Chapter 756 - 356 Star Realm Army Formation Improved Version_2
However, cultivators at the Immortal King Realm were different; they comprehended the Tao, intermingling their inner worlds with the Tao, intertwining themselves with the Tao, grasping the Power of Origin, and eventually, their inner worlds could even project an Immortal Domain within the universe.
Generally speaking, even cultivators at the Immortal Venerable Realm would die, albeit having extremely long lives, spanning hundreds of millions of years.
But once they reached the Immortal King Realm, with their inner worlds blended with the Tao, unless the Tao itself ceased to exist, they would not die or perish, achieving true immortality.
Above the Immortal King was the Immortal Emperor, who had completely mastered the Power of Origin of a single Tao, reaching the ultimate limits of the universe, the true strongest being.
Such powerhouses, with a single thought, could annihilate stars or recreate heaven and earth.
Through the cultivation technique of the Immortal King Realm, Lu Yi had gained some understanding of the power of both the Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors.
This left Lu Yi incredibly shocked, but it also left him even more astonished.
Such powerhouses, yet they still couldn’t defeat Jiuyou, which was quite absurd.
After gaining a rudimentary understanding of the Sunburning Starfall Technique, Lu Yi deepened his understanding of the Power of Origin.
Although he was still at the Golden Immortal Realm, and his inner world had just begun to take shape and was not yet perfected, after all, his inner world was throbbing with the Taoist Energy and even Chaos Qi.
By leveraging the Taoist Energy, Lu Yi could also intertwine with the outer Tao, which meant that although he was only at the Golden Immortal Realm, he could perform techniques of the Immortal King Realm and control the Power of Tao Origin.
Even though he had been able to leverage the Power of Tao before, the gap compared to now was enormous.
If previously Lu Yi needed to use all his strength to leverage a fraction of the Taoist Energy, now, Lu Yi only needed to exert a tenth of the effort, and moreover, Lu Yi’s limit in leveraging the Taoist Energy was continuously increasing.
He could even consider this technique as one of his regular techniques, just like the Immortal Spirit Qi, rather than keeping it as a last resort.
Feeling the changes within himself, Lu Yi was internally exhilarated and continued to comprehend.
Just fifty years later, Lu Yi had brought this Immortal King Scripture to the Great Success Realm, a speed that was incredibly astonishing.
Besides, Lu Yi had even learned several powerful secret techniques from the Sunburning Starfall Technique, significantly enhancing his strength once again.
During these fifty years, besides advancing his comprehension of the Immortal King Scripture, Lu Yi had not neglected other matters.
He didn’t miss any of Tianming’s lectures, and his practice of the Array Tao, Alchemy Dao, and Artefact Tao also continued without pause.
Even, Lu Yi’s deductions of the Star Realm Army Formation continued to advance with his improvement in the Array Tao, making great progress.
The Star Realm Army Formation that Lu Yi had deduced now was much improved compared to before and didn’t seem capable of further improvement in the short term.
Unless his cultivation base advanced again or he gained a deeper understanding of the Tao Origin, integrating the Power of Origin into the army formation might bring different changes.
However, the current improvement was quite significant, and it was a massive enhancement for the Star Realm Army.
Thus, Lu Yi went to find Yu Hanguang at Ling Luo Peak.
Since Lu Yi had just finished giving a lecture not long ago, Yu Hanguang was in closed-door cultivation, and when Lu Yi found him, he was eager to return to his cultivation.
“Lu Yi, what’s up? Is something the matter? If you want to drink, go find Yuanwu, I’m in the midst of cultivation.”
Lu Yi chuckled lightly, “I’ve improved the Star Realm Army’s formation, Brother Han Guang, if you were planning to cultivate, should I come back another time?”
Upon hearing this, Yu Hanguang, who had just been planning to cultivate, immediately said, “Cultivate? You heard wrong, come on in, Lu Yi, come in.”
He pulled Lu Yi into the room with a look of surprise on his face.
He then eagerly looked at Lu Yi: “Did you really improve the Star Realm Army’s formation?! That is the work of many generations of our Yu family, and you managed to improve it in just a few centuries?!”
Although Yu Hanguang had no doubts about Lu Yi’s talent and knew that Lu Yi would definitely be able to improve the formation, the speed still took Yu Hanguang by surprise.
Lu Yi chuckled and nodded, “You’ll know once you look.”
Lu Yi took out the Jade Scroll and tossed it to Yu Hanguang.
As soon as Yu Hanguang caught it, he couldn’t wait to look over it. The more he read, the more shocked his expression became, filled with both astonishment and joy.
After finishing the contents of the Jade Scroll, Yu Hanguang looked up, his eyes flickering, and exclaimed in amazement, “Can such modifications truly work? Can they enhance the strength of all cultivators within the army formation?”
The revised army array, which Lu Yi improved, was based on the Yin Yang Tao Seal Secret Skill that he had deduced and comprehended.
The Yin Yang Tao Seal was different from other secret techniques. Liu Ningshuang and the others were able to merge into Tao Seals and integrate with Lu Yi because they were Taoist couples. The changes brought about by their daily Dual Cultivation centered around the Tao Yin Yang Immortal Scripture.
Without the Tao Yin Yang Immortal Scripture, this kind of secret technique would be ineffective, but apart from that technique, the Yin Yang Tao Seal also managed to amplify Liu Ningshuang and the others’ Cultivation Base, which they had used several times when they were on the Jiuyou Battlefield.
Every time it amplified their strength, their power significantly increased, to the point that they could even catch up with the Ling Luo Peak Master.
The Tao Seal contained the essence of the Yin Yang Tao, but it also incorporated formation elements.
The Yin Yang Tao within couldn’t be utilized in an army formation, after all, it required a deep understanding of the Yin Yang Law, which Liu Ningshuang and the others gained some command of with each Dual Cultivation session.
However, the cultivators of the Star Realm Army certainly couldn’t manage it.
Lu Yi chose to manifest the ever-amplifying essence of Yin and Yang through the formation. As a result, this type of army array lacked the flexibility of Liu Ningshuang and the others. It required maintaining a specific formation during combat, but at the same time, this formation wouldn’t only enhance the power of one person, like the previous Star Realm Army arrays had, but substantially elevate the strength of all cultivators within the array. Although this enhancement was less than that of the Yin Yang Tao Seal, it could still elevate each True Immortal Realm cultivator by three to five minor realms without any issue.
Lu Yi even considered, at one point, using the array to boost the Star Realm Army soldiers’ fundamental comprehension of the laws, but his current mastery of Array Tao was still somewhat lacking.
He believed that once he thoroughly integrated the Origin Power, he might be able to do so.
For now, this was as far as he could go.
Thinking this, Lu Yi felt somewhat regretful, “It’s a pity, given my current level of Array Tao and other accumulations are limited, I can’t do better. Once my strength improves further, I can make more improvements.”
Yu Hanguang, who was in the midst of delight, heard Lu Yi’s words and was momentarily lost for words, very speechless.
“That’s still considered limited?”
He opened his mouth and said with a wry smile, “Lu Yi, stop, my state of mind is about to collapse… Such improvements are already powerful enough. The previous formation could only elevate one person’s strength, which was extremely dangerous for everyone else. Now, it not only increases the strength of everyone but the degree of enhancement is even stronger than before, which is a huge increase, enough to boost the strength of the Star Realm Army several fold!”
With a serious face, Yu Hanguang said to Lu Yi, “Lu Yi, on behalf of the Yu Family, and all the soldiers of the Star Realm Army, I must thank you.”
Lu Yi chuckled, “Brother Han Guang, you’re too kind.”
Yu Hanguang also cracked a smile, “Indeed, given how close you are to my sister and even more so to our ancestor than us juniors, you’re practically one of our Yu Family, so I won’t be too formal with you.”
He put the Jade Scroll away, somewhat impatiently saying, “I need to leave for a while, return to Jade Star, and disseminate this army formation to the entire Star Realm Army as soon as possible.”
Lu Yi raised an eyebrow, his smile ambiguous, “What? No more seclusion?”
“Seclusion? I’ll just wait a bit longer, wait until your next lecture; that’s far more important.”
Yu Hanguang and Lu Yi talked as they walked out of the door. “By the way, Lu Yi, are you coming back to Jade Star with me?”
Lu Yi shook his head, “I’d better not, I still need to continue comprehending the Immortal King Scripture.”
Yu Hanguang looked envious at once.
He had heard about the Immortal Scripture but unfortunately wasn’t a cultivator of the Fire Tao, so he could only watch enviously.
“In that case, I’ll be going.”
In the end, Yu Hanguang left alone, while Lu Yi returned to his Cave Mansion to continue his cultivation.
