Struggling to Survive with Regression Power in the Primordial Saint Sect Chapter 371 : "Have Things Been Going Too Smoothly for Me La
Chapter 371: "Have Things Been Going Too Smoothly for Lately?"
‘【Insight】!’
As the clear radiance of the spell descended upon Lü Yang, his nearly unconscious mind instantly regained clarity.
‘Maintain tranquility to reach the utmost emptiness.’
【Sword Heart Clarity】!
This was the second realm of swordsmanship, corresponding to the Foundation Establishnt True Person. Compared to other cultivators, it equated to possessing an additional innate divine ability, which now played a crucial role.
Of course, this alone was insufficient.
More importantly—
‘Purple Talent: Quite Capable!’
【Quite Capable: No matter how terrifying the attack you face, as long as it's within your capacity, you can handle it with ease—twice.】
Granted by the Book of a Hundred Lifetis, this talent didn't require active activation. It would automatically trigger when Lü Yang encountered an attack he couldn't normally withstand but could theoretically counter, allowing him to handle it gracefully—twice.
At this mont, it took effect.
Lü Yang had just achieved 【Sword Heart Clarity】, and perhaps only had a one in ten thousand chance of perceiving the danger in the recent crisis.
However, 【Quite Capable】 made it a certainty!
Seizing this brief respite, Lü Yang reacted swiftly. While under the marvelous influence of 【Insight】, he quickly activated another divine ability.
‘【Entrapnt Intent】!’
His consciousness connected with his swordsmanship avatar, and the 【Bright Harmony Eternal World Upright Golden Sword】 in its hand radiated brilliant light, followed by a crisp shattering sound.
In the recent battle with Long Yue, Lü Yang had deployed 【Entrapnt Intent】 from the start! At this mont, the entire Sacred Mountain of the Myriad Poison Sect was within its range. Though he hadn't yet retracted it, now, upon Lü Yang's activation, it imdiately began to reverse the unfavorable situation, turning adversity into nothingness.
“Crack!”
In the next second, the world before Lü Yang shattered with a roar. However, what caused his expression to change slightly was that he hadn't thereby erased his true body from the reality within the pool.
He remained within the Moon-Worshipping Pool.
He had rely returned to the mont he first entered, with a clear mind and before the strange drowsiness had set in. Yet, the crisis was still unresolved!
In fact, it arrived even faster!
The drowsiness erged more swiftly than before, and a lodious whisper echoed in his ears, as if expounding the profound principles of the universe.
But this ti, Lü Yang was prepared.
With a thought, he sealed his six senses. Under the augntation of 【Sword Heart Clarity】, ti nearly halted in his perception, allowing him to sit quietly within his mind.
This was another marvelous use of 【Sword Heart Clarity】: the ability to enter a space where only his consciousness existed. In this space, long periods could pass, while only an instant elapsed in the outside world. In critical monts, he could retreat here to contemplate solutions before returning to face the situation calmly.
‘What exactly is going on?’
Lü Yang's eyes shone brilliantly. Despite being in a crisis, he beca even more composed, his divine intent like a sword, cutting down all negative emotions.
‘Who is secretly plotting against , [Ang Xiao]?’
He began to review all his experiences since his rebirth, searching for anomalies.
“Have things been going too smoothly for lately?”
Indeed, it seed as if the heavens and earth were aiding him. Everything he did turned danger into safety. After reincarnating into the Sword Pavilion, everything went smoothly, without the slightest difficulty.
As a result, his forr caution seed to have vanished.
Encountering an unknown 【Moon-Worshipping Sacred Pool】, he hadn't examined it carefully or explored it thoroughly. Instead, he rushed in with his true body without hesitation!
Is this ? This isn't !
“This place is naturally ford; I am of the Immortal Spirit body.”
Naturally, a thought surfaced in Lü Yang's mind: “...Is Heaven and Earth trying to harm ?”
Why? Isn't the Immortal Spirit the most favored child of Heaven?
“Wait... I rember now.”
At this mont, when Lü Yang directed his suspicion toward "Heaven and Earth," it was as if he had found the key to a previously locked door.
Had he ever doubted Heaven and Earth?
Yes, he had!
Back then, while searching for 【Shen Jin】 in the mass grave, he discovered that 【Shen Jin】's opportunity had coincidentally fallen into his hands, which raised his suspicions!
And then?
‘Nothing followed—because after the mass grave incident and the subsequent events in the 【Mystic Spirit Realm】, I naturally overlooked it!’
Were there other instances?
‘Yes... Hong Yun!’
Ten years ago, he had defied a Golden Core True Person, refining Hong Yun's golden nature using the Book of a Hundred Lifetis, thereby obtaining the accumulation of Hong Yun's countless years of cultivation.
What a trendous fortune!
But in reality?
‘I didn't utilize it at all; I rely treated Hong Yun's golden nature as a shell, and hardly reviewed the contents settled by the Book of a Hundred Lifetis.’
At this thought, Lü Yang felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, drenched in cold sweat:
‘That's it—because Hong Yun, like now, was also favored by Heaven and Earth. His connection with Heaven and Earth was even closer. Yet, in the end, he chose to abandon this world. In his mories... there are likely parts that Heaven and Earth don't want to know!’
This is the 【Obstruction of Knowledge】!
‘[Ang Xiao] secretly targeting ? No, that's not right. If it were [Ang Xiao], I wouldn't have been able to kill Hong Yun and obtain the golden nature.’
Then why?
Both events occurred while he was interacting with [Ang Xiao]. This feeling resembled an influence exerted by [Great Forest Tree] itself.
‘In that case, if Heaven and Earth so desired, perhaps they could also invoke the power of the fruit position?’
‘True Persons aren't the true masters of Heaven and Earth's fruit positions!?’
At this realization, Lü Yang instead felt a sense of relief: ‘No... Heaven and Earth itself must have limitations and cannot act recklessly against .’
Perhaps because the Dao Lord still existed, like a tiger or wolf nearby. In any case, even if Heaven and Earth truly intended to deal with him, it would have to painstakingly set up traps.
The bad news was, he had already fallen into one.
‘Wait... still not right. Even if they wanted to deal with , isn't this timing too early? I haven't even cultivated the Immortal Spirit to perfection yet.’
He was still missing the final 【You tal】.
Although Lü Yang could use 【Holding the Law】 to preemptively evolve the 【You tal】 divine ability, a counterfeit remained a counterfeit; he hadn't truly obtained 【You tal】.
Therefore, his Immortal Spirit body was not yet complete.
‘Even if Heaven and Earth truly harbored ill intentions toward , they should have been more patient, waiting until I obtained 【You tal】 and completed the great work before taking action.’
At this point, Lü Yang already understood Heaven and Earth's intentions.
Simply put, Lü Yang had been playing a full developnt ga, finally reaching max level with full equipnt, ready to enjoy himself. Then Heaven and Earth told him, "You can hand over the mouse now."
‘Bastards!’
This was clearly an attempt to seize his hard-earned fruits of victory!
But still, it was too early. He hadn't obtained 【You tal】 yet. Or was there so reason compelling Heaven and Earth to act prematurely?
At that mont—
“Boom!”
A sudden loud noise interrupted Lü Yang's thoughts, forcing him out of the 【Sword Heart Clarity】 state, and ti resud its flow.
The intense drowsiness struck once more.
However, this ti, Lü Yang still managed to handle Heaven and Earth's ntal intrusion with ease, using 【Tribulation Wave】 and 【Sword Heart Clarity】.
【Quite Capable】!
One instance just now, another now.
In the next second, Lü Yang reactivated the divine ability 【Entrapnt Intent】. With the transformation between reality and illusion, he erased the unfavorable conditions, restoring his state to clarity.
This ti, the whispering in his ears finally changed.
Moreover, it wasn't just whispers; several images accompanied them. In the images, Buddhist light filled the sky, reflecting a compassionate golden Buddha statue.
He rode a six-tusked white elephant, with a white lotus in its mouth. Seated in ditation, he ford the Demon-Subduing Seal, and the light of prajna could eliminate all worldly greed and desires. Like a bright sun hanging in the clear sky, it was perfect and flawless, radiating boundless light, nearly blinding Lü Yang.
However, in the next second, all these visions dissolved.
The golden body vanished, the Buddha statue disappeared.
What t his eyes was rely a young monk with hands clasped together and a compassionate smile. The familiar face brought sudden realization to Lü Yang's eyes.
‘Guang Ming.’
Why was Heaven and Earth acting so hastily?
Because Guang Ming had arrived! More precisely, the 【Buddha Child】 had arrived. But what else could the Buddha Child of the Pure Land be? Frankly, he was the representative of the World Honored One!
