Xue Ying and Jing Qiu were currently walking towards the peak of Snowrock Mountain in the Snow Eagle Territory.
“Jing Qiu, you should return first. When it’s time for dinner, don’t forget to call me.” Xue Ying laughed.
“Mn.” Jing Qiu smiled before turning and leaving.
Looking at the retreating figure, Xue Ying felt an unseen pressure lashing out at his heart. His current life was extremely comfortable, but it could only exist as long as he stepped out of his comfort zone and protected it.
The demons are becoming more and more tyrannic. I must improve my combat power to the stage of grasping a complete True Meaning as quickly as possible, Xue Ying thought to himself. Thereafter, he cleared his mind and sat cross-legged on the ice-cold mountain peak. All the pressure within his heart was thrown to the back of his mind. Currently, he had his full concentration focused on the four Profound Mysteries of Earth, Fire, Water and Wind. He intended to first deepen his understanding of these four Profound Mysteries and then fuse them together again.
This was because whether it was the embryonic form of the True Meaning of Extreme Piercing or the True Meaning of Star, both were formed from a fusion of the Profound Mysteries of Earth, Fire, Water and Wind.
Illusions.
Xue Ying began to contemplate.
On the mountain peak, six figures suddenly and silently appeared beside Xue Ying.
Six identical, black-robed Xue Ying’s were deep in contemplation.
Last time, I grasped hold of the embryonic form of the True Meaning of Illusions based on the Profound Mysteries of Water, Fire and Wind. Xue Ying pondered. As for the fusion of the Profound Mystery of Earth with the other three Profound Mysteries… it actually did not destroy the original embryonic form of the True Meaning of Illusions. Instead, it made it even stronger, as if the Profound Mystery of Earth was a huge boon to the embryonic form of the True Meaning of Illusions.
As he continued contemplating…
He realised that… due to his comprehension of the Profound Mystery of Earth, his illusions had attained ‘souls,’ solidifying them—unlike the previous illusions which were purely ethereal.
As his comprehension of the concept of acceptance within the Profound Mystery of Earth deepened, he would continuously adjust the embryonic form of the True Meaning of Illusions by changing the method of how the four Profound Mysteries were fused.
Initially, he had used Water, Fire and Wind as the main base. The Profound Mystery of Earth was then fused into it bit by bit. He was afraid of destroying this embryonic form of the True Meaning of Illusions. Even though he already had two grade two embryonic forms of the True Meanings—Extreme Piercing and Star—Xue Ying still considered his Illusions as quite important. After all, when he truly mastered the grade three True Meaning of Illusions, the threat he posed to his enemies would greatly increase.
As time passed, however, Xue Ying realised one thing—the Profound Mystery of Earth was not just an aid to the True Meaning of Illusions; instead, it had become a crucial part of it. Compared to Water, Fire and Wind, its importance had become even greater.
Xue Ying continuously adjusted the method of fusion between Earth, Fire, Water and Wind, diligently pursuing an even more perfected form of True Meaning of Illusions.
This is —
The six Xue Yings suddenly became astonished
They looked into different directions.
The original mountain peak began to vibrate. Countless mountain rocks flew up towards this particular peak, causing it to accumulate and extend continuously, becoming bigger and bigger…
“Mn?” The six Xue Ying looked up towards the sky.
It was originally afternoon, yet right now, dark clouds were rolling over and were soon covering the entire sky, causing the entire area to become pitch-black.
Si la ~
The countless dark clouds suddenly ripped apart.
A huge palm instantly penetrated through the clouds to appear in front of Xue Ying.
The six Xue Yings all stood up at the same time.
“Retreat,” Xue Ying immediately said.
All of the dark clouds instantly retreated backwards.
The gigantic arm and palm that had appeared from within the void stopped in front of Xue Ying.
“Sunset, moonrise,” Xue Ying commanded once again.
The hanging sun high up in the sky quickly set in the west… and a huge round moon slowly rose in its place.
“The big sea.”
Xue Ying smiled.
The original mountain range now had endless waves of water gushing over, flowing amongst the mountains. The entire eastern area of the Snowrock Mountain turned into an endless sea of crashing waves and frothing shores. Gradually, the violent sea became tranquil and many fishing trawls appeared. In the distance, there were even seagulls flying in the sky and big fish leaping out of the surface of the water.
“So mystical,” Xue Ying said to himself.
