Mythology: Erlang Shen begins to show his divine power in the heavens

Chapter 239, The Perfection of the Celestial Realm

Upon seeing this, Taiyi's eyes flashed with slight surprise, and a slight ripple appeared on his previously calm face. His voice echoed in Lin Yuan's mind once more:
"When did your strength reach such a level? And have you traveled to other heavens to attain this Dao?"

Lin Yuan remained calm, nodded slightly, and responded methodically:

“I went to the Supreme Primordial Wilderness and collected some things related to the Immortal Path there, and also obtained some Immortal Path Fruits.”

"He even became the only Erlang Shen there."

"Afterwards, he went to the Supreme Universe, devoured many Star Lords, and analyzed the stars and chaotic origins of the Great God Doumu."

Taiyi nodded slightly, his gaze carrying a hint of scrutiny, and his voice echoed in Lin Yuan's mind once more:
"Your experience is certainly rich, but to have traveled to so many worlds and not been killed is truly remarkable. You're incredibly lucky."

Upon hearing this, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Lin Yuan's face.

He secretly thought to himself, how could he have survived those worlds unscathed simply by luck?
It's because of the system!
But he would not reveal such a secret to anyone.

Although he now believes that he can make a name for himself and display his divine power in the prehistoric world even without relying on the system, he is confident that he can do so with his own strength.

However, if he were to leave the primordial heavens and venture into the universe, he knew that he did not yet possess the authority to travel between those heavens.

As for the mountains, seas, and heavens.

The once magnificent mountains and seas no longer exist, all destroyed by Taiyi's thunderous methods and merged into the celestial realm that is currently being perfected.

The remaining power of those mountains, seas, and heavens was also hung on that towering Jianmu tree.

And that Jianmu tree is rooted in the fields of his hometown, Duguang.

Lin Yuan's eyes shone brightly as he stared directly at the powerful aura representing Taiyi deep within the Heavenly Realm, and he proclaimed loudly:
"Well, with my current strength, I'm more than capable of helping you stabilize the Heavenly Realm, right?"

The chaotic and starlight-infused power surrounding him grew increasingly intense, as if providing the most powerful commentary on his words.

Upon hearing this, Taiyi let out a hearty laugh that echoed throughout the Heavenly Realm, a laugh that carried a hint of insight into Lin Yuan.

"You little rascal, are you really that kind? I think you just want a share of my profits!"

Although his voice carried a hint of teasing, it also revealed his understanding of Lin Yuan, after all, they had a deep connection and knew each other's ways of doing things to some extent.

Lin Yuan wasn't annoyed. A sly smile appeared on his lips as he calmly said:

"Anyway, those powers don't mean much to you anymore, do they?"

At this moment, with his Heavenly Eye and his own powerful perception, he became increasingly aware of Taiyi's terror.

In Lin Yuan's perception, Taiyi's aura was like a boundless universe, profound and vast, without any boundaries.

That aura was like an endless dark void, yet it contained countless brilliant starlight. Each starlight was a manifestation of a powerful rule. These rules intertwined and collided, giving rise to unimaginable power.

When Lin Yuan's senses touched this aura, it was like an ant facing the vast sky, its own insignificance revealed.

As Lin Yuan's perception deepened, he discovered that the concepts of time and space were distorted and reshaped within the aura emanating from Taiyi.

Under this aura, time is no longer a linear existence flowing at a constant speed, but rather like a tangled ball of threads, sometimes flowing rapidly, sometimes standing still, and even occasionally flowing backward.

Space no longer follows the conventional three-dimensional structure; countless dimensions intersect and fold together, forming a spatial labyrinth so complex that it is difficult to comprehend.

In this strange space-time, even the slightest fluctuation contains the power to destroy an entire world.

Moreover, the aura emanating from Taiyi carries an innate sense of majesty and oppression. This oppression is not simply a suppression of power, but more like a shock to the depths of the soul.

Lin Yuan felt that his soul was like a candle in the wind, about to be extinguished at any moment, in the face of this aura.

His consciousness struggled in this ocean of energy. Each attempt to explore deeper felt like enduring pressure from the very origin of the universe, a pressure that nearly halted his thoughts and caused his soul to tremble.

Of all the beings Lin Yuan had ever encountered, only those two creator gods could surpass Taiyi before him!
Even the Supreme Desolate Heaven is no match for it!

This power deeply shocked Lin Yuan.

Taiyi shook his head, his vast and invisible consciousness radiating a sense of nonchalance and ease, and said leisurely:

"Fine, since you want to participate, then come on. This kind of work really doesn't mean much to me."

In his eyes, the construction of the celestial realm was important, but with his strength, these matters were nothing more than tedious and energy-consuming tasks.

Now that Lin Yuan has volunteered, it will save him a lot of trouble. Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan was overjoyed, and his usually composed face could not hide his excitement.

He knew that participating in shaping the celestial order would be a rare opportunity.

Not only can it further enhance one's understanding of rules and power, but it is also possible to obtain resources and insights that are crucial to one's own cultivation.

Thus, under Taiyi's subtle guidance, Lin Yuan quickly threw himself into the work of maintaining and shaping the order of the celestial realm.

The power around him surged and churned, like a feast of power, as he began to unleash the multifaceted power he controlled in all directions.

Lin Yuan took the lead in mobilizing the power of spacetime, and for a moment, the spacetime of the celestial realm seemed to be controlled by an invisible hand.

He subtly altered the flow of time in different areas, allowing time to flow swiftly like a rushing stream in places where the nurturing of spiritual beings needed to be accelerated.

In some core areas where stable order is needed, time moves slowly, like a tranquil deep pool.

On the spatial level, he further demonstrated his skills, meticulously sculpting the space of the celestial realm.

He created countless hidden dimensional spaces to store the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and precious spiritual objects.

They also compressed and integrated some barren areas, transforming them into vast plains suitable for living beings.

Those spatial barriers that originally hindered the development of the Celestial Realm were shattered and reassembled under his spacetime power, making the spatial layout of the Celestial Realm more rational and the connections between various places closer.

Immediately afterwards, he also freely used the power of Yin and Yang reincarnation.

He used the power of Yin and Yang as a foundation to construct a vast energy circulation system in the celestial realm.

The positive energy, like a blazing flame, provides life and vitality, driving the growth and prosperity of all things.

The feminine force, like tranquil moonlight, nourishes the spirit of heaven and earth, maintaining stability and balance. The two interact and wax and wane, like breathing, infusing the celestial realm with a continuous flow of life force.

The power of reincarnation plays a crucial role in this process. Lin Yuan integrated it into the life system of the celestial realm, enabling living beings to follow the laws of reincarnation after death and embark on a new life journey.

This initiative not only improved the celestial ecosystem but also brought a sense of endless, cyclical beauty to the entire world.

Under Lin Yuan's control, the power of cause and effect also wove an invisible yet resilient net.

He connected the threads of cause and effect to every corner of the heavens.

In this way, good causes lead to good results, and bad causes lead to bad results; everything receives its corresponding retribution and feedback.

The Root Dao, which forms the foundation of Lin Yuan, now displays unparalleled power.

He transformed the power of the Root Dao into a pure primordial power, like the creative power at the beginning of the universe, permeating every inch of land and every wisp of spiritual energy in the celestial realm.

This primordial power possesses boundless inclusiveness and creativity; it can evolve the essence of all things in the world, making the rules of the celestial realm more perfect and powerful.

Under the influence of the Root Dao, all kinds of spiritual creatures in the celestial realm grew more robustly, and the spiritual veins became more abundant, as if the whole world had been endowed with a deeper foundation.

then.

Chaotic and starlight power surged around him again. Under his control, these powers were like agile sprites, and following the method taught by Taiyi, they began to integrate into the complex rule system of the celestial realm.

Lin Yuan transformed the power of chaos into countless tiny threads, which shimmered with a mysterious luster and carried the primordial aura of the beginning of chaos, slowly permeating every corner of the celestial realm.

Wherever it went, the originally chaotic fragments of rules began to be sorted out and integrated, gradually forming an orderly pattern.

He then transformed the power of starlight into dazzling stars, which floated in the void of the celestial realm.

These stars are not ordinary celestial bodies; each one contains unique laws of power, like nodes in the celestial order, radiating a soft yet powerful light that illuminates the dark areas of the celestial realm that have not yet been touched by the rules.

In shaping spatial order, Lin Yuan used the power of the Chaos Heavenly Eye to clearly perceive the weak points and twisted nodes in the space.

He used the power of chaos as an axe to cut through the distorted folds of space one by one, and then filled and repaired them with the power of starlight, making them stable and smooth.

Time flies like an arrow. With Lin Yuan's all-out assistance, the Celestial Realm, like a meticulously crafted pearl, is becoming stable and perfect at an astonishing speed, far exceeding anything seen before.

The celestial realm, which was originally filled with chaos and disorder, was gradually enveloped by the radiance of order, and everywhere it exuded vigorous vitality.

Lin Yuan also deeply felt the many benefits during this process.

He clearly sensed that his control over the various Great Daos was becoming increasingly adept, and his power was being further refined and enhanced imperceptibly.

Each precise adjustment to spacetime, the perfect fusion of the power of Yin and Yang, the accurate weaving of the threads of cause and effect, and the in-depth application of the Root Dao, the power of chaos, and the power of starlight have given him a deeper understanding of the essence of these powers.

This understanding goes beyond the theoretical level; it translates into actual combat effectiveness and control over the rules of the world.

As Lin Yuan delved deeper into shaping the celestial order, a sudden enlightenment dawned on him, and he gained a completely new understanding of this world of mountains and seas.

He realized that in this world of mountains and seas, the so-called divine system, though seemingly complete, was actually just a means of controlling heaven and earth.

For innate deities like him and Taiyi, the divine system has little practical significance; it merely provides them with a channel to consume excess power.

To truly achieve growth and breakthroughs, one must rely on oneself to forge one's own path.

This path, though full of unknowns and challenges, is the most primitive, purest, and most suitable path for the cultivation of innate deities.

Lin Yuan's thoughts drifted involuntarily to the supreme primordial world.

There, the primordial deities embarked on the path to immortality.

However, at this moment he realized that the seemingly unique path of immortality was essentially following the path set by others.

They continued to explore and pursue this path, but they were never able to escape the shadow of their predecessors.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan's heart couldn't help but stir a ripple, and he began to reflect on his path of cultivation.

He has integrated the characteristics of the three creator gods, which seems to be a powerful fusion and innovation.

But upon closer reflection, isn't this just following in their footsteps?
The three creator gods, each possessing unparalleled power and uniqueness, have profound influence through their characteristics and strengths.

If one integrates these characteristics into oneself, can one truly transform them into a power that is entirely one's own, rather than merely relying on their afterglow?
Furthermore, although its own root Dao is regarded as the origin of everything and possesses infinite inclusiveness and creativity, can it really bear the magnificent and complex characteristics of the three creator gods?
Lin Yuan knew that the Root Dao was the cornerstone of his cultivation system, and its stability was directly related to his future development.

If one cannot properly handle the relationship with the characteristics of the creator deity, it may bring unpredictable crises to one's cultivation.

Taiyi suddenly spoke up:

"Alright, it's been a long time. You can go back now. You don't need to do anything about what happens next. You should prepare for what you were going to do anyway."

Lin Yuan nodded.

During this long period of shaping the order of the celestial realm, he was so immersed in the application and understanding of various great principles that he did not realize that a long time had quietly passed.

He withdrew the surging power emanating from his body.

Then, with a flash, he sped down to the lower realm along the Jianmu tree.

Back in the mortal realm, Lin Yuan hadn't fully recovered from his experience in the celestial realm when information from all directions came flooding in like a tidal wave.

To his astonishment, he discovered that he had already spent tens of thousands of years in the celestial realm!

Tens of thousands of years may not seem like a long time in the unique spacetime environment of the celestial realm, but for the lower world of mountains and seas, it is enough to bring about earth-shattering changes.

"It really is a matter of the vast changes of time. A single insight can be followed by countless years. Now I can truly feel it."

Lin Yuan sighed.

In fact, back in the world of Investiture of the Gods, it took him a long time to fully digest the Dao fruits of many saints.

However, because Hongjun deliberately froze the time, it wasn't so obvious.
