Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1819: 466: Three Nascent Souls! Encirclement and Assassination!

"What is happening? Is it possible he detected our presence?"

Ming Sha True Monarch's expression soured as he watched the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng vanish into the distance, appearing as nothing more than a golden streak of light. He stood frozen for a moment before speaking.

They had paid a staggering price to track down Yangming True Master, scouring nearly the entire outer perimeter of the secret realm in their pursuit.

Just as they had finally locked onto the aura of the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng and Yangming True Master and begun a cautious approach, the target had immediately fled.

A wave of intense frustration washed over Ming Sha True Monarch as he watched the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng disappear almost without a trace.

"That cannot be right. This individual is merely a Core Formation cultivator; how could he possibly perceive our aura?"

Yun Mei Monarch countered him instantly.

The secret realm imposed heavy restrictions on divine sense, which hindered even their own capabilities. It seemed impossible for a Core Formation cultivator to overcome such limitations.

"Something is amiss. There is something peculiar about this youth!"

At that moment, the Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch spoke in a raspy voice, his eyes slowly opening.

Through the resonance with his Lifebound Heavenly Silkworm and his connection to the heavenly secrets, he sensed that the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng had just ignited its essence blood.

Under ordinary circumstances, even after a fierce struggle, a cultivator would not force their spiritual pet to burn its essence blood just to travel.

After all, no matter how potent a demon beast’s qi-blood might be, it is a resource that cannot be expended so recklessly.

Therefore, the target must have sensed an imminent and grave danger.

Yet, the three of them had carefully suppressed their mana mechanism. How could a mere Core Formation cultivator detect them?

"This child is highly unusual. Either he is a Divination Grandmaster who has mastered a top-tier divine skill for sensing fortune and calamity, or he possesses a treasure capable of detecting dangerous mechanisms!"

The Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch’s interest in Yangming True Master surged, his desire to hunt him down intensifying.

"Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch, do you possess a method to locate him?"

Ming Sha True Monarch turned toward the Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch and asked urgently.

"Have no fear, I have already committed their aura to memory. Unless he possesses some other way to mask his presence and remains perfectly hidden, he cannot evade my senses!"

A flicker of greed appeared in the Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch’s eyes as he noted the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng's awakened True Spirit Bloodline.

If he could nourish his heavenly silkworm with that essence blood, he might achieve a flawless transformation!

"Excellent. Then I shall leave this in your hands, True Monarch!"

Ming Sha True Monarch looked relieved.

The Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch inhaled deeply and performed a series of hand incantations. His abdomen began to distend, echoing with a sound like a roaring heavenly silkworm.

His pale, soft skin became interlaced with countless shimmering crystalline threads, and his face turned slightly ashen.

After a short while, he peered toward the horizon where Lu Changsheng had vanished. "I can pinpoint their general vicinity," he said hoarsely. "However, since this person likely has a treasure for sensing dangerous mechanisms, we should separate and use my guidance to intercept him..."

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng’s flight speed, fueled by the burning of its essence blood and lifespan, was truly breathtaking.

Within this secret realm, Nascent Soul cultivators were unable to tear through the void to travel unless they sacrificed their own essence blood or Nascent Soul origin, making it extremely difficult to close the gap.

Aside from elite body cultivators, the essence blood and longevity of a human cultivator were far more fragile than those of a demon beast. They simply could not endure such depletion, particularly in a secret realm of the Nascent Soul level.

"Split up..."

Ming Sha True Monarch looked at the pale countenance of the Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch, feeling a flicker of concern that his ally might be killed by Yangming True Master.

The Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch had only reached the Nascent Soul stage a few decades ago. His combat strength was notably lower than Ming Sha’s, who possessed the formidable Myriad Ghosts Blood Pool.

If Yangming True Master caught him off guard with an ambush, his magic body might truly be destroyed.

However, remembering the specialized techniques of Beast God Mountain and knowing that he and Yun Mei Monarch could provide instant backup, he nodded and cautioned, "Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch, this Yangming True Master holds a top-tier killing treasure. You must be careful."

"Do not worry, Daoist Ming Sha."

The Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch’s body appeared bloated and heavy, his eyes narrowed into thin slits that were barely visible.

While his direct combat abilities were mediocre, his physical defense and qi-blood vitality were elite among those of his rank. He had little reason to fear a Core Formation cultivator.

Following a brief discussion, the three took their communication tokens and flew off in separate directions. They moved according to the Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch’s directions, ensuring that once Yangming True Master was found, there would be no escape.

As long as one of them could pin Yangming True Master down, the arrival of all three would make killing a Core Formation cultivator effortless.

...

Meanwhile, many miles away inside a hidden cave.

"Phew!"

Lu Changsheng let out a long breath. He hadn't expected the secret realm to be so vast yet still allow Ming Sha True Monarch to find him, let alone enlist the help of other Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Once I breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage, my first act will be to wipe out your Yiming Ghost Sect."

Lu Changsheng was not a man of mercy; he had already marked Ming Sha True Monarch as a dead man walking.

He retrieved a high-grade spiritual medicine from Lou Mountain True Monarch’s storage ring and swallowed a mouthful of thousand-year-old spiritual milk. Instantly, Lu Changsheng felt a wave of relief wash over him.

Noticing the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng appearing somewhat exhausted beside him, Lu Changsheng gave it a share of the milk along with several potent, nourishing spiritual medicines.

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng had been vital during this secret realm journey, successfully fleeing from a Nascent Soul True Lord, and Lu Changsheng had no intention of being stingy with rewards.

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng was overjoyed, thinking that its meals were becoming increasingly lavish lately.

Lu Changsheng did not rush to inspect the puppets or the spoils of his previous battle. Instead, he sat cross-legged and began circulating the "Yin Yang Creation Classic." He channeled the indestructible essence of his Chaos Body to refine the medicinal energy of the Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill, accelerating his physical recovery.

Although the prior fight hadn't been overly taxing, he was now being hunted by three Nascent Soul cultivators. It was vital to return to his peak condition as quickly as possible!

However, only a few hours had passed when—

"Master!"

The Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror tucked in his robes began to vibrate. It signaled to Lu Changsheng that another presence was stealthily nearing his location—an aura that matched one of the three powerful figures from before.
