Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

At the rift between the Yin and Yang realms, a crimson spear of light, like a red-hot iron, pierced through butter, tearing open a scarlet rift that stretched for thousands of miles.

The moment the yin energy, carrying the remaining bloodthirsty aura, rushed through the boundary wall, scorching yang energy surged towards him like a tide, violently clashing with the yin energy source around him, bursting out with dazzling white light.

"It's cloudy. What's wrong? Why are you so flustered?"

Before Tianyin could catch his breath, he saw the Yang Realm army standing in full battle array opposite him, and at the very front of the army, a general clad in crimson-gold armor stood in mid-air. Behind him, besides the Yang Realm army, were countless Yang Realm warships, the burning flame runes on their hulls illuminating the void as if it were daytime.

The person who just asked the question is the strongest fighter under the Yang Realm King, the Lord of the Flaming Sun Realm, and the second strongest person in the Yang Realm Starfield, besides the Yang Realm King.

Tianyin clutched his bleeding back. The crimson light on the Blood Soul Banner, already dimmed by the attack of the Rift Universe, was now even more weakened by the erosion of yang energy, and looked as if it might dissipate at any moment.

"Thanks to Brother Yanyang's timely arrival, the entire Yin Realm Star Region is now under the control of those rebels. Just now, a group of them were besieging me. If I hadn't broken through the boundary with all my might, I would probably have been killed by them by now."

Tianyin hadn't spoken for a long time, and coupled with the fact that he had just been surrounded and attacked by a group of people, he was filled with resentment and blurted out his entire ordeal. Only after he finished speaking did he realize that he shouldn't have revealed the details of the banquet to the other party.

Yan Yang grinned, and wisps of steam seeped from his skin beneath his crimson armor.

"This is different from what Brother Tianyin told us when he contacted us some time ago."

Although Yan Yang had a smile on his face, his eyes showed an undisguised indifference.

A month ago, Tianyin suddenly contacted them, saying that the King of Yin Realm was dead and that he now controlled most of the Yin Realm Starfield. He wanted to use the Yang Realm Starfield to take the throne of the King of Yin Realm, and then for the next hundred years, he would provide 30% of the resources of the entire Yin Realm Starfield to the Yang Realm Starfield. Only then did Yanyang take action.

But now, Tianyin blurted out words that were completely different from what he had said before.

Upon hearing Yan Yang's words, Tian Yin smiled sheepishly, said nothing, and sat cross-legged in the void to begin recovering.

“Since the circumstances are different, the price we agreed on before can no longer be the same. Over the next two hundred years, you will receive 50% of the resources in exchange for becoming the King of the Underworld.”

Upon hearing Yan Yang's words, Tian Yin's figure in the void swayed slightly.

"Brother Yanyang, you jest. If we only allocate half the resources, the rest won't even be enough for the Yin Realm Star Domain. Besides, it's for two hundred years. The Yin Realm Star Domain will be dragged down. What use will I be as the King of the Yin Realm then?"

Tianyin didn't dare to directly refuse Yanyang, so he could only try to gloss over the situation with jokes. Just as he was about to say something more...
Yan Yang turned and left without any hesitation, and the army behind him also began to change direction without any orders, as did the warships in the void.

Tianyin's raised hand trembled slightly with fear. Only after Yanyang began to leave did he grit his teeth and speak again.

"Okay! Two hundred years, but not 50%, still 30%!"

As Yan Yang departed, a smile crept onto his lips.

"Fifty percent!"

"Four percent!"

The sky was overcast; he almost ground his teeth to powder before finally managing to utter those two words.

"That's what a good friend is like! Hahaha, Tianyin, don't worry, you're going to be the King of the Underworld!"

Yan Yang waved his hand, and the Yang Realm warship behind him turned around and faced the star field boundary wall again. The array opened fire at the same time, and billions of golden beams bombarded the crack in the boundary wall. The crack that had begun to heal expanded again under the impact of the Yang energy, and the spatial barrier at the edge was scorched and sizzled.

"kill!"

The Holy Ancestor Yanyang was the first to pass through the rift, his crimson-gold spear pointing straight at the Yin Realm. The star core fire condensed at the spear tip burned away all the Yin energy along the way.

The Lord of the Yin Realm followed closely behind, his Blood Soul Banner unfurling a ten-thousand-foot-long blood curtain, forming a strange balance with the Yang energy, thus opening a passage for the Yang Realm army.

Tens of thousands of cultivators from the Yang Realm surged into the Yin Realm star field like a tidal wave. The main cannons of the warships roared in unison, and golden beams of light and blood-red spears intertwined to form a net. Wherever they passed, stars shattered, nebulae burned, and even space itself was scorched with dark trails.

On the bridge of the Lieyu, Ji Yu looked at the rapidly spreading red dots on the star map with a solemn expression: "The main force of the Yang Realm has all crossed the boundary wall. The one leading them should be the first realm master of the Yang Realm star field, the Yan Yang realm master. In addition, there are three top realm masters and twelve high-level realm masters, not to mention countless mid-level and low-level realm masters. Their combat power is several times that of us."

"Immediately send a message to Fellow Daoist Li: We are no match for them. Retreat!"

Ji Yu made a decision immediately: the opponent's combat strength was not on the same level as theirs at all.

One Heavenly Yin Realm Lord was enough to hold off the five Sword Sect Ancestors and the Rift Universe, and still had the strength to escape. Now, not only has the Heavenly Yin Realm Lord returned, but he has also brought a Flame Sun Realm Lord of similar strength, as well as three other top-tier Realm Lords. This terrifying combat power can directly sweep through the entire Yin Realm Starfield.

No sooner had Ji Yu finished speaking than Li Mu appeared on the bridge of the Lieyu.

Li Mu's sudden appearance surprised everyone. Before Ji Yu could ask, Li Mu explained why he had come.

“I have completely refined the core of the Yin Realm Star Domain. With the boundary barrier broken, I will naturally sense it.”

As Li Mu spoke, his gaze pierced through the void and landed on the Lord of the Blazing Sun Realm.

The star core fire on the surface of the opponent's body contains the pure Yang Dao, which is completely opposite to the Yin Dao, but it also belongs to the nine basic Daos, which is exactly the nourishment that the Chaos Dao Tree needs.

"You can't find anything after wearing iron shoes, but it takes no effort to get there."

Li Mu murmured softly. He had never fully mastered the Great Dao of Yin. He guessed that the three brothers, Tianyin, Diyin, and Xuanyin, still occupied a part of the Great Dao of Yin, which was why the fruit had not yet ripened.

Now that Tianyin has returned, although he doesn't see Diyin and Xuanyin, he knows the general situation. The three of them share the same origin. Tianyin was attacked by the Chaos Qi, yet he was able to recover so quickly. In addition, since the other two are not around, they were probably sacrificed by Tianyin long ago.

In other words, all that is needed is to kill Tianyin and absorb his Dao essence, and the Dao of Yin will be completely perfected. At that time, the fruit on the Chaos Dao Tree will surely ripen.

Moreover, several people from the Yang Realm are also here, so Li Mu can test whether the Great Dao of Yang can make the Chaos Dao Tree bear a new fruit.

If Li Mu's speculation is correct, then there should be nine fruits for the nine basic Great Daos. If one fruit can help Li Mu break through to the Dao Integration Realm, then when all three thousand Great Daos are gathered, it will be the time for him to continue his path of cultivation.

"You all stay and guard the spirit ship, I'll be right back." Before he finished speaking, Li Mu had already disappeared again and reappeared in front of the army.

The moment Tianyin saw Li Mu, he couldn't help but tremble. The pressure Li Mu exerted on him was so immense that his first thought upon seeing Li Mu was to turn around and run away.

"He, he is a cultivator of the Chaos Dao!"

Tianyin excitedly pointed at Li Mu.

Yan Yang scoffed.

"The Great Dao of Chaos, the sealed Great Dao, has been cultivated to such a level without being stifled. It seems that the King of the Underworld is really useless."

Li Mu stood in the void, his green robes remaining perfectly still amidst the clash of Yin and Yang energies. The Chaotic Dao Domain quietly unfolded, its gray currents enveloping an area of ​​tens of thousands of miles like a celestial curtain, forcibly pushing back the golden sea of ​​light of the Yang Realm army by three feet.

The Lord of the Blazing Sun Realm gripped the crimson-gold spear tightly, and the star core fire at the spear tip surged, scorching the surrounding chaotic energy with a sizzling sound, but it still could not stop the chaotic true energy from continuing to spread.

The three top realm lords of the Yang Realm behind him attacked simultaneously, their natal magic treasures transforming into three blazing Yang flames that crashed into the Dao Domain barrier like meteors. Wherever the Yang flames passed, chaotic energy intertwined with the blazing Yang flames, entwining in the void before finally being assimilated by the chaotic energy.

Li Mu flicked his finger, and three fragments of ninth-order divine artifacts flew out from the Chaos Treasure Palace.

The core of the earth sank into the void, and the barrier of the Dao Domain instantly became as thick as a star core sinking into gold. When the Yang Flame crashed into it, it burst into a dazzling rain of light, but it could no longer shake it in the slightest.

The sprout of life transformed into countless green vines, entwining the other two streams of yang flame. The vines absorbed the power of the flames and blossomed into crimson spiritual flowers, transforming the power of the yang flames into the power of life, which became nourishment for the sprout of life.

Fragments of time floated in the air, emanating waves of time that slowed the movements of the Yang Realm army, as if they were sinking into a sticky swamp.

"Little tricks!"

The Lord of the Blazing Sun roared and hurled his crimson-gold spear. The spear transformed into a fire dragon that pierced the heavens and earth, its scales condensed from pure Yang laws, each reflecting a light capable of incinerating all things.

This was the strongest attack from the Lord of the Blazing Sun Realm. He had once pierced through an entire top-tier realm with a single spear thrust, thus establishing his status as the second strongest in the Yang Realm. He planned to use this attack to break through the Chaos Dao Domain.

The moment the fire dragon crashed into the barrier of the Dao Domain, the chaotic air currents churned violently, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the gray sky. However, the cracks that appeared one moment were repaired the next, and the rich life force brought by the bud of life allowed the chaotic Dao Domain to continuously revive.

Li Mu raised his hand, and the illusory image of the Chaos Dao Tree rose from his sea of ​​consciousness. The Yin runes on the main trunk strongly repelled the Yang Dao.

"Use chaos as a furnace to refine your essence!"

Li Mu formed a sword shape with his fingers and unleashed a chaotic sword aura. The instant the sword aura collided with the fire dragon, the yang flames on the dragon's body receded like a tide, revealing dragon bones composed of chains of laws. The chaotic energy flowed upstream along the chains, and wherever it passed, the dragon bones crumbled inch by inch, ultimately transforming into a wisp of pure yang essence, which was then devoured by the Dao Tree.

"How can this be!"

The Lord of the Blazing Sun Realm's expression changed drastically. He could clearly feel his connection to the Great Dao of Yang being forcibly severed. Golden blood seeped from the skin beneath his crimson-gold armor, indicating damage to his very essence.

Seeing this, the Lord of the Heavenly Yin Realm suddenly caused the Blood Soul Banner to swell, and two slightly damaged blood dragons rushed straight at the Rift Universe while Li Mu was distracted: "Seize that spirit ship and wipe out his subordinates first!"

Inside the warship, Blood Slaughter God and others could no longer contain themselves. The Blood Prison Origin transformed into a ten-thousand-foot-long blood banner. The moment it collided with the Blood Dragon, billions of blood soldier phantoms rushed out from the banner, tearing the Blood Dragon into a sky full of blood mist.

The King of Zhenhai and the Buddha of Kuchan acted simultaneously, their weak waters and Buddhist light weaving into a net that purified the dissipating blood mist.

The Sword Sect Ancestor thrust out his sword, piercing a hole in the Blood Soul Banner of the Heavenly Yin Realm Lord. The Blood Soul Banner was already damaged from blocking the attack of the Rift Universe for the Heavenly Yin Realm Lord, and had not yet recovered. Now, after being attacked by several people, it was almost completely destroyed.

"put!"

The Lord of the Flaming Sun Realm dared not be overconfident. Even the King of the Yang Realm would not dare to withstand his full-force attack. However, the opponent did not make any move and simply blocked his attack with the barrier of the Chaos Dao Domain. This showed that the opponent's strength far exceeded his own and was at least no less than that of the King of the Yang Realm.

Following the orders of the Lord of the Blazing Sun Realm, the warships of the Yang Realm began to charge up their energy and aimed at Li Mu, who was standing in the void.

Countless golden and fiery red beams of light shot towards Li Mu. Li Mu gave a light shout, and the gate of the Chaos Treasure Palace opened, unleashing a barrage of attacks into the palace.

The scene of the treasure palace exploding as the Lord of the Flaming Sun Realm had envisioned did not occur. After countless attacks entered the Chaos Treasure Palace, they were like mud oxen entering the sea, without causing any waves.

After those beams of light entered the Chaos Treasure Palace, they instantly transformed into pure Yang Realm energy, becoming nourishment for the Chaos Dao Tree.

The warships' energy comes from the origin of the realm, which is the purest energy. Unlike the laws, it can be directly assimilated.

"I'll borrow your Great Dao Origin for a moment."

Li Mu's voice echoed like a ghost behind the Flame Sun Saint Ancestor. The Chaos Giant Axe appeared in his hand at some unknown time, the Heaven-Opening Patterns on the axe blade lit up, and a gray arc of light swept past, severing the Flame Sun Realm Lord's left arm at the shoulder.

The moment the golden blood gushed forth, Li Mu reached out and grabbed, the chaotic energy transforming into a giant hand that firmly locked the severed arm along with the overflowing Yang essence. The severed arm struggled violently in his palm, but was refined layer by layer by the chaotic energy, eventually transforming into a drop of golden liquid that merged into the Chaos Dao Tree.

The golden light on the tree trunk grew increasingly intense, and faint yang runes could be seen flowing within it.

"How dare you hurt me!"

The Lord of the Blazing Sun Realm's eyes turned bloodshot, and he suddenly pressed his remaining right arm against his chest. The primal power of the Yang Realm erupted like a volcano, and his body began to burn, transforming into a miniature star core with a diameter of a thousand feet, illuminating the Chaos Dao Domain as if it were daytime.

"Die!"

The miniature star core exploded with a deafening roar, and billions of golden rays of light pierced through the Dao Domain barrier. Wherever they passed, stars were annihilated and space collapsed.

This was a deadly attack by the Lord of the Yang Realm, at the cost of damaging his own Great Dao. Even top-tier Lords would be powerless against such an attack.

Li Mu stood at the center of the explosion, the branches and leaves of the Chaos Dao Tree dancing wildly, peeling away and annihilating the golden light threads layer by layer, not even stirring the hem of Li Mu's blue robe.

The Lord of the Flaming Sun Realm watched as the Rift Universe, located at the edge of the Dao Domain, shook violently due to the shockwaves from the explosion. This was enough to demonstrate the power of this attack, not to mention Li Mu, who was at the center of the explosion. That guy was doomed!
The Lord of the Yang Realm couldn't help but laugh heartily, looking up at the sky. (End of Chapter)
