However…

The dog he adopts becomes a demon king of a generation when it sees his poems and paintings. It manages to suppress an entire world.

The tree he plants behind his house becomes a World Tree after listening to his zither music, forming a bridge between heaven and earth.

He meets a passerby who is enlightened by him and becomes an immortal sage who leads an entire generation.

When he looks back—

It turns out that the scholar who had been pestering him for his calligraphy and paintings despite having crappy chess skills, is a chess saint from the Immortal Realm. The beautiful woman who comes to listen to his music every night is the number one saintess of the Immortal Realm…

Yet, the lava beasts were just exterminated when more beasts crawled out of the volcanoes.

They were like spirits of the volcanoes, impossible to get rid of. Their prowess was terrifying as well.

Yang Jian furrowed his eyebrows, "The volcanoes have souls. How did this happen?"

Even though everything under the heavens could gain a soul, it was incredibly difficult for something like a volcano to get a soul.

Humans were the leader in terms of getting souls, being born naturally with sentience. After that were animals and then plants. Mountains, rocks, and wood were never alive, to begin with. Unless something that defied the heavens happened, it was impossible for them to gain souls.

All of the volcanoes there had souls, and they were not the weak sort. Instead, they were incredibly strong.

"Could the gray mist have even corrupted these volcanoes? It's the whole area within the Volcanoes of Disaster!"
