Seeing that the two had almost recovered, Ding Huan finally asked,
"How did you end up in this place?"
This was actually the question that puzzled Ding Huan, since the Four-layered Sea Canyon was boundless and its vast size unknown.
Why had everyone ended up in the same place? That was bizarre.
Hu Wuxin shook his head:
"To be honest, I also don’t know why I ended up here. After we entered the Four-layered Sea, we wandered around aimlessly like headless flies for several months, and before we knew it, we had arrived at the Four-layered Sea Canyon.
I initially thought we had entered unintentionally, but then we met many people inside.
Knowing that there was a cultivator residential area even deeper within, we realized it wasn’t by accident."
Mo Zheng also said, "I always felt that there was some force or something else attracting us here. I believe the others had the same encounter, which brought them here."
Ding Huan suddenly thought, could it be due to the cultivation technique he practiced?
Strictly speaking, the technique he cultivated was not a Cultivation Technique from Triple Heaven Star Land, but the Great Universe Technique he had created himself from insights gained within the Cosmic Vortex.
Another question arose, even if they were attracted to this place, why enter the canyon?
Since they had entered the canyon, it was strange that Hu Wuxin and Mo Zheng’s strength had not caused them to be crushed to death, while those who tried to escape died, which was illogical.
"Lao Hu, Lao Mo, this is not a place to stay for long, let’s leave."
Ding Huan really wanted to know the answers to these questions, but he always had a feeling that this was not a place to linger.
"We can’t get out, we have been walking for half a year. Once you enter the Four-layered Sea, there’s no way out. Eventually, we might even end up at the canyon bottom..."
After the initial excitement, Hu Wuxin felt dejected again.
He and Mo Zheng had wandered around the Four-layered Sea for several months with no sense of direction; the only accessible place was this canyon.
"Just follow me," Ding Huan said, quickening his pace to leave the canyon.
He had a sense of urgency, a need to get away from this place quickly since his strength was still too low.
Maybe when his strength approached that of an Immortal, he would have the confidence to come here.
Hu Wuxin and Mo Zheng followed closely, and after about half a day, Ding Huan stopped.
Seeing Ding Huan taking out a Teleportation Talisman, Hu Wuxin quickly said, "Teleportation is useless here, we might get sent to the bottom of the canyon..."
These words from Hu Wuxin weren’t just nonsense; he and Mo Zheng had used the Teleportation Talisman before to no avail.
The Four-layered Sea Canyon was eerie, and teleporting there was a possibility.
"Stop the nonsense and come here," Ding Huan urged urgently.
Every extra moment spent here increased his sense of crisis.
Hu Wuxin and Mo Zheng had just reached Ding Huan’s side when he activated the Teleportation Talisman, grabbing both Hu Wuxin and Mo Zheng’s hands.
A faint teleportation light swept over, and in the next moment, Ding Huan disappeared from the spot.
When Ding Huan reappeared, he was already at the Teleportation Array at the edge of the Four-layered Sea.
Dropping the two to the ground, Ding Huan breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ding Huan, did you really get us out of the Four-layered Sea?" Looking at the nearby Four-layered Sea, Hu Wuxin’s voice trembled a bit.
"It’s true, we’re out. Isn’t this where we entered initially?" Mo Zheng was also excited beyond control.
"We’re out, and this is the Teleportation Array I set up, fearing that once we got in, we couldn’t get out. I can’t believe it actually worked."
Ding Huan was relieved.
He had been worried that the sixth-level Teleportation Talisman wouldn’t get him out, but it seemed his worry was unnecessary.
As for the Teleportation Array, should he dismantle it?
After hesitating for a moment, Ding Huan decided to keep the Teleportation Array.
The most valuable thing about this Teleportation Array was an Array Flag made from Void Sand, which he could find again.
Just in case he accidentally entered the Four-layered Sea again, having a Teleportation Array here also provided a way out.
"Let’s leave this place first," Ding Huan called to the still-excited Hu Wuxin and Mo Zheng.
...
Days later, Ding Huan took Hu Wuxin and Mo Zheng to the place where he had initially cultured, pointing to the lonely mountain peak:
"I’ve set up a Teleportation Array here; should you encounter danger, you can teleport here at any time.
Also, if you enter that Four-layered Sea again, teleport out promptly."
After speaking, Ding Huan gave each person a stack of Teleportation Talismans.
Hu Wuxin excitedly accepted the Teleportation Talismans:
"Ding Huan, becoming friends with you was the most correct decision I’ve made in my life. I’m ashamed to think that I even plotted against you once."
Mo Zheng also felt extremely embarrassed, honestly speaking, before befriending Ding Huan, he was more afraid of him and also had ideas of using Ding Huan’s strength to venture into the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield.
Now he realized that in the world of cultivation, there really were righteous people like Ding Huan.
Ding Huan patted Hu Wuxin on the shoulder:
"Brother Hu, what’s most important for a person is to have a clear conscience, which allows one’s Great Dao to be unblemished as well."
"I’ve learned a lot," Hu Wuxin nodded gravely.
Having interacted with Ding Huan for such a long time, he suspected that Ding Huan’s cultivation level was lower than his, but Ding Huan’s understanding of the Great Dao definitely surpassed those so-called Immortals.
After Hu Wuxin and Mo Zheng left, Ding Huan immediately set up a Level Seven Teleportation Array right there.
Having set up the Teleportation Array, Ding Huan once more stepped onto the Void Steps and vanished, reentering the Starry Sky Hall where he had previously secluded himself.
Ding Huan implanted two Mid Grade Star Sky Spiritual Veins within the hall, deciding to elevate his cultivation to the Perfection of the Star Realm there.
That was to split all twelve planets in his Sea of Consciousness.
...
No matter which corner of the Triple Heaven Star Land one was in, whenever the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield was mentioned, the image that came to mind was inevitably one of death, desolation, and lifelessness.
Yet, there was such a place within the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield, where hardly any soul soldiers ventured, and where the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was extremely abundant.
The reason was the presence of one hundred and eight High Grade Spirit Veins.
This place was known as the Heaven-Splitting Spirit Source Valley.
The first to discover this place was a woman named Gu Xiqian. She had ventured into the Heaven-Splitting Battlefield only to discover that although there were benefits, dangers were everywhere.
The most terrifying were the groups of soul soldiers; once surrounded by them, one was essentially on a path to certain death.
Thanks to her Cultivation Technique, she cautiously avoided groups of soul soldiers and stumbled upon such an advantageous location.
The absence of lush green mountains and waters didn’t matter—there were Spirit Veins here.
As long as she could cultivate, that was enough.
Initially, Gu Xiqian was still worried about soul soldiers coming here.
After cultivating here for some time, she realized that soul soldiers never came to this place at all, which greatly relieved her. She then sent messages to her companions.
Gu Xiqian dared to call her companions over because she knew the Spirit Veins here couldn’t be taken away.
She had tried various methods, yet none could break the Protecting Array of the Spirit Veins.
Thus, she simply invited her companions to cultivate together.
When her companions arrived, their first thought was also to take the Spirit Veins away. After some effort, they ended up just as powerless as Gu Xiqian.
Thus, companion called companion, and gradually more cultivators started coming to the Spirit Source Valley.
Some weren’t called by companions but came because many people were flocking to this place, discovered by others who also rushed there.
Yan Mei, Mo Huaping, and Lao Liu were among those who saw others coming and followed suit.
Lao Liu changed his Cultivation Technique and finally succeeded in condensing the Star Nebula. Initially, he was still limited by his aptitude and now lagged behind Mo Huaping and Yan Mei in strength.
Fortunately, his knowledge was extensive, and although his aptitude was lesser, he could just about make up for it.
"Xiao Yan, I’m going to die, why are there so many Spirit Veins here? And they’re all High Grade too."
As soon as Lao Liu entered, his eyes widened as he stared at the one hundred and eight Spirit Veins, almost drooling.
The cultivators already in the valley looked disdainfully at Lao Liu—what’s so great about a talking Demon Beast?
If these Spirit Veins could be taken away, would they still be waiting for you?
"Lao Liu, elder brother, don’t make trouble, quickly find a spot to cultivate. The spiritual energy here is too abundant, we will definitely succeed in Star Storage here," Mo Huaping hastily whispered to Lao Liu.
She had the highest aptitude, having already condensed twelve Star Nebulas, just waiting to store stars.
For her, storing stars in such an essence-rich place was definitely not a problem.
"Right, let’s find a place to cultivate first."
Yan Mei’s eyes lit up; he had now condensed eleven Star Nebulas, and storing stars was not far away.
The worst off was Lao Liu who had only condensed six Star Nebulas so far.
Lao Liu didn’t care at all.
He knew well that his future self would have better aptitude than both Yan Mei and Mo Huaping.
Brother Huan had instructed him to independently open new meridians and acupoints; his current slow cultivation was simply because he hadn’t opened many meridians yet.

Once he opened enough meridians, his aptitude would be even stronger than in his previous life.
"Let’s go to that Green Stone; the spiritual energy is rich there and it’s spacious. We three can each take a corner."
Lao Liu had a sharp eye, spotting the best spot at first glance.
Indeed, it was a great spot; the huge Green Stone lay beneath the one hundred and eight High Grade Spirit Veins, shaped like a triangle with the shortest distance between two points being over thirty meters.
Cultivating on that Green Stone meant having the spiritual energy of one hundred and eight High Grade Spirit Veins pouring down.
Even without actively running any Cultivation Technique, one’s cultivation level would probably skyrocket.
Hearing Lao Liu’s words, those around gave him another disdainful look.
As if you were the only one who could see a good spot? Are the rest of us blind?
