Chapter 678 The Heaven-Defying Demon Lord's Ancient Thunder Pool Baptism
If he didn't obtain information about the place where the Star God fell, then the Candle Maiden's value to him would be very limited. She couldn't possibly leave the Demon Refining Domain, and Wang Yu himself had already broken through to the late stage of the Void Refining Realm, so he didn't need such a dispensable henchman.
We'll see.
If he really wanted to take it out, there was a 90% chance that the Great Demon Heaven wouldn't approve it, so Wang Yu was caught in a dilemma.
As for the Three Ancient Calamities, the Vanguard of Another Universe, and other secrets.
He didn't even bother asking. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. Many things will naturally come to mind when one's strength and cultivation reach a certain level; you can't force it.
Seeing his disappointed expression, the candle maid also frowned.
A few images flashed through her mind, and she suddenly exclaimed with delight, "Little Moon Venerable, I've suddenly thought of a place!"
"Please feel free to speak."
"The meteorite crater is located within the Demon Refining Domain and is also the earliest birthplace of the lower gods. Now that I think about it... it may be the place where the body of a star god who wielded the Great Dao of Yin crashed."
"Overcast?" Wang Yu repeated, his brows furrowed.
After receiving guidance from Master Saint Dan.
He had lost interest in forging another path to comprehend the corresponding laws. Time was a factor, but the scale of his operation had become too large, and he also had his limits.
It's not about having more; ideally, it should complement your own system and leave room for the future. The most outstanding geniuses in human history were those who comprehended the three thousand Great Daos simultaneously.
He was so greedy that he never even broke through to the Dao Integration Realm.
The story of someone who tried to extend his lifespan with various rare treasures but still died before reaching the limit of his lifespan of ten thousand years was widely circulated and served as a warning.
Otherwise, he would also be a prodigy with the potential to ascend to immortality.
Taiyin, slaughter, and space—these are the three paths. There is also the Yellow Springs, whose fate is not yet fully determined, while Illusionary Light is advancing in the direction of time.
And the ultimate power, the foundation of all transformations, and so on.
There is too much to comprehend. If this Great Dao of Yin cannot be integrated with the Yellow Springs, it will be worthless. We need to understand it more thoroughly before we can discuss it further.
His physical body already possesses the qualities of the Taiyin Star God, while his divine embryo has cultivated the "Heavenly Demon Star God Refining Form Treasure Book." He doesn't know if the Myriad Transformations Seizing the Dao can avoid the conflict of the Star God's position.
Therefore.
Ideally, the Star God Ancient Corpse should be that of the Moon Lord.
When the fake becomes real, as long as there is complete bloodline information, it can be perfectly reproduced by the Heavenly Demon Seizing the Dao. The corpse and essence blood are just carriers of this information.
Thinking of this.
Wang Yu suddenly remembered the Heavenly Dao. As a special existence that has witnessed the creation of heaven and earth from the beginning to the present day, the Heavenly Dao contains endless information.
Ninety-nine percent of what people call the art of divination is actually the art of questioning the heavens. If viewed through the lens of his past life, the Great Dao of Cause and Effect could even be considered "data-driven deduction"!
However, he could not take the Heavenly Dao as an object and attempt to seize it.
The Heavenly Dao of the Cosmic Sea, the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Realm, and the Heavenly Dao of the World differ in size and have completely different upper limits of strength.
Even if you can't devour the heavens, having the ability to directly "search the soul" of the Heavenly Dao is still pretty good.
For a moment, Wang Yu's idea was a bit too optimistic.
It took him a while to come to his senses, and he sighed helplessly.
"I understand. I'll look into it when I have time. That's all for today."
"Little Moon Venerable..."
"No need to say more," Wang Yu said, raising his hand. "The Divine Court is a thing of the past, and the gods and spirits of heaven and earth no longer exist. Let me find more of my kind before we talk about anything else."
The Candle Maiden nodded in disappointment and responded.
"I see."
in this way.
Wang Yu had basically achieved his goal on this trip. Just as he was about to take a look at the Starfall Sinkhole, his divine consciousness spirit body left in the Demon Slaughtering Palace suddenly detected the abnormal movement of the True Demon Token.
Perhaps the Demon Lord's temper came and went quickly.
He had already put Wang Yu's cricket-related matters behind him, and the Primordial Thunder Pool usage qualification that he had redeemed more than ten years ago had jumped to the top spot.
It also projected a map of the Demon Refining Domain.
Tell him to hurry to the light.
Having ascended to immortality over sixty years ago, he has yet to see the true full picture of the Demon Cultivation Realm, nor has he come to realize the vastness of the Nine Realms of the Human Race's peak. This is indeed an opportunity.
…………
Several days later.
A square-faced, ordinary-looking young man dressed in black and gold robes, his face half-hidden by a jade-faced fox mask inlaid with gold, is holding a folding fan with ink and wash paintings.
One side features landscape, the other side displays calligraphy.
The phrase "the devil is one zhang tall" suggests a proud and aloof individual standing at the designated location, awaiting his arrival.
As for why Wang Yu could tell at a glance that he looked ordinary.
Although that half of the face had a concealing effect, the bone structure couldn't hide it; the lower half of the face was exposed, along with the square jawline and the position of the eyes and nostrils.
It's easy to deduce the distribution of facial features; you don't even need to use your divine sense to penetrate half of his face to "guess" what he looks like.
Wang Yu's gaze was strange, as if he were looking at someone who was burying their head in the sand, but he didn't skip any formalities.
"Is that Brother Daoist Da Motian?"
The square-faced senior brother covered his face with the fan in his hand, revealing his high-bridged nose: "Blood Beast Worry-Free, is it you who applied for the Primordial Thunder Pool baptism?"
"……yes."
"I, the [Heaven-Defying Venerable], will take you to the Primordial Thunder Pool in the Boundless Realm this time. Come with me."
The two-character Venerable One signifies the late stage of the Dao Integration Realm.
When one comprehends a certain law to the point of near 100%, and is about to reach the next stage of law cultivation, one is given the title of "Defying Heaven," a magical title that only a true person can bestow. This title not only attracts hatred but also makes one easily regarded as an idiot.
Speaking of which, cultivators who have reached this level of cultivation are already quite rare to find with an ordinary appearance. Even demonic arts with significant side effects should return to their original simplicity and move towards the Great Dao.
The evolution of life levels has resulted in an abundance of handsome men and beautiful women among the upper-level cultivators, and this Heaven-Defying Venerable not only has a heaven-defying title, but is also heaven-defying in appearance.
In fact, it's a bit ugly.
Wang Yu felt an itch in his heart, like a cat scratching at him, and he really wanted to say something; he had an urge to get it all out.
Just as he was about to speak.
The sudden warning from Shangshanjing instantly snapped him back to full alertness, causing cold sweat to bead on his forehead.
"May I ask, fellow Daoist, what kind of Great Dao do you cultivate? It has a magical effect of mockery, amplifying the arrogance and prejudice in people's hearts to the extreme."
Years of cultivation and experience have brought Wang Yu a clear mind and made him realize the insidious nature of Demon Lord-level beings. This kind of subtle and gradual influence is the most terrifying.
The latter laughed and wasn't in a hurry to send Wang Yu away.
"Indeed, you are the first Void Refinement Demon Seed in nearly a thousand years to see through my [Intellectual Disability Domain]. No wonder you were granted special training privileges."
"The realm of the mentally challenged...?"
Wang Yu looked surprised, finding it difficult to understand the underlying metaphysical principles.
"This secret technique can reduce the enemy's spiritual awareness, mislead them to a certain extent, and generate a great desire to mock me, so that they will underestimate me without realizing it."
"Many times, I can't even use my trump card before I'm wiped out by the real master. It's very easy and comfortable. It's also surprisingly effective when dealing with some brutes."
"If the opponent is a chatterbox, this personality weakness will be magnified, and they will become fond of introducing their supernatural abilities."
After listening.
Besides being speechless, Wang Yu was even more surprised, and couldn't even figure out which law was related to it.
but.
The reason why this person named himself the Heaven-Defying Venerable and deliberately made himself ugly has also been explained, but... this stupid secret technique seems to have a certain effect on him as well.
It concerns the underlying weaknesses and fundamental principles.
The demon lord, who came from the Great Demon Heaven, didn't say much more, but instead began to talk at length about the upgraded version of this method and its derivative applications.
For example, casting spells remotely, marking the presence behind a target.
He wanted to make the other party underestimate him, so they would only send someone with a cultivation level one or two minor levels higher to deal with him.
For example, causing fairies and saints to lose their minds, say indecent things in public, or make some kind of reckless gamble that puts them at risk.
That's practically a sneaky, divine technique.
Wang Yu listened with great interest and was no longer in a hurry to go to the Primordial Thunder Pool. This fellow Daoist from the Great Demon Heaven was truly interesting.
He heard it a lot, and that came with his broadened horizons and knowledge.
I have a vague feeling that this "stupid series of supernatural powers" is likely a kind of spell related to the Great Dao of Destiny. The word "destiny" is so heavy, and it is a path that is even rarer than cause and effect.
Throughout the entire ancient history of the human race, there are fewer than ten beings who have comprehended this path. Therefore, Wang Yu has great patience for this heaven-defying demon lord.
They would occasionally chime in with a few words, which meant that half a day later they were still chatting away in the same spot.
Listening to this person recount those anecdotes about famous people is also a form of spiritual practice.
Until the morning of the next day.
The Demon Lord, who had just recovered from the strange backlash, turned bright red, his once talkative self becoming completely mute, and he never spoke another word to him.
Wang Yu also felt dizzy, as if he had entered a boundary gate.
With eyes closed and open.
The world has changed!
…………
Boundless Realm.
One of the nine peak realms of the human race, the territory of the Boundless Immortal, whose Daoist temple is called [Longevity Heaven], holds a very high position. He is the third ancient human to become an immortal.
He appears as a kind and gentle old man, is extremely homebody, enjoys farming, is very knowledgeable about all kinds of spiritual plants and immortal flowers in the universe, and also has a peach orchard that is very popular.
I rarely go out.
But once he goes out, he always manages to do something big. For example, he snatched back the Primordial Thunder Pool. Sometimes he acts even more domineeringly than the Demon Lord.
He is simultaneously hailed as both the "most benevolent immortal" and the "most ruthless immortal." His methods towards other races are even more brutal than those of the demonic path. He possesses a magical treasure called the "Pacifying Banner," which is incredibly powerful.
His greatest love in life was bringing peace to other races, and he could not stand places of chaos. The legends about the Boundless Immortal are almost the most numerous among the human race.
In terms of seniority, he ranks third.
Xuande Zhenxian is low-key, while the Demon Lord is domineering but likes to hide his identity before doing bad things. Therefore, only he has the greatest reputation. Many alien races outside believe that Wuliang Xianweng is the number one immortal of the human race!
Suddenly, we arrived in this boundless realm.
Wang Yu is currently standing on a high platform where four jade corridors intersect.
Like an altar, it is engraved with circles of inscriptions, with an endless sea of clouds on both sides, occasionally revealing celestial palaces, jade towers, and golden palaces.
Every so often, a pool is carved out of the jade bridge, where no fewer than ten thousand lotus seeds are planted, in all sorts of colors: green, white, red, purple, gold, blue...
The figures of auspicious mythical creatures such as white cranes, phoenixes, feathered snakes, and phoenixes leisurely glide across the sky, exuding a carefree and serene air, adding to the ethereal atmosphere of the place.
In an instant, I felt as if I had entered a celestial realm.
"What a beautiful place."
"Fellow Daoist has excellent eyesight."
The Demon Lord who defied the heavens did not come along.
The person who greeted Wang Yu was a cultivator who had been waiting by the teleportation platform. He was dressed in a purple robe with a trigram pattern, wore a lotus crown, and had a whisk resting on his elbow. He looked like a fairy and had an elegant demeanor.
Her appearance was also naturally beautiful, with rosy lips and white teeth, ethereal and otherworldly.
"How shall I address you, fellow Daoist?"
“I am Tongyun. I have already communicated with Fellow Daoist Wuyou on behalf of the Great Demon Heaven. You can now come with me to the Primordial Thunder Pool to receive baptism.”
"This is troublesome."
"Of course."
After exchanging a few words, Wang Yu followed the other party away. Because Tongyun Daoist's cultivation level was not high, only at the early stage of Refining Void, Wang Yu could see right through him at a glance.
but.
The so-called low cultivation level is actually the standard for judgment in the Demon Refining Domain.
In normal places in the Nine Realms, cultivators at the Refinement stage can actually serve as the leaders of a celestial city. Only in prosperous places like the main cities of the human race can one or two Dao Integration experts be in charge.
Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation cultivators are both considered the backbone of the human race.
Refining Void is already a master, and Harmonizing Dao is known as a great power. Although he often takes action, the intensity is far less than that of the Demon Refining Domain. The rules of the Demon Cultivation Realm are fundamentally different from those of these peaceful places.
After admiring the beautiful scenery, Wang Yu felt somewhat uncomfortable.
He's become a master!
Moreover, this Daoist Tongyun is kind and honest, answering all questions without hiding anything. This Boundless Realm is truly a blessed land for immortals, a good place to cultivate longevity.
We didn't see many people along the way, giving the impression that the area was sparsely populated.
About half an incense stick's worth.
Tongyun Daoist led Wang Yu to a pavilion in a lotus pond. A jade staircase extended outwards, leading directly to the center of the pond. At the end of the staircase was a viewing platform, above which stood a golden gate.
“Fellow Daoist Wuyou, this is where the Immortal Elder often fishes. Through that golden gate, you can directly enter the Primordial Thunder Pool and observe the flourishing of your qi and blood. You will be able to complete the baptism in at most one year. Please.”
After another round of thanks, Wang Yu gladly went to the destination.
I haven't verified it, but I've heard other geniuses in the Mountain and Sea Realm say that demonic cultivators are discriminated against and ostracized. Isn't this person a pretty good person?
But after Wang Yu entered Kinmen...
Tongyun Daoist's expression quickly turned cold, even showing disgust, and he used a cleansing spell to scrub himself several times.
"These bastards are utterly repulsive! I don't know what the Immortal Elder was thinking, letting such things in instead of letting my fellow disciples enjoy the benefits of the Thunder Pool baptism."
This cloud has two distinct faces.
However, he was still rational enough not to say these things in front of Wang Yu. After all, this matter was the result of communication between the Great Demon Heaven and the Longevity Heaven. If he interfered, it would be disrespectful to the Immortal Elder.
His personal likes and dislikes wouldn't be enough to make him do such a thing.
after all.
The opportunity to cultivate in the boundless realm is even more important, as it concerns his personal future, and it is not in his interest to cause trouble for him.
What Tongyun didn't realize was that before entering the Golden Gate, Wang Yu left a divine thought attached to the door frame. Although he liked the cultivation environment of this world, it didn't mean he would let his guard down.
When you're traveling, you should be wary of even your own people.
This is the true nature of a demonic cultivator.
Inside the Golden Gate lies another void of thunderous chaos. Upon hearing Tong Yun's words, Wang Yu felt a mixture of anger and concern for the fate of the demonic path.
Being a loner is not a good thing.
