Just a Useful Pawn in the Stain Sect

Even in the Immortal Pivot, the Pure Land was quite revolting to deal with. After all, Bhagavat’s Unity was truly too outrageous. Even Golden Core Perfected Lords were quite wary of it, and under normal circumstances, they were unwilling to make enemies with the Pure Land.

Therefore, when Lü Yang raised this suspicion, many Perfected Lords began to ponder. They then astonishingly realized that Minor Metal’s method of advancing to a True Demon indeed shared a similar profoundness with the Pure Land. Especially that Erase the Self Ability. Wasn’t this just Unity! It was only more overbearing. Unity merely molded you into Bhagavat’s shape, but the True Demon directly caused your obliteration.

This was highly suspicious.

Of course, this had been planned by Lü Yang all along. When he initially created the He-Transformed Heart Demon Scripture and stitched together the World Honored One’s Method, he had prepared to shift the blame. Coincidentally, he also had a grudge against the Pure Land.

Seeing that some were wavering, Lü Yang immediately struck while the iron was hot, "Besides, it seems only the Pure Land didn’t show up this time, right? In my eyes, it must be because they have a guilty conscience!

"Not showing up means a guilty conscience, a guilty conscience means admission, and admission means it’s a fact!"

In short, it was all due to the Pure Land Buddhist Cultivators’ desire to destroy him. Immortal Lord Lü was pure as ice and clean as jade, righteous and honorable, and had absolutely nothing to do with this matter!

At this moment, World Purger Fei Xue also spoke up.

"So that’s how it is," she said angrily with a stern face. "I knew my disciple, Minor Metal, wasn’t the kind of evil entity to inexplicably practice some Heart Demon method.

"It turns out the Pure Land is plotting in the dark!"

In the next second, she looked at True Monarch Gangxing and demanded, "The Pure Land is a member of the Righteous Dao, and the Sword Pavilion is the Leader of the Righteous Path. You must give me an explanation for this matter!"

True Monarch Gangxing was utterly dumbfounded. What an animal! He finally saw through it. What Pure Land? This was clearly the Stain Sect putting on a double act with him here, and they surprisingly turned around to pin the blame on him!

However, before he could speak to mock them, he saw World Purger Fei Xue look at Lü Yang and change the subject, "However, Daoist, if you hadn’t created the Heart Demon, the Pure Land wouldn’t have found an opening to frame you. My Stain Sect even lost a Perfected Person at Foundation Establishment Perfection because of this. This is indeed your fault."

Hearing this, Lü Yang cupped his hands and said with a sincere expression, "What you say is very true, Daoist. To tell you the truth, although the Heart Demon was proven by me, I have always felt guilty for the harm it brought to the world.

"Therefore, I have been painstakingly studying a method to break it over these years.

"Now, I have finally achieved some success. I have Three Thunder Techniques that I can teach widely to the world. Anyone who cultivates my Thunder Skill will have the ability of Exorcism and Protection of the Dao."

"That is wonderful!" World Purger Fei Xue nodded.

Not only that, but the other Perfected Lords present also revealed tempted expressions upon hearing this. After all, no one wanted Zhengde’s fate to befall them.

Only True Monarch Gangxing’s expression remained gloomy. He thought, "With this coordinated act, they actually managed to gloss over the matter of the True Demon. He even proactively threw out a method to break the Heart Demon, making everyone else play dumb. Under these circumstances, pursuing the matter further would only bring disgrace upon myself."

Thinking of this, he could only sigh. Fortunately, he was also a genius at playing dumb. After adjusting his mindset, he quickly went along with the flow, "Oh? I wonder what Thunder Skill it is. Can you take it out for us to see?"

"Of course."

Seeing this, Lü Yang immediately smiled, knowing that the time for his pitch had arrived. He instantly condensed his Spiritual perception, which then scattered and transformed into numerous books and scrolls. The Perfected Lords immediately focused their eyes to look, only to see that the covers of the books were exactly the same:

[Five-Thunder Celestial Heart Technique]

However, soon after, the group of Perfected Lords frowned one after another. True Monarch Gangxing looked at Lü Yang and said in a deep voice, "This is not a method for Exorcism and Protection of the Dao.

"Observing this method, it seems to use one’s Heart Spirit to sense an inexplicable place, and then invite a foreign object’s Spiritual nature to possess the body in order to execute the Demon-Breaking Technique. Afterwards, it requires the consumption of vitality, Mana, and even Spiritual perception to offer as a tribute. Furthermore, the stronger the invited spirit, the greater the price of the subsequent tribute."

How was this Exorcism and Protection of the Dao? This was clearly collecting protection money! The Sword Pavilion did exactly this in the South. Therefore, True Monarch Gangxing was very familiar with this routine and immediately saw through the sinister intentions behind it.

However, Lü Yang’s smile remained, "Daoist, you misunderstand. Mainly, the demon-breaking method is not a simple Magic, but rather it is borrowing my Fruit Position Profound Mysterious. Therefore, no one besides me can learn it.

"And the act of inviting a spirit to possess the body in the Five-Thunder Celestial Heart Technique is actually inviting my Profound Mysterious. I will assist them in clearing the Heart Demon affliction across space. However, the consumption of casting Magic across space cannot all be borne by me alone, right? So asking for a little travel expense is a very normal thing."

"Travel expense?" True Monarch Gangxing sneered. How could he not understand? Compared to this ’travel expense,’ if the consumption of casting Magic across space accounted for even thirty percent, it would mean Lü Yang had a conscience. He feared it wouldn’t even be thirty percent!

Seeing this, Lü Yang turned a deaf ear to it and continued on his own, "Besides this, I originate from Beyond the Heavens after all, and the Dao Lineage I passed down, the Righteous Qi Dao, was also just recently established. Now, it lacks a large amount of Spiritual Materials for construction.

"To tell you the truth, the Five-Thunder Celestial Heart Technique takes the Righteous Qi Dao as its core. Only in this way can it sense me, and only then can I cast Magic across space to help people break the Heart Demon. Therefore, if this method is to be effective, I also need you Daoists to provide me with a batch of Upper Grade Spiritual Materials. This is the specific list..."

True Monarch Gangxing laughed out of anger. Lü Yang’s speech was sheer nonsense from beginning to end, entirely a fabricated excuse just to extort a batch of Spiritual Materials from his hands!

"Since you have no sincerity, Daoist, then there is no need to talk."

Speaking up to here, Lü Yang’s face even revealed a disgusting look of grievance, "How do I not have sincerity? Fellow Daoist Gang Xing, being righteous and honorable is my code of conduct.

"For the common people of the world, I can endure any hardship.

"But I just don’t understand.

"We are all doing the affairs of the Righteous Dao, so why is it that whoever does the most suffers the greatest grievance? Why are you holding onto these few Spiritual Materials and refusing to let go?"

As his voice fell, True Monarch Gangxing did not get angry, but instead revealed a peculiar expression. He thought, "These words... why does it sound like my Sword Pavilion?"

As a Sword Pavilion Great True Monarch, no one understood the Sword Pavilion’s style better than him. Moreover, unlike the disciples below, most Sword Pavilion disciples under the level of a Perfected Lord had already taken that routine seriously, but Sword Pavilion True Monarchs were actually very clear-headed.

Especially True Monarch Gangxing. He understood very well in his heart that the so-called Sword Pavilion style actually highlighted being shameless, using shameless methods to fight for massive rights and benefits for themselves. The shamelessness here was not simply not caring about face, but a more extreme logic. This, paired with the Sword Pavilion’s own strength, allowed the Sword Pavilion to suppress the Dao Court and the Pure Land, becoming the current Leader of the Righteous Path. Strictly speaking, this was actually a method of development.

However, now, he had met someone just as shameless as himself. What was worse was that the other party’s strength was also very powerful. This made things awkward.

Therefore, after a moment of silence, True Monarch Gangxing did not choose to continue debating. Instead, he coldly snorted, then directly turned around and left, riding on his Flying Light. Once the Sword Pavilion left, the Dao Court naturally didn’t dare to stay much longer either.

Seeing this, Lü Yang’s smile remained unchanged, but in his heart, he had already noted everything down in his little black book. He thought, "Just you wait. Someday soon, I’ll have Master Chong Guang make trouble for you! You don’t want to pay protection money now? When you deeply suffer the torment of the True Demon and come begging me, it won’t be this price anymore!"

A moment later, the Perfected Lords present had mostly withdrawn, leaving only Lü Yang, as well as World Purger Fei Xue and True Monarch Zeng Cai Qiluo from the Stain Sect.

Only at this time did World Purger Fei Xue reveal a smile, "Won’t you invite me in to sit for a while, Daoist?"

Lü Yang readily agreed and immediately stepped aside. He also smiled and said, "Daoist, you condescend to visit, bringing light to the Profound Spirit Realm. I naturally welcome you with utmost pleasure."
