Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 403 The Method of Falsely Holding the Golden Position!
As the final divine power expanded, Lü Yang's figure became blurred, but the halo behind him suddenly magnified countless times.

Countless spiderweb-like patterns radiate outwards from the center of the halo.

Then it became distorted.

This time, facing the Daoist magic unleashed by Ancestor Tingyou, Lü Yang did not evade it. Instead, he allowed it to fall, and the distorted radiance engulfed everything.

The next second, Ancestor Tingyou suddenly stopped his movements, then looked at Lü Yang with a surprised expression, and then looked around. Without a doubt, Lü Yang was not injured. His magic was ineffective, not because it failed to hit, but because the damage that should have been effective was diverted.

Where did they move to?

In an instant, Master Tingyou felt the incense on his body begin to dissipate violently, and a strong, invisible anger locked onto his aura out of thin air.

'Divine punishment!?'

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Tingyou suddenly understood. When he looked at Lü Yang again, his eyes finally showed amazement. He then took the initiative to withdraw his magic power.

".I lost."

Upon hearing Ancestor You's carefree laugh, Lü Yang solemnly cupped his hands in greeting:
"Not at all, Master is too kind."

【Being one with the world】This supernatural power, as the name suggests, is to bind oneself to heaven and earth, so that the world can bear the damage that one suffers.

Just now, Master Tingyou's Taoist magic was just like that. All the damage was transferred out by Lü Yang, and it was even transferred to the earth veins of the Seven Luminaries Heaven. As a result, Master Tingyou, who damaged the earth veins, immediately incurred the hostility of the Seven Luminaries Heaven, which is why the incense offerings began to decline.

If Lü Yang hadn't stopped the subsequent changes in the Seven Luminaries Heaven...

At this moment, Ancestor Tingyou has probably lost the support of incense offerings and fallen to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, which is why he readily admitted that he had lost.

This is only in the Seven Luminaries Heaven.

'After all, the supernatural power of "Being One with the World" isn't limited to the Seven Luminaries Heaven; it's applicable to all realms, and can be used even in dilapidated places.'

With the blessing of supernatural powers, Lü Yang can be described as a human-shaped earth vein.

Any injury could be directly transferred to the heavens and earth, thus incurring their punishment. However, because he can transfer his injuries, the punishment from heaven and earth is meaningless.

The only possible outcome is that his opponent will be punished.

'The purpose of this supernatural power is to force Heaven and Earth to side with me and help me fight my enemies. It truly disgusts both the enemies and Heaven and Earth.'

That's so monstrous, I love it!

Lu Yang smiled slightly, withdrew the "Being One with the World" skill, and the white jade halo behind him also receded, hanging unremarkably like a full moon behind his head.

"Grandmaster, how strong do you think I am now?"

After listening to this, Ancestor You pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's very good. Strength is secondary; the main thing is that your supernatural abilities make you very difficult to fight."

This is a very tactful way of putting it.

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow, understanding the implication of those words: strength was secondary; in reality, his strength was still insufficient.

"It can't be called weak either."

Seeing this, Ancestor Tingyou quickly tried to smooth things over, continuing, "Those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage outside of the four major powers are roughly equal in strength to you now."

Even if I recover to my peak, I'm still only slightly stronger than you.

Lu Yang nodded upon hearing this, then asked curiously, "What exactly is the difference?"

"The difference lies in the Daoist principles!"

Master Tingyou explained, "As far as I know, the four major powers all have special Daoist methods prepared for the completion of the Foundation Establishment stage, which require the use of metal elemental refinement to achieve success."

“Your [Sword Intent] is one of them.”

This is the advantage of prestigious schools and sects.

In comparison, small sects and minor schools cannot obtain the true teachings and lack the accumulation of countless years by major sects. No matter how talented they are, they can only reach the level of Ancestor Tingyou.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang frowned again:

“I have now condensed my [Sword Intent], but I don’t feel that its enhancement to me is as exaggerated as I thought. It’s very strong, but it doesn’t seem strong enough.” “[Sword Intent] is just the foundation.”

Master Tingyou shook his head: "Do you have a sword technique that you can bring to its full potential? Sword technique is the key, and it's the reason why sword cultivators are number one in combat power."

It's important to know that sword intent is not exclusive to sword cultivators.

For example, Lü Yang, whose true form is not a sword cultivator, still managed to condense sword intent. In essence, this is just an extreme application of his soul and consciousness.

Of course, this is only temporary.

Once the Sword Pavilion truly attains the [Sword Dao Fruit], then under the influence of that Fruit, [Sword Intent] will become something unique to sword cultivators.

"In short, there is still room for improvement in your strength."

Master Tingyou poured cold water on Lü Yang's enthusiasm, then comforted him, saying, "However, your supernatural powers are very insidious, and I doubt anyone will fight you."

"Besides, the strength of the fighting methods is actually not important."

At this point, Master You sighed again: "For example, I am not good at fighting, but my shortcomings in fighting can be made up for by my cultivation level."

Lu Yang: “.”

Was Master Tingyou not skilled in magical combat?
Is this human language?
However, he quickly realized that if his combat strength was insufficient, he could make up for it with his cultivation level. Cultivation was always about cultivation level first!
It's better to fight with one's cultivation level than with magical power!

"【Yama Palace】?"

The False Gold Position Method!
Upon realizing this, Lü Yang immediately waved his hand and summoned Yan Taizu, the City God, and the Eternal Mother, who had already been refined into banner spirits, in turn.

Next were the Peak Master of Mending Heaven, the Dragon Girl Chongling, and the Guardian Goddess Su Nu.

There's also Longyue and Master Tingyou.
All eight of them can be blessed by incense and divine intervention to obtain the status of Foundation Establishment Perfection. Adding Lü Yang himself, there are a total of nine Foundation Establishment Perfection level individuals!
The conditions for the [Yama Palace] have been met!

Thinking of this, Lü Yang immediately began to rub his hands together in anticipation.

"Don't be too happy too early."

Seeing this, Patriarch Tingyou said with some helplessness, "The Yama Palace itself does not point to any rank or position, so how do you think it falsely holds a golden position?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang immediately regained his composure.

'.That's right.'

I didn't realize it before, but now that I think about it, the method of the [Yama Palace] in falsely holding the Golden Position is actually very strange. It only takes gathering nine people to reach the Foundation Establishment Perfection stage.

Is a position of authority not required?

But if one doesn't even have the fruition, what's the point of talking about false possession?
"The key lies in the metal element."

Upon seeing this, Master Tingyou explained, "In my deduction, the [Yama Palace] is actually very similar in essence to the 'Heaven Collapse' technique during Qi Refining."

"The sky collapses."

Lu Yang quickly recalled that the so-called "heaven collapse" was actually a killing move achieved by Qi Refining cultivators who had climbed to the Foundation Establishment Realm and then crashed down. It was a "dimensional reduction" technique. He had heard that Ancestor You had used it on him before, and he only managed to block it because he was "not bad at all".

"The same applies to the [Yama Palace]."

"The principle is to elevate oneself to a 'height' similar to that of a fruition, so that the [Yama Palace] can exert power similar to that of a fruition."

"This is actually quite similar to the process of seeking gold."

"Therefore, both require the element of metal."

At this point, Master You finally revealed the biggest limitation of the [Yama Palace]: "Each time the [Yama Palace] is cast, it is equivalent to asking for gold once."

"Seeking gold requires consuming the essence of gold."

"In other words, if the [Yama Palace] is to falsely hold the position of the Golden One, it must consume the Golden Essence. Once the Golden Essence is exhausted, the [Yama Palace] will disintegrate!"
