Chapter 1456: Primal Chaos, Bloom
With the entire Di Flame Province falling under the Di Clan’s control, it proved that the Di Clan had a terrifying accumulation of strength and wealth. They might not be comparable to the ancient Yu Clan, but they definitely weren’t weak.
The various organizations of the Western Desert were on high alert. They all realized that the Di Clan probably harbored big ambitions. With the rumors that the Di Clan was an imperial clan, there was a possibility that the Di Clan would try to conquer the entire Western Desert in the future. That was not something any of these organizations wanted to see happen.
Before long, news of the Di Clan’s marriage alliance with the Yu Clan spread. The marriage was between the Di Clan’s prince, Di Mie, and the Yu Clan’s holy maiden, Yu Caidie. Xiang Shaoyun was unaware of all of this because he had gone into seclusion after returning from the Dragon Society.
After Xiang Shaoyun formed a true star within his body and fused himself with the primal inception energy, his body no longer had any flaws. Despite having the strongest battle physique in existence, he still had a long road ahead of him. He needed to master his usage of the various profundities to maximize his combat strength.
Apart from the nine profundities, he had also grasped the profundities of time, life, and devil dao. All these profundities were enough to set him apart from any genius cultivator in existence. After all, nobody had such a terrifying perception that they could comprehend so many profundities.
At present, Xiang Shaoyun still needed to comprehend the profundities of primal chaos and primal inception. He was confident he would grow into the strongest cultivator in existence if he could comprehend these top profundities as well.
With the Desolation mantra as the foundation, Xiang Shaoyun activated the Light of Wisdom. His understanding of the various profundities started deepening, while the relationship between the five elements became clearer to him. He circulated the five elements incessantly. Water countered fire, fire countered gold, gold countered wood…earth supported gold, gold supported water, water supported wood…
Xiang Shaoyun was completely enveloped in a revolving five-colored radiance. As the radiance revolved around him, the ambient energy in the air around him was affected. The ambient energy started moving in accordance with the five-colored radiance. Before long, the entire cultivation room was flooded with the five-colored radiance.
Sitting in the middle of all that, Xiang Shaoyun’s body turned incorporeal, appearing and disappearing again and again. His comprehension of the elements continued deepening, reaching a point where he seemed to be able to witness the creation of the world and the birth of primal chaos. The sensation was vague, but it was enough to give him massive benefits in his cultivation.
“Primal chaos, bloom!” Xiang Shaoyun suddenly roared. The five-colored radiance grew even brighter before transforming into a primal chaos lotus. The petals unfolded one after another while strands of primal chaos energy danced about in the air, transforming all the ambient energy in the room into primal chaos energy.
This was a sight capable of shocking countless people. Since when was primal chaos energy something a human could create? One ought to know that every strand of primal chaos energy was as powerful as God Realm energy. It could increase the strength of a cultivator and improve the physique of a cultivator. It could also cleanse the body of newborns. One could say that primal chaos energy was the basis of all creation. Therefore, creating primal chaos energy was an extremely shocking feat.
Unfortunately, Xiang Shaoyun was unable to maintain the primal chaos lotus for long, making it impossible for him to generate primal chaos energy without limits. After all, his cultivation of the primal chaos energy was still rather shallow. Just this feat alone was already a massive improvement for him.
As the lotus faded, Xiang Shaoyun opened his mouth and absorbed all the primal chaos energy around him.
“The primal chaos energy is still somewhat lacking compared to the primal inception energy. However, it is still an incredibly valuable energy for a regular person,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a sigh. “Before I go looking for Father, I need to leave something for the sect. Only by encouraging the growth of the future generations would the sect stay strong.”
Instead of ending his cultivation, he took out some battle techniques and went through them rapidly. With his Light of Wisdom, he could easily memorize a massive number of techniques. These were the techniques he had plundered from the many Saints he had killed. The only reason he was learning so many techniques was so that he could better control the many energies he had. Only then would he be able to deepen his understanding of the energies and further his mastery of the dao of time and dao of primal chaos.
Only after memorizing all the techniques did Xiang Shaoyun end his seclusion. With one step, he arrived before the Books Pavilion. He left all the battle techniques below the saint-grade in the pavilion. This place would be made available to all the overseers and disciples that had made a great enough contribution to the sect.
Any organization would need to maintain a competitive environment. A lack of competition would only cause one to be lazy and stagnant.
Next, Xiang Shaoyun arrived before several mountains near the sect. With his divine dao eyes, he saw through everything in the area before selecting nine mountains. He then laid out a powerful formation to link up all nine mountains.
A large number of demonic beasts resided on these mountains, but Xiang Shaoyun did not drive them away. Instead, he allowed them to stay. After placing the formation, he blasted a considerable amount of saint crystals deep into the mountains. Soon, a saintly radiance started hovering above the mountains, forming an enchanting scene that caused the Ziling Sect members and the nearby demonic beasts to exclaim in shock.
“Why is there suddenly a phenomenon? Is some treasure about to appear?”
“It seems to be the power of a formation. In our sect, the young sect master is the only one who can lay out such a powerful formation.”
“Look, it’s the young sect master up in the air. Looks like he’s trying to do something.”
“The young sect master is already a Saint at such a young age. I believe he will probably become a God before he reaches 100. He’s too incredible. From now on, he’s my role model.”
“If I can grow to be half as strong as the young master, I can die without regrets.”
…
The formation Xiang Shaoyun had just placed was called the Nine Stars Palace. It was a top-tier saint formation that was almost as powerful as a god formation. The Nine Stars Palace gathered the powers of nine stars to form a supreme palace.
After placing the formation down, Xiang Shaoyun had people construct nine Star Pagodas at the peak of the nine mountains. These pagodas would be the most dazzling buildings in the Ziling Sect.
Purple Lightning Marquis suddenly appeared beside Xiang Shaoyun and asked, “Overlord, what are you planning to do?”
“I’m building an inheritance system for the profundities I’ve mastered. If every member of the sect can comprehend a profundity, the Ziling Sect will grow stronger. A day will come when we grow to a point where we’re comparable with the four ancient academies,” said Xiang Shaoyun.
“The overlord has grand ambitions. The Ziling Sect will only grow stronger and stronger,” said Purple Lightning Marquis. “The Xiang Clan is ready. They can move into the Ziling Sect at any time.”
Xiang Shaoyun waved his hand and said, “They don’t need to come. Let them establish a headquarters where they are hiding. When the Ziling Sect becomes a tier-8 organization, we will announce an alliance with the Xiang Clan.”
“You’re planning to separate from the Xiang Clan?” asked Purple Lightning Marquis.
“My father was a member expelled from the clan. His sole purpose for founding the Ziling Sect was to one day surpass the Xiang Clan. As his son, I must achieve this goal on my father’s behalf.”
