Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

"Recording ancient history can be done anywhere, you don't have to stay by my side."

Chu Zheng became momentarily dazed as he looked at Bai Nian's eyes, blazing like fierce fire.

Unknowingly, the once somewhat reserved and restrained young boy had grown to this extent.

Leaving his name to posterity had once been his aspiration.

But as his horizons broadened, he had realized that it was almost an impossible feat.

Standing upon the vastness of the Great Universe, how difficult it was to leave a mark for future generations.

The ancient sages, all buried by time, those who have passed on that are still renowned within the Great Universe might number barely two or three, even the Ancestral Dao who stepped into the realm of Daluo Golden Immortal was hardly known by name anymore.

"If I do not follow by the Holy Master's side, what I record can no longer be called 'ancient history,' but merely legends, possibly unable to be preserved for posterity."

Bai Nian shook his head slightly, his gaze firm, unwavering:

"In the current Great Universe, the situation is ambiguous and unclear, if the Dao War is lost, all of the Myriad Realms will be affected, let alone the Qingyun Realm, the future circumstances remain unknown, staying here is no different from waiting for death, so given the likelihood of death, I'd rather choose my own method."

Bai Nian had always had a clear understanding of his own abilities, although his Vast Righteous Qi had soared to the heavens and startled the Ancient Sages to manifest when he reached enlightenment, it didn't mean that his future would definitely achieve great accomplishments, on par with the Ancient Sages.

Even if he ultimately reached such high levels of cultivation, comparable to the Ancient Sages, the heavens and earth he could see might not constitute one or two-tenths of the Great Universe.

But Chu Zheng was different.

The more he knew, the clearer Bai Nian saw the terrifying aspects of Chu Zheng.

When they first met, Chu Zheng was still a mortal peddling goods in Illusory Spirit City, his cultivation not yet reaching the Spiritual Spring, merely equivalent to a small Cultivator in the Nourishing Power Realm, even bargaining over one or two Spirit Stones.

Now, Chu Zheng was a powerful figure of the Immortal Tribulation Realm, just one step away from becoming a True Immortal, even attracting the attention of top-tier powers like the Immortal Alliance that made all Myriad Realms retreat.

This gap is one that the so-called geniuses of the day, even spending thousands or tens of thousands of years, would find difficult to cross.

Yet Chu Zheng had done it in just twenty-four years.

Chu Zheng's speed of progression was witnessed by Bai Nian, who, through years at the Tongjing Institute, had read extensively across both Qingyun Realm and ancient books from the Myriad Realms, yet found no other who could match Chu Zheng in terms of speed of cultivation.

Even the ethereal legends didn't dare to pen such tales, but Chu Zheng indeed achieved it.

Bai Nian didn't care much about the dangers Chu Zheng talked about; he was alone, unattached, with every place under heaven his home, wherever he went, wherever he may die, made no difference.

The future landscapes Chu Zheng would see were bound to be far broader than any he could see himself, and that alone was enough.

"The path is yours to choose, I won't persuade you further, only remind you once, once you join me on this journey, there's no turning back."

"I am aware."

Regarding Chu Zheng's warning, Bai Nian nodded nonchalantly: "What life is there in reverse? Since birth, there has been no path backward."

"Then, do you still have unfinished business in Da Li? If not, we leave now."

Seeing Bai Nian's resolve, Chu Zheng said no more, the road ahead was uncertain, having an acquaintance by his side was better than traveling alone.

He could notstay long, as the Immortal Alliance had secretly dispatched Cultivators across the Myriad Realms searching for his trace, whose power was unknown, thus it was better to depart sooner rather than later.

The Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield, crowded and chaotic, although strong players soared in the sky, there were far more Cultivators of varied strengths; stirring up the muddy waters would be more conducive.

Bai Nian hesitated for a moment, slightly hesitant, "I don't know many people in Da Li, just two or three, and it will take half a day to say goodbye."

"Half a day is nothing to worry about, I'll wait for you here."

Having said that, Chu Zheng sat down on a stone stool in the courtyard, closed his eyes to refresh his spirit, and began to organize his thoughts.

There were many things he needed to do now. Aside from the True Immortal Barrier that was imminent, what was more important was to stabilize his own foundation.

The boost from the Incense Fire Willpower was indeed immediate, but the too rapid increase in cultivation could inevitably lead to an unstable foundation.

It was imperative to stop absorbing the Incense Fire Willpower as soon as possible.

Fortunately, having undergone several lifetimes of tribulations and thousands of years of purification, coupled with the impact of numerous believers' willpower, his mental state had undergone drastic changes.

His mental cultivation was substantial enough that, for now, he had not encountered a situation where his cultivation was difficult to control.

Next was to replenish the foundation of his Small World. Although he had refined a Small World as his foundation, it was still somewhat weak compared to his current cultivation level, lacking complete Heaven and Earth Laws.

This could be supplemented by Primordial Qi.

If the Small World were strong enough, the drawbacks of an unstable foundation would also be resolved easily.

In the Ten Thousand Realms Battlefield, countless living creatures had perished, and there would not be a lack of Supreme Treasure fragments and remnants of corpses, making it easy to collect Primordial Qi when the time came.

Bai Nian considered for a few moments, then took out paper and ink, his brush moving fluidly, and wrote three letters to inform a few old friends. Then he picked up his pen again and wrote a letter of resignation.

He did not plan to say farewell to the Da Li Saint Emperor in person. He knew his own significance; young and without any achievements, yet he had been appointed a fifth-rank official, which clearly showed the emperor's grace.

If he were to say goodbye in person, the Saint Emperor and some of the great scholars in the court would not let him go easily, which could lead to unnecessary trouble. It was better to leave quietly.

Moments later, two of the letters were replied to, and upon scanning them, Bai Nian's expression warmed slightly.

Sometimes saying goodbye did not necessarily require a face-to-face meeting; a letter was enough.

In an instant, another hour passed, and the last letter had not received any response.

While Bai Nian hesitated, not planning to wait any longer, a low voice came from outside the courtyard:

"Mr. Bai, Master Fatan has come to visit."

Hearing this, Bai Nian's expression shifted slightly, and he immediately activated the Array and quickly went out to greet him.

Soon after, Bai Nian returned, followed by a tall figure with a broad Kāṣāya draped over his shoulders, nine feet tall, with robust muscles and bones.

One could tell at a glance that he was a Buddhist Practitioner.

"This benefactor..."

Master Fatan's eyes fell on Chu Zheng, and suddenly a trace of astonishment appeared, pausing briefly with a bit of probing:

"Benefactor, there is a golden light hidden on your body. You must have come into contact with numerous Buddhist articles before, and it seems you have a connection with Buddhism."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zheng was slightly amazed.

Indeed, during his travels, he had collected some Buddhist Cultivation Skills from within the Northern Domain Buddha Country for verification.

Besides the Cultivation Skills, he had also incidentally collected some incomplete Buddhist Ancient Treasures.

Unexpectedly, these items had left traces on him, and even his Shape-Shifting Divine Power had not managed to conceal them.
