Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 274: Kill Him to the Fullest!

Outside the Four Seas Gate, Overturning Sea.

It was said that this place was not originally a sea, but a great island, resembling land, which in the last millennium catastrophe had turned into a battlefield for a True Lord beyond the seas.

As a result, the heavens collapsed and the earth shattered, and the grand island sank into the sea, along with the countless cultivators and over a hundred sects, all wiped out.

Since then, it had been named 【Overturning Sea】.

Because it was close to the Four Seas Gate, the residence of True Lords, rarely did blind monsters dare to approach.

However, the scene had now changed.

Because this 【Overturning Sea】 now had a divine mountain rising from the sea, and the Magnetic Divine Light on the mountain shone upon the blue sky, causing the five elements to fall into chaos wherever it passed.

At this moment, right outside the divine mountain.

One could see schools of Cloud Whales cutting through the waves, bringing with them rolling demonic aura that gathered into a vast black cloud, slowly approaching and completely surrounding the divine mountain.

Next, the Cloud Whales opened their mouths.

Wave after wave of shrimp soldiers and crab generals wielding magical weapons, along with sea monsters forming formations, spread out across the sea as if walking on flat ground.

At the center of these demon soldiers, a woman clad in light armor that outlined her graceful figure stood tall.

A pair of immature dragon horns grew amidst her three thousand strands of green hair, radiating the brilliance of divine powers, making her the center of the countless demon soldiers, her pair of golden pupils burning like fire, illuminating the surrounding sea.

She was none other than the Dragon King 【Sui Ling】.

Her cultivation was no match for Sui Ying, only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, having refined a single innate divine ability, but she was fully aware of this and had long prepared her means.

At this moment, looking at the demon soldiers filling the sky, Sui Ling squinted her eyes in satisfaction.

‘My daily hard training has not been in vain, finally gathering the soldiers needed for the 【Heavenly Demon Sea Commanding Grand Formation】. This is the perfect time to show off my skills!’

Though Sui Ling intended to avenge Sui Ying, she knew that her cultivation was not even equal to Sui Yingʼs.

So this time, she had brought out all her resources, a total of four hundred and ninety thousand demon soldiers.

As they formed the formation with her at the center, she was confident that unless a Grand True Person came in person, she had the ability to suppress everything.

‘What a pity I still lack enough prestige.’

‘If my elder brother personally wrote the decree and summoned the palace demons, gathering a million soldiers, even a Grand True Person might not stand a chance!’

Besides that, Sui Ling had further plans in mind.

This was not only to avenge Sui Ying but also to seize the opportunity to build her reputation, gain the Dragon Kingʼs favor, and advance further in the Dragon Palace.

At that moment, a demon soldier suddenly came to report, “Your Highness, a group of Buddhist cultivators has arrived outside the formation, claiming they want to enter the mountain.”

Sui Ling was stunned upon hearing this. “Buddhist cultivators? What are they here for? Are they here to convert our Dragon Palace disciples into some kind of Guardian Heavenly Dragons of the Pure Land?”

With this thought, Sui Ling immediately opened the formation gate.

Before long, twenty-four monks with compassionate faces strolled in, the leader having white eyebrows and wearing a golden jade kasaya.

“Amitabha!”

Upon seeing Sui Ling, the leading old monk immediately pressed his palms together and chanted the Buddhaʼs name, then smiled lightly and said, “This humble monk Hui Ku, greets Benefactor Sui Ling.”

“No need for formalities.” Sui Ling waved her hand, staring directly at the old monk, and found that he was only at the peak of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, which greatly put her at ease.

‘Not a Pure Land Venerable of Grand True Person level, he canʼt stir up any waves.’

Thinking this, Sui Ling calmed down considerably and asked in a deep voice, “Master has come from afar, may I ask what the purpose is? Is it also for this divine mountain?”

“Not at all.”

Hui Ku shook his head. “We have come by the decree of the Bodhisattva, to respectfully invite the 【Broad Strength Heavenly Dragon Arhat】 to return to his place. Benefactor must not kill him.”

“. What?”

Sui Ling’s expression turned angry as she calculated with her fingers. “What 【Broad Strength Heavenly Dragon Arhat】? It’s clearly that Yuan Tu of the Primordial Saint Sect who killed Sui Ying!”

“You all intend to stop me from avenging my elder brother?”

“Amitabha.” Hui Ku smiled and said, “An eye for an eye will never end. Benefactor is attached to appearances. Could it be that you also wish to come with us to the Pure Land to purify your mind?”

These words instantly sobered Sui Ling, who heard the hidden meaning in Hui Ku’s words.

This was clearly telling her to obediently cooperate and hand over Yuan Tu to the Pure Land.

If she refused to comply, she would likely have to follow them to the Pure Land as well, to become a Guardian Heavenly Dragon!

“. Forget it.”

With that thought, Sui Lingʼs tone softened a lot. “Since the Pure Land desires him, so be it. When the time comes, you can make your move yourselves.”

After all, entering the Pure Land was a fate worse than death, which counted as revenge in itself.

Only then did Hui Ku nod in satisfaction.

Next, the twenty-four monks took their positions at one corner of the formation.

Among them, twenty-one were at the peak of Qi Refining, possessing the rank of Guardian Vajra.

Besides Hui Ku, there were also two Arhats at the early Foundation Establishment stage.

At this moment, one Arhat leaned toward Hui Ku and whispered, “Senior Brother, we arenʼt really going to fight that Yuan Tu, are we?”

Lu Yang was already famous in the inland.

Especially when he publicly surpassed Ye Guyue.

Back then, Hui Ku had witnessed it with his own eyes and remembered it vividly, fully aware of how terrifying this great demon was.

However, despite that, Hui Ku remained calm in the face of the Arhat’s lack of confidence.

“Donʼt worry. This time, itʼs the Bodhisattva’s personal decree. All sides have long reached an agreement. Do you think that Yuan Tu is still the same as before, with someone from the heavens backing him?”

“He’s already a fallen phoenix, not even as good as a chicken!”

“Without a True Lord backing him, who can he rely on?”

“Just wait for him to walk right into the trap, let these demons take the hit outside, and we can sit back and reap the benefits!”

After speaking, Hui Ku showed a pleased expression.

After all, he had pulled strings with several Venerables in the Pure Land to secure this chance to make a great achievement.

Meanwhile, outside the 【Overturning Sea】.

Lu Yang and Suo Huan flew over on their light beams, but they stopped far away, frowning as they looked at the monstrous demon clouds ahead.

Suo Huan then took out the 【Void Sky Mirror】.

Pointing the mirror toward the distant demon clouds, a divine light emerged, instantly revealing the scene within.

Besides the demonic aura, the dazzling Buddhist light of the Buddhist cultivators was equally glaring.

“It really is the Four Seas Gate.”

Seeing this, Lu Yang shook his head, feeling that the situation was even worse than expected.

The plan to sneak in with his Dharma Body was clearly impossible now.

“Besides that, there are Buddhist cultivators as well.” Suo Huan’s expression also changed as he glanced at Lu Yang and sighed helplessly, “I’m afraid they are here for you, my friend.”

“You really have it rough.”

Lu Yang clasped his hands behind his back and forced a bitter smile at these words.

‘This damned place… I really can’t hide here at all! Why do they have to push me like this?’

For some reason, he suddenly recalled the first few lifetimes, the time when he first faced the Mending Heaven Peak Lord, drew his sword to slash the heavens, but was pressed to death with a single finger.

‘Is this really unavoidable destiny?’

‘But how did Chong Guang manage to endure back then?’

In a flash, the last conversation he had with Chong Guang in the 【Dongyang Blessed Land】 resurfaced in his mind.

Back then, he hadn’t thought much of it, but now it struck him deeply:

‘A person must rely on themselves!’

Lu Yangʼs thoughts spun rapidly.

He first closed his eyes, then opened them again, his gaze turning icy and filled with murderous intent as he looked toward the Magnetic Divine Mountain.

‘Yes, I can only rely on myself!’

‘I am already a discarded pawn. Only by relying on my own strength to cut down all obstacles, achieving the peak of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, and using the【Tribulation Wave】’s【Law Holding】mystery to preemptively grasp a third innate divine ability, faking the position of Grand True Person, can I hope to break through the current predicament and regain the favor of the True Lord.’

By now, neither he nor Suo Huan had any way to retreat.

All they could do was move forward.

“. So be it.”

With this thought, Lu Yang looked again at the overwhelming demonic aura and dazzling Buddhist light in the distance, revealing a cold grin: “Perfect, no need to distinguish friend from foe—kill them to the fullest!”
