Chapter 205: Seeking Gold from Rebirth, Great Battle Imminent!

"A genius born of heaven, but what use is he to me?"

After reviewing the memories regarding the Mahayana First Grade True Qi, Lu Yang gave his own assessment, feeling quite dejected for a moment, as if he had rejoiced in vain.

Without a doubt, the Innate True Person was indeed a genius rarely seen in the world.

Before his death, he had even conducted verification, convinced that the method he used to cultivate would inevitably produce the ultimate True Qi, and that no one could possibly surpass it.

"Isn't that stating the obvious? You are using the Golden Nature to refine Qi."

What is the Golden Nature?

It is a rare treasure that only a Great True Person with a perfected Foundation Establishment can extract from their soul; accumulated over days and months, it finally condenses, and it is of great use even to True Lords!

You use this to refine Qi?

"No wonder True Lord Fei Xue had no interest in this Innate Dao Sin, nor cared about the First Grade True Qi; he likely had already soul-searched and grasped all the details within."

Thinking of this, Lu Yang sighed again.

Because to be honest, if the Golden Nature were the only obstacle, he actually had a solution, or rather, the Innate True Person had already left behind a solution.

"According to the Innate True Person's arrangement, I only need to bring the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner, which holds his karmic residue, to the Biyang Cultivation World, then use the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner to guide the Dao Sin out; the Dao Sin will have no choice but to become my Banner Spirit, at which point I can use its Golden Nature to cultivate the Mahayana First Grade True Qi."

The key to this lies in the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner.

However, it is not the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner in Lu Yang's hand that has been whitewashed by the Hundred Lives Book, but the one in Liu Xin's hand that still holds the Innate True Person's karma.

However, these are not problems.

With the 【Hundred Lives Book】 present, Lu Yang can completely restart to retrieve the original Ten Thousand Spirits Banner, and can even repeatedly restart to take the Golden Nature from the Dao Sin!

Using the Golden Nature to refine Qi, using the Golden Nature for Foundation Establishment, and even using the Golden Nature to refine supernatural powers... he can do all of these!

It is merely a matter of restarting a few more times.

"The problem lies in... the Empty Verification!"

Lu Yang's gaze grew heavy; in the Innate True Person's description, only this "Empty Verification" was shrouded in mist, obviously the Innate True Person himself had not figured it out either.

Empty Verification, how to verify it? Where is the method?

There is nothing at all!

This single point basically cuts off the path to the so-called Mahayana First Grade True Qi; without a fruit position, one cannot verify the Jin Dan, so what use is a strong Foundation Establishment?

"So frustrating."

Lu Yang pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision: "At this point, it seems I can only use my world-shocking wisdom to complete the Innate True Person's technique!"

Then he took out the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner.

"Ancestor Ting You!"

At Lu Yang's call, Ancestor Ting You walked out leisurely; since the 【Cheng Tian Zheng De True Lord】 of the Yushu Jiange had perished, his mood had been very good recently.

"What is it?"

Without a second word, Lu Yang packaged the contents of the Mahayana First Grade True Qi and sent it over: "Disciple has newly obtained a technique; it is said that no one under heaven can understand it."

"Disciple views it as if viewing a heavenly book, so I wish to ask Ancestor to take a look."

"Hehe, a crude attempt at provocation." Hearing this, Ancestor Ting You smiled slightly: "How could there be a technique that no one can understand in the world? Your comprehension is insufficient!"

Taking the divine sense Lu Yang handed over, Ancestor Ting You fixed his gaze and looked.

"Hmm?"

Ancestor Ting You's expression was initially quite relaxed, but as he delved deeper, his eyebrows gradually furrowed, and finally he slowly closed his eyes.

"How is it, Ancestor?" Lu Yang asked curiously.

"First, I have not failed to understand it."

Ancestor Ting You said calmly: "Mainly, the author of this technique is far too audacious, and his train of thought is so unique that it exceeds the scope of normal people."

"I need to study it."

Having finished speaking, Ancestor Ting You turned and instantly vanished inside the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner, obviously going into seclusion; seeing this, Lu Yang likewise revealed a look of joy.

Excellent! My world-shocking wisdom has begun to take effect!

Regarding his peerless talent, Lu Yang was still very confident; perhaps there really is hope of finding a method to solve the "Empty Verification" problem.

Thinking of this, Lu Yang felt relieved.

Immediately after, he took out another jade slip; since he rarely went to the Manifested Dharma Pavilion, a sacred ground of the Holy Sect, he certainly could not come out having only taken one Dao technique.

However, although that is the case, since his 【Ten Thousand Chariots Dragon-Driving Foundation】 is truly too rare, and the corresponding 【City Wall Earth】 is not under the Holy Sect's control, there was no Dao technique in the Manifested Dharma Pavilion that matched him one hundred percent; after picking and choosing, he selected a technique that was merely passable.

"【Imperial Mountain-Relocation Righteous Dharma】."

This was clearly a Wu Earth Dao technique, boasting the ability to move mountains and shift peaks, somewhat related to 【Bao Shou Shan】, and when cast, it felt as if it were used with the ease of one's own arm.

More importantly, this supernatural power suited Lu Yang's preferences very well.

As the name suggests, this supernatural power can move mountains and rivers, shifting peaks from a thousand li away into the void, and then using the mountains to suppress one's own enemies.

It sounds like nothing special.

After all, a single mountain is nothing to a Foundation Establishment True Person; a mere wave of the sleeve can easily resolve it, or at the very least, one can escape from it.

However, the 【Imperial Mountain-Relocation Righteous Dharma】 is different.

This Dao technique shares a similar effect with 【Bao Shou Shan】, emphasizing the "Mountain on the Body" and the "Mountain in the Heart"; when casting the spell, they often proceed together.

Casting the spell has three steps, divided into 【Chanting the Spell】, 【Forming the Hand Seal】, and 【Pointing at the Mystery】; although it seems like there are many steps, there is actually another mystery; if an enemy hears the sound of his chanting, they immediately bear the weight of mountains, their dharma body unable to move; if they see his hand seal movements, they immediately bear the weight of great peaks in their hearts, their thoughts unable to turn.

If finally struck by his pointing finger.

Good heavens, that would be the collapse of the dharma body, turning into soil, oneself becoming a great mountain crashing down to the ground, instantly forming a mysterious connection with the earth veins below.

In this case, do you still want to escape?

It is not impossible; breaking the connection with the earth veins allows one to get out, but the cost is causing some damage to the earth veins, and one may have to endure a bit of heavenly punishment.

Therefore, the evaluation of this Dao technique in the Manifested Dharma Pavilion is "insidious and disgusting"; the fact that even Holy Sect True Persons could make such an evaluation shows just how insidious it is.

"Such a Dao technique is meant to be used by me!"

With the great battle approaching, Lu Yang dared not be the slightest bit negligent; after leaving the Manifestation Dharma Pavilion, he immediately went to the Heaven-Mending Peak and devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation.

Three days later.

Lu Yang was sitting upright on a brocade bed in Lady Ruoxiang's private chamber, discussing the 【Imperial Mountain-Shifting Righteous Dharma】 with Lady Ruoxiang, when he suddenly looked up at the sky.

He saw a ray of spiritual light flying swiftly toward them; it was unmistakably a flying letter.

The letter contained only a few brief lines:

【At the hour of Zi today, I shall depart through reincarnation. I earnestly hope you succeed; the day you prove the Golden Core and ascend to the throne shall be the day I retrieve the "City-Top Earth" for you and open the path of the Dao.】

In an instant, Lu Yang's expression became utterly solemn.

The big one is coming!

Lu Yang raised his head to gaze at the sky; the Sky-Seeking Instrument between his brows began to turn, yet the great web of cause and effect, which had previously been clearly distinct under the light of the Bing Fire, was now shrouded in darkness.

A True Lord is concealing the cause and effect!

Almost simultaneously, within and outside the Holy Sect, the Jiangdong Court of the Dao, the Jiangxi Pure Land, and the Jiangnan Yushu Jiange, nearly all reacted; some mysterious divine sense was interacting with heaven and earth.

"Master Chongguang is seeking the Golden Core?"

"Daoist Hong Yun is dead; it is time for him to seek it."

"Can he succeed?"

"He must not be allowed to succeed!"

"No need to concern ourselves with him."

Under the gaze of numerous divine senses, midnight, the hour of Zi, arrived quickly. Inside the main hall of the Holy Fire Cliff, True Person Chongguang sat quietly, silently calculating something with his fingers.

A moment later, he suddenly opened his eyes.

"Hehe."

With a light chuckle, the figure of True Person Chongguang shattered and vanished silently in place, just like a bubble bursting; his disappearance was like a pebble dropped into a calm lake, instantly stirring up ripples and causing all those who were watching him with intent to feel a sudden resonance.

True Person Chongguang has already reincarnated.

His aim is to seek the Golden Core!
