The clothes the person in front of me was wearing were not monastic robes, but ordinary clothes, which didn't match the belt at all, and I don't know where they came from.
Lu Yao looked at him with interest, then glanced at the strange beast beneath him: "This five-colored beast can sense the location of treasures?"
"How dare you!"
The knights were furious. How dare this young man point fingers at their young master's mount! Jiang Yichen's cultivation level wasn't that high, but his family's status was undeniable, and he also had a powerful grandfather.
"Jiang Yifei, are you sure you're not going to stop your good-for-nothing brother?"
One hundred and eight divine halos slowly appeared behind Lü Yao, their holy light dazzling, making him appear like an immortal being descended to earth.
Ye Fan next to him was like a roadside ditch.
"So you are a fellow Daoist from Yaoguang. I am surprised that you know my name. May I ask how I should address you?" Jiang Yifei suddenly smiled, his handsome face inspiring goodwill.
"Who doesn't know the prodigy of the Jiang family today? I am Lü Yao, a disciple of Yao Guang."
Jiang Yifei said, "It's a pleasure to meet you. My younger brother is young and doesn't know any better, so please don't take offense. You may leave at any time."
Since he is indeed a disciple of Yao Guang, we cannot allow Jiang Yichen to act recklessly.
However, we cannot let the Holy Land of Yao Guang overshadow our momentum.
His words were gentle, but flames appeared behind him, intertwining into a phoenix shape, clashing with the one hundred and ten divine rings. The powerful aura forced the Jiang family knights to retreat.
The two men's auras clashed constantly, creating a tense and oppressive atmosphere that made it hard for those present to breathe.
Even though Ye Fan was being protected behind Lü Yao, he could still sense the terror emanating from the two of them.
The contest of momentum ended in a stalemate, and Jiang Yifei was the first to back down, waving his hand to signal his men to make way.
Lu Yao gave Jiang Yifei a deep look. This man cultivated both the Hengyu Scripture and the Undying Heavenly Art, and his bloodline had returned to its ancestral form. He was an extremely terrifying figure. Even the Jiang family's Divine King Body was suppressed by him and lost its luster.
Outsiders only know that Jiang Yifei is the best in the Jiang family, but what is the Divine King Body called?
I'm sorry, I don't know.
Of course, it's also possible that the Jiang family was hiding the Divine King Body as a foundation, but in the process, the Divine King Body was eventually ruined.
"Let's go, Ye Zi." Lü Yao led Ye Fan away. Ye Fan kept looking back, and Xiao Tingting kept waving to him with tears in her eyes.
"Big brother, take care on your journey. Come visit Tingting again in the future! Tingting will cultivate diligently and come to find you then."
Apart from her grandfather, no one else protected Tingting like this, and even bought her snacks and hair accessories.
During the few days that Lü Yao was cultivating, Ye Fan spent all his time playing with Jiang Tingting, winning over a little fangirl.
Once outside the town, Ye Fan finally couldn't help but ask, "Old Lu, will Uncle Jiang and his companion be mistreated at the Jiang family's place? I don't think Jiang Yichen is a good person."
Lu Yao glanced at him: "How many good people can there be in ancient families and holy lands? But Tingting has the Taiyin Body, so she shouldn't be bullied too much."
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan said, "Tingting is so young, how can she withstand the infighting of a large family? Her pure and bright heart will probably be corrupted, and who knows what she will become when she grows up."
His eyes darted around: "Old Lu, Tingting is from the Jiang family's God King lineage. The God King will definitely take care of his descendants, right?"
Lu Yao nodded: "Of course, it is said that the God King is also upright and honest, and a good elder."
Ye Fan continued, "But you know where the God King is trapped. Let's go and rescue him!"
Ye Fan put his hands on his hips, feeling incredibly proud of the brilliant idea he had come up with.
Lu Yao stretched out his finger, then veered off course and pointed it at his own nose: "Who? Me?"
She then pointed at Ye Fan: "You? A cultivator from the Sea of Bitterness?"
"Even the most powerful experts would get trapped in Zishan. Are you just looking for a place to lie down and do nothing because you don't want to work hard?"
Hiss... Ye Fan gasped.
Is that place really that terrifying? Even top-tier experts would get trapped there?
"Never mind then." Ye Fan's expression suddenly became listless.
"It's not that there's no way out. Once I advance to the Four Extremes and acquire another divine artifact, I should be able to protect myself."
Lü Yao said.
"What kind of divine object?"
"Imperial Weapon".
Hiss... Ye Fan's voice grew louder.
"I'm planning to find a secluded place to break through to the second level of the Dao Palace realm. Where are you planning to go?"
Ye Fan thought for a moment: "Pang Bo is still in danger. I plan to stay in the town for a while, break through to the Life Spring, and then head to the Northern Region to find out about him."
Lu Yao nodded, and the two parted ways in Qingfeng Town.
Chapter Twenty-Four: Ye Fan is being hunted down?
“Brother, the knight said the two parted ways at the town entrance. The Yao Guang disciple went west into the mountains, while the other returned to the town and found another inn to stay at.”
Jiang Yichen rode a five-colored mythical beast down from the sky and landed in front of Jiang Yifei.
"Besides the Holy Son, the Yao Guang Holy Land actually has another outstanding prodigy."
Jiang Yifei was handsome and elegant, dressed in white. His face was 70% similar to the portrait of Emperor Hengyu enshrined in the Jiang family palace, which meant that his bloodline had returned to its ancestral form, and to a very high degree.
Just now, his confrontation with Lü Yao was merely a contest of wills, but it was clear that the young man was extraordinary.
Jiang Yichen didn't care at all: "Brother, you have already entered the Four Extremes. There are few young people in the entire Eastern Wilderness who can catch up with you. He is not the Holy Son of Yao Guang. Why should you value him too much?"
“But he’s not weak,” Jiang Yifei said calmly.
“That was before we even fought, just a contest of momentum. You didn’t go all out either, otherwise you could have easily suppressed him.” Jiang Yichen trusted his elder brother, whose face resembled their ancestor’s, completely.
The previous generation of God King Body was suppressed by the Holy Lord, and it seems that this generation of God King Body will also be suppressed by Jiang Yifei. Jiang Yifei has basically secured the position of the next Holy Lord.
“He should not be underestimated; he should be one of the candidates for Holy Son of the Yao Guang Holy Land.” After saying this, Jiang Yifei walked towards Old Man Jiang’s shop: “My uncle just said he was going to pack up his things, sell the shop, and then go back to the Jiang family. We’ll rest here for two days and then return to the Northern Region.”
"I understand," Jiang Yichen replied listlessly, his eyes darting around.
"You lot, go find that little cultivator named Ye Fan, and then..."
The knights looked at each other and said "Yes" in succession.
Who could blame them when their ancestor's grandfather was such a powerful figure in the family?
......
Lu Yao transformed into a rainbow and searched for a suitable place for seclusion and breakthrough in the deep mountains and dense forests. He flew for an hour and finally saw a pool of living water in the distance.
The pool was crystal clear, its surface shimmering, and several bluefish could be seen swimming aimlessly. In the middle of the pool was a huge rock, about two meters square, rising half a meter above the water.
Lü Yao was overjoyed: "We've flown so far, and there's hardly anyone around. Let's break through to the second level of the Dao Palace right here."
With a flash, he landed on the boulder, sat cross-legged, and with a wave of his hand, pieces of energy containing the essence of heaven and earth fell onto the rock.
There were so many fish that they couldn't all fit on the stones, and many fell into the pool. Startled, the fish darted away several feet with a flick of their tails, leaving ripples on the water's surface.
Lu Yao calmed himself down, closed his eyes slightly, and slowly raised his aura, his vast and unfathomable power rippling outwards.
The "Heaven-Devouring Immortal Technique" can cultivate on its own, so even when Lü Yao was traveling or resting, his cultivation level was increasing at a terrifying speed.
If he also actively cultivates Tai Chi with his comprehension, it would be equivalent to two prodigies cultivating together.
At this point, his aptitude had been greatly improved by the Devouring Heaven Demon Art. He had successively devoured the Dao and principles from dozens of scriptures, and with his diligent cultivation, absorption of essence and energy, and improvement of his physique, his aptitude was probably not much different from that of a God King.
With the increasingly miraculous power of his Wheel Sea, he was fearless even if he were to truly fight Jiang Yifei in the town.
The boost to his cultivation and combat power from specializing in the Sea of Wheels was terrifying.
If he were to obtain the "All" secret from the Tai Xuan Sect, his combat power would increase tenfold. In a battle against those at the same level, he would likely be able to crush the Dao hearts of those prodigies into dust.
He desperately needed a whetstone to test the gap between himself and the other top talents.
Let's see if, based solely on basic combat strength, it's at the level of a divine body or a holy body.
In the first level of the Dao Palace, he mainly cultivated the lungs. By chance, he resonated with the Supreme Emperor Scripture, which was the most powerful offensive scripture, and awakened a phantom of the Supreme Emperor.
Metal generates water, and in the second realm, he decided to cultivate his kidneys.
The kidneys are the place where essence is stored. If one achieves success in this area, one's spiritual power will be continuous and boundless.
A continuous series of Taoist chants arose, as if a deity or demon was about to manifest within the Palace of the Lungs, but it failed to appear for a long time.
But this did not hinder Lü Yao's breakthrough. Just like eating and drinking, his realm reached the second level of the Dao Palace, and his divine power surged and gushed.
The Great Dao's Heavenly Sound echoed through the mountains and forests, and a demonic power continuously absorbed the essence of heaven and earth within the source. The source that was absorbed instantly turned into dust with a "crackling" sound. Even the source that fell into the water was the same, and the dust flowed in all directions with the water.
But what's even more terrifying is that even with enough source and essence of heaven and earth, the Devouring Heaven Immortal Technique is still devouring the life essence of the surroundings.
The grass carp in the water have had their lives taken away; large numbers of them float on the surface, their white bellies turned up.
The trees and flowers outside the pond all began to wither.
Within a ten-mile radius, countless strands of life, stretching endlessly, were devoured by the demonic power.
Even if the Devouring Heaven Demon Art does not devour a person's essence, it still offends the heavens and is not tolerated by the heavens. When undergoing tribulation, one must also undergo the most difficult lightning tribulation.
Fortunately, Lü Yao did not devour the essence of living beings, so perhaps the tribulation of lightning wouldn't be too terrifying?
he does not know.
Having completed the breakthrough, Lü Yao frowned slightly as he looked at the deathly silence around him.
"It seems that in the future, I should try to find uninhabited places to break through, and it would be best to set up a corner of the array pattern."
Setting up a Heaven-Deceiving Array can prevent others from spying on you and also block out heavenly tribulations.
The Grandmaster of Array Patterns is readily available; it's none other than that dog of the Great Emperor Wushi.
"It seems we still have to go to the Northern Region to find Ye Zi, enter Purple Mountain together, rescue Jiang Taixu, and bring that dog out as well."
Logically speaking, powerful emperors should all have their own Heaven-Deceiving Array Patterns, so why are there none in the Devouring Heaven Demon Art?
Could it be that this ruthless person wished to be struck by lightning every day? To carry the tribulation of lightning to subdue numerous enemies? Or to use the tribulation of lightning to transform their very essence?
Or rather... a cold glint flashed in Lü Yao's eyes... that the ruthless lineage had deleted this part from the scriptures, just to expose these "demonic fetuses" to the world, and then let the "immortal fetuses" openly and legitimately eliminate the "demonic fetuses"?
He gained prestige, obtained what he deserved, and prevented the demonic embryo from growing powerful silently. A triple win.
