The formation is complete; proceed to the Spirit Realm.

On the way back to the Eastern Region, he could also deduce the Formation. Once the deduction was complete, Ye Qing would likely leave the Tianxuan Continent directly.

Therefore, he would return to the Eastern Region first; there were some things he needed to settle.

Now that the Taixuan Sword Mansion had been established, it was the perfect time to go back and pick up people... Eastern Region, Taiyi Sect.

When Ye Qing's figure appeared before the Sect Gate, the entire Sect was in an uproar!

"Sect Master Ye is back!"

"The stabilizing force of our Eastern Region has returned!"

Sect Master Lu Changhe and Grand Elder Venerable Wu Shuang personally came out to welcome him.

Looking at the young man before them whose Aura was unfathomable.

Venerable Wu Shuang was also quite excited in his heart.

Inside the main hall.

Ye Qing briefly explained what had happened in the Central Region, the establishment of the Taixuan Sword Mansion, and his plan to bring the Sect Disciples there.

Everyone was dumbfounded, shocked into silence for a long time.

"Es... established a top-tier power?"

"And even wiped out the Western Heaven Prefecture?"

This was like listening to a fairy tale!

Afterward.

Ye Qing took out the top-tier Spirit Pills he had looted from the Western Heaven Prefecture's vault.

He handed them to Elder Liu Xundao.

This Elder had once been a peerless Prodigy in the path of techniques, but he had suffered emotional trauma that damaged his Foundation.

Because of this, his cultivation had long been unable to Breakthrough.

But now.

Ye Qing had brought him light!

"Elder, this is the [Heaven-Mending Pill]; it can heal the Foundation Dao injury you sustained years ago."

Additionally.

"Grand Elder, your Lifespan is running low, isn't it? This is the [Longevity Fruit]. Not only can it replenish your Origin Qi, but it can also help you Breakthrough your Bottleneck!"

With Ye Qing's help.

Liu Xundao's long-standing hidden ailments were cured, and his cultivation advanced greatly.

As for Venerable Wu Shuang, he directly broke through the shackles of his Lifespan, looking radiant.

He seemed to have aged backward by several hundred years!

"Good, good, good!"

Venerable Wu Shuang held Ye Qing's hand, filled with emotion.

He looked at Ye Qing, his eyes full of disbelief:

"When you left the Taiyi Sect for the Central Region, you were only at the Nascent Soul Realm..."

"How long has it been since then?"

"The Aura on your body... is simply unfathomable, like a vast ocean!"

"What Realm have you reached?"

Venerable Wu Shuang couldn't help but ask, tentatively guessing:

"Could it be... Void Returning?"

"And not just an ordinary Void Returning!"

"To be able to establish the Taixuan Sword Mansion and suppress all the major figures... you must already be invincible in the Central Region, having reached the Void Returning Peak?"

Void Returning Peak?

Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, Void Returning—Ye Qing's cultivation progress was actually this fast!

This is what a peerless Prodigy is!

They could only look up at Ye Qing's back!

Facing everyone's shock and speculation.

Ye Qing just smiled and didn't offer much explanation.

"Void Returning Peak?"

He thought to himself:

"Naturally, I am not at the Void Returning Peak Realm."

"But..."

"The so-called Void Returning Peak, to me now..."

"Is nothing much."

Inside the Taiyi Sect, there was laughter and joy.

After resolving the issues for the Elder and Grand Elder, Ye Qing went straight to a quiet courtyard.

Here lived one of the Elders he respected—Liu Ruyan.

"Aunt Liu."

Ye Qing stood outside the door and called out softly.

"Qing'er?"

A voice of pleasant surprise came from inside.

Then the door opened, and a graceful, still-charming middle-aged woman walked out quickly.

Seeing Ye Qing, Liu Ruyan's eyes were filled with maternal love and relief.

She looked him up and down:

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

"You've lost some weight; you must have suffered a lot out there, right?"

Ye Qing felt a warmth in his heart and shook his head.

He smiled and said:

"No."

Indeed not. Ye Qing thought back carefully; it seemed he really hadn't suffered much.

Usually, it was others who suffered.

"Aunt Liu, I brought you some gifts this time."

Saying that, Ye Qing took out an exquisite Storage Pouch.

He gently placed it in Liu Ruyan's hand.

Inside were top-tier Medicinal Pills and Magic Treasures carefully selected from the Western Heaven Prefecture's vault, most suited for Liu Ruyan's Physique.

As well as enough resources for her to Cultivate.

"This... this is too precious."

Liu Ruyan's Divine Sense swept over it, and she was immediately startled, wanting to decline.

"Aunt Liu, please accept it."

Ye Qing held her hand and said seriously:

"If not for your care back then, how could Ye Qing be where he is today?"

"Furthermore..."

Ye Qing looked at Liu Ruyan.

He said solemnly:

"I've come back this time to take everyone away."

"I've established a new Sect in the Central Region called the 'Taixuan Sword Mansion'."

"The resources there are more abundant, and the Spiritual Qi is denser; it's more suitable for everyone to Cultivate."

"In the future, Aunt Liu, you will Cultivate at the Taixuan Sword Mansion!"

Ye Qing planned to take Liu Xundao, Lu Changhe, Venerable Wu Shuang, and the other high-ranking members of the Taiyi Sect.

Along with some of the Taiyi Sect's outstanding Disciples.

Transfer them all to the Taixuan Sword Mansion... A few days later.

A massive fleet of flying ships left the Eastern Region in a grand manner.

The elites of the Taiyi Sect all came out to follow Ye Qing to the Central Region.

Upon arriving at the Taixuan Sword Mansion, everyone was completely shocked by the grand sight before them.

This was the former top-tier power, the Western Heaven Prefecture!

Now, it had become their territory!

Look at this Spiritual Qi, look at these mountain ranges, look at this Aura... this is a true cultivation treasure land!

After settling everyone in.

Ye Qing did not stay idle.

In the most core Forbidden Ground of the Taixuan Sword Mansion, he left behind three rank-seven Peak Dao Artifacts as the Sect's Foundation.

They were the taiyi five elements formation diagram, the mysterious tortoise heart shield, and the [Water-Fire Golden Dipper]!

With these three Dao Artifacts present, even if he wasn't there, the Taixuan Sword Mansion would be more than capable of protecting itself.

It could even suppress any incoming enemies.

Having finished all this.

Ye Qing could finally begin his secluded meditation without any distractions.

He went to the incomplete Boundary Astral Path Grand Formation deep underground.

Sitting cross-legged, he devoted his entire mind to it.

In his mind, countless Formation patterns flickered, deduced, and reorganized like stars.

Relying on his extraordinary Comprehension Ability and deep understanding of the Dao of Formations.

Based on the partial Formation diagram, Ye Qing continuously repaired and perfected it.

Time passed.

Before he knew it.

"Buzz!"

In the underground palace, a dazzling light suddenly lit up.

Ye Qing snapped his eyes open.

A confident smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

"It's done!"

Before him.

That teleportation Formation, which was originally incomplete and devoid of life, was now completely renewed!

Countless complex Formation patterns were perfectly connected, flowing with faint spatial fluctuations.

"The missing parts have all been completed!"

"Now..."

"The Boundary Star Path Formation diagram is complete!"

...Afterward.

Ye Qing sent out a message, inviting the leaders of the top-tier powers like Cang Yuanzi, the Netherworld Sect Master, and the Burning Emperor Empress to witness the ceremony.

Although everyone who received the news already knew Ye Qing was going to repair the Formation.

And believed that Ye Qing could fix it.

At this moment, they were still dumbstruck with shock.

"How long has it been?"

"All things considered, it hasn't even been a month, right?"

"It's... fixed already?"

They had originally estimated that given the degree of incompleteness and complexity of that Formation.

No matter how much of a Genius Ye Qing was, it would take at least decades or even a century of slow grinding.

But the result?

Less than half a month!

"What is a heaven-sent talent?"

Cang Yuanzi was filled with emotion:

"This is a heaven-sent talent!"

The Netherworld Sect Master sighed:

"Although I'm not that old, I always feel like an old fogey; I've really lived all these years in vain."

The Empress's beautiful eyes flickered, her red lips slightly parted, and her gaze seemed somewhat dazed.

She stood there momentarily stunned.

However, although everyone was shocked, they were not slow to act.

They all rushed to the Taixuan Sword Mansion at the first opportunity.

Afterward.

With Ye Qing's permission, they watched the entire process of Ye Qing setting up and activating the Boundary Star Path.

For them, this was a rare learning opportunity.

It provided valuable experience for when they would set up their own Boundary Star Paths to head to the Spirit Realm in the future.

Finally.

After consuming a mountain-like amount of Spirit Stones and various precious Materials.

"Rumble—!!!"

As the final core Spirit Crystal was embedded into the Formation Eye.

The entire grand Formation let out a deafening roar!

As Ye Qing's magic power was injected into it, a dazzling pillar of light soared into the sky, directly tearing through the Void Realm.

It constructed a starlight passage leading to an unknown shore!

The Boundary Star Path was open!

..."Everyone."

"Until we meet again!"

Ye Qing stood in the center of the teleportation Formation, followed by the equally excited Lin Xueer, Su Chan, Kylin Little Treasure, and Mu Mu.

He cupped his hands toward Cang Yuanzi and the others outside the Formation to bid farewell.

"Young Friend Ye, take care!"

"The Spirit Realm is dangerous; be careful in everything!"

"We will look for you in the Spirit Realm in the future. At that time, we hope you won't forget us!"

Everyone returned the gesture, their eyes full of blessings and anticipation.

"Let's go!"

Ye Qing nodded to everyone and then waved his hand.

The teleportation Formation's light intensified, instantly engulfing the five figures.

The next moment.

The light dissipated.

The five figures completely disappeared from the Central Region, embarking on their journey to the Spirit Realm.

Looking at the empty teleportation Formation.

Cang Yuanzi and the others were also filled with emotion.

"They're gone..."

"The Central Region will likely be lonely for a while."

"But..."

Cang Yuanzi stroked his beard and smiled, his eyes gleaming:

"With Ye Qing's Prodigy-like nature and his habit of never suffering a loss..."

"Even if he goes to that legendary Spirit Realm..."

"He will likely be able to stir up an earth-shaking storm!"

"It's truly something to look forward to..."

"I wonder what level he will have grown to when we meet again?"

...Meanwhile.

Within the endless Void Realm.

Inside a magnificent passage composed of countless flowing lights, Ye Qing and his four Disciples were in a strange state of teleportation.

Although they were standing still, they could clearly feel it.

The surrounding space was flying backward at a terrifying speed exceeding the speed of light.

Their bodies were also being continuously pushed forward by an invisible force.

"Wow! So beautiful!"

"Revered Master, look! Is that another world?"

On the walls of the passage on both sides, fuzzy images would occasionally appear, flashing by.

Those were other Mortal Realm planes.

The Disciples watched without blinking, clicking their tongues in wonder.

Ye Qing remained calm, his Divine Sense constantly alert to his surroundings.

At the same time, he felt some admiration in his heart.

This Boundary Star Path—whoever researched it was indeed extraordinary!

After some time.

"Are we there?"

Ye Qing's gaze sharpened.

In the far distance ahead of the teleportation passage, a huge white vortex vaguely appeared, emitting extremely dense Spiritual Qi fluctuations.

Clearly.

Passing through that white vortex meant arriving at the Spirit Realm!

"We're finally almost there!"

At this moment, everyone's heart was filled with anticipation and excitement.

However.

As the saying goes, "seeing the mountain kills the horse."

Although they could already see the white vortex, there seemed to be quite a distance to it.

It was estimated that the teleportation might continue for another half a day.

Ye Qing and the others waited patiently.

After a while.

Lin Xueer, who had been looking around, suddenly narrowed her beautiful eyes and pointed to the other side of the white vortex, crying out in surprise:

"Revered Master! Look over there!"

"There... seems to be another Boundary Star Path?"

Everyone looked in the direction she was pointing.

Sure enough.

On the other side of that massive white vortex.

Another shimmering passage was vaguely visible, also connecting to this vortex and converging toward the same destination.

"Eh?"

"It really is!"

Su Chan was somewhat surprised:

"Could it be other Cultivators opening a Boundary Star Path from another Mortal Realm to head to the Spirit Realm, and we just happened to be traveling together?"

"Woof!"

Kylin Little Treasure took a look and said with certainty:

"It's more than just traveling together."

"These two Boundary Star Paths connect to the same entrance vortex."

"I reckon the other party's landing point in the Spirit Realm... is very likely in the same Great Domain as ours, though the specific landing spots might differ slightly!"

Hearing this, Su Chan nodded in realization:

"That's quite a coincidence and a stroke of fate."

"I wonder which world the other party comes from?"

...Meanwhile.

Within that Boundary Star Path.

There was only a lone young Cultivator wearing a star-patterned robe.

He was sitting cross-legged on a large compass Magic Treasure, teleporting leisurely.

This person had a handsome face, but his brow betrayed a thick sense of arrogance and gloominess.

At this moment.

He also sensed movement nearby and glanced over casually.

"Hmm?"

He also noticed the group on Ye Qing's side.

Originally, he had only glanced indifferently and didn't care much.

After all, there were many Mortal Realms; having fellow travelers, while coincidental, was normal.

But.

When his gaze swept over the stunningly beautiful Lin Xueer and Su Chan, each with their own unique charm, next to Ye Qing.

His eyes... instantly narrowed!

A glint flashed in his eyes.

"Interesting..."

"I'm all alone, yet you're surrounded by beauties on both sides, with two stunning women as companions!"

"It really makes me feel quite displeased!"

Afterward.

He gave a few cold laughs and extended his fingers, quickly performing a calculation.

"Let's check the position and fluctuations of this Boundary Star Path..."

"Hmm?"

Then he raised an eyebrow, finding that he didn't recognize the world coordinates represented by Ye Qing's Boundary Star Path.

"Unfamiliar coordinates?"

"And the fluctuations are so ancient..."

A cold smile curled on the young Cultivator's lips:

"This means that this Boundary Star Path may not have been used for a long time, and it might even be an ancient passage that was only recently repaired."

"Heh."

"It seems to be a bumpkin from some long-declined wilderness world."

Since it's a bumpkin from a declined world.

Then it doesn't matter; I can probably handle them as I please.

I'll just vent some frustration at will!

If you don't die, it's your good luck! If you do, don't blame me!"
