Desolate Heaven Sacrifice!
As soon as Yang Zhen finished speaking, both Death Shadow and Gong Sanhe nearly popped their eyes out.
The terrifying True Essence of heaven and earth around them suddenly erupted, and torrents of violent True Essence rushed toward Yang Zhen from all directions like a vast ocean, with a rumbling sound that could be heard like the tides.
"What... what happened?" Gong Sanhe stared blankly at the violent True Essence of heaven and earth erupting before him, his face filled with horror.
The Death Shadow stared wide-eyed at Gong Sanhe with a suspicious look. "What did he just say? What's the rush?"
Gong Sanhe's expression turned serious, and he said solemnly, "It seems to be telling us not to rush!"
Death Shadow suddenly understood and said with emotion, "Young people today are incredible. With such heaven-defying martial arts, they can actually mobilize the vitality of the surrounding world. It's as if they follow the rules."
Gong Sanhe also took a deep breath, looking at the violent shockwave with surprise and uncertainty, and said, "No wonder young friend Yang Decao said he was fifty percent sure; now it seems that it really is possible!"
As the two retreated to a distance, Yang Zhen's figure had already appeared in mid-air.
It's been a long time since I used the Desolate Heaven Sacrifice. Now that I've cultivated the Dragon-Elephant Prison-Shaking Body to the Fifth Dragon Elephant, I can withstand more of the heaven and earth's energy, and it's even more violent when I use it.
Only when the surrounding True Essence ceased to surge did Yang Zhen look up at the roaring sky, grin, and mutter to himself as he waved his hands, "Damn it, this Sage of Saunter only wanted to change the overall feng Sage of Saunter, no need to target me like this, right?"
Boom--!
A deafening roar resounded, and suddenly thunder roared in mid-air. Amidst howling winds, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket descended from the sky, hurtling towards Yang Zhen.
Gong Sanhe and Death Shadow's expressions changed drastically, and they exclaimed in horror, "Heavenly Lightning!"
Thunder roared, violent and ferocious, and moved at incredible speed. Before the two could react, they were already above Yang Zhen's head.
Yang Zhen laughed heartily. It was just heavenly lightning, not some colossal beast in the sky, nor some black thunderbolt. He could just smash it when it came.
As lightning surged, Yang Zhen's Great Deficiency Sword suddenly roared and slammed into the lightning with a deafening boom.
boom--!
The two collided, and a terrifying shockwave exploded outwards, scattering countless wisps of mist around them, even scattering the pink poisonous miasma into pieces.
Seeing that Yang Zhen had actually dispersed the heavenly lightning, all four of them gasped.
At that moment, Yang Zhen suddenly surged forward again, his Great Deficiency Sword hurtling towards the side of the canyon. With a loud bang, it pierced the hilt and severed the head of a dragon.
"Oh no, what is he doing?" Gong Sanhe's expression changed drastically. "The dragon's head has been severed, and the restriction will fully erupt. Once the remaining Three Lives Flower bloom, we will all die here."
The Death Shadow was startled and hurriedly said to Gong Sanhe, "Old man, don't scare me!"
"Why would I scare you? Look at the dragon's momentum on the other side!" Gong Sanhe's face flashed with a look of surprise and uncertainty, which clearly startled Yang Zhen.
Death Shadow, Ding Chun, and Wen Yuning all looked towards the other side of the canyon and saw that the Three Lives Flower were blooming all over the mountains and fields, and terrifying pink poisonous miasma was surging in from all directions.
"Quick! You all go, I'm going to rescue that brat Yang Decao!" Death Shadow said in a grim voice to Gong Sanhe.
Gong Sanhe shook his head, looking surprised, and said, "Wait, wait a minute!"
The Death Shadow followed Gong Sanhe's gaze with a suspicious look, then suddenly widened its eyes.
Yang Zhen walked step by step toward the other side of the canyon, seemingly oblivious to the blooming Three Lives Flower covering the mountains and plains. What made the four of them gasp in unison was that with each step Yang Zhen took, the terrain beneath his feet suddenly changed. Terrifying surges of earth energy, like churning waves, followed the direction Yang Zhen was walking, altering the surrounding landscape in a bizarre way.
If it was originally a dragon's momentum, now, under Yang Zhen's changes, it has gradually transformed into a tiger's momentum.
roar--!
A deafening roar resounded as Yang Zhen stomped heavily on the ground. The cliff face in mid-air instantly exploded, and a lifelike tiger shape materialized in mid-air, roaring as it charged wildly towards the half-dragon formation opposite it.
Buzz--!
Immediately afterwards, the entire canyon began to shake violently, with a deafening roar and earth-shattering changes. The surrounding rocks exploded and turned into dust, which fell into the canyon. Although the Three Lives Flower were still blooming, they no longer emitted a trace of pink poisonous miasma.
"This... this is..." Gong Sanhe stared wide-eyed in disbelief, his eyes flashing with astonishment and uncertainty.
The Death Shadow looked completely bewildered. His understanding of the Earth Treasury Technique was limited, and he clearly didn't understand what was happening.
Ding Chun and Wen Yuning, however, could sense the changes in the world. Their expressions were filled with horror as they exchanged a glance with Gong Sanhe and exclaimed in unison, " Earth Treasury Technique?"
Gong Sanhe shook his head and corrected him in a deep voice, "It's the Mountain-Moving Dao Technique!"
" Mountain-Moving Dao Technique?" Death Shadow looked at Gong Sanhe with a puzzled expression and asked, "What is the Mountain-Moving Dao Technique?"
Gong Sanhe said with admiration, "Young friend Yang Decao once received the inheritance of the Mountain-Moving Daoist in a cave on a cliff. This almost miraculous method is the legendary Mountain-Moving Dao Technique."
"Is it really Daoist magic?" Death Shadow's eyes widened in surprise.
Gong Sanhe's eyes flashed with surprise and uncertainty. "At first, I also felt that young friend Yang Decao 'Earth Treasury Technique, but such a heaven-defying method is clearly not something the Earth Treasury Technique can do."
"So what he truly possesses is Daoist magic?" Death Shadow asked again, his face filled with disbelief.
"I'm afraid so!"
"Hiss! Terrifying!"
The two looked at each other in disbelief, unaware that Yang Zhen's so-called Mountain-Moving Dao Technique was actually a complete version of the Earth Treasury Technique, far superior to the Earth Treasury Technique created by the Ancient Life Sect Ancestor who had only seen a portion of the Heavenly Book: Earth Treasury Chapter.
Gong Sanhe had no idea how miraculous the true Earth Treasury Technique was, so he thought it was impossible for it to achieve such a near- Earth Treasury Technique -defying level.
Just then, Yang Zhen suddenly took a deep breath and slammed his hands heavily onto the ground.
Rumble!
The surrounding terrain gradually leveled out, and the misty, chaotic atmosphere disappeared completely. The sky was clear, and there was even a sense of birdsong and the fragrance of flowers.
Yang Zhen has altered the Three Lives Coiled Dragon Formation of this place, using the tiger shape to disrupt this almost malevolent balance of heaven and earth, restoring the world to its original state.
In this way, the Heavenly Secret Lock was revealed.
After doing all this, Yang Zhen collapsed to the ground with a thud, muttering to himself, "Damn it, this is really going to kill me. I should have known better than to push myself so hard."
With Yang Zhen's current strength, he is simply incapable of altering the celestial phenomena and the earth's landscape. This method is merely a temporary measure; given enough time, it will eventually revert to the Three Lives Coiled Dragon Formation. As for when it will change, it's just a matter of time.
It's very possible that he'll fully recover tomorrow, or it might take him a year or two; it's none of Yang Zhen's business.
At the same time, Yang Zhen's heart gradually burned with excitement. Damn it, the Heavenly Book: Earth Treasury Chapter actually has such terrifying power. If Yang Zhen could cultivate it to the Saint Realm, he could almost move mountains and fill seas with a single stomp of his foot. That is a true means of changing the celestial phenomena and the earth's landscape.
No, I must seize the time to cultivate.
The more Yang Zhen understood about this world, the more he could sense that it held many more secrets, many of which were unknown to others.
Opening Heaven step by step was as thrilling for Yang Zhen as lifting a bride's red veil.
Seeing Yang Zhen sitting on the ground, pale-faced, Death Shadow and Gong Sanhe exclaimed in unison and rushed towards Yang Zhen in three steps.
Yang Zhen's expression changed drastically, and he turned to look in the direction of the Heavenly Secret Lock.
boom--!
A buzzing sound rang out, and the entire Heavenly Secret Lock suddenly erupted with terrifying brilliance, blotting out the sky and blinding everyone in the blink of an eye. Yang Zhen and the other four hurriedly closed their eyes, their hearts filled with horror.
