Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 586 The First Signs of Calamity! (Fourth Update)

"return!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lü Yang unleashed the full power of the [Stripping] technique, seizing control of the Observation Mirror to prevent the other party from destroying the evidence.

After realizing that something was wrong with himself, the figure in the mirror became increasingly surprised. The originally blurry face gradually became clearer. However, to Lü Yang's surprise, he had never seen this face before. He could not deduce the cause and effect, and it was as if he was a person without cause or effect.

'An extraterrestrial cultivator.'

Lu Yang realized that only extraterrestrial cultivators, especially those who had never been to this desolate place before, could cause such a strange situation.

Just as Lü Yang was pondering this.

Suddenly, the figure in the mirror moved, and an ambiguous male and female voice echoed: "Good, good, good, as expected of the Immortal Pivot, it truly is a place where outstanding people emerge in great numbers."

Immortal Pivot?

In an instant, Lü Yang's pupils shrank, but the figure in the mirror had already made a hand seal and then struck out at him from afar, a burst of intense light suddenly erupting from the palm.

In that instant, Lü Yang seemed to see a magnificent sun hanging before his eyes. However, despite the intense light, a deep and bone-chilling cold followed. Wherever it passed, Lü Yang's magical power fell silent, and the iridescent colors formed by his imagery withered away.

'Is this...another image?'

Upon seeing this scene, Lü Yang could no longer suppress his curiosity, for he had never seen the imagery displayed in the mirror before!
Upon realizing this, he immediately stopped restraining himself.

With his magic fully unleashed and the imagery of "Stripping" pushed to its limit, he forcefully grabbed at the mirror, instantly causing the thoughts of the person reflected in the mirror to become turbulent.

Ultimately, it was just an image.

If the opponent's true form were here, there might still be a chance for a battle. However, how could a mere image possibly withstand Lü Yang's [Stripping]?

"What's mine, it's all mine!"

The next second, as the figure in the mirror dissipated, the imagery that the other party had just revealed was also completely seized by Lü Yang, and then countless insights arose:
'The sun governs the heavens, its qi transforms and circulates in accordance with the primordial order; the weather is calm, the earth's qi is still; when cold descends upon the vast sky, the yang qi ceases to command.'

"Boom!"

In an instant, Lü Yang felt a slight stinging pain between his brows, breaking free from that mysterious imagery, and his eyes immediately shone brightly:
'.nice one!'

Right after stripping away that image, Lü Yang clearly sensed that his [Heavenly Pillar Mystic Cave Heaven] had actually made very subtle progress!
This is incredible!

It should be understood that once a grotto-heaven is condensed, it is almost complete and difficult to continue to grow, unless an external path fruit position can be found and given to the grotto-heaven to devour.

'A non-Buddhist path attainment?'

Lü Yang thought for a moment, then shook his head: 'No, that's not right. It's not an external path attainment; this imagery is even comparable to that of a legitimate attainment! It's beyond what ordinary external paths can compare to. What lies behind it? A realm no less powerful than this broken place? Does such a realm truly exist?'

Lu Yang was stunned!

A super realm that could very well be far larger than the Xuanling Realm, the Wanwu Realm, or even the Seven Luminaries Heaven, and could even be compared to this wretched place!

'This doesn't make sense.'

'I've been restarting for over thirty years, and I've never encountered a similar situation in all my previous restarts. Why did it happen in this life of my own?'

After much thought, Lü Yang concluded that there was only one possibility.

'Because there are more True Lords now?'

"Because I proved the [Heavenly Fire] and Suohuan proved the [Spring Water], the number of True Lords increased, and the Qi mechanism became turbulent, which is why it attracted the attention of the heavens?"

Lu Yang stroked his chin, his expression growing increasingly serious. The sudden appearance of the Super Boundary Heaven involuntarily reminded him of another term he had heard of in his previous lives but had never encountered before:

A great calamity that will last for a thousand years.

"Previously, the 'Bodhisattva Baolian' threatened me with a thousand-year calamity, and I thought she was just exaggerating. But now it seems that might not be the case."

At the same time, this also resolved another of Lü Yang's doubts: 'No wonder. I said that as time goes by, achieving the Golden Core True Monarch level becomes increasingly difficult. Apart from the Holy Sect, no other faction seems to have any intention of cultivating new True Monarchs. Now it seems that the number of True Monarchs might be the benchmark for the Great Tribulation!'

The celestial sea of ​​light is boundless and vast, rarely seen on ordinary days.

However, when the number of True Lords in a certain realm exceeds a certain critical point, it will immediately attract a super realm of the same level, thus triggering a great calamity of a thousand years.

During the great calamity, even True Lords will perish.

Only when many people die, and the number of True Lords falls below the critical point again, will the great calamity end, and the two sides will separate once more, awaiting the next great calamity.
Is it possible?

Lu Yang fell into deep thought. The above was just his guess, and there must be some inaccuracies, but the general logical direction should be correct.

The key is the number of True Lords!
'No party wants a new True Lord to emerge, nor do they want to trigger a great calamity, since no one knows if they themselves will be the True Lord who dies in the calamity.'

The more Lü Yang thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed.

Then, he looked at the broken mirror in his hand. According to Han Qingyun's memory, he had found this celestial mirror by chance three months ago.

Three months ago, shortly after he proved [Heavenly Fire]!

".interesting."

For a moment, Lü Yang became excited. Just as he had said to the [Lotus Hidden Treasure Bodhisattva], he was not afraid of the coming of the great calamity of a thousand years.

Rather, it's quite the opposite.

"Once you reach the True Lord realm, if you still want to advance rapidly, the only way is to use your inner celestial realm to devour external Path fruits, creating a path to the heavens from within the outer heavens!"

Thinking of this, Lü Yang's thoughts shifted, and he thought of another matter: 'Speaking of which, the [Destiny Master] position in the Xuanling Realm seems quite suitable for me. If I could obtain it and consume it, it might be of great benefit to me. I just don't know if the Sword Pavilion has already used it.'

'Besides that, there's also the Holy Sect's Myriad Martial Realm.'

Having already cultivated to the level of [Heaven], a second-grade true skill, he could completely transform [Ten Thousand Martial Realms] into his own and integrate it into his own cave heaven.

'The Myriad Martial Realm and the Profound Spirit Realm—they might be the key to my rapid cultivation advancement in a short time!'

Upon realizing this, Lü Yang's expression changed drastically:

'In the past, I might not have been in such a hurry; I could have let things develop gradually. But if this great calamity is truly imminent, I won't have time to wait.'

Lü Yang stood up, having already made his decision.

Let's go to the Holy Sect first!

'Within the Sword Pavilion, the Demon-Slaying Master has no say and may even be ostracized, not to mention that the Ancestor has the sworn enemy, the True Lord Chengtian Zhengde.'

It's not safe to go there rashly.

In comparison, the Holy Sect is much more reliable. True Monarch Feixue is the only one in power and has clearly expressed goodwill towards him. Lü Yang felt that it was worth talking to.

Moreover, he had many things he wanted to ask True Lord Feixue. Now that Chongguang had ascended to the throne, he believed that it wouldn't be long before this True Lord, who was known as the number one fighter in five thousand years, would break through to the late Golden Core stage. It was conceivable that the knowledge he could learn from her would be immeasurable!
　I'm going to update at 4 AM today, just getting a feel for things beforehand.
