Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 777 Lü Yang's Dirty Tactics!

【sea of ​​bitterness】.

The endless imagery of the water surged, reflecting a chaotic array of colors. Standing atop it, [Angxiao] could immediately see the beam of light reaching the heavens in the distance.

"This is...clearing the way."

A hint of surprise appeared in Angxiao's eyes: "Isn't it a ritual for the sublimation of one's fruition? No, opening the path itself is his ritual for the sublimation of one's fruition?"

His expression quickly turned serious.

The ritual for attaining higher spiritual status sounds similar to the ritual for seeking gold, something that can be accomplished as long as one has good aptitude, a strong background, and diligent preparation.

But that's not actually the case.

The difficulty levels of the two are completely different, and the most important indicator is that it must be "unprecedented in history" in order to gain recognition.

In other words:
"The path he opened up, or the way he opened it, had never been done before, and it was also extremely consistent with the imagery of the fruition he held."

This piqued Angxiao's curiosity.

However, this curiosity quickly turned into killing intent and indifference. If it were any other cultivator, he wouldn't mind forming a good relationship with them.

After all these years, most of his fellow Daoists from back then are dead.

I'll submit another one then.

However, the thought that the other party might be in cahoots with that nameless beast immediately filled Angxiao with intense killing intent.

We cannot let this person succeed!

'Otherwise, if he successfully paves the way and completes the crucial transformation before becoming a Great True Monarch, it will be almost impossible for me to kill that unknown beast.'

Thinking of this, Angxiao looked around again.

What about people?

He had clearly seen that guy when he was calculating the cause and effect, but now he was nowhere to be seen. Had he run away? Or perhaps—

"Pfft!"

Before Angxiao could react, a slender hand reached into the real world through the cracks of logic and pierced through his chest with ease.

Lü Yang has made his move!
His tactic was simple: just like before, he would slip into the cracks of logic, making himself invisible to [Angxiao], and then launch a surprise attack.

The effect is remarkable.

Previously, Angxiao had only opened his heart to him, but now he had finally opened his heart to her in return, which made Lü Yang feel that the two of them were even closer.

"Boom!"

In an instant, billowing black energy burst forth from the palm of Lü Yang that had pierced Ang Xiao's chest, transforming into a mysterious ring that sliced ​​through space.

Wherever the Xuan Ring passed, the smoke surrounding Angxiao was also stained black. The originally hazy, colorless, and odorless smoke suddenly became pungent and putrid. As the Xuan Ring rotated, it seemed as if there was a mournful wail, causing people's minds to waver and their souls to lose control.

【Great Powerful Spiritual Kui Gang Righteous Qi】!
Now that things have come to this, Lü Yang certainly won't waste any more time and words with [Ang Xiao]. He'll kill you with a single move. You can talk after I've killed you!
However, the next second, Lü Yang felt his head sink.

What was I just doing?

With a blink of an eye, all memories of the sneak attack on Angxiao were erased, along with the events that had just occurred, which were forcibly rendered nonexistent.

[Angxiao] was completely unharmed.

"interesting."

A faint voice rang out, clearly indicating that Angxiao was about to say something hurtful, but before he could finish speaking, the smoke in his chest suddenly exploded.

Boom!

A faint red glow and a fishy smell emanated from the scattered smoke—that was Angxiao's blood. Although he erased these injuries with his perception barrier the next second, it was undeniable that Lü Yang's shameless sneak attack had worked. While it wasn't fatal, it did cost him more mana than he had anticipated.

Those narrow eyes also turned cold as a result.

"You haven't forgotten?"

[Angxiao] With such skill, he instantly determined the cause of the injury: the perception barrier had not completely erased Lü Yang's memory of the sneak attack.

Why wasn't it erased?
He was absolutely confident in his own intellectual biases. The only way to become immune to intellectual biases was to be of a higher rank than him, and Lü Yang was clearly not among them.

In that case——

"I didn't use the Barrier of Knowledge on you. No, it's not that I didn't use it, but that I only used a little, the same method you used before, which was [Heavenly Fire]?"

Lu Yang did not answer.

However, Angxiao did indeed guess the truth. The reason he was able to avoid Angxiao's cognitive bias was because of the rules he had just inscribed for himself.

It remains a logical paradox.

Original logic: I forget something = I have no memory of that thing. New logic: I forget something = I have a memory of that thing.

These rules, which apply to oneself, are not only easier to inscribe than rules applied to the outside world, but they also demonstrate greater power when they are put into effect.

Thanks to this, Lü Yang was able to quickly break free from the influence of the obstacle of perception and maintain the results of his sneak attack on Angxiao. This is different from the use of the "Covering Lamp Fire". Faced with the obstacle of perception and perception, the "Covering Lamp Fire" can only be said to treat the symptoms. Lü Yang's method is now a fundamental solution and a means to truly contend with it!

Ultimately, influencing others and influencing oneself are not the same difficulty.

'Although there is still a gap between me and [Angxiao], I only affect myself, while [Angxiao] affects me; in this balance, it's a draw.'

Lu Yang's mind raced, but his actions were swift.

The next second, his aura changed. He made a hand seal, grasped a wisp of golden light, and the Righteous Path Flag appeared behind him.

"This is."

[Angxiao] was taken aback upon seeing this.

"Boom!"

In an instant, thunderous sounds resounded throughout the [Sea of ​​Bitterness], and then bursts of light appeared, transforming into the speed of lightning-fast golden snakes and the rushing of clouds like iron horses, generating boundless power and might.

This is—[Thunderbolt]!
A flash of fire, a thunderous roar, and all the heavens above obeyed the command. The fundamental mystery is called the "General's Command," a mysterious power to bless subordinates.

The specific effects are very simple.

In short, subordinates who receive this mysterious blessing can share in the rank of [Thunderbolt Fire], and this blessing is not limited by the recipient's cultivation level.

Even if you were just a mortal before, after receiving the blessing of the [General's Order], you can obtain a terrifying rank that is enough to participate in the battle of the True Lords. Perhaps to the Golden Core True Lords, you are just an ant, but with the blessing of the [General's Order], you also have the possibility of many ants biting down an elephant.

More importantly, these positions can be superimposed.

In short, the more "soldiers" empowered by [Thunderbolt], the more positions they accumulate that may even exceed the [Thunderbolt] itself!
The more soldiers it has, the stronger it becomes!
'This is a rank for leading troops. If Heavenly Fire is the emperor, the ruler, then Thunderbolt Fire is the general leading troops.'

Of course, Lü Yang used it not because it was particularly powerful.

It was mainly because of one of his ideas.

The next second, the banner spirits within the Righteous Path Banner swarmed out, covering the sky and the earth, and at a glance, they occupied every inch of space around [Angxiao].

The light of [Thunderbolt] climbed onto these banner spirits.

With such changes, although each banner spirit is still insignificant to Angxiao, it is no longer a speck of dust that can be completely ignored.

"Make your move!" Lü Yang waved his hand.

"Boom!"

At a command, all the banner spirits acted simultaneously, forming hand seals, and various spells and supernatural powers poured out under the blessing of [Thunderfire].

【Angxiao】was instantly submerged.

Beneath his feet, the vast [Sea of ​​Bitterness] was blasted into a deep crater, and the surrounding waters transformed into raging waves.

Even so, Angxiao remained completely unmoved.

"It just looks impressive,"

He even frowned, not understanding the meaning of Lü Yang's actions. Even if he wanted to counter his intellectual limitations, shouldn't he have used some more targeted methods?

Let's set aside the question of what [Thunderbolt] is like.

You've only borrowed the profound mystery; its power is no match for the original. Even the original, the Great Sage Xuan Yuan, is worlds apart from him.

What's the use?

The very next second that Angxiao was thinking this, a sudden, intense, indescribable feeling of weakness swept over his entire body.

What happened?!

This change was completely beyond Angxiao's expectations, and finally a look of astonishment appeared in the eyes of this former number one True Lord of the world.

Only Lü Yang knew the reason.

[Golden Talent: Slay All Evil!]
[You have stacked ten kill marks and detonated them.]

[Judgment: You only surpassed the target in the realm of magic; the opponent is now in a weakened state, lasting for the duration of an incense stick burning.]

Looking at the information that appeared on the [Book of a Hundred Lifetimes], Lü Yang grinned.

'Indeed, my guess was right!'

'The banner spirits blessed by [Thunderbolt] are actually one with me; their attacks, according to the talent calculation, are actually my attacks.'

"So I can have them do it for me, using a massive number to quickly stack the killing marks to ten layers, then detonate them. I don't need to take any risks myself; I can just watch the banner spirits sacrifice themselves!"
