Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1150 A First Glimpse of Variables
Within the Heavenly Palace.

Having just woken up, Suo Huan let out a long breath, looked at Lü Yang with some fatigue, and smiled, "Fortunately, I didn't fail in my mission; I managed to hold on by a narrow margin."

"Fellow Daoist, you've worked hard."

Lu Yang decisively stepped forward to help Suo Huan up and said in a deep voice, "In any case, the fact that the path of cultivation can be continued is a good thing for you, fellow Daoist."

Moreover, although the Conferred God Technique has been adopted, the original grotto-heaven will not disappear. The long-cherished [World Ruins] may even be able to go a step further, transforming from a grotto-heaven into a true world, allowing this former homeland to shine with new brilliance. This can be considered a win-win situation.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang decided to strike while the iron was hot and immediately looked at Empress Xiao.

"Hmm, then I'll try [Divine Feast]."

Empress Xiao made the choice that Lü Yang had not expected, after all, the [Divine Offering] was a supernatural power that he created after referring to the incense and divine way.

This perfectly suits Empress Xiao.

Furthermore, since the [Divine Offering] now senses [Fate], which happens to be connected with the Daoist Court, it is a perfect match for Empress Xiao.

Soon, Empress Xiao entered a meditative state.

Lu Yang used the same trick again, following her to sense the location of the [Fate]. However, this time, the destination was no longer the [Sea of ​​Bitterness].

What he saw was a chaotic void. Almost instantly, Lü Yang recognized his location as Xu Ming! Looking down, he saw the sea of ​​light appearing in the world, and looking up, he saw a boundless, all-encompassing net, which was none other than the [Heavenly Dao]. Such a sight made Lü Yang frown.

'Indeed, destiny lies within the Heavenly Way.'

Of the five celestial numbers, only the [Variable] is missing, and the [Calamity] has no Dao Master, which is why it is drowning in the deepest part of the [Sea of ​​Bitterness].

The rest are all owned.

Both "fate" and "destiny" are within the "Way of Heaven," while "predestination" likely resides on the "other shore." Trying to capture its essence is extremely difficult.

But it's not impossible.

'Although the main body of the Great Dao cannot be accessed, as the Dao Lord makes moves in the mortal world, there will always be residual images. Extracting these images is sufficient.'

If it were someone else, they might be helpless in this situation.

After all, the will of Heaven has always been difficult to fathom, and the moves of the Dao Master are not something a mere cultivator could fathom. To guess wildly would only lead one into the Dao Master's trap.

However, Lü Yang was different.

After all, he was extremely familiar with these things.

'The Sword Lord's move was Demon Slayer, Cang Hao's move was Emperor Cang, and the First Saint's move was Flying Snow and Ancestral Dragon. These people must all have corresponding symbolic meanings.'

'No, wait.'

Thinking of this, Lü Yang's eyes suddenly brightened: 'The Sword Lord's move wasn't just against the Demon-Slaying Immortal, but also against another person—a discarded pawn whose usefulness had been exhausted.'

Chengtian Zhengde Zhenjun!

The most mediocre True Lord blocked the paths of both the Listening Ancestor and the Demon-Slaying True Man, which is quite absurd. There must be an image of "fate" on him!

This was even admitted by Sword Master himself.

In the previous life, when Sword Lord was reaping the benefits of Sword Pavilion, he personally said that True Lord Chengtian Zhengde was a pawn. Under those circumstances, he should not have been speaking carelessly.

Besides these, there are also the Five Elements!

Lu Yang's thoughts raced, and he quickly came up with another crucial point.

The imagery of the Five Elements Seal and the Five Great Numbers still resonates today, not to mention the Five Elements Supreme Fruit of the Immortal Pivot, all of which are related to the Five Great Numbers.

After a moment's thought, Lü Yang returned to the Heavenly Palace with Empress Xiao. He did not act rashly, as these Dao Lords needed time to plan their moves and could not be rushed, otherwise they would only alert the enemy. It was best to use Mu Changsheng's help and resolve the issue under the guise of the Heavenly Palace.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang returned to the Great Luo Heaven.

This time, he held up a crimson light in his palm, which was none other than the [Life-Controlling Transformation]. This was the only divine power he did not choose to delegate.

It is simply because it responds to variables.

Whether it's the Heavenly Palace or the Investiture of the Gods, the ultimate goal is to overthrow the First Sage's Other Shore and Grotto Heaven Law, and break the Fate.

Such a crucial supernatural power must never be delegated.

Otherwise, if it falls into the hands of someone, especially the First Saint, then there will be big trouble.

However, speaking of which, as the undisputed number one path in the Guanghai, where exactly does the "variable" lie? Is it, like the "calamity," in the "sea of ​​suffering"?
With this question in mind, Lü Yang gradually activated the [Life-Controlling Technique]. "Let me see."

In an instant, Lü Yang's eyes were engulfed by endless crimson light, his mind immersed in it. Gazing into the distance, he seemed to see a magnificent net.

The great web of cause and effect.

"No, that's not right. The causal network is just a subordinate of the variable. It is a product of decay and related to the variable, but it is not that big."

Lu Yang immediately thought of the World Honored One. Recalling those days, the World Honored One attained enlightenment and then, spanning 129,600 years, changed the outcome of the Great War of the Dao Lords. From any perspective, this was a world-changing "variable." At least from the beginning, what he wanted to prove was this "variable"!
"This should also be one of the plans of the First Sage at that time."

"By using the World Honored One's hand, while killing the Chief of Evil, he also brought the [Variable] into the world, allowing us to see its true form. I can only say, he truly lives up to his reputation as an old beast."

For capable people, use them to the fullest extent possible, as long as they don't die.

However, it is clear that this plan failed.

[Variable] He may have responded to the Buddha's call and shown him favor, but he did not appear. Therefore, in the end, the Buddha could only use [cause and effect] to attain enlightenment.

It's a matter of settling for second best.

“I am perhaps in the same situation that the Buddha was in.”

He could clearly respond to the "variable," but he couldn't find the location of the "variable" using it. The other party was like a cold fairy, not even glancing at him.

"Why is this so?"

With this question in mind, Lü Yang withdrew from the perception of [Destiny Reform] and then made his way to the Mi Luo Palace, determined to put his extraordinary wisdom to use.

"The patriarch taught me!"

Lu Yang sincerely explained the problems he had encountered, and after listening to his story, Master Tingyou frowned and fell into deep thought.

After a long pause, he said somewhat hesitantly:

"Perhaps it's a matter of objectives."

"Target?" Lu Yang was taken aback.

Master Tingyou nodded and continued, "Have you noticed that your Heavenly Palace and the Conferred God Technique actually lack a clearer objective?"

"The Underworld is for the reincarnation of all beings, the Heavenly Dao is for controlling the Sea of ​​Light, the Other Shore is for elevating the Dao Lord, and the Grotto Heaven Method is for restricting all cultivators in the world. What about your Heavenly Palace and the Conferring of Gods Method? What are their goals? What are their philosophies? Seeking the Dao, seeking the Dao, but without the Dao, what is there to seek?"

Lü Yang frowned deeply:

"No, my God Conferring Method and the [Heavenly Palace] have a very clear goal, which has never changed from the beginning: to overthrow the Cave Heaven Method and the [Other Shore].

"What happens after that?"

".ah?"

Under Lü Yang's surprised gaze, Ancestor Tingyou said seriously, "Even if you overthrow the [Other Shore] and the Cave Heaven Method, what will your lineage bring?"

"To overthrow without building is not change, but calamity."

"I think if you want the [Variable] to appear for you, you have to make real changes to the Sea of ​​Light. Light sensing is useless."

[Variables] are never just empty words.

The principle is not hard to understand; Lu Yang was simply blinded by a leaf before.

Once pointed out, he suddenly understood: 'So that's why the World Honored One failed? Because the variables he triggered, from beginning to end, only targeted Si Chong.'

What kind of "variable" is this?
A true "variable" must have a profound and qualitative impact on the entire Sea of ​​Light, and so far only one person has achieved this.

Si Chong.

Si Chong preached the Dao throughout the world, opening up the ancient path of Daoism and benefiting all beings in Guanghai. In his time, he truly influenced and changed everyone in Guanghai.

Unfortunately, Si Chong has his own path and has no interest in [variables].

“Apart from him, even Chu Sheng and Dao Tianqi are a little lacking.”

"After all, the Underworld has not expanded to the entire Sea of ​​Light, and the Cave Heaven Method has not become the mainstream of the Sea of ​​Light. The Dao of Magic Power and the Dao of Magic Techniques still have residual influence."
