Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 244: Ye Guyue! Die!

“Ah Bi Sword has suffered considerable damage.”

After putting away the Ah Bi Sword into his sleeve, Lu Yangʼs eyes revealed a trace of amazement. ”So this is the Sword Pavilion’s second-grade true technique? 【Nine Progeny Mother Heavenly Demon Immortal-Slaying Sword Art】.”

How he wished he could have it!

It was no wonder Lu Yang was so covetous.

After all, if they truly went head-to-head, the Ah Bi Sword actually could not compete with the 【Nine Progeny Mother Heavenly Demon Immortal-Slaying Sword】. It was not because the quality of the Ah Bi Sword was inferior.

It was because Ye Guyue was a sword cultivator.

She could empower her sword with both innate and bloodline divine abilities, causing its power to soar dramatically. Lu Yang, on the other hand, had to rely solely on the sword’s own mystical properties.

Fortunately, before this duel, Lu Yang had used the 【Ah Bi Sword】 to kill several sword cultivators in succession, stacking the special attack bonus of 【Butcher of Men】 to an extremely high level, which offset Ye Guyue’s advantage. Combined with the fact that he had been preparing for this moment for a long time, he barely managed to seize a slight upper hand.

And even this outcome was the result of multiple influencing factors.

After all, the Ah Bi Sword relied on stored energy and had only one strike’s worth of power. If Ye Guyue had maintained clarity of mind, she could have chosen to engage in a drawn-out battle, dodging and circling him.

However, she chose to meet him head-on.

ʼIn the end, her fortune and merit had been drained by Chong Guang, and calamity energy now entangled her!ʼ

Even though she managed to maintain a clear mind using the Sword Pavilion’s secret techniques, she still could not fully escape the influence, making slight misjudgments at critical moments.

If not for this, Lu Yang would have, at best, fought her to a draw. Killing her, let alone capturing her alive, would have been out of the question.

However, in the battles between cultivators, the only thing that mattered was the result.

And the result was—he had won!

“.”

In the next second, brilliant light flared across Ye Guyue’s body, enveloping her completely. She was about to tear through the void and forcefully escape the fragment of the blessed land.

Clearly, Ye Guyue had already realized the situation.

She had lost, and if she did not flee now, she would die! Even if forcefully escaping the blessed land fragment would leave her seriously injured, she no longer cared.

But how could Lu Yang possibly let her escape?

“【Mountain Embrace】!”

In the next instant, his divine ability activated. A towering black mountain suppressed the spiritual energy, calming the void, and extinguished the brilliant light on Ye Guyue’s body, pulling her back down.

Almost simultaneously, Lu Yang cast another spell.

“【Proper Law of Commanding Mountains and Moving Peaks】!”

He formed seals, chanted incantations, and pointed with his finger—three steps completed in one breath.

Although Ye Guyue reacted quickly, closing her seven apertures in the first instant to block out Lu Yang’s chanting and sealing actions, she still could not avoid being struck by his finger.

Immediately after, streams of muddy water erupted from her graceful body, turning her into an immobile mud statue in an instant.

The mud statue fell to the ground, taking root.

However, Lu Yang soon frowned and stopped his actions. With a casual flick, he shattered the mud statue, only to find it completely empty inside.

“Heh, Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell?”

Lu Yang opened his third eye on his forehead. The Jiutian Instrument activated, and the light of Bing Fire illuminated the six directions, instantly revealing a graceful figure stealthily fleeing.

“Where do you think you’re going, Fairy?”

Lu Yang let out a loud laugh and immediately changed the seal of 【Mountain Embrace】. The towering mountain shadow materialized from the void and crashed down on Ye Guyue.

“Boom!”

In the next moment, Ye Guyue staggered.

She had been fleeing on her Sword Pill, but under the suppression of 【Mountain Embrace】, the previously responsive Sword Pill now reacted as if it had sunk into the sea—completely unresponsive.

Following that, the 【Proper Law of Commanding Mountains and Moving Peaks】 struck again.

Seeing this, Ye Guyue had no choice but to form seals once more, releasing another Heavenly Demon as a substitute, before fleeing a thousand miles away, clearly planning to drag things out.

ʼHold on!ʼ

ʼThis blessed land… is about to completely shatter!ʼ

At this moment, Ye Guyue’s sword heart was clear. Even though calamity energy clung to her, she still grasped the last thread of hope. Once the blessed land shattered naturally, she would have a chance to survive!

With this in mind, Ye Guyue continued to flee with all her might.

And the disaster-avoiding ability of the 【Nine Progeny Mother Heavenly Demon Immortal-Slaying Sword】 was indeed remarkable, allowing her to narrowly evade Lu Yang’s suppression seven times, miraculously enduring until now.

“Crack!”

Finally, a clear cracking sound echoed through the heavens and the earth.

The fragment of the blessed land, even though it had been held together by Chong Guang’s power, could no longer bear the strain after so many collisions and finally shattered apart!

ʼThis is it!ʼ

Ye Guyue took a deep breath, mustered all her remaining power, and in the instant the fissure appeared in the blessed land, she rode a beam of escape light and vanished into the crack.

In the next moment, her vision suddenly expanded!

What entered her sight was the ruins of the 【Kingdom of Qing】 outside the blessed land. Several familiar cultivators were conversing nearby, some from the Dao Court, and some from the Pure Land.

The sky remained dim, clearly showing that the battle between True Lords had not yet ended.

But regardless—

ʼIʼm finally out!ʼ

Even with Ye Guyue’s temperament, narrowly escaping death filled her with a hint of wild joy. She thought to herself, ʼDemon, I will never let this go!ʼ

But the most urgent matter now was to find someone to protect her!

With this thought, Ye Guyue immediately turned her gaze toward the Dao Court and Pure Land, about to call out for help, when suddenly she felt a mighty wave sweeping in from behind!

Turning her head—

The latest novel was first released at 69shu.com!

She saw the void cracking open, revealing the scene inside the blessed land fragment. On a towering mountain, Lu Yang sat cross-legged, his robes fluttering in the wind.

Above his head, one after another, divine lights appeared at this moment—【Myriad Spirits Banner】, 【Ah Bi Sword】, 【Formless Sword】, 【Jiutian Instrument】, 【Hundred-Forging Danger-Subduing Mystic Cloak】, 【Jingping Clear Atmosphere Pagoda】, 【Purple Star Official’s Supreme Golden Seal】, 【Imperial Mansion’s Golden Script of Doushuai】—eight supreme spiritual treasures resounded in unison!

In addition, there was a massive pile of treasures looted from Chong Ming.

These were all Chong Guang True Person’s collection. Though none were supreme spiritual treasures, they were at least lower or middle-grade treasures, their quality far surpassing the mundane.

At this moment, all these treasures had gathered together.

And Lu Yang was forming seals with both hands, performing a Dao technique he had never used before.

“【Myriad Treasures River】!”

Not far away, Duo Bao Tongzi, the rightful heir of the 【Myriad Treasures River】, watched in stunned disbelief.

This technique was originally designed to win through sheer quantity, combining hundreds of magical treasures to unleash the power of a supreme spiritual treasure. Yet, in Lu Yang’s hands, it had taken on an entirely different form.

All the components of his 【Myriad Treasures River】 were at least spiritual treasures!

At this moment, all the cultivators outside the blessed land felt darkness fall before their eyes, their Dharma bodies swaying as if they had become lone boats adrift in a raging storm!

What they saw before them was a vast, majestic river!

This river was massive and awe-inspiring, flowing out from the blessed land fragment with a thunderous roar, sweeping toward Ye Guyue.

Seeing this scene, everyone was simply incredulous. They felt that this overwhelming river, vast and unrestrained, was like an ocean surging forth. Just approaching it brought an indescribable suction force, like a sea whirlpool that threatened to swallow them and drag them to the bottom.

Ye Guyue’s face instantly turned pale. “Help—”

“Run!”

Over at the Dao Court and Pure Land, several Foundation Establishment True Persons turned pale with shock. Without even glancing at Ye Guyue, they took off in escape light without a second thought.

In the next instant, the 【Myriad Treasures River】 came crashing down.

“Boom!”

With a deafening roar, Ye Guyue was swept up by the river formed of spiritual treasure light before everyone’s eyes, her body wrapped and dragged back into the blessed land.

Was this the demon of the Primordial Saint Sect capturing the Sword Pavilion fairy?

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, still stunned, when a tender rebuke rang out from within the blessed land fragment beneath the cover of the 【Myriad Treasures River】:

“Demon, how dare you!?”

Immediately after, Lu Yang’s voice followed with hearty laughter. “Naïve. What wouldn’t I dare? Today, I am determined to seize your second-grade true technique!”

“No, wait! Let me go!”

“Aren’t you afraid of the Sword Pavilion’s retaliation—”

“What technique do you want? I can tell you!”

Before Ye Guyue could finish, a cry of pain rang out, and Lu Yang’s voice followed once more: “Tell me? What if you lie to me?”

“Uncle Master Chong Guang taught me that one must rely on oneself!”

“I trust only myself!”

Only the True Persons of the Saint Sect, after a brief moment of surprise, quickly regained their composure.

“Judging by the voice, it seems to be Yuan Tu?”

“Oh, then that’s no surprise.”
