Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1199 Mountain Fire, One Day to Become a True Monarch!

The sky was ravaged by fire, and the mountains burned.

Inside the temple and the jade-stone interior, Lü Yang stood with his hands behind his back. As he carved out the small hill where the Lao Jun Temple was located, a sense of complete control arose within him.

At this moment, every blade of grass, every tree, every flower, and every leaf on this mountain.

They are all extensions of his will.

With this thought in mind, he slowly spoke, and the melodious Daoist voice instantly resounded in the ears of everyone in the Laozi Temple, his words carrying the essence of Heaven and the power of law:
"Come!"

In an instant, everything in the mountain lit up with light, and all things in heaven and earth suddenly appeared in a completely different form from the real world. Countless images manifested magnificent and colorful brilliance, all gathering around Lü Yang, approaching him intimately, allowing him to choose.

These are all Heavenly Generals and Earthly Fiends.

All the elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth are present. As long as he wants, he can easily summon any of the celestial and terrestrial elements within this small world under his control.

Which one should I choose?

Lu Yang fell into a brief moment of contemplation. After resolving the troubles with the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends, the position would be his for the taking, depending on his own will.

'The Ancestral Dragon's innate divine power is merely a cover, used to conceal the cause and effect for me, lest my sensing of the commotion in the Heavenly Palace be too great and discovered by the Dao Lord. Since this is the case, considering that the Divine Offering needs to be spread, the chosen position is extremely important in order to cover up the cause and effect of this action.'

Thinking of this, a name immediately came to mind:
[Heavenly Fire]

'To establish dominion over the world, to set the rules for the universe, to use it as cover for me—it's practically perfect. The only flaw is that, currently, I seem unable to prove it.'

Because this body, as a celestial spirit, is based on the element of wood.

The Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches corresponding to "Heavenly Fire" are Earth (戊), Fire (午), Earth (己), and Earth (未), but none of them are Wood (甲), which is a bit awkward.

However, Lü Yang quickly came up with a solution.

'Jump to the next position.'

After refining Lingxiao's metal element, he naturally also obtained the corresponding information: back then, Lingxiao jumped from the [Pine and Cypress Tree] to the [Great Forest Tree]!
This is a classic case of getting on the train first and buying the ticket later.

This method makes it easier to attain a higher level of enlightenment. Its advantage is that it can disregard the cultivation level corresponding to that level. Back then, Lingxiao had no cultivation knowledge of the [Great Forest Wood] at all.

But he still succeeded.

Of course, the downside is that if you don't cultivate your skills, even if you succeed, you will gradually be rejected by the new level of attainment over time.

Of course, this shortcoming was insignificant to Ling Xiao. Although he had jumped to a higher level, he not only quickly mastered the [Great Forest Wood] after that, but also innovated and, by borrowing the changes between official history and pseudo-history, completed the ritual of fruition sublimation with his own characteristic of "not existing in history".

'Compared to him, I don't have to go through so much trouble.'

Lü Yang pondered in his heart:

'I already possess the cultivation of [Heavenly Fire], so switching positions will be even easier for me than for him. The question is which level is easier to switch to.'

At this thought, endless mysteries appeared in Lü Yang's eyes, and the vast amount of Daoist knowledge he had previously accumulated surged within his mind:
"【Covered Lamp Fire】is a fire that illuminates the night in the human world; it is unfit for its place, and can only be used as a pretense, for there is no way to escape it."

"The Thunderbolt Fire is a fire transformed from the Dragon God, serving as the king's vanguard; how can it be overstepped? Absolutely not."

"The fire in the furnace is trapped by metal; how can it suspend itself in the sky?"

"The 'mountain fire' is weak and feeble, its light cannot reach far, and its power lies in concealing its brilliance. It is most incompatible with the 'heavenly fire,' for the World Honored One used his position to force it."

Thinking of this, Lü Yang couldn't help but shake his head.

When the World-Honored One attained enlightenment, he transformed into the "Radiant Light Lord of the World," using the "Fire from the Mountain" to borrow the radiance of the heavens and holding the "Fire from Heaven," thus proving the existence of cause and effect.

"Now it seems that this false adherence is not using the 'heavenly fire' at all; on the contrary, it is harming the 'heavenly fire,' or more precisely, harming the fixed imagery within it. Indeed, the Buddha's original intention was to prove 'variables,' and diminishing the fixed imagery suits his purpose perfectly!"

This is the Buddha.

After all, his foundation wasn't the Cave Heaven Technique; he only used it to attain enlightenment. If someone else had done the same, they would have been killed by the Heavenly Fire long ago.

After much thought, only one option seemed feasible.

'【Mountain Fire】.' Regarding this Dao attainment, Lü Yang only had the Foundation Establishment level of cultivation, which he obtained after settling accounts with Wu Tai'an, the Prince of Zhennan of the Dao Court.

However, this does not prevent him from proving it. After all, what he is cultivating now is not the Cave Heaven Method, but the Ancestral Dragon's innate divine method. It does not require cultivation at all. He can leave the operation to the heavens and earth. The only thing he needs to do is to make the small world under his control accelerate its gestation speed.

"It's you!"

With this thought in mind, Lü Yang immediately selected the remaining three Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends corresponding to [Mountain Fire], and then merged them all into the jade stone he was inhabiting.

Soon, the four supernatural powers appeared one after another.

Jia wood, [does not flee south].

戌土, 【升阳地】.

Yi Wood, [fallen dust].

Hai Water, [Gong Lei Men].

"Jia wood is yang in nature, and fire relies on wood to be born. Yi wood is wind, and wind is born from wood but destroys wood in return, further fueling the fire. Xu earth is the fire storehouse, accumulating the fire's power in the storehouse."

"Hai represents a hanging river and a heavenly gate."

"Then fire rose from the ground, wood became fuel, and earth became a storehouse. Its power passed through the heavenly gate and rushed toward the sun, and thus the wild was burned and the prairie was engulfed, burning as far as the eye could see, as bright as the setting sun on the mountaintop."

"It's called 'Mountain Top Fire'!"

In an instant, Lü Yang had already transformed from the initial Jiamu Immortal Spirit, integrating the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends, into a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, only lacking a Natal Spirit to reach perfection!
Millions of years of gestation have vanished in an instant.

Only then did Lü Yang raise his head, raising all four divine powers together, the boiling light of the divine powers forming a thin curtain in the cause and effect.

Under its cover, Lü Yang's thoughts soared to the heavens, finally resonating for a moment with the [Heavenly Palace] located outside the false history and beyond the sea of ​​light.

Immediately afterwards, a divine power descended from the sky.

It is precisely the [Revolution of Life]!
To avoid being detected by the Dao Lord, no great power remained within the divine ability, but that was enough. Lü Yang quickly absorbed it and transformed it into his own life essence.

The Five Supernatural Powers are Perfected!
Above the sky, a magnificent fruit appeared, like the setting sun over a river, which was the [Mountain Fire], reflecting its ever-increasing aura.

In an instant, Lü Yang's figure disappeared.

The jade shattered, and the old man with a pale face and white hair strolled out, his gaze indifferent. Riding on the long staircase formed by the five supernatural powers, he entered the stars in the sky in the blink of an eye.

At that moment, the flames that had spread like wildfire were seen everywhere in the world.

One day you will become a true lord!

"what!"

The next second, a roar came from the young Qi Refiner inside the temple, and then a light and shadow in the shape of a young dragon was forcibly extracted.

"you"

The dragon seed was awakened, and the collision between the mysteries immediately attracted the attention of the Dragon Lord. A ferocious and savage look suddenly appeared in the young dragon's eyes.

However, Lü Yang gave him no chance to react. Above the sky, the [Mountain Fire] shone brightly, and the setting sun cascaded down like blood.

"【Running towards the sun】".

The fruition of 【Mountain Fire】is profound!
A lone plume of smoke rises straight from the desert, the setting sun hangs round over the long river, and the boundless scorched earth engulfs the dragon seed within it, with only a furious roar echoing between heaven and earth:

"Fellow Daoist, you have already defied the Heavenly Emperor. If you eliminate my dragon offspring, there will truly be no turning back!"

"A pack of stray dogs, a bunch of dead bastards."

Lu Yang remained indifferent, his five fingers clasped together, and the burning plain collapsed instantly, turning the dragon seed, along with a trace of the mysterious [Great Sea Water], into ashes.

"What can they do to me?"
