After a brief interaction with Shi, Shi vanished as usual. Yu Ziqing estimated that if time went on too long, they might be discovered by the Ancient Sea God.
He didn't take the agreement seriously; he initially came to see if he could defeat the Ancient Sea God, but finding he couldn't, he needed an excuse to say something.
If the contract couldn't hold, then a few evasive words would suffice.
The Ancient Sea God turned around and broke the contract, continuing to attempt to alter time in secret, thinking no one would know.
It didn't matter now; the important matters couldn't be changed anymore.
According to the Primordial Lord, the Ancient Sea God abandoned this era, so what he was doing now must be laying the groundwork for the next era.
Yu Ziqing wouldn't let him comfortably squat till the next era.
The Ancient Sea God is dreaming.
We'll see, don't let a chance slip, or else he'll make sure to hit him hard.
To make him feel even more constrained and miserable than the Cliff Divine King who died under the Mountain Lord's axe.
Yu Ziqing pressed down the swirling thoughts in his mind and gradually calmed himself down to focus on gaining insights.
He already began to have some clues about his judgment ability, especially after glimpsing the River of Time and awakening the Name Calling Divine Power, this feeling became even more apparent.
He found the end of the thread, and now it was a matter of slowly pulling it out.
This would require Yu Ziqing to gradually comprehend on his own.
While Yu Ziqing's cultivation in the Dao Court, as he took advantage of the judgment state not yet disappearing, discovered some signs during his meditation.
In the Dao Court, the power of the Four Directions Kun Character was all gathered, with only a small hill on the Yellow Land.
As time passed, with the Five Qi Cycle in the Dao Court, plus the current moment, with thunder in the sky, gale in the middle, Earth Fire below, the evolution became increasingly complex, adding a thread of activity.
The Yellow Earth Mountain at the center began to ascend slowly.
Previously, Yu Ziqing thought it was just like this, slowly grinding up the final Yellow Earth over time.
Now, upon peering deeper into the core, he realized that the Kun Character force within the Yellow Land didn't originate from the transformation of the other four directions.
The true source was through Yu Ziqing himself.
In addition, the Earth Toad, always diligent and never slacking off, contributed.
At this moment, he could feel, when standing on the ground, the Earth Toad proactively exerted strength, combined with the evolution within the Dao Court, allowing the Yellow Earth Mountain to increase slightly.
Although the increase was nearly imperceptible and extremely slow, it was definitely growing.
After increasing a bit, it stopped again.
Yu Ziqing closed his eyes, trying to capture the imperceptible source of the Kun Character force.
After a long time, he still felt nothing, and the growth stagnated.
Thinking it over, he took a step and instantly appeared dozens of miles away.
When he arrived at a new place, standing on the ground, that slight increase reappeared.
The forces came from the earth, using him as a medium, entering the Dao Court, evolving through the Earth Toad's exertion, the Dao Court's transformation, the Five Elements Cycle, and the exertion of other four mountains, allowing the central Yellow Earth mound to grow.
His ability to serve as a medium was directly related to his Body Cultivation.
Body Cultivation relies on the most fundamental, inherent strength of a person, not acquired.
The strength of muscles, the power of Qi-Blood—these are intrinsic to humans.
The relationship with the earth is similar to You Zhen, who at the Tenth Tier, emphasizes deriving strength from the earth. Standing on the ground, he is almost an undying entity, whereas his power while airborne is of a completely different class.
Once all conditions are met, the increase in the Yellow Earth mound can be felt directly.
He sensed this power, using him as a medium, falling into the Dao Court, tracing back to its source, with a sudden realization.
He was mistaken before; the part of the Kun Character force corresponding to the Yellow Earth didn't come from those oceanic giant beasts.
It was merely that the giant shark, having devoured countless living beings and other things, finally swallowed the sixty-four-sided crystal.
The giant shark likely accumulated too much Kun Character force corresponding to the Yellow Earth within itself over time with the sixty-four-sided crystal.
The initial source certainly wasn't the giant shark.
Now, Yu Ziqing knew where the Kun Character force corresponding to the Yellow Earth was.
It had always been underfoot, on this land of the Four Divine Dynasties.
However, unlike the other four types of Five-Colored Soil, the association between this portion of the Kun Character force and the Yellow Earth wasn't strong.
This part of the Kun Character force is associated with the land and the beings living on it.
Yu Ziqing found himself quite fond of this current state, the ability to keenly dig into the roots, akin to finding the solution when solving math problems.
Now, he roughly understood why the Immovable Continent had always been overlooked.
Even the Ancient Sea God disregarded it, as did the Cliff Divine King; people from all aspects ignored the Immovable Continent.
It's not just because there were Four Divine Dynasties here, but from the start, its foundation was considerably lacking.
He also roughly understood why when the Yuan Lord fell, the Kun Character force was scattered.
From the beginning, it was destined that non-humans could never fully gather Kun Character force.
Cultivators without enough strength could also never gather it.
Those not willing to bow their heads and overlook the land could not gather it either.
Yu Ziqing opened the Bridge of Fairyland, arriving at the border of Dadui; he stood atop a mountain, looking down the mountain slowly, picked up a stone, and held a handful of soil.
