A Scroll of Infinite Glory

Chapter 599 The Nine Yangs of Haotian, the Primordial Chaos

During the period of peaceful coexistence among the Supreme Chapters, the great orbs of light created by the main gods shared common fundamental rules.

However, the additional base operation regulations, in addition to the basic rules, vary greatly due to the preferences of each Supreme Chapter.

The Reincarnator Base that Guan Luoyang once belonged to operated in a rather retro manner, where reincarnators were sent to different mission worlds every so often, like they were working.

The Reincarnator Base where Dongfang Wuyou was located arranged all Reincarnators below the seven-star level to be in the reincarnation mode.

As the name suggests, the reincarnators in that base must be reborn and start over every time they go to a mission world.

Around this reincarnation model, many services have also emerged in that base. For example, you can use points to define a range for reincarnation and choose a good starting point.

Dongfang Wuyou's first mission was somewhat accidental; he was reincarnated as the eldest son of the Dongfang family of the White Lotus Sect in the world of "Dragon Tiger Gate." Unfortunately, his aptitude for martial arts was poor, his dantian was narrow, and the rate of loss of true qi in his meridians was quite high, far inferior to his brothers.

However, he diligently studied the various martial arts manuals he had collected from the sect. Based on his family's "Nine Yang Divine Skill," he created another set of techniques called "Bone Burning Technique," using the coccyx to replace the function of the dantian acupoint and circulating true qi through the bones throughout the body.

Later, through surgery, he had some extra bones transplanted to create a new circulation of true qi and assist in the operation of internal energy.

This technique allowed Dongfang Wuyou's combat power to advance by leaps and bounds, but it also brought many flaws. When he cultivated to the level of a world-class master, once his true energy was released in battle, his hands from the wrists down would become dry and withered, leaving only charred bones.

He roamed that world for thirty years, experiencing countless ruthless schemes and battles with masters, finally elevating his strength to the ranks of the world's top powerhouses. On that very day, he died from overexertion of his internal energy, which caused his bone marrow to dry up.

Fortunately, he had completed the mission objectives before he died.

Back at the Reincarnator Base, when he was about to be assigned his second mission, Dongfang Wuyou had already accumulated some wealth and had spent some points to ensure that his body after this reincarnation would have excellent aptitude for cultivation.

This time, he was reincarnated into the Dongfang family in the world of "Fox Spirit Matchmaker". His aptitude for cultivation is indeed outstanding, and he was born with the bloodline supernatural power of pure Yang Flame.

Unfortunately, not long after his birth, the Dongfang family was wiped out.

Fortunately, the cultivators in that world, without their magical artifacts, had physical bodies almost no different from ordinary people. He seized the opportunity, channeled the wisp of true energy he had just accumulated, and used the baby's urine as a sword to shoot and kill an enemy responsible for dealing with him, thus escaping to safety.

To make life easier, he even controlled a gang of petty thieves while still an infant, established a new gang, manipulated some wealthy households, and became the local tyrant.

However, because he used too much internal energy while still an infant, his body stopped developing. Even after he came into contact with the cultivation techniques of that world, he was unable to resolve this drawback.

Finally, at the age of one hundred, having completed all the required tasks, he still wanted to expand his territory and collect more resources that were meaningful to the reincarnators. He sent people to secretly plot for a long time and launched a war between humans and demons.

In the end, a few clever people and monsters discovered his existence as the mastermind behind the battle and dragged themselves, covered in blood, into his mountain gate.

What the brave warriors saw was Dongfang Wuyou, in the form of an infant, wearing a yellow robe, sitting high on the throne, laughing at all living beings.

Dongfang Wuyou's subordinates also looked at their leader with utmost reverence, waiting for him to take action, wipe out those few ants, and establish his rule.

Unexpectedly, the accumulated drawbacks of Dongfang Wuyou's cultivation technique had reached a point where they could no longer be suppressed. He lost control while watching the battle between humans and demons, and was actually dead, but still pretending to be smiling.

I wonder what will happen to the human and demon warriors, as well as the villains and henchmen, after they discover this truth.

Anyway, Dongfang Wuyou's consciousness has already returned to the Reincarnator Base.

At that time, Dongfang Wuyou's vision and understanding of cultivation were already extraordinary, and he no longer pursued any particularly good aptitude.

During his third mission, he only narrowed it down to a normal human physique. He used all the other points to buy courses in the Reincarnator Trading Market that might solve the shortcomings of his cultivation technique.

After the third mission began, he was reincarnated into the Wind Continent of the world of "Wind and Grace", becoming the crown prince of a remote small country.

The royal family's martial art in this remote little country is called the Crimson Sun Divine Sword, and no one has been able to master it for many years.

When it came to Dongfang Wuyou's generation, there was a princess with good talent, but even if she cultivated the Red Sun Divine Sword to its peak, she would only be able to fight against a thousand men. How could Dongfang Wuyou possibly be interested in her?

After making some modifications, he then trained his older sister, intending to cultivate a few suitable henchmen for himself.

Unexpectedly, after his older sister grew up, her beauty became so great that the name "Sword Princess" spread far and wide, attracting the attention of an old man on that continent who called himself the Sword Saint.

It was a good thing that the renowned Sword Saint of White Deer Cave, a master whose name has been passed down for thousands of years on the Continent of Wind, came to such a small country and intended to take on a disciple.

However, that sword saint was too cunning and always liked to manipulate the world's situation and engage in some scheming.

How could Dongfang Wuyou tolerate such an old fellow trying to control his life? In a fit of rage, he broke through several defenses in succession, using all his wisdom to think about how to increase the power of his moves. On the spot, he blasted the old fellow into a state of exhaustion and severe injuries, forcing him to flee thousands of miles in defeat.

However, after this battle, he discovered that the flaws in his technique had been magnified to an irreparable degree.

Since all the courses and techniques he had previously purchased with points had been used for other purposes, and this battle had already attracted the attention of the world, Dongfang Wuyou simply began his plan to search for resources from all sides of the Gaifeng Continent ahead of schedule.

In the later stages of Dongfang Wuyou's conquest of the Wind Continent, the power he had continuously released over most of his life had become so dense that it formed layers of fiery clouds, covering the entire sky of the Wind Continent.

For a full ten years, the people of the Wind Continent could only see a crimson sky and never saw a blue sky again.

He transformed himself into a super disaster, whose destructive power, if he were to die, would likely destroy the entire world.

It's not as simple as destroying living beings; it's about blowing up the entire world!

At that time, although he was still only at the peak of the six-star level in the evaluation of the reincarnators, he could already exert destructive power no less than that of the initial stage of the seven-star level with his own internal energy.

Dongfang Wuyou used this method to force the wise and talented people of the Wind Continent, regardless of whether they were righteous or evil, to devote themselves to studying the principles behind his technique going out of control.

Even those benevolent and virtuous individuals from other continents overseas joined the effort to quell the impending catastrophe.

Although their research must have included the idea of ​​how to eliminate Dongfang Wuyou while dealing with the disaster.

However, in reality, all their research findings were discovered by Dongfang Wuyou and became nourishment for him.

Fifty years later, Dongfang Wuyou had become the "heaven" of that world, both in terms of objective phenomena and psychological significance.

It was at that moment that he truly grasped the mysteries of the Four Heavenly Gates of the Divine Gate and stepped into the Seven-Star Realm.

Once you enter the Seven Stars realm, you'll directly reach the advanced Seven Stars level!

From that time on, he never encountered anyone who could surpass him in the same realm.

Although he broke through the Qi barrier when he reached the Seven Stars level, he could still compete with those who had reached the Heart barrier in terms of skill and mystery, with those who had reached the Divine barrier in terms of martial will, and with those who had reached the Body barrier in terms of the Heaven-Burning Battle Bone. He could remain undefeated in any aspect.

Once he reached the eight-star level, even nine-star reincarnators were unable to provide him with effective guidance.

Even a top-tier expert at the nine-star level couldn't definitively say which aspect of Dongfang Wuyou was weak, or which area he could clearly improve upon.

Some within the Chaos Tide even believe that Dongfang Wuyou's cultivation path may have slightly deviated from the system of the Main God Space.

Therefore, the cultivation methods and evaluation standards of the normal Divine Gate Four Heavenly Gates should not be directly applied to him.

Now it was Guan Luoyang's turn to experience this feeling of utter helplessness.

………………

boom!!!!

Guan Luoyang received another palm strike from Dongfang Wuyou. Although his body did not stagger, a narrow crack spread out from beneath his feet, growing wider and wider.

When the crack reached a mountain range behind it, the entire mountain range was shattered, turning into black dust that formed a massive storm that swept away into the distance, transforming the entire landscape in that direction into a chaotic, ink-like scene.

This is because the mountain range was located within the territory of the Primordial Abyss, and all the mountain structures were reorganized into Primordial matter; otherwise, the damage would have been far more than this.

The power of Dongfang Wuyou's palm strike was actually somewhat weaker than Bai Mei Daoren's Cosmic Torrent, but it was still enough to overwhelm the defensive Bi'an Palm Force, making it unable to fully withstand the force.

What's more troublesome is that Guan Luoyang can sense the White-Browed Taoist's qualities, but he can't sense the qualities of Dongfang Wuyou.

What is so special about Dongfang Wuyou's palm strike that allows it to surpass the palm strike of the Other Shore? Is it the omnipresent yang energy?

Guan Luoyang could easily conjure up a large ball of this level of Yang-attribute true energy.

However, the same amount of yang energy in Guan Luoyang's hands obviously could not exert the same power as Dongfang Wuyou.

Even with the profound essence of the Vacuum Heavenly Demon's Great Dao, he could not detect anything particularly outstanding about him; in other words, he could not sense any flaws in his cultivation.

Could it be the effect of some kind of magical artifact?

Dongfang Wuyou did indeed possess a nine-star divine artifact, and at this moment, that artifact, named "Haotian Mirror," was hovering and rotating behind him.

This octagonal ancient mirror has a frame that looks like it was carved from white jade, and a mirror surface that was polished from yellow jade. The frame is covered with ancient bird-shaped characters and simple patterns, such as taotie, white clouds, bonfires, and sacrificial rituals.

However, at this moment, the mirror of this artifact is facing upwards, and the radiating beam of light is enveloping the Cosmic Taipan Serpent from below.

No matter how much the taipan struggled, it could not easily escape the beam of light from the Haotian Mirror.

The wound it suffered in Guan Luoyang's hands resurfaced, and the scar left by the Pangu Axe became a flaw, firmly attracted by the conspicuous light, pulling it towards the mirror.

It was obvious at a glance that Dongfang Wuyou had already used all the power that this divine artifact could unleash on the Cosmic Taipan Serpent.

Guan Luoyang was unable to grasp the other party's characteristics entirely because Dongfang Wuyou's own martial arts were too profound.

"What, is that not allowed?"

Dongfang Wuyou slightly lowered his sleeve, his palm lightly covering the ground, a cryptic smile playing on his lips. "It seems you can't offer me any more inspiration. The so-called unexpected eight-star reinforcements haven't truly delivered the expected results!"

"Then you should leave."

He didn't look at Guan Luoyang, but seemed to be gazing at the horizon. At this moment, the silver moon was setting in the west, right behind Guan Luoyang, and the moonlight was quite beautiful.

"There's no point in getting entangled in this situation. The taipan is already mine. I'll see how you try to compete with me next time."

Guan Luoyang tilted his head and looked at him, then burst out laughing.

"The taipan is already yours? You're quite humorous."

Guan Luoyang flicked his sleeves and walked forward seemingly without any defenses. "Why do you think that just because we can't imitate you for the time being, it means you've won?"

The two were already less than ten steps apart, but Guan Luoyang closed the distance to about four feet in just a few steps.

Without wasting words, Dongfang Wuyou raised his hand and the Nine Yangs appeared. In an instant, the Nine Yangs merged into one, and he unleashed another palm strike.

Guan Luoyang spread his arms wide, palms facing upwards, the large sleeves of his dark blue robe billowing in the wind, revealing the stars adorning the sleeves and hem.

The combined power of the Nine Yangs Palm did not actually strike Guan Luoyang's chest. Instead, it was blocked by a layer of light white light three inches in front of his chest.

Dongfang Wuyou's eyes narrowed, and a pure and dazzling golden divine fire appeared in his palm, instantly transforming into a totem like a great sun and a golden crow. The strength of his palm force surged to a level that was enough to completely blast away the defense of the "Proof of the Other Shore Seal".

The power of his palm strike was extremely concentrated within a small area. Although the total force was not as great as the White-Browed Taoist's earth-shattering move, its destructive power against Guan Luoyang was no less than the impact he suffered when he coughed up blood earlier.

But this time, Guan Luoyang only let out a long laugh and stretched his arms outwards.

In an instant, the world changed drastically.

The surrounding eight million li of earth's matter, whether mountains, wilderness, strange rocks, or caves, all seemed to have been weathered, flowing and turning into light-colored quicksand.

The dark clouds that had been gathered in the sky by the taipan snake had turned into light white clouds.

The taipan let out a startled hiss, sensing that the matter within its ancestral realm had completely broken free of its control, transforming into a state it itself did not understand.

Dongfang Wuyou, however, was quite knowledgeable and immediately recognized its origin: "The Qi of Tai Su?!"

Guan Luoyang's lifelong learning can be described as a fusion of Taoism and Buddhism.

The Buddhist lineage basically boils down to the Tathagata Palm, the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, and the Seal of Attaining the Other Shore. However, the move "All Dragons of the Universe Attain the Other Shore" is not, in the end, a move specifically designed for defense.

The Xuanmen Taoist lineage started with the Bagua Stone-Smashing and Taiji Whip Hand techniques, then progressed to the Wuwei True Scripture, the Golden Stone Immortal Path, the Heavenly River Orthodox Method, and so on. There was also the Guangcheng Immortal Sect, which originated from reading the Book of Changes, the Primordial Universe, and even the Acquired Chaos Array and the Fuxi Shadow Painting Inheritance.

His profound understanding of Taoism even surpasses his comprehension of Buddhism.

Now that his attack power is limited to only 10%, the offensive techniques he used to prefer, which were far more offensive than defensive, are basically no longer applicable. He needs to create something new and the best choice is, of course, to start with the true meaning of the Dao.

"Indeed, the universe absorbs both the pure and the impure, and the Daoist temple transforms the world..."

The primordial energy, like clouds and smoke, like flowing sand, manifested as a light white color according to Guan Luoyang's wishes.

Dongfang Wuyou's palm strike was completely swallowed up by the Zhou Tian Tai Su Dao Field.

Although Guan Luoyang's figure was only a few inches in front of Dongfang Wuyou's palm, this body was actually just a projection of his concept of existence. At this moment, the entire Zhou Tian Tai Su Dojo could be considered his true body.

The profound sound echoed, resonating throughout the temple.

"The universe loses its primordial magnetism, and the galaxy returns to its original state!"

Suddenly, all the rivers in the sky seemed to fall at once, and all the energy on the earth surged forth.

Everything seemed to have lost the constraints that originated from the most basic level, so the layers of restraint collapsed one after another, and all things were transformed into a state of carefree freedom. If disturbed, they would surge back in a mighty backlash.

The rules of the competition limited Guan Luoyang's attack power. However, if an external force disturbs the things in the Tai Su state and they are subjected to the backlash of the most fundamental level of the entire universe, then this is simply the operation of the ultimate principle of the universe, a normal phenomenon that is only natural.

Guan Luoyang did not launch an attack, nor could it be considered a counterattack. He simply created a Tai Su Domain at the perfect moment, adjusted it to the most easily activated position and state, and left it there, passively waiting for Dongfang Wuyou's attack.

He genuinely ignored and did not participate in the subsequent Tai Su counterattack, so how could there be any so-called restriction?

Dongfang Wuyou clasped his hands together, and a red jade-like barrier rose up in front of him, blocking all the impact of the Tai Su Qi. However, in an instant, countless cracks appeared on the red jade barrier.

"Ha! It actually managed to surprise me?!"

In the wars that preceded this region, when facing the White-Browed Taoist, all that was needed was for Du Fa or Hai Donglai to bring their own Nine-Star Divine Artifacts and launch a solo attack, which would have led to a protracted war.

However, it usually takes at least two eight-star experts, each carrying a divine artifact, to contend with Dongfang Wuyou.

Although Yan Kuangtu also possessed a hand seal technique that allowed him to fight Dongfang Wuyou to a standstill, that technique posed a significant risk to Yan Kuangtu's future cultivation, making it inconvenient for him to use it frequently.

Therefore, it can be said that Dongfang Wuyou has only now truly encountered someone who can rival him at the same level.

Although he was using his Nine-Star Divine Artifact to restrain the Taipan Serpent, he could certainly see that Guan Luoyang's Nine-Star Divine Artifact also had other uses and was too busy to unleash its power. The two were truly locked in a battle of their very foundations.

"The sun soars to the heavens, becoming the Azure Heaven!!"

Dongfang Wuyou let out a low shout, and clusters of sun totems appeared one after another in front of and behind him, including golden crows, bull heads, tiger faces, Taotie, Fusang, giant dragons, vertical eyes, lotus flowers, and black bells.

The nine totems converged and rotated, leading a raging torrent of sunlight that surged back, offsetting the massive amount of primordial energy, and instantly purifying the world.

But even in this much clearer world, there are still clouds and shifting sands.

Guan Luoyang stood floating in the air, with two of the most concentrated Tai Su Qi condensed on his palms. With a slight twist of his arms, the Tai Su Qi coiled in the air, repelling all nine totems.

However, behind the nine totems, Dongfang Wuyou also arrived amidst the raging sun and torrents, his hands radiating unparalleled sword energy, heading straight for Guan Luoyang.

The moment the red light shone from his fingertip was like the rising sun, its radiance stretching across the ages and traversing the eight directions.

Time and space were everywhere submerged in the blazing dawn and the sword energy like a thousand needles and ten thousand points.

Logically speaking, attacks targeting past points in time of an expert of the same level are completely useless and will inevitably be blocked. Therefore, even eight-star experts rarely use this method against people of the same realm.

However, Dongfang Wuyou is different. His Haotian Nine Yang Red Sun Sword Qi is vast and all-encompassing. Whenever he makes a move, it inevitably includes all past points in time, and even segments of the future.

Whether something is useful or not is not important. Heaven is divided into nine regions, and all worship the Supreme Heaven.

Nine suns lead the nine heavens, the heavens descend to the mortal world, their power and virtue are boundless, and nature does everything to the utmost.

However, Guan Luoyang's surroundings were filled with a righteous aura that shook the universe. His sleeves swayed like lotus leaves in the wind, and his hands manipulated the Taiji Bagua and the infinite essence of the Fuxi Formation. He used the Tai Su Daoist Temple to explain this, causing the sword energy of the Nine Yang Red Sun Divine Sword to melt away like snow, making it difficult for it to advance for a while.

The two figures clashed millions of times in the Tai Su Domain in an instant.

The next moment, the Bagua spun in the air and was shattered by the force of the Nine Yang Palm.

Guan Luoyang's figure had already appeared beside the Haotian Mirror, stepping on a hollow Bagua image. He grabbed the Taipan Serpent with one hand and spun around, pulling it away from the Haotian Mirror.
