Lu Yin's Starry Fist had helped Progenitor Chen expand his thinking, and he wanted to expand his Starry Fist.
However, the mirage could not be completely cultivated. Battles would cause the mirage to tremble, and they were worried about triggering the River of Time. Thus, they spent most of their time cultivating outside.
Just like that, more than a hundred years passed.
Lu Yin appeared in one of the civilizations outside the three universes. He wanted to light up this civilization as a star to strengthen his Starry Fist.
The strength of the Starry Fist lay in the breadth of the Astral Fist Manual and the number of fist intents. To light up those stars, one had to continuously comprehend fist intents. Fist intents came from oneself, from the breath in one's chest, and from the comprehension of the Astral Fist Manual.
Similarly, the difficulty of the Starry Fist lay in the fist intents, as there were too many of them.
The wider the Astral Fist Manual was, the more fist intents there were, but comprehending fist intents was not that easy.
Lu Yin walked through the civilization and looked at the strange creatures of this civilization. He looked at the stars and tried to understand the civilization and light up the stars. This was the path that he wanted to take. At the same time, this path would also allow him to build a high wall of his heart.
Every civilization had its own characteristics.
For example, the civilization that he was in now had no lies. It was as if there were no lies in these creatures. It could also be said that lies could not be born in this civilization.
There were no lies, and many of them were gone, but there were also many more.
The sincerity of every creature allowed this civilization to develop in a healthy direction. Any creature that had thoughts that were unfavorable to their own civilization would not be able to hide it. However, this civilization's development was extremely slow.
Without lies, there would be no scheming, no creation, and a lot more.
Lu Yin walked under the stars and experienced a world without lies. In the end, he realized that he was not used to this world.
Next.
The star chart that Progenitor Lu Yuan and the others had drawn included many civilizations. It seemed like it was only a few hundred years away from the Eternal Realm, but if one was not an Eternal Realm, it would be impossible to travel from one civilization to another.
The spiritualized universe and the Tianyuan Universe were very close to each other, and even a Bitter Adversity powerhouse would need a long time to cross.
This was a distance that even an Eternal Realm expert would need to spend a hundred years or more to cross.
Even if there were very few civilizations within the Star Chart, there were still many civilizations within this range.
Lu Yin walked from civilization to civilization at a fast pace. He constantly lit up his Astral Fist Manual and also increased the range of his star chart.
It could be said that the future of the Starry Sky Fist was promising.
…
In the Continent of the Nine Clouds, in Ye Hai, in the Red Leaves Forest, Hong 'er was seated on a stone bench. She slowly raised her hand. The red leaves had changed.
She turned her head and looked in a certain direction. That was where Chu Song Yun was in seclusion.
Chu Songyun had come to the three universes to travel around. In the end, after becoming Lu Yin's disciple, he had chosen this place as his training ground. Back then, he had obtained Qinglian Yu's approval.
The first time he had come here, it was to see Hong 'er.
Hong 'er was a descendant of Jiu Wen's disciple from the Pond Civilization. That Pond Civilization had been abandoned by the Green Lotus Ruler, and she had remained here as a chess piece. In the end, she was used as a bait to plot against Red Hero. It could be said that Hong' er did not seem to be of much use, but she was actually indispensable.
Chu Song Yun wanted to meet her because she acknowledged his identity as a Red Specter under the Stars, but she did not completely belong to the Red Specter under the Stars.
Moreover, this woman had dared to question Yong Sheng at the Startling Sparrow Terrace. Not everyone had this kind of courage.
After coming here, Chu Song Yun realized that this place was especially suitable for him to cultivate. The battle skill that he cultivated was called
Solar Pine Withered Leaf Domain. This entire Red Leaves Forest was filled with withered leaves, and it was located in the Karma Sea. It was the most ideal place to cultivate.
After obtaining Qinglian Yu and Lu Yin's approval, he had stayed here. Of course, he had also obtained Hong 'er's approval. Hong' er was also very curious about Chu Song Yun's cultivation method. She had heard that he cultivated the true Emotionless Dao.
The past few hundred years had been very peaceful, but recently, the Red Leaves Forest seemed to have changed.
Every withered leaf was falling at a slower speed. It had nothing to do with the wind or gravity. It was as if the withered leaves were unwilling to leave the tree.
Hong 'er took a withered leaf and immediately felt a myriad of emotions. Her eyes turned red, and she looked at Chu Song Yun's training ground again. She knew that the changes here were related to this person.
He had affected the withered leaves, the Red Leaves Forest, and even herself.
Cheng!
The sword hummed softly, and a red light swept across the world. Hong 'er looked at the red light that flashed in front of her and seemed to see her own reflection in it.
The red light flashed, and the sword's edge flashed. Chu Song Yun had come out of seclusion at some point. He grabbed the sword's hilt and looked at it in a daze.
Outside Ye Hai, figures appeared one after another. They were Xue Ta Shangyu, Xue Men Shangyu, and the others.
There was also a fish, Ba Rong. When the red light flashed in front of its eyes, it was almost scared to death. At that moment, it felt as if it was facing a terrifying monster.
Chu Song Yun faced everyone and bowed slowly, "I'm trying to break through to immortality. Seniors, please help to limit the aftermath and not affect the innocent."
Xue Ta Shangyu's eyes lit up, "Just do it. Leave the rest to us."
"Thank you, senior."
Chu Song Yun retracted his gaze and looked at the sword in his hand. More than three hundred years ago, his master had personally handed this sword to him. Since the moment he received this sword, he knew that he was getting closer to breaking through to immortality.
He was getting closer.
Originally, he was an ultimate powerhouse below immortality. He had fought with He Xiao before, and was only one step away from immortality. This step was impossible for Underworld Hong Yi in the past, but it was different now.
He was walking the true Emotionless Dao, and within this sword, there was also Base Master Hong Shuang's Emotionless Dao.
It was time to try to break through to immortality.
Self-breakthrough to immortality was different from stepping into immortality with the help of the universe's reboot.
With the help of the universe's reboot, one had to constantly repeat the process of origin and decay with immortal matter to give birth to life energy. As one's realm transformed, the life energy would grow and multiply endlessly.
As for self-breakthrough, everyone was different. It depended on each person's understanding of immortality and the degree of self-cultivation.
Mr. Mu broke through by sitting in the cauldron and sinking into the river of time for many years before finally taking that step.
But in the end, he still had to return to the Ninth Stronghold.
When Chu Song Yun broke through at this moment, Jingmen Shangyu thought of this and hurriedly reminded him, "If you want to enter immortality, shouldn't you return to the universe where you were born?"
Chu Song Yun slowly let go of the sword hilt, "With it here, there's no need."
After saying that, the surroundings were instantly filled with withered leaves. Some came from the Red Leaves Forest, but most of them were formed by the Emotionless Dao. The withered leaves continued to spread toward the entire Nine Heavens Universe.
The withered leaves did not need to be stopped as they would not cause any damage to civilization.
Chu Song Yun sat cross-legged as the withered leaves scattered all over the world. In front of him, the red sword floated, and an umbrella opened behind him. It was not Jiu Wen's umbrella, but his own. The Emotionless Dao Red Umbrella used the Emotionless Dao as its frame.
As the red umbrella closed, the withered leaves between heaven and earth stopped. Countless people looked at the floating withered leaves in confusion.
Someone reached out and touched it. In an instant, their gaze shifted to the red umbrella.
They saw a different world, and Chu Song Yun's gaze shifted to that person. He felt that person's joys and sorrows. There were emotions in the world, but walking the Emotionless Dao was not really emotionless. The point was not emotionless, but the opposite of emotions.
What was the difference between the Emotionless Dao of the Second Stronghold and the Emotionless Dao of the Red Dress under the Stars?
Why was one right?
Why was one wrong?
In the past, Chu Song Yun did not know why his Emotionless Dao was right. He was only determined to walk on this path. Step by step, he followed his heart. His closed heart and innate characteristics made his Emotionless Dao right. In fact, this so-called right was not the Emotionless Dao itself, but his innate talent. As long as he did not pursue true Emotionless Dao, it was right.
The Red Clothes under the Stars had the Emotionless Dao, but Hong Shuang was the most emotionless!
The Emotionless Dao was actually very simple. It was so simple that no one would believe it. This was the Second Stronghold's return to simplicity. Emotionlessness was just a term. Emotionlessness was still a type of emotion.
In the past, Chu Song Yun did not understand. But now, he did.
He felt Hong Shuang's Emotionless Dao in the sword, and it completely refreshed his understanding. He also saw his own essence. So this was the Emotionless Dao.
Countless people touched the withered leaves. He saw the gazes of countless people and felt their hearts at this moment. Some were happy, some were sad. All kinds of emotions filled their hearts. He saw clearly that there was love, and he also saw clearly that there was no love.
One umbrella frame connected to the red umbrella.
Eight umbrella frames, and the eighth was the Emotionless Dao.
In the legends of the Red Clothes under the Stars, seventy percent of the Emotionless Dao was eternal life. However, there were people with extraordinary talent who could comprehend the seventh part of the Emotionless Dao while not in the Eternal Realm. Such people were rare, but they existed. Red Hero was one of them. Chu Song Yun was also one of them. Back then, he had revealed the seventh part of the umbrella frame in his battle with He Xiao.
However, no one had ever held up the eighth part of the umbrella frame without being in the Eternal Realm.
Now, Chu Song Yun had done it.
He had not broken through to the Eternal Realm, but he had connected the eighth part of the umbrella frame, surpassing Red Hero. It was rare.
If it were not for the unknown history of the second barrier, Chu Song Yun might be recognized as the only person in the history of the Emotionless Dao who had connected eight umbrella frames while not in the Eternal Realm.
When the eighth part of the umbrella frame was connected, Alarmed Gate Shangyu and the others were shocked.
They knew very well that even if Chu Song Yun had not broken through to the Eternal Realm, he must be at the level of a rogue at this moment. He was definitely a rogue who could kill ordinary Eternal Realm experts.
Ba Yue looked at Chu Song Yun, and her eyes were full of shock.
Eight umbrella frames, not in the Eternal Realm. Could this person reach the level of Hong Shuang?
Inside the red umbrella, Chu Song Yun's eyes widened, and his aura suddenly rose. Everyone felt the impact of the Emotionless Dao. It was different from the coldness that they imagined. The Emotionless Dao could also give people warmth.
Vitality surged out, and Chu Song Yun officially stepped into the Eternal Realm. He grabbed the sword hilt, and an indescribable vast force instantly shrouded the three universes. This force made everyone in awe. It was a terrifying force that they had never felt before.
Mister Mu's eyes narrowed. Was this the power of Old Ancestor Shan?
He had felt the power of Old Ancestor Shan before. It was in accordance with the laws of the three universes and was invincible.
Now, he felt a similar power again.
That sword belonged to Hong Shuang. This was Hong Shuang's Emotionless Dao.
Therefore, Chu Song Yun did not need to go to Hong Shuang's universe under the stars. Hong Shuang's Emotionless Dao was the most authentic Emotionless Dao. That sword could make up for everything.
