Chapter 188: Real and Fake Blood Demon Island
Doing it as soon as he thought of it, high efficiency had always been Lu Yang’s merit.
Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that [Blood Demon Island] had not yet fallen out of the Foundation Establishment Realm, Lu Yang immediately began the layout. He also had plans for the design of the secret realm.
[Embrace and Guard Mountain]!
“This Innate Divine Ability, when turning illusory, can seal and suppress Divine Abilities. When turning tangible, it can truly transform into a mountain peak. No one has seen it before; just right to use it to act as a secret realm.”
Moreover, after [Embrace and Guard Mountain] turned tangible, it also came with an ability to suppress spiritual qi, karma, and qi destiny within a certain range. Didn’t this exactly match the characteristics of a secret realm? In this way, he could send everyone into his Innate Divine Ability, letting them walk right into the trap one by one!
“However, relying solely on this, the flaw is still too big.”
Although [Embrace and Guard Mountain] could materialize, it was essentially an Innate Divine Ability after all, and the karma pointed directly to Lu Yang. It couldn’t withstand careful scrutiny.
Lu Yang fell into brief contemplation.
Seeing this scene, Patriarch Nether Whisper beside him finally couldn’t help speaking: “First is karma. You can try to transfer the karma onto Blood Demon Island.”
“That’s right!”
Lu Yang’s eyes brightened slightly: “Patriarch makes sense. Every secret realm needs an origin. A secret realm without cause and effect is hard to deceive Foundation Establishment Perfected Ones.”
“It’s just that this karma is relatively hard to manage.” Patriarch Nether Whisper shook his head.
“What’s hard about it?”
Lu Yang grinned: “This [Blood Demon Island] doesn’t look big either. I’ll dig a hole in the center of [Embrace and Guard Mountain] and stuff it in; wouldn’t that solve it!”
“My Life-Bound Divine Ability [Distinguish Same and Different] can cut, so naturally it can also merge! Mixing the karma of my [Embrace and Guard Mountain] and [Blood Demon Island] together, indistinguishable from each other. In this way, no matter who it is, no matter how they calculate, they will only treat my [Embrace and Guard Mountain] as Perfected One Blood Demon’s secret realm!”
Lu Yang wasn’t speaking recklessly.
If he could stuff [Blood Demon Island] into [Embrace and Guard Mountain], then this method was truly feasible. After all, there really was a Perfected One Blood Demon inside Embrace and Guard Mountain!
Doing it as soon as he thought of it, Lu Yang immediately began operating his Divine Ability.
Not long after, a towering mountain shadow appeared within the Foundation Establishment Realm. Turning from illusory to tangible, it covered the outside of Blood Demon Island firmly like a shell.
“The original [Blood Demon Island] was still too small.”
“Didn’t look like a secret realm left by a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Grand Perfected One at all. Now with my [Embrace and Guard Mountain], it can barely be considered to have some grandeur.”
At this moment, under Lu Yang’s meticulous design, at a glance, [Blood Demon Island] seemed to have already become a mountain within a mountain at the center of Embrace and Guard Mountain. The two were spliced together naturally and seamlessly. Lu Yang even added a palace shell to it, making it look a bit more magnificent.
Immediately afterward, Lu Yang began throwing precious lights onto it.
Anyway, do it as grandly as possible. The goal was to make everyone feel that [Blood Demon Island] was the core of the secret realm, and the real treasures were all inside here.
“Just right to let the people outside scout the path for me too.”
“Let them and Perfected One Blood Demon hurt each other!”
“This damned Perfected One Blood Demon, since he dared to blatantly use this method to shift Heavenly Punishment, I estimate in all likelihood he also left some backup…”
Lu Yang had always been a person with a mind as meticulous as a needle.
Perfected One Blood Demon set up such a layout and pitted him once. If he didn’t pit back, would he still be a Saint Sect Perfected One? How could he hang around in the Saint Sect in the future?
Soon, the secret realm was preliminarily set up.
For this, Lu Yang also arranged his [Heavenly Sea Massacre Sword Formation Diagram] and [Soul-Dissolving Spirit-Scattering Mind-Seizing Smoke] on it, creating two dangerous places in the secret realm.
“As for names, let’s call them [Red Blood Lake] and [Soul-Dissolving Valley]. One is a lake with monstrous blood waves, the other is a valley filled with bewildering smoke that can make even Foundation Establishment Perfected Ones groggy. Best to put another one or two treasures in, so it’s easier to lure people to actively explore the secret realm…”
“But these treasures don’t need to be too good.”
“After all, the treasures are all in [Blood Demon Island]; how can the ones outside be too good? Just need to be mediocre, arousing people’s greed but not satisfying it.”
“Only when people are being hooked will they gradually lose their reason.”
“Plus the influence of Tribulation Qi will blinding their hearts. I guarantee at that time when people entering the secret realm, they will beat each other’s brains out fighting for [Blood Demon Island]…”
The more Lu Yang designed, the more excited he became.
“Patriarch, do you have any suggestions?” Lu Yang turned his head and said enthusiastically to Patriarch Nether Whisper: “Do you think there’s anything else that needs improvement?”
“…”
Don’t mention me in the same breath as you!
Patriarch Nether Whisper looked speechless. Although he was also of the Demonic Path, he had always acted open and transparent in his life. How could he be that kind of shameless person who swindles and bluffs?
“The secret realm design is not bad, but floating on the surface, still too rough.”
“Although your [Embrace and Guard Mountain] can turn into a physical entity, its essence is still a Divine Ability.”
Patriarch Nether Whisper shook his head: “Therefore, its biggest flaw is that it cannot withstand destruction. Once destroyed by someone, the details will be exposed immediately.”
“Maybe it can trick people in, but it can’t hide from people with true knowledge and experience. At least it can’t hide from that Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator of the Jade Pivot Sword Pavilion. With the opponent’s temperament, directly taking the sword and hacking at you randomly, your [Embrace and Guard Mountain] definitely can’t withstand it, and the lie will be poked through with one touch.”
“Patriarch makes sense.” Lu Yang said patiently: “Then is there a method to salvage it?”
“…Not that there isn’t.”
Patriarch Nether Whisper nodded. He built the Shaman-Ghost Dao secret realm back then. He was an expert in this field and had long thought of a solution.
“Use the [Heavenly Corpse Baleful Qi]!”
Only then did Lu Yang remember. Of the two streams of [Heavenly Corpse Baleful Qi] of the Shaman-Ghost Dao back then, one was given to Perfected One Yin Shan, and the other was still unused in his hands.
Back then he only asked Zhao Xuhe to explode the earth vein, but didn’t ask him to destroy the [Heavenly Corpse Baleful Qi].
After all, it was a stream of Earthly Fiend Qi no matter what. At that time, he felt it would have other uses in the future. Now it seemed keeping it was indeed a wise move!
Patriarch Nether Whisper continued: “My Shaman-Ghost Dao has a secret technique that can use the [Heavenly Corpse Baleful Qi] to catalyze a stream of Earth Vein Qi. Although incomparable to a true earth vein, it touches upon Heaven and Earth. Destroying it will likewise incur Heavenly Punishment. Merging it into [Embrace and Guard Mountain] is enough to make people hesitate to act for fear of consequences.”
No one was willing to be tainted by Heavenly Punishment.
If destroying [Embrace and Guard Mountain] would incur Heavenly Punishment, even Ye Xingfeng would inevitably be cautious, unable to act willfully relying on his own strength anymore.
In this way, the possibility of exposure was greatly reduced instantly.
“Also, regarding the spiritual treasures placed in [Embrace and Guard Mountain], you don’t need to use real spiritual treasures. Just take these Banner Spirits inside the Myriad Spirits Banner to make up the numbers.”
“After all, no matter how you conceal the karma of your spiritual treasures, there is a possibility of exposure, which is troublesome instead.”
“On the contrary, these Banner Spirits of yours, for some reason, are all devoid of cause and effect. They look just like ownerless objects, easier to win people’s trust instead.”
“As for the appearance of Banner Spirits, the exterior is just human, but the essence is merely composed of Primordial Qi. As long as you want, changing their appearance is simply effortless. Moreover, quite a few of them are transformed from the Shaman Ghosts of my Shaman-Ghost Dao, and Shaman Ghosts were originally spiritual treasures unique to my Shaman-Ghost Dao…”
Speaking and speaking, Patriarch Nether Whisper opened the chatterbox.
With his knowledge at Foundation Establishment Perfection, Lu Yang soon thoroughly perfected [Embrace and Guard Mountain], making it truly turn into a presentable large secret realm.
“Do it like this!”
Lu Yang calculated with his fingers, holding the karma steady: “Three days later, Blood Demon Island falls towards the present world, landing on the Star Constellation Sea… The location of this landing point is not too good.”
Have to change one, change to the Emerald Sun Cultivation World!
After all, if not doing so, how could he pit that group of Dao Integration cultivators of the Immortal Alliance, and even Guang Ming, as well as the Dao Sin of Daoist Primordial into it together?
With this thought, brilliance instantly rose from Lu Yang’s fingertips.
[Resolve Suspicion]!
This divine wonder could guide the development of karma in a direction favorable to himself. Usually, there was no place to use it, but now it could let Lu Yang get his wish.
Under the influence of the Divine Ability, the falling direction of [Blood Demon Island] changed immediately. If Perfected One Blood Demon were still alive, perhaps he couldn’t influence it. Pity that now Perfected One Blood Demon was sleeping, and Lu Yang had broken through to the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment. With the enhancement of stature, influencing the landing point was no problem.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang instantly rubbed his fists and wiped his palms.
“If changed to an ordinary secret realm, these people probably wouldn’t be moved.”
“But now with the Heavenly Earth killing intent pushing, as long as I stay here, they will definitely come!”
At that time, not a single one can run away!
