At the heart of Skull Mountain, Lu Yang sat cross-legged in silent meditation, the Ten Thousand Spirit Banner in hand and a host of ghosts surrounding him. He made no attempt to conceal the aura of Qi Refining Great Perfection.
Immediately afterward, a streak of Radiance shone into Yama Hall.
The light condensed into human form, and Yin Mountain Daoist stepped out. Astonishment filled his face as his gaze locked directly onto Lu Yang, while he secretly calculated Karma.
Then he froze.
This time, Lu Yang had not deliberately concealed his Karma. On the contrary, he had proactively revealed most of it, leaving True Person Yinshan deeply shocked.
"You are... Lu Yang?"
By his calculations, Lu Yang had entered the sect barely more than a decade ago, yet his cultivation had already reached Qi Refining Great Perfection. That was still understandable, perhaps—but to have cultivated a great divine ability at such a young age was simply a fantasy, something an ordinary grassroots disciple could never achieve!
After a moment of silence, True Person Yinshan reached precisely the same conclusion as in his previous life:
"May I ask, fellow Daoist, which True Person of our Sacred Sect have you reincarnated from?"
Lu Yang: "..."
Before Lu Yang could respond, Patriarch Tingyou emerged behind him and sneered. "What Sacred Sect True Person? He is the inheritor of my Witch Ghost Sect!"
"Witch Ghost Sect?"
True Person Yinshan was startled again. He looked at Patriarch Tingyou and calculated for a while longer before saying in surprise, "Ting You? The last sect master of the Witch Ghost Sect?"
"The sixth generation, not the last!" Patriarch Tingyou spoke again, clearly displeased by the title "last." He said coldly, "My Witch Ghost Sect has endured for a thousand years, and its inheritance has never been severed.
