Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1025 Fellow Daoist, Go Prove the Underworld

[The Human World].

Among all the remnants of celestial consciousness, the human realm is, in some ways, the most unique, because it is not an individual entity.

Unlike [The Lord of Nourishing Life], which is a library, [The Emperor of Responding] is a pavilion plus a testing space. [The Human World] occupies a footprint-shaped sea of ​​light, which contains many fragments of the realm, and even a small realm where living beings exist, such as the Taihuang Realm.

This is all thanks to the Buddha.

Because of his foot that came down from the sky, which flattened the Human World, its scale expanded to the outer Light Sea region.

Taihuang Realm.

Lü Yang and Ang Xiao arrived together, chose a deserted island to land on, and then gathered soil to form a mountain, combining the power of nature to create a tea pavilion out of thin air.

"Fellow Daoist, may I ask how to address you?"

[Ang Xiao] spoke first. Although he was shrouded in smoke, the young man's outline was still visible, and his narrow eyes held an expectant smile:
"The Ancestral Dragon? The Holy Ancestor? The Priest?"

Clearly, Angxiao had come prepared this time, having carefully considered the unusual aspects of Lü Yang before uttering three guesses in one go.

The mastermind behind the Old Dragon King.

Insidious tactics of power struggle.

A powerful Dharma body.

Three anomalies correspond to three guesses. After saying this, Angxiao stared straight at Lü Yang, only to see Lü Yang shake his head: "Just a rogue cultivator."

Casual cultivator?

"Fellow Daoist, that shows a lack of sincerity."

[Angxiao] shook his head and chuckled, but did not press further. Instead, he changed the subject: "Fellow Daoist was just trying to take a step further, but failed."

"This is normal. Fellow Daoist cultivates the ancient method. If you want to advance further, you can only go to the [Sea of ​​Bitterness], which will inevitably expose you to the Dao Lord's gaze. However, even if you switch to cultivating the Cave Heaven method, it would be like drinking poison to quench your thirst. You would be sacrificing your future path in exchange for temporary power."

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang narrowed his eyes.
This speculation is incorrect; at least Angxiao did not guess his arrangements for the Arctic Exorcism Institute, but the underlying principle is the same.

'With the Dao Lord above, cultivation is not within one's own control.'

After a moment of silence, Lü Yang suddenly spoke:

"I previously entered the Void of Darkness, attempting to find another way to break through, but I discovered that within the Void of Darkness, the Heavenly Dao had already sealed off the entire Sea of ​​Light."

".What?"

Upon hearing this, Angxiao was stunned: "The Sea of ​​Light is sealed off by the Heavenly Dao? Such a thing is unbelievable! But why would the Sea of ​​Light be sealed off?"

He actually knows a lot of secrets.

Below the Dao Lord, perhaps only the Old Dragon Lord knows more than him.

However, regarding the underworld, apart from the first Demon-Taming Peak Master, he was the most knowledgeable in the world, and therefore he immediately had many guesses:

'The reason the Sea of ​​Light is sealed off is because someone can do something within the Void Realm. The only possibility the Dao Lord is guarding against is the Underworld, since the Underworld is built upon the Void Realm! The Dao Lord is guarding against a second Underworld? If that's the case, then what are the plans of the person before us?'

Angxiao's eyes changed instantly.

"Fellow Daoist, what grand ambitions you have."

Lü Yang said calmly:
"You flatter me. It's just a concept, and it hasn't come to fruition yet. Besides, I'm currently in a predicament. May I ask what advice you have for me, fellow Daoist?"

"I dare not presume to offer guidance."

[Angxiao] shook his head, then fell into deep thought. After a long while, he said quietly, "The key is how much you are willing to reveal to me, fellow Daoist."

Without hesitation, Lü Yang directly handed over his newly created "Tai Xu Gan Ying Pian" (Treatise on the Response of the Great Void). Although he had made some deletions and modifications, the essence of the text remained unchanged. With Ang Xiao's cultivation, it would be easy for him to deduce the cause and effect. By doing this, he had already been quite open and honest. However, he was not worried about it.

'[Angxiao] is not actually an enemy.'

Lu Yang believed he knew his old rival fairly well; his path didn't conflict with his, so his rival wouldn't oppose him, and might even strongly support him.

'After all, he needs me to draw his fire.'

Thinking about this, Lü Yang realized the truth:
'This is perhaps true for all cultivators aspiring to become Dao Masters; we are all like-minded fellow Daoists, trustworthy and obligated to be trusted.'

Even Lu Yang, who had dealt with Ang Xiao several times, could clearly sense that Ang Xiao was much more polite this time compared to before, and truly treated him as an equal in the conversation. This respect was a result of the pyrrhic victory he had just won.

Soon, Angxiao finished reading the scripture.

He raised his head, his eyes filled with amazement: "The world is indeed full of heroes. If this idea succeeds, it will surely break free from the constraints of the Dao Lord."

Lü Yang shook his head: "The problem is also very serious."

"indeed."

[Angxiao] did not deny it, and continued: "However, fellow Daoist may not have discovered that your design is actually quite similar to [Heavenly Dao]."

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang narrowed his eyes, as if struck by a sudden enlightenment: 'That's right, the Daoist tradition I created actually imposes far greater restrictions on cultivators than the Cave Heaven Method. Doesn't this perfectly align with the imagery of the Heavenly Dao? In a sense, it can even be used to perfect the Heavenly Dao.'

But soon he shook his head again:
"Even so, it will only increase my risk out of thin air. The Dao Lord will not cooperate with me because of this. More likely, he will directly steal my achievements."

"Therefore, it needs to be concealed."

[Angxiao] laughed and said, "First of all, you can't let the Dao Lord find this treasure of yours, otherwise the Dao Lord will definitely try to snatch it, and you won't be able to keep it."

"Secondly, you must not let the Dao Lord discover your true intentions. Otherwise, the Dao Lord will see you as a threat, and you will inevitably be nipped in the bud. Therefore, you must make the Dao Lord believe that you are still under his control and that you are manageable. Only in this way can you gain his support. So you must jump out of the Sea of ​​Light."

"And we can't let the Dao Lord find out."

Although the Heavenly Dao has sealed off the Sea of ​​Light, it is not without hope of passing through. The problem is that as long as one passes through, it will inevitably attract the attention of the Dao Lord.

The key is: to remain undetected.

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang stood up and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture:
"What can I do for you, fellow Daoist?"

Upon hearing this, Angxiao's tone finally changed, a solemn look appearing in his narrow eyes, and his deep voice echoed throughout the world:
"Don't take advice seriously."

"However, I do know of a way to leave the Sea of ​​Light without alerting the Dao Lord, and then enter the vast and boundless Land of Contemplation."

Lu Yang finally realized what was happening and asked with a half-smile, "May I ask where the road leads?"

"The road is in the underworld."

[Angxiao] spoke with absolute certainty:
"Although the Heavenly Dao is powerful, it only restricts those below the Dao Lord. The Dao Lord is not restricted. This is true for the Dao Lord of the Other Shore, and it is also true for the Underworld."

“Inside the Underworld, there are no restrictions from the Heavenly Dao. Outside, although the Heavenly Dao has set up surveillance, it cannot extend to the deepest part of the Underworld, the area corresponding to the Dao Lord. That area is a black box to the Heavenly Dao, and it is the only area that the Dao Lord cannot control.”

"This is your chance, fellow Daoist."

"As long as you enter the core of the Underworld and then escape from it, you can enter the Void of Darkness silently without being discovered by any Dao Lord."

"So, fellow Daoist..."

At this point, [Angxiao] finally revealed his true intentions, his narrow eyes filled with sincerity, his tone earnest and seemingly concerned for you:

"Go to the underworld."
