Chapter 1009 The Heaven-Slaying Technique
An invisible and intangible, eerie power seeped into the cloaked youth's body. As he returned to the Main God Space, a wisp of Ying Zheng's thought also successfully infiltrated. Sensing the immense power of the guiding process, he cautiously concealed himself, observed the small world before him, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, I've managed to sneak in."
After silently manipulating the cloaked youth's memories and perceptions with the power of causality, Ying Zheng guided him to leave his personal space and head to the Main God Square. To avoid exposing his identity as a stowaway, he needed to change his host body as soon as possible.
Amidst the sea of people, countless vendors were hawking their wares:
"The 'Heaven-Slaying Technique,' a direct path to the fifth rank of gods and demons!"
"Nirvana Fruit being sold off at rock-bottom prices!"
"Magic and divine artifacts clearance sale!"
"..."
After passing through the bustling market, Ying Zheng manipulated the young man to reunite with his teammates and erase their memories, then began to look for new targets to infiltrate.
Just then, a handsome young man looked around blankly and accidentally bumped into the young man in the cloak.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to!" The handsome young man quickly apologized. He was Pei Yuan, a newcomer who had just entered the Main God Space.
Although the power of gods and demons existed in his original time and space, he was just an ordinary senior high school student. It was an era of spiritual revival, and with the help of his parents, he integrated a trace of the divine beast Azure Dragon bloodline into his body, barely reaching the second level of the extraordinary realm.
Suddenly chosen by the Main God Space, he was both excited and at a loss, knowing that this was an opportunity to change his destiny—with the help of the space's resources, he might truly achieve a divine or demonic body. It should be noted that even though spiritual energy had been revived for a century, the strongest beings in the world were only at the seventh level of the Transcendent Realm, at the Celestial level.
Sensing these thoughts, Ying Zheng felt that this person was a suitable vessel. A strange power quietly seeped into the young man's soul without him noticing.
After the cloaked youth returned to normal, he glanced indifferently at Pei Yuan and turned to leave: "I'm going to... Oh right, sell items to accumulate reincarnation points."
“The Void Primordial Divine Talisman, the Yao Guang Star Sword, the White Emperor Geng Jin Calamity Qi… These divine artifacts are unheard of on Earth, yet here they can be obtained using Reincarnation Points!” Pei Yuan reluctantly looked away.
As a newcomer to this space, he was penniless and only a second-tier transcendent being, so no one cared about the items he carried. His only valuable possession, the trace of Azure Dragon bloodline, couldn't be exchanged for many reincarnation points.
After wandering through the market, Pei Yuan suppressed his longing to return to his personal space. This was a benefit given to newcomers by the main god. Although it was only ten square meters in size and unadorned, it was said that by consuming reincarnation points, one could transform all things and even evolve the foundation of gods and demons—of course, the number of points required was astronomical.
"return!"
With a resolute voice, Pei Yuan returned to Earth. After the spiritual energy revival, this planet had expanded thousands of times. Ying Zheng, residing within him, quietly comprehended the rules of this world, his divine sense sweeping over it before he showed slight disappointment: "This is not the Earth I once inhabited."
Looking out, one sees majestic celestial palaces rising above the clouds, while countless powerful beings slumber in layers of the Netherworld. The famous mountains and great rivers are permeated with the aura of gods and demons. Clearly, with the resurgence of spiritual energy, humanity is no longer the master of the world. Once these ancient beings fully awaken, an era of coexistence between humans and gods will begin.
Ying Zheng paid little attention to these things, focusing instead on comprehending the rules of a world drastically different from the previous universe. With the aid of the strange power fused with Pei Yuan's soul, he created a small world based on the nascent form of the Primordial Dao. As his understanding of the rules of this world deepened, countless Dao patterns were continuously perfecting themselves.
At this moment, Pei Yuan was enjoying a delicious meal made with precious second-tier spiritual food, Qingyang Rice, and demon beast meat. Feeling the surging blood energy within his body, he easily put down his chopsticks and said, "I'm done eating. I'll go cultivate now."
The parents discussed anxiously, "We don't know if Yuan'er will be able to get into a good university..."
"What are you worried about? He's already at the second level of the Extraordinary Realm, so getting into a top university won't be a problem. It's just that he still needs to activate his Azure Dragon bloodline to get into a top university."
"I need to go to Yingzhou to find a cultivation technique that suits his bloodline. Although the Heavenly Court Fire Department's 'Crimson Fire Treasure Record' that I practice can directly lead to the seventh-level Celestial Being, it is not quite compatible with Yuan'er's physique..."
Listening to his parents' discussion, Pei Yuan was moved but secretly made up his mind: "Mom and Dad, you don't need to worry about me anymore. God, apply for a newbie mission!"
After equipping himself with various defensive and offensive magical artifacts and extraordinary fifth-tier talismans, he finally began the mission.
"Reincarnator ID n**, requesting initial mission, world locked..."
When the mechanical voice of the main god sounded, Pei Yuan nervously touched the talisman he always carried with him—these were his parents' most treasured life-saving items, which he had secretly brought out.
Meanwhile, in a fragmented middle-thousand world, hundreds of meteors suddenly streaked across the sky above the seven hundred states ruled by the Tai Xuan Dynasty. A strange aura enveloped the surrounding area, and the meteors fell to the corners of the various states.
The Tai Xuan Dynasty, residing in Tianzhou, has ruled the world for nearly ten thousand years, but now it shows signs of decline. As a shooting star streaks across the sky, the Tai Xuan Bell, guarding the destiny of the Dragon Court, suddenly rings out!
"Boom-thump-"
The profound sound of the bell reverberated throughout heaven and earth, shaking the entire Tianzhou with nine full tolls. Countless living beings, court officials, cultivation families from all over the land, and even the newly adult Emperor Xuanyuan were all astonished.
"The Tai Xuan Bell has been silent for a hundred years, but now it rings nine times, shaking the world. This strange phenomenon has not been seen for thousands of years. What changes have occurred?"
"The nine chimes of the bell symbolize the impending doom of the dynasty!"
"We are currently facing a calamity that has lasted for ten thousand years, and no human dynasty has ever been able to survive this calamity since ancient times."
"The ten-thousand-year cycle is approaching. The interaction between heaven and man will give rise to murderous intent, and the Great Mystery will collapse!"
"This is our opportunity!"
"..."
Similar thoughts and conversations resonated in countless spiritual families in Tianzhou.
On a hilltop in Cangzhou, Pei Yuan appeared. Seeing the wisps of smoke rising from the distant village, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought I would be unconscious for a long time. Fortunately, the main god did not abandon me to the desolate wilderness. Since there are people with smoke rising from their chimneys, it's a good time to gather information about this world."
"I only hope that there are no powerful gods or demons in this world who can pluck stars from the sky and seize the moon, otherwise my meager cultivation level will likely be in grave danger." Pei Yuan sighed helplessly.
"World mission integration complete, please accept the mission!"
A mechanical voice sounded, and a massive amount of information flooded into Pei Yuan's mind:
"Choose one of three main quests" "Quest 1: Restore Order: The Tai Xuan Dynasty has stood for ten thousand years, but now the interaction between Heaven and Man has given rise to murderous intent. Help them suppress the hidden dragon and continue the dynasty's life. Reward: one million Reincarnation Points!"
"Mission Two: Supporting the Dragon Court: Take advantage of the impending collapse of the dynasty to find a hidden dragon to help him dominate and establish a new dynasty. Reward: one million Reincarnation Points!"
"Task 3: Collect Fortune Treasures: The basic requirement is to submit items worth 30,000 Reincarnation Points. Additional rewards will be given based on the estimated value of the Fortune Treasures for any amount exceeding this requirement!"
"Failure to complete the mission will result in a deduction of 30,000 Reincarnation Points; those with insufficient points will be eliminated!"
Pei Yuan's expression changed drastically. His parents, both fifth-tier Transcendent cultivators, had long ago revealed to him the secrets of how various countries on Earth had built their Dragon Courts. Those who could create Yin Land and achieve Ghost Immortal status must be god-like beings—this world was actually a world of immortals and martial arts!
To extend Tai Xuan's life in such a world? That's utterly delusional. Even if he were to seek out a hidden dragon, how could his meager cultivation possibly help it achieve dominance? The first two missions, though richly rewarding, are beyond the reach of a newcomer like him.
The third task was the only one worth trying, but the treasure of destiny required nourishment from humanity or the heavens, and it could only be condensed by establishing power and employing secret techniques. Such secret techniques were state secrets on Earth, and he had no way of obtaining them.
"This is it! I don't have a single Reincarnation Point left. If the mission fails, I'll definitely die!" Pei Yuan cried out in despair.
"Shut up! Is a little difficulty really worth all this fuss about?"
The gentle voice startled Pei Yuan, who turned around abruptly. He saw the white-robed youth with his hands behind his back, gazing at the sky, his body radiating Daoist energy, as if he were observing the mysteries of the heavens.
"Are you... a companion sent by the Supreme God to carry out this mission?" Pei Yuan asked tentatively. Recalling the hundreds of shooting stars that accompanied their arrival, his heart sank: this was a large-scale group mission! According to his parents' warnings, reincarnators were often in competition, and some even resorted to underhanded tactics. With his second-tier Transcendent cultivation, he would likely be the first to suffer.
Ying Zheng looked down at him with disdain: "I came with you. Put away those little tricks. If you had any murderous intent, you would have been reduced to ashes long ago."
Pei Yuan scratched his head awkwardly. Since he had been seen through, he simply laid his cards on the table: "This junior was blind! Senior has extraordinary demeanor and is upright and honest..." He hurriedly offered a string of flattering words, thinking that if he could cling to this unfathomable person, he might be able to survive the danger.
Ying Zheng coldly observed the slick young man, thinking to himself that this boy's temperament was well-suited for survival in the Main God Space.
In the 9876th year of the Tai Xuan calendar, a meteor appeared in broad daylight, a frequent ominous sign. The Tai Xuan Bell tolled nine times, shaking the court and the countryside. Although the Yin Earth Dragon Court dispatched Yin soldiers and divine generals to manifest in broad daylight and temporarily suppress various forces, undercurrents were already surging in all seven hundred prefectures of the world. Each prefecture received the imperial order to strictly investigate the meteor phenomenon, while cultivation families and holy lands fueled the flames, waiting for the Tai Xuan's resources to be exhausted.
Outside Black Wind Stronghold on Qingfeng Mountain in Cangzhou, Pei Yuan moved swiftly among the bandits, his Dragon Intent Fist sometimes domineering and fierce, sometimes elusive and unpredictable. After subduing the bandits, he frowned, "Where can I find this treasure of destiny? What am I going to do?"
These bandits were at most at the second level of the Transcendent Realm, and their cultivation techniques were extremely rudimentary, making them utterly vulnerable in front of Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan glanced at Ying Zheng behind him, who was studying a low-level martial arts manual, and increased the pressure on his hands. The bandit leader was being pounded to the ground, begging for mercy: "Hero, spare my life!"
The bandits collapsed to the ground, screaming in agony. They were innocent victims—Black Wind Stronghold was a local tyrant in this mountainous region, living a carefree life by collecting offerings from several villages. Who would have thought that disaster would strike so suddenly, with a powerful expert appearing and destroying their stronghold?
Under Pei Yuan's persistent questioning, the bandits spilled all the information they knew. After learning the general situation of the world, Pei Yuan's expression grew increasingly grim.
"Although it was expected, the fact that each of the seven hundred states of Tai Xuan has a territory of over a million miles and a population of tens of millions is simply outrageous! Powerful figures have established sects in famous mountains and great rivers!"
This world's cultivation system uses martial arts to enter the Dao, divided into realms such as Body Tempering, Qi Absorption, Qi Refining, Dao Foundation, and Innate. As for those beyond the Innate realm, it is beyond the knowledge of these mountain bandits. It is said that even the strongest cultivator in Yingfeng City, the overlord within a thousand miles, is only at the Dao Foundation level.
What's even more alarming is that the cultivation civilization in this realm is extremely prosperous, with countless powerful figures innovating and establishing new traditions. Even within the imperial dynasty, there are immortals presiding over it, making it a veritable holy land for cultivation. Although the Black Wind Stronghold Chieftain and Pei Yuan were both at the Qi Gathering Realm, he was an unorthodox cultivator and was easily subdued in a single move. Such a force is utterly insignificant in the vast Cangzhou; it could easily wipe out even the counties and towns under Yingfeng City.
The Tai Xuan Dynasty is now in decline, and various cultivation families and holy lands are gradually becoming independent. Having digested this information, Pei Yuan turned to Ying Zheng with a mournful face:
"Senior, even a seventh or eighth-level extraordinary expert can hardly stir up any trouble in this world, how can my small body possibly manage? I beg you to lend a hand! If you help me overcome this tribulation, I will also take your fortune and treasures as my guarantee, we can draw up a contract as proof!"
Ying Zheng looked up from the "Moonlight Breathing Technique": "Do you know what price must be paid to ask me to take action?"
"I don't know! But since you're willing to follow me, you're not here to make a fool of yourself, are you?" Pei Yuan asked slyly.
"You're quite the clever one," Ying Zheng chuckled. "Very well, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll give you some pointers. As for the price... you'll find out in the future."
Seeing Ying Zheng relent, Pei Yuan was secretly pleased but also uneasy. He knew that without the help of a powerful figure, he had no chance of obtaining the treasure of destiny on his own.
"Do you know what a treasure of destiny is?" Ying Zheng suddenly asked.
Pei Yuan hesitated and said, "I know a little about it. It should be a treasure for suppressing destiny, crafted by a top power using secret methods to connect with heaven and earth. The Tai Xuan Jade Seal must be of this kind."
"The so-called treasures of destiny require the approval of Heaven and Earth and the support of all living beings. In short, they must be favored by Heaven and desired by the people. The jade seal you mentioned is indeed one, and various great lineages also have methods for condensing treasures that can suppress destiny." Ying Zheng paused, and said meaningfully, "If they lose the favor of Heaven and the hearts of the people, the treasures will fall from their pedestals."
Pei Yuan's face turned bitter: "Isn't it obvious that the only option is to rob? We were hoping to find some ancient treasures to hand over!"
"Among ancient treasures, only those of epic human level are truly useful, such as the Tianyang Diagram, which symbolizes the first emperor of this world," Ying Zheng said casually.
Pei Yuan felt even more desperate upon hearing this—the Heavenly Yang Diagram was comparable to the Xuanyuan Sword and the Fuxi Divination on Earth; how could he possibly acquire it?
"What should this junior do? He can't just force his way into the sacred grounds of the aristocratic families, can he?"
Ying Zheng tapped his forehead with his finger: "Foolish! Didn't you just say it was the will of Heaven and the hearts of the people? Now that the dynasty is about to collapse, it is the time for hidden dragons to rise. You can easily establish your own territory, and these mountain bandits are your ready-made base."
Pei Yuan suddenly realized, but after glancing at his own cultivation level, he looked expectantly at Ying Zheng: "Senior..."
"Very well." Ying Zheng shook his head and pointed out a ray of light. "This 'Taiyin Wonderful Method' can directly lead to the realm of gods and demons, so I will bestow it upon you."
A vast legacy surged into his mind, leaving Pei Yuan speechless with awe: "The wondrous Taiyin Method! My family's 'Crimson Fire Treasure Record' is nothing compared to it!"
The cultivation method elucidates the Five Transformations of Taiyin: Profound Yin is supreme, Pure Yin is supremely clean, Extreme Yin is supremely malevolent, Transforming Yin is supremely mixed, and Crimson Yin is supremely dangerous. The unification of these five meridians can condense the Taiyin origin and achieve the Dao fruit of a Ghost Immortal.
Upon catching a glimpse of the "Moonlight Breathing Technique" scroll in Ying Zheng's hand, Pei Yuan suddenly had an absurd thought: Could this divine and demonic technique have been casually deduced by the senior? If so, this person's strength is simply unfathomable!
But he quickly shook off those thoughts—the most important thing right now was how to survive in this perilous world.
However, upon examining the "Taiyin Wonderful Method," Pei Yuan looked troubled: "This technique looks like it's for women..."
"What is the difference between Yin and Yang in the Way of Taiyin? Do you intend to abandon the profound technique that leads directly to gods and demons and continue to cultivate the 'Crimson Fire Treasure Record' that is incompatible with your bloodline?" Ying Zheng said leisurely. "Once you have mastered this technique to a high degree, your Azure Dragon bloodline will naturally transform into the Taiyin Azure Dragon, which is the potential of a top-tier divine beast."
Pei Yuan knew this was no exaggeration. Such a divine and demonic cultivation technique was a treasured possession of all the major powers on Earth; obtaining it was an immense stroke of luck. However, considering that the Yin Transformation Chapter required the transformation of Yin and Yang, and that reaching its peak might lead to a change in gender, he hesitated. (End of Chapter)
