Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 236 Evolution of the Abyssal Sword

With Ye Guyue fleeing, Lü Yang's attention turned to Chong Ying. The two exchanged a glance, both seeing fear and urgency in each other's eyes.

The apprehension stemmed from their respective strengths. Lü Yang's side had been exposed, losing the opportunity for a sneak attack, making it unrealistic to expect to defeat the True Dragon King. The same applied to Chong Ying's side. As for the urgency, it was because the commotion from their recent battle had attracted some truly powerful enemies.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang immediately spoke:

"Divide into two."

Upon hearing this, Chongying's golden eyes flickered, but without hesitation, he immediately nodded: "Alright!"

As soon as the words fell, the two appeared together, each grabbing a corner of the [Shadow Dragon Water], and then simultaneously tearing it in half, splitting the spiritual embryo in two.

The next second, Chongying's figure vanished into the distance.

Lu Yang then put away half of the [Yinlong Water], and then made a hand seal to conceal his figure and aura with [Star Concealment] again, disappearing from the spot as well.

A moment later, a streak of light flew over.

His divine sense swept across the area, but he only saw ruins after a great battle. He was slightly startled, for what he saw was a vast and wondrous sight.

Besides the spiderweb-like cracks that filled the ground, the mountains and forests were also cut off in mid-air, and the clouds in the sky were forcibly separated from the middle to both sides, revealing a huge sword mark like an insurmountable chasm. Even now, clouds continue to fill the sword mark.

One can imagine the power of this sword strike.

Thinking of this, Dun Guang, who had come to investigate, was somewhat relieved. He was glad that he had arrived a little late, otherwise, how could he have withstood this sword strike?
Immediately afterward, the light circled around a few more times, but finding nothing, it decisively gave up and sped off to the next place of opportunity.

Meanwhile, Lü Yang found a mountain forest to rest temporarily.

"Half a piece of [Yinlong Water] is enough to use."

Although the value of the [Shadow Dragon Water] as a spiritual embryo was greatly reduced after being torn in half, it was no longer sufficient to refine spiritual treasures and elixirs.

However, Lü Yang didn't mind.

After all, he was not good at weapon crafting or alchemy. The reason he seized this spiritual embryo was only to nurture the [Avici Sword] and use it as a consumable.

"Owner!"

Soon, as Lü Yang summoned the Avici Sword, its blade shimmered with spiritual light, and a sword spirit girl dressed in a red cotton-padded jacket jumped out from Zhongxing excitedly.

It couldn't be more satisfied with its sword master, Lü Yang. Not only could he kill a few Foundation Establishment cultivators every now and then to give it a taste of life, but he could also feed it such a superior spiritual embryo. It thought that its old master, Blood Demon True Man, was already very powerful, but compared with Lü Yang, he seemed weak and incompetent.

"Eat it." Lü Yang pressed down on the sword spirit's head.

"Aww!"

The sword spirit's mouth suddenly split open, and it devoured the [Shadow Dragon Water] in one gulp. Then, it patted its round belly and transformed into light, flying back into the sword.

The next second, the aura of the Abyssal Sword changed.

As Lü Yang had predicted, with half a piece of [Yinlong Water] entering his stomach, the Abi Sword, which was already nearing its limit, truly began to generate a fourth mysterious power!
In an instant, streaks of brilliant colors appeared on the Abyssal Sword.

【Human Butcher】, 【Perilous Journey】, 【Famous Weapon】. These three divine mysteries cluster around the sword like stars surrounding the moon, together unleashing a fourth divine mystery.

A moment later, a brand new radiance emerged, and the cause and effect followed.

Lu Yang quickly calculated with his fingers, and a brand new and wonderful piece of information immediately appeared in his mind.

Its name is: 【褫龙】!
This supernatural power is extremely insidious. It involves creating a sword light on the Avici Sword, but it is not a physical entity; rather, it is an illusion that cannot harm anyone.

This sword light, which has been separated from the main beam, is specifically designed to sever merit and destiny!
In this way, being struck by the Avici Sword again would not only result in injury, but also damage to one's merits and destiny, ultimately amounting to divine punishment!

Take Ye Guyue for example. If the Abyssal Sword had been blessed with the miraculous power of the Dragon-Slaying Technique, Ye Guyue would not have calmly and rationally turned around and fled. Instead, he would have been blinded by the aura of calamity and single-mindedly confronted him head-on, completely disregarding the consequences of failure. As a result, he would have been killed by Ye Guyue's sword!

"This is incredible!"

For a time, Lü Yang was absolutely enamored with the Abyssal Sword, especially after condensing the fourth divine essence, the Abyssal Sword's aura became even more extraordinary.

In short, we are getting closer and closer to obtaining the [Imperial Palace Golden Seal of the Tushita Heaven]!

"The [Imperial Palace Golden Seal of the Tushita Heaven] is a semi-true treasure forged by Daoist Hongyun. If the Avici Sword could gather all five divine treasures, it would probably be almost there!"

Just as Lü Yang was getting excited, Patriarch Tingyou quietly appeared. "Something's not right."

A question interrupted Lü Yang's thoughts, allowing him to regain his composure. He turned to look at Ancestor Tingyou and asked, "May I ask, Ancestor, is there something amiss?"

"This is strangely wrong."

Master Tingyou frowned and said, "【Yinlong Water】is Chen Earth, the most Yin Earth, the tomb of water, while your 【Abi Sword】is formed from Geng Metal Qi."

"Logically speaking, a metal artifact should be silent when buried in water and soil. Metal is cold and water is cold, so it is prone to drowning. Your Avici Sword should not be damaged after absorbing it, but the magical power it generates should not be too strong. However, this [Dragon Stripping] is clearly beyond that, which means that the two are not mutually exclusive."

“Even compatible.”

At this point, Master Tingyou's face was full of doubt: "But Geng metal is Yang metal, and Chen earth is Yin earth. Yang metal meeting Yin earth is inherently incompatible."

"How could this be?"

Just then, Lü Yang suddenly felt a slight stirring in his heart.

The next second, the invisible sword suddenly jumped out from his sleeve, and the Xin metal energy that had been refined into the sword fluctuated violently, causing the sword to ring out.

"Uncle-Master Chongguang, are you looking for me?"

Lu Yang immediately understood. This aura of metal was probably the former body that True Man Chongguang had deliberately left behind after his reincarnation as an immortal spirit.

It's normal for the two to have a connection.

"But just because you call me doesn't mean I have to go."

Lu Yang sneered, guessing that even if Master Chongguang was still alive, he must be extremely weak at this moment, and that he was calling him now because he had encountered trouble.

Do you want to shield yourself from disaster again?

While Lü Yang was still pondering, he suddenly raised an eyebrow. It should be known that although he was in hiding, he was constantly using the Heavenly Instrument to deduce things, and the light of the Bing Fire illuminated the six directions and eight corners of the world.

At that moment, something unusual was noticed.

However, within the blessed land, apart from the [Shadow Dragon Water], the other three innate divine abilities were also taken away one by one, causing the entire blessed land to shake violently.

This change was like a house having its main beam removed, so that in the center of the blessed land, in the realm of ecstasy, a vast and boundless golden light had to emerge, replacing the four innate divine powers to support the blessed land again. However, this was limited to the central area, and the outer perimeter of the blessed land had already begun to collapse.

"Is this forcing people to move towards the center? Forcing me to go there?"

Lu Yang's expression was solemn. Not everyone was so greedy. Some cultivators who felt their strength was insufficient only reaped some benefits on the periphery and then hid away.

But now, they can no longer hide it.

The blessed land began to collapse from the edges, shrinking the survival zone. If you were in these collapsed areas, you might be directly killed by the power of the blessed land!
"What a brilliant open scheme!" Lü Yang clapped his hands and laughed.

Qingcheng Feixue Zhenjun ordered a thorough investigation. He could not leave the blessed land, but as long as he remained in the blessed land, he had to go to the center of the blessed land to meet Chongguang.

As for the golden light in the center of the blessed land, Lü Yang guessed its origin.

That was the innate divine power of the True Man Chongguang.

【Dongming Flying View Map】!
"If True Immortal Chongguang is truly still alive, his soul must be within it, and this innate divine power actively emerges to forcibly maintain the existence of the blessed land."

"It seems his resolve is firm; he hasn't given up yet."

Just then, Lü Yang's divine eye between his eyebrows suddenly twitched. Under the light of the Bing Fire, he saw several streaks of light rushing towards him from the outside at high speed.

The swift movement of the light, with one person in front and three behind, clearly indicates that someone is being chased.

Judging from their aura, all four were in the early stages of Foundation Establishment. The former was able to remain undefeated despite fighting three opponents alone, entirely due to the dazzling treasures he possessed.

Lu Yang looked closely and a strange expression immediately appeared on his face, because the one being chased was none other than Chongming, the son of Chongguang!
