Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 624 Acquiring the Sun, A Great Calamity Awaits?
At that moment, Lü Yang raised his hand high above his head.

This simple action seemed to carry immense weight, as if his hands were not empty, but rather holding an endless expanse of heaven and earth.

"Boom!"

The next second, the [Taiyin] that had just dealt with Immortal Lord Gu Ming reappeared, layers of iridescent light condensing, this time encompassing Lü Yang.

However, unlike the cold and murderous aura when dealing with Immortal Lord Gu Ming, this time the imagery that emerged was extremely intimate with Lü Yang, even resonating with him along with the imagery of [money]. Immediately afterwards, a graceful figure appeared in the moonlight, her face serene and her calm voice drifting out:

Are you sure you want to purchase the fruit?

"good."

Lu Yang nodded, but felt a strange unease in his heart: after all, in a sense, this was actually Tianfu's unique method of seeking wealth and ascending to the throne.

However, for a cultivator from the Heavenly Mansion to reach this point, it would inevitably take a lifetime and the depletion of the family fortune of three, ten, or even a hundred generations to finally obtain the huge sum of money needed to purchase a fruit position. But he achieved this in just three short years by speculating on the Worry-Free Talisman, even faster than in the Immortal Pivot.

"I want to prove that the sun is in the spring."

"But it's not for me, it's for my disciple." At this point, Lü Yang changed the subject and looked down: "Dao Xuan, come up here."

Wu Daoxuan: "???"

At this moment, not only Wu Daoxuan himself was stunned, but the other True Monarchs of the Outer Path Alliance were also stunned, and then jealousy suddenly appeared in their eyes.

How could it be him?
Everyone was fawning over Lord Minghe before, so why did Lord Minghe specifically choose him? Does he have some kind of back door to pull in?
This is unreasonable!

Unlike the others' jealousy, Wu Daoxuan, after a brief moment of confusion, reacted and his face immediately lit up with uncontrollable ecstasy.

The next second, he flew over on his escape light:

"Master! This, this position is for me?"

Wu Daoxuan's body trembled slightly. Although it was impossible for a True Monarch to have misheard, he still couldn't believe what he had just heard.

Until Lü Yang smiled and nodded:

"No doubt about it, this Sun Fruit level is for you. Not only that, in the future I will lead everyone to earn more money and buy more Fruit levels!"

After careful consideration, Lü Yang did not attempt to attain the Sun Fruit position himself.

The reason is simple: the sun is in a very high position in Tianfu, which is very likely to conflict with [Heavenly Fire], and at that time, his identity will be exposed.

"Of course, the money for buying the fruit position is a loan from me. Don't worry, I'll treat it as an interest-free loan. You can pay me back slowly after you become a True Monarch. Of course, I can't be completely without any guarantee. So, I'll take a small loss, and you can mortgage your [Mingtian] to me."

"Thank you Master!"

Wu Daoxuan bowed deeply and said sincerely, "As for [Mingtian], what kind of trashy heretics are they? Don't you dare get involved with them."

From this day forward, I am the noble and orthodox true ruler!

Without any hesitation, Wu Daoxuan severed his own Great Dao, separating the [Mingtian] from himself, and then threw himself into the sun without regard for his own safety.

"Deal done."

Seeing this, the stunningly beautiful woman who emerged from the moonlight nodded. However, just as Lü Yang thought she would leave—

".hehe."

Suddenly, the woman turned her beautiful face to the side, and a smile appeared on her flawless face: "I must thank you very much, junior brother."

"!!!"

Before Lü Yang could respond, the woman's figure disappeared in the moonlight, and then all the yin imagery vanished, leaving him standing there dumbfounded.

'Junior brother. She called me junior brother!?'

'Is she the Taiyin Immortal Venerable? The Taiyin Immortal Venerable is my senior brother/sister? Damn, she's from the Holy Sect? No, wait, this is the Heavenly Palace!'

For a moment, Lü Yang was completely bewildered. In his previous understanding, the Holy Sect's founder had sent him to Tianfu to carry out sabotage work behind enemy lines. But damn it, the most powerful Taiyin Immortal Venerable in Tianfu was a disciple of the Holy Sect? What was the point of sabotage then? He could just be incorporated into the Immortal Pivot.
'No, no, that's not right.'

Lu Yang thought of Ang Xiao. Not all disciples of the Holy Sect are loyal to the Holy Sect. Ang Xiao is like that, and this Taiyin Immortal Venerable may also be like that!

'【Angxiao】chosen the Underworld, while this Taiyin Immortal Venerable chose the Heavenly Palace?' It's true that the two are quite similar. The lord of the Underworld is undoubtedly amazing, and the Heavenly Palace is also the transformation of the body of the former Dao Lord after his death.

Both of them are at the Dao Lord level.

Thinking this, Lü Yang let out a heavy sigh: 'The Great Tribulation of a Thousand Years... perhaps it's not simply a battle of magic, or a struggle for something.'

It is a struggle over the Dao!

According to the "pseudo-history" recorded by the Holy Sect, the World-Honored One attained the Nascent Soul stage five thousand years ago. Five thousand years ago happened to be the end of the last great calamity. Although the specifics of the World-Honored One's actions are still unknown, he should have attained enlightenment during that last great calamity!

Of course, there are still many doubts.

For example, Lü Yang was never able to determine which era the Buddha lived in.

After all, theoretically he should have attained enlightenment five thousand years ago, but in reality he appeared as a Nascent Soul Dao Master tens of thousands of years ago.

However, due to the profound influence of the "soil on the city wall" inverting cause and effect, the history of the Buddha has been completely buried, and others have no way of knowing it.

However, one thing is certain:
"Even in this millennium-long calamity, there is a glimmer of hope. The victor takes all, and the vanquished are condemned. Ultimately, it is entirely possible that a Nascent Soul Dao Master could be born from this catastrophe!"

This is the true meaning of the great calamity of a thousand years!

For a thousand years, the True Lord has pursued the Dao, and only one person has been able to reach the ultimate sublimation and ascend to the highest realm.

Otherwise, how could it be worthy of the title "Great Calamity"? Besides, what else could make a True Monarch turn pale at the mere mention of it and strive so hard for it, but the Nascent Soul path?
At this moment, countless thoughts flooded Lu Yang's mind.

But finally, he let out a long sigh and regained his composure: 'Aiming too high is not advisable. The most urgent task right now is to take stock of what we've gained.'

With this thought in mind, Lü Yang calmed his mind.

A Talent for Excellence – [The Student as a Teacher]!
This talent, which had never truly come into play since its creation, was now finally giving full play to propel Lü Yang's spirit and energy.

Endless cultivation of the Dao constantly emerges.

If he hadn't been suppressing it so forcefully, the brilliance of [Heavenly Fire] would have been revealed right now. Even so, he still felt the surging power.

At the level of a True Lord, one's cultivation level often translates into power.

The deeper one's profound understanding of the imagery of the fruition, the higher one's spiritual attainment, and the stronger one's power.

Similarly, if one's cultivation is insufficient and one obtains strength beyond one's own cultivation through unconventional means, it is like a castle in the air, which may collapse at any time.

'It's time!'

The next second, with a thought, Lü Yang took the [Mingtian] fruit position that Wu Daoxuan had left behind into the Righteous Path Banner, and then commanded the cave heaven to swallow it in one gulp.

"Boom!"

Just like when he was refining the Righteous Path Banner, Lu Yang once again extracted a wisp of the imagery of [Heavenly Fire]. This time, the true treasure he was going to refine was the Tribulation Wave!

'Although the Righteous Path Banner has been refined into a true treasure, it's essentially just an improvement on its original capabilities, at most adding the wondrous power of [Education], which can strip others of their will. However, its effectiveness in combat is limited. What I need now is a true treasure that will give me a decisive advantage in battle!'

Without a doubt, the Tribulation Wave is the best choice.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang looked at the [Mingtian] fruit position he had just obtained and manipulated [Tianzhu Sixuan Cave Heaven] to dismantle and devour it little by little.

The next second, a series of images appeared in his eyes.

That was the residual imagery within the [Mingtian] position. The aura left behind by the previous holders of the [Mingtian] position was also being devoured by Lü Yang.

Soon, he had completely digested the fruit of his position.

Immediately afterwards, Lü Yang saw the first owner of [Mingtian], the heretical True Lord who had witnessed the death of the Dao Lord and whose body opened up the Heavenly Palace.

Then he froze.

Just after [Mingtian] was completely digested, a scattered golden light drifted down from the spot, from which a melodious chanting sound could be heard:
".Shi Xiu?"

Was the first owner of [Mingtian] a Bodhisattva?
　It seems I overestimated myself by working six hours. I can barely manage five hours. I'll continue tomorrow.
