Two Realms: Modern Invasion of Cultivation

The Yu Step, according to legend, was created by Yu the Great during his flood control efforts, combining the energy of heaven and earth with the movements of all things in the universe. It is said to be able to communicate with the energy of heaven and earth and measure all things in the universe.

In Taoism, the Yu Step is also a basic and comprehensive footwork, as comprehensive and practical as the Nine Syllable Mantra.

It can be said that all rituals, spells, and even the drawing of talismans can be performed using the Yu Step, and one can receive blessings by stepping on the Yu Step.

The Yu Step is further divided into upper, middle, and lower sections.

Yu stepped through the door, leaving nine footprints in three steps, which was the most basic step.

The Zhongyu Step, at a minor completion stage, is based on the Big Dipper. By stepping on the seven stars of the Big Dipper, one can mobilize the power of the stars.

He ascended to the Great Perfection of Yu's Steps, treading the Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams, using "calculation" as his primary method to measure the heavens, earth, the universe, and all things.

To perform the "Cloud-Swept Rain and Thunderous Thunder Technique," one only needs to perform the Yu Step.

He followed the steps of Yu, leaving nine footprints in three steps.

The so-called three steps refer to the three realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man.

The Nine Traces, where "traces" is interchangeable with "mechanisms," represent nine profound mysteries of heaven and earth.

By stepping on the Three Powers Step, one can connect with the nine mysteries of heaven and earth, thereby communicating with the energy of heaven and earth.

Just like now.

In the afternoon, the sun was high in the sky.

High in the sky, there were no clouds for thousands of miles, only a fierce wind and a lone figure.

"The sky is clear and the earth is peaceful; the windmills open wide; the sun and moon shine in their full glory; and the Qi transforms into clouds..."

A clear, melodious incantation rang out.

Song Yu walked with the steps of Yu, holding a sleeping baby in one arm and making hand seals with the other. As he strolled high in the sky, his true qi surged within him, and a magical power appeared at the tip of his hand seals.

"Boom!"

It sounded as if thunder was exploding in my ears.

Under the reflection of the dragon scale mirror, the magical power that appeared at the fingertips was magnified hundreds or thousands of times.

Accompanied by the sound of thunder, the amplified magical power surged forth, sweeping in all directions and across the world.

His blue robes fluttered loudly.

In his arms.

The baby, sucking on a finger, woke up babbling and opened its big, innocent eyes, looking around curiously.

The baby's exquisite black bib shimmered with a faint, mysterious light.

Meanwhile.

below.

The hundred-meter-tall wind bird cried out as it fought fiercely against the hundred-meter-tall ghost king.

The Xuan Guang Bird, transformed from a drone, also saw its power increased hundreds or thousands of times under the reflection of the Dragon Scale Mirror, its size increasing tenfold. Together with the Wind Bird, it flapped its wings to bring more gales, further amplifying the Wind Bird's power.

The ghost dog's power also surged, and as it ran through the air, it continuously spewed out crimson flames, fueling the wind.

On a hilltop, sunflowers took root and swayed their stems and flower heads, singing a song that seemed to beckon souls from afar, pulling at the spirit of the Netherworld King.

At last.

The flying sword transformed from the drone toy became a streak of light, constantly moving in and out of the Netherworld Ghost King's body.

Under the reflection of the Dragon Scale Mirror, the power of these conversion materials was amplified.

But it only increased the power.

Aside from that, there are no further changes. The basic capabilities of the conversion item itself are quite limited, and without upgrades, it will not undergo any further changes.

But it's enough.

At least they successfully entangled the Netherworld Ghost King.

And this scene.

In the psychic device's display.

Miaohe stared wide-eyed, completely absorbed, even forgetting to eat the Yunmeng Fruit in her hand.

As Yao Lizi sat quietly observing, his eyes gleamed with a constant stream of divine light, but he didn't look at the battle below; instead, he focused solely on the figures high in the sky.

"What kind of power is this...?"

"Just who is this person...?"

"Such power can easily connect with the power of heaven and earth and all things; the mysteries within are beyond my comprehension..."

"..."

Yao Lizi was surprised and even felt a strange shock.

If this young man possesses such power, and he emerged from a hidden place in the cave of a cultivator from a thousand years ago, then he would definitely not have been unknown in the cultivation world a thousand years ago.

But I've never heard of it.

Not surprisingly.

After all, the cultivation world a thousand years ago was vast.

So much time has passed, and naturally much information has faded away...

It's a pity.

Yao Lizi stared at the figure in the picture, his mind unsettled and speechless.

"Young friend, let me see for myself what you can achieve with the reflection of the Dragon Scale Mirror..."

"..."

In the small world.

The Netherworld Ghost King below also noticed Song Yu's movements.

"Hahaha, that's great!"

Chongji ripped apart the wind birds that were entangled in front of him with both hands. As the wind and fire merged, the wind and fire divine birds regrouped and laughed loudly, "Boy, what other tricks do you have up your sleeve? Bring them on, I'll play with you to my heart's content."

ear.

The inner demon's voice rang out in alarm and anger: "Playing with you my ass, you fucking idiot! Quick, quick, go interrupt him!"

The spirit medium and the fully formed Wind and Fire Divine Bird clashed once more, and the spirit coldly snorted, "What's the panic? Useless thing."

The inner demon roared, "Fuck your mother! Fuck your mother! You don't know anything! He's unleashing a powerful attack! He's about to summon heavenly lightning! If you don't interrupt him now, what will you, a mere ghost, use to withstand the lightning strike?"

The spirit medium burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, heavenly thunder, hahahahaha, Qingyun Demon, are you trying to make me laugh to death?"

"A mere human boy who has barely awakened his spiritual power, even with the blessing of that broken mirror, thinks he can summon heavenly lightning?"

"If he can summon heavenly lightning, I'll call him father."

"Hahaha, Qingyun Demon, I think you've really gone mad. You've been suppressed for a hundred years and you've completely lost your mind. You can even say such nonsense."

Upon hearing this...

The inner demon laughed, utterly despondent, and said, "You fucking idiot, just wait to die."

The spirit medium remained unmoved, engrossed in its battle with the wind and fire divine bird. Seeing this, it leisurely asked, "Why are you so certain he's summoning heavenly thunder?"

The inner demon chuckled and said, "Because I divided my spirit to seize it, that divided spirit was destroyed by the heavenly lightning he summoned."

The spirit medium casually remarked, "Oh? Interesting, but I don't believe it."

The inner demon: "Believe it or not, get lost."

The spirit medium fell silent, and amidst the battle, it once again looked up at the figure high in the sky.

"Clouds are coming..."

The figure spoke, and its voice echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

next moment.

Endless dark clouds gathered on the horizon, instantly obscuring the sun high above and the opening of the Tongtian Well.

Under the rolling dark clouds, something seemed to be brewing.

"I believe it."

Chongji's expression changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "However... I have to admit that I am indeed being held back at the moment..."

The inner demon sneered, "Trash, just wait to die."

Spiritual mediumship: ...

Under the dark clouds.

Song Yu stood in mid-air and slowly exhaled.

It became.

With the amplified power of his Dragon-Tiger Body, he successfully completed the Yu Steps and ascended to the Clouds.

Next, they summoned a dragon to bring rain.

There may be no dragons around, but you can have them.

The exoskeleton assist device transformed into the "possessed bone," which then became the dragon bone.

The Hundred Transformations and Thousand Illusions Device was activated, and the power of illusion enveloped the dragon bones, giving birth to the body of a dragon.

hold head high!

The dragon's roar resounded throughout heaven and earth.

The dragon soared into the clouds, churning and swirling within the dark mist.

"The essence of Kunyu water transforms into mysterious mists, from which dragons emerge from the deepest caves..."

"Hurry, hurry, as the law commands..."

Song Yu said in a deep voice, "Fall!"

Boom!

A thunderous roar erupted.

The next moment, a curtain of rain fell, enveloping everything within a ten-mile radius.

The power of heaven and earth was touched and descended.

However, it was not aimed at Song Yu and the baby, but rather they were touched by the "Dharma of Clouds and Rain" and descended under the control of thunder magic.

A heavy, oppressive, and terrifying feeling swept over everything in the world.

"Can you run? If you can't beat them, then run!"

The inner demons grew anxious and fearful.

He doesn't want to die.

Demons and monsters fear heavenly thunder the most, and are naturally restrained by thunder magic.

"They can't escape."

The spirit, panting, tore the Wind and Fire Divine Bird apart again, only to watch helplessly as it reformed and became entangled with him, unable to escape.

The Wind and Fire Divine Bird before them was completely immortal and indestructible; no matter how much they were torn apart, it was useless.

With the wind and fire divine bird entangled with him, the flying sword constantly stabbing him, and the ghostly thing on the mountaintop constantly pulling at his soul, he was truly powerless to escape.

"Useless, useless."

The inner demon roared, "We can't escape! We can only wait to die! Useless things, utter trash!!!"

Chongji took a deep breath and said, "So what if it's heavenly lightning? The sect leader of that sect once tried to destroy me with the Purple Extreme Divine Lightning, but it still couldn't destroy me."

"How powerful could the divine lightning summoned by a mere human brat be?"

"I've spent my life fighting and killing, and even the Jade Spirit Lord couldn't defeat me. What do I have to fear from a mere human brat!"

"Come!"

"Let me see how this brat's divine lightning tastes..."

"Hahaha..."

The spirit medium looked up and laughed wildly, its laughter reaching the heavens.

high in the air.

Song Yu lowered his eyes and looked down, then raised his hand to form a hand seal and slowly said, "Heaven and Earth rise, the cave gate opens wide..."

"Hurry, hurry, as the law commands—wind, come!"

The words were spoken.

Below, the Firebird cried out and soared into the sky. As it did, the crimson flames on its body dissipated, carrying with it the mist created by the burning rainwater. It continued upwards and crashed hard into the rolling dark clouds.

moment.

The dark clouds trembled and boiled, flashes of lightning appeared within them, and rolling thunder resounded throughout the heavens and earth, deafeningly loud.

Under such pressure.

The drug ion was stunned, his eyes wide with disbelief, his mouth agape for a long time.

What is this?

Can anyone tell him what this is?

He was stunned, completely stunned.

aside.

Miaohe took a bite of the Yunmeng Fruit, blinked her eyes, and said, "Hmm, Brother Qin Shihuang is so powerful, so scary."

In the small world.

"You can run now, run fast!!!"

The inner demon roared.

"They can't escape."

Chongji looked up at the sky, feeling the pressure of heaven and earth and the heaviness of the rain falling on him. He said in a deep voice, "This world has been shrouded. If you want to leave, you can only wait for the thunderclouds to dissipate."

The inner demon laughed, its tone mournful, "So, are you... up to it or not...?"

The spirit medium grinned.

"OK."

"It will definitely work."

"I was considered an omen of bad luck from birth. My mother died giving birth to me, exhausting her life force. My father cried for me, protected me, and died in front of me."

"And I was beaten to death with sticks and turned into a ghost."

"In just a few hundred years, he rose from a ghost to a ghost king."

"You ask me if it's possible, and I'll tell you, why wouldn't it be possible?"

"You want to kill me..."

"Oh."

"Even if it's lightning magic, so what?!"

"Jade Spirit Venerable cannot destroy me, Heavenly Sect cannot destroy me, demons and monsters revere me as their king!!!"

"I can do it!!!"

"And no one can... destroy me!!!"

The three heads of the spirit medium roared to the sky in unison, their roars shaking the heavens and clashing with the rolling thunder.

"Come!"

"Boy, come and destroy me!!!"

The six arms are raised, as if supporting the sky.

The blood and energy gathered throughout his body, and then, with his six arms supporting the sky, he transformed into a pillar of blood that roared into the heavens.

Such an action.

Song Yu saw this, his blue robes fluttering, his cold expression like that of a god.

He raised his hand, and the lightning drill appeared.

Lightning burst forth, darting and crackling as it enveloped his figure.

"The winds and clouds are favorable, the Dragon King grants passage, so be it!"

"Ray is coming!!!"

next moment.

Amidst the rolling dark clouds, the roar of a dragon could be heard.

Then, endless lightning danced, gathered, and fell in the dark clouds.

"Boom!"

All the lightning was drawn by the lightning drill, transforming into a thick bolt of lightning that struck Song Yu, enveloping and submerging his figure.

Within the lightning.

His figure seemed to transform into Thor, his pair of lightning-filled eyes slowly opening as he looked down.

Under the watchful eye of thunder.

The world seemed to stand still, and silence fell for a moment.

Then, a thunderous roar erupted, and a thick bolt of lightning swept over Song Yu's figure, carrying the power of heaven and earth as it crashed down.

There was no standoff.

As the lightning struck, it swept away the withered and decaying vegetation, instantly annihilating and dissipating the blood-red light that had soared into the sky from the Netherworld Ghost King's body.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

A cacophony of screams erupted, emanating from the Netherworld King and the inner demons.

In sight.

The lightning struck the Netherworld Ghost King relentlessly, bombarding him continuously.

As a result, the Netherworld Ghost King's hundred-meter-long body seemed to melt away, igniting a raging storm of lightning and fire under the bombardment of lightning, constantly dissolving and shrinking.

They were powerless to resist.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha..."

"That felt so good, so good..."

After the screams, the inner demon's voice quickly weakened and disappeared, leaving only the Netherworld Ghost King's loud laughter echoing through the heavens and earth, mingling with the continuous rumbling thunder.

"I never imagined that after a lifetime of fighting and slaying, I would ultimately die in this small world, by your divine lightning..."

"That's enough, that's enough..."

"Kid, listen carefully, you really need to listen carefully."

"The Jade Spirit Lord suppressed and sealed me with the Dragon Yang Sword for a hundred years, not simply to kill me, but for the Netherworld's Guidance..."

"The Netherworld Guide can connect to the Nine Netherworlds. In my early years, by a fortunate coincidence, I received a wisp of Netherworld Qi from the Jade Spirit Venerable, which enabled me to become the Netherworld Ghost King. The Jade Spirit Venerable painstakingly nurtured me and then suppressed and sealed me, all for the purpose of refining me, this ghostly talent, when I was ready to mature, and then using the Dragon Yang Sword to refine me and extract that wisp of Netherworld Guide."

"Now, the Netherworld has been summoned."

"Boy, your divine lightning strike completed the final step, making the Netherworld Guidance a complete success..."

"I'm going to die. It's better this way, it's better this way..."

"Boy, this wisp of Netherworld Guide is yours, hahaha, so you've finally seized the great fortune that Jade Spirit Venerable had been plotting for a thousand years..."

"You'd better be careful, be careful of that Jade Spirit Venerable..."

"If he finds out you've been infected with the Netherworld's Guidance, your fate will be...very terrible..."

"Hahaha, hahahaha..."

"Mother...Father..."

"Son...I've come with you..."

"..."

Then, a final whisper from the Netherworld Ghost King faded away.

Rumble!

The lightning completely annihilated everything.

Then the next moment.

"hold head high!"

The dragon's roar sounded again, coming from below.

Under the bombardment of lightning, the Dragon Yang Sword, hidden inside the Netherworld Ghost King, was completely exposed, and its sword intent was awakened by the lightning.

The sword intent roared furiously.

The Dragon Yang Sword unleashed a terrifying sword aura, colliding with the lightning.

This time.

The lightning exploded completely, and the resulting white light obliterated the entire world and blocked our view.

Much later.

When everything calms down and dissipates.

Song Yu slowly came back to his senses, his face pale. All he could see was that the mountains and forests within a ten-mile radius below had vanished, leaving only ruins.

The thunderclouds and rain curtain overhead dispersed.

The sunlight shone down again, bringing a touch of warmth.

before.

The Dragon Scale Mirror blocked his way.

The Dragon Yang Sword appeared out of nowhere and collided with the Dragon Scale Mirror.

"Click."

A crisp cracking sound rang out.

Cracks appeared on the Dragon Scale Mirror, and the Dragon Yang Sword trembled slightly, humming, before finally shattering the Dragon Scale Mirror completely.

In the psychic device's display.

Yao Lizi suddenly vomited blood, his face as pale as paper.

Miaohe blinked and asked, "Master, what's wrong?"

Yao Lizi said slowly, "It's alright, it's alright."

In the small world.

After piercing the Dragon Scale Mirror, the Dragon Yang Sword continued its momentum and stopped just inches away from Song Yu in the blink of an eye.

The sword didn't stop on its own.

Instead, the "rules of heaven and earth cannot be tolerated" were triggered.

It was Yao Lizi's Dharma body that blocked his way, and was pierced by the Longyang Sword.

Perhaps it was because the Dragon Yang Sword had just used up a lot of energy to break through lightning and the mirror.

In short, the sword was temporarily imprisoned by the "rules of heaven and earth" and blocked by the Medicine Ion Dharma Body.

but...

Song Yu was also unable to move at this moment. Without the reflection of the Dragon Scale Mirror, he was completely locked by the Dragon Yang Sword and had no power to resist. Only the Taiyi Protective Talisman was activated on his body, protecting him.

"You can travel back in time..."

On the bracelet, the world line appears and disappears, about to shorten and return at any moment.

Song Yu did not relax, his gaze fixed on the Longyang Sword, which was just inches away in front of him, without backing down.

In his arms.

Invisible cracks reappeared on the baby's body.

"Father..."

The baby's big eyes held no worry, no curiosity, only pure innocence.

I have no time to deal with it.

This standoff continues.

The Longyang Sword seemed to have exhausted its strength and gradually calmed down.

With the Heavenly Eye activated.

The resentment in his sword intent, tinged with unwillingness, slowly subsided.

When the sword intent completely subsided.

The Dragon Yang Sword paused slightly before falling.

The medicinal ions dissipated, and the rules of heaven and earth ceased to prevail.

Song Yu immediately felt a sense of relief, and the feeling of being locked on disappeared.

A wisp of spiritual wind enveloped the Dragon Yang Sword, bringing it back to his presence.

The sword intent subsided.

Even so, he felt the stinging sensation from the sword before he even touched it.

Devouring Master...

Song Yu understood immediately, and his body and mind completely relaxed. He swayed and felt dizzy for a moment.

The consumption is too high.

Under the reflection of the Dragon Scale Mirror, he himself had also consumed a lot of energy, and his Dragon Tiger Body was completely withered and weakened.

His internal energy was almost completely drained, and he had no magical power left.

At this moment, he is only hanging on by the breath of a spirit gourd pill.

The good news is that it's worth it.

The Netherworld King and the inner demon were completely shattered.

As for the harvest...

Song Yu took a deep breath and calmed down. He looked at the broken dragon scale mirror, which was also enveloped by the accompanying spiritual wind and presented to him, and his eyes showed regret.

And that Netherworld Guide...

"Young friend...you're quite skilled..."

The weary voice of Yao Lizi rang in his ears: "It's time to come back."

The words were spoken.

From within the misty well, willow branches drooped out and wrapped around Song Yu's waist.

They had no power to resist whatsoever.

He suddenly felt himself being pulled by a willow branch, and his body disappeared into the gray mist that filled the well.

No severe winds were observed.

It was pitch black to the eye.

My body felt as if it had passed through an invisible barrier. In the blink of an eye, my vision was bright, as if I had been pulled out of the water and arrived in another world.

What came into view was the wide square I had seen in the psychic visions, as well as magnificent and beautiful palaces.

In her arms, the baby was unharmed.

Under the rule of heaven and earth, Song Yu once again felt the gaze of the mysterious will of heaven and earth.

He merely watched, without unleashing any lightning tribulation.

The feeling of being stared at slowly faded away, dissipated, and returned to silence.

He breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the mirror-like surface of the well he was standing on, and his body was lifted up by the willow branches wrapped around his waist, leaving the well and landing on the jade-paved ground.

"Miaohe, please take good care of your young friend."

In his ear, Yao Lizi's weary voice rang out: "I need to go into seclusion for a while."

"Young friend, don't worry, stay here in peace."

"Regarding the broken Dragon Scale Mirror, let me see if I can repair it."

"I've taken the Dragon Yang Sword with me; I'll use its dragon essence to refine elixirs."

"As for other matters, we'll discuss them after I leave seclusion. Miaohe will take care of everything here for you."

"..."

The moment the sound rang out, the drug ions had already disappeared.

Holding the baby, Song Yu listened to the message and then looked at the curious girl who had come closer to him, and suddenly realized what was happening.

finally...

I've left that wretched little place...

Before the two could even exchange words...

horizon.

Suddenly, a raging river came rushing in.

Along with it came a magnificent cloud boat on the river, its size comparable to the jade palaces before them.

A voice that seemed to reach the heavens and the earth resounded from inside the cloud boat.

"Hahaha, Yao Lizi, here I come."

"Guess what I caught?"

"An ancient cultivation cave, hahaha, Yao Lizi, according to the bet, if you don't catch anything, I won't be polite to you."

"Come on, let me see what you caught..."

"..."
