Chapter 516 Heavenly Puppet Sect
Chapter 516 Heavenly Puppet Sect
Xuanzi recounted his experiences wandering in that area of the void to Li Lan, and informed him of many dangers he needed to be aware of.
After listening to the story told by this senior Xuanzi, Li Lan became even more longing for that area.
Not only are there unimaginable dangers there, but there are also countless rare and precious treasures.
Li Lan heard from Senior Xuanzi that when he went there, it wasn't just to compete for those rare and precious materials, but more so to prove his own path to enlightenment.
As for the specific nature of the Great Dao, Senior Xuanzi only said that Li Lan would experience it for himself later, and he would naturally know it after he reached the God-level realm.
After Xuanzi left, Bai Ze also came to Li Lan's room.
When he learned that Li Lan would be leaving after recovering from her injuries, he showed extreme reluctance in his eyes.
When Bai Ze was by Li Lan's side, he could do whatever he wanted because he knew that Li Lan would support him.
Now that Rongguang City is facing an invasion by a powerful enemy, Bai Ze wants Li Lan to stay by his side and offer him advice.
However, Bai Ze was very mature and he knew very well that Li Lan needed to find his physical body as soon as possible and then participate in the battle for the ruins.
Therefore, Bai Ze was only saddened in his heart, but he made no attempt to persuade Li Lan to stay.
After Bai Ze left, Li Lan fell into deep thought.
Since arriving in the Four Heavens World, he had never seriously considered just how big this world really was.
He had previously encountered many enemies from the void, which seemed to be a hidden paradise.
Now that he has arrived in the spiritual plane where the Three-Eyed Clan resides, Li Lan began to ponder the layout of this world.
Although most people only acknowledge that the world is only four days long, Li Lan believes that this is not the case.
Perhaps outside the Four Heavens World, there are many spiritual planes like this one, and they may even be larger than the Four Heavens World.
The only certainty is that the Four Heavens World is where human cultivators rely for survival, and it is the only place that seems relatively safe.
Thinking of the Four Heavens World, Li Lan quickly connected it with the four supreme gods.
These four supreme gods each govern one of the four realms, absorbing the power of faith from the cultivators within those realms.
Their lives are extremely long, seemingly without end.
Of the four deities, Mahakala's Mahakala Mother is the oldest, said to have existed for tens of thousands of years.
But even though the realm of the Supreme God is the most powerful realm known to people, they still cannot live forever.
It seemed that no matter how much faith power they absorbed, they could not break through to a higher level.
This made Li Lan feel a little strange.
Is the highest level of cultivation that heaven and earth can accommodate in this world the realm of the Supreme God?
Why can't this world give birth to eternal life, existing alongside heaven and earth?
The answers to these questions can probably only be found in that chaotic void, so Li Lan felt that he couldn't miss the battle for the ancient ruins.
If he could find some clues there, it might be of great help to his future cultivation path.
However, before that, we still need to improve our own strength as soon as possible.
The Mortal Annihilation Technique he used earlier was something he comprehended after experiencing a series of battles during the Secret Realm War.
It contains three great Dao rules, which is why it can be effective across so many realms.
Li Lan's body is different from others. Even the young supreme beings of the top sects are only proficient in one major rule.
However, he has mastered the four great laws of space, time, evolution, and destruction, and has not sensed anything unusual.
Although it is unknown why those young supreme beings can only master one major rule before reaching the Divine Realm, this will undoubtedly become a huge advantage for Li Lan.
Therefore, before that ancient ruin is opened, Li Lan must make good use of this point and develop more powerful techniques that integrate multiple Great Dao rules.
Besides the mortal tribulation, Li Lan felt that he could also fuse some other techniques.
Of course, he can also incorporate those rules that he doesn't fully understand.
Although his understanding of those rules was not very deep, he could still integrate them into his magic.
After thinking all this through, Li Lan quickly entered a meditative state, severing all ties with the outside world.
This is one of the advantages of having only a soul body; it allows one to comprehend the Great Dao more quickly and enter a state of enlightenment.
In this state, Li Lan's understanding of the various great laws and rules of heaven and earth became even more profound.
Countless rules of the Great Dao surged toward him, and then he began to continuously merge and create.
With the rules of destruction in control, everything seemed to become much easier.
The rules of destruction contain powerful life energy, and combined with its own pure and vast energy, they provide the foundation for the creation of all kinds of spells.
Taking this opportunity, Li Lan quickly absorbed the various great principles of heaven and earth and began to try to integrate them together, hoping to create more powerful spells.
Time flies by in the blink of an eye.
During this time, Li Lan had been in deep cultivation, so no one had come to disturb him.
Until that morning, countless dark clouds suddenly filled the sky above Li Lan's room.
This dark cloud descended upon the area without any warning.
Upon seeing these dark clouds, the three-eyed beast clan within Glory City began to worry.
This method is extremely similar to the methods of the Shadow Demons they had seen before. Could it be that Shadow Demons have invaded Glory City?
However, soon, an aged voice reached the ears of all the three-eyed beastmen.
"Don't panic, this is a heavenly tribulation, not a trick of the Shadow Demon Clan."
It was Xuanzi's voice, and he immediately recognized the source of the dark cloud.
Upon hearing Xuanzi's voice, all the members of the Three-Eyed Beast Clan were relieved.
Since Lord Xuanzi has said so, there must be no danger whatsoever.
At this moment, in the God King's Palace, Xuanzi quietly gazed at the room shrouded in dark clouds.
That's the room where Li Lan is. It seems he's finally about to recover.
"After so many days of seclusion and enlightenment, is it finally time to emerge?"
"I never expected that my young friend Li Lan would be so talented. In such a short time, you have comprehended such a technique, which has attracted the punishment of the heavenly tribulation."
Inside the room, Li Lan suddenly opened his eyes, and a wisp of green slowly disappeared from his vision.
He looked up at the endless sky, gave a cold laugh, and then said:
"I don't have time to play with you right now, disperse!"
With a wave of his hand, Li Lan dispelled all the dark clouds overhead.
A mere heavenly tribulation is nothing special.
This tribulation was only because he had gained some enlightenment and came to this place, so its intensity was not as terrifying as before.
After Li Lan withdrew his magic, the heavenly tribulations were no longer able to lock onto him.
He had only created a prototype of the spell; the heavenly tribulation would only truly descend once he actually unleashed it.
Before this, Li Lan had no need to worry about it.
After a period of rest and recuperation, Li Lan's body finally returned to its peak condition.
Now it's time to leave this world and go to the Yellow Sand Continent to find his physical body.
Just then, Xuanzi suddenly appeared in Li Lan's room.
Upon seeing the visitor, Li Lan immediately clasped his hands in greeting and said:
"Greetings, Senior Xuanzi."
This senior had helped him a lot and told him a lot about the void, so Li Lan respected Xuanzi very much.
Xuanzi seemed to sense the change in Li Lan, and a smile of appreciation appeared in his eyes.
"Young friend Li Lan is truly remarkable. He has gained new insights in such a short time. Even I am somewhat humbled by his abilities."
Now that you've recovered, are you going to leave?
Li Lan nodded and said:
"We still need to trouble you, senior, to help us open the passage to the Yellow Sand Continent."
Xuanzi smiled faintly, waved his hand, and said:
"It's a small matter."
"If you have the opportunity, young friend Li Lan, please come to this spiritual plane again in the future."
"Perhaps by then, you will have enough strength to help my clan wipe out the Shadow Demon clan."
"Compared to the soul beasts outside, the Shadow Demon clan can provide you with a much greater amount of spiritual energy, which is quite an opportunity."
Li Lan nodded, completely convinced of this.
Hunting those soul beasts alone helped him increase his spiritual power significantly. If he could hunt those shadow demons, his spiritual power would increase rapidly.
However, those shadow demons are all very powerful, and he will need to reach the level of a god before he can fight against them.
"Senior, then I'll have to trouble you."
With Xuanzi's help, Li Lan, Su Yao, and Lin Yue'er quickly arrived at a teleportation array behind Rongguang City.
Under Xuanzi's control, the great formation started operating immediately, opening a void passage that connected to the Yellow Sand Continent of the Azure Heaven Realm.
"Young friend Li Lan, I wish you a successful journey to find your physical body and to shine brightly in that ancient ruin."
Li Lan smiled and nodded, then led Su Yao and the other person into the spatial passage.
This time, unlike when they came, the spatial passage was extremely stable, and they entered it smoothly without being forcibly sucked away.
This passage was created by the Three-Eyed Clan in order to establish contact with the Four Heavens World and purchase some of the resources their clan needed from the outside world.
However, due to the recent invasion by the Shadow Fiend, there are almost no Three-Eyed beings left who call this passage.
Several hours later, the souls of Li Lan and the other two finally passed through the spatial passage and arrived in the Four Heavens.
The moment I stepped onto solid ground, all I could see was an endless desert.
Yellow sand swirled in the air, and ahead, one could see many human cultivators searching for something in the sand.
Their location was extremely secluded, situated above a dry well.
To enter the spiritual plane where the Three-Eyed Clan resides through the passage, one must jump down into the bottomless dry well in front of them and take the spatial passage guarded by the Three-Eyed Clan.
After emerging from that spatial passage, Li Lan and his companions immediately encountered several cultivators from the Three-Eyed Clan.
They now treated Li Lan with exceptional respect, their previous suspicions gone, because they all knew he was a close friend of Lord Bai Ze.
Moreover, the Heavenly Lord seemed to value Li Lan highly, so the Three-Eyed Clan members held Li Lan in even deeper respect.
"Lord Li Lan, we have been helping you find a physical body, following the instructions of the clan elders."
"According to our investigation, your physical bodies seem to have fallen into the hands of a merchant guild called Wanbaomen."
"We are relatively weak, and it has been extremely difficult for us to gather this much information, so please forgive us, Lord Li Lan."
