Zhang Yan sat in meditation and cultivated. In the blink of an eye, more than 20 years had passed.
With the help of the broken jade, he became more and more proficient in controlling his Origin Qi. Now, even without the Void Concealing Jade Membrane to transfer his magic power, he could still use his Origin Qi to travel through the 10,000 realms. He didn't need to worry about the powerful Qi affecting the living beings in the world.
On the other hand, the heavens and the earth within his Divine Decree grew even more stable. Just as he'd thought before, even though he carried a burden, maintaining a world at all times had similarly deepened his comprehension of the Dao Art. At this moment, it wasn't as heavy as it was at the beginning.
However, because he needed to observe the mysteries of the universe, other than preaching the Dao, he didn't interfere much with the operation of the world. He relied purely on the living beings in the Heaven Realm to protect it.
At this time, he also found something wrong.
If it was in the modern world, as long as there was spiritual opportunity, it would most likely attract the creatures of the void.
If it was the Mountain and Sea Realm, the land of the Nine Continents, or the High Sky Realm, it was a different story. This was because the Heaven Realm was either left behind by powerful beings or protected by magic treasures left behind by ancestors.
However, this was only because the creatures of the void were blocked outside. It didn't mean they didn't exist. If the Heaven Realm he created was in the modern world, it would easily attract them.
Fortunately, it was not too late to make up for it. He created many creatures of the void and allowed them to enter the world.
Those in the Heaven Realm were born with great spells. Many of their abilities were honed by fighting against the world's calamities. Later, they were enlightened by Dao, so they were all extremely powerful. When they saw enemies coming, they naturally fought back.
However, the creatures of the void were not easy to deal with. Every time they came, they would steal a large amount of spiritual opportunity. Even if they were defeated and killed, the spiritual opportunity would not be returned.
Bai Dou and the others also sensed the danger. Spiritual opportunity was what they relied on to cultivate. Without it, they could not improve themselves. If these things came a few more times, they wouldn't be able to withstand it. The key was that they couldn't fight back and could only passively resist.
Realizing this, after a discussion, everyone went to the mountain peak where the sermon was held. They burned incense and prayed, praying for Zhang Yan to bestow a way to save them.
At this time, Zhang Yan happened to be at a critical juncture in the Performance of Divine Will, and this was exactly what he wanted. Thus, his incarnation descended to the Lower Realm and preached again. This time, not only did he guide everyone in their cultivation, he also imparted the Restrictive Formation Method to resist the invasion of the Outer World, so that everyone could build it themselves.
Of course, with the abilities of these natives, it was already their limit to build a restriction that could stop Void beings. It was impossible for them to reflect the restriction and trap True Yang cultivators. As such, these places had to be arranged by the natives themselves.
However, through this matter, it was equivalent to telling them that outer space wasn't a safe place, and besides the vast universe, there were all sorts of dangers as well. It could be considered as making up for this missing link.
After he finished arranging all of this, he came down to set up the formation. However, as his cultivation improved, he unexpectedly discovered even more profundities, and a bold idea was born in his mind.
Previously, he only thought that he could reflect this part of the world into the real world when he fought with his enemies, and thus have the effect of trapping his peers. However, he also knew that this wouldn't be effective for long, and his opponents would quickly break out. However, he believed that in a battle, even if it was only for a short moment, it would be extremely useful.
However, there was a method here that could be used to form the Formation of the Heavens. It was to use the Heavens and Earth as a restriction, and the layers were interlocked like a ring, revolving around each other to create a cage.
If he could open up several Heavens in his Divine Will and arrange them according to this, then the effect would not be just a little bit when used in battle.
Right now, he only had one Heavens in his Divine Will, but if he forced it, he could also create three or four. The key was that as his understanding of dao deepened, it became easier for him to control his Yuan Qi. In fact, this number could continue to increase, and if he worked hard in this direction, it might not be impossible.
However, there wasn't much time left until Bu Xutian's restriction was lifted. If he couldn't complete it before then, it might be a waste of effort.
After thinking about it deeply, he finally made up his mind to do it.
The Connate Demons had treasures, but they didn't have many methods to defeat the enemy. If they didn't find a way to help themselves, how could they hope to win this battle? No matter how difficult it was, how could it be compared to the danger of life and death, and the danger of the Human Dao?
Although he had made up his mind, he wouldn't act recklessly. Before he did it, he first made a deduction and had a plan in mind before proceeding.
After a long time, he opened up another Heavens and Earth in his Divine Will and carefully guarded it. If anything went wrong, he would immediately withdraw and find the problem before continuing.
Time continued to pass while he was in seclusion.
Suddenly, one day, he felt his heart shake, as if he had broken free from some shackles, and he came out from his meditation.
He tried to examine it and found that in the past, it was difficult for him to circulate his Yuan Qi freely. Not only was it sluggish, but if he used a bit of force, it would stir up the Heaven's Spiritual Qi. He could release it, but he couldn't retract it. Now, although it couldn't be said that he had already reached the stage where he could do as he pleased, it was incomparably smooth. It was as if he was a chess piece on the chessboard, and he could move it wherever he wanted. Instantly, he knew that he had already stepped into the second stage.
At this stage, True Yang cultivators wouldn't have any improvement in their Yuan Qi, but there were benefits to subduing their own Yuan Qi. Originally, it was like wearing thick clothes while walking, but when it was used, there would always be some deviation from what they wanted. Now that they had gotten rid of the disease, they could be said to be unrestrained and their will was free.
As for how long it would take to reach this stage, it was actually not fixed. Some were willing to slowly grind it out, while others could do it without a long time.
From the records in the jade slip, he wasn't the one who took the shortest time. There was a senior who immediately subdued his Yuan Qi on the day he achieved True Yang. This caused many people of the same generation to praise him, which was why it was recorded in the book.
However, because of the depth of everyone's Yuan Qi, as well as the different cultivation methods, the things that they could do were different.
Zhang Yan's Yuan Qi was so strong that on the day he achieved True Yang, it had reached an unprecedented level. Even if it was that person, they wouldn't be able to subdue him immediately. Moreover, at that time, that person had many people of the same generation to learn from. He was alone and had to rely on himself to explore, so he couldn't compare so simply.
As long as they hadn't reached the rumored third stage, then there wasn't much difference between True Yang cultivators. As long as their Yuan Qi wasn't too far apart, then when they fought, it would depend more on their own methods.
He stood up from the ocean of Yuan Qi. In an instant, a huge wave of Qi swept across the sky, but it didn't disturb any living beings.
At this moment, he had an epiphany. With such an achievement, it was time for the tribe to be famous.
He looked up, and all kinds of images of the past flashed before his eyes. He thought to himself, "My cultivation method came from the Five Directions Five Elements Taixuan True Light that Senior Brother Zhou taught me. It is said that this time it came from the ancient Taixuan Sect. Although I have repeatedly deduced it, it is no longer the original. If we talk about the source, then it must have something to do with it, so it should be named 'Xuan'!"
"I became a disciple of the Qincang Sect and learned all kinds of magical powers. After that, I enjoyed the opportunity left behind by the Ancestral Master and refined the Zhou Huanyuan Jade. Just Now, I have broken through the Heavenly Gate and achieved the True Yang. As such, I should name my name 'Yuan'!"
"I will use the name 'Xuan Yuan' when I rule the tribe. It is the Xuan Yuan tribe!"
The name of this tribe was both natural and self-made. Because what he did was in accordance with nature and the heaven and earth, there was no difference between the two.
He calculated a little. From the day he started his seclusion until now, exactly 30 years had passed. There were only a few days left before he would meet up with Dan Yi.
So as his thoughts turned, he had already fallen into darkness. However, after a while, as the light bloomed, the world became clear.
Michihito Ichito walked out from the light and bowed, "Greetings, Fellow Zhang."
Zhang Yan also bowed.
Michihito Ichito looked at him and was slightly surprised. Although it was only Zhang Yan's clone, under the influence of the Qi, he could feel that it was different from before. If it was said that before, it was sharp and strong, then at this moment, it was like one, peaceful and quiet.
He had entered the sect long ago and naturally knew what it meant. He said, "It seems that you have gained something again, Fellow Daoist."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "This is mine to begin with. How did I gain it?"
Michihito Ichito also smiled. He pointed at him and then at himself and said, "Fellow Daoist, if you think that you have it, then you have it. If you think that you can't, then you don't have it. It's purely up to you and me."
Dan Yi had yet to arrive. The two of them exchanged a few pleasantries before Michihito Ichito invited him to the inner realm.
This time, they were not on the road to the state city. Instead, they arrived at a temple. There were two huge pine trees in front of the door. After walking in, they saw a Dao servant sweeping the courtyard. When he saw the two of them, he stopped and bowed with a Dao salute before moving to the side.
Michihito Ichito nodded at him and continued walking in.
Zhang Yan took a look and felt an aura that was different from the things in this world. He said, "The person who lives here seems to have some background?"
This person was not a True Yang person. He could have seen the shadow of the past and understood the details. However, this was Michihito Ichito's territory. Out of respect for the owner, he did not do that.
Michihito Ichito said, "The people here were not created by me. They relied on me to avoid the Connate demons."
Zhang Yan's eyes moved slightly. He said, "Bu Xu came from Heaven?"
Although Ancestral Master Huantong had sealed the door, that was only because the True Yang body could not come out. His incarnation and some people in the lower realm were not restricted by this.
Originally, with Qingjue Mountain guarding the place, even if these people came out, they would be dealt with or received. Now that the place was occupied by the Demon Division, it was up to them to decide how to go in and out.
Michihito Ichito said, "This person is also a demon cultivator. He was once a disciple of my Dao. However, he is different from his kind. He does not want to become enemies with me, but he cannot go against the wishes of those demons. Therefore, he ran out this time. I brought him here to hide."
Zhang Yan thought for a while and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are willing to bring this person here and even take the risk of exposing your hiding place. Could it be that there is something on this person that is worth doing this?"
Michihito Ichito smiled and said, "I can't hide it from you, Fellow Daoist. Please follow me. You will know after talking to this person."
