Chapter 118: The Saint Sect Truly Abounds with Talents
The formation on the desolate wilderness wasn’t considered high-level. Lu Yang glanced at it; it didn’t even reach Rank 7. The formation had only one effect— qi gazing and revealing images.
Rather than saying this formation was used to protect oneself, it was better to say it was used to find enemies.
Lu Yang didn’t deliberately conceal his aura. Therefore, as soon as he and Qin Tianhe arrived, the formation activated immediately, and a beam of formation light shone towards the two.
At the same time, dozens of gazes also landed on Lu Yang.
Lu Yang raised his eyebrows slightly upon seeing this, because he discovered that the owners of these gazes seemed very different from the Saint Sect disciples in the Heaven-Connecting Cloud Sea.
Because within these gazes were scrutiny, apprehension, and even ferocity… but no fear.
However, Lu Yang quickly realized.
This was normal.
On the Righteous and Demonic battlefield, there weren’t that many rules. Foundation Establishment beating Qi Refining, and disregarding martial ethics happened frequently. Those who would fear were already dead.
The remaining ones were all a bunch of daring desperadoes.
Lu Yang swept a glance and could even see many disciples silently taking medicine, regulating their breath, and treating their injuries, yet without the slightest complaint or dejection.
Occasionally hearing some conversations about acquaintances who had already been besieged and killed, these Saint Sect disciples didn’t care at all and would even laugh loudly in mockery.
Obviously, regarding the matter of the Saint Sect being jointly suppressed by the Dao Court and the Pure Land, let alone Perfected Lord Qingcheng Feixue outside, even the Saint Sect disciples themselves didn’t care much. Being killed only proved insufficient strength. Look at us, the truly capable ones, haven’t we carved out a path of survival?
If you’re bad, practice more; if you can’t afford to play, don’t play.
On the other side, Qin Tianhe also looked accustomed to it. He casually beckoned a Saint Sect disciple over and asked, “Where is Xu Xin? Is he still alive?”
“…Still alive.”
That disciple answered and led the two into the depths of the formation. There, a youth with red lips and white teeth was waving his arms at the crowd:
“Everyone, we should unite!”
“Two Direct Disciples have already been killed. If we don’t unite now, we will only be defeated one by one. Do you want to die in this lousy place?”
“If you don’t want to die, accept my leadership.”
“As long as you follow my instructions, at least thirty percent of us can survive. I also believe all Saint Sect disciples are my brothers and will definitely be willing to cooperate with me…”
Before the youth could finish speaking, a Late Stage of Qi Refining disciple suddenly spoke up, his tone disdainful: “Listen to your leadership? Where do you place Senior Brother Chong Ming? Senior Brother Chong Ming is the blood descendant of Senior Uncle Chong Guang, and his strength is unquestionable. Even if someone really has to lead, it should be him…”
Splurt!
Before that disciple could finish speaking, a palm had already struck his chest, instantly sending him flying sideways. After landing, he vomited blood ceaselessly.
After doing all this, the youth calmly wiped his hands:
“Those unwilling to cooperate are not my brothers.”
“Xu Xin, you seek death!”
On the other side, a heroic and spirited young man instantly flew into a rage. A sword pellet appeared out of thin air, exploding into a magnificent sword rainbow that swept towards the youth’s body.
“Little Young Master, others spoil you, do you think I will spoil you?”
Xu Xin’s figure vanished instantly, dodging the sword light slash. Afterward, he confronted the young man named Chong Ming, killing intent emerging in his eyes.
Meanwhile, the two people surrounding them didn’t care at all. Instead, they revealed excited smiles as if watching a show.
“…All of you stop!”
Seeing this, Qin Tianhe immediately roared loudly. Then, without another word, he stepped aside to clear the path, placing Lu Yang in front of himself: “In front of the Perfected One, who dares to be impudent!?”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere changed abruptly.
“Perfected One? Impossible!”
“Tianhe? Are you joking?”
“Who is the Perfected One?”
For a time, everyone’s gazes fell on Lu Yang in unison. Initially, there was a bit of scrutiny, but soon subtle changes appeared.
Especially Xu Xin, whose expression changed slightly.
He had met Lu Yang together with Qin Tianhe back then and witnessed with his own eyes the scene of Lu Yang calming the Equilibrium Sea with one breath. At this moment, he was naturally inexplicably shocked.
Is he really fucking Foundation Establishment!?
Thinking of this, Xu Xin immediately restrained his spiritual power, then walked up to Lu Yang respectfully: “Disciple Xu Xin greets the Saint Sect Perfected One.”
And although the others hadn’t met Lu Yang, they weren’t blind. Even if Lu Yang didn’t let Su Nü enhance him at this moment, the stature piled up by his Great Divine Abilities was equally beyond their reach. They had only felt a similar sensation from the strongest among the few Direct Disciples.
For a time, the atmosphere instantly relaxed quite a bit.
Meanwhile, Lu Yang looked at that handsome young man who had just confronted Xu Xin. surprisingly, he had actually met the other party once.
But not in this life, rather in the life before last.
Back then, when I went to the Refining Arts Secret Realm to cultivate [The Sage Steals], there was a Direct Disciple before me who failed to cultivate it… that Direct Disciple was him!
Chong Ming, son of Perfected One Chong Guang?
Before coming, Qin Tianhe had roughly introduced him to the Direct Disciples participating in this Dao Seizing War, including their personalities.
According to him, although Chong Ming was the son of Perfected One Chong Guang, he hated people saying he was a second-generation immortal the most. He always wanted to rely on himself to cultivate and even publicly declared that he would surpass Perfected One Chong Guang with his own hard work and talent… Regarding this, most Saint Sect Direct Disciples had only one evaluation—
An enviable fool.
Immediately afterward, he looked at Xu Xin. Without a doubt, this was a smiling tiger. One second he was calling you brother, and the next second he would attack and hurt people.
And this person was ridiculously bold.
No matter what, Chong Ming was the direct blood descendant of a Grand Perfected One at Foundation Establishment Perfection. Yet he dared to publicly angrily rebuke him, and even harbored killing intent while attacking.
Describing him as a madman was not an exaggeration at all.
As for the two Direct Disciples who hadn’t spoken since the beginning and had been watching the show, they were a man and a woman.
The man had no name; even Qin Tianhe only knew his Daoist title “Jiao Long” (Flood Dragon). The woman was named Bi Feiyuan, a Direct Disciple from Heaven-Mending Peak.
Being able to escape the siege, their strength was naturally not weak either.
Daoist Jiao Long, from Beast Taming Peak, one of the four Inner Sect peaks.
His biggest dream in life was to turn himself into a dragon. Therefore, after joining Beast Taming Peak, he transplanted demonic beasts onto his own body almost every day.
According to him, a True Dragon has nine aspects. In other words, as long as he could gather all nine demonic beasts representing the nine aspects of a True Dragon onto his body, he could use this to break through to Foundation Establishment and transform into a True Dragon. So beneath his seemingly normal body, it was actually all demonic beast body components.
A typical lunatic.
As for Bi Feiyuan, she was equally illustrious.
Just looking at her appearance, Bi Feiyuan was a gorgeous woman of sixteen years. Her curvaceous and delicate body was only covered by a layer of thin gauze; the bright red was clearly visible.
If it were just this, it wouldn’t count as much.
Heaven-Mending Peak, after all, was also very normal.
What truly made her stand out from countless Saint Sect disciples and promoted to Direct Disciple was a Great Divine Ability she majored in, named “Heart of Devil in Sea of Desire.”
As the name suggested, this Great Divine Ability would cause anyone who felt desire towards her to suffer qi deviation.
So Bi Feiyuan dressed so revealingly. Every time she fought with someone, the first thing she did was boldly burst her clothes, then fight the enemy bare-chested.
The effect could be called a mass-attack killer weapon.
Undoubtedly, this was a formidable bitch.
Oh right, there was also Qin Tianhe.
He was a slacker.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang couldn’t help but sigh.
Looking around—fool, madman, lunatic, bitch… within such a huge Saint Sect, was there really no second good person as normal as him?
