Book of Holy Demons

Lin Yan was taken aback.

She ran away with him...

Judging from Qing Cang's tone, it didn't seem to have much anger or frustration, but rather a hint of "sorrow," which Lin Yan hadn't expected.

"You should have some understanding of the Panwang Mountain lineage you've studied over the years," Qing Cang explained. "In Ancient Civilization, some incredibly Super Existence would go to great lengths to craft a 'secret treasure' when choosing a suitable successor for their proudest skills."

"This secret technique contains a spirit."

"Those who can refine secret treasures are all Super Existence from Ancient Civilization. The 'secret techniques' that are worthy of their refinement are extremely difficult to cultivate if the conditions are met."

"The secret technique has a spirit and will choose a true master. If other powerful people try to force this secret technique with their strength, they will only fail. Moreover... as long as this secret technique treasure has not recognized a master, even a powerful person like our ancestor would find it very difficult to destroy it."

"As for our Panwang Mountain lineage ... I personally select the inheritors, and the 'Mountain Master Token' guarantees that the secret technique information will not be leaked, so there is naturally no need to refine a secret technique treasure. However, the 'Xuan Yuan Technique' has a special origin. It is a unique skill passed down by that invincible being, and it is obtained by using the 'Secret Art Spirit'."

Lin Yan nodded slightly.

Weapons possess spirits, just like the "source" of the Chaos Golden Wings; the world also possesses spirits, just like the "Qing Cang" of this Heavenly Realm Stone; and secret techniques also possess spirits.

However, the fusion of secret techniques into a single spirit is extremely demanding; on the Origin Continent, only beings at the God King Level or higher can achieve it.

"After the fall of Panwang Mountain, in this Endless Samsara Era, only the spirit of the 'Xuan Yuan Technique' has been able to communicate with me. I was quite relaxed about it, which is why it managed to escape." Qing Cang somewhat awkwardly.

They must take responsibility for this.

This is Defying heaven Ultimate Skill that could drive even Super Existence like God-Kings crazy! It's just a pity that it's impossible to cultivate. Panwang tried to get his geniuses to try, but they all failed. Only the sixth-generation mountain lord came closest to success.

"Xuan Yuan Technique, Xuan Yuan Technique..." Lin Yan murmured to himself.

He knew little about the "Xuan Yuan Technique," but faced with this situation, he couldn't help but think of the "Lie Yuan Art" mentioned in the original story!

This is a super- Will Secret Technique left behind by the supreme being "Yuan," which requires Will Manifestation before one can begin cultivating it.

The ultimate goal of Mountain Master in creating the Earth lineage was to cultivate a powerful individual capable of mastering the "Lie Yuan Art"! Luo Feng later inherited this unique skill in the Jin Zhi World and successfully mastered it during the World Beast Cataclysm.

Although Lin Yan wasn't exactly confident, he naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity to learn about such secret techniques.

"Qing Cang, do you know the title and name of the last powerful figure to enter the Xuanli Divine Altar?" he asked. "How many Reincarnation Era have passed since then? Perhaps when I return to the Cosmic Sea, I will still have the opportunity to find this secret."

"He calls himself 'Feng Yi'. As for the time, it's not that far off. According to the timeline of your Cosmic Sea, it's probably more than two Reincarnation Era in the past."

"Although his talent is far inferior to yours, it is still quite good." Qing Cang sighed. "He is unlikely to be an unknown person, and there is even a possibility that Transcend Reincarnation."

"Two multi- Reincarnation Era?" Lin Yan was taken aback. "So it really was related to him..."

When he first heard about the "Xuan Yuan Technique," he naturally thought of a certain being and assumed it was just a coincidence, but it turned out to be him.

Xuan Yuan!

This is the Universe's Strongest during the First Reincarnation Era, who loved adventure and exploration.

The three Core Land the Three great forbidden zones are places that even the Universe's Strongest dare not venture into, and only dare to explore familiar areas. But Xuan Yuan is different. He has a strong adventurous spirit. It is said that he possesses an Ultimate Supreme Treasure Palace, so he dares to venture into some forbidden zones that can be called "nightmares".

He ultimately perished while exploring one of the Three great forbidden zones of the Cosmic Sea, "Qingfeng Realm".

But what impressed Lin Yan most about this Universe's Strongest was not this, but the Qingfeng Realm Remnant Map that he took out during the battle with the Master Yuan Ao was "the Xuan Yuan Remnant"!

It's the map that directly led to the demise of the Great Axe Founder in the original story!

Lin Yan wasn't sure if the Qingfeng Realm Remnant Map was a genuine "Xuan Yuan Remnant" that had been partially modified, or if it was merely using the name of this powerful figure. However, this matter undoubtedly gave him some clues.

"Xuan Yuan must be the name he chose for this supreme martial art."

"He perished deep within the Qingfeng Realm. With the strength of the Universe's Strongest being and the life-saving capabilities of the Ultimate Supreme Treasure Palace, even in the Core Land, there might be many places that could trap him, but it wouldn't be easy for him to perish," Lin Yan pondered to himself. "Could it be that he was exploring the Dim Land?"

The Dim Land is an extremely terrifying area within the core region of the Qingfeng Realm; it is a prison of despair from which no one has ever escaped.

Most importantly, this is the lair of the Boundary Beast!

Xuan Yuan really enters the Dim Land, then it's truly like throwing a meat bun to a dog—there's no going back.

"Am I supposed to go into the Dim Land to find this 'Xuan Yuan Technique'?" Lin Yan shook his head. "Let's wait until another day. Maybe it won't be the Dim Land after all."

"Once I've finished dealing with my current matters, I'll have the Green Line Devouring Worm clone explore the Three great forbidden zones of the Cosmic Sea. I'll mainly rely on the system's information and opportunities," Lin Yan thought to himself. "Besides this 'Xuan Yuan Technique,' I also need to find the Blood Sea Plate that my teacher lost."

The Mu Xing Country Lord once encountered the Lost Calamity in "Liuzhong Mountain," one of the Three great forbidden zones, and was unable to determine his location before his demise. Without any clues, Lin Yan had no way to search for him.

Now that he has broken through to the level of the Lord of the Universe and has also comprehended the first volume of the Burning Divine Power Secret Technique "Emperor Burn," the strength of the Green Line Devouring Worm clone has greatly improved, making it possible to slowly search for it by relying on the System Opportunity Function.

However, it will probably take a long time.

Lin Yan stopped thinking about it and turned his attention back to the treasure mountains in the void before him.

"Duo Bao Tian".

He couldn't help but hold his breath.

The shimmering light on that treasure mountain was as if hundreds or thousands of the Universe's Strongest were Self-destruct- destructing; its overwhelming power shocked him deeply.

Lin Yan had long suspected that Panwang Mountain, as a native force of the Origin Continent, must have an amazing foundation and accumulated countless treasures, but he never expected that it would have such a glorious past.

"There are 108 treasure mountains here, accumulated over countless years by the powerful figures of Panwang Mountain!"

"The most abundant resources are rare and precious materials, such as Materials for Refining Supreme Treasures, treasures for restoring divine bodies, treasures for enhancing Life Gene, and so on. Any cultivator who wants to become powerful cannot do without various resources, and this is especially true for my Original System."

"Lin Yan, when you succeeded to the position of Mountain Lord, I said that all cultivation resources of the Mountain Lord standard could be supplied... You may think it's no big deal, but that idea is completely wrong."

"The Universe Rule System has very low resource requirements," Qing Cang said solemnly. "However, the Original System ... to enhance the power of 'innate talent,' it needs to continuously absorb precious treasures from the outside world and, with the assistance of inheritance, constantly modify and improve itself."

"Only with exceptional innate talent, coupled with a complete inheritance and various cultivation resources, can a truly powerful cultivator of the Original System be cultivated!"

"Especially the 'Eye of Dharma Annihilation' and 'Thousand Eyes Inheritance' that you cultivate are extremely advanced inheritances, and their requirements for various rare treasures are also extremely high! Although you are only at the Void God Realm, the various rare treasures you have absorbed are incredibly precious. Even True Gods or even stronger beings who Beyond True God would find it a pipe dream to collect them!"

"It's difficult for me to fully explain the value of these 108 treasure mountains to you within the Cosmic Sea, but I can put it this way—"

"If you can truly grow to the level of the mountain lords of past generations, the price you have to pay can even be comparable to the Master Weapon that the most Peak Existence Ancient Civilization painstakingly forged!" Qing Cang looked at Lin Yan solemnly, "Remember, I'm talking about the most powerful and terrifying Master Weapon of Ancient Civilization, not ordinary divine weapons at this level."

Lin Yan was stunned.

He truly lacked an understanding of the prices on the Origin Continent; under the cover of the Primal Universe Will, many things were simply impossible to observe.

However, he could roughly understand what Qing Cang was saying.

At a level comparable to that of Saint Existence, the treasures he absorbed were worth as much as King of Gods level Master Weapon!

King of Gods level Master Weapon?

Just as Lin Yan possesses various treasures, the God King naturally has even more treasures. However, ordinary treasures are only for use; the treasures that are truly qualified to be the Master Weapon are the most top-tier ones.

Examples include Luo Feng's Star Tower and the Jin Wang Palace of the Jin Zhi God King.

He knew that the Original System did have extremely high resource requirements, but he didn't expect them to be this high. However... this also shows that if he really reached that level, his strength would definitely be extraordinary!

"Look there," Qing Cang suddenly pointed in a direction.

Lin Yan followed the gaze and looked over there.

On that precious mountain stood a majestic ancient ship, its hull adorned with runes resembling dragons, snakes, birds, and phoenixes, radiating endless brilliance.

Around the ancient ship, emerald green waves naturally floated, flowing through time and space, possessing the ability to freeze space, causing the void to completely stagnate.

When Lin Yan saw the ancient ship, he immediately felt his own insignificance, and a strong shock from the deepest part of his heart surged up.

"This is the treasure left behind by our ancestor when he killed a Peak Existence... It is the Master Weapon I mentioned. Even in Ancient Civilization, it would be one of the most top-tier and terrifying treasures."

Qing Cang proudly declared, "This is the foundation of my Panwang Mountain... Even if you reach the level of our ancestors in the future, Panwang Mountain can still afford such a price!"

Lin Yan couldn't help but hold his breath.

"I saw the treasure, but unfortunately I can't take it." He shook his head inwardly. "This is the King of Gods Master Weapon!"

"Even if King of Gods Yuan Embryo grows to its peak, it will still be far inferior."

Lin Yan couldn't help but yearn for it, but according to the Mountain Rules of Panwang Mountain, even if he were the mountain lord, he couldn't use the treasures here at will.

"Let's nurture our natal auxiliary weapon first." He struggled to look away and gazed at Qing Cang.

Watching any further would be too stimulating.

I wish I could just take this ancient ship with me!

"Have you decided which one you want to refine?" Qing Cang asked.

A personal auxiliary weapon is an important part of the Original System of cultivation.

Generally speaking, the natives of the Origin Continent directly use some Strange Wood and unique metals before reaching the True God level. After reaching the True God level, rare objects are no longer of much help to them, and they have to rely on their innate auxiliary weapons.

This natal auxiliary weapon was not forged, but rather nurtured by absorbing rare treasures through a specific method, and continuously grew stronger during the cultivation process.

Lin Yan vaguely guessed that the so-called "Yuan Embryo" was made by imitating this natal auxiliary weapon. However, the precious materials required to make the Yuan Embryo were too outrageous, and only the most outstanding genius disciples of the major forces could obtain them.

The precious materials required for Life Weapon are acquired gradually.

The drawback is... since it's my destiny, it can only produce one.

The book "The Eye of Dharma Annihilation" records the methods for creating various Life Weapon. Different Life Weapon have different focuses, require different materials, and have different powers.

For example, the "Blade of Heavenly Punishment" is a purely offensive Life Weapon; its creation is itself a divine punishment!

With the Golden Eye on Forehead open, it condenses into an extreme blade of light, slashing directly at the enemy for a fatal blow that is extremely difficult to withstand.

Alternatively, there's the "Nine Ghost Painting," a type of Life Weapon similar to Domain-type weapon. It possesses powerful domain binding capabilities, restricting enemies and making it more suitable for group attacks.

However, these are all cost-effective options. Lin Yan is wealthy and doesn't need to consider cost-effectiveness.

"I choose the 'Book of Holy Demons'," Lin Yan replied.

"Alright." Qing Cang was not surprised by this result. Among the three best Life Weapon in "The Eye of Dharma Annihilation", only "The Book of Holy Demons" focuses on both material and spiritual aspects, which can give full play to Lin Yan's strengths.

Whew! Whew!

A large number of rare treasures flew directly from the treasure mountain. Some were crystals that faintly emitted strange power, some were metals that flowed like liquid, some were Body Material of strange beasts... and so on.

Lin Yan was filled with excitement and anticipation, and immediately sat down cross-legged.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle..." One by one, rare treasures of heaven and earth were absorbed by him. Suddenly, boundless black energy surged up behind him. An ancient demon god captured Black Dragon and trampled a giant serpent. The pitch-black demonic energy gathered into boundless waves, exuding a monstrous Destruction Aura.

Rumble...

In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains trembled.

The ancient demon god exploded, turning into wisps of black smoke that merged into Lin Yan's body, eventually coalescing into a large book that was both holy and demonic. As the pages turned, it seemed as if a civilization was being conceived within it.

This Life Weapon has just taken shape and needs further nurturing before it can unleash its true power!

Whoosh!

Lin Yan suddenly stood up and looked around.

"It's time to leave."
