Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect-Chapter 375 : A False Alarm

Chapter 375: A False Alarm

"Of course, I recognize it."

Facing Guang Ming's inquiry, Lü Yang did not hesitate. He frowned and said, "That immortal spirit owes a karmic debt to our Sword Pavilion. After reincarnation, it should be a disciple of our Sword Pavilion."

"I'm planning to kill it to grant it this opportunity."

Upon hearing this, the amiable smile on Guang Ming's face froze.

‘A sword seed of the Sword Pavilion.’

Thinking of this, Guang Ming scrutinized Lü Yang carefully. Lü Yang, relying on his experience from multiple encounters with 【Ang Xiao】, managed to maintain a composed expression.

He was not joking; he was not afraid at all.

Because he discovered that the Guang Ming before him was far less terrifying than he had imagined.

After all, Lü Yang had witnessed the personal descent of the World Honored One.

That kind of despairing and terrifying pressure, even through the Book of a Hundred Lifetimes, was unforgettable.

Compared to that, Guang Ming was far inferior.

‘The Buddha Child... and the World Honored One don't seem to be the same entity?’

Although equally powerful and capable of crushing him, they couldn't prevent his suicide!

‘Although the true body of the World Honored One might descend, just like that time overseas, the descent requires time. Even if it's just a moment, by the time the descent is complete, I would have already restarted!’

Previously, he couldn't commit suicide purely because his immortal spirit body had fallen into a worldly trap, heavily influenced. Now, with the sword path avatar, he felt unrestrained.

As long as it wasn't a true Dao Master face-to-face, Lü Yang feared nothing!

Therefore, he was full of confidence at this moment, meeting Guang Ming's gaze without any guilt.

Suddenly, Guang Ming slightly tilted his ear, looking at the 【Victory Manifestation of the Dharmadhātu of the Victorious Intention】 behind him, showing a listening expression. Lü Yang raised his eyebrows upon seeing this, because in his divine sense, there was no communication between the two, as if Guang Ming was performing a monologue.

". This humble monk understands."

Immediately after, Guang Ming nodded and then looked at Lü Yang, smiling as he took out the 【Heart-Binding Hoop】 again.

"Would the benefactor be willing to become this humble monk's disciple?"

"Master, please seek someone more capable!"

Lü Yang's heart trembled upon hearing this, but he maintained a fearless demeanor, sneering, "I am a true disciple of the Sword Pavilion, a leader of the righteous path. How could I become your disciple?"

Guang Ming was not angered by this, as he didn't genuinely intend for Lü Yang to become his disciple. According to the revelation from the 【Victory Manifestation of the Dharmadhātu of the Victorious Intention】, his disciple should be the immortal spirit just now. Wanting Lü Yang to be his disciple was merely a substitute strategy.

‘Now, the karmic connection between me and that immortal spirit is severed.’

‘To reshape the karmic connection, I must perform a substitution of truth and falsehood, using the false immortal spirit to slay the true immortal spirit, thereby replacing its destiny. The strength of a true disciple of the Sword Pavilion has always been formidable.’

Slaying an immortal spirit should not be a problem?

This was Guang Ming's thought. Additionally, there was an unspoken intuition that something was amiss. Lü Yang's appearance here was too coincidental.

Although he hadn't discovered any issues, based on caution, it was always right to eliminate potential threats.

"The benefactor is merely unwilling now; soon, you will be willing."

At this point, Guang Ming began chanting scriptures, and the 【Heart-Binding Hoop】 in his hand once again radiated brilliant light, showing a tendency to fall upon Lü Yang.

"Clang clang!"

Faced with this scene, Lü Yang remained unafraid. He directly drew his sword, and under the blessing of 【Clarity of the Sword Heart】, majestic sword energy soared into the sky.

"Hmm? This is..."

Guang Ming's expression suddenly stiffened upon seeing this: "A sword cultivator?"

The 【Heart-Binding Hoop】 that was about to ensnare Lü Yang abruptly halted its descent. Guang Ming furrowed his brows, showing a hint of difficulty.

Within the Sword Pavilion, sword cultivators were the most special. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Because theoretically, every sword cultivator was a talent used by the Sword Pavilion to fill the 【Sword Dao Fruit Position】. As talents, they were obviously already claimed.

This was one of Lü Yang's sources of confidence.

‘I have backing!’

If his relationship with the immortal spirit was confirmed, there would be nothing to say. Guang Ming would undoubtedly act without scruples, directly suppressing Lü Yang.

However, now, as a pure sword cultivator, he was essentially a talent personally appointed by the Dao Master of the Sword Pavilion, the kind who had offered incense to the ancestors in the Reception Hall. In this case, Guang Ming, and even the World Honored One behind him, had to reconsider whether to continue targeting him.

Because that would essentially be snatching someone from the Dao Master of the Sword Pavilion.

". Amitabha."

After a moment of silence, Guang Ming ceased his spellcasting, recited a Buddhist chant, and then withdrew the 【Heart-Binding Hoop】. It wasn't out of fear, but rather unnecessary.

Seeing this, Lü Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, he had a rough estimate of Guang Ming's state. In his view, Guang Ming's strength was probably at the level of Foundation Establishment perfection.

Moreover, it mainly relied on the 【Victory Manifestation of the Dharmadhātu of the Victorious Intention】 behind him.

Guang Ming's own cultivation and life seemed entirely dependent on this manifestation, the two inseparable. This was also the key to his current strength.

If not for this, even with the great power of the World Honored One, personally cultivating, it would be impossible to elevate Guang Ming, a mere Qi Refining novice monk, to such heights in just ten years. His rise to the status of Buddha Child could only be attributed to the excessive reliance of the Pure Land Buddhist cultivation.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang's heart suddenly tightened again.

‘. Something's not right.’

Lü Yang looked around and saw Guang Ming with a contemplative expression, the 【Victory Manifestation of the Dharmadhātu of the Victorious Intention】 behind him showing no sign of being retracted.

What did he intend to do?

The next moment, Guang Ming shook his head, put his palms together, his face still bearing a compassionate smile, but a cold killing intent flickered in his eyes.

He had made up his mind: better to kill mistakenly than to let go!

This was the style of the World Honored One, and also Guang Ming's character. Although it was inconvenient to convert, since there was suspicion, it was better to simply kill!

Seeing this, Lü Yang had no choice but to hold his sword in front of his chest.

The next moment, a visible sharp sword energy emanated from his body, and all his fate, merits, and cultivation converged on his sword at this moment.

This was another source of Lü Yang's confidence.

‘【Desperate Strike】!’

The fourth profound mystery of the sword path avatar's innate divine ability!

This was the sword of mutual destruction, sacrificing life solely to unleash a single strike. It first killed the user, then the enemy. Essentially, it was a sacrificial method to the Sword Dao Fruit Position.

When a sword cultivator executed this strike, they offered all their life and cultivation to the Sword Dao Fruit Position in exchange for an unparalleled powerful strike. This was why sword cultivators of the Sword Pavilion always instilled fear. With this strike, even if they couldn't win, they could achieve mutual destruction.

Highlighting a shameless tactic!

However, for Lü Yang, the key was not the power of this strike, but its effect of sacrificing life, a suicide move deemed certain death!

Below the True Lord level, no one could stop it.

And above the True Lord level... this strike, in terms of background, was an offering to the Dao Master of the Sword Pavilion.

Who would dare to stop it?

Moreover, the timing of Lü Yang's execution of this strike was perfect. It was Guang Ming who first attempted to kill him, prompting him to fight desperately. No matter how one looked at it, it was reasonable.

‘Hundred Lifetimes...’

Lü Yang's mind moved slightly, about to unleash this 【Desperate Strike】.

However, at this moment.

"Zheng——!"

A crisp sword cry suddenly rang out between heaven and earth, accompanied by an urgent shout reaching Lü Yang's ears: "Stop! Don't be hasty to use it!"

Lü Yang paused upon hearing this, recognizing the voice.

The 【Desperate Strike】 that was about to be unleashed also slightly halted, suspended in place.

However, since this strike had already been condensed, unless he actively dispersed it, no one could stop his suicide, so he wasn't worried.

‘Is there still a turning point?’

The next moment, a figure broke through the air, directly intervening between Guang Ming and Lü Yang, his broad back firmly shielding him.

Upon seeing the person, Lü Yang was truly stunned.

". Master?"

It was none other than Daoist Dangmo!
