245: Chapter 245 Cultivation Ground

The two slowed their descent and exited the high-speed corridor that covered the entire ten-thousand-meter altitude of Blue Star.

Above the endless sea of clouds, a ten-thousand-meter-tall building with intricate beams, carved rafters, blue tiles, and red pillars stood piercing the sky—it was the Guitian Array Domain Tower.

Now, upon approaching this massive structure, even with their spiritual power released, the two could not perceive the slightest aura or law fluctuation from this Purple Mansion Dharma Treasure.

They could only judge by the endless life spirit primordial qi gathered around it that its power far exceeded imagination; once activated, every movement would cause changes in celestial phenomena.

The sunlight of the entire sky here was concentrated by the planetary-scale array domain, just like a flashlight shining onto the tiles of the topmost roof.

This perfectly matched the imagery of "receiving light and absorbing qi" for Earth on the Roof. Although their systems did not deeply understand the characteristics of these images, they could still judge from the varying concentrations of imagery that the tiles on the roof were top-tier Foundation Establishment spiritual objects for cultivating Earth on the Roof.

The two did not approach the Guitian Array Domain Tower too closely, but instead used their communicators to submit the transit pass they had applied for in advance.

A mysterious light of law scanned over them from an unknown source, and the next moment, a crisp female voice echoed in their minds.

"Councillors Simu and Yi Xiu, authority identity confirmed. You may pass."

In their eyes, on the floor a hundred meters high near the clouds, the words "Passable" appeared on the outer light screen.

Passing through the light screen, they first reported their duties at the central hall office, then observed the Guitian Array Domain Tower, which had undergone earth-shaking changes in the five years they hadn't seen it.

Daoist Master Sumu sensed the even gentler life spirit primordial qi inside, with thick law-based Dao implications circulating throughout the entire high-rise every moment.

"Living here for a long time, even without cultivation, one's Daoist attainment would grow uncontrollably."

Upon realizing this, Daoist Master Sumu was a bit stunned, recalling how back then they were still bitterly pursuing the legends of ancient sages riding dragons to ascend or becoming immortals through weapon transcendence, trapped in a hundred years of cultivation, merely achieving keen senses and health and longevity.

But now, even just these Foundation Establishment cultivators ascending to the heavens and diving into the earth, enjoying a lifespan of 800 years, was something mortals could not understand.

For people like them who had joined sects early on, worldly desires were originally very few, and now that there was an Opportunity to glimpse the Great Dao, they naturally had to seize it tightly.

"It would not be an exaggeration to call it a blessed land or a pure holy heaven."

"Amitabha!"

To Councillor Simu's exclamation, Yi Xiu chanted a Buddhist name.

Afterward, the two agreed on the time to enter the Netherworld and each returned to their own cultivation dojos in this building.

Daoist Master Sumu took the central elevator to the 43rd floor; at the same time, a subsystem of the Ling Ming intelligent entity, the personal version, began to introduce the new changes regarding the cultivation dojos in the Guitian Array Domain Tower to him.

"Daoist Master Sumu, according to your status as a councillor of the Supreme Council of Blue Star Human Civilization, a standard Level 2 transcendent cultivation dojo with an area of 10,000 square meters, a height of 10 meters, and a life spirit primordial qi concentration of Level 2 has been equipped for you in the Guitian Array Domain Tower."

The intelligent entity immediately brought up the structural diagram of the 43rd floor.

As a ten-thousand-meter-tall building, the Guitian Array Domain Tower had only 99 floors, and the area and height of each floor were extremely exaggerated.

It could be seen that the 43rd floor was divided into 9 areas; besides the 10 planned cultivation dojos in each area, there were also numerous ecological zones of different sizes, providing for the survival of different Heaven and Earth Qi, spiritual objects, spiritual plants, and spiritual beasts.

Daoist Master Sumu saw that in the cultivation dojo of every area, there were scattered red zones.

Having undergone long-term data training and logical evolution, the intelligent entity already possessed extremely high intelligence and immediately explained the internal situation to him.

"These red zones indicate that councillors with ranked status have already moved in; you may not enter without permission, otherwise it will be regarded as an act of intrusion."

It then pointed to those large cultivation dojos.

"If the 10,000 square meter cultivation dojo area does not meet your needs, you can expand outward or apply for a higher concentration supply of life spirit primordial qi by consuming contribution points or precious resources."

"As for the transcendent ecology outside the cultivation dojo, it can be modified according to your needs. Of course, this is within a certain limit, and it requires special environments; additionally, you need to pay contribution points to hire corresponding transcendent ecological construction masters for modification."

After thinking for a while, Daoist Master Sumu understood the intention behind such a design.

"For all transcendent systems other than the martial arts system, if one wants to make significant progress in cultivation and acquire new knowledge, besides studying the classics and techniques of predecessors, the only way is through these transcendent ecologies that fit one's own imagery. If these naturally evolved images were missing, trying to perfect them relying on our individuals alone would likely be very difficult to complete even in a thousand years."

"I remember that in the True Person's 'On Imagery', it is said that the imagery practiced and pursued during the Qi Refining stage is actually what the great universe originally possessed. Just like the celestial phenomena of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, or various human activities—gazing at the starry sky, worshipping the sun, pavilions and towers, clear springs and flowing water—these evolve into primitive images of Heavenly River Water, Heavenly Fire, Earth on the Roof, and Spring Water."

"But after we reach Foundation Establishment, with the initial sprouting of transcendent laws, everything must rely on artificial, living things to promote evolution. We must further enrich, organize, and fuse the meanings represented by these images, and then advance to the level of law prototypes in the Purple Mansion stage; only then is there a possibility of further progress."

However, as soon as Daoist Master Sumu thought of the Lunar Yin Spirit Talisman emitting the imagery of a bright moon, which was enshrined on a high platform forged from countless spiritual dharma runes within his spiritual altar...

The bright moon imagery upon it was extremely pale, illuminating the entire spiritual altar as if it were the Netherworld.

And beneath the dharma altar runes, in the four directions of east, west, south, and north, were scenes evolved from four types of imagery: coffins, deity statues, yin wood, and caves.

At this moment, he couldn't help but sigh and scratch his head.

"How did my comprehension of the Moon Yin God-Slaying Blade technique end up evolving into this? It was originally intended to pursue great lethality against ghosts and spiritual entities, yet it has become this gloomy and eerie sight."

"Sigh, in the end, I still have to request guidance from the Lord of the Netherworld; I don't even know what it will turn into."

"Ding."

Accompanied by the elevator sound, the 43rd floor was finally reached, and Daoist Master Sumu followed the intelligent entity's guidance to the cultivation dojo assigned to him.

Entering the 10,000-square-meter cultivation dojo, a wave of gentle and lively life spirit primordial qi rushed towards him; even for a Daoist Priest Summoning Gods and Reporting to Heaven like him, absorbing it directly was beneficial to his own cultivation.

However, this was just the normal energy supply of the cultivation dojo; for a Daoist Priest Summoning Gods and Reporting to Heaven, absorbing pure spirit primordial qi was what provided the greatest benefit to him.

Although Daoist Master Sumu had not yet been able to realize the use of arrays to refine pure spirit primordial qi at the Foundation Establishment level, with gentle energy like life spirit primordial qi present, as long as he released his own restrained transcendent laws, he could naturally rely on law radiation to transform it into first-order pure spirit primordial qi.
