Chapter 291: The Secret of Heaven and Earth

After hearing the operating principles of the Yanmo Hall, Lu Yang's mood was a mix of joy and worry.

The joy came from the fact that he truly possessed a strand of Golden Nature in his hand—Hong Yun's Golden Nature! With this single strand of Golden Nature, he could completely use the Yanmo Hall to falsely hold the Golden Position.

The worry was that he only had one strand of Golden Nature.

'Even this is only because Hong Yun was a True Person in life, making the essence of his Golden Nature higher.'

'If it were the Golden Nature condensed by someone at the peak of Foundation Establishment, it would take a full nine strands to reach the standard of mobilizing the Yanmo Hall and falsely holding the Golden Position.'

This was the reason nine experts at the peak of Foundation Establishment were required.

'In other words, I only have one chance to falsely hold the Golden Position; according to the Patriarch's deduction, the duration is roughly the time it takes to burn one stick of incense, so there is definitely no hope of opposing a True Person.'

However, it would certainly be enough to bully the weak.

Besides this, the Yanmo Hall had another wonderful use.

"It can assist in seeking the Gold."

Speaking of this, Patriarch Tingyou explained: "Great power cannot arise from nothing; the Yanmo Hall is no exception; ultimately, it must still rely on a Fruit Position."

"Simply put, whichever Fruit Position the Golden Nature hosting the Yanmo Hall points to, the Yanmo Hall will eventually attach itself to that Fruit Position, thereby borrowing the power of that Fruit Position; over time, as the Fruit Position becomes familiar with you, it will naturally help you truly seek that Fruit Position."

Take Patriarch Tingyou, for example.

Back then, if he had successfully assembled the Yanmo Hall, the hall would have been linked to the Wall Earth, equivalent to a small Wall Earth.

'No wonder that Chengtian Zhengde True Person from the Sword Pavilion destroyed the Witch-Ghost Path with a single sword strike.'

After all, this was equivalent to having the power of one's own Fruit Position stolen out of thin air; if a Fruit Position were halved, no one could bear it.

Thinking of this, Lu Yang's expression gradually became intriguing.

'Looking at it this way, if I use Hong Yun's Golden Nature to activate the Yanmo Hall, it will attach to the Covered Lamp Fire? That would be very interesting indeed.'

After all, as everyone knows, whose exclusive domain is the Covered Lamp Fire?

Angxiao!

'If I can mobilize the great power of the Covered Lamp Fire, is there a chance to reverse the Chen Earth back again and directly break Angxiao's Five Elements Perfection?'

Just imagining Angxiao's expression at that moment made Lu Yang tremble with excitement.

Impatient!

As for the shortcomings of the Yanmo Hall, Lu Yang had already thought of a short-term solution to the Golden Nature problem:

'If I remember correctly, that Chengtian Zhengde True Person from the Sword Pavilion should be nearing the end of his lifespan and will soon reincarnate.'

If he could seize the opportunity, he could completely replicate the method and perform another reverse slaying of a True Person!

At that time, would he not have another strand of Golden Nature?

"... et us move."

With this thought, Lu Yang hesitated no longer; he stood up directly and gazed at the distant horizon. Having left his home and kin for over ten years, it was about time to return!

That said, Lu Yang did not intend to use the Myriad Souls Banner to teleport directly to his Sword Dao avatar's side; after all, the Sword Dao avatar was currently watched very closely by Heaven and Earth. Once his main body traveled through it, Heaven and Earth would discover him immediately, which would be far too conspicuous and did not fit Lu Yang's character.

"This time, I will take the formal channel!"

Enter the realm from the Sea of Light beyond the heavens!

In this way, he could disguise himself as a cultivator from beyond the heavens, avoiding being targeted by Heaven and Earth, and even, in a certain sense, being welcomed by them.

'This time, I am going to pull off something big!'

Since he could only falsely hold the Golden Position once, it had to be used where it mattered most; if he did not secure the maximum benefit in one go, all the grievances he had suffered would be in vain!

"Boom!"

As soon as the thought arose, Lu Yang immediately transformed into a beam of vast light reaching the supreme heavens, arriving above the Seven Luminaries Heaven in the blink of an eye, whereupon he formed hand seals and unfurled the Myriad Souls Banner.

In an instant, the Seven Luminaries Heaven, which originally appeared as a void situated in the Sea of Light beyond the heavens, began to change, like an unrolled scroll being slowly rolled up; the void that previously symbolized the Realm Heaven disappeared accordingly, and the endless Two Origins Life-Death Mysterious Light rapidly filled it.

"Hoo."

Lu Yang exhaled deeply; the endless Two Origins Life-Death Mysterious Light fell upon his body, producing only a crisp cracking sound like rain beating against banana leaves. Although there was still damage, it was not much.

Behind Lu Yang's head, halos formed by five divine abilities constructed an invisible barrier, dissolving all the Two Origins Life-Death Mysterious Light into nothingness.

"Ultimate Yin and Yang."

Lu Yang reached out, pinched a strand of Two Origins Life-Death Mysterious Light, swept it with his spiritual sense, and simultaneously operated the Exquisite Heart, quickly comprehending the true nature of this object.

The Mysterious Light was merely the surface appearance.

In essence, this object was the result of the collision between Yin and Qi; while such a collision was purely a force of destruction, it also hid a sliver of vitality.

'Every minute and every second, it is colliding.'

'In the vast majority of cases, such collisions only form the Two Origins Life-Death Mysterious Light; however, under the blessing of infinite occurrences, accidents will inevitably happen.'

'This accident is the Realm Heaven!'

The Supreme Pole generates the Two Origins, the Two Origins generate the Four Images, the Four Images generate the Eight Trigrams, and the Eight Trigrams determine the Universe... each Realm Heaven in the Sea of Light beyond the heavens was born thus!

Thinking of this, Lu Yang's eyes immediately flickered with movement.

'If this is the secret of the Realm Heaven's birth... then what about the Nascent Soul Dao Lords?'

As far as he knew, Nascent Soul Dao Lords could also create Realm Heavens; did they use the same method? Was there some secret known only to Dao Lords hidden within?

The path of the Golden Core held no more secrets for Lu Yang.

It might be as difficult as ascending to heaven, but there was ultimately a path to follow.

Only regarding the Dao Lords had he yet to truly comprehend the mysteries; he did not even know how a Dao Lord should cultivate or how to break through.

However, this did not make Lu Yang feel depressed.

Instead, it increased his fighting spirit:

"One day...!"

While sighing, Lu Yang did not slow his movements below; as the light and shadow before his eyes flickered, soon a abyss fell into his field of vision.

"No matter how many times I see it, it feels exaggerated..."

A super-massive abyss that nearly tore apart the Sea of Light beyond the heavens; this was the appearance of that 'wretched place', resembling a bloody maw eager to devour people.

However, this time, Lu Yang's mood was completely different.

Heaven and Earth Immortal Spirit, Buddhist Son Guangming.

It is time we settled old scores!

Thinking of this, Lu Yang immediately shook his sleeve; the divine ability halos behind him suddenly expanded and, with the speed of lightning, crashed into the abyss without any reservation!

The moment one entered the Realm Heaven, spiritual sense would be shredded.

Under such circumstances, few people could see the true appearance of the Realm Heaven.

However, the Lu Yang of today was no longer comparable to the past; with the Exquisite Heart operating and his Dharma Eye piercing through illusions, he was capable of seeing sights invisible to ordinary people.

"This is..."

In an instant, Lu Yang's pupils contracted sharply.

In a fleeting glimpse, he clearly saw what the true appearance of this world, which presented itself as an 'abyss' in the Sea of Light beyond the heavens, actually was.

'Jiangdong, Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Jiangxi, Overseas... Damn it, these are not five places.'

"They are five Realm Heavens!"

Lu Yang clearly saw that five super-massive Realm Heavens collided and spliced together, thus forming the magnificent spectacle of an 'abyss' within the Sea of Light beyond the heavens!
