The Imperial Palace, the prison.
Wind swept up the sand, filling the view with murky yellow.
The prison formed of black light held that radiance of nurturing earth firmly suppressed, yet strands of its mysteries still escaped, empowering the young man in the Black Robe.
He opened his eyes. A heart-stopping trace of black had already seeped into his yellow pupils. Empowered by golden nature, his last divine ability was approaching perfection at tremendous speed.
Dry yang-
A trace of doubt arose in Xu Fayan's heart.
By rights, this Dao had yet to be proven, but in certain respects, it already behaved as though it had been. It even possessed cultivation methods for five divine abilities.
Someone has probably already proven its core Great Dao. The Golden Crow... is merely filling in what remains.
After a moment's thought, he arrived at a guess.
Ancient Void.
It was probably this Devil Ancestor's arrangements that allowed the unproven Dao of "dry yang" to respond, and even enabled the Golden Crow to pass down its cultivation methods. Although these divine abilities were currently a mixture of "Bing fire," "Baleful intent," and "Greater Yang," they already bore a hint of perfection.
The seal script faintly responded. Clear qi circulated through his consciousness sea, allowing him to see everything in the Great Nether Wastes Wilds, including Evil Land's methods.
True Lord Abundant Years' golden nature?
It was an entirely different golden nature, radiant with immortal qi and nourishing all things. It showed little of the aura of nether evil or monsters, and was descending into the Pure Land.
Through Xu Ming's battle with Evil Land, he caught another glimpse of the blazing root of greed buried within Evil Land's body, and gained a measure of understanding.
