Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elements

The Yangxin Hall.

Emperor of Dayong paced back and forth anxiously.

Since learning that he was an uncle, he took the initiative to welcome Su Yuan into the Ancestral Temple.

He knew that his side had lost, that the Great Yong Dynasty had lost, and that they needed to bow down to that Pavilion Master Wu.

The fate of the Great Yong Dynasty rested entirely on the whim of that Pavilion Master Wu.

"His Majesty."

An Imperial Guard rushed in and knelt before Emperor of Dayong.

"Tell me quickly, what's the current situation at the Ancestral Temple?"

The Emperor of Dayong looked nervous.

"Our ancestor... Our ancestor said to cancel the warrant for Pavilion Master Wu's arrest," the Imperial Guard said in a low voice.

Emperor of Dayong remained silent after the order to "cancel the arrest warrant."

Since the emergence of the Outsider, anyone who has been on the wanted list of the Great Yong Dynasty has either been successfully captured or has been forced to live a life of hiding.

As for voluntarily canceling a warrant for the arrest of a certain Outsider? That has never happened before.

After all, from beginning to end, the Great Yong Dynasty maintained absolute dominance over that group of Outsider.

"By imperial decree, the arrest warrant for Pavilion Master Wu is hereby lifted."

Emperor of Dayong pondered for only a breath before speaking.

Times have changed. Now, that Pavilion Master Wu is inside the Royal Palace, and no one can stop him.

In such circumstances, as long as the request wasn't too unreasonable, Emperor of Dayong would naturally try his best to fulfill it.

"Also, order the army outside the city to retreat," the Imperial Guard relaying the message said again.

The Emperor of Dayong looked towards the outside of the Royal Palace and sighed inwardly at the "army outside the city."

"Pity."

If the army outside the city had not been stopped, and were now besieging the Royal Palace, the outcome against that Pavilion Master Wu would be uncertain.

But there are no ifs. The fact is that the army is still blocked outside the city, while Su Yuan has gained absolute initiative in the Royal Palace.

"Let them all leave."

The Emperor of Dayong waved his hand and said.

"Yes."

Several Imperial Guard left the Yangxin Hall to convey the orders of the Emperor of Dayong.

Outside the four main gates of the Royal Capital.

A massive army is besieging the city.

The deputy pavilion masters of Zhu She and Yang are calmly mobilizing the members of the Canglan Pavilion to defend the city.

With Su Yuan's pre-prepared defensive measures, coupled with the fearless Empire Citizen players, the millions of troops outside the Royal Capital were temporarily unable to breach the city's defenses.

"The Pavilion Master foresaw everything."

The deputy head of the Zhu She Pavilion was secretly amazed. Even if the Canglan Pavilion members had occupied the four city gates in advance, it would be extremely difficult to defend them.

Not only do we need to face the attacking army outside the city, but we also need to defend the city from within.

Caught between internal and external attacks, Canglan Pavilion simply couldn't hold out for long, not to mention the other Empire Citizen who were taking advantage of the chaos.

However, Su Yuan's city defense plan for them took into account both internal and external factors, and even made advance arrangements for the complex forces within the Royal Capital.

That's why the members of the Canglan Pavilion have held on until now.

"However, the Pavilion Master..."

The deputy head of the Zhu She looked towards the Royal Palace with a hint of worry.

He naturally learned of Su Yuan's solo intrusion into the Royal Palace and his appearance on the Red-Level Wanted Order immediately.

Although Su Yuan has not died in the Royal Palace yet and is still going deeper into the Royal Palace, the deputy head of the Zhu She Pavilion still can't help but worry.

That's the Royal Palace, the most dangerous place in the Great Yong Dynasty, with tens of thousands of Imperial Guards and Super First Grade experts. At this stage, any player who goes in is basically courting death.

The Former Pavilion Master of Canglan was able to successfully infiltrate the Royal Palace by taking advantage of a complete surprise attack and by using the methods of a late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform to take advantage of the fact that the Super First Grade cultivator deep within the Royal Palace was engaged in deep cultivation.

In fact, if Su Yuan hadn't held off the pursuers at the end of Vermilion Bird Street, it's uncertain whether the Former Pavilion Master of Canglan would have succeeded.

Just as the deputy head of the Zhu She Pavilion was pondering, his expression suddenly changed.

"Not good!"

The deputy head of the Zhu She Pavilion looked out of the city.

A massive siege engine slowly appeared, followed by a huge, black iron ball, hundreds of meters in diameter, which suddenly slammed towards the city gate.

A 100-meter diameter iron ball? Its weight alone exceeds five million tons. With the added force of siege equipment, when it crashes down, the force of the iron ball falling due to inertia will reach at least tens of millions of tons.

Tens of millions of tons of force? For Empire Citizen players whose physical attributes are locked at level 1, it's simply impossible to stop them.

Rumble.

The black iron ball crashed down, and the city gate was immediately smashed open.

"The city has fallen?"

The deputy head of the Zhu She House looked grim.

Many members of the Canglan Pavilion also looked terrified.

With millions of troops entering the city, their first target was the members of the Canglan Pavilion.

Secondly, they provided support to the Royal Palace.

The deputy pavilion master of the Zhu She and others didn't care about their own lives, since even if a player died in the game, they could spend 100,000 Canglan Coin to come back in.

However, once the city falls, the Royal Palace will receive reinforcements, causing the Pavilion Master's plans to fail, which is what the Deputy Pavilion Master of the Zhu She cannot accept.

"Not good!"

Vice Pavilion Master Yang looked at the army that was beginning to enter the city one after another through the breached city gates, his expression extremely solemn.

The elite army of the Great Yong Dynasty was all heavily armored. Even a third- or upper-third-rank expert might not be able to kill many soldiers with a full-force attack.

Just as despair was creeping onto the faces of many members of the Canglan Pavilion.

Call out!

A burst of fireworks suddenly shot from the depths of the Royal Palace into the sky, then exploded, sending down four colors of firelight.

What is that?

Before the deputy head of the Zhu She Pavilion could react and understand the significance of this smoke signal appearing deep within the Royal Palace,...

The army that was gradually entering the city suddenly fell silent.

After several dozen breaths, the army withdrew from the Royal Capital in an orderly manner.

"The army has withdrawn?"

The deputy head of the Zhu She Pavilion stared wide-eyed. "That smoke signal deep within the Royal Palace, was it an order for the army to evacuate?"

Although the conclusion was easily reached, the deputy head of the Zhu She found it increasingly unbelievable.

That's deep within the Royal Palace; why would such an order be issued?

Has Su Yuan's problem been resolved?

Or did Su Yuan single-handedly seize control of the Royal Palace situation?

"Hmm? The Pavilion Master's wanted notice has been cancelled?"

The deputy head of the Zhu She Pavilion was startled, and at the same time realized that he no longer had any location coordinates for Su Yuan.

"The Pavilion Master... is he dead? Died in the Royal Palace? Is that why he was put on the wanted list?"

"How so?"

Many members of the Canglan Pavilion also trembled in their voices.

Has the Pavilion Master's plan failed?

Even the strongest Empire Citizen player couldn't defeat the Great Yong Dynasty?

"Wrong."

At this moment, Vice Pavilion Master Yang suddenly said, "The Pavilion Master is not dead. I have the Pavilion Master's 'friend slot,' so the Pavilion Master is still alive."

In the game, players Empire Citizen can add each other as "friends" to facilitate communication.

By observing the status of a player's "friends" list, one can get a general idea of their current status.

For example, if you die in the game, your status bar will turn black.

Currently, Su Yuan's status is still "online," indicating that he is not dead.

"The Pavilion Master is not dead, and a wanted list has been issued. The army outside the city has also retreated. The Pavilion Master has taken control of the situation within the Royal Palace."

Vice Pavilion Master Yang immediately spoke up loudly.

These words were spoken.

The members of the Canglan Pavilion looked at each other, feeling both delighted and deeply shocked.

Royal Palace, Ancestral Temple.

Su Yuan only waited a short while before discovering that his wanted status had disappeared, allowing him to freely study the Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual in his hands.

"Good."

Su Yuan nodded slightly. From the moment he entered the Royal Palace, everything had been within his expectations.

"I'm being observed right now."

Su Yuan felt calm.

As for who is observing them? Naturally, it's the Game Observer within the Shattering the Void World.

Game Observer are similar to game administrators or game masters; they constantly monitor everything within the game, fix bugs, maintain balance, and so on.

At the same time.

Another dimension of the Shattering the Void World.

Many Game Observer are watching the huge screen not far away.

The scene depicts the Ancestral Temple of the Dayong Royal Palace, and all the Game Observer's gazes are focused on Su Yuan, who is standing inside the Ancestral Temple.

"Incredible."

"Inconceivable."

"Can the Starry Sky Lifeform from the Middle Realm truly unleash such formidable power in the game?"

"Wu's Combat Bonus is already close to three hundred times. If it weren't for the fluctuations in his life essence, which still place him at the mid-stage of the Starry Sky Lifeform Realm, I would think he's already a late-stage Starry Sky Lifeform cultivator."

The Game Observer were filled with amazement. The Canglan Galactic Human Empire, and even the Thirty-Six Galactic Human Empires, had countless geniuses and prodigies.

The numerous observers on the field have witnessed countless so-called geniuses and freaks.

But someone like Su Yuan? Let alone the Shattering the Void World, even among the Empire Citizen the Starry Sky Lifeform Realm Empire in other Evolution World, he would be considered a monster.

What should we do now?

An observer raised a question.

"What can we do? Just watch. This Wu achieved this entirely through his own abilities, without violating the rules of the game. We can't interfere."

"Really."

"However, judging from Wu's actions, he doesn't seem to have any intention of replacing the Great Yong Dynasty. That's good, that's good!"

The observers breathed a sigh of relief. If Su Yuan intended to replace the Great Yong Dynasty, although they couldn't directly intervene to stop him, they certainly wouldn't just stand by and watch.

This will push for deeper game mechanics to target Su Yuan, thus increasing their workload.

"The cosmic power that Wu is currently displaying consists of the cosmic powers of Yin and Yang, the Power of Five Elements metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, plus a trace of Supreme Rule power."

"I'm rather curious to see what level Wu will reach after mastering Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual."

A chubby observer's expression showed anticipation.

To become Game Observer requires at least Stellar Lifeform form. Others might not be able to see through the essence of Su Yuan's moves, but as Stellar Lifeform, one can naturally see through them with ease, discerning every detail.

"First comprehend Yin and Yang, then comprehend the Five Elements. The being behind Wu is extraordinary, truly extraordinary. Is he Saint or a Great Saint of our Human Empire?"

One observer couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

Inside the Ancestral Temple.

Through the Grey Mirror, Su Yuan naturally knew that he was being watched by a large number of Game Observer.

This is actually quite normal. After all, with Su Yuan's current strength, he can be considered a bug in the game, and a bug within the rules.

It's hard to avoid being noticed.

However, Su Yuan also knew that these Game Observer would only observe him and would not directly interfere.

He glanced at the Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual in his hand.

Su Yuan glanced at the old man standing beside him and casually said, "Go out and keep watch."

"Yes." The old man immediately turned around and walked out of the Ancestral Temple.

Wow!

The Ancestral Temple gates were closed.

Inside the Ancestral Temple, only Su Yuan remained.

"Begin to comprehend."

Su Yuan sat cross-legged and slowly opened the Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual in front of him.

During the process of comprehending Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual, the practitioner will be completely absorbed, and their perception of external dangers will be greatly reduced.

In other words, if Su Yuan were to comprehend Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual at the Ancestral Temple, the Super First Grade elder in the Royal Palace might harbor some ulterior motives.

Planning to launch a sneak attack

Su Yuan found it difficult to resist.

But Su Yuan knew the old man wouldn't do that.

Because the other party is afraid to gamble, and if they lose, the consequences would be far beyond what the elderly person could bear.

Compared to superior martial arts manuals, Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual exert a more profound influence on Su Yuan's mind and spirit.

The moment Su Yuan began to comprehend the Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual, his mind was drawn into a space that resembled the universe.

Stars twinkled in the distance.

"Those stars."

As Su Yuan looked around, each star represented a kind of cosmic power.

And the universe that Su Yuan is currently witnessing is far more than just countless.

"The Power of Five Elements."

Among the many stars, Su Yuan could clearly feel that he was most compatible with the Power of Five Elements.

After all, his understanding of the Power of Five Elements has now reached over 95%.

In addition, there are more than ten other cosmic forces, which also exude a remarkably compatible aura.

"Comprehend the Power of Five Elements!"

Without hesitation, Su Yuan immediately chose the five stars that represented the five elements.

Rumble.

In the blink of an eye, five stars plummeted toward Su Yuan.

Outside the Ancestral Temple.

The old man stood guard at the door, looking quite uneasy.

Just as Su Yuan had thought, the old man had no intention of ambushing Su Yuan at all.

The old man had no idea that Su Yuan would devote all his attention to comprehending Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual.

Who could have imagined this?

"The Shattering Grade Martial Arts Manual was left behind by the Great Ancestor. It relates to the secrets of Shattering the Void, and only Outsider can comprehend it. We, the Dayong, cannot even glean a fraction of its wisdom."

The old man sighed inwardly, and then obediently stood guard outside the Ancestral Temple.

Time passed slowly.

Three hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Inside the Ancestral Temple.

Su Yuan, who had been sitting cross-legged, silently opened his eyes.

"I see."

Deep within Su Yuan's eyes, Yin and Yang energies intertwined, and the Power of Five Elements surged, forming a subtle yet perfect cycle that continued endlessly.

The Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elements.

Compared to the individual cycles of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements.

The Great Cycle of Yin-Yang and Five Elements is incredibly stable and perfect, allowing every bit of power to be utilized and participate within the cycle.

Yin and Yang and the Five Elements?

Su Yuan raised his right hand, and seven kinds of cosmic forces, namely Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, collided at his fingertips.

Splash--

With just a slight movement of his hand, Su Yuan felt that the space around him was as thin as paper, easily torn apart.
