Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 302 The Deal with Chongguang
Hidden Sword Manor, inside the pavilion.

Lu Yang sat upright on a futon, his body radiating light, which eventually shone on him and transformed into beautiful golden patterns imprinted on his skin.

Innate supernatural power, [Stubborn Gold Master]!
This technique was not obtained by him through refining the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends, but rather by using the power of the [Tribulation Wave] to deduce the path of the Dao and borrow a supernatural ability in advance.

"【Shen Metal】is a stubborn metal that needs to be refined by fire to become a sword or halberd. This energy resides in the Earthly Fiend position and, like 【Geng Metal】, belongs to the Yang category of metal. Its light is extremely sharp and difficult to break. After being blessed by the Dharma body, it cannot be damaged by knives, axes, chisels, lightning strikes, or any other force. This is why it is called 【Lord Stubborn Metal】."

Rumble.

The next second, as his innate divine power descended, Lü Yang's aura surged dramatically, breaking free from the shackles of the early Foundation Establishment stage and advancing directly to the mid Foundation Establishment stage!

"At least we've achieved something."

Lu Yang opened his eyes and nodded in satisfaction. After three years, his immortal spirit body had finally reached the initial stage of perfection, and his ability to wield magic was comparable to that of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Looking back, those three years were truly unbearable.

'Upon leaving Gantang Road, he immediately destroyed his clone and buried all the Geng metal spiritual items he had plundered, not daring to take them out for fear of implicating his main body.'

Lu Yang, always decisive, immediately abandoned all his gains from the Li family's gathering at the beach, instead spending three years collecting Gengjin spiritual items. Only recently did he complete the final step of nurturing his immortal spirit body in the early stages of Foundation Establishment, and at the same time confirm something that greatly relieved him:

'That [Ang Xiao] is probably not free either.'

If I'm not mistaken, he probably can't leave the underworld!
'In his previous life, the reason he could run around like a ghost was largely because he refined the Dao karma that his Uncle-Master Chongguang had transformed into after failing to obtain gold.'

Just like Lü Yang now, having an avatar allows him to travel the world on behalf of others.

However, at this point in time, he obviously did not have similar means, so his perception of the present world was limited, and he was certainly not omniscient or omnipotent.

Otherwise, why would the Qingcheng Feixue Zhenjun of the previous life dare to challenge him?

Besides the fact that Qingcheng Feixue Zhenjun is indeed incredibly audacious and possesses extraordinary strength, another factor is that Angxiao faces significant restrictions in the Underworld.

In addition, there was something else that exceeded Lü Yang's expectations.

That is the mass grave in Jiangnan.

"When I was in the Holy Sect, it had been less than a month since it reopened when the Sword Pavilion attacked and occupied the mass grave in Jiangnan, causing the price of substitute puppets to skyrocket."

'However, in this life, perhaps because of the message I sent to my Uncle-Master Chongguang to remind him, the Holy Sect strengthened its defenses at the mass grave in Jiangnan. Therefore, the Sword Pavilion has been hesitant to act, and it seems there are other considerations at play. As a result, it has dragged on for three whole years without a fight breaking out.'

This is also a good thing.

After all, if the fighting starts too early, it will be difficult for him to get a share of the spoils. Now that he has recovered to the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, he can be considered to have some qualifications to participate.

With that thought in mind, Lü Yang finally took out a flying letter spirit book.

This is a pair with the spirit letter he sent to the Holy Sect. The two are interconnected and can communicate directly by writing on them.

"Over the past three years, my Uncle-Master Chongguang has tried to contact me more than once."

'It seems he's very curious about me.'

Lu Yang did not reply to him immediately, but waited for three years. On the one hand, it was because his cultivation was not yet complete, and on the other hand, it was also to deliberately keep him in suspense.

What is easily obtained is not cherished.

Only by playing hard to get can you take the initiative.

Despite this, Lü Yang did not immediately activate the spiritual book in his hand. Instead, he focused his mind and used his divine sense to lock onto a mortal city thousands of miles away.

Then he randomly found a Qi Refining cultivator in the city.

He then delivered the spiritual book to the rogue cultivator and activated the [Puppet on a String] to directly control him, thus creating a causal firewall.

'Although Uncle-Master Chongguang is considered to have a relatively high moral standard within the Holy Sect, it's only relative. Besides, he has a True Monarch backing him! Who knows if he's just waiting for me, so that the moment I contact him, True Monarch Feixue will instantly arrive, grab me, and refine me in an instant.'

In this respect, Lü Yang had to admit that the [Marionette] was indeed very useful.

However, it's not because of its "hypnotic" effect, because that effect is essentially just for bullying weaker opponents; it's only useful for higher-level players to exploit lower-level ones. The key lies in severing the cause and effect.

No one could trace the cause and effect of the "puppet" back to the puppeteer Lü Yang, which is why he was able to hide behind the scenes.

Otherwise, when he met [Angxiao] three years ago, he would have been forced to restart.

'It still has to be a hang-up!'

Lu Yang sighed, and then, through the firewall of the [Puppet on a String], manipulated the Qi Refining rogue cultivator to activate the flying spirit book in his hand.

Almost at the same time.

The sea of ​​clouds reaching the sky and the Holy Fire Cliff.

Chongguang, who was meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Feixin, which had been silent for three years, with a hint of interest in his eyes.

Finally couldn't hold back any longer?

The next second, he swept his sleeve and accepted the communication request from Lü Yang, and immediately began to deduce the cause and effect by following the connection between the spiritual books!
The result is naturally nothing.

Immediately afterwards, a message appeared before his eyes through the spiritual book:

I know a secret that concerns not only the cultivation of "Covering the Lamp Fire" but also the "True Lord of Heavenly Fortune and Bright Light." Would you be interested?

Upon seeing this, Chongguang immediately raised his eyebrows slightly.

Just from these words, he knew that the other party was no ordinary person, after all, not everyone knows the title of "True Lord of Heavenly Fortune and Bright Light".

After a moment's thought, he waved his hand and wrote four characters:

What's the secret?

Soon, a reply came:
I want a top-grade spiritual treasure!

Chongguang's expression immediately turned strange. He stroked his chin with interest. "He always seeks benefits first. Could he really be a true master of my Holy Sect?"
I naturally possess superior spiritual treasures, but how can I give them to you?

This is the problem you need to solve, but my secret involves a fragment of a grotto-heaven left behind after the fall of the "True Lord of Heavenly Fortune and Bright Light."

"."

Chongguang's expression grew increasingly somber. The next second, a graceful figure appeared in the main hall. With a wave of her hand, the spirit book landed in her grasp.

"Thank you for your help, True Lord."

Chongguang then revealed a smile, only to see that the one holding the spiritual book was none other than Qingcheng Feixue Zhenjun, who had just received Chongguang's message and immediately came out of seclusion!
Instead of deducing cause and effect, True Monarch Qingcheng Feixue violently traced the connection between the two spiritual books, instantly locking onto a certain location in Jiangnan. Then, she reached out and grabbed. In an instant, the void shattered, and a figure was directly grabbed by her from afar!
However, upon seeing that person, both of them let out a soft exclamation.

His gaze fell upon the figure that had been captured, and he saw that it was none other than the Qi Refining rogue cultivator that Lü Yang had randomly selected and manipulated using the [Puppet on a String].

'He really did resort to underhanded tactics. What a beast!'

Far away in Jiangnan, Lü Yang shook his head helplessly, his heart unmoved. He knew that it was better to be safe than sorry, and that the Holy Sect was full of beasts who had no martial ethics!
Especially Chongguang, that's outrageous!
It's just a deal, yet they actually invited True Monarch Qingcheng Feixue to intervene. If he hadn't been on guard, they would have been forced to restart the game by now!
"It seems you prefer face-to-face communication?"

Lu Yang smiled slightly at Chong Guang through the [Puppet on a String], but the next second, he felt an immense force fall on the rogue cultivator.

Without saying a word, I immediately began searching his soul!
However, Lü Yang remained calm and composed, since there was no trace of him in the memories of the Qi Refining rogue cultivator, and no matter how he searched, he found nothing.

After a long while, that great power dissipated.

Qingcheng Feixue Zhenjun's beautiful eyes were burning with curiosity, clearly showing that she also had great curiosity about Lü Yang, and looked as if she wanted to dissect him directly.

Seeing this, Lü Yang spread his hands and asked, "Can we talk now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Master Chongguang finally smiled, then gave Lü Yang a deep look: "Interesting. It seems that you are indeed a Master of my Holy Sect."

Moreover, judging from his demeanor, he is probably no ordinary Holy Sect True Person!
