Chapter 182: Lyu Liang’s Gains
Without any hesitation, Lyu Liang nodded and said, “Even if you didn’t ask me, I would also do so. Just as you said, it is better to seal up such a destructive force!”
When he heard what he said, Freedom Immortal Emperor nodded with satisfaction. He twirled his beard as he said, “Alright! Then I’ll pass on the operation methods of the Civilization Mecha and the Core Crystal to you. After the Core Crystal infuses into your Divine Soul, you can operate all the mechas from the seal. But you must keep them within the range of 30 meters from you.”
Then, an angular spheroidal bead appeared in front of Lyu Liang. It shone with a clear cyan light, following which, it dashed into his body and infused with his Divine Soul at once.
A series of incantations and operation methods flowed through Lyu Liang’s Divine Soul. After one and a half hours, he finally exhaled deeply. By then, he had already mastered the Core Crystal and all the intricate operation methods.
As he went wild with joy, Freedom Immortal Emperor’s voice sounded again, “All right, you will have time to celebrate afterwards. That’s what I passed on to you as the master of this space, and now I’ll give you something, as an individual. There’s not much time. Feel it with your heart!”
Lyu Liang looked at Freedom Immortal Emperor subconsciously, and then he cried out in surprise, “Senior! Why is your aura…”
At that moment, Freedom Immortal Emperor did not have a carefree or playful look on his face. Instead, he looked exhausted, and his figure became indistinct, as if it was fading away.
“Ho ho, don’t worry about me. When I transferred the Core Crystal to you, the ultimate seal was also broken. Since my Divided Soul has failed in its mission, there’s no reason for it to exist here anymore. I, Donghuang Chongyang, have never had a disciple, and now this remnant soul had the chance to meet you here! My Five Acts of Heaven Soul can rival the power of a Divine Emperor, and now I’ve passed on that to you. Please use it well!” Weak as his voice was, Freedom Immortal Emperor had a carefree and satisfied look on his face.
Lyu Liang knelt and made three firm kowtows. He wanted to say something like, “Master!”, but he didn’t, because judging by his cultivation, he was not even qualified to be a disciple’s disciple.
Just then, a sense of freshness wafted into Lyu Liang’s Divine Soul, and a new skill of Cultivation Method appeared in his mind. Suddenly, Lyu Liang realized that the real Five Acts of Heaven Soul was the combination of the skill and the five acts!
The Soul Breaking Palm had been powerful enough, but it was much weaker than this new first act!
Then, Freedom Immortal Emperor’s voice sounded again, “The illusion you experienced is not illusory. At least, one of it is real, and that’s your cultivation. Now, let me return it to you.”
Then, a golden cloud emerged and infused into Lyu Liang’s head.
With this surge of fresh aura inside his body, Lyu Liang sat on the ground hastily to perform the Mind Mantra and absorb the Spiritual Qi, which had a familiar feel. Slowly, the feeling of Nature-Human Harmonization came over him, and he lost his awareness gradually.
After some time, he awoke and found that he was still sitting on the ground. But he was surprised to feel that his cultivation had reached the Peak of Almighty Immortal, without the assistance of the Spirit Armor or the Ghost Devil Head! This was precisely the highest level that he had seen in the illusion!
But after a moment of excitement, Lyu Liang felt a sense of sadness. Not far from him, the seat was now vacant, and he could not feel the aura of the open-minded, generous Immortal Emperor anymore.
What he could do was to kneel there, for a long time. Although the time he’d spent with Freedom Immortal Emperor was short, he was truly grateful to this great man!
“Meeting you during his last days, my father felt very relieved. Actually, his biggest wish was to fight the giants, rather than sealing them up, which led to destruction of both sides.” The voice that resembled Shangguan Ying’s sounded, and Lyu Liang looked up slowly.
“Could you please tell me where the other seals are?” Lyu Liang asked, but he did not even know why he was asking her that.
The voice appeared stunned, and then replied, “Another seal in this world has been almost destroyed by your friend. As for the other two, one is in the Central Heaven District of the Pangu Origin world, and the other is in the forbidden area of the Space of Goddess Nyu Wa. These two are guarded by very mighty forces, and you’re still not powerful enough to rival them.”
Lyu Liang nodded, and then he suddenly remembered why he was here. When he was thinking about how to ask the question, he was dazzled when he came to a starry space.
There was another white light flashing and then a silver vessel appeared, with various colors flowing on its surface. Seeing that, Lyu Liang was dazzled by its brightness.
“This is my father’s vehicle, which is called ‘Dreamy Crystal Vessel.’ There are 10 cannons on it, but what’s more powerful is its capacity to move through the void space, and it can go as far as 30 thousand meters. Its defense capacity is also strong. Even if it is attacked by several bombs at the same time, it will remain intact.” Hearing these words, Lyu Liang stared at this vessel, with an amazed look on his face.
“You, you mean that this vessel i-is…” Lyu Liang stammered. Although he couldn’t get the Heaven Prestige Fortress, this vessel would be undoubtedly able to turn the tides of war!
“Yes. This is what my father left to you, but he didn’t have enough time to tell you. You’re free to use it as a vehicle, but you must be careful when you use the 10 cannons, because the bomb of Spiritual Qi is more powerful than an ordinary one. It can produce a shock wave within 30 meters, and its power can rival a fierce blow by an Immortal Emperor. But in the Mortal World, each cannon can only launch one Spiritual Qi bomb.” The voice continued explaining, which gradually settled Lyu Liang down.
Hearing her words, Lyu Liang asked, “Even if I infuse Primordial Qi into them, I still can’t produce a Spiritual Qi bomb?”
That voice laughed faintly before it said, “No. The bomb is made of the Tai-Yang Qi, one of the two kinds of Chaos Qi, and it can’t be generated in the Mortal World or the ordinary Heaven Realm. If you can go to the Space of Goddess Nyu Wa someday, you may be able to find some way to replenish the bombs. Oh yes, if you obtain the opposite Tai-Yang Qi, don’t try to use that to replenish, or the vessel will explode directly. Don’t forget that!”
Lyu Liang nodded. Although these things seemed distant to him, it was wise to keep them in mind.
Then, he clutched at the void space, and said, “Thank you for you kindness! Then I’ll take it!”
“Just take it and gather your friends. As for how to depart from here, you’ll know it, as the new master of this seal.” The voice was calm, yet had a hint of loneliness.
Lyu Liang nodded, and then he stimulated his Divine Sense to cover the Dreamy Crystal Vessel inside it. After a moment, he smiled joyfully. He had mastered the operation methods of this vessel, but he was surprised to find that only six of the 10 cannons were loaded with bombs of Spiritual Qi.
However, Lyu Liang didn’t care too much about it. After all, it had already been his great fortune to obtain such a treasure, which could get him out of here.
And according to the instruction of the Core Crystal in his Divine Soul, he could leave this seal at any time, and he could choose his destination freely, as long as it was within the scope of 300 meters.
Lyu Liang thanked the voice again, and when he was about to leave, he paused and asked softly, “Could you please tell me your name? I’m grateful to Freedom Immortal Emperor, and you’re his daughter. If you need any help, please tell me, and I’ll try my best to help you.”
That voice hesitated, and after a while, she said slowly, “You’ve done a good job. I just hope that you won’t forget why you started…” Then, the voice stopped.
“You haven’t told me your name. Could you please…” Lyu Liang didn’t finish his sentence, waiting for the response.
But half an hour passed, and the voice remained silent, as if it had disappeared. Lyu Liang sighed, and cupped his hands at the void space, before he left slowly.
About another half an hour later, there was no one left in the fortress. With a deep, sorrowful sigh, the voice whispered, “Donghuang Ying…”
…………………………
Almost at the same time, in another space of the seal, the figure of the bewitching, cyan-robed man became indistinct. But just like Freedom Immortal Emperor, he didn’t feel any pain, only relief.
“Master! Master! What’s the matter?!” Liu Jiawen asked in surprise, as she looked anxiously at the man, who looked as if he might disappear at any time.
“Ho ho, I’ve just passed on something to you, and you’re still addressing me as ‘master’. You’re such a sweet girl. All right, you may have guessed the reason. Your companion has become the new master of this seal, and it’s time for us old guys to give way! It’s good. You don’t know how boring it is in this desolate place!” The man laughed brightly, as if he was delighted to disappear from this world.
Then, the man stared at Liu Jiawen, who was biting her lips, with tears in her eyes. His eyes were gentle as he said softly, “Time’s up. I have to go now. If you meet that smart boy of the Fang family, please remember to give him the thing I entrusted to you.” After saying that, his figure became vague, and then, it vanished into the darkness.
…………………………
At the same time, in the Space of Goddess Nyu Wa, a graceful girl, dressed in yellow, was frowning, in the main hall of the Han family. With a concerned look on her face, she was saying something to a black-robed, red-haired old man.
“Grandpa, shortly after my Ten Spirit Servers disappeared, this half tablet also cracked. Could it be that the guy you thought so highly of, has broken the seal?”
“Ho ho, Jing, don’t panic. It’s just a seal. Not a big deal. Since that guy broke through your Ten Spirit Servers, I’ve known that the seal is doomed. Probably, the other half of the tablet has also cracked.”
“Grandpa! Isn’t the seal…”
“Jing, you don’t know much about this. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, and what we need to do is to wait and see. Sometimes, it’s difficult to tell right from wrong. I’ve known about it, and I’ll discuss with the old guy of the Fang family later.”
Then, the red-haired began sipping his tea leisurely, showing no concern at all. With pouted lips, the girl in the yellow dress left, in confusion and resignation.
When she got out of the hall, she was grasped by a little girl, who was also wearing a yellow dress, who had jumped out from somewhere. Judging by her appearance, the little girl seemed to be merely six or seven years old, and she was as lovely and delicate as a china doll.
“Sister! I’ve told you! Grandpa wouldn’t care about what you said! After all, he didn’t care about that tablet at all. But I’ve leveled up my Talisman Mental Method, and I’ve also helped you do that. So now, we can go to the Mortal World! Don’t you think that I’m a genius?” The little girl smiled proudly, showing her lovely dimples.
Hearing her words, the girl in the yellow dress, tweaked the little girl’s nose and said with a laugh, “Yes, Tangtang is so clever and invincible! Humph, now that grandpa praised that guy so highly, let me see what kind of person he is!”
The little girl said joyfully, “Yes, yes! My Fifteen Spirit Servers have also been destroyed, but the seal seems to be intact. Let’s go and see! If we can stop the guy from breaking the seal, we don’t need to go down so covertly in the future!”
Talking and laughing, the two soon disappeared into the architectural complex ahead.
Inside the hall, the red-haired old man put down his cup. With a wry laugh, he shook his head and said to the void space, “Did you hear that?” The two trouble makers of the Han family were about to go to the Mortal World, but he couldn’t stop them at all. Alas, they were so lively and causing so much worry!
Then, a fit of silvery laughter sounded, “Ho ho, doesn’t my silly boy like Han Jing? Now that he is qualified to go to the Mortal World, I can just let him take care of the two girls. That way, you don’t need to worry about them!”
Rolling his eyes, the red-haired old man clapped his hands and said with a laugh, “You’re creating opportunities for your boy! All right, Jing also seems to like him. But your boy is so shy. If he could be a 10th as brave as he is in the war, they would have been together! It’s a good idea. Just let him look after my girls!”
