The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

After snatching the Six Meridians Divine Sword manual, Lu Yao quickly retreated.

With a master of innate talent present, the giant eagle was too slow, so Lu Yao had to escape quickly on his own.

"Thieves, please leave!"

His decades of Zen meditation and self-cultivation skills crumbled instantly, and his face showed extreme shock and anger.

In an instant, Ku Rong leaped into the air, unleashing several streams of Six Meridian Divine Sword energy towards Lu Yao.

Unfortunately, thanks to Lu Yao's Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique), the sword energy couldn't hit him at all.

"Hahaha! Don't panic, everyone. Let this humble monk retrieve this sword manual for you."

Kumārajīva was overjoyed and immediately used his lightness skill to quickly rush towards Lu Yao.

This situation was a godsend for Kumārajīva. Under the pretext of helping Tenryū-ji Temple steal the sword manual, he could decide whether to give it to Tenryū-ji Temple after he got it back, depending on his own mood.

"We might be able to spare this little thief's life later."

In high spirits, Kumārajīva chuckled to himself and found Lu Yao much more agreeable.

Kumārajīva was, after all, a master of the mid-stage of the Innate Realm, and his speed was much faster than that of Kurō. In just a moment, he caught up with Lu Yao.

"Why is the master so persistent? This is not your family's sword manual."

Lu Yao didn't stop walking, turned his head to look at Kumārajīva and smiled lightly.

"Haha, young benefactor, you should hand over the sword manual to me, and I may spare your life."

Kumārajīva laughed heartily, looking at Lu Yao who was so close at hand with great excitement.

Just then, Lu Yao suddenly stopped.

Kumārajīva was overjoyed, thinking that Lu Yao was going to give him the sword manual in order to save his life.

"Alright! Young benefactor, you are indeed wise to act now. Quickly give me the sword manual and run for your life."

Kumārajīva looked at Lu Yao with a smile and extended his hand.

Lu Yao also looked terrified, took the sword manual in his hand, and respectfully handed it to Kumārajīva.

In Kumārajīva's mind, Lu Yao was just a young man with excellent lightness skills, and no threat whatsoever.

Moreover, with the Six Meridians Divine Sword manual right before his eyes, Kumārajīva couldn't help but lower his guard.

Just as Kumārajīva reached out to pick up the sword manual, Lu Yao flipped his hand, returned the sword manual to his original space, and directly grabbed Kumārajīva's hands.

"you!"

Kumārajīva was shocked and enraged, and was about to kill Lu Yao, but the suction force coming from his hand instantly made him lose control of his true energy.

"Dissolving Power Technique! You're from the Starry Sea!"

Kumārajīva's eyes widened in horror as he stared at Lu Yao.

Lu Yao's Beiming Divine Skill has reached the pinnacle of perfection, far surpassing Duan Yu's half-baked skill.

Furthermore, Lu Yao himself was a master of the late stage of the Innate Realm, and Kumārajīva, whose body had been invaded by the Northern Darkness True Qi, was certainly unable to break free on his own.

Feeling his internal energy draining away like a collapsing dam, and being completely unable to resist, Kumārajīva's expression changed drastically.

"Young benefactor! I don't want this sword manual! Release this humble monk at once!"

Kumārajīva looked extremely anxious and pleaded for mercy.

"Kumārajīva! I'll accept your true energy!"

Lu Yao sneered, not intending to let Kumārajīva, this super power bank, go.

The fully mastered Northern Darkness Divine Art was incredibly terrifying; in just twenty breaths, Kumārajīva was completely drained.

Lu Yao loosened his grip, and Kumārajīva, whose eyes had rolled back and who was exhausted and unconscious, collapsed directly to the ground.

Feeling the surging Northern Darkness True Qi within his body, Lu Yao's lips curled into a smile.

"You scoundrel! Give me back my sword manual!"

Soon, Ku Rong, along with five eminent monks from Tianlong Temple who had cultivated the Six Meridians Divine Sword, caught up with Lu Yao.

"Return my temple's sword manual! And I'll spare your life!"

Ku Rong stared solemnly at Lu Yao.

Suddenly, Kurong saw Kumārajīva lying unconscious on the ground and was startled.

"Amitabha! Since your martial arts are so outstanding, why bother to steal this meager martial art from our temple?"

Ku Rong instantly realized that he might have spoken too loudly, so he quickly organized his thoughts and asked softly.

"Now that the master is here, don't leave."

Lu Yao remained calm, his eyes slightly narrowed.

After absorbing all of Kumārajīva's internal energy, Lu Yao's strength successfully reached the late stage of the Innate Realm, but his dantian was not yet full.

Lu Yao's true energy has now reached nearly a hundred years, making him incredibly powerful.

"Set up the Six Meridians Sword Formation!"

Ku Rong was also resolute. Seeing that Lu Yao was unwilling to give up, he shouted loudly.

In an instant, the six surrounded Lu Yao, their true energy erupting and condensing into streams of Six Meridian Divine Sword Qi, which they used to attack Lu Yao in a sword formation.

"Ants!"

Lu Yao chuckled. If Kumārajīva and Kurō had joined forces before, he might have been a little more worried.

Now, it's nothing but a clay chicken and a clay dog.

Lu Yao's true energy surged like a surging sea, continuously breaking through the Six Meridians Divine Sword formation.

Apart from Ku Rong, the others all coughed up blood and collapsed on the ground, severely injured.

These people are only at the peak of the Acquired Realm; how could they possibly withstand the burst of true energy from the late-stage Innate Realm?

Ku Rong took two steps back, looking at Lu Yao in horror.

"Late stage of the Innate Realm! Impossible!"

Ku Rong stared at Lu Yao in disbelief. He couldn't believe that there could be such a young master at the late stage of the Innate Realm.

Lu Yao didn't waste any words with Ku Rong. He used the Lingbo Weibu technique, moving like a phantom, and instantly grabbed Ku Rong by the neck.

The Northern Darkness Divine Art was activated, and all the internal energy in the body was rapidly drained away.

"Dissolve, the Great Dissolve Technique!"

Ku Rong was an old-timer who had lived for decades, so he naturally knew the secret techniques of Xingxiu Hai Ding Chunqiu.

A moment later, along with the other seriously injured high monks of Tianlong Temple, all of them had their power drained and were left weak and unconscious.

"My dantian can't hold any more true qi. It looks like I need to strengthen my dantian."

Lu Yao slowly opened his eyes, a flash of pale blue light passing through them.

Lu Yao glanced at the people lying on the ground, a cold glint in his eyes.

With a thought, several sword energies pierced the hearts of several people, severing their heart meridians and causing their complete death.

Lu Yao was very satisfied with the world origins provided by the others.

"Wow!"

Lu Yao released the giant eagle, climbed onto its back, and left the place.

In the original space.

Lu Yao sat cross-legged in the training room, opened the Six Meridians Divine Sword Manual, and began to study it.

Several hours later, Lu Yao slightly moved his fingers, and his true energy flowed through his meridians, instantly unleashing a surge of sword energy.

This means you have successfully mastered the Six Meridians Divine Sword technique.

As Lu Yao's talent grew stronger, he was able to quickly learn many secret techniques, truly a once-in-a-millennium genius.

"Haotian Pearl! Enhance it!"

With a thought, Lu Yao immediately activated the Haotian Pearl to begin strengthening it.

A pale white fluorescent light appeared, enveloping Lu Yao before dissipating in a moment.

Origin of the World: 1890→1347

The Six Meridian Divine Sword truly lives up to its reputation as a renowned divine skill in the world of Tianlong, as it consumes even more world essence than the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique).

"Haotian Pearl! Strengthen your dantian!"

Without pausing, Lu Yao immediately began strengthening his dantian.

Origin of the World: 1347→500

After a short while, Lu Yao sensed the world and was very satisfied. He only kept five hundred World Origin for emergencies, and used the rest to strengthen his dantian.

With the strengthening of the world's origin, the strength of the dantian has greatly increased, and it can now hold six hundred years of true qi cultivation.
