Chapter 359: Do You Want to Truly Live?
Rumble!
Accompanied by a loud noise like the earth shaking and mountains trembling, the massive [Shaman-Ghost Secret Realm] emerged from the belly of [Skull Mountain], from which surged endless Yin Baleful Qi.
The subsequent development was more or less what Lu Yang expected.
Perfected One Yin Shan took action, obtaining the [Heavenly Corpse Baleful Qi] from the Shaman-Ghost Dao, while simultaneously luring out a group of [Divine Martial Sect] Perfected Ones. Finally, the Saint Sect Perfected Ones launched a siege.
“Bastard… You bunch of bastard!”
The angry roar of the [Divine Martial Sect] Sect Master rang out between heaven and earth. However, this Great Perfected One at Foundation Establishment Late Stage was currently enveloped under a curtain of night.
An even more massive spiritual power obscured everything.
Magnificent illusory colors obscured the sun, moon, and stars. Wherever they passed, all sounds were silenced, and heavenly secrets were hidden. It was unmistakably an Innate Divine Ability Lu Yang was quite familiar with.
[Hidden Stellar Radiance]!
Lu Yang had deduced this Divine Ability in his previous life, but he had always used it as an assassination method. However, looking at it now, his cultivation attainment back then was still too shallow. Using this Divine Ability for assassination was clearly a waste of talent. It was evidently a method of obscuring the sky and sun with magnificent momentum!
Instantly, heaven and earth became dim and dusky.
It’s Foundation Establishment Perfection!
Lu Yang’s gaze shifted slightly. From Hong Ju, he learned that after the Perfected Lords went into seclusion, besides him, the Saint Sect had another Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator presiding over matters.
This person was named Xiang Ye.
He hadn’t shown himself before because the [Perfected Lord Hanguang Who Drifts Above the Heavens] who backing him was consistently suppressed by Perfected Lord Qingcheng Feixue, so he chose to keep a low profile.
However, now that the Perfected Lords were in seclusion…
Chong Guang attained the stature of Perfected Lord and ascended to the outer heavens. The Great Perfected One under Perfected Lord Iridescent Brocade, Jun Tong, was only at Foundation Establishment Late Stage. Naturally, this person emerged.
This is training troops…
Lu Yang watched from afar, opening his true eye, and soon saw the changes in the situation clearly.
That Great Perfected One at Foundation Establishment Perfection, Xiang Ye, didn’t attack with full force. He merely used a Divine Ability to lock down heaven and earth, then let the other Perfected Ones swarm forward.
No wonder the [Divine Martial Sect] Sect Master was so aggrieved.
As a Great Perfected One, even if his inheritance was low, he wouldn’t be besieged by a group of Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivators to this extent. It was purely because there was a Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator suppressing him.
How the hell could he fight?
Hopeless, definitely dead.
Lu Yang withdrew his gaze. The annihilation of the [Divine Martial Sect] was a foregone conclusion. This time was even completely different from his previous life; the Saint Sect was probably serious.
In the previous life, with Perfected Lords presiding, the Saint Sect was as stable as Mount Tai. Plus, with Martial Uncle Chong Guang present, deliberately giving me a chance to earn merit, they were willing to let a few Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivators return. But now, with Perfected Lords in seclusion, a Great Perfected One from the [Divine Martial Sect] already poses a certain amount of pressure on the Saint Sect.
Thinking about it, the [Divine Martial Sect] wouldn’t escape this time.
However, Lu Yang naturally wouldn’t participate in such a great battle. He immediately concealed his aura, quietly arriving inside [Skull Mountain], and then summoned Su Nü.
“[Yama Hall]!”
Connecting to the earth veins and searching the universe, Lu Yang soon detected a slight anomaly in the earth veins of the eight-hundred-li [Skull Mountain]. His figure flashed instantly.
Almost simultaneously, inside [Skull Mountain].
“Who!?”
Just as Lu Yang arrived, a figure inside the earth vein opened his eyes. Amidst the fluctuation of aura, he was unmistakably in the state of falsely holding Foundation Establishment.
In the next second, he wanted to cut off the connection.
However, the gap in cultivation between the two sides was too great. Lu Yang at Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Perfection dealing with a falsely held Foundation Establishment was truly like Mount Tai crushing an egg, giving no chance at all.
But the figure’s reaction speed wasn’t slow. Seeing Lu Yang had arrived and was about to grab him, he immediately revealed a look of ruthlessness. His hand seals changed, and the earth veins of the eight-hundred-li [Skull Mountain] below rioted instantly, looking like they were about to explode and drag Lu Yang down with them…
“Freeze!”
Behind Lu Yang, the [Myriad Spirits Banner] unfurled, and Patriarch Nether Whisper’s figure emerged. He actually performed hand seals as well, calming down the rioting earth veins.
Seeing this scene, that figure was instantly stunned.
“How is it possible… you…”
Lu Yang didn’t give the other party a chance to speak. He struck out with a palm directly, smashing the figure into powder, then sent it into the [Myriad Spirits Banner] to be refined instantly.
After all, to him, this was just a stranger.
The real ‘Patriarch Nether Whisper’ was the person inside the [Myriad Spirits Banner] who restarted with him, blocked strong enemies for him in the previous life, and finally fell into a deep sleep due to severe injuries.
Inside the [Myriad Spirits Banner], Patriarch Nether Whisper took a deep breath, swallowing all the Primordial One Qi transformed from the other party. His already brilliant eyes became even brighter and wiser at this moment. Dense runes seemed to expound the principles of the Great Dao, all converging in those eyes.
After a long time, he exhaled deeply.
“So I actually had a split soul stranded in the [Shaman-Ghost Secret Realm]. Thanks to you, retrieving it now makes me feel much better.”
Lu Yang wasn’t surprised seeing this.
After all, [The Book of a Hundred Lifetimes] corrected all bugs. Patriarch Nether Whisper would automatically ignore all unreasonable points or mentally fill in the answers.
This is an opportunity.
Lu Yang looked at Patriarch Nether Whisper before him. With the supplementation from the original body of this life, his condition was visibly much better, no longer as weak as at the beginning.
How weak was he initially?
A dignified Great Perfected One at Foundation Establishment Perfection couldn’t even beat him at Qi Refining Perfection. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say he was on the verge of his soul scattering.
When overseas in the previous life, he only dared to falsely hold the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage when casting [Yama Hall], not daring to fake the position of a Great Perfected One. It wasn’t just because he didn’t have enough Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivators at the time, but more importantly, Patriarch Nether Whisper’s own soul couldn’t support the stature of a Great Perfected One anymore.
But this time, it was different.
If it’s now, the Patriarch should have the foundation to fake the position of a Great Perfected One. After all, strictly speaking, his fifth life has just begun.
It was just the time to strive!
After pondering for a moment, Lu Yang suddenly took out a Daoist book.
This was transformed from his divine thought, containing the method he used to refine the incarnation, Secret Record of Immortal Fetus Experiencing the World. This incarnation secret method could be called extensive and profound.
A incarnation severed by this method could even transform into a completely new person.
By the same logic, it had another marvelous use.
If I use this method to refine an Immortal Fetus and then let the Patriarch inhabit it, strictly speaking… it should be possible to resurrect the Patriarch!
Patriarch Nether Whisper had the conditions for resurrection.
Because like Chen Xin’an, he didn’t enter the banner after death but voluntarily entered while still alive, retaining a sliver of chance to return to the living.
The problem lay in whether Lu Yang, as the Banner Master, was willing.
If it were a past life, I absolutely wouldn’t be willing.
After all, Patriarch Nether Whisper’s talent was simply too high. Once resurrected, he might very well break free from control. The risk was too great for him, and uncontrollable.
In comparison, Lu Yang felt much more reassured about Patriarch Nether Whisper in this life. After all, the Patriarch Nether Whisper of the previous life had already demonstrated his attitude with actions… Of course, more importantly, the Patriarch Nether Whisper of this life had been washed once by [The Book of a Hundred Lifetimes] and couldn’t possibly betray him.
Lu Yang didn’t deny his dark thoughts. Without such thoughts, he would have died a hundred times over.
But since he had made a decision, he wouldn’t be stingy.
Using the Patriarch’s talent solely on me is a bit too wasteful. Transforming it into combat power will allow me to accumulate more bargaining chips for Seeking Golden Core in the future!
With this thought, Lu Yang instantly cast aside all hesitation.
“Patriarch.”
Lu Yang turned around, looking at Patriarch Nether Whisper, and simultaneously handed over the Secret Record of Immortal Fetus Experiencing the World in his hand: “Do you want to truly live?”
