Chapter 257: I Want It All!
Chapter 257: I Want It All!
As his vision cleared, Lv Yang lifted his head to gaze at the sky. Before him stretched an extraordinary sight—countless stars glittering above while sun and moon coexisted in the same celestial expanse.
"How intriguing."
Sensing his surroundings, Lv Yang immediately detected the Jie Tian's hostility. The spiritual qi permeating the air felt like countless sharp needles, piercing and toxic. Absorbing it recklessly would shred his insides and taint his Dao Foundation. This realm's dangers explained why even Foundation Building True Men struggled here—Refining Qi Perfection cultivators would find it far more lethal. Their lower cultivation rank left them vulnerable to the Jie Tian's assimilation.
Only Foundation Building True Men, with their eternal Dao Foundations, could anchor their essence against the Jie Tian's eroding forces.
Lv Yang checked his clone's condition. "Good—my consciousness can return instantly. If my main body reaches the Heavenly Ascension Hall, I could teleport here directly!"
His gaze sharpened as he studied the star-studded heavens. The stars felt like watchful eyes, their light unsettling him.
"Heaven-Sundering Malice again", he mused. As an outsider, this malevolent cosmic force posed a deadly threat. Avoiding it required extreme caution.
At that moment, Miao Yin True Man spoke: "Yuan Tu (Slaughter), our combined presence draws too much attention. Let's separate temporarily. We can regroup once we've masked our auras."
Her real motive was clear. She wanted to ditch Lv Yang, then summon Suo Huan as planned to kill him—a scheme that would grant her a fortune ground to bypass her tribulation.
Lv Yang, unsurprised, readily agreed. The two parted ways—Miao Yin vanishing in a streak of light while Lv Yang remained, analyzing the Myriad Martial Realm's secrets.
"Fate Star cultivators... the Sun and Moon Son of Heaven", he murmured. This realm's practitioners channeled their powers through Fate Stars—manifestations of divine fruit positions.
"A refined Dao fruit", he mused. "Similar to Citadel Earth, but tailored for the Dao Court's tastes." The system's compatibility with his own cultivation needs thrilled him.
"But in my current state, I can't cultivate—only plunder before escaping. Not ideal." His thoughts shifted as a sudden energy surge coursed through him. The Jie Tian's hostile spiritual qi, previously eager to tear him apart, abruptly changed.
"Earth Vein Qi?" His eyes gleamed. The realm coveted this energy—for it, the Jie Tian would gain immense benefits. "But what do I get? If I steal this energy without returning it, my home world might kill me during my next tribulation..."
A celestial light pierced through. The Heaven-Sundering Malice vanished as a single star blazed above.
"A bribe?" He frowned. This realm's divine intelligence exceeded typical Fruit Positions. Acquiring a Fate Star would grant him local status, bypassing the need to constantly evade cosmic hostility.
"I want guarantees", he demanded. The realm responded instantly—eagerly accepting his terms. Lv Yang relinquished 1% of his Earth Vein Qi.
A Fate Star ignited in the heavens. Divine Essence flowed down, imprinting the word "Villager" in his soul.
"Villager?" He scoffed. "This 'green card' lets me eat anything—grass, dirt, tree bark. One famine away from becoming a refugee!" Calculating the karmic implications, he realized stronger Fate Stars required more Earth Vein Qi—"subscription upgrades" for spiritual power.
He sealed away the remaining Earth Vein Qi and activated his Heavenly Primordial Universal Sovereign Divine Art. The falling starlight became nourishment, coalescing into a towering three-headed, six-armed dharma body with flaming visage.
"Success!" he grinned. "My Heaven-Encompassing Dharma Body finally has a foundation!" Unlike external treasures vulnerable to heavenly tribulations, this dharma body would grant him 30% better survival odds against calamities.
But the "Villager" Fate Star barely sufficed. His mind raced—what if he seized entire earth veins? Could they fully power his dharma body's evolution?
"This body's 'Myriad' nature lets me absorb treasures directly", he realized. "Avici Sword, Ten-Thousand Spirit Banner, Imperial Decree of Golden Inscription—they'll all strengthen my clone!"
His strategy crystallized—let his clone master the Heaven-Encompassing Dharma Body, then reincarnate into it, carrying all his treasures back.
Avici Sword? Ten-Thousand Spirit Banner? Imperial Decree of Golden Inscription?
I want it all!
