Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect

Chapter 239: Fight Once More!

At this moment, Chong Guang’s figure once again soared into the sky.

And following along with him was the 【Dongyang Blessed Land】, which had already been heavily plundered by Lu Yang and the other Foundation Establishment True Persons, leaving only a small central area intact.

Compared to before, this was undoubtedly much more shabby.

It seemed that even if he ascended to claim the Fruit Position and transformed it into a Cave Heaven, there would still be enormous flaws that would require a long time to slowly mend and restore.

However, no matter what, there was always a sliver of hope!

And even if there was only a sliver of hope, Chong Guang did not hesitate at all. He had already begun his ascent, and in his hand, a thick talisman book suddenly appeared out of thin air.

【Life Exchange Fate Changing Talisman Book】!

This treasure, which had fallen into Hong Ju’s hands and had been crafted by Daoist Hong Yun in the past, was a Fruit Position treasure derived from the 【Overturning Lamp Flame】 and truly involved methods at the Golden Core realm.

Previously, Hong Ju had lent this to Lu Yang to write a single phrase, using it to assassinate Prince Qing. Afterwards, Hong Ju had taken it back. Who would have thought that after Hong Ju’s death, this Fruit Position treasure would be silently reclaimed by Chong Guang? And now, as he brought it out once again, what was he planning to do?

Very quickly, Lu Yang understood Chong Guang’s intentions.

He saw Chong Guang open the 【Life Exchange Fate Changing Talisman Book】, and behind his head, circles of radiant light emerged, astonishingly revealing the vast karmic merits and fate he had once possessed as an Innate Celestial Spirit!

At this moment, however, all those karmic merits and fate were being entirely consumed by him!

Celestial Spirits, born of heaven and nurtured by earth, were favored by the heavens and earth, their karmic merits and fate far exceeding those of ordinary people. Yet now, it was only enough for Chong Guang to write six short characters in the book:

【I can make Chen Earth return.】

By the time the sixth character was written, Chong Guang had already exhausted all his karmic merits and fate. Boundless tribulation qi had already emerged, and with this death, he was destined to reincarnate as a pig or a dog for a hundred lifetimes!

Yet, even so, Chong Guang still maintained a calm expression.

His gaze remained clear, clearly using some secret technique to temporarily suppress the influence of the tribulation qi. His hand did not slow down in the slightest.

Immediately after, he turned his gaze toward the gathered mid-Foundation Establishment cultivators.

He then gave a kind smile:

“Everyone, I must trouble you to lend me a hand.”

As soon as his words fell, almost everyone felt their own karmic merits and fate being stirred by some force, irresistibly surging toward Chong Guang!

However, Lu Yang had long since been accustomed to this, even to the point of finding it routine.

‘It’s this trick again…!’

Which of the Foundation Establishment True Persons present hadn’t taken something from the Dongyang Blessed Land? All of these were karmic debts, and now, it was time for them to repay!

Especially Lu Yang, who had practically stripped Chong Ming clean, taking so many treasures. The karmic debt he owed Chong Guang had already compounded upon itself endlessly and could never be fully repaid. Now that Chong Guang’s secret technique fell upon him, it was naturally merciless, clearly aiming to drain all his karmic merits and fate!

For a moment, countless people wished to flee from the Blessed Land.

However, when they activated their escape lights, they found that the entire Blessed Land had already been completely sealed off. With their mere mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation, there was no way they could break through!

In the past, there would have been True Monarchs stationed outside who might have intervened to save people.

But now?

The True Monarchs outside had already changed their stance, eager to help Chong Guang ascend. How could they possibly stop him? They would only sit back and watch as the situation continued to unfold!

And with Chong Guang’s cultivation, suppressing a group of mid-Foundation Establishment cultivators was as easy as flipping his hand!

‘I knew it… True Persons of the Saint Sect cannot be trusted!’

Seeing this, Lu Yang sighed softly: “Didn’t Uncle-Master say that one must rely on oneself?”

“Indeed.”

True Person Chong Guang smiled slightly: “The karmic merits and fate I am plundering by my own ability, how could that not be considered relying on myself? Yuan Tu, you should endure a little longer.”

However, in the very next second, Chong Guang’s voice suddenly halted.

Because in Lu Yang’s hand, the Abyssal Sword suddenly erupted with a flash of light. The wondrous ability 【Chi Dragon】 activated, with the sword’s tip pointed directly at Chong Guang.

“Uncle-Master, I leave the decision to you.”

Lu Yang’s expression remained calm. Since he had plundered Chong Ming, how could he not have anticipated the trouble that would follow? Naturally, he had the confidence to handle it, or he wouldn’t have dared to make such a move in the first place.

“Either you stop yourself, or I strike with this sword.”

Of course, this strike couldn’t harm Chong Guang’s body, but with the wondrous ability 【Chi Dragon】 enhancing it, it could sever karmic fate!

Chong Guang had gone through great effort to gather the karmic merits and fate of so many people. If Lu Yang were to strike now and ruin everything at the last moment, it would be a massive loss!

At this thought, a smile immediately appeared on True Person Chong Guang’s face:

“Yuan Tu, you misunderstand. Just now, I was merely testing your capability. Now that I see it clearly, you are indeed a pillar of our Saint Sect, with boundless prospects.”

Lu Yang likewise smiled: “Uncle-Master flatters me.”

With that, the two exchanged glances.

‘Little fox!’

‘Dog bastard!’

The camaraderie of their former days as fellow disciples had now been utterly torn apart. After a moment of silence, True Person Chong Guang finally spoke in a low voice:

“Do you want the Second-Grade True Art?”

“.Oh?”

Lu Yang’s eyes lit up slightly, realizing that he had finally gained Chong Guang’s recognition. The other party was no longer forcing things but had chosen to negotiate a deal with him.

He saw Chong Guang say in a deep voice:

“I know you’ve spoken with Miao Yin. She gave you the incomplete version of the 『Universal Supreme Divine Art of Qian Heaven’s Origin Commanding All Heavens』, but she didn’t give you the crucial 【Qi Harvesting Method】. There’s also that Ye Guyue from the Sword Pavilion. She also has a Second-Grade True Art. You want them, don’t you?”

“I can give them to you!”

Chong Guang said indifferently: “Give me one-third of your karmic merits and fate, and I can give you the complete version of the 『Universal Supreme Divine Art of Qian Heaven’s Origin Commanding All Heavens』 right now.”

“Afterward, I will also specially leave behind a fragment of the Blessed Land.”

“Next time I ascend the Blessed Land, I will put you and that Ye Guyue from the Sword Pavilion together. She is currently depleted of fate and will not be your match.”

“At the same time, I will seal the Blessed Land to ensure she cannot escape.”

“By then, you can freely harvest her as you wish.”

Hearing this, Lu Yang immediately fell silent.

He had to admit that Chong Guang’s proposal was extremely tempting. After all, his greatest goal on this trip was to—no, to obtain the Second-Grade True Art.

“But Uncle-Master, how can I trust that you will keep your word?”

Before Lu Yang finished speaking, he saw Chong Guang raise his hand and throw out a beam of dazzling light. Scanning it with his divine sense, it was indeed the complete version of the 『Universal Supreme Divine Art of Qian Heaven’s Origin Commanding All Heavens』!

“With this, even if I break my word, you won’t have lost out.”

“.Very well!”

Seeing this, Lu Yang finally made his decision. He had no intention of pushing things too far. The threat had only been to gain benefits; there was no point in fighting to the death.

With this in mind, he no longer resisted Chong Guang’s absorption of his karmic fate.

Chong Guang did not play any tricks, taking only one-third of Lu Yang’s karmic merits and fate before turning his attention back to the 【Life Exchange Fate Changing Talisman Book】.

Lifting the brush, he wrote the final character: 【Yang】

【I can make Chen Earth return to Yang】!

“Boom!”

In an instant, the mighty power of the 【Overturning Lamp Flame】 resonated with heaven and earth, crashing down upon Chong Guang, and then, centered on him, began to expand outward in all directions!

Previously, Chong Guang had merely altered the attribute of the 【Chen Earth】 in his possession back to Yang Earth. But now, through the power of the Fruit Position treasure, he was extending this reversal to the entire world! He was clearly attempting to change all the 【Chen Earth】 in heaven and earth from Yin Earth back to Yang Earth!

“Fight once more!”

Chong Guang’s voice resounded in all directions. In an instant, everyone, including Lu Yang, was thrown out of the Blessed Land, which once again began to rise into the sky!

However, at that very moment—

“Whoosh whoosh!”

Clouds and mist filled the sky as purple qi came from the east.

In the blink of an eye, the vast purple qi surged like an endless river, stretching across the north and south, forcibly cutting off Chong Guang’s path of ascension!

And what followed was a thunderous rebuke like a bolt from the blue:

“Seeking death!”
