Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 208: This Is No Longer an Ordinary Rogue Cultivator!

”I am not! I did not!”

At this moment, Duobao Child felt extremely wronged and hurriedly turned to look at Old Man Dragon Angler beside him. ”Fellow Daoist Dragon Angler, you know me. You can testify for me!”

”This…”

Old Man Dragon Angler opened his mouth upon hearing this, then lowered his voice and said, ”Fellow Daoist Five Elements, I think no matter what, Duobao Child wouldn’t betray you at this moment.”

As soon as these words came out, the originally furious True Person of Five Elements also snapped back to his senses.

Not to mention that Duobao Child had once been robbed by a True Person of the Primordial Saint Sect in the past, bearing a deep blood feud that could not be faked, making it highly unlikely he would betray them.

Even if he truly had betrayed them, this was not the time to expose it and shake the army’s morale.

”…It was my slip of the tongue.”

True Person of Five Elements let out a long breath and quickly regained his composure. ”This time it must be the Primordial Saint Sectʼs cunning scheme, deliberately setting a trap to lure us in.”

”I miscalculated for a moment, which led all of you into danger.”

”But everyone, rest assured, since this is my fault, I will naturally make amends. Later, when we break out, I will stay behind to cover you all, and I will definitely bring you back safely!”

With just a few words, True Person of Five Elements quickly stabilized the crowd.

After that, his gaze swept around and immediately grasped the key point. ”The True Person of the Demon Sect who is now surrounded by us should be the one in charge of this operation.”

”He used himself as bait to lure us into the trap.”

”But by doing so, he has also fallen into our encirclement.”

”At this point, the only option is to strike him first, using overwhelming force to pressure the other True Persons of the Demon Sect to come to his rescue, thereby creating a chance for us to break out!”

From this perspective, True Person of Five Elements still showed the insight of a seasoned veteran.

In fact, things were just as he had anticipated.

Although Lu Yang was indeed using himself as bait this time, True Person Yinshan would never sacrifice him in exchange for victory.

If Lu Yang truly faced a life-and-death crisis, Yinshan would certainly abandon the encirclement and rescue Lu Yang first.

However, True Person of Five Elements had only misjudged one thing.

—Lu Yangʼs strength.

”Boom!”

In an instant, the mana collision of more than ten Foundation Establishment True Persons, even in the high sky, caused the ground below to crack as if an earth dragon was turning over.

Almost all the Foundation Establishment True Persons felt their vision go dark.

Their released divine senses were completely shattered by the impact, making it seem as if time had come to a standstill.

They could hear nothing, see nothing, and only after a long while did their senses gradually return.

One by one, they focused their eyes on the scene in the field.

What surprised them, however, was that both sides were completely unscathed.

On the side of True Person of Five Elements, a large umbrella floated in mid-air.

Five-colored light swirled on the umbrellaʼs surface, with the five elements rotating, firmly protecting the people beneath it.

”What a superb spiritual treasure!”

Seeing this, even True Person Yinshan showed a trace of surprise. ”Although itʼs a small sect, it’s not entirely without merit.”

However, on the other side, True Person of Five Elements secretly cried out in his heart.

”That was close…”

This 【Mixed Yuan Five Elements Umbrella】 was the supreme treasure passed down through generations in the Five Elements Sect.

Not only was it a superb spiritual treasure, but it also contained two mysterious abilities.

Standing under the umbrella, it was said to overcome all five elements, making all methods ineffective.

Yet after just one strike, cracks had already appeared on the umbrella.

The originally continuous five-element radiance had developed significant flaws.

If they were struck two or three more times, the treasure would shatter, and they would die with it!

At this thought, True Person of Five Elements looked toward Lu Yang again, full of expectation.

After taking their combined full-power strike, Lu Yang should have been seriously injured by now, right?

And then he saw a scene that made his eyes nearly burst.

As the smoke and dust cleared, Lu Yang stood calmly in his black robe, smiling as he said, ”Is that all you’ve got? Did you skip breakfast before coming out?”

”Impossible!”

True Person of Five Elementsʼ pupils shrank on the spot, and the others also widened their eyes in disbelief.

They knew that apart from True Person of Five Elements defending against other attacks, the remaining six of them had already gone all out without holding back in the slightest.

Not to mention that among them were Old Man Dragon Angler and Duobao Child, both mid-Foundation Establishment cultivators.

How could anyone possibly withstand such a combined strike?

Even if the opponent was also at mid-Foundation Establishment, their magical body should have been damaged at the very least.

But looking at Lu Yang, he appeared completely unscathed!

On the other side, Lu Yang casually brushed the dust off his black robe.

【Hundredfold Calamity-Resisting Black Robe】!

This was the spiritual treasure that Ye Xingfeng had given him before dying overseas.

Its mystical ability 【Hundredfold Resistance】 could block any attack a hundred times!

This was the benefit of being obscured by the heavenly secrets.

Because the strengths and weaknesses of this 【Hundredfold Calamity-Resisting Black Robe】 were very clear.

Its strength was that no matter how powerful the attack, it could block it a hundred times.

Its weakness was that even the weakest attack could consume one of those defenses.

In other words, the best way to break this treasure was not a single full-power strike but thousands of small attacks in a short period.

However, with the heavenly secrets obscured, even Foundation Establishment True Persons could not calculate the causality.

Naturally, no one could figure out the flaw of the 【Hundredfold Calamity-Resisting Black Robe】.

At most, they could suspect something was wrong and would need time to slowly probe and find the flaw.

But how could Lu Yang possibly give them that chance?

In the next second, Lu Yang spoke in a deep voice, ”Rogue cultivator Dragon Angler, colluding with Jiangdong Dao Court to harm a True Person of the Primordial Saint Sect.”

”This is no longer an ordinary rogue cultivator, but a lawless demon! Against such a demon, my Saint Sect must strike with full force!”

Upon hearing this, Old Man Dragon Angler nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Heavens! A True Person of the Saint Sect called me a demon!?

And what does this have to do with me?

The one chasing you was Duobao Child!

For a moment, everyone couldn’t help but glance at Duobao Child again.

Both were traitors, so why did Lu Yang name Dragon Angler and not him?

Duobao Childʼs face immediately turned beet red. ”This is the Demon Sectʼs scheme to sow discord!”

”I am not a traitor!”

Everyone quickly averted their eyes.

That’s right, they all understood the reasoning.

But who knew if this was a counter-scheme?

Their lives were on the line—what if it was true? Wouldn’t they all be dragged to their deaths?

At this thought, even Old Man Dragon Angler, who was closest to Duobao Child, silently distanced himself, not daring to let him get too close.

Seeing this, True Person of Five Elements couldn’t help but look at Lu Yang and sigh, ”The Demon Sect… truly lives up to its name!”

Such an open and blatant scheme!

Even when seen through, understood, and exposed, no one could escape its effects.

Even he himself could not suppress the doubt in his heart at this moment.

On the other side, Duobao Child was utterly furious.

For a moment, he seemed to recall the humiliation of being robbed midway by a True Person of the Primordial Saint Sect in his youth, stripped of all his clothes.

In an instant, he lost all reason.

”Beast!”

With a furious roar, Duobao Child could no longer hold back and charged out from the crowd.

The 【Myriad Treasures River】 surged, rushing toward Lu Yang.

Almost at the same time, True Person of Five Elementsʼ expression changed drastically. ”Careful! Come back!”

In fact, before he even shouted, Duobao Child had already regained his senses.

He felt a chill in his heart as his eyes met Lu Yangʼs smiling gaze.

ʼDivine ability, he used a divine ability to lure me just now!?ʼ

【Resolution of Suspicion】!

For those standing at the edge of a cliff, sometimes all it took was a gentle push to make them fall into the abyss, never to return.

At this moment, everyone clearly sensed the killing intent permeating the heavens and earth.

And Duobao Child felt it most acutely.

ʼHe wants to kill me!?ʼ
