The God of Heavens

Chapter 276 Even if I gave you the Yama Array, you wouldn't be happy.
Danger lurks everywhere within the Yama Array.

The entire formation is arranged in a square nine-palace pattern, and its scale is extremely grand.

Palaces within palaces, nested one inside another, interconnected, resembling a boundless, giant maze.

Space was distorted and twisted, time was disordered and displaced, dark clouds surged, and fog was thick.

Lin Yu probed the array with his divine sense and found that each of the nine main palaces contained a magical treasure. Although hidden among the clouds and mist, it constantly emitted powerful magical energy fluctuations, complementing the great array.

In the main palace where they were now, stood a jade tree, taller than a person, with a smooth and lustrous surface.

In the other main palaces, there are a three-legged tripod, a command flag, an iron incense burner, a white jade seashell, a bronze mirror, a long halberd, a mysterious large egg, and an ancient gourd.

These nine magical treasures resonate with each other, jointly driving the operation of the "Yamfu Grand Array." The nine palace patterns combine with each other, and in their operation, they actually form a tortoise shell shape.

"In ancient times, there was a dragon-like creature, whose feet were like pillars of heaven and whose back was like an island, floating and sinking on the sea..."

This Yama Array uses the shell on the back of a crocodile as its diagram. Stepping into it will cause you to be sucked onto the nine-palace pattern on the shell, trapped in a maze, and subjected to endless torment.

"The Buddha's robe is impervious to all magic! The Panhuang Life-Giving Sword, clear my path!"

With a wave of his sleeve, Lin Yu's Buddha robe stretched out violently, transforming into a golden curtain that blocked the surrounding dark clouds and yin thunder. At the same time, the Panhuang Sword suddenly trembled and immediately displayed its magnificent radiance.

"Shh!"

The sword energy was unparalleled, piercing through the fog and folded space of the great formation in an instant, cutting the thick black clouds and dark lightning in the entire "Yanfu Great Formation" into a sky full of explosions.

"If these nine magical treasures, the Yama Array Diagram, are integrated into the Primordial Heavenly Gate, it will grant the Primordial Heavenly Gate the power of the Nine Palaces, folding space, and causing the internal spacetime of the Heavenly Gate to increase exponentially!"

Lin Yu gazed at the nine magical treasures, then with a swift movement, landed on a small island.

There were no dark clouds or thunder here; it was as calm as the center of a whirlpool.

On this island, a green tree grows, without leaves, but with bare branches that resemble deer antlers or a lingzhi mushroom.

This piece of green wood is one of the key points of the Yanfu Grand Array. It is the Jia-Yi Azure Dragon Wood. The Azure Emperor Yi Wood Thunder that Lin Yu and the others encountered was emitted by this divine artifact.

When Lin Yu refined the Jia Yi Azure Dragon Wood, he immediately felt that he could control this Yanfu Grand Array, which was equivalent to mastering one-ninth of the array's core.

"Very good. As expected of the Primordial Heavenly Dragon's clan-protecting formation, this one divine artifact alone contains endless Azure Emperor Yi Wood Thunder. Once it erupts, even a Ghost Immortal who has undergone five tribulations of lightning will perish."

Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction, but he didn't need to use this formation to fight the enemy. The offensive power of the Panhuang Life Sword was far superior to that of this Jia Yi Azure Dragon Wood.

Divine artifacts are valued for their quality, not quantity. It would be more practical to integrate them into the Primordial Heavenly Gate and refine them into an incomparably powerful artifact from the other shore, at least not inferior to Yang Pan's Creation Boat.

"The Nine Palaces Divine Diagram and the Yama Array, all belong to me!"

With a long shout, Lin Yu unleashed a dazzling golden light from the Panhuang Life Sword in his hand, and the mist of the great formation dissipated wherever the sword passed.

He moved with lightning speed, traversing freely within the Nine Palaces formation. The Azure Dragon Wood of Jia and Yi had been refined, and the Azure Emperor Yi Wood Thunder could no longer harm him in the slightest.

Following the array's guidance, Lin Yu quickly arrived at the second main palace. There, he saw an ancient gourd floating in mid-air, its entire body jet black and its surface covered with silver lightning patterns.

"So this is where all the Yin Thunder originates." Lin Yu pointed his sword, and the Panhuang Sword Qi transformed into golden chains, firmly binding the Yin Thunder Phosphorescent Reed.

The gourd trembled violently, spewing out phosphorescent flames that melted away under the golden light of the Buddha's robe.

Ao Luan saw it clearly: "This gourd contains the Yin Thunder of the Nine Netherworlds. If an ordinary ghost or immortal touches it, their soul will be instantly scattered."

Her starry eyes gleamed: "It seems that each of the nine magical treasures in this Yanfu Grand Formation possesses its own profound mysteries."

Lin Yu did not answer, but his hand seals changed, and the Yin Lightning Phosphorescent Reed gradually shrank, eventually becoming only an inch in size, which he put into his sleeve. The great formation trembled instantly, and the surrounding phosphorescent fire and Yin Lightning dissipated completely.

In the third main palace, the Heavenly Kui Divine Water Cauldron stood silently. Lin Yu used the Panhuang Sword as a guide and borrowed the power of the Tathagata's kasaya to forcefully suppress this divine artifact.

Next came the Six Yang Fire Dragon Mirror, where the essence of the fire dragon was subdued by the Panhuang Sword Light;

The metal halberds of Geng and Xin trembled, and Lin Yu was subdued by his sword intent;

The white jade chariot and shell swayed with the sound of the tides, enveloped and controlled by magical power;

The nine-square pattern on the alligator dragon egg is revealed; it is collected using the Azure Dragon Wood.

The banner, embroidered with a unicorn, is adorned with wind and fire; the sword's light transforms into a binding force, bringing order to the land.

The last item, the Starfire Incense Burner, emitted wisps of smoke, with stars seemingly flickering within. Lin Yu flicked his sleeve, and the incense burner landed in his palm.

With all nine divine artifacts under his control, the Yama Array trembled violently, black clouds surged like boiling water, and the space within the array twisted and folded, revealing the most core origin of the array diagram—

A nine-palace formation diagram shaped like a tortoise shell.

"The alligator dragon and tortoise shell have finally appeared in the world."

Lin Yu's gaze flashed like lightning, and the Panhuang Life-Giving Sword emitted a clear, melodious sword cry. He flashed forward, arriving before the array diagram. The nine palace patterns on the tortoise shell flowed, echoing the nine divine artifacts.

"receive!"

With a soft shout, Lin Yu poured all his magical power into the tortoise shell. The array trembled violently, and the phantom images of nine divine artifacts swirled upon it.

Gradually, the Yanfu Grand Array, covering a radius of a hundred miles, began to shrink, and the nine-palace structure folded layer by layer.

A strange tremor emanated from the space, and the enormous tortoise shell array shrank at a visible speed. It eventually became the size of a palm, hovering silently in Lin Yu's hand.

"It's done."

Lin Yu's lips curled up slightly. At this moment, the Yanfu Grand Array was completely under his control, and the nine divine artifacts and the origin of the array diagram all belonged to him.

Given time to refine it, it can be integrated into the Primordial Heavenly Gate, becoming a world-shaking divine artifact.

Xingmou and Ao Luan exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes. This ancient and peerless formation had actually been completely subdued by Lin Yu in such a short time.

The power of the Panhuang Life-Giving Sword and the Tathagata's Kasaya is indeed extraordinary.

Just as Lin Yu put away the Yanfu Array Diagram, the void suddenly trembled violently, and four terrifying auras broke through the air.

"How dare you, Zhu Zi!"

"The Yamafu Grand Array belongs to my sage family; how dare you lay a finger on it!"

"Quickly put down the array diagram, or I will annihilate your soul and body today!"

Four figures arrived through the air, none other than the heads of the four great sage families. The head of the Brahma family, at the head, had his hair and beard bristling, his hands forming a hand seal, and behind him appeared the phantom of the Six Paths of Reincarnation: "Six Paths of Brahma, Karmic Animal Reincarnation!"

A terrifying force of reincarnation swept over, distorting the void wherever it passed, as if it wanted to cast Lin Yu into the animal realm, never to be reborn.

Following closely behind, the head of the Wang family roared, "Phoenix rebirth, rising from the ashes!"

A fiery phoenix spread its wings and soared into the sky, its blazing flames distorting and warping the surrounding void.

"Lin! Bing! Dou! Zhe!" The Sun family patriarch uttered the true words, and the four golden characters transformed into four golden-armored divine generals, wielding divine weapons as they charged toward Lin Yu.

Faced with this devastating attack, Lin Yu simply shook his head slightly, a mocking smile playing on his lips: "An ant trying to shake a tree."

With a flick of his sleeve, the Yama Array Diagram in his palm turned slightly. Instantly, the Nine Palaces pattern reappeared, and the space within a hundred miles folded layer upon layer.

The terrifying supernatural powers of the four great sage families were trapped in it, like a mud ox entering the sea, futilely traversing the distorted space, yet unable to get close.

"How is this possible?!" The head of the Fan family stared wide-eyed, looking incredulously at his Six Paths of Reincarnation power spinning continuously in the folded space.

Look, Lin Yu really put down the array diagram, and they're unhappy about it again!

"What do you mean 'impossible'? The Yama Formation is already in my grasp. Within this formation, I am the master. If you retreat now, you might still have a chance to save your lives."

Lin Yu stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the four family heads who were filled with shock and anger, and said calmly.

"Bastard!"

"Insanity!"

Fan Yuntao, the head of the Fan family, was furious, and the illusory image of the Six Paths of Reincarnation flickered around him: "How dare you be so arrogant, you brat!"

The Wang family patriarch's eyes gleamed, and his tone softened slightly: "Divine objects belong to those of virtue. If you, young friend, are willing to hand over the Yanfu Grand Array, my Wang family will not only forgive your past transgressions but also bestow upon you countless benefits."

The Wu family patriarch sneered repeatedly: "How dare an insignificant junior like you lay a finger on such a divine object? If you know what's good for you..."

The Sun family patriarch's pupils suddenly contracted, his gaze fixed on Lin Yu's cassock and the long sword in his hand: "This...this is the Tathagata's cassock? And the Panhuang Life-Giving Sword?!"

The four family heads had grim expressions. They either threatened him or tried to lure him with benefits. At this moment, the head of the Sun family discovered that Lin Yu was wearing the legendary Buddha's robe and holding the Panhuang Life Sword. He couldn't help but show a look of shock.

"Haha, divine objects belong to the virtuous. The Panhuang Sword and the Yuanhuang Robe are both in my hands. I have come in accordance with the will of the ancient Holy Emperor. You holy families, why don't you kneel down and offer your loyalty to me? Otherwise, not only you, but also the families behind you will die without a burial place!"

Lin Yu laughed loudly.

"How dare you! How could you possibly covet the foundation of our Sage Family? Even if you possess the Panhuang Sword, Yuanhuang Robe has no right to speak like this."

"That's right, brat, you're so arrogant and ignorant that you dare to challenge the four great ancient families. I don't know how much courage you have to say such a thing!"

"Even the current Emperor Qian, Yang Pan, and Hong Xuanji, how arrogant are they? They only dared to destroy the weak Dachan Temple, how could they ever dare to touch a hair on our Sage Family?"

Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, the heads of the four great families let out a series of sneers.

Ao Luan, the Daoist Master of the Tianlong Sect, explained to Yang Qian with a solemn expression: "Yang Qian, the heads of these sage families have indeed shown up."

That Fan Yuntao is a descendant of the Saint Fan and the head of the Fan family. The 'Six Paths Brahma Fist' he just used was created by Fan Zi, one of the philosophers of the Middle Ages, and its power is profound and mysterious, comparable to...
Ancient classics such as the "Past Scriptures" and the "Dark Records".

Brahma was the most mysterious sage among the philosophers of the Middle Ages; the Brahma school even controlled a small chiliocosm.

Recalling that divine power containing the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, Ao Luan felt lingering fear: "That divine power is extremely troublesome; a slight mistake could lead to the destruction of one's soul. Moreover, the Fan family, with the Six Paths of Brahma divine power, can condense six powerful avatars."

In this operation, the family heads were led by Fan Yuntao, but the heads of the Sun and Wang families were not to be underestimated. The one from the Wang family, who had compiled the *Daoist Scripture* and the *Martial Scripture*, possessed equally unfathomable strength.

"The Six Paths Brahma Fist is indeed remarkable, it has a hint of the Six Paths of Reincarnation."

Lin Yu nodded. The ancient sage Fan Zi truly lived up to his reputation as the most mysterious sage among all philosophers, for the unique skills he created contained such profound and mysterious power of law.

As for the Phoenix Nirvana Path of the Wang family patriarch, the Sun family patriarch and the Wu family patriarch also have their own highlights. Lin Yu's Primordial Path is about embracing all rivers and achieving limitless possibilities.
