Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect Chapter 353 : The Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upho

Chapter 353: The Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold

When Lü Yang walked out of the Reception Hall, what greeted him was Daoist Dangmo’s sowhat helpless gaze: “I didn’t expect you would actually pay respects to the Ancestor.”

“Co with .”

Daoist Dangmo sighed and didn’t say more. He then led Lü Yang, riding a stream of escape light, and before long, they reached the summit of the Sword Pavilion Mountain Gate.

This place towered above all peaks, offering a view of all the surrounding mountains. A palace stood proudly here, and at this mont, light projections had already manifested—at a glance, they were all Foundation Establishnt Real Persons. After bringing Lü Yang here, Daoist Dangmo wasted no ti. He directly stretched out his hand and produced a thick Dao book.

“Today, disciple Yan Xiao entered the Reception Hall to offer incense to the Ancestor.”

Holding the Dao book reverently, Daoist Dangmo declared solemnly, “By the Ancestor’s decree, you are now designated as a Sword Seed of the sect. You shall exhaust your form and lifespan, cultivate diligently, and uphold the righteous path to guide the world.”

With that, he inscribed the na of Lü Yang’s incarnation in this lifeti into the Dao book.

“You are my first disciple under this seat. By generation, you belong to the ‘Ming’ character generation. Today I bestow upon you a Daoist na—【Ming He】. May you take encouragent from it.”

“Disciple greets Master.”

Lü Yang bowed respectfully and received the token symbolizing the identity of a 【Sword Seed】 from Daoist Dangmo’s hands. He then voluntarily withdrew.

“The position of a Sword Seed is comparable to that of Foundation Establishnt.”

“Holding this token, you may choose a cave dwelling within the Extre Heaven Cliff. Your foundation in your past life was profound—be diligent in your cultivation and quickly return to your forr Real Person position.”

As Lü Yang departed, Daoist Dangmo’s gaze suddenly turned somber.

Almost at the sa ti, a Foundation Establishnt Real Person approached with a smile and said, “Congratulations, Real Person. You’ve gained another cherished disciple. The day of dissolving all karma is not far.”

This man was nad Ye Cheng.

As a mber of the Ye family, he wore a delighted smile: “I’ve heard about it—this man hard Xingfeng, and now he shall repay the evil of his past!”

Hearing this, Daoist Dangmo’s face grew even uglier.

For cultivators from outside who entered the Sword Pavilion, the Sword Pavilion had a complete and concise cleansing process. The Reception Hall was the most critical part.

“All outsiders who enter the Sword Pavilion must first have their past-life mories eliminated. Then they go to the Reception Hall to offer incense, drawing out their fortune and reshaping it into the Sword Pavilion’s fortune. I had thought Fellow Daoist Lü lacked the aptitude to learn the 『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』, so there was still room to turn back. I didn’t expect it would be beyond saving.”

Thinking of this, Daoist Dangmo sighed once more.

“…Heaven’s will.”

The 『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』 was a well-known first-grade true cultivation thod in the Sword Pavilion, yet throughout the Pavilion and beyond, very few actually practiced it.

Among the true bloodlines of the Sword Pavilion, even fewer cultivated it.

If one were to take a closer count, they would find that only disciples who had been Real Persons in past lives and joined the Sword Pavilion after reincarnation practiced this thod!

Within the quiet chamber of a cave dwelling on Extre Heaven Cliff.

“『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』…”

This cultivation thod was vast and profound, with over ten thousand words. It encompassed all aspects of cultivation—and more importantly, it overturned all existing systems of cultivation!

What was a sword cultivator?

Generally, anyone who used a sword was considered a sword cultivator. However, this was not the case in the 『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』, where such were labeled as heterodox.

A true sword cultivator was one who cultivated the sword itself!

Focused on one path, abandoning all else, accompanied solely by a single sword, resonating day and night, sincerely communicating with the divine—only by making the sword their Dao could they be deed a true sword cultivator!

Lü Yang frowned upon reading this. Up to this point, he had seen many cultivators of the Sword Pavilion, but by the standards of the 『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』, perhaps only Daoist Dangmo Ye Guangji could truly be called a “sword cultivator.”

‘Sothing’s not right.’

Years of study in the Primordial Saint Sect told Lü Yang there was sothing fishy here. After all, this was a first-grade true cultivation thod—why would it be shown so casually?

‘…Unless it’s a trap!’

And a deadly trap at that!

Realizing this, Lü Yang beca more vigilant and continued reading the 『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』. Soon, his expression changed.

Monts later, he closed his eyes.

‘I knew the Sword Pavilion wouldn’t be so kind… A first-grade true cultivation thod, and it’s actually a eunuch text! The cultivation portion only went up to Foundation Establishnt perfection—nothing more!’

Indeed, 『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』 was a first-grade true thod because it was the only thod Lü Yang had ever seen that truly aid to “attain a fruit position from emptiness”—and the person who created it clearly intended to manifest a 【Sword Dao Fruit Position】 from nothing. The ambition was astounding.

After all, even 【Wuyoutian】 was not truly void-attained.

‘【Wuyoutian】 is not so much void-attained as it is the transformation of a fruit position prototype through one’s own Dao into a desired form.’

By now, Lü Yang knew what the Myriad Spirits Banner was hiding.

That inexplicable power that once allowed him to temporarily hold the position of a Great Real Person was actually a prototype of a fruit position—sealed by an Innate Real Person after obtaining it!

So strictly speaking, 【Wuyoutian】 still had a foundation.

However, the 『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』 aid to attain a 【Sword Dao Fruit Position】 from true void—sothing entirely different!

The ambition was great—but what of the cost?

‘The cost was borne by us!’

‘Regardless of whether one was Foundation Establishnt in life, no matter their divine abilities—as long as one practiced this thod, they would be turned into a 【Changheng Observant Golden Sword Foundation】.’

‘Even innate divine abilities would be transford!’

This approach was eerily similar to 【Wuyoutian】—dragging down other fruit positions’ Dao foundations to fill the pit of the 【Sword Dao】!

‘The 【Sword Dao Fruit Position】 is hard to attain, so they need people like us to practice this first-grade true thod, using our lifelong talent and enlightennt to fill it bit by bit. If the fruit position were a painting, we’d be the brush and ink to create it.’

‘This thod… is probably made specifically for outsiders!’

Lü Yang realized that outside Real Persons had various Dao foundations. Even if their past-life mories were erased, their souls weren’t reincarnated cleanly, and their Dao foundations remained unchanged.

This thod was perfect to cleanse them again.

First erase the mory, then wash away the fortune, and finally wash the Dao foundation—during which the Sword Pavilion absorbed the fortune and filled the 【Sword Dao Fruit Position】. They profited imnsely!

And I still owe them karma?!

‘Sword Seed… No wonder it’s called Sword Seed!’

‘Without people like us sacrificing our entire cultivation to fill it in, how could the 【Sword Dao Fruit Position】 ever sprout and grow into a towering tree?’

Yet at that mont, Lü Yang suddenly paused:

“No… There were people among the Sword Pavilion bloodline who practiced this first-grade thod—Daoist Dangmo! He seems like a pure sword cultivator!”

Lü Yang had seen Daoist Dangmo in action. When faced with an assault by Heavenly and Earthly Immortals of the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】, that Foundation Establishnt perfection Great Real Person hadn’t used any divine abilities—he rely drew his sword, and that so-called 【Non-Killing Sword Intent】 seed to mark him as a true sword cultivator!

‘But why would he practice such a pitfall?’

‘Could he, like , be a reincarnated external Real Person? No, impossible. He’s a direct bloodline of the Ye family, a trueborn Sword Pavilion mber.’

“…【True Lord of Upholding Heaven’s Virtue】?”

Suddenly, inside the Myriad Spirits Banner, Ancestor Ting You—who was also reading the 『Sword Lord Speaks on the Profound and Upholds the Secret Chapter of Gold』 with Lü Yang—spoke, his expression a bit strange:

“What has been will be again.”

Ancestor Ting You sighed and then said in a deep voice, “Daoist Dangmo Ye Guangji—didn’t he forrly practice 【Wall Soil】?”
