And what Lin Yang is doing now is actually similar. Since it is a sacrifice to heaven, there must be a basic altar, even if it is just made of mud, but it must exist.
This time, Lin Yang used five-colored soil, a fourth-grade spiritual material. Each type was fourth-grade, and together they made a fifth-grade material. His sincerity was truly remarkable.
Furthermore, when offering sacrifices to Heaven, in addition to the altar, there must be offerings, that is, things to be offered to Heaven. After all, you can't deceive Heaven with empty words.
As for the types of offerings, they were quite diverse. In ancient times, there were human sacrifices, which later evolved into pigs, cattle, and sheep. As for the poor, they could only use paper money for sacrifices.
By the way, in modern times, the offerings have also evolved, becoming houses and dwellings that people desire, as well as beautiful young ladies (some are made of paper, some are handmade, and they come in various prices).
Of course, Lin Yang would need to bring out some treasures to offer as a sacrifice to the heavens, otherwise the heavens might not pay any attention to him.
Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Lin Yang took out a fifth-grade primordial spirit treasure—a small, dark ball.
Although this small ball is inconspicuous, it is very precious. As soon as Lin Yang took it out, a dark yellow light appeared and enveloped the surrounding area.
No matter how powerful the outer formations are, they cannot harm this area in the slightest! Clearly, the choice has been made! The so-called Eight Trigrams Refining Heaven Formation has instantly become ineffective.
"What kind of treasure is this? Why did Heaven react so strongly all of a sudden?" Liu Hao asked curiously.
"This object is the core of an ancient star, containing a large amount of primordial energy. It can transform into a sun and is a fifth-order primordial magic treasure. It will greatly benefit the evolution of the world itself!" Lin Yang said with some heartache.
If he had no other choice, he really wouldn't have wanted to take this out; wouldn't it have been better to keep it for himself? Unfortunately, the timing wasn't right!
"Who among you is willing to go up and take on a portion of the Heavenly Dao's consciousness? I'll need to negotiate with it," Lin Yang suddenly said.
Actually, it would be even better if there were a witch. In ancient times, witches would dance and then carry the consciousness of the heavens to communicate with the priests (often the tribal chief).
"I'll do it."
With that, Liu Hao leaped onto the altar. This was both an opportunity and a crisis. If he could weather it and remain unaffected afterward, his strength would greatly increase. After all, it was a projection of the Heavenly Dao. Even a casual comprehension of it would lead to a meteoric rise in his power.
However, if they can't withstand it and are corrupted by the Heavenly Dao, things will get serious, and there's a certain chance they'll become idiots! Therefore, from this perspective, Lin Yang doesn't want to see Cai Yan and Su Qing'er go up there.
After all, with the Land of Reincarnation in hand, opportunities are the least of his worries. Therefore, Lin Yang has a very low opinion of protagonists who would severely injure themselves and become paralyzed for some kind of opportunity.
"I bow (to Heaven and Earth)!"
"Second bow (to the parents)!"
"Three bows (husband and wife bow to each other)!"
After she bowed to Liu Hao three times, Liu Hao's expression changed. Before the three bows, she was still normal; to put it more elegantly, she was still herself.
After the three bows, it was no longer her! At this moment, Liu Hao was possessed by a ghost, no, by the Heavenly Dao.
The color of his eyes automatically turned gold, radiating a faint golden light. He said nothing, did nothing, but just glanced at Lin Yang, bringing him unparalleled pressure.
Even Lu Bu, the strongest one-on-one fighter among the many chosen ones, didn't give Lin Yang this feeling!
All I can say is, it truly lives up to the name of Heaven. So many protagonists clamoring to break limits and become invincible among their peers, like that certain Heavenly Emperor surnamed Ye, or that certain Heavenly Emperor surnamed Shi—try letting them fight Heaven itself, someone of the same level! Ha!
Sensing the growing aura emanating from Liu Hao, Lin Yang finally spoke. "I offer this item to strengthen the origin of this world, requesting to become the Sun Lord of this realm, that is, the Lord of the Great Sun!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Hao opened his eyes wide, looked at Lin Yang seriously, and then said, "Okay!"
The moment the words left his mouth, the small black sphere on the altar emitted boundless divine light. With the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, it directly overcame countless obstacles and traversed endless distances, instantly arriving at the location of the Sun Star. It merged with the original Sun!
As for the outer Yin-Yang Microcosm Array, it was naturally pierced the instant the small ball flew, leaving a huge circular flaw. The so-called perfect array was broken in an instant!
At the same time, the sun, which had long since hidden in the night, reappeared. Countless rays of sunlight poured directly onto the earth. The moon's light was completely obscured by the sun!
It is the sun, after all, not something a small moon can compare to. Even in the age of mythology, the sun was at least several times more powerful than the moon!
"My name is Lin Yang, and I shall be the Lord of the Sun, the Lord of the Great Sun, the Lord of light, warmth, hope, and death... My light shall illuminate the ten directions of the world, from the heavens to the earth, east, west, south, north, the gate of life, the position of death, the past, and the future!"
"Wherever the sun shines, all is under my jurisdiction. Wherever the sun reaches, that is where I am. May heaven and earth bear witness."
As soon as he finished speaking, a beam of sunlight shone down, directly illuminating Lin Yang. In that instant, countless insights and profound Daoist principles flowed into Lin Yang's body.
Then, the phantom of a three-legged golden crow instantly rose up. With a cry, before leaving, Lin Yang launched a fierce attack on the Long-Browed True Man and the eight Celestial Immortals.
"Where the light is, there I am! The Yin-Yang Dust Array, and this damned Eight Trigrams Heaven-Refining Array, break them all!"
With a deafening roar and a violent explosion, both formations shattered. Anyway, with the power of the sun, Lin Yang could unleash his fifth-tier strength at any time; who was he afraid of?
"Fight! Fight! Fight!" With that, Lü Bu brandished his halberd and charged toward the immortals.
"war!"
"kill!"

Chapter 72: Roar, who else?!
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful woman named Gongsun, whose sword dance moved all four directions.
The onlookers were as numerous as mountains, their faces filled with dejection; heaven and earth seemed to bow low for a long time.
Swift as Yi shooting down nine suns, graceful as emperors riding dragons in flight.
It comes like thunder, then subsides with fury; it departs like the calming light of a still river or sea.
...
This poem was written by the venerable Du Fu when he was old and frail, during the time of the Tang Dynasty's collapse (it didn't actually perish, but the situation at the time was still tragic), upon seeing Li Shier Niang, the disciple of his old friend Gongsun Da Niang.
The original intention was to express feelings of lament for the passage of time and the devastation of a nation, but unfortunately, these few sentences have now become frequently quoted online. However, the purpose has completely changed.
If Gongsun Da Niang's sword dance was powerful and impressive, then what Lin Yang saw at this moment was a true cataclysmic event, with everything annihilated.
