Chapter 202: Transformation of Snowy Cave Mountain
Because of his own misfortune, he had studied many ancient texts in depth in order to find a way to counter it.
He had learned that to dispel such misfortune, one needed sufficient merit and only after being bathed in this mysterious yellow energy could it be resolved.
Because of this, he had done many good deeds and was extremely familiar with the concept of merit power.
Completely unaware of what had just happened, Xiao Shou understood what merit power was.
There were plenty of cultivation novels that described it and he was very clear about how important merit was.
However, he had absolutely no idea why merit had suddenly descended upon him.
He looked confused and said, "Don’t ask me. I don’t know either."
"Master, I think I can guess a little," Fu Young said with a smile. "To put it simply, the density of spiritual energy determines the growth of a world. The reason the Spirit Realm is called the Spirit Realm is because its spiritual energy far exceeds that of smaller worlds like the Heaven Origin Realm. The reason the Heaven Origin Realm is a cultivation world rather than a mortal world is because it has spirit veins."
"Originally, the growth of the Heaven Origin Realm had already stagnated tens of thousands of years ago. No, it should be said that it was in decline. The depletion of resources and thinning spiritual energy are proof of this. If this continues, this world may eventually fall back into a mortal realm."
"However, Master unintentionally placed over a thousand low-grade spirit jades into the spirit vein, allowing it to grow and evolve into a small spirit jade vein."
"Even if it is only a small spirit jade vein, it is still unique in this world. And as long as it is not overly exploited, it will slowly continue to grow. In the future, the Heaven Origin Realm will not only stop declining, but may even continue to evolve. It might even reach the level of the Middle Three Thousand Worlds," Gou Guangming said after understanding Fu Young’s explanation, his voice filled with disbelief.
He then added, "Sect Master, you unintentionally stopped the decline of the Heaven Origin Realm and even gave it a chance to grow. That is why the Heavenly Dao rewarded you with merit. As expected of Senior Brother, you are practically all-knowing and all-powerful."
"Junior Brother Gou is overpraising me. I just happen to have read more books," Fu Young replied.
Being praised so directly made him feel somewhat embarrassed.
Would his master laugh at him?
Fu Young nervously glanced at Xiao Shou, but saw that Xiao Shou showed no reaction and was instead concentrating on sensing something.
He must be examining the merit that had entered his body.
Only then did Fu Young quietly relax.
Then he thought again about the words "all-knowing and all-powerful" that Gou Guangming had used.
His expression darkened slightly.
He himself did not understand what was going on either.
Ever since absorbing the evolutionary energy of the Hell Flame Beast, many unknown pieces of knowledge had inexplicably appeared in his mind.
Whenever he encountered something confusing, the answer would automatically appear.
Except for the strange feelings he had toward his master, which he still could not understand, everything else seemed to work this way.
What exactly was happening?
Perhaps once he fully digested the power absorbed by his awakened eyes and completely awakened his bloodline ability, he would finally understand.
Fu Young silently hoped this.
After Xiao Shou came back to his senses, Fu Young said, "Master, Gou Guangming, Gou Zhi, Gou Heng, Gou Yue, let us go in and take a look first."
"Alright."
"I wonder what it has become inside now."
"I am also very curious."
The group continued talking as they entered through the opened formation gate.
The moment they stepped inside, they all showed expressions of shock without exception.
They saw Snowy Cave Mountain that was once a barren and desolate hill had transformed into a mountain range stretching nearly a thousand miles.
The entire range was lush and green.
It’s rising and falling like a coiling giant dragon.
The mountains had also grown to over ten thousand meters in height, with every peak piercing deep into the clouds.
At the very center stood the tallest peak and it looked the most unusual of all.
The entire mountain body was the same color as top-grade spirit stones, and even the spiritual energy it emitted was similar.
It almost seemed as if the entire peak had been formed from top-grade spirit stones.
At the summit stood a naturally formed crystal palace engraved with the words "Eternal Prosperity Sect." Along the edges of the crystal peak, pure and highly concentrated spiritual water flowed down.
It formed a massive waterfall that cascaded downward.
Along the way, it actually flowed in midair, drifting across other peaks before finally reaching the ground.
Seeing this, Gou Guangming said in disbelief, "Incredible. The water is flowing in midair. This clearly means even the magnetic field has changed."
Magnetic field.
Hearing this term, Xiao Shou was startled.
This was not a term used in the Heaven Origin Realm.
Cultivators here would normally refer to it as magnetic spiritual energy or magnetic domain.
The term "magnetic field" was more fitting for a modern world.
As expected, it’s seems this Gou Guangming is not that simple.
He would need to be more careful in front of him from now on.
He should adjust his modern speech habits to avoid revealing anything.
After all, based on typical transmigration logic, people from the same world of origin often ended up as competitors or enemies.
Even though Gou Guangming was now part of his sect, there was no guarantee that risk would never appear.
Still, revealing his identity as a transmigrator to other people felt uncomfortable in every sense.
So it was better to keep it hidden for now.
If it were exposed in the future, he would deal with it then.
