Chapter 311: Who the Hell Can Stop Him?
“Young Master… Young Master, wake up…”
A voice came from beside his ear. Lu Yang opened his eyes, only to see a woman in a red dress with a cinnabar mark on her brow, possessing peerless beauty.
Looking around.
He saw pearl curtains and embroidered screens, painted beams and carved eaves. Light danced on vermilion doors and gold-paved floors; snow illuminated jade windows, turning the room into a palace of jade. A fragrant scent assailed his nose, making Lu Yang intoxicated.
But in the next second, memories that didn’t exist surfaced in his mind:
“Perfected One Primordial was at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, in seclusion attempting to break through to Foundation Establishment, but fell victim to the Saint Sect’s scheme. They found his place of seclusion and destroyed his True Qi foundation.”
“The result was that he had to establish his foundation with Rank 4 True Qi, cutting off his path of ascent.”
“Perfected One Primordial sought Void Attainment. On one hand, it was naturally because this act benefited heaven and earth. On the other hand, it was probably because his orthodox path was already hopeless…”
“This is the First Tribulation!”
Only then did Lu Yang come to his senses and look around. His current situation was the same as Perfected One Primordial’s back then, including the intelligence he possessed.
What a Wu You Heaven…
Lu Yang was shocked. If he wasn’t controlling the clone with [Marionette] at this moment, he probably wouldn’t be able to distinguish the truth from falsehood in Wu You Heaven.
Everything he saw, heard, and smelled, including his own body—all perceptions were incredibly real. Even his cultivation was the same; he was no longer at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment but at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. Clearly, Wu You Heaven required him to break the situation with the identity of Perfected One Primordial.
Any means beyond this identity were forbidden.
…In time, Wu You Heaven will surely expand massively, becoming a Dao Fruit that cultivators all over the world flock to. Even Perfected Lords won’t be able to stop it.
Lu Yang realized the terror of Wu You Heaven almost instantly.
This was the First Tribulation, so he could only replace Perfected One Primordial at the level of Great Perfection of Qi Refining. But as time passed, Perfected One Primordial would improve!
Once Perfected One Primordial’s cultivation exceeds the cultivation of the person breaking the tribulation, that person can experience higher-level cultivation in advance!
More importantly, Seeking Golden Core!
The final act of Perfected One Primordial was Seeking Golden Core. If this is also one of the tribulations, it’s equivalent to giving Foundation Establishment Perfected Ones a trial opportunity to simulate Seeking Golden Core!
Just this point alone was enough to attract all Foundation Establishment Perfected Ones.
Besides, according to Perfected One Primordial, passing each tribulation in Wu You Heaven would grant a corresponding divine ability. This was an immense temptation.
And people wouldn’t die in Wu You Heaven.
Wu You Heaven is an illusory Dao Fruit. Flesh and blood bodies cannot enter, nor can souls and divine thoughts. Only consciousness can enter.
Therefore, even if a cultivator failed to break the tribulation and died in Wu You Heaven, at most they would be groggy for a few days and lose some merit and destiny. There would be no worry for their life. Comparing the two, the gains of Wu You Heaven far outweighed the risks. How could it not be tempting?
Of course, it wasn’t without drawbacks.
The flow of time inside Wu You Heaven was consistent with the outside world. After a cultivator entered, their main body would inevitably be in a defenseless state.
But as long as I only enter with the clone controlled by [Marionette], I can avoid this problem by cutting the connection when necessary.
Thinking this, Lu Yang got off the bed and glanced at the woman beside him. This woman didn’t exist in Perfected One Primordial’s memories.
Even this place didn’t exist.
In his memory, Perfected One Primordial was in seclusion preparing for Foundation Establishment. As a result, he suffered Qi Deviation. When he closed and opened his eyes again, he found himself in this place.
However, Perfected One Primordial didn’t recognize it, but Lu Yang did.
“The True Qi cultivated by Perfected One Primordial originally established the Empty Mystic Qi Sea Dao Foundation. But due to the Saint Sect’s plot, he only established the Qi Sea Dao Foundation in the end.”
Why was this so?
Looking throughout the Saint Sect, what method could downgrade originally Rank 3 True Qi out of thin air, causing even the Dao Foundation to become incomplete?
[Heaven-Mending True Scripture]!
Lu Yang knew this Rank 3 True Art of the Saint Sect like the back of his hand and had rich practical experience. Naturally, he recognized it at a glance.
“[Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Dragon-Tiger Intersection Grand Formation], transmitted from the [Heaven-Mending True Scripture]. Set up jointly by one hundred and eight Celestial Maidens, each holding a pipa or guqin, engaging in acts of pleasure. Finally, it makes people lose their minds and emotions, causing their True Qi grade to plummet…”
This was a superior formation.
Once deployed, besides the one hundred and eight Celestial Maidens, there was a distinction between the formation master and those entering the formation. In reality, the formation master plundered those who entered.
The result was that the True Qi grade of those entering the formation plummeted.
The formation master, on the other hand, reaped all the benefits, significantly increasing their True Qi grade.
Fortunately, Lu Yang understood this quite well.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang looked around. What met his eyes was a city of women. Orioles and swallows shuttled through the city, each with their own unique beauty and posture.
But Lu Yang knew clearly that this was just an illusion.
Under the [Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Dragon-Tiger Intersection Grand Formation], only the women were real. All other scenes were merely false images used to confuse the senses with sound and color.
If the formation operated naturally, Lu Yang would encounter countless confidantes in this city. Every encounter would have a twisty story, and every story would make one pledge life and death. Finally, he would gradually sink, forgetting the past, until he became scum.
To break this formation, there were roughly three methods.
Either pass through a bush of flowers without a leaf touching the body. As long as one could guard their essence, energy, and spirit without losing their chastity, they wouldn’t be affected by the formation’s illusion and could walk out calmly.
Or, kill his way out.
With a heart like iron and stone, start killing, causing a storm of blood, until the foundation of the formation collapsed.
However, Lu Yang chose neither of these two. After all, he was now inheriting the identity of “Perfected One Primordial,” so many methods couldn’t be used.
For example, the [Heaven-Mending True Scripture].
The best method to deal with this formation was the [Heaven-Mending True Scripture]. As long as Lu Yang could use it, a mere formation would naturally break in an instant.
However, under the restrictions of Wu You Heaven’s rules, he couldn’t use it.
Similarly, whether guarding his mind or killing his way out under the [Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Dragon-Tiger Intersection Grand Formation] was somewhat difficult for him currently.
So he could only choose the third method.
The only plan now is to bite the bullet and go for it!
With this thought, Lu Yang directly activated his strengthened state and charged boldly into the formation, startling the Celestial Maidens setting up the formation.
But soon, the Celestial Maidens calmed down.
Seeking death!
After all, there were a full one hundred and eight of them. With the formation’s boost and taking turns, who under Foundation Establishment could stop them?
However, they soon discovered something was wrong.
Lu Yang actually fought more bravely as the battle went on!
One, two, ten, twenty… No matter how many Celestial Maidens attacked, he took them down easily!
In the end, the remaining awake Celestial Maidens looked at Lu Yang and dared not advance further.
In their eyes, was Lu Yang still prey? He was clearly a giant beast! Wherever he passed, screams were incessant!
Who the hell can stop him?
On the other side, Lu Yang’s reaction was calm, his eyes even containing a hint of disdain: “Is that it?”
I haven’t even used my full strength yet, and you’ve all fallen?
What tribulation? In Lu Yang’s view, the reason Perfected One Primordial fell for this and had his True Qi grade beaten down was due to only one reason:
Lack of ability!
