Scholar Zhu received the cultivation technique and examined it. It was a book called "Original Harmony Spiritual Treasure True Scripture," which uses the spiritual treasure as a physical body to then cultivate, opening the Void Great Realm to achieve Harmonization and Immortality.

"This cultivation technique is suitable, but it requires a magical treasure."

Scholar Zhu told Chen Shi about this matter, and Chen Shi gifted him the Yin Yang Sun Moon Ring, smiling, "Teacher, using this Immortal Artifact for cultivation, though not as good as a true Immortal, is not far off."

Scholar Zhu accepted the Yin Yang Sun Moon Ring and said, "Jueyangzi gifted me the book, I must go to express my gratitude."

He came to the third small temple, only to find the door tightly closed, so he had to knock and say, "Thank you, brother Dao, for the book. Zhu has come to express gratitude."

"No need!"

Jueyangzi's voice came through, with a sneer, "I'm not honored by gratitude from the descendants of the dog True King!"

Scholar Zhu was helpless, bowing in thanks outside the temple door, while inside, Jueyangzi jumped down from the Divine Shrine and kowtowed toward the door, shouting, "If I accept your gift, I would wrong my deceased fellow Daoist!"

Scholar Zhu said angrily, "Since you hold a grudge against the True King, why give me the book?"

Jueyangzi, from behind the door, said, "I discovered you're not too bad, so I gave you the book. But being a descendant of the True King, if you thank me, I cannot accept it!"

Scholar Zhu had to return to his small temple, thinking, "What a strange person."

Meanwhile, Chen Shi arranged for the people of Yangu County to go to Changyi County, letting Liu Qinghong protect them. If they couldn't make the journey, they would set up a Divine Shrine nearby for Liu Qinghong, offer a clay statue for worship, which could also shelter them.

However, Liu Qinghong was ennobled as the Divine of Changyi County by Chen Shi, and managing the people of Yangu County was beyond boundaries, done only as a temporary measure.

Chen Shi bid farewell to Liu Qinghong and continued on his journey, looking for the next temple.

"Jueyangzi, were there many immortals in your era?" On the wooden cart, Chen Shi enjoyed the nourishment of Immortal Energy and inquired.

Jueyangzi said, "Not many. At that time, many people had passed the Heavenly Tribulation, cultivated to the perfect realm of Ascension and were just one step away from Harmonization, hence called Demi Immortals. As for achieving Immortality, we noticed possible evil changes upon Ascension, so we dared not ascend."

Chen Shi asked, "When did the True King go to Despair Slope?"

"It was after a calamity occurred."

Jueyangzi said, "It's said that the calamity was caused by excavating a prehistoric Immortal. When the Immortal was awakened, a calamity erupted, covering thousands of miles with countless deaths and injuries. But there is also a rumor that someone achieved Harmonization which triggered the calamity. When I heard of it, the calamity had already been addressed. As for whether it was a prehistoric Immortal or someone achieving Harmonization, it was unknown. After the calamity, I heard the True King went to Despair Slope."

He paused, then said, "It was the two hundred and thirtieth year of Chenghua. After the True King returned from Despair Slope, a few years passed before he implemented the New Method to replace the Old Method, leading to much resistance and vows to die rather than comply. The True King personally visited the Great Holy Lands, and the leaders announced a conversion to the New Method. Following that was the Sealing Immortal Order."

His face turned somber, as many cultivators perished due to the Sealing Immortal Order.

Jueyangzi wasn't from the Court and lacked a comprehensive understanding of the True King's actions in that era. He couldn't wait for the end of the True King Era and decided to ascend, resulting in being pinned by a sword light from the Immortal Realm in his Harmonization Land.

Chen Shi pursued, "Is there truly an Immortal Realm?"

Jueyangzi said, "There should be. Before I ascended, I saw another world, like a dream."

Hearing this, Chen Shi looked up to the sky.

The sky was a vast blue, with three suns emitting light and heat beside the gigantic moon.

One of the suns grew an eyelid from nowhere, blinking, and the blazing flames gushed around under the eyelids.

"How did the True King resolve this catastrophe?"

At that moment, Chen Shi sensed an inexplicable tremor behind his head, and the fourth small temple began forming gradually.

This temple appeared behind the first three temples, its texture was quite rough.

Chen Shi felt a subtle movement in his heart: "The deities I revived, their power grows stronger, and the small temples behind my head increase. I wonder how much longer until Nanny Li revives."

Not long after they departed, a few people arrived here, entering Jueyangzi's shattered Void Great Realm to examine and frown individually.

"The fellow Daoist here has already left!"

"He severed his own realm, falling from Harmonization!"

"What a pity, thought it was a fellow Daoist."

"The people of Despair Slope are here!" They concealed their shapes, watching closely from the shadows.

Moments later, a Glazed Tile Chariot arrived, stopping, with a young man dressed in splendid robes sitting inside, smiling.

A halo hung behind his head, his Void Great Realm, deep and unfathomable.

As soon as the Glazed Tile Chariot halted, numerous Heaven Listeners flew in, recording the changes in this Void Great Realm.

"Yu Changbai!"

Those hidden in the shadows recognized the young man's face. One of the elders said, "I saw him when he was just a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Practitioner. Later, I heard, he became a Heavenly Dao Practitioner."

"How strong is he?"

"Very strong, on par with us."

The elder said, "He has accumulated for thousands of years, and so have we. Despair Slope's inheritance is better, but they don't dare absorb the Evil Qi. We dare, so who is better is still hard to say!"

Yu Changbai gazed at the rosy clouds falling from the sky, eyes lighting up, "Is there really an Immortal Realm?"

He leaped up, flying toward the place where the rosy clouds were falling, increasing speed. The Immortal Realm seemed close, but no matter how far and long he flew, he still couldn't reach it.
