Pan Wang Sky-Opening Art! The Tomb Ship Emerges!

At the summit of the mountain.

The Green Divine Bird looked down at the Gate of Light in the void, where the images and Gate of Light subtly changed, revealing scenes from the Trial Ground.

"The Trial Ground were created by the fourth generation of the Mountain Lord! Normally, to establish such a virtual space, only many powerful individuals can personally record their various abilities so that they can be left for future generations to test and fight. This requires extremely high standards for the operation of the core and cannot simulate overly powerful beings."

"However, the fourth generation mountain lord's awakened talent is extremely heaven-defying, possessing unfathomable abilities. He can easily detect the various abilities of other powerful individuals from weak to strong, and completely simulate and record them with his consciousness!"

"This Trial Ground is a world of consciousness that he personally constructed, allowing future generations to fight against various virtual opponents here. Every opponent they face is no different from the real ones."

"There are a total of 3,642 opponents in the Trial Ground! And Kui is a Super Existence under the command of the Purple Wood Divine King of the Heavenly Wood Country, worthy of Saint-Level!"

"Junior... surviving the clutches of Kui, who is also Law Venerable, is the first test I give you!" the Green Divine Bird said silently.

On the surface, the test it gave Lin Yan to kill Kui.

However... Kui Nai comes from the powerful nation of "Heavenly Wood Country" on the Origin Continent, while the little guy in front of him only comes from the Cosmic Sea. In the eyes of the Green Divine Bird, this is impossible.

The real test was simply to fight and survive; it said this only to motivate Lin Yan.

Inside the Trial Ground.

The purple-armored man, "Kui," controlled millions of golden rays to envelop Lin Yan, instantly distorting space and time, disrupting the Time Flow Rate, and shattering the space itself.

Boom!

A magnificent display of golden light!

"Um?"

Lin Yan raised an eyebrow and raised his hands, slowly revealing elegant light gold gauntlets. His left hand was surrounded by streams of black energy, while his right hand was surrounded by streams of white energy. Together, they formed a complex black and white energy pattern.

The black and white airflow diagram shows the air moving upwards!

Splash—

The black and white air currents swirled and converged directly into a strange, enormous millstone. The upper layer shone with light, as everything returned to its origin, while the lower layer was endless darkness, as all things were brought to an end. Instantly, heaven and earth reversed, frantically crushing the millions of golden lights and obliterating them with overwhelming force.

"So weak?" Lin Yan was somewhat taken aback.

When he saw his opponent make a move, he immediately sensed something was wrong. It turned out to be just the "Heaven and Earth Millstone" he had created a long time ago, which wasn't even Tier 5 secret technique. This purple-armored man couldn't even withstand it.

"Divine Power Burning Secret Technique? Interesting." Kui looked at Lin Yan coldly, and his divine power suddenly erupted.

"Slap slap..."

Thousands of golden rays intertwined and crisscrossed, forming a giant golden whip that swept across the sky and lashed directly at Lin Yan in the distance.

A sharp glint flashed in Lin Yan's eyes. After thinking for a moment, he did not take out the Yuan Embryo "Xuanyuan Sword". Kun-fixing Sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.

"Roar!"

Accompanied by a shrill roar, a ferocious Five Beast God instantly appeared, charging forward as if burning its life force, leaving behind a trail of shrill, five-colored sword light in the void.

The five-colored sword light and the golden whip collided, causing the golden whip to shatter instantly, and a powerful shockwave spread outwards.

"Tier 5 peak!" The Green Divine Bird watching from outside brightened up. "As expected... the last person who could enter the Xuanli Divine Altar was a true god. For a Law Venerable to be able to enter is truly extraordinary."

To be able to comprehend a near-perfect Tier 5 peak secret technique at the level of Universe Venerable is enough to make one a dazzling genius among the many powerful forces on the Origin Continent, let alone in the Cosmic Sea.

"However... Kui was Saint-level Expert in his youth, with extremely comprehensive abilities in all aspects. He was extremely strong in close combat, Ranged Attack, movement techniques, and Supreme Treasure. If he seizes an opportunity, it is still possible to kill him."

The Green Divine Bird watched Lin Yan and Kui fighting fiercely in the Trial Ground and said softly.

Then it was seen that in close combat dodging techniques, Lin Yan seemed to transform into an ethereal sword shadow, holding his own against Lin Yan.

"His movement technique has reached this level? It seems he has a high level of understanding of the two Basic Laws of water and fire."

"It seems that only by activating the secret runes of the Supreme Treasure can Kui be suppressed... Our Original System does not use weapons that have been forged, but rather natal auxiliary weapons. The Universe Rule System is more proficient in the forging of treasures. By comprehending the secret runes of weapons, it can unleash powerful combat strength."

It continued to watch.

"Kill!"

Countless vines intertwined on Kui's body, transforming into two dazzling, enormous golden whips that lashed out at Lin Yan like a madman.

"It's the Gold Law and the Law of Wood!" A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Yan's eyes as he repeatedly met the attack with the Kun-fixing Sword, engaging in battle with Kui Xiang.

During this battle, he discovered that his opponent should also be Universe Venerable, with strength comparable to his own, and that the Tier 5 peak secret technique created by this "Kui" was powerful enough to rival the "Five Elements Beast God".

However, unlike the Integrated Strongest Secret Technique the Five Great Beast Gods paths, Kui's secret technique is to comprehend and understand the two Basic Laws of metal and wood. In his battles with Kui, Lin Yan's understanding of the two laws of metal and wood gradually improved.

He vaguely guessed that this Kui... might be a powerful figure who actually existed on the Origin Continent.

"This Trial Ground is truly a wonderful place," Lin Yan thought to himself. "At my level, my teacher's Virtual Universe can no longer function as effectively as before. After all, my teacher's abilities are also limited."

"But if I were to succeed as the Panwang Mountain Master, putting aside everything else, the opportunity to hone my skills and gain experience by battling against many powerful figures in the Trial Ground would be of countless benefits to me."

At this moment—

"Let's end it."

Kui shouted coldly and charged forward. He held a huge divine whip in his hand, with countless Golden Secret Patterns flowing on it. In an instant, a hazy golden light flashed in the void.

Tier 6 peak secret technique!

But this time it was not his Self-created secret technique, but Tier 6 peak secret technique that could activate the Supreme Treasure's runes.

"This is equivalent to Tier 6 Universe Master, and it's only the first test?" Lin Yan was speechless, and also glad that he was only Universe Venerable. If he were a Universe Lord, the test would definitely be much more difficult.

"But..."

"It's over."

Whew! Whew!

Countless golden vines extended and tightly bound Kui. Accompanied by a blue lotus that appeared in the void, Kui, who was only Universe Venerable god, had no power to resist and was completely wiped out.

"What?!" The Green Divine Bird stared in utter shock at the scene. "Tier 6 peak secret technique? How did this little guy manage to do that... He's merely a Law Venerable, yet he can create Tier 6 peak secret technique!"

The sixth rank represents a fundamental breakthrough.

On the Origin Continent, there are indeed some beings who can create Tier 6 peak secret technique when they are at the Law Venerable. However, they are all peerless geniuses with unlimited potential. They may even be favored by the high and mighty God King.

But this is just the Cosmic Sea, yet someone can still do this?

"Could it be... that I am waiting for Endless Samsara, only to find a worthy successor to the position of Mountain Lord?" Tears welled in the eyes of the Green Divine Bird. "My Panwang Mountain once stood at the very peak, enjoying endless glory, but it has encountered this calamity and almost perished. In order to continue the legacy, I have spared no effort in selecting a successor from the Cosmic Sea!"

"I never expected to escape such a desperate situation and meet such a junior!"

"Whether it's the Universe Rule System or the Original System, they all lead to the same goal. To be able to create Tier 6 peak secret technique at the Law Venerable level, and to have a will comparable to a true god, his physical and Soul Potential is definitely not ordinary, and his comprehension is extremely high. Perhaps he will awaken an extraordinary talent!"

The Green Divine Bird's mind stirred.

Whoosh!

Lin Yan was directly teleported from the Trial Ground to the summit of the mountain.

"The first test has been passed. What is the second test?" Lin Yan asked calmly, without showing any excitement or joy.

The Green Divine Bird shook its head. "Lin Yan, your excellence has exceeded my expectations. To be able to create Tier 6 peak secret technique at the Law Venerable level, the subsequent assessments are meaningless... because even if you fail, based on this performance alone, I will still allow you to come into contact with a trace of inheritance, so that you can develop your own unique talent."

"Hmm?" Lin Yan's eyes lit up.

After learning that this was a completely unknown Body Refinement, he had lost confidence in his "Three Lives Flower" technique. However, he did not expect that after actually using it, it would still cause a huge change in the attitude of the Green Divine Bird.

This is undoubtedly good news.

"Let's get to know each other again. You can call me 'Qing Cang.' I am the World Spirit created by the ancestors of Panwang Mountain," the Green Divine Bird said proudly.

"The World Spirit?" Lin Yan asked.

"The [Xuanli Divine Altar] you see outside is actually just an altar for worshipping the 'Heavenly Realm Stone'," Qing Cang said. "The Heavenly Realm Stone is a true treasure of Ancient Civilization. It is naturally born and naturally generates a world within it. This 'world' is extremely advanced and is far more special and powerful than the Small Universe in your Cosmic Sea."

"After the ancestors of Panwang Mountain obtained the Heavenly Realm Stone, they created Inheritance Land in this world, which contains a large number of independent Plane Space."

"And our ancestors, who stood at the Peak Existence the entire Ancient Civilization, went to great lengths to imbue the Heavenly Realm Stone with a spirit, allowing me to choose the truly suitable master," Qing Cang said proudly. "Except for the Second Generation Mountain Master, who was chosen by our ancestors, all the other mountain lords throughout history were personally selected by me."

Lin Yan couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

"What exactly is this awakening talent?" This was what he was most concerned about. If it was successful, the Heavenly Realm Stone could be studied later.

"The Original System is the oldest type of cultivation," Qing Cang said. "When the Ancient Ancestors were first born, this was the beginning of the All Things grow. They Born Divine and Holy, immortal, and everything was peaceful and beautiful."

"Besides the Ancient Ancestors, it also gave rise to some dangerous beings that could be easily preyed upon, making them realize their own weakness and begin to want to become stronger, gradually learning to use the Heaven and Earth Power to nurture themselves."

"Among them, my ancestors from Panwang Mountain were the most brilliant and talented, creating the Original System!"

"Take your Universe Rule System for example. It's about mastering a law to break free from constraints, establish a divine kingdom, and transform into Immortal Divine Body. The Original System, on the other hand, nurtures the 'Life Core,' into which the soul is integrated."

Lin Yan nodded.

The reason why Immortal God have Immortal Divine Body is that they comprehend a certain law, which allows the Universe Origin to descend, connect with the Sea of Laws, and transform into Immortal Divine Body. Since the Original System does not follow the path of comprehending the laws, it will naturally be different.

"That makes sense," Lin Yan thought to himself. "Even the Universe Rule System, once one enters the realm of a true god, will return to its origin, revert to its original life form, form the True God's Heart, and hide the soul within the True God's Heart."

"The Original System is equivalent to not having this transition."

He continued to listen to Qing Cang's explanation.

"This Life Core will be a certain organ of the body, such as the eyes, ears, heart, brain, etc. Different Life Core have different abilities and potentials, so the Original System strength varies and the methods they are good at are also very diverse!"

"Some methods may have an advantage in the early stages, but in the later stages, the gap in strength will be quickly widened, while others are extremely special and heaven-defying!"

Qing Cang said in a deep voice, "For example, the Second Generation Mountain Master's talent can even Time Reversal. It's not a privilege granted by the Primal Universe Will that the universe lord Reverse Space-Time, but a true ability to reverse time and slightly change the past!"

"Change the past?" Lin Yan was secretly startled.

The Lord of the Universe, the Universe's Strongest, can only Reverse Space-Time, which means he can revive those below him or bring some items from the past back to the present, but not truly change the past.

The idea that the past can be changed is terrifying, and it made Lin Yan think of his own "time travel." To this day, he finds it hard to believe that he has traveled into the story of a novel. Perhaps there are deeper secrets behind it.

"What is the truth of the matter?" Lin Yan pondered to himself. "Did I go back in time and make minor changes to the past, or did I see the future?"

Seeing Lin Yan's shocked and bewildered expression, Qing Cang explained, "Although it can Time Reversal, the scope of the impact must be small, and the weaker the cultivators involved, the better."

"Some can easily detect events happening in extremely distant places, some can teleport over extremely long distances, and some can predict the future... These are things that other cultivation systems simply cannot do; only cultivators of the Original System can do them."

Lin Yan became increasingly expectant.

What kind of talent can I awaken?

"I am about to pass on to you the 'Sky Opening Art,' a secret art perfected by my ancestors of Panwang Mountain, also known as the 'Pan Wang Sky-Opening Art,'" Qing Cang said. "Under the guidance of the Sky Opening Art, you will be able to more effectively tap into the potential of your body and soul, and ultimately awaken your strongest talent!"

"But before that, I will temporarily sever the soul connection between your clones. First, there can be no disturbance during the execution of the Sky Opening Art. Second, clones are Talent Secret Method bestowed by the Primordial Universe, and they cannot cultivate my Original System. Third, this will also prevent you from revealing the Core Inheritance of my lineage."

Wow!

Before Lin Yan could react, an invisible wave descended directly.

Even with the Void True God Level Soul Supreme Treasure "Ni Yi Chao" guarding it, it had no effect whatsoever.

Although Lin Yan's clones share the same soul and will, at this moment, the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone, the Ancestor Tree clone, and the Xue Qiao Clone can no longer sense Lin Yan's true form, as if there is a thin membrane separating them.

"I hope everything goes well." In Lin Yan's divine kingdom, the Green Line Devouring Worm Clone stood on a huge leaf of the Ancestor Tree and sighed inwardly.

After the initial shock, Lin Yan quickly calmed down, and a long string of mysterious messages appeared in his mind.

Indeed, it is the Pan Wang Sky-Opening Art!

"This first step is easier the weaker you are. With your strength, it should take you quite a while," Qing Cang said. "You should try to understand it carefully first."

"Okay." Lin Yan nodded and began to comprehend the "Sky Opening Art".

He then began to try his hand at cultivation.

"Boom!"

Lin Yan sat cross-legged atop the mountain peak. Suddenly, the vast Heaven and Earth Power began to be drawn into his body. He completely relaxed his body and soul, allowing the Heaven and Earth Power to merge into his body under the influence of the "Sky Opening Art".

Without a single distracting thought, it was as if I had fallen into a deep sleep.

His soul was completely relaxed, and he couldn't even feel his body. It was somewhat like an "out-of-body experience." The distance he could sense kept expanding, and his soul perception kept expanding in all directions, as if he had merged with heaven and earth, and his senses were incredibly vast.

"Whoosh!"

It was as if a spark had suddenly ignited in the endless darkness, and the potential hidden within his body and soul was being continuously unearthed.

Time passed.

Lin Yan himself was still cultivating the Sky Opening Art atop the mountain peak, while a new storm was brewing in the Cosmic Sea.

The Cosmic Boat Inner Domain, the Flame Ice Domain.

Rumble...

A massive ship was slowly emerging from the Black Swamp. The ship was entirely black, and a large amount of black fluid was slowly dripping from its surface. The ship was constantly emerging, causing the Black Swamp to churn and tremble.

The ancient Tomb Ship has been brought to light once again!
