Liu Yang did not care about Ou Yangwen's life or death. Even the 20,000 disciples of the academy were nothing to Liu Yang.
However, there were still Yun Lingtian, Oriental Hanrou, and the others in the mystic realm. Liu Yang could not ignore them.
Moreover, if the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree had really used the mystic realm to recover its strength, would it let Liu Yang go?
Liu Yang took Tian Que Zi's corpse into his hands and carefully sensed it. His frown eased slightly.
"It seems that the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree paid a price for sneaking into the mystic realm …"
Back in the Ominous Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree had devoured Hang Tianyu, who was a Golden Immortal. Even if it did not continue to devour others, it could at least recover to the later stages of the Heaven Immortal realm.
However, the remaining demonic aura on Tian Que Zi's body was only at the peak of the Earth Immortal realm. Liu Yang deduced that the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree must have severed its cultivation level to avoid the Heavenly Dao Academy's inspection.
Liu Yang crushed Tian Que Zi's corpse and looked into the distance, his eyes filled with killing intent.
"Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree, just you wait! This time, I will destroy your soul! "
Liu Yang did not leave to search for the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree. Instead, he sat cross-legged in the stone forest and pondered.
In the past, as the Lotus Emperor, Liu Yang did not completely destroy the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree. It was not because he could not do it, but because it was not worth it.
The Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree was a rare species. Although it had not entered the Emperor realm, its demonic soul had been baptized by the Demon Emperor and was extremely tough. Unless an Emperor was willing to use his origin energy to destroy it, it would be impossible to destroy it.
An Immortal Emperor's origin energy was extremely difficult to condense. Even a trace of it would take hundreds or thousands of years to recover.
Back then, the Lotus Emperor did not kill the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree because of this. Instead, he sealed it.
Now, Liu Yang was only at the Golden Immortal realm. He was still far from being able to condense an Immortal Emperor's origin energy.
However, the Heaven-Devouring Demonic Tree in the mystic realm was only a section of its tree roots and an incomplete demonic soul.
Even so, if Liu Yang wanted to get rid of it, he had to take a very crucial step.
The step to becoming an Immortal King!
Liu Yang could rely on the resources left behind by the Azure Thearch and the Evil God to raise his cultivation level to the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm. That was already the limit.
Before becoming an Immortal King, cultivators were still cultivating their bodies, or rather, their essence.
Essence, Qi, and Spirit were the three treasures of the human body.
Essence was Essence Qi and Essence Blood, which gave birth to blood, bones, skin, and flesh. When ordinary people ate grains, they were absorbing nutrients to maintain their blood essence.
Martial cultivators, on the other hand, simplified this process. They directly seized the energy substances in the world and refined them into their bodies to strengthen their blood essence.
The path of essence was the pinnacle of cultivation. One's essence and blood would never decline, and one's body would never be damaged. This was the Golden Body, and also the "Golden Immortal" of the martial cultivation world.
On the other hand, the cultivation of the Dao of Qi required comprehension.
The Heavens and Earth revolved, and the incessant breathing was Qi.
Comprehending the energy of the heavens and the earth was to comprehend the breathing and rhythm of the heavens and the earth. From there, one could clearly sense the 'force' of the heavens and the earth, discern the hidden and know the good and the bad, and even deduce the past and present, and peek into the future.
Those ancient powerhouses above the Immortal King Realm could predict the future and avoid tribulations. They could really be said to be existences who lived as long as the heavens and earth.
Of course, Immortal Kings were still far from reaching that level. At most, they could understand the "force" and then borrow the "force". The power they could use was no longer limited to the physical body, but the power of the heavens and earth.
Moving mountains, filling seas, destroying stars, and destroying continents was just a flip of the palm!
When one reached the Immortal Emperor Realm, one could even transform the "force" of the heavens and earth and seal it in an artifact. Liu Yang's Frigid Water Saber was sealed with the "force" of the winter cold and the river and sea. When he slashed out with the saber, he could summon the force and erupt with the power to freeze the river and sea.
As for the Dao of the Gods, it was too vast. Liu Yang had never stepped into that realm in his previous life.
Liu Yang could comprehend the Dao of the Azure Thearch and the Evil God and forcefully become an Immortal King. However, if he did that, Liu Yang could only follow their path. In the future, his achievements would also stop at the Immortal Emperor Realm.
For others, the Immortal Emperor Realm was a height that they could only look up to. Many people dreamed of it.
"Cultivation is like climbing. The essence is at the foot of the mountain, the Qi is at the waist of the mountain, and the Divine Dao is the ultimate peak!"
The Azure Thearch and the Evil God had already reached the Immortal Emperor Realm. Only the scenery of the ultimate peak could attract Liu Yang.
Of course, at present, Liu Yang still needed to reach the Immortal King Realm first.
Liu Yang entered the Mystery Realm this time for two reasons. First, he wanted to obtain a slot. Second, he wanted to make use of the environment here to integrate his cultivation and prepare to break through to the Immortal King Realm.
Liu Yang had the inheritance of two Immortal Emperors. Because of this, what he learned was too diverse. Moreover, it was all left behind by his predecessors. There was nothing of his own.
