Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1909: 495: Entering the Myriad Demon Abyss Again, the Might of the Soul-calling Beast!

Though she hasn't shown up in several years, it won't disrupt the sect's daily affairs.

"Fortunately, Mili is present as well; for any sect-related issues, you can have Mili take care of them."

Lu Changsheng gave a nod in agreement, fully aware that a Nascent Soul Cultivator like Ayoudo typically stays detached from sect operations.

Nangong Mili's True Elixir has reached superior grade, and with her breakthrough to Core Formation Late Stage, she's now able to control the Great Formation, making her fully qualified to lead the Five Poisons Cult.

"Yes, Master."

Ayoudo cast a look at Nangong Mili's captivating and seductive silhouette in the distance, who had just awakened yet remained silent, grasping Lu Changsheng's underlying purpose.

At this moment, across the whole Five Poisons Cult, Lu Changsheng places the utmost trust in Nangong Mili, desiring her to view them as true allies and support their growth without reservation.

....

A month later.

Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo quietly reached the outskirts of the Myriad Demon Abyss.

Even with their formidable power together, they weren't anxious about detection by fellow cultivators, yet they proceeded with utmost care, working hard to mask their magical energy signatures.

As they stepped into the Myriad Demon Abyss, shrouded in hazy gray fog, swirling black mists, and echoing with ghostly wails, and spotting no other cultivators nearby, Lu Changsheng eyed the wandering spirits amid the Yin Wind, his fingers lightly touching the Qiankun Shadow-Confining Belt.

In that instant, a tiny creature, just a few inches long, materialized, its golden coat gleaming brilliantly, featuring an enormous snout, and eyes sparkling darkly like those of a macaque.

Tihun gazed at the Yin Wind and Ghost Fog stretching ahead, letting out an eager chirp, before a pale yellow glow suddenly surged from its massive nostrils, pulling in all the Yin Wind and Ghost Fog before it straight into its nostrils and belly.

"What is that..."

The Five Poisons Cult Leader stared at the Soul-calling Beast, a hint of astonishment crossing her face.

These were only minor ghosts, after all, ones she could wipe out effortlessly with a single gesture.

However, the presence emanating from the Soul-calling Beast and the glow that had just flared from its nostrils sent an odd shiver through her, making her realize this Soul-calling Beast was far from commonplace!

"Impressive."

Lu Changsheng observed the display with a steady expression; he seized this chance to assess the Soul-calling Beast's fighting capabilities.

He softly lifted his hand, settling the Soul-calling Beast onto his shoulder, then advanced further into the Myriad Demon Abyss alongside Ayoudo.

Whenever they met Yin Wind Ghost Fog on their path, or if Yin Souls or malevolent ghosts emerged, Tihun would snort vigorously, unleashing a pale yellow radiance from its nostrils to engulf and draw them into its belly.

Not even a Third Rank Ghost King could put up any fight against the Soul-calling Beast.

As for Demonized Demon Beasts, the Soul-calling Beast couldn't devour them outright with its innate abilities but instead subdued them via the Soul Capturing Divine Light.

"Without shifting to battle mode, the Soul-calling Beast excels mainly at subduing Essence Ghost Kings in its usual form."

Lu Changsheng understood that against Demonized Demon Beasts, Corpse Kings, or other Demonic Path Cultivators, the Soul-calling Beast needed to activate battle mode and morph into a genuine bane of wickedness and a divine enforcer.

But for his current needs, the Soul-calling Beast's present condition proved more than sufficient.

Yin Souls and vicious ghosts got swallowed directly as sustenance by the Soul-calling Beast; Demonized Fierce Beasts and Corpse Demons were held down by the Soul-calling Beast while he dispatched them swiftly with his blade.

To onlookers, the deadly Myriad Demon Abyss became a treasure-filled paradise for Lu Changsheng.

The Five Poisons Cult Leader herself, witnessing this, felt deep surprise and admiration inside.

Typically, Nascent Soul Cultivators venturing into the Myriad Demon Abyss conserved their energy and stamina, steering clear of unnecessary efforts.

Yet Lu Changsheng's companion on his shoulder, the Soul-calling Beast, inhaled souls and gobbled ghosts, feasting on the Myriad Demon Abyss's specters without worry of depletion—in fact, it seemed to thrive, rendering it utterly invincible.

"Besides the earlier Golden Peng Bird, Master harbors such a wondrous spirit pet, one whose Mysterious Light inherently counters the Demonic Path...."

Even the seasoned Five Poisons Cult Leader failed to identify the Soul-calling Beast.

She merely sensed that its innate ability held a natural suppression over Demonic Path Cultivators.

"Master's decision to bring this spirit pet to the Jin Kingdom might aim at stirring conflict with the Yiming Ghost Sect?"

Ayoudo mulled over the thought, forming her own guess.

She recognized the small beast's effectiveness against the Demonic Path, particularly potent versus intangible Yin Soul Ghost Kings.

A Third Rank Ghost King had zero hope of prevailing against the Soul-calling Beast.

If the Yiming Ghost Sect crossed paths with this spirit beast, they'd likely suffer severe losses.

Thus, Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo cleared through the Myriad Demon Abyss.

Though the Soul-calling Beast couldn't fully dominate Demonized Demon Beasts, it possessed acute sensitivity to demonic and evil auras.

Via its keen scent, it could faintly pinpoint nearby Ghost Kings and Demonized Fierce Beasts.

Upon the approach of Ghost Kings or Demonized Demon Beasts, it would warn right away.

"A Third Rank Top Level Yin Evil Demon Vine—quite valuable; it could serve to craft a whip-style Magical Treasure or act as the key component for Demon Evil Pills...."

The Myriad Demon Abyss brimmed with Demonic Qi, Evil Qi, Ghost Energy, and Turbid Energy, rendering it a barren wasteland scarce in Spiritual Medicine.

In spite of the harsh environment, certain exceptional Heaven and Earth Spiritual Materials still emerged here.

"Roar!!! "

After quite some time, Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo entered the domain of a Fourth Rank Demonized Fierce Beast.

On prior visits to the Myriad Demon Abyss, they'd bypass Fourth Rank Demonized Fierce Beasts when feasible or withdraw if cornered, avoiding direct clashes.

This journey, however, apart from aiding Ayoudo in locating the [Gu God Bowl], aimed squarely at pursuing Fourth Rank Demonized Fierce Beasts!

Sensing the savage demonic presence barreling toward them with thunderous roars and charging forth, Lu Changsheng showed no dread, as his Fourth Rank Physique stirred to life.

A tremendous, boundless Qi-Blood burst forth akin to an ancient volcano erupting, expanding outward to dispel the black fog across the area and ravage everything within dozens of miles.

Numerous Yin Souls and fiendish ghosts let out piercing cries before crumbling to dust in an instant.

"Such presence—Master has truly advanced to Fourth Rank Body Refining!"

Ayoudo had earlier suspected Lu Changsheng's power had surged, notably in body refinement.

Upon witnessing his aura explode in full, she verified it immediately, her mind surging with awe.

After all, body refinement wasn't Lu Changsheng's main focus, so he lacked the supreme techniques that dedicated body cultivators wielded.

Achieving Fourth Rank was comparable to Nascent Soul Cultivators enduring Heavenly Tribulation.

Surmounting that trial with such a physique and mortal frame posed an immense hurdle!

"Still, given master's prowess, conquering the Fourth Rank Body Refining Heavenly Tribulation doesn't appear overly daunting..."

Thinking back to Lu Changsheng's exploits in the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, Ayoudo figured the Fourth Rank Body Refining breakthrough came as no great shock.

In the end, relative to mastering Fourth Rank Body Refining, inverting Core Formation to battle Nascent Soul True Lords felt far more astonishing.

As a colossal hundred-zhang Double-headed Demonized Lizard bellowed while lunging at them, whipping up endless gales of dust, debris, foul winds, and stench, the Five Poisons Cult Leader swiftly deployed her Lifebound Spiritual Treasure [Five Poison Banner].

The banner fluttered wildly, its vivid, animated depictions of Spirit Snakes, Poison Scorpions, Centipedes, Spiders, and Toads seeming to spring to life, summoning a veil of toxic mist around them.

"Shriek! Chirp chirp chirp!!! "

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng and Soul-calling Beast both fixed their sights on the oncoming Double-headed Demonized Lizard, their eyes alight with fierce combat eagerness.
