Eternal Life through Drawing Lots

Chapter 409: Chapter 400: Taiyin, Taiyang

...

Even before entering the [Burying Moon Mountain World Dream Realm Cluster], Fang Yang had learned from Sub-Venerable Han Wu that there were six Great Sage Dream Realms in total here.

They were the Golden Giant Cauldron, the Azure Phoenix, the Silver-White Ancient Lion, and the Muddy Black Battle Halberd...

Among them, the Great Sage Dream Realms suitable for him were the Golden Giant Cauldron and the Azure Phoenix.

However, out of caution, after devouring the Golden Giant Cauldron, the second Great Sage Dream Realm Fang Yang chose was not the Azure Phoenix, but the Silver-White Ancient Lion.

...

The Silver-White Ancient Lion Great Sage Dream Realm, the Ninth Layer trial.

Here, Fang Yang was surprised to discover that the original owner of this dream realm was also related to Saint Emperor Vast Sun.

At this very moment, he had transformed into the dream realm’s original owner and was about to fight a great enemy to the death.

This great enemy was a demon cultivator at the Great Sage Level. Its true form was a Heaven-Sundering Demon Butterfly of terrifying strength. With a flap of its wings, it could shatter the stars in the void and even tear apart entire Star Realms.

Admittedly, this was because the void of space, unreinforced by the great Venerables, was not as solid as the Eight Domains.

But this was still enough to demonstrate the terror of the Heaven-Sundering Demon Butterfly, an ancient Fierce Beast.

"BZZZZ~"

The void trembled violently. The demon butterfly’s body was covered in brilliant markings as it gently flapped its wings.

Transforming into a fantastical streak of light, it traversed several Star Realms in an instant. Countless beings wailed as their life force was devoured.

Its entire body glowed as it regulated its breath, yet this also triggered a cosmic resonance. An endless frenzy of energy surged toward it, causing it to burn like a star.

’The power of the Great Sage Level is truly captivating,’ Fang Yang mused internally.

’If not for the power of the Dream Emperor’s phantom, I’m afraid I would have been stopped back at the seventh layer’s trial.’

’Let alone getting to experience the power of the Great Sage Level.’

Immediately after, Fang Yang gently exhaled, instantly conjuring a silver ancient lion. Endless bolts of electricity danced beside it, brilliant and terrifying. Wreathed in a starry sea of lightning, it smashed directly forward.

...

A quarter of an hour later.

The Ancient Demon Butterfly’s eyes dimmed, losing all their divine light as it floated silently before Fang Yang.

WHOOSH. Fang Yang’s perspective pulled back, shifting to a third-person view as he watched the dream realm’s original owner act.

The dream realm’s original owner came from the Domain of Zhou and was the Primordial Ancestor of the Celestial Star Sect, named Guan Yidu.

Guan Yidu was originally a cowherd from a poor family, but he unexpectedly received guidance from Saint Emperor Vast Sun.

At that time, Saint Emperor Vast Sun had incarnated as a teacher and gifted him a Star Dao Skill.

It was worth noting that at that time, Saint Emperor Vast Sun had already achieved the Dao for a hundred thousand years!

Guan Yidu only realized much later what a monumental fortune he had received.

From then on, Guan Yidu rose continuously, becoming the protector of a region.

Now, Guan Yidu had reached the Tier Eight Peak. Unable to advance further, his cultivation had hit its ceiling.

If he wanted to continue pursuing the Great Dao, there were two paths available to him.

Either leave this world or break through his own limitations.

Saint Emperor Vast Sun had chosen to break his own limitations, and his chosen method was the direct fusion of Taiyin and Taiyang.

’The fusion of Taiyin and Taiyang gives birth to Chaos Qi, and even the substance of long life?’ Fang Yang narrowed his eyes, observing Guan Yidu’s actions.

The reason Guan Yidu had ambushed and killed the Ancient Demon Butterfly was to seize its immense life force, ignite his own divine fire of life, and emulate Saint Emperor Vast Sun.

His every move fell under Fang Yang’s gaze.

At this moment, for no particular reason, Fang Yang thought of Sen Yue and the Great Sun Dragon Lady.

The former represented the moon, and could be considered Taiyin.

The latter represented the sun, and could be considered Taiyang.

’Could it be... the appearance of these two Young Venerables... there’s a sense of destiny to it?!’

’And following that hypothesis, the next Young Venerable is very likely... the fusion of Taiyin and Taiyang?!’

’A Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram?!’

’If that’s the case, will it be me, or Su Dao?!’

"Hiss..." Fang Yang drew in a sharp, cold breath.

’It can’t be that much of a coincidence, can it?’

’Even if it is a coincidence, it feels a bit too deliberate.’

’It’s as if an invisible pair of great hands is manipulating everything from behind the scenes.’

According to rumor, anyone who spoke Saint Emperor Vast Sun’s true name would die a violent death. Because of this, his true name gradually vanished into the river of time, unknown to all.

’Could it be... that Saint Emperor Vast Sun is still alive?’

THUMP-THUMP.

THUMP-THUMP-THUMP.

Fang Yang’s heart began to beat faster.

Inevitably, his imagination ran wild as he considered countless possibilities.

Finally, he took a deep breath, and the mirrored lake of his mind gradually calmed.

’Come what may, I’ll face it head-on.’

’Everything I’ve achieved today is thanks to my own hard work.’

Just then, the [Seek Fortune, Avoid Misfortune] talent’s light cluster began to shine brightly.

...

Time flowed like water, passing in the blink of an eye.

This year, Fang Yang turned thirty.

The cultivation realm of his second aperture reached Tier Five Peak.

Not only that, but his second aperture had also finally become a Sacred Body.

The Dream Emperor Dharma Aspect!

Most importantly, his attainment in the Dream Dao school had directly crossed into the Grandmaster Level.

First is the ordinary realm, then proficiency.

At the Master Realm, one develops an intuition for their school.

At the Grandmaster Realm, one can draw parallels, using their main school to simulate the powers of others.

"Grandmaster attainment... Heh, I can even become a Dream Dao Saint now."

Fang Yang felt a sense of security, a smile on his face:

"Even if Sen Yue or the Great Sun Dragon Lady show up, I have nothing to fear."

"No matter how powerful they are, I doubt they’ve reached the attainment of a Dream Dao Great Grandmaster."

The Dream Dao has only just emerged. If Sen Yue or the Great Sun Dragon Lady had truly become Dream Dao Great Grandmasters, then Fang Yang could withdraw from this battlefield, and no one could blame him.

After all, no matter how powerful the Primordial Ancestor of a lineage was, it would be impossible to catch up to a Dream Dao Great Grandmaster in such a short amount of time.

...

...

"A pleasant dream, or a nightmare?"

Sen Yue sighed softly, helplessly rubbing his temples. It was clear he had expended a great deal of mental energy.

’To think that he, Sen Yue, was a man of such immense talent—a Young Venerable publicly acknowledged as an equal to the Venerables of old, a figure who shook the past and present alike.’

Yet, when faced with the entirely new subject of the Dream Dao, he too found it quite troublesome and could only tackle it one small step at a time.

In this moment, he was getting a small taste of the hardships faced by ordinary cultivators.

Namely, that cultivation is not easy!

As of now, he had already touched the barrier to the Master Level of Dream Dao attainment.

In a year at most, he would be able to become a Dream Dao Master and personally descend upon the dream battlefield.

"Wei’Er, Ah Yang, wait for me."

Sen Yue took a deep breath and continued his cultivation.

He greatly looked forward to rescuing his younger sister, Sen Wei, and subduing his brother-in-law, Fang Yang!

...

Sen Yue was not the only one making such progress; the Great Sun Dragon Lady was as well.

In a year at most, she too would personally descend to suppress and kill Fang Yang, turning the tide of the war.

Basically, whoever between her and Sen Yue was one step faster would gain the initial advantage in this great era. One step ahead would lead to being always ahead, eventually resulting in an insurmountable lead!

"Oh? The Great Sage Dream Realms and Saint Dream Realms are dissipating this quickly?"

The Great Sun Dragon Lady mused as she read the military report.

Her gaze was profound. "It seems the power of the Dream Dao will soon extend to the Eight Domains."

The next moment, she formed a Magic Seal with her hands to divine Fang Yang’s age.

Thirty years old!

The Great Sun Dragon Lady considered this. ’Fang Yang is only thirty this year. No matter how powerful he is, at most he could be comparable to Demon Venerable Elysium, perhaps reaching the Tier Five Peak.’

’But that level of strength isn’t enough for his Kun Peng phantom to perfectly solidify, transform into a Dharma Aspect, and then become a Sacred Body.’

’As for Fang Yang’s Dream Dao attainment... heh.’

’It wasn’t that she looked down on Fang Yang. But no matter how extraordinary his talent, without [Dream Dao Skills] or [Dream Dao Ancient Scriptures], his attainment was likely at the ordinary level at best.’

’Soon. It’s coming soon.’

’For the next six months to a year, let Fang Yang continue to enjoy his freedom.’

’When the azure sky is stained with blood, she will make a show of suppressing and killing Fang Yang, announcing her return to the world!’
