A Spiritual Realm like it's name suggests, is not an actual realm. It is an independent world of it's own yes but at the same time it is not.
Whenever any inanimate objects are exposed to a huge amounts of spiritual Qi for a long period of time, it will be able to gain their own spirituality, allowing them to have a mind of their own. After these items reached a certain threshold in their cultivation, they will be able to enters a hibernating state and when this occurred, the space around them distorted and spiritual Qi in the vicinity condensed, forming a separate world.
Hence the name, Spiritual Realm.
Liu Yang stretched his hand upward, grabbing a branch of the flaming tree. The leaves of blazing fire feels like a scorching hot sun, extremely hot.
However, Liu Yang acts like it's nothing.
Liu Yang increase the pressure on his grip.
The tree instantly combusted in a blazing wave of flame.
Underneath his blindfold, his eyes gleams in golden light.
The flames condensed into his palm, forming an ball.
Inside of a Spiritual Realm, nothing is real.
At least, not physically real.
Instead, they are all energy that had been absorbed during the creation of the spatial world, condensing into various shapes and forms that 'perfected' the Spiritual Realm.
A roar of a beasts resounded behind.
A beast of fire leaped into the air, ready to pounce on the blindfolded youth.
Liu Yang casually threw the ball of fire in his hand into the air.
What followed is an explosion that revebrated through the vicinity.
"Spiritual Beasts, beasts that can easily be find in any Spiritual Realm." Liu Yang wave his hand and a crimson coloured crystal flew into his grasp.
Similar to anything inside a Spirituality World, even Spiritual Beasts are created from condensed spiritual Qi.
Liu Yang crashed the fire spiritual stone in his hand.
However, a Spiritual Beasts are formed after any ores of spiritual stones underground under the vicinity of infant Spiritual Realm are absorbed and mutated into a spiritual stones of the elements of the Spiritual Realm.
A wave of scorching hot fire Qi engulfed Liu Yang's fist.
Liu Yang smirk, waving his hand to disperse the fire from his hand.
The cry of a divine bird resounded in the distance.
Liu Yang looks up, amused.
A crimson coloured bird spread it's wings in the air. It's body is crimson in colour, adorned with scorching hot flame that rivals the surround fire of this Spiritual Realm.
The vermilion bird let out a shrieking cries as it descent into the ground.
A huge explosion engulfed the ground.
When the smoke dissipate, countless disciples of the Dark Moon Palace laid on the ground unconscious.
In the middle of them, a sheathed sword thrusted the ground.
The sword is an emblemish white in colour and the surrounding flames of the Spiritual Realms highlighted it's pristine white colour.
The sheathed sword flew back into Bai Lin's hand.
He watched coldly at the unconscious disciples om the ground and snorted.
Bai Lin walked passed them.
A white light streaked across the field, burning everything on it's path.
The head of a Spiritual Beast was decapitated from it's body.
The entire body of the Spiritual Beast instantly dispersed into a crimson flame.
A piece of fire spiritual stones flew into Bai Lin's hand.
Clang!
The sword flew to his back, blocking a sword strike of another disciple of the Dark Moon Palace. Six colours shrouding the entire sword.
Bai Lin stretched his hand, flicking his slender fingers against the handle of the sword, creating a clinging sound.
The sword tremble before splitting into six swords that pierced through the body of the disciple.
"Disperse." Bai Lin's palm glows in white light, while all five of his fingers glows in five different lights, each representing the colours of the five different elements while his palm glows in cold white light.
Bai Lin swept his arm across the air.
All six swords glows in different lights, shooting out into six different directions.
What followed soon are the screams of various beasts and the shouts of cultivator who had been hiding somewhere.
"Return."
Six lights shots out from the forest.
The six swords gathers around him, cycling around his body.
Bai Lin raised one of his fingers. The six swords merged into one and the tip of the pristine white sword floats above his finger.
Bai Lin clenched his fist and the sword flew back into it's scabbard.
"The disciples of the Dark Moon Palace are here!"
"All of them are unconscious! Loot their rings before they gains consciousness.
The youth's eyes remains cold as the rouge cultivators approached.
While Bai Lin is surrounded by dangers, Liu Yang's currently condition is the complete opposite.
It can't be helped.
Liu Yang posess one of the strongest Immortal Pupils in the cosmos, the Primordial Truth Pupils with the ability [ Heaven's Vision ] that allows him to see everything in third perspective.
Combined with his self created [ Eagel's Perspective ] technique, the effect became many times more effective.
Unlike Bai Lin, he doesn't have to walks through dangerous parts of the forest. Not when he can easily sees through the entire forest with a single glance.
That was to say, it doesn't mean that he does not involve himself in any fights.
Liu Yang swept his fist across the air.
Yang essence blazed across the air, transforming into a dragon.
The body of a Spiritual Beast disperse into motes of crimson fire.
Liu Yang shifted his body position, dodging the maw of another Spiritual Beast.
His fist strike the abdomen of the, his Yang essence exploding the flaming body of the Spiritual Beast into motes of flames.
His kick shifted, striking the head of another Spiritual Beast.
The [ Dragon Emperor's Fist ] are divided into multiple forms. Each forms are more powerful than the last.
As they are more powerful, the burden these forms applied to his body are higher.
[ Devouring Dragon] , [ Ferocious Dragon ], [ Dragon's Fist ], [ Tyrannica Dragon ] and ladtly [ Tyrannical Dragon's Fist ].
With his current fleshly body strength, he could only cultivate the [ Devouring Dragon ] form of the [ Dragon Emperor's Fist ]
But just because this form is only the first form, it doesn't mean that it is weak.
Liu Yang's Yang essence shrouded his entire arm, blazing into the shape of a dragon head.
His yang essence blazed, enlarging the size of the dragon. To those who are watching from afar, they could clearly see a huge dragon head opening it's maw to devour everything in it's path.
Soon, a huge explosion of Yang essence engulfed the entire forest.
A few miles away on top of a cliff, Bai Lin turns his head to see the smoke rising into the air.
He blinks his eyes.
He turns back to his current project.
Around him, a huge formation had been constructed. A formation in the shape of a triangle. On each tips of the formation, various spiritual stones had been placed in order to empower the formation.
In middle of the formation, Bai Lin sat in a lotus position and surrounding him are piles upon piles of Fire Spiritual Stones that he had gained after killing so many Spiritual Beasts.
I wonder how she is doing right now.
Bai Lin shook his head, dispersing the thought from his hesd.
His eyes glows in purple, gleaming in five different lights as his soul power flared.
The formation lit up, empowered by his soul power.
The energy from within the stones is absorbed, purified by the formation and gathered into his body.
Inside his dantian, a Spiritual Root glows in six different colours, red, white, gold, blue and green.
The fire spiritual Qi is absorbed into his body while at the same time, his Spiritual Root is constantly absorbing the fire Qi, transforming them into a fire essence in matters of seconds before being fused with his body for tempering.
However, if others are to peer into his body right now, they would immediately be shocked.
All living beings are born with one dantian, a centre of their energy source. Within the dantians, are where the Spiritual Roots are located.
In Bai Lin'a case, right now he has two dantians.
While one of his dantian is absorbing the fire Qi into essence and tempering his body, his second dantian is glowing in a bright silver light, exuding a cold Yin essence.
Fire is an attribute of Yang, something that is incompatible with Yin. But the moment the two energies met, something unexpected happens.
Both energies are nourishing one another.
[ Five Elements Lotus Arts ]
Peak [ Crimson Fire ] stage.
Breakthrough!
While all of this is happening, far far away Liu Yang is undergoing the same situation.
Inside of a cave brimming with fire spiritual Qi, Liu Yang sat in a meditative position while circulating the [ Dragon Emperor's Body Refining Art].
He had already achieved the first stage in cultivating the [ Yin and Yang Chaos Refining ], the [ Yin and Yang Origin ] stage.
In achieving so, his essence has grown to become denser than most Peak Foundational Builders. His fleshly body and bones has also grown stronger, far surpassing those in the Foundation Building experts.
As for his soul, he afraid not many in this world can afford to surpass him.
A flame of gold flared from his forehead as his soul power raised in in power.
His soul power spread through the intricate patterns of formation, giving power to the formation to be activated.
The formation lits up, highlighting it's intricate patterns.
The energies within the spiritual stones are absorbed, gathered and fused into his flesh
