Chapter 370: Immortal Spirit Reached Completion, Sword Heart Illuminating Clarity

The moment the words left his mouth, Lu Yang actually regretted it.

Not regretting turning hostile against the Myriad Poison Cult, but mainly regretting saying it that way.

After all, as a Sword Pavilion Perfected One, how could he frame people and seize things by force so brazenly? And “exterminate completely leaving no one alive”—how brutal is that? That sounds like something the Saint Sect would say.

If it were the Sword Pavilion, he should have said: Today I take the [Myriad Tribulation Indestructible Gilded Silkworm] and the [Xin Metal], so I owe you karma. Since that’s the case, today I will send you all to reincarnation. In the next life, I will guide you to join the Sword Pavilion to repay this karma.

—That’s the right flavor!

As a result, he accidentally spoke his true thoughts, instantly adding a bandit-like air to his originally righteous words, making it easy for people to see something was amiss.

Sigh, my love for the Saint Sect is still too deep…

The thought of lamentation flashed and disappeared in Lu Yang’s mind in the blink of an eye. In the next second, he had already attacked. As for the life and death of the Myriad Poison Cult, he didn’t take it to heart at all.

Anyway, from the beginning, the Myriad Poison Cult had no path to survival.

Publicly, the [Divine Martial Sect] in the Northern Frontier had been annihilated by the Saint Sect. If the Sword Pavilion kept the Myriad Poison Cult, they might very well fall into the awkward situation of having enemies in both the north and south in the future.

Privately, it was for that Moon Worship Sacred Pool.

A treasure land nurtured by nature, even capable of nurturing [Xin Metal]. If I place my Immortal Spirit main body in it, it will surely accelerate the nurturing speed.

Maybe there was even hope to catch the last train of this sixty-year Great Era!

Compared to this, the [Myriad Tribulation Indestructible Gilded Silkworm] was even secondary. It would be best to get it, but if not, Lu Yang felt it wasn’t a pity either.

Clang!

Sharp sword cries resonated through the inner and outer heaven. Under the enhancement of [Law Upholder], Lu Yang’s aura instantly broke through the barrier, reaching the level of a Great Perfected One.

[Ming He Eternal Metal Sword]!

Without any hesitation, Lu Yang activated the Sword Foundation directly, scattering thousands of magnificent colors. Shining the [Mind Snare] Divine Ability, he instantly trapped Long Yue inside.

Long Yue just frowned slightly at this, vaguely sensing something was wrong. However, coming from a small sect, her foundation was far inferior to Lu Yang’s.

So even though she sensed something wrong, she didn’t realize she was already under the influence of the Divine Ability, only thinking it was some kind of soul-shaking technique.

“…Open the array, fight to the death!”

Long Yue’s beautiful eyes were firm. Her previous girlish demeanor disappeared completely. Only now did she finally show some elegance of the Myriad Poison Cult Leader, respected by all Perfected Ones.

Since Lu Yang wanted to push things to the extreme.

Then she also dared to risk her life to fight him!

In the next second, on the Sacred Mountain where the Myriad Poison Cult was located, the previously closed array reopened. Beams of magnificent light soared into the sky, cutting off the inner and outer heaven.

[Five Sacred Beasts Moon Worship Profound Array]!

Once the array rose, heaven and earth changed instantly. Day turned into night, a bright moon hung on the branch, and rolling [Moon Essence] light poured out like a waterfall!

Standing amidst the rolling profound light, Lu Yang stood tall without any panic, gazing around—Its gone…I felt something was wrong before. Now it seems someone was indeed watching me in the dark! Who was it? The Ye Family of the Sword Pavilion? Or that King Zhen Nan of the Dao Court?

“[Heavenly Spider Prison], [White Snake Lord], [Horse-Slaying Poison]!”

Just then, Long Yue chanted incantations and performed hand seals, summoning a white snake, a spider, and a scorpion successively.

The cultivation of the Myriad Poison Cult revered Gu.

Among them, there were five supreme Gu worms overriding all others, titled the [Five Sacred Beasts]. As the Myriad Poison Cult Leader, what Long Yue cultivated were naturally these Five Sacred Beast Gu worms…

“[Heavenly Spider Prison]!”

In the next second, a white inescapable net spread out. Silky strands didn’t attack Lu Yang directly but locked down the entire world around him.

Instantly, Lu Yang felt his body become heavy, like a butterfly falling into a spider web. Thoughts and movements were difficult to execute. He raised his eyebrows slightly, bursting out heavy Sword Qi. However, Long Yue remained unhurried, continuously manifesting spider webs, layering softness around fingers, binding Lu Yang in place just like that.

Seeing this scene, joy instantly appeared in Long Yue’s eyes.

The Myriad Poison Cult had lived in the Southern Frontier for a long time. Being neighbors with the Sword Pavilion for so many years, they naturally treated the sword cultivators of the Sword Pavilion as imaginary enemies and designed many methods.

Sword cultivators are indeed powerful, but not without flaws.

The biggest flaw is precisely their strongest point… that is their flying sword! Relying on the sharpness of the flying sword, they neglect their own true body. Usually relying on the incredibly fast sword speed and unparalleled attack power, it naturally doesn’t matter. But once these two are restricted, they are immediately helpless…

To put it bluntly, high attack but low defense.

Long Yue used confinement techniques against Lu Yang to restrict his speed and power, thereby forcing him to compete with her in true body and spiritual power!

I have the [Sun-Swallowing Toad] to swallow all external Qi and injuries, plus the array to share the damage for me.

On what basis can he outlast me?

Long Yue was full of confidence. With a thought, the remaining two Divine Ability Gu worms, [White Snake Lord] and [Horse-Slaying Poison], fell towards Lu Yang’s direction.

Boom!

Terrifying sound waves echoed boomingly within the Myriad Poison Cult Sacred Mountain, even suppressing Lu Yang’s [Sword Qi Thunder Sound], completely submerging his figure.

Between heaven and earth, thousands of magnificent colors intertwined.

Each magnificent color was a manifestation of Divine Ability. Seemingly ordinary, in reality, they contained vast might. If they landed overseas, they would be enough to collapse an island.

A moment later, a figure finally emerged from the center of the magnificent colors.

Seeing this scene, a smile instantly appeared in Long Yue’s beautiful eyes. However, before the smile could expand, it froze on her face as that figure became clear.

Because Lu Yang was unharmed.

On his body, rolling black qi converged into a majestic illusory image with three heads and six arms, surrounded by soaring profound fire, forcefully taking Long Yue’s Divine Abilities for him.

[Qian Heaven All-Governing Myriad Phenomena Dharma Body]!

This dharma body looked solemn and dignified. One hand tightly gripped [Horse-Slaying Poison], remaining unmoved even as the scorpion tail pierced its skin and flesh.

Another hand was raised high. The thick arm was wrapped by the snake body of [White Snake Lord]. The five fingers also gripped the vital spot of [White Snake Lord], yet allowed it to bare its fangs and tear at his flesh. Every second, the injuries on this dharma body were worsening.

However, what shocked Long Yue was…

Clearly, the dharma body’s injuries were constantly worsening, yet his aura didn’t weaken in the slightest. Instead, it became more intense, constantly climbing until it reached a certain limit!

What is this thing!?

Even in the Saint Sect, Foundation Establishment Perfected Ones who cultivated second grade true arts were extremely rare. Far away in the Southern Frontier, Long Yue naturally couldn’t recognize Lu Yang’s dharma body.

If it were King Zhen Nan Wu Taian, that would be more likely.

However, under the shroud of the [Five Sacred Beasts Moon Worship Profound Array], King Zhen Nan’s line of sight had been cut off, making it difficult to observe this place unnoticed.

Of course, this was also within Lu Yang’s expectations.

Otherwise, why would he start a war with Long Yue inside the Myriad Poison Cult? Only under such unnoticed circumstances could he unleash all his means!

In the next second, Lu Yang opened his eyes.

The dharma body was profound; the heavier the injuries, the stronger the divine ability. With a flip of his palm, a precious sword flowing with colors appeared in his palm.

Zheng—!

The sword cry rang out again. Lu Yang held [Tribulation Wave]. Wherever his gaze reached, it felt as if time had stopped, leaving only him in heaven and earth.

Even the loud noise of [Sword Qi Thunder Sound] turned into silence.

Numerous thoughts and thousands of distracting ideas returned to nothingness at this moment. Lu Yang’s body and mind seemed to enter a wondrous, indescribable state along with it.

And around him, numerous divine abilities naturally manifested.

[Master of Armaments], [Unyielding Metal], [Solemn Mystic Frost]… and a divine ability evolved under the enhancement of [Law Upholder]’s profundity, yet without light or shadow.

Only a melodious bell toll.

[Resonant Heaven Bell]!

Four Innate Divine Abilities coiled around the spiritual sword in Lu Yang’s hand at this moment, integrating with each other, and finally, all merged into his spiritual sword.

Maintaining stillness to the utmost emptiness. Sword heart clear and bright… is this sword heart illuminating clarity?

Lu Yang suddenly realized.

The sea-slashing sword of the previous life surfaced in his mind.

He draw his sword.

[Proclaim Might]…

The sword edge left the sheath. Instantly, it stole all the brilliance between heaven and earth, forcing Long Yue’s gaze to focus on it, unable to move away a fraction.

Lu Yang’s main body had been charging this sword for a long time. Borrowing the dharma body to push his divine abilities to the peak, plus the sword pavilion’s method of [Sword Heart Illuminating Clarity], the stature of a Great Perfected One, divine abilities and spiritual treasures… how could Long Yue, who came from a small sect, block it?

Shua!

A beautiful head flew up instantly.

The graceful physical body was directly shattered by the aftershock of the sword light. Only the soul escaped, but before falling into the [Netherworld], it was intercepted by a banner flag.

Foundation Establishment Late Stage Banner Spirit…

It’s mine!
