Chapter 1287: Heavenly Venerable Statue

Although Yi Tianyun wanted to say that he could handle it, Domain Lord Liuli dragged him along and destroyed the rubble on the side, making it an easy task.

So, he didn’t say much, letting Domain Lord Liuli lead the way.

After traversing through one area of rubble after another, a special forbidden space appeared before them. This area had no rubble, but dense piles of stones surrounded and enclosed this forbidden space.

There were so many stones here, several times more than outside, forming a thick wall that blocked the outside.

“Break it for me!”

Domain Lord Liuli charged forward, swung his hand fiercely, and crushed the stones in front into powder. They immediately dashed inside.

After they disappeared, the rubble around them filled back up, returning to its original state in the blink of an eye.

Once inside, Yi Tianyun immediately felt like he was in a special space with no energy flow around, everything was so calm, as if he had entered an empty void.

If it weren’t for the enormous statue in front of him, he would have thought he was in the wrong place. Right ahead stood a massive statue, as huge as a planet. The statue sat in a meditative posture, floating in the void.

Circles of energy surrounded the statue, making it look very sacred.

“Such a huge statue, why is it here…”

Yi Tianyun was shocked by the sight of the giant statue, wondering who had built such a massive figure there.

The statue’s face was indistinguishable; looking up for too long made his eyes feel like they were going blind. He quickly lowered his head, not daring to continue looking at the statue.

“The statue’s appearance is unclear, the energy is too strong.” Yi Tianyun was internally surprised and deeply shaken.

It wasn’t just like staring at a statue, but like confronting a Heavenly Venerable! Although he had fought against two gods, he had never faced them head-on, especially the power this statue exuded, far beyond the Evil Spirit Domain Lord.

It felt several levels stronger than the Evil Spirit Domain Lord! It was likely the statue of an Upper Heavenly Venerable, otherwise it wouldn’t be so dazzling.

“It seems your progress isn’t small, you can look at the Heavenly Venerable Statue for a few moments.” Domain Lord Liuli, standing beside him, also didn’t dare to look much, keeping his head down.

“It’s okay, but I can’t look for too long, the majesty is too strong. I wonder why the statue is here and so huge.” Yi Tianyun shook his head, unable to fully see the statue, only its body, not its face.

“This is the Heavenly Venerable Statue, rumored to be where an Upper Heavenly Venerable sat and turned into this giant statue.” Domain Lord Liuli explained.

“An Upper Heavenly Venerable sat here?” Yi Tianyun was puzzled, “At the level of an Upper Heavenly Venerable, their lifespan should be extremely long, if not immortal, at least they should live for a long time, right?”

“Nothing is absolute, even a Heavenly Venerable has their own difficulties.” Domain Lord Liuli explained, “Moreover, it’s just a rumor, who knows if an Upper Heavenly Venerable really sat here?”

“This statue is like a giant tower, the higher you climb, the more benefits you gain. But this statue isn’t easy to climb. I brought you here to give you some insight, so you can break through faster, but we won’t climb up this time.” Domain Lord Liuli said while flying forward with him.

Yi Tianyun saw many cultivators flying towards the entrance. The entrance to the statue was at the leg of the sitting Heavenly Venerable Statue, with a medium-sized opening.

“These strong people coming here have quite high cultivation…”

Yi Tianyun observed the surrounding cultivators, all above the Heaven Monarch level. Some were lone wanderers with cultivation at the God Monarch level six or seven, or even higher; others were like Domain Lord Liuli, strong cultivators bringing several Heaven Monarchs with them.

They didn’t fight each other, all flew inside, their goal being to comprehend the power of the Heavenly Venerable or climb higher.

Without conflicts of interest, they naturally wouldn’t fight.

“Yes, many cultivators come here, generally without conflict. Unless you provoke someone, there won’t be any problems.”

Domain Lord Liuli landed at the entrance, a large gate-like opening about ten zhang high, the only entrance visible, possibly with other exits that could teleport them out.

Following Domain Lord Liuli, Yi Tianyun felt the thick power of the Heavenly Venerable permeating the place. This power didn’t extend beyond the entrance, firmly locked inside.

“The power of the Heavenly Venerable isn’t very dense here.” Yi Tianyun remarked.

“Of course, the higher you go, the denser the power of the Heavenly Venerable. You can’t compare it to the previous situation on the Heavenly Venerable Path. Allowing cultivators to enter freely here is already good. For denser power, you must climb higher.”

Domain Lord Liuli explained, pointing to a hole above. It’s simple to go higher, just fly through the hole, no stairs needed.

Yi Tianyun nodded, realizing this. He had thought the density was disappointing at first. But this was just the first level; having any effect was already good.

On the first level, many Heaven Monarchs were meditating, some alone, some in groups.

The space was very spacious, enough for sitting or even lying down.

Their arrival only drew a few glances; the rest ignored them. People entered to cultivate all the time, if everyone looked up every time, no one could cultivate.

Yi Tianyun noticed that cultivators wore special masks, unwilling to show their true faces, a hidden rule here.

“It seems this is a good place for cultivation…” Yi Tianyun looked up, more interested in the higher levels.

“Let’s go down.”

Domain Lord Liuli led Yi Tianyun downwards, casually finding an open space to sit and meditate.

“Adapt here for a while before flying to the second level,” Domain Lord Liuli said. “You’ve sensed this before, so a little familiarity will allow you to go up. To grasp it better, stay here a bit longer.”

She sat down beside him, not in a hurry. After all, she had plenty of time.

Yi Tianyun nodded, suddenly thinking of something, and asked, “Have the elders been here before?”

“They’ve all been here, often bringing talented disciples to cultivate. Only the more outstanding disciples are brought here; otherwise, they can’t comprehend anything,” Domain Lord Liuli explained.

Yi Tianyun had thought he was the only one brought here, but it turned out that other elders had been here too. It made sense, as it wasn’t a big secret; the elders knowing was normal.

He didn’t say more, closing his eyes to start comprehending, absorbing the Heavenly Venerable power around him. The Heavenly Venerable power was quite similar, with no significant differences.

Thus, absorbing the Heavenly Venerable power of the Vast Heaven Venerable didn’t conflict with the Heavenly Venerable power here. It was freely absorbed to enhance one’s understanding.

This Heavenly Venerable power couldn’t increase cultivation levels; it was about comprehending realms. Heavenly Venerable power couldn’t be absorbed as one’s own energy.

The gap between the two was too large to be absorbed for cultivation. That’s why only outstanding disciples were brought here. Average Heaven Monarch disciples would gain nothing from sitting here all day.

Under careful comprehension, Yi Tianyun quickly sensed a unique energy within the Heavenly Venerable power!

“It’s Illusory Metal Power…” Yi Tianyun immediately awakened from his comprehension, having sensed a special power from the Heavenly Venerable power—Illusory Metal Power.

Illusory Metal Power is essentially Metal Power but at a more advanced level. Many attributes evolve from the Five Elements, reaching a higher state.

Illusory Metal Power is one such example, with far greater destructive power than ordinary Metal Power.

Although Heavenly Venerable power is the same, it carries the owner’s energy, making it different. Here, people comprehend Illusory Metal Power!

It’s not about absorbing Illusory Metal Power but feeling its sharp aura to transform it into one’s strength, honing oneself to be sharper.

“You comprehended it so quickly?” Domain Lord Liuli was deeply shocked. She hadn’t expected Yi Tianyun to comprehend so fast, almost immediately.

It seemed like he’d been here before; otherwise, how would he know that Heavenly Venerable power contained Illusory Metal Power? It required very subtle comprehension.

Yet, Yi Tianyun comprehended it quickly, surpassing their initial speed, making even Domain Lord Liuli feel inferior.

“Yes, I’ve comprehended it. Why would I lie to you?” Yi Tianyun shrugged helplessly. It wasn’t difficult; he had already comprehended Heavenly Venerable power, making it easier here.

Domain Lord Liuli looked skeptical: “Don’t lie to me, or the second level will be hard for you to cultivate, and you won’t be able to continue.”

“Domain Lord, isn’t that a bit distrustful? What benefit do I get from lying to you?” Yi Tianyun felt helpless, still not trusted.

“Well… I just think it’s too fast, a bit exaggerated,” Domain Lord Liuli coughed lightly. “I believe you now. Considering you’ve completed the Heavenly Venerable Path, it’s not an issue to sense it here.”

“Yes, this place is much weaker than the Heavenly Venerable Path. If I can’t sense this, how could I complete the Heavenly Venerable Path?” Yi Tianyun was exasperated. It was fast, but he had a foundation.

Without the foundation, it would have taken him longer to succeed.

Domain Lord Liuli smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the topic: “I was overthinking. Let’s head to the second level now, it’s much more effective than here.”

She led the way upwards, and Yi Tianyun followed without saying much. Others also flew upwards, those who comprehended Illusory Metal Power could proceed to the second level.

They quickly entered the second level, which was similar to the first, empty with no objects. Only a space for comprehension.

On entering, the Heavenly Venerable power here was several times denser than below. As soon as Yi Tianyun arrived, the surrounding power surged into him.

The sharp Illusory Metal Power flooded in, and Yi Tianyun quickly transformed it, softening it to avoid harm.

“Ahhh…”

A scream came from the side, as newly arrived Heaven Monarchs fell like meteors. Golden rays shot out of their bodies, causing severe injuries even if they survived.

The Illusory Metal Power, if not absorbed smoothly, would rush out, harming the cultivators.

This was why Domain Lord Liuli stressed the need for comprehension; otherwise, newcomers would be pierced by the Illusory Metal Power.

Domain Lord Liuli looked over anxiously, seeing Yi Tianyun unharmed.

“I told you, I already comprehended it…” Yi Tianyun spread his hands, showing that Domain Lord Liuli’s concern was unnecessary.

Some pretended to understand, unwilling to drag their team down or wanting to keep up, falsely claiming comprehension.

Now it was clear; they not only dragged down their team but harmed them.

Being strong-headed here was unwise.

“Continue to comprehend here. If you can keep comprehending, you can go up continuously!” Domain Lord Liuli’s eyes sparkled with excitement. “Your talent is truly astonishing. Bringing you here was the right choice!”

Other disciples of the Heavenly Spring Divine Realm were envious of Yi Tianyun’s honor. Domain Lord Liuli, usually busy, wouldn’t personally bring disciples.

Yi Tianyun received this honor due to his outstanding performance.
