Chapter 394: The Watchful Eyes from the Netherworld
Lu Yi naturally agreed to the request of the Yu family's immortals.
He now hopes even more that the Yu family's immortal masters can make breakthroughs, and it would be best if each of them can reach the Immortal King realm, so that his pressure will be less.
Not many people knew about the breakthrough of the Yu family's immortals this time. Only Yu Xin and a few other high-level members of the Yu family knew about the situation. Together with Lu Yi, they came to a desolate planet not far from Yuxing.
The immortals of the Yu family plan to make a breakthrough here.
"My fellow ancestors, do you want to gain enlightenment one by one or together?" Lu Yi looked at the immortals of the Yu family and asked.
Yu Xuanyi and the others looked at each other, and then Yu Yuanyou said slowly: "Come one by one, I'll go first."
Yuying explained with a smile: "We have already discussed it before. After all, Yucheng encountered an accident when he was comprehending before. If there is an accident when comprehending together, it will be troublesome for you, Yier. It is better to do it one by one. Even if there is no accident, we can observe it first, which will also be helpful for our own comprehension."
Lu Yi nodded, naturally did not refute, and chuckled: "If Ancestor Yuanyou can break through, it can indeed be a reference for you."
Yu Boyun nodded, looked at Yu Xin, Yu Xianyun and others on the side, and said: "You should also watch the ceremony carefully. This will also be of great help to your understanding of the origin."
Yu Xin and the others nodded naturally. Although they came here to protect the ancestors of the Yu family, they all knew that with Lu Yi here, they had nothing to do. Their most important purpose was to gain enlightenment here.
"Let's get started."
Yu Yuanyou acted decisively and without saying much, after adjusting his mentality, he sat cross-legged on a piece of barren ground.
He took out various pills to assist in his understanding, as well as pills to improve his state of mind, and took them in case of emergency.
Although he didn't think he would have the same inner demons as Yu Cheng's previous insights, he still wanted to be safe.
Yu Yuanyou immersed himself in the laws, integrated the avenue, and began to comprehend the origin. The space around him began to distort, and worlds emerged one after another.
These worlds seem very unreal, like phantoms in the wind.
In addition, mysterious Taoist lights appeared around Yu Yuanyou, and Taoist patterns representing the laws of fantasy condensed in the Taoist lights, flowing around Yu Yuanyou's body.
Lu Yi and others were silent, watching this scene quietly.
Time passed, and after a few hours, the illusory world around Yu Yuanyou suddenly fluctuated and began to condense towards the real direction. The Dao patterns around Yu Yuanyou became more complex and mysterious, as if they were one with the Tao. Even if one was just watching, endless mysteries of the laws were revealed.
Everyone was shocked, and Yu Xin and others did not dare to miss even the slightest opportunity, absorbing the process of the fusion of the fantasy law and the avenue.
At this moment, Yu Yuanyou's body shook, and the expression on his face gradually became more ferocious. In the fantasy world around him, wisps of black mist emerged, and demonic energy filled the air.
Seeing this scene, Yu Xuanyi and others' pupils contracted.
"Inner demon!"
"Just like Yu Cheng, another inner demon has really been born!"
They felt extremely heavy-hearted and somewhat worried.
I didn’t expect that a demon in my heart would actually be born!
Lu Yi's heart was also heavy. If it was just that the inner demon appeared when Patriarch Yucheng was comprehending the origin, then it would be nothing. But now that the inner demon also appeared when Patriarch Yuanyou was comprehending the origin, this made people feel a little suspicious.
Perhaps this is the reason why no new Immortal Kings or Immortal Emperors have been born in the universe over the years.
If all immortals who have reached the stage of understanding the origin will have inner demons, then how many can break through the inner demons? Lu Yi's mind was full of thoughts, but his body had already started moving.
As soon as he took a step, he appeared next to Yu Yuanyou. Demonic energy was flowing in the virtual world, and the phantom of Yu Yuanyou, condensed by the inner demon, was rushing towards Lu Yi.
However, Lu Yi only calmly glanced at the phantoms of these Immortal Lords, and these phantoms froze in place, and then turned into wisps of black mist and disappeared.
Seeing this scene, Yu Xuanyi and others who were originally a little worried were stunned.
Everyone looked at Lu Yi in confusion, with a lot of question marks in their minds.
They looked at each other with strange expressions.
“…This is the phantom of the inner demon at the level of Immortal Venerable, with extraordinary power, but it actually…it actually disappeared just like that?” Yu Xuanyi exclaimed in disbelief.
"...How did Yier do it? What did he do?" Yuying also cried out.
Even though they were all powerful Immortal Lords, they still couldn't figure out how Lu Yi did it.
Not only them, but Yu Xin and others beside them were also extremely shocked.
The last time when dealing with Yu Cheng’s inner demons, Lu Yi’s performance was not so relaxed.
But if you think about it carefully, Lu Yi's strength back then is naturally different from what it is now. Now he has reached the realm of Immortal Venerable.
Becoming stronger again...
Yu Xin and the others sighed in their hearts, feeling quite unreal.
While they were astonished, the aura of the Great Dao had already emerged from Lu Yi's body, enveloping Yu Yuanyou, who had a ferocious expression. At the same time, he used the "Taixuan Qingxin Mantra" to wipe out his inner demons.
The effect was immediate. Before long, Yu Yuanyou's expression calmed down, his body stopped shaking, and his breath became calm again.
Soon, the original Dao patterns around Yu Yuanyou condensed, and the virtual world became closer to reality. Seeing this, Lu Yi withdrew the Dao energy and disappeared on the spot.
He understood that Yu Yuanyou's comprehension was successful. At this moment, he also merged with the Dao and comprehended the origin of fantasy.
Not long after, Yu Yuanyou opened his eyes, and a hint of fear flashed across his eyes.
After he stood up, he flew back to Lu Yi and others.
Yu Xuan and a few others went to greet them.
"Yuanyou, how's it going? Are you okay?"
Yu Yuanyou shook his head with lingering fear, then looked at Lu Yi and said, "Thanks to Yi'er, otherwise I would have been devoured by the inner demon."
Lu Yi smiled and said, "You are too polite, Old Ancestor Yuanyou. This is what I should do."
Then Lu Yi paused and asked, "Ancestor, why do you have a demon in your heart?"
Lu Yi's words made Yu Xuanyi and others nearby also curious, and they looked at Yu Yuanyou.
The cultivators of the Yu Family are the type that are not prone to inner demons. However, when they were comprehending the origin, two consecutive ancestors who were able to cultivate to the level of Immortal Venerable developed inner demons. This was too strange.
Hearing this, Yu Yuanyou's expression suddenly became complicated. He paused and said, "... I saw the same scene as Yu Cheng at that time. The Nine Nether Qi was surging everywhere, and there were countless powerful Nine Nether Demons. They seemed to have noticed me and all looked at me. Some of them were very scary. Just looking at me made me lose my mind and even had a demon in my heart."
Lu Yi, Yu Xuan and others listened to Yu Yuanyou's description in silence.
"This... is the same as what Patriarch Yu Cheng saw back then... Could it be that Jiuyou is really influencing the Immortal Venerable's perception of the original power?" Yu Xin muttered to himself, his expression a little dazed.
As the person who had witnessed Yu Cheng comprehending the origin last time, he naturally knew what Yu Cheng had experienced last time.
What Yu Yuanyou experienced this time was no different from what Yu Cheng experienced last time. They all saw Jiuyou, and eventually, he developed inner demons because of Jiuyou's gaze.
The expressions of Yu Xianyun and the others were extremely solemn.
"No wonder...there has never been a new Immortal King or Immortal Emperor in the universe for so many years. Perhaps this is a big part of the reason." Yu Xuanyi frowned.
If you can’t even comprehend the origin, how can you become an Immortal King or Immortal Emperor?
“Are the strong ones in the Nine Netherworlds really so terrifying? Even if they are in another world, they can interfere with the Immortal Venerable-level strong ones from comprehending the original power?” An Immortal Lord of the Yu Family had a pale expression, with a bit of despair in his eyes.
Such power is unheard of and unseen.
No one answered, after all, the facts were right in front of them.
After a moment of silence, Lu Yi suddenly thought of something, then smiled and said, "I have an idea that may help all the ancestors stop suffering from their inner demons."
Everyone was shocked and looked at Lu Yi.
"What idea?" Yuying asked curiously.
Lu Yi narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "I previously blocked the Jiuyou channel with the Great Dao Immortal Formation. Since this breakthrough is also related to the Jiuyou, perhaps I can set up a Great Dao Immortal Formation and use the aura of the Great Dao to block the gaze from the Jiuyou."
Lu Yi himself didn't notice anything when he was comprehending the origin. He had previously thought that Patriarch Yu Cheng was a special case. Now, after experiencing the situation of Patriarch Yu Yuanyou, he understood that he was the special case.
After all, he had been absorbing the energy of the Great Dao and the energy of chaos since before he became an immortal. His body was completely isolated by the Nine Netherworlds and could not be observed.
Perhaps that was the case. When he was comprehending the origin, he did not notice the gaze from Jiuyou and there was nothing unusual at all.
Thinking of this, Lu Yi felt a little strange in his heart, but at the same time he was also somewhat fortunate. Fortunately, he had the spirit of the Great Dao, otherwise, he might also develop a mental demon.
The situation will be very troublesome then.
Now that we know the reason, there is a way to deal with it. Use the energy of the Great Dao to block the gaze from the Nine Netherworlds, and then everything will be easy.
Hearing Lu Yi's words, the eyes of Yu Xuanyi and others became brighter and brighter.
"Yes! The Great Dao Immortal Array arranged by Yier can even block the Nine Netherworld Passage, let alone the gaze coming from the Nine Netherworld? If those Nine Netherworld powerhouses are really so powerful, they would have broken through the Great Dao Immortal Array, broken through the Nine Netherworld Passage and came to our world long ago!" Yu Xuanyi clenched his fists excitedly and smiled.
The others also breathed a sigh of relief, and even the coldest Yu Yunqing raised the corner of his mouth.
As for Yu Xin and the others, they were also smiling. Although they no longer could comprehend the origin now, they would always have hope of reaching this step in the future. With a method, they would naturally be much safer.
Lu Yi did what he said and began to set up the Dao Immortal Array on the surface of the planet.
Because it was only for the purpose of comprehending the origin, the range of the Dao Immortal Array that Lu Yi arranged was very small, and it only took Lu Yi a moment to complete the arrangement.
A Dao Immortal Array formed by the connection of mysterious Dao patterns appeared above the wasteland. The Dao Qi surged, enveloping the area.
Lu Yi chuckled and said, "Who wants to give it a try?"
Yu Xuanyi and the others looked at each other, and then Yu Ying smiled eagerly and said, "In that case, let me give it a try!"
Lu Yi nodded, then opened the Dao Immortal Formation and allowed Yuying to enter.
Yuying sat cross-legged and, like Yu Yuanyou before, began to comprehend the origin.
The process went very smoothly. Before long, the patterns of laws and Dao around Yuying began to become mysterious and complex, transforming into patterns of origin, and the phantom of the world around them began to change towards reality.
At this point, Yu Xuan and the others were all nervous.
They all understood that Yu Ying had successfully comprehended the origin, but it was at this step that Yu Yuanyou and Yu Cheng attracted Jiuyou's attention and their inner demons emerged.
Everyone stared at Yuying in the fairy formation.
Soon, the fantasy world around Yuying almost completely turned into reality, and the original Dao pattern was also completely condensed.
Until Yuying slowly opened her eyes, everyone still felt it was a little unreal.
"…It's over? Success?" Yu Boyun murmured.
Yu Xin and the others were overjoyed.
"It really works! With Yi'er's Dao Immortal Formation here, we can really block out the gaze from the Nine Netherworld through the Dao Qi!"
"Hahaha! This way, we can feel at ease and gain enlightenment!"
Yu Xuan and the others all had smiles on their faces.
Lu Yi also raised the corner of his mouth and felt relaxed. It seemed that his previous thoughts were correct.
He opened the Dao Immortal Formation, and Yu Ying flew out. Yu Xuanyi immediately asked, "How is it? Is there anything unusual?"
Yuying looked at Lu Yi beside her, her beautiful eyes rolling, and she said with a smile: "No, thanks to Yi'er."
The fiery look in those eyes seemed as if they wanted to eat Lu Yi up, as if they were saying they wanted to promise each other with their voices.
Lu Yi was a little stiff at the sight of such a bold look, because this was the ancestor of his master.
Even he was somewhat embarrassed.
"Well, it seems that this great Dao Immortal Formation is indeed useful. My fellow ancestors, you can go in and gain insights." Lu Yi looked at Yu Xuan and the others.
Several people nodded, and then Yu Xuanyi went in first. He successfully comprehended the origin without any mental demons.
This also made Yu Boyun and Yu Yunqing completely relieved.
The two of them entered the Dao Immortal Array one after another and successfully comprehended the origin of illusion.
Since then, several ancestors of the Yu family have all realized the origin of illusion, and they are just waiting for their cultivation to be perfect before they can consider a breakthrough.
Seeing this, Lu Yi took out a wisp of Dao Qi and distributed it to them.
Seeing these great Dao Qi, Yu Xuanyi and the others immediately thought of the scene when Lu Yi refined the great Dao Qi under the horrific thunder tribulation, and their scalps went numb.
However, they did not act pretentiously. They accepted all the energy of the Dao and waited to use it when they broke through later.
After doing all this, everyone left the desolate planet in surprise and returned to the Jade Planet.
…………
A few months later, Lu Yi, who was in seclusion, suddenly felt a majestic and terrifying aura emerging. The aura was so strong that even a huge planet like Yuxing, which was decorated with various large formations, began to tremble slightly.
At this moment, all the cultivators in Yuxing looked in the direction where the breath came from with horror.
A stream of light shot up into the sky and instantly rushed into the void, carrying with it a terrifying pressure that made people tremble with fear.
This was a pressure far beyond that of the Immortal Lord realm; even Lu Yi felt a hint of pressure.
He exhaled slightly and smiled.
It’s Patriarch Yucheng, he has finally broken through to the Immortal King level!
Lu Yi stepped out and followed.
In addition to Lu Yi, the Yu family's immortals and high-level officials who were in seclusion also came out, turned into streams of light, and caught up with the breaking through Yu Cheng.
They understood that this was a critical period for the Yu family, and even for the entire universe.
If Yu Cheng can break through to the Immortal King realm, then the universe will have the first Immortal King since ancient times! Thanks to 08a for the 100 points reward~ (End of this chapter)
