441: Its remaining power governs the four seas, and all methods ascend to the heavens.

That black heavenly chasm spanning a hundred thousand miles did not heal with the passage of time.

It was like an eternal scar, branded upon the sky of the Eastern Region.

The terrifying Sword Intent permeating from it lingered on, the sword's hum never ceasing, as if silently recounting the horror of that day.

As long as a Cultivator was within the range of the Taiyi Mountain Range, they only needed to look up to see that crack that seemed to divide heaven and earth.

Every time they saw it, the fear originating from the depths of their Divine Soul on that day would surface in their hearts once more.

"Those who cross the line, die."

Four simple words had turned into a sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of all top-tier forces.

No one dared to harbor even the slightest bit of greed for the vast territory left behind by the Taiyi Sword Sect.

Forces like the Ziyang Holy Land and the Tianxuan Divine Dynasty, who had previously come together in an aggressive manner...

Immediately issued the strictest death orders after fleeing back to their Sects.

The range of activity for all Disciples must not cross the heavenly chasm by even a fraction.

If they encountered Cultivators from the Wanfa Immortal Sect, they must pay respects as a Disciple and keep a respectful distance.

For those who disobeyed, there was no need for that person to take action; the Sect would personally carry out the execution, abolish their Cultivation, and expel them from the mountain gate.

For a time, the entire Eastern Region fell into a strange tranquility.

The former hegemon, the Taiyi Sword Sect, had vanished into thin air, and the new Dominator reigned over the Eastern Region with a powerful posture that no one could understand... Taiyi Mountain Range, Wanfa Immortal Sect Branch.

As Shen Yuanmo's figure slowly descended from above the Enlightenment Cliff.

Myriad Laws Daoist, Qing Xuzi, and Daoist Xinghe had already led all the higher-ups of the Wanfa Immortal Sect to wait below for a long time.

There was no clamor, no cheering.

Every face bore a pious awe that bordered on a pilgrimage.

"Welcome, Elder Shen!"

Led by the Hedao Realm Grand Elder, Daoist Xinghe, hundreds of Wanfa Immortal Sect higher-ups, from Myriad Laws Daoist down to the Void Return Elders.

All performed a grand salute to Shen Yuanmo at the same time.

This was the highest etiquette recorded in the Wanfa Immortal Sect's Legacy scriptures.

It was only used when welcoming the founding Ancestral Master or when the Sect faced a catastrophe and prayed for the ancestors to manifest.

Now, they willingly used it on Shen Yuanmo.

Myriad Laws Daoist, Qing Xuzi, and Daoist Xinghe were filled with a myriad of emotions.

They had personally witnessed the entire process of Shen Yuanmo going from first showing his brilliance to splitting the sky with a single sword and suppressing the entire Eastern Region.

That kind of shock and subversion had completely reshaped their Dao Heart.

In their eyes, Shen Yuanmo was no longer just some Guest Elder.

Rather, he was like a True Immortal walking the earth, a supreme expert leading the Wanfa Immortal Sect toward an unprecedented glory.

"No need for such formalities, rise."

Shen Yuanmo's voice remained calm as his gaze swept over everyone.

Only then did everyone dare to slowly stand up, but they still kept their heads bowed, not daring to meet his eyes.

Shen Yuanmo didn't care for these formalities; he looked at Daoist Xinghe and got straight to the point.

"The matter here is settled, and the Eastern Region is stable. I plan to set off for the Central Continent Divine Land."

These words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing everyone's wild joy.

"What?"

Daoist Xinghe looked up abruptly, the color draining from his face as he blurted out, "Elder Shen, you're leaving?"

Myriad Laws Daoist and Qing Xuzi also felt their hearts tremble, their faces showing panic.

Was this a joke?

Right now, the Wanfa Immortal Sect seemed to have boundless glory, dominating the Eastern Region alone.

But everyone knew that this glory and deterrent power were entirely tied to Shen Yuanmo alone.

The territory of the Taiyi Sword Sect was so vast and its resources so abundant that this piece of fat was enough to drive any force crazy.

The various major forces were afraid now, but once the news of Shen Yuanmo's departure spread, those suppressed greeds would definitely strike back in an instant.

At that time, how could they, a single Wanfa Immortal Sect, hold on to such a massive fortune?

They would probably be torn to shreds by the various powerhouses of the Eastern Region attacking together the very next day.

"Elder Shen, you absolutely must not!"

Daoist Xinghe was so anxious his voice changed as he took a step forward, almost pleading.

"Currently, our Sect's Foundation is unstable, and we rely entirely on your deterrence. If you leave, those wolves and tigers will surely devour us whole!"

"The Wanfa Immortal Sect will be in peril!"

Seeing his extremely anxious state, Shen Yuanmo's expression remained unchanged as he said indifferently.

"No matter."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over all the higher-ups of the Wanfa Immortal Sect present.

"I will stay for one more month."

"Within a month, I will forge a truly eternal Foundation for you."

As soon as these words were spoken, Daoist Xinghe was stunned, and Myriad Laws Daoist was also stunned.

Everyone was stunned.

Forging a truly eternal Foundation within a month?

What arrogant and soul-stirring words these were.

Even the Mahayana Ancestor of the Taiyi Sword Sect back then, True Man Taiyi, probably wouldn't have dared to say such a thing.

But coming from Shen Yuanmo's mouth, it carried a natural sense of conviction.

Before everyone could recover from their shock, Shen Yuanmo's voice rang out again.

"All Elders above the Void Return Realm, follow me to the Enlightenment Cliff."

As his voice fell, he turned and took a step, his figure disappearing from the spot.

Daoist Xinghe and the others looked at each other, suppressing the shock in their hearts, not daring to delay in the slightest.

They quickly led dozens of Void Return Elders, turning into streaks of light to follow closely behind.

On the Enlightenment Cliff, clouds and mist swirled.

Shen Yuanmo stood with his hands behind his back, looking at these dozens of Elders who represented the highest combat power of the Wanfa Immortal Sect.

Insight into Origin, activate!

In an instant, the world before him turned into a scroll composed of countless Law lines and energy torrents.

These Elders no longer had any secrets in his eyes.

The Cultivation Techniques they practiced, the direction of their Great Dao, the hidden injuries in their bodies, the crux of their Bottlenecks... everything was presented in his Sea of Consciousness in the most direct and essential way.

"The Cultivation Technique is incomplete, you took a wrong turn, leading to mixed Laws; unable to Breakthrough for three hundred years."

"Foundation is unstable, forced a realm Breakthrough, the Primordial Spirit has cracks; no hope of reaching the Hedao Realm in this life."

"The Dao being practiced contradicts your own attributes; the more diligent you are, the further you are from the Dao..."

One fatal flaw after another was seen through by Shen Yuanmo at a glance.

In his view, these Void Returning Great Experts, who were enough to be called patriarchs in the outside world, had cultivation paths that could be described as full of holes.

The Elders present felt their whole bodies tremble as Shen Yuanmo's gaze swept over them.

It was as if under that one look, everything from their Physical Body to their Divine Soul had been seen through, leaving not a single secret.

Just as they were trembling with fear, Shen Yuanmo moved.

He held his fingers like a sword and flicked them repeatedly toward the void.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Dozens of Chaos light spots, more brilliant than the stars, shot out from his fingertips.

Like sparks filling the sky, they ignored the distance of space and entered the forehead of every Elder present with unerring precision.

"Ah!"

A Middle Stage Void Returning Elder's body trembled violently as he let out a cry of surprise.

The others also had varying expressions, clutching their foreheads in horror.

They only felt a vast and boundless torrent of information, so profound it was beyond words, rushing into their Sea of Consciousness.

That information was precisely the Cultivation Technique they practiced.

No, that's not right!

That was not their original Cultivation Technique, but a brand new one that had undergone Perfect Deduction, filling in all the flaws and pointing out all future paths!

"My 'Blue Sea Tide Manual'... so this is how the path ahead is supposed to go! I was wrong, I was completely wrong!"

"The Bottleneck that has troubled me for eight hundred years... just like that... it's broken?"

"Heavens! This... this is simply the grace of being reborn!"

One by one, the Elders went from initial horror to realization, and finally to wild joy, their expressions changing in a most spectacular fashion.

Many were so excited that their whole bodies trembled and tears streamed down their faces.

They sat cross-legged on the spot, the magic power in their bodies starting to surge uncontrollably.

The cultivation barriers that had troubled them for thousands of years were easily punctured like a thin layer of paper at this moment.

Daoist Xinghe's body shook violently, his eyes widening.

The light spot that entered his forehead contained the most massive amount of information.

It was not just the cultivation method for the Hedao Realm, but a supreme Dao path that surpassed Hedao and faintly pointed toward the Mahayana Realm!

That path he had been bitterly searching for for tens of thousands of years, yet couldn't even catch a glimpse of.

At this moment, it was displayed so clearly and completely before him.

It was like a great path to heaven, stretching from beneath his feet directly toward that unreachable realm of immortals and gods.

Shock!

It was like thunder piercing his brain, making his Divine Soul tremble violently.

He had previously thought Shen Yuanmo's strength lay in his combat power.

Now he realized how ridiculously wrong he had been.

Compared to this miracle of deriving ten thousand Laws with a flick of a finger and creating a Dao path out of thin air.

Breaking a formation with one sword or suppressing the Eastern Region seemed so insignificant.

Daoist Xinghe could no longer suppress the excitement and awe in his heart as he bowed deeply to Shen Yuanmo's back.

"Elder Shen... No! Senior!"

"For this grace of rebirth, the Wanfa Immortal Sect, from this old man down to the newest Disciple, will never dare to forget it for all eternity!"

As he knelt, the Elders behind him, who had just recovered from the wild joy of their Breakthrough, also came to their senses.

They looked at that green-robed back that was still as calm as a breeze, and there was nothing else in their eyes but the purest faith and fanaticism.

Dozens of Void Returning Great Experts all followed Daoist Xinghe's example and bowed deeply.

On this day.

Shen Yuanmo flicked his fingers repeatedly on the Enlightenment Cliff.

Deriving ten thousand Laws and pointing out the Dao path for dozens of Wanfa Immortal Sect higher-ups.

This act was honored by future generations of Wanfa Immortal Sect Disciples as: Deriving Ten Thousand Laws with a Flick of a Finger, Creating the Heavenly Ladder to Sainthood!
