Once every 1,300 years, an Earth Immortal faces a great heavenly tribulation. This time, due to the shift of the Earth's axis and the change of the Ziwei Star's owner, all immortals on earth have to face this calamity.

Ordinary mortals also have to endure this tribulation. Although they don't feel the spiritual energy disappearing, there will be a grand war from south to north and east to west, causing numerous deaths. Countless dead, bones piled high like mountains, forgotten names under the Green Maple Forest, millions, tens of millions of the deceased!

Under Shi Feiyang's leadership, they worked together to dispel the Earth Tribulation caused by the eruption of the supervolcano under Tongye Island and the Human Tribulation initiated by Chi You and his Zhu Rong. Not only did the Sword Immortals who had helped before come again, but those who trembled in their caves at Chi You's arrival also came to the Yuan Yang Palace, like pilgrims.

Shi Feiyang did not regard them with newfound admiration. In fact, these lesser independent immortals were not qualified to discuss how to cross the tribulation; they simply came here to listen.

To discuss tribulation matters with Shi Feiyang, one had to at least be an Earth Immortal at the Heavenly Immortal level.

"Before the arrival of magic, there will be a Great Demon Tribulation, connecting with the Demon Tribulation within the heavenly tribulation. Most of you here, no, most Sword Immortals in the world, will not live to see the Dharma Decline Era," Shi Feiyang shared his calculations with everyone.

The group of immortals exchanged looks. Among them were those who had figured this out, but only obtained vague omens. Hearing Shi Feiyang say it plainly provided them with a definite answer.

Some who had already cultivated the Yang God secretly decided: It's time to go.

But before leaving, there were matters to settle, like Mr. Zhong from the Kunlun Sect and the Heavenly Pond Master. They could ascend, but there were still many in the Kunlun Sect who could not. They wanted to entrust them to Shi Feiyang. But at this moment, when everyone was united in preparing for the tribulation, saying they were leaving seemed disloyal.

As they struggled with this, Shi Feiyang spoke up, even calling names: "Fellow Daoist Zhong, Fellow Daoist Heavenly Pond, you should also ascend, and A Shu..."

He barely finished speaking when Jiang Shu bluntly refused, "I'm not leaving! I want to stay and survive the great tribulation with everyone before departing."

His words stalled Mr. Zhong and the others.

Shi Feiyang said, "If you don't leave now, you might not be able to leave later. Once the Dharma Decline Era arrives and spiritual energy gradually depletes, it will be difficult to ascend. When spiritual energy completely vanishes, entering the Dharma Destruction Era, at least a hundred years will pass with absolute isolation. No immortal enters the world, no demon disturbs people, beasts cannot become spirit monsters, people do not see demons, cannot become immortals, and animals cannot become spirits. Having worked hard to cultivate the Yang God, once tainted by the mortal world, you'll fall back into it. Ascension will require waiting at least a thousand years."

"I..." Jiang Shu worried and asked Shi Feiyang, "What about you? Those who can't ascend, what will you do in the future?"

The likes of the Fallen Patriarch and the Divine Monarch Zhen Yue, unable to ascend, looked at each other helplessly. The best plan they could think of was to collectively establish a Small Cave Heaven World and hide in it, surviving the hundreds of years, waiting for spiritual energy to recover. But they didn't know if it would work, as the Small Cave Heaven World might collapse along with them.

Eventually, everyone's gaze fell back on Shi Feiyang, believing he might have a solution.

Shi Feiyang fell silent for a moment, then said, "I do have an idea, but I'm not sure if it will work."

Everyone's eyes filled with eagerness, hoping he had a better plan.

"The Outer Heaven Divine Mountain!" Shi Feiyang hesitantly revealed his method. "Originally, the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain was a fallen fragment of the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm that landed in the human world. It doesn't belong here; it belongs to the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm. I want to cast magic to make the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain leave the earth and return to the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm before the Dharma Decline arrives..."

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes showed unavoidable disappointment.

This idea seemed even more unreliable than their collective effort to create a Small Cave Heaven World!

Throughout history, only tales of the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm falling things into the human world exist, never of anything from the human world returning to the Immortal Realm.

Even items brought down by many Fallen Immortals couldn't be taken back upon their return to the Immortal Realm, all left in the human world.

Consider that even upper realm divine items like the Purple Ying, the Green Rope, the Heavenly Mirror, and the Purple and Blue Duoluo Fire couldn't return to the Immortal Realm; how could a massive Outer Heaven Divine Mountain go back?

Moreover, the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain housed many beings unable to ascend and not belonging to the Immortal Realm. For Shi Feiyang to whimsically think of taking everyone along to ascend seemed insane...

If anyone else proposed this, the group of immortals would have loudly rebuked them. But since Shi Feiyang said it, though they disagreed in their hearts, none dared to openly oppose.

Shi Feiyang knew what they were thinking. He also realized this idea was too crazy, a whim of his own, and even theoretically not feasible yet.

"If we can't go to the Spiritual Space Immortal Realm, we'll go to other Heavenly Worlds. If it comes to that, we can even find a way into the Demon Realm. With our methods, we can carve out a space for ourselves."

Of course, traversing between realms is extremely difficult. Even for an individual, it's not easy to cross over. Back then, he tried many times to traverse these worlds, but mostly on Earth. Nearly all attempts involved the Primordial Spirit moving across, as taking the physical body was basically impossible...

"If it's still not possible, our last resort is to collaborate and create a small Cave Heaven World, stuff the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain inside, and peacefully cultivate for a thousand years."

That seemed feasible. The gathered immortals all agreed with this last plan, nodding in approval.

Opening a Cave Heaven isn't an easy task. Of those present, less than a handful have that level of ability, but working together, they could manage to create one.

However, when it comes to opening a Cave Heaven, some might prefer to go solo rather than collaborate. For instance, the Emei Sect can manage one on their own, as could the Kunlun Sect, provided Mr. Zhong and Heavenly Pond Master stay behind. With the means of Tianxin Five Thunder City, they could also manage one.

"In any case, we first need to modify the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain. Anyone who wants to join me in this endeavor needs to relocate their home there promptly."

The immortals all nodded, with Divine Monarch Zhenyue expressing his support first: "We shall follow Shi True Master in all matters!"

Shi Feiyang began counting on the spot, noting who wished to move to the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain.

Many immortals registered immediately, with Divine Monarch Zhenyue being the first to do so. He had previously offended Shi Feiyang, but after reconciliation, he was eager to stand by Shi Feiyang, practically rushing to show his goodwill. Shi Feiyang was naturally accommodating: "Those at the front of the list will get to choose sites first."

Hearing this, others quickly demanded to register. Even the ancestor from Wuding Island was anxious: "I need to be at the front."

Shi Feiyang laughed: "Given your location as the northern gate of the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain, you need to be last. But rest assured, I'll definitely find you a good spot."

Members of the Emei Sect, like Golden Cicada, didn't want to become dependent at the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain. This wasn't something they could decide on their own, so they proposed to leave and report back to Qi Shuming.

As they were about to leave, Shi Feiyang specifically cautioned Golden Cicada Sect Leader: "Deng Yin has been rescued by the former Red Flower Princess. They have united and are likely fully demonized. Apart from seeking vengeance on me, their greatest hatred in this world is directed at you. Be sure to clearly convey this to your father and exercise utmost caution."

Golden Cicada turned pale upon hearing about the Blood God's son, nodded repeatedly, and hastily led his fellow disciples back to Emei Mountain.

The Kunlun Sect was also facing dilemmas. Being accustomed to a carefree life, they didn't want to become dependent either. They had the capability to open a Cave Heaven, but that required Mr. Zhong and Heavenly Pond Master to stay back and not ascend. Could these two refrain from ascending to the Immortal Realm for everyone else's sake? It was indeed a challenging decision, thus requiring discussion and deliberation back home.

Jiang Shu made a direct decision: "Since my brother has a path, I won't ascend. I want to stay with my brother!"

While Shi Feiyang felt gratified, he also felt his brother was somewhat naive: "Don't you wish to meet with Tian Dou Ming River and the two ancestors?"

Thinking of his masters, Jiang Shu was indeed longing: "I can follow the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain when it ascends eventually."

Shi Feiyang laughed: "That's merely an idea, unlikely to succeed. The final outcome would probably be to create a Cave Heaven World and hide within it."

"Then we'll stay hidden inside!" Jiang Shu said. "When my two masters ascended years ago, they lamented the lack of succession for the Dao. I took it upon myself to establish the Qingcheng Sect. After years of effort, we've achieved some renown. With so many disciples under me, cultivating the Qingcheng Sect well is the greatest filial piety I can offer my masters. If I ascend, abandoning them below, then I'd be ashamed to face my masters."

Without further ado, he led his disciples away: "I'll go back to Qingcheng Mountain, take whatever can be moved, and head to the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain. You must find me a prime location for establishing a Dao site!"

Everyone actively registered, including the three sisters from Purple Cloud Palace, though they were conflicted. Purple Cloud Palace was splendid, adorned with golden courts and jade pillars, pearls threaded across curtains. They couldn't possibly bring all the pearled and gemmed drapery, yet they couldn't bear to leave them behind.

Shi Feiyang mused: "If Purple Cloud Palace remains outside, when the Dharma Decline Era approaches, without the array barrier, it will be flooded and eroded by seawater, further damaged by barnacles and fish worms, it would soon crumble into ruins, a pitiful fate indeed. I will find a way to move it entirely from the South Sea to the Outer Heaven Divine Mountain."

"Really?" Not just the three sisters, all the gathered immortals were stunned.

They weren't doubting Shi Feiyang's mana: "But Purple Cloud Palace is deeply hidden within the sea eye, with a volcano underneath kept in check by the Jade Pillar. Once disturbed, the consequences are unimaginable!"
