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

Chapter 875 The True Path

The Earth has been well protected over the years.

In a private palace in Shanghai, Baiyang Divine Power clones walked onto the observation deck.

Admiring the azure ocean where the sea and sky meet in the distance, and listening to the star-gazer's detailed, albeit rambling, introduction, I completely let my mind go blank.

The Lord of the Universe wields immense power in every gesture. He has always been stationed here, but he can hardly be said to "live" here.

Because in this vast palace, he was the only human being.

This pyramid-shaped palace in Shanghai has been upgraded and renovated countless times, yet it still occupies the best location on the entire planet.

Bai Yang was either looking down at Earth from a high vantage point or still in seclusion in his cultivation room; in fact, it had been a very long time since he had viewed this planet from the perspective of an ordinary person.

No matter which direction you look from, you see either a clean, clear ocean or beautiful hills that cover the land like a green carpet.

Skyscrapers have largely disappeared from the Earth.

Instead, countless flying cities float in the clouds above, carrying the Earth's population.

The entire Earth is as beautiful and harmonious as an ecological reserve.

Various native species of plants and animals dominate this place.

When people need to reminisce about the past, all Earthlings can enter a virtual universe and apply to experience the era or kingdom they wish to live in.

The deep-pocketed Xingyang Group had already purchased a dedicated virtual dimension from the Virtual Universe Company.

There, they brought the entire history of civilization on Earth into the space.

Hong and Lei Shen, who became true gods, along with the cosmic lords of the Earth system.

At Jia Yi's suggestion, they continuously went back in time and deciphered all the secrets of humankind throughout history!

Countless details buried in history and unintentional highlights in civilization have been collected, organized, and stored here.

Aside from the personal privacy of those powerful individuals, there's also the ancient Earth that Bai Yang sealed with a time seal, dating back even further.

Everyone can receive a historical education that far surpasses all previous experiences, and understand just how proud they are to be human beings on Earth!

Especially during the Great Nirvana period, countless moving and inspiring events attracted particular attention.

Almost all historians believe that it was the aftermath of this event that truly paved the way for Earth's rise and inspired countless powerful figures to emerge.

Upon hearing this, Bai Yang immediately shifted his attention.

"Star Guardian, play this message for me."

"OK."

Inside the cultivation space of the black-patterned stone pillar, Bai Yang suddenly turned to look at Luo Feng and told him what had happened.

"Luo Feng, are you aware of this?"

Luo Feng, who had been meditating, looked up in surprise and shook his head, saying:

"No, I just heard about it too."

He and Luo Feng were concerned with too many important things, and this small change would have happened if it hadn't been for today.

They may never know this, even a very long time from now.

Although other relatives and friends still keep in touch with them, no one bothers them with such trivial "little things" anymore.

Bai Yang sighed inwardly and said:

"I'll stop cultivating for now. With time accelerated by 350 million times, I won't be short of time."

During this pause, he listened to human stories for three hundred years in this cultivation space.

Throughout the entire Nirvana period, he listened to and recorded almost every noteworthy event.

He didn't overlook the joys and sorrows of countless ordinary people, or even the smallest contributions they made.

The Star Guardian kept telling him history, the timeline going further and further back, and suddenly a special name was mentioned.

"Mr. and Mrs. Bai Pianyi..."

A thunderbolt seemed to strike Bai Yang's heart!

"Star Guardian! What did you just say? Repeat it."

"Bai Pianyi and his wife."

"Same name?"

No, they are your parents.

Bai Yang's spirits were instantly lifted!

He began to quickly peruse the information, starting to learn about the details of the original parents.

"So, all these years, Uncle has made a special trip back to Earth in every era to pay respects to them?"

After the Bai family rose to prominence, they built an ancestral temple on the site of their original base in Kyoto.

He didn't even want to be the king of the earth. He went to the site once to accompany Bai Pianyong and Bai Sheng when the site was completed, and then he never paid attention to it again.

Even though they didn't have any real emotional connection, Bai Yang instinctively became more engaged and focused when he heard the name.

Bai Pianyi and his wife were truly ordinary people; there was so little to tell about their short lives.

But Bai Yang was more deeply affected than anyone else before.

Sitting across from him, Luo Feng, who was also reading this information, suddenly sensed something was wrong!

The white yang energy before my eyes became complex and chaotic!

This was something I had never experienced with him before.

"Brother Bai!?"

A very strange soul fluctuation and aura continuously emanated from it.

After a moment's thought, Luo Feng's face lit up with delight.

This was clearly a sign of his rapidly increasing willpower, something he was most familiar with!

At this moment, Bai Yang's willpower cultivation began to rapidly advance towards the limit of the Eternal True God level!

It took more than sixty days for this improvement to gradually slow down.

He slowly opened his eyes, surprised by his breakthrough.

I feel that my thinking speed is faster and clearer than before.

"Is this the ultimate expression of willpower reaching the level of an eternal God?"

Bai Yang had never expected this to have such an effect.

Will one's own willpower and talent be stimulated and make rapid progress one day?

For a moment, even he gave up thinking.

Countless life gene maps instinctively surged in his mind, almost tempting him to quickly delve into them.

The dawn of breaking through the final bottleneck is just around the corner!

Bai Yang calmed himself down and it took him a while to suppress this impulse.

"This is the essence of life!"

"Unlike Luo Feng, what I need is not grand changes in time, or the trajectories of celestial bodies in the universe."

"I've absorbed far too much of this kind of content before, but what truly triggers a breakthrough for me is definitely not this."

Bai Yang instantly abandoned his original idea, like Luo Feng's, to try to establish some kind of connection with the life structure diagram of the Beast of the Realm by referring to the orbital trajectories of countless planets and the heavens.

Instead, they began to ponder: what kind of creatures are these Beasts, which are born to symbolize the Great Dao of Destruction?

They must be considered a kind of life, right?

So, is it possible to comprehend the fundamental Dao of life?

"Are life and destruction truly diametrically opposed?"

Bai Yang became excited all over. He instinctively felt that this would be his biggest challenge from now on!

He knew that Luo Feng was originally going to comprehend the two fundamental Daos of life and destruction.

But the secret here is far more complex than simply figuring things out and making progress together!

There must be something deeper inside!

He had a feeling that the future might be more important to him than anything else!

It's even more important than a life-gene divine body that's 100,000 times more important! Much more important indeed!

"Fortunately, this time my will has made a breakthrough, and I am now only a hair's breadth away from achieving sainthood in terms of willpower."

"I've also discovered my weaknesses, and it's time to truly confront them."

"The Mountain Dweller!"
