Chapter 4805: The Birth of the Innate Spirit of the Dinghaizhu

Time passed, and tens of millions of years went by.

On the Chaos Continent, there was a continuous stretch of lush green mountains.

Wang Qingcheng and Wang Yongqian stood atop a high peak, gazing at the nine-colored thunderclouds in the sky with serious expressions.

Wang Changsheng was in the process of establishing his fifth origin law, and coincidentally, Wang Ruyan was also establishing her fifth origin law. This was not pre-arranged but a mere coincidence.

After years of secluded cultivation, they successively left Qinglian Immortal Island to find suitable places to establish their new origin laws.

A rumble of thunder echoed as thick bolts of nine-colored immortal lightning struck down, heading straight for a steep, high peak.

A massive silver light screen enveloped the peak, like an inverted silver giant bowl covering it.

Bolts of nine-colored immortal lightning continuously struck the silver light screen, vanishing without a trace as if swallowed by the sea.

As time passed, the descending nine-colored immortal lightning grew larger and more powerful, yet the silver light screen remained completely still.

After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the nine-colored thunderclouds churned and surged, transforming into a colossal nine-colored lightning dragon. Its body was enveloped by countless nine-colored electric arcs, emanating an aura of world-destroying power.

The nine-colored lightning dragon circled once in the sky, then plunged down, its massive body colliding with the silver light screen with a muffled thud.

The lightning dragon’s body exploded, transforming into a colossal ball of nine-colored lightning that engulfed a vast area, sending out tidal waves of energy.

Soon after, the lightning dispersed, leaving the silver light screen slightly dimmed but otherwise unharmed.

Wang Changsheng sat cross-legged on a green lotus platform, his expression calm.

He formed a hand seal, and the silver light screen dissipated, transforming into seven silver-glowing command flags that flew into his hands.

These were mid-grade Dao artifacts called Thunder-Binding Banners. Unlike other Dao Ancestors, who did not require a complete set of mid-grade Dao artifacts to establish their fifth origin law, Wang Changsheng was special.

He scanned them and noticed some tiny cracks on the flagpoles of the seven Thunder-Binding Banners. They had sustained minor damage, which could be easily repaired.

Wang Qingcheng and Wang Yongqian flew over, their faces alight with joy.

"Father, Mother is also undergoing tribulation to establish her fifth origin law," Wang Qingcheng said with a smile.

"Are there any anomalies with the Chaos Beasts?" Wang Changsheng asked, getting to business.

Over thirty million years had passed since the last Immortal-Chaos War, and the Chaos Beasts must have significantly recovered their strength during that time.

"No! They've been very well-behaved. Are we planning to launch an Immortal-Chaos War?" Wang Qingcheng asked.

Over these tens of millions of years, the Wang family had gained six more Dao Ancestors. However, the family had not held any Dao Ancestor celebrations; most of these Dao Ancestors were cultivating in seclusion, keeping their existence a secret as part of the family's hidden strength.

"The tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled." Even with only a few of the Wang family's Dao Ancestors appearing openly, they were already the most powerful immortal force on the Chaos Continent.

"No need for that. I just find the Chaos Beasts a bit abnormal; their current docility isn't like them at all," Wang Changsheng said, puzzled.

All things considered, the Wang family had already eradicated four large Chaos Beast tribes but hadn't acquired many valuable items. The total number of fifth-tier immortal materials collected was less than a hundred, and there were no fifth-tier immortal mines.

Most of the Chaos Beasts on the Chaos Continent were not particularly strong, and with Wang Changsheng's current power, he didn't really put them in his sights.

"Perhaps they are recuperating and building up their strength," Wang Yongqian guessed.

Wang Qingcheng took out a small, yellow-glowing mirror and cast a spell into it. Wang Yixin's face appeared on the mirror's surface.

"Ancestor Qingcheng, the Old Ancestor has successfully established his fifth origin law," Wang Yixin said with a smile.

Wang Qingcheng nodded and replied, "Understood."

"Let's return to Qinglian Immortal Island," Wang Changsheng said, transforming into a streak of light and departing.

Not long after he returned to Qinglian Peak, Wang Ruyan also arrived.

Wang Ruyan had also established her fifth origin law, significantly increasing her strength.

"I can't believe we underwent tribulation on the same day. With our current strength, facing Gang alone wouldn't be an issue," Wang Ruyan said confidently.

Wang Changsheng nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he flicked his sleeve, and eighteen Sea-Calming Pearls flew out, hovering in mid-air.

"What's wrong?" Wang Ruyan asked, bewildered.

One of the Sea-Calming Pearls emitted a dazzling blue light, and a handsome boy in a blue shirt appeared. The boy was not corporeal but a phantom.

"A congenital artifact spirit!" Wang Changsheng exclaimed in surprise, knowing he hadn't infused any beast souls into the Sea-Calming Pearls.

A congenital artifact spirit would grow stronger as the Dao artifact's grade increased. However, if a beast soul were infused to act as the artifact spirit, the spirit wouldn't improve even if the Dao artifact's grade did. For instance, a beast soul from a Grand Luo Golden Immortal infused into a Dao artifact could not possibly achieve the power of a Dao Ancestor.

From this perspective, congenital artifact spirits were far more precious.

Congenital artifact spirits were a matter of probability, typically appearing in innate Dao artifacts.

"You could say that," the blue-shirted boy replied.

"Could it be because of the Grand Primeval Dao Stone?" Wang Ruyan guessed, her face full of curiosity.

Wang Changsheng nodded, saying, "Probably."

It wasn't that the longer a Dao artifact existed, the higher the chance of a congenital artifact spirit appearing. Some Dao artifacts had existed for hundreds of millions of years without giving birth to one.

"From now on, you'll be called Wang Hai!" Wang Changsheng named the artifact spirit. With the birth of a congenital artifact spirit, the Sea-Calming Pearls' power would also increase.

"Alright," the blue-shirted boy agreed.

Wang Changsheng flicked his sleeve and put away the eighteen Sea-Calming Pearls.

Wang Yixin entered and respectfully said, "Old Ancestor, two Dao Ancestors have come to visit. Senior Mo Yinyin is also among them."

"Two Dao Ancestors! Please escort them to the reception hall," Wang Changsheng instructed.

"Yes, Old Ancestor," Wang Yixin replied, taking her leave.

"It's quite rare for them to seek us out on their own," Wang Ruyan remarked.

Wang Changsheng had already finished forging the complete set of mid-grade Dao artifacts for Mo Yinyin, and Wang Ruyan had also crafted the fifth-tier immortal talismans for her, which were all handed over to Mo Yinyin.

"They must have a reason for seeking us out, perhaps related to Zhou Dian. As guests, we should meet them and find out their purpose," Wang Changsheng said gravely.

He and Wang Ruyan arrived at the reception hall and took their seats in the main positions.

Soon after, Mo Yinyin and Cui Feng entered, accompanied by Wang Yixin.

After a few pleasantries, Wang Changsheng's gaze fell upon Cui Feng, and he asked curiously, "We left in a hurry last time. How should I address you, fellow Daoist?"

"My name is Cui Feng!" Cui Feng stated his name.

"Fairy Mo, is fellow Daoist Cui from the Ancient Immortal Court? Or is he the reincarnation of a Dao Ancestor from the Chaos Era?" Wang Ruyan asked curiously.

"I am not from the Ancient Immortal Court, nor am I a reincarnated Dao Ancestor. I am a newly ascended Dao Ancestor. For all these years, I have concealed my cultivation and cultivated in seclusion, so not many people knew of my existence; Fairy Mo is one of the few," Cui Feng explained.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan showed expressions of realization. No wonder they hadn't heard of Cui Feng.

"There are many powerful cultivators in the immortal realm, and not all of them are Dao Ancestors from the Chaos Era. Fellow Daoist Wang and Madam Wang are examples," Mo Yinyin said with a faint smile.
