Chapter 117: The Holy Sect Indeed Produces Talent in Every Generation

The formation on the wilderness was not advanced; Lu Yang took one look and saw it did not even reach Seventh Grade, its only effects being Qi Observation and Shadow Revelation.

Rather than being used to protect oneself, this formation was better described as a tool for locating enemies.

Lu Yang made no deliberate effort to conceal his qi fluctuation, so the moment he and Qin Tianhe arrived, the formation immediately activated, casting a beam of formation light toward the two of them.

At the same time, dozens of gazes fell upon Lu Yang.

Seeing this, Lu Yang's eyebrows rose slightly, for he discovered that the owners of these gazes seemed very different from the Holy Sect disciples in the Sea of Connecting Clouds.

For within those gazes lay scrutiny, caution, and even ferocity... but no fear.

However, Lu Yang soon realized the truth.

This was normal.

On the battlefield between the Righteous and the Demonic, there were not so many rules; Foundation Establishment experts attacking those in Qi Condensation and acts lacking martial virtue were common occurrences; those who felt fear had long since died.

All that remained were a group of audacious individuals.

With a single sweep of his eyes, Lu Yang could even see many disciples silently taking elixirs, regulating their breath, and treating their injuries, yet without a shred of complaint or dejection.

Occasionally hearing snippets of conversation mentioning that acquaintances had been surrounded and killed, these Holy Sect disciples remained completely unconcerned, even laughing loudly.

Clearly, regarding the matter of the Holy Sect being jointly besieged and suppressed by the Dao Court and the Pure Land, let alone Qingcheng Qingcheng Feixue True Person outside, even the Holy Sect disciples themselves did not care much; being killed only proved insufficient strength—look at us, those with true strength, did we not fight our way to survival?

If you are weak, practice more; if you cannot handle the game, do not play.

On the other side, Qin Tianhe also appeared accustomed to the scene, casually beckoning a Holy Sect disciple over to ask, "Where is Xu Xin? Is he still alive?"

"... e is still alive."

That disciple replied, leading the two deeper into the formation, where a fair-skinned, red-lipped youth was waving his arms at the crowd:

"Everyone, we must unite!"

"Two core disciples have already been killed; if we do not unite now, we will only be defeated one by one. Do you wish to die in this wretched place?"

"If you do not wish to die, then accept my leadership!"

"As long as you follow my orders, at least thirty percent of us will survive. I also believe all Holy Sect disciples are my brothers and will surely be willing to cooperate with me."

Before the youth could finish speaking, a disciple in the Late Stage of Qi Condensation suddenly spoke up with a tone of disdain: "Follow your leadership? Where does that leave Senior Brother Chongming? Senior Brother Chongming is the blood descendant of Master Master Chongguang, and his strength is beyond doubt; even if someone must lead, it should be him."

Pfft!

Before that disciple could finish his sentence, a palm had already struck his chest, sending him flying horizontally; upon landing, he vomited blood incessantly.

Only after doing all this did the youth calmly wipe his hand:

"Those unwilling to cooperate are not my brothers."

"Xu Xin, you are seeking death!"

On the other side, a spirited young man instantly flew into a rage; a sword pill suddenly appeared out of thin air, exploding into a magnificent sword rainbow that swept across the youth's body.

"Young Master, others may indulge you, but do you think I will?"

Xu Xin's figure vanished instantly, dodging the slashing sword light, and then he confronted the youth named Chongming, killing intent surfacing in his eyes.

Meanwhile, two people nearby remained completely unconcerned, instead wearing excited smiles as if watching a spectacle.

"... top this at once!"

Seeing this, Qin Tianhe immediately shouted, then without another word stepped aside, placing Lu Yang in front: "Who dares to act presumptuously before a True Person!?"

At these words, the atmosphere changed abruptly.

"A True Person? Impossible!"

"Tianhe? Are you joking?"

"Who is the True Person?"

In an instant, everyone's gaze fixed squarely on Lu Yang; initially carrying a hint of scrutiny, it soon underwent a subtle shift.

Especially Xu Xin, whose expression changed slightly.

He had once seen Lu Yang together with Qin Tianhe, witnessing firsthand how Lu Yang calmed Shouheng Sea with a single breath; naturally, he was now utterly shocked.

He really is fucking in Foundation Establishment!?

Thinking this, Xu Xin immediately reined in his magic power, then walked respectfully to stand before Lu Yang: "Disciple Xu Xin pays his respects to the Holy Sect's High True One."

As for the others, although they had never seen Lu Yang, they were not blind; even though Lu Yang had not asked Sunü to bless him at this moment, the status accumulated from his pile of great divine abilities was still beyond their reach, a similar sensation they had only felt from the strongest among the few core disciples.

In an instant, the atmosphere relaxed considerably.

At the same time, Lu Yang looked toward the handsome youth who had just confronted Xu Xin; surprisingly, he had actually met the other once before.

However, not in this life, but in the life before the last.

'Back then, when I went to the Dharma Refining Secret Realm to cultivate the Sage's Theft, there was a core disciple ahead of me who failed in his cultivation; that core disciple was him!'

Chongming, the son of True Person Master Chongguang?

Before coming, Qin Tianhe had already roughly introduced to him the core disciples participating in this Battle for the Dao, including their personalities.

According to him, although Chongming was the son of True Person Master Chongguang, he most hated being called a second-generation immortal, always wanting to rely on his own cultivation, and had even publicly declared he would surpass True Person Master Chongguang through his own effort and talent; to this, most of the Holy Sect's core disciples had only one evaluation:

A fool worthy of envy.

Immediately after, he looked at Xu Xin; without a doubt, this was a tiger with a smiling face, calling someone brother one second and attacking them the next.

Moreover, this person's audacity was ridiculously large.

No matter how one looked at it, Chongming was the direct blood descendant of a Great True Person at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment, yet he dared to openly rebuke him, and beyond merely attacking, he even harbored killing intent.

To describe him as a madman was not an exaggeration in the slightest.

As for the two core disciples who had not spoken since the beginning and had been watching the show, one was male and the other female.

The male had no name; even Qin Tianhe only knew his Daoist title as "Jiaolong," while the female was named Bi Feiyuan, a core disciple from Senior Butian Peak.

Having escaped the surrounding slaughter, their strength was naturally not weak.

Daoist Jiaolong came from Beast-Rearing Peak, one of the four inner sect peaks.

His life's greatest dream was to transform himself into a dragon; thus, after joining Beast-Rearing Peak, he spent nearly every day transplanting beast parts onto his own body.

According to his theory, since the true dragon has nine aspects, in other words, if he could gather all nine types of spirit beasts representing the nine aspects of the true dragon into his own body, he could use this to break through Foundation Establishment and transform into a true dragon; therefore, beneath his seemingly normal body actually lay components entirely made of spirit beasts.

A typical lunatic.

As for Bi Feiyuan, she was equally renowned.

Judging by appearance alone, Bi Feiyuan was a beautiful woman of sixteen, her curvaceous delicate body draped only in a layer of thin gauze, her rosy flesh clearly visible.

If it were only this, it would not amount to much.

Senior Butian Peak was, after all, quite normal.

What truly made her stand out from countless Holy Sect disciples and ascend to core disciple status was a great divine ability she primarily cultivated, named "Desire Sea Demon-Sowing Heart."

As the name suggests, this great divine ability would cause anyone who harbored lustful thoughts toward her to suffer qi deviation.

Therefore, Bi Feiyuan dressed so revealingly; whenever she fought, her first move was to boldly tear open her clothes and engage the enemy in bare-chested combat.

The effect could be described as a mass-destruction weapon.

Without a doubt, this was a formidable bitch.

Oh right, there was also Qin Tianhe.

He was a slacker.

Thinking of this, Lu Yang could not help but sigh.

Looking around at the fools, madmen, lunatics, and bitches... in such a vast Holy Sect, could there not be a second good person as normal as himself?
