Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 497 Passing on the Torch

[No Heaven], above layers of clouds and seas.

Mu Changsheng looked bewildered. He remembered using the Myriad Spirits Banner when he created the [Boundless Heaven]. How could it still have a banner spirit?

'No, it's not a pure banner spirit. A living person entering the banner? Not only that, the banner master even specially reshaped his physical body and restored his freedom. Where did this banner master come from, being so kind? My inheritance should have fallen into the Jiangbei Demonic Sect, how could there be good people in the Demonic Sect?'

In an instant, Mu Changsheng's mind raced.

As the previous owner of the Myriad Spirits Banner, he had already conducted in-depth research on the banner's spirits, which was why he could immediately see the abnormal state of Ancestor Tingyou.

But that's all.

Although he could tell that Ancestor Tingyou had once been a banner spirit, he did not realize that even now, Ancestor Tingyou was still under Lü Yang's control.

Because this is the domain of the "Book of a Hundred Generations".

The banner spirit in Lü Yang's hands had been completely transformed after being cleansed by the [Book of a Hundred Lifetimes], and was now completely different from the banner spirit that Mu Changsheng knew.

However, this does not prevent Mu Changsheng from having a high opinion of Ancestor Tingyou.

'Hanling is great!'

'Since he served as a banner spirit, he must have had close contact with [Wu You Tian], so his success rate in obtaining [Wu You Tian] should be higher.'

The next second, he looked at Chongguang, a look of amazement in his eyes: 'This one is no ordinary reincarnation of a celestial being. Not only is his fortune boundless, but his Dao heart and talent are also quite good. If we were to entrust the [Heaven of Nothingness] to him, there should be a great chance that he could successfully prove it.'

Thinking about this, Mu Changsheng even felt a little troubled.

Who to choose?
Just then, Ancestor Tingyou suddenly spoke up: "To be honest, I have been studying your [Heaven of Nothingness] for a long time in private."

".oh?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Changsheng immediately raised his head and then smiled, "Interesting. In that case, what do you think of my [Heaven of Nothingness]?"

Mu Changsheng spoke modestly.

But in reality, asking such a question is a form of self-praise, since not everyone can cultivate a heretical fruition out of thin air like him.

However, the next second, Master Tingyou shook his head:

"If judged by the standards of an ordinary person, then your [Boundless Heaven] is a masterpiece, but for me, I can only say that you still need to practice more."

Mu Changsheng: "."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Changsheng's smile remained, but a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes: "Then, fellow Daoist, what else do you think needs improvement?"

This was originally a sarcastic and strange statement.

Who would have thought that after listening to Master You, he would say with a solemn expression, "Leaving aside other things for now, at least the illusion here has a lot of room for improvement."

"I observe that the trials here are all based on your experiences, fellow Daoist. Although they are thrilling, they become somewhat tedious after a while. I suspect that when you founded [Wu You Tian], it was not to seek the Dao, but to deal with the True Monarchs of the world. In essence, you used them as weapons."

At this point, Master You shook his head:
"In my opinion, fellow Daoist, you have wasted such a great position. If you cultivate it patiently, the potential of this position will not be inferior to that of a traditional position."

Mu Changsheng remained silent for a moment upon hearing this.

Master You is right. [Wu You Tian] is merely a weapon he uses to restrict the True Lords of the world, not the foundation he plans to use for seeking the Dao.

However, Mu Changsheng scoffed at the potential mentioned by Ancestor Tingyou.

"The orthodox attainment originates from the Heavenly Emperor, how can it be compared to mere heretics? Although you have exceptional talent, you are ultimately blinded by a leaf and speaking recklessly."

"maybe."

Master Tingyou remained noncommittal, but carefully examined his surroundings once more. His eyes shone brightly, and it seemed as if countless spiritual lights were flowing between them.

During the six months that Lü Yang spent in seclusion cultivating, he was not idle. In addition to mastering the [Heavenless] divine power, he also secretly took some time to go to Skull Mountain to retrieve the fragments of his soul that he had "lost" in the Witch Ghost Secret Realm, which made his comprehension leap forward compared to before.

The next second, Master You chuckled and said:

“If you, fellow Daoist, hand over [Wu You Tian] to me, I am confident that I can make him seal off the True Monarchs of the world for a longer period of time, and the sealing effect will also be much stronger.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Changsheng was immediately stunned:

'Are you kidding me?'

【Wu You Tian】is his masterpiece, especially in the function of sealing off all the True Lords in the world, which he believes he has achieved to a near perfection.

Sixty years is the limit.

Although if a True Lord were willing to pay the price and burn down the cave heaven, it might take thirty years to break the blockade, but that would already be an extraordinary achievement.

After all, the "Heaven of No Existence" is merely an external path attainment!
To achieve such a feat at the level of an outsider is already extremely exaggerated, yet now, Master You actually says that he still has room for improvement?
However, Mu Changsheng quickly regained his composure. He was not angry at all; instead, he became more serious than ever before, and bowed respectfully to Ancestor Tingyou, saying, "I humbly request your guidance, fellow Daoist."

"Fellow Taoist, you're welcome."

Master Tingyou returned the greeting and then sent out a divine sense. Mu Changsheng carefully examined it and then exhaled a deep breath after a moment.

Upon seeing this, Chongguang, who had remained silent the entire time, suddenly sighed.

'I don't need to make a choice.'

Mu Changsheng's reaction had already explained everything. Listening to Ancestor You's testimony of "No Heaven" was a done deal, irreversible, and there was no room for him to intervene.

"Fellow Daoist Chongguang."

Just then, Master Tingyou suddenly turned around, looked at Chongguang, and said sincerely, "The person behind me is actually a kind-hearted good person."

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need to worry too much."

"Given time, as long as you cooperate fully, the position of [Covering the Lamp] will surely be yours in the future. For you, doing more now will only lead to more mistakes."

Upon hearing this, Chongguang frowned slightly, then shook his head:
"Thank you for the reminder, fellow Daoist. I will consider it carefully. However, this is my path, and only I can walk it. I will not entrust my life and fortune to others."

After speaking, Chongguang looked at Mu Changsheng:

“Fellow Daoist Xiantian, I would like to discuss a deal with you.”

".Can."

Mu Changsheng nodded upon hearing this. Then, the sea of ​​clouds rose and fell, obscuring the two of them. A moment later, Mu Changsheng emerged alone, and the heavy light had vanished.

"He got what he wanted and has already left."

Mu Changsheng said calmly, "Fellow Daoist has amazing talent. You have seen through many things without me having to explain. Since that's the case, I won't go into any more details."

The next second, light appeared in his palm.

The light converged and transformed into the shape of a precious pill, inscribed with countless talismans, ethereal and otherworldly, causing the surrounding sea of ​​clouds to surge.

[Compete for Freedom!]
“I understand your thoughts, fellow Daoist. Since you are willing, let me leave it to you. Perhaps it can bring new changes to the world.”

At this point, anticipation appeared in Mu Changsheng's eyes. He had seen the extent of Ancestor Tingyou's transformation of [Wuyoutian], and the changes were so significant that they shocked him. Strictly speaking, it could no longer be called [Wuyoutian]. If successful, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to him.

However, there was one thing he still had doubts about.

"Fellow Daoist, do you have the resolve to oppose the True Monarchs of the World at all costs? Faced with the oppression of the True Monarchs of the World, do you have a reason to persist?"

Mu Changsheng questioned in a deep voice.

This is the key point: if the person who has proven the existence of "No Heaven" is a weakling who dares not oppose the true rulers of the world, then he is not a suitable candidate.

At the same time, Patriarch Tingyou's face showed a look of nostalgia:
'If I were alone, I probably wouldn't dare.'

Because no one understood the true lord's terror better than him, by now he had long since lost his former ambition and was no longer full of vigor.

"But Lü Yang is different; that kid still has ambition."

At this moment, the reason why Ancestor Tingyou attained the state of "No Heaven" was not for himself, but for Lü Yang and for the new future of the Witchcraft and Ghost Path.

Master Tingyou did not care about life and death.

They strive to live out their short lives and leave their achievements for future generations to inherit. This was how the ancient sorcerer and ghost priests did it, doing everything in their power to support him in his quest for gold.

Otherwise, even if he had enough cultivation in just three hundred years, he wouldn't have been able to gather all four Heavenly Generals and Earthly Fiends.

Seeking gold for a lifetime sounds amazing, but without the support of the entire sect's fortune, Ancestor Tingyou alone could not have accomplished such a thing.

'Now, it's my turn.'

'With such a successor, how can I, as the patriarch and elder, sit idly by?'

Something has to be done.

If one had to give a reason for being an enemy of the True Lord of the World, this would be it. It may not be grand, but it would be enough for Ancestor Tingyou.

The next second, Ancestor Tingyou composed himself, grabbing the ball of light from Mu Changsheng's hand without hesitation. In his hand, the divine power originally named [Competing for Freedom] gradually changed; the original name was erased, and a new name emerged:

[Passing on the Torch]
