Heaven is the place where the fetus of the plane is born.
This realm is like a newborn universe, filled with primordial chaos. Myriad laws are constantly intertwined and evolving, engulfing everything. Even a being at the supreme level who enters this place is at risk of being assimilated. This is a world that returns to nothingness.
Yao Yan sat cross-legged in the center, chaotic light diffused around his body, like a human-shaped fetus in the plane. His aura was perfectly integrated with this world. When he breathed in and out, he could actually cause this world to resonate, absorb the power of the endless void, and evolve all kinds of laws.
His chaotic body has now achieved initial success and is close to perfection as a whole. He only needs to continue to devour myriad laws to continue advancing until it reaches perfection!
By that time, Yao Yan will be above all others.
I do not know how long it has been.
Yao Yan slowly opened his eyes, and the faint chaotic light in his eyes disappeared. As his eyes completely turned into pitch black, he ended his retreat. In the past few years since entering the Great Thousand World, his strength has improved rapidly. Perhaps it was because he had been hungry for too long in the lower plane, and it was not until he ascended to the Great Thousand World that he gradually "fell". After swallowing Luo He, he felt even more full.
The Luo River, which was transformed from Luoshen, the most beautiful woman in the universe in the past, contains power and principles that are beyond compare. Even for a saint, it would be difficult to take it away and refine it, unless the remaining soul of Luoshen is willing.
But now, all of these have become Yao Yan.
"Your body should have reached the level of a saint!" A beautiful figure emerged from the chaotic realm, with a graceful and noble posture, an unparalleled appearance, and eyes like stars. She stared at Yao Yan and said slowly.
During this period of time, she has been watching Yao Yan's cultivation, and during this period she has realized Yao Yan's path. It must be said that Yao Yan's path is exaggerated and bold, and can only be described as crazy.
"Thanks to the Luo River you left behind, the principles and power contained in it saved me a lot of time." Yao Yan spoke the truth. If he had not devoured the power of the Luo River, with the progress of his chaotic body, it would have taken him decades to reach this step. He might even have to take a different approach and find some short-sighted people to devour. Otherwise, hard work alone would not be able to feed his chaotic body.
"You can absorb the power I left behind. This is your ability!" Luo Shen said softly with a smile in her beautiful eyes.
When she left Luohe, her original intention was to leave a legacy for the Luoshen clan, and also to leave some marks on the world. As the most beautiful woman in the world in the past, she did not want to disappear in the long river of history.
What she didn't expect was that the appearance of an alien like Yao Yan actually gave her the possibility of reincarnation again!
"Without your cooperation, I can't do this." Yao Yan said with a smile.
Luo Shen did not respond. After all, this matter itself was a transaction. However, now that it had come to this point, there was no need to talk about the transaction openly. She looked at Yao Yan and asked, "What are you going to do next? With your physique and the path you are taking, hard training is meaningless to you. If you want to complete your path, the resources required are too huge. The entire Tianluo Continent may not be able to provide them. Moreover, the path you are taking is too dangerous. Once you let go completely, perhaps the world may not be able to accommodate you!"
"Whether you can tolerate others or not does not depend on others, but on yourself." Yao Yan replied calmly. In his opinion, strength is everything. If others cannot tolerate you, it only means that your strength is not enough. When you are strong enough, what you should consider is whether you can tolerate the other person.
"Hehe~You are really domineering." Luo Shen understood Yao Yan's meaning and couldn't help but laugh.
"Is this what you call domineering? Why didn't you say that Tianxie Shen was domineering back then~" Yao Yan asked back. If it weren't for the Immortal Emperor sacrificing himself, and Tianxie Shen's huge appetite and active cooperation, the world would not be in its current situation.
"Let's talk about it after you reach that level." Luo Shen retorted.
Yao Yan did not comment. He pondered for a moment, his eyes flickered, and he asked softly, "You should have come into contact with the original Dharmakaya in the past. What do you think of the original Dharmakaya? Is the will within it the will of the universe or the residual consciousness of the former successor?"
In his opinion, the former was more likely. Take Mu Chen in the original novel as an example. He was almost forced into the Domination Realm by the power of the five original Dharma bodies. As for everything he had practiced before, it was more like a joke.
"I don't know... why do you ask that?" Luo Shen was stunned when she heard that, and then looked at Yao Yan with some confusion. She didn't remember that the other party had ever come into contact with the original Dharma body, so why did he seem to know a lot about the original Dharma body in his words?
"I'm just a little curious. Aren't you curious about this supreme Dharma body that can exist independently?" Yao Yan said softly.
“There’s no use being curious. The strong men who controlled the original Dharma body back then were all well-known and powerful men in the universe. If you want to study the original Dharma body, you have to get their consent.” Luo Shen said frankly.
"It seems that you don't know much." Yao Yan shook his head helplessly. He hoped to learn some secrets from Luo Shen, but it was obvious that Luo Shen knew very little, or he had no chance to know them at all.
"What do you want to do?" Luo Shen frowned slightly. She felt something bad from Yao Yan's words.
"Of the ten original Dharmakāyas back then, only five are left now. Do you think that if I practice the art of One Qi Transforming into Three Purities and use the method of splitting myself, can I control the five original Dharmakāyas at the same time and merge their powers into one?" Yao Yan looked at Luo Shen and said slowly.
"Impossible!" Luo Shen denied Yao Yan's idea without even thinking about it. The look she gave Yao Yan was filled with a bit of disbelief. What on earth was in the other person's head that he could come up with such a heaven-defying idea?
She was silent for a while before continuing, "Each original Dharma body exists independently and is extremely powerful. Even if there is no successor, the original Dharma body itself is enough to compete with a Saint-level Supreme. Moreover, the five original Dharma bodies have different properties and possess certain spiritual intelligence. It is impossible for them to be compatible. Even if your path of cultivation is extremely special, it is impossible for you to be compatible with the power of five original Dharma bodies at the same time, unless you want to explode and die!"
"I'm just putting forward a guess. Is it not possible to use One Qi to Transform into Three Pure Ones?" Yao Yan asked curiously.
"It is feasible in theory, but in reality it is seeking death. Unless the five original Dharma bodies all recognize you, are willing to cooperate, and even take the initiative to disperse their original spiritual intelligence, otherwise it is impossible to succeed!" Luo Shen frowned and said in a concentrated voice.
She didn't expect Yao Yan to have such an idea. Did he really think that the original Dharma body was just mud that he could knead at will? !
Not to mention that Yao Yan has not yet truly entered the Saint Level. Even if he has entered the Saint Level, he may not be able to do anything to the original Dharma body.
"I understand~" Yao Yan's eyes flickered slightly and he responded softly. He had a general understanding of the problem of the original Dharma body. Just as he guessed, the original Dharma body might be the manifestation of the will of the universe.
In this way, his original idea might not be impossible, and the path that Muchen could take might also be taken by him. Anyway, for the Great Thousand World, the biggest enemy now is the Evil God, not him, Yao Yan. At least at his current level, he is far from threatening the safety of the Great Thousand World... This is the case to the outside world at present.
"I hope you really know that you should never try such a dangerous idea. The intelligence of the original Dharma body is not low. You want to control five original Dharma bodies at the same time... Even the Immortal Emperor back then didn't dare to think about it!" Luo Shen warned in a deep voice. She was really worried that Yao Yan would try such a stupid thing.
She suddenly thought of a saying: There is only a fine line between genius and madness.
Now Yaoyan is like a madman!
...The Soul Gathering Continent.
The Soul Gathering Continent today is still peaceful, no different from what it used to be. Those people are still in control of the rules and operations, but secretly, this continent once controlled by the Soul Gathering Clan has been completely controlled by the underworld and has become its base camp.
In the underworld.
The Lord of Hell, who was manifested by Yao Yan's faith incarnation, was sitting high on the throne, overlooking the orderly operation of the Eighteen Layers of Hell, absorbing and exhaling vast amounts of spiritual energy and soul power. Compared to the Douqi Continent, the souls of the strong men in the Great Thousand World were obviously better, both in quality and quantity.
During this period of time, the number of members of the underworld has increased several times. The black masses of ghost soldiers are like dark clouds, crawling in the darkness, providing the Lord of the Underworld with a constant supply of power of faith.
"Too slow!" On this day, the Lord of Hell, who had been silent for a long time, slowly opened his eyes. His eyes, like the abyss, stared at the people who were practicing in the dark, and his tone was indifferent and cold.
He was very dissatisfied with the cultivation speed of Emperor Hun Tian, Xiao Xuan and others. The limitations on them had been completely released as their strength increased. In addition, they were originally energy bodies, so theoretically there was no so-called bottleneck. However, they had only just entered the level of Earth Supreme.
This speed of cultivation might be very fast in the outside world, even monstrous, but in a special place like the underworld, it is undoubtedly too slow. After all, these people's cultivation has no lack of energy and soul power.
Instead of waiting for a few people to cultivate, it is better to directly harvest a few Heavenly Supremes as Ghost Emperors. At least it is easier to use them. It is just a matter of how much it costs.
Hear the words.
Emperor Hun Tian, Xiao Xuan, Lord of Devouring, and Holy Dragon Emperor all opened their eyes, and for a moment they all felt a terrifying pressure falling on them. When they heard those cold and ruthless words, cold sweat appeared on their foreheads. It was not because their mentality was not good, but the pressure from Lord Ming was too terrifying. It had reached another dimension and was unbearable.
A single word from the other party could determine their survival.
“I will lift the restrictions on you and allow you to go out into the world and grow. If you cannot break through to the level of Heavenly Supreme within ten years, you will no longer need to exist!” The cold voice of Lord Ming echoed in the eighteen levels of hell, indifferent and cold, without the slightest emotion.
All four of them are top geniuses from the lower planes, with good talents and personalities. Now they have become ghost soldiers, without the restrictions of flesh and blood, and can devour the power of others for their own use. If they cannot reach the level of the Supreme Heaven within ten years, Yao Yan will not have the patience to wait any longer.
There are not many years left until the Great Thousand Covenant, and he doesn't have time to wait for them to grow slowly!
"Hey~"
As four beams of black light shot into the four people's brows, Ming Zun's cold words rang out again: "This is Tian Zhizun's perception... Don't let me down. This is the last chance I give you!"
"Yes!" The four of them came back to their senses and hurriedly bowed in response with a respectful expression.
After more than a decade of faith, the word loyalty has been imprinted in the soul. Unless he truly disappears into the world, he will not be able to disobey any order from the Lord of the Underworld.
After giving instructions to the four people, Lord Ming looked down.
"The underworld will be revealed from today!"
"Let the name of the underworld spread throughout the universe!"
"Let everyone know that after death, one must go to the underworld, not the suffering of reincarnation!"
……
As the indifferent voice echoed in the eighteen levels of the underworld, pairs of scarlet and cold eyes slowly opened and looked fanatically at the towering emperor's figure. Their expressions were like those of fanatical believers who were willing to do anything for the gods in their minds.
A woman in a black palace dress stood in the dark, looking at the crowd of powerful men, and couldn't help pursing her lips. She thought she knew Yao Yan very well, but now it seems that she still underestimated him. Compared with him, the former Soul Emperor seemed like a rookie.
Even now he has become Yao Yan's subordinate, and he can't find peace even after death!
Lingxi sighed in her heart. Even with her character, she was a little shaken at this moment, because what Yaoyan did was too against the will of heaven. He even turned the cycle of reincarnation upside down. He wanted to control the cycle of life and death of the world. Would such behavior really not be punished by heaven? !
She felt somewhat uneasy, but helpless. After all, she could not change that guy's decision at all.
After doing all this, the figure of Mingzun slowly disappeared, and only the towering emperor's shadow could be seen like a statue, standing between heaven and earth, like a dead object. At this moment, Mingzun had appeared beside Lingxi. His figure was exactly the same as Yaoyan, but he was wearing a black dragon robe, which made him look a little sinister.
"Aren't you worried that it will cause a great disturbance in the universe and lead to the powerful people in the universe targeting you?" Lingxi asked, looking at Yao Yan's faith clone.
"If the underworld wants to grow and develop, these will have to be faced sooner or later!" Yao Yan replied calmly. He was very patient to have waited until now. It was a pity that Emperor Hun Tian and others were not up to the task, so he could only give them some encouragement.
If a few people failed to live up to his expectations, then he would have no choice but to replace them and send them to reincarnation.
"I hope you don't play with fire and get burned." Lingxi said with some concern. Now she and Yaoyan are on the same boat, so naturally she doesn't want to see him perish in the world. Besides, the growth of the Ling Clan still depends on him.
"The fall is also the fall of the body of faith. What does it have to do with the Emperor of Heaven?" Yao Yan looked at Lingxi and asked back.
Lingxi was stunned for a moment, then she thought that the matter in the underworld was only done by Yao Yan's clone. She was a little shocked by Yao Yan's shamelessness, then she bit her lip and said, "...What about me?"
"If that day really comes, you will become the trophy of the Emperor of Heaven's killing of the Lord of the Underworld!" Yao Yan said righteously.
"..." Lingxi was shut down by this sentence. (End of this chapter)
