Qi Cultivation Starting from the Repair Panel

```

Just like the Southern Territory Song Clan, as the ancient ancestor of the Song Clan, Song Xiao had no objections whatsoever to the summoning order from Taixuan, and he was the first to bring the clan's best magic treasures and step into the Sect Gate of Taixuan.

Chapter Continue:

He didn't even bother to arrange his affairs for after his departure, the current Family Head of the Song Family was still in charge, and everything operated in an orderly fashion, with no need for undue worry.

Moreover, there was Chu Zheng to look after things.

Chu Zheng owed a great debt of gratitude to the entire Southern Territory Song Clan, and to die for him was something Song Xiao did without any regret, as he believed it to be a death worthy of his life.

However, other forces were not so forthcoming, and many were dragging their feet.

Looking at the chaos before him, Chu Zheng fell into deep thought for a moment.

According to what Geng Yiyang had said, this space passage outside of the realm had appeared less than two months after he had entered the Secret Realm.

According to the timing, it coincided with the days following his acquisition of the Taoist Orthodoxy transmission.

This inevitably raised some doubts in him.

If this matter really had something to do with Ancestral Dao, then what could be behind this space channel?

Friend or foe?

...

...

The news of Chu Zheng ascending to be the new Taixuan Holy Master spread quickly, naturally causing shock amongst all parties involved.

A twenty-year-old Holy Master was unprecedented, even if one searched through the ancient history of Cangyun.

On the other hand, the few true disciples from Tai Xu who had entered the Cangyun Secret Realm were successively brought back by their senior sect members to their respective Holy Lands.

Except for Ji Xiao, they all had their gains.

In the Cangyun Secret Realm, there were many wonders and countless opportunities for Immortal fates.

Although most of the haul, including the Flowing Cloud Umbrella, had been looted by Chu Zheng, He Yu and the others still had some small fortunes, not returning empty-handed.

When they learned that Ji Xiao was still alive, the expressions of He Yu and the others became somewhat unnatural.

Although from their perspective, their choices back then were not wrong, they had essentially abandoned Ji Xiao to her fate.

As fellow sect members, they ultimately felt they had let down Ji Xiao.

As for Ji Xiao, she did not mention the events within the Secret Realm, reacting indifferently, seemingly unconcerned, and she was just as astonished by the news of Chu Zheng becoming the Taixuan Holy Master.

Outside, rumors swirled, with many cultivators sneering behind closed doors that Taixuan had no one left and could only push a child who had just turned twenty to the forefront.

However, most of these rumors carried a hint of envy towards Taixuan and Chu Zheng himself.

No one in the past had ever shouldered the leadership of a Holy Land at the age of twenty.

...

...

Soon, the preparations of the several great Holy Lands were complete, and they headed to the location where the space channel would open at the agreed time.

After receiving permission from Geng Yiyang, Chu Zheng was allowed to accompany them, planning to depart on the eve before the opening of the space channel.

The reason he wanted to be there was that Chu Zheng hoped to discern something through his Spiritual Eye.

This time, the space channel outside of the realm opened in the strait at the northern part of the Southern Region, situated between the Southern Region and the Demon Plains of the Northern Region.

Therefore, the Five Great Holy Lands of the Southern Region reached the fastest.

Space channels too are graded; channels that are too fragile cannot accommodate powerful beings passing through.

And this channel that had appeared in the North Sea, judging by its spatial fluctuations, was strong enough to allow beings of the True Immortal Realm to cross space and reach the Cangyun Realm.

This was precisely why Ji Yuyan was so anxious this time.

A channel that could support a True Immortal's crossing was far too dangerous for the Cangyun Realm, and even if he sacrificed himself, he might not be able to completely seal the channel.

In comparison to other Holy Lands and Immortal Sects, the number of people from Taixuan seemed pitifully small; even with the addition of Divine Infant Cultivators from within Taixuan City, they barely numbered a hundred.

Most of the other forces arrived in large groups of several hundred, with Divine Infant Realm cultivators making up eighty percent.

```

All manner of Immortal Treasures stretched across the sky, terrifying auras clashing against each other. Even before a blow had been struck, the very void was already filled with all sorts of cracks, Immortal Light brimming and spilling forth.

Chu Zheng scanned his surroundings, involuntarily taking in a deep, cool breath.

Just the Five Great Holy Lands of the Southern Region had each brought out two Immortal Treasures, and when added to the Tongxuan Spiritual Treasures, their numbers had already surpassed a hundred.

Chu Zheng's gaze lingered in the direction of the Primordial Spirit Holy Land for a moment, where he saw Shang Zuling, still clad in her earthy-yellow vestment robe, tall and elegant, unlike any ordinary woman.

Compared to the last time he saw her, her aura had become much deeper; clearly, she had made significant progress, and the Creation and Transformation Yanshen Scripture had been of no small help to her.

Shang Zuling, sensing Chu Zheng's gaze, returned the look and nodded her head as a form of greeting.

Ji Yuyan's figure appeared in the sky above, and the tumultuous crowd instantly fell into dead silence.

His gaze slowly swept over the many Immortal Treasures present, and the furrows between his eyebrows finally relaxed for a moment.

"The Taixuan Holy Land is still one Tongxuan Spiritual Treasure short."

The Taixu Saint Lord looked toward the location of the Taixuan Holy Land and said in a slow voice,

"A few days ago, Chu Zheng ought to have obtained a Tongxuan Spiritual Treasure from the Cangyun Secret Realm. I witnessed this with my own eyes as part of the Tai Xu True Transmission. You better bring it along, after all, it is better to have an additional source of strength."

His sudden statement was not meant to cause trouble but stemmed from some concern that Chu Zheng, the Demon Lord of Mayhem, would use this Tongxuan Spiritual Treasure to stir up trouble opportunistically.

Now, all the Divine Infant Cultivators of the Cangyun Realm had already headed to the battlefield, leaving behind only those who were basically no match for Chu Zheng.

If Chu Zheng were to wield the Spiritual Treasure and cause trouble at this moment, he feared no one would be able to stop him.

Geng Yiyang turned to look at Chu Zheng with a slight puzzlement. He wasn't very clear about Chu Zheng's gains within the Secret Realm.

"Indeed, that is true."

Upon seeing Ji Yuyan's gaze turn toward him, Chu Zheng did not hesitate and took out the Flowing Cloud Umbrella, handing it over to Geng Yiyang,

"I had no intention of concealing it, just that it did not occur to me for a while."

In his hand, he still had the Lihuo Spear, plenty for self-protection. There was no need to quarrel with the Taixu Holy Land over the Flowing Cloud Umbrella, especially at such a critical juncture.

The Tongxuan Spiritual Treasure had already recognized its master and naturally did not resist Chu Zheng's command, obediently falling into Geng Yiyang's hands.

After receiving the Flowing Cloud Umbrella, Geng Yiyang's heart slightly relaxed. He was thankful that no one in the crowd knew of the existence of the Lihuo Spear, which could remain safely in Chu Zheng's possession.

With an uncertain future ahead, keeping a means of protection was more than welcome.

The Taixu Saint Lord did not stop there and turned his head to look toward Ji Yuyan,

"The sword array that Chu Zheng used on the Immortal Martial Battlefield, its quality is above Even the Top Quality Magical Treasures. Although it does not have a spirit of its own, I imagine it can be quite useful."

"No one can use that sword array."

Ji Yuyan shook his head before Chu Zheng could speak. He had also studied the Five Elements Sword Formation, but without the Power of the Five Elements, deploying the sword formation was extremely exhausting, as the energy would be quickly depleted—not worth the loss.

After all, this was a Taoist School sword formation, belonging to the lineage of Qi Cultivators. The formation could display such might in Chu Zheng's hands because of his exceptional talent.

Seeing this, the Taixu Saint Lord no longer spoke, not wanting to question Ji Yuyan further and risk causing displeasure.

Looking into the void not far away, Ji Yuyan slowly exhaled a turbid breath,

His plan was simple and crude: to directly deploy the Immortal Treasure into the other end of the spatial passage the instant it opened, and then quickly seal up the passageway.

By leaving no way back for himself, this battle might just have a glimmer of hope for life.

Within the crowd, Chu Zheng slightly raised his head, gazing into the distant void, a faint glint of Spiritual Light in his eyes.

[Spatial Passage (Eighth Order): A powerful being has forcibly opened a channel capable of accommodating True Immortals, nearing completion. Unless interfered with by external forces, it will break through in five days. (Detail)]

[Detailed Information: The Heavenly Dao aura leaking from the passage is extremely chaotic, encompassing at least a hundred varieties.]

From this particular passage, he did not sense any evil aura, which was enough to prove that this channel did not lead to the Evil Demon Realm.

This was arguably the best possible outcome so far.

However, the message from the interface undoubtedly revealed an unsettling piece of news: this passage was opened by a powerful being, and to be able to open an Eighth Order passage, it indicated that the strength of this being was at least on par with a True Immortal.

Furthermore, from the additional detailed information, the world connected to this passage had a completely chaotic Taoist Orthodoxy with at least a hundred factions.

Chu Zheng gazed for a long while and sighed inwardly. His cultivation was far too weak; at such a turning point, he simply could not play any effective role.
