Chapter 718: Entering Pure Sun
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A million miles above the main star of Dongyan, a small planet was revolving slowly. Luo Yunyang was sitting in a lotus position on the minor planet. His faint air of tranquility and calmness resembled a Buddha that bore no sorrow or worry.
Luo Yunyang, whose eyes were shut, sighed softly. His gaze carried a trace of abstruseness as he gazed at the void.
It had been 100 days since Lu Bei had come across him. In Luo Yunyang’s opinion, Lu Bei was lucky to have encountered him. Luo Yunyang had blessed Lu Bei with opportunities. However, whether Lu Bei would amount to something would depend entirely on his efforts.
The stuff that Luo Yunyang had to deal with in his body was more important than Lu Bei.
Many people believed that the God-Slaying Demon Sword, which could kill a Supremacy easily, was a supreme weapon. Everyone thought that the mysterious sword had disappeared completely after Jueluo Supremacy’s death.
Only Luo Yunyang knew that the sword that had disappeared into the void had only been the physical body of the sword. The spirit of the God-Slaying Demon Sword, which was also the sword spirit that devoured the God-Slaying Demon Sword, had entered his body.
Or rather, it had entered his consciousness.
Luo Yunyang had not paid much attention to that initially. He had thought that he would only need to train in seclusion for a while to resolve the pressure that the God-Slaying Demon Sword was applying on him.
However, things weren’t as simple as Luo Yunyang had thought.
In the beginning, the sword spirit had been turned into ashes when Luo Yunyang had executed the Shattering Heavens to deal with it.
However, Luo Yunyang had not felt reassured. Hence, he had executed various techniques to bombard the sword spirit. Only after completing all this did Luo Yunyang start to feel that everything was safe.
Unfortunately, he had never expected that the sword spirit, which seemed to have disappeared, would still linger stubbornly in his consciousness after a month.
It had returned twice as powerful as before.
After half a month of careful research, Luo Yunyang continued to adopt the strongest means of suppression.
Because of his previous experience, Luo Yunyang decided to be much more ruthless with his execution.
However, Luo Yunyang’s seemingly flawless suppression was once again proven useless. After a month, the black sword spirit of the God-Slaying Demon Sword returned more powerful than before.
Third try, fourth try, fifth try…
Thanks to this repeated destruction, Luo Yunyang also started to develop a profound understanding of the sword spirit. However, with each attempt, the sword spirit also got increasingly more powerful than before.
Luo Yunyang nearly fainted during his most recent attempt.
Although feeling dizzy for a short time had done nothing to Luo Yunyang’s cultivation base, this was a bad omen.
Many thoughts were buzzing in Luo Yunyang’s mind. Although he actually had a way to completely eliminate the sword spirit this time, the price he would have to pay was too hefty to shoulder.
The main reason the sword spirit was able to return perpetually to Luo Yunyang’s consciousness was because of the Chaotic Four-Origin Beast and the Heavenly Venerate True Body.
The God-Slaying Demon Sword seemed to possess an incredibly unique ability that made it difficult to destroy it once it attached itself to something.
The Chaotic Four-Origin Beast clone and the Heavenly Venerate True Body were stained with the aura of the God-Slaying Demon Sword. The reason the Chaotic Four-Origin Beast clone was stained by the aura of the God-Slaying Demon Sword was because Jueluo Supremacy had managed to destroy the Primeval Underworld Monarch’s Bloody Sea Clone with the sword. However, even so, it still affected the Chaotic Four-Origin Beast clone.
The Heavenly Venerate True Body had been the one to kill Jueluo Supremacy with the God-Slaying Demon Sword.
Luo Yunyang would not have to worry about the God-Slaying Demon Sword if he could forsake the two great powers he had. However, abandoning his two most powerful means would reduce his combat abilities by 90%.
Luo Yunyang would just be an above-average Celestial Domain-Grade martialist without the assistance of those two means.
Although there would be no issues while dealing with ordinary Universe-Grade martialists, he would face huge problems if he were to face a Saint.
Therefore, Luo Yunyang could not give up the two bodies. He could only find a solution that did not include that option.
Luo Yunyang believed that Ninth-Level Heavenly Venerates and figures greater than those in the Mysterious Sky Great Cosmos would definitely have ways of helping him solve this tricky situation. However, he did not dare to take any risks with such high-level existences.
He knew that there was a great possibility that he and the God-Slaying Demon Sword might become part of an Almighty’s collection in the end.
After completing the seal on the sword spirit, Luo Yunyang made the decision to enter the Pure Sun Great Cosmos to find a way to suppress the sword spirit.
His repeated analysis of the sword spirit had led him to discover that the God-Slaying Demon Sword might come from a place called Pure Sun.
Although Pure Sun and the Pure Sun Great Cosmos might not be the same place, Luo Yunyang still decided to enter it.
His first reason for doing so was because the Pure Sun Great Cosmos ranked much higher than the Mysterious Sky Great Cosmos. According to his estimations, the things that appeared in the Mysterious Sky Great Cosmos should appear in the Pure Sun Great Cosmos as well.
The second reason, which was the most important one, was that Luo Yunyang had more enemies in the Mysterious Sky Great Cosmos despite already establishing a foundation for himself.
Luo Yunyang would not have been very concerned about those enemies if his Heavenly Venerate True Body had been working fine. However, now that his Heavenly Venerate True Body and the Chaotic Four-Origin clone were acting up, the possibility of him getting injured while being surrounded by equal opponents was very big.
The Pure Sun place, where the God-Slaying Demon Sword came from, was also part of the reason. After making his decision, Luo Yunyang immediately contacted Lu Qubing, who was in charge of the Human Tribe’s affairs now. Lu Qubing’s cultivation base had improved in a similar way that Luo Yunyang’s had in the Mysterious Sky Great Cosmos.
In fact, Luo Yunyang did not have to do anything when the Human Tribe faced issues now. His biggest role was to intimidate the four great factions.
Lu Qubing and the others had gotten used to Luo Yunyang training in seclusion and hence did not comment. Lu Qubing had also made the most rigorous safety arrangements for his mother, sister and Yunxi.
After completing all this, Luo Yunyang went ahead and took a mission to the Pure Sun Great Cosmos through the small silvery tower.
He had to obtain the feather of the Divine Five Fowl!
According to the explanation of the small silvery tower, a huge reward would be available upon the completion of the mission. Of course, there wouldn’t be a severe penalty if the mission was not completed. The duration of this mission was 100 years.
Luo Yunyang did not really pay attention to the mission as he entered the Pure Sun Great Cosmos with the help of the small silvery tower.
He had made a lot of preparations before entering the Pure Sun Great Cosmos because of his previous experience in the Mysterious Sky Great Cosmos. He was even prepared to change his physical form.
However, after entering the Pure Sun Great Cosmos, Luo Yunyang discovered that the ruler of this Cosmos was actually a human!
The Milky Way’s Human Tribe had a miserable time in the small Divine Union. If it had not been for Luo Yunyang, it would have taken them many years to become a second-grade tribe.
However, the people that ruled the Pure Sun Great Cosmos were actually humans. Luo Yunyang found this discovery rather unexpected.
He knew that the Human Tribe had once been very powerful after receiving the small silver tower-shaped training facility. However, after seeing the broken, tattered silver tower and the lowly status of the Milky Way’s Human Tribe, Luo Yunyang thought that the Human Tribe must have gone through a calamity or a disaster.
He had not expected to find such a place while looking for a solution to the sword spirit in his own body.
What was the origin of the ruling Human Tribe in the Pure Sun Great Cosmos? Were they the descendants of those humans or were they…
While Luo Yunyang was glad that the rulers of the Pure Sun Great Cosmos were humans, he wouldn’t get ahead of himself and view them as relatives.
There was no way of knowing a man’s heart. Two families might not even recognize one another after years of separation, let alone two Human Tribes from two different Cosmos.
More importantly, the Sky Books in the Milky Way’s Human Tribe documented the various conflicts that had existed among the Human Tribe before. Besides, the Pure Sun Great Cosmos was so much bigger than the Mysterious Sky Great Cosmos.
Ten years was enough to turn a teenager into a young man.
Ten years was also enough to allow Luo Yunyang to become an inner disciple of a third-class sect in the Pure Sun Great Cosmos called the Glazed Titan Sect.
The sect master of the Glazed Titan Sect, Yue Liuli, was a Universe-Grade elite. It was precisely because of her that the Glazed Titan Sect was able to possess a mountainous range that stretched for 100,000 miles.
However, after joining the Glazed Titan Sect, Luo Yunyang discovered that the reason the Glazed Titan Sect was able to maintain a strong foothold in the Pure Sun Great Cosmos wasn’t because of Yue Liuli, but because the Glazed Titan Sect was a subsidiary sect of one of the great sects of the Pure Sun Great Cosmos, the Three Era Supreme Sect.
It was rumored that the Three Era Supreme Sect had three supreme techniques and one would become a Ninth-Level Heavenly Venerate existence after successfully cultivating one of the three supreme techniques.
If one was able to combine the three supreme techniques, they would break through the Heavenly Venerate cultivation base and become an all-ruling supreme Almighty.
“Junior Brother, although your Senior Brother doesn’t like to reprimand you, you should remain realistic and not aim too high in your cultivation. What’s the use of aiming so high? You’re just wasting your time. The Pure Glass Flame Technique isn’t something ordinary people like us can cultivate.”
An honest-looking middle-aged man was trying to persuade Luo Yunyang. “Listen to my advice and you’ll live well. If you go the wrong way when you start, stopping is as good as moving forward.”
“Go and seek advice from the Elder. Let him alter your cultivation technique and, who knows, maybe you’ll advance your current cultivation base!”
