"Sun, water, wood, and earth—the four luminaries are already in my hands." ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Fan Wubing simultaneously operated the Celestial Patrol Skill, Rain Control Skill, Thunder Control Skill, and Dragon Performance Skill, feeling four independent but harmoniously merging auras.
He increasingly understood what it meant to be the Seven Luminaries True Monarch.
Perhaps it’s not suitable to see the Seven Luminaries True Monarch as a specific person at this stage. Even if the Seven Luminaries True Monarch might have once been a living person, now it is entirely different.
Fan Wubing did not know whether he would become the next Seven Luminaries True Monarch after collecting all seven luminaries.
All he could do was continue to search for the colors he recognized in this vast dye vat of fate.
"There are still the moon, gold, and fire luminaries left."
He slowly activated the Supreme Dharma Orbiting Device to begin searching for the traces of the next luminary.
This process lasted for several days, with the Orbiting Device continuously rotating, yet unable to point the direction. From its reaction, it wasn’t that the remaining three luminaries had vanished, but rather...
He attempted to use the Yin Yang Fate Divination Skill he had learned from Pei Weiyi to comprehend this elusive, subtle feeling.
This process took even more time.
He sat cross-legged within a cloud, concealing all his aura, drifting in the sky with the cloud.
During this time, various flying demon beasts and spirit beasts continuously skimmed over the cloud where he resided, and occasionally human flying tools also passed through. But no one could detect him among them, as he was completely integrated with the cloud, or rather, the cloud had become a part of him.
Gradually, some intelligent demon beasts noticed that this cloud seemed more stable than others, persisting without dissipating and even had a Gathering Spirit effect. Thus, more and more demon beasts opted to settle within this cloud.
Originally combative and territorial demon beasts and spirit beasts inexplicably became particularly "gentle" within this cloud, reaching a mutual understanding to not infringe upon each other. They vaguely regarded this cloud as a sacred place because of a vague will that gave them immense reassurance.
They couldn’t say where this will came from or what it was called, but instinctively yearned to get closer.
As the demon and spirit beasts grew more numerous and powerful, the limited scope of the cloud led them to continuously gather thicker clouds to merge within it.
This cloud initially was no more than a hundred feet wide, but in less than three months, it had grown to the size of a city and was expanding at an ever-faster pace.
At this scale, it attracted more than just flying demon spirits; even those from the land and lakes sought ways to enter and claim a spot.
Half a year later, as the number of wise demon spirits increased, they began consciously maintaining and transforming the cloud.
Planting soil, creating lakes, cultivating mountains and stones...
A floating continent gradually took shape under the crafting of the demon spirits.
To the demon spirits, this extraordinary, sacred place floated in the sky.
A year later,
Forests, grasslands, deserts, lakes, marshes, mudflats, snowfields...
Almost every environment and landscape found on earth could be traced here. It was the demon spirits from these varied environments that bit by bit modified it. These originally even antagonistic demon spirits seemed to lay aside former grudges to participate in the creation of a community.
For them, the most sacred place was a certain area in the center.
That spot still retained its original floating cloud form.
No demon spirit knew what lay within, only understanding that it was absolutely inviolable, the core of this grand gathering of spirits.
As this peculiar airborne continent drifted over the sea from the East Continent to the Changsheng Continent, its expanse had grown to span a hundred thousand li, finally drawing the attention of powerful figures.
The East Continent lies northeast of the Changsheng Continent.
Thus, when it arrived at Changsheng Continent, it first appeared at the Northern Port of Changze Bay.
The ninth day of the fourth lunar month.
Three days remained until this year’s Sea of Eternal Life opened.
The various ocean-going forces in Changze City were fervently preparing. The streets and alleys of the city were packed with people coming from various places to either appreciate the scenery of the Sea of Eternal Life or to explore and seek treasures. The port was also crowded with vessels of all sizes, as the major ocean-going powers presented their treasured ships to attract business.
Among them, the Moon-piercing Hall fleet was particularly magnificent, sprawling like a small city, with a small Immortal Fishing Ship at the center, carrying a conspicuous and large banner with words saying—
"The ship of Fu Manman, the White Jade Capital’s Little Freedom Official, Human World Executor Dao of Wangxian Pavilion."
It was evident that the initial phrase "White Jade Capital’s Little Freedom Official" was added later.
With the renowned titles of Little Freedom Official and Human World Executor Dao, the Moon-piercing Hall fleet was especially bustling.
The Hall Master of Moon-piercing Hall, Bai Wenshan, was holding a mobilization meeting on the Immortal Fishing Ship, his voice booming and spirited,
"...Remember our Moon-piercing Hall’s core principle from its inception, ’Nature nurtures, the earth nurtures, the customer is supreme!’"
"Nature nurtures, the earth nurtures, the customer is supreme!"
The disciples of Moon-piercing Hall enthusiastically chanted the slogan.
"Dismissed!" Bai Wenshan nodded in satisfaction.
The mobilization meeting concluded, and the disciples quickly went to their respective posts. The vast fleet began to move slowly, the fragrance released by the crushed Spirit Stones wafting through the air over Changze Bay, as the top-tier propulsion systems produced by the Mo Family emitted a booming sound, like a dragon’s roar.
