I Come to Teach You Cultivation

Beyond the Three Realms, above the River of Time.

"From today on, let’s call this place ’Outer Heaven’!"

Under the gaze of countless Pathfinders, Li Boyang merely stepped lightly into the world within the [Map of Mountains and Rivers].

This new world, opened by "one stroke of creation", was originally only supposed to exist briefly.

However, when Li Boyang raised the [Creation Jade Disc], actively guiding thousands of timelines to converge in this Outer Heaven.

All the Pathfinders felt an inexplicable pull—a pull that wasn’t coercive but more like an invitation.

Boom!

The edges of Outer Heaven were still collapsing.

Yet the region at the center of the world became exceptionally stable.

In this central area, the concepts of time and space ceased to exist, replaced by an intricate force of cause and effect.

No matter when or how the Pathfinders arrived at this Outer Heaven.

Li Boyang remained there always, as if he were an eternal concept, unmoved by anyone’s will.

So, just as the Pathfinders contemplated what the Tao Ancestor intended to do.

Li Boyang suddenly waved his hand again, and the [Creation Jade Disc] fell to the ground, transforming into a colossal palace complex.

Boom!

It was like a mountain crashing upon the Earth Vein, as if the heavens and earth were truly collapsing.

The colossal palace complex wasn’t an ancient structure, but a unique confluence of past, present, and future styles.

It had primitive caves as well as wooden towers...

There were palaces encrusted with carved jade and ivory, as well as iron-cast warships...

Everywhere the eye could reach, it seemed any era or existence could find its sense of belonging in this vast palace complex.

Even more astonishing was, when Li Boyang stepped out once more, in the center of this grand palace complex, a high peak suddenly rose.

It was a replica of Feilai Peak in Yunmeng Marsh.

Even the Mountain God Temple on the mountain was recreated one-to-one.

Yet, looking at the deity enshrined in that Mountain God Temple, the Pathfinders couldn’t help but wonder—what exactly was the relationship between the Tao Ancestor and the Queen Mother of the West?

But before the Pathfinders could think further, Li Boyang had already reached the summit of Feilai Peak.

Rumble...

Standing where an altar should have been placed.

Li Boyang stomped, and a giant stele emerged towering from the mountain.

This stele stood tall and magnificent, perfectly natural, with twelve complete talismans carved around it.

Anyone who saw these talismans for the first time would get deeply engrossed, understanding their mysteries, until their energy was spent or they reached the limits of their talent.

One must admit, the moment they saw this stele, those Pathfinders from various time and space were moved.

For these Pathfinders, who stood at the pinnacle of their respective eras, their existing knowledge had almost reached the peak of what they could grasp.

With the twelve talismans personally passed down by the Tao Ancestor, and even the Tao Ancestor’s insights among them.

They could advance further from where they stood.

But precisely for this reason, the Pathfinders wondered even more—what did the Tao Ancestor intend to do?

"Hoo!"

Just as the Pathfinders were wondering.

Li Boyang exhaled a breath of clear Qi towards that giant stele.

In an instant, the myriad-changing twelve talismans merged together, inscribing three large characters on the stele—Purple Cloud Palace.

The three words "Purple Cloud Palace" transcended textual and linguistic barriers.

Even an ant could clearly understand its meaning upon seeing these words.

"Purple" signifies the Ziwei Star, positioned at the center of the stars, highlighting the status of this palace.

"Cloud" for the Nine Heavens, the heaven beyond heavens, also implying the status of this palace.

Thus, with the appearance of "Purple Cloud Palace", all the Pathfinders fell silent unanimously.

Up until this moment, the Pathfinders had mostly guessed the Tao Ancestor’s intention.

This Outer Heaven was not merely created temporarily for protecting the Queen Mother of the West’s pathfinding.

From the Tao Ancestor’s demeanor, it seemed he intended to use this place as a Daoist field to preach.

As for the Tao Ancestor’s audience?

After a mutual glance among the Pathfinders, they all became clear.

"Master, your disciple is a step late."

Just as the Pathfinders were hesitating, a figure had already crossed time and space into the Purple Cloud Palace.

It was a youth clad in Daoist robes, with a handsome face.

In Li Boyang’s eyes, this youth was his future disciple—Li Xudou.

But in the eyes of many Pathfinders, this handsome youth had another more formidable title—the Primordial Celestial King.

Though the current Primordial Celestial King hadn’t yet spanned his existence across past and present.

His demonstrated combat power and potential had already surpassed the vast majority of Pathfinders.

The Pathfinders had initially wondered where this newly emerged Primordial Celestial King hailed from or what deity he was.

Now it seemed, he was actually a direct disciple of the Tao Ancestor?

No wonder he was so divinely capable, with elusive roots, leaving just a name in most timelines.

"This is a convergence of causes and effects, without a notion of early or late."

With a light laugh, glancing at Li Xudou, Li Boyang naturally flew to the top of the stele and sat down.

"In this Outer Heaven beyond the River of Time, normal temporal sequences and space are meaningless."

"Only causality and fate determine when you arrive here..."

"Just as it is fated they will arrive here a step later than you."

In the brief exchange between master and apprentice, some brave Pathfinders had already appeared in other parts of the Purple Cloud Palace.

Following the era they belonged to, their palace locations also had unique characteristics.

For instance, Zhuang Zhou appeared within a giant Kun Roc, looking around bewilderedly.

The giant Kun Roc wasn’t a real Kun Roc, but a palace in the form of a Kun Roc.

Realizing that others couldn’t see through his real form.

Zhuang Zhou simply manipulated the palace to transform into a Taoist, then bowed towards the direction of Feilai Peak.

"My name is Kun Roc, I’ve seen the Tao Ancestor, I’ve seen Senior Brother."

Although it was long known that Zhuang Zhou enjoyed playing such role-playing games.

But witnessing this scene, Li Xudou still involuntarily fell silent.

It could only be said, though the Mountain God Grandmother was often unreliable.

Yet, when it came to these great deities with various quirks, her taunts were always precise and sharp.

At the very least, Li Xudou himself couldn’t engage in such behavior of pretending to be someone else in front of acquaintances and shamelessly calling out random titles.

"Tsk tsk tsk, another fellow who doesn’t dare show his true face..."

In the distance, amidst the rising Black Palace on a Blood Lotus, a typical Asura held twin swords in black and red, sneering disdainfully at Zhuang Zhou’s disguise.

"I am Nether River, I’ve seen the Tao Ancestor!"
