Chapter 226: Heavenly Demon Enters the World

Inside the quiet chamber, Lu Yang wore a look of curiosity as he looked the immortal fetus clone up and down, a clone that had taken three months to nurture and refine using the 【Nine-Child Mother Heavenly Demon Zhu Xian Sword】.

"Not bad, not bad!"

Lu Yang nodded in satisfaction and slowly circulated his magic power; almost simultaneously, the immortal fetus clone before him opened its eyes, and their gazes met.

A wonderful sensation instantly arose in Lu Yang's spiritual sea; the originally unified perspective suddenly split, allowing him to survey the surrounding environment simultaneously from the perspectives of both the immortal fetus clone and his main body. This situation occurred because he had not injected his own spiritual sense into the immortal fetus clone.

Had he injected his spiritual sense, everything could have been left to that strand of spiritual sense to drive.

Lu Yang would only need to receive information transmitted by the spiritual sense when necessary, without having to deal with the current trouble of one person manipulating both sides simultaneously.

However, Lu Yang did not do this.

The reason was simple: splitting one's spiritual sense was too dangerous! One slight carelessness could cause the clone to develop self-awareness, something Lu Yang could not tolerate.

"It is better for me to operate it personally!"

Although this meant his main body would have to enter secluded cultivation whenever he acted through the clone, he had no intention of wandering around recklessly anyway.

"But just in case..."

Thinking this, Lu Yang formed a hand seal with one hand and began inscribing patterns onto the immortal fetus clone, revealing layer upon layer of bright, glaring restrictions!

Without exception, all these restrictions were designed for self-detonation, and moreover, they were crafted without any consideration for a method to remove them, ensuring that the moment Lu Yang willed it, the immortal fetus clone would instantly turn to ash, leaving not even a scrap of flesh behind; this was merely an extra precaution.

After completing all this, Lu Yang took out another item.

It was a strand of earth-yellow qi; merely holding it in his hands evoked an indescribable image of heaviness, as if holding a towering mountain.

Qi of the Earth Veins!

This had been given to him by the Boy of Many Treasures back in the 【Qing Kingdom】; he had kept it treasured ever since, planning to use it at a critical moment to pull a massive trick on his enemies.

"Using it right now is perfectly timely!"

Lu Yang placed the Qi of the Earth Veins in his palm, then gathered magic power between his lips and teeth and blew gently; the Qi of the Earth Veins immediately scattered and merged into the immortal fetus clone.

"After integrating this strand of Qi of the Earth Veins, the current immortal fetus clone is now a self-detonating truck; no matter who plots against me and destroys my immortal fetus clone, they will be judged by heaven and earth afterward! Yet, thanks to the calamity-avoiding effect of the immortal fetus clone, I myself will not be tainted by the slightest karma."

A perfect combination!

Immediately after, Lu Yang pondered for a moment, handed the 【Formless Sword】 to the immortal fetus clone, and then successively took out several high-grade magic treasures from his person.

【Hundred-Pacification Danger-Subduing Profound Cloak】.

【Purple Micro Official's Bestowed Supreme Golden Seal】.

【Jingping Clearing Miasma Precious Pagoda】.

Plus the numerous magic treasures and Dharma instruments used to construct the 【River of Ten Thousand Treasures】.

Aside from the Arbi Sword, the Myriad Souls Banner, the Instrument of Ultimate Heaven, and the Imperial Palace Golden Seal Tushita True Edict—these four supreme treasures—Lu Yang gave everything else to the immortal fetus clone.

"Now it looks somewhat presentable."

Lu Yang smiled slightly, then circulated his magic power to begin interacting with the immortal fetus clone; soon, the brilliant colors of the divine abilities on his own body began to dissipate one by one.

Immediately after, the same brilliant colors spread from around the immortal fetus clone, suddenly boosting the clone's cultivation base to the Mid Stage of Foundation Establishment; even the blessing of the 【Imperial Palace Golden Seal Tushita True Edict】 was not omitted, so that at a glance, he appeared to be a True Person of perfect Mid Stage cultivation!

"Pity that once I sever the connection, he will immediately become a mortal."

"If he could maintain the combat power of the Mid Stage of Foundation Establishment without my blessing, that would be a truly formidable technique, equivalent to creating a True Person out of thin air."

But for now, this was sufficient.

Lu Yang nodded, decided not to go out himself, and simply sat cross-legged on the cushion with his main body, while the immortal fetus clone stretched slightly in place before lifting its head and walking out.

"Yuan Tu has made this concubine wait for quite some time!"

At the Sacred Fire Cliff, True Person Miaoyin watched the "Lu Yang" descending on fleeing light, her delicate brows slightly furrowed; she felt something was amiss, yet she could not pinpoint what was wrong.

"Keeping the Lady waiting for so long."

Lu Yang chuckled lightly, then cupped his fists and said, "After all, the region beyond the heavens is fraught with danger; this humble one had to make extra preparations; I hope the Lady will not take offense."

"Where would such words come from? How could this concubine blame you?" True Person Miaoyin covered her mouth with a light laugh, temporarily suppressing the doubts in her heart, and instead reminded him, "The 【Ten Thousand Martial Worlds】 we are heading to has already borne a fruit of position, and it is very sensitive; the moment we enter the realm, we will immediately become the target of all arrows."

"So that is how it is."

Lu Yang nodded and asked curiously, "In that case, how should we enter the realm? Must we abandon our cultivation and start from scratch within the 【Ten Thousand Martial Worlds】?"

"How could that be possible!"

True Person Miaoyin laughed helplessly: "We enter the realm to gather qi, to strip away the essence of heaven and earth to increase our Dao progress; abandoning our cultivation would be putting the cart before the horse, would it not?"

"Naturally, we enter in our peak state!"

Lu Yang immediately understood; so-called 【Qi Gathering】 was essentially robbery in nature, and since he was coming to rob, how could he possibly abide by the rules within the realm of heaven?

"However, Fellow Daoist must not be careless; there are also formidable figures within the 【Ten Thousand Martial Worlds】."

Hearing this, Lu Yang became instantly curious: "Oh? I wonder what kind of divine marvels are cultivated in that 【Ten Thousand Martial Worlds】? Could there be cultivators comparable to Great True Persons?"

"Naturally, there are."

True Person Miaoyin nodded, then shook her head: "However, the fruit of position in the 【Ten Thousand Martial Worlds】 was born only recently; under normal circumstances, it would not allow a Great True Person to emerge; only after we enter will it, out of self-preservation, give rise to a Great True Person to attempt to surround and exterminate us."

"... h?"

True Person Miaoyin's words revealed a matter of great concern to Lu Yang: a newly born fruit of position does not allow a Great True Person to emerge?

Why?

While Lu Yang pondered, he had already followed True Person Miaoyin to the front of a towering great hall, where dense and complex array patterns inside the hall dazzled the eye.

"This place is called the 【Hall of Penetrating Heaven】."

True Person Miaoyin explained, "Like the Dharma Refining Secret Realm, it was left behind by the Patriarch; it is a high-grade true treasure, and we use this treasure to travel to the heavens beyond the heavens."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang's expression immediately turned solemn.

A Nascent Soul supreme treasure!

Immediately after, True Person Miaoyin stood inside the 【Hall of Penetrating Heaven】, cupped her fists in salute, and said, "Lord Penetrating Heaven, we hope you will send us on a journey to the 【Ten Thousand Martial Worlds】."

The next second, brilliant light manifested within the hall.

Amidst the brilliant light, a figure skipped out; it was a handsome Daoist child, delicate and cute, wearing a loose Daoist robe.

Holding paper and brush in hand, his eyes flowed with shimmering starlight containing myriad phenomena, while drool still lingered at the corner of his mouth, as if he had just been sound asleep and was suddenly startled awake; he quickly wiped the corner of his mouth, then clasped his hands behind his back and walked with an air of seniority to stand before True Person Miaoyin and Lu Yang.

"So it is you two who disturbed this Old Ancestor's secluded cultivation?"

The Daoist child said arrogantly, holding paper and brush in one hand while extending his other chubby little hand and shaking it vigorously at the two.

What is this for?

Lu Yang was stunned until he saw True Person Miaoyin skillfully take out a magic treasure and hand it over; only then did he suddenly realize... this was a demand for a bribe!

Damn it, truly worthy of the Holy Sect!

Lu Yang cursed inwardly but remained outwardly calm; he similarly presented a cute-looking magic treasure, which immediately made the Daoist child beam with joy.

"Good, good, good! Not bad, very sensible!"

"The 【Ten Thousand Martial Worlds】, correct? Let this Old Ancestor see... hmm, you cultivate the 'Heavenly Dry Unity Controlling All Heavens Divine Art'; indeed, it is this realm of heaven."

Having spoken, the Daoist child waved his large hand.

The next second, Lu Yang suddenly felt the world spinning and the earth turning, as if placed in void darkness; his consciousness was instantly lifted high into the sky, only to plummet down again!

"Boom!"
