Chapter 772 The Principles of the Five Elements and the Transformation of Yin and Yang

Boom!

The moment his two avatars broke through simultaneously, Li Yuan felt a slight stirring in his heart and returned his mind to the Dharma Realm.

Within Yuanshi City, celestial light flowed upwards like a waterfall, reaching the highest point of the sky. Within this celestial light, a sword lotus slowly rotated, and on its pure white platform, lotus seeds emitted dazzling light.

However, the breakthrough of the Sword Lotus Body was fed back to the Sword Lotus Main Body.

At the same time, within the shadows of Yuanshi City, the Yuanying Pure Yang Tree trembled slightly, moving with the shadows and spreading towards Yuanshi Mountain, and even into the shadows of the entire Dharma Realm.

"what?"

Li Yuan felt a slight stirring in his heart and focused his mind to perceive.

He could only sense that the Yuan Ying Pure Yang Tree under the shadow was growing and expanding at a speed that surprised even him.

"This is... the Shadow Demon Realm?"

Li Yuan was somewhat surprised, and then stepped into the shadow of the Dharma Realm.

The shadows were vast and boundless, almost equal to his Dharma realm, but extremely desolate and dilapidated, like an ancient battlefield destroyed over countless years.

Amidst the desolation, the Yuan Ying Chun Yang Tree stands like a pillar of heaven, its lush foliage even surpassing that of the Xuan Teng mother tree, and it is still expanding rapidly.

"That's interesting."

With a quick calculation, Li Yuan, with his current mastery of the Azure Emperor's teachings, instantly knew the changes in the Yuan Ying Pure Yang Tree and the reasons behind them.

The changes in this tree are partly due to the breakthrough of the Shadow Demon Body and the foundation accumulated over the years, but mostly due to the Yuan Ying Pure Yang Tree itself!

Or perhaps, they came from those Yuan Ying Realm cultivators who sacrificed themselves to the tree in the past in order to obtain pure Yang energy!
Although these Yuanying cultivators have long since vanished into the annals of time, their obsession with Pure Yang, and even the slightest remnants of it, still exist within the Yuanying Pure Yang Tree.

They were all lured out by the Shadow Demon at this moment.

"Pure Yin energy, not tainted by even a trace of Yang..."

Li Yuan walked slowly to the Yuan Ying Pure Yang Tree, watching the surging Yin energy within the shadows. In a flash, he had already planned how to use this Yin energy:
"Perhaps, we can use this Yuanying Pure Yang Tree as a starting point to create a Shadow Demon Realm within its shadow..."

"boom!"

As soon as Li Yuan had a thought, the entire Dharma Realm responded in unison.

"Ang~"

A dragon's roar resounded throughout the universe as the Candle Dragon crossed the sky and landed on the Yuan Ying Chun Yang Tree.

Then, the immense power originating from the Dharma realm caused the Pure Yang Tree to tremble violently and expand at a speed dozens or even hundreds of times greater than before.

In just a few breaths, the shadow had transformed into a Shadow Demon Realm centered on the Yuan Ying Pure Yang Tree!
"boom!"

Li Yuan heard the joy of the Dharma Realm.

It was as if a five-realm strange land had been suddenly swallowed up, and the foundation of the Dharma Realm instantly increased by a huge margin!

"This is a pleasant surprise..."

After concentrating on sensing the changes within himself, Li Yuan began to survey the Shadow Demon Realm beneath the shadows.

Beneath the Pure Yang Tree lies a vast lake spanning thousands of miles, filled with Shadow Demon Water capable of corroding the Dharma Realm and even the Dharma Heaven.

Apart from that, this realm is completely empty.

But Li Yuan was truly satisfied.

This realm and the Dharma realm are like the two sides of Yin and Yang. Although its weight is far less than that of the Primordial Realm, it makes the Dharma realm more and more perfect.

"With the Shadow Demon Realm and the Dharma Realm complementing each other, it is much more secure."

Li Yuan's eyes were very bright.

Although the Shadow Demon Realm is far less substantial than the Dharma Realm itself at this moment, with the Shadow Demons present, it will surely grow rapidly by exploring the Hidden Corridor.

Even the malevolent filth that devours the strange lands can all be gathered here to strengthen the Shadow Demon Lake! After patrolling the Shadow Demon Realm, Li Yuan returned to Yuanshi Mountain.

The sword lotus continued to spin in the air, and the light emitted by the lotus seeds on the lotus platform became increasingly dazzling. After a long time, the seeds rolled down one by one and took root on the ground.

In just a moment, it had transformed into a lotus pond outside Yuanshi City!

"This sword lotus..."

Li Yuan walked to the lotus pond, feeling the sword intent contained within it, and nodded slightly.

The transformation of the Yuanying Pure Yang Tree was largely due to the sacrifice of the Yuanying cultivators in the past, while the transformation of the Sword Lotus originated from the great herb itself.

The Great Medicine is born of Heaven and Earth, containing all kinds of laws and principles. In terms of origin, it is far superior to the Pure Yang Tree.

Even the mystic vine cannot compare to it.

At this moment, as Li Yuan focused his mind, he could faintly sense the sword intent flowing and converging in the pool, and a small but already nascent sword realm was slowly growing stronger.

"The Dharma Realm has a deeper foundation."

Feeling the growth of his own power, Li Yuan felt happy: "Although the cultivation of avatars is complicated, it can nourish oneself and strengthen one's foundation."

"Unfortunately, the Primordial Five Extremes Dao doesn't have many incarnation methods. However, the Ten Directions Annihilation Dao cultivated by Senior Brother Fufa is said to require ten incarnations to reach its full potential..."

"I wonder how many incarnations Brother Fufa has cultivated?"

Li Yuan couldn't help but think of the Floating Dharma Master.

He created an avatar using the orthodox method of incarnation, the strength of which depends entirely on his own cultivation. However, the incarnation method of the Ten Directions Extinction Path is different.

The ten directions of the body gather and the ten paths of destruction, but there is a 40% chance of merging with the Dao.

"I wonder where Brother Fufa is now?"

After a long while, Li Yuan collected his thoughts and began to take stock of the listening sounds that he hadn't had time to attend to during his breakthrough.

However, there was no sound related to the Floating Dharma Master.

"But this law is unforgiving..."

Li Yuan looked at the Listening Wooden Talisman and frowned inwardly.

The listening may seem chaotic, but in reality, most of what he hears is related to his thoughts, observations, and experiences. This is the listening pattern he has summarized.

But this law is unforgivable. He clearly only watched one battle and didn't care much, but in the years of listening, there have been listening messages related to it from time to time.

Their numbers far exceed those of their fellow disciples at Dongxuan Mountain...

"However, this Fa Wushe is a vicious person."

Li Yuan squinted as he gathered up the information about the lawless law.

Each year, the Heavenly Martial Arts Competition invites outstanding talents from all realms to participate. Fa Wushe, Feng Qingcang, and others naturally participated in this competition as well, and were very active.

In the first year of the martial arts competition, Fa Wushe overcame the Dao Tribulation, raised the Dharma Heaven, and achieved the body of a demigod. Afterwards, he killed a large number of cultivators from the Three Saints Sect, and his reputation was even listed in the law net.

"However, it is still not as good as the Nine Extremes Heaven."

Li Yuan glanced at the Listening Wooden Talisman. Fu Jiu Dao Ren had killed two eighth-realm cultivators from the Three Saints Sect, earning him a fearsome reputation and even attracting the pursuit of tenth-realm cultivators.

"A cultivator at the tenth realm."

Li Yuan memorized all the sounds he heard and then turned to sense his two avatars.

After breaking through to the Sword Lotus Body, he returned to Lingmiao Island, surrounded by a group of cultivators from the Three Saints Sect, while the Shadow Demon Body remained dormant in the Sin Realm.

"Now that the Five Realms are complete, it's time to explore the Realm of Sin!"

Inside the clinic in Black Mountain City, Li Yuan reclined on a rocking chair, watching the turbulent events unfold, but his mind was already focused on the Shadow Demon.
