Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 331: Did I Forget Something?

“【Heaven-Slaying, World-Annihilating】!”

Just four simple words, yet their implication sent chills down oneʼs spine. Instantly, the Mysterious Immortal Minghua in Daoist Dangmo’s hand began to tremble violently.

“Impossible, Supreme One—”

Minghua Immortal still tried to convince himself. After all, the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】 still had a Supreme. He had witnessed the Supremeʼs might firsthand; it was simply unstoppable.

“No—!”

The next moment, a furious and grief-stricken roar echoed from the heavens.

The roar came from the phantom of the Celestial Court above the sky. In the center of the numerous pavilions and towers, atop the Lingxiao Hall, stood a towering figure whose face was indistinct.

The Supreme of the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】.

Strictly speaking, in the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】, this Supremeʼs strength was formidable. After all, it was his domain. In one-on-one combat, he feared no True Sovereign.

However, the problem was that no one fought him one-on-one. True Sovereigns attacked from all directions—east, west, south, and north. Several other True Sovereigns watched from the shadows. It was a classic case of the few against the many, like Mount Tai crushing an egg. The Supreme of the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】 saw no hope of turning the tide!

He couldnʼt even comprehend.

Why, upon discovering that this world had thirty fruit positions and strength far surpassing the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】, did he not flee immediately?

Was he muddle-headed?

Even more absurd, not only did he not flee, but he also attempted to retaliate, sending Minghua Immortal and others, thereby directly exposing the location of his realm.

As a result, just as Minghua Immortal and others arrived, the True Sovereigns, who had long been prepared, followed their path and attacked. The 【Mystic Spirit Realm】, originally far from this world, was forcibly dragged over by the combined efforts of the True Sovereigns!

“A calamity indeed.”

Seeing this, Daoist Dangmo sighed again: “So thatʼs why they ignored my actions.”

He had gone to the mass grave with the intention of stopping all this.

With his sword intent, he could sever the connection between the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】 and this world. Yet, he didnʼt know that the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】 had long been a dish prepared by the True Sovereigns.

As a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, how could he defy the will of the True Sovereigns?

In the end, he achieved nothing and even became a tool used by the True Sovereigns to maintain stability and prevent Minghua Immortal and others from causing widespread destruction.

“...Forget it.”

Daoist Dangmo took a deep breath, quickly dispelling the many distracting thoughts in his mind: “At least I saved a few people; itʼs not a complete loss.”

With that, he took out a storage pouch.

He opened the pouch.

Standing beside Daoist Dangmo, Lu Yang sneaked a glance. Instantly, his pupils contracted. Inside the pouch, he saw a shocking scene.

—Heads.

Countless heads, densely packed. Though separated from their bodies, they were not dead. They spoke vividly, conversing with each other!

Such a bizarre sight immediately captured Lu Yangʼs full attention.

It wasnʼt until the heads of Minghua Immortal and the three Earth Immortals also fell in and were placed on a rack that he snapped back to reality.

Looking up, he met Daoist Dangmoʼs eyes.

His eyes were full of calm, without a trace of malice.

“Did I startle you?”

Daoist Dangmo gave a bitter smile: “These are all people I have slain. I didnʼt kill them, but I couldnʼt let them roam free, so I kept them with me.”

“After all... better a miserable life than a good death.”

‘Hiss!’

Somethingʼs not right! This Daoist Dangmo is extremely suspicious! Though he appears to be a good person, something feels off!

Yet, he couldnʼt pinpoint what was wrong!

Despite this, Lu Yang maintained a calm expression, even showing admiration: “Senior, your compassion is admirable. The Sword Pavilion truly deserves its reputation as the righteous pathʼs leader.”

“Overpraised.”

Daoist Dangmo shook his head and looked up at the sky again.

At the same time, the vast and boundless Celestial Court phantom in the sky became increasingly clear, even gaining a sense of reality.

Below the Celestial Court, one could vaguely see small realms, resembling bubbles. At this moment, they disconnected from the Celestial Court one by one, disappearing without a trace. Finally, the Celestial Court fully solidified, truly appearing in this world!

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a loud noise erupted within the vast Celestial Court, followed by its gradual collapse, eventually splitting into four pieces!

Each piece had a Celestial Gate standing.

The four Celestial Gates, each dragging a quarter of the Celestial Court fragment, fell into the regions of Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Jiangxi, and Jiangdong!

“The 【Mystic Spirit Realm】... is finished!”

Seeing this, Daoist Dangmo couldnʼt help but close his eyes: “With the True Sovereignsʼ intervention, that realm likely has no living beings left.”

“Another realm destroyed.”

“As for this current state, itʼs probably the leftovers left by the True Sovereigns for us lesser cultivators to scavenge.”

Before he finished speaking, Daoist Dangmo suddenly frowned, and Lu Yang beside him felt his hair stand on end. He sensed an inexplicable heaviness in his heart, an invisible pressure. Though there were no anomalies, his rich experience led him to a swift judgment:

‘A True Sovereign is watching here!’

Moreover, within the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner, Ancestor Ting You seemed to sense something but dared not show himself. Only a deep hatred flickered in his eyes:

“It’s him... it’s 【Zhengde】!”

【Cheng Tian Zhengde True Sovereign】!

Lu Yang focused inwardly, daring not to speak. Fortunately, the True Sovereignʼs gaze showed no interest in him, not even pausing on him.

The next moment, Daoist Dangmo opened his eyes and looked at him:

“Bring me the 【Shen Jin】.”

“Understood, Senior.”

Lu Yang immediately took out the 【Shen Jin】. Daoist Dangmo gently tapped the hilt of his waist sword, 【No Killing】, releasing a beam of sword light.

Instantly, the sword light entered the 【Shen Jin】, illuminating it. Lu Yang then saw a red dot hidden within the pure and flawless Heavenly Gang Earth Fiend, blood-like in color. Only when the sword light swept over it did it vanish, and the previously lifeless 【Shen Jin】 regained its vitality.

“...Itʼs done.”

After completing this, Daoist Dangmo returned the 【Shen Jin】 to Lu Yang: “I’ve removed the mark; you neednʼt worry about hidden dangers.”

“Thank you, Senior!”

Lu Yang respectfully accepted the 【Shen Jin】, glanced at it, but couldnʼt help but think: Could there be another new mark inside?

Hard to say!

‘Truly a hot potato!’

Lu Yang felt a headache. This 【Shen Jin】 energy was something he sought, but he couldnʼt determine whether others had left traps inside.

‘Itʼs not just the 【Shen Jin】; more importantly, itʼs myself.’

‘Could there be traps left by True Sovereigns on me? If so, even if the 【Shen Jin】 is clean, I canʼt hand it over to my main body.’

‘In that case... reincarnation is imminent!’

Lu Yang pondered deeply, concluding that only the 【Underworld】 could completely cleanse his soul fragment. After all, reincarnation is equal for everyone.

At this moment, Daoist Dangmo suddenly spoke:

“This time, a fragment of the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】ʼs Celestial Court fell into Jiangnan, about to become a new wonder. The True Sovereigns ordered me to lead a team to explore.”

“Fellow Daoist Lü, would you like to join me?”

A fragment of the Mystic Spirit Realmʼs Celestial Court?

Lu Yangʼs eyes lit up. Without hesitation, he cupped his hands and said: “Willing to assist, Senior.”

Opportunity had come!

Die in the secret realm, reincarnate, cleanse his identity, join the Sword Pavilion... In an instant, Lu Yang clarified his thoughts and planned his next steps!

However...

‘Did I forget something?’
