Chapter 269: Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain, Fortune and Misfortune Are Intertwined

The search for Heavenly Spirit and Earthly Fiend is the most mysterious part of a Foundation Establishment Perfected One’s breakthrough. Firstly, it involves luck; secondly, it tests the cultivator’s Dao comprehension.

Many Perfected Ones, even if their luck arrives, if their Dao comprehension is insufficient and their grasp of karma is not deep, can only follow the guidance of luck and act on intuition. In the end, they often mess it up. “If Heaven gives and you do not take, you will instead suffer the consequences.” The result is consuming luck but failing to obtain the desired Heavenly Spirit and Earthly Fiend.

However, it is different for those with high Dao comprehension.

Perfected Ones with profound Dao comprehension can completely deduce karma along with luck, calculating the method to obtain Heavenly Spirit and Earthly Fiend clearly, avoiding wrong paths.

Lu Yang’s Dao comprehension was undoubtedly insufficient.

After all, his current Dao comprehension was supplemented by medicinal pills. Although it reached the standard, it wasn’t outstanding, and his means of deducing heavenly secrets weren’t high enough.

“Fortunately, I still have the [Investigating Heaven Sphere].”

Lu Yang opened the true eye between his eyebrows. The [Investigating Heaven Sphere] emitted Bing Fire light, illuminating the six directions, revealing the karma that was originally somewhat misty to him.

The help of this Supreme Treasure of Heavenly Secrets to Lu Yang was significant. Although it wasn’t a treasure for fighting, Lu Yang relied almost entirely on its deduction ability to turn danger into safety several times. Otherwise, just the hurdle of Arhat Fu Long would have caused him to suffer losses several times, not to mention the Peak Master of Mending Heaven Peak.

Soon, a look of realization appeared on Lu Yang’s face—

“So that’s how it is. My opportunity this time is a mountain formed by Heavenly Spirit and Earthly Fiend named [Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain]! It happens to be on the verge of the Four Seas Sect’s jurisdiction.”

“I just need to find it and refine it.”

Thinking of this, Lu Yang opened his palm. The [Imperial Palace Golden Seal Script Tushita True Edict] operated spontaneously, evolving the appearance of the next Innate Divine Ability for him.

“[Magnetic Disjunction].”

“That [Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain] overseas corresponds exactly to this Divine Ability. The calculation should be correct… But this mountain won’t be easy to refine.”

Just like seeking [Wu Earth] previously.

Back in the Emerald Sun Cultivation World, [Wu Earth] had turned into a conceptual existence that couldn’t be taken without special means. It was the same this time.

“This mountain has long been internally decided by the Four Seas Sect. A Dragon King has let out word to wait for this [Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain] to grow completely, then refine it into a superior Spirit Treasure. If I rashly go to take it, I will inevitably clash with the Four Seas Sect. This is the tribulation… If I cannot break through the tribulation, I cannot obtain the opportunity!”

But how to break the tribulation?

Openly robbing it certainly wouldn’t work. The only way was to find a way to conceal his aura first, sneak in secretly, and refine the [Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain]. Only then would there be a chance.

But how to sneak in?

Thinking of this, Lu Yang looked at the formation pill sealing Sui Ying again. In an instant, a flash of inspiration crossed his mind, and he couldn’t help clapping his hands and laughing—

“Karma is truly marvelous!”

He happened to have a Dragon King. If he sacrificed and refined this Dragon King completely into his dharma body, he could use the profound mystery of [Myriad Phenomena] to create a dragon-attribute aura!

The dharma body was profound. [Myriad Phenomena] could smelt external objects and encompass everything. Whatever was refined, it could naturally transform into the aura appearance of that object. So as long as he refined a Dragon King, he could disguise himself as a pure-blooded descendant of a Dragon King, thereby infiltrating the [Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain]!

With this thought, he hesitated no more.

Crack!

Lu Yang squeezed his five fingers, instantly crushing the formation pill in his hand. inside the array, Sui Ying died on the spot without even having time to hum a sound.

Only then did he release his fingers. Endless waterfalls of blood rolled out from his palm. Every drop of blood was as heavy as a mountain, flowing with brilliant golden light. This was the blood descendant of a Dragon Lord. Even a single drop possessed divine wonders. Besides that, there were also broken scales, claws, and horns mixed in.

All of these were poured onto the [Qian Heaven All-Governing Myriad Phenomena Dharma Body].

Under the influence of dragon blood, the aura of this Dharma Body became increasingly terrifying. At some point, a coiled small dragon appeared on its six arms.

In the next second, the dharma body transformed.

In the blink an eye, the three-headed, six-armed, green-faced, fanged appearance was gone. Instead, a true dragon landed in the center, breathing out billowing clouds!

“Good, good, good!”

Lu Yang sensed the change in the dharma body’s aura and smiled with satisfaction. With the boost of this dharma body, disguising as a Dragon King would definitely be more than enough.

“However, there are also drawbacks.”

“After all, I killed Sui Ying and used this to infiltrate the [Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain]. Once exposed, new hatred and old grudges will inevitably make the tribulation arrive more fiercely.”

Lu Yang calculated on his fingers, assisted by the [Investigating Heaven Sphere]:

“To refine the [Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain]… it requires at least forty-nine days. And it’s impossible to completely deceive the Four Seas Sect. It will inevitably erupt in the last seven days.”

This couldn’t be avoided.

“Fine, it’s just a matter of each relying on their own abilities.”

Lu Yang looked calm. With his current means, as long as Great Perfected Ones and Perfected Lords didn’t act, there weren’t actually many people at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment who could fight him.

“Perfected Lords won’t act… As for Great Perfected Ones, if I break through, I might be able to fight.”

After all, with the [Imperial Palace Golden Seal Script Tushita True Edict], once he reached the Perfection of the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, he could immediately borrow a third Innate Divine Ability, making him no different from a Great Perfected One!

Even lacking that step of qualitative change, if he couldn’t win, escaping should still be no problem.

“Its a pity that the main body must act; the incarnation can’t do it.”

After all, it concerned the Dao path. The incarnation could help do things, but it couldn’t help cultivate. Refining the [Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain] could only be done by the main body.

As for that [Perfected Lord Sky-Shrouding]?

Honestly speaking, Lu Yang was still scared to death, fearing the other party would use the Barrier of Knowledge to follow him unknowingly again. But thinking about it, he felt relieved.

Anyway, the [Book of Hundred Lifetimes] only takes effect after I die. Besides that, I don’t have anything on me that would make a Late Stage Golden Core Great Perfected Lord covet. Even if that treacherous Sky-Shrouding is really squatting outside the Heaven-Connecting Cloud Sea waiting for me… I accept it. The Great Dao is ahead; I can’t just not walk it!

Moreover, the other party might not necessarily still follow him.

If he was afraid of this and that, what Dao was he cultivating? Better go home and raise pigs!

Besides, I have a cheat!

Overseas, Four Seas Sect.

As the sole overlord overseas, the islands where the Four Seas Sect was located were incredibly broad, separated into four directions. The East was exactly where the Dragon Palace, the Dragon Lord’s residence, was located.

At this moment, in the deepest part of the Dragon Palace.

A mass of indescribable clouds coiled within the palace hall. Golden snakes danced wildly inside, flashing from time to time. Among them, a majestic black shadow shuttled faintly.

Suddenly, the black shadow’s movement stagnated.

“Hmm?”

Accompanied by a soft exclamation, the clouds were propped open by raging fire, revealing a pair of golden eyes as large as mountains. The low voice was like rolling thunder in the sky—

“Who dares to kill my descendant?”

The Dragon Lord’s emotions were very stable; he didn’t get angry. After all, he had too many offspring. One less or two less wasn’t important at all, and he never took it to heart.

However, killing his offspring was ultimately a slap to his face.

If he didn’t react to this, everyone might follow suit in the future, which would be truly troublesome. So he had made up his mind to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys!

Moreover, the one who died in the bloodline connection was a Dragon King, which also made him somewhat curious. He immediately divided his divine sense, sensed the heavenly secrets, and calculated silently. After a while, the karma thread extended from overseas all the way to the inland, finally landing in a place that made him silent.

Jiangbei, Heaven-Connecting Cloud Sea, Primordial Saint Sect.

“Forget it, I won’t haggle with a junior.”

Just a Dragon King; it actually wasn’t very important. At worst, he would work a bit harder and birth a few more next year; he could always cultivate another one.

However, the Dragon Lord soon narrowed those golden eyes.

“No… Tribulation entangles, fortune and misfortune are intertwined. This person has karma with my blood descendant as well?”

“[Essence Magnetism Divine Mountain]?”
