Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

When Lü Yang regained his senses, Suo Huan had already been pierced by the 【Calamity Wave】, and the mystical power of the 【Yuan Tu】 on the sword was rapidly activating.

Those killed by this sword would have all their karmic ties severed!

Originally, Suo Huan was entangled in multiple karmic connections, with various True Persons aiding him in seeking the golden nature, expecting to divide the benefits afterward.

The blessed land would return to the Pure Land.

The golden nature would return to the Dao Court.

The fruit position would return to the Saint Sect.

Moreover, the current Clear Snow True Person was using this karmic tie to transfer a portion of the backlash from the 【Netherworld】 onto Suo Huan.

However, now that Suo Huan was dead, under the mystical power of the 【Yuan Tu】, the karmic ties were shattered, and Suo Huan’s remaining blessed land and golden nature became ownerless, making it impossible for Clear Snow True Person to transfer the backlash, forcing her to endure it herself, resulting in losing the benefits and gaining additional costs!

This was 【Ang Xiao】’s trump card.

Why did he help Lü Yang refine the 【Calamity Wave】? Besides leveraging Lü Yang’s predicament to create a ritual and attract the attention of the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】.

More importantly, it was for the mystical power of the 【Yuan Tu】!

He used Suo Huan’s hand to refine this spiritual sword, intending to use this karmic-severing mystical power at the critical moment to set up this situation!

”Do you want to continue fighting me, or go seize the blessed land and golden nature?”

【Ang Xiao】 laughed loudly, but before he finished speaking, most of the True Persons had already withdrawn and reached for the 【Spiritual Ruins Blessed Land】 and Suo Huan’s golden nature.

The Pure Land and Dao Court immediately chose to abandon targeting Ang Xiao, as the 【Spiritual Ruins Blessed Land】 and Suo Huan’s golden nature were originally designated for them, and if taken by others, they would suffer a total loss. As for suppressing 【Ang Xiao】, that was a long-term interest.

Long-term interests meant they could be postponed.

But the 【Spiritual Ruins Blessed Land】 and Suo Huan’s golden nature were short-term interests, and once missed, they would be gone, so how could they be easily abandoned?

Moreover, wasn’t 【Ang Xiao】 already injured?

That should be enough; it’s not like they could kill 【Ang Xiao】, so why offend him to death? Comparatively, it’s more practical to gain more benefits.

”Indeed... I still have to rely on myself!”

Above the sky, Clear Snow True Person sneered coldly upon seeing this but showed no intention of stopping, instead attacking 【Ang Xiao】 even more frantically!

Seeing this, 【Ang Xiao】’s expression changed: ”Shrew! Madwoman!”

He never expected that after seeing the other True Persons withdraw, Clear Snow True Person, knowing her realm was lower than his, would still entangle with him!

It should be noted that the reason Clear Snow True Person could trap him and severely injure him this time was partly because he was still enduring the backlash from the 【Netherworld】, and partly because various True Persons joined forces. But now, only this madwoman remained; how could she fight him?

Didn’t she understand the cost-benefit analysis?

Didn’t she see that even other Saint Sect True Persons had withdrawn?

However, since Clear Snow True Person acted this way, 【Ang Xiao】 had no choice but to also frantically channel his power and continue to stalemate with her.

But after all, 【Ang Xiao】’s cultivation was higher.

Therefore, in the tug-of-war between the two, he eventually gained the upper hand, and the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】 continued to fall step by step, flying toward the gate of the 【Netherworld】.

However, he also paid a price.

Below, the Dao Sin of Chong Guang, refined into a clone by 【Ang Xiao】, had already begun to burn, and even the fruit position treasure 【Life Exchange Talisman Book】 was fully sacrificed by him, meaning that if he didn’t obtain the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】 after this battle, there would be no second chance.

Because over the years, only Chong Guang had confirmed the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】.

Without his Dao Sin as a medium, the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】 would no longer cast its gaze, and trying to pull it into the Netherworld again would be several times more difficult.

At least until the arrival of the millennium great tribulation, it would be impossible.

’Only victory is allowed, no defeat!’

【Ang Xiao】’s gaze was cold; he had already placed all his chips on the table, and although Clear Snow True Person was still obstructing, it was to no avail.

Meanwhile.

’Beast...’

Lü Yang held the 【Calamity Wave】 with an ugly expression, and what made him more aggrieved was that even this curse he only dared to mutter in his heart, not aloud.

’The 【Calamity Wave】 has a problem; after all, it’s related to a True Person, so how could there be no hidden tricks? There might even be more than one. Unless I use the 【Book of a Hundred Lifetimes】 to cleanse it, I don’t dare to use it again. Who knows if it will kill me with one strike?’

This was even unrelated to the sword spirit’s will of the 【Calamity Wave】 itself.

【Ang Xiao】’s hidden tricks had completely exceeded the limits of this semi-true treasure, and even if the sword spirit was unwilling, it couldn’t resist his manipulation.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang couldn’t help but look up.

At this moment, Suo Huan was already dead, his soul scattered, and the blessed land and golden nature were being divided and snatched by various True Persons, so no one paid attention to this small figure.

Yes, a small figure.

That was Suo Huan’s last words before his death, and that sigh still echoed in Lü Yang’s ears: ”We small figures can only go with the flow.”

”If we choose correctly, we might rise with the tide.”

”If we choose wrongly, we’ll be buried at the bottom of the sea.”

”Fellow Daoist, take my advice and give up. You can’t fight those big figures in the sky. It’s good enough to escape death this time and live a peaceful life.”

”Foundation Establishment completion, five lifetimes of lifespan, over a thousand years of time isn’t bad.”

”Don’t make the same mistake as me...”

When he left this last sentence, Suo Huan’s tone was very calm.

Was he relieved? Lü Yang didn’t think so; he felt it was numbness, despair, the bitter sea was hard to cross, and he thought seeking the golden nature was just aiming too high.

However, after a moment of silence, Lü Yang laughed.

The bitter sea was hard to cross? Heaven’s will was hard to defy?

’Suo Huan, fellow Daoist, in the next life, I’ll help you cross!’

The next second, Lü Yang looked at the still-fighting 【Ang Xiao】 and Clear Snow True Person, turned his sword horizontally, and placed it on his neck.

”Hmm!?”

Almost simultaneously, 【Ang Xiao】 sensed something and suddenly turned to look at Lü Yang.

His ritual to attract the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】 was based on ”helping Lü Yang reverse a certain death situation,” with many karmic ties on Lü Yang.

However—

’What if I die?’

At this moment, Lü Yang’s mind was clear. If he died, it would mean the ”reversal failed,” the ritual would collapse, and the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】 would naturally hide again!

This was undoubtedly something 【Ang Xiao】 didn’t want to see. He had already paid so much; how could he fail at the last moment?

Therefore, soon, a voice floated over:

”Young friend, what do you want?”

【Ang Xiao】’s tone remained calm, thinking Lü Yang had just seen the situation clearly and was raising his price, so he straightforwardly got to the point.

”I want Suo Huan’s golden nature, the amount doesn’t matter.”

Lü Yang was equally calm, replying indifferently.

”Okay!”

【Ang Xiao】 didn’t bargain, nodded directly, and while suppressing Clear Snow True Person, he diverted his attention to snatch a trace of golden nature.

Because he wanted very little, the True Persons gave him this face, and after doing all this, 【Ang Xiao】 no longer paid attention to Lü Yang, directly withdrawing his gaze. In his view, Lü Yang couldn’t possibly commit suicide; he was just taking advantage of the situation, and since he was satisfied, Lü Yang would naturally be sensible.

He even admired Lü Yang’s opportunistic behavior.

’He has means, cunning, and courage—a talent, useful in the future.’

【Ang Xiao】 thought, pondering how to use Lü Yang as a pawn in the future, after all, strictly speaking, this time he saved Lü Yang’s life.

What was a trace of golden nature? It could be made up later.

The life-saving karma, he would make Lü Yang repay it for a lifetime!

However, the next second.

”Poof!”

Just as he withdrew his gaze, 【Ang Xiao】’s expression stiffened, and the calm expression he had maintained finally showed a rare look of shock and anger.

Turning back, he saw Lü Yang grinning coldly at him.

Suo Huan’s trace of golden nature had long been collected by him, and the 【Calamity Wave】 directly cut his neck, severing the karmic ties on him!

”Boom!”

Almost simultaneously, the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】, which had been falling, immediately lost its light, re-hidden, and directly escaped 【Ang Xiao】’s grasp!

”Courting death!!!”

For the first time, 【Ang Xiao】’s voice carried intense anger, exploding in the world, with terrifying pressure that even made True Persons tremble.

However, Lü Yang was not afraid at all. He raised his head proudly and gave the sky a middle finger.

Want the 【Overturning Lamp Fire】?

Want the 【Long Flowing Water】?

Want to become the Dao Lord?

”Eat shit!”

This time, Lü Yang didn’t hide it at all, nor did he mutter in his heart, but directly cursed aloud, and then, with a loud bang, he resolutely self-destructed!

”Book of a Hundred Lifetimes!”
