The news of Li Mo's achievement as a Land Immortal, after circulating in a small circle, quickly faded amidst the turmoil spreading across the Cultivation World.

For the current landscape, one more Land Immortal makes little difference.

Rather, the port is receiving increasing attention from various factions. After all, the Outer Heaven Meteorite Crater has already gathered over ten million cultivators, a scale far beyond the imagination of medium and small-sized sects.

The Heavenly Sword Sect deliberately selected a portion of its disciples to station at the port.

The Great Sun Sword Tomb only allowed Ye Zhuo Daoist and Jiang Xi to return to the port. Presently, Zhang Qiyang is severely understaffed, and routine issues in the Outer Sect can't possibly warrant sending a Void Refining Stage Elder.

Li Mo observed the sword cultivators for over half a year and noted how readily they accepted the Immortal Creation Body, perhaps due to his reputation within the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Taiyi Taoist has already become a representative figure of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

The Heavenly Sword Sect limited itself to having some of its disciples experiment with the Immortal Creation Technique, while some medium and small-sized sects in the Cultivation World brazenly switched entirely to cultivating the Immortal Creation Body.

Resources produced from Spirit Fields have also started leaning toward supporting the Immortal Creation Body.

Such developments were, of course, what Li Mo was hoping to see.

The spread of the Immortal Creation Technique would generate a vast amount of related resources in the Cultivation World, indirectly bringing him significant benefits.

"In recent years, the rumors have become increasingly absurd."

Li Mo had already returned to the central giant tree at the port. Sweeping his Divine Sense over the piles of Jade Scrolls, he noticed that the number of inexplicable gossip and speculation was on the rise.

"In a certain town in the northern lands, a hundred-year-old man gave birth to a child…"

"When disciples of the Creation Sect arrived at the town, the old man had already died suddenly. His corpse was reduced to ash through combustion, and the so-called child was nowhere to be found."

"Moreover, there's a long-abandoned dried-up well in a village that suddenly began producing sweet spring water."

"All who drank the spring water found that all traces of Death Disease on their bodies disappeared, transforming them into young people in their early twenties. However, they perished within ten days, their Dao dissipated."

"The village suffered near-total casualties, and by the time the Creation Sect disciples arrived, it was a desolate village. The so-called spring well had vanished, leaving only a muddy pit to the north of the village."

Such calamities were countless, most caused by deceitful objects, while others were inexplicable, perhaps the work of passing cultivators.

"Tricky to handle."

Li Mo's expression turned grave, fearing it might involve a transformation of Heaven and Earth. Yet, judging by the reactions of various factions, it didn't seem as though history would repeat itself anytime soon.

He instructed the Creation Sect to continue their investigations, as the onset of Heaven and Earth transformations might be hidden within these incidents.

Clang.

A sword sound echoed from Li Mo's spine. The Inch Immortal Bone was forming bit by bit, stirring unease in the other Immortal Bones, and the aura of his Taoist Body leaked outward.

The Spider Sword Orb crept within his flesh and bones.

The Symbiotic Dharma Body also became incredibly active. Numerous Lifebound Flying Swords coursed through his Dantian, with the greatest beneficiary being the Symbiotic Dharma Body due to the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone.

Li Mo had little new insight into the Ru Dao Sword Intent, but he had unconsciously comprehended over ten types of Mahayana Sword Intents, all discovered during the process of nurturing the Immortal Bones.

Crack, crack, crack...

The sound of bone collisions echoed incessantly.

When the Inch Immortal Bone initially formed, the surrounding air distorted, revealing fissure-like patterns resembling cracked mirrors.

Li Mo tried his best to suppress his aura, but the Ten Thousand Transformation Immortal Bone inevitably leaked.

Thousands of cultivators at the port suddenly found themselves displaced, some even trapped partially within tree trunks.

Li Mo hastily contacted Tian Changwen via a mental message, and, after much effort, regained control over the Inch Immortal Bone.

"It's not the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone losing control, but rather the innate sharpness of the Sword Dao. Anomalies are inevitable during the formation of Immortal Bones, easily affecting the port."

After a moment of hesitation, Li Mo communicated with the Symbiotic Dharma Body.

In an instant, he disappeared from the giant tree, arriving in the Void Realm of the Symbiotic Dharma Body: the Ancestral Dragon Pond formed by clouds and mist.

The Symbiotic Dharma Body had reached the Harmonization Stage, dramatically transforming the Ancestral Dragon Pond.

Its area had expanded tenfold, and ancient Dragon Clan ecosystems began emerging within the Void Realm, such as the Dragon Blood Coral Group unique to dragon ponds or algae that helped purify dragon bloodlines.

Li Mo surveyed his surroundings, clearly sensing that the spiritual wisdom of his Lifebound Flying Swords had improved.

Various spirit-attribute dragon species gathered together, occasionally engaging in skirmishes, especially in groups where True Dragons resided.

Scanning several True Dragons, Li Mo observed that their Sword Intents only reached the Mahayana level.

"True Dragons should still be able to undergo transformation, right? In the end, having Lifebound Flying Swords capable of carrying Life and Death Sword Intent might require waiting until their numbers increase."

Li Mo sat atop the water of the dragon pond, faint blood light emanating from him.

After briefly reviewing the Taoist inheritance of the Blood-tainted Sword Tomb, he immediately began the procedure of nurturing Immortal Bones, without any worry of failure.

Crack, crack, crack.

In just ten days, the Blood-contaminated Immortal Bone was complete.

The Ancestral Dragon Pond surged with massive waves, as Blood Attribute Lifebound Flying Swords danced around Li Mo, only to shatter under the pressure of the Immortal Bone.

A few Blood Attribute Flying Swords survived and immediately began exhibiting traits of True Dragons.

"Kya ha ha, not bad!"

Seeing this, Li Mo no longer held back. The aura of the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone enveloped the Ancestral Dragon Pond, inciting a frenzy among the countless Lifebound Flying Swords.

The Lifebound Flying Swords continually broke apart, but the Symbiotic Dharma Body's speed of birthing Fish Dragons was even faster.

True Dragons, which would usually require Innate Essence for birth, could now undergo dragon transformation with just strands of Immortal Body aura.

Li Mo then immersed himself in the process of refining the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone, utilizing the vast number of Spider Sword Orbs to conduct procedures simultaneously.

Eighteen sections of Immortal Bone.

The pores of Li Mo's body automatically exhaled and inhaled Sword Intent.

Twenty-two sections of Immortal Bone.

Various Sword Intents began spreading throughout his skeletal structure, further hardening his bones, turning them into jade-like sword artifacts.

Twenty-six sections of Immortal Bone.

Li Mo suddenly fell into an epiphany. Countless Taoist Body features flashed through his mind, and he instinctively began piecing them together.

"Oh?"

Li Mo recalled having encountered a type of Taoist Body known as "Five Qi Chaoyuan."

At the time, he had thought it was merely a superior Dao Body. Now, he realized it could also trace back to an Immortal Body, albeit significantly incomplete.

"This Immortal Body belongs to… the Qi Dao Immortal Sect."

Li Mo immediately started piecing together other Taoist Bodies from the Qi Dao Immortal Sect, managing to assemble roughly ten to twenty percent of the puzzle.

Even from a glimpse, ten or twenty percent of the Immortal Body's characteristics were sufficient to nurture a section of Immortal Bone. The Spider Sword Orbs naturally began the procedure.

Without much interference on Li Mo's part, the twenty-seventh section of Immortal Bone—the Qi Dao Immortal Bone—was successfully formed.

Li Mo dared not delay and continuously repeated a process akin to searching for needles in the vast ocean, enabling the birth of a new section of Immortal Bone every two or three days.

Thirty-two sections of Immortal Bone.

When Li Mo reached the originally planned thirty-two sections of Immortal Bone, six Taoist inheritances still remained, and the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone had yet to enter the Transcend Mortality stage.

Based on the known Taoist Body characteristics he possessed, he estimated he could potentially extrapolate three to four more sections of Immortal Bone.

Li Mo intended to remain in closed-door meditation at the Ancestral Dragon Pond until the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone achieved Transcend Mortality. However, Tian Changwen unexpectedly brought him a corpse.

The corpse was placed in the space within the giant tree, clearly having died only recently.

"What the hell?"

Li Mo exited the Ancestral Dragon Pond and, upon seeing the corpse, was startled. Chiefly because the body showed no signs of decay whatsoever.

The corpse was female, curled up with her limbs, her posture resembling that of a newborn baby.

After probing the corpse with his Divine Sense for a few moments, Li Mo discovered that her flesh and bones had solidified, causing her body to maintain the same pose indefinitely.

The most astonishing aspect was that, despite being clearly deceased, the corpse's organs retained traces of vitality, with blood faintly flowing through her veins.

Tian Changwen paid particular attention because the corpse contained traces of an Innate Saint.

"It was found washed ashore on the West Coast by ocean waves from the deep sea. Similar corpses numbered nearly ten thousand, all exhibiting top-level talent."

Various factions scrambled to seize the corpses, and Tian Changwen had to go to great lengths to buy an Innate Saint from a cultivation family.

Li Mo knit his brows tightly.

After questioning Tian Changwen privately, he learned that all the corpses featured female appearances and were even referred to by Loose Cultivators as "Dragon Girls."

After confirming the Innate Saint features of the Dragon Girls, Li Mo preserved the corpse in a wine pool.

"An era of chaos is approaching; monsters are rising."

Li Mo understood that bizarre occurrences would only escalate in the future.

Although territorial divisions by the various factions could contain the disasters to some extent, they also created severe information blockades for everyone involved.

"The Three Pure Heavens are thriving in such times. Just how many of these incidents are related to them?"

Li Mo narrowed his eyes.

He could only ensure that the arrival of the Three Pure Heavens at the port would be detected immediately. Expecting Loose Cultivators to trace their whereabouts was unrealistic.

Li Mo once again returned to the Ancestral Dragon Pond, directing a few Spider Sword Orbs to supplement the incomplete Innate Saint.

Thirty-six sections of Immortal Bone.

Li Mo finally sensed the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone's signs of Transcending Mortality. A shadow of his spine broke free from his body, transforming into a slender Immortal Bamboo that stood unwaveringly.

Each bamboo segment contained Immortal Bone, and the bamboo's tip seemed to pierce straight into the heavens.

Li Mo's expression shifted subtly. When he communicated with the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone using his Divine Sense, endless profundities flooded his mind.

The Symbiotic Dharma Body's tail swayed as an unending array of mid-rank and low-rank Sword Intents manifested, creating marks of various sword scars and patterns across the scales on the body.

Forty sections of Immortal Bone.

The Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone officially transcended mortality, with every bone undergoing mysterious transformations.

Li Mo meticulously felt his body, realizing that the Great Wilderness Immortal Body did not resist the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone. Instead, the two seemed to complement each other.

Boom.

Sword Intent burst forth, reducing the dragon species of the Ancestral Dragon Pond to skeletal remains.

Only a few dozen True Dragons survived, though gravely injured, surviving only with the nutrients provided by the Symbiotic Dharma Body.

"It is done—the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone."

Li Mo opened his eyes, with the number of Immortal Bone segments firmly fixed at forty-two.

Roar.

A True Dragon let out an earth-shaking roar. Its dragon horns grew rapidly, its scales became coarser, its claws dulled, and its body expanded threefold.

An aged horned dragon was born, and its frame could bear the Ru Dao Sword Intent.

Li Mo paid no attention to the horned dragon. Instead, he focused his awareness on the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone, discovering that his body had become a fertile ground for nurturing the remnants of the Dao.

The Dao Rhythms within the forty-two sections of Immortal Bone entwined through his spinal cord.

Crack, crack, crack…

Without active intervention, the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone automatically began deriving new Sword Bones, with any comprehension of Dao Rhythms accelerating the process.

Moreover, existing Immortal Bones could also be nourished through further enlightenment.

"The Great Wilderness Immortal Body adapts to its environment, gradually refining the physical body; the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone self-generates Dao Rhythms, constructing a microcosm of the Heavenly Dao within the body."

"No doubt about it—so long as time progresses, becoming an Immortal is inevitable with such an Immortal Body."

As Li Mo cast his gaze on the Spiritual Treasure, the Ten Thousand Sword Immortal Bone grew impatient. Breaking down the treasure would undoubtedly foster his Immortal Body's development.

However, he wasn't yet affluent enough to treat Spiritual Treasures like Elixirs.

"Magic Artifact Embryos, on the other hand, I still have plenty of."

Using the Artifact Pill Body of the Symbiotic Dharma Body, Li Mo broke down the Magic Artifact Embryos. After consuming twenty thousand, he birthed the forty-third section of Immortal Bone, the Artifact Dao Immortal Bone.
