Chapter 515: Thousand Illusions
After receiving news from Mo Lingwei and the other two, Qin Ming was also overjoyed.
After pondering for a while.
He decided to handle this matter personally, as it concerned top-grade spirit stones, which even Nascent Soul old monsters coveted.
If the reserves were vast, it would cause a bloodbath.
And so, Qin Ming summoned the Heaven Devouring Rat.
The Heaven Devouring Rat was currently cultivating the Green Scale Gloom Fish with Little Silver Fox in the Small Spiritual Realm, and it immediately came out after receiving the message.
“Master, what do you need me for?”
“Go to the Western Wilderness with This Seat, merge with Mo Lingwei and the others. If the news leaks, I’m afraid they won’t be able to protect the top-grade spirit stones,” Qin Ming said faintly.
The Heaven Devouring Rat’s spirits immediately perked up, and with a look of excitement, it patted its chest and said, “Master, you can rest assured. You don’t even need to make a move. My appearance alone will suffice.”
Qin Ming nodded slightly, and immediately took the two beasts to the Western Wilderness Cultivation World.
The Western Wilderness Cultivation World bordered the Wu Kingdom in the Southern Wilderness, which was not particularly far for Qin Ming now.
โฆโฆ
Half a Month later.
Western Wilderness Cultivation World, Black Sands Ridge Mountains in the North.
The Golden Core Clan, the Sha Clan, was located here. Within the clan, there was a Patriarch in the Early-Stage Golden Core realm, named Sha Kang.
At this time, in the Great Hall of Sha Family Fort, Mo Lingwei, Hua Tianxiong, and Shi Jin were all sitting, and the atmosphere at the scene was a bit subtle.
Sha Kang was an Old Man with dark skin, looking like an old ghost. Because the cultivation of the three people was higher than his, he personally served tea and poured water for the three of them respectfully.
“Old Man Sha, how have you considered the matter?”
“If you delay any further, Old Man is too lazy to talk nonsense with you, and will directly take action and seize it!”
“Anyway, those Flame Marrow Ores, to be honest, Old Man also seized them.”
After a period of negotiation, Shi Jin and the other two also saw that Sha Kang, this Old Fellow, was just being insincere and deliberately delaying time.
Mo Lingwei and Hua Tianxiong also had sharp gazes, staring fixedly at Old Man Sha.
To avoid trouble, they also didn’t want to make a big deal out of it. After a few days of secretly investigating, they could basically confirm that top-grade spirit stones existed in the Sha Clan’s ore vein.
All three of them had disguised their original appearances and wanted to acquire this ore vein at a high price.
“Uh, Fellow Daoist Shi! It’s not that Old Man doesn’t want to hand over the ore vein. It’s just that a transaction has already been made with the Ancient Sword Sect of the East Sea…”
“My young girl is the favored concubine of Qingchen Zhenjun’s Direct Disciple.”
Upon hearing this, Old Man Sha Kang was immediately startled, and said with a forced smile.
At the same time, he brought out Qingchen Zhenjun, this Nascent Soul stage Big Shot, hoping to make the three Golden Core Cultivators who had come with ill intentions have misgivings.
Hua Tianxiong showed mockery. Qingchen Zhenjun of the Ancient Sword Sect was a defeated opponent of Qin Ming. He still vividly remembered the combat at the Immortal Mansion Grand Gathering on Dragon Abyss Island in the East Sea.
Now that his Master had to avoid even a top-level figure like Demon Lord Liantianhen, would he be afraid of a mere Ancient Sword Sect?
“Enough talk, I’ll give you half an Incense Stick to consider it clearly. The conditions I’ve offered are already very generous, otherwise…” Before Hua Tianxiong could finish speaking.
“Otherwise what?” a voice full of energy came.
Immediately afterwards, in the void of the Great Hall, there was a violent undulation, followed by ripples like water waves spreading out.
The next instant.
An enormous Spiritual Pressure of the Nascent Soul level struck instantly, causing the complexions of everyone present to change drastically.
A middle-aged man in a high crown and tied hair, and a pair of young man and woman appeared in the Great Hall.
Hua Tianxiong’s expression changed slightly. This proud-looking middle-aged man in the purple robe was exactly Qingchen Zhenjun, whom he had seen on Dragon Abyss Island before. This person was extremely protective of his underlings and liked to show off for his Sect Disciples.
The other young man was also born with a good appearance, and his cultivation was in the Late Stage Golden Core, obviously, he had also consumed Miracle Pills such as the Eternal Youth Pill.
And that Female Cultivator had some beauty, and her cultivation was only in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. As soon as she arrived, she ran towards Old Man Sha Kang and asked with some worry, “Father, are you alright?”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Junior pays respects to Senior Zhenjun!” Sha Kang took a long breath and quickly bowed respectfully to Qingchen Zhenjun of the Ancient Sword Sect.
Seeing this scene, the complexions of Hua Tianxiong and the other two were extremely ugly.
The three of them had been with Qin Ming for a long time, and they were figures who had been in the Cultivation World for many years.
It was not difficult to guess that the people of the Ancient Sword Sect had come so quickly, probably because they had already negotiated with the Ancient Sword Sect in advance before transporting the Flame Marrow Ore.
After all, it concerned the Nascent Soul Pill, and it could only be grasped in the hands of a Nascent Soul True Lord.
“Three Golden Core juniors, also dared to covet the top-grade spirit stones. Since you know about this matter, in order not to leak the news, This Seat can only send you on your way.”
Qingchen Zhenjun’s gaze swept across a cold light, and then a sky-covering Spiritual Pressure transformed into a hurricane, crushing towards the three!
Although Hua Tianxiong, Mo Lingwei, and the other three had many means, the gap in Major Realms was there. Trying to escape from a Nascent Soul Great Being was no different from wishful thinking.
Under the sweep of the powerful Spiritual Pressure, the three had no power to resist, and they spouted fresh blood from their mouths. It seemed that they were about to fall on the spot.
Awoo!
At this moment, a high-pitched sound rang out from within the Great Hall. A crimson rosy cloud flashed on Mo Lingwei’s body, and a phantom of a Phoenix flew out, unexpectedly resisting this Spiritual Pressure.
But it was only temporary. Looking at Mo Lingwei’s pale face, it was like a flower in the wind, about to wither at any moment.
“Phoenix Singing Body!”
Qingchen Zhenjun’s eyes suddenly lit up. His proud countenance revealed excitement, and he couldn’t help but exclaim.
“Hahaha! It’s really the Phoenix Singing Body. Even if there are no top-grade spirit stones in the ore vein, This Seat will not have come in vain!”
Qingchen Zhenjun was joyful, after all, this kind of physique could assist in breaking through the bottleneck when cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage were breaking through, a special Spiritual Body that was rare in the world!
Even as a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, it was difficult to remain calm.
After saying that, Qingchen Zhenjun of the Ancient Sword Sect withdrew the Spiritual Pressure, reached out a hand, and was about to grab Mo Lingwei.
But at this moment.
Hum~
The void in front was distorted, and a figure suddenly appeared, which was a White-Robed boy.
It could be seen that with a casual strike, it repelled Qingchen Zhenjun, and then frowned and scolded:
“You unobservant thing, how dare you attack my Master’s underlings?”
“What the Master said is correct, if we had come one step late, you really would have succeeded, Old Fellow!”
Hua Tianxiong, seeing the familiar Heaven Devouring Rat appear, immediately felt as if he had been pulled back from the cliff of death, and the whole person was pardoned.
Qingchen Zhenjun’s expression was shocked, and he flew back, staggering a few times before he barely stood still.
“Fourth-Order Transforming Great Demon!”
He looked at the figure of the Heaven Devouring Rat, his eyes filled with suspicion.
He saw the Heaven Devouring Rat open its mouth and spray out a Black Steel Fork, which was its Natal Treasure, the Slaying Immortal Halberd.
Without saying a word, it picked up the Steel Fork and went to kill Qingchen Zhenjun!
Boom!
Bang!
Under the sweeping of the Heaven Devouring Rat’s Slaying Immortal Halberd’s great power, a mass of Black Mysterious Light erupted.
Qingchen Zhenjun also reacted quickly, directly sacrificing a Fourth-Rank Spirit Treasure-grade Flying Sword, unleashing the Sword Art. Countless Sword Lights flickered, and it easily blocked this blow.
“Yo ho! You can actually take This Grandpa’s slashing Divine Ability!”
“You are not Qingchen the Old Daoist! That guy’s strength is not so strong.”
“Who exactly are you?”
The Heaven Devouring Rat immediately saw something wrong.
Then it sprayed a Black Mysterious Light towards the front from its mouth.
The ‘Qingchen Zhenjun’ on the opposite side suddenly revealed a smile of evil, and a person came out from the human skin. This person’s temperament suddenly changed, and Demonic Qi surged around them.
The Direct Disciple and the Female Cultivator beside them seemed to be unaware of this, and they showed expressions of shock and terror.
But it could be seen that the Demonic Qi transformed into several pitch-black giant pythons, and instantly swallowed and dissolved the two, not even leaving any bone fragments.
Even a scream could not be uttered.
Hua Tianxiong and the others in the Great Hall, seeing this bloody and eerie scene, had long since had their Souls Flying to the Heavens.
“I didn’t expect to be discovered.”
“I also don’t know which Demon Saint popped up to ruin this Demon Lord’s good deed.”
The next moment.
The entire ‘Qingchen Zhenjun’ split open, and a gaunt Old Man with a sinister expression walked out from inside, and his cultivation was clearly the Mid Stage Nascent Soul cultivation realm.
“Thousand Illusion Demon Lord!” Hua Tianxiong beside him exclaimed after seeing the face of the Demonic Path.
“Oh? You know this Old Fellow?”
The Heaven Devouring Rat couldn’t help but be stunned, and then asked Hua Tianxiong.
“That’s right, this demon is the famous Thousand Illusion Demon Lord of the Longevity Temple, who was once on the Heavenly Sea Alliance’s reward list.” Hua Tianxiong explained tremblingly, his heart in a panic, “The Junior has seen his Portrait in Tianlan Immortal City.”
At the same time.
Outside Sha Family Fort, the Demonic Cultivators of the Demonic Path suddenly poured out from all directions, and within a short period of time, they massacred the Sha Clan members inside.
Old Man Sha Kang’s face was already as white as paper, regretting his mistake.
“No matter what Demon Lord you are, today you must become a lost soul under This Grandpa’s Halberd!”
The Heaven Devouring Rat roared, and immediately picked up the Black Steel Fork in its hand and fiercely forked it towards the opponent.
Boom rumble!!
The Thousand Illusion Demon Lord had Mid Stage Nascent Soul cultivation, but even when fighting in melee combat with a Fourth-Order Great Demon, he still couldn’t resist the physical strength of the Demon Race, staggered and flew out of the Great Hall, and slammed into the mountain rocks.
Boom rumble!
Countless flying sand and rocks exploded, but after a slight pause, the Thousand Illusion Demon Lord flew out from the mountainside.
The sky-covering Demonic Qi enveloped the entire Sha Family Fort, and the Demonic Cultivators within its Clan Territory were also stunned by the earth-shattering fighting.
They all looked around. Wasn’t today the day when the Demon Lord came to raid Sha Family Fort?
How could there be undulations of combat at the Nascent Soul level?
The Thousand Illusion Demon Lord saw the Unexpected Turn of Events and knew that it would be difficult to take down this Fourth-Order Transforming Great Demon for a while, and the other party also said that its Master was coming, and should be observing in secret, even he couldn’t detect any anomalies.
It must not be someone easy to deal with.
And so, he unleashed the Demonic Skill Escape Light, and wanted to escape from this place.
Whoosh~
The Thousand Illusion Demon Lord transformed into a Purple Shocking Rainbow and fled outwards!
However, the Heaven Devouring Rat, seeing this, put away the Black Steel Fork, folded its arms and revealed a playful smile.
Hum!
A Law Domain power of the Void Divine Ability echoed between Heaven and Earth.
The Thousand Illusion Demon Lord, who was flying in mid-air, surprisingly discovered that he had lost contact with the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy, and his cultivation was suppressed to the Nascent Infant realm.
“Nascent Soul Law Domain!”
Qingchen Zhenjun, after realizing it, suddenly came back to his senses and revealed a look of shock.
Because the other party’s Nascent Soul Law Domain was four or five times bigger than his own!
Immediately afterwards, a Young Man Cultivator with an ordinary Appearance appeared in the air opposite him, looking at him as if he were a dead man.
“I didn’t expect that the demon lords of the Longevity Temple would also penetrate into the Ancient Sword Sect.” Qin Ming glanced at the other party and said casually.
“Hehe! It turns out that it was the misunderstanding of Moon Gazing True Lord of the Southern Wilderness, it was all a misunderstanding!”
“This Seat did not know that the three Golden Core juniors were Qin Fellow Daoist’s people, and I ask for forgiveness!
The Thousand Illusion Demon Lord immediately recognized Qin Ming, so his posture was very low, and it was completely different from the posture in the Great Hall just now.
He had heard of Moon Gazing True Lord’s Great Name, a ruthless person who could annihilate the Six Desires Demon Lord, and he was probably not his opponent.
“If Your Excellency wants to touch Qin’s people, then you should think clearly about the consequences,” Qin Ming said faintly.
“Moreover, you are of the Demonic Path. Today, meeting Qin is only because your life is thin.”
As his voice fell, a tens-of-feet-long invisible Large Hand appeared in the void and instantly crushed the Thousand Illusion Demon Lord’s physical body, exploding into a cloud of blood mist.
With just a casual strike, the Thousand Illusion Demon Lord was seriously injured!
The Thousand Illusion Demon Lord still wanted to use Secret Arts to escape, but a cold sensation came from behind, but he didn’t find anything.
He hurriedly unleashed Demonic Skills, and continuously sacrificed several Demonic Treasures, attacking Qin Ming.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
As he was escaping, he saw that above his head, he didn’t know when, but a Giant Net woven from countless green, blue long nails had already appeared, easily defeating his Demonic Treasures.
Even his Black Qi Demon Python was, under the long nails, like snow meeting the scorching sun, and was instantly destroyed.
This was the first time Qin Ming had completely sacrificed the entire set of Wood Emperor Nails, which could be transformed at will.
Under the Envelop of the green giant net, the Thousand Illusion Demon Lord was unable to avoid it, and was directly penetrated by the green light as it shuttled and moved instantly in the void.
The whole person was directly pierced into a honeycomb.
After the Wood Emperor Nails advanced to become a Fourth-Rank Mid-Grade Spirit Treasure, its Power greatly increased, and ordinary Nascent Souls couldn’t resist it at all.
Moreover, this Treasure had an extremely strong Restraint effect on Demonic Path cultivators.
The gaunt corpse of the Thousand Illusion Demon Lord fell from the sky despondently.
A Nascent Soul with a look of terror flew out of the blood mist in a hurry, and teleported towards the distance, but it was blocked by the Void Power formed by the Nascent Soul Law Domain.
“Where to escape!!”
The Heaven Devouring Rat manifested its true form, and with a single suction towards Qingchen Zhenjun’s Nascent Soul, a huge Suction Force came from Fate.
The Thousand Illusion Demon Lord, who had made countless cultivators tremble in fear and dominated the East Sea Cultivation World, went directly into the Heaven Devouring Rat’s Belly.
Qin Ming gestured casually, and the sky was covered with dark clouds, and Yin-Sha Cold Rain began to fall.
Sha Family Fort was like being Enveloped by countless Black Vines, and those Low-Level Demon Cultivators all turned into dried corpses.
Old Man Sha Kang’s face was filled with terror. Even the Nascent Soul Demon Lord was annihilated in a Flick of a Finger. He finally realized that he had provoked someone he shouldn’t have.
Without saying a word, he transformed into a yellow Escape Light and wanted to escape.
But he was horrified to discover that a Large Hand had already pressed on his head, and he was stiff and unable to move, and cold sweat was pouring down.
“Senior, spare my life!! I am willing to Offer the spirit ore vein!”
