Chapter 155: Chapter 120: Revive a Legendary? Slay the Soul Suppressing

Trying to cover for something, Soul Suppressing immediately spoke up. "What tricks are you playing? The Saint Master has no time for your games! Everyone, attack! Keep all three of them here!"

"This is the perfect opportunity! If we get rid of these three, we can unite the world under Saint Master Yang’s leadership!"

The other Demon Sects looked tempted, but it was also true that Soul Suppressing and Saint Master Yang had just completely ignored the bizarre experiment Lu Changfeng had proposed.

Lu Changfeng fanned the flames. "If you can both successfully recite the poem, what’s to stop me from willingly giving up the position of Saint Master?"

At this, the gazes of the other Demon Sects all fell upon Yang Jingtian and Soul Suppressing.

The tables had turned, yet Soul Suppressing suddenly grew calm.

"You despicable thief, you certainly know how to put on an act. Saint Master Yang, why don’t I let you see the forged mark on him and judge for yourself?"

Yang Jingtian frowned. "This boy has a Saint Master’s mark as well?"

"Yes," Soul Suppressing said with a nod. "If it’s fake, I’d like you to determine its authenticity."

Yang Jingtian nodded. "Very well. Boy, show me the mark on your body. If it is truly a Saint Master’s mark, I will naturally recognize it."

Soul Suppressing, playing two roles at once, had just kicked the ball back to him.

Lu Changfeng spread his hands, and the Saint Master’s mark on his forehead lit up once more.

Confusion appeared on Yang Jingtian’s face. "Its appearance and aura... they seem no different from the real thing. Boy, draw out the power within it for us to see."

Lu Changfeng smiled. "You really want to see it?"

"Of course," Yang Jingtian nodded. "I too have activated the power within the mark before. I will be able to identify it."

"Fine, then I’ll let you see!"

Lu Changfeng aimed at Yang Jingtian and activated the mark on his forehead.

To the side, the Soul Suppressing Demon Sect retreated, an ecstatic look spreading across his face. The only thing he had been wary of was the Saint Master’s mark on Lu Changfeng’s forehead!

Judging by Lu Changfeng’s track record since his debut, he had never used the power within the Saint Master’s mark.

The Soul Suppressing Demon Sect knew just how powerful it was—forget a Primordial Spirit Body, it could even instantly kill a True Spirit Body! Not even a Celestial Spirit Body could escape completely unscathed!

And now, this power was finally going to be used up!

’This Lu Changfeng must think that Yang Jingtian or the lotus is the real body, when in fact, they’re nothing more than puppets!’

Just as the Soul Suppressing Demon Sect was reveling in his inner joy, the corner of Lu Changfeng’s mouth suddenly lifted. He whipped his head around, and the mark locked onto the Soul Suppressing Demon Sect.

"Hm?" The Soul Suppressing Demon Sect wore a confused expression.

Then, he felt an utterly terrifying power bearing down on him.

Lu Changfeng activated the power within the mark between his brows.

Streams of terrifying white Saber Energy formed a saber domain that shot out in an instant. It enveloped its target—the Soul Suppressing Demon Sect—and the Saber Energy erupted in a brilliant flash of white light.

When the white light faded, nothing remained where the Soul Suppressing Demon Sect had stood but a ten-meter-wide scorch mark.

The Soul Suppressing Demon Sect had clearly been obliterated, turned to ash.

The power from the mark, once activated, demonstrated remarkable control over its area of effect.

None of the power leaked out to harm Lu Changfeng or anyone else.

To kill the Soul Suppressing Demon Sect in a single blow, Lu Changfeng had used more than half of the energy within the mark.

When the mark faded away again, it was clearly much dimmer.

The Soul Suppressing Demon Sect was dead. It was just a shame about all the Martial Talents and Bloodline Talents he had possessed.

But it was worth it.

The Soul Suppressing Demon Sect’s abilities were simply too bizarre.

He even managed to take control of the Sect Leader and the previous Saint Master for his own use.

Who knew what other trump cards he had up his sleeve.

An instant kill, eliminating the threat once and for all, was the perfect solution.

The Demon Sects present had yet to react.

On the Purple Lotus, Yang Jingtian suddenly closed his eyes.

(Soul Parasite) once again became (Soul Loss).

Seeing this, the Demon Sects present finally understood that Lu Changfeng had been telling the truth.

They also understood why Lu Changfeng had aimed the mark at the Soul Suppressing Demon Sect.

"Saint Master! We were foolish! We beg for your forgiveness!"

The Blood Saber Demon Sect led the way, dropping to one knee to beg for pardon!

The Gluttony Demon Sect and Bone-Eroding Demon Sect quickly followed suit, kneeling to beg for pardon.

Only Xuansha remained standing with his hands pressed together, while Purple Dragon stood behind Lu Changfeng with a smug look on his face.

Xuansha had been Lu Changfeng’s supporter from beginning to end.

And Purple Dragon had been personally trained by Lu Changfeng; his loyalty was beyond question.

"Enough. That fiend Soul Suppressing’s methods were insidious. It’s only natural that you were all deceived."

"Just don’t let there be a next time," Lu Changfeng said slowly.

"The rest of you, leave us," Lu Changfeng said, gesturing for the Demon Sects to withdraw.

"You two, go wait for me outside as well."

Only then did Xuansha and Purple Dragon withdraw together.

Lu Changfeng, holding the Ancient Fire Qilin, slowly walked to the base of the Purple Lotus.

Although Yang Jingtian had lost his Soul, his physical body was not destroyed.

’What could be the reason?’

The Purple Lotus constantly flickered with purple light, filled with vitality.

A sudden thought struck Lu Changfeng. He reached into his stomach, opened the Ba Snake Space, and took out a sheet of letter paper.

As expected, the letter paper in Lu Changfeng’s hand pulsed and new text materialized on it.

[Congratulations, you’ve resolved the crisis.]

Lu Changfeng frowned slightly and spoke softly, "Are you the main body of the Purple Lotus Demon? Are you the Sect Leader? What exactly is your situation right now?"

The letter paper pulsed quickly, new lines of text appearing in succession. [I am a remnant soul of the Sect Leader. Most of my Soul was stolen by Soul Suppressing, so I have lost most of my abilities.]

[When I communicated with you this morning, Soul Suppressing detected it and brutally suppressed me.]

[Now that Soul Suppressing is dead, I have only just regained my freedom.]

[But unfortunately, I have lost 99% of my abilities.]

[Now I am merely a wisp of a remnant soul, unable to take human form. Besides the ability to observe and manifest text on the Bloodline Seeds I previously split off, I can’t even control myself to create new ones.]

Lu Changfeng frowned slightly. ’That’s a real shame. The Ancient Purple Lotus Demon was a pure-blooded member of the Demon Race. In its prime, it would have been a powerful aide to the Saint Master.’

’Still, the Purple Lotus Demon isn’t completely useless. Its current abilities are still somewhat helpful.’

"How many marks on the letter papers can you sense in total right now? Er, I mean the things you call Bloodline Seeds."

The once-great Ancient Purple Lotus Demon, its soul stolen, could now only communicate through letter paper.

The text on the paper changed. [There are still three hundred sixty-six Observation Seeds and twenty-three Letter Paper Seeds.]

"You can tell where they are, right?"

[Yes.]

"Good. Next, help me retrieve all the Letter Paper Seeds."

’As long as I protect the Purple Lotus Demon’s main body, this thing will be an excellent tool for long-distance communication.’

’And as for those Observation Seeds, I’ll have to figure out a good way to use them.’

Lu Changfeng looked at the giant purple lotus. ’Right now, this thing is basically a soulless body... like someone in a vegetative state. No, wait, it was originally a plant that became a demon, so I can’t really call it a vegetable.’

’I wonder if I can put the Purple Lotus Demon into the Ba Snake Space in this state.’

’If I can, that would make things so much easier.’

Lu Changfeng pulled open his stomach, about to put the Purple Lotus Demon inside.

Suddenly, he saw Yang Jingtian.

"Can Yang Jingtian be revived?"

[He cannot be revived. His body, like mine, has fallen into a permanent slumber. The day I die, he will die too.]

"How long can you live?"

[A few thousand years? Tens of thousands? I don’t know how long I can live in this state. I’m just a remnant soul, not even a tenth of the original. My power is very weak, and my memories are very limited.]

"Alright." Lu Changfeng looked at the words on the letter paper and rubbed his forehead. "I’m going to move you into an empty dimension now. If you can’t handle it, tell me immediately."

[Understood.]

Seeing the text, Lu Changfeng immediately grabbed the bodies of the Purple Lotus Demon and Yang Jingtian and stuffed them into the Ba Snake Space in his stomach.

A moment later, Lu Changfeng asked, "Can you hear me? Any problems?"

The letter paper changed, and two words appeared: [No problem].

Lu Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief. This way, the Purple Lotus Demon could hear him speak at any time.

As long as someone was holding a letter paper, no matter how far away they were, he could instantly transmit a message to them through the Purple Lotus Demon’s ability.
