Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 653 The Land of the Abyss
Lu Yang hid within the sea of ​​light, silently observing the small realm before him, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes: "There really was a Foundation Establishment cultivator here."

As far as the eye could see, there was a sea of ​​blood.

Amidst the blood-red light, a young man wearing an imperial crown and with one hand behind his back could be seen raising his right hand to firmly hold the falling fragment of the Boundary Heaven in his palm.

The opponent's cultivation level is not low.

Having achieved the completion of Foundation Establishment, his surging blood and qi condensed into a vast divine light that soared to the heavens and pierced the netherworlds, his status almost equal to that of the entire Lesser Heaven.

"It's my blood."

Lu Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, sensing a familiar cause and effect from the other party. Clearly, the other party's cultivation level must have been due to his blood.

To his surprise, the other party was not surrounded by supernatural powers, but only possessed soaring blood energy. This was clearly due to the garbage inheritance unique to the Lesser Realm Heaven. Without his own blood to enhance the other party's status, the other party would probably only reach the Qi Refining Perfection stage and not even reach the Foundation Establishment stage.

Even if it is achieved, there will still be significant problems.

"Without a legitimate lineage and lacking innate talent, the cultivators of this realm are clearly incapable of elevating their rank, yet they are forcibly burdened with powerful ranks that do not belong to them."

The most direct problem is that it shortens one's lifespan.

"It seems that the people in this world cultivate entirely based on my blood, which will shorten their lifespan."

"Even at the peak of Qi Refining, one's lifespan is at most a hundred years. After being suppressed by rank, it will be reduced to about a year, like a fleeting moment, and it is meaningless."

While pondering, Lü Yang had already approached that boundary sky.

However, the next second, a thought struck him:
"Hmm, this place."

With a flash of light, Lü Yang distanced himself from Jie Tian again, a look of surprise appearing in his eyes. Then, he sent a wisp of his divine sense into the area once more.

This time he saw it clearly. The divine sense, which was originally extremely agile and fluctuating every second, suddenly fell into a state of stillness after approaching that realm. No, rather than being still, it was as if its operating speed was slowed down by nearly ten thousand times out of thin air!
'Time imagery.'

Lu Yang's eyes widened in disbelief; he hadn't expected to see such a high-level item in a small realm. He then recalled his earlier actions:
'I didn't notice anything wrong just now.'

"But actually, my speed was probably slowed down by a factor of ten thousand. Yet, to me, all my actions and movements were exactly the same as usual."

Unbelievable!

Lu Yang's eyes lit up instantly as he realized the mystery: within this small realm, a year in the outside world could probably be used as ten thousand years!

At this moment, Lü Yang became even more curious.

"When did my blood fall into this place? It's only been a few years at most. But for the people of this world, it may have been tens of thousands of years!"

There could even be more!
After all, Lü Yang wasn't sure if this image of slowing down time would fluctuate; tens of thousands of years was just a conservative estimate, and hundreds of thousands of years wasn't impossible!
However, Lü Yang quickly realized what was happening and shook his head:
'No. Ultimately, it's just a change in perceived time; it doesn't actually slow down time. Therefore, it can't be used to extend lifespan, nor can it be used to aid cultivation.'

That's right, in this realm, five hundred years can be used as five million years.

But in reality, your lifespan is still five hundred years; you just feel like you've lived five million years. It's meaningless except for psychological comfort.

It can also be used for spiritual practice.

Because the cultivation speed has also slowed down over time, a supernatural power that you could master in a year outside might take ten thousand years in this realm.

What's the point?

"If I had to pinpoint its significance, it would be to offer some psychological comfort to those who are about to die of old age, allowing them to enjoy a peaceful old age."

Thinking of this, Lü Yang couldn't help but shake his head, and his originally fiery mood cooled down. He then simply activated his divine sense and fled towards the direction of the Boundary Heaven. Although he was not interested in the time imagery that enveloped the Boundary Heaven itself, he was very interested in its source.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, the young man in the imperial crown that Lü Yang had seen earlier took a deep breath and completely refined the fragments of the collapsed Boundary Heaven, storing them in his possession.

After a long while, he finally exhaled a deep breath:
"What a magnificent heaven beyond heavens!"

"Even though I have already secured the throne, it is still so difficult to capture him. If this outer heaven were to fall into the human world, it would surely be another great disaster."

Upon hearing this, a young man in a Taoist robe stepped forward quickly beside the crowned youth and said loudly, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! With a Heaven Beyond the Heavens as material, you can now forge an unparalleled imperial weapon. With this imperial weapon in hand, all forbidden zones will surely lie dormant, and Your Majesty will no longer need to worry about unrest." "It's just a temporary measure to maintain stability."

Upon hearing this, the young man in the imperial crown shook his head, a deep worry appearing in his eyes: "What good is being an emperor? In the end, one cannot achieve immortality, much less become a true immortal."

"True immortal?"

The young man in the Taoist robe shook his head upon hearing this: "The concept of immortals has existed since ancient times, but who has ever actually seen a real immortal? They are nothing but ethereal legends."

"You haven't attained the status of an Emperor, so you don't understand its mysteries." The young man in the imperial crown sighed. "True Immortals certainly exist! Every Emperor over the past hundred thousand years has known this perfectly well. It's just that our cultivation is shallow, and we are trapped in the mortal realm, which is why we rarely see True Immortals, and that's why these forbidden zones exist."

At this point, the young man from the Imperial Crown was filled with emotion.

In a daze, he seemed to return to the day when he attained imperial status, his blood and qi soared to the sky, and all the paths resonated in harmony, and he saw that drop of blood falling from the sky.

With just a drop of blood, he achieved the status of an emperor!
The terrifying life force contained in that drop of blood is something the young man with the imperial crown can never forget, and he can't believe just how powerful the owner of that drop of blood was.

Aside from the "immortal," I have no other thoughts.

For this reason, every emperor firmly believes in the existence of immortals and exhausts all their talents and courage, placing all their hopes on becoming an immortal.

Thinking of this, the young man in the imperial crown looked up again.

He strained his eyes, piercing through the celestial barrier, to gaze at the boundless shadows, thinking to himself: 'Without immortality, this realm will ultimately perish!'

Only by becoming an immortal can one save the world!
While the young man in the imperial crown was pondering silently, the young man in the Taoist robe beside him and the disciples below were busy running around, creating a lively scene.

However, no one noticed that a kind-looking man had suddenly appeared beside the young man in the imperial crown, who should have been alone in the crowd. He stood there silently, but neither the young man in the imperial crown nor anyone else paid any attention to his presence.

But this is normal.

After all, as a Golden Core True Monarch, let alone a divine thought, even a fart could kill a Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator, so how could a mere lower-level cultivator detect it?

"interesting."

Lu Yang looked up at the sky, his face showing surprise: "It was just a mouthful of blood, but combined with the time imagery of this world, it actually produced such a wonderful change."

His gaze went straight into the depths of the heavens.

What came into view was a mass of flowing blood, which had completely merged with the boundary sky, and the rising blood energy had replaced the spiritual energy of the boundary sky.

'Mortals in this world who cultivate qi and blood all have short lifespans.'

'Life is like that of a mayfly, lasting only a day or two, but because time slows down here, they don't see it as a problem.'

"Besides, the vitality in their blood makes their reproduction extremely easy and rapid, thus preventing them from being suppressed by my blood and ultimately becoming extinct. It's a miracle that this realm can still maintain such vigorous vitality!"

The more Lü Yang thought about it, the more surprised he became.

Because the so-called "miracle" can be either a coincidence or a deliberate act. Without his own blood, what would have become of this world?

Destruction is inevitable.

However, thanks to his blood, this realm not only gave birth to a powerful cultivation civilization, but also attracted him due to karmic connections.

The life-or-death crisis of Jie Tian was nothing to him.

As a result, Jie Tian, ​​who should have been doomed, unexpectedly found a way out. Such a cause and effect made it hard for Lü Yang to believe that it was purely a coincidence.

"Let's see again."

Lu Yang calmed himself down. Although he was technically a fisherman in this realm, he still took a serious attitude because of the World Honored One's lesson.

When frying fish, you have to give it your all!
Moreover, if there really is a powerful being behind this place manipulating cause and effect, then as long as he investigates patiently, he will definitely gain a lot here!
