I'll Make Up What You Lack!
"Isn't it a bit hasty to attain enlightenment now?"
Heavenly Demon Well, above the boundless Blood Sea, Youquan frowned slightly.
He stood atop the Twelfth-Grade Blood Lotus, with Avici in his left hand and Yuantu in his right, his body surrounded by the Blood Sea and Daoist energy flowing endlessly.
Those blood-red eyes gazed into the void.
That is the direction from which Qi Yun's true will descends.
He did not refuse, nor would he refuse.
As an avatar of the true deity, he will obey whatever decision the true deity makes.
This is his essence, the meaning of his existence.
He asked the question because he was puzzled.
He had just formed his Immortal Aspect and subdued these two supreme weapons of destruction; his realm was not yet stable and his foundation was not yet solid.
Seeking enlightenment through gold at this time is indeed somewhat hasty.
There is no guarantee of success.
L
Qi Yun's voice resonated deep within his mind, calm and steady, yet carrying an undeniable decisiveness.
In the blink of an eye, images and messages flooded into Youquan's mind like a burst dam.
Above the sky, a dozen True Lord faced off, their killing intent soaring to the heavens;
That oppressive force, powerful enough to crush the void, raged wildly between heaven and earth;
The manic light burning in the eyes of the True Lord Wudao, the icy killing intent of the True Lord Qingyuan, the almost fanatical fighting spirit of the Nine Revolutions Undying True Lord, and the flickering light in the dark green eyes of the Nine Nethers Sun-Devouring True Lord;
And that line—
"Sink this Xuanhuang Home Realm!"
Youquan's blood-red eyes suddenly froze.
His lips twitched slightly, and after a long pause, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth: "Good heavens—"
"These old monsters, if they don't show up, fine, but once they do, they'll shatter the entire Xuanhuang?"
He grinned, a mixture of shock and awe.
Above the True Lord.
Those legendary beings were secretly plotting to instigate a great war that could destroy the entire Xuanhuang.
"Only if you attain enlightenment, seek the gold, and achieve the throne, shaking the All Wonders Heaven, will there be a sliver of hope to awaken the True Lord."
Qi Yun's voice rang out again, each word as firm as iron. "Otherwise, once the True Lord initiates war, it will be too late to recover what has been done—"
"The Xuanhuang is in grave danger!"
Youquan remained silent for a moment.
Then, he raised his head, and the last trace of hesitation in his blood-red eyes vanished, leaving only absolute determination.
"As Your Majesty commands, Youquan shall obey!"
He spoke loudly, his voice echoing above the Blood Sea.
There were no further words, no excuses.
Let alone the current extremely dire situation, even if the Venerable One were only acting on a whim, he would not hesitate to ask Jin Zhengdao for help.
However, "Rushing to acquire gold is not a sure thing."
He lowered his eyes slightly, looking at the Avici Yuantu in his hand, feeling the Immortal Aspect within his body that had not yet been fully stabilized, and his tone carried a hint of solemnity.
"Rest assured."
Qi Yun's voice remained calm, yet carried a reassuring steadiness: "You lack depth—"
I'll complete it for you!
The moment the words fell -
Heavenly Demon Well, above the eternally murky sky, a pair of eyes suddenly appeared.
Those eyes, a vast expanse of azure gold, seemed to be able to see through all the changes in the universe and control the Lunzhuan of the Great Dao.
It hovered silently above the Blood Sea, looking down at the boundless Blood Sea below, and at the crimson figure standing atop the Twelfth-Grade Blood Lotus.
[See Through All Changes]!
Qi Yun pushed this Supreme Divine Ability to its limit!
"Buzz--!!!"
An indescribable tremor suddenly spread from those blue-gold eyes!
Wherever the tremor passed, the extremely yin and filthy aura permeating the Blood Sea seemed to be parted by an invisible hand, revealing the most essential and fundamental Dao patterns beneath!
Youquan looked up at those eyes, at the countless numbers and Daoist principles reflected within them, which were flowing wildly, and his heart trembled violently.
That is----
That is the fundamental vein of the Great Dao of the Blood Sea!
That was the true nature of the Great Dao, which he had never fully glimpsed despite his lifelong efforts in cultivating the Blood God Scripture!
At this moment, under the divine power of [See Through All Changes], those profound truths that were originally hidden in the the Unseen and elusive were being peeled away, analyzed, and revealed little by little by those blue-gold eyes, as if unraveling a cocoon!
One after another, endless insights into the Great Dao poured forth from those eyes like a flood bursting its banks, continuously flowing into Youquan's heart!
That is the essence of the Blood Sea, the True Intention of slaughter, the ultimate evolution of utmost yin and filth, and the ultimate sublimation after the fusion of Yin and Yang and yang evils!
The aura surrounding Youquan, which was being watched by the [Blood Sea Dao Fruit], grew increasingly dense and solid!
The aura was so intense that it almost materialized, condensing behind him into a faint, indistinct phantom of the Blood Sea!
Within the illusory image, countless Blood God Son prostrated themselves, Twelfth-Grade Blood Lotus bloomed, and the Avici Yuantu resounded.
The Blood Sea Fruition Status is faintly emerging!
At the same time that the Great Dao was being frantically poured into him, his true form, which was also Qi Yun, let out a very soft groan.
Those cyan-gold eyes trembled slightly for a moment.
Forcing oneself to use "See Through All Changes" to comprehend the Great Dao that one is not familiar with, and to analyze the fundamental mysteries of the Blood Sea, which is extremely Yin and filthy.
The burden is too heavy.
The weight was so great that even with his Peak Great True Person cultivation, he found it difficult to bear.
But just as he was about to give up, he collapsed.
A warm and gentle Great Sun intent, illuminating all things, surged forth from the the Unseen!
The Great Sun Dao Intent was clear and pure, nourishing all things, like an invisible sun shining into his Purple Mansion, into his mind, and into the depths of his Divine Soul that was faintly aching from the forced deduction!
It is the Great Sun Purple Ultimate!
This being of True Lord level is helping him from afar!
"Boom-!!!"
With the blessing of this True Lord's power, Qi Yun felt a lightness all over his body, and his blue-gold eyes suddenly burst forth with a light that was even more intense and dazzling than before!
He pushed his [See Through All Changes] to its absolute limit!
The surging, boundless insights into the Great Dao of the Blood Sea, like an inverted celestial river, poured entirely into Youquan!
One path, ten paths, a hundred paths, a thousand paths—the possibilities are endless!
Heavenly Demon Well.
Above the Blood Sea.
The Youquan roars to the sky!
Within that roar, there was exhilaration, relief, the excitement of finally touching the Great Dao, and the resolute determination of being on the verge of enlightenment!
"Boom-!!!"
The Twelfth-Grade Blood Lotus beneath him suddenly erupted with a dazzling crimson light!
The light was intense and dazzling, almost eclipsing the entire Blood Sea!
The twelve lotus petals bloomed layer by layer, and on each petal emerged densely packed blood-red runes, the essence of Youquan's lifelong cultivation!
In his left hand Avici, and in his right hand Yuantu, both supreme weapons of slaughter resounding simultaneously!
The clanging sound echoed throughout the Blood Sea!
Black and white light intertwined and entwined, forming a killing world of black and white energy flowing around him. Wherever the energy passed, even the eternally turbid void was cut with cracks!
And beneath his feet—
The boundless Blood Sea began to tremble violently!
The tremors grew more and more intense, as if the entire Blood Sea was about to be overturned at that moment!
A wave of blood surged skyward, reaching a height of ten thousand feet!
Countless Blood God Son screamed, kowtowed, and went mad amidst the blood waves!
And at the very center of that Blood Sea.
The blood slowly separated into two parts.
It was as if it had been cleaved in two by an invisible hand!
The crack grew wider, deeper, and more alarming!
Deep within the crack, there was no blood, no filth, only an indescribable, all-consuming pure darkness.
And in the deepest darkness.
A glimmer of light slowly emerged.
The light was initially extremely faint, so faint as to be almost imperceptible. But the instant it appeared, the entire Blood Sea fell silent!
All the towering waves of blood froze in mid-air;
All the shrieking Blood God Son fell silent, as if trembling with fear.
Even the resounding clang of the Avici Yuantu abruptly ceased at this moment!
The light grew brighter, more intense, and more solid!
final-
An indescribable and mysterious entity suddenly emerged from the deepest crack in the Blood Sea!
That is a Fruition Status.
A [Blood Sea Fruition Status] shaped like a chicken egg, nurtured like a placenta, containing boundless Daoist wisdom!
It hovered quietly above the crack in the Blood Sea, slowly rotating.
With each rotation, countless Dao intents flowed out, merging into the entire Blood Sea, into the Twelfth-Grade Blood Lotus, into the Avici Yuantu, and into the body of Youquan!
Above the Fruition Status, there is a surging Blood Sea, a rise and fall of slaughter, the root of utmost yin and filth, and the ultimate sublimation born from the fusion of Yin and Yang and yang evils!
Youquan gazed at the Fruition Status, at the very essence that had emerged from the deepest part of the Blood Sea —the very thing he had sought for countless years—the sinister smile on his lips widened to its fullest extent.
He opened his arms.
The Avici Hell resounded, Yuantu howled.
The Twelfth-Grade Blood Lotus shone brightly, its radiance dazzling.
Beneath their feet lay an endless Blood Sea, which roared and boiled, with billions of blood waves rising to the sky as if welcoming their king!
Youquan looked up at the slowly rotating Blood Sea Fruition Status, and at the boundless Dao contained within Fruition Status.
Then he leaped!
Charge straight toward that Fruition Status, toward the final hurdle of enlightenment!
