In the high skies of the Northwest Region, the true form of the Cangsheng Sovereign barely hung in the air, his body riddled with dense cracks, looking like porcelain on the verge of shattering.
"I have lost! And I cannot accept it!" The voice of the Cangsheng Sovereign had lost its previous vigor, leaving only endless desolation.
Yu Qingtan did not strike again immediately, for the Cangsheng Sovereign was undoubtedly doomed to die; his body, Nascent Soul, and soul had all been shattered by Yu Qingtan.
"Yu Qingtan, I was born a servant of a cultivator family, my parents were servants, and I was destined to be a servant from birth. This scar on my face is because I accidentally stumbled upon the young master of that family having an affair with a concubine, and he struck me with his whip.
Although I later killed off that cultivator family entirely, I always kept this scar to remind myself to become the supreme being of the Cultivation World and to create a fair and just Cultivation World.
I thought you, who merely came from the Tianxiang Pavilion’s preparatory disciples, would be a comrade with shared ideals, but it turned out you became my undertaker!" The Cangsheng Sovereign’s words were filled with desolation and regret.
"I admire your ambition, but I find your methods difficult to agree with," said Yu Qingtan, her expression neither sad nor happy.
"You’re the victor, and I can’t be bothered to argue with you anymore. I only hope that you can inherit my ambition and bring fairness and justice to the Cultivation World!"
As Wei Cangsheng’s voice faded, it seemed as though the heavens and the earth fell silent for a moment, the wind itself stopping in its tracks.
Yu Qingtan gazed at her enemy about to fall, her heart a tumult of emotions. She didn’t respond immediately, but with a profound look that seemed to pierce through space-time, she saw a distant future.
"Fairness and justice are the aspirations of many cultivators, and have long been the missing foundation in the Cultivation World." Yu Qingtan’s voice was soft but resolute, as she slowly continued, "But true fairness cannot be established through schemes, slaughter, and conquest."
"I have already taken over as the Hierarch of the Sect of Commoners, and I will continue to uphold the principles of the Sect. Rest in peace!"
Yu Qingtan said, and then she struck out with her palm, using the Great Universal Zen Light and the Soul Cleansing and Shaking Technique.
With a smile on his face, the Cangsheng Sovereign Wei Cangsheng vanished into nothingness in the face of Yu Qingtan’s attack.
Yu Qingtan collected the fragments of the Cangsheng Record and the Congregation Mace, then vanished from the spot with a flicker of her form.
Yu Qingtan first returned to the bottom of the Eye of the Storm to meet up with Venerable Shenfeng and Feng Buji, then together they headed back to the Southeast Region.
The next day, Physician Qing, the Hierarch of the Sect of Commoners, announced the death of Wei Cangsheng. Within the sect, some members felt extremely relieved, while others were filled with melancholy.
No matter what, the fall of the Cangsheng Sovereign heralded the beginning of the era of Hierarch Qing.
A year later, the Congregation Alliance continued to expand into the Outer Realm’s Southwest Domain, Western Regions, Northwest Region, Northern Domain, and Northeast Region.
The Insect Tribe of the Southwest Domain and the Demon Race of the Northern Domain almost had control over the entire region, but they lost half of their territory under the campaign of the Congregation Alliance.
Yu Qingtan had no intention of outright annihilating the Demon Race, the Insect Tribe, and the Sea Clan, but neither was she going to let them live too comfortably.
The Buddha Sect of the Western Regions also joined the Congregation Alliance, persuaded by Yu Qingtan.
The fact that Fairy Qingtan was an incarnation of Yu Qingtan was generally known to the upper echelons of the top forces in the Outer Realm, though they did not spread the news.
Yu Qingtan herself began a life of semi-seclusion and partial cultivation retreat on Luo Li Island, while Fairy Qingtan managed the Sect of Commoners on the outside.
Some of the Demonic Forces in the Outer Realm, such as the Gu Divine Sect of the Southern Region, had no choice but to turn to righteousness under the pressure of the Congregation Alliance.
The Qian Family of the Eastern Region was forced to give up ninety percent of their resources.
Under the management of the Sect Hierarch of the Congregation Alliance, the entire Outer Realm of Lichuan Cultivation World flourished, with countless talented cultivators emerging like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Cultivators no longer fought internally over resources frequently but searched for resources through hunting, gathering, planting, breeding, and mining. The distribution of resources was more based on contribution.
Although the gap in cultivation talent meant that cultivators with higher aptitude cultivated faster and were more efficient in obtaining resources, the popularization of the Five Elements Technique made this gap not so despairing.
Time passed by swiftly, and over a decade had passed.
Yu Qingtan, on Luo Li Island, opened her eyes from her seclusion, her gaze flickering with divine light.
Having experienced the Great Dao Principles’ imprints of other five elements’ paths by burning lifespan, Yu Qingtan, with her Five Elements Primordial Immortal Body, successfully imprinted the Wood, Fire, Gold, and Earth Path principles inside her body the year after killing Wei Cangsheng.
Later, with the help of the numerous Void Stones obtained from Emperor Xuanyu’s abode, Yu Qingtan imprinted the Space Law.
In recent years, due to the strength of her soul, Yu Qingtan could vaguely sense the existence deep within her Sea of Consciousness – her system father.
She tried to communicate with it, and although she didn’t succeed, she didn’t completely fail either.
Every time she held a system lottery, she conveyed her wishes for certain items to the "Fairy Cultivation System."
Amazingly, this truly helped in drawing the items she desired.
Although the chance was still pitifully low, the items that came out were good and helpful, unlike the Superior Dao Artefact grade men’s clothing she had once drawn.
Therefore, over the years, she had drawn an inner core of the Dragon Emperor that could help her comprehend the Principle of Power and a Soul Crystal that could help her comprehend the Soul Dao Principle.
The Dragon Emperor was an existence of the Eighth Stage of the Dragon Race.
The Soul Crystal was the core of an Eighth Stage Soul Devouring Beast.
With the help of the Dragon Emperor’s inner core and the Soul Crystal, Yu Qingtan imprinted the Strength Principle and the Soul Dao Principle.
At this moment, her power was almost invincible among those in the Void Refinement Stage. Because most Void Refinement Stage Cultivators only focused on one path, those who could simultaneously cultivate two or three paths were the elites among elites.
Yu Qingtan even had the potential to break through to the Body Integration Realm, but she did not intend to do so because the appearance of Body Integration Realm power in the Outer Realm would immediately attract divine punishment.
The Heavenly Decree Deceiver wouldn’t be of much use because the Outer Realm was relentless against the existence of the Body Integration Realm.
Furthermore, Yu Qingtan wanted to imprint the Time Law, but unfortunately, the system lottery didn’t yield any treasures that could aid in comprehending the Time Law.
Yu Qingtan had also thought about obtaining an Immortal Artifact directly through the system lottery, but to no avail.
When Yu Qingtan stepped out of her secluded cave, she saw a Treasure Artifact grade Message-Transmitting Flying Sword outside the cave. Yu Qingtan took it and infused it with her Spiritual Power.
"Fairy Qingtan, there’s something I would like you to help with. If you’re free, please come to the Blood God Cult!" The voice that came from within was Fang Ling’s.
Blood God Cult’s Sect Hierarch Fang Ling Venerable was one of the few who knew that Yu Qingtan was in seclusion on Luo Li Island and had even visited the island as a guest.
After all, Fang Ling was Yu Qingtan’s friend and was also a Divine Transformation Late Stage Cultivator.
"Fang Ling is asking for help, which must mean it’s no small matter. Let’s go then!" Yu Qingtan murmured to herself, and then her figure vanished from the spot.
