Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

Cangyun Realm.

Southern Region.

In recent years, the changes in the Southern Region could be described as earth-shattering.

The original Five Great Holy Lands, with their Primordial Spirits wiped out, Taixuan excluded, and Tai Xu sealed off to avoid the world, the glory of the Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects still fresh in memory, and yet in just over a decade, three of the Five Great Holy Lands had already vanished.

Now, only Heavenly Throne and Golden Glass still stand in the Holy Lands.

However, these two Holy Lands have not reaped many benefits in recent years either. Since Shang Cangyun defected from the Immortal Alliance, the Immortal Alliance dispatched a Seven Tribulations True Immortal to reside permanently in Cangyun, take charge of the Heavenly Dao of the Cangyun Realm, and begin to sort out the chaos in the Heavenly Fate caused by the unsealing of the Cangyun Secret Realm.

With such a being present in the current age, even the Holy Lands could not too eagerly annex the remaining resources and influence of other Holy Lands. As a result, the days for some of the smaller Sects have been considerably better in these years.

Due to the changes in the environment between Heaven and Earth, the frequency of top-grade immortal bones appearing in the Cangyun Four Regions has notably increased, and even Superior Immortal Bones have emerged recently.

Without the Holy Lands' intervention, these exceptionally talented Immortal Seedlings have all joined the Immortal Sects, preparing for the next Great Tournament of Ten Thousand Sects.

With the fall of the Holy Lands and the renewed appearance of living creatures due to the unsealed Cangyun Secret Realm, the freed-up resources are enough to sustain thousands of small Sects.

The power structure of the Cangyun Realm is about to undergo its largest reshuffling, a process that will continue for a thousand years.

It is foreseeable that, without the suppression of the Holy Lands, the killing wars between Sects will not cease for a thousand years.

In a corner on the southeastern edge of the Southern Region, a small Sect named 'Taixuan Sect' quietly emerged.

The Sect occupied an area of just over ten miles, with no more than two hundred disciples, among whom only two were Elders at the Divine Transformation Realm, the rest being a bunch of young disciples under thirty, newly adult.

These were all that remained of the Taixuan Holy Land's forces.

A few simple bamboo buildings, along with a not-so-complete Array, made up this small Sect.

The Taixuan Holy Land still had a True Immortal in existence, only that he had always been at the border of the cosmos, guarding the perimeter, and preventing invasions from the Vast Universe.

As for these disciples of Taixuan, the Immortal Alliance had not been too coercive either. After confiscating the Taixuan Immortal Treasure and the Holy Land's treasure vault, they simply let things take their own course.

Many Taixuan disciples were mostly taken back by their families, with only a small part still following Fu Quanliang.

This group of disciples, mostly from ordinary circumstances without clan forces to support them, would not have seen much change in their situation even if they had left.

During this time, naturally, there were many who coveted the Taixuan Divine Fire Scripture, and either overtly or covertly attempted to target this group of the weak.

The complete Taixuan Divine Fire Scripture was now only in the hands of Fu Quanliang.

However, before these people could act, the Song Clan came forward to protect the remaining disciples.

Song Lingqing surrendered the Family Heritage Blood Jade as collateral for practical control over the Song Family Secret Realm, securing temporary protection for the disciples and ensuring their safety for the time being.

Previously, the Song Clan might have to look up to the Taixuan Holy Land. But now, these disciples could remain under the shelter of the Song Clan's tree only through the relationship with Song Lingqing.

The reversal in status between the two parties could be described as the cycle of fate.

At the very least, the Song Clan was once a True Immortal Noble Family, with some heritage in the family, and many True Immortals from their ancestors once joined the Immortal Alliance, fighting for it and burning all their Immortal Blood.

The Seven Tribulations True Immortal who now commanded the Heavenly Dao had personally visited the Song Clan, causing all members to feel unexpectedly honored.

Apart from the Song Clan, the two other True Immortal Noble Families in the Eastern Region also received the same treatment.

Just this one action was enough to make many living creatures in the Cangyun Realm look on in awe, not daring to overstep bounds.

Inside the bamboo building, Fu Quanliang paced back and forth, his brows tightly knitted, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins.

Every step he took, the bamboo house creaked as if, like the present state of Taixuan, it couldn't bear the weight any longer.

Since the day Taixuan had undergone changes, he had never really rested, with barely any time to close his eyes and circulate the Circuit of Qi; the pressure on his shoulders was as heavy as a mountain.

The vast foundation of Taixuan Holy Land was now reduced to nothing more than earthen steps and thatched cottages, hardly shielding against the wind and rain.

Nowadays, storms raged from all directions, and even with the protection of the Song Clan, it was uncertain how long they could hold out.

The disciples remaining within the sect were mostly those with Mid-grade Immortal Bones, and the longest among them had cultivated for only a little over twenty years, with few stepping into the Entry Dao Realm.

Fortunately, Chu Zheng had left him with enough hidden resources.

The two with Superior Immortal Bones who came from beyond the domain, under his arrangement, had been escorted by an Elder of the Divine Transformation Realm and had already left the Southern Region to cultivate in a secret location in the Northern Region.

Besides, the batch of resources Chu Zheng had left was safely preserved by him, unknown to anyone else.

These were not recorded in the accounts of Taixuan Holy Land, so the Immortal Alliance hadn't confiscated them.

This was one third of Tai Xu Holy Land's foundation; the cultivation resources within were immeasurable, entirely sufficient to restore Taixuan's vitality.

But Fu Quanliang couldn't expose these too soon. There were numerous eyes secretly watching Taixuan, and he must remain careful and prudent in his words and actions.

At this moment, what worried him even more was Chu Zheng's safety. The current situation of Taixuan was closely related to Chu Zheng, which was enough to suggest that Chu Zheng had encountered great trouble outside, and might even have drawn the attention of the Immortal Alliance.@@novelbin@@

Communications with the outside world were scarce in the Cangyun Realm, with channels of information blocked. To find out about Chu Zheng's situation now was as hopeless as seeking a path to heaven.

"Daoist Fu."

In the midst of his chaotic thoughts, Song Lingqing stepped into the bamboo house.

"Daoist Song? What instructions do you have?" Fu Quanliang didn't dare to show the slightest neglect. Currently, Taixuan Sect was counting on the Song Clan to survive, and Song Lingqing had shown great favor to Taixuan.

"A True Immortal from the Immortal Alliance has come and summoned me."

Song Lingqing's expression was slightly somber, her tone slightly heavy, "It seems... it's because of Chu Zheng."

Fu Quanliang's face changed instantly, and he became utterly distraught, "What... what should we do? Could there have been some new development?"

Taixuan's destruction was already an event of more than a decade ago, and this sudden summoning by the Immortal Alliance was likely ill-intentioned, possibly indicating new trouble on Chu Zheng's side.

"I have come here to address a few matters."

Song Lingqing, on the other hand, seemed much calmer, with no trace of fear between her brows, she said firmly:

"If my connection to Chu Zheng is exposed, and my elder sister's situation is unclear, she might also run into trouble, though the Song Clan should not be implicated. Taixuan should be safe, at least for the short term, but if I cannot return, you should make preparations earlier."

Song Lingqing's meaning was crystal clear—if she couldn't return, the fragile link between Taixuan and the Song Clan would snap instantly, and Fu Quanliang and the others would face incredibly difficult circumstances.

"Do not worry, Daoist Song, I will make arrangements... take care of yourself."

With these words, Fu Quanliang slowly sat down on the ground, his eyes dimming, feeling somewhat drained for a moment.

Faced with the existence of the Immortal Alliance, all his thoughts and plans were as fragile as thin paper.

Continuing to strive for survival in the gaps was exceedingly difficult.

Song Lingqing remained silent for a moment, then without saying more, she turned and left.

The fact that the True Immortal didn't come for her directly meant the situation wasn't too disastrous. She had an inkling.

Things concerning Chu Zheng couldn't be judged by common sense; perhaps this summoning by the True Immortal wasn't necessarily bad news.
