Chapter 448: Lynia’s Transformation, the Overbearing Taihuang Palace!



Qi Yuan’s Nascent Soul stood behind Purple Fate Xue, his expression calm: “How can you slander someone’s reputation out of thin air?”

Of course, he didn’t report her.

After all, when you pass a message to his Nascent Soul, isn’t it normal for the main body to hear it?

Purple Fate Xue looked at Qi Yuan’s Nascent Soul with suspicion but ultimately sighed: “Aren’t you quite impressive? Hurry up, comprehend a few more Supreme Supreme Truths, and take down both Taihuang Palace’s powerhouse and Molo Celestial. Then, I’ll be your concubine!”

“Tsk tsk...”

In the Supreme Truth Heaven, at the base of the Molo Clan, Qi Yuan stood in his cave abode, deep in thought.

He reached into a basin of ice-cold water, the biting chill piercing through him.

This wasn’t just ordinary water—it was an extreme cold essence. Just a single drop could freeze a cultivator at the Purple Mansion stage to death.

Now, with Qi Yuan’s hand submerged in it, he noticed that his palm was gradually transforming.

“So this is absolute adaptation, transforming to perfectly match the temperature of the ice water,” Qi Yuan observed his hand, which now seemed as cold as the water itself.

He withdrew his hand, reaching into the air. A cloud of mist appeared, and soon, a gentle rain began to fall.

In that instant, an umbrella grew out from his head, shading him from the rain.

Qi Yuan examined this and pondered, “Absolute adaptation... it’s a bit strange. I need to stabilize this Supreme Truth, engrave it deeply, and explore its potential.”

Comprehending a Supreme Truth didn’t automatically make one a Grand Supreme Truth cultivator.

Just like Black Sword, who had already grasped a Supreme Truth, but still needed time to hone his power and break through to the Supreme Truth Realm, and even further, to become a Grand Supreme Truth cultivator.

Though this path had no bottlenecks, one still needed to refine their power and solidify their Supreme Truth.

“What about Do Whatever I Want?” Qi Yuan began experimenting with his second Supreme Truth.

About an hour later, a sharp light gleamed in Qi Yuan’s eyes.

“I should be quite strong now. If I could get my hands on a powerful offensive Creation Artifact, I’d be able to hold my own in the Six Heavens.”

That afternoon, several major powers came to the Molo Clan’s domain bearing gifts.

In fact, nearly all the great forces of the Six Heavens—with the exception of Moon Palace—sent congratulatory gifts to Molo Celestial.

After all, comprehending two Supreme Truths was unprecedented. Naturally, these factions wanted to curry favor with Molo Celestial.

“I guess it’s time to attend this gathering,” Qi Yuan sighed.

If he hadn’t comprehended any Supreme Truths, he wouldn’t have even been qualified to attend the gathering that night.

Without much thought, Qi Yuan, still in the form of Molo Celestial, headed to the location of the gathering.

The gathering was set beside a tranquil lake.

Mist rose from the surface of the water, creating a peaceful and ethereal atmosphere, exuding the aura of a paradise.

As soon as Qi Yuan landed, he heard someone greeting him: “Molo Celestial, since we share the same origin, why not return to Black Demon Abyss?”

The speaker was the elegant and composed Black Sword. After comprehending his Supreme Truth, his aura had become even more profound and unfathomable.

Qi Yuan had a feeling that an ordinary Supreme Truth cultivator wouldn’t stand a chance against Black Sword.

He was quite curious about Black Sword’s Supreme Truth.

“No thanks, I’ve always been a free spirit,” Qi Yuan shook his head, declining Black Sword’s invitation.

Hearing this, Black Sword’s expression remained unchanged as he studied Molo Celestial, as if trying to see through him.

“Now that both of you are here, the gathering is complete. Please take your seats,” Wusheng Celestial’s figure appeared, his demeanor kind yet carrying a hint of respect.

Qi Yuan and Black Sword immediately stepped forward.

At the center of the lake, there were twenty-seven figures in total, including Qi Yuan.

Besides Qi Yuan, Black Sword, and Supreme Sun Celestial, the others were all Grand Supreme Truth cultivators.

As the saying goes, one Association, two Palaces, three Heavens, four Abysses, and countless Sacred Lands.

Now, nearly every Sacred Land in the Six Heavens was represented by at least one Grand Supreme Truth cultivator attending this gathering.

Or, if the Sacred Land had only one Grand Supreme Truth, they still sent someone to participate in this gathering.

This showed how high-level this event was—something Qi Yuan had never experienced before.

At this moment, more than half of the Grand Supreme Truth cultivators turned their attention to Qi Yuan, their expressions varying from curiosity to amazement and even friendliness.

“Molo Celestial, Black Sword Celestial, please take the main seats,” Wusheng Celestial reminded.

In the middle of the lake, even the seating arrangement was meticulous.

In the past, the seating was divided into three levels: one for the Supreme Truth Association, one for factions with Grand Supreme Truth cultivators who had comprehended the Supreme Supreme Truth, and another for everyone else.

That was, of course, assuming that the Grand Supreme Truth cultivators who had comprehended the Supreme Truth weren’t personally attending, and only sent representatives.

But now, with Qi Yuan, Black Sword, and Supreme Sun present, a new level of seating was introduced for the three of them.

Qi Yuan sat beside Wusheng Celestial, while Black Sword and Supreme Sun sat on either side of him.

As he looked down at the other Grand Supreme Truth cultivators, Qi Yuan’s mind raced with thoughts.

Each of these Grand Supreme Truth figures had lived for countless eons. A mere tremor from them could shatter a realm and shake the heavens.

Yet, at this moment, they gazed at the three seated figures with both respect and awe.

“Seems like I’ll need to keep my identity well-hidden. If they found out I’m still at the Purple Mansion stage, it could get very dangerous,” Qi Yuan mused.

Although he had comprehended two Supreme Truths, gaining considerable strength, he hadn’t fully solidified them nor unlocked their full potential. He also lacked an offensive Creation Artifact.

In a fight, he couldn’t take on a Grand Supreme Truth.

At that moment, Wusheng Celestial began speaking, his voice resonating across the gathering: “This Supreme Truth Discourse has seen ninety-six Yang God Celestials comprehend Supreme Truth. It is the greatest achievement in millions of years—a cause for celebration.”

He then shifted the tone of his speech.

“Moreover, Molo Celestial, Black Sword, and Supreme Sun have all comprehended Supreme Truths—a first in the history of the Six Heavens.

*And even more impressive, Molo Celestial has comprehended two Supreme Truths, something never before seen.

The seas rage and the clouds roar, the Six Heavens tremble with storms and thunder.

All the great figures, look to today!”

Wusheng Celestial exclaimed in awe.

The other Grand Supreme Truth cultivators all nodded in agreement.

This Supreme Truth Discourse would undoubtedly go down in history.

Previously, the number of Grand Supreme Truth cultivators who had comprehended a Supreme Supreme Truth in the Six Heavens could be counted on one hand. Now, three more had emerged at once.

“Since everyone has gathered, it is time for me to announce a matter of great importance for the Six Heavens.”

Wusheng Celestial’s expression turned grave as he spoke.

The other Grand Supreme Truth cultivators, sensing the gravity of his words, also adopted serious expressions.

The atmosphere in the gathering grew heavy.

Qi Yuan squinted, his curiosity piqued.

What could this significant matter be for the Six Heavens?

“The Dao of Immortality has a past and a present, but no future.”

“The Six Heavens originally consisted of five realms. The Sixth was opened by us Grand Supreme Truth cultivators.

To break free from our limitations and glimpse into the future, to step into the third stage of the Yang God, we need to create the Seventh Heaven, the Eighth, and even the Ninth.”

As beings of the Yang God Realm, these Celestials were well aware that the world did not consist solely of the Dao of Immortality or the Six Heavens.

Within the Six Heavens, there were many strange lands.

Beyond these strange lands, there were connections to other worlds and universes.

Other universes, other worlds—they cultivated the past and the present but could also glimpse the future.

Yet, in the Six Heavens, there was no future.

It was as though the future of the Six Heavens had been severed by someone.

All Yang God cultivators were stopped at the second stage of the Yang God Realm.

“The One and Only Palace opened the Six Heavens, receiving the will of the Immortal Dao, to pave the way for the future.

Now, a decree has descended from the One and Only Palace. The stars will fall, and the Six Heavens will be unsteady. The Lynia Transformation will commence, strengthening the One and Only Palace, and together, we will forge... the Dao of Immortality!”

Wusheng Celestial declared, his voice booming like divine thunder.

The expressions of all the Grand Supreme Truth cultivators changed at this.

Although they had heard rumors that the Lynia Transformation was coming, those were still just rumors. What if they weren’t true?

Now, hearing Wusheng Celestial’s words, all the Grand Supreme Truth cultivators were moved, their hearts filled with complex emotions.

But Qi Yuan, on the other hand, was utterly confused.

“What does this even mean? What is the One and Only Palace, and what is the Lynia Transformation?” Qi Yuan wondered, thoroughly perplexed.

These people were speaking of matters beyond his understanding.

At that moment, the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace spoke, his voice filled with reverence: “The One and Only Palace is located in the Seventh Heaven.”

“Wait a second, isn’t there only the Six Heavens?” Qi Yuan was baffled.

Where was this Seventh Heaven?

“The Seventh Heaven is still under construction. No living beings can enter it yet,” the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace explained.

Seeing that Qi Yuan still looked puzzled, the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace elaborated further.

“The will of the Immortal Dao is similar to the Heavenly Dao of this world, but of a much higher order.

The Six Heavens lack a future, and Yang God cultivators are stuck at the second stage.

To break this stagnation, we need to create a Ninth Heaven.

But constructing the Ninth Heaven... isn’t something that can be done at will.

Thus, the Lynia Transformation, or rather, the Lynia Calamity, was devised.”

“Could you explain it more simply?” Qi Yuan asked again.

“To put it simply, the Yang God Celestials will wage a great war. Those who perish will have their true spirits enter the One and Only Palace to aid in constructing the Seventh Heaven,” the Grand Supreme Truth from White Dragon Abyss sighed.

The Lynia Transformation was also known as the Yang God Calamity.

There were simply too many Yang God Celestials.

And the Six Heavens were far too small.

Even if the Yang Gods explored strange lands, they still couldn’t leave the Six Heavens to venture into other worlds.

The purpose of the Lynia Transformation was for Yang God Celestials to shed their lives and, in another form, enter the One and Only Palace to help build the Seventh Heaven.

The Grand Supreme Truth from White Dragon Abyss explained.

Every Lynia Transformation resulted in the deaths of Grand Supreme Truth cultivators, making it incredibly dangerous.

Hearing this, Qi Yuan was a bit dumbfounded.

Was this Immortal Dao will... the equivalent of Thanos?

Were there simply too many Yang Gods?

“The One and Only Palace opens the Lynia Transformation, but does that mean we all have to participate? Can’t we just refuse?” Qi Yuan asked, puzzled.

After all, talk of creating a Seventh Heaven or glimpsing the future seemed far removed from the concerns of most Yang Gods.

Why would ordinary Yang God Celestials support such an endeavor?

“This is the will of the Immortal Dao. How could we disobey? Or do you not want your star projection anymore?” a Grand Supreme Truth replied, his tone somber.

It was said that the star realm was connected to the will of the Immortal Dao.

All cultivators who wished to break through to the Yang God Realm needed to create a star projection and send it into the star realm, to reflect across the heavens.

Without their star projection, a Yang God’s divine avatar would struggle to maintain itself, and their powers would be severely weakened.

“More than that, the Lynia Transformation is both a calamity and an opportunity.

When the Immortal Palace opens, treasures will fall, and even Creation Artifacts could appear.

The Immortal Dao is fiercely competitive—how could we not risk our lives for a chance?” Moonlight Celestial spoke, her voice filled with intense killing intent.

Of course, she left something unsaid.

In the Immortal Palace, there were strange beings akin to demons.

Even a Yang God Celestial with the deepest of minds would succumb to demonic influence, overwhelmed by sudden waves of murderous intent.

Conflicts would be inevitable.

Moreover, even if one avoided conflict, the demonic calamity would force them into it.

Hearing this, Qi Yuan said no more.

After all, he was pretending to be Molo Celestial, and he needed to stay in character, avoiding careless remarks.

Otherwise, if Taihuang Palace discovered his true identity, it would be dangerous.

“The Lynia Transformation is imminent. The top Supreme Truths will gather to finalize the date and details. Return and make your preparations. Do not be among the fools who die and become a spirit of the One and Only Palace,” Wusheng Celestial sighed.

The title Top Supreme referred to Grand Supreme Truth cultivators who had comprehended Supreme Truths.

Every Lynia Transformation resulted in the deaths of Grand Supreme Truth cultivators, who would become spirits in the One and Only Palace, forever helping to build the Seventh Heaven.

These spirits were essentially dead, their cultivation frozen in place, like puppets.

For these Yang God Celestials, who lived freely in the Six Heavens, death and the loss of their autonomy were the worst fates imaginable.

Though the title of spirit in the One and Only Palace was prestigious, to these Yang Gods, it was a hollow honor.

At that moment, the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace suddenly smiled mysteriously: “Our Taihuang Palace also has an important announcement.”

Qi Yuan looked over at the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace.

The other Grand Supreme Truths also turned their attention to him, their expressions showing curiosity and unease.

Moonlight Celestial narrowed her eyes, her face filled with apprehension.

“The will of the One and Only Palace has decreed that this time, the Lynia Transformation...”

The Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace swept his gaze over the crowd, his expression both smug and arrogant.

“Will be overseen by Taihuang Palace!”

These few words landed with the force of thunder in the ears of the assembled Grand Supreme Truths, causing their expressions to drastically change.

Wusheng Celestial’s face was especially dramatic, full of shock.

The Lynia Transformation had never had an overseer before.

How could there be a faction overseeing it now?

After all, every faction was a participant in this deadly event, with the One and Only Palace acting as the impartial judge.

Now, Taihuang Palace was both player and judge—how was this supposed to work?

“Is this true? How can this be?” Wusheng Celestial asked urgently.

“Why would the One and Only Palace issue such a decree? How can Taihuang Palace oversee the Lynia Transformation?”

“This... makes no sense!”

Many of the Grand Supreme Truths voiced their opinions, expressing their discontent.

After all, if Taihuang Palace was to oversee the Lynia Transformation, they could already guess how it would turn out.

Moonlight Celestial’s face grew increasingly pale.

If Taihuang Palace truly were to oversee the event, Moon Palace would likely suffer significant losses.

The Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace only smiled wider: “This decree comes from the Top Supreme. There’s no falsehood here.”

Hearing this, the other Grand Supreme Truths, despite their confusion and discontent, could only accept the reality.

After all, would the Top Supreme lie about such a matter?

The atmosphere grew heavy as the assembled Grand Supreme Truths grudgingly accepted the truth. None of them looked particularly happy.

They didn’t know the inner workings of this, and they would have to rely on their Top Supreme to understand it.

This was especially true for Wusheng Celestial.

For ages, the Supreme Truth Association had been the top faction in the Six Heavens.

Now, Taihuang Palace was about to gain another Top Supreme and oversee the Lynia Transformation.

After the transformation, would Taihuang Palace become the leading power in the Six Heavens?

“There is one more thing to announce. During this Lynia Transformation, at least one Top Supreme must... ascend to the One and Only Palace,” the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace declared.

The moment these words left his mouth, the entire gathering fell silent.

Was he saying... that a Top Supreme would die?

A Top Supreme!?

In all these years, there had been fewer than five Top Supremes in the Six Heavens.

Yet, now, one of them would perish?

Moonlight Celestial looked particularly grim.

Moon Palace had always been at odds with Taihuang Palace.

Now, with Taihuang Palace making such a terrifying announcement, how could she not be alarmed?

The other Grand Supreme Truths were also visibly shaken by the news.

If ordinary Grand Supreme Truths died, they might be able to protect themselves by relying on their powerful factions.

But if even Top Supremes were destined to fall, how could the Lynia Transformation not affect them?

Black Sword’s expression grew complicated as well. He glanced at Supreme Sun and then at Qi Yuan, sensing a hint of conspiracy.

Three Yang God Celestials had all comprehended Supreme Truths this time, with the potential to become Top Supremes.

Was this pure talent?

Or a matter of destiny?

Or perhaps... a scheme?

At that moment, Supreme Sun Celestial also glanced at Black Sword and Qi Yuan, his expression inscrutable, as if hiding some deep thought.

The small gathering ended with the weight of this monumental announcement hanging over them.

Aside from the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace, the faces of the remaining Yang God Celestials weren’t very cheerful.

Qi Yuan took a glance at Moonlight Celestial, feeling an urge to ask about his master.

But he knew that now was not the time to reveal himself, so he held back.

One by one, the Grand Supreme Truths dispersed.

However, before leaving, many of them tried to increase their offers, extending olive branches to Qi Yuan in hopes of drawing him into their factions, but he turned them all down.

As he was about to leave, Supreme Sun Celestial approached him, his demeanor carefree. Looking at both Black Sword and Qi Yuan, he spoke softly: “We three all comprehended Supreme Supreme Truths. We should look out for each other.”

Black Sword and Qi Yuan both cupped their hands in acknowledgment.

Then, Supreme Sun Celestial sighed with a sense of melancholy: “We were born at the wrong time. Just as we’ve taken a step into the Grand Supreme Truth, the Lynia Transformation is upon us. Who knows... where we’ll end up.”

With those words, Supreme Sun Celestial’s figure disappeared, his retreating form looking lost and uncertain.
