### The Legends of Ren Zu

Chapter 466

After a Gu Immortal successfully advances to rank 8 their blessed land would undergo a qualitative transformation, becoming a grotto-heaven. Every "rule" that applies to a blessed land does generally apply to a grotto-heaven as well, with a few minor differences or exceptions which are listed below.

For more complementary information please consider visiting Blessed Land.

### Space

The space of a blessed land does grow considerably after turning into a grotto-heaven and is further affected by the corresponding space path attainment of the Gu Immortal.

## Uniqueness of Grotto-Heavens

Rank 8 and rank 9 Gu Immortals generally possess a vast amount of dao marks which displays itself in the characteristical effects of their grotto-heavens as weather changes and astronomical phenomena like a day and night cycle. In comparison to blessed lands, the space of grotto-heavens would also split up into separate segments, unlike the unified space of a blessed land. Grotto-Heavens also couldn't normally be placed down on five regions during Calamities and Tribulations, it must be attached to Immemorial Nine Heavens.

Instead of land spirits, Grotto-Heavens possess heavenly spirits that serve the same purpose as the former. It is unknown, however, how a heavenly spirit differs in terms of unique abilities.

### Special Grotto-Heavens

If a Gu Immortal is certain that he is not able to pass the oncoming calamity or tribulation he has the option to absorb a fragment of the immemorial nine heavens into his immortal aperture. If the grotto-heaven absorbed enough fragments, the calamities and tribulations would henceforth stop from appearing, the grotto heaven might obtain additional mystical power, and the heavenly power of the grotto heaven would be unlimited. The downside of this method was that absorbing immemorial nine heaven, no matter how little, would make it impossible to be picked up and placed inside the Gu Immortal's body again. Not only that, the Gu Immortal wouldn't be able to leave his grotto-heaven until it was destroyed, leaving the immortal trapped inside forever. The inside of the grotto-heaven would be observed by Heaven's Will and the resulting heavenly spirit would be highly affected by it, becoming largely unresponsive, its intelligence and communication ability degenerated, and acting in certain 'hardwired patterns' akin to instincts from their 'previous life.

### Resource Production

Grotto-heavens have the unique characteristic of naturally producing Heavenly Crystals.

## Unconventional Methods

Here are a few unconventional and unorthodox methods that are only known by a few which either go against the general consensus of the majority of Gu Immortals or are otherwise noteworthy:

* A grotto-heaven can be tempered with to make it "fall" and become a blessed land again, this can be done to avoid the might of rank 8 calamities and tribulations. (this was done by Lang Ya Land Spirit)

## Trivia

* Treasure Yellow Heaven is the most famous grotto-heaven which absorbed a fragment of Yellow Heaven and is now a place in which Gu Immortals, land spirits and heavenly spirits exchange their goods and services.
