There are no ancestors at all; I made them all up.

Chapter 122 I Won't Understand If It's Not Difficult [First Update]

On the fake Obsidian Island.

As Xuan Su finished speaking, the glimmer of hope that had just ignited in everyone's hearts instantly dimmed.

"Such talent is required; how can one find it here?" Master Jiyue frowned, but suddenly a thought struck her.

“Junior brother, why don’t you give it a try?” At this moment, Master Hanjing stepped forward. “When you traversed the void on the Rainbow Bridge, you comprehended the mysteries of space, and you also possess the Xuan Yin Body, proving the Great Dao in the Guanghan Dao Realm! This predicament may only be resolved by you!”

These words were like a wake-up call, and everyone turned to look at Chen Qing.

As the gazes of the crowd suddenly focused on him, Chen Qing's mind raced.

He had never heard of the "Nine Nether Void Method" that Xuan Su mentioned, but it sounded like a profound method. Even if his talent and comprehension were both top-notch, it would still take chances for him to suddenly comprehend it, unless he could enter the dream again and force himself to comprehend it by using the Dao traces.

However, the situation is currently dire. The binding power emanating from the fake moon is silently receding, and it may not be able to hold out for several hours before it pulls them toward the Nascent Soul behind the scenes. Chen Qing will need several more days to wake up!

"Shouldn't we study this method of waking up early? Reading more books in peacetime could allow for a breakthrough in battle during a dream, and it could even be used as a backup plan."

However, this is something that can only be addressed later.

At that moment, Xuan Su frowned slightly, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes.

She possessed innate wisdom and knew that the "Nine Nether Void Technique" was one of the Taiyin Sect's most treasured secrets, not to be lightly taught, nor could it be mastered overnight. However, in their current desperate situation, time was of the essence! Once the Nascent Soul Daoist training ground was completely closed, they would be nothing more than fish on a chopping block!

Thinking of Ji Ming of the Hidden Star Sect, who was originally going to the sect to exchange teachings, Xuan Su finally made a decision.

She looked at Chen Qing and said in a deep voice, "Fellow Daoist Jiming, this method is profound. It requires the Taiyin Origin as a guide to sense the most subtle gaps in the void..." She spoke very quickly, using her divine sense to transmit the core key points and operating routes of the "Nine Nether Void Method" to him.

Chen Qing closed his eyes and concentrated, the Tathagata talisman flowing in his Niwan Palace, trying his best to decipher the profound and obscure Dharma.

A few breaths later, subtle ripples appeared in the space around him, as if water droplets were falling into a deep pool.

Upon seeing this, Xuan Su's surprise and doubt turned into a glimmer of hope.

However, the ripples were fleeting and could not be stabilized at all.

Xuan Su shook his head and sighed softly: "Fellow Daoist's comprehension is extraordinary. You grasped the essence of the method at a glance, but without the guidance of inheritance and the sedimentation of time, it is just a mirage, not something that can be achieved overnight. We... must find another method."

Upon hearing this, the newly ignited flame of hope was mercilessly extinguished once again.

Chen Qing frowned, feeling that his understanding was indeed lacking. He had vaguely grasped the idea, but it still needed time to settle.

But right now, what they lack most is time.

"boom--"

A buzzing sound came from all directions, and the entire illusory realm trembled!
Xuan Su's expression changed drastically: "This place has probably been drawn in by the Nascent Soul Daoist Temple! Time is running out!"

Now, even Chen Qing felt a sense of urgency!

"If one can wake up and enter a dream at this time, one can gain enlightenment by referring to the words in the Dao Yan Lu. But if one cannot wake up, one can only be trapped by the limitations of the words such as 'obstructing the eyes and confusing the mind, breaking through falsehoods and penetrating truth, touching the mysteries of Taiyin,' hmm?"

Suddenly, an idea struck him.

"Blinding the eyes and confusing the mind, breaking through illusions and revealing the truth, touching upon the profound mysteries of the Taiyin! The profound mysteries of the Taiyin! Taiyin!"

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Chen Qing!
If these conditions are all set, can the meaning of this sentence be realized in a logical and reasonable way?

Commonly known as shooting the arrow first and then drawing the target.

With this thought in mind, he suddenly looked at Xuan Su and asked, "Fellow Daoist Xuan Su, does your sect's 'Nine Nether Void Method' contain the true meaning of Taiyin?"

Although Xuan Su did not understand its meaning, he still nodded and said, "Of course, this method was enlightened by the patriarch through observing the Nine Netherworlds and penetrating the void."

“Alright!” Chen Qing immediately said, “Fellow Daoist, please condense the core principles of this method into words using your divine sense! But! You must apply layers of profound Yin restrictions and lay down deceptive and confusing barriers upon it! Disguise it as something shrouded in mystery, obscure and difficult to understand, even contradictory, leading people astray! Finally, name it directly—”

He paused, then said, word by word, "The Secret Divine Powers and Mysterious Methods of the Taiyin Sect!"

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent!

Everyone's face was full of confusion and bewilderment.

Xuan Su also looked bewildered, not understanding what was going on.

Creating your own illusions? Drawing a circle around yourself and imprisoning yourself?
What is this going to do?
"Junior brother, what are you doing..." Master Jiyue couldn't help but speak, but Master Hanjing raised his hand to stop him.

"Excellent!" Master Hanjing clapped his hands and laughed, already understanding. "The smoother the road, the slower his steps; the denser the thorns and the thicker the fog, the more he can overcome them and see the source!"

"..."

Even with the composure of a Golden Core cultivator, Ji Yue and You Chan were completely dumbfounded and speechless.

Chen Qing smiled bitterly to himself, but he couldn't refute it, otherwise he really would have no way to explain. So he could only go along with it and say, "Fellow Daoist Xuan Su, in this urgent situation, please put pen to paper quickly!"

Xuan Su gave Chen Qing a deep look, then gritted her teeth, her fingertips flashing with a dark light as she drew a line in the air!
In an instant, countless bizarre runes, sometimes blurry and dissipating, sometimes overlapping and intertwining, appeared out of thin air! Between the runes, gray mist rose, obscuring the already incomprehensible characters.

The entire "Dharma Gate" exudes an atmosphere of chaos, obscurity, and irritation.

Chen Qing glanced at it and thought to himself, "This satisfies the 'illusion and confusion' requirement."

After finishing a profound essay, Xuan Su flicked her finger, revealing the title and name—

"The Secret and Mysterious Methods of the Taiyin Sect!"
Upon seeing this, Chen Qing thought to himself, "The 'Taiyin Mystery' is here too."

"Fellow Daoist Jiming, please observe!" With a flick of Xuan Su's fingertip, this distorted, chaotic, and strangely named "secret technique" appeared before Chen Qing's eyes.

Upon reading this, even Elder Youchan felt slightly dizzy, as if looking at it too long would cause her to lose her mind due to its chaotic aura. "Only 'Dispelling Illusions and Penetrating Truth' is missing!" Chen Qing thought to himself, focusing his gaze. In his Niwan Palace, the Tathagata Talisman, restored to its original state, suddenly flickered! It burst forth with a pure, crystal-clear light that could see through all laws and pierce through illusion!
"Blinding the eye and confusing the mind... Breaking through illusions and revealing the truth... The profound mystery of the Taiyin..."

The words of the Daoyanlu manifested in the unseen realm!
Suddenly, the "poisonous text" in front of Chen Qing, which had been heavily disguised and deliberately distorted, was reassembled, pointing directly to the essence of the "Nine Nether Void Law"!
He broke through illusions and grasped the truth! The profound mystery of the Yin manifested in his heart!

"Om-"

The Void Talisman trembled violently deep within the sea of ​​consciousness, resonating with the true technique revealed after breaking through the fog!

The newly formed lunar talisman, bearing the Dao of Yin's Extinction, also shone with a clear radiance!

Countless clear spatial trajectories and hidden veins unfolded in Chen Qing's mind like a scroll, forming a black talisman of uncertain reality deep within his sea of ​​consciousness!

Supernatural power: Crossing the Nine Netherworlds!
But the moment the supernatural talisman took shape, his Void Spirit Talisman suddenly expanded and swallowed the supernatural talisman whole!

"I got it!"

Chen Qing opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as lightning, no longer showing any confusion.

Then, he pointed his fingers like a sword, and with a faint glint of light at the tip, he pointed at a seemingly ordinary blood-red ice crystal in the northeast corner!
"Wow!"

The ice crystals shattered, revealing a pitch-black cave entrance. The cave was dark and deep, exuding a chilling aura of emptiness.

But the next instant, the opening began to shrink and recover!
Xuan Su's eyes widened in surprise, but she didn't forget to remind everyone, "Time is limited..."

Without her saying a word, everyone could see the urgency!
"Boom!"

This illusory world suddenly trembled violently, as if a giant hand had reached out from the outside and grasped the entire illusory realm!

"Crack!"

A crack appeared in the sky!

Elder Youchan's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and without the slightest hesitation, she shouted, "Board the ship!"

The Xuan Shui Shuttle Boat emitted a bright, eerie light, transforming into a deep blue streak of light as it narrowly and dangerously plunged into the pitch-black cave entrance!
"Om-"

The instant the shuttle disappeared into the cave entrance, the illusory realm behind it, like a canvas, violently twisted and collapsed, eventually turning into a pale white dot of light and silently vanishing!

at the same time.

"Boom!"

The ice crystal altar trembled violently, and cracks spread!
The seated Daoist Chenguang shuddered violently, coughing up blood. His Daoist robe tore to shreds, and he crashed down from mid-air like a kite with a broken string!
"puff!"

He was stuck in a snow pit, half of his body buried in ice!

"Is this a backlash from the formation? They escaped? How is this possible?! The 'Void Prison' forged from fragments of the Nine Netherworld Rift, reinforced with the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator, has actually been broken?!"
"boom!"

suddenly!

A terrifying will, ignoring spatial barriers, descended with a deafening roar!

"Well!"

Daoist Chenguang couldn't even let out a scream. He was as if he had been hit by an iceberg and was pressed firmly to the cold snow! His bones and muscles trembled, and rainbows shot from his seven orifices!
"Master, Uncle-Master, please calm down! This disciple... will go after him immediately... and will definitely capture him! It will not affect the grand plan..."

A detached divine thought penetrated the depths of his consciousness:
"There's no need to pursue it further."

“The Daoist has planted the ‘Moon Demon Summoning’ in his body; he cannot escape.”

"The time is approaching. You will assist the Dao Child in completing the blood sacrifice."

As soon as he finished speaking, that terrifying will vanished.

Chen Guang let out a long sigh of relief, his face a mixture of relief and fear.

"Kakaka-"

In the pitch-black void, spatial turbulence roared in, causing the shuttle to shake violently and groan under the strain!
Elder Youchan's face turned ashen. She placed her hands on the central hub of the flying boat and poured her magic power into it without reservation. The condensed azure light shield tightly protected the flying boat and resisted the raging turbulence!

The people inside the boat were like lone boats on a raging sea, tossed about and thrown about. Xuan Su and Ling Wan, who had the weakest cultivation, were pale and unsteady on their feet.

"Stop!" Master Han Jing shouted, and a vast expanse of cold air spread out, slightly stabilizing the space inside the boat.

The pure light of the Moon Goddess shone down, protecting everyone's minds.

Chen Qing gripped the gunwale tightly, and the spiritual talismans and lunar symbols in his Niwan Palace flowed with clear light as he tried his best to sense the faint pulses in the chaotic space.

He said in a deep voice, "Elder, hold on! This fragment is being forcibly dragged by that Nascent Soul Daoist Academy. If they catch up, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Elder Youchan gritted her teeth, veins throbbing on her forehead: "This fragment is drifting in the Netherworld Rift, its trajectory unpredictable. I can only barely maintain it from being torn apart! Fellow Daoist Jiming, you must quickly determine its direction, otherwise..."

"Boom!"

Before the words were finished, a deep, thunderous roar erupted from the dark depths ahead!

An indescribable, viscous, ink-like "black tide" surged in without warning! Wherever it passed, even the chaotic spatial currents seemed to be polluted and eroded, becoming stagnant and dim!
Upon seeing this, Chen Qing's pupils constricted sharply!

Kuroshio!?
"This is extraterrestrial foul air?!" Xuan Su exclaimed in shock upon seeing the black tide. "Be careful! This substance corrodes anything that touches it, defiles the foundation of your Dao, and erodes your soul! Retreat immediately!"

　The second update should be around 11 PM...
