Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 2182: 588:
Previously on Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family...
Witnessing the Solar Mysterious Light, Lu Lingjing understood her master had intervened. The pent-up frustration, grievance, and rage within her heart erupted instantly. She dragged her severely wounded body, charging directly at Ling Bo True Monarch.
Despite her dire injuries, slaying Ling Bo True Monarch was beyond her capability.
However, consumed by immense anger, she desperately needed an outlet for her fury!
Furthermore, with her master now present, if she could merely hold Ling Bo True Monarch in check, she might be able to inflict a beating, similar to what she endured, forcing her to flee in disarray!
Picturing such a scene sent a thrill through Lu Lingjing, almost making her injuries feel less painful.
Ling Bo True Monarch observed the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale hurtling towards her. Her jade-like countenance radiated the frigid, pristine luminescence of a millennium-old cold pond, with ice-blue Dao Patterns manifesting between her brows and six-sided ice flowers coalescing before her.
Subsequently, the ice-blue ribbons encircling her form began to writhe, fashioning a layer of ice-blue frost fog that completely enveloped and concealed her.
"Engage or withdraw?"
A glance at Pinghai Monarch revealed to Ling Bo True Monarch that the tide of the battle had turned unfavorably.
Yet, as a Nascent Soul True Lord, she did not immediately falter or retreat.
After all, if their adversaries possessed the genuine might to annihilate them in an instant, their approach would scarcely be so veiled and circuitous.
Moreover, they had discerned that this was a phenomenal divine power unleashed through the deployment of a supreme artifact.
"Prioritize Fu Hai's rescue!" commanded Pinghai Monarch.
He had extended an invitation to Fu Hai True Monarch and Ling Bo True Monarch, relying on their profound camaraderie.
However, the duo, utilizing the Sea Sky Black Water Banner, had only managed to carve out a marginal reprieve for Fu Hai True Monarch.
Capitalizing on this fleeting opportunity, Fu Hai True Monarch promptly enacted a clandestine technique. His physical form seemed to transmute into aqueous marsh ripples, reforming several yards distant.
But the Solar Mysterious Light pursued relentlessly, intent on his demise, once again lancing towards him.
Having narrowly skirted a fatal peril by employing a Substitution Secret Method, the pale-faced and grievously wounded Fu Hai True Monarch gazed in horror as the Solar Mysterious Light blazed towards him anew.
He recognized that the Mysterious Light had ensnared his Qi Mechanism; escape would be improbable unless he could completely vacate its attack trajectory.
He yearned to bolt with haste, but the Solar Mysterious Light exerted an insidious, intangible suppression!
In a fleeting moment, bathed in the glow of the Solar Mysterious Light, his mangled body became a gruesome spectacle of blood and torn flesh.
"Depart!"
Without a second's hesitation, he let out a reluctant roar and opted to release his Nascent Soul.
Leveraging the Nascent Soul Spirit Body's inherent capacity to bypass various mana restrictions, he broke free from the Solar Mysterious Light's oppressive grip, traversing the void and absconding with his Storage Ring and Spiritual Treasure.
Upon witnessing this spectacle, Pinghai Monarch and Ling Bo True Monarch, overcome with dread, dared not linger. They immediately abandoned their pursuit.
"Roar!!!"
Lu Lingjing, observing this turn of events, refused to permit their easy escape.
Her body, adorned with wounds and exposed bone, pulsed with a dark golden, dragon-shaped surge of Qi. The Dragon Horn emanated a faint, lustrous radiance, fabricating an invisible barrier to impede Ling Bo True Monarch's escape through tearing the Great Void.
... At the Sea Eye of Great Dream Marsh.
"Still insufficient."
Lu Changsheng watched as Fu Hai True Monarch's Nascent Soul materialized and fled, a flicker of dissatisfaction crossing his features.
Had it not been for the collective spiritual treasures of the three blocking the Solar Mysterious Light, Fu Hai True Monarch, failing to manifest his Nascent Soul initially, could have been utterly annihilated.
Without delay, he unleashed the bone talisman, hastily consuming Spiritual Milk and Elixir Medicines from his mouth to replenish his mana, the Michen Banner appearing within his grasp.
Beside him, Yun Wanshang, a fellow Nascent Soul True Lord, appeared bewildered and taken aback.
Had she and Lu Changsheng just… annihilated a Nascent Soul True Lord?
This, this, this….
She had initially presumed Lu Changsheng intended merely to employ the spiritual treasure's might to repel the trio.
Never in her wildest imagination had she foreseen the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror directly striking and terminating one!
And across such a vast expanse.
Although Fu Hai True Monarch's Nascent Soul had escaped, to Yun Wanshang, it felt utterly incredulous.
In bygone days, even when Xuanjian True Monarch and Absolute Sword True Monarch laid an ambush, Heavenly Fiend True Monarch's Nascent Soul had still managed to slip away.
To utterly vanquish a Nascent Soul True Lord was, in truth, exceedingly arduous!
"Lu Changsheng is possessed of such a supreme artifact, capable of standing guard over any hostile force from afar, assessing the situation, and then unleashing a divine radiance that directly eliminates high-ranking adversaries."
Yun Wanshang instantly grasped the terrifying nature of the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror before her.
It possessed the ability to observe targets from extreme distances and launch attacks across vast expanses.
When paired with Lu Changsheng's divination skills...
She found it difficult to fathom the immense power Lu Changsheng could wield with a simple activation of this mirror.
"Caiyun!"
Lu Changsheng, noticing Yun Wanshang's bewildered expression, let out a slight frown and called her name.
He mused how a cultivator with two centuries of cultivation could possess such a common state of mind.
However, he was unaware that it was precisely Yun Wanshang's meticulous cultivation, progression by progression over two hundred years, that instilled in her a profound understanding of the title 'Nascent Soul True Lord' and the status it signified.
With a system empowering him, Lu Changsheng harbored little awe for cultivators of high rank.
Yet, Yun Wanshang, a native cultivator, was vastly different from him.
Similar to the past, when his astonishing accomplishments frequently unsettled the minds of Lu Miaoge, Lu Miaoyun, and his other consorts.
Still, Yun Wanshang, being a Nascent Soul True Lord with an exceptional mindset, swiftly regained her composure. She swallowed the Spiritual Milk and Elixir Medicines she had taken, accelerating her mana restoration, and then nodded towards Lu Changsheng.
"Buzz!"
Before Lu Changsheng, the Michen Banner, already prepared, unleashed a five-colored radiance akin to a cloud, enveloping both him and Yun Wanshang.
Previously, the immense distance had deterred him from using the Michen Banner.
But now, despite the distance, by consuming Superior Grade Spirit Stones, activating the banner with sufficient mana was no longer an issue.
"Shoo!"
Instead of teleportation, they transformed into a beam of light, appearing to traverse the space between the Great Void and the Deep Sea, hurtling toward the location of the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale.
