The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

Lu Yao was in high spirits after gaining a large amount of World Origin, and he didn't care about Zhong Ling's escape.

Zuo Zimu and the others standing to the side did not dare to act rashly, for fear of angering Lu Yao, the god of death.

In Zuo Zimu's eyes, Lu Yao was a true reclusive master whose martial arts skills were simply unfathomable.

Lu Yao ignored the horses and leaped into the air, leaving Sword Lake Palace.

In the original novel, Duan Yu fell off a cliff on his way to Wanchou Valley and unexpectedly found Langhuan Paradise, where he obtained the ultimate martial arts of the Xiaoyao Sect.

Lu Yao descended the mountain towards Wanchou Valley and soon found the cliff where Duan Yu was believed to have fallen.

A clear stream flowed down from the mountain ravine, forming a waterfall. The water plunged directly down the cliff, its depths unfathomable.

Such a treacherous cliff would naturally be avoided by anyone, and only Duan Yu, as the chosen one, would have such privileges.

After carefully examining the area for a few moments, Lu Yao leaped off the cliff and disappeared into the mist.

At the bottom of the cliff, Lu Yao stood on the water, looking up.

This cliff is at least fifty meters high, and with the surrounding moisture, it appears even more abyss-like, and ordinary people would never dare to come down.

Lu Yao attached his true energy to his feet and walked on the water toward the cave at the bottom of the cliff.

The cave was obscured by several huge rocks. If Lu Yao hadn't known that this was the Langhuan Paradise, he might have really overlooked it.

With a flick of his sleeve, Lu Yao opened the stone door with a burst of true energy.

Stepping through the stone gate, Lu Yao was greeted by a stone chamber brimming with life, complete with a stone bed and a stone table.

Lu Yao picked up a wooden comb from a stone platform. It was covered in dust and had long been decayed due to the passage of time.

No longer paying attention to these ordinary things, Lu Yao directly opened another stone door in the stone chamber.

Lu Yao walked inside and saw a lifelike female statue, as white as jade.

"This is the fairy sister Duan Yu was talking about? She's quite ordinary."

Lu Yao looked at the statue. Although it was exquisitely carved, he still couldn't understand why Duan Yu would be infatuated with a statue.

Lu Yao turned to look at the stone wall next to him, which was engraved with the words "Xiaoyaozi's letter to Qiushui Mei". It was a love letter written by Xiaoyaozi, the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, to Li Qiushui.

Finally, looking at the eight characters "kowtow a thousand times, serve me at my command," Lu Yao curled his lip.

With a sudden burst of internal force, the futon placed in front of the statue shattered into pieces, and a scroll wrapped in a brocade handkerchief was grabbed by Lu Yao.

"As expected, it is the Northern Darkness Divine Art and the Lingbo Steps."

Lu Yao opened the book and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Lu Yao then began to study the Northern Darkness Divine Art and started practicing it.

As Lu Yao continued to circulate the inner workings of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, finally, on the morning of three days later, a wisp of Northern Darkness True Qi was guided into his dantian.

Lu Yao took a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes.

The Northern Darkness Divine Skill, as the strongest martial art of the Free and Unfettered Sect, is far more exquisite than the Innate Skill. In fact, the Northern Darkness Divine Skill has no upper limit in theory.

However, the Northern Darkness Divine Art has no upper limit, but people do have an upper limit.

The most amazing thing about the Beiming Divine Art is that it can absorb the opponent's true energy and turn it into its own, which can be said to be quite unreasonable.

However, a cultivator's dantian cannot hold an infinite amount of Northern Darkness True Qi. The limit for an ordinary person is that they can absorb True Qi for a hundred years at most.

But that refers to ordinary people. Lu Yao is not among them. With the Haotian Pearl, Lu Yao can use the world's origin to strengthen his dantian separately.

As long as Lu Yao's world has enough origin, it can theoretically contain true energy that has lasted for thousands or even tens of thousands of years.

Now that he had mastered the basics of the Northern Darkness Divine Art, there was no need to practice it any further, so Lu Yao began to cultivate the Lingbo Weibu (Lingbo Steps).

Lingbo Weibu is a movement technique that incorporates the changes of the I Ching. When executed, it is as ghostly as a ghost and its movements are elusive.

Both martial arts are divine skills of the Xiaoyao Sect, and are almost the top martial arts in the Tianlong world.

The Lingbo Weibu technique was easier to learn than the Beiming Divine Skill, and Lu Yao mastered it in just one day.

"Haotian Pearl! Enhance it!"

Lu Yao gave a soft shout in his heart, and a milky white fluorescent light flickered, enveloping Lu Yao.

After a while.

Lu Yao slowly opened his eyes, and a faint blue light flashed by.

Origin of the World: 1643→612

The Northern Darkness Divine Art consumed over six hundred units of world essence, while the Lingbo Steps only consumed over four hundred.

The extraordinary nature of the Northern Darkness Divine Art can be seen from its consumption of the world's origin.

Now, Lu Yao has easily reached the peak of the Innate Realm with the help of the Northern Darkness Divine Art. This means that Lu Yao has a stronger control over his true qi, and the quality of his true qi is also higher.

The difference between the innate realm lies in the control and quality of true qi, which is the most intuitive criterion for judgment.

Of course, this is just a realm. Lu Yao's Northern Darkness True Qi is still very little. His true combat strength is only invincible below the early stage of the Innate Realm.

Now, the innate true qi in Lu Yao's dantian has been completely absorbed by the Northern Darkness true qi and has become nourishment.

Lu Yao's internal energy has reached the level of fifty years.

It would be impossible for Lu Yao to cultivate on his own; it would be much faster to absorb other people's cultivation methods directly. Lu Yao had no desire to cultivate on his own.

Lu Yao's dantian can hold about a hundred years' worth of true energy. If he continues to absorb more than that, it will only dissipate on its own and will not improve his strength.

Since his dantian wasn't full of true qi yet, Lu Yao wasn't in a hurry to use the world's origin to strengthen it.

Lu Yao shifted his position, leaving a trail of afterimages in his wake, constantly changing locations and becoming unpredictable.

"This Lingbo Weibu is indeed powerful."

Lu Yao nodded, quite satisfied with the perfected Lingbo Weibu technique.

These two martial arts are now Lu Yao's strongest skills; the Innate Skill and other martial arts he learned in the Condor Heroes world are now obsolete.

After all, the upper limit of martial arts in the world of Condor Heroes is limited. For example, even though they all use the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, Guo Jing is not even worthy of carrying Qiao Feng's shoes. The martial arts names and moves are the same, but their power is very different.

After acquiring two martial arts techniques, Lu Yao left Langhuan Paradise.

"Why hasn't the eagle returned yet? How could you fail at even catching a weasel?"

Lu Yao frowned slightly, suddenly remembering that the giant eagle had gone to catch the lightning sable and then disappeared.

Although the lightning weasel was swift and highly venomous, the eagle shouldn't have lost its claws.

Lu Yao pondered for a moment, then sped off towards the direction of Wan Jie Valley.

The Lightning Sable was a pet given to Zhong Ling by her father, Zhong Wanchou. The Lightning Sable must have fled to Wanjie Valley to escape.

In the end, the giant eagle is just a strange bird that understands some of the mysteries of martial arts. If it really faces a powerful martial arts master, it may not necessarily be able to defeat him.

Wanjie Valley and Wuliang Mountain are both within Dali and not far apart, otherwise Zhong Ling wouldn't have gone to Wuliang Mountain to play.

Lu Yao arrived at Wanjie Valley in just half an hour.
