I'll just quietly watch you show off.
Lin Yi didn't take it to heart and continued, "Back then, I thought that if I had the chance, I would also snatch ten or eight of his holy maidens and then build a huge crystal palace."
"I heard that your Supreme Dao's previous generation's Holy Maiden, Meng Bingyun, had her Dao Heart broken by Marquis Wu Wen, Hong Xuanji, and then she was taken as his concubine and even bore him a son. It seems that this Hong Xuanji was definitely the protagonist of the previous generation."
Su Muyun said calmly, "The matter of Senior Sister Bingyun will be settled by the Sect Leader himself one day."
"But I heard that in the battle at Dachan Temple, Meng Shenji's immortal body was destroyed by the current Emperor Qian and Hong Xuanji. I wonder if he has recovered his cultivation now?"
Su Mule stalled for time, saying, "The sect leader's actions are unfathomable, like the will of Heaven, how could I possibly know them?"
After the two chatted for a few more minutes, strands of azure light descended from the sky. Within the light, an extremely heavy magical artifact emerged. This artifact was a semi-circular object, surrounded by wisps of cloud, dark at the top and yellow at the bottom, round at the top and square at the bottom.
Heaven is black, earth is yellow; heaven is round, earth is square.
With just a glance, one can discern the power of this magical artifact and the profound meaning it represents.
Buzzing, buzzing.
The magical artifact emitted a buzzing sound, as if it were speaking or chanting. With a slight movement, it suddenly melted into the void, seemingly merging with the entire universe.
At the same time, Su Mu also disappeared completely, leaving only his heavy voice echoing.
"Heaven is black, earth is yellow; heaven is round, earth is square; the land of living beings; time and space; the other shore has no shore; the place without shore is the other shore!"
Boom!
A thick beam of light, spanning a hundred miles in radius, shot down fiercely from the sky, its center point being Lin Yi standing below.
"This is the supreme treasure of the Supreme Dao, the king of artifacts ranked eighth, the power of the Eternal Kingdom."
A strong sense of alarm rose in Lin Yi's heart. Just as his thoughts were racing, the light fell, and the world spun around, the stars shifted, and the entire world transformed into something completely different.
Su Mu suddenly appeared from the void. With a wave of her jade hand, she fiercely clenched her five fingers, and five beams of light shot out from her hand. Then, the entire space completely collapsed, collapsed, and collapsed again...
The phantom of the Thirty-Three Heavens appeared around Lin Yi, and a Limitless Dao Wheel, which seemed to be the origin of the entire world, hung high behind his head.
Although the power of the spatial collapse was immense, as the Limitless Dao Wheel rotated, the Five Primordial Elements were generated, and the illusory images of the Thirty-Three Heavens shattered one after another.
Birth and death alternate, like a dream, an illusion, a bubble.
Although the Eternal Kingdom is powerful, it's like an old saying in the martial arts world: some people may have a divine sword in hand, but they can't become the god of swords.
Su Mu was still unable to unleash the full power of the Eternal Kingdom, the king of artifacts.
After a long stalemate, Su Mu finally chose to give up.
The leader of the Supreme Dao, Meng Shenji, is preparing to undergo his eighth tribulation and conserving his energy. He will not make a move casually. Lin Yi seized this opportunity to attack Su Mu.
Unfortunately, it ultimately failed.
After Su Mu left, Lin Yi traveled through the void and soon appeared on a small hill outside Yujing City.
The surrounding area was filled with withered vines and old trees. The snow had not completely melted, and while the scenery wasn't exactly picturesque, it still had its own unique charm.
He came to a stream that had not yet frozen over, and as he watched the water flowing gently, his restless mind gradually calmed down.
A clear stream cleanses the mind; the way of nature prevails.
Success isn't always a good thing. On the contrary, failure can help a person calm down, reflect, and learn from their mistakes.
Lin Yifu felt a sudden inspiration and sat down on a rock by the stream. He then took off his shoes and soaked his feet in the stream.
The stream water was icy cold, but it had no effect on Lin Yi.
"The human spirit naturally desires tranquility, but the mind disturbs it; the human heart naturally desires stillness, but desires pull it away. If one can constantly dispel desires, the heart will naturally be still; if one can purify the heart, the spirit will naturally be clear..."
The text of the Qingjing Jing (Classic of Purity and Tranquility) flowed through Lin Yi's heart like the water in a stream.
As the scriptures say, if one can always be pure and tranquil, then all things in heaven and earth will return to their rightful place.
Rivers, lakes, and seas do not seek fish, turtles, or dragons; yet fish, turtles, and dragons naturally come to them. If a person can be pure, empty, and have few desires, and act without attachment to the ultimate Way, then the ultimate Way will naturally return to them. If one can simply guard the Great Harmony and Primordial Qi, embody the Way and unite with truth, all things will return to them.
He didn't know how much time had passed—whether it was a day, a month, or a year—when Lin Yi's mind returned from the vast emptiness, and a clap of thunder reached his ears.
As the rumbling thunder rolled, seemingly shaking the entire capital city, the spring thunder was followed by a gentle spring rain that nourished the parched earth after winter, bringing a moist atmosphere.
The spring thunder not only awakens all the animals that have been hibernating since winter, but also awakens the vitality hidden in the earth during the cold winter.
As the spring thunder rumbled, the vitality of life within the earth slowly began to emerge.
Standing in the spring rain, Lin Yi fully enjoyed the fresh, spring-like atmosphere.

The thunder in the sky contains the power of destruction and creation, while the earth beneath our feet also encompasses the cycle of life and death.
Lin Yi walked down the hill. Not far from the hill, there was a small village. A light rain was falling, and several naughty children were running around in the rain, leaving behind bursts of joyful laughter.
"Living is the most important thing. And what we call eternity is simply living forever."
Lin Yi walked through the village, his figure gradually disappearing into the rain.
