Chapter 367: Red Heaven, Azure Heaven, and Mysterious Heaven

“Master! Please do not act rashly!”

“Her body is connected to the order of heaven and earth; even a simple sword swing cannot be executed in her presence!”

The voice of Tomorrow suddenly echoed, carrying a hint of panic.

Unable to swing the sword, her Slice Strike true name would have no effect, and as a Tomorrow series Dao Artifact, her rules did not allow for forced domination.

(I can see that too…)

“Senior, please speak. I will listen attentively.”

Yun Ye humbly submitted, understanding the situation.

In this Red Heaven realm, one could disrespect everything, but one must never disrespect power.

What kind of Powerful Figure was this silver-haired woman?

After ten thousand years, she could still interfere with bloodline inheritance, allowing an ordinary person to give birth to a child similar to her, even influencing Yuexin’s consciousness from afar to have her summon Yun Ye to open the Secret Realm.

None of this was coincidence.

“Hmm, it is clear that you are a teachable junior. Achieving this level in your generation, you indeed have the right to inherit the teachings of my Gate of Heaven of the Crescent Moon. It’s only natural to be a bit proud!”

The silver-haired woman rose and gazed at the blazing sun in the sky. “The Extreme Spiritual Law you possess is a method unmastered even in our time. Great talents emerge in each generation. Although your Founder’s power was weak, his talent was unmatched. He carved a New Dao with his own strength. If it were our time…”

“Hmm, if it were our time, your tiny New Dao would not survive, nor would there be an opportunity to create a new path.”

This garden, with its blazing sun and blooming flowers, appeared merely as a beautiful resting spot.

But this was a domain, a unique space created by the silver-haired woman; she recreated a scene from the past. In this realm, she could accomplish so much…

Reading memories was just one of her abilities.

Yun Ye fell silent; if not for the majority of his memories being in the Rebirth Book, he would have exposed himself in that brief moment.

In such a situation, it was difficult for him to find the courage to speak; his power felt too weak, like a flame in the cold winter, ready to be extinguished at any moment.

“What’s wrong? Aren’t you going to ask why I went to such lengths to speak with you?”

“Why?”

“Because the moments of reincarnation have arrived. You have been lying dormant without any corresponding inheritance, so it is natural you do not understand the significance of the moments of reincarnation.”

“Moments of reincarnation?”

Yun Ye’s eyes shifted slightly.

In his previous life, he learned of this concept through Lan Wuyin, which led to his sealing in the Rebirth Book.

In this life, even if he contemplated the moments of reincarnation, it would not leave an imprint in this life’s mind, so the silver-haired woman had not accessed that information.

“That’s right. Every ten or several thousand years, when the echoes accumulate to their peak, it marks a moments of reincarnation. A great war will sweep across the entire Red Heaven realm. In the end, the victor emerges to become a True Immortal or fails in the ascension ceremony, waiting for the next moments of reincarnation.”

“My Gate of Heaven of the Crescent Moon once participated in the dual emperors’ clash, once having a glimmer of hope to achieve assistance in the Dao…”

The silver-haired woman shook her head and did not continue. It was not that she did not want to speak, but that she could not.

She changed the subject. “The reason I have preserved my power until now is that I failed back then, yet I am unwilling to give up, so I left behind my power in hope of revival.”

“You can still revive?!” Yun Ye’s expression changed.

"Are you joking? If you could easily leave behind power to revive, wouldn’t this world be filled with chaos?"

“All these old monsters?”

“The way of revival is different from what you imagine,” the silver-haired woman said, sensing Yun Ye’s shock. She shook her head. “I have already died, leaving only a Thought form. The Thought form is not my true self. Reviving through thought only creates a being similar to me, not my actual resurrection.”

“This world does not allow the power of death and rebirth to exist. No matter what Secret techniques are used, they cannot transcend life and death. There will always be enormous side effects: transformations into demons, loss of personality, soul disintegration, and decayed bodies. Everything prevents death and rebirth.”

“Theoretically, I cannot come back to life, and practically, that is indeed true. So I can only cultivate an heir and pass my power down. Don’t ask why… I am already dead, and the Gate of Heaven of the Crescent Moon has been completely destroyed. Besides leaving behind power, what else can I do?”

“What do you need me to do?” Yun Ye directly skipped over the small talk. Leaving power behind surely had a purpose, and there was no need for feigned politeness.

“Good, straightforward!” The silver-haired woman laughed heartily, disregarding her image. She turned to face Yun Ye. “You truly have talent. Even in the face of power that far exceeds your imagination, you show no fear. For this reason, I am willing to entrust my power to you.”

“As the heir of the New Dao, without my power, everything you value will come to an end in three days! Do you think you can develop under the rule of the old powers? There’s no such good fortune!”

Yun Ye felt a heaviness in his heart.

Although the truth of this time was uncertain, the Tomorrow Society had already guessed. They would surely face great calamity.

Such calamity was difficult for the Tomorrow Society to handle; countless sacrifices could be foreseen.

Knowing this future placed tremendous pressure on Yun Ye, driving him to grow faster.

If it were true, just three days from now, the Tomorrow Society would face disaster. How should he respond at this moment?

It was unimaginable!

“Do not worry; my Gate of Heaven of the Crescent Moon embodies freedom, and any desire requires power as support. A great desire like freedom is even more so.”

“The Luo Dynasty is merely a group of dying people fighting for scraps in the ruins. As long as you inherit my power from the Gate of Heaven of the Crescent Moon, they are nothing.”

Then you will take everything from me?

Yun Ye had this thought flash through his mind but kept silent.

Even as a fleeting thought, the silver-haired woman caught it. She did not elaborate but smiled instead. “I am Yin Yue Kong, the master of the Gate of Heaven of the Crescent Moon. I came here ten thousand years later for a single intention.”

She raised her hand and touched Yun Ye’s forehead, infusing a stream of divine light directly into Yun Ye’s mind.

Yun Ye felt nothing and looked at Yin Yue Kong with uncertainty.

“I have sealed what I wish to achieve within your consciousness. Once you possess the strength to accomplish this task, the sealing will naturally lift. Haha, do not think of unsealing it prematurely; the consequences may be beyond your tolerance.”

Yin Yue Kong said with a smile.

Though under normal circumstances, Yun Ye would never be able to unseal it himself due to her power, she still reminded him, just in case. Otherwise, her arrangements would lose all meaning.

“Next, should I accept the power? The Spiritual Law of the Free Heaven Gate?”

Yun Ye accepted this outcome.

“Indeed, you will accept power. But the Spiritual Law? Haha, that’s an ancient law from ten thousand years ago, which you cannot use now; it would kill you! However, if you want to experience it, I don’t mind. I can still save you, but the power you inherit will be greatly reduced.”

Yin Yue Kong laughed, seemingly recalling some past events.

However, Yun Ye could not find any joy in this.

“The laws from ten thousand years ago cannot be used by people now? How is that possible? I am clearly using the Nine Lives Spirit Law, and it’s working perfectly!”

Yun Ye said in a low voice.

The Nine Lives Spirit Law Classics had been around for many years, far surpassing ten thousand, yet it still functioned!

“The methods that fall from the Dao Classics are different. They change with the times, recording the world’s truth rather than being written by humans.”

“You hold the Nine Lives Spirit Law Classics, possess Innate Spiritual Law and Spiritual Intelligence. It shows you are also a wielder of great fortune. The classics chose you, believing you could complete its Dao. This is your greatest opportunity; only the Extreme Spiritual Law could be compared to it.”

“What a pity! What a pity! If I had known about the Extreme Spiritual Law ten thousand years ago, the outcome would not have been like this!”

Yin Yue Kong did not hide her admiration for the founder of the Extreme Spiritual Law.

This method was indeed powerful and held endless potential, analyzing the way of cultivation from another direction. Too bad it wasn’t a Dao Classic.

“Was there a method comparable to the Extreme Spiritual Law ten thousand years ago? What exactly is the legendary Dao Classic? Why isn’t the law of ten thousand years ago applicable now?”

Yun Ye suddenly asked.

“You aren’t being polite. But to reach the strongest, this is indeed something you need to know.”

Yin Yue Kong glanced at Yun Ye and answered the questions.

The first question: Was there a method comparable to the Extreme Spiritual Law ten thousand years ago?

The answer was no.

The Extreme Spiritual Law clearly pointed to the ultimate method of integrating yin-yang and the five elements, while the strongest methods from ten thousand years ago could not achieve this and relied solely on innate physical qualities.

The five-element body was the strongest physical quality of the past, but it only contained the five elements and Spirit Law, without incorporating Physical Law.

The second question: What exactly is the legendary Dao Classic?

The Dao Classic represents the method by which True Immortals attain Dao, possessing part of the rules and powers from their ascension, governing portions of the order in the Red Heaven realm.

A single Dao Classic can determine the heavens and the earth, the power to establish a unified Celestial Empire.

However, the Dao Classic chooses its master. Without an opportunity, even cultivators of the Royal Path and Holy Path cannot find the Dao Classic.

According to Yin Yue Kong’s speculation, True Immortals might even be unable to interfere, for if the Dao Classic contains parts of their powers and all their inheritance, why would it remain on earth?

It makes no sense.

They do not take the Dao Classic because they cannot take it, not because they do not want to.

The third question: Why is the law from ten thousand years ago not applicable now?

“This involves the secrets of the entire world. This realm is actually divided into three heavens: the Red Heaven, the Blue Heaven, and the Mystic Heaven, from low to high.”

“Cultivation involves crossing these three heavens, achieving supremacy in the Red Heaven realm.”

“Mystic Realm cultivators correspond to the Mystic Heaven.”

“True Realm cultivators correspond to the Blue Heaven.”

“Honored Position cultivators correspond to the Red Heaven.”

“To traverse all three heavens and completely descend to the earth is the Holy Path.”

“To rise through all three heavens and break into the outer universe is the Royal Path.”

“Most cultivators practice the Royal Path, following the sequence of Mystic Heaven, Blue Heaven, and Red Heaven, constantly climbing until their own Dao permeates the Red Heaven realm and breaks out of the universe.”

“But unfortunately, the three heavens are not static; they are constantly changing. To adapt to the three heavens, one must continuously modify their methods. A method sealed for millennia diverges too much from the original Dao. If one cultivates it, they will either die or become a demon; there is no other possibility.”

Yin Yue Kong explained everything.

“Is it really like that?” Yun Ye questioned.

The Red Heaven, Blue Heaven, Mystic Heaven—these clearly appeared after True Immortals achieved Dao, but the era of the Red Heaven did not have these yet it still achieved the Royal Path supremacy.

If that were the case, did the Red Heaven lack three realms entirely?

To cross three realms and slay the king of the Manifest Realm?

After all, why does crossing the three heavens grant power?
