Chapter 617: Chapter 592: Identity Exposed
"This plan, I think it’s feasible. Based on my understanding of Tang Feng, he will indeed go to the rescue. But there’s one issue here, this Tang Feng has one foot in the True One State, and his strength is excessively strong. Who among us can stop him?"
Flame Emperor said.
He had lingering fears from his past battle with Tang Feng.
"Leave Tang Feng to me."
At that moment, someone spoke up.
This person was enveloped in a pure white glow, like the embodiment of light itself.
He was a powerful member of the Light Clan and the strongest beneath the True One of the Light Clan, Sheng Mingyu.
Moreover, Sheng Mingyu’s strength was not limited to this.
On the Origin Continent, there were a dozen True One forces and dozens of Pseudo-Zhenyi Forces. While the strong at the third step of creation were sparse, the total number, when all these forces were combined, still exceeded a hundred.
More than ten thousand years ago, before the Dragon Alliance had entered the Origin Continent, someone had ranked these mighty beings of the third step of creation.
Sheng Mingyu was among the top ten.
One of the top ten strongest beneath the True One.
Seeing Sheng Mingyu volunteering, the others were overjoyed.
"With Lord Sheng taking action, there’s no need to worry about Tang Feng."
Blood Rule Canglong said with a clap and a laugh.
But the Flame Emperor still harbored worries and said, "Not that I underestimate Brother Sheng’s ability, but that Tang Feng is truly formidable. I’m just afraid that Brother Sheng alone may not suffice."
"Flame Emperor, you must have been frightened by the Dragon Alliance to be so cautious," another strong being at the third step of creation from the Light Clan sneered.
"I’m simply being prudent for the sake of certainty," the Flame Emperor said.
"Indeed, Tang Feng is extremely strong. I’ve fought with him as well. To be on the safe side, it would be better to add one more person to the effort," the Three-Eyed Tiger Emperor also said.
"Let’s do this: when the time comes, I’ll accompany Brother Sheng, and we’ll take Tang Feng’s head. Dragon Emperor City will be up to the rest of you," a strong being from the Da Qi Dynasty said.
"Good, then it’s settled. Let’s discuss the details," Blood Rule Canglong said.
...
Da Wu, in the Practice Room.
Silk-thin strands of the mysteries of creation enveloped Lu Yan, intertwining with the Tao One Law.
After two hundred years of cultivation, Lu Yan’s mastery over the mysteries of creation had reached an extremely profound level.
While the cultivation environment of the Origin Continent was gradually weakening, it did not affect Lu Yan much.
He was very close to the Creator Realm, just a step away.
"It seems that in no need of a hundred years, at most only fifty years are required for me to break through," Lu Yan thought to himself.
Just then, Lu Yan suddenly opened his eyes, which were incredibly sharp.
He felt the energy of heaven and earth rapidly changing, crazily converging towards the sky’s vault, then transforming into a gigantic palm that struck down towards Da Wu Imperial City.
Blocking out the sun and with a terrifying pressure, countless people felt as if they were about to suffocate.
If this palm were to fall, Da Wu Imperial City would be completely erased from existence.
"Creator Realm," Lu Yan thought, and without any hesitation, he soared into the sky, breaking through the roof, and transformed into a peerless divine blade, slashing at the giant hand above.
Boom!
The giant hand exploded instantly, and the palm quickly retracted, with drops of fresh blood spilling across the sky’s vault.
"Who dares to attack the Dragon Alliance! Show yourself!"
Lu Yan slashed through the air, sending a massive blade light that covered a hundred miles in an instant, cutting towards a certain part of the void.
The void tore open, continually twisting as a figure emerged.
The Light Clan!
Lu Yan’s eyes turned cold.
The one who had just sneak-attacked was a member of the Light Clan.
This Light Clan member, a middle-aged man, had a trace of shock on his face. It seemed he had not expected that Lu Yan, who was in the Tao Realm, could be so formidable.
He let out a low shout, emitting boundless light from his entire body, transforming into a rapidly spinning light wheel, trying to block the blade light from Lu Yan.
Boom!
An earth-shattering roar erupted, as the overwhelming strength of the Creator Realm fully unleashed, indeed terrifying, and managed to block Lu Yan’s attack.
"Boy, with your Tao Realm cultivation, to possess such battle strength is unforgivable. You must not be allowed to live. Kill!"
The Creator Realm member of the Light Clan coldly shouted, swinging both hands. Two more light wheels condensed and spun towards Lu Yan at high speed.
"Tao One."
Lu Yan murmured, and with a thought, the Daoyi Lingyu rapidly spread, engulfing the Creator Realm of the Light Clan.
The two light wheels, once enveloped by the domain, trembled incessantly, sinking like in a quagmire, with their speed plummeting.
"What is this... domain? It’s so terrifying; it can even affect the attack of the Creator Realm," the Light Clan Creator Realm exclaimed in disbelief.
Whoosh!
Lu Yan, surrounded by the Tao One Law, turned into a blade with his body, slashing through space and cutting down his opponent.
As he burst out, his soul gleamed, executing the Soul Heaven Calming Chaos Skill to transform into a soul battle blade, slashing toward the opponent’s brow.
The being from the Creator Realm was extremely powerful, mastering the power of creation, and had laid down multiple defenses on the surface of its body. Even a soul attack could not be taken lightly and would be blocked.
Therefore, when Lu Yan’s soul battle blade cleaved down, the Light Clan of the Creator Realm wasn’t worried, believing it could be blocked.
But when Lu Yan’s soul battle blade struck him, his face changed.
For Lu Yan’s soul battle blade had directly broken through the defenses on the surface of his body, invading the sea of his consciousness, and struck his Primordial Spirit.
Even a being of the Creator Realm couldn’t completely block Lu Yan’s soul attack.
The Light Clan’s Creator Realm being felt a tearing pain emanating from its soul, its spirit became dazed, and naturally, its strength started to weaken.
Spurt!
The blade light flashed, and the Light Clan Creator Realm being’s body was cleaved in two.
Even the Primordial Spirit was split apart.
However, a powerhouse from the Creator Realm had an immense life force. Even so, it was not yet dead. The two halves of the Primordial Spirit, along with the cleaved body, retreated in frenzy.
"Heaven... split!" Lu Yan swung his palms, unleashing a startling blade light.
Just as the Light Clan Creator Realm was about to be swept into the blade light and shredded to pieces, the void cracked open, and a scaly hand reached out, grasping Lu Yan’s blade light, then with a squeeze, it collapsed with a puff.
Roar!
A gigantic head emerged from the void, opening its gaping maw and biting down towards Lu Yan.
"Creator Step Two."
Lu Yan’s pupils constricted sharply.
A being of the second step of creation was much stronger than one of the first step, on an entirely different level.
He could suppress and even kill those of the first step, but he was by no means a match for the second step.
"Desolate Ancient Seven Extermination Blade."
Lu Yan dared not hide the slightest bit, summoning the Supreme Treasure, and chopping it down on the gaping maw.
The power of the Supreme Treasure was astonishingly fearsome, extremely sharp, and with a ’puchi’, a gash tens of miles long was cut into the gaping maw, from which blood poured.
The massive head roared and retracted.
Meanwhile, the Desolate Ancient Seven Extermination Blade emitted heavy vibrations, with the formidable force pushing Lu Yan to stagger backward repeatedly.
The space rift widened, and an enormous creature emerged.
This was a huge beast, crocodile-like in form, but standing erect in The sky’s Vault, with two huge front claws, incredibly sharp, and a thick tail that could split open space with a casual swing.
An overwhelming presence surged toward him.
"As expected, it’s a being of the second step of creation, and moreover, from the Immortal Clan."
Lu Yan’s heart sank slightly.
The Immortal Clan and the Light Clan’s Creator Realm beings attacked abruptly—could it be that they had joined forces to annihilate the Dragon Alliance while Lu Ming was away?
Regardless, today, this deadly calamity must be faced.
As Lu Yan was sizing up his opponent, the opponent was also scrutinizing him, unable to hide the shock and incredulity in their eyes.
"Only Tao Realm? How is this possible? How can a being of the Tao Realm possess such terrifying combat strength?"
The Light Clan powerhouse exclaimed incredulously.
"Such combat strength, not even the Fourth Element Initial Body compares to it. In the entire world, at the peak of the Tao Realm, only two people possess such strength. One is Yuan Tiandao, but he cannot be here; thus, the other must be Zhang Wei."
"This person must be Zhang Wei from the boundless starry sky."
The Immortal Clan creature akin to a crocodile spoke, its eyes burning with intensity, already guessing Lu Yan’s identity.
"With a Supreme Treasure, correct, this person is Zhang Wei, that’s the reward from the boundless starry sky."
The young Light Clansman also spoke up.
"I understand now. That Zhang Wei was clearly one of the Dragon Alliance. Damn it, the Dragon Alliance colluded with the boundless starry sky, leading to our defeat. The Dragon Alliance must be destroyed."
The Immortal Clan powerhouse roared furiously, with a terrifying killing intent spreading through the sky.
"I had intended to comprehend through time and achieve a breakthrough when the time was natural, but it seems that can’t be realized now. Why must you force me?"
Lu Yan’s gaze sharpened suddenly, becoming incredibly firm.
His soul shone brilliantly, as his Spiritual Sense extended between heaven and earth, connecting with the mysteries of creation, and then abruptly, he drew those mysteries into his soul.
The mysteries of creation throughout heaven and earth, like a flood bursting through a dam, flowed clearly and entered Lu Yan’s Primordial Spirit, making direct contact with his soul.
Right, Lu Yan planned to take the risk of merging his soul with the mysteries of creation, to break through to the Creator Realm as swiftly as possible.
Had there been no crisis, he wouldn’t have taken such a risk, as he could have broken through just by following a regular process in fifty years’ time.
But now, he had to take the risk.
Although he didn’t wish to take a risk, that didn’t mean it was necessarily dangerous.
With the strength of his soul, coupled with the protection of the Tao One Law, he was confident that he could make it through.
Boom, boom, boom...
As the mysteries of creation entered his body, they thundered like roaring thunder, stirring violently within Lu Yan’s soul.
This was extremely dangerous; a single misstep could lead to the destruction of the soul.
It was equivalent to constantly walking on the edge of death.
But for that very reason, it further unleashed Lu Yan’s potential, with his mind highly focused and his eyes filled with intricate patterns—the Tao Soul Pupil was pushed to the limit.
The profound intricacies of the mysteries of creation were laid bare before him.
The intricacies of creation that Lu Yan had almost comprehended were, in an instant, fully grasped by him.
Tao One Law and the laws of creation interwove within Lu Yan’s body, transforming into an obscure radiance.
This nebulous glow was undergoing rapid metamorphosis, evolving toward a complete world.
In the instant that Lu Yan comprehended the mysteries of creation, it signified that he had indeed stepped into the Creator Realm.
