[Great Luo Heaven]
Time seems to have lost its measure.
Only the bluish-gray waterfall flows ceaselessly, washing over the pool and the figure sitting cross-legged in front of the stone tablet.
I don't know how much time has passed.
It may be a fleeting moment, or it may be eternity.
Qi Yun, who sat cross -Qi Yun as if he had become one with the dark stone tablet, trembled slightly with his eyelashes and finally slowly opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, deep within them.
A fleeting, ineffable, mysterious charm, seemingly containing the secrets of the beginning of creation, vanished in an instant, ancient and profound.
That was not a state of mind that he himself could possess.
Instead, it's about facing the trajectory of the Great Way for a long time.
A trace of an imprint remaining in the body Divine Soul.
Almost at the same instant his consciousness fully returned.
The [Law Technique Panel] appeared silently before his eyes, the light screen flowing, still clear.
In the place where the Law Technique name should have been displayed.
A brand new line of handwriting is slowly emerging.
[Great Luo Heaven: Automatically updating (1%)]
It's done!
Upon seeing this brief text, Qi Yun couldn't help but smile slightly, revealing a relieved yet expectant expression.
The Foundation Establishment methods recorded on the stone tablet are all-encompassing and boundless.
To fully grasp and comprehend it, and to use it to build the Dao Foundation.
According to his calculations, it would take at least four hundred years.
Four hundred years----
Even if he reincarnates and cultivates three more times, it might not be enough.
But now this [Great Luo Heaven] has been taken over by the [Law Technique Panel].
As long as it can drive automatic updates.
The [Law Technique Panel] will then deduce and construct his own unique [Great Luo] spell!
The first step in attaining enlightenment [the Great Luo].
He has successfully taken the first step!
Just as his emotions were running high and he successfully activated the panel, "Buzz!!!"
An extremely dense and unexpected aura suddenly erupted from the side!
The source of the throbbing sensation was that bluish-gray waterfall and pool formed from the pure [Innate One Qi]!
The calmly flowing [Innate One] began to surge and boil violently.
They seemed to sense the fluctuations of the [Great Luo] Dao mark, and the nascent "possibility" within Qi Yun.
No words are needed; the great truth speaks for itself.
Qi Yun slowly rose to his feet, his robe sleeves fluttering even without wind.
He ignored the prominent percentage on the screen before him, calmly turning his gaze to the restless [Innate One].
Reaching the edge of the pool, the bluish-gray water surged beneath his feet, radiating a breathtaking power of Creation. He slightly raised his head and glanced at the vast sky above, its surface dappled with the branches of the apricot grove. In his eyes, there was no longer a trace of hesitation or bewilderment.
Immediately, he took a step forward and resolutely stepped into the pool of water that was entirely formed from [Innate One].
Contrary to expectations of cold or heat, upon contact, an endless, pure, and extremely potent Innate One Qi suddenly swept over and compressed the area.
At this moment, Qi Yun's body began to radiate light.
The mystique of the [Law Technique Panel] is gradually returning!
Innate One!
Refined in an instant!
Just as Qi Yun's body completely submerged into the [Innate One Pool], triggering the newly sprouted "Great Luo" Dao trace within his body, he officially began to challenge the [Supreme Dao Foundation], which is extremely rare throughout the ages.
The entire cultivation world of the Northwest, no—it even includes the vast southern lands, and many overseas immortal islands,
Secret realms, and even the depths of some powerful sects that have been passed down from ancient times.
At the same time, it possesses an immeasurable, majestic, and powerful will that makes the entire world tremble.
Subtle sensations arose during periods of deep sleep or meditation.
"Um?"
On a suspended mountain peak shrouded in mist and where cranes soar, a calm voice, seemingly containing the sounds of the birth and death of stars, softly rang out, carrying a hint of surprise.
"Is someone else attempting to prove the [Supreme Dao Foundation]?"
This aura—is it [Great Luo]?
In the deepest level of another dark and eerie underground palace, a pair of eyes that seemed capable of devouring all light slowly opened, a hint of interest flashing in their blood-red gleam.
"Who is it? It's been years since we've seen such a daring and reckless brat."
Hehehe, interesting, truly interesting----"
Overseas, inside a magnificent palace adorned with dragon-patterned reliefs, a figure who had been languidly leaning on a jade throne straightened up slightly, with chaotic energy swirling around his fingertips, as if he were calculating something.
"First came [Creation], and now [Great Luo] is also showing unusual activity—ha, are you all planning to [the Twelve Supremes]?"
"Take them all into your pocket?"
"May Buddha have mercy----" In the West, in a Pure Land bathed in golden light and filled with the faint sound of chanting, a dignified monk lowered his eyes and the prayer beads he was slowly turning in his hand paused slightly.
"This trace—stained with desolation yet concealing boundless vitality, ambiguous and elusive—its source seems to point to that demonic cave in the northwest—"
In an instant, whether out of curiosity, indifference, malice, or simply a desire to watch the spectacle, a series of powerful thoughts, capable of overlooking all living beings and controlling the fate of billions of miles of mountains and rivers, poured forth.
Many of them even directly used their supreme Divine Ability, attempting to dispel the fog of cause and effect and trace back to the source that caused the ripples of Daoist energy.
I want to see who it is that dares to touch this forbidden territory!
Countless invisible threads of cause and effect began to tremble, and the river of fate began to ripple.
A silent battle, spanning endless territories, unfolds quietly on a level imperceptible to ordinary people.
However, just as these powerful thoughts from all directions, like tentacles reaching out from the darkness, converged in the Northwest cultivation world and extended towards the Wuji Sacred Sect, they were instantly...
"Buzz-!!!"
Wuji Sacred Sect Mountain Gate.
Suddenly, the [Great Void Mirror Heaven] shone brightly!
The endless radiance surged forth like a tangible tide.
The boundless Dao intent descended like the Milky Way from the heavens, instantly enveloping the entire Wuji Sacred Sect's mountain gate, territory, and even the river of fortune it influenced in a hazy yet indestructible barrier of light.
This radiance carried an overwhelming and domineering aura, asserting sovereignty over this place!
Meanwhile, at the very top of the Great Void Mirror Heaven, on a platform overlooking the illusory images of all the heavens and myriad worlds.
A robust man casually leaned back in what appeared to be an ordinary armchair.
His face was rugged, with features as if carved by a knife and axe.
He wasn't particularly tall, but sitting there, he naturally exuded a sense of composure and authority, as if he could support the heavens and the earth.
Beside him stood a large, black halberd with an ancient and menacing design.
The halberd's body was dark, as if it could absorb all the surrounding light.
Only at the blade's edge, a faint, chilling glint flowed, capable of cleaving through the void.
This person is none other than Guan Sihai, the current Desolate Halberd Shattering Void True Lord Guan Sihai Wuji Sacred Sect!
He didn't open his eyes, nor did he change his languid sitting posture.
Guan Sihai merely tapped the armrest with his index finger, very lightly, as if striking a war drum.
Thump!
A resounding boom, echoing clearly through the heavens and earth and reverberating deep within the minds of all True Lord -level beings attempting to probe this place, exploded violently!
Accompanied by this muffled sound, a terrifying Daoist aura, savage and domineering, filled with the meaning of "primordial chaos" and "shattering," swept out like an invisible tidal wave, centered on [Great Void Mirror Heaven].
All the extended divine thoughts, deductions, and causal investigations were mercilessly crushed!
"Snort!"
A cold snort, traversing endless distances, resounded directly in the Sea of Consciousness of certain True Lord with ulterior motives, carrying an undisguised warning and a sense of expulsion.
In an instant, all the prying eyes from the outside world retreated and withdrew as if scorched by a raging fire.
Deep within the apricot grove, the waterfall remains.
The bluish-gray air currents in the pool surged wildly into Qi Yun's body, and he was completely unaware of the silent storm that had been stirred up outside because of him.
At the top of the Great Void Mirror Heaven, Guan Sihai remained asleep with his eyes closed, as if he had merely shooed away a few annoying flies.
Only the pitch-black halberd standing beside him, faintly emanating Sha Qi, caused the void to freeze.
Beyond the Holy Sect's territory, countless eyes, hidden in the shadows, coldly gazed at the demonic land shrouded in the clear light, carrying a variety of complex emotions.
"This kid—he's really gotten the hang of it."
Just as the thoughts of many True Lord outside were blocked and blocked by Guan Sihai's domineering power.
Even though he was outside the Apricot Grove, True Person Southern Dipper clearly sensed the faint yet profound Daoist energy fluctuations emanating from the direction of the [Innate One Pool], as well as the resulting external turmoil.
Even his usually placid face couldn't hide a hint of surprise.
It can cause fluctuations in the aura of the Great Dao over such a wide area.
This demonstrates that Qi Yun's efforts were not in vain.
Rather, it truly touched the threshold of [Great Luo].
I subconsciously calculated the time with my fingers.
"Two years—it took a full two years from comprehending the stone tablet to activating the Dao Foundation." True Person Southern Dipper murmured to himself, a complex thought flashing in his cloudy eyes.
"This speed, compared to those who have attempted it throughout history, can only be considered—average."
"Of the twenty-three people ahead, a full nineteen of them exhausted their lifespans at the Qi Refining Realm, yet still failed to fully comprehend the profound mysteries of this Great Luo Foundation Establishment method."
Ultimately, he died in despair, or from a sudden outburst of inner demons.
Enlightenment through the stone tablet is the first and most brutal selection process.
It has nothing to do with combat power, but only with comprehension, temperament, and that mysterious and profound connection.
"Qi Yun —you've narrowly escaped this first hurdle, but can you continue on the road ahead?"
The mind of True Person Southern Dipper was slightly disturbed.
However, just as his thoughts were wavering and a strange light flashed in his eyes...
"Call out!"
A streak of intense, meteor-like light suddenly tore through the tranquility of the apricot grove's perimeter, landing with incredible speed. As the light faded, a figure was revealed.
The newcomer was tall, with an unnaturally reddish-brown complexion. His eyes were like two miniature golden suns, radiating a sharp light that made it impossible to look directly at him.
A faint, illusory golden halo floated behind it, radiating a scorching and powerful aura.
It was none other than the Holy Sect's current True Person — Chiyang!
He strode towards True Person Southern Dipper, but the suddenly appearing True Person Chiyang, without even bothering to bow, exclaimed urgently, "Senior Brother! Something's happened!"
It seems there's a leak in the [Innate One Qi Pool]!
"What?!"
