Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1023 The Great Void Response Chapter

Of course, Lü Yang couldn't place all his hopes for the Nascent Soul path on a so-called "Nascent Soul Pill," since who knew whether it was real or fake?

The wise saying goes, "A cunning rabbit has three burrows."

The Arctic Exorcism Institute is his second path. To put it bluntly, this place is too awful, and he wants to create a new paradise!

"The key lies in the cultivators and the lineage."

Lu Yang earnestly explained his idea: "The Daoist tradition will allow me to remain connected to the present world while elevating my status, so that I will not lose my way."

“Cultivators can help me rise in rank.”

"Therefore, I need to create a lineage that resonates with the [Arctic Exorcism Institute], just like the Underworld, and then spread it."

"Under this design, the existence of mortals and low-level cultivators will become very important, because they are related to whether the Arctic Exorcism Academy is lost. At the same time, the path for cultivators to rise will no longer be restricted, because the more cultivators there are, the higher the status of the Arctic Exorcism Academy will be."

Upon hearing this, the Demon-Slaying Master's eyes lit up.

"Therefore, under this design, the actions of cultivators will be made to avoid affecting mortals as much as possible, and even conflicts between cultivators will be reduced as a result?"

"good."

Lu Yang grinned: "Although it's impossible to completely eliminate it, it will definitely be much better than the current state of this lousy place."

"Master, do you still remember?"

"As I told you before, there's always a way out. This world is indeed an undeniably awful place, but it won't always be!"

As soon as the words fell, even the Demon-Slaying True Man was stunned. He instantly recalled that it was something Lu Yang had said to him when he was chatting with Suo Huan when he was pretending to be in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm. Although he spoke with great conviction at the time, to be honest, he always felt that Lu Yang was just comforting him when he was feeling down.
But now, is he serious?

Thinking of this, the Demon-Slaying Master's gaze towards Lü Yang changed, making Lü Yang somewhat uncomfortable. He scratched his cheek and looked away.

"Master, please don't misunderstand."

"I have no interest in saving the world, but this just happens to be in my favor, and besides, Master, what do you think? I'll just lend you a hand."

The Demon-Slaying Master laughed.

Judging by actions, not intentions, regardless of the initial purpose, what does it matter as long as the final result is good? He wasn't the kind of person who was pedantic.

"Why don't you give it a try?"

Just then, Ancestor Tingyou spoke up: "This method is indeed excellent, but if that's the case, why does the Dao Lord still need to build the [Other Shore]?"

He was somewhat puzzled: "Since relying on cultivators can also elevate one's status without crushing the present world, why use the [Other Shore]? The [Other Shore] is based on the present world, and it could easily destroy the entire Sea of ​​Light if one is not careful. Compared to that, the drawbacks are too many."

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang shook his head:

“Grandmaster, you’ve misunderstood. What you consider drawbacks are, in the eyes of the Dao Master, not only not drawbacks, but also great advantages!”

That's right. With cultivators as its foundation, the plane will eventually become stronger and stronger without any hidden dangers. However, the number of competitors will also increase accordingly.

Moreover, the restrictions are actually quite significant.

"The design of the Underworld binds cultivators to the plane almost completely. According to my idea, cultivators in the Underworld should never be able to transcend it."

The level of a plane determines the level of a cultivator.

The strength of a plane does not depend on the individual cultivation level of the cultivators, but on the entire group of cultivators, which is a good thing for the weak.

But for the strong, this is a constraint.

"Compared to that, the Other Shore is much simpler. Although it is full of hidden dangers, it will not have any restrictions. The power of the Dao Lord is limitless."

"What's even better is that there aren't many spots on the Other Shore, which means there will be fewer competitors. There's no need to worry about being overthrown by newcomers. As for the potential collapse of the Other Shore, we can just rebuild it. In the end, it's the living beings who will die, and the Dao Lord probably won't die." Ancestor Tingyou was dumbfounded.

After a long while, he shook his head sincerely and sighed, "To take one's own heart as the heart of Heaven and place oneself above Heaven and Earth, is this the Dao Lord?"

"What a beast!"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang looked away guiltily.

There's one thing he didn't explicitly say: the Arctic Exorcism Institute is ultimately his most precious treasure, and in essence, he possesses the highest authority over it.

In other words:
'If one day the Arctic Exorcism Institute truly achieves the 'Other Shore' realm, I will leap to become the absolute ruler. Even if someone becomes a Dao Lord through the Arctic Exorcism Institute, I can easily destroy them with a flick of my wrist. I am the sole Dao Lord.'

In this respect, Lü Yang differs from the first Demon-Taming Peak Master.

The first Demon-Taming Peak Master clearly relinquished control of the Underworld; otherwise, the Underworld should have fallen into a dormant state during his years of slumber.

Lü Yang could never do that.

Not only will he not give up control of the Arctic Exorcism Institute, but he will also hold on to it tightly, turning all living beings into stepping stones for his advancement!
So strictly speaking.

He was actually one of those people who, according to Master You, treated others as their own, and were nothing but beasts. However, Lü Yang quickly adjusted his mindset.

'At least I'm too lazy to exploit those lower-level cultivators. Or rather, to make them promote me to higher levels is itself a form of exploitation. Besides, compared to the Dao Lord, I'm already considered gentle. Ah, having such a good upper-level cultivator like me is truly a blessing for all living beings in the Light Sea!'

Thinking about this made Lü Yang feel much better.

'That's just who I am.'

Greedy, insatiable, and arrogant; they will never give up anything they want and will get their hands on it no matter what.

At this moment, Lü Yang's heart was incredibly clear, and his magical power spontaneously circulated, creating a chaotic radiance behind him. Then, it gathered the five elements and transformed into a colossal hand that slowly reached out – this was the manifestation of his true self; what he wanted, he should grasp in his hands.

The next second, the colossal hand disintegrated.

Lu Yang sat cross-legged and waited patiently for three days until the wisdom-enhancing wonder of the [Dragon-Dispelling Ruler] could be used again, then he gently tapped his brow.

In an instant, a glimmer of wisdom appeared.

Taking advantage of this time, Lü Yang pointed his finger and, with unprecedented energy and spirit, slowly inscribed five large, elegant characters in the void:

The Treatise on Response and Retribution in the Great Void

As the name suggests, this is a method of spiritual perception, which he created as the final Taoist scripture for the [Arctic Exorcism Institute] by combining his accumulated knowledge to date.

It's not a cultivation technique, but a lineage of Dao!

What is the orthodox tradition?

"Only a systematic cultivation method that allows one to advance along the path of cultivation, from Qi Refining to Foundation Building and Golden Core, can be called a lineage of cultivation."

"All those who cultivate my lineage can sense the [Northern Exorcism Institute], contributing to its development while also elevating their cultivation and status. 'Tai' means high and great, and the [Northern Exorcism Institute] is located in the void, hence the name [Tai Xu]. The Tai Xu Sensing Chapter is truly fitting!"

At this moment, Lü Yang's thoughts were crystal clear.

"To date, I have collected the cultivation of many True Lords through the settlement of gold, but I have never organized them or formed my own lineage."

"It is impossible to build a bridge to the heavens this way."

"However, on the other hand, as long as I can organize my own lineage this time, I will have at least a 90% chance of building the Immortal Bridge!"
