On the day of his spiritual root test, he was found to possess a fifth-grade root. In this lifetime, it would be nearly impossible to break through the Mid Qi Refining stage.
The immortal sec...
Chapter 599 The Myth of the Moon Palace, The Lunar Refining Treasure Scroll
Previously, the laurel was quite far apart, and its entire body, like white jade, constantly shimmered with the light of the moon, making it look like a treasure among treasures. That's why it was left until the very end to be enjoyed by the grand finale.
Now that it's so close, I realize that this laurel is like a flower in the mist or the moon in the water—visible but untouchable.
It's really disappointing.
But with such a bountiful harvest, there's no need to feel too regretful.
"To gain it is my fate, to lose it is my fortune."
With these thoughts in mind, Wang Yu quickly walked to the base of the giant laurel tree, his heart brimming with curiosity.
In his previous life, there were legends such as Chang'e flying to the moon and Wu Gang chopping down the tree. His own innate supernatural power was the twelve phases of the Guanghan Palace. He had doubted and hesitated about all sorts of strange phenomena.
I wondered if there really was a Guanghan Palace and a laurel tree on the moon. Now I haven't seen the Guanghan Palace, but I have seen this laurel tree, and I am filled with emotion.
Fortunately, he didn't travel to a world like Journey to the West, ancient mythology, or Investiture of the Gods, otherwise this demon would probably not be tolerated by the Heavenly Court.
A few moments of reflection did not affect his subsequent actions.
Although the laurel tree was an illusion, its appearance and reality were not much different. Wang Yu flew upwards through the gaps in the branches, quite curious about the reason why this thing was formed.
All the myriad phenomena in the world have their reasons for existing forms.
Even the Taiyin Star in the prison world has some of the status of Star Supremes. It is by no means an ordinary person to set up a Daoist temple here.
The location of the laurel tree is in accordance with the principles of Feng Shui.
He suspected that this thing was set up by humans, or at the very least, it was very likely a projection of the real Taiyin Star. Don't forget that the Taiyin Star in these small realms is a derivative of the true supreme star.
It is described as a projection, but it is actually real.
Therefore.
The laurel tree is very likely located on the real Taiyin Star. This supreme star is an extremely important spiritual energy center in the vast immortal realm and must not be lost.
There are immortals who reside here, and the same principle applies.
The other supreme star, the Sun, is the same. It is said that these two stars are not the only ones for the human race. Other powerful immortal realms that rule parts of the cosmic sea also have the Taiyin and Taiyang stars.
Legend has it that deep within the cosmic sea, there are still undiscovered supreme stars. The Moon and the Sun are among the more numerous, but imperial stars like the Purple Star are truly rare.
Apart from one in the vast Immortal Realm, it is unknown in other places, so it must be quite rare.
A lot of information flashed through my mind.
Wang Yu couldn't help but sigh, the inherited memories of the Ice Phoenix Clan were truly useful, at least they made him realize how vast the world was and how boundless the universe was.
The concept of the cosmic sea, or the concept of returning to the void.
In his view, it was similar to the universe and starry sky of his previous life, both being empty, vast, and difficult to explore to their limits.
Just like that vast and boundless path, with heavens upon heavens, the path of seeking the Dao is also limitless.
It seems I've gained some insight into my state of mind.
Wang Yu flew higher and higher, and the laurel tree seemed to contain a universe within it. He had originally thought it was just a giant tree, but after flying up from the bottom and entering the canopy, it was clear that it was not far away.
But even after flying for half an hour, he still couldn't see the end.
The surrounding branches and leaves were getting bigger and bigger, completely different from what he observed from the outside. Wang Yu couldn't help but look at his hands.
He muttered to himself in confusion.
"Did I shrink, or did the tree grow bigger?"
It is clearly an illusion, yet it contains such profound mystery.
Wang Yu couldn't help but feel hopeful.
After flying for three full days, while he was completely bewildered, a magnificent palace appeared on a branch.
Jade pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes, long murals covered with exotic flowers and plants, and brackets and eaves adorned with round moon wind chimes that chime crisply in the cold wind.
Like memories from bygone years, long and poignant.
Wang Yu subconsciously touched the corner of his eye, only to find two tear tracks streaming down his face. The sound of the wind chimes was desolate, ancient, and had a melancholic effect, which was truly unexpected.
Even someone of his stature and mindset could be influenced.
A sense of awe arose within me, and I had no desire for the wind chimes. Everything here was an illusion, visible and audible, but impossible to touch.
It's even like a silhouette of a certain period in the long river of time.
He only happened to catch a glimpse of it.
Arriving in front of the palace, the plaque was blurred and the characters were illegible, so Wang Yu could only call it the Moon Palace. He flew into the palace through the gate and saw the magnificent scenery.
It is completely different from the Ice Prison Realm.
It was extremely luxurious; even the jade bricks used for paving the floor were a type of energy crystal far superior to top-grade spirit stones. Although he couldn't identify them, he could still sense their extraordinary nature.
Occasionally, some things could be recognized through the Ice Phoenix's memories, which surprised many. For example, a resting place above the main hall that resembled a bed was made of phoenix wood.
He was amazed to discover the incredible beauty of the versatile couch that could be used for leaning, lying down, sitting, and sleeping.
The tour lasted for about half an hour.
Wang Yu eventually discovered a fragment of a scripture in a secluded meditation chamber behind the palace. With his mastery of classical Chinese, he could tell that the fragment was definitely not a product of the Ice Prison Realm.
A brilliant idea suddenly popped into my head.
"Could this be a projection of the true Taiyin Star, actually related to the past of the Supreme Star?"
The situation can only be inferred, not confirmed.
Although Wang Yu did not understand the scripture, he had no difficulty reading the placement bar. He could simply scan it once and place it directly into the bar.
Once you have experience in cultivation, all difficulties will naturally be resolved.
in this way.
Wang Yu waited for a full three hours before receiving the first wave of experience feedback.
"The Taiyin Refining Body Treasure Scroll... Ancient Starry Sky Texts... Myths of Star Lords... So that's how it is!"
In an instant.
As if enlightened, Wang Yu instantly understood the reason behind it.
It turns out that the "Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Record" is actually the natal cultivation method of the Taiyin Star Lord. Such a position also exists in the Cangmang Immortal Palace, but this Star Lord is not the same as that Star Lord.
According to the Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Record, the first Taiyin Star Lord was a primordial deity born from the Taiyin Star, possessing innate knowledge, and this lineage was a gift from heaven and earth.
These beings are also known as star gods.
Although the Starry Sky Ancient Script is not as powerful as the Five Great Dao Scripts, it still contains the wonders of the stars and can be used to draw upon the essence of the stars in weapon crafting, talisman making, pill refining, and array formation.
This can be described as achieving twice the result with half the effort.
As for the primordial deities, they were the rulers of the vast immortal realm long ago, but this "long ago" is not a few thousand or tens of thousands of years ago, but hundreds of millions or even billions of years ago.
It truly is the most ancient history in history, and many things are difficult to trace back.
It was only mentioned briefly in the transmission of knowledge.
It didn't go into detail, but rather focused on the Star God's cultivation method. This ancient tradition was out of step with the modern world, and Wang Yu couldn't determine the level of this method.
It must be an extremely profound and mysterious ancient scripture, far beyond the reach of someone like him, a mere ant from the lower realm.
After experiencing the feedback from the placement bar.
Wang Yu was both surprised and delighted.
This "Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Book" is not intended for humans. Theoretically, it is only suitable for star gods born from yin stars. Even if humans force themselves to cultivate it, they will not be able to get started.
Because their internal structures are completely different.
While the demon race's inheritance shares some commonalities and can be improved through deduction and modification to create a human version, the starting point of the star god's inheritance is different.
The deities born from the origin of the stars are naturally close to the Dao.
Even without mastering the basics of spatial principles, one can still travel through space thanks to their high affinity, making it incredibly easy to comprehend the Dao that one is naturally close to.
They are often born no more than a thousand years ago, yet they can already possess the power to unite the Dao.
The most outstanding among them can even reach the Mahayana stage and completely control a region's Dao principles. Their realm is slightly inferior to that of a True Immortal, but their combat power is a level higher than that of a True Immortal. They are also known as the Starry Sky Dao Masters.
Wang Yu was astonished by the upper limit of the "Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Book".
I appreciate the benefits of placing items in the display area.
Yes, the power of the hanging has no limit. He was able to learn the Star God Technique, which was completely unsuitable for human cultivation. However, his main body could not cultivate on its own and relied entirely on the feedback from the hanging panel to obtain progress.
There are pros and cons.
However, when it comes to the power brought by the Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Talisman, the space occupied by it is only a negligible drawback.
The Way of the Star God places great emphasis on comprehending the principles of the Dao and enhancing the essence of the primordial spirit. Cultivating this method will allow Wang Yu to easily enter the threshold of the Great Dao of Taiyin.
By cleansing the primordial spirit with the power of the Dao, divine patterns can be born at the center of the brow. The realm is divided into one to nine patterns. Nine divine patterns are equivalent to the Dao Lord of the Starry Sky, who completely controls a Great Dao.
Unfortunately, the Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Scroll is severely incomplete, with only one to three lines of cultivation methods. This standard already meets the requirements for completing the placement slot.
However, the required time was too long. Wang Yu shook his head after taking a look. Just the time required to deduce and supplement to the Four Divine Patterns Realm was the same as that of the Ice Phoenix Crying Heaven Melody.
"The path of the Star God emphasizes the Dao and the primordial spirit, especially in terms of the Dao principles, which can help me overtake others by taking a shortcut. I must not let this opportunity slip by."
Even if he only inherits one to three patterns, it is enough for him to cultivate at this stage.
One Taiyin Divine Mark is equivalent to a Divine Transformation.
Two Taiyin Divine Patterns are equivalent to the Refinement of Emptiness, three patterns are equivalent to the peak of the Refinement of Emptiness, and so on. An eight-patterned Star God is comparable to the Tribulation Transcending, and a nine-patterned Star God is comparable to an Immortal.
Beyond that, we cannot know.
The Star God was born with a mark that surpassed even the True Spirit Bloodline, a truly astonishing display of divine favor! It is something to be envied!
“Cultivating the Taiyin Refining Body Treasure Talisman can only be done by placing it in the storage slot, but after I truly forge the first Taiyin Divine Rune, my primordial spirit will definitely undergo a fundamental change. At that time, I will be able to absorb and refine the Taiyin attribute natural treasures to advance my realm... In that case, it will be difficult to sell the large number of spiritual items I have obtained before in exchange for immortal resources.”
A multitude of thoughts raced through Wang Yu's mind.
This path of the Star God can be cultivated concurrently. He previously suffered the bitter consequences of insufficient primordial spirit after his physical body perished. If he had a primordial spirit essence comparable to that of the Star God, there would be absolutely no possibility of developing a second consciousness.
The only thing to consider is whether the Path of the Star God is forbidden by the Immortal Palace. After all, according to the bits and pieces revealed in the cultivation method, the Star God was once the orthodox sect of the vast Immortal Realm.
But power transitions are always inevitably bloody.
After a moment's thought, Wang Yu shook his head, denying his own speculation; today was different from the past.
The inclusiveness of the Immortal Path is arguably the greatest in history!
Moreover, the human race has already produced nine True Immortals, becoming a major force in the universe and a superior race among all races. It is no longer in a state of decline.
Whether the method is forbidden or not is not important, since, in common sense, humans cannot cultivate it at all. He is only worried that his race will change after he formally enters the sect.
After all, there has been a long history of cultivators seizing the bodies of true spirits.
However, as long as the essence of his primordial spirit remains unchanged, he can still identify himself as a human. If the change is too great, it will affect his path to joining the Immortal Palace in the future.
"It seems I have no other choice..."
Wang Yu smiled bitterly to himself.
In the current situation, every bit of strength brings a bit more hope. He really has no choice, and changing the fundamental nature of the situation would be a good thing for him.
If one's status truly reaches the level of being born from heaven and earth.
The ancient demon of life left him with a backup plan, which will likely be useless against him. Don't you see that harming the spirits of heaven and earth will bring divine retribution? What about the gods born from heaven and earth?
This is like the difference between a favored eldest son and a son born out of wedlock.
It makes no sense that Heaven helps the illegitimate son when he suffers, but turns a blind eye to the suffering of the eldest legitimate son.
certainly.
These are all Wang Yu's guesses. Whether they will succeed or not is another matter. However, there are some things he is certain of, and that is, once he cultivates a Taiyin Divine Pattern.
The demon could never possess him, and he might still find it difficult to escape, but this was the true prerequisite for his desire for a fair trade. This essence of not being able to be manipulated at will was his true need.
Ultimately, people have to rely on themselves!
"Practice it."
After rearranging the order of the slots, Wang Yu changed the slot for the rotating imagery to "Taiyin Refining Form Treasure Record," thus making this technique exclusive to him.
in this way.
After spending several days and receiving feedback several more times, I arrived at a general conclusion.
"The placement of this technique can draw upon the Yin essence from the darkness, altering the nature of my primordial spirit. Rather than cultivation, it is more of a fundamental improvement than cultivation in the conventional sense. No wonder humans cannot even begin to learn it."
What is the concept of the origin of Yin?
Take the projection of the Moon Star that he is currently standing on, for example. It also contains the origin, but the amount is far from abundant. If it were forcibly taken away, the Moon would most likely collapse naturally.
In this way, the Ice Prison Realm will be without the moon, and the impact will be very wide. For example, the inheritance of cultivating the Ghost Path and absorbing the moon's essence will be destroyed by 90%.
And it is very difficult for such rare and precious creatures to be born again.
Disrupting the normal circulation of spiritual energy... and so on.
The origin of stars has a profound influence; if the original star is damaged, it will affect all worlds within the vast Immortal Realm.
This shows that he even absorbed the essence of Yin in the placement area, which is truly impressive.
In fact, he had long suspected that the placement bar was not something that had appeared out of thin air.
It's very likely that he stole this special power from somewhere, but he just couldn't detect it.
"Well, there's no need to think too much about it. As long as it satisfies me, that's fine."
Harboring such thoughts.
Wang Yu made a fortune from his lunar mission and had nothing to complain about. After leaving the Moon Palace, he wandered aimlessly for another month within the universe contained in the laurel tree.
After confirming that no opportunity had been missed, he once again used the Yin Nether Eye to guide him back to the Void Dao Treasury Secret Realm through the Moon-Ben Passage.
There's no need to worry about the Taoist Kongkong on this trip.
The other party was too busy to be in two places at once to suppress the ancient demon. After returning this time, he said goodbye to Xingyue and the others, and then he could go out to collect the four Feng Shui tokens. Then he would risk contacting and negotiating with the living demon's body.
Only by resolving all hidden dangers can we enter the Jade Void Glazed Wall.
He could then begin to leave the cage and smuggle himself to another world, where it would be a completely new place.
Complete freedom.
"The sea is wide enough for fish to leap, and the sky is high enough for birds to fly. I, Wang Yu, have toiled for half my life and will finally overcome all difficulties and obstacles. I am only one step away from the final goal!"
