Chapter 333: I’m Going to Bully the Weaklings!
“Tribulation Tempest Blade!”
Almost instantly, Lv Yang’s main body at Hidden Sword Manor summoned the Tribulation Tempest Blade and activated Insightful Clarity, flooding himself with its protective effects.
After a tense moment, he exhaled in relief.
“Good. At least my main body should be safe.”
But then—what had just happened? Why did he suddenly feel like he’d forgotten something? Could it be lingering paranoia from his run-ins with the Veil of Cognition, making him see threats everywhere?
“These True Monarchs are disgraceful! They all love picking on weaker foes.”
Lv Yang inhaled deeply, steadying himself. Survival was proof enough his true self hadn’t been exposed. Panic was tactically unwise.
“By all rights, using the Golden String Puppet to control a clone and observe from the sidelines should make me immune to the Veil of Cognition. But no—Ang Xiao is no ordinary foe. Even Suo Huan was toyed with mercilessly. The Golden String Puppet might not be foolproof.”
Still, his main body remained unscathed.
“Stay calm and adapt! As long as my core survives, sacrificing a clone is manageable. At worst, I’ll suffer losses but avoid reincarnation.”
With that thought, Lv Yang channeled the Golden String Puppet again, refocusing on his clone’s perspective.
Meanwhile, the Dangmo True Man retrieved several blank Jade Scrolls, inscribed them with Divine Consciousness, and distributed them to those present.
“What is this?”
Lv Yang swept his Divine Consciousness over the scrolls, finding a Cultivation Technique recorded inside—The Spirit Attunement Scripture—its content eerily familiar.
Realization struck quickly:
“This is a Second-Tier True Cultivation Technique!”
A technique tailored for the Mystic Spirit Realm!
The Dangmo True Man explained, his tone flat, almost indifferent, “This was jointly refined by the Elders. Simple and accessible, all of you should master it swiftly.”
The True Monarchs had reached an agreement: the Mystic Spirit Realm’s treasures would be divided into four portions by emissaries. Competitors could interfere freely during the Spirit Harvesting, with rewards distributed based on the quantity harvested.
Whoever reaped the most spirit energy claimed the largest fragment of the Fruit Position.
This convoluted approach raised eyebrows.
Lv Yang hesitated but stayed silent, letting his clone—Xiu Xin True Man—ask, “Why involve us in such a major matter?”
If the True Monarchs had united, what threat remained? More crucially, this plan shared rewards with Foundation Building cultivators. Given the Monarchs’ pride, why tolerate inferiors?
“Necessity. Though the Mystic Spirit Realm’s Supreme Sovereign was sent to reincarnation, the Fruit Position itself isn’t defenseless. Would it not resist even when facing annihilation?”
“True Monarchs could dominate outright, but resistance would shatter the Fruit Position entirely. We’d gain nothing.”
“Hence, we send Foundation Building cultivators to harvest gradually, weakening the Fruit Position until it’s powerless to resist.”
If before was a feast, now it was slow dining—maximizing gains without waste. The Monarchs didn’t mind tossing crumbs to their subordinates.
“So, Senior, will you enter the realm too?”
“Not possible.” The Dangmo True Man shook his head. “Late-Stage Foundation Building Great True Sovereigns who’ve already connected to the Fruit Position would provoke the Mystic Spirit Realm’s hostility. Only Mid-Stage and Early Foundation Building cultivators can enter.”
Is that true? Lv Yang stroked his chin. Am I considered a Great True Sovereign? Probably not. Strictly speaking, I’m still Early Foundation Building.
His Chifa (Lawkeeper) Divine Essence was dormant, and his Tai Xu Divine Ability occupied no formal slot—how would the Mystic Spirit Realm judge him? If hostility arose from Fruit Position connections, what about the Ten-Thousand Spirit Banner?
This life, his Great True Sovereign status stemmed from the Banner’s mysterious power—possibly a budding No Heaven Realm—not a Fruit Position. Would the Mystic Spirit Realm accept this?
Wait—the Ten-Thousand Spirit Banner was purified by the Ten Thousand Lives Scroll. Cause and effect erased. The Mystic Spirit Realm might not detect it at all!
If undetected…
Within the Mystic Spirit Realm’s fragment, he could masquerade as a Great True Sovereign without triggering a backlash!
Lv Yang’s eyes gleamed.
Does this mean I can punch above my weight?
Even a minute of Great True Sovereign power would let him dominate Mid-Stage or Early Foundation Building foes—crushing them like sheep before a tiger.
“And if the Dangmo True Man speaks true, True Monarchs entering the fragment would provoke the Fruit Position’s wrath, alerting me unless they’re experts at concealment.”
Opportunity knocked!
If his theory held, the Heavenly Fragment was his golden chance.
“Time to slaughter recklessly and loot wildly!”
“Let’s be ruthless. I’ve got nothing to lose.”
“First, erase all traces, then let my puppets—Yun Clan Patriarch and Xiu Xin True Man—announce Sword Pavilion’s victory.”
With both as his Golden String Puppets, he could fabricate any tale: how he sacrificed himself to save Sword Pavilion, earning posthumous glory and securing his place there.
A flawless plan!
“Yu Shao, this mission requires your aid,” the Dangmo True Man said, turning to the Human Immortal Yu Shao, still pale from Cheng Xian’s earlier blow.
A guide was essential for navigating the fragment.
Yu Shao sighed. “I was but a minor official in Heaven. My knowledge may prove limited.”
“Better than nothing. Prioritize your safety,” the Dangmo True Man replied solemnly.
Meanwhile, Lv Yang narrowed his eyes.
What a twist of fortune.
He plunged his Divine Consciousness into the Ten-Thousand Spirit Banner, focusing on a nascent spirit within—Cheng Xian, the Human Immortal!
Compared to Yu Shao, Cheng Xian—Human Immortal and direct disciple of the Mystic Spirit Realm’s Supreme Sovereign—was far more valuable. His knowledge of Heaven’s cosmic workings remained unrivaled.
Excitement brewed.
True Monarchs like Dangmo, Chongguang, Ang Xiao, or the Foundation-Building-Perfection-True-Monarch-level Feixue are too dangerous. I’ll stick to bullying the weaklings!
