Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect-Chapter 369 : Great Achievement of Immortal Spirit, Sword Heart Enlightenment

Chapter 369: Great Achievement of Immortal Spirit, Sword Heart Enlightenment

As soon as he spoke, Lü Yang immediately regretted it.

It wasn't that he regretted turning against the Myriad Poison Sect; rather, he regretted the way he had spoken.

After all, as a True Person of the Sword Pavilion, how could he resort to such coercive tactics? Moreover, annihilating an entire sect was excessively brutal—that was the Primordial Saint Sect's style.

If it were the Sword Pavilion, the proper way to phrase it would be: "Today, I shall take the 【Indestructible Gilded Silkworm】 and the 【Xin Metal】, considering it as a karmic debt owed. Therefore, I will send you all into reincarnation today, and in your next life, I shall guide you to join the Sword Pavilion, thereby repaying this karmic bond."

—That would be the appropriate tone!

However, he had carelessly spoken his true thoughts, and his originally righteous words now carried a hint of banditry, making it easy for others to sense something amiss.

"Alas, I love the Primordial Saint Sect too deeply."

This thought flashed through Lü Yang's mind in an instant, and in the next moment, he had already made his move. As for the fate of the Myriad Poison Sect, he paid it no mind.

From the very beginning, the Myriad Poison Sect had no path to survival.

Publicly, the Northern Frontier's Divine Martial Sect had already been destroyed by the Primordial Saint Sect. If the Sword Pavilion spared the Myriad Poison Sect, it might one day find itself besieged from both north and south.

Privately, there was that Moon-Worshipping Sacred Pool.

"A naturally formed, feng shui treasure land capable of nurturing 【Xin Metal】—if I place the Immortal Spirit's true form within it, it will undoubtedly accelerate its gestation!"

Perhaps there was still hope to catch the tail end of this grand sixty-year era!

In comparison, the 【Indestructible Gilded Silkworm】 was secondary; it would be great to obtain it, but Lü Yang wouldn't feel any loss if he didn't.

"Clang! Clang!"

A sharp sword cry resounded throughout the heavens and earth. With the blessing of 【Upholding the Law】, Lü Yang's aura instantly surged, reaching the level of a Grand True Person.

【Brightly Harmonizing the Eternal World, Upholding the Golden Sword】!

Without any hesitation, Lü Yang directly summoned his sword foundation, radiating myriad brilliant lights. With the divine ability 【Entrapping Intent】, he immediately ensnared Long Yue within it.

Long Yue merely frowned slightly, vaguely sensing something was off. However, being from a small sect, her foundation was far inferior to Lü Yang's. Even though she sensed something was wrong, she didn't realize she was already under the influence of a divine ability, merely thinking it was some soul-shaking technique.

"Activate the formation, fight to the death!"

Long Yue's beautiful eyes were resolute, shedding her earlier coquettish demeanor, finally displaying the demeanor of the Myriad Poison Sect's leader, revered by all true disciples.

Since Lü Yang intended to go all the way.

Then she was equally willing to risk her life in battle!

In the next moment, the previously sealed formation of the Myriad Poison Sect's sacred mountain reopened. Beams of brilliant light shot into the sky, severing the connection between the inner and outer worlds.

【Five Saints Moon-Worshipping Mysterious Formation】!

As the formation activated, the world instantly transformed. Day turned into night, a bright moon hung on the treetops, and the surging 【Moonlight】 cascaded like a waterfall!

Lü Yang stood amidst the surging mysterious light, upright and unflustered, gazing around: "Something felt off earlier, and now it seems someone has been secretly watching me! Who could it be? The Ye family of the Sword Pavilion? Or the Southern Suppression King of the Dao Court?"

"【Heavenly Spider Prison】, 【White Snake Duke】, 【Falling Horse Poison】!"

At this moment, Long Yue chanted incantations and formed hand seals, successively summoning a white snake, a spider, and a scorpion.

The Myriad Poison Sect's cultivation centered around gu.

Among them, five supreme gu insects reigned over all others, known as the 【Five Saints】. As the Myriad Poison Sect's leader, Long Yue naturally cultivated these five saint gu insects. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"【Heavenly Spider Prison】!"

In the next moment, a white web spread out, thread by thread, not attacking Lü Yang directly but sealing the surrounding space.

In an instant, Lü Yang felt a heavy pressure, as if he were a butterfly caught in a spider's web, his thoughts and movements difficult to execute. He raised an eyebrow, unleashing a burst of sword energy. However, Long Yue remained calm, continuously weaving webs, layer upon layer, binding Lü Yang in place.

Seeing this, joy flashed in Long Yue's eyes.

The Myriad Poison Sect had long resided in the southern frontier, neighboring the Sword Pavilion for many years, naturally treating the Sword Pavilion's sword cultivators as hypothetical enemies and devising many countermeasures.

"Though sword cultivators are formidable, they are not without weaknesses."

"Their greatest weakness lies in their greatest strength—their flying swords! Relying on the sharpness of their flying swords, they often neglect their physical bodies. Usually, with their swift sword escapes and unmatched attack power, they have nothing to fear. But once these two are restricted, they are at a loss."

In essence, they had high offense but low defense.

Long Yue used binding techniques against Lü Yang to restrict his speed and power, forcing him to compete in physical strength and magical power!

"I possess the 【Sun-Swallowing Toad】, capable of devouring all external energies and injuries, and the formation shares the damage for me."

"How can he possibly outlast me?"

Long Yue was full of confidence. With a thought, the remaining two divine ability gu insects, 【White Snake Duke】 and 【Falling Horse Poison】, descended upon Lü Yang.

"Boom!"

A terrifying sound wave reverberated throughout the Myriad Poison Sect's sacred mountain, even suppressing Lü Yang's sword energy thunder sound, completely engulfing his figure.

Between heaven and earth, myriad illusory lights intertwined.

Each illusory light was a manifestation of divine abilities, seemingly ordinary but containing vast power. If they landed overseas, they could easily collapse an island.

Moments later, a figure finally emerged from the center of the illusory lights.

Seeing this, Long Yue's beautiful eyes revealed a smile. However, before the smile could widen, it froze on her face as the figure became clearer.

Because Lü Yang was unscathed.

On his body, rolling black energy formed a majestic phantom with three heads and six arms, emitting mysterious flames, directly withstanding Long Yue's divine abilities.

【Heavenly Firmament's All-Encompassing Dharma Body】!

This dharma body radiated solemnity. One hand tightly grasped the 【Falling Horse Poison】, remaining unmoved even as its scorpion tail pierced its flesh.

Another hand was raised high, its robust arm entwined by the 【White Snake Duke】's body, muscles bulging, five fingers gripping the snake's seven-inch point, allowing it to bare its fangs and bite into its flesh. Every moment, the dharma body's injuries worsened.

However, what shocked Long Yue was.

Despite the dharma body's worsening injuries, Lü Yang's aura showed no signs of weakening. Instead, it grew stronger, continuously rising to a certain limit!

"What is this thing!?"

Even in the Primordial Saint Sect, Foundation Establishment True Persons who had cultivated second-grade true arts were extremely rare. Naturally, Long Yue, far in the southern frontier, couldn't recognize Lü Yang's dharma body.

If it were the Southern Suppression King, Wu Tai'an, perhaps he would.

However, under the cover of the 【Five Saints Moon-Worshipping Mysterious Formation】, the Southern Suppression King's vision had been cut off, making it difficult for him to observe this place unnoticed.

Of course, this was within Lü Yang's expectations.

Otherwise, why would he choose to battle Long Yue within the Myriad Poison Sect? Only in such a situation, where no one knew, could he fully unleash his abilities!

In the next moment, Lü Yang opened his eyes.

The dharma body was profound—the more severe the injuries, the stronger the divine abilities and magical power. He flipped his palm, and a radiant, multicolored treasure sword appeared in his hand.

"Zheng——!"

The sword's cry resounded once more. Lü Yang held the 【Calamity Wave】, and wherever his gaze fell, time seemed to halt, leaving only him in the world.

Even the thunderous roar of sword energy turned into silence.

Countless thoughts and distractions vanished at this moment. Lü Yang's body and mind seemed to enter a wondrous, indescribable state.

Around him, numerous divine abilities naturally manifested.

【Master of Arms】, 【Stubborn Gold Duke】, 【Solemn Mysterious Frost】... and a divine ability evolved from the profundity of 【Upholding the Law】, yet without any light or shadow.

Only a melodious bell sound.

【Heavenly Bell】!

At this moment, the four innate divine abilities coiled around the dharma sword in Lü Yang's hand, merging seamlessly, finally all integrating into his dharma sword.

"Maintaining stillness to reach ultimate emptiness... Sword Heart Enlightenment, so this is Sword Heart Enlightenment?"

Lü Yang suddenly understood.

The Sea-Slaying Sword from his previous life surfaced in his mind.

He drew his sword.

"【Proclaiming Might】"

As the sword was unsheathed, it instantly outshone all brilliance between heaven and earth, forcing Long Yue's gaze to fixate upon it, unable to look away.

This sword from Lü Yang's true body had been charging for a long time, further enhanced by the dharma body pushing all divine abilities to their peak, combined with the Sword Pavilion's 【Sword Heart Enlightenment】 technique. With the status of a Grand True Person and top-tier divine abilities and treasures from a major sect, how could Long Yue, from a small sect, possibly withstand it?

"Swish!"

A beautiful head instantly flew into the air.

The graceful body was directly shattered by the aftermath of the sword light, leaving only the soul escaping, only to be intercepted by a banner before entering the 【Underworld】.

"A late Foundation Establishment stage banner spirit."

It's mine now!
