Chapter 218: The Great Sun in the Sky

Li Heng frowned at this moment.

Because he discovered that even if he deliberately left a passage opening, it did not necessarily attract the various demons and Weirds of the Yin World to come over, such as in the current situation.

There was no aura of demons or Weirds on the opposite side of the passage.

However, he thought about it again and felt it was quite reasonable.

Although he did not know how large the Yin World was, it was at least not much smaller than the Present World; otherwise, it would not have bred so many demons and Weirds, faintly opposing the Present World and serving as each other's positive and negative.

Then, even if spatial tremors occurred within the Yin World, they would not necessarily happen within a Ghost Domain; they could also occur in barren lands where no demons or Weirds existed.

Then naturally, no demons or Weirds would discover the spatial passage.

He sighed, it seemed he had been too optimistic.

He had originally thought that every passage would have demons and Weirds emerging and would lead to one of the Ghost Domains; who would have thought it was actually random?

Thinking about it again, Li Heng pondered slightly.

If spatial tremors were random for both the Yin World and the Present World, then did that not mean this tremor was not artificially controlled, but a genuine natural Disaster?

Or perhaps, it was not just targeting the Present World, but also the Yin World?

Combined with the Heaven and Earth Mutation.

Li Heng had a faint premonition that a storm was coming. This so-called spatial tremor might just be the result of the Present World and the Yin World colliding...

Shaking his head, he cast these distracting thoughts out of his mind.

No demons or Strange Monsters ran out of the spatial passage, but he could not sit idly by; he still had to apply a layer of insurance, using Earth Vein Power to wrap it. If any unlucky demons or Weirds really ran out through this passage, they would only be harvested by him as Source Power.

With a thought, his Earth Dharma Image erupted with power.

The Earth Vein Power beneath the earth surged once more, then connected and communicated, forming a large net that rose from the ground; the soil churned, the ground shook, and in an instant, it covered the entire plain.

Xuan Dao looked at everything before him with a complex expression.

Just how high was Li Heng's True Reality strength?

It was one thing to easily suppress the spatial tremor that had been incredibly strenuous for him, but to be able to cast another completely different, yet essentially high-level and incredibly thick power to seal this place?

Who exactly was the Second Heaven Peak here?

Or were all those who walked the Great Sun Path this strong?

He felt somewhat broken inside.

"Alright, this side is also roughly settled."

Li Heng clapped his hands and turned to look at Xuan Dao.

"Brother Xuan Dao, have you rested enough? If you have, you and I shall quickly rush to the next spatial tremor location. This matter is of great importance, so it is better not to delay."

Although they did not expect to be able to investigate and seal all the spatial tremor sites in Beijun overnight, they at least had to clear out the spatial tremors near Jinhua City, getting done as much as they could.

"Mm, I have recovered enough."

Xuan Dao nodded, intending to bid farewell to Li Heng and part ways.

At this moment, however, a golden stream of light was seen flying from the distant horizon, streaking across the long sky, and in an instant, it arrived before this plain, seeing the net composed of Earth Vein Power by Li Heng.

"It seems this place has also been resolved?"

The stream of light dispersed, revealing Meng Lingyun, Wang Donglai, Wang Ling, and that old man. Although that old man was somewhat annoyed, feeling that Meng Lingyun was spouting nonsense—how could one person possibly have the energy to cultivate two paths simultaneously? It was simply ridiculous!

But he thought about it from another perspective.

Since he had already come, he might as well go and take a look.

Wang Donglai and Wang Ling, the brother and sister, were still in shock.

After all, this plain was much larger than that mountain which had been sliced in half. Thus, the net of Earth Vein Power wrapping the entire plain was also much larger than the net at that mountain peak.

Their megalophobia deepened further.

The old man looked at everything before him and smacked his lips.

This was indeed beyond his expectations.

This method of sealing such a vast plain was extremely difficult even for him to perform; this person truly had real talent and substance, and his strength might not be weaker than his own.

However, this also deepened his own speculation.

This person's Great Sun Path was absolutely inferior to his own.

To be able to cultivate this kind of power and this kind of path to such a pinnacle, how could there be any energy left to cultivate the Great Sun Path? He was likely just dabbling in it, playing around.

He thought contemptuously, while also feeling sorrowful.

The Great Sun Path, the brilliant Righteous Dao, how could it be treated so lightly?

In the end, the path was broken...

Sensing that outsiders had arrived.

Xuan Dao and Li Heng appeared before the group in an instant.

"Old man, why have you come? Did you discover something?"

Li Heng asked in surprise.

"This is..." He turned his head to look at the old man again.

As for Wang Donglai and his sister, he still remembered them. This girl's bloodline was very special, and his memory was fresh.

"Oh, let me introduce..."

Seeing Li Heng suddenly appear, Meng Lingyun was stunned for a moment. He had thought Li Heng had already finished the business here and headed to the next place; he had not expected them to arrive just in time.

Hearing Li Heng's words, he hurriedly went through the motions, intending to introduce him. Then he suddenly discovered that he did not know this senior's name, and he froze directly.

"This old man is named Lie Dangkong."

At this moment, the old man suddenly spoke, standing with his hands behind his back.

Lie Dangkong!?

Hearing this, Xuan Dao's expression was shaken.

Li Heng sensed something slightly, his expression subtle.

"I did hear this name yesterday."

Lie Dangkong's expression shifted slightly.

"You have heard of it?"

"That is correct, I heard an evaluation of this person from a friend."

"Then how did he evaluate him?" Lie Dangkong asked in a deep voice.

"He said this person is a pitiful yet hateful madman, who specializes in tricking newcomers with potential into walking down a Broken Road destined to have no hope."

Li Heng looked at the silent Xuan Dao beside him and chuckled.

"Heh, a pitiful yet hateful madman? A fair evaluation." Lie Dangkong shook his head, his expression neither smiling nor crying, combined with his somewhat tattered attire, appearing truly crazed.

"That is correct, young man, you have likely already guessed it."

"This old man is that madman."

In an instant, he calmed down again and said calmly.

"I initially also thought he was a madman, but now that I have seen him with my own eyes, I find that is not the case, just a persistent person. You should be looking for me now, right?" Li Heng replied with a light laugh.

"That is correct, I am looking for you."

"Hearing from this kid named Meng Lingyun that your Great Sun Path is very strong and you have achieved high attainments." He looked at Meng Lingyun beside him, a flash of light in his eyes, and said indifferently.

That kid Meng Lingyun?

Hearing this term, Li Heng's expression was subtle.

Although given this old man's seniority, he could indeed call Meng Lingyun a kid, he still felt it was somewhat awkward, because he himself still called Meng Lingyun 'Old Master Meng'.

This seniority is truly not ordinary.

"I wouldn't dare claim high attainments, I just barely understand a billion points."

Li Heng chuckled, appearing very humble.

"You are Lie Dangkong, Old Master Lie?"

At this moment, Xuan Dao interrupted and said something redundant.

He had previously thought it was a coincidental shared name, until he sensed the faint power fluctuations radiating from this old man, confirming it more and more in his heart.

"Oh? You know this old man?"

Lie Dangkong was somewhat surprised.

"I know a little, my master is Li Zhangfeng."

Xuan Dao bowed respectfully to Lie Dangkong.

"Li Zhangfeng? Oh, it's that kid, I know him. He can even be someone else's master now? Interesting. It seems he has already advanced to the Dharma Aspect Realm, or perhaps even reached the second stage."

Lie Dangkong sighed with emotion, then smiled.

Seeing this, Xuan Dao was delighted; it seemed this old man was quite easy to talk to.

Just as he was about to speak, wanting to continue the conversation.

He discovered Lie Dangkong's expression changed, and he spoke coldly.

"You must be the friend that kid mentioned."

"A pitiful yet hateful madman, is that right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xuan Dao's body froze instantly.

This old man has lived for so long, how is he still so sharp, locking onto him at the very first moment? It's over, it's over, he cannot beat this old man.

He lamented in his heart, only able to hope that his master's reputation would be effective.

"Hmph, I will settle accounts with you, kid, later."

Lie Dangkong glared at Xuan Dao.

After saying this, he paid no more attention to Xuan Dao and continued to look at Li Heng. "Since you say you understand a little, can this old man see it for himself? Meng Lingyun did say you are very strong."

Lie Dangkong narrowed his eyes and said slowly.

"If the senior wishes to see, that is certainly possible."

Li Heng smiled lightly.

Everyone was startled, faintly able to smell the gunpowder between the two sides. They had just met, why did they want to fight?

"Hmph, I don't have high requirements for you."

"If you can satisfy me, and you truly want to walk the Great Sun Path, then I can give you a new thing that I spent most of my life wasting, to help you continue this Broken Road."

Lie Dangkong said slowly.

He was old and could no longer do it.

He could only pin his hopes on these young people.

"This junior thanks Old Master Lie for his kindness."

Li Heng smiled and expressed his thanks.

He was indeed sincere in this gratitude.

But he was not thanking Lie Dangkong for these words, but for the Great Sun Visualization Diagram he had left behind. That diagram had indeed helped him a lot; even now, he had not fully visualized it.

From this, one could also see the high level of Lie Dangkong's realm.

His understanding of the Great Sun had at least reached the Dharma Aspect.

That he was still stuck below the Dharma Aspect was only because the path was broken, preventing him from comprehending the Great Sun True Intent.

"No need for thanks, I only hope you can satisfy this old man."

Lie Dangkong said indifferently.

Behind him, the Great Sun Dharma Image faintly emerged, blooming with light, from which invisible, weak ripples surged, cleansing the surroundings.

Li Heng saw this and was lost in thought; so that was how it was.

It would be one thing if there were no Great Sun Supreme Essence, but because the Great Sun True Intent could not be comprehended, a true Great Sun Dharma Law could not be constructed, leaving the Great Sun Dharma Image in a state of Illusion.

That is why the flickering, now-you-see-it-now-you-don't situation occurred.

However, this old gentleman seems to have made a new discovery; it is likely that even without the Dharma Law, merely by using an illusory Great Sun Dharma Image, he can faintly cause the surrounding Heaven and Earth Principles to distort, touching upon the power of a true Dharma Aspect.

It is just a pity that he is stuck at this stage.

He shook his head and sighed, then his thoughts stirred.

The Great Sun Dharma Image sublimated to its limit and manifested, just like a scorching sun in the sky!
