Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 307: Where Non-Action Exists, Action Emerges; Where Action Exists, It Returns to Non-Action

As the words fell, the [Underworld Messenger] opened its massive mouth.

Within the blood-colored maw was a tongue resembling a river of blood, and its sharp fangs were like a heap of white bones. A piercing screech echoed as if countless vengeful spirits cried out in unison.

“Boom!”

In an instant, a terrifying divine radiance shook Lu Yangʼs sea of consciousness violently. Strands of golden light immediately enveloped his divine sense.

[Stubborn Gold Duke]!

This innate divine ability was a standard life-saving technique. With its divine power, one could withstand axes and halberds without harm, even protecting the sea of consciousness!

However, the [Underworld Messenger]ʼs strength was clearly far above Lu Yangʼs, as it was created by [Ang Xiao], starting as a late-stage Foundation Establishment grand cultivator.

Soon after, the golden light formed by [Stubborn Gold Duke] shattered under the [Underworld Messenger]ʼs screech. The terrifying sound waves reverberated within Lu Yangʼs sea of consciousness, until his sea of consciousness, divine soul, and memories were all shattered into a tangled mess, only then did the screeching cease.

But in the next moment—

“Hmm?”

A golden light suddenly appeared. Before the [Underworld Messenger] could react, a sword light rose from the shattered sea of consciousness and slashed toward it!

“Not dead yet?”

The [Underworld Messenger] blocked the sword light with a look of astonishment, only to find its dharma body disintegrating inch by inch under the illumination of the sword light, like ice and snow melting!

[Master of Arms]!

Lu Yang naturally wouldnʼt entrust the [Tribulation Wave] to a clone, so at this moment, he used a portion of the mystical power symbolizing ”Transformation” from the [Master of Arms].

Transformation signifies change.

When things reach their extreme, they change!

This divine ability could alter the nature of objects, turning gold into iron, iron into mud. Under its influence, the [Underworld Messenger] felt its originally light soul body suddenly become countless times heavier, and its once ethereal divine sense gradually took on a tangible metallic sensation!

“How is this possible?”

The [Underworld Messenger] widened its eyes, completely unable to comprehend: “...My [Malevolent Yin Screech] shattered your sea of consciousness, how can you still engage in battle?”

The answer was simple.

ʼThe cloneʼs sea of consciousness is shattered, but what does that have to do with my main body? As long as my soul isnʼt scattered and the [Puppet on Strings] remains, I can forcibly make him fight!ʼ

Though that was the case, Lu Yang was already cursing inwardly.

ʼWhereʼs Hong Ju? Whereʼs Clear Snow True Lord? Why havenʼt they acted? Canʼt they see such a massive [Underworld Messenger] invading my sea of consciousness?ʼ

Teammates, where are you? Save me!

Meanwhile, the [Underworld Messenger] seemed to see through Lu Yangʼs thoughts and sneered: “Donʼt hold onto false hopes; no one can help you now.”

“Long before awakening, I spread the [Scorched Stone]. Now, in your sea of consciousness, even if a million years pass, only a moment has passed outside. Perhaps someone has already tried to save you, but before they can, youʼll have been tormented by the loneliness here into giving up thinking.”

After speaking, the [Underworld Messenger] expected Lu Yang to be terrified.

However, what met its gaze was Lu Yangʼs eyes filled with greedy fervor.

ʼSuch a divine ability exists...ʼ

Lu Yang was amazed. A million years within a single thought—clearly, the [Underworld Messenger]ʼs methods were all designed to abandon the physical body and target the soul.

Which fruit position does this correspond to?

ʼ...The Underworld!ʼ

Thinking of this, Lu Yang became even more restless. In todayʼs world, there had never been a cultivator practicing the [Underworld]; this was the first he had seen!

How was it cultivated?

ʼThis monsterʼs mana is very peculiar. Although I didnʼt notice it before, after the battle and the resonance of qi, it feels somewhat familiar.ʼ

A bit like a celestial spirit!

ʼDamn it, could this be a celestial spirit born from the qi of the [Underworld]? Not only the Heavenly Gang and Earth Fiends, but the [Underworld] can also give birth to celestial spirits!?ʼ
