The moment his words fell, the heavens showed no change whatsoever.
Yet Lu Yang soon sensed something was wrong. At some unknown moment, a vast, boundless scroll woven from black and white had appeared above his head out of thin air.
The scroll divided Yin from Yang; its image unfolded creation itself.
It spread across the sky, enveloping both the Heavenly Palace Lu Yang had transformed into and the twelve Water-Fire Fruit Position Stars. Then it abruptly split apart, standing opposed like Yin and Yang.
"Hmm."
This sudden development immediately drew Lu Yang's attention. As the Yin-Yang scroll separated, he discovered that the twelve Water-Fire Fruit Positions, once intimately connected to him as one, had turned illusory, as though isolated in another space, their connection severed from nothing!
"Transformation of Yin-Yang?"
This time, Lu Yang was genuinely surprised. The Buddhist body from before was one thing; after all, it had merely imitated the Dharma Body Path, and there was not much technical sophistication in that.
But this was different.
He saw it clearly. The Dharma treasure the World Honored One had brought forth this time was imitating [Yin-Yang], borrowing the profound Image of Yin and Yang's opposition and unity.
"A mere parlor trick."
The World Honored One's expression remained calm as he said lightly, "When Si Sui held sway, things were unlike they are now. Back then, even Dao Lords opened wide their doors and exchanged knowledge with fellow cultivators across the world. I merely rode the tide of the times. Dharma Bodies, dharma power, Spells, Destiny, Yin-Yang, Five Elements—I simulated each with Dharma treasures."
Before he had finished speaking, alarm bells suddenly blared in Lu Yang's heart.
The next instant, he sensed something and looked up at the sky, only to see that a Guillotine had appeared above him
