On the sky above White Jade Island.

Lin Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, his face calm.

Dozens of Transformation Stage Celestial Lords, led by the White Bone Celestial Lord, all bowed respectfully.

"Rise."

Lin Yuan was in a good mood.

Just now, he had taken a stroll inside White Jade Island and found the environment quite suitable for spreading martial arts, making it an excellent starting point.

Considering White Jade Island as the birthplace of martial arts was, at least in the initial stages, the best choice.

"Yes."

The Transformation Stage Celestial Lords, including the White Bone Celestial Lord, breathed a collective sigh of relief.

Compared to Lin Yuan's good mood, the shock in the hearts of these Transformation Stage Celestial Lords could only be described as earth-shattering.

Especially the White Bone Celestial Lord, who was leading them, was even more internally tumultuous.

Just as Lin Yuan uttered the words 'Whether you agree or not...', the White Bone Celestial Lord was already preparing to take action.

What a joke! White Jade Island was a rare opportunity in the East Sea for thousands of years. Why should Lin Yuan, with just a sentence declaring himself the Lord of White Jade Island, claim this precious island?

But before the White Bone Celestial Lord could act, he felt a pressure like an ocean engulfing him.

In that instant, the White Bone Celestial Lord felt as if he had returned to his Foundation Establishment stage, witnessing two Nascent Soul stage fighting.

The overwhelming pressure made the White Bone Celestial Lord tremble, and without hesitation, he chose to acknowledge Lin Yuan as the Lord of White Jade Island.

Because the White Bone Celestial Lord realized that if he didn't, the consequences would be dire.

He might even face death.

Compared to his own life, what was White Jade Island?

The White Bone Celestial Lord glanced at the other Transformation Stage Celestial Lords whose faces had turned pale, realizing they probably faced the same fate.

"This mysterious powerhouse is not just at the Transformation Stage peak; he has at least touched the threshold of Void Refinement or perhaps even reached the level of a Half-Step Void Refinement Ancient Saint."

The White Bone Celestial Lord felt helpless.

Advancing from Transformation Stage to Void Refinement stage required traversing many major stages.

Reaching Transformation Stage peak only meant reaching the pinnacle of Transformation Stage.

As for reaching the Void Refinement realm, it was still a distant goal.

This was also why the Void Refinement Ancient Saints in this realm were so rare.

Specifically speaking, after reaching Transformation Stage peak, there were still three or four stages to go through.

These stages included touching the threshold of Void Refinement, stepping halfway into Void Refinement, stepping into Void Refinement, and stepping fully into Void Refinement, and so on.

In the main world, advancing from the fifth rank to the sixth rank required a similar process of soul integration and transformation.

Each step of transformation would lead to a corresponding increase in strength.

When Lin Yuan's soul integration reached one hundred percent, his strength had reached the threshold of the sixth rank.

Of course, this kind of explanation was meaningless for most cultivators.

To True Immortals in the Nascent Soul stage, reaching Transformation Stage peak and stepping halfway into Void Refinement were almost the same.

And now, for the White Bone Celestial Lord who keenly felt the pressure emanating from Lin Yuan, he believed Lin Yuan had at least reached the level of a Half-Step Void Refinement Ancient Saint.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to give off such an irresistible feeling with just his aura.

"Those who came here should leave."

Lin Yuan glanced at the dozens of Transformation Stage Celestial Lords who were trembling, unsure whether to stay or leave, and said lightly.

"Well then, Lord of White Jade Island, we will take our leave."

The dozens of Transformation Stage Celestial Lords departed like rats fleeing from a cat, as if they had received a royal pardon.

Lin Yuan watched as the many Transformation Stage Celestial Lords left.

He didn't make a move.

With his strength, he could have easily kept all these Transformation Stage Celestial Lords here.

But it would be meaningless.

The East Sea was vast. Although the cultivation environment was not as good as the Central Continent, the area was comparable.

If Lin Yuan were to kill all the Transformation Stage Celestial Lords, the entire archipelago of the East Sea would undoubtedly fall into even greater chaos.

It would also attract the attention of the Daoist Immortal Sect, and perhaps even the Blood Demon Sea and the Ghostly Palace would take the opportunity to extend their influence into the East Sea.

For Lin Yuan, these Transformation Stage Celestial Lords in the East Sea would not affect him if they were alive, but their deaths would only lead to more chaos. That's why he didn't have the intention to kill them.

Above the sea surface.

Countless East Sea scattered cultivators watched as the dozens of Celestial Lords, who had seemed like gods, left, discussing how to divide White Jade Island.

Then, a figure walked out of White Jade Island, spoke a few words, and claimed to be the Lord of White Jade Island.

Even more unbelievably, the White Bone Celestial Lord and other Celestial Lords didn't object at all and bowed directly.

This was simply unbelievable.

And now, those Transformation Stage Celestial Lords, led by the White Bone Celestial Lord, left White Jade Island without hesitation, as if White Jade Island was no longer a desirable place but a nightmare.

"What happened exactly?"

"Why did the Celestial Lords leave?"

"Who is the person who walked out of White Jade Island claiming to be the Lord? Can he just call himself the Lord of White Jade Island?"

Countless East Sea scattered cultivators whispered, finding the scene too incredible. The Transformation Stage Celestial Lords, who were like gods, were unexpectedly 'kind'?

"I remember now, this person should be the mysterious powerhouse who destroyed the Black Veil Archipelago several years ago. I once went to the Black Veil Archipelago, and I still can't forget the extremely yang aura of his Sun True Fire."

"So it's that powerhouse."

"It doesn't make sense. Didn't that powerhouse claim to be only at the Transformation Stage peak? Why can he make the White Bone Celestial Lord and other Celestial Lords retreat?"

"It's simple. In the East Sea archipelago, strength is respected."

"As Transformation Stage peak cultivator, the White Bone Celestial Lord dared to claim fifty percent of the core area of White Jade Island."

"But this powerhouse directly claimed the entire White Jade Island for himself, which only shows that his strength far surpasses Transformation Stage peak."

The scattered cultivators of the East Sea speculated, unraveling much of the situation.

Actually, it's not difficult to think about it. Whether in the East Sea or the Central Continent, strength determines everything.

The retreat of the Transformation Stage Celestial Lords like the White Bone Celestial Lord might seem unimaginable, but upon careful consideration, the reasons become clear.

Under the sky.

Lin Yuan's gaze fell upon the countless scattered cultivators of the East Sea below.

"I am Yuan Yang, the Lord of White Jade Island. Today, I establish the White Jade Pavilion and accept disciples. Anyone who passes the test and joins the White Jade Pavilion will be eligible to enter the internal core area of White Jade Island for cultivation."

Lin Yuan spoke with a gentle voice, yet it echoed in the ears of every cultivator.

Yuan Yang was the name Lin Yuan chose for this Yang Spirit incarnation, and the White Jade Pavilion was the force he intended to establish to spread martial arts and paths of evolution.

After saying this, Lin Yuan disappeared from above White Jade Island.

And below, the countless East Sea cultivators were in an uproar.

"Yuan Yang, so this mysterious powerhouse is called Yuan Yang?"

"Did you hear that? As long as you pass the test and join the White Jade Pavilion, you can enter the internal area of White Jade Island for cultivation."

"I want to apply to join the White Jade Pavilion. It's good to take shelter under a big tree. With Yuan Yang as the Lord, following him should be the right choice."

Many cultivators were quite excited.

Of course, everyone also understood that since Yuan Yang mentioned 'passing the test,' it meant that not everyone could join the White Jade Pavilion.

But regardless, it wouldn't hurt to try, and there was nothing to lose.

Lin Yuan's occupation of White Jade Island and the establishment of the White Jade Pavilion, as well as the recruitment of disciples, not only caused a sensation in the East Sea archipelago but also attracted the attention of the Daoist Immortal Sect, which dominated the Central Continent.

The Daoist Immortal Mountain.

In the main hall at the highest point.

A hum echoed.

Above the main seat in the high hall.

The Sect Master of the Immortal Sect, Mu Qingliu, appeared.

"Sect Master."

Everyone rose and bowed.

"Speak directly."

Sect Master Mu Qingliu spoke.

"The mysterious powerhouse who attacked the Black Veil Archipelago has appeared again, claiming to be 'Yuan Yang,' occupying White Jade Island, establishing the White Jade Pavilion, and recruiting disciples," immediately reported Mu Mengting.

In recent years, he had been most concerned about this matter. After all, the Black Veil Archipelago was the result of his many years of effort. Its destruction was a heavy blow.

"Oh?"

"The Transformation Stage Celestial Lords of the East Sea let him do as he pleased?"

Sect Master Mu Qingliu frowned.

"It's not like they had a choice," Mu Mengting hesitated for a moment, "when White Jade Island emerged, Celestial Lords of the East Sea had their own thoughts about White Jade Island, but in the end, they all voluntarily gave up."

"Sect Master, this Yuan Yang's strength should not be as simple as Transformation Stage peak; he is likely at the Half-Step Void Refinement level," said an elder with golden lion mane-like curls.

"Half-Step Void Refinement?"

Sect Master Mu Qingliu fell into thought.

"What do you think?"

"How should we deal with this Yuan Yang and the White Jade Pavilion?"

Sect Master Mu Qingliu asked.

"Sect Master, such a powerhouse is difficult to deal with unless a Void Refinement Ancient Saint takes action; otherwise, it's hard to do anything to him," said Jun Dongjin.

A Half-Step Void Refinement Ancient Saint's strength surpassed the Transformation Stage level. They were fearless without the intervention of an Ancient Saint.

Even with the town-protecting immortal artifact Taihao Mirror, manifesting an incarnation thousands of miles away, it still couldn't do anything to a Half-Step Ancient Saint.

The strength of the incarnation was far inferior to the main body, at most possessing strength close to an Ancient Saint's.

It's just that the Lord of White Jade Island was a Half-Step Ancient Saint, and only a true Ancient Saint could pose a threat to him.

However, the Daoist Immortal Sect only had the Sect Master as a Void Refinement Ancient Saint, although it had many reserves, they were mostly inclined towards defensive protection.

Unless the Lord of White Jade Island actively stepped into the Central Continent, residing in the vast East Sea, there was nothing the Daoist Immortal Sect could do to him.

As for letting the Sect Master Mu Qingliu take the town-protecting immortal artifact and go to the East Sea to kill him, it wasn't without risks.

To place their immortal mountain in danger for the sake of a mere Half-Step Void Refinement was not worth it, even with a very low possibility.

"Let's wait and see for now."

Sect Master Mu Qingliu said.

In fact, with the Daoist Immortal Sect's background, even if Mu Qingliu took the town-protecting immortal artifact and left.

Even if the Ghostly Palace, the Blood Demon Sea, and the Savage Demon Saint's Nest joined forces, they wouldn't be able to break through the Daoist Immortal Mountain in a short time. But there was no need for that.

To resist the siege of three Void Refinement Ancient Saints without a peer, the Daoist Immortal Sect would also have to pay a considerable price.

The Lord of White Jade Island was only a Half-Step Void Refinement Ancient Saint, not worth the Daoist Immortal Sect's efforts to deal with.

For tens of thousands of years, the Central Continent had seen many such figures come and go without the need for the Immortal Sect to intervene.

Time passed.

Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

White Jade Island in the East Sea.

Inside the core cave mansion.

Lin Yuan sat cross-legged.

By the sixth rank, Lin Yuan's Yang Spirit and Yin Spirit had almost condensed into substance. Unless he exerted his full strength, it was impossible to tell that this was a primordial spirit.

After a short while.

Lin Yuan finished his cultivation.

Stepping out of the cave mansion, he looked out over the entire White Jade Island.

In the span of ten years, the White Jade Pavilion had grown significantly. With a powerhouse like Lin Yuan presiding over it, many scattered cultivators in the East Sea were eager to join the White Jade Pavilion.

Of course, the requirement for joining the White Jade Pavilion was that regardless of the cultivation method one practiced before joining, it had to be abandoned afterward in favor of martial arts cultivation.

This requirement deterred many scattered cultivators, but there were still many cultivators willing to switch to martial arts cultivation.

As of today, there were over a hundred thousand martial arts cultivators in White Jade Jing.

Among them, there were twelve individuals at the third level of martial arts, five thousand seven hundred and thirty at the second level, and over ninety thousand at the first level.

White Jade Island was rich in spiritual energy, comparable to the cave paradises of the Central Continent. Although martial arts did not rely on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, having it was better than not.

"Master."

Just as Lin Yuan stepped out of the cave mansion, a delicate-looking girl walked over and respectfully greeted him.

This girl, named Li Qing, was a disciple Lin Yuan had taken in over the past ten years. Her aptitude for martial arts was not bad, and she had already reached the third level of martial arts.

"How is the spread of martial arts techniques going?" Lin Yuan inquired.

Li Qing not only had good aptitude but also handled matters reliably and maturely. When Lin Yuan was in seclusion, most of the affairs of the White Jade Pavilion were entrusted to her.

"Master, the introductory martial arts techniques have already spread throughout the East Sea archipelago and have partially entered the Central Continent. They are also spreading to the Blood Demon Sea and the Ghostly Palace," Li Qing replied.

"Well done," Lin Yuan nodded.

To spread the path of martial arts evolution, relying solely on White Jade Island and the White Jade Pavilion was far from enough.

Instead, having martial arts techniques spread throughout this world was the goal. Even if White Jade Island and the White Jade Pavilion were destroyed and disappeared in the future, the martial arts system would still exist.

This was Lin Yuan's purpose.

The world consciousness of this world was different from that of the Five Realms and would not target any particular cultivation system.

Yunwu Paradise.

In the cultivation chamber.

Lin Yuan sat quietly, his aura circulating within his body.

Suddenly.

Lin Yuan's aura soared abruptly.

"Sixth rank, fifth stage."

Lin Yuan opened his eyes, and his aura quickly converged, just like an ordinary person.

After ten years of cultivation, Lin Yuan had developed the sixth-rank martial arts system into the fifth stage.

But Lin Yuan also felt that the further he progressed, the harder it became. This was because the paths he opened up for the martial arts evolution system were as perfect as possible.

If he only created an ordinary sixth-rank evolutionary path, Lin Yuan wouldn't have needed to exert so much effort.

"However."

"On the side of body cultivation, I can break through to the Void Refinement level."

A smile appeared on Lin Yuan's face. In the span of ten years, besides opening up paths for martial arts evolution, Lin Yuan had not stopped his research into body cultivation.

Now, Lin Yuan's achievements in body cultivation had reached the pinnacle, only one step away from breaking through to the Void Refinement level.
