Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 512 Overpowering Empress Xiao!
[Revisiting the Imperial Edict Landscape Painting]

This innate divine power unfolds like a scroll painting, revealing nothing unusual to the outside world. It appears as if it were merely layers of light piled up, looking flashy but impractical.

However, Empress Xiao, being in the midst of it, felt as if she had fallen into another realm. She could no longer see the Tianwu Palace, the pavilions and palaces, but only a vast expanse of mountains and seas, and the sun and moon hanging high in the sky. Under the cascading light of the sun and moon, there stood a figure.

"Boom!"

As soon as Lü Yang made a hand seal, raging flames immediately surged from his sleeves, transforming into countless soldiers and horses, which charged towards Empress Xiao with a soaring roar.

【The Book of Beacon Towers and Fire Points】.

The raging flames and billowing smoke completely sealed off Empress Xiao's surroundings, turning the place where she stood into a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood in an instant.

Empress Xiao remained calm upon seeing this.

'Do you really think I can't fight?'

Her gaze settled, her lips parted slightly, and a rich floral fragrance filled the air, like clean water washing away grime and dispelling the murderous aura of war.

Amidst the fragrance of flowers, rays of light burst forth, revealing peonies, lilies, cherry blossoms, red lotuses, and countless other flowers. These flowers then scattered in all directions, creating a breathtaking sea of ​​blossoms that filled the sky. The scene was so beautiful and dazzling that it was impossible to look away.

【Baihua Palace】!
Empress Xiao stood amidst the sea of ​​flowers, like a celestial being from heaven. Her graceful figure vanished instantly, and she calmly escaped from under Lü Yang's "Beacon Tower and Firewood Book".

The next second, right at the very edge of the sea of ​​flowers.

Accompanied by a dazzling light, Empress Xiao appeared silently, lifting her skirt, her delicate white toes gently stepping on a lustrous red petal.

"This is."

Upon seeing this, Lü Yang raised an eyebrow. His cultivation was now extremely high, and given that Empress Xiao's supernatural abilities were similar to his own, he quickly made a judgment:
'.The supernatural power of Earth (未土).'

'The imagery suggests that this "Palace of a Hundred Flowers" is a magical structure specifically designed to protect flowers from disaster and calamity.'

Thinking of this, Lü Yang looked at the official title above Empress Xiao's head, [Empress Ci Sheng Ling Si], which was also a title for those who had reached the peak of Foundation Establishment. It was derived from [Roadside Soil], and Wei Soil was one of the branches of [Roadside Soil]. With this official title, plus the supernatural power of [Seven Luminaries Heaven],
'Ten Divine Powers!'

Lu Yang was surprised. Undoubtedly, Empress Xiao had ten supernatural powers at this moment, which was enough to give her a huge advantage in the battle!

Just then, Empress Xiao moved again.

She opened her red lips, her chest heaving, and finally exhaled a breath of white mist. The mist danced in the air, quickly revealing its true form:

"Roar--!"

With a powerful roar, Lü Yang looked in the direction of the sound and saw a fierce tiger, white in color, sitting on a mountain ridge, with its blood-red mouth wide open. The tiger roared and stirred up a swirling sandstorm, and then it pounced on him fiercely!
'[Sitting Tiger]! '

Lu Yang was slightly startled as he watched the white tiger pounce towards him.

This is a Geng Metal Divine Power. It was the same divine power that Chen Taihe, the former master of Butian Peak, cultivated. I never expected to see it on Empress Xiao now.

Fortunately, it's not difficult to deal with.

The next second, Lü Yang took out a piece of jade with seven orifices.

This item is called the "Separation and Union Jade Tablet," which he borrowed from the Dragon Palace's treasury in his previous life. It can manipulate external energy to compensate for most of the injuries he suffered.

The reason it is now being held in the air by Lü Yang is because the [Separation and Union Jade Tablet] comes from the Dragon Clan and its image is "water". In places where water is abundant, metal is cold and water is frigid. Geng metal is prone to drowning. Therefore, using this rare treasure to contain the [Sitting Mountain Lord] can be described as a match made in heaven, which is enough to easily suppress this supernatural power.

But at this moment——

"receive!"

Empress Xiao let out a delicate shout, then raised her sleeve, unleashing a shower of golden light that preemptively locked the Jade Tablet of Separation and Union in mid-air.

[Includes Wanbao!]
Lu Yang was also familiar with this supernatural power, because he had settled the previous life's immortal spiritual chapters and was very familiar with the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends of the Metal Element.

'This is the divine power of Xin Metal.'

The metal element is used to make artifacts, and as the name suggests, this supernatural power can contain all treasures and control magical artifacts. The [Separation and Union Jade Tablet] is precisely the one that has been imprisoned by its mysteries.

However, Lü Yang was prepared.

Above his head, a dazzling array of divine light coalesced into a magnificent imperial crown. Then, he executed three spellcasting steps in one fluid motion: hand seals, incantation, and finger pointing.
[Edict to move mountains to rectify the Dharma]!
The Divine Power of Earth (戊土) [Emperor of Fate]!
If it were only the [Imperial Edict to Move Mountains and Rivers Orthodox Method], it might not be enough to suppress Empress Xiao's supernatural powers. However, with the blessing of [Emperor's Fate], things would be different. After all, [Emperor's Fate] itself is also an Earth element supernatural power, and it is a perfect match with the [Imperial Edict to Move Mountains and Rivers Orthodox Method], which is enough to multiply the power of the Taoist magic. At this moment, all three steps are complete. With a single finger pointing out, endless mud gushed out from under Empress Xiao's fluttering sleeves.

The once bright and shining [Han Wanbao] suddenly lost its luster.

This is the restraint of Wu Earth on Xin Metal. It should be noted that Xin Metal is buried by Wu Earth, and its form cannot change. How can it be reborn? This is what is meant by: "Heavy Earth buries Metal!"

The next second, Lü Yang held the [Tribulation Wave] in his hand.

"Qiang Qiang!"

The sword light vanished in the blink of an eye, and Empress Xiao's figure disappeared once more into the sea of ​​flowers. Using the [Hundred Flowers Palace] to move, she disappeared again in the far distance.

But it was too late.

The sword light was merely a decoy; the true killing move was another dazzling light hidden within it, as blazing as heavenly fire and as radiant as the sun and moon, delivered with a mere flick of the wrist.
A wise ruler governs!
When Empress Xiao appeared at the edge of the sea of ​​flowers, she discovered that her supernatural power, the white tiger transformed from the Mountain Lord, had already been seized by Lü Yang.

Play with it at will.

In an instant, Empress Xiao's face paled, seemingly in a state of extreme panic. However, on the other side, Lü Yang, who had gained the upper hand, did not press his advantage.

With a thought, he had already pinched two brilliant lights between his fingertips.

'The Rise and Fall of Dynasties!'

'【Panlong Root】!'

The former is one of the mysteries of Lü Yang's innate divine power, which can sense fortune and misfortune, while the latter is his Earthly Divine Power, the God of Fortune, which can resolve all evil influences.

When the two are combined, they constitute the most advanced method of calculating cause and effect in the world.

Therefore, when Lü Yang used this opportunity to manipulate the web of cause and effect, he almost immediately broke through the obstacles set up by Empress Xiao and deduced her true intentions:
'She's trying to trick me'

"Yes, that's right. I discussed the Dao with her for a long time. She knows perfectly well that I cultivate [Heavenly Fire] and that my cultivation is exceptionally high. How could I possibly suppress her so easily?"

'This is a setup.'

'They're trying to lull me into a false sense of security, so that just as I unleash my ultimate move and prepare to secure victory, they'll use that supernatural power to inflict a devastating blow.'

The Seven Luminaries Celestial Divine Power, [in harmony with the world]!
In his previous life, Lü Yang used this supernatural power to kill Tian Qiu directly, but he never expected that Empress Xiao would use the same method on him in this life.

"The most powerful effect of 'Being in Harmony with the World' is when no one knows about it. Unfortunately, while this move might work on others, trying to use it on me is wishful thinking. However, with 'Being in Harmony with the World' present, the opponent is like someone wearing a tortoise shell, making them quite difficult to deal with."

Thinking of this, Lü Yang glanced at Empress Xiao again.

Empress Xiao was different from him; she did not possess any special supernatural powers or mysteries related to cause and effect. Therefore, her attainments in cause and effect were only at the level expected of someone who had reached the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage.

Therefore, she was completely unaware that Lü Yang had discovered her intentions.

Of course, this confidence also comes from being "in harmony with the world," since causal calculations might predict danger, but they cannot predict the effects of supernatural powers.

Unfortunately, she ran into someone who was cheating.

Now that he was fully aware of the effects of "being in harmony with the world," Lü Yang naturally couldn't resort to any more radical methods, and he quickly made up his mind.

The next second, Lü Yang turned around.

Immediately afterwards, billowing black flames rose from the ground, engulfing his body and transforming into a towering, blue-faced, fanged statue that stood on the earth.

[Heaven encompasses all phenomena!]
Empress Xiao was taken aback upon seeing this. She was well-versed in Daoist texts and knew most of the martial arts techniques of the four major powers in the world. At a glance, she recognized Lü Yang's true nature:

'A demonic sect technique!?'

Isn't he the World-Honored One?
Before Empress Xiao could delve deeper into the matter, Lü Yang manipulated the [Heavenly General Survey of All Things] to extend his large hand towards her, then made a gesture of grasping.

"Boom!"

In an instant, Empress Xiao felt dizzy.

[Overall Photography] Amazing!
This mysterious, formless, and intangible technique, specifically targeting the soul, caught Empress Xiao completely off guard. When she regained her senses, her vision was already filled with the sharp edge of the sword!
