Half a month later, this Small Realm was completely stabilized. Array patterns stabilizing the space flowed slowly around the edges of the Small Realm like a solidified galaxy.
Chen Sheng nodded slightly, lifting his eyes to the seventy-two Tier Four Array Banners at the edge of the Small Realm, which were still suspended in the void, emitting a faint purple spirit light that resonated with the space barrier of the Small Realm.
Chen Sheng formed the "Flag Collection Technique" with his hands, softly intoning:
"Return!"
As his words fell, a wisp of faint purple Void Power flew from his fingertips, connecting to the nearest Array Banner like a thread.
The Array Banner, as if receiving an invisible command, suddenly gathered its spirit light. It swiftly shrank from a three-zhang-high giant banner, like a balloon losing its air, to the size of a finger in an instant.
The shrunken Array Banner, with a faint whistling sound, transformed into a streak of light and flew directly into the sleeve of Chen Sheng.
Subsequently, the remaining seventy-one Array Banners responded in kind, transforming into streaks of light. In just a few breaths, all seventy-two Array Banners returned to Chen Sheng's hands, and he stored them one by one into his Storage Ring.
With the collection of the Array Banners, the energy barrier originally constructed by the Array Banners at the Small Realm's edge gradually dissipated, yet the stability of the surrounding space remained unaffected.
The array pattern network, planned in advance, had completely integrated with the space of the Small Realm, maintaining normal operation even without the support of the Array Banners.
After retrieving the Array Banners, Chen Sheng's gaze fell upon the Five-Colored Dust Transformation Cauldron suspended high above the Small Realm.
At this moment, the Five Elements Runes on the cauldron body were still glowing. Five streams of spirit light, each of different attributes, cascaded down like waterfalls, continuously infusing the Small Realm's earth veins with the Power of the Five Elements, making the Small Realm more stable.
A thought stirred in Chen Sheng's mind; this Pill Furnace now served as the energy core of the Power of the Five Elements. If he were to forcibly retrieve it now, it might cause a temporary disruption in the energy of the Small Realm's earth veins. He needed to first sever its energy connection with the Small Realm.
Chen Sheng slowly raised his hand, gathering five streams of mana, each of a different color, corresponding to the Five Elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

The five streams of mana rose slowly like five tiny spiritual snakes, winding around the body of the Five-Colored Dust Transformation Cauldron.
Through these five streams of mana, Chen Sheng precisely sensed the energy linkage points between the cauldron body and the Small Realm's earth veins, then carefully severed the connection points one by one.
As the last energy linkage point was cut, the Five Elements Runes on the cauldron body gradually dimmed.
Taking this opportunity, Chen Sheng executed the "Cauldron Collection Technique," enveloping the cauldron body in a faint golden spirit light.
The originally zhang-high Pill Furnace began to shrink slowly, the Five Elements Runes on its body extinguishing as if entering dormancy, leaving only a faint Power of the Five Elements lingering on its surface.
The shrunken Five-Colored Dust Transformation Cauldron became only the size of a fist, but its weight was still astonishing, causing Chen Sheng's arm to sink slightly as it landed in his palm.
Chen Sheng gently stroked the cauldron body's patterns, feeling the pure Power of the Five Elements contained within, and nodded in satisfaction.
In this opening of the Small Realm, the Five-Colored Dust Transformation Cauldron perfectly played its role in guiding the Power of the Five Elements, organizing the energy, and stabilizing the earth veins of the Small Realm.
Moreover, in the fusion with the Void Power, the Five Elements Runes on the cauldron body became more vibrant, promising better results in future alchemy and artifact refining.
He also stored the Five-Colored Dust Transformation Cauldron into his Storage Ring, placing it with the seventy-two Tier Four Array Banners for convenient access in the future.
"Next is the array formation!"
A thought came to Chen Sheng's mind, and he quickly retrieved a palm-sized black Array Disc from his Storage Ring, the center of which was engraved with the core rune for "Long-distance Void Shifting," surrounded by thirty-six small grooves.
This was the quasi-Tier Four Teleportation Array Disc he had refined in advance. Although it needed to be reactivated, it spared the trouble of engraving the core rune from scratch.
Chen Sheng flicked out a wisp of Void Power from his fingertip, lightly pressing it onto the rune at the disc's center. Instantly, the rune lit up with a silver-white glow, as if a sleeping behemoth had been awakened, beginning to autonomously absorb the surrounding Void Power.
"The foundation of this Teleportation Array can be fully bound to the Small Realm's void in-depth, enabling the Grand Array to perform perfectly,"
Chen Sheng had already made his decision. At this moment, his hands formed the "Void Array Seal," a faint silver-white spirit light flickering in his palms.
He slowly raised his hand, drawing a mysterious arc in the void with the spirit light, causing the first "Long-distance Void Shifting Array Pattern" to emerge.
This array pattern resembled a meandering river, its surface covered with tiny void nodes. One end connected to the core rune of the Array Disc, and the other extended toward the array patterns at the Small Realm's edge.
The moment the array pattern formed, it automatically absorbed the Void Power within the Small Realm, its glow becoming increasingly dazzling, faintly resonating with the surrounding space barrier.
He did not pause, as the spirit light in his palms continuously flickered, causing an array pattern after another to emerge in the void like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.
Some array patterns formed rings, surrounding the Array Disc, forming energy circulation channels, while others formed straight lines, connecting different positions, constructing a void coordinate network, all gradually weaving into a massive array pattern web in the center of the Small Realm.
Each depiction of the array patterns was precise to the millimeter, with the spacing of runes, strength of the spirit light, and compatibility with Void Power reaching a very high realm.
This level could only be achieved through Chen Sheng's hundreds of years of study in the Array Dao, coupled with his profound understanding of Void Shifting Power.
Though it may not match a Daoist Sect's "Long-distance Teleportation Array" capable of shifting across billions of miles, supporting a mere tens of millions of miles of teleportation is sufficient!
As the number of array patterns increased, the Void Power within the Small Realm began to fluctuate violently.
"Void coordinates, fix!"
Chen Sheng shouted softly, taking out a pale blue Space Crystal Stone from his Storage Ring, inside which was sealed the void coordinates of the Three Elements Dao Sect of Yue Country, specially recorded before his departure.
He embedded the crystal stone into the groove at the center of the Array Disc, again forming a Void Array Seal with his fingertips, causing a silver-white beam of light to shoot out from the crystal stone, linking with the array pattern web in the void.
The beam swiftly traversed the array pattern web, as if drawing a complex map, clearly marking the void coordinates between Yue Country and Chu Country on the array pattern.
When the final void coordinate bound with the array pattern web, the entire teleportation array suddenly burst forth with a dazzling silver-white light.
The light spread out, covering a range of several dozen feet in the center of the small realm. The array pattern web in the void was completely activated, with each array pattern shimmering with brilliant spiritual light as if coming to life.
The rune in the center of the array disc began to spin, forming a small space vortex!
Chen Sheng slowly withdrew his hands. He could clearly feel that the teleportation array was now fully bound to the space of the small realm, with the array pattern web functioning like the "blood vessels" of the small realm, constantly absorbing the power of void origin to sustain the operation of the teleportation array.
He attempted to inject a thread of divine sense into the teleportation array. The divine sense swiftly traversed along the array pattern web, reaching the coordinates of the Three Elements Dao Sect sealed within the space crystal stone instantly.
This meant that as long as enough spiritual power was injected, the teleportation array could be activated immediately, transporting someone from the void realm in Chu Country directly to the Three Elements Dao Sect in Yue Country.
"It's done!"
A glimmer of joy flashed in Chen Sheng's eyes, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. He flew slowly around the teleportation array, carefully inspecting each array pattern and every node to ensure there were no omissions.
The array pattern web of the teleportation array operated stably, the void coordinates were clear and correct, the energy cycle was smooth and unobstructed, sufficient to support multiple travels of a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
He paused beside the array disc, raised his hand and embedded several high-grade spirit crystals into the energy grooves of the array disc. As soon as the spirit crystals made contact with the array disc, they automatically released pure spiritual qi, replenishing the teleportation array with energy.
"With the support of this small realm, the teleportation array can stably exist for thousands of years until this small realm shatters."
"Perfect." Chen Sheng's voice of admiration gently echoed in the void realm, carrying the lightness of dust settling. His divine sense once more swept through everything before him.
The spirit light of the remote teleportation array in the center swirled, the silver-white array pattern web interlinked seamlessly with the power of void origin of the small realm.
The five-colored mountains beneath became increasingly substantial, and the surrounding mist was slowly regathering, like a gentle veil, wrapping the entire small realm in a more ethereal illusion.
"Let's go."
Chen Sheng murmured softly to himself, turning and heading towards the entrance of the small realm.
At the edge of the small realm, the void began to ripple like a water screen, and a translucent portal slowly formed — this was the entrance and exit he had previously established.
As his figure stepped into the portal, the speed of the cloud mist gathering in the void realm behind him suddenly accelerated.
The pale white mist, as if driven by an invisible hand, converged from all directions, first encasing the silver-white spirit light of the teleportation array in layers, causing the glow of the array pattern web to become faint and fleeting.
Then, the mist spread across every inch of the small realm, leaving only a hazy white, as if the small realm had never existed, returning to the primal silence of the void.
The next moment, in the originally empty valley, beside the green stone, the void suddenly rippled like a water curtain.
The ripples spread layer by layer, and Chen Sheng's figure slowly emerged, his feet landing steadily on the green stone in the center of the valley.
As soon as he appeared, the water curtain portal behind him began to contract, dissipating like the receding tide, leaving only a faint spatial fluctuation in the void, which was soon completely dispelled by the wind in the valley.
Chen Sheng did not leave immediately but turned to face the location where the portal had appeared — the void there seemed no different from the surroundings, yet it concealed the core coordinates of the small realm.
He raised his hand to form seals, casting spells to conceal the space nodes, ensuring that even a Nascent Soul Cultivator would find it difficult to detect anything unusual without careful probing.
"The first, Locking Space Technique!"
Chen Sheng whispered a command in his heart, flicking out a pale golden spell with his fingertips. The spell merged into the void like a shooting star, instantly erasing the once faint spatial fluctuation.
Immediately, he cast the second and third spells — "Illusionary Trace Technique" and "Qi Concealing Technique."
The "Illusionary Trace Technique," once integrated into the void, formed an invisible maze centered on the small realm's coordinates. Should a cultivator's divine sense sweep through, they would only perceive chaotic spatial noise, mistaking the location for a typical void turbulence area.
The "Qi Concealing Technique" thoroughly sealed the slight spiritual energy leaking from within the small realm, aligning the spiritual energy concentration of the valley with the surrounding environment, ensuring no anomaly would be detected.
Each spell, like golden threads, wove into a complex array pattern web in the void.
Chen Sheng's fingers danced, rapid as illusions, with each spell cast precisely, with unmatched accuracy in angle, strength, and spiritual energy input.
These spells were not just methods for concealing the small realm; they were also the "keys" to unlocking it. In the future, by replicating the same sequence and force, the void portal could be reactivated, granting entry into the small realm.
As the final "Sealing Realm Technique" merged into the void, the surroundings returned to utter calm, as though no trace of a space node had ever existed.
Chen Sheng stepped back two paces, releasing a strand of divine sense to carefully probe the area. His divine sense brushed over the spot, sensing only the same essence as any ordinary valley, with no spatial fluctuations or spiritual energy anomalies.
Even if a Nascent Soul True Monarch personally came, without the specific spells, it would be virtually impossible to discern the secrets of this place.
He nodded in satisfaction, his gaze once again cast into the void, though tinged with a trace of regret.
"It's a pity the spiritual energy within is not stable; otherwise, it would also have been an excellent cultivation secret mansion."
Though the small realm was established through space nodes, the effects of the spatial tides were not completely eliminated. The power of void origin inside fluctuated, with spiritual energy concentration varying likewise, making it far less suitable for long-term seclusion than the stable spirit veins of a cultivation sect.
However, this regret was quickly suppressed — even with unstable spiritual energy, the small realm remained a rare temporary stronghold.
Not only could he quickly travel between Yue Country and Chu Country through the teleportation array, but it also served as a refuge in times of danger and could conceal critical facilities like the teleportation array. For him, this was more than enough.
Chen Sheng cast one last glance at the concealed small realm coordinates, the faint purple void power swirling around him quietly emerged, causing the void behind him to ripple. His form gradually dissipated into the space.
