Chapter 834 The Secret Technique of Forcibly Seizing the Glowing Clouds
After completing the suppression and killing of the Fu family patriarch in the shortest possible time, they took a period of rest and recuperation.

Whether in their physical forms or residing at the Heavenly Capital Taoist Temple, the six avatars continue to carry out the exchange of the Dragon-Scented Gauze Robe as before.

The others continued to immerse themselves in the refining of the Nine Revolutions Dao Sea Blood River Saintly Pill, rapidly filling in the cultivation path of Yue Hanzhang at the eighth level of the Outer Realm.

in this way.

Yue Hanzhang's attention instantly shifted from internal improvement back to the external level.

The most important item is still the nine-aperture jade bead.

Yue Hanzhang may seem to have a considerable gap in his level of understanding, but in fact, he is not far from the true path ahead.

In the cultivation of the Outer Realm, Yue Hanzhang only had the final level of cultivation left.

Considering that he had previously used a supreme divine weapon to kill the Fu family patriarch with a single blow, it was also worth noting that he had previously used a hidden weapon to kill the patriarch of the Fu family.

Upon closer examination, the path to the Nine Heavens in the outer realm is already open and unobstructed.

On this basis, once Yue Hanzhang takes another leap forward, he will truly achieve the position of Inner Realm Dao Lord.

Based on the heartfelt words spoken by the two ancestors of the Fu family before their deaths, and Yue Hanzhang's subsequent observations of the Inner Realm Dao Lord.

Once you reach this level, all that's needed is a little time for reflection and accumulation.

Then one can go all out and refine the three Dao Scenery Worlds into one's own Form and Spirit World in one go!
It is said to have three levels of inner realm, but in reality, it does not require cultivation of each level.

even.

If it weren't for the constraints of different realms, this step of cultivation should have involved refining all nine Dao Realm Worlds internally in one go.

After all, the cultivation of the external realm is a process of creating something from nothing. It is a step-by-step transformation of external objects and the natural forces of heaven and earth into the Dao landscape reflected by one's own origin.

However, in the cultivation of the Inner Realm, these Daoist landscapes are no longer external objects.

It is simply a part of the origin of one's own Taoist principles.

The internal cultivation of the Dao Jing world into the Xing Shen world is a symbol of the unity of the Daoist origin and the Xing Shen origin.

It should be accomplished in one fell swoop.

This is how it is calculated.

Yue Hanzhang's road ahead may seem long, but in reality, he only has two big steps left to take.

therefore.

Eliminate the radiant glow within the Nine-Aperture Jade Bead, glimpse the essence and secrets of the source of extraordinary power, and explore methods to break free from the shackles that lie ahead.

These are all urgent matters.

Previously, Shi Yuehanzhang had also been working diligently.

But after he witnessed Lin Laogui's even more rapid progress in this area.

Then I suddenly realized that I wasn't making enough progress.

Although at this stage, the concept of a struggle for supremacy no longer exists, if we really compare them, Yue Hanzhang and Lin Laogui are not from the same generation; there is a difference of hundreds or thousands of years between them.

Who completes this step first and who completes it later is not such an important matter.

But Yue Hanzhang still instinctively wanted to catch up, at least not to fall too far behind Lin Laogui in terms of progress.

Often, what may seem like a minor difference in status can actually determine whether one faces a proactive or reactive situation during periods of dramatic change.

Even just wanting to catch up is not an easy task for Yue Hanzhang.

This was accompanied by the demise of the Fu family patriarch and the patriarchs of the two Wang families.

The gap in the protective net of the outer star sea was repaired again by the Dao Lords and Great Sages of the Inner Realm.

Very few of the wandering demons and ghosts have escaped the net.

How could the demon king who only hunts in the wilderness compare to Old Ghost Lin, whose roaming demons and ghosts are everywhere?

Blindly working hard will only make you fall further and further behind Lin Laogui.

Yue Hanzhang must work on improving efficiency.

In this matter, what efficiency can compare to that of beings at the inner realm level?
Looking back on it this way...

Even when Lin Laogui made his move before, he showed a somewhat impatient style of doing things.

Clearly, the efficiency of the inner-world level creatures in this matter is something even Old Ghost Lin envies.

However, when he was stationed in the outer star sea, he could not easily attack the inner realm level creatures who were also stationed there. Not to mention Dao Lords, even Great Saints could not do so.

With such a pretext to violate the ironclad rules, it's no wonder that Old Ghost Lin was so eager.

Such a leap forward is rare even for Lin Laogui.

For Lin Laogui, unless something earth-shattering happens, he can only enjoy this opportunity once.

But what about Yue Hanzhang?
To march into the outer reaches of space?
Yue Hanzhang wouldn't be so reckless.

However, it is not only in the outer star seas that beings of the inner realm level exist.

The moment Yue Hanzhang's thoughts reached this point.

He had already stood still, instantly appearing above the Heavenly Capital Sacred Realm, and then, in the instant he took a step forward.

Yue Hanzhang had already traversed the narrow star field of the entire ancient battlefield.

He stood alone, directly above the demon race's territory!
Before him stood the colorful, demonic mist swirling around the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array.

For an instant.

All the eyes of the ancestors and kings in the sky fell on Yue Hanzhang.

Even faster than the gazes of these two races were the colorful demonic mists lingering over the inner layers of the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array.

The dazzling, eerie light suddenly converged inwards in that instant.

The moment all the concealment vanished, the true state of the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array was revealed before Yue Hanzhang's eyes.

Immediately.

This made Yue Hanzhang raise an eyebrow.

Because at this moment, the one perched atop the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array, reflecting the aura of the Great Saints of the Inner Realm, is not only the Serpent Saint who was severely injured in the past.

Beyond its form, there were three other Great Sages of the Inner Realm, each displaying an aura no less imposing than the Lion King of yesteryear, who joined forces with it to control the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array.

Yes.

In the past, under the cover of the ancient battlefield, in addition to the Lion King, there were also the figures of six Ancestral Saint Kings, who were reflected from afar using only the true spirits of their own true spirit worlds.

The Lion King's original plan was not for four Ancestral Saint Kings to ascend to the Inner Realm Great Saint realm, but for seven!

At that time, Yue Hanzhang first beheaded the Lion King.

Of the remaining three saints who crossed the river, Yue Hanzhang killed two more.

After that battle.

It appears that only the Serpent Saint survived. But in fact, there were three Inner Realm Great Saints in reserve. Because their bloodline transformation and leap process was slower, they actually avoided the blood calamity.

They then took advantage of the Serpent Saint's control over and shielding of the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array to conceal their existence.

Until now.

Yue Hanzhang came knocking on the door again.

The Serpent Saint, though outwardly fierce, inwardly flicked its tongue, and amidst its hoarse hiss, its inner voice erupted.

"King Lingye!"

"Don't think that just because you can kill a third-level Heavenly Dao Lord of your human race, you can bully my Holy Race at will!"

"Now that the four of us sages have gathered together and are jointly in control of the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array, no matter who comes to attack, they will be forced to retreat in vain!"

"You are indeed powerful, but you cannot break through that barrier. Facing the Four Saints directly is nothing but a futile effort, a fruitless endeavor!"

Hear the words.

Yue Hanzhang was genuinely speechless.

Although the Serpent Saint's words sounded cowardly, even with the four saints gathered together and even with the Ten Thousand Saints Heavenly Array in his hands, he only dared to speak of defense in front of Yue Hanzhang.

They only dared to say that they had returned empty-handed and had gained nothing.

But ironically, when it's so cowardly, it only talks about defense.

Yue Hanzhang really couldn't do anything about them.

The Myriad Saints Heavenly Array, controlled by the Great Sage of the Inner Realm, is already very powerful.

The combined aura of the four saints is something Yue Hanzhang cannot ignore now.

The combination of these two factors made Yue Hanzhang's position truly impregnable.

and……

Yue Hanzhang scanned the figures of the other three newly born Inner Realm Great Sages.

A firebird, a tiger king, and an alligator snapping turtle.

In addition, there is the Serpent Saint, whose origins seem to have recovered somewhat.

Qinglong, Suzaku, White Tiger, Xuanwu.

This is the pattern of the Four Symbols in the primordial order.

With the Grand Array of Ten Thousand Saints, the gathering of the four saints is likely not just a simple accumulation of their auras, but also an amplification and enhancement from the rotation of the four elements.

Before truly making internal-level attack methods a regular part of one's own capabilities.

He really couldn't shake this defensive position in the slightest.

Thinking about this, Yue Hanzhang couldn't help but feel sorry for the Lion King who had arranged all of this in the past.

The Four Symbols of Heaven are not the limit of the Lion King's scheming.

If the Lion King had not died, and had been in charge of the Heavenly Origin Wuji Qilin, then the power of the Five Saints would have been combined, and the Five Elements of the Primordial Heaven and Earth would have been used to govern the Myriad Saints Heaven and Earth Array.

Supporting the entire world with the principles of the Five Elements, and interpreting all phenomena and laws.

At that time, the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array will reach a point where it is truly both offensive and defensive, and invincible.

Even beyond this, there are two saints who can roam freely outside the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array, moving lightly and freely.

at that time.

Even with Yue Hanzhang stationed at the border of the Dao Alliance, it was still difficult to achieve anything.

The clash between the two factions leaves the outcome uncertain.

Fortunately.

That battle in the past ultimately rendered the Lion King's plans futile.

Only four of the five elements remained, and the two remaining sages who had gone free also turned to ashes.

The desperate attempt to turn the tide has now been reduced to nothing more than feeble and powerless talk of defense.

It was during this process that Yue Hanzhang's thinking changed slightly.

"Want to guard this turtle shell? Then so be it!"

"Having only reached the Inner Realm, how long can you guard this Myriad Saints Heavenly Array?"

"Our Dao Alliance's golden age of humanity has now entered its true peak with the implementation of the great reform project."

"The balance of power between the two races has already been decided!"

"Considering that you are all four saints gathered together, let's not talk about defense. I, Yue, will give you a chance to admit defeat peacefully."

Hear the words.

On the Great Array of All Saints, the four saints remained silent for a few breaths.

then.

The Serpent Saint's inner voice slowly resounded.

"What... would it mean to admit defeat gracefully?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Hanzhang smiled calmly.

"With all the Great Sages of the Inner Realm present, I, Yue, will not exterminate you all. However, if you lose, you must show some dignity."

“The first one!”

"From this day forward, excluding those who ascend from the mortal world and set foot in the boundless starry sea, those outside the demon race's territory and the territory covered by the Myriad Saints Heavenly Array are allowed to leave but not enter!"

"Anyone who leaves the territory of the demon race should be prepared to be hunted and killed by our human cultivators."

"the second one!"

"Furthermore, you should offer blood sacrifices to the human race of our Dao Alliance as tribute!"

“One in ten people of ordinary bloodline are selected.”

"Top predators, two out of ten."

"Small groups will be reduced by half, large groups will remain unchanged, and ancestral tribes will be reduced by three out of ten."

"This poem will be offered once every ten years."

"Don't say I'm cruel. I'm giving you time to recuperate. We're not fighting anymore, so go ahead and have your babies!"

"The third one!"

"You must hand over the secret technique that the Lion King obtained, the Blood-Red Mist Secret Technique, and agree that anyone who dares to use this evil technique to attain the Great Sage of the Inner Realm will have their entire clan exterminated!"
