With Lin Yuan's current strength, he can easily perceive every detail hundreds or even thousands of miles away. This is just perception; if he were to openly unleash the Tai Chi domain without restraint, he could control tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of miles.

"How did they come?" Lin Yuan rubbed his chin. At this moment, they were two hundred miles away from the Cloud Mist Blessed Land.

Two streaks of light appeared, Lin Yuan's eldest brother and second sister. Over the years, Lin Yuan's eldest brother and second sister would visit him once every six months. It had not been even two months since their last visit.

"It seems that something has happened in the Sect," Lin Yuan speculated.

Before long, the two streaks of light arrived outside the Cloud Mist Blessed Land. Lin Yuan also promptly showed a hint of surprise and quickly opened the restriction formation of the blessed land to welcome his eldest brother and second sister.

Lin Yuan's eldest brother was named Jun Xiaoyao, with the title of 'Xiaoyaozi'. As for his second sister, she was Jun Zhilan, also known as 'Zhilan Xianzi', although other cultivators preferred to call her 'Shenxiao Xianzi'.

"Younger brother, the Sect Master has broken through to the Void Cave Realm, and the Sect is holding a celebration. We're here to take you there," explained his eldest brother, Jun Xiaoyao.

"The Void Cave Realm?" Lin Yuan immediately understood.

The last cultivation level of immortality (Void Refinement Realm / Ancient Sage) was divided into three stages: the Refinement Realm, the Void Cave Realm and the Etherealization Realm.

The Sect Master's breakthrough to the Void Cave Realm meant that his strength was among the ancient sages, making him a formidable figure. It should be noted that most of the ancient sages in history had mostly halted at the 'Void Cave' realm.

"Hehe, younger brother, Grandfather even mentioned you specifically. This celebration doesn't need to be publicized. Just a few of us from the Sect participating will suffice," said Jun Zhilan, unlike Jun Xiaoyao's formality, referring to the Sect Master as Grandfather in front of relatives.

"Alright," Lin Yuan nodded. "But, eldest brother and second sister, I'll go to the treasure trove first to pick a gift for Grandfather."

Even with close relatives, one couldn't go empty-handed.

"Sure," agreed his elder siblings, watching Lin Yuan depart.

While waiting, Jun Zhilan couldn't help but remark, "Younger brother has changed a lot over the years."

"Practitioners of the Body Cultivation lineage need to endure tremendous pain to progress. How could younger brother remain the same as before when he has reached the Body Cultivation Golden Core stage?" Jun Xiaoyao felt it was only natural.

Even he, faced with the pain of breaking through to the Golden Core stage of Body Cultivation, would feel his scalp tingle. Jun Wuji's achievements now placed him above most other Golden Core cultivators in terms of mentality.

As for why Jun Wuji had undergone such a significant transformation, Jun Xiaoyao wasn't surprised. Twenty years ago, Jun Wuji had been struck and had left the Daoist Immortal Mountain to come to the Cloud Mist Blessed Land. Having been shamed, he bravely embarked on the arduous path of Body Cultivation, achieving some success, which was not surprising.

In the treasure trove of the Cloud Mist Blessed Land, Lin Yuan entered and casually picked a treasure. For the Sect Master of the Daoist Immortal Sect, it didn't matter what gift Lin Yuan brought; what mattered was the thought behind it.

"Condense."

Standing still, Lin Yuan concealed all his martial-related breaths, hiding them deep within his body. This trip to the Daoist Immortal Sect required him to meet the Sect Master who had already entered the Void Cave Realm, so Lin Yuan naturally had to be fully prepared.

"Almost there," Lin Yuan nodded slightly. At this point, his breath had been completely suppressed, and even the strength of his body temporarily dropped to the level of a Golden Core cultivator. Not even a cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm would be able to detect anything.

The reason Lin Yuan could conceal his breath in this way was twofold. Firstly, Lin Yuan himself was also a Sixth Rank powerhouse, equivalent to the Void Refinement Stage. Secondly, Lin Yuan hailed from the main world and had seen various evolutionary paths. In terms of concealing breath alone, compared to the creatures of this world, he was akin to a heavyweight boxer facing a lightweight opponent.

"I'll leave the Yin Spirit behind."

After some consideration, Lin Yuan's mind flickered, and a phantom figure emerged from his body before disappearing into the treasure trove.

While the breath of the Yin Spirit was almost nonexistent, carrying it around still posed a risk. Moreover, leaving the Yin Spirit in the Cloud Mist Blessed Land was also a contingency plan for Lin Yuan. If something unexpected happened, with both Yin and Yang Spirits outside, Lin Yuan would have more means at his disposal and wouldn't truly 'die'.

With everything prepared, Lin Yuan approached his elder siblings with the gift in hand.

"Let's go," said Jun Zhilan, extending her right hand. A piece of cloud-patterned treasure unfolded in the air, turning into hundreds of zhang of auspicious clouds.

When Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Zhilan came, they used light speed because it was the fastest. However, they naturally couldn't use it on their return journey, especially with Lin Yuan by their side. Although a Golden Core cultivator had flying abilities, their speed was far inferior to these two experienced Nascent Soul cultivators.

So Jun Zhilan activated the treasure, carrying the three of them towards the Daoist Immortal Sect.

"Come up," Jun Xiaoyao stepped onto the auspicious cloud treasure, and Lin Yuan followed suit.

Half a day later, the Daoist Immortal Sect appeared in Lin Yuan's sight. Above the sea of clouds, immortal mountains stood tall like supporting pillars of the sky, majestic and grand.

"Daoist Immortal Mountain," Lin Yuan gazed at the distant immortal mountains. The Daoist Immortal Sect was established atop Daoist Immortal Mountain, which was the convergence point of the most significant spiritual veins in the Central Divine Continent. It was also a highly coveted sacred place for all cultivators.

The Central Divine Continent boasted seventy-two blessed caves and one hundred and eight fairylands, among other sacred sites for cultivation. These places were abundant in spiritual energy, offering incredible cultivation effects. However, compared to Daoist Immortal Mountain, even the sum of all these places paled in comparison.

It wasn't that the Daoist Immortal Sect didn't want to eradicate the ghost cultivators completely; it was simply impossible. Whenever the Sect Master of the Daoist Immortal Sect wielded the sect's town-sealing immortal treasure and went south to sweep through their territories, all the ghost cultivators would retreat into the Abyssal Ghost Palace, a place that even a formidable figure like a Void Refinement Ancient Sage couldn't find if they were hiding completely.

So, the Daoist Immortal Sect could only suppress and restrict the growth of the ghost cultivators to prevent major problems from arising.

"What about the Blood Demons in the north?" the Sect Master continued.

"Sect Master, sixty percent of the Blood God Seeds controlled by the Blood Demon Lord have been destroyed. They dare not leave the Blood Demon Sea now," another person stood up and reported.

"The Blood Demon Lord is fused with the Blood Demon Sea. Although he is nearly indestructible, he cannot leave the confines of the Blood Demon Sea," the Sect Master nodded.

The Blood Demon Lord was a very special existence. Even the successive Sect Masters of the Daoist Immortal Sect, wielding the town-sealing immortal treasure, couldn't completely kill him. As long as the Blood Demon Sea didn't dry up, the Blood Demon Lord would remain alive.

"And what about the Eastern Sea Islands?" the Sect Master inquired further.

"Sect Master," at this point, Mengting stood up and spoke, "the Eastern Sea Islands are a chaotic mix of various forces, highly resistant to external influences."

"However, over the years, I have painstakingly built up a faction there and taken control of the Black Veil Islands."

"With me around, the Eastern Sea Islands will remain in perpetual chaos," Mengting said confidently.

The Daoist Immortal Sect didn't directly suppress the Eastern Sea Islands like they did with the demonic, evil, and ghostly paths. The situation in the Eastern Sea Islands was extremely complex, with constant internal conflicts. The Daoist Immortal Sect only needed to ensure that no unified force emerged in the Eastern Sea Islands to maintain peace.

Therefore, Mengting secretly established his own faction there. Whenever there were signs of unification in the Eastern Sea Islands, he would intervene to stop it.

For Mengting, this faction was extremely important, as it provided him with various cultivation resources and support.

"Well done," the Sect Master nodded again.

"Black Veil Islands?" Lin Yuan, sitting beside Jun Dongjin, felt a slight movement in his heart.

Since he planned to use the Eastern Sea Islands as the starting point for spreading the path of martial arts evolution, Lin Yuan naturally had a considerable amount of research on the islands. The location of the Black Veil Islands was also roughly known to him.

However, Lin Yuan suddenly paused his thoughts.

The distance between the Cloud Mist Sanctuary and the Eastern Sea was extremely far.

However, his divine consciousness was not physical, and its flight speed was probably unmatched even by Void Refinement Ancient Sages.

After half a month of flying, Lin Yuan's divine consciousness finally arrived in the Eastern Sea region.

In fact, the Daoist Immortal Sect had a special teleportation array that could instantly reach the Eastern Sea region. However, Lin Yuan's divine consciousness intended to take a leisurely stroll along the way. After all, the spread of the path of martial arts evolution was a hundred-year plan, so there was no rush for now.

"Black Veil Islands?" Lin Yuan's divine consciousness and his main body shared the same consciousness.

Their memories were the same, and they could instantly communicate their knowledge and feelings.

So, when Lin Yuan heard that Mengting had established a faction on the Black Veil Islands in the Eastern Sea, his divine consciousness also instantly became aware of it.

"That should be the Black Veil Islands."

Lin Yuan's divine consciousness changed direction and flew towards the Black Veil Islands.

A moment later, the Black Veil Islands appeared before him.

"Twelve Transformation Stage cultivators, fifty-six Nascent Soul cultivators cultivators," Lin Yuan's divine consciousness clicked its tongue, then raised its right hand.

At that moment, the sun hanging high in the sky seemed to dim down.

The boundless power of the sun seemed to receive an order. Even though some of the solar power seemed reluctant, it obediently gathered towards Lin Yuan's right hand. In the end, countless rays of sunlight converged on Lin Yuan's right hand.

For a moment, it seemed like there were two suns in the sky.

Finally, Lin Yuan weighed the 'sun' in his right hand and found it acceptable. He then threw it towards the Black Veil Islands not far away.
