At this moment, Lu Yang's thoughts were turning constantly.
He no longer pondered how much of Dao Lord Sisui's remarks just now were true and how much were false. Instead, he looked past the phenomenon to see the essence, focusing only on Dao Lord Sisui's main purpose.
"Help you escape…"
Lu Yang looked up, staring straight at the Dao Lord Sisui before him: "Sure, Senior leave my sea of consciousness first, then we can discuss the details."
Dao Lord Sisui looked somewhat helpless upon hearing this: "If you insist, little friend, then so be it. However, if I leave your sea of consciousness, you will no longer be able to communicate with me like this. You will inevitably be discovered by Taiyin. It doesn't matter to me, but you will surely die. Does that not matter?"
"It doesn't matter."
Lu Yang looked indifferent and said softly, "Whatever instructions Senior has, you can tell me now. As for how to act afterwards, I will make my own decisions."
Dao Lord Sisui: "..."
Naturally evil Primordial Saint brat!
"...Fine."
In the next second, Dao Lord Sisui sighed: "Originally I planned to give pointers on your cultivation, Little Friend, to help you improve your realm. It seems there is no chance now."
After speaking, Dao Lord Sisui's figure disappeared along with his voice. Only then did Lu Yang discover that at some point, his sea of consciousness was covered with a layer of haze. Only until this moment did it gradually disperse, revealing the [Tribulation Wave] and the figure of sword spirit Ming He constantly punching. Seeing him, her eyes were teary.
"Master... You aren't dead!"
The little Daoist child with red lips and white teeth leaped into Lu Yang's arms. The divine wonder of cleansing divine sense and purifying the soul erupted with full force.
Everything was very real, exactly the same as the illusion just now.
Lu Yang's expression flickered, somewhat uncertain whether he had really returned to reality or if it was another illusory world created by the other party.
He really couldn't tell.
After a long while, Lu Yang exhaled a deep breath, then looked up, his gaze seemingly able to penetrate the sealed white jade hall.
He wanted to gamble.
In the next second, the [Sea of Bitterness] opened wide.
Rumble!
Endless water of concepts poured out. Lu Yang was completely fearless, stepping into it with one stride, thunder sound bursting from his mouth: "Senior Sister, please show yourself."
—No response.
Lu Yang wasn't surprised and continued, "I saw that Dao Lord."
"Who did you see?"
Almost simultaneously, the originally empty Sea of Bitterness suddenly rose with bright moonlight. A cold and beautiful figure appeared in front of Lu Yang without warning.
It was Immortal Venerable Taiyin!
Seeing this scene, Lu Yang sneered. He directly revealing his Six Qi dao comprehension of the Celestial Court, then tried to sense Sisui's voice again.
However, this time, the voice echoing through heaven and earth did not appear. Heaven and earth were silent, only the water of the [Sea of Bitterness] whistling and surging around the two.
"...No need to try."
Immortal Venerable Taiyin shook her head. "You can't hear His voice in the [Sea of Bitterness]. You just said you saw Him... You have already gathered the Six Qi dao comprehension?"
"Correct."
Lu Yang nodded. "He bewitched me, told me many secrets, wanting me to help Him escape. But I pretended to agree and fooled Him."
Speaking of this, Lu Yang's face was filled with loyalty: "He wanted to turn me against you, which is simply wishful thinking. He doesn't know I am loyal to you, Senior Sister. The Ancestor is the only sun in my heart. I am not a villain like Sky-Shrouding; how could I betray the sect?"
"Really?"
Immortal Venerable Taiyin looked at Lu Yang with a faint smile. "Junior Brother gathered the Six Qi dao comprehension in secret, obviously suspecting me, right? Junior Brother is dishonest~"
"Who? Who is slandering me?"
Lu Yang's expression tightened instantly: "I gathered the Six Qi Dao Comprehension in secret purely to give Senior Sister a surprise. I absolutely have no selfish motives!"
"Then prove it to me."
Immortal Venerable Taiyin extended her fair and tender jade hand, five fingers spreading slowly. On it lay a coin, in which infinite [Money] concepts converged.
"A gift for Junior Brother."
Immortal Venerable Taiyin smiled. "Accept it, Junior Brother. From now on, you owe me a huge sum and will be deeply bound by the [Money] concept. Then I will believe your loyalty..."
Before the Great Yin Immortal Venerable finished speaking, Lu Yang grabbed the coin.
Such a decisive action made Immortal Venerable Taiyin stunned for a moment, then she nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, I indeed didn't misjudge you, Junior Brother!"
"In that case, let's begin... void attainment."
Lu Yang looked at the Saint Sect good Senior Sister in front of him. Although her cold face was full of a benevolent smile at this moment, the depths of her beautiful eyes were icy cold.
Clearly, she wouldn't allow him to resist
"...Good!"
Lu Yang didn't refuse, nodding crisply. Then he took out the [Dao Opening Diagram] and began to weave the concepts of the Six Qi with singular focus.
Taiyin, Shaoyin, Jueyin.
Taiyang, Shaoyang, Yangming.
Wind Wood, Sovereign Fire, Minister Fire, Damp Earth, Dry Metal, Cold Water... Six kinds of concepts intertwined completely at this moment, finally smelting into one, yet still remaining Five Elements.
In this process, the [Sea of Bitterness] was also churning.
As if pulled by something, infinite water of concepts gathered out of thin air. Waves surged and crashing on Lu Yang's body one after another.
At the same time, Lu Yang's eyes became brighter and brighter.
The concept weaving method in the [Dao Opening Diagram] was very perfect. Therefore, by completely imitating the method in the diagram, Lu Yang's weaving speed was unimaginably fast.
Soon, a brilliant light emerged in his palm.
Within the illusory light, Lu Yang seemed to see the gathering of the Five Elements, the merging of Yin and Yang, finally held in his palm like a precious pearl.
It worked?
Incredibly smooth, without any obstacles. Lu Yang stared blankly at the pearl before him, then looked up at the Taiyin Immortal Venerable.
Then—
"Hehe... Hahahahaha!"
Immortal Venerable Taiyin, who just had a cold appearance, suddenly grinned, then covered her face and laughed wildly. The laughter shook the entire Sea of Bitterness.
No, not just the Sea of Bitterness.
But the entire world!
Lu Yang looked around. The [Sea of Bitterness] was shattering, all scenes were disintegrating. Immortal Venerable Taiyin's figure also gradually revealed a hazy phantom.
Looking again, where was Immortal Venerable Taiyin?
Clearly it was Dao Lord Sisui!
"Finally you fell for it!"
At this moment, the re-emerged Dao Lord Sisui was extremely excited: "Many thanks, Little Friend, for retrieving the Dao Fruit from the [Sea of Bitterness] for me. I am about to escape!"
Actually, most of what he said to Lu Yang just now was true.
It was just that when these truths were added together, they became his lie!
Unseal the other five senses?
Absolutely no need!
As long as Lu Yang wove the concepts of the Six Qi and attained the dao fruit through void attainment with this, he achieved his goal!
Everything was just to create pressure for Lu Yang, the pressure of a Dao Lord by the side, thereby forcing and inducing Lu Yang to make the choice he wanted.
Crack—!
In an instant, infinite illusions shattered simultaneously. Lu Yang looked up and look around, finding himself back in the white jade hall again. The voice by his ear had vanished.
Only in his palm, that profound pearl he attained through void attainment remained bright.
But in the next second, this profound pearl disappeared from Lu Yang's palm, escaping into the [Sea of Bitterness].
Immediately, a loud noise was heard.
Rumble!
The white jade hall was suddenly lifted open by a mighty power, revealing the bright moon above the dome of the sky. A cold gaze looked at Lu Yang riding on the moonlight.
Haa... he finally fell for it!
Seeing this scene, Lu Yang exhaled a deep breath instead and smiled: That's right, thatdamned voice left my sea of consciousness!
Ideally, the gamble paid off!
Sure enough, I am insignificant in the eyes of a dignified Dao Lord, at least compared to resurrection. So I just needed to follow his wishes...
After the other party achieved his goal, he would leave on his own.
The result was indeed as Lu Yang expected.
And thinking carefully, achieving void attainment of the dao fruit as soon as possible was originally my plan anyway.
With Dao Lord Sisui helping to cover it up, it became even easier for me to do. The good Senior Sister had no awareness of this at all.
Senior Sisui, we are actually on the same side!
Thinking of this, Lu Yang instantly grinned, looking at the Celestial Court which was roaring and rioting at this moment.
They're going to fight... Let them all fight!
Fight until all trump cards are revealed, until no secrets remain, and then... we'll settle accounts in the next life!
