond time and space.

With a quick calculation, they simply learned the general course of events.

"Pangu's axe! The Demon Ancestor's gift is way too generous, isn't it?"

"This is a good thing, after all. It means that our Heaven Creation and earth shaping won't be so troublesome in the future."

"Right, if the Demon Ancestor can contract Heaven Creation, Demon Kings and Great Demons should be able to do the same, right?"

"Eh? True! Now that you mention it, those fearsome examiners suddenly seem quite refined and elegant."

"Just ask during the Demon Exam and you'll find out."

The divine beings of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds actively discussed the event of Immortal Dao's Heaven Creation.

This was an unprecedented scenario, so fresh and unseen before.

"Never thought that exploiting loopholes could work with Heaven Creation calamities."

"What do you mean 'exploiting loopholes'? This is about forging new tracks, exploring untapped markets, and then connecting... Oops, I forgot the new term I learned the other time in Supreme Eternal Melt Heaven. They actually have an Underworld there, and the controller is called something like the Metropolitan King."

"Underworld, Metropolitan King? What are these?"

"That's a long story to tell..."

Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, leveraging the establishment of the Immortal Realm, launched the strongest advertising campaign in the whole universe.

If the folks from the Demon Realm themselves opened a world, everyone would curse them as 'actors' and maintain a skeptical attitude.

But the Immortal and Demon Paths had just exploded in a great war, bringing the conflict into the open.

Now that the Daoist Ancestor still reaches out to the Demon Ancestor to contract for Heaven Creation calamities, what does this indicate?

It indicates that the Demon Path is indeed trustworthy!

And what could be more persuasive than the acknowledgement from an old adversary?

After Hong Jun completed the creation of the Immortal Realm, He still needed to sort out the World Laws and connect the Immortal Dao Plane with the Immortal Realm.

"My fellow Daoists, thank you for your efforts."

"Daoist, there's no need for such courtesies, it is our duty!"

The masters of the major Dharma Lineages of the Immortal Dao each took charge of a Heavenly Domain and began to act.

Xuanqing stepped into the Immortal Realm and headed to Eastern Cangtian.

Red Cloud proceeded towards Southeast Yangtian, Nuwa took up the Southern Flame Heaven, the Taiyi brothers attended the Northeast Changing Sky, Ming River Wuyou entered the Northwest You Heaven…

Everyone acted in their respective roles, with beings like Xuanqing responsible for sorting out the World Laws and connecting the Immortal Dao Plane.

Meanwhile, Houtu, Zhenwu, Xi He, and others were in charge of perfecting various architectures across the major Heavens.

Qianyun Palace, Pisha Palace, Five Bright Palace... They shaped thirty-three Heavenly Palaces in a single breath; in addition, there were the Court Meeting Hall, Lingxu Palace, Treasure Light Hall, Immortal King Hall, and other seventy-two precious palaces.

Within the layers of high heaven, grand and unending Immortal Palaces and Divine Abodes were one by one brought into existence.

Lastly, following the suggestions of Daoist Lord Yu Chen, the array formations of the Immortal Realm were perfected.

In just a short moment, a complete Immortal Realm was sculpted and finished!

Gazing at the success before them, the assembly of immortals was brimming with joyous harmony.

"Thus, all preparations are ready, we only await the Ascension Ceremony three thousand years from now."

Hong Jun and Yang Mei clasped hands: "Esteemed sages, we shall meet again in three thousand years!"

The congregation of immortals all smiled and clasped hands together:

"We shall meet again in three thousand years!"

~~~~~

Immortals and gods agree to meet in three thousand years.

This span of time was neither short nor long.

Three thousand years, long enough for Xuanqing to refine and recreate his newly acquired luxurious vehicle.

Three thousand years, long enough for the trees in the Five Towns Temple to blossom once again.

Zhen Yuanzi usually takes the guise of various plants.

He can now perfectly impersonate a Ginsengfruit Tree, even achieving blooms every three thousand years, bearing fruit every three thousand years, and maturing every three thousand years.

And he manages a higher yield than the real Ginsengfruit Trees.

It's just that the effect of the fruits is greatly diminished.

"But the taste is pretty similar though!"

Shen Tu took a bite of the fruit, juice splattered everywhere, exuding a refreshing fragrance.

"It can still be improved," Zhen Yuanzi said, "A fruit that matures every ten thousand years and grants immortality upon consumption, that would be a true Innate Spirit Root."

"We Innate Spirit Roots should also have the initiative to cultivate ourselves, so that we can keep up with the times. Even when the Age of Dharma Decline arrives, we can still survive."

"Daoist, you truly are a model among Innate Spirit Roots!" Reincarnation Purple Lotus exclaimed.

Now, why did Shen Tu, Yu Lei, and Reincarnation Purple Lotus meet Zhen Yuanzi?

Answer: Zhen Yuanzi has been impersonating a Ginsengfruit Tree.

The "Ginsengfruit Tree" that the Divine Peach Tree and Reincarnation Purple Lotus went looking for in the Five Towns Temple was always impersonated by Zhen Yuanzi.

Pretending to be a tour guide among immortals for a great traveller is just too easy.

They are now on a journey.

Accompanying them is a sunny and bright young man—Fusang Tree.

He's also a naïve Spirit Root, very easy to deceive.

Fortunately, Zhen Yuanzi doesn't have any malicious intentions.

He is just cultivating his own Great Dao.

His practice of transforming into various plants is his way of cultivation.

Netherworld.

After his return, Xuanqing stayed at Zhou Jue Heavenly Palace.

He is currently re-crafting the Nine Dragon Incense Chariot.

Originally, he also wanted to help Jing Yao and Yu Chen refine the Flame Light Flag and Purple Lightning Hammer once more.

Unfortunately, they both refused no matter what.

In the end, Xuanqing could only study the two Spiritual Treasures, replicate the embedded Great Dao Laws, and include them in the "Jade Void Refining Device Complete Solution."

"Eh? Zhen Yuanzi uploaded some good stuff in the Heavenly Market." Xuanqing noticed some new Spirit Plants in the Heavenly Market.

[Red Wood Fruit]With red stems and leaves, and yellow flowers but red fruit, its taste is as sweet as syrup, and one would not feel hungry after eating it.

[Sand Pear Fruit]It looks like a pear, with yellow flowers and red fruit, tasting like a peach but coreless, and it can be used for Water Control.

[Prosperous Grass]...Consuming it eliminates the fear of thunder.

At a glance, Xuanqing saw that Zhen Yuanzi updated dozens of Spirit Plants in the Heavenly Market, all edible, and the effects were not bad either.

For instance, the Red Wood Fruit, which makes one not feel hungry after eating, seemed useless for divine beings.

But this thing involves the level of the Laws of the Great Dao. Considering hunger is one of the Three Thousand Great Dao, this kind of fruit can be immune to hunger, naturally countering those who cultivate this path among divine beings.

"However, if I analyze it in reverse, I can develop a Divine Skill that forces hunger upon someone, and I would become the god controlling hunger."

Xuanqing found this idea interesting, so he exchanged for it and immediately analyzed it, developing a new Divine Skill.

He tried it out on himself.

Xuanqing's face turned instantly pale, his figure swiftly shrinking as if his flesh had melted away, presenting a state of desiccation.

And more crucially, he felt a strong hunger, an unprecedented weakness spreading throughout his body, his eyes even turning green.

"Hungry~~"

Boom!!!

The Netherworld violently shook, and the Blood Moon in the sky also changed, turning green as if reflecting Xuanqing's eyes.

The feeling of hunger from Xuanqing, the World Master, affected the very essence of the land.

"What's happening this time?"

The newly moved Wuyou came out from Luofu Mountain and glanced at the sky, locking eyes with the Blood Moon.

"Don't look!" Xuanqing quickly recovered himself, waved his sleeve to cover up the Blood Moon, and then casually handed a Red Wood Fruit to Wuyou.

"Hmm~~" Meng Wuyou gobbled up the fruit whole.

"I overexerted whilst refining a Divine Skill, don't mind it." Xuanqing offered a brief explanation.

Meng Wuyou blinked her eyes: "The fruit's tasty, give me a few more."

"Okay."

Xuanqing exchanged for many more Spirit Fruits for her.

He also got some for Wangchuan.

While munching on the fruits, Meng Wuyou began to move houses.

She moved back to the Dream World.

Meng Wuyou had almost forgotten that it was common for Xuanqing to have accidents during experiments.

Strange occurrences at home were not a one-time thing either.

"Eh? A fruit for Water Control, not bad." Wangchuan who had just popped his head out also returned to cultivate.

He sealed the Naihe Realm to avoid any disturbances.

"This Divine Skill is a bit too strong." Xuanqing didn't try the skill on himself again.

He looked at the Sand Pear Fruit, Water Control; this could potentially play with the concept, and Ancestor Dragon would certainly like it.

Indeed, next to Xuanqing, Ancestor Dragon exchanged for the most.

"If I reverse-engineer this, can I achieve 'Loss of Water' or perhaps 'Deprivation of the Ability to Control Water'?" Xuanqing continued his attempt.

This time, instead of creating a new Divine Skill directly, he planned to refine a Spiritual Treasure.

He cultivated a field of spirit plants using the seeds of the Sand Pear Fruit, then tampered with time to make the plants mature.

"I can refine a Water Dividing Sword!"
