Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 849 Yuan and the Sacred Symbol

Bai Yang was temporarily unable to move, but his consciousness was unusually clear.

The sudden change in the golden light of the sacred symbol was indeed unexpected, but it did not prevent him from now taking in the entire process.

The dragon-like creatures that swirled around his body, resembling golden amber, had hundreds of their heads reaching out to frantically tear at the purple-horned beast.

He pulled its body apart like a rice cake, then swallowed it whole!

Those seemingly indestructible black scales were practically useless.

Thousands of dragon heads surrounded the arcane spirit, watching it intently to prevent any possibility of its escape.

The two sides are not evenly matched; it's a completely one-sided situation.

"What will happen if this continues? Will the Holy Symbol devour the 'Art of Countless Origins'?"

Seeing this, Bai Yang secretly made his own guesses.

If left unattended, it's a foregone conclusion that the purple-horned beast will be completely devoured.

Although the sacred symbol belonged to him, there were still many things he didn't understand.

That evil green light now seems to have originated from the lineage of the Ten Thousand Tentacle Dragon Mother.

The Holy Symbol is of the same level as it, and even has the upper hand overall, so it must be at least at the level of Hunyuan.

He simply couldn't figure out why it also possessed the power of a dragon.

Shouldn't this be the domain of the Mother of Ten Thousand Touches' authority?

Moreover, after millions of years of interaction, the Holy Symbol always gave him the feeling of a righteous and majestic power, with no trace of evil.

By this time, the mental assault had long since stopped.

Bai Yang was only slightly distracted when the battle on the other side was about to end.

The purple-horned beast, which originally had a good appearance, now had a miserable expression on its face, like a female prisoner in a men's prison, with eyes full of bewilderment.

It appears to have no wounds on its body, and no matter how severe the bite from the dragon or snake, it will quickly recover.

However, the overall volume has been reduced by almost half!

The dragons and snakes seemed to have had a hearty meal, and then contentedly retreated back into the sacred symbol.

The purple-horned beast lay listlessly on the ground, its eyes lifeless, and remained motionless for a long time.

Bai Yang immediately checked his sea of ​​consciousness and saw that the original [Dragon] character was still shining brightly, seemingly unchanged.

However, around that dazzling golden light, four tiny white cubes were slowly rotating.

These four little things were obscured by the golden light and looked so inconspicuous that Bai Yang probably wouldn't have been able to see them if he hadn't been so careful.

In his vision, the four white cubes continued to enlarge, and soon their true forms were revealed.

It was those four scroll paintings! The scrolls that contained the "Art of the Ranks"!

Bai Yang glanced at the purple-horned beast, still panting heavily on the ground, in surprise!

"Complete separation? Or replication?"

"Regardless of which one, the Holy Symbol can actually interfere with the power of [Element]!?"

He immediately probed his consciousness into the leftmost scroll, and the words inside became clearly visible. It was the 'Absorption and Attraction Secret Technique' that he had tried to cultivate before!

Very good!

Bai Yang was overjoyed and immediately looked at another painting.

After looking at the other three, the content on them was blurry and impossible to see clearly.

Clearly, he hasn't met the requirements for cultivation yet, so he can't learn it at all.

One must at least attain sainthood in willpower before one can begin cultivation.

"It doesn't matter if you can't see it clearly, there are definitely words on it. The *Lieyuan Shu* is really in my hands!"

The man and the beast rested silently in the hall.

Bai Yang understood after trying it briefly in his sea of ​​consciousness.

That scroll depicting the secret technique of attracting and guiding energy has actually been effective all along!

He can use this method to train his willpower again, and the effect is obviously much better than the silver chamber and the black-patterned stone pillar!

His willpower is best suited to this kind of persistent, meticulous work.

Even under the golden light, his consciousness could easily withdraw at any time without any danger.

Over time, one's willpower will definitely continue to improve.

After an unknown amount of time, the purple-horned beast finally rested enough and raised its head to look at him with a deep, melancholy gaze.

"I never expected such a thing to happen."

Why do you have my master's scent on you?

Bai Yang's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "Your master? Who is that? I don't know."

The purple-horned beast clearly didn't believe it, but at this moment it dared not lash out at Bai Yang, who possessed its master's aura, and said:

"My lord is named 'Yuan,' and is a truly free and unfettered being, unbound by any power."

Bai Yang's expression remained unchanged, as if he were hearing this for the first time. Instead, he asked with some concern:

"I don't know him. Have I failed? Could you please see me out?"

"Are you going to erase my memory as well?"

Does he really not know?

The purple-horned beast was surprised and couldn't quite understand the situation. Was this person telling the truth or not?

The original process has been completely disrupted!

Thinking of the myriad dragons and snakes on his body, the purple-horned beast suddenly shuddered and hurriedly said:

"You bear the scent of my master, that's for sure. I have no right to erase your memories, nor can I do so, so don't worry."

"If you want to leave, then I'll send you away."

Bai Yang immediately said:

"Then let me leave."

The purple-horned beast gave him a complicated look, and finally nodded.

The next moment, Bai Yang found himself leaving the world of the painting and returning to the void of the eighth level.

A dark figure, concealed, witnessed this scene.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, "Alas!"

Despite having such great talent before, he still failed to pass the first stage of the "Art of Array Origins"!

It's so disappointing that it failed after only six months!

"This Navigation Technique only places partial demands on willpower; it places even greater demands on the soul itself!"

"This kid has plenty of willpower and resilience, but his potential for transformation is too low!"

Otherwise, on the Origin Continent, there are heaven-defying monsters whose will has reached the level of "Eternal True God" at the Law Master stage, yet they still fail!

No matter how strong this genius who excels in combat is, he cannot fulfill the original's long-cherished wish!

With a casual wave of his hand, a beam of light struck Bai Yang, sending him directly outside Wu Qi Tower.

Bai Yang's vision blurred, and he immediately saw the numerous True God Guardians surrounding Wu Qilou.

"Another failure."

"Normal, normal!"

"That's right, as long as the account suspension mission can save our lives, that's good enough."

These true gods have seen too many losers over countless years, so naturally they would not look down on Bai Yang.

On the contrary, they know what kind of genius it is to emerge at a time like this.

They are simply incomparable to them!

Inside the silver palace, the four commanders watched this scene with disappointment through a screen.

"Even this 'mountain and sea' challenge failed..."

"Is it possible that His Majesty's wish will never be fulfilled?"

"After all, he is a peerless genius who has broken into the eighth level. This Shan Hai can be considered a promising talent."

"But in the end, it was all for naught!"

The silver-armored female powerhouse sighed, "Should we inform Xue Yong?"

The imposing leader of the Eternal God thought for a moment and said:

"Then tell him. Xue Yong is a general in the Eastern Army; he has the right to know."

Bai Yang had already left a message for Luo Feng through the virtual universe and then took out the Dragon Tablet and left God King Valley.

At the same time, a message from the four commanders had been sent to the Eastern Army General's Office.
