Lu Yang's feelings toward Sky Soaring had always been complicated. After all, this Great True Lord had cast an immense psychological shadow over him back then.
He had always kept score.
He had also thought of many ways to deal with Sky Soaring—for instance, using Divine Firmament Thunder to transform into Covered Lamp Fire and reverse Chen Earth, making him fall from the rank of Great True Lord.
Yet the facts proved it was useless.
Divine Firmament Thunder could indeed alter Images and reproduce every profound Image of Covered Lamp Fire, but in the end, it was not the genuine article of the Immortal Pivot.
What was a genuine article?
The genuine Fruit Position of the Immortal Pivot was connected to its Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, like a vast net that turned the entire Immortal Pivot into an impregnable fortress.
The principle behind Covered Lamp Fire reversing Chen Earth was founded upon this great net, and Sky Soaring was the same. But Lu Yang was different. Divine Firmament Thunder belonged wholly to him; it was detached from the Immortal Pivot and bound to neither the Heavenly Stems nor Earthly Branches. Thus, no matter how it transformed, it could not affect Chen Earth.
So there were only two paths if he wanted to deal with Sky Soaring.
First, help Hongyun achieve Golden Seeking. Only after he achieved Golden Seeking and attained Covered Lamp Fire could he reverse Chen Earth and make Sky Soaring fall from his position as a Great True Lord.
This was also the best method.
Unfortunately, because the First Generation Monster-Rearing Peak Master had awakened ahead of time in this life, Variables had sprung up one after another. Sky Soaring had decisively abandoned the Netherworld, cutting off that path.
Thus, only the second path remained:
*Fight him!
