第四百一十五章 玄黄归一统

In year 57, Han Wuyou broke through to the late Foundation Establishment stage.

In year 58, ten years had passed. The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance dispatched a group of black-robed cultivators to begin clearing out all unaffiliated scattered cultivators across the land.

Scattered cultivators rose up in resistance but quickly crumbled under the pressure. Although the strength of scattered cultivators was indeed not formidable, the combat prowess displayed by the black-robed cultivators during this battle was no small matter either. Despite their relatively low power levels, most were at the Core Formation stage, they fought with terrifying ferocity and ruthlessness, able to hold their own against more than ten same-stage opponents without falling behind. They left no survivors, relentlessly pursuing scattered cultivators wherever they hid.

Blood flowed in rivers across the land as a result. After barely repelling one group of black-robed cultivators, the people from Beyond the World decided to join the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance after much discussion. After studying and practicing secret techniques found within the remains of the Heavenly Mystery Sect, they successfully passed the White Jade Heart-Seeking Platform's test through the efforts of Shuo Feng. They temporarily lay low within the alliance.

In year 60, the war was over. There were no more scattered cultivators within the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's territory. In year 61, a decree from the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance was issued: everyone had a responsibility to maintain the Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit Array. All cultivators in the alliance were required to practice the technique known as "Record of Heaven Repair." Although this technique did not increase their cultivation levels, it would generate corresponding "Heavenly Gift Points" based on their progress in the Heavenly Xuan Mirror. These points could be used to exchange for various techniques and resources.

Despite some resistance, most cultivators complied with the requirements and began practicing "Record of Heaven Repair." In year 63, Han Wuyou broke through to the Golden Core stage. That same year, during a period of seclusion, he gained insight into the "Heavenly Medicine Immortal Scripture" from a broken array jade plate.

In year 65, rumors circulated that there seemed to be an additional layer of obstruction in the world; cultivators' cultivation achievements did not fully belong to them. A small portion was seemingly lost somewhere and disappeared. This rumor quickly spread before being suppressed. The people from Beyond the World secretly convened, confirming its authenticity through mutual verification. Xiao Heng advised them to keep it quiet.

The next day, a group of black-robed cultivators arrived with an ultimatum warning the people from Beyond the World. In year 69, the Five Elders suddenly launched a surprise attack on Eight Directions Province. They seemed to have found a temporary method to shield themselves from the Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit Array's tracking. They advanced like a wave, seizing half of Eight Directions Province within a single day.

At this moment, countless black-robed cultivators descended, engaging in a bloody battle with the Five Elders. The elite forces of the Five Elders were stronger overall than the black-robed cultivators. However, the latter fought with reckless abandon and seemed to have an endless supply. After heavy losses, the Five Elders had no choice but to retreat.

This battle revealed the identity of these black-robed cultivators: "Heavenly Technicians." In year 71, more information about Heavenly Technicians was leaked. Unlike current cultivation systems, Heavenly Technicians did not need to practice; they could gain access to the power of the Locking Spirit Array by obtaining its recognition and use it for combat. The highest-ranking Heavenly Technicians had a strength comparable to Core Formation cultivators.

In year 72, a shocking news story spread across the land: Golden Core cultivator Tang Fangsheng accidentally killed over one hundred ordinary people during a fight, including a man named Shi Qing who survived but lost his family. Desperate and vengeful, Shi Qing prayed to heaven. For some reason, he gained recognition from the Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit Array and became a Heavenly Technician himself, instantly gaining Core Formation strength to kill Tang Fangsheng on the spot.

A hundred years of cultivation could not match one ordinary person's single prayer for vengeance. The cultivators were shaken by this news.

In year 75, some cultivators discovered that their progress in cultivation was slowing down. In year 80, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance uncovered a major plot to destroy the Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit Array and executed over one hundred people. In year 85, Han Wuyou gained insight into "Refining Furnace Ten Thousand Forms" from the "Heavenly Medicine Immortal Scripture." He studied the scripture, comprehending myriad creatures described within it, and realized that all living beings shared commonalities. The world was like a furnace, melting originally unified life forms into myriad appearances. Practicing this technique allowed one to freely transform among these appearances. As long as one mastered their anatomy, they could change form into plants or beasts.

Ordinary cultivators found it hard to distinguish between the real and fake transformations. Han Wuyou was elated, breaking through to the middle stage of Golden Core cultivation. In year 86, the number of Heavenly Technicians steadily increased.

In year 90, a natural phenomenon occurred: rain fell from the sky as blood, and cries echoed across the land for months on end.

In year 91, a Heaven-Binding cultivator acted to suppress those attempting to overthrow the Locking Spirit Array. In year 101, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance imposed strict quotas on cultivators practicing "Record of Heaven Repair." In year 139, Han Wuyou received a secret message from Xiao Heng and learned that over the years, under the guise of toppling the Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit Array, the "Revive Immortals" had gathered many like-minded cultivators. He also learned an even more shocking fact: countless cultivators had vanished mysteriously over the past century, with no trace left behind. There was ample evidence pointing to the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance as the culprit.

Han Wuyou mastered a more advanced version of "Record of Heaven Repair," which could interfere with the Heavenly Xuan Locking Spirit Array's surveillance within a certain range. In year 150, news spread that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and Five Elders were about to merge. The world was shocked.

In year 159, the Xuan Huang World was unified under one rule. The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and Five Elders became known as the "Heavenly Alliance." A group of Heavenly Technicians began constructing the Locking Spirit Array within former Five Elder territories.

In year 160, Han Wuyou broke through to late Golden Core cultivation. In year 163, during the construction of the Locking Spirit Array, the "Revive Immortals" attempted to assassinate an array mage to obtain the structure blueprint but failed, resulting in the deaths of seventy-eight people. This was followed by a frenzied cleansing by the Heavenly Alliance, leading to many innocent cultivators' deaths. The "Revive Immortals" were forced into dormancy.

In year 171, the Locking Spirit Array was completed across the entire Xuan Huang World. From then on, the sky turned green regularly. A century of relative peace followed. As more Heavenly Technicians emerged, cultivators' cultivation progress slowed and their numbers steadily declined. The seemingly peaceful Xuan Huang World harbored hidden currents.

In year 260, Han Wuyou broke through to Core Formation stage. In year 263, a proclamation titled "A Message to All Cultivators" was spread across the land overnight, marking the beginning of the war between cultivators and the Locking Spirit Array.

Yesterday's backlog wasn't completed. (End of chapter)
