Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 140: Imperial Carriage and Dragon Chariot

Above the firmament, True Person Huanwu was fleeing in a sorry state.

The blood beads that scattered across most of Skull Mountain, resembling fiery meteors, were in fact fragments of his Dao Foundation, representing his lifelong cultivation.

However, at this moment, he couldnʼt afford to care about that.

If he didnʼt run now, he would die here!

In an instant, his surging blood and Qi transformed into a long rainbow piercing the sky, aiming to fly beyond Skull Mountain.

Yet, at that moment, another beam of white light swept across the sky.

The next second, True Person Huanwu found himself back in front of Lu Yang.

Lu Yang was about to strike again but suddenly halted his action.

He noticed that True Person Huanwu now had a vacant expression, his pupils dim, appearing as an empty shell.

“Left behind the physical body, but the soul escaped?”

Lu Yang frowned slightly.

Above his head, within the golden auspicious clouds, the light and shadow of his innate divine ability grew increasingly bright, seemingly about to fully manifest from the clouds.

However, Lu Yang ultimately exhaled a deep breath, restraining his divine ability and refraining from further pursuit.

Although he was confident in his ability to catch up, doing so would expose his innate divine ability, making it easy for onlookers to discern his secrets.

“Forget it.”

With this thought, Lu Yang ceased his pursuit and released the Abe Sword from his hand.

The Abe Sword gracefully spun in the air after being let go.

The next moment, a red light flashed.

A little girl, about eight or nine years old, wearing a red cotton jacket and sporting a high ponytail, emerged.

She looked at True Person Huanwu and couldnʼt help but pout.

After many years of inactivity, she had taken action again, yet failed to kill the opponent.

How could she save face with her small face?

Seeing Lu Yang deep in thought, she hurriedly said, fearing he would underestimate her, “If it werenʼt for the fact that I was slightly injured and havenʼt recovered, I would have definitely killed that True Person!”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang looked at the Abe Sword again.

“You can become stronger?”

“Of course!”

At this point, the little girl placed her hands on her hips and raised her head proudly, saying, “I specialize in breaking cultivatorsʼ Dao Foundations, and consuming Dao Foundations can also enhance my power.”

As she spoke, the little girl seemed to recall her glorious past, gesturing excitedly, “It doesnʼt take much; just feed me ten or so, even if theyʼre only at the early Foundation Establishment stage, I can recover thirty percent of my strength and manifest a divine ability. Then, I guarantee youʼll be invincible among peers!”

“Oh.”

Faced with the little girlʼs boasting, Lu Yang merely nodded indifferently.

Then, with a wave of his hand, he stored the little girl, who still wanted to speak, into his sleeve.

He wasnʼt interested in being invincible among peers.

After all, if he could dominate, why would he fight opponents of the same level?

Of course, he didnʼt disregard combat power.

This time, engaging in a fierce battle with True Person Huanwu and even using his innate divine ability was to test his own strength.

After all, he could choose not to act, but he couldnʼt be without power.

‘Moreover, my innate divine ability... is truly extraordinary!’

Lu Yang introspected, observing within his Foundation Establishment realm.

At the deepest part of the golden auspicious clouds formed by his Dao Foundation, there was a chariot made entirely of gold and jade.

Pulling this chariot were four illusory flood dragons, exhaling clouds and mist, continuously emitting dragon roars akin to wind and thunder.

Around the chariot stood twelve large banners, followed by golden carriages, elephant carriages, plowing carts, comfort carts, and four-direction viewing carts, among other accompanying vehicles.

At a glance, it was solemn and majestic.

This was Lu Yangʼs innate divine ability, named 【Imperial Carriage and Dragon Chariot】.

As for its effects, Lu Yang received feedback from the divine ability, summarized in one sentence:

“Practice cultivation and preach the Dao, manifesting the worldʼs representation, able to determine closeness, resolve doubts, distinguish differences, and clarify right and wrong!”

As the name implies, this innate divine ability comprises four divine wonders.

Although they cannot be used simultaneously, each possesses immense power.

Previously, Lu Yang had been using 【Determine Closeness】.

As the saying goes, closeness and distance, the close are near, the distant are far.

This divine wonderʼs function is to assess the closeness between oneself and others, altering their relative distance.

Whether it was sending away the Primordial Saint Sectʼs True Person Yu Shu, evading True Person Huanwuʼs deadly axe, or severely injuring him, those arbitrary movements were all due to the power of 【Determine Closeness】.

Although it lacked direct lethality, it enhanced Lu Yangʼs flexibility in combat.

Moreover, it was very convenient for escaping.

After all, the coverage of this divine ability was unimaginably vast.

As long as there was a causal entanglement with Lu Yang, he could use this divine ability to reach them, regardless of distance, at the cost of varying mana consumption.

Therefore, he was confident in catching up with True Person Huanwu just now.

Back then, the Fulong Arhat appeared precisely after sensing his breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, likely because his innate divine ability had similar mysteries.

As for the remaining three divine wonders, they were equally peculiar.

【Resolve Doubts】 governs causality.

When major events are undecided, this divine wonder can forcibly guide them toward the desired outcome.

This divine wonder is highly effective in influencing causality.

Although the more complex and heavier the causality, the more mana is required to forcibly guide the result, correspondingly, this divine ability can eliminate all variables, ensuring that a desired event occurs.

Of course, this inevitably entangles oneself with the corresponding causality.

Hence, there is 【Distinguish Differences】.

As the name suggests, this method distinguishes differences.

You are you, I am me; what you do has nothing to do with me.

It is specifically used to sever causality with others.

At that time, the otherʼs causality would not contaminate you.

For example, the causal debt carried by the 【Abe Sword】.

Lu Yang estimated that after breaking through to the late Foundation Establishment stage, he could use this divine ability to sever it.

Therefore, 【Distinguish Differences】 is often used in conjunction with 【Resolve Doubts】.

If oneʼs cultivation is sufficient and mana is strong, relying on this divine wonder can even achieve freedom from causality and calamity, leading to great freedom and ease!

As for the final one, 【Clarify Right and Wrong】, it is even more domineering.

Clarifying right and wrong is not about universally accepted rights and wrongs but about oneʼs own judgment.

What I say is right is right; the worldʼs matters of right and wrong can be decided by a single word!

However, although this divine wonder is domineering, its effect is significantly reduced against those of the same realm.

Its true power lies in being used against lower realms.

At its peak, it can even increase a Qi Refining cultivatorʼs chance of breaking through to Foundation Establishment by ten percent with just a single word!

“【Imperial Carriage and Dragon Chariot】”

Lu Yang rode the wind, his expression calm, pondering in his heart:

“Innate divine abilities are not formed casually.”

“Generally, they are based on the Dao Foundation, with the soul guiding the direction, deriving the most compatible innate ability.”

“Therefore, even with the same Dao Foundation, different cultivatorsʼ innate abilities will have subtle differences.”

“And mine...”

Just looking at these four divine wonders—escape, shifting blame, severing ties—none are direct combat methods.

To some extent, they indeed align with his personality.

“Moreover, my innate divine ability has four divine wonders.”

“Compared to me, that True Person Huanwu only has one divine wonder.”

“Is this the difference between Dao Foundations, or is it because I have a perfect Foundation Establishment?”

At this moment, the approach of three Qi presences suddenly awakened Lu Yang.

Looking back, he saw the three Foundation Establishment True Persons sent by the Primordial Saint Sect to assist him in eliminating the Divine Martial Sect, standing not far away with cautious expressions.

“Greetings, Fellow Daoist Yuan Tu.”

One of the True Persons praised, “Fellow Daoist has achieved perfect Foundation Establishment, possesses numerous spiritual treasures, and extraordinary divine abilities. It seems that the eradication of the Divine Martial Sect is now certain.”

“Not at all.”

Lu Yang returned the salute.

Among the three True Persons, a middle-aged man with a square face, flowing beard, and a noble appearance stepped forward.

“I am Yu Chong.”

The man first saluted, then smiled, “Yu Shu is a junior from my family. He previously offended the True Person. I have come specifically to apologize.”

At this point, he looked eagerly and said urgently, “This place is not suitable for detailed discussion.”

“Fellow Daoist Yuan Tu, why donʼt we go inside and talk?”

Fearing Lu Yang might refuse, he added via voice transmission, “...It concerns the ʼCity Head Soilʼ and your future Dao path!”

“.Oh?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang narrowed his eyes.
