Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 64: Auspicious Day of Shock, Seven Martial Slaughters of Immortals!

”This... this...”

Having lived for several decades and earned the illustrious title of ʼMartial King of Suppression,ʼ this was the first time Ji Xiongying felt an emotion bordering on absurdity.

He saw Lu Yang raise his hand, and a piece of yellow paper with ghostly scribbles would appear beside him, then ignite, followed by various phenomena completely unrelated to martial arts—sword qi slicing through the air, thunderbolts crashing down, golden light suddenly flashing—each piece of yellow paper brought him deadly danger!

Swish, swish—!

Sword qi slashed Ji Xiongyingʼs cheeks, lightning struck his body, making him feel numb all over, while his full-force punch was intercepted by a sudden golden light.

”Impossible!”

Ji Xiongying retreated again, but dared not engage with Lu Yang any further. He could only grit his teeth, looking at Lu Yang with fear, yet also a hidden desire.

In the next moment, a title surfaced in his mind.

Immortal!?

At this moment, Lu Yangʼs methods were just like those of immortals in storybooks, instantly igniting his desire for eternal life.

Thinking of this, Ji Xiongying widened the distance between them again, speaking excitedly, ”Wait, thereʼs actually no deep enmity between us, right? How about this: as long as you join our royal familyʼs Offering Hall and share that yellow paper technique with me, Iʼll grant you Myriad taels of gold and lands—you can choose whatever you like!”

”Whatever I like?”

Lu Yang shook his head and chuckled. Do I need to choose?

The entire Great Zhou is a secret realm of the Primordial Saint Sect; it originally belongs to me! And you dare to promise me whatʼs already mine?

”Alright then, Iʼm quite interested in the martial arts methods of Heaven and Man...”

”This is my ʼDominion of the Worldʼ!”

Without another word, Ji Xiongying directly took out a book and threw it to Lu Yang: ”It contains only half a volume. If you give me the technique, the remaining half will also be yours!”

Lu Yang: ”...”

Ji Xiongyingʼs ambition was almost written on his face, and Lu Yang naturally saw through it. However, he didnʼt mind, and certainly wouldnʼt pass on cultivation methods to him.

After all, it was of no benefit to his cultivation of the Saintly Thief, and it also violated sect rules.

”What a pity.”

Lu Yang shook his head, put away the ʼDominion of the World,ʼ glanced indifferently at Ji Xiongying, and then his figure suddenly dissipated, intending to turn and leave directly.

”Trying to leave!?”

Seeing Lu Yangʼs flesh and blood body disintegrate into a wisp of ethereal white gas, Ji Xiongying roared in anger, while the desire on his face deepened.

Immortal technique! It must be an immortal technique!

I must obtain it!

”Dominion over the world!”

Ji Xiongying exhaled and spoke, raising his hand and clenching his five fingers. A surge of blood and qi poured into it, instantly turning his entire palm blood-red.

In an instant, Lu Yang seemed to see a vast landscape slowly unfolding before him—scholars rising at the crow of a rooster, farmers resting at sunset, warriors roaming the rivers and lakes, merchants trading in the bustling world—all vividly depicting the national destiny of Great Zhou, as well as the worldʼs grand momentum.

Dominion over the world, and also a fist dominating the world!

Ji Xiongyingʼs fist momentum had no physical form, purely a mental oppression, the spiritual accumulation of this martial arts master, already transcending martial arts.

However—

”You want to compare willpower with me? I practice cultivation and possess spiritual consciousness!”

Ji Xiongyingʼs fist momentum might be invincible against crude martial artists who only knew fists and kicks, but using it against him was futile.

Boom!

With a thought, Lu Yang shattered Ji Xiongyingʼs fist momentum instantly.

The so-called national destiny, the vast landscape, were all swept away by his spiritual consciousness.

”You can actually withstand my punch?” Ji Xiongying gritted his teeth: ”Again!”

However, what responded to him was a cold laugh.

”Stubborn and ignorant.”

As the words fell, dozens of talismans suddenly appeared out of thin air.

With the Myriad Spirits Banner in hand, he had brought plenty of talismans on this trip and didnʼt care about consumption at all.

The talismans shattered in a single breath, transforming into a torrent of sword qi that fell upon Ji Xiongying, causing him to let out a miserable scream on the spot.

In an instant, blood dyed the sky, though his physique, comparable to the peak of Qi Refining, was indeed ferocious—the sword qi talismans could slice his flesh, but could not sever his bones.

When the sword qi dissipated, Ji Xiongying had already turned into a blood-soaked figure.

His entire body had no intact flesh, as if he had just been subjected to dismemberment by a thousand cuts.

He dared not remain at the scene and vanished in the blink of an eye.

”You fled quite decisively.”

Lu Yang frowned slightly.

This incarnation of his cultivated purely in martial arts and relied entirely on talismans to defeat enemies.

Although he could fly, his speed was actually still slower than Ji Xiongyingʼs.

Lu Yang looked slightly grim.

The vitality of a Martial Arts Master exceeded his expectations.

Though Ji Xiongying had appeared pitiful and miserable, as long as he escaped with his life and rested for a few days, he could recover more than half.

A physique comparable to peak Qi Refining, yet lacking matching divine bodily abilities.

”He really is a superb material for corpse refinement.”

Thinking of this, Lu Yang felt a bit remorseful.

Truly, one is influenced by those they are close to.

Even someone as kind-hearted as him had grown ruthless after spending time in the Saint Sect.

”...Iʼm not that kind of person.” Lu Yang shook his head.

Besides, refining corpses was inefficient.

Using the Myriad Spirits Banner to refine them instantly was undoubtedly much more effective.

That being said, Lu Yang had no intention of devoting himself to this path.

After all, once this lifetime ended, he would definitely choose cultivation, and the Myriad Spirits Banner couldnʼt be taken with him.

”I’ll think about it next life!”

With that thought, Lu Yang directly dispersed his body, then silently reformed in an alley of the capital city, merging seamlessly into the crowd.

”As expected, he lost. That’s only natural.”

Tianjing City, Wei Family residence.

The Yun Family Patriarch withdrew his gaze calmly.

Ji Xiongyingʼs defeat was within his expectations.

If anything, Ji Xiongying winning would have been the surprise.

After all, this time, in stirring the threads of karma, the purpose of Ji Xiongying’s fight with Lu Yang wasn’t to win, but to make Ji Xiongying discover Lu Yang’s existence.

Then to gradually spread the news, ultimately influencing other Martial Masters, and eventually uniting all of them to deal with Lu Yang!

As long as they destroyed his incarnation, there would be no fear of his true body not appearing!

For this, he had already arranged an ”opportunity”—or rather, a bait.

All that remained was for the fish to bite the hook.

Now was the perfect chance.

With this in mind, he immediately began stirring karma again.

Almost simultaneously—

Having just escaped with his life, Ji Xiongying dared not return to the royal palace, fleeing instead to the outskirts of the capital, hiding within a mountain forest.

He originally just wanted to avoid Lu Yang.

Yet while hiding, he ”accidentally” discovered a sealed stone chamber within a hidden cave.

Inside, a skeleton sat upright.

”This is...”

Ji Xiongying stepped before the skeleton and saw it holding a dust-covered book in its hands.

He immediately reached out, took it, and casually flipped it open.

”...Hm!?”

At a glance, Ji Xiongying’s eyes widened.

His face was soon filled with disbelief and ecstasy.

”Truly heaven helps me!”

The author of the book was unnamed, and its contents were merely a short record:

”There are immortals in this world, who do not age or die. Kill them and eat their flesh to gain eternal life... But immortal techniques are supreme, hard to overcome. I have studied bitterly for decades, and before dying, finally comprehended a method to slay immortals. On the Auspicious Day of Shock, seven great masters must wield seven divine weapons and form a formation together—only then is there hope of victory.”

Auspicious Day of Shock, Seven Martial Slaughters of Immortals!

Besides the background and details, the book also recorded the forging methods for the ”Seven Divine Weapons.”

Ji Xiongying read in rapture, his ambition reignited.

”Hahahaha! I truly possess great fortune and great destiny!”

”If I kill that immortal, I shall surely live forever!”

As he laughed heartily, Ji Xiongyingʼs consciousness grew increasingly obsessed.

Karma clouded his true heart.

All thoughts other than ”slay the immortal and gain eternal life” were erased.
