Fury Towards The Burning Heaven
Fury Towards The Burning Heaven - Chapter 711: Mystic Realm

The dao patterns had always been a very magical existence. It was divided into low, middle, upper, and even the legendary ultimate dao patterns. The upper-tier dao patterns could be comprehended directly or could be fused from low-tier dao patterns.

Of course, it was very difficult to directly comprehend the mid-tier dao patterns, and even more difficult for the upper-tier dao patterns. At least, Jiang Yi never heard of anyone who was able to comprehend the upper-tier dao patterns.

Dao patterns represented the laws in heaven and earth, the meanings and the truth. The more dao patterns that one realized, the higher the recognition and affinity heaven and earth had with this person. For example, one who realized the Fire-element dao patterns would be unafraid of the burning of ordinary fires. After all, he had comprehended the origin of the fire; how could fire hurt the person?

Jiang Yi’s ability was very strong. With the Thunder Fire, he was able to slaughter a bunch of low-tier Heaven Monarchs and average mid-tier Heaven Monarchs… and contend with powerful mid-tier Heaven Monarchs!

However, he depended on the Fire Spirit Pearl, treasures, and other external forces to achieve the effect. Without the Fire Spirit Pearl and Thunder Fire, his combined combat ability barely matched that of a Heaven Monarch. He hadn’t realized a lot of dao patterns, and his essence force was too little as well.

During the Kingdom War, he realized the low-tier dao pattern Binding of Wind. After that, he realized mid-tier dao pattern Wind Myriad, followed by the Power of Fire dao pattern in the Blood Night Fearsome Sea.

His speed in realizing the dao patterns was okay, and he was considered as a rather talented person. However, he was still far behind the clansmen of the Nine Thearch Clans. For example. Yin Ruobing and Yi Chan, who were around the same age as him, had reached the Heaven Monarch Realm.

To achieve the Heaven Monarch Realm, one had to realize nine low-tier dao patterns or three mid-tier dao patterns. Of course—if one was really gifted, he would just directly realize or fuse an upper-tier dao pattern. Then, his essence force cultivation just had to keep up.

One could only realize the dao patterns serendipitously. The martial artists, who were not particularly talented, couldn’t realize the dao patterns throughout their lives. The martial artists that were gifted, came from clans with powerful strange treasures, or were able to enter different mystic realms would realize the dao patterns much faster.

It took Jiang Yi a few months to grasp a chance. However, he almost gave up his opportunity just now. Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he entered the state of the Union of Heaven and Man to carefully realize the trace of dao pattern presence from the Thunder Mountains. He examined it painstakingly. Finally, he was thrilled to find other dao pattern presences hiding in this trace of dao pattern presence.

This trace of dao pattern presence was very strange. Jiang Yi previously didn’t come up with other theories and simply believed that it was just one kind of dao pattern. Therefore, he was only able to feel one intent realm and one presence.

However, after the theory that this trace of dao pattern presence was a mid-tier or upper-tier Dao pattern occurred to him, he could detect the subtle differences under close examination. There were many intent realms, many patterns, and many meanings.

“Nine, there are actually nine kinds of dao patterns. This is a fused upper-tier dao pattern! Brilliant…”

He studied it meticulously; uncontrollably, his body began to quiver slightly. The more advanced the dao pattern, the more powerful it was. If he could really realize this integrated upper-tier dao pattern, his Dao Realm would reach the Heaven Monarch Realm. When his essence force cultivation kept up, he would become a real Heaven Monarch.

Most importantly, the higher the level of the dao pattern, the more powerful it was.

For example, if one realized nine low-tier dao patterns, one could achieve the Heaven Monarch Realm. However, his combat power might be miserably weak. All the attacks that he could release were low-tier dao patterns, which were incomparable to the mid-tier dao patterns and upper-tier dao patterns even that others released.

Upper-tier dao pattern integrated nine kinds of low-tier dao patterns. However, this was not the same as one plus one equals to two. The power was much stronger than the low-tier dao patterns combined. The effect could be seen from Ba Dao’s Mother Earth Roar, and the dao pattern attacks from Chief Leng and Chief Li.

Despite the great number—if the dao patterns were not fused together, the power would be far too weak. Once they were integrated, a qualitative change would happen; and the power would increase by several times!

“Realization, realization!”

Jiang Yi didn’t care about anything now. He was planning to return to the city to preside over for a few days when Qian Wanguan was out to sell the thunder stones. Right now, he couldn’t care less about that. Anyway, Big Sister Bell was still in the city. With Feng Luan in charge and the intimidation from Lu Ping, there wouldn’t be any big problem. Realizing this dao pattern was the most important matter now. Strength was the basis for survival.

He suspended the essence force cultivation and entered the state of the Union of Heaven and Man to concentrate on separating the trace of dao pattern presence from the Thunder Mountains. He tried to divide it into nine small traces of dao pattern presences, so that he could comprehend them gradually and fuse them back in the end.

It had to be admitted that Jiang Yi was quite lucky!

Fusing the dao patterns was the most difficult task as one didn’t know what impact it would have after different dao patterns integrated with one another and exactly how to fuse them. Besides, the more the dao patterns, the more difficult it was to integrate them together. For instance, it was easy to separate two strings entwined, but it was extremely difficult to sort out nine strings that were coiled around tightly.

This trace of dao pattern presence that formed naturally in the Thunder Mountains was a template and a direction. Jiang Yi didn’t need to think of the fusion of the dao patterns, how they fused, and if something would go wrong after the fusion. He just needed to follow the instructions in this trace of dao pattern presence, realize the nine low-tier dao patterns one by one, and integrate them back.

There were a lot of magical presences in this world. For example, unique sceneries and landscapes formed in many dangerous places and the mystical dao pattern presences in them. If one had the luck to catch these dao pattern presences and successfully realize them, his speed of dao pattern realizations would increase by a lot.

People in the Stellarsky Domain called this kind of landscapes the mystic realms!

Mystic realms could be man-made—they might be congealed by absolute masters with powerful divine skills. Such mystic realms existed in the Nine Thearch Clans, which were made a place for their clansmen to cultivate dao patterns. The reason that Yin Ruobing, She Fei, Yi Chan, and their group cultivated so quickly was not only because of their talents but also, to a larger extent, because of the mystic realms.

There were also naturally occurring mystic realms, which were commonly located in the most dangerous places. Seldom could leave these places alive. However, young masters and young mistresses of distinguished clans could go in there under the protection of guards. Therefore, many descendants of the prominent clans possessed very formidable strengths as they enjoyed the resources that ordinary people didn’t have access to.

These then Thunder Mountains were clearly a site of the mystic realm. However, Jiang Yi didn’t know whether it was left by the absolute masters who built the Thunder Gathering Array or was naturally formed after being struck by thunder and lightning for tens of thousands of years.

As for… why so many people who surrounded the Thunder Mountains never sensed this trace of dao pattern presence—only Jiang Yi felt it, even Jiang Yi couldn’t figure it out.

However, he was originally a freak. The nameless cultivation techniques that he performed were strange. His dantian was different from normal people. Additionally, his body was cleansed and replaced by the Destitute Dragon Grass, and his soul spirit was different from the others’. It was not surprising that he was able to detect this trace of dao pattern presence.

Of course—!

Being able to sense this dao pattern presence didn’t mean that he was able to realize this upper-tier dao pattern. After all, he needed to successfully realize all nine low-tier dao patterns and piece them back. One didn’t just need talents to realize the dao patterns. When lucky, one might comprehend it within a night. However, if unlucky, one might be stuck for life and never attain success.

The night was approaching slowly.

Martial artists over the Thunder Mountains already returned to the city. Countless Thunder Fire surged out of the Thunder Mountains, surrounding the mountains as dazzling as lanterns. The moon was bright, and stars abounded this night. The land was bathed in silvery moonlight. The scenery was incredibly beautiful.

Jiang Yi sat on a hilltop, alone. Several months had passed; his hair and beard grew out. His fiery hair fluttered in the scorching sea breeze.

Deserted mountains, quiet night, Thunder Fire… young man.

A scene of utter desolation formed on the Sky Thunder Island.
