Chapter 1225: Great Samsara Millstone

He was blinded, muted, and unable to move!
Luo Yunyang was like a living dead person, but it seemed like his mind power had increased tremendously while he was in this state.
Although his mind power was suppressed by boundless spiritual essence that couldn’t be expelled from his body easily, he still had unhindered perception.
“What did you encounter in there?” This voice belonged to a middle-aged man in his fifties clad in golden armor.
He stood in the void, and his cultivation level was actually at the eighth level of the Heavenly Venerate!
Eighth-level Heavenly Venerates were nothing in the Taixu Sect, but he was still a high-level martialist in the Eastern Sacred Sky Lands.
While it was still possible for Tashan and the rest to defeat an eighth-level Heavenly Venerate when they teamed up, they still shuddered in fear when they saw him.
They were afraid of this eighth-level Heavenly Venerate.
What they feared wasn’t the cultivation base of the Heavenly Venerate but the Tian Family that was behind him. Although the Tian Family would very likely suffer huge losses for what had happened in the Sky and Wind Valley, they were still a family that shouldn’t be offended.
“Sir, we saw the sky crumbling and the earth shattering. Countless Yuan Crystal Beasts died, and countless spiritual influence vanished.”
Liyuan answered after hesitating for a moment.
The eighth-level Heavenly Venerate nodded. “You are all very lucky you were able to come out alive. Tell me where you’re from and you can leave. Remember, if anyone asks you what happened, recount it clearly and say what you saw.”
Liyuan and his team, who were perspiring, relaxed slightly after hearing what the man said. Being stopped was a nerve-wracking experience for them.
They really dared not think about what the Tian Family would do after such ma.s.sive changes occurred. They might not be able to seek redress for their grievances if the Tian Family were to silence them in order to hide stuff.
They would be doomed to die if that happened.
“Thank you, sir,” Liyuan replied with full sincerity.
“It really wasn’t easy for all of you to survive such a ma.s.sive event.” The eighth-level Heavenly Venerate sighed.
As he said that, his gaze landed on Luo Yunyang’s body, which was lying in the cart. After discovering that Luo Yunyang was still breathing, he said, “It seems that this friend of yours is pretty fortunate as well.”
“Go on!”
Liyuan and his team said nothing after they left the eighth-level Heavenly Venerate. They only fully relaxed upon entering a town 100,000 miles away.
It could be said that their journey out of this dire land had been even more nerve-wracking.
“It seems like the Tian Family still needs people like us,” said the honest-looking man with an intelligent sparkle in his eyes.
“This concerns only those big shots. What we have to do now is find a place to rest.” Liyuan gestured with a wave.
Although Liyuan had said that they should rest, they did not stop in the town ahead of them. Instead, they continued for a million miles before entering a large city.
Tashan and the rest placed Luo Yunyang in a quiet room after finding an inn in the city. Once done, Tashan told Li Yuan smoothly, “Boss, why isn’t Brother Luo waking up yet?”
“How would I know? Why don’t we find an apothecary to take a look at him?” Li Yuan went out of the room after giving his advice.
Apothecaries existed among cultivators, but they were more skilled and charged higher prices than the pract.i.tioners who only treated ordinary people.
Tashan had come back empty-handed this time and even suffered quite a significant loss. However, after mulling it over for a moment, he still decided to find an apothecary for Luo Yunyang.
Unfortunately, even a Xiantian Taiyi Yuan Venerate would not be able to come up with a conclusion for what had happened to Luo Yunyang, let alone an ordinary apothecary.
The apothecary Tashan hired was professional and ethical, as he didn’t charge a single cent after failing to determine what was wrong with Luo Yunyang. With the referral of this apothecary, Tashan hired a few more apothecaries, but none of them knew what was going on either.
Luo Yunyang clearly saw Tashan’s effort and reluctance to give up on him. He wanted to tell Tashan that there was no need to bother, but unfortunately, he couldn’t even send out a faint strand of his spirit consciousness, let alone open his mouth.
Did this mean that he would be like a living dead person forever?
Luo Yunyang had left this body behind in the Vast Sky Sacred Realm for important reasons. Thus, its current state worried Luo Yunyang tremendously.
Furthermore, what was happening within his body made Luo Yunyang feel anxious. He was worried that some formidable being might discover and abduct him before refining him into a weapon or something of the sort if he did not consolidate the energies inside this body quickly.
Although the possibility of such a situation happening was low, it wasn’t impossible.
However, his cultivation technique could not break through the tough energy restrictions formed by the boundless spirit essences.
According to Luo Yunyang’s research during this period, the main reason he couldn’t break through the energy restriction was because of the will headed within this energy.
He would be able to utilize this energy as long as he could wipe out the will of the Sky Wrecking Great Sage hidden within these boundless spirit essences.
However, there was a big difference between his mind and the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will.
Luo Yunyang tried out many different ideas, but none of them were effective.
Although it was said that the Samsara Wheel could transform any energy, it simply wasn’t able to budge under the pressure of the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will.
It would be great if he could crush the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will, which was lingering in his body!
The moment this idea formed in Luo Yunyang’s mind, he immediately thought of something he possessed: the Great Obliteration Millstone.
Although there were many uses for the Great Obliteration Millstone, Luo Yunyang had gradually stopped using it ever since his cultivation base had improved. However, he had already comprehended his Great Obliteration Millstone entirely and could form a Great Obliteration Millstone within his consciousness right away.
Without waiting any further, Luo Yunyang formed a Great Obliteration Millstone within his spirit consciousness. After forming the Great Obliteration Millstone, Luo Yunyang began to manipulate the Great Obliteration Millstone to crush the will of the spirit essence that was the closest to him.
As a high-level being comparable to a Yuan Sage, the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will wasn’t something Luo Yunyang could easily deal with. However, given the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s current state, he was unable to utilize this will and Luo Yunyang was still able to use his Great Obliteration Millstone.
One rotation, two rotations, three rotations…
While Luo Yunyang was manipulating it, the Great Obliteration Millstone formed by Luo Yunyang’s mind power started to slowly rotate, causing the traces of the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will to slowly start to break down.
In the end, it was ground to fragments!
This still wasn’t enough. Even after being ground to fragments, these fragments drifted out of Luo Yunyang’s Great Obliteration Millstone and headed straight toward the boundless spirit essences that had created the blockage inside Luo Yunyang’s body.
Before Luo Yunyang could stop it, the fragmented will disappeared into the spirit essences and quickly reformed.
Within seconds, these fragments of will started to get reorganized and were quickly restored.
It could be said that all of Luo Yunyang’s hard work had been in vain. However, Luo Yunyang’s eyes lit up when he saw the newly-formed will and nomological laws.
His eyes lit up as if he had been struck by an idea. The completely-black millstone of his Great Obliteration Millstone turned into the Samsara Wheel with a mere thought of Luo Yunyang.
Luo Yunyang came up with the idea of using the Samsara Wheel as the millstone of his Great Obliteration Millstone to convert the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will.
The ma.s.sive will started to rotate again while Luo Yunyang was manipulating it. After an indefinite amount of time, the fragmented will was ready to drift toward the spirit essences once again.
Unfortunately, it was enveloped by Luo Yunyang’s Samsara Wheel before it could drift toward the spirit essences. The fragmented will constantly flashed with different colors as the Samsara Wheel continued to rotate. Eventually, the will was turned into the purest form of mind power and slipped silently into Luo Yunyang’s mind.
The moment this will shattered, Luo Yunyang felt a small part of the spirit essences diffusing quietly. Without the command of the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will, these spirit essences diffused within Luo Yunyang’s body instantly.
Luo Yunyang, who couldn’t even open his eyes at first, felt the weight on his eyelids lighten all of a sudden. Although he still couldn’t open his eyes, he could at least move them now.
Clearly, the amount of the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will that had been ground by Luo Yunyang was too little to matter. In fact, it would be an exaggeration to say that there was a tiny bit.
However, it seemed like Luo Yunyang had seen a glimmer of hope!
The Samsara Wheel formed by Luo Yunyang’s mind power sprung into action once again and began to grind down the nomological law and will of the Sky Wrecking Great Sage.
Because Luo Yunyang focused all his attention on grinding down the Sky Wrecking Great Sage’s will, he paid no attention to what was happening outside.
It could be said that his body would be fine even if he experienced the attack of a Xiantian Taiyi Yuan Venerate. He wouldn’t be able to do anything about it either if such a thing happened indeed.
Hence, paying attention to what was happening outside was simply a waste of his mind power.
After an indefinite amount of time, Luo Yunyang finally opened his eyes and was able to look at the void again.
He had finally absorbed all the spirit essences that had prevented him from moving his eyelids!
