Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 437 The Secret of Demon Subduing
Dalongjiang.

Lu Yang had long been curious about this great river that divides the four regions into east, west, north, and south, but had never seen it with his own eyes until now.

Looking out, this side is Jiangnan, and that side is Jiangxi. However, what separates them is not the sea, but the [Two Elements Life and Death Profound Light] that annihilates all things. It is surging and turbulent, as if it can swallow everything. Even if a Qi Refining disciple just gets close, he will be evaporated!

'What "Great Heilongjiang" is clearly a sea of ​​light from beyond the heavens.'

In an instant, Lü Yang recalled the scene he had seen when he returned: this wretched place was actually pieced together from five boundary heavens!
However, it's clearly not pieced together completely.

'Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to tell that this Great Dragon River was pieced together; it's a rift between five realms, without any proof of them being integrated.'

Just then, the Demon-Slaying Master spoke.

"Beyond this place lies the Pure Land of Jiangxi. I trouble you to accompany me this time, and I will also trouble you to bring my belongings back from the Pure Land later."

Lu Yang fell silent upon hearing this.

"Master, why do you insist on coming to the Pure Land?"

He had this question for a long time. After all, strictly speaking, the Demon-Slaying Immortal and the Pure Land had no enmity. The Pure Land was also one of the righteous paths.

Moreover, judging from his attitude, the Demon-Slaying Master seems to be coming to the Pure Land to die. But if that's really the case, doesn't he have the confidence to attain the [Sword Dao Fruit]? Otherwise, what is there to be afraid of? He could directly become a True Monarch, wielding his sword and slashing wildly. Who in the world could stop him?
"very curious?"

The Demon-Slaying Master chuckled and said, "Actually, there's nothing I can't tell people. This is my tribulation. I came to the Pure Land to end this tribulation."

'A calamity?' Lü Yang thought to himself.

On the other side, the Demon-Slaying Master continued:
"I have a deep foundation since childhood, and I was also quite arrogant in my youth. I easily established my foundation in my first life. I originally aspired to the Great Dao and vowed to become a True Lord in the heavens."

At this point, a shadow suddenly flashed across the eyes of the Demon-Slaying Master: "Later, due to some unforeseen circumstances, I was forced to switch to swordsmanship. At the time, I was resentful and unwilling, but I dared not show it. I was determined to achieve something in swordsmanship, so I went down the mountain to train and try to cultivate the strongest sword intent."

As they spoke, the Demon-Slaying Master had already entered the Great Dragon River.

Without him using any supernatural powers, he simply unleashed a [Sword Intent of All Slashes] that instantly carved a clear path through the originally turbulent Dalong River.

Lü Yang quickly followed behind.

"It was during my training down the mountain that I met a mortal, an ordinary schoolteacher in a mortal kingdom in Jiangnan."

"At the time, I was amazed."

"Because as a mortal, one should be as insignificant as grass, yet I discovered [Sword Intent] within him. A mortal has actually cultivated Sword Intent!"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang was stunned.

His first reaction was that it was absolutely impossible. A mortal could cultivate sword intent? What was the difference between that and a small horse pulling a heavy cart? Even if he did manage to do it, he would only die a violent death!

In other words——

'There's a trap! No, that's not right!'

Having been beaten so many times in this wretched place, Lü Yang had long since developed a habit of being extremely cautious and suspicious of anything that deviated from the norm!
'It's probably a trap!'

Lu Yang's expression changed slightly, but the Demon-Slaying Master saw it all and immediately laughed, "You are much more vigilant than I am. I didn't think too much about it back then."

"That mortal happened to condense his sword intent when I passed by, but because the pressure of the sword intent was too great, his mortal body could not maintain it. Others thought he had just fallen seriously ill and was about to die, so I took action to save him. Afterwards, we had a pleasant conversation and became friends."

"And the sword intent he condensed is [not to kill]."

At this point, a hint of nostalgia appeared in the eyes of the Demon-Slaying Master: "Back then, because my path to enlightenment was cut off, I harbored resentment in my heart, which is why I condensed the [All-Slaying] technique."

"However, the [All Slay] technique is too ferocious."

"It is named [All Slash], which naturally means that it will slash both the enemy and the user. Every time it is used, it will kill the enemy but also hurt the user. So my friend advised me not to use it anymore."

"In lieu of killing, he told me not to kill."

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang raised an eyebrow. He knew that sword intent was the obsession of a sword cultivator, unique and irreplaceable, yet it could be passed on to others.
The Demon-Slaying Master saw through Lü Yang's doubts and laughed, "At that time, I only wanted to obtain the best swordsmanship in the world. Someone was willing to give me a second sword intent, which was a great benefit. How could I refuse or doubt it? Of course, I gladly accepted it, and it did indeed help me a lot afterward."

【Not kill】 and 【All behead】.

The two sword intents, though at opposite extremes, are mutually inclusive. They are each other's whetstones, and the longer they are honed, the greater their power will become!
"Whenever he encounters injustice, [All Slay] will be tempted."

"Therefore, I will use [Non-Kill] to suppress it. In this way, [Non-Kill] will be strengthened, and [All Slay] will also be honed and refined." A fine sword is forged through tempering.

Who in the world can match the sword intent forged in this way? Eighty percent of the title of the Demon-Slaying Master as the number one swordsman in the world comes from this!
However, the way of the world is that if you borrow, you must repay.

The "Unkillable Sword Intent" was taken from someone else and nurtured by the Demon-Slaying Master for so long. It's like a fully grown leek; how could no one come to harvest it?
Thinking about this, Lü Yang already had a guess: "That mortal... came from the Pure Land?"

"good."

The Demon-Subduing Master nodded: "To be precise, he was a Buddhist disciple, a Buddhist disciple without a Dharma form, born specifically for me, and descended for me."

After saying that, he opened the storage bag and took out the head of the Pure Land Buddhist nun: "As for this one, she caused havoc in Jiangnan that day and died by my sword. Perhaps there was an element of intention involved. It was the Pure Land one who wanted to see my quality and see if I met his standards."

"Amitabha."

In the hands of the Demon-Subduing Master, the Pure Land Buddhist nun, with her dignified appearance, chanted the Buddha's name: "This humble nun said long ago that you, benefactor, have an enlightened mind and should enter my Pure Land."

"This"

Lu Yang frowned deeply: "Master, are you also going to stand by and watch this happen?"

Where is the founder of the Sword Pavilion? Please save him! This concerns his [Sword Dao Rank], come quickly and save him!

'Young friend, you're too attached to appearances.'

Seeing this, the Pure Contemplation Buddha smiled slightly: "Does young friend think that we have forcibly seized the sword, snatched food from the sword master's mouth, and greatly offended the Sword Pavilion?"

Is not it?

"Exactly the opposite!"

The Pure Contemplation Buddha explained, "Young friend, don't you think that without the principle of 'not killing,' how could the Demon-Slaying Benefactor's 'All Slay' have been honed to this level?"

"The Buddha's actions have always been mutually beneficial."

"The [Sword Dao Fruit] is in charge of killing and should be based on [Slaying All], while [Non-Killing] comes from the World Honored One and is an external force, so it is just an impurity to him."

"When you come to my Pure Land, you will surely sacrifice yourself to the sword. Both sword intents will sever the sword path fruition you have attained. My Pure Land will not take a single bit of it, but will only take back the non-killing that was given to you in the past. We will also rebuild your golden body and make you a Dharma protector Arhat of the Pure Land. In the future, you will also attain the true fruition of a Bodhisattva."

"No one was injured."

"In this way, Sword Pavilion will benefit, Pure Land will also benefit greatly, and the Demon-Slaying Benefactor will also attain enlightenment and enjoy bliss and freedom from now on."

"Wouldn't this be a win-win situation for everyone?"

The joyful laughter echoed through the Dalongjiang River, but it only made Lü Yang feel a chill to the bone.

'What a happy ending! They've clearly pre-arranged everything for the Demon-Slaying Immortal, from birth to death, completely consuming him and leaving him nothing at all!'

He had to admit that every time he thought he had seen through the bottom line of this wretched place, the powerful figures here would always show him through their actions.

They have no bottom line!

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a loud noise came from outside the Dalong River, and Lü Yang realized that the Demon-Slaying Immortal had led him all the way into Jiangxi Province.

All that could be seen was the light of Buddha.

"Amitabha."

On the shore, an old monk with a smile on his face and his hands clasped together was followed by a bustling crowd of mortals, each with a face full of piety.

"Pfft!"

The next second, the monks bowed their heads and performed a grand salute, saying:
"Welcome to the Arhat Wei Tuo, who has transcended countless eons, illuminating the wisdom of past lives, and now returns to the Pure Land of Lapis Lazuli."

"Good!"

"Good!"
