Asura Continent

Lu Yang stood inside the cave and did not answer Liu Dong's question. He spread out his soul sense and felt around. There was nothing special about the cave, it was exactly the same as the cave carved into a normal mountain. However, how could such a cave make a cultivator faint and lose his memory?

There must be some secret hidden in this cave, but Lu Yang couldn't figure out where it was.

If ordinary cultivators were to come here, they would definitely walk forward. This was because the road ahead represented the unknown, representing hope. If they were to walk towards the back, then they would mean that they would have to retreat. It wasn't just their cultivation base that was being pushed back, but also their own mindset. As such, no one wanted to step back. In order to prove his thoughts, Lu Yang looked at Liu Dong and said, "If it's you, would you like to walk forward or towards the back?"

Liu Dong said without even thinking, "Of course we go forward, who will go back?"

Lu Yang's lips curled up into a faint smile. His guess was completely correct as he said, "Then let's go to the back."

Liu Dong opened his eyes wide, he suspected that he had heard wrongly, and said in a hoarse voice: "Master, you're not joking with me right! "Are we going back?"

"Do you think I'm joking?" After saying that, Lu Yang turned around and walked away, "If you want to walk forward, I won't stop you …"

Hearing Lu Yang's footsteps getting farther and farther away, Liu Dong's mood was rather complicated. He gritted his teeth, turned around and chased after him.

At first, he didn't pay attention to this detail, but as he walked forward, he was surprised to find that the sound of his footsteps was the same as his heartbeat. Every step he took, his heartbeat would beat once, and if he didn't leave, his heart would strangely stop beating. What was even more surprising was that his heart stopped beating and his body didn't feel any discomfort.

Lu Yang's brows twitched. Was this an illusion technique or was there a powerful array inside the cave?

Liu Dong was panting heavily as he chased up. His forehead was covered in cold sweat as he said in fear, "What a terrifying array. Master, you have to slow down and wait for me …"

Lu Yang turned around to look at Liu Dong. When he saw his frightened expression, he was sure that Liu Dong was not lying. He couldn't help but ask, "What did you see just now?"

"The caves here are filled with formations. Some of them are even offensive formations that almost killed me." Liu Dong quickly approached Lu Yang. It seemed that if he was too far away from Lu Yang, he would die a violent death.

"Formation?" Lu Yang was silent for a while and then looked up at the mountain wall. The moment his eyes touched the wall, he felt a huge suction force being released from the wall, enveloping his body. His soul and spirit seemed to have been extracted and entered the mountain wall. Then, an image appeared in his mind.

In the boundless sea, the Heavenly Fish Grandmaster laughed sinisterly, "Lu Yang, let's see where you can escape to now …"

When powerful divine abilities were used, the Heavenly Fish Bone Thrust would be at the forefront. If these bone spikes landed on his body, even if he didn't die, he would still be seriously injured.

Not only that, Lu Yang discovered that he was unable to move, unable to display his powerful supernatural powers. He could only watch as the bone spurs flew over, slowly waiting for death. Lu Yang closed his eyes, and the corner of his mouth curled into a faint smile. The bone spikes arrived in front of him and pierced through his body.

The next moment, the illusory world disappeared and Lu Yang reappeared in the cave. He suddenly understood something and said, "Have you ever encountered a powerful formation before?"

Liu Dong was slightly startled. He immediately recalled the memory and nodded his head, "That's right. When I broke the formation in the past, I did encounter a powerful formation that almost killed me …" He paused for a moment, as if he had understood something, and said, "This is strange, the formation that was trying to kill me earlier is very similar to the one I encountered in the past."

"It's not similar. It's actually just that formation." Lu Yang said seriously, "This is an illusionary space. It can fully display what is happening in front of you. "You can understand it as a dream. In a dream, you can only look at the dream, but you cannot control the development of the dream. If you are afraid, your mentality will change. If you are not afraid, then everything will end."

"If you're not afraid, then everything will be over?" As Liu Dong mumbled these words, he felt a little uncomfortable. "Master, that dream was too real. I could clearly feel the breath of death …"

"Am I dead?" Lu Yang asked.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" "I understand. In fact, everything that has happened in the dream is fake. If you don't believe it, you can write it, right?" Liu Dong laughed out loud in excitement. He had actually comprehended the secret of this place.

Lu Yang smiled but did not say anything. Cultivators who cultivated the power of blood and Qi could not sense the Dao Heart, so they naturally did not understand the mysteries behind it. Lu Yang continued walking forward. Not long after he took a few steps, he entered the dreamscape again. This time around, he saw a woman in white robes. That woman was incomparably beautiful; she was sealed within a vast snow-capped mountain.

"Lu Yang, do you love me?" This woman was none other than Han Ruoxue, who had been sealed away at the foot of the icy mountain all those years ago.

Seeing his beloved woman, Lu Yang blurted out, "Love …"

Han Ruoxue smiled. Her smile was so desolate that she bit her lower lip and said, "You lied to me. You don't love me at all. If you love me, then why would you bury me deep within the snow?"

"I …" Lu Yang wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Han Ruoxue.

"Don't say anything. I know you only love my body. You've never really fallen in love with me." Tears welled in Han Ruoxue's eyes as they fell down, drowning out his world.

This was a dream, not a real world. "Ruoxue, I love you, even if it's just an illusory world, I still love you …"

"If you love me, you can come to me now." Han Ruoxue wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and spoke choked with sobs.

Lu Yang noticed that he could move now and quickly walked forward. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Han Ruoxue.

"Are you willing to die for me?" Han Ruoxue asked faintly.

Lu Yang nodded and said, "I'm willing …"

"Alright, let's die together then!" Han Ruoxue suddenly raised her right hand and abruptly slammed it towards Lu Yang's head. This palm strike was powerful enough to kill Lu Yang.

Lu Yang closed his eyes. The moment he moved, he completely gave up on resisting.

That palm still didn't land. Han Ruoxue's voice sounded next to her ear. "Why didn't you dodge?"

"Why should I avoid someone who isn't even afraid of death?" When Lu Yang said this, he opened his eyes.

The instant he opened his eyes, Lu Yang was stunned because the person in front of him was no longer Han Ruoxue, but an old man.

That old man was wearing a red robe and exuding a powerful aura. He stared at the sky and muttered, "Only by comprehending life and death can one break through the nine blood realms. With the comprehension of cultivators, how can I decipher the mysteries within?" Even though I have seen through the lives of countless people, grasped their panic towards the future and recalled their pain, I was still unable to grasp my own life and death … "

The old man was none other than the Asura Patriarch. After he finished speaking, he vanished.

"Asura Ancestor is not dead?" When Lu Yang returned to the cave, his expression became complicated. Then, he thought of something and shook his head, "No, he's dead. If he's not dead, then I have his blood energy. "However, I didn't sense it just now. This means that within the Dreamscape, there is a phantom image left behind by him when he used a powerful divine ability …"

Thinking up to here, Lu Yang was even more certain that his guess was correct. Otherwise, how could the Asura Ancestor be so calm when he saw his nemesis killing him? However, why was there an Asura Elder's will phantom here? Was the Blood Demon Abyss created by him? Why had he laid down such a massive dimensional realm?

Lu Yang constantly thought back to what the Asura Ancestor had said just now. Every time he thought back, his understanding of the Asura Ancestor's purpose in coming here became much clearer. Because of the laws of the world, he hadn't been able to break through yet. He didn't know where he found out that in order to break through, one first had to comprehend life and death, so he built this place. He felt the fear within the hearts of all the Altar Lords of the Blood Demon Sect and grasped the choice to face life and death.

No matter how powerful the Asura Ancestor was, he couldn't imagine that not only did cultivators have to comprehend life and death, but they also had to sense the heavens and the earth. They even had to comprehend their own dao heart. Even if one were to see through someone else's Samsara Road, they might not be able to comprehend their own comprehension of the Samsara Road. If one was unable to find their dao heart, how would they take the second step and reach the Saint Ruler realm?

Lu Yang discovered what the Asura Ancestor did before he died. He had a faint feeling that not only could this place sense everyone's thoughts before they died, it was also where the Asura Ancestor cultivated in seclusion. The Asura Ancestor must have worked hard to raise his cultivation. The treasures here were likely treasures that he would give his all to obtain. The portion that others would get their hands on must have been ordinary items. The real treasures should be hidden somewhere.

"Asura Ancestor, are you helping me get married?" Lu Yang took a deep breath, clenched his fist and said, "If it is, I will help you take revenge."

"Beauty, haha, my beauty, why don't you follow me tonight!"

"What?" You want me to break the formation on your body first, then follow me?

"My wife, I'll tell you the truth. Even if the Celestial Emperor comes today, you are still my woman, haha!"

Liu Dong's voice suddenly stopped as he angrily scolded, "Damn it, the critical moment of the dream has ended. Master is right, when you don't care about it, the dream will disappear …" With that, he saw Lu Yang standing not far away and chased after him. He excitedly asked, "Master, did you see a beauty just now?"

"I saw it." The corner of Lu Yang's mouth turned into a wry smile as he recalled what Han Ruoxue had said.

Liu Dong slapped his thigh in excitement and said, "Aiyo, I saw a beauty just now, and she's the one I never tried to woo before. Hehe, I didn't expect that in Dreamscape, I would actually put her clothes on …"

Seeing that Liu Dong was beaming with joy, Lu Yang could not bear to listen any longer. He coughed lightly and said, "Let's go! The road ahead is still very long, so you'll see more beauties. "

"Are you for real?" Liu Dong did not believe her, but he still followed her obediently.

In this world, dreams come and go, a garden with a carved fence, and then I came and went, floating like smoke.

Along the way, Lu Yang had experienced countless dreams. Each time he experienced it, his understanding of life and death deepened.

Finally, when the dream disappeared, the two of them arrived at a cliff. The cliff was so deep that the bottom couldn't be seen, and the sound of flowing water could be vaguely heard.

Looking at the cliff in front of him, Lu Yang was stunned. Just as he was about to speak, a scream came from behind him.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Master, save me … "
