Chapter 404: The Secret of Heaven and Earth
After listening to how [Yama Hall] operated, Lu Yang’s mood could be described as half joy and half worry.
The joy was that he really did have a Golden Nature in hand—Hong Yun’s Golden Nature! Relying on this Golden Nature, he could absolutely use [Yama Hall] to falsely hold the golden stature.
The worry was that he only had one Golden Nature.
And this is only because Hong Yun was a Perfected Lord while alive, so the essence of his Golden Nature was higher.
If it were a Golden Nature condensed by Foundation Establishment Perfection, it would require a full nine streaks to meet the standard for activating [Yama Hall] and falsely holding the golden stature.
This was the reason why nine Foundation Establishment Perfected Ones were needed.
In other words, I only have one chance to falsely hold the golden stature. According to the Patriarch’s deduction, the duration is roughly one incense stick. Fighting against a Perfected Lord is definitely out of the question…
But crushing noobs would definitely be enough.
Aside from this, [Yama Hall] had another wondrous use.
“It can assist in Seeking Golden Core.”
Speaking of this, Patriarch Nether Whisper explained: “Mighty power cannot be generated out of thin air. [Yama Hall] is the same; ultimately, it still has to rely on a Dao Fruit.”
“In short, whichever Dao Fruit the Golden Nature hosting [Yama Hall] points to, [Yama Hall] will ultimately attach itself to that Dao Fruit, thereby borrowing the power of that Dao Fruit. Over time, once the Dao Fruit becomes familiar with you, it will naturally help you truly seek that Dao Fruit.”
Take Patriarch Nether Whisper for example.
If he had successfully established [Yama Hall] back then, [Yama Hall] would have been linked to [Wall-Top Earth], equivalent to a small [Wall-Top Earth].
No wonder that Perfected Lord Chengtian Zhengde of the Sword Pavilion wiped out the Shaman Ghost Dao with a single sword.
After all, this was equivalent to having the power of one’s own Dao Fruit stolen out of thin air. A Dao Fruit being split in half—no one could tolerate that.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang’s expression gradually became intriguing.
Looking at it this way, if I use Hong Yun’s Golden Nature to display [Yama Hall], what I’ll attach to is [Overturned Lamp Flame]. This is going to be very interesting…
After all, as everyone knew, whose exclusive property was [Overturned Lamp Flame]?
Sky-Shrouding.
If I can mobilize the mighty power of [Overturned Lamp Flame], is there a chance to reverse Chen Earth back and directly break Sky-Shrouding’s Five Elements Perfection?
Just imagining the expression on Sky-Shrouding’s face will make made Lu Yang tremble with excitement.
I can’t wait!
As for the shortcoming of [Yama Hall], Lu Yang also thought of a short-term solution for the Golden Nature problem:
If I remember correctly, that Perfected Lord Chengtian Zhengde of the Sword Pavilion should be approaching his limit. It won’t be long before he has to reincarnate…
If he could seize the opportunity, he could completely follow the same pattern and slay a Perfected Lord in reverse again!
At that time, wouldn’t he have another Golden Nature?
“…Let’s move.”
With this thought, Lu Yang no longer hesitated. He stood up directly and looked toward the distant horizon. Having left his native land for more than ten years, it was about time to go back!
That said, Lu Yang did not intend to teleport directly to his sword incarnation’s side via the Myriad Spirits Banner. After all, his sword incarnation was currently being watched very closely by heaven and earth.
Once his main body went over through him, he would immediately be discovered by heaven and earth. That would be too conspicuous and didn’t fit Lu Yang’s character.
“This time, I’m going through proper channels!”
Enter the realm from the Outer Heaven Light Sea!
This way, he could disguise himself as a cultivator from the outer heavens so he wouldn’t be targeted by heaven and earth. In a sense, he would even be the type welcomed by heaven and earth.
This time, I’m going to make a big move!
Since he could only falsely hold the golden stature once, he had to use it where it counted most. If he didn’t get the maximum benefit in one breath, all the grievances he suffered would be in vain!
Boom!
As the thought was born, Lu Yang immediately turned into a streak of extreme heaven grand light. In the blink of an eye, he arrived outside the Seven Luminaries Heaven, then performed hand seals and unfurled the Myriad Spirits Banner.
In an instant, the Seven Luminaries Heaven, which originally looked like a hollow cave situated in the Outer Heaven Light Sea, suddenly began to change. Like an unfurled scroll being slowly rolled up, the hollow originally symbolizing the world realm vanished along with it.
Endless [Two Polarities Birth and Destruction Profound Light] quickly filled it up.
“Phew…”
Lu Yang exhaled deeply. The endless [Two Polarities Birth and Destruction Profound Light] fell on his body, but only emitted a series of crisp crackling sounds like rain hitting banana leaves.
Although there was still damage, it wasn’t much.
Behind Lu Yang’s head, the ring of light formed by the five divine abilities constructed a formless barrier, dissolving all the [Two Polarities Birth and Destruction Profound Light] into nothingness.
“Extreme Yin and Yang…”
Lu Yang reached out and pinched a strand of [Two Polarities Birth and Destruction Profound Light]. Scanning it with his divine sense while simultaneously operating the [Exquisite Heart], he soon gained insight into the essence of this object.
Profound light was merely the appearance.
Essentially, this object was the result of the collision between Yin and Yang Qi. This kind of collision was certainly pure destructive power, but it also harbored a sliver of vitality.
Every minute and second, it is colliding.
In the vast majority of cases, this collision only forms [Two Polarities Birth and Destruction Profound Light]. However, under the enhancement of infinite occurrences, accidents will always happen.
This accident is a world realm!
Taiji generates two polarities, two polarities generate four symbols, four symbols generate eight trigrams, eight trigrams determine heaven and earth… every world realm in the outer heaven sea of light was born because of this!
Thinking of this, Lu Yang’s gaze shifted slightly.
If this is the secret of a world realm’s birth… then what about the Nascent Soul Dao Lord?
As far as he knew, Nascent Soul Dao Lords could also create world realms. Did they use the same method? Were there secrets within that only Dao Lords could master?
The Golden Core dao path held no secrets for Lu Yang anymore.
Perhaps it was as difficult as ascending to heaven, but ultimately there was a path to follow.
Only the Dao Lord… up to now, he hadn’t truly figured out the profound mysteries within. He didn’t even know how a Dao Lord should cultivate or how to break through.
However, this didn’t make Lu Yang feel dejected.
Instead, it increased his fighting spirit:
“One day…!”
While sighing with emotion, the movement under Lu Yang’s feet did not slow down. As light and shadow flickered before his eyes, soon, an abyss came into his view.
“No matter how many times I see it, it feels exaggerated…”
The super-gigantic abyss that almost tore the outer heaven light sea apart—this was the appearance of that ‘wretched place,’ like a bloody maw ready to devour people.
However, this time, Lu Yang’s mood was completely different.
Natural Immortal Spirit, Buddha child Guang Ming.
It’s time to settle old scores!
Thinking of this, Lu Yang immediately shook his sleeves. The divine ability ring of light behind him unfurled abruptly, and with the momentum of a thunderbolt, he crashed into the abyss without holding back!
The moment one enters a world realm, divine sense gets shredded.
Under such circumstances, rarely can anyone see the true appearance of the world realm.
However, the current Lu Yang was no longer what he used to be. With the [Exquisite Heart] operating, his true eye pierced through the fog, enough to see scenes invisible to ordinary people.
“This is…”
In an instant, Lu Yang’s pupils constricted abruptly.
In a fleeting glimpse, he impressively saw the true appearance of this world presented as an “abyss” in the outer heaven light sea.
Jiangdong, Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Jiangxi, Overseas… Damn it, these aren’t five regions.
“They are five world realms!”
Lu Yang clearly saw five super-gigantic world realms colliding and piecing together. Only this formed the magnificent scene like an “abyss” within the sea of light!Translation notes:
Taiji (太極, “Supreme Ultimate”) is the fundamental cosmic principle, the source from which Yin and Yang emerge, representing the unified, undifferentiated potential of the universe before creation.
