Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 553 Hongtian Zhenren
Lü Yang did not wait long on Lonely Heart Island.

Three days later, several streaks of light broke through the air and landed outside Lonely Heart Island. One of them was dressed in magnificent robes, with a prominent official title above his head.
[Immortal Court Envoy to Pacify the Seas], a second-rank official!
Not only that, at this moment, this official position was emitting spiritual energy, and visible networks of the Great Dao appeared in the sky, casting down countless rays of light, all of which were added to the official position, continuously raising the aura of the person holding the position, almost reaching a certain critical point.

'This isn't considered weak even in the late Foundation Establishment stage.'

Lu Yang observed in secret and knew that this was the blessing of the [Immortal Kingdom Dao Law]. The [False History] revered the Immortal Court, so it was not difficult for the [Immortal Kingdom Dao Law] to have such a scale.

Besides, strictly speaking, this is not even as good as the real world.

In the present world, as he ruled the world, the laws of the Immortal Kingdom almost occupied the entire inland and overseas regions, with only the Holy Sect and the Sword Pavilion's mountain gates being spared.

Even so, the [Immortal Kingdom Dao Laws] still greatly enhance the abilities of cultivators in official positions. Although it doesn't allow them to fight beyond their level, it can still help them reach the peak of their current realm. More importantly, there are a lot of cultivators in official positions.

This is a snowball effect system.

The larger the scale of the Immortal Kingdom's Dao Laws, the stronger the official-ranking cultivators become, until they unify the world and even become the strongest among the four families.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have left Chongguang alone outside.

After all, he has now entered the [pseudo-history], and if Chongguang wants gold, he won't be able to sense it. Of course, Lü Yang is certain that Chongguang won't act recklessly.

'Uncle-Master Chongguang is quite clever. He's an old Saint Sect True Person; his desire for gold can't be hidden. If he dares to ask, Empress Xiao and Tianqiu will dare to cause trouble. Now that the [Immortal Kingdom's Dao Laws] are everywhere, with its blessing, Uncle-Master Chongguang, distracted by his pursuit of gold, might not be a match for them.'

As the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes.

Now that things have come to this, he has already established his dominance over the world. Unless his Uncle-Master Chongguang is a fool, he would not risk going against him at this time.

"Boom!"

The next second, the formation of Lonely Heart Island was activated, and Suo Huan walked out with a smile, cupping his hands and saying, "It is a great honor for this humble cultivator to have the Immortal Envoy grace us with his presence."

As counterparts in different histories, Suo Huan had no difficulty impersonating Suo Lan. The respect and humility in his words and actions were ingrained in his very bones. Therefore, the two envoys had no suspicions. Instead, they nodded arrogantly and followed Suo Huan into Lonely Heart Island without any guard.

Then the two of them were both stunned.

Upon entering the island and a grand hall, Lü Yang's figure immediately came into view, and an indescribable sense of crisis arose in their hearts.

'not good.'

Before the two could react, Lü Yang's voice drifted over:
"My two fellow Daoists, you were originally my disciples. After reincarnation, you infiltrated various families. How could you forget the karma of your past lives? Why don't you quickly come to your senses?"

The two were stunned as soon as the words were spoken.

In an instant, under the influence of the [puppet], the two couldn't help but recall their past lives, and then they sighed deeply, unable to hold back their emotions:

"Alas! I never imagined we were actually your subordinates!"

The next second, the two looked at Lü Yang with no more wariness, but full of loyalty: "Thank you, sir, for guiding us back to the right path."

"It was nothing," Lü Yang grinned.

The entire process proceeded without any disturbance, except for a slight fluctuation in cause and effect, which was completely neutralized by the array that had been set up on Lonely Heart Island beforehand.

After that, there was no suspense. When a cultivator with an official position dies, their position reverts, revealing their true nature. Therefore, Lü Yang didn't make a move. Instead, he focused his attention on another cultivator from the Sword Sect. With a thought, the other cultivator displayed an expression of heroic sacrifice, allowing Lü Yang to act—

"Boom!"

With a single palm strike, the Sword Sect cultivator was instantly reduced to ashes. Almost simultaneously, Lü Yang felt a sudden enlightenment, and countless images flashed before his eyes.

That is one person's life.

Born into a prominent family of the Sword Sect, he was pampered and indulged in a life of luxury from a young age, never having to worry about cultivation. He progressed step by step to the Foundation Establishment stage, and finally accepted the family's mission to go to sea for further training.
Lü Yang had always foreseen the fate that awaited him if he hadn't met Lü Yang: late-stage Foundation Establishment, seeking perfection but failing to achieve it, and dying at the end of his lifespan.

During this process, his insights, his experiences, and all the corresponding causes and effects clearly appeared before Lü Yang's eyes.

"Kacha!"

The next second, the screen shattered.

Looking at his palm, Lü Yang realized: 'The karma is indeed there, but unfortunately, I am stronger than him, and the karma I bear is heavier.'

He crushed the other person's cause and effect.

After all, he has already reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, and the possibility of merely reaching the late stage of Foundation Establishment is insignificant to him and therefore of no use.

but--

'If a cultivator is currently at the Foundation Establishment stage but is destined to become a True Monarch in the future, their potential would be extremely useful to me!'

At this thought, Lü Yang's heart burned with passion:

'At least this time I successfully verified one thing: even if they are not the same entity, it's still possible to seize control of the opponent through defeat!'

Almost immediately, Lü Yang thought of that Hongtian Daoist. The other party seemed to be trying to prove the [Heavenly Fire] again. Having failed once before, he dared to ask again, so he must be full of confidence. If he killed him and took away his chance, it would be a great boost!
'No, killing them outright would be too wasteful.'

Lü Yang shook his head, his brows furrowed:

'I need to help him obtain [Heavenly Fire], and then kill him just before he succeeds. That way, the chance of seizing it will be the most valuable!'

Thinking of this, Lü Yang couldn't help but sigh:
'Good fortune, oh good fortune, even in another 'fake history,' you can play such a huge role for me; you truly are my good fortune!'

The key to turning the tide in my previous life was you.

I guess I'll still have to rely on you in this life!
Just then, Lü Yang suddenly raised his eyebrows.

At this moment, outside Lonely Heart Island, the rising sun shines brightly, casting its golden light as if spreading a layer of gold leaf on the sea, reflecting a magnificent and illusory scene.

Among them, one figure stood quietly.

He was handsome and elegant, wearing a golden robe, holding a book in his left hand, with his right hand behind his back, and an official seal tied at his waist. He looked both dignified and graceful.

'It's that Hongtian Daoist.'

Lu Yang was astonished, because although this Hongtian Daoist was Hongyun's counterpart, he did not have the dejected air of Hongyun who had wasted five thousand years. Instead, he was full of high spirits. If it weren't for the fact that his appearance was exactly the same as Hongyun's, he wouldn't even be sure of the other party's identity.

He just stood there quietly watching Lonely Heart Island.

He and Lü Yang on the island looked at each other across the distance, their expressions changing several times, from doubt to curiosity, and then to an indescribable anticipation.

The next second, he took a step.

With just this one step, he emerged from the reflection on the sea, his aura returning to its original simplicity, and he had indeed reached the profound state of the ultimate Foundation Establishment stage.

A clear voice drifted on the wind:

"May I ask your name, fellow traveler? Are you from the outside world?"

　The fourth update will be released in half an hour.
