Lu Yan carefully noted down the words of the Taiyi Palace Master, and then stepped forward, entering the Space Door. In the next mont, he arrived in an unfamiliar space.
"Such imnse pressure."
As soon as he entered this space, Lu Yan felt an overwhelming pressure assaulting him.
This pressure was a million tis stronger than outside; involuntarily, Lu Yan activated the Saint Soldier’s Foemula to resist it, which made it sowhat more bearable.
Lu Yan looked forward.
This space was vast, resembling a miniature cosmos, silent and dark in all directions, but in the center, there was a bright orb, emitting light thousands of tis more dazzling than a star.
Wisps of rosy light spread in all directions from the orb as the center.
"That is..."
Lu Yan saw what appeared to be a figure as tall as the heavens sitting cross-legged within the orb.
But in the next mont, the figure disappeared without a trace, like a burst bubble.
"Is that the imprint left by that all-powerful predecessor?"
Lu Yan guessed.
He faced the rosy light and moved closer to the orb.
The closer he got to the orb, the stronger the pressure beca.
However, with Lu Yan’s Cultivation Level, resisting it wasn’t difficult.
His body, like an unparalleled Divine Weapon, emitted a clanging sound as it broke through the pressure to move forward.
Gradually, he drew nearer and nearer to the orb.
The surrounding rosy light also grew more and more intense.
Lu Yan bathed in the rosy light, his body draped in a colorful cloak.
"In the beginning there was the heaven and earth, it should start with the Taiyi."
After Lu Yan traveled so distance, suddenly a thunderous roaring sound arrived at his ears.
The phantom inside the orb suddenly sharpened into clarity.
He felt as if the surroundings were changing, the rosy light warped, gathering into clusters, which then writhed violently, transforming into unique patterns, exuding deep Tao Rhythm.
"Is this the Tao Rhythm left by that all-powerful predecessor? Perhaps, if I comprehend it, it will be beneficial on my path to creation."
Lu Yan thought to himself and imdiately started using his Tao Soul Pupil, capturing these Tao Rhythms and earnestly delving into their mysteries.
This ditation lasted for several months.
Lu Yan stopped and continued moving forward.
The closer he got to the orb, the denser the Tao Rhythm beca.
After advancing a certain distance, Lu Yan stopped again to Cultivate.
In Cultivation, there’s no sense of years and months; in the blink of an eye, thirty years had passed since Lu Yan entered this place.
During that ti, the Taiyi Palace Master had co once and, seeing that Lu Yan was deeply imrsed in Cultivation, confidently left.
"This kind of Tao Rhythm is related to the entire life’s learning of that all-powerful predecessor from the Taiyi Palace. Perhaps, I should first Cultivate all of the various secret techniques of the Taiyi Palace and then ponder on this Tao Rhythm. The mutual verification would yield greater gains."
Lu Yan murmured softly.
Then he left this space and went to the Taiyi Palace’s scripture vault, beginning to study all sorts of secret techniques of the Taiyi Palace.
The Taiyi Palace Master did not go back on his word, and he didn’t hide the Palace’s several house-guarding techniques from Lu Yan, leaving him to comprehend them.
Now, Lu Yan had already mastered more than half of both the Zhou Tian Huan Yu Map and the Myriad Tao Map, and the number of techniques he knew was countless.
Moreover, he had created new techniques three tis; his understanding of various techniques had reached an extre.
Not to ntion the Tao Realm, even in the Creator Realm, there were few who could match him.
With the enhancent of the Tao Soul Pupil, his comprehension of various techniques accelerated to an extre.
In just two years’ ti, he had mastered all sorts of powerful techniques from the Taiyi Palace, and he had even gained a considerable level of proficiency in them.
Besides, the one thousand Tao Elixirs promised to him by the Taiyi Palace Master were also delivered to his hands.
Lu Yan originally wanted to assimilate the Tao Elixirs, attempting to break through to the Tao Sixth Layer.
But after several years and refining hundreds of Tao Elixirs, he was still unable to succeed.
Lu Yan could only temporarily give up.
Indeed, Lu Ming was right; breaking through in the Tao Realm wasn’t so easy.
Having enough resources alone wasn’t enough; a deep enough understanding of the realm was necessary, and a profound comprehension of the magic laws was required for a breakthrough.
Of course, creating a new technique was an exception to this.
Creating a new technique is a shortcut, but unfortunately, there are very few people in the world who can do it.
After mastering the Taiyi Palace’s scriptures by heart, Lu Yan once again entered the True One Realm Fallen Land to ditate with peace of mind.
As ti went by, he kept approaching the orb.
The Tao Rhythm here indeed had the sa origin as the secret techniques of the Taiyi Palace. Lu Yan pondered on it and found it quite natural, gaining a different insight.
He made rapid progress in all kinds of secret techniques from the Taiyi Palace.
In the blink of an eye, another seventy years had passed.
He had been in the Taiyi Palace for a hundred years by now.
There were less than seven hundred years left before the battle between the cosmic sky and the Origin Continent.
Clang!
One day, Lu Yan suddenly opened his eyes, and his body emitted the sound of a blade’s ring. Then, he soared into the sky, turned into a dazzling light of a blade, releasing an unstoppable force, capable of cleaving through heaven and earth.
The void was torn asunder by a crack that stretched for who knows how many miles.
Above the sky’s Vault, the Magic River appeared, and mighty forces descended upon Lu Yan.
He had successfully created a new technique, and the heavens bestowed their divine gifts.
Lu Yan’s aura began to rise, and the force of the Great Tao within his body ran wildly. When it reached a certain extent, there was a loud boom, and his aura skyrocketed, breaking through a certain bottleneck.
Tao Sixth Layer.
Lu Yan showed a hint of joy.
But the joy on his face quickly faded.
Because after his Cultivation Level had broken through to the early stage of the Tao Sixth Layer, it completely halted and stabilized.
After a short while, the divine gifts of heaven and earth concluded.
"Creating this technique was greeted with only the weakest heavenly favor, barely aiding to break through the bottleneck into the Tao Sixth Layer,"
Lu Yan whispered.
His cultivation level was already at the peak of the Tao Fifth Layer, only a hair’s breadth away from the Tao Sixth Layer.
After successfully creating the new technique, the heavenly favor barely helped him cross that hair’s breadth, a vast difference from the last ti he created the ’Dominance’ technique.
"Perhaps, it’s because this technique is too similar, too close to the Earth Withering technique; it did not gain the approval of the heavens and the earth,"
Lu Yan speculated.
For this creation of technique, he had based it on the fusion of Thunder, Fire, and Gold laws.
And the Earth Withering technique was based on the fusion of Thunder, Fire, and Wind.
Although there were variations, the changes were not significant.
To receive heavenly favor in creating a technique, one must create sothing entirely new.
So people, despite their painstaking efforts to create a technique, only manage to recreate what predecessors had already done. These would not be graced with heavenly favor.
Even if the created technique is new, if it’s too similar to those of predecessors and lacks significant variance, even when there is heavenly favor, it wouldn’t be substantial.
Lu Yan was now facing this situation.
Therefore, for so unmatched geniuses, creating a technique isn’t hard, but creating sothing completely new is trendously difficult.
"This technique, being similar to Earth Withering, doesn’t have much of a breakthrough, so it shall be nad ’Earth Annihilation,’"
Lu Yan mused internally.
Earth Withering, Earth Annihilation, both on the sa level and not differing much in power.
"My current cultivation level is at the early stage of the Tao Sixth Layer. To make a leap forward and enter the Pinnacle of the Great Tao, I need to create an entirely new and stronger technique, which requires the fusion of even more laws."
"At least, it requires the fusion of four laws, or even five."
Lu Yan pondered.
"Continue."
After stabilizing his cultivation level, Lu Yan continued to move towards the sphere of light, imrsing himself in cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, another fifty years had passed.
Lu Yan had now been there for one hundred and fifty years.
He was gradually drawing closer to the sphere of light.
"Eh, what is that?"
One day, Lu Yan saw so golden patterns around the sphere of light through the rosy rays. The patterns were like little golden dragons, encircling and moving around the sphere.
Lu Yan had never seen such golden patterns, but without prior knowledge, he could tell that they were extraordinary, emanating a mysterious aura.
These patterns were neither laws nor rules, nor profound anings.
Yet, when Lu Yan observed them with his Tao Soul Pupil, he couldn’t see through them.
It seed like they were the most fundantal things between heaven and earth.
"These golden patterns, found at the site of a True One’s demise, must be remarkable. I should capture one and have a closer look."
Lu Yan stepped forward, approaching the golden patterns.
But the closer he got, the stronger the pressure beca. Strands of rosy light crashed against Lu Yan’s body like waves.
"Five Elents Field."
Lu Yan invoked the Five Elents Field, enveloping his entire body.
With the addition of the Five Elents Field, he managed with more ease to resist the powerful pressure and step forward, drawing ever closer to the golden patterns.
However, at that mont, the golden patterns, as if alard, all rushed into the sphere of light at once.
"This..."
Lu Yan was quite disappointed.
But he was not ready to give up. Seven laws emanated from him, rging together.
At the sa ti, the power of his physical body also exploded to its maximum. He fully stimulated the Saint Soldier’s Foemula and Five Elents True Body. In addition, his powerful soul force also spread out.
He wanted to break through with this powerful soul force and capture a golden pattern.
When all aspects were stimulated to their limits, his body surface emitted a faint glow, actually repelling the rosy light that surged towards him.
Just then, one of the golden patterns, seemingly attracted by Lu Yan, proactively poked its ’head’ out of the sphere of light and, with a whoosh, flew towards Lu Yan.
Before Lu Yan could even react, it entered his right hand and coiled there.
Suddenly, a second streak of golden light flashed.
The second golden pattern rushed over and entered his left hand, settling there.
Lu Yan was startled and hurriedly retreated.
After all, he had not yet understood the function of these golden patterns, and having them ’occupy’ his body without consent could spell disaster if they were harmful.
Lu Yan retreated to a far distance and stopped, then carefully observed.
The golden patterns settled in his left and right hands, part inside his physical body, part inside his Primordial Spirit.
Lu Yan activated the power of the Tao, directing it at his hands, trying to force the golden patterns out.
But when he tried, it was to no avail, which weighed heavy on his heart.
"Eh..."
But Lu Yan soon noticed a change.
At the site where the golden patterns rested, his physical body and Primordial Spirit were quietly transforming.
Even though the process was slow, Lu Yan could clearly sense the transformation—after all, it was his own body, to which he was extrely sensitive.
His body and Primordial Spirit were getting stronger,
Moving towards a domain unknown to Lu Yan.
"Could it be that these golden patterns are the legendary True Patterns?"
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Lu Yan’s mind.
To break from the first step of becoming a creator to the second, one needs ’True Flesh Spiritualization’, which requires True Patterns.
Based on these True Patterns, as the flesh and spirit truly beco one, they undergo an earth-shattering tamorphosis, making both body and soul incredibly powerful.
Lu Yan had so understanding of the True Patterns, it was only that he hadn’t thought of it at first.
