Chapter 310: 150 Cut Down That Tree! _1
Atop a high mountain, Shen Yuan sat under a giant Divine Tree, his gaze deep as he looked towards the isolated Dajiang Mountain area.
Utilizing Pot’s Heaven Divine Power, Shen Yuan’s gaze crossed the spatial gap and he saw Dong Youzi enveloped in a primal yellow ray of light flying away from this place.
The primal yellow light carried the weightiness of the mountains and rivers, but also contained the ancient aura of an entire civilization that came into existence; making people feel an irresistible awe-inspiring power, even from glimpsing just its rays.
Even the demon at the apex of the celestial vault did not dare to impede the primal yellow light, thus letting Dong Youzi leave this place.
“The Primal Chaos Nifty Pagoda has recalled four failed trialists in just one day. It seems the trump cards left by the demon are indeed extraordinary!”
Shen Yuan sighed softly.
Over these dozen or so years, the other four cultivators who stepped into the Earth Gate with Shen Yuan have all had their own achievements.
Ji Zhaoyang had established Human Dao Fate with the help of uniting the Hundred Kingdoms of Mu Kingdom, Dong Youzi presided over the Order of Demons and Monsters in Dajiang Mountain as the Ghost King, and Yu Ke and Hea Zhen established the Divine Path Religious Sect to preach the Yin-Yang Technique and harvest faith.
As sacred sages of grotto heavens and blessed lands, the princes of the Great Yin Royal Family, all four are extraordinary people from thousands of years ago.
After their arrival, they become capable of stirring up the power dynamics in this place with their own strength.
In just over a decade, the chaotic rules of this world were almost leveraged by the influence brought by the four, and the Dusk Eyes transformed by the demon in the celestial vault visibly dimmed.
This meant the demon’s control over the world was being stripped away.
If the four could push their practiced paths to the extreme, it is possible that they could fight against the demon head on.
Of course, they could only resist a little. It is impossible to defeat that demon using these means.
Shen Yuan withdrew his gaze and shook his head, saying:
“Completely unify the Hundred Nations and establish an unprecedented unified dynasty.
Create a small world into a Demon Realm, Netherworld.
Popularise the Divine Path Religious Sect to become the founder of one’s own sect.
The three scenarios could temporarily establish a foundation, stabilize the world order and weaken the demon, but ultimately, they cannot shake the demon’s profound integration with the world.”
“The fate of the world lies in the hands of the demon. Whether it is the so-called birth of the Demon King or some hidden dangers brought by the shifting human ethos, everything is but a chess piece under the world’s fate.
The overall situation in the world changes with the demon’s will, even if another ten Spirit Refining True Beings participate in the trials, the result would not differ.
The only opportunity lies in directly targeting the demon’s root, destroying its control over the world’s fate, allowing the world order to be restored.”
At this thought, Shen Yuan looked at the huge Divine Tree he was leaning against.
More than a decade has passed. When Shen Yuan first appeared on this mountain, this tree was nothing more than a Qi-training stage demon.
And now, this tree almost occupies the mountain top, the roots underneath have long occupied the entire mountain.
The arteries of the Earth of the entire world continuously nourish this Divine Tree. Its lush branches and leaves cover the whole mountain like a giant umbrella.
A decade ago, Shen Yuan cleared all the demons on this mountain including the Old Tree Demon.
Shen Yuan wiped out the Demon Spirituality in the tree, leaving only the body of the Spirit Refining Demon as a key element for nurturing the sun and the moon.
Shen Yuan used Zhuming Chengye and the two strands of Qi of Heaven and Earth to nurture the sun and the moon. If outsiders heard this, they would certainly think it was a sheer tall tale.
Even if this place is an island with its own heaven and earth, and its sun and moon are far from the sun and Taiyin star hanging high above the worlds, but its status remains extraordinary.
Even with the help of Nine Breaths Great Magic Power, the gap between Shen Yuan and a complete sun and moon is still vast.
The biggest problem is that the sun and moon need not only the true intent of the sun and moon born from the Qi of the Heaven and earth, but also the complete rules related to the sun and moon.
Moreover, to nurture the sun and moon, a huge source of energy is needed. Draining the mana of a Void Refining True Monarch can’t even achieve it.
But these two major problems in front of Shen Yuan made him find a decisive solution.
One is the complete rules related to the sun and moon.
Shen Yuan is but a mere Qi-training stage cultivator, although he possesses the Fundamental Laws of Refining Elemental Qi, he still couldn’t touch the rules of the sun and moon.
But what Shen Yuan is pursuing is not the sun and moon that illuminates a realm, but the sun and moon that can stabilize the world order, take over the authority of the Dusk Eyes and grasp the root of the Demon’s power.
Under these circumstances, the rules required for the sun and moon are irrelevant to Shen Yuan.
He is employing the Qi of Heaven and Earth to weave rules to fill the core rules of the sun and moon. The void remaining after taking over the authority of the Dusk Eyes and restoring order in this place will guide the sun and moon to self-evolve with the help of this world.
As for the energy required to nurture the sun and moon, Shen Yuan has already focused on this world itself.
With the experience of refining the Demon Spawn by adjusting the Earth’s arteries last time, Shen Yuan realized that the heaviness of mountains carried by Primal Chaos Energy can not only be used against enemies but also utilised to adjust Earth’s arteries with the essence of all things.
In these dozen or so years, he has spent almost all his time adjusting the major arteries of the Earth in this place.
Shen Yuan’s steps have measured every mountain, river and stream that extends from this high mountain. The major Earth arteries within a radius of thousands of miles are secretly modified by Shen Yuan.
