Chapter 1920: Chapter 638:
Through the previous war of expansion, with Azure Phoenix True Monarch and Xuanjian True Monarch surrounding and killing the Double-headed Flood Dragon, at the Nascent Soul level, such influence couldn’t have been achieved.
His eyes interwoven with golden light suspected that this was not merely a simple skirmish, but someone had utilized some forbidden means, a fourth-tier Forbidden Array.
Otherwise, if a Nascent Soul battle could result in this effect, it would be utterly terrifying.
"Gagaga—"
The two cautiously entered the city, where many black ominous birds let out mournful, shrill cries, forming horrifying sonic attacks that pierced the soul.
The sporadic flowers and trees in this ruined city were all extremely bizarre, mostly barren and desolate, giving off an aura of dry and dark blood-like scarlet, a scene of desolation and bleakness.
However, having been in the Myriad Demon Abyss for so long, Lu Changsheng was already accustomed to these creepy scenes, extinguishing any approaching trees, vines, ominous birds, or poison insects at a mere raise of his hand.
"Gagaga—"
At this moment, a sharp and piercing cry resounded, like the grinding of tiles, spreading like waves through layers of void.
Ordinary cultivators, upon hearing such a sound, would probably be instantly struck with dizziness, their minds descending into chaos and lunacy.
At the center of Lu Changsheng’s brows, the Taiyi Divine Soul shimmered with dazzling light, suppressing the Sea of Consciousness.
Looking up, he saw an enormous three-headed ominous bird, entirely pitch-black, at least a hundred feet long, flying aggressively from the city, immensely terrifying.
This was a Fourth Rank demonized fierce beast.
"Daoist Yangming, hold it off for a moment while I search the city,"
The Five Poisons Cult Leader, observing the ominous bird with eyes shimmering five-color light, said to Lu Changsheng.
The two, when cooperating, had agreed to lend a hand in crucial moments.
"Such a Fourth Rank fierce beast is not something I can contend with. At most, I can delay it for half a quarter hour; beyond that, the leader must handle it personally."
Lu Changsheng said gravely.
The beasts of the Myriad Demon Abyss, though devoid of spiritual intelligence, were not lacking in battle prowess and seemed impervious to pain, savagely ruthless.
No matter how much he believed he could withstand, it was impossible to recklessly confront them.
"Half a quarter hour, alright."
The Five Poisons Cult Leader, holding the Five-Colored Banner, nodded in response.
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng directly performed the One Qi Grand Capture Technique, striking towards the three-headed ominous bird before strategically retreating.
Since the task was to delay, he naturally wouldn’t engage head-on, wasting mana and stamina.
"Puchi—"
The three-headed ominous bird screeched, the sound waves like sharp blades, while the other two heads opened their huge mouths, spitting blood-colored flames and pitch-black liquid at Lu Changsheng, extremely menacing.
Seeing this, the Five Poisons Cult Leader silently disappeared to search the city.
Originally, against such blood-colored flames and pitch-black liquid, Lu Changsheng wanted to test the effect of his Great Bright King Light Aspect, but with the Five Poisons Cult Leader observing him at all times, he chose normal measures, unleashing a Yin Yang Mysterious Divine Light to envelop it.
However, being a Fourth Rank fierce beast, the three-headed ominous bird fearsomely burned and corroded Lu Changsheng’s Yin Yang Mysterious Divine Light, continuing its assault.
"One hundred miles of golden feathers!"
The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng on Lu Changsheng’s shoulder immediately soared into the sky, dazzling with radiant golden light, releasing countless golden feathers like sharp swords, sharing the burden with Lu Changsheng.
"It seems this person hasn’t really advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage."
Entrance the city, the Five Poisons Cult Leader observed the fight between Lu Changsheng and the three-headed ominous bird, contemplating.
Although she wanted to subdue Yangming True Master, she was exceedingly cautious.
Yangming True Master’s visit to the Five Poisons Cult was unexpected, raising suspicions that he had already advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage.
If he had, she would have to change her strategy, shifting from subjugation to mending relations according to the original plan.
But through these days of contact, and judging by Yangming True Master’s current magic aura, she determined that he hadn’t reached Nascent Soul.
Even Yangming True Master’s magic power mechanism while acting gave her a feeling of not yet reaching Core Formation Perfection.
The Five Poisons Cult Leader opted not to act now but searched the city instead, hoping to trace any clues or aura of the sect’s Supreme Treasure.
Her journey to the Myriad Demon Abyss to retrieve the lost Supreme Treasure of the sect wasn’t a mere ruse.
It was merely a possibility that the treasure was lost in the Myriad Demon Abyss, and she had no clear direction, not harboring high hopes.
"Buzz buzz buzz—"
In the Five Poisons Cult Leader’s hand, the Five-Colored Banner vibrated, magic mechanisms transformed into spirit snakes, poison scorpions, spiders, toads, and centipedes, shooting off in all directions.
"Boom boom boom—"
In the distance, Lu Changsheng, with the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, engaged in a challenging manuever with the three-headed ominous bird.
"It seems when he fought Yan Wujang that day, he relied on Soul Attachment Secret Technique to augment and exert Nascent Soul might; his normal strength only rates as a top-level Core Formation cultivator."
The Five Poisons Cult Leader occasionally observed Lu Changsheng’s combat situation, analyzing internally.
After quickly searching the city, sensing no aura of the Supreme Treasure, she promptly left, letting her Nascent Soul suppression spread across the three-headed ominous bird, signalling Lu Changsheng to retreat.
After quite some time, the two managed to shake off the three-headed ominous bird.
"Let me rest for a moment."
The Reversal Yin Yang Glazed Glass Wall on Lu Changsheng’s body dissipated as he exhaled a breath of turbid energy, retrieving a bottle of elixir medicines for the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng from the storage ring and holding two Superior Grade Spirit Stones to restore his mana.
Even though the Tianyuan Lotus, serving as his Second Dantian, meant the battle’s consumption wasn’t too great.
But possessing the Taiyi Divine Soul, he sensed the Five Poisons Cult Leader’s constant observation during the fight.
In this situation, Lu Changsheng naturally remained vigilant.
After a day of rest, the two resumed their journey with the Heavenly Peng.
Half a month later, they arrived at a valley.
"Roar roar roar—"
A series of roars, akin to ghostly wails and godly howls, resounded, leaving Lu Changsheng and the Five Poisons Cult Leader slightly unnerved.
