Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1050 Underworld
Seeing that Lü Yang had suddenly realized what was going on on his face, the Demon-Slaying Master nodded slightly, a look of admiration appearing in his eyes. It seemed that this child had figured it out.

His talent in this regard is beyond doubt.

He had been racking his brains and spending a lot of time figuring things out after seeing the Sword God's Heart, but the other person understood it after hearing it only once.

Thinking of this, the Demon-Slaying Master continued, "So I plan to dispel my cultivation. This [Sword Dao] is not suitable for me. Didn't you want to try to build a lineage based on the [Northern Exorcism Institute]? But your lineage has no practitioners yet, so there must be flaws in the design of the cultivation methods."

"That's why I'm here to help you."

“I will repair your cultivation technique and help you fill in the gaps. In addition, I also want to comprehend the three Sword God Heart Fasting techniques, which may make up for the regrets of the Great Sword Sect.”

Is this some kind of new "kendo"?
Since the Demon-Slaying Immortal had already brought it up, Lü Yang naturally had no reason to refuse, so he took out the "Tai Xu Gan Ying Pian" from his robes and handed it to the other party.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Master." Lü Yang said somewhat embarrassedly.

To date, the "Tai Xu Gan Ying Pian" is far from perfect, although he has woven quite a few supernatural abilities that can resonate with the "Beiji Exorcism Institute".

However, the quality is not very good.

If one were to use these supernatural abilities to build a foundation, it wouldn't be impossible, but the combat power would be far inferior to that of cultivators using the Cave Heaven Method, and would only be able to barely surpass those of external cultivators.

How does this work?
Look at the Cave Heaven Method. No matter how many drawbacks or hidden dangers it may have, at least on the surface, it is superior to the ancient method in every aspect.

"Therefore, my method must be superior to the Cave Heaven Method in every aspect. Currently, I've only achieved a lead in terms of future prospects, but not everyone values ​​the future. Most people value the present more. So, my method cannot be weak in combat power among those at the same level; at the very least, it must be able to hold its own."

However, this is quite difficult.

Of the supernatural powers in the "Tai Xu Gan Ying Pian" (太虚感感篇), only one, "Zhang Zhong Tian" (掌中天), a simplified version of his self-created "Zhang Zhong Hun Tian" (掌中浑天), is currently visible.

In addition, there is the "Golden Book of Divination".

Currently, he still lacks sufficient experience, but once the [Great Forest Wood] treasure is fully crafted, he is confident that he can also simplify the [Divination Golden Book] into a supernatural power.

But that's the limit.

'Of the five foundation-building supernatural powers, my current accumulation can only fill in two at most. For the remaining three, I'll have to rely on Master Demon Slayer and Ancestor Listening to the Netherworld for help.'

Let me put my talent to good use!
Seeing that the Demon-Slaying Immortal had destroyed the Sword Dao with a single palm strike, and although his energy had plummeted, he looked relaxed and relieved, as if his worries had been resolved, Lü Yang couldn't help but smile.

Soon, the Righteous Path Flag was unfurled.

A surge of purple energy enveloped the Demon-Slaying True Man, protecting him in the deepest part of the realm and ensuring he would not be disturbed by the outside world. Only then did Lü Yang finally retrieve the [Reincarnation Pill of Life and Death].

There are two objectives for this trip to the underworld.

'The primary objective, of course, is to smuggle ourselves out of the Sea of ​​Light. This is the ultimate goal; everything else can take a backseat to it.'

'Secondly, there's the Nascent Soul Pill.'

'If I'm not mistaken, the Nascent Soul Pill, the remnants of the Ancestral Dragon, and even the fate of the first Dan Ding Peak Master, whose whereabouts are unknown, may all be hidden deep within the Underworld.'

'If we can find out the truth, that would be best.'

If he wanted to sneak out of the Sea of ​​Light, the more variables and chaos within the Sea of ​​Light, the better, because only in this way would he have a chance to fish in troubled waters.

Therefore, if the arrangements of the first Dan Ding Peak Master really have the potential to distract the Holy Sect Ancestor, then Lü Yang would definitely not mind lending a hand, in addition to [Ang Xiao], the awakened first Demon Taming Peak Master, the first Heaven Mending Peak Master, Mu Changsheng seeking verification of [Heavenly Fire], and the half-dead Ancestral Dragon.
You old codger, I already said that in my past life.

No matter how many cards you're hiding, how many tricks you've up your sleeve, or how many obstacles you've set up as a "destiny," I'll keep playing along with you.

Play until I win.

With this thought in mind, Lü Yang entered the Immortal Pivot, raised his head and swallowed the pill. The medicinal power of the [Reincarnation Life and Death Pill] suddenly began to operate, causing his status to plummet!
Endless void.

This was a very subtle experience. As the [Reincarnation Pill of Life and Death] dissolved in his body and surged into his limbs and bones, Lü Yang felt his consciousness float away.

His soul is fading away. His body is decaying.

However, his consciousness remained incredibly clear, even clearer than ever before, which finally allowed him to sense the vast and mighty power permeating the Immortal Pivot.

'This is the guidance from the underworld.'

Lu Yang watched with great interest. Unlike the soul-guiding passages he had seen before, this time he was not being guided through the "Gates of Hell," but rather through the "Road to the Underworld."

'The seven components of the Underworld include the Gates of Hell, responsible for guiding and reincarnating souls, and also the place where 'Angxiao' once blocked the gates; and the Road to the Underworld, which deals with the fragments of true spirits after their souls have scattered. So that's how the Reincarnation Pill works.'

In short: a lie!
The shattering of the physical body and the annihilation of the soul are all illusions. In essence, they are meant to trick the underworld into granting them passage and to use the underworld's power to transform life and death!

'This is the real Dan.'

A realization dawned on Lü Yang: the first Dan Ding Peak Master's understanding of alchemy had clearly surpassed the ordinary understanding of pills used for external or internal applications.

What is Dan?
As long as it can reveal the wonders of heaven and earth and the mysteries of the universe, then it is the elixir! Everything else is just a superficial phenomenon that is not worth paying attention to, and there is no need to get entangled with it.

Lu Yang let his consciousness drift, accepting the guidance from the underworld, and plummeted downwards into the mortal world. Then, an endless river of souls came into view, and at the end of the river, a majestic gate stood. This was the first time he had ever seen such a sight.

Previously, due to his low cultivation level, he could only see the River of Souls.

Now that his cultivation level had increased, he finally caught a glimpse of the [Gate of Hell]. However, his gaze soon plummeted downwards.

In an instant, the world spun around.

When he came to his senses, he was standing on a small path paved with bluestone slabs, surrounded by one after another shattered true spirits in a daze.

【Road to the Underworld】!
Ahead along the path, Lü Yang saw a towering bridge, spanning a desolate shadow. Every true spirit that crossed the bridge would be marked with the mark of the underworld, thus officially transforming into a dead spirit, no longer bound by lifespan, yet still unable to escape the underworld.

'But I am different.'

Lu Yang looked inward at himself and seemed to see the invisible [Reincarnation Pill of Life and Death], which would imprint the mark of the underworld on him.

To escape the underworld, simply take out the elixir.

Soon, Lü Yang arrived at the Bridge of Helplessness. Boundless power descended instantly, sweeping over his soul, but it was taken away by the Reincarnation Pill.

Before long, Lü Yang saw a half-black, half-white mark appear on the elixir, completely solidifying his identity as a necromancer. In a daze, he could even sense the Path of the Necromancer that filled every corner of the Underworld, and subconsciously looked up at the top of his head.

Then he saw it.

Above the underworld, eight stars twinkled, their starlight casting an endless glow, seemingly interacting with his gaze.

Lü Yang lowered his head in a daze.

His soul showed no abnormality whatsoever.

His Daoist mind remained as calm and unwavering as ever.

All consciousness seemed to have frozen into an iceberg, no different from any other undead, without the slightest fluctuation, except for the panic visible at the bottom of the iceberg:

'Eye.'

Four pairs of eyes looking down upon the underworld.

Who else could it be?

'Lord Dao! You bastard, it's the Four Dogs of the Immortal Pivot!'
