"Not only the Spirit Deer clan, but you may also take the spirit vein river and the immortal qi."
The old deer remained kneeling, and the old turtle's voice also entered his ears.
Yu Zhibo was a little confused.
The old turtle was too good to him.
Logically, there was no hatred without reason and no love without reason.
But, the old turtle's goodwill made him feel no calculation whatsoever, as if it were simply a gift from an elder to a junior.
Yu Zhibo trusted his intuition, so he no longer stood on ceremony.
"Since your Spirit Deer clan sincerely pledges allegiance to me, then I shall accept you," Yu Zhibo said with a smile to the old deer.
The fragment of the World Heart that Old Wang had gifted him had long since been purified, but it contained mostly spiritual energy, with little immortal qi, and a low coverage of green plants, failing to form a complete ecosystem.
The old turtle's words reminded him of this deficiency.
So, with a wave of his hand, he collected the entire Spirit Deer clan into his space, then dispatched ten clones to carry out a massive environmental overhaul within the space.
In the Pure Land space, the Wood Clone clapped his hands, and large swathes of trees sprang from the ground, quickly forming forests, as well as various shrubs and flowers.
The Earth Clone stomped his right foot, and the earth cracked open, forming dry riverbeds that crisscrossed the entire world, and also creating numerous pits, which began to take the form of lakes.
The Water Clone pouted, spewing out endless water, and thus, rivers were completely formed, and the original pits transformed into lakes as clear as mirrors.
Another Shadow Clone's pupils widened, and a great sun appeared in the sky, rising in the east and setting in the west, thus realizing the alternation of day and night.
Then, other clones evolved various laws and integrated them into the Pure Land space, making the entire world more perfect.
"This is..."
Lu Jiuge, along with the rest of his clan, landed on a patch of grass. Feeling the changes around him, he was shocked into silence, and then a surge of intense joy welled up in his heart.
The Pure Land space had few species and was infinitely safer compared to the perilous Green Rock Island surrounding it.
Admittedly, she didn't know if Yu Zhibo would introduce other species in the future, but her intuition told her that even if this world was later populated by countless races, Yu Zhibo, the new master, would never, like the old turtle, allow their Spirit Deer clan to face extinction.
"Grandma, this grass is so unpalatable!"
A young deer behind her, upon discovering it had changed environments, immediately began to feast, but after chewing a few blades of grass, it frowned.
Lu Jiuge's forehead twitched.
Before she could reprimand it, the large deer behind her transformed into a two-meter-tall burly man, rushed over, and gave the young deer a resounding slap that sent it flying over three meters away, landing in the newly filled lake.
The large deer, now a burly man, glared with his round eyes at his son and scolded, "You stinking brat, it's good enough to have a place to settle down, and you dare to be picky, ah, ah, this is truly infuriating!"
The large deer originally didn't care about Yu Zhibo, because the Spirit Deer clan was merely prey that cultivators of Green Rock Island could kill with a casual effort. As long as they weren't wiped out, it was fine. Therefore, he had no intention of trying to please this outsider, Yu Zhibo.
But upon discovering that Yu Zhibo was willing to take them in and give them a new place to live, his indifferent attitude instantly turned into deep gratitude, and a fear of enraging Yu Zhibo lest he refuse to take them in.
Seeing his son dare to act so arrogantly, he was filled with great anger.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He rushed into the water again and beat the young deer mercilessly, until the deer sounded like a sheep.
The other young deer, seeing this, rolled their eyes and dared not say a word.
"Junior's words are impudent, please forgive us, Master!"
After beating the young deer, the burly man flew ashore and kowtowed to the Yu Zhibo clone evolving the world's laws in the sky, begging for forgiveness.
Lu Jiuge and the other deer also knelt down, their eyes filled with fear.
In the sky, the steady clone, who was evolving the laws of water, smiled slightly, "Everyone, there's no need to be like this. Since you are here, make yourselves at home. However, the population still needs to be controlled. If you flood the entire world, other races will naturally suppress you. You need to be mentally prepared."
Yu Zhibo would not allow species to proliferate excessively. The steady clone had naturally grasped this point and directly gave the Spirit Deer a preemptive warning to prevent them from harboring resentment in the future.
Having experienced the decline of their clan, all the deer were already content with this and expressed their thanks.
The steady clone then waved his hand, and a light barrier appeared out of thin air, covering an area of ten thousand meters. The steady clone said, "This barrier can accommodate five thousand Spirit Deer. Within the barrier, apart from your Spirit Deer clan, no other creatures are allowed. This is considered a fallback for you, so that you will not face the danger of clan extinction when encountering natural enemies in the future."
The deer were overjoyed and prostrated themselves again.
The steady clone nodded slightly. At this moment, a rift opened in the dome, and a surging immortal qi poured in, instantly making the entire world more vibrant.
Outside the Pure Land space.
As Yu Zhibo allowed the space to absorb the immortal qi, he also transported unclaimed spirit veins, as well as various plants and small animals from the surroundings, causing the once fragrant valley to become patchy and revealing barren, yellowish-brown earth.
The surging immortal qi was absorbed into the Pure Land space, but it seemed that the top powerhouses of Green Rock Island had received instructions from the old turtle, so no one showed themselves, allowing Yu Zhibo to act freely.
However, some cultivators with lower cultivation levels were unhappy: We were living well on this immortal island, so why are you, an outsider, doing this?! You're plundering as soon as you arrive, as if you've never seen the world!
These people had not received instructions from the old turtle, and their sect elders also had some intention of testing Yu Zhibo, so they did not stop him.
Soon, beams of light shot over, and shadowy figures flew above Yu Zhibo, a group of cultivators looking indignant.
Among them were even cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage.
"Fellow Daoist, you're welcome to visit, but why are you packing up the local specialties? This is the territory of my Sky-Splitting Sword Sect. Don't go too far!"
"My Azure Cloud Sect also cannot stand by and watch!"
"If you come as a guest, we welcome you. If you come as a bandit, then don't blame us for being impolite!"
Seeing the crowd's indignation, Yu Zhibo felt a little embarrassed.
But thinking that this entire world belonged to the old turtle, he became righteous again. He looked at everyone with a half-smile and said, "Haven't you ever thought about why your sect elders have not reacted at all to the great commotion I'm causing?"
"What other reason could there be? Of course, it's because they don't want to bully the younger generation!" a peak Nascent Soul stage (A-rank 99th tier) sword cultivator said coldly. Even though he realized Yu Zhibo had reached the Soul Transformation stage, he was not afraid at all.
The combat power of sword cultivators had always been unrivaled among their peers, and fighting across realms was a common occurrence. This sword cultivator was very confident and wanted to use Yu Zhibo as a stepping stone to advance to the Soul Transformation stage.
The faces of the others also showed expressions of eagerness.
The law fluctuations on Yu Zhibo's body were different from everyone else's, making him an excellent target for verifying their own techniques.
Seeing this, Yu Zhibo sighed softly.
In the end, he couldn't avoid fighting with the local natives.
