A Brush Commands Rivers and Mountains, Suppressing Divine Powers
Whoosh whoosh~~~
A strong north wind blew, and two dragons took turns in the sky, bringing a touch of gentle coolness. Before long, a light drizzle began to fall.
Ran Lian, Fu Yong, Shi Jin, and the others felt a slight chill on their faces. Their hearts skipped a beat, and when they looked up, they saw a seven-colored rainbow stretching across the sky, coming from the northern horizon and heading towards the southern horizon.
After the rainbow, the scenery changes constantly, People's Prestige awe and possessing a powerful, awe-inspiring force.
Boom!
Thunder descended from the sky, piercing the heavens in an instant, merging with the column of air, and the rumbling thunder echoed in all directions.
The herdsmen, horses, wild animals, and vegetation on the Grasslands seemed startled by the thunder, and a strange feeling arose and spread.
Ran Lian and the others, who were closest to them, felt a stirring in their hearts. Various insights began to brew, their consciousness was filled with a lot of information, their chests were filled with a sense of pride, and they had an urge to sing out loud!
On the opposite side, the radiance formed by the Law Treasure Cultivation Method trembled, its light dimming as if suppressed from a distance by thunder and lightning. After trembling, the rays of light swayed and struggled to rise, as if suppressed by some force!
"Oh no! What's going on?"
The cultivators, led by Ding Chunzi, all had drastic changes in expression, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably. They sensed a destructive power in the lightning, as well as signs of transformation, as if their own realm could undergo a fundamental change after being cleansed by the lightning.
"Heavenly Tribulation? Could it be that Qiu Yan has triggered Heavenly Tribulation? Is he about to undergo tribulation?" The weathered man's face turned ashen. He was stunned when he saw the endless lightning rolling in the sky, which even shattered the clouds. Fear arose within him.
"It's not Heavenly Tribulation, but it's even more powerful than Heavenly Tribulation. Cultivators strive to transcend the mortal realm and enter sainthood. The heavenly Heavenly Tribulation they experience are manifestations of Human Path Thunder. Isn't the lightning in the sky right now the Human Path Thunder?" Ding Chunzi looked at the lightning in the sky, his chest heaving, his expression shifting uncertainly.
"What are we to do? It's bad enough that Qiu Yan has summoned Dragon Qi, but he's even attracted Heavenly Tribulation lightning. If this goes wrong and our Fortune gets tainted, how can we withstand the lightning strike? Even a cultivator at the peak of the Fourth Realm might not be able to withstand it. Even if our Fortune isn't tainted, since Qiu Yan summoned them, he can unleash lightning with a single thought and attack us. How can we possibly be his enemy?" The weathered man said, his hand Method Formula slipping, and the seventy-two bamboo swords flying in mid-air trembled. They showed signs of losing control, and the sword formation was about to dissipate.
"Prison-Dragon Guest, don't panic, panicking is useless." Ding Chunzi, however, remained calm. "Things have come to this, we can only grit our teeth and go for it. If I'm not mistaken, the reason this Human Path Thunder manifested is not because it was controlled by Qiu Yan, but because it was responding to something he did! So, we still have a chance. As long as we break Qiu Yan's formation, all of this will naturally dissipate."
"A response?" The weathered man known as "Prison-Dragon Guest" changed his expression, looking back into the pillar of energy. Before him stood Qiu Yan, hovering in mid-air, a pen in his hand, touching a sheet of white paper. The jet-black ink imprinted on it rippled with strange energy, emanating invisible waves that spread outwards from him, across the grass, through the soil, and even beneath the feet of these cultivators!
If it weren't for the auspicious Fortune Canopy, the ripples would likely have been much stronger, and the extent of their impact would have been truly unpredictable.
"Could it be due to his actions?" The Prison-Dragon Guest's thoughts stirred, and his fear subsided slightly. "Previously, Senior, you used pills, formations, and Cultivation Method to strengthen the Fortune of the Tulang Tribe, causing it to decline after reaching its peak. You also cleverly used the Karma and Karmic Sin of the Slave Army to perform a blood sacrifice. Karma, the karmic dust would have broken Qiu Yan's Military Momentum. Then, by combining our Fortune, you transformed it into a blanket and gained the upper hand. When Qiu Yan saw that he was no match, he suddenly turned the tide and attracted the Dragon Qi. Could it not have been due to his own power?"
"Didn't you notice that Qiu Yan is currently condensing and nurturing his inner insights, letting them flow from the tip of his brush?" Ding Chunzi's expression was also unpleasant, but he had already calmed down by forcefully circulating his inner True Qi. "According to my perception, this person may be... writing down some classic texts!"
"A book? A classic? Didn't he already finish writing it?" Prison-Dragon Guest looked confused at first, then his eyelids twitched. "You mean, he's going to write another one? A second classic? This person..."
The two communicated telepathically, exchanging many words in a short time. But as soon as they finished speaking, a voice suddenly resonated in their minds—
"You two are indeed insightful. You have seen through my changes. This is a good thing. It's always good to have some understanding before you start cultivating in that book. Very well, I would like to invite you two to comprehend it together!"
The voice was extraordinary, startling both of them. Upon closer inspection, they both changed color and recognized Qiu Yan's voice.
Not only the two of them, but many cultivators were also in the same boat; they had clearly heard something!
"You want us to comprehend this together?" Ding Chunzi quickly recovered from her surprise. "To cultivate in books? What a boastful tone! Are you going to seal away all these fellow practitioners?"
His words resounded like a bell, spreading far and wide, calming the astonishment in everyone's hearts and having a calming effect.
"Not bad." As another voice rose in his mind, it was Qiu Yan's response, shattering his sense of security in an instant. "You cultivators should eliminate distracting thoughts and focus on enlightenment. Even if the world changes drastically and Fortune reverse, and you are to enter the world, you should still adhere to your own path. But as you see it now, you are showing contempt for the Human Path. Since that's the case, this second book can teach you what the Human Path."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two dragons hovered in mid-air, head to tail, and the column of air immediately began to rotate, bursting out with a strong suction force!
In the blink of an eye, the pillar of energy transformed into a whirlwind, within which Qiu Yan's figure became increasingly clear. A pure aura emanated from his body, rising and piercing through the pillar of energy and the whirlwind. The clouds formed by the thoughts entrusted to them from Eight Directions in the sky churned rapidly, with lightning flashing through them, radiating an immense and earth-shattering pressure that made evil spirits retreat and prevented the emergence of extraordinary beings!
A mighty and unstoppable force!
"Not good!"
Ding Chunzi felt a jolt in his mind and body, as if he was about to be sucked into the whirlwind of energy. His Divine Soul trembled rapidly, his Divine Ability powers faded, and his Heart Fire throbbed as if being whipped repeatedly. Even his mind seemed on the verge of collapse!
"Everyone, hold fast to your thoughts and minds, or you will face utter destruction! There's no escaping now. How arrogant Qiu Yan is to declare that he will seal us away! We cannot let him have his way! The only option now is to go all in and fight to the bitter end!"
Another telepathic message was sent. Ding Chunzi knew the situation was critical. Before he could finish speaking, his face turned crimson, and his aura surged. His swaying mind, body, and Divine Soul all stabilized. Then he opened his mouth and spat out a stream of blood with a faint glow, which shot out and flew straight away!
Hard work!
He has activated a method that depletes one's life force and soul, stimulating the potential within his body!
Seeing this, the Prison-Dragon Guest hesitated for a moment, but then his mind became increasingly confused, and the body uncontrollably rose into the air. He then realized the danger.
"So be it! Even if my cultivation regresses, it's better than being sealed away!"
Thinking this, he gritted his teeth, and his fingers snapped off. Blood gushed out and transformed into a blood dragon in mid-air, within which a Horned Dragon's soul could be faintly seen. Then, it soared into the sky!
This is also a way to inspire dedication and effort.
In the blink of an eye, the two people's Dao Heart essences soared into the sky and merged into the gourd and sword formation in the sky. The gourd and sword formation were originally swaying, like a small boat in a storm, but after merging with the blood essences, their momentum immediately surged, they stabilized again, and released their Divine Ability aura, which also Fortune Canopy.
However, the Fortune Canopy was not stable. It was being pulled by the whirlwind of the energy column and was about to fall apart. But at this moment, streams of Dao Heart and energy flew up and merged into the brilliance of the Cultivation Method and Law Treasure. They connected with each other and actually stabilized the Fortune Canopy again!
However, the other cultivators were also determined, and each of them poured their heart and soul into their work, fighting with all their might!
Boom!
With a tremor, the Fortune Canopy a complete transformation!
The light distorted, creating spatial cracks, and the surrounding air was instantly pulverized!
Then, the Fortune Canopy rotated and rushed towards Qiu Yan, who was in the Qi Pillar!
This pounce was truly powerful; wherever it passed, the grass and trees crumbled, the soil and gravel shattered, and the air along its path dissipated, creating a vacuum!
"Hahaha! Qiu Yan, you didn't expect this, did you? Your forceful actions have backfired, strengthening our resolve, unifying our thoughts, and unleashing an even more formidable power! This Fortune Canopy, condensed from everyone's hard work, Law Treasure, and Cultivation Method, has already surpassed the Third Realm level, and may even surpass the peak of the Fourth Realm! Although you have activated Dragon Qi and lightning, this is merely external force. While powerful, it has a flaw, and that flaw is... you!"
Seeing this, Ding Chunzi spurred the bedding and sped off, heading straight for Qiu Yan!
But Qiu Yan remained calm in the face of danger. He looked up and his eyes shot out two beams of light that seemed to be real. Ding Chunzi's eyes stung, and he had to close them. Then he felt a sense of foreboding!
"A vast land, a single scroll of ancient texts; countless people, a single pioneering spirit! Your Divine Ability may be astonishing, but how can they compare to this land, this nation, this overwhelming People's Wishes? Break!"
As he spoke, Qiu Yan swung his arm, and the insights he had been cultivating in his heart poured out onto the paper, transforming into mountains and rivers. With a flick of his wrist, the rivers and mountains flew out, and instantly a dark mass descended from the sky, pressing down on the Fortune Canopy.
Zzzzt!
The sound was like tearing silk, and the prayer mat shattered!
Puff! Puff! Puff!
Ding Chunzi, Prison-Dragon Guest, and the other cultivators were all shocked, spitting out blood, and many of them exploded and their souls scattered!
