Mysterious mirror hanging high

"First, I planted a slave mark on Qiu Xuandong. After I die, Qiu Xuandong's true spirit will also be destroyed and his soul will be scattered, but his body will be perfectly preserved."

Xiao Guanying said calmly, "If you refine it into something like a corpse puppet, you can gain the combat power of a late-stage Divine Transformation, with the added bonus of immortality... Although it can't leave Penglai Xianzhou due to its connection to the Penglai earth veins, it can stay in Penglai."

"The calamity of the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty has been resolved. Previously, due to the extraterritorial demon, the Immortal Continent had strayed from its original path. Unless subsequent ascending cultivators reveal new path markers, it will be difficult for the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty to locate the Immortal Continent in a short period of time and send people down to the lower realm again."

"But we must be on guard... When Fellow Daoist Lu and the others ascend, if there are still Divine Cauldron cultivators descending to the mortal world, Penglai, with Qiu Xuandong in charge, will be the last line of defense for the Xianzhou Dao."

"I will inform you fellow Daoists of the hiding place of Qiu Xuandong's remains. I hope you will make good use of it."

Jing Yu, Lu Yingzhao, and the others were deeply moved, thinking, "I previously thought Xiao Guanying enslaved Qiu Xuandong for the purpose of a decisive battle, but I never imagined it was also partly for the future of Xianzhou."

However, Xiao Guanying immediately changed the subject: "Fellow Daoists, please do not be suspicious. My actions this time are conditional... I hope you can retain a corner of the Heavenly Court. Although Xiao Shihua is my demon fetus incarnation, his personality is very different from mine. We are essentially two different people. Please be merciful and spare his life."

He looked at Xiao Shihua, a smile on his face. "The Qian Gang is doomed, but the Sheji has great potential... Even if you ascend to the immortal realm, ordinary people still need to be organized and supervised. I hope you will practice well and see the scenery at the top of the avenue for me."

Xiao Shihua turned his head away, not daring to look at Xiao Guanying, but just sighed continuously.

Then Xiao Guanying said:

"The second thing is, I was born in the Penglai Holy Land. I received guidance from many teachers and mentors in my cultivation. Later, I devoted myself to the path of evil and did many things that harmed fellow disciples. I know my sins are grave... I originally wanted to make some amends after unifying the Immortal Continent, but unfortunately, things did not go as planned."

He bowed to the current head of the Penglai Holy Land, the Supreme [Xiao Zhenyu], and said, "Master Xiao, Guanying apologizes for his sins... If you or other Penglai disciples ascend to the immortal realm in the future, please inform Buyi of your sins and say that Suying, the lower world, is unworthy of being a descendant of the Xiao family."

Xiao Zhenyu remained silent, looking at Xiao Guanying with a look that was half hatred and half regret.

"Little sister..."

Xiao Guanying smiled, as if he had a thousand words to say to Xiao Guanyue, but in the end, he just flicked his finger, and a storage bag fell into Xiao Guanyue's palm:

"These are some spiritual resources that my brother left for you. The road ahead is long and winding, so please take good care of them."

Xiao Guanyue lowered her head, and her hair covered her face, making it impossible to see her expression.

"One last thing."

Xiao Guanying put his hands behind his back, his back gradually straightened, and he regained the image of the emperor who looked down upon the world. He said proudly:

"The Qian Gang Law... even I can't follow it, which means it's a dead end, a dead end. No one in heaven or on earth can follow it anymore... Future generations of cultivators won't need to practice it anymore."

"If there are still those who don't believe it, they can try it. Don't blame me for not warning them."

He snapped his fingers again, a golden light flashed, and fell into Jing Yu's hand.

Jing Yu took a closer look and saw a gilded jade slip in his hand, with the words "Nine Strategies of the Qian Gang" written on it.

"These are some of my cultivation experiences. Fellow Daoist Xuan Jing can refer to them. Even if you exclude the content of the [Qian Gang Law], there are still many things to learn from them."

After doing all this, Xiao Guanying slowly walked towards the throne of the Emperor of Heaven high in the hall. His long robe brushed against the jade steps, and every step seemed to be stepping into everyone's heart.

When he turned around and sat down, the walls of the Qiangang Hall suddenly lit up, and the skylight shone down from the broken dome. Countless golden light spots gathered in the hall, interweaving into a dazzling light curtain around him.

He chuckled, took off the Emperor's crown from his head, and gently placed it between his knees.

In an instant, the inspiration surging in the hall suddenly stagnated, as if the entire heaven was holding its breath waiting for an important moment.

The next moment, Xiao Guanying pointed his fingers like a sword at his brows, and a ray of golden light shone out from his brows. It was soft like the dawn at first, and then turned into a blazing ball of light like the bright sun in an instant.

His tattered imperial robe peeled off piece by piece in the halo, revealing a body covered with Dao scars - those crisscrossing lines were now flowing with the halo, gradually turning into golden seal characters flying all over the sky.

Xiao Guanying's final gaze swept across the crowd, lingered for a moment on Xiao Guanyue's trembling shoulders, and suddenly he burst into laughter.

Before the laughter died down, the whole person burst like a glass cup, and countless gilded light points gushed out, passing through the roof of the hall and going straight up to the sky.

Above the Hetian Realm, a huge spiritual cloud suddenly appeared, covering the entire realm. A moment later, the spiritual cloud condensed into golden light rain, falling on the earth.

"Look, golden rain!"

Countless ordinary cultivators in the Hetian Realm looked up at the sky. Many brave ones caught the golden rain of light with their hands and found that the rain of light seeped into their palms and turned into the purest attributeless spiritual energy, nourishing their meridians and dantian, making their cultivation become a little bit stronger.

There are more golden light rains falling everywhere in the world, like sweet rain from heaven. Every drop of light rain contains the power of creation bestowed by heaven.

In the originally barren mountains, the withered and yellow grass and trees suddenly came alive, the leaves stretched out, the roots grew wildly, and in the blink of an eye, they turned into a lush and green spiritual plant.

Those ordinary weeds were transformed into magical medicines under the nourishment of light and rain. Fine golden lines appeared on the leaves, and they emitted a faint magical fragrance.

In the rivers and lakes, the turbid water gradually became clear, and the impurities deposited at the bottom of the water were purified by the power of heaven. The water became crystal clear, and even faintly emitted a light golden glow.

The originally ordinary fish and shrimp now had spiritual patterns on their scales, and they even raised wisps of spiritual mist as they swam, as if they were about to transform into spiritual beasts.

On the undulating mountains, the originally ordinary rocks were washed by the light rain, and mysterious patterns gradually appeared on the surface. The texture became more and more crystal clear, and it turned into a high-quality spiritual material.

Some mountains that originally had little spiritual energy were now surging with spiritual energy, and even the embryonic forms of spiritual veins were born inside the mountains, making the entire mountain shrouded in a faint spiritual mist.

In the sky of Hetian Realm, the originally gray clouds were illuminated by the golden rain of light, making them dazzling, as if the sky had been washed clean and was as clear as a mirror.

A breeze blew by, and inspiration surged like a tide, making the entire world full of unprecedented vitality.

The many Divine Transformation cultivators in the hall all had their minds soaring, so they naturally noticed this scene. Yang Dingfeng said with emotion:

"Xiao Guanying transformed his body into the Dao. He actually chose to completely dissolve his Dharmakaya and Nascent Soul to increase the spiritual power of the land?"

Xiao Guanyue finally couldn't bear it anymore and burst into tears. However, Xiao Shihua beside her gently held her hand and comforted her:

"Little sister..."
