Overlord In Cultivation

Chapter 123

The spectators here were all petrified. This was too awesome!

"It"s Su Yan! He has rushed to the Trial Field!"

"Horrible! I can feel that Su Yan now is much stronger than a few months ago!"

All were shocked at Su Yan’s staggering speed of progress in cultivation. Compared with Su Yan, Jing Yanghui and others were completely useless persons that could not withstand a single blow.

"Su Yan has gone far beyond his peers, and he is even beyond Yu Yiling!"

"What a pity! Though he has amazing potential, it is too audacious for him to declare hostilities against Warlord Zu Yan. It wouldn’t be bad that someone teaches him some lessons."

Under the gaze of all, Su Yan ventured in the Crack of Chaos!

Again in chaos, this feeling of crossing the years chilled Su Yan"s bones.

Perhaps it was because of his grasp of the rules between heaven and earth, Su Yan felt this place was much more grandiose as if it didn"t exist in the chapters of history!

The Incipient Scripture seemed to be operating autonomously under the influence of the chaos. Su Yan walked aimlessly through the chaos and vaguely saw some figures of matchless talents sitting cross-legged in the end of it. They were overlooking the changing of the time.

"I really want to know who left this Toughest Trial."

Su Yan took a deep breath. Reaching the Wasteland of Chaos, he went straight to his destination and into the Bronze Altar!

Su Yan knew how to get to the second level well and got there with ease. The Old Taoist appeared directly with his white hair hanging loose. He looked at Su Yan and nodded, "You"re really fast. Are you ready for venturing the third level?"

Su Yan nodded. He came up and said, "Senior, how difficult this third level will be?"

"Not so difficult, but also not so easy." The Old Taoist smiled and added, "The third level is nothing. You are just getting started if you pa.s.s it. Only if you pa.s.s the forth level can you have the qualification to be an overmatch in the future!"

"An overmatch!" With his fist clenched slightly, Su Yan asked, "The overmatches of the universe, how strong are they? Can they cross the universe?"

Hearing this, the Old Taoist explained out of astonishment, "Kid, you are thinking too much. Crossing the universe? How can an ordinary overmatch of the universe do that? Just like you, it"s hard for you to do that even after hundreds of years of cultivation."

"Is it so hard?" Su Yan was stunned, "Senior, may I ask how strong Zu Yan is now?"

Su Yan was inquiring about the strength of his enemy. The Old Taoist shook his head and said, "He"s not really strong. What"s up? You have a bone to pick with him? You can"t defeat him now. But to tell you the truth, although Zu Yan is a king body, he is nothing but a grain of insignificant sand among the young talents in the vast universe!"

"As insignificant as this?" Su Yan was shocked, "Are the talents in the universe so strong? Senior, are you kidding me?"

"What"s so surprising about this?" The Old Taoist rolled his eyes, "The universe is vast with countless talents. There are unbeatable talents seeking hegemony and young overlords fighting for supremacy in each generation. They are all the inheritors of every super force. A king body is nothing, not even possible to become famous in a galaxy, let alone a vast universe."

Su Yan was frightened. This gap was too wide. He asked, "How strong will one be if he makes it through level four or five?"

"Kid, you"re overthinking. At first, Level four and five are not easy. And…" The Old Taoist shook his head and continued, "There are definitely unrivaled talents in this most prosperous cultivation world. It is hard to compete with them! If you can pa.s.s level four or five, you can make a name for yourself in one galaxy. Yet it"s impossible to leave a brilliant legacy in the vast universe. Never underestimate the world!"

Su Yan was astonished as the grandeur of the universe was now beyond his imagination.

"I"ve seen some talents who are younger than you. They have a supreme fighting capacity in every act of them!" The Old Taoist laughed, "They are formidable to destroy the mountain and overturn the sea with ease. The gap between you and these people is huge."

That was a huge blow to Su Yan who just shrugged his shoulders and said, "I"d better just go for the test!"

"Remember, you don"t have much time. You have to break the prison in three months. The Trial Field won"t change the rules for any one!"

Expectations gleamed in the Old Taoist"s eyes, for he didn"t want to see Su Yan dying in the trial field.    

"What the h.e.l.l is this?"

The scene of level three was beyond Su Yan"s expectation. He was beaten into a furnace by the waving of Old Taoist"s sleeve!

"Rumbling!"

The lid of the furnace fell down.

When the furnace was closed, the whole furnace suddenly glowed dazzling with one after another rules of heaven and earth spreading out from it, which intertwined together like the divine lines, turning into a huge sky-net of rules.

This sky net suddenly fell down and bounded Su Yan!

All of Su Yan"s hair stood on end. He felt that he was going to be destroyed by the shrink of the sky net!

His body, Destiny Spring, and soul were all locked by the rules, which immobilized Su Yan in a moment!

"It’s the death test!"

When the furnace shrank, Su Yan"s face darkened. The furnace wouldn"t stop shrinking until it crushed Su Yan into pieces in the following three months!

Su Yan"s body was s.h.i.+ning as he tried to get rid of the sky net. However, no matter how strong his power was, the sky net could not be broken. The harder he tried, the more he suffered. He was almost going to crack while struggling to free himself!

"Kid, this is the rule evolved according to the Immortal-bundling Rope. Though it is the lowest power of the rules, it"s not the power that you can break free from with brute force!"

"You need to comprehend the power of the rules till you can rift the chain of rules and break open the furnace, then you can get rid of it. Remember you have only three months!"

What the Old Taoist said made Su Yan calm down soon.

He thought calmly. Gradually he forgot that he was trapped, emptying his mind.

Clearly, Su Yan felt the rules of Immortal-bundling Rope.

It was as perfect as a cosmic prison, trapping Su Yan inside!

"It’s the Immortal-bundling Rope!"

Su Yan was frightened, but also a little excited in his heart. This was the most complete rules, something that the rules on the half-awakened earth could by no means compare to!

The lowest power of the rules of the Immortal-bundling Rope was akin to a small universe!

Like a prisoner, Su Yan observed carefully the world constructed by rules with his spiritual will.

His spiritual will was emitting the power of the rules., which was what he derived from observing the world from the Source Pen. However, the rules that Su Yan had mastered now could not be compared with this prison of rules. It was like a tiny boat floating in a vast ocean, with the possibility to be smashed anytime!

Without a hint, it was like a lost target.

Time ticked away day by day. When the furnace shrank and faintly squeezed out an aura that could destroy the world, Su Yan suddenly shuddered, his face turning pale. He immersed himself deep in the prison of rules and was almost lost in it.

"What should I do?"

Su Yan suddenly clenched his fist tightly. Everything was locked. He was like a prisoner in chains, being trapped in a prison.

"How is it possible to overcome this difficulty? Everything of me is tied down by the rules of the Immortal-bundling Rope, how can I burst open the furnace?"

The crisis of death was closing in on him. With breathing turning increasingly heavy, he felt as if he was sitting there waiting to die!

"There must be a way!"

Su Yan gradually relaxed. He emptied his mind again, concentrated his mind and stayed true to his primordial spirit. He knew it clearly that grasping the rules and the divine power of the rules in the prison was the only way to break free.

"Incipient Scripture!"

Su Yan"s forehead was s.h.i.+ning as he closed his eyes. The whole world was silent, but the rules that bounded him were like thousands of swords against him, ready to tear him apart at any moment!

He meditated in serenity and slowly forgot his situation.

Gradually his own world became silent, and the sea of his consciousness darkened with his soul sitting cross-legged inside. This was the moment of his meditation; the whole world was also sparkling, making it bright and resplendent.

He was comprehending the scriptures and combing what he had learned. The Incipient Scripture was a priceless manual. Su Yan got a lot of inspiration when it came to the means of constructing implements.

The book said that the human body was also like the implement. Constructing the Life Implement was constructing one"s own body.

Su Yan thought the most important chapter of the Incipient Scripture was about the Taoist Door Realm. However, he didn"t get that chapter.

"Face comes from heart?"

Su Yan whispered. Pure light was floating over his body, making him more ethereal with an unearthly aura.

"Buzzing!"

His body radiated. This was neither the power of Su Yan"s body nor of his Destiny Spring, but the power released from his heart. At this point, Su Yan"s body was like a universe, and his heart was beating as if it was the pulse of the universe.

Traces of power of the rules were born from within. Su Yan understood that the rules could not only be activated by pure power, but also by the power of heart.

But the rules that Su Yan manifested could not be compared to that of the Immortal-bundling Rope that trapped him.

"Buzzing!"

Su Yan"s body thrived. He was struggling with his body, Destiny Spring, and soul awakening at the same time!

At this point, the rules of the Immortal-bundling Rope that trapped him were like thousands of millions of killing swords lunging straight at him. Su Yan had a feeling of being destroyed both physically and spiritually.

He comprehended in destruction. He felt that he had begun to perish with the universe of his body collapsing spontaneously!

In fact, he felt he no longer existed and was destroyed!

But his spiritual will remained. This was Su Yan"s soul, representing his fire of life and fire of soul!

"Face comes from heart!"

Su Yan was whispering again. He could regenerate after being destroyed. From death to rebirth, it was like remolding and reconstructing one"s body. Su Yan regarded his body as an implement awaking from the destruction!

His soul and body were in one. He comprehended in the destruction, realizing the lowest rules and orders of the Immortal-bundling Rope. in an attempt to create a true self.

"It"s been a month!"

The Old Taoist kept an eye on Su Yan who had stayed in the furnace for a whole month, but without much progress.

Su Yan was still sitting cross-legged in the furnace which had shrunk quite much. Su Yan immersed himself deep in meditation, in destruction as well as in grasping the rules of the Immortal-bundling Rope.

"Is it the integration of soul and body?"

The Old Taoist was then shocked as he found that Su Yan turned into a furnace with his soul as the spirit and his body the holder. At this point, Su Yan clearly felt the operating process of the Immortal-bundling Rope.

"Buzzing!"

Su Yan"s silent body became more and more thriving. As each day pa.s.sed, the rules lines brewed inside him became thicker!

The chain of rules which trapped him was clattering, making the whole prison warp, and almost couldn"t quell Su Yan"s aura.

Entire ten days had pa.s.sed, and Su Yan awoke. Fierce power of the rules erupted from his body, Destiny Spring, and soul, tearing up the rules trapping him!

"Haha!"

Su Yan laughed. He cast off the chains, which was like opening a door to rules.

He stood up as quick as lightning, rus.h.i.+ng to the furnace to open it and get out!

"Rumbling!"

Su Yan"s aura soared to an extreme. When the Furnace of Glided Body operated, his body was covered with dense lines of rules. Now he could be called as a complete miniature universe. In a moment, the power that surged out from his body made the void collapse.

Su Yan found his fight capacity had improved!

This was exactly the advantage of realizing the rules. But when Su Yan hit the furnace, he turned pale. Though the furnace was shaking, Su Yan didn"t burst it open!

"Senior, what"s going on?" Su Yan frowned.

"First of all, congratulations for breaking the rules. Now you have pa.s.sed level three." The Old Taoist"s voice rang in the furnace, "But if you can burst the furnace open, you will get a creation."

"The furnace has a world and rule of its own. It"s hard to make it with my current strength!"

Su Yan put on a worried look as the power of the rules was bound up with the heaven and earth. With the power of the rules between heaven and earth, it might be possible to open the furnace. However, locked inside without a chance to draw any external power, it was impossible!

Su Yan didn’t give up. He had used the Big Dipper Boxing but still failed to open the furnace!

He sat on the ground with his legs crossed. Time had elapsed by half, and now he had only one and a half months left.

The creation that Old Taoist called was by no means ordinary, so Su Yan didn"t want to give up so easily.

He took out the dark divine iron and entered the s.p.a.ce of heritage again with his soul!

The dark divine iron perfectly ill.u.s.trated the mightiness of Taoist Coercers, and the heritage at this point also involved the rules.

Once mastering this power, by connecting with the Source of the Earth and reviving the Power of Dragon Vein, one could frighten and kill any powerful enemies!

But it must be the third-grade Taoist Coercer. Su Yan thought he now was the second-grade Taoist Coercer, and he could master the Qi of Earth Vein to conjure up great skills for attack!

"The body is like a universe, and the Qi of Earth Vein is my Destiny Spring. Can I use the art of Taoist Coercer to open the furnace by force?"

Su Yan was immersed in the heritage, dwelling on the supreme inheritance in the dark divine iron. As each day pa.s.sed, his Destiny Spring gave out the sound of thundering waves rolling, which was like an earthly dragon bursting out from his body and soaring in the furnace!

The lines of rules that flashed over his body were revolving, turning into pieces of odd characters like Dragon, Black Tortoise, Rosefinch and so on.

When all characters gathered in his body, Su Yan"s body seemed to become a vast region, an ancient formation!

When he was fully awoken, the aura released from his body drained him of all his divine power and soared into the sky, turning into a huge dragon that hit hard on the lid of the furnace!

Boom!

The lid was suddenly burst open!

"Haha!"

Su Yan laughed and rushed up. When he was about to leave the furnace, the lid pressed down again, making Su Yan almost fall to the ground.

The Old Taoist was a little speechless. He said, "This level is the test for your mastery of the rules. It doesn"t count, young man!"

Su Yan pulled a long face, about to go ballistic. How come it didn’t count?

"That"s too discomfiting!"

Su Yan sat weakly on the ground. He had no strength left. Although he tried with all his might just now, he still failed!

"En?"

The Old Taoist was in a bit of a daze as he found the heaven and earth was changing. He bent his finger and pointed in the air, and then the furnace seemed to disappear. Su Yan also seemed to have left the trail field!

At this point, the entire earth began to quake!

All the mountains and ravines were shaking, while Bases were nearly about to collapse.

The whole earth emitted an aura that could rift the sky. This ancient life planet was awakening for the third time!

The entire earth seemed to become a matchless life seal!

This seal was like a shadow, an overlord sitting in front of the history. He sat between the heaven and earth, overlooking the pa.s.sing ages!

The whole galaxy was shaking with the aura emanated by the awakening earth!

The earth also seemed to have been endowed with life. When it awoke, the whole galaxy was darkened as if all its essence was drained to nourish the earth! The vital energy in the earth skyrocketed in an instant.

With the awakening of the most powerful seal in the earth, the aura which was born spontaneously affected this ancient life planet. In a moment, the rules of heaven and earth transformed into millions of divine lines of Tao.

"Rumbling!"

Under the influence of awakening in the earth, the second awakening of Su Yan"s blood came. He saw and heard a magnificent shadow chanting scripture in his blood.

One after another ancient characters flowed out along the river of time and came into this world, roaring in Su Yan"s blood!

Every character was as big and grand as the coordinates of the universe.

These characters were bright and thriving. Putting together, they formed a world that presented the highest Taoist achievements cramming the galaxy!
