Chapter 2945 - 1087: Gu Siblings, Qi Xia’s Ascension (2)
Chapter 2945 - 1087: Gu Siblings, Qi Xia’s Ascension (2)
With each word, the novel succinctly and precisely records how a demonic cultivator, or rather a rogue cultivator, should survive in the harsh Immortal Cultivation World, and the key points to relentlessly climb upwards.
There is both the broad perspective of grand reasoning and the practical details of many operational strategies.
Change appearance, conceal oneself, keep wealth hidden, hold onto trump cards, endure and develop, make decisive actions, trust no one completely, always be vigilant...
"I hope you won’t be chased to the outside of your cave mansion without realizing it again."
Luo Chen sighed softly, placing all the items in front of the sleeping girl on the green stone before leaving wistfully.
Upon leaving the nameless island, Kong Chan approached.
"Master, is that little girl the descendant of an old acquaintance?"
Luo Chen nodded ambiguously, "You could say that!"
Kong Chan was puzzled, "Since Master is willing to come all this way to care for her, why not take her directly back to the Eastern Wasteland, where the immense power of the Luo Tian Sect could protect her?"
Luo Chen shook his head, "That’s not true cultivation."
Kong Chan was stunned; why wouldn’t cultivating within a sect count as true cultivation?
Throughout the world, countless sect cultivators grow in this manner.
Luo Chen did not explain much more.
Everyone has their own path!
For a hundred years, Zhou Qingyu had been under her brother’s protection, never undergoing the trials and tempering, and could never embark on her own path.
She had also cultivated in the Tian Nan Dao Palace for decades, receiving guidance from elders and the sect, which she had already experienced.
Now, Luo Chen had used complex methods to eliminate obstacles in her talent.
If she truly wanted to gain from cultivation, she must endure the hardships and ascend to greater heights.
The Luo Chen of the past was like this, as was the True Master Longyuan of the Tianyuan Daoist Sect; he believed Zhou Qingyu could achieve this as well.
If she couldn’t...
True cultivation also accompanies the threat of death!
"Let’s go!"
...
A day and a night later.
In the earth cave of the nameless island, a long groaning sound was heard.
Zhou Qingyu sat up from the hard green stone, stretching lazily and comfortably.
It had been a long time since she’d slept so soundly.
Upon waking, her whole body felt refreshed, everything felt incredibly relaxed.
Even the injuries from yesterday...
"Injuries?"
Zhou Qingyu was startled, instinctively touching her body, finding those wounds had inexplicably healed, with new skin soft and smooth.
Scanning with her spirit consciousness, she was even more shocked!
Her once damaged and narrow meridians were now wide and smoothly resilient.
The opened acupoints were eagerly absorbing the scattered qi power.
The once turbulent sea of qi had organized into ninefold heavens, layered and stacked like the foundation of the ages.
Within that sea of qi, a jewel with hidden luster rose and fell alongside the surge of spirit power.
It was due to the presence of this treasure bead that the entire sea of qi had changed dramatically.
"This is..." The girl’s body trembled slightly, filled with disbelief, "The Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, it’s my brother’s natal magic item!"
She abruptly regained awareness, her eyes scanning the cave, finding no sign of anyone.
Without concern for anything else, the girl leaped up, flying out of the earth cave, frantically escaping around the nameless island.
But ultimately, she found nothing.
In her memory, by the waking green stone, there were some things left.
In despair but with hope, the girl hurriedly returned.
Elixirs, classics, and a scroll of "Demon Cultivation Secret Record"!
Holding a multitude of things, the girl skimmed through the words swiftly, but never found the content she hoped to see.
Tears unconsciously filled her eyes.
"Is it brother?"
"Since you’ve come, why won’t you see me?"
"Or perhaps, the one who came wasn’t brother, but only left his belon..."
The girl dared not deeply think about that last thought, she was afraid.
Holding the jade slip in a daze, tears fell silently.
Suddenly!
The girl wiped away her tears, an unprecedented firmness radiating from her eyes.
"No matter where my brother is, I will find him!"
"But, I can’t stay here any longer."
Recalling the contents of the jade slip from earlier, she realized how many mistakes she had made and promptly tidied her belongings, leaving the nameless island in haste.
...
"Master, where are we heading next?"
"Since we’ve come to the North Sea, let’s take a trip, and also seek out two old acquaintances."
When mentioning "old acquaintances," Luo Chen’s face rarely showed apprehension.
Kong Chan asked curiously, "Who are they?"
Luo Chen asked in return, "Have you ever heard of the Black Demon?"
Kong Chan paused, then realized.
"Does Master mean the most renowned demonic figure in the North Sea Cultivation World over the past two hundred years?"
Luo Chen nodded slightly.
In the North Sea Cultivation World, since the Demon Alliance Army escaped from Ye Mo Sky, it has been embroiled in continuous warfare.
Countless sect families have been dragged into this turmoil, mired in woe and hardship.
In such a harsh environment, the Demon Path Evil Cultivators thrived, often conducting outrageous acts.
Such deeds as annihilating families, refining souls into banners, or slaying members of the Demon Clan to harvest their blood essence for personal nourishment...
Any imaginable demonic act occurred repeatedly in the North Sea Cultivation World over the past two hundred years.
But amongst the many demonic figures, there was one that shone the brightest!
No one knew their real name, as they were known for wielding a black ceramic pot and acting in an extreme and ruthless manner, hence earning the name Black Demon.
If it were just this, Luo Chen wouldn’t care.
However, the intelligence described the formidable power of that black pot!
Even when several Nascent Soul True Masters from the Tianyuan Daoist Sect joined forces to kill him, he still managed to escape.
Additionally, wherever the Black Demon appeared, there was often another figure — a woman wearing a golden crown, resembling a goddess, which made Luo Chen speculate inevitably.
Black Demon Pot, Golden Crown, Land of Fallen Demons, Ming Zhao Heaven!
During that secret realm exploration years ago, those who passed the inheritance trial were not only Luo Chen and Moon Independent Cultivator.
The most unexpected were two siblings in the Golden Core Realm who successfully passed the trial of the Two Halls of Light and Darkness.
At that time, Luo Chen was also in the Golden Core Realm. After passing the Alchemy Realm trial, he enjoyed the cleansing of Spirit Shaping Holy Water, experiencing a profound change in talent. Moreover, he received the inheritance of the Demon Monarch’s Pill Dao. If nothing unexpected happened, he should have also obtained a spiritual treasure, the Refining Heaven Cauldron, but unfortunately...
It stands to reason that the same Golden Core Realm siblings, after passing the trial, would have obtained two spiritual treasures, with boundless potential achievements.
And Luo Chen had a deep-seated blood feud with them!
He had killed Feiyun Zi, the father of the Gu siblings!
He didn’t believe others wouldn’t seek revenge, just as he silently endured for a decade or a century, seeking to resolve a single doubt.
This venomous snake hiding in the shadows was tolerable before.
But with Luo Chen leading Eastern Wasteland strongmen to attack the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, his reputation has spread far and wide, and his past experiences and various titles have been uncovered.
Luo Chen has become the most conspicuous existence!
With his abilities, he naturally doesn’t fear.
But should the opponent emulate his patient endurance until Luo Chen reaches Divine Transformation and ascends, then turn against the remaining members of the Luo Tian Sect, what could he do then?
As it stands, those two are definitely not his opponents. If they could be found, he would eradicate them conveniently.
If it drags on longer, until his own success in Divine Transformation, there would be much to worry about.
In this world, a Divine Transformation Great Power can act.
But such action comes not without cost.
Controlling vast amounts of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi would bind the Primordial Spirit too closely to this world, making future ascension and leaving this world incredibly challenging.
This is the reason Nascent Soul True Masters roamed the Mountain Sea Realm, but Divine Transformation Great Powers acted rarely.
Whenever a Great Power acts, there is a reason, and there must be an outcome!
Luo Chen does not want to wait until that time, so he plans to settle the matter along the way.
But some matters never go as desired.
Sensing a shift, Luo Chen suddenly took out a Great Seal.
It was the seal of the Crossing Truth Palace Master.
A somewhat anxious voice emanated from within.
"Palace Master, Yuan Jun is about to ascend; please return to Cangwu Mountain quickly!"
Luo Chen was stunned, with a tinge of disbelief in his eyes.
Could Qi Xia Emperor in such a state manage to ascend?
