King of Ten Thousand Years

Chapter 188 - 186: Creation, Second-Layer, and Peeking into Destiny

Before the cliff, the sun rose in the east.

Luo Tian held the two tokens, understanding his mentor’s inner struggle.

Transcendent Sects were the dream of countless Martial Artists, but they also came with great peril.

Back then.

Lin Dongfeng had walked this path and wasted thirty years of his life in bleakness.

The risks Luo Tian faced far surpassed those Lin Dongfeng had faced in the past.

On one hand, Prince Zheng’s influence would not allow Luo Tian to become a Sect Disciple so easily.

On the other hand.

Lin Dongfeng’s enemy was in the Yunxiao Sect. After thirty years, there was no telling how powerful he had become.

However, Luo Tian had never been one to shy away from a challenge.

"Rest assured, Mentor! I will become a Sect Disciple and fulfill the wish you were unable to achieve."

Luo Tian’s gaze was resolute.

Even without the threat from Prince Zheng and the Royal Family, joining a Sect was the best opportunity for Luo Tian to reach the peak of Martial Arts.

"Good!"

Lin Dongfeng gave him a deep look.

In every aspect, Luo Tian far surpassed his younger self. He had created one miracle after another and seemed unfathomably profound.

Only by entering a transcendent Sect could Luo Tian fulfill his ambitions.

Next.

Lin Dongfeng informed Luo Tian about the details of the Yunxiao Sect’s entrance examination.

First.

The reception point for the entrance examination was in the Chilong Dynasty.

"The Chilong Dynasty?"

Luo Tian was astonished. It was an incredibly distant place.

"From the Azure Cloud Kingdom to the Chilong Dynasty, you have to cross twenty nations, including some treacherous wastelands," Lin Dongfeng explained.

"For such a long distance, is three months enough time?" Luo Tian asked.

"It’s enough! First, go to the border of the Azure Cloud Kingdom. I will help you prepare a Flying Bird Mount," Lin Dongfeng replied.

Luo Tian nodded. With a Flying Bird Mount, he could travel much faster.

Before they parted.

Luo Tian remembered something—the legacy of the Sun Chasing Founder.

That legacy was in Luo Tian’s mind, and the Celestial Book could record it with almost no consumption of energy.

With the help of the Celestial Book, Luo Tian could impart the legacy’s Great Sun Map into Lin Dongfeng.

The prerequisite was that Lin Dongfeng must not resist.

"The legacy of the Sun Chasing Founder?"

Lin Dongfeng’s expression was one of shock.

But on second thought, it wasn’t surprising that Luo Tian had obtained such a reward after clearing the tenth floor of the Spirit Fighting Tower.

At first, Lin Dongfeng was unwilling to accept the legacy.

"This legacy is just a copy for you, Mentor. It won’t affect me at all," Luo Tian explained with a smile, convincing Lin Dongfeng.

He extended a palm and pressed it onto the crown of Lin Dongfeng’s head.

In that instant.

A searing, revolving Great Sun Map merged into Lin Dongfeng’s mind.

The difference was, the Great Sun Map was no longer incomplete.

Luo Tian had used the Celestial Book to complete the missing one-fifth, and the cost was not small.

Finally.

Luo Tian took out another Red Lotus Fruit and forcibly pushed it into Lin Dongfeng’s hand.

Luo Tian did this because he wanted Lin Dongfeng to break through to the Earth Element Realm sooner, so he could protect their friends and family in the Azure Cloud Kingdom.

If the Hidden Dragon Sect had two or three Earth Element Realm experts in the future, they could even overthrow the Royal Family.

The Royal Family’s ingratitude had completely chilled Luo Tian’s heart.

Someday in the future.

Once he had enough strength, Luo Tian would definitely eliminate the Royal Family.

SWOOSH!

Luo Tian’s figure leaped away, quickly turning into a black dot in the distance.

Lin Dongfeng held the Red Lotus Fruit, perceiving the legacy in his mind, his feelings complex.

He had a feeling that the master-disciple bond between him and Luo Tian might be coming to an end.

...

「A few days later.」

The news that Luo Tian was wanted by the Royal Family spread throughout the entire Azure Cloud Kingdom.

The Three Great Holy Mansions and all the major powers in the Martial Arts Circle were shaken by it.

In the Martial Cities of every major city.

One could see the strange sight of Luo Tian simultaneously ranked first on the Human List and first on the wanted list.

In order to capture the wanted Luo Tian.

The Azure Cloud Monarch spared no expense, even promising the title of Prince to whoever succeeded.

For a time.

In the Martial City and the Black Market, numerous Martial Artists were in an uproar, activating vast information networks to search for Luo Tian.

However.

Since escaping the Sun Chasing Holy Mansion, Luo Tian had vanished without a trace. Even if a clue was found, the trail would quickly go cold.

「Ten days later.」

Near the border of the Azure Cloud Kingdom.

A burly man with a large saber at his waist rode a warhorse along a mountain path.

The brawny man had yellowish skin and muscles like lumps of iron, exuding a fierce aura.

"Halt!"

A team of black-robed Martial Artists rushed out from the side of the path, carrying a murderous aura.

"Hahaha! A random bunch of nobodies dares to rob me."

The burly man laughed wildly.

CLANG!

He drew the large saber from his back, unleashing the powerful might of the Ninth Layer of Meridian Opening.

"Hmph!"

The leading Martial Artist’s Qi Sea Spiritual Vortex began to revolve, and a wave of Spiritual Power pressed down.

"Ah! A Spirit Sea Realm expert! Let’s talk this over..."

The burly man’s expression changed drastically, replaced by a fawning and sycophantic look.

The Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artist unrolled a scroll and compared it to the man.

The handsome youth in the painting was completely different in body shape and height from this burly man.

"What’s your name?"

The Spirit Sea Realm Martial Artist frowned.

According to their intelligence, the target was highly likely to travel along this desolate mountain path.

"I am Ren Fei, known in the martial world as Three Dominating Sabers," the burly man said with a hint of pride.

"Boss, there really is a person like that. He used to serve in the army and later became a bandit..." a black-robed Martial Artist whispered.

"Have you seen this person?"

The leader unrolled the scroll, revealing a cloaked youth.

"Of course I’ve seen him! The Human List genius, Luo Tian."

The burly man recognized him at a glance.

"Where did you see him?" The leader’s eyes lit up.

"In the Human List publications. Who doesn’t know him?" the burly man said with a laugh.

"Scram!"

The leader, enraged, immediately drove the burly man away.

The burly man mounted his warhorse and fled in disarray.

After riding some distance away.

The panic on the brawny man’s face vanished, replaced by a grave expression. ’The inspections have gotten stricter near the border.’

The burly man was none other than Luo Tian in disguise.

After cultivating the Celestial Furnace Treasure Body, Luo Tian had greater control over his body. On top of the Bone Shrinking Skill, he could also manipulate his muscles to change his build.

Before this.

Luo Tian had changed his identity several times, but the Martial City’s information network was too terrifying. The slightest slip-up would get him targeted.

At a certain moment.

A cone-shaped mountain peak appeared ahead, surrounded by lush green woods.

’This must be the place.’

Luo Tian gazed at the cone-shaped peak.

According to Lin Dongfeng, he would arrange for someone to leave a Flying Bird Mount for him on the mountain peak.

By riding the bird, Luo Tian could quickly leave the Azure Cloud Kingdom.

Suddenly.

Luo Tian felt a sense of crisis. The Creation Technique was warning him.

This sense of crisis was vague and indescribable.

Luo Tian formed a spell seal with his hands. The sense of crisis fluctuated, sometimes feeling distant and sometimes near, as if it were coming from all directions at once.

’It seems the real calamity has arrived.’

Luo Tian’s heart sank.

With his mastery of the first layer of the Creation Technique, it was difficult to distinguish truth from illusion, as if he were blocked by an invisible barrier.

’No need to rush.’

Luo Tian didn’t go to the appointed place. There was no exact time anyway.

He changed direction, found a vine-covered cliff face, and chiseled out a space the size of a small hut before sitting down cross-legged.

Luo Tian did not practice any True Qi Martial Skills. Instead, he cultivated the Celestial Destiny Creation Technique.

In recent days.

Luo Tian’s Creation Technique had reached the Perfection of the first layer. He needed an opportunity to break through the bottleneck.

At this moment.

The situation was unclear, and the crisis was unpredictable.

Luo Tian decided to advance his Creation Technique to the Second-Layer to grasp the secrets of destiny more clearly.

As he cultivated.

Wisps of wondrous spiritual fluctuations surged from Luo Tian’s body.

In Luo Tian’s mind, a brilliant, crystal-white, void-like ball of light appeared, its surface rippling with transparent, azure patterns.

Half a day later.

The crystal-white, void-like light showed only a faint hint of azure in its patterns.

’Too slow!’

Luo Tian stopped his Cultivation, his brow furrowed slightly.

SWOOSH!

Luo Tian flipped his hand, and a pouch-shaped banana leaf appeared.

The leaf unfolded, revealing a cluster of crystal-clear dew that resembled a flawless, transparent crystal.

This dew was none other than the Celestial True Water, which he had obtained from Profound Spirit Mountain.

Celestial True Water was a treasure formed by absorbing the profound mysteries of heaven and earth. It could enhance a Martial Artist’s foundation and fortune. It could even slightly increase the success rate when breaking through to the Earth Element Realm or higher.

He had learned from the Celestial Book that Celestial True Water could also advance the Cultivation of the Celestial Destiny Creation Technique.

GULP!

Luo Tian opened his mouth and drank the Celestial True Water.

In that instant.

A stream of inscrutably profound, clear energy flowed through Luo Tian’s body, merging with his mind and soul.

Luo Tian circulated the Creation Technique, guiding this clear energy.

BUZZ!

In his mind, the crystal-white, void-like ball of light was now wreathed in even more azure, rippling patterns.

Half an hour later.

The crystal-white, void-like ball of light transformed into a pale-azure cloud, surrounded by a layer of azure, rippling patterns.

The moment the pale-azure cloud formed.

Luo Tian’s Spiritual Power underwent a sudden qualitative change.

His aura grew deeper, and he exuded a mysterious, abstruse air, like that of an ancient sage.

’The Creation Technique has broken through to the Second-Layer!’

Luo Tian’s eyes opened, and a layer of azure ripples appeared within them.

Invisible flashes of lightning crossed the void, and a powerful spiritual pressure surged forth, enough to make a High-Tier Spirit Sea Realm expert’s expression change.

Not only that.

When Luo Tian fully activated the Creation Technique.

the faint, azure outline of a void-like eye appeared between his eyebrows.

’Is this... the prototype of the Celestial Eye?’

Luo Tian was greatly surprised.

This outline of the Celestial Eye existed on a void-like plane, invisible to ordinary people.

At this moment.

Luo Tian’s senses were incredibly sharp, able to discern all sorts of intangible auras between heaven and earth.

This discernment was no longer limited to simple Qi Observing; he could see through all illusions and perceive their true essence.

When he was at the first layer of the Creation Technique.

Luo Tian could only vaguely sense good or bad fortune, but he couldn’t deduce the specific reasons.

After advancing to the Second-Layer.

Luo Tian could now grasp more details of Destiny, infer the reasons behind fortune and misfortune, and peer into more of heaven’s secrets.

Such an ability was worthy of a master of Divination!

’I’d like to see just where the cause of this impending calamity lies.’

Luo Tian sneered and used his Inference Skill.

BUZZ!

The Void Celestial Eye between his eyebrows rippled with faint azure patterns.

His fingers moved like a blooming lotus, creating countless transparent, azure ripples that flowed into the long river of Heaven and Earth’s Destiny...
