Chapter 261: Heavenly Path Second Stage, Echoes of History
At the end of the year,
Yun Ye opened the Heavenly Path and stepped onto the second stage.
His Origin Law had already reached 2.2 times the normal level, and he had hit his limit, needing to reinterpret through the Heavenly Path.
Returning to the Heavenly Path, Yun Ye did not experience any sensation of memories returning.
It seemed that the memories lost last time would not resurface upon entering the Heavenly Path again; he would always remain in an unknown state.
The White Mist loomed around him.
Yun Ye traversed through the white mist rising from the second stage of the Heavenly Path, arriving in a desolate wilderness.
To his shock, he discovered that his body had become incredibly weak, reduced to the lowest level of a Spiritual Law master.
Moreover, he was forcibly awakened to his Spiritual Roots, making his foundation flawed as a Spiritual Law master.
Yun Ye looked around in astonishment.
Countless ordinary beings moved forward, their expressions numb, under the watch of a Spiritual Law master dressed in luxurious clothing.
Along the way, bodies lay everywhere, as far too many collapsed and fell.
As a flood of memories surged back, Yun Ye suddenly realized his situation.
*“Heavenly Path Second Stage: The Fury of Song Wan – In the 112th year of the Luo Dynasty, the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect relocated a million ordinary beings, during which countless perished from hunger and cold. A commoner named Song Wan rose in furious rebellion, inciting the masses to resist several supervising Spiritual Law masters, but was ultimately bloodily suppressed, with a million citizens slaughtered, thereby planting a spiritual flower of Blood Law.”*
Yun Ye was slightly taken aback.
Echoes of history?
This time, the echoes were not about individual characters but the reenactment of an entire historical scene?
Then, what was the purpose? To survive? Or to kill all the supervisors and save these people?
With just a glance, Yun Ye immediately assessed that the nearest supervisors were at least at the foundation of the spiritual realm.
Although theoretically, there were a million of these ordinary beings, the idea of surrounding and killing those in the spiritual realm was, without a doubt, a fantasy…
“Is the difficulty of the Heavenly Path this high?”
Yun Ye believed that even if he could get through this ordeal, it would be exceptionally tough; for an average spiritual realm master, there would be no hope whatsoever.
Or was he just unlucky?
Yun Ye opened his reincarnation panel and looked at the notation of Lan Wuyin’s fortune marked as ‘A+’.
What was going on???
Although he hadn’t obtained Lan Wuyin’s impressive S+ fortune, A+ was already a status on par with the first three levels of Qilin prodigies. Could this still be considered bad luck?
Yun Ye could clearly sense something was off, but he could not pinpoint the issue.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, a violent storm erupted before Yun Ye, sweeping him away as he pondered.
In that brief moment, Yun Ye felt the turbulence; he chose to protect his body and let himself be carried away.
When he finally crashed to the ground with a group of over ten others, the storm had dissipated, leaving behind a massive deep pit filled with severed limbs and discarded arms.
“Ahhh!”
A crowd of ordinary beings let out terrified cries, and chaos spread.
Yun Ye watched the scene with a stiff expression, gazing into the distance.
This historical sight…
“Whoosh.”
Beside him, a man in the spiritual realm floated on a magical artifact, blowing away a spark with his finger, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
Though it seemed unreasonable, he had a sudden whim, so he casually tried his idea.
There were no extra emotions, nor any special purpose; he simply acted on his impulse.
As a result, in an instant, dozens of ordinary beings lost their lives… maybe even hundreds?
“Luo Nian, stop making noise.”
The tokens on the waist of the spiritual realm man emitted a sound, waking a nearby spiritual realm cultivator who was dozing off, who then sent a voice message using the sect’s token.
“Listening to the voice of Spiritual Law is certainly more interesting than watching these ordinary beings, right? I’m not you; I can’t just fall asleep anytime.”
Luo Nian replied indifferently.
“I’m tired… Do as you please; I just don’t want to hear it.”
The cultivator dozed off again, this time shutting off his hearing, not wanting to be disturbed.
However, the spiritual boat artifact continued to fly steadily forward, unaffected.
“Ugh, this is so boring.”
Luo Nian shook his head, moving his fingers to form a fireball under the compression of flames.
Boom!
To Luo Nian’s surprise, the fireball in his hand lost stability, morphing back into flames that slowly engulfed its controller.
However, the speed of the blaze exploding was too slow, appearing completely as slow motion in his eyes, making it ineffective for surprise attacks.
With a casual wave, he exerted powerful spirit energy, extinguishing the flames.
Clearly, someone was interfering with him.
“Who could it be? How interesting.”
Luo Nian couldn’t help but feel a spark of interest; escorting these ordinary beings away from the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect was truly dull, and he welcomed anything entertaining in the meantime.
Of course, in the end, he would thoroughly find out who did it, subject them to all kinds of torment, and seize their Spiritual Roots and power.
Some ordinary beings actually dared to strike at disciples of the Spirit Sect; that was a great sin that could lead to the destruction of their families. There were even instruments of the sect overseeing everything, making it impossible for him to have fun.
Just as that thought flashed through his mind…
“Extreme Spirit Soil Law: Gravity!”
Boom!
The sudden gravitational force slammed Luo Nian and the flying artifact down to the ground.
The flying artifact was designed for low-altitude travel, so the reaction time was very short. The gravitational pull exceeded Luo Nian’s reaction time, directly pinning him to the ground and cracking the earth beneath him like a spider web.
“……”
Around Luo Nian, a massive surge of spirit energy erupted, and in an instant, he stood up, defying the gravity.
His expression vanished completely, replaced by an overwhelming killing intent.
He wanted to play, not to be humiliated.
“Anyone who sees this must die!”
“And you will suffer the worst, torn to pieces!”
A crowd of ordinary beings fled in fear under his murderous aura, yet one lone figure stepped forward, clearly identifiable as the ordinary being who had just committed a great sin.
After saying this, Luo Nian’s killing intent turned into action. He lunged forward, extending his hand to press against Yun Ye’s face, his speed qualitatively different from that of ordinary beings.
However, in that brief moment, Luo Nian also caught a glimpse of the look in the ordinary being’s eyes.
A gaze as if looking at a corpse…
“Spiritual Roots revival!”
“Elevation of Spiritual Roots!”
Yellow spirit patterns spread across Yun Ye’s forehead, quickly covering his face and neck, cascading downward.
He wore ordinary clothing, but it couldn’t hide the brilliance of the spirit patterns, causing Luo Nian’s heart to shake—
Was this a Major Achievement realm’s elevation of Spiritual Roots?
He was just an ordinary being; how could this be?
Boom!
Just as Luo Nian was about to press down on Yun Ye, gravity, far exceeding what had come before, came crashing down.
He had no power to resist.
Luo Nian was slammed into the ground with a thunderous sound that echoed for thousands of meters. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his gaze momentarily blank—he had lost consciousness for a fleeting moment.
But ultimately, as a being of the spiritual realm, his essence of life far surpassed that of ordinary beings, and he recovered in less than a second.
He fought back; fiery patterns spread across his forehead, entering the Spiritual Roots revival state.
“Unique Earth Law: Gravity!”
Having mastered the Earth Spiritual Root, Yun Ye evolved the gravity, adjusting it to target only Luo Nian, achieving the impact of Perfect Spirit.
“Ahhh!”
Luo Nian’s blood reversed flow, and all the cells in his body were disintegrated at a microscopic level, but as a being of the spiritual realm, he did not die immediately; instead, he struggled for a moment before turning into mush amid his wails.
“It seems that understanding the ultimate spirit of each Spiritual Law in advance is indeed meaningful.”
Yun Ye clenched his fist, gazing at the man thousands of meters away, now in a deep slumber, with his murderous intent expanding further.
Although these were just echoes of history, these people felt too real, faithfully recreating the past…
“There’s no need to think too much; kill!”
Yun Ye leaped slightly, as if breaking free from the constraints of gravity, soaring hundreds of meters closer to the second person.
