Chapter 1181: Resentment
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler was full of resentment for Luo Yunyang!
Even the significant contributions made by Luo Yunyang to the Human Race and Tianding Realm were not enough to stop the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler from hating him!
The reason for his hatred was that Luo Yunyang had bestowed the Sky Wielding Crystal unto Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky rather than him previously.
Seeing Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky advance and become Divine Ancestor Flowing Sky had further cemented his hatred for Luo Yunyang.
That was why he was bent on making things difficult for Luo Yunyang during the speech. His opportunity came when he heard Luo Yunyang’s opening sentence. He was going to use his strongest move to get to him.
“Human Ruler, we are not sophisticated enough for this talk either. Farewell!” A few other Taichu Yuan Venerates who were followers of the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler stood up and left as well.
A number of Taichu Yuan Venerates from major families of the Tianding Realm followed them. While they had never been given explicit instructions by the elders of their families, the words of the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler represented their own clans’ decisions.
Naturally, they would leave with the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler!
They were not going to listen!
Luo Yunyang watched the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler depart with an indifferent look in his eyes. It was laughable that people were openly indicating their disinterest in the topic when he was going to impart everything he had learned from the Vast Sky Sacred Realm at no cost.
“Anyone else who wishes to leave with the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler may do so right now!” Luo Yunyang said callously as he watched the leaving martialists, who seemed as though they were going to break into laughter.
The Southwest Heavenly Ruler and his followers stood up as well. While he may have been interested in Luo Yunyang’s insight, he felt that his ties to the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler were more important.
“Farewell, Human Ruler!”
The actions of the five Heavenly Rulers seemed to dictate the actions of the entire Tianding Realm! Even some of the Taichu Yuan Venerates of the Dongfang Family started getting up.
The families of the six Heavenly Rulers of Tianding Realm were connected by marriage. Many of these ties and connections were thus often stronger than even family relations.
Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky remained seated and calm. He was not going to say anything. The argument between Luo Yunyang and his younger brothers was a show one had to watch. It did not matter who won or lost.
“Everyone, how can someone who never became a Taiyi Yuan Venerate even attempt to speak about the cultivation path to becoming a Taiyi Yuan Venerate?”
“Instead of staying here and sitting like his students, why don’t you follow me and gather in the better world, where we ourselves will forge our own path to the Taiyi Yuan Venerate?” the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler asked the martialists present just before departing.
The words of the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler roused many hearts.
After all, one of the six Heavenly Rulers was already a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate.
Although one had to rely on a Sky Wielding Crystal to become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate, they felt that getting insight from the six joined Heavenly Rulers was an equally rare opportunity.
In an instant, one-third of the returnee martialists present stood up as well.
The Southwest Heavenly Emperor kept his eyes on Luo Yunyang and noticed that Luo Yunyang was exceptionally calm. It seemed as though everything unfolding before him had nothing to do with him.
Luo Yunyang did not seem to care about the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler stirring trouble, nor did he care about the increasing number of martialists who were leaving.
His actions puzzled the Southwest Heavenly Emperor. Did Luo Yunyang really have a way to become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate?
The number of Taichu Yuan Venerates was down by half, and just a few moments after, the total number of Taichu Yuan Venerates was down to one-third of the original number.
While Luo Yunyang showed no anxiety, the Da Qian Hall Master’s expression was fluctuating. He was unyieldingly loyal to Luo Yunyang. However, he felt greatly for Luo Yunyang when he saw the poor response to him.
Unfortunately, he was limited by his cultivation base and was unable to do anything.
The Flame Emperor and Lu Qubing were extremely close to Luo Yunyang. “Yunyang, should we make any changes given the current situation?” the Flame Emperor asked as he observed the situation.
“It is alright. Let those who want to stay do so. Those who want to leave may do so as well!” Luo Yunyang said while looking at the Taichu Yuan Venerates who were leaving.
Although the Flame Emperor wanted to give him further advice, he realized that it did not seem like the best time to do so.
Eventually, the crowd was reduced to less than one-third of the original crowd and the remaining people were sparsely seated all over the field.
“Leaving this place will be their greatest regret. The remainder of you who chose to stay will find out eventually that this is the best choice you have ever made in your life,” Luo Yunyang said, addressing the remaining people.
The Flame Emperor really wanted to advise Luo Yunyang against addressing these people so politely when he heard this.
However, he had no idea why Luo Yunyang was so polite. Later, he was going to share how he had managed to acquire the cultivation path to becoming a Taiyi Yuan Venerate in the Vast Sky Sacred Realm.
These cultivation techniques were not readily accessible at any moment. However, to help combat the impending calamity the Human Race would face, Luo Yunyang had been kind enough to provide these cultivation techniques for free. The Flame Emperor would not have done the same in Luo Yunyang’s shoes or asked him to do the same.
Luo Yunyang had given everyone the opportunity to stay and the freedom to leave if they wanted to.
Nobody else left the field, as all those who considered Luo Yunyang a fraudulent cheater had already left. Those who remained sincerely believed in what he had to say.
The Flame Emperor felt a sense of relief after seeing that nobody else intended to leave. “Enough with the chit chat. It is not early anymore. Let us start from the beginning,” Luo Yunyang said.
“The Taiyi Yuan Venerate is a blockade that stops countless talented people from advancing. From this aspect, it seems as though one can only become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate by using the Sky Wielding Crystal.”
“However, I would like to add that the Sky Wielding Crystal is not a good treasure. If you just rely on it alone to become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate, you will have to pay a heavy price.”
Divine Ancestor Flowing Sky started to look uncomfortable. He was the only one amongst the crowd who was a Taiyi Yuan Venerate. Furthermore, he had relied on the Sky Wielding Crystal bestowed by Luo Yunyang to become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate.
Although he was uncomfortable, Divine Ancestor Flowing Sky kept this to himself and said nothing. After all, he had his own worries about Luo Yunyang’s current cultivation base,
“How should we become Taiyi Yuan Venerates without relying on the Sky Wielding Crystal? By using our cultivation bases, of course! That is the wrong turn that is preventing many geniuses just like you from breaking through. Or rather, one could say that all of us have taken the wrong turn right from the beginning of our cultivation journey.”
“When we make such a mistake, how should we...”
The Taichu Yuan Venerates who were listening had solemn looks on their faces. Some people even began to activate their own methods as Luo Yunyang pointed out their mistakes.
As unbelievable as Luo Yunyang’s words were, the martialists at the Taichu Yuan Venerate were all smart people. After analyzing and digesting what he had said, they fully agreed with him.
Yuan Zi had the best aptitude and foundation among them. Thus, he understood best what Luo Yunyang was saying. However, he was using his might to suppress and prevent a breakthrough.
It wasn’t just Yuan Zi. Even the Golden Deity was suppressing his cultivation. Although they wanted to break through, they knew very well that it would not be the best choice for them to immediately go for a breakthrough.
The faster they broke through, the less they would absorb Luo Yunyang’s speech, which would cause their future developments to be stunted as well.
Yuan Zi and the rest were able to resist the temptation. However, when Luo Yunyang reached the part about the finest cultivation techniques he had acquired in the Vast Sky Sacred Realm, some martialists could not withstand the temptation any further.
One of them was Yuan Venerate Mingxin!
“Ha ha ha! I understand! I finally understand!” Yuan Venerate Mingxin shouted gleefully as a Sky Law rushed up from within him and enveloped the boundless sky and land.
He was a Taiyi Yuan Venerate! He was floating in the sky above now that he had finally attained the Taiyi Yuan Venerate and could destroy the sky around him if he wanted to.
The energy exuded from Yuan Venerate Mingxin made Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky extremely uncomfortable. Although he too fully understood the speech given by Luo Yunyang, he was greatly limited by the Sky Wielding Crystal he had used previously.
Upon seeing someone so insignificant surpass him in just a moment, Divine Ancestor Flowing Sky felt very depressed.
As soon as Yuan Venerate Mingxin shouted, seven to eight more Taichu Yuan Venerates screamed out loud joyously as well.
Although they were also aware of the consequences of breaking through so quickly, they could not resist the temptation of advancing straight from the Taichu Yuan Venerate to the Taiyi Yuan Venerate.
This breakthrough caused them to improve their cultivation vastly and even allowed them to control major laws and develop their nature.
Millions and millions of miles away in Tianding Realm, the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler and a few of the best martialists who had followed him were busy trying to find ways to break through and become Taiyi Yuan Venerates.
Each of them had their own understanding of things, which made their exchange of pointers easy and beneficial for everyone.
However, it was just impossible for them to become Taiyi Yuan Venerates.
While the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler and the rest were talking, they sensed a boundless aura.
It was the aura of a Taiyi Yuan Venerate!
Had somebody become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate?
“That should be the aura of Senior Brother Flowing Sky. Other than him...” the Mysterious Water Heavenly Ruler laughed as he spoke.
While they were laughing and chatting, new auras began popping out.
