Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 540 Reversing the Divine Earth!

Cultivation is not just about refining qi, comprehending the Dao, or cultivating truth.

Governing a country is also a form of self-cultivation.

At least for [Heavenly Fire], managing countless affairs daily, harmonizing yin and yang, and carrying the weight of the entire land on his shoulders is actually a form of cultivation.

The Tianwu Palace stands atop the red steps.

Lu Yang slowly stretched out his hands, and with the blessing of the [Immortal Kingdom Dao Law], Jiangdong, Jiangbei, Jiangxi, and even overseas were now woven into this great net.

Never before had Lü Yang's senses been so clear:
"The Daoting is an extension of my hands."

Outside of the [Immortal Kingdom's Laws], Jiangnan, the only region unaffected, was also secretly infiltrated by the [Eternal Paradise] left behind by Ancestor Tingyou.

A month later, the new law was promulgated.

The content spread throughout the world directly through the [Immortal Kingdom Dao Laws], instantly causing a huge uproar, because no one expected that Lü Yang would actually be serious!

But upon closer reflection, it wasn't so hard to accept. After all, Lü Yang had even eradicated the Buddhist and Taoist lineages; what in this world wouldn't he dare to do? Moreover, he suppressed the Pure Land, yet the World Honored One didn't personally intervene, seemingly tacitly approving of the matter, further highlighting the immense power and influence of this demonic dragon.

To put it bluntly, we can't afford to mess with them.

Under such circumstances, with Jiangdong as the center, the new laws were quickly spread throughout the world through the [Immortal Kingdom Dao Laws], causing turmoil wherever they went.

As for the content of the new law, it's actually quite simple:
The mortal and immortal realms are separated. Mortals live below, where they establish academies so that everyone can cultivate the Dao and seek immortality. Cultivators live above, using the resources provided by mortals to cultivate themselves.

Like a pyramid.

Mortals are like ants and insects, fed with grains, cattle, sheep, and houses that cultivators look down upon, and then given a path to advancement called "cultivation of immortality."

Above that are Qi Refining and Foundation Building, with further subdivisions based on realm.

This exploitation continues layer by layer, with those at the bottom supporting those at the top, and ultimately everyone supporting the one at the very top.

"that's me!"

Although the new law has many details, its underlying logic is only one:
"Under my rule, all beings are equal, and talent is the only criterion for advancement. Whether they are mortals, Qi cultivators, or Foundation Establishers, they are all promising talents under my command!"

Most people agree on this point:
"What Dao Ting Huanming Emperor? This dragon is definitely a spy for the Holy Sect!"

Of course, such rumors are handled by the loyal officials of the Imperial City Guard. Master Lü is too sensitive to listen to the foul language of these trolls.

Lü Yang was unconcerned about the uproar caused by the new law.

After all, the Dao Court, the Holy Sect, and overseas forces are joining forces. Who can stop them under such circumstances? If we have to say, then it's only the Sword Pavilion in Jiangnan.

The problem is that if Lü Yang's new law is followed, ordinary people can be protected by the "Immortal Kingdom's Laws". After all, there is not much to exploit from ordinary people. Therefore, cultivators are the ones who are exploited the most by the new law. Moreover, the higher the realm, the more ruthless the exploitation is, including cultivation, spiritual materials, and cultivation techniques.

Although some people resisted, they were all suppressed by Lü Yang.

"What a joke! Looking across the world, who is more lenient towards these cultivators than me? Without my mercy in sparing their lives, where would so many cultivators come from?"

Therefore, the result is self-evident.

Despite the opposition, the Demon-Slaying Master showed no intention of interfering and even privately asked Lü Yang if the new laws could be implemented in Jiangnan as well.

Time flies, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Ten years may seem like a long time, but in retrospect, it was just a blink of an eye. Yet, tremendous changes have taken place in the five regions of the world.

Tianwu City.

Today, Jiangdong Road has been officially renamed "Huanming City". Inside the city, a towering building that seems to reach the sky sits in the center of the palace.

Its name is "Zhaixinglou" (Star-Picking Tower).

As its name suggests, this tall building is essentially a spiritual treasure. From bottom to top, each floor is inscribed with countless formations. The weakest person to inscribe them is at the early Foundation Establishment stage. These formations combine and pile up, eventually forming a large formation at the top of the [Star-Picking Tower].

[Ascension to Immortality Array]!
The formation is ranked fourth grade, but with the blessing of the [Immortal Kingdom Dao Law], it is comparable to the third grade. It is a secret formation of the Tianwu royal family, specially prepared for the crown prince to seek gold.

Being in the formation, flying to the blessed land can save three-tenths of your magic power.

In addition, with the assistance of the formation, cultivators can more clearly sense the location of the fruit position. This formation alone adds at least 10% to their chances of winning.

Moreover, this immortal formation has another mysterious aspect.

That is, the rarer the materials used and the more array patterns inscribed, the stronger the effect of the immortal array in assisting in the pursuit of gold, up to a maximum increase of 30% in the chances of success. This array has played an indispensable role in the successful succession of successive crown princes of the Dao Court.

However, because this immortal array is extremely expensive, even the crown prince can only use the most basic array configuration to assist in seeking gold in most cases.

However, it was different for Lü Yang. After all, he had the support of cultivators from the five regions of the world, and he had no shortage of spiritual materials and array patterns. Therefore, he directly upgraded the array to its top level and even spent a huge sum of money to build a [Star-Picking Tower] to suppress the array eye and further enhance the power of the array.

At this moment, at the top of the Star-Picking Tower.

At the top of the Star-Picking Tower stands an open-air platform, and Lü Yang stands in the center of the platform, quietly breathing in spiritual energy.

"Whoosh!"

This place rises straight into the clouds, and should be a place where the wind whips up a sea of ​​clouds. But when the fierce wind falls on this rooftop, it falls into a state of tranquility, like a subject meeting his king.

'Where exactly is it lacking?'

Lü Yang asked himself these questions.

After ten years of experience, he believes he has achieved excellence in every aspect.

His metal nature is now complete, and the [Xuandu Blessed Land] has been completely fused with his Dao foundation. Furthermore, the five regions of the world have been largely covered by the new laws he has promoted.

Even so, his spiritual senses were still warning him, and the [Immortal Kingdom Laws] were still reminding him that he seemed to be missing the final step.

If this final step is not taken, the situation regarding gold remains uncertain.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He had seriously offended the World Honored One. If things really changed, the World Honored One would not let him off the hook.

Just then, a beam of light descended.

They suddenly separated, revealing Chongguang's face. His eyes, brimming with soaring sharpness, immediately fell upon Lü Yang, who stood with his hands behind his back.

'Very strong. Extremely strong!'

Chongguang frowned slightly. Ten years had passed, and he had witnessed Lü Yang's cultivation level change firsthand. Back then, he could sense Lü Yang's cultivation level and deduce many of his methods. He thought that although he was no match for him, he was at least capable of fighting him. However, now, he looked at Lü Yang again.

At first glance, he looks like an ordinary person.

With eyes closed, there is no awareness of anything, only emptiness.

This indescribable state, apart from Lü Yang now, he has only seen in one other person in the world: Ye Guangji, the Demon-Slaying Master.

'Practicing the ultimate foundation, returning to simplicity!'

Chongguang's pupils contracted sharply, knowing that this was a very subtle state, and those who could reach it either had attained a unique and special status or had some extraordinary destiny.

However, regardless of which one it is, once achieved, one's rank will be half a head higher than that of a Foundation Establishment True Person.

But apart from the Demon-Slaying True Man, only the Pure and Clear Flying Snow True Man had reached this level back then. Unexpectedly, Lü Yang also reached this level and became the third person!
After a moment of silence, Chongguang cupped his hands in a salute and said, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, on your great progress in cultivation."

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang shook his head, turned his back to Chongguang, and said leisurely:
"You flatter me. I don't seek gold; after all, I am but an ant."

Chongguang's eyes flickered slightly: "In that case, when do you plan to seek the gold, fellow Daoist? After ten years of accumulation, you should have resolved many hidden dangers in your cultivation."

Lü Yang smiled noncommittally:

"Look, he's in a hurry."

He understood Chongguang's meaning, of course. Chongguang's question about asking for gold was a pretense; what he really wanted to know was when he would reverse the Chen Earth so that Chongguang could ask for gold.

'Given Uncle-Master Chongguang's personality, he's probably already prepared for me to back out.'

However, he has no intention of breaking his promise.

With this thought in mind, Lü Yang finally turned around, revealing a pair of pupils that reflected the brilliance. If you looked closely, you could almost see the light and shadow of the sun and moon in them!

"It's better to choose a day than to hit it."

"Today, I will reverse the fate of Chentu on behalf of Fellow Daoist Chongguang."

Upon hearing this, Chongguang's expression changed slightly, revealing not excitement, but doubt: You demon dragon, are you really so kind as to help me?

Is there a hidden problem?
