At this moment, Lu Yang suddenly saw the light.
Indeed, I still need to communicate more with seniors to see the road ahead clearly and understand how to break through to the mid-stage. This great battle has already paid for itself...
This kind of enlightenment was most precious.
If such critical knowledge were pointed out by others, it would ultimately lack the throb deep in the soul—knowing the how but not the why, useless for Dao comprehension.
Enlightening oneself, that was true understanding.
Unfortunately, this world wasn't that naive. The growth in Dao comprehension couldn't immediately affect Lu Yang's cultivation base; it was impossible for him to break through directly on the battlefield.
Therefore, the crisis remained.
In fact, because Lu Yang directly spoke out her greatest secret, the killing intent hidden deep in [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer]'s beautiful eyes became even more intense.
Although by publicly displaying the Dao-Seeking Immortal Method this time, she was prepared to be studied and targeted by perfected lords of her generation, having the truth seen through so quickly would still put her at a disadvantage when facing other mid-stage Golden Core perfected lords in the future. And all this was given to her by Lu Yang!
Without killing this scoundrel, the hatred in her heart would be hard to dispel.
At this moment, [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] simply stopped disguising herself. Deliberately pretending to be fast, her ten fingers formed, setting a hand seal.
"[Immutable Causality Immortal Method]!"
As her voice fell, a dazzling auspicious color suddenly lit up at her fingertips, brilliant to the extreme. The moment it illuminated, it also reflected in Lu Yang's pupils.
Instantly, a familiar feeling emerged.
Cause and effect retribution, the future is set!
Compared to [City Rampart Earth]'s [Commanding Past and Present], it's not worth mentioning. It's not directly setting karma, but finding karma that already exists on me.
simply put, it was changing possibilities.
As long as a certain possibility existed on Lu Yang, [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] could turn it into a certainty using the [mmutable Causality Immortal Method].
Just like the previous battle—because [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] was at the mid-stage of the Golden Core and Lu Yang was only at the early stage, the possibility of Lu Yang getting injured in a clash was incredibly high. And [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer], relying on her Immortal Method, made these possibilities that hadn't happened yet directly become reality!
This move is great for crushing weaker opponents!
With the intuition of a Saint Sect perfected lord, Lu Yang made a judgment instantly— Under the influence of this Immortal Method, defeating a stronger opponent was nearly impossible!
After all, defeating a stronger opponent was inherently a matter of chance.
And [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer]'s immortal method was enough to thoroughly snuff out such chance.
However, correspondingly, the lower the probability, the harder it should be for her to make it reality. That's why she hasn't been able to kill me until now...
Enlightenment dawned in Lu Yang's heart.
If any possibility could be modified, [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] would have killed him in the first strike; why wait until now?
From this, it can be seen that the probability of me being killed by her should be extremely low... so low that even with her mid-stage Golden Core cultivation, going all out cannot make it reality. That's why she has to injure me first, then continuously weaken my state to increase the possibility of killing me.
In a flash, Lu Yang had sorted out his thoughts.
Meanwhile, the light of the Immortal Method invoked by [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] drifted over. Unstoppable and unavoidable, it shrouded him in the center.
Splurt!
Instantly, gap after gap exploded on Lu Yang's body. Large amounts of "potential injuries" actually appeared on him accurately and realistically.
In this instant, [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] seemingly used her full strength, rapidly consuming her spiritual power. Clearly, she wanted to heavily injure Lu Yang at the fastest speed. Even if she couldn't kill him, as long as he was powerless to maintain the suppression on the two Bodhisattvas and the Grand Tutor and Grand Guardian, the situation could be reversed again.
At this moment, all directions sensed it.
Watching [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] erupting with full force, many perfected lords' pupils shrank slightly, asking themselves: If I were up there, would there be hope to block it?
Clang!
In the Jiangnan Sword Pavilion, Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon held the [No-Kill Sword] at his waist firmly. However, his soaring sword qi was suppressed by another mighty aura.
"You want to stop me?" Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon's expression was cold.
Inside his body, the newly attained [Sword Dao Fruit] began to erupt. A terrifying sword intent capable of severing everything gradually emerged from him.
"...Don't rush."
Deep in the Sword Pavilion, a slightly helpless voice drifted over: "That demon dragon won't die... Besides, this is something he should experience."
Without strength, who dare to establish a sect and Dao lineage in the inland?
Meanwhile, in Jiangbei, within the Heaven-Connecting Cloud Sea, Chong Guang, who prepared to act like Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon, was also stopped by a beautiful figure standing with hands behind her back.
"Perfected Lord..." Chong Guang looked puzzled.
"Just watch." Perfected Lord Feixue smiled faintly: "Supreme Dao Fruit [Heavenly Fire]... if he can't even achieve a mere reversal against a stronger opponent, what right does he have to talk about being supreme?"
As if verifying her words.
Just then, Lu Yang, covered in wounds all over, suddenly raised his head. The [Inscribing Heavenly Chapters] at the center of his brow almost shattered at this moment.
"Hm?"
Instantly, [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer]'s heart sank slightly.
The profound wonder of the supreme Dao Fruit has been pushed to the extreme; it's already the limit he can invoke currently. What does he want to do? And what can he do to me?
In the next second, Lu Yang moved.
Clang!
The [Tribulation Wave] was drawn. A clear and bright sword resonance instantly rang through the four directions. In a trance, [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] and the perfected lords of the four directions all saw an illusion.
They saw a precious sword.
A precious sword with gilded cracks, yet never broken.
[Unyielding Sword Intent]!
The more adverse the situation, the greater the power of this sword intent!
Almost simultaneously, inside the Sword Pavilion, Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon also erupted with his aura. Without hesitation, the [Sword Dao Fruit] fully blessed it over.
But this wasn't the limit yet.
[Sword Dao Fruit]!
Besides the one futilely attained by Perfected One Vanquishing-Demon, Lu Yang had one himself. Dual Dao Fruit blessing instantly pushed his sword qi to the extreme.
Almost simultaneously, [Inscribing Heavenly Chapters] lit up.
[Sword Dao Fruit enhancement of Titled Sword Intent shall be increased to a hundredfold]!
A hundredfold—this was Lu Yang's limit, not the limit of [Inscribing Heavenly Chapters]. Given time, as his cultivation base grew higher, the restrictions would only become fewer.
But right now, it's enough.
Facing [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer]'s Immortal Method, Lu Yang's response was simple: Since I can't defend, then attack! Attack with the strongest power!
This is the supreme Dao Fruit.
When he needed methods, he had methods. When he needed strength, even if his cultivation was not enough, he could use methods to make up for it.
The defining feature was sheer shamelessness..
In the next second, Lu Yang struck with his sword.
Almost simultaneously, a visible sword scar appeared on the curtain of the sky, forcing all Dao Fruits of the four directions to retreat and starlight to hide!
Long before that, [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] had already set a hand seal, wanting to select a possibility where she was unscathed to dodge this sword.
However, the feedback result was:
No such possibility?
[Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer] was stunned, then quickly lowered her standard: No need to be unscathed. Taking minor injuries to dodge this sword will do.
Karmic feedback— Absolutely impossible.
...Take heavy injuries, dodge this sword!
Absolutely impossible.
For a moment, [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer]'s beautiful face turned pale. Because all karma, countless possibilities, in the end all pointed to the same ending:
"Slash!"
In an instant, all phenomena fell silent.
Dazzling sword light engulfed everything, ignoring all method. Crushing with absolute power in near-total domination, it shattered [Bodhisattva Precious Lotus Hidden Subduer]!
