Chapter 535: A Last-Ditch Effort! (Seeking Monthly Votes!)
Upon careful consideration, there is indeed a high possibility.
Legend has it that the Central Domain is not only the most prosperous cultivation realm for the Human Race but also the origin of all humanity.
In ancient times, the ancestors traversed the vast Central Domain, their strength reaching unprecedented heights.
From that point on, the Human Race officially stepped onto the stage to contend with the myriad races, spreading from the Central Domain to the four corners of the world.
Ultimately, they either exterminated or subdued the myriad races, becoming one of the two main protagonists in this world, standing alongside the Demonic Race.
The Central Domain is the source of all cultivation realms.
No matter where one goes, if one traces back through the timeline, any cultivation realm can find its origins in the Central Domain.
Many ancient cultivation techniques, apart from those created later, were brought from the Central Domain by ancient cultivators.
"Could the Qingyang Skill be one of those techniques?!"
Liu Yu speculated in his heart, a look of contemplation flashing in his eyes.
Gradually, it seemed that a picture was being sketched in his mind.
In an incredibly distant era, ancient cultivators reached a peak in their strength, and a portion of them chose to leave the Central Domain, stepping onto the path of contending with the myriad races.
A small portion of them eventually took root in Tian Nan, becoming the origin of the Tian Nan cultivation realm.
Some techniques inherited from ancient times began to spread from that time or afterward.
"If this is the origin of the Qingyang Skill, then everything makes sense."
"This technique currently has no heritage in Tian Nan, but perhaps it still exists in the vast Central Domain."
"Should I take the risk?"
Various thoughts flashed through Liu Yu's mind.
For a moment, he couldn't make a decision.
Crossing the Transverse Mountain Range, the risks are unimaginable—this is no joke.
Once human traces vanish, revealing the slightest movement could lead to being hunted by third-order demonic cultivators or even shape-shifting demonic cultivators.
Describing it as a ten-death, no-life situation would not be an exaggeration.
During the long time disconnected from the Central Domain, Liu Yu did not believe Tian Nan hadn't attempted to re-establish contact.
But still, the current situation indicates something.
Perhaps any attempts made in the past had failed without exception.
"Only, the risks are great, but..."
In the vast hall, ignoring the whispers around him, Liu Yu's expression changed, his brows slightly furrowing.
However, if he wanted to obtain the follow-up of the Qingyang Skill, he would absolutely have to participate in this perilous endeavor.
Although through the Immortal Abode, he deduced the ninth layer of the Qingyang Skill, perhaps after repeated calculations, it wouldn't pose too much of a problem.
But what about content related to forming an infant in the future?
Even if Liu Yu was confident, he wouldn't think that in the late Golden Core stage, he could deduce content regarding the nascent soul stage without any flaws.
Once he made a mistake, it could lead to irretrievable shortcomings.
Even if he barely managed to form an infant, due to the flaws in the technique, it could result in a severed path, making it difficult to progress further.
Such an outcome was unacceptable to Liu Yu!
Not all mistakes can be remedied through later efforts.
In fact, even with extraordinary spiritual objects, only a small portion can be compensated for.
In the Golden Core realm, there is the saying that "once the golden core is formed, there are no regrets."
Cultivators who have formed their Golden Core but changed techniques have a much lower chance of condensing a nascent soul than normal cultivators.
This is because no matter how compatible the attributes are, the originally condensed Golden Core will, to some degree, conflict with the new technique.
It's like a drop of ink on a pure, flawless white paper; it becomes conspicuous and no longer pure.
