Chapter 373: The Secrets of Heaven and Earth

After hearing the operating principle of the 【Yanmo Hall】, Lu Yang's mood was half joy and half worry.

The joy was that he truly possessed a Jin Dan in his hand, Daoist Hong Yun's Jin Dan! With this single Jin Dan, he could completely use the 【Yanmo Hall】 to falsely hold the Golden Seat.

The worry was that he only had one Jin Dan.

'Even this is because Daoist Hong Yun was a True Lord in life, so the essence of his Jin Dan is higher.'

'If it were a Jin Dan condensed from a Foundation Establishment peak, it would take a full nine to meet the standard of activating the 【Yanmo Hall】 and falsely holding the Golden Seat.'

This is the reason nine Foundation Establishment peaks are required.

'In other words, I only have one chance to falsely hold the Golden Seat; according to the Ancestor's divination, the time is roughly one stick of incense. Fighting a True Lord is definitely out of the question.'

But it is certainly enough to bully the weak.

Besides this, the 【Yanmo Hall】 has another wonderful use.

'It can assist in seeking the Golden Seat.'

Speaking of this, Ancestor Tingyou explained: 'Great power cannot be born from nothing; the 【Yanmo Hall】 is no different. In the end, it must rely on a Fruit Seat.'

'Simply put, whichever Fruit Seat the Jin Dan presiding over the 【Yanmo Hall】 points to, the 【Yanmo Hall】 will eventually attach itself to that Fruit Seat, thereby borrowing the power of that Fruit Seat. Over time, as the Fruit Seat becomes familiar with you, it will naturally help you truly seek that Fruit Seat.'

For example, Ancestor Tingyou.

Back then, if he had successfully established the 【Yanmo Hall】, the 【Yanmo Hall】 would have been linked to the 【Wall Soil】, equivalent to a small 【Wall Soil】.

'No wonder the 【Chengtian Zhengde True Lord】 of the Yushu Jiange wiped out the Wraith Ghost Dao with a single sword strike.'

After all, this is equivalent to having the power of one's own Fruit Seat stolen out of thin air; with a Fruit Seat split in half, who could possibly endure it?

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

'So it seems, if I use Daoist Hong Yun's Jin Dan to cast the 【Yanmo Hall】, it will attach to the 【Extinguished Fu Fu Fu Deng Huo】? This is quite interesting.'

After all, as everyone knows, whose exclusive domain is the 【Extinguished Fu Fu Fu Deng Huo】?

【Ang Xiao】!

'If I can summon the power of the 【Extinguished Fu Fu Fu Deng Huo】, is there a chance to reverse the Earth of Stars again and directly break 【Ang Xiao】's Five Elements Perfection?'

Just thinking of 【Ang Xiao】's expression at that time made Lu Yang's body tremble with excitement.

Impatient!

As for the drawbacks of the 【Yanmo Hall】, Lu Yang had also thought of a short-term solution to the Jin Dan problem:

'If I remember correctly, the 【Chengtian Zhengde True Lord】 of the Yushu Jiange should be nearing his end; he will undergo reincarnation soon.'

If I can seize the opportunity, I can completely do the same again and perform another reverse beheading of a True Lord!

At that time, wouldn't I have another Jin Dan?

'Let's move.'

With this thought, Lu Yang hesitated no more, stood up directly, and looked toward the distant horizon. Having left his hometown for over ten years, it was about time to return!

Although he said this, Lu Yang did not intend to teleport directly to his Sword Dao Clone via the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner. After all, the Sword Dao Clone is currently watched very closely by Heaven and Earth; if the main body passed through him, it would be discovered by Heaven and Earth immediately. That would be too conspicuous and did not fit Lu Yang's personality.

'This time, I will take the official channel!'

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

In this way, I can easily disguise myself as a cultivator from beyond the Heavens, avoiding being targeted by Heaven and Earth, and in a sense, even being welcomed by Heaven and Earth.

'This time, I will make a big move!'

Since I can only falsely hold the Golden Seat once, I must use it on the blade's edge. If I don't get the maximum benefit in one go, all the grievances I suffered will be in vain!

"Boom!"

With this thought, Lu Yang immediately transformed into a beam of light reaching the sky, arriving at the Seven Luminaries Beyond the Heavens in the blink of an eye. He then formed a hand seal and unfurled the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner.

In an instant, the Seven Luminaries Heaven, which had originally looked like a hollow void situated in the Sea of Light beyond the Heavens, began to change. Like a scroll being slowly rolled up by Xu Xu, the void symbolizing the Realm Heaven disappeared, and the boundless 【Yin-Yang Life-Death Profound Light】 quickly filled it.

"Huff"

Lu Yang exhaled deeply. The boundless 【Yin-Yang Life-Death Profound Light】 fell upon him, yet only produced a crisp sound like rain hitting plantain leaves. Although there was still damage, it was not much.

Behind Lu Yang's head, halos formed by five divine arts constructed an invisible barrier, dissolving all the 【Yin-Yang Life-Death Profound Light】 into nothingness.

'Ultimate Yin and Yang.'

Lu Yang reached out, pinched a strand of 【Yin-Yang Life-Death Profound Light】, swept his divine sense over it, and simultaneously activated the 【Linglong Heart】. Soon, he comprehended the essence of this thing.

The Profound Light is merely the appearance.

In essence, this thing is the result of the collision between Yin and Yang Qi. Although this collision is purely destructive power, it also hides a sliver of life.

'Every second, it collides.'

'In the vast majority of cases, this collision only forms 【Yin-Yang Life-Death Profound Light】. However, under the support of infinite repetitions, accidents will eventually occur.'

'This accident is the Realm Heaven!'

The Taiji gives birth to the Two Instruments, the Two Instruments give birth to the Four Images, the Four Images give birth to the Eight Trigrams, and the Eight Trigrams determine the Guan Qiankun. The individual Realm Heavens in the Sea of Light beyond the Heavens are born for this reason!

Thinking of this, Lu Yang's eyes moved slightly.

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

As far as he knows, the Nascent Soul Dao Lord can also create Realm Heavens. Do they use the same method? Is there a secret that only a Dao Lord can grasp?

The Jin Dan path held no secrets for Lu Yang anymore.

Perhaps it is as difficult as climbing to the sky, but there is finally a path to follow.

Only the Dao Lord, until now, he has not truly understood the mystery, and does 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...!'

Amidst the sigh, Lu Yang's steps did not slow. As the light and shadow before his eyes flickered, soon, an abyss fell into his field of vision.

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

The colossal abyss that nearly tore apart the sea of light beyond the heavens was the true face of that "wretched place," resembling a blood-filled maw ready to devour its prey.

Yet this time, Lu Yang's mood was entirely different.

Immortals of Heaven and Earth, the Buddha's son Guangming.

It is time to settle old scores!

At this thought, Lu Yang immediately flicked his sleeve; the halo of divine arts behind him instantly unfurled and, with the speed of thunder, crashed into the abyss without holding anything back!

The instant one enters a Boundary Heaven, the divine sense is shattered.

Under such circumstances, few can see the true form of a Boundary Heaven.

However, the Lu Yang of today is far from his former self; with the 【Jade Heart】 in operation, his Dharma Eye pierced through the illusions, allowing him to see scenes ordinary people could not.

"This is..."

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

In that fleeting glance, he suddenly saw what the true form of this world, which appeared as an "abyss" in the sea of light beyond the heavens, actually was.

'Jiangdong, Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Jiangxi, beyond the seas... damn it, these are not five places.'

"They are five Boundary Heavens!"

Lu Yang saw clearly that the collision and joining of five colossal Boundary Heavens created the vast spectacle resembling an "abyss" within the sea of light beyond the heavens!
