Chapter 334 Bright Temple's Restraint
Following a lengthy conversation, Emperor Feng Yang was astonished to learn that Gu Lan hailed from the mortal realm.
Although Gu Lan's cultivation level remained veiled, Emperor Feng Yang knew well that one who could subdue the ancient divine phoenix couldn't possibly possess a realm lower than the imperial level.
The innate talent and aptitude were beyond question; they surely matched, if not exceeded, his own. Observing Gu Lan's apparent age, barely in their twenties, he marveled inwardly.
To attain such mastery at such a young age was a rarity in the Immortal Realm, where such talents were scarce and usually backed by significant forces and extraordinary opportunities.
The resurgence of extraterrestrial entities was palpable, and every additional ally meant an added strength.
Emperor Feng Yang treated Gu Lan and their companions with utmost courtesy, establishing a peer-like rapport with Gu Lan.
After imparting knowledge about the extraterrestrial entities, he escorted Gu Lan and the others to his celestial abode.
Emperor Feng Yang's celestial abode wasn't situated within a small realm but rather in the grandest celestial paradise of the Fengyang Immortal Domain: the spiritual mountain of the Immortal Domain, Sanxing Peak.
As the sky darkened and stars began to twinkle, Sanxing Peak revealed itself not as a single peak but as three towering summits: Tianyin Peak, Tianpeng Peak, and Tianren Peak.
These peaks, majestic and splendid, pierced the heavens, surrounded by numerous formations that harnessed the power of the celestial bodies.
Each formation gathered the radiance of countless stars, resembling resplendent celestial palaces, akin to paradises within the mortal realm.@@@@
"The deployment of heaven and earth, with the stars as mediators, seizing the essence of heaven and earth—the formations here are truly exquisite!"
Gu Lan remarked, deeply impressed by the intricate formations that integrated the principles of heaven and earth, a subject they had been recently delving into.
Observing the formations within Sanxing Peak opened new avenues of thought for Gu Lan.
"I never anticipated that Friend Gu possessed such profound knowledge of formations; it is truly astounding," remarked Emperor Feng Yang.
"Indeed, the formations within Sanxing Peak are rumored to be part of the Celestial Starry Formation, with stars as mediators and the sun and moon as eyes, yet this is only a fragment."
"These formations were incomplete relics I stumbled upon in a secluded realm many years ago. After enlisting the help of the ten most renowned formation masters in the Immortal Realm, it took a century to painstakingly complete and arrange them."
As Emperor Feng Yang reminisced, his eyes held a hint of nostalgia, tinged with admiration as he glanced at Gu Lan.
Facing Emperor Feng Yang's invitation, Gu Lan politely declined, saying, "Heaven Emperor's kindness is deeply appreciated, but I am accustomed to a leisurely life, having hailed from the mortal realm. I find it difficult to stay in one place for long."
Their travels through the Six Realms were meant to create cherished memories with their beloved, and Gu Lan had no intention of settling permanently in the Immortal Realm, let alone joining the Fengyang Immortal Domain, which would entail additional obligations and ties.
Seeing Gu Lan's firm stance, Emperor Feng Yang said no more. He led Gu Lan and their companions to a secluded chamber and retrieved a piece of shadow-carved stone.
"When the extraterrestrial entities were sealed, my cultivation was still low, and I hadn't experienced that great battle," explained Emperor Feng Yang.
"However, about a hundred thousand years ago, a scout from the extraterrestrial entities escaped from the seal. I happened to encounter it and managed to eliminate it. This is a recording of that encounter, which you may examine."
With a wave of his hand, Emperor Feng Yang activated the stone, projecting a scene wherein a monstrous creature, black as night and adorned with tentacles, could transform into various shapes, possessing strength comparable to the Emperor Realm.
It was indeed a scout from the extraterrestrial entities.
Though its strength paled in comparison to Emperor Feng Yang's, the creature's peculiar domain powers enabled it to withstand several blows from Emperor Feng Yang.
Gu Lan and Mu Yuyan watched intently. The threat posed by the extraterrestrial entities was immense; even a single entity could potentially wreak havoc upon a realm of the mortal world.
With such a crisis looming over the Six Realms, it was imperative to devise a solution swiftly. Gu Lan had no intention of waiting for the crisis to strike before taking action.
"It seems that the extraterrestrial entities are particularly wary of light-based powers," Gu Lan observed after watching the battle recorded on the stone.
During the fight, the creature did not evade any attacks from Emperor Feng Yang until he wielded a light-based imperial weapon, prompting the creature to dodge actively.
Emperor Feng Yang nodded in agreement, surprised by Gu Lan's keen insight.
As he primarily cultivated wind-based techniques and wielded predominantly wind-based artifacts, the effectiveness of the light-based artifact in the battle was not immediately apparent to him.
He had only realized its significance after prolonged reflection and analysis post-battle.
For Gu Lan to discern this detail merely from the recording on the stone spoke volumes about their exceptional combat skills.
"Indeed, the extraterrestrial entities are vulnerable to light-based powers. It is said they hail from an extremely dark domain beyond ours, possessing enigmatic abilities. Discover hidden content at My Virtual Library Empire
Each individual entity is formidable, yet they harbor a profound fear of light-based powers," Emperor Feng Yang elaborated, continuing to explain the peculiarities of the extraterrestrial entities and the unique countermeasures employed by the Bright Temple of the Immortal Realm against them.
