Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 1289 Attack in groups

Time stands still, and all is still.

Seeing Lü Yang charging towards him with his finger without any hesitation, Chu Sheng's eyes showed no emotion, only an indifference as ruthless as a supreme being.

It can't be stopped.

If determination were useful, he would have become a god long ago. In the face of absolute power, so-called determination and will are nothing but the barking of a defeated dog.

The next second, the First Saint took a step back, and in the process, his figure suddenly split into two. One of his figures continued to point a finger at Lü Yang, while the other figure strolled leisurely, turned around, and walked straight towards the Sword Lord, heading towards the River of Destiny.

The present and the future are no longer distinct at this moment.

This was an extremely mysterious method, even beyond the comprehension of the Dao Lords. Only Dao Tianqi, with his eyes gleaming with wisdom, saw through it.

'Time.'

At this moment, as the First Sage continued his journey, the scene of "Lu Yang being killed by him with a single finger" had become a thing of the past, and he was now moving towards the future.

"We can't let him get past!"

Once the First Saint completes this journey and arrives before the Sword Lord, the "death of Lü Yang" will be firmly anchored, becoming an unchangeable past.

Therefore, the key now is not to stop the First Sage from approaching the Sword Lord, but to stop the First Sage from killing Lü Yang. As long as the past is not anchored, the future will inevitably regress. In that case, even if the First Sage reaches the Sword Lord and kills him, the past has no cause, and the future will hardly have a result.

Upon realizing this, Dao Tianqi immediately took action.

However, when he tried to make a move, he found that all his skills were completely ineffective against the scene of "the First Saint killing Lü Yang".

Time has been divided!

Because this scene was moved to the past, present methods cannot interfere. To interfere, one must use mystical means of the same level!

Now that the cause and effect have been broken, only the Sword Lord can do something similar.

And what about Sword Lord?

Dao Tianqi turned his gaze and discovered that the Sword Lord, who had also realized the methods of the Initial Saint, was also trying to activate [Fate] to save Lü Yang, who was about to be killed.

But all the great power was blocked by the First Saint who walked towards her.

That is the primordial saint of the present.

To interfere with the past, one must go back to the present, but the current Sage stands there, directly blocking the Sword Lord's path to rescue!
At the same time, Lü Yang also witnessed this scene.

The raging flames of his primordial spirit allowed him to clearly see all the changes in that instant, and to understand the life-or-death crisis he was facing at that moment.

We can't count on other people's help.

At this moment, he can only rely on himself!
'Escape? It's useless. I can't escape. My past is already here. Once the past is erased, what's the point of talking about the present or the future?'

In a flash, Lü Yang considered many possible solutions, but in the end he only did one thing: summon the Heavenly Palace and then hide inside it.

'I refuse to believe you can shatter my path to enlightenment with a single finger!'

"Boom!"

The next second, the First Saint's finger landed on the [Heavenly Palace], and in an instant the palace collapsed, and the many pavilions and towers seemed unable to stop this finger.

But that's all.

Just after shattering the Jade Capital, breaking through the Lingxiao Palace, and storming into the Mi Luo Palace, the First Saint's fingers touched a dazzling, blood-red light.

【Revolutionary Revolution】!
The unchangeable "destiny" suddenly showed signs of fluctuation at this moment, and the past scene that was about to be anchored also rippled like water.

"boom!"

The next instant, the shadow of the past vanished.

Almost simultaneously, the First Saint, who had already walked up to the Sword Lord, also raised an eyebrow and then shattered in sync, thus obliterating the vision of the future.

If time could be reversed, all things would be vanity.

All the mysterious radiance was kneaded into a ball until darkness emerged from the trance and swallowed everything, only then did the scene in the trance reappear.

The First Sage remained standing in the same spot.

The battle just now seemed as if it had never happened, merely an illusion of the past and future; the present remained exactly as it was before the battle. "...Variable."

Chu Sheng nodded slightly: "Just like Ting You back then, but [Variable] seems to have learned from the lessons of that year and has protected you from the very beginning."

"It must be [the remnant consciousness of a celestial being]."

The First Saint didn't seem very curious about the origins of Lü Yang, this Dao Lord who appeared out of nowhere; to be precise, he felt he had already guessed the truth.

Seeing this, Lü Yang also understood.

'He misunderstood.'

'This old beast seems to regard me as a cultivator who, driven by unforeseen circumstances, grew up under his nose through the [Remnant Consciousness of a Celestial Being].'

Actually, when you think about it carefully, it makes a lot of sense.

Is it related to the concept of "si sui" (司祟)? That's normal, it's from the "Qi Wu Lun" (齐物论).

Is there any connection with Dao Tianqi? That's normal, considering he's related to the Emperor.

While the probability isn't high, it's not entirely impossible either. After all, someone who can be driven by variables must be an unparalleled genius.

For example, the former Patriarch Tingyou.

Now that things have come to this, there are very few things in the world that can be hidden from Lü Yang, including the origins of Ancestor Tingyou, which he has figured out after a little deduction.

Back then, Dao Tianqi built the Underworld.

The various Dao Lords intervened, severely damaging the Underworld. Dao Tianqi collapsed midway through his cultivation and fell into a deep sleep.

His profound wisdom was also severely diminished during his slumber due to the deliberate targeting by the First Sage, causing him to fall into the Netherworld Reincarnation and become a variable in the world.

These Dao wisdoms did not possess Dao Tianqi's consciousness; at most, they carried a few traces of cause and effect. Thus, they scattered throughout the cycle of reincarnation, creating one genius cultivator after another.

Master Tingyou is one example, and Mu Changsheng is another.

They had no relation to Dao Tianqi, but they inherited Dao Hui's legacy. There were actually quite a few similar beings during the long period after Dao Tianqi fell into slumber.

However, the vast majority of them were nipped in the bud by the Dao Lord, and they didn't even get to start cultivating.

'This method of diminishing Dao Hui is extremely insidious. That's why, without my intervention, Dao Tianqi would truly never have awakened until his death.'

Lu Yang felt a chill run down his spine.

Meanwhile, Chu Sheng continued, "I thought Ting You was the most amazing one, but I didn't expect there was another one hiding."

After saying that, he looked at Lü Yang, his eyes rippling with emotion.

"You're good."

"Perhaps it can replace Wanbao's position."

After he finished speaking, a long river appeared, turbulent and roaring, flowing with the cause and effect of time, and containing endless brilliance in the torrent.

Time!
This great road was magnificent and vast, surpassing all other Dao Lords, encompassing Xu Ming, and thus swallowing up everyone present!

At this moment, time is divided.

Lu Yang looked around and found that all the other Dao Lords had disappeared, leaving him alone standing in the void, surrounded by a hazy light.

It's not just him.

Sword Lord, Cang Hao, Wan Fa, Du Xuan, Dao Tian Qi—all of them were separated by the First Saint and placed into different times.

The most troublesome Sword Lord and Wanfa have fallen into the future.

Cang Hao and Du Xuan, who could cooperate with them, were placed in the present.

Lü Yang and Guang Hai were thrown into the past.

'.Um?'

In an instant, Lü Yang's expression changed drastically. Only one person was released, someone who was not in this river of time; he was the true target of the First Saint.

Dao Tian Qi!
