Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 392: The Ancestor of the Saint Sect is Too Devious!

Mu Changsheng!?

This name was likely recognized by few in the world today, yet it unmistakably belonged to the Innate True Person who had once established the 【Void Heaven】!

Why was he here?

Through the perspective of the 【String Puppet】, Lu Yang saw the soulʼs light and shadow roaring in the sky, and countless speculations flashed through his mind in an instant.

‘Somethingʼs not right. I recall that back in the 【Void Heaven】, the Innate True Person did mention that the version of him within the Void Heaven was merely his consciousness, much like my current state. His actual soul had long since reincarnated. So, the one appearing in the Secret Realm of Law Refinement now—is it his consciousness or his soul?’

“Boom!”

Just as Lu Yang was pondering, he saw the soul in the sky roar once more before slowly descending, revealing a miserable appearance.

Despite his fierce curses,

his soul was exceedingly thin, not even reaching the Foundation Establishment stage. As the halo spread, a face that Lu Yang found somewhat familiar emerged.

‘This is...’([Beijing Foreign Affairs Office][2])

The personʼs appearance instantly triggered Lu Yangʼs memory.

He had encountered him in the Secret Realm of Law Refinement, marking his first battle against a Foundation Establishment-level enemy. Had luck not been on his side, he might have perished there.

At that time, he had entered the Secret Realm of Law Refinement to cultivate the 『Saintʼs Theft』 but was unknowingly manipulated by the reincarnated ancestor of the Yun family. If not for a local mortal within the secret realm who enlightened him, he might never have realized he was being used. In a way, he owed that person a debt of gratitude.

Therefore, in a subsequent lifetime, he had specifically guided that person out once.

‘...Wang Boyuan?’

The familiar name surfaced in Lu Yangʼs mind, filling him with disbelief. He had never imagined this would be connected to the Innate True Person.

For a moment, Lu Yangʼs thoughts were in disarray.

Damn, after playing in low-level scenarios for so long, suddenly returning to high-level play made his brain feel inadequate.

At that moment, the soulʼs light and shadow seemed to sense something and directly looked toward the Yun familyʼs ancestor, then sneered:

“Where did this Foundation Establishment come from?”

Lu Yang chose not to use the 【String Puppet】 to control the Yun familyʼs ancestor but silently watched, allowing the ancestor to act naturally. The ancestor frowned and asked:

“...Who are you?”

“Didnʼt you just hear it?” The soulʼs light and shadow sighed, “I am indeed Mu Changsheng, the one from the 【Void Heaven】.”

After speaking, a look of grievance flashed in his eyes once more.

“Beast!”([Wikisource][3])

He couldnʼt help but curse again.

Having established the 【Void Heaven】 and orchestrated plans backed by heaven and earth for five thousand years, his schemes were undeniably profound, nearly grasping the worldʼs grand trends in his hands.

First, he used the 【Long Flowing Water】 to fill the prototype of the fruit position, evolving the 【Void Heaven】, then widely propagated the 【Void Heaven】 across the world. Without needing to do anything, under the despairing situation where True Lords ruled the world and seeking gold was as hard as ascending to heaven, eventually, someone exceptional would choose to pursue gold through the path of the 【Void Heaven】.

Regardless of their origin,

as long as they walked the path of the 【Void Heaven】 to seek gold and ascend, they would naturally become his allies. As expected, Chong Guang stepped forward.

After that, things became simple.

‘Chong Guang inherits the 【Void Heaven】, seeks gold to ascend, while my consciousness is invested in the mortal world to find the reincarnated soul, then overwrite it...’

Previously, many believed that the Innate True Person would possess those who passed through the 【Void Heaven】.

This statement was both correct and incorrect.

Because although he planned to possess, he never intended to possess outsiders but aimed to possess his own reincarnated soul thousands of years later!

Otherwise, why would he create the method of separating consciousness?

To separate consciousness alone, then let the soul reincarnate, cleansing the traces of the Great Dao, and then the consciousness would possess, retracing the path of cultivation!
