Chapter 263: The Divine Radiance Palace
Chapter 263: The Divine Radiance Palace
Within the grand hall, Qi Yuan's eyes scanned the information on the jade slip.
Hidden messages suddenly appeared at this moment.
They revealed flaws in the cultivation technique and suggestions for improvement.
In the past, Qi Yuan's abilities were insufficient to perceive these hidden messages.
Even if he had seen them, it would have been challenging to address them.
Now, after visualizing the Three Pure Ones and integrating 4,752 Divine Infants, Qi Yuan's cultivation and comprehension had reached an awe-inspiring level.
He gazed at the jade slip, his eyes filled with determination.
Shen Wushen stood by his side, his expression filled with bewilderment.
The task Shen Wushen had brought was one of the top two in difficulty among those assigned by the Huadu Grand Monarch.
Even if the Vajra Mountain's Master took on this task, it would be impossible to complete it so quickly.
The Qi Yuan before him was indeed mysterious, but it wasn't to this extent...
Shen Wushen couldn't comprehend it.
"He's so serious; he can't be faking it. Even if he wanted to deceive me, there's no need to add a half-hour time limit," Shen Wushen thought to himself.
The half-hour time limit would pass in an instant, and there was no need to deceive him like this.
Could it be... that it's real?
If so, Shen Wushen swallowed hard.
Did that mean that even if Qi Yuan were to ascend to the Upper Realm, he would still be a peerless genius rarely seen in all of eternity?
The half-hour time limit flew by in the blink of an eye. Qi Yuan, holding the jade slip, casually tossed it aside, saying, "I am fortunate to have completed the task."
Shen Wushen, standing nearby, quickly reached out and caught the jade slip.
His heart was filled with urgency as he immediately sent his spiritual sense into the jade slip.
"The problem has been resolved, and I've even applied a quick fix to strengthen the technique. Otherwise, even if this issue were resolved, when this person enters the Mythic realm, he would still be in the lowest tier of Mythic cultivators." Qi Yuan spoke casually.
Shen Wushen examined the contents of the jade slip, his heart trembling with excitement.
This excitement was ten or even a hundred times more intense than Qi Yuan's casual tone.
He could bluntly say that Qi Yuan's talent, even in the Upper Realm, was one in a million!
The issues with this cultivation technique had actually been resolved!
Although Shen Wushen couldn't fully understand it, he felt there were no problems after reading it once.
This was already quite astonishing.
"Fellow Daoist, would you like to take on a disciple?" At this point, Shen Wushen had lost the pride of being from the Upper Realm's sacred lands.
One could even say that with Qi Yuan's current achievements, he surpassed the Vajra Mountain's Master.
Guiding him would be a breeze.
He could even help Qi Yuan reach the level of a three-fold Peerless Heavenly Talent.
"I won't take on a disciple." Qi Yuan shook his head, directly refusing.
Taking on disciples was truly troublesome.
Hearing this, Shen Wushen felt a bit disappointed. He continued to persuade, "Fellow Daoist, you wouldn't want your Dao to be without a successor, would you?"
"What do you mean?" Qi Yuan was a bit confused.
Shen Wushen, with his high EQ, was a straightforward speaker; with his low EQ, his heart was smaller than a pinhole.
"Fellow Daoist, born in the Canglan Realm, is destined for seclusion. Your Dao will be severed unless you pass it on to me. I, Wushen, will ensure your Dao shines brightly!"
Shen Wushen's eyes burned with intensity as he stared at Qi Yuan.
This was his chance!
The Canglan Realm was a "sealed" world, and rumors connected it to the Yang Deity of the Ninth Layer.
For a supreme genius like Qi Yuan to be born here was his misfortune, as he had no opportunity to ascend to the Upper Realm.
Therefore, it would be better to teach him everything before his death, ensuring Qi Yuan's path continued.
The Canglan Realm was a cage, and only by teaching him could Qi Yuan's Dao persist.
"Fellow Daoist, you wouldn't want your Dao to be severed, would you?"
Shen Wushen poured out all his thoughts.
He spoke of how Qi Yuan was the only choice, and how if the Upper Realm lost Qi Yuan's Dao, it would be a loss for the Ninth Layer.
Qi Yuan found these words quite speechless.
Was he hoping for Qi Yuan to die? Qi Yuan looked at Shen Wushen, "Has no one told you that in the future, you should do more and speak less?"
It was a good thing Qi Yuan had a good temper and followed the rules. If it were anyone else, they might have been struck down by Shen Wushen's palm.
Qi Yuan couldn't help but sigh; there were too many people with low EQ in this world. In contrast, he had a high EQ and spoke pleasantly.
After all, with just a few words, he could make his junior sister, Jiang Ling Su, happy, and she would shower him with Spirit Stones and cultivation techniques.
This was the difference between high and low EQ.
"Fellow Daoist, everything I say is true!" Shen Wushen still wasn't satisfied. "There are countless Heavenly Talents in the Canglan Realm. If my memory serves me right, three hundred thousand years ago, a true Heavenly Talent appeared in the Canglan Realm.
That Heavenly Talent created his own cultivation technique, defied the Great Calamity, and even attracted the attention of the Yang Deity from the Sixth Layer, who personally intervened to kill him!"
Shen Wushen spoke of that person with utmost respect.
Originally, the Canglan Realm's Great Calamity occurred only once every million years.
However, that powerhouse appeared and, within a few hundred thousand years, became a Mythic cultivator. He even achieved extreme sublimation and broke through to the Yang Deity realm with his own strength. He nearly shattered the Great Calamity, drawing the attention of the Yang Deity from the Sixth Layer, who personally intervened to kill him."
Shen Wushen spoke of that person's talent with admiration.
Even the one behind the Great Calamity hadn't expected such a genius to exist in the Canglan Realm. In the lower realm, this person had achieved the Yang Deity realm in less than a million years.
Due to this, the great calamity in the Canglan Realm, which originally occurred once every million years, now happens once every three hundred thousand years. This change was made out of fear that the same incident would occur again.
"Even an unparalleled powerhouse like you fell in the face of the great calamity. Fellow Daoist... with only a few hundred years left, there's no way you can survive. Master, I'm willing to live for you!" Shen Wushen spoke with great passion.
"Get lost!" Qi Yuan directly kicked Shen Wushen, sending him flying out of the main hall.
People who are inarticulate make communication difficult.
Those with low emotional intelligence should keep their mouths shut.
Qi Yuan felt that if he truly wanted to achieve the level of 'spoken words become spells', he should establish a grand rule: anyone with low emotional intelligence should remain silent.
...
Inside the Qiu Dao Gong, Qi Yuan Elder was as leisurely as a turtle.
Long Can's illusory figure stood beside him, his expression complex. "The Blood Robe Sword God actually doesn't leave?"
The last time, Long Can chose to exchange techniques with other Dark Deities and depart, but what set him apart from others was that he didn't return the jade slip to the Origin Spirit Sharing Society, nor did he share the profits with the society.
"I'm an old man, whether the Sword God leaves or not has nothing to do with me." Qi Yuan Elder spoke casually.
His lifespan was almost at its end, and he had already given up hope. Instead, he treated life and death with indifference.
"Hmm, the Blood Robe Sword God just transmitted something in the jade slip. Let me take a look and see if there's anything useful." Long Can noticed something.
His main body's consciousness entered the jade slip.
As a Dark Deity, the technique he cultivated was a mid-grade Heaven Grade spell.
Within the Origin Spirit Sharing Society, he saw several top-grade Heaven Grade spells.
Although he couldn't modify the technique, exchanging for similar techniques as a reference was still a significant improvement for him.
Qi Yuan Elder laughed and said, "If I were a few thousand years younger, I might be like you."
But now, he just lay down.
Some of the techniques inside were quite good, but for him, they were just average.
At this moment, Long Can's smile suddenly froze as he glanced at Qi Yuan Elder. "You should really take a look at the techniques in the jade slip!"
"Oh, what interesting techniques have been added?" Qi Yuan Elder chuckled.
"You'll know with just one look." Long Can's eyes gleamed with excitement as he took a deep breath. "After you see it... you might feel especially tormented."
"If I'm not afraid of death, would I fear suffering?" Qi Yuan Elder chuckled, his consciousness also entering the jade slip. "Let this old man take a look and see what's interesting..."
As he spoke, his expression froze, and his eyes revealed a look of disbelief.
"Divine... Divine Art!" Qi Yuan Elder's beard trembled. "How is this possible? How can there be Divine Art in this world?"
Divine Art was a technique created by a Yang Deity.
The Canglan Realm had absolutely no Divine Art.
The difference between Divine Art and Heavenly Art was immense.
Just seeing the beginning part of the Divine Art, Qi Yuan Elder felt like he was seeing his dream lover from his youth, experiencing that heart-fluttering, thrilling, and yearning feeling.
"It's actually Divine Art!" Qi Yuan Elder was shocked and moved.
He hadn't felt this heart-pounding, mouth-watering sensation in many years.
Just the initial part that was revealed was enough to make him lose control.
"What you said is right. Suddenly, I really want to leave the Qiu Dao Gong... and run to a remote place." Qi Yuan Elder mumbled.
This was Divine Art.
If he successfully exchanged it and studied it seriously, the benefits would be immense.
At this moment, he truly felt like a withered tree coming back to life.
Long Can stood by with a solemn expression. "While Lei Family Four Generals haven't arrived, there's still time to leave. Let's work together to exchange this Divine Art!"
He decided that this time, he wouldn't leave and would stay within the Origin Spirit Shared Society.
Just then, the Seven Wounds Elder's expression changed slightly.
The sky above Light Crane City suddenly transformed.
Purple lightning filled the entire sky.
On the ground throughout the city, purple reflections could be seen everywhere.
A dignified voice, like thunder, reverberated at that moment.
"Bloodrobe Sword Deity, come to meet your death!"
This voice echoed throughout the entire Light Crane City.
Ordinary cultivators who heard this voice trembled in fear.
"The Divine Battle... is it about to begin?"
"An Dark Deity is challenging the Bloodrobe Sword Deity!"
"Who dares to challenge us?"
These ordinary cultivators looked up, trying to hide their auras, not daring to speak.
Dark Deities and ordinary cultivators were not of the same level.
If a Dark Deity wished, they could effortlessly turn Light Crane City into an abyss, and no cultivator could escape.
At the same time, thousands of miles away, a complex expression appeared in Jasmine Great Venerable's eyes.
"It's a pity, the Lei Family's Four Generals have arrived."
Within the Antique Mirror, a figure spoke, "I suddenly look forward to the Bloodrobe Sword Deity's victory."
"Oh?" Jasmine Venerable was slightly taken aback.
"That's Divine Art... not the art of this realm."
He might have come from the Upper Realm, and the art he cultivated was likely not from this realm.
"If I can take his body, perhaps... I can take you back to the Upper Realm." The man in the Antique Mirror finally showed a hint of trembling in his voice.
Jasmine Venerable's eyes also revealed a sharp glint.
At the same time, within Light Crane City, Qi Yuan placed down a jade slip and looked up at the sky, his voice lazy.
"The Lei Family's Four Generals, you've arrived too late."
Qi Yuan flew into the sky, and a few kilometers away, four terrifying figures appeared.
Their long hair was loose, and their black pupils had no focus.
On their bare chests, there were sword and knife scars, countless wounds, as if they had experienced fierce battles.
Each of them exuded the aura of a Sky-Treading Six Steps pinnacle, just a step away from Mythic power.
Such peerless and ferocious beings, even in the Upper Realm, would be considered top-tier powerhouses.
After all, in the Upper Realm, Dark Deities are also considered strong.
Sky-Treading Six Steps pinnacle Venerables, even in the sacred lands, are considered mid to high-level.
[The Lei Family's Four Generals' bodies, once Mythic powerhouses, had their roots taken and were refined into puppets, becoming Dark Day's minions.]
Before Qi Yuan's eyes, he saw this information and squinted, his heart filled with uncertainty.
The Lei Family's Four Generals before him, more than being the Lei Family's Four Generals, they were long gone, their bodies refined into puppets, becoming minions of the Great Calamity.
Once Mythic powerhouses, alive, they were resources, and after death, their bodies were refined into puppets, becoming the Great Calamity's minions.
How tragic.
"Following the orders of Dark Day, the Bloodrobe Sword Deity brings chaos to the living, and must be exterminated!"
The leader of the Lei Family's Four Generals roared, his voice echoing.
At that moment, the environment around Qi Yuan also changed.
In an instant, they entered the Void Realm.
The Heavenly Dao of the Canglan Realm was powerful, and even Mythic powerhouses, when displaying power beyond the Dark Deity level, would be pulled into the Void Realm.
Qi Yuan looked at the Lei Family's Four Generals before him, his gaze deep, "You four, do you have your own consciousness?
If so, please tell me, where is Dark Day's headquarters.
I have White Moonlight with Dark Day, I must go see him."
Facing the powerful Lei Family's Four Generals, Qi Yuan remained calm.
The Lei Family's Four Generals' eyes had no focus, and the area around them, at that moment, turned into a sea of lightning.
Just then, a mocking voice sounded.
"They have no consciousness." A mechanical bird appeared.
This mechanical bird was the same one that had appeared when Qi Yuan fought the Martial Lord Venerable.
Qi Yuan's gaze also fell on the mechanical bird.
[Wondrous Creations, controlled by the Upper Realm's Divine Radiance Palace's direct disciple, Li Qiu Chen.]
Qi Yuan squinted his eyes.
Is the Great Calamity backed by the Divine Radiance Palace?
The Divine Radiance Palace of the Upper Realm?
At that moment, the mechanical bird landed on the leader of the Lei Family's Four Generals' shoulder, its eyes filled with sighs.
"A powerhouse like you, in the Upper Realm, I wouldn't dare to utter a sound, but unfortunately... this place is a pig farm."
Li Qiu Chen's voice was mocking.
As a direct disciple of the Divine Radiance Palace, the Canglan Realm has always been their pig farm.
All living beings, would be fed to the Great Calamity.
And these direct disciples, occasionally, would descend to the lower realms, controlling wondrous creations, slaying Venerables.
In the Upper Realm, they might only be Purple Mansion cultivators, or newly entered the Dark Deity realm.
But, coming to the lower realm, controlling wondrous creations, backing Dark Day, those Venerables they once had to look up to, with a wave of their hand or a step, could control their life and death.
This feeling, made one obsessed.
