Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1032 Five Elements
As far as the eye could see, there was only endless darkness.

However, unlike the darkness of the Void Realm, the darkness that greeted Lü Yang's eyes was not peaceful or tranquil at all; instead, it was filled with surging malice.

Where exactly is this place?

Lu Yang frowned deeply, the Bagua pattern in his hand almost sparking with fire, but he was unable to form a clear hexagram, as if his calculations were being hindered.

Lü Yang immediately increased his magical power.

Not only that, the [Arctic Exorcism Institute] also suddenly collapsed, turning into tiny specks of light the size of rice grains and merging into his brow, further elevating his status!

At this moment, although Lü Yang's cultivation level was still at the second step of the Great True Monarch, the peak of the Dao Integration stage, his essence was no different from stepping onto the Immortal Bridge.

With the blessing of this level of status, he finally gradually broke through the darkness before him and saw a tiny but real ball of light. When he tried his best to bring his divine sense close to that ball of light, he suddenly heard the sound of waves that appeared and disappeared.

'【sea of ​​bitterness】.?'

Lü Yang was stunned, his mind racing: 'No, it's not the [Sea of ​​Bitterness], it's the Fruition Realm. What I'm seeing is the true form of the Fruition Realm located within the [Sea of ​​Bitterness]?'

Is it pomegranate wood?
No, if what I'm seeing is pomegranate wood, then what is this dark place I'm in? Why is it connected to pomegranate wood?
Lu Yang examined the ball of light before him more closely, his mind flashing back to what he had read in the book of fruition: the profound mystery of the [Pomegranate Wood]: 'It can mend the heavens, fill gaps, and restore the perfection of all things.' Something's not right; this mystery doesn't seem to fit with the [Pomegranate Wood] itself."

What is pomegranate wood?
'Pure gold belongs to the wood element; its nature is firm yet somewhat clumsy. It signifies numerous offspring, a bright and lustrous interior, and even the addition of blessings, longevity, and the elevation of one's destiny.'

There is obviously something wrong with this.

'The imagery of the fruition itself doesn't align with the ultimate mystery; no wonder no one can prove the [Pomegranate Wood]—the problem lies at its very root.'

However, a question arises: what exactly did the first generation of the Heaven-Mending Peak Master do?
'The other three first-generation peak masters were all concerned with the major events of the entire Guanghai, but when it came to the first-generation Mending Heaven Peak Master, he failed miserably and changed his fruit position to something mysterious?'

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Lu Yang calmed himself down and stopped trying to contact the pomegranate wood. Instead, he began to examine the darkness around him and try to deduce its true nature.

Suddenly.

In the distant past, Lu Yang unearthed from his mind the scene he had seen when he first created the blessed land, a memory from his past life as a celestial spirit.

'.pit.'

At that time, he cultivated the [Mysterious Capital Blessed Land] to observe the present world, only to discover that all the positions in the Immortal Pivot were essentially pitfalls.

'At the time, my perspective was too limited to see the clues, and my guesses were too naive. Later, as my cultivation level increased and I learned that the true form of the Fruit Realm was in the [Sea of ​​Bitterness], I forgot about it and stopped thinking about it. However, now it seems that my guesses back then might not have been entirely unreasonable!'

'The Five Elements Fruit Positions were probably extracted by the Dao Lord from the Immortal Pivot.'

That's why so many pits were left behind, riddling the heavens and earth with holes; in a way, this was also a way to seal away the Ancestral Dragon.

Then the problem is coming.

Am I in a pit right now?

'No, that's not right, it's not a pit!'

In an instant, Lü Yang felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his divine sense trembling: 'It should be a tunnel! One end of the tunnel connects to the excavated fruit site, but what about the other end?'

—The First Emperor!
'Holy crap, did that guy, the first Peak Master of the Heaven-Mending Peak, Bu Tianque, somehow manage to sneak into the Ancestral Dragon's seal using his position?'

Did the Holy Ancestor discover it?
'Perhaps not. This isn't the normal path; only someone like the First Heaven-Mending Peak Master, who has reached the pinnacle of understanding the [Heaven and Earth], could traverse it!'

Even he was able to sense the existence of this tunnel out of thin air through causal deduction because he had cultivated the [Dongxu Jingye Book]. If it were the Holy Sect's patriarch, he would probably only wonder why the first generation of the Heaven-Mending Peak Master disappeared after attaining the Fruition Position!
That's why he's keeping an eye on the pomegranate tree.

What exactly went wrong with the pomegranate wood, and what did the first generation of the Heaven-Mending Peak Master do? This question is probably a mystery even to the Holy Sect's ancestor.

It is precisely because of this——

'The first generation of the Heaven-Mending Peak Master modified the mysteries of the [Pomegranate Wood], making its mysteries and imagery incompatible, precisely to prevent anyone from attaining the status of a True Monarch of this Dao.'

Even with the support of the Dao Lord, no one can prove it!

'This path to enlightenment is locked!' 'That's why in my previous life as a celestial being, the Holy Sect's patriarch expected me to attain the [Pomegranate Wood] realm, and even wanted to communicate with me after I became a True Lord.'

I understand, I understand everything!

However, it's all speculation so far.

Lü Yang abruptly turned around, no longer looking at the pomegranate wood, but instead gazing into the endless darkness behind him: 'I still need decisive evidence.'

Upon realizing this, he suddenly activated his divine sense.

Go all out!

In this dark place, it's hard to find your way, but the pomegranate tree behind you is the best guiding light. Just keep walking in the opposite direction.

After an unknown amount of time, even with Lü Yang's current level of cultivation, he couldn't help but feel "tired" and was almost about to give up when finally, he seemed to see a faint glimmer in the darkness. It was very fragile, but it definitely existed, and it instantly attracted his attention.

'Really?'

Lu Yang immediately mustered his last bit of strength and headed towards that faint light. As if parting a curtain, he finally saw the thing emitting the faint light.

That was a main road.

Inside the [Master of Nourishing Life], Lü Yang's Dharma body cracked without warning. Even though it was deduced out of thin air, the invisible suppressive force still surged in through the connection!

Such suppressive power was merely an aftershock emanating from the seal itself, not even a scrap of the seal, yet it still crushed Lü Yang's Dharma body. His intuition told him that if he continued to maintain contact, he would be directly crushed into dust by this suppressive power!
In a flash, Lü Yang decisively released his grip.

"boom!"

The next second, the Bagua Divine Sense in his hand shattered, causing his face to turn red at first, and then turn deathly pale after he spat out a mouthful of blood.

But he saw it.

As the suppressing force reached him, he also witnessed the seal's true form: 'That is... the Five Elements! The Great Dao wielded by the Ancestral Dragon!'

The Great Dao is like a majestic divine mountain, its distinct colors of blue, yellow, red, white, and black spreading upwards from its base, penetrating the rocks, and finally converging at the mountain's summit at the end of the Great Dao, forming a boundless sea of ​​chaos. And directly above this sea of ​​chaos—

Lü Yang saw something familiar.

A mountain.

Beyond the mountains, there are countless Great Dao talismans circulating around the towering mountain standing on the chaotic sea. The higher one goes, the smaller and harder to see it becomes.

'【the other side】!'

Lu Yang lowered his eyelids, the intense forbidden knowledge assaulting his mind, making his skull vibrate, as if it would explode at any moment.

Fortunately, at that moment, the [Arctic Exorcism Institute] settled above his sea of ​​consciousness, firmly holding back the terrifying taboo that had almost caused him to explode and reopen his head. Its light seemed to breathe, flickering on and off, cycling repeatedly, and only after a long time did it finally return to calm, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.

That is the seal of the First Emperor.

'The Immortal Pivot is merely a facade. The true force suppressing the Ancestral Dragon, the force weighing down upon him, is the Other Shore. Similarly, the Ancestral Dragon is also the foundation of the Other Shore!'

Not only that.

Lü Yang felt that he might have guessed what the first generation of the Heaven-Mending Peak Master wanted to do.

'He also wants to illegally cross the border?'

'The Five Elements Dao of the Ancestral Dragon leads to the bottom of the Other Shore. Could it be possible, with enough skill, to sneak across and climb to the Other Shore?'
