Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 348 Reincarnation of a Divided Soul, Exploring the Underworld

Jiangnan, Hidden Sword Manor.

"A golden age is coming."

At this moment, Lü Yang's immortal spirit body was gazing into the distance, sensing the bursts of energy from all directions. Chong Guang's actions were like igniting a powder keg!

Under the watchful eyes of the True Lords, almost all Foundation Establishment cultivators are like those burdened with shackles. In particular, the Great True Lords who have reached the pinnacle of Foundation Establishment are constantly under the scrutiny of the True Lords of the world. A single move from them can have far-reaching consequences. Those who truly have the opportunity to seek wealth are extremely rare. In the end, they are nothing more than useful tools.

He's not even as carefree as a Grandmaster in the late Foundation Establishment stage.

But things are different now.

"Sixty years without a True Lord may seem short, but in reality, even for a Great True Person in the late Foundation Establishment stage, this period of time is more than enough."

"Unfortunately, it has nothing to do with me."

Lü Yang was self-aware enough that he didn't expect to spend sixty years seeking gold, but he felt he could still look forward to completing the foundation building process in sixty years.

"I now possess both Geng metal and Shen metal."

"The next level of [Xin Jin] is in the hands of Martial Uncle Chongguang. We should have a chance to get it in the future. That would make three Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends!"

If we find [酉金] again, we will have four in total.

As a celestial being, he has achieved perfection!
Once he comprehends his innate divine power, he will be able to immediately be born to seek gold!
"If I could just gather enough, I'd be willing to die. Anyway, I can use the Hundred Lifetimes Book to bring all my cultivation back with me. No matter how you look at it, it's a huge win."

Because the [Heavenly All-Encompassing Dharma Body] is both a supernatural power and a spiritual treasure, possessing the characteristics of both.

The cultivation options in the [Book of a Hundred Lifetimes] include the supernatural abilities you cultivate!
In other words, if I choose cultivation, I can take the [Heavenly All-Encompassing Dharma Body] with me as well, without worrying about wasting it!

Thinking of this, Lü Yang also became excited.

"Finally, the opportunity has arrived."

Immediately afterwards, Lü Yang glanced at Ancestor Tingyou, who was still calculating something with his fingers, clearly still immersed in Chongguang's previous actions.

"."

To be honest, Lü Yang didn't feel anything about it.

Of course, he was grateful for Chongguang's actions, but both Chongguang and Mu Changsheng had extremely lofty goals and ambitions.

It's too far away from him.

Perhaps only a genius like the founder could resonate with this. Unfortunately, compared to grand ambitions, I care more about the necessities of life.

For Lü Yang, he simply wanted to climb the ladder step by step.

At all costs, we will reach the highest level!
Therefore, compared to Chongguang and Mu Changsheng, he resonates most with Suohuan. How can someone struggling to survive have the mind to care about grand ambitions?

"call"

Putting aside his many distracting thoughts, Lü Yang stopped thinking about it and instead activated the [Puppet on a String] again, turning his attention back to the clone inside the [South Heavenly Gate].

With the disappearance of the True Lords, the great power originally placed on the South Heavenly Gate also dissipated, and it was no longer isolated from the outside world, so Lü Yang could commit suicide.

"puff!"

The next second, Lü Yang manipulated his clone to shatter his internal organs, leaving his entire body covered in cracks, turning him into a bloody mess in an instant, looking as miserable as could be.

After doing all this, he left the South Heavenly Gate with the Yun family patriarch and Xiuxin Zhenren.

Outside the South Heavenly Gate, the Demon-Slaying Immortal's eyes immediately fell on Lü Yang, his eyes first showing confusion, then anger:

Why are there only three of you?

Lu Yang didn't let his clone answer; instead, Xiu Xin Zhenren spoke up: "Senior Sister Ye was killed by the Demon Sect's Patching Heaven Peak Master, and the other Zhenren are scattered."

As soon as he finished speaking, the South Heavenly Gate trembled once more.

Soon, several streaks of light flew out from it, which turned out to be the other Sword Pavilion True Persons who had fled after Ye Guyue's death and were deliberately let go by Lü Yang.

Now is the perfect time.

With their descriptions, Ye Guyue's death was immediately concluded: he was killed by the Demon Sect's Patching Heaven Peak Master, in full view of everyone, without the slightest doubt.

Seeing this, the Demon-Slaying Master could only sigh. He looked at Lü Yang and said gently, "The Demonic Sect is powerful. It is already extremely difficult for Fellow Daoist Lü to keep his life. This great defeat at the Southern Heavenly Gate is my responsibility. I will apologize when we return. Afterwards, come with me back to the Sword Pavilion to recuperate."

"You are mistaken, sir!"

Lu Yang remained silent, instead prompting the Yun family patriarch beside him to speak: "How can you say that our Sword Pavilion suffered a great defeat this time? It should be described as a great victory!"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

The Demon-Slaying Master was slightly taken aback, then his eyes gleamed with a strange light: "What does Fellow Daoist Yun mean?" "Ahem."

Only at this moment did Lü Yang finally speak, trembling as he took out a storage bag, then gently shook it, from which a dazzling array of treasures spilled out.

Upon seeing this, the Demon-Slaying Master was first taken aback, then smiled with satisfaction: "Good!"

Seeing this, Lü Yang cupped his hands and said weakly, "The Peak Master of Butian killed Senior Sister Ye and has already died by my hand. This can be considered as avenging Senior Sister Ye."

"It's a pity that this is all the spiritual materials I could obtain from the Southern Heavenly Gate..."

He understood the principle of first suppressing and then praising. If he presented so much of the harvest at the beginning, everyone would find that a lot was missing upon careful review, such as how it was only 30%. However, if he made everyone think that they had gained nothing at first, and then presented the harvest, the effect would be completely different.

Given his near-death appearance, who could possibly say a bad word about him?
What? Seventy percent of the spiritual materials are missing?

That's already pretty good, 30%! What? Do you think I pocketed it?

"Thank you for your hard work!" The Demon-Slaying Master grasped Lü Yang's hand tightly.

Seeing this, Lü Yang quickly pressed his advantage: "Senior, I have not failed you. Although I am exhausted, I have still done my part for Sword Pavilion."

"I only pray that in my next life I can join the Sword Pavilion and gain a connection with the Dao."

Lu Yang spoke with such sincerity that even the Demon-Slaying Master was moved. After a long while, he said softly, "If you don't want to die, I might as well kill you."

Lu Yang: “???”

"It's not necessary!"

Fearing that the Demon-Slaying Immortal might strike with his sword, Lü Yang quickly declined, saying, "This junior's heart is set on the Great Dao, and I only wish to join the Sword Pavilion. I beg the senior to grant my request."

"Okay, I promise you."

The Demon-Slaying Master solemnly said, "After you are reincarnated, I will personally guide you and take you as my disciple. From then on, you will be a true disciple of my Sword Pavilion."

'Such a good thing?!'

Lu Yang was overjoyed and frantically recalled his several meetings with Ang Xiao before he managed to suppress the urge to smile.

"Then... thank you very much, senior."

Before he could finish speaking, Lü Yang eagerly tilted his head to the side.

The Underworld is wide open!

Through the perspective of the split soul, Lü Yang saw for the first time what the underworld was—a pitch-black gate that only the souls of the dead could see.

'Finally, I can officially clear my name and join the Sword Pavilion!'

'The [Xin Metal] has been secured, and the last [You Metal] might just end up with the Sword Pavilion. Besides, I've wanted the Sword Pavilion's techniques for a long time.'

In addition, there was another target that Lü Yang was quite interested in.

'Exploring the cycle of reincarnation!'

Ordinary souls enter the cycle of reincarnation in a daze, unaware of their own existence. Even when a soul is divided, it will lose contact with its original body, let alone be remotely controlled.

However, Lü Yang was different.

He can control the actions of the divided souls through [puppets], and directly observe the scenes of reincarnation through the divided souls' vision!

'It's about being prepared for a rainy day.'

'After all, Angxiao is plotting against the Underworld. If he can do it, why can't I? I'll come in first to scout things out. Once I reach Golden Core stage, I might just be able to take his place.'

Many thoughts flashed through Lü Yang's mind.

The next second, as his divided soul drifted into the Underworld, he felt a slight darkness before his eyes, and then found himself in a gloomy palace.

What came into view was a pair of scrutinizing eyes.

'.Um?'

Through the perspective of the [puppet], Lü Yang watched as the figure, whose entire body was shrouded in mist and only a pair of eyes were visible, suddenly closed in.

His eyes showed a mixture of blue and white.

As the light shimmered, Lü Yang could even clearly see the reflection of his own fragmented soul in its eyes, less than an inch away from him.

"Fellow Daoist?"
