The biggest gain from Shen Yuan’s trip to the Yunfu Mountain Range was undoubtedly the second divine skill of Earth Fiend, Gods Purging.

He initially thought he was just killing an old demon hidden in a ring, but it turned out to involve a Demon Path Giant from ten thousand years ago.

Although Shen Yuan had to pay a cost of a strand of Qi from the Great Sun’s True Flames, and his Primordial Spirit was injured, obtaining the second divine skill of Earth Fiend could definitely be considered a blessing in disguise.

As for the Gods Purging divine power, Shen Yuan currently only has a rough understanding of its essence and has developed the Imperial Decree of Truth, a method that uses the Laws of Heaven and Earth to control others.

But in reality, Shen Yuan’s Gods Purging has not even reached the First Peek Basic Access level.

One decree can command all the mountain gods and establish the laws of heaven and earth. Even the Heavenly Court Canonical Gods who control the earth’s veins must obey Shen Yuan’s orders.

These means have not enabled the Gods Purging to truly cross the boundary into the realm of First Peek Basic Access. Shen Yuan is very much looking forward to what the scene will be like once he gets into the Gods Purging.

Among the four divine skills that Shen Yuan currently has, Pot’s Heaven Divine Power that he has most deeply cultivated has reached the second stage of Reaching Inner Hall Induction Level, allowing him to readily create a space in his sleeve. The ability to create Storage Rings at will is also a significant source of Shen Yuan’s wealth.

The Earth Fiend Sword Art, due to its high threshold, remains at the initial stage of First Peek Basic Access. Furthermore, due to injuries to his Primordial Spirit, Shen Yuan’s improvement in the Earth Fiend Sword Art has been stagnating. Once his Primordial Spirit recovers, this divine skill will inevitably become Shen Yuan’s method of killing and self-defense.

The Rain Calling divine ability, as a fragmented Heavenly General Great Divine Power, Shen Yuan still has not stepped into the first realm of First Peek Basic Access, largely because this divine power is too powerful, and Shen Yuan, despite his efforts, finds it difficult to truly control. If he is not careful, he can turn a region into a grand lake country.

Even the previous holder of the Rain Calling divine ability, Yunmeng Dragon Monarch, could not truly control this great divine power.

As for the last Divine Skill, Gods Purging, Shen Yuan is yet to master it.

Essentially speaking, the strength of Gods Purging divine power does not lie in the divine power itself, but in the fact that, for countless epochs, the Heavenly Court had constantly promoted the Incense Offering Divinity Path, which has now spread throughout all realms.

Gods Purging Divine Power, as the source law of the Incense Offering Divinity Path, has also risen with the power of the Heavenly Court and can command deified beings.

If the Incense Offering Divinity Path declines and there are no incense offering deities, the effect that Gods Purging Divine Power can have might not even compare to Pot’s Heaven Divine Power.

It will be a long process in the future to comprehend Gods Purging Divine Power and to fully stimulate it into subsequent stages.

“However, there was indeed some good luck on this trip to the Yunfu Mountain Range. The Gods Purging divine power, which has not yet been mastered, does have some flaws and can easily be spotted by outsiders.

Once someone figures out the essence of the Gods Purging divine power, it will undoubtedly cause a great calamity. It is not impossible that all the deities from the Primal Chaos Realm will chase and kill me at that time.”

Considering this, Shen Yuan couldn’t help but feel relieved.

Among the many incense offering deities in the Lower Realm, the highest ones control a divine system as Divine Monarchs, who are comparable to Immortals in terms of personal strength and command countless deities under them, making them the lords of a region.

Just below the Divine Monarchs are God Honors, who usually occupy a range of mountains and waters and gather a large number of deities under their command, enough to have the initial form of a small divine system.

But due to reasons such as the strength of the God Honor, the edict from Heavenly Court, etc., God Honor can only serve under the Divine Monarch and cannot be considered the true master of a divine system.

In terms of rank, the Yunfu Mountain Lord already qualifies to be a God Honor. Yunfu Mountain Range stretches for thousands of miles with a vast terrain, and under its command are thirty-two Mountain Gods, each governing a region.

But the problem is that when Yunfu Mountain Lord was canonized by the Heavenly Court as a Canonical God, it was not yet born. And after it was born, it had already lost all connection with the Heavenly Court.

Without the Heavenly Court, naturally, it lost the qualification to be canonized as a God Honor, and could only become a Canonical God of the Heavenly Court.

The third rank naturally belongs to Canonical Gods. Although the rank gap does not seem significant, there are still many twists and turns involved.

The biggest issue among them is the differentiation between Incense Offering Canonical Gods and Heavenly Court Canonical Gods.

Incense Offering Canonical Gods are those conferred by Divine Monarchs and God Honors, and can only be recognized as Incense Offering Canonical Gods within a certain territory. After being conferred, there is a hierarchical relationship between Incense Offering Canonical Gods and Divine Monarchs and God Honors.

On the other hand, Heavenly Court Canonical Gods are the lowest deity rank conferred by the Heavenly Court. There is no subordinate relationship between them and the Divine Monarchs and God Honors. Divine Monarchs and God Honors can neither command nor revoke the position of a Heavenly Court Canonical God.

As for the fourth rank, it belongs to categories such as Desolate Gods and local deities.

Yunfu Mountain Lord, who holds the position of class three Heavenly Court Canonical God, controls the great situation of the earth’s veins, and in this era of isolation from heaven and earth, he is already considered a great deity.

And the thirty-two Mountain Gods under his command are Desolate Gods. It is perfectly normal for them to not see through the essence of Gods Purging divine power and see Shen Yuan as a Divine Monarch.

If a God Honor were to come instead, they might be able to see through it.

Therefore, before mastering Gods Purging divine power, Shen Yuan will minimize the use of the essence of Gods Purging divine power to avoid exposure to the outside world.

“As for the cultivation and improvement of the Gods Purging divine power, I have some new ideas, but I still need to try them out later.”

Thinking this way, he looked at the second biggest gain from this journey, a celestial elemental Qi named Zhuming Chengye.

Zhuming Chengye is a lower Yin-Yang Qi associated with the Great Sun’s True Flames. For Shen Yuan, who cultivates the Earth Fiend Sword Art, it is undoubtedly a rare treasure.

However, since his Primordial Spirit is injured, Shen Yuan is temporarily unable to use the Primordial Spirit Sword Control Method to execute the union of the sword and Elemental Qi. Therefore, he will be unable to fully utilize Zhuming Chengye for a while.

Yet, just because Shen Yuan can’t use it for now does not mean that another item can’t.

Thinking about this, space fluctuated at Shen Yuan’s fingertips, and a bronze ancient sword covered with rust appeared in his hand.

This was the first time Shen Yuan had drawn the Darkness-Light Sword since the day he slashed out the Great Sun’s True Flaming Sword, which integrated the sword with Elemental Qi.

Shen Yuan could clearly see that under the influence of the Great Sun’s True Flames Sword, a considerable amount of the patchy rust on the Darkness-Light Sword had visibly fallen off.

The Candle Dragon carved into the sword grid position had a glimmer of light flashing intermittently in its eyes.

Shen Yuan could clearly remember that after the Qi of the Great Sun’s True Flames merged into the Darkness-Light Sword, the entire sky over Yunfu Mountain Range had switched from night to day.

Shen Yuan suspected that this was not just the power of Qi from the Great Sun’s True Flames, but also the inherent ability of the Darkness-Light Sword itself.

The Darkness-Light Sword is also known as the Candle Dragon Immortal Sword; the Candle Dragon, with an open eye equals day and closed eye equals night, is one of the ancient great gods.

The injection of the Qi from the Great Sun’s True Flames turned day into night, exactly in line with the power possessed by the Candle Dragon.

Moreover, at that time, Shen Yuan saw that the eyes of the Candle Dragon inscriptions on the sword grid were open, proving this point.

“Since the Qi of the Great Sun’s True Flames could stimulate the Candle Dragon Inscription, Zhuming Chengye, as the symbol of heaven and earth Qi, of the concept of day and night’s alternation, could possibly be more compatible with the Candle Dragon Immortal Sword.”

With this in mind, Shen Yuan reached out and picked up the miniature sun transformed by Zhuming Chengye, slowly placed this precious Qi of heaven and earth into the gaping mouth of the Candle Dragon Inscription on the sword grid.

As the scorching mini-sun was swallowed by the Candle Dragon Inscription, Shen Yuan could feel that the Darkness-Light Sword did not digest Zhuming Chengye, but preserved it in a special way.

Then the Candle Dragon Inscription on the sword grid flickered, and a brilliance resembling the Great Sun gradually rose in the dragon’s eyes, as if a slumbering Divine Dragon had opened its eyes.

In the secret realm space, the star-filled sky created by the Sainthood Attainment Enlightenment Array Formation darkened, replaced by a daytime identical to the outside world.

Shen Yuan was even able to feel the fluctuations of heaven and earth brought about by the change of day and night, and easily captured a strand of the weak Morning Glow Purple Qi from the sky.

“The alternating day and night? This is not a simple illusion, but a real change in the celestial phenomenon?”

Shen Yuan was greatly shocked.

The change of day and night signifies not just the alternation of day and night, but represents the complete Dao of Heaven and Earth.

The Darkness-Light Sword can now only use Zhuming Chengye as the medium, executing in this small secret realm, but this still represents unimaginable potential.

If the Darkness-Light Sword is already capable of this before it fully awakens, then if the Candle Dragon Immortal Sword’s power is restored will it be able to change the celestial phenomenon in the outside world?

Commanding the Dao of Heaven and Earth, the Divine Arts related to the alternation of day and night could be infinitely enhanced under it, the essence behind this is simply unimaginable.

“As expected of an Immortal treasure higher than a Sect-suppression Taoist Device, the profound abilities it possesses are far beyond imagination.”

Gently running his finger over the blade of the Darkness-Light Sword, a sudden thought flashed in Shen Yuan’s mind:

“Maybe, you have another purpose.”

With a wave of his right hand, the Darkness-Light Sword flew straight into the sky of the Courtyard Secret Realm.

Once it reached the sky, the Darkness-Light Sword seemed to integrate into this secret realm space.

“Light!”

Shen Yuan tapped his index finger lightly on the stone table. As he controlled the Darkness-Light Sword to stimulate Zhuming Chengye, a scorching sun quietly appeared in the sky.

The sun was so real that the fluctuations of heaven and earth emanating from it were no different from a normal sun, except that it was much smaller.

“Dark!”

As the words fell again, Zhuming Chengye’s glow converged and a panorama of galaxies simulated by the Sainthood Attainment Enlightenment Array Formation appeared in the sky.

One light, one dark, changing the day and night in an instant, the fluctuations of the celestial rules were clear to see.

If someone was practicing related Divine Skills, they would definitely gain insight from this.

This scene made Shen Yuan couldn’t help but marvel:

“Although the celestial changes at the moment only remain on the surface, and I cannot use the Earth Fiend Sword Art to operate it, it is quite interesting.

With the Natural Spirit Pool, Sainthood Attainment Enlightenment Array Formation, and changes in celestial phenomena included, I’m afraid even the usual grotto-heaven blessed lands do not have this treatment.

This secret realm is becoming more and more like a budding grotto-heaven blessed land.”

With this thought, Shen Yuan had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and among the numerous spirit objects auctioned off in Yunfu Street, he found a valuable piece of Thunderstruck Wood.

This piece of Thunderstruck Wood was struck by heavenly thunder but regenerated amidst destruction, embodying a theme of rebirth in dead wood in spring, the lightning patterns all over it made it an excellent treasure for refining Swords.

Shen Yuan spent a total of 2000 spirit stones to snatch this treasure from the Talisman Sword Sect.

Shen Yuan operated the Earth Fiend Sword Art, using his finger as a brush, he wrote a large string of characters on the Thunderstruck Wood, then with a wave of his sleeves, the Thunderstruck Wood turned into a plaque and was hung outside the courtyard.

On the plaque, the lightning patterns and abundant sword qi joined together to form seven big characters.
