Chapter 389 Venerable Jin Feng, the Illusory True Demon God
Based on the placement of divine beacons by himself and his soul servants throughout the universe, and combined with the intelligence data at hand, Ye Yang identified his first target:
Venerable Fanlin, a first-level cosmic venerable, was born into one of the twelve royal families of the demon race.
Magnet Wing Venerable, a mid-level universe Venerable, comes from a powerful clan within the Demon Clan Alliance.
These two Venerables joined forces to explore the Sand Layer Secret Realm. Thirteen eras ago, they were encountered by another Venerable from the Mechanical Race faction; three eras ago, they were seen by a Venerable from another race within the Hong Alliance venturing into a dangerous storm—
Six hundred years ago, the Blood Lord of the Northern Frontier Alliance saw the two of them appear near the No. 183 natural continent of the Sand Layer Secret Realm; 23 years ago, they were discovered by the Cosmic Lord of the Hong Alliance on the No. 184 natural continent.
Because the intelligence was very detailed and the distance was suitable, Ye Yang chose them.
Without bringing any supreme treasures, only three ordinary heavy treasures, Ye Yang's first-generation Golden Horned Beast clone descended to the edge of the Sand Layer Secret Realm via the Divine Kingdom teleportation.
This secret realm is a well-known exploration area in the universe, so even though those below the Venerable level would surely die if they entered, there are still many immortal gods wandering outside the universe's secret realm.
Only a servant of one of Ye Yang's soul servants would place a divine power beacon here.
As the hazy light faded, a small beast, over a meter tall, appeared on the meteorite.
Some time ago, Ye Yang spent a lot of money to find all the cultivation materials for the third level of "The True World", a total of three sets!
Now, the three original Golden Horned Beast clones have all cultivated to the third level of "Original World," and their ability to change size many times over will not affect their strength.
With a flap of its wings, the little beast simultaneously cut through space and affected the flow of time, instantly reaching the speed of light like an arrow released from a bow, and then entering the dark universe.
After calculating the coordinates, he directly decelerated and returned to the original universe. At this time, Ye Yang was already inside the Sand Layer Secret Realm, near Natural Continent No. 184.
"Hopefully they are still on this natural continent—but it doesn't necessarily have to be these two. Advancing to the level of a Cosmic Venerable is the highest priority. Once a suitable target is found, we can just take action."
The little beast murmured, and its divine power was no longer fire-attribute, but metal-attribute.
Ye Yang had comprehended the fundamental laws of fire and metal, but previously, when he was out on missions, he had always allowed his divine body to manifest the fire attribute.
His giant beast clone, in particular, is quite iconic. After all, who has ever seen a golden-horned giant beast with fire-attribute divine power fluctuations?
Therefore, it is common knowledge that once a golden-horned behemoth with a fire-attribute divine body is seen, it is almost certain that it is Ye Yang, the genius of the human race who has recently shocked the entire universe.
Therefore, there is only an ordinary golden-horned giant beast here now.
"Hehe, I am now Venerable Golden Peak. They are looking for Ye Yang. What does that have to do with me, Venerable Golden Peak?"
Ye Yang smiled.
They directly used the alternate account that Luo Feng would use in the future.
Because of the change in divine power attributes, the aura of the entire divine body has changed slightly. Even someone who knows Ye Yang very well would not be able to be sure of what he looks like now.
Unless one is the master of the universe, who controls space and time, they cannot directly see through Ye Yang's soul form!
Natural Continent No. 184 is surrounded by violent forces. The upper layer is a storm that scrapes and erodes flesh, and the lower layer is a vortex of sand that strangles and kills. But this natural continent is very magical. It exists in an extremely dangerous sandy secret realm and has maintained a quiet and peaceful area.
Even within this region, there exists a race of flesh and blood beings, who have given birth to many immortal powerhouses. Unfortunately, none of them have the ability to break out of this continent. The dangers outside are so great that immortal gods would almost certainly die if they came into contact with them!
Ye Yang was certainly not an ordinary immortal god. Even wearing only a common treasure armor, his divine body could easily withstand the impact of the storm.
He traversed the storm and entered the interior of natural continent number 184.
"Generally speaking, the Venerable Ones who venture into the Sand Layer Secret Realm usually enter these natural continents to rest, and stay for several decades to over a thousand years."
"However, judging from the movements of Venerable Fanlin and Venerable Ciji, it seems they're not just resting; they appear to be searching for something. Oh well, if we capture them, we'll know everything. I just hope they haven't left yet."
Ye Yang didn't hide anything and directly deployed a domain to explore!
He only brought three treasures this time, none of which were of high value. One of them, a common treasure of the domain type, was very suitable for exploration.
It is estimated that it would only take thirty round trips to scan the entire continent in a single day.
There are not many powerful individuals left who can threaten Ye Yang. Only the Lord of the Universe, who is skilled in soul illusions, has the potential to truly threaten him.
Other dangers include self-destructing one of my clones and losing three ordinary, worthless treasures.
Could there be a cosmic ruler lurking on this continent?
Are you kidding me!
In a small alleyway of a bustling city on the mainland.
Outside the alley, alien creatures with yellow antennae on their heads come and go on the street.
Inside the alley, a strange creature, missing most of its antennae, weak in breath, and utterly listless, sat quietly on the ground.
"Child, you're in the prime of your life, your body has a strong ability to recover. Why aren't you treating your injuries properly, instead of sitting here waiting to die?"
An elderly man from another race walked over from the other side of the alley and asked with a smile.
The middle-aged alien glanced at the old man, gave a bitter smile, and said, "It's pointless."
"The person I trusted most betrayed me, everything I had is gone, now I am infamous, everyone is calling for my life, I have no way out."
"If I die quietly here, perhaps my foolish daughter, who is unaware of the truth, can save her life."
Upon hearing the words of the middle-aged alien, the old man said in a hoarse voice, "Do not despair. The universe is full of miracles. Nothing is permanent. Anything can happen."
"Is that so?" The middle-aged alien man replied listlessly, without even lifting his head.
"Yes." The old man nodded.
Just five seconds later, the middle-aged alien suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.
His entire demeanor changed completely; he became like a tiger or a lion, a domineering and fierce wolf.
"Where am I—" He looked around warily, and when he saw the old man, his face showed shock: "How did I return to 60,000 years ago? I was clearly already a demigod—this? What's going on? Was it all just a dream?"
"child."
The old man chuckled and said, "Anything is possible; there's no need to dwell too much on the past."
After saying that, he disappeared without a trace.
"Wait?!" The alien youth quickly stood up. In his memory, it was this senior who taught him for a period of time, which eventually allowed him to rise to become a powerful figure second only to the gods.
Unfortunately, I was never able to find this senior again.
Now, whether it's a reversal of time or a dream, he must seize this opportunity!
"Senior! Senior! Please, I want to follow you!"
He couldn't find anyone, couldn't sense any presence, and could only kneel on the ground and beg.
A sigh came just ten seconds later.
The young man from the alien race was overjoyed. His senior had indeed not left and was about to appear to see him!
However, the next moment, the alien man froze completely, and then vanished like dust in the wind.
"What a disappointing little guy—"
The old man shook his head, looked away from the dust on the ground, and turned to leave the alley.
Suddenly————
An invisible force swept across the city silently.
No! It's not just this city; the entire area spanning millions of kilometers is under the scan of this invisible force. "A domain-type treasure?"
The old man turned around and glanced into the distance.
With just one glance, time and space froze and the laws of nature retreated.
The whole world fell silent.
"Huh?" Ye Yang, who was in the form of a small beast searching for a target, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and subconsciously turned his gaze toward a city in the distance.
Inexplicably, he pierced through vast distances and countless buildings, directly meeting the gaze of an elderly man from another race.
He could no longer sense the presence of the fundamental laws of the universe.
They also instantly sensed the anomaly in the surrounding space and time.
The old man also faintly transformed into a blurry figure of black mist—
"Are you a golden-horned behemoth?"
"interesting."
Ye Yang only heard such a voice in his ear, and his eyes instantly became confused.
Even after undergoing fundamental cultivation of the true self and experiencing a significant transformation and sublimation of consciousness and will, it is still utterly vulnerable in the face of this unknown and terrifying existence!
So easily lost —
However, the true self is ultimately used to approach and seek the essence and truth of the world.
At the critical moment, Ye Yang regained a sliver of clarity.
"Explode! Explode! Explode! Explode!"
His soul roared in fury, causing the clone to self-destruct!
The divine body, originally at an altitude of 90,000 kilometers and with a quality comparable to a hundred times that of a Gene Venerable, self-destructed. This massive energy burst could even make top cosmic overlords feel apprehensive.
Destroying this continent is not impossible.
However, with the appearance of a towering figure shrouded in black mist, everything vanished without a trace.
"So it just self-destructed like that? Could it really be a golden-horned behemoth with the ability to create clones?"
"But—an immortal being at the level of perfect life genes, with a consciousness and will comparable to the Lord of the Universe, I have never heard of such a heaven-defying genius in the Starry Sky Beast Alliance."
"I've never heard of such a genius in the entire universe."
The black mist figure muttered to itself, shook its head, and vanished instantly.
Ye Yangshen is in China.
"Hiss~ What the hell is going on?!"
The enormous mycelial planet trembled, yet its powerful will still carried a lingering sense of fear.
-
Ye Yang quickly calmed down and began to analyze what had just happened.
"Who exactly is that figure shrouded in black mist?"
"The Lord of the Universe? No! It seems that even the laws governing the universe were repelled at that moment!"
"So, I might have just encountered the strongest being in the universe?"
Ye Yang was somewhat bewildered again.
"Wait, how could it be such a coincidence?"
"Furthermore, for a moment I seemed to have been completely caught in the trap; that must have been a powerful expert in soul illusions. Yet I was eventually jolted awake. Could my strengthened true self really achieve such a feat?"
"Fortunately, fortunately, that unknown expert didn't initially have much killing intent; otherwise, with direct soul penetration and erosion, he could have annihilated all three of my clones!"
Ye Yang secretly rejoiced.
One human clone and one giant beast clone are fine; he can afford to lose them.
But if one of the fungal clones were to fall, Ye Yang would be heartbroken!
Continuing to recall, the black mist figure not only blocked the laws of the universe but also took control of the entire spacetime. Therefore, it's highly likely that it directly saw the soul form of Ye Yang's clone at that time.
"Fortunately, I sent out the second Golden Horned Beast clone. The trinity is the self-aware form of the second clone, which did not expose my human identity."
"However, the first-generation Golden Horned Beast is different from the ordinary Golden Horned Beasts in the universe, which puzzled the figure in the black mist."
Ye Yang reviewed the situation again and again, confirming that apart from a clone and three ordinary treasures, there were no greater losses or future troubles before he finally relaxed completely.
"I caught a glimpse of the figure's armor from the black mist; it had this unique pattern. I should ask Master Chaos City Lord; a powerhouse of this level should know something."
Ye Yang's consciousness entered the virtual universe to pay his respects to the Lord of Chaos City.
"Hmm? Your consciousness—has become stronger."
Upon seeing Ye Yang this time, the Lord of Chaos City showed a slight surprise.
In the virtual universe, the only thing that can be brought in from reality is the pressure of will and consciousness.
Upon first seeing Ye Yang, the Lord of Chaos City almost mistook him for a cosmic ruler visiting him.
"Hehe, teacher, I've recently had some good fortune again."
Ye Yang smiled and got back to business: "Just now, I encountered a mysterious powerhouse in the Sand Layer Secret Realm. I couldn't defeat him by force, so I had to self-destruct a clone. This powerhouse's identity is unknown, but his armor had this pattern—"
He showed the pattern.
This caused the Chaos City Lord's expression to change instantly, and he stared intently at the pattern on the corner of the armor that Ye Yang had simulated.
And, that blurry figure in the black mist.
"You're saying you managed to secure the opportunity to self-destruct from this powerful figure?" The Chaos City Lord asked, narrowing his eyes. "You brought the Soul-Suppressing Bell with you?"
"No, the Soul-Suppressing Bell won't be very effective against this person either."
The Chaos City Lord scrutinized Ye Yang for a long time, focusing on the powerful aura emanating from him.
He nodded and said, "That was a terrifying being who became the strongest in the universe by following the path of illusion—a true demon god."
"Even the most powerful beings in the universe would be extremely cautious when they encounter him, and would take a long detour to avoid him. Even I, in the primordial universe, could only barely protect myself in his presence."
Ye Yang was somewhat taken aback: "The Illusory True Demon God?"
Isn't this the strongest being in the universe who went to the Ancestral Mystic Realm to annihilate Luo Feng's soul in the original story?
How did I end up in this situation now?
What luck!
Ye Yang stayed behind in the virtual universe for a long talk with the Lord of Chaos before finally leaving.
His brows were deeply furrowed, and his expression was serious.
"It's probably the world's fate-correcting force at work again, trying to eliminate someone like me who shouldn't exist."
"This is really troublesome. It comes out of nowhere, catching you completely off guard."
Ye Yang sighed.
But what can we do?
This did not make him abandon his plans; he still had to continue taking action.
"Fate manipulation is limited to this. It can only control accidental events and accumulate coincidences to create repeated shocks."
"After this, it will probably take some time for 'coincidences' to accumulate and form new corrective events."
"All risks and crises stem from insufficient strength!"
"To comprehend the laws of space and time, and become a cosmic master, a cosmic supreme being! I must quicken my pace."
""
After the second Golden Horn clone was resurrected, Ye Yang immediately changed targets and continued his actions.
