Chapter 1007 - 309: Unsealing Lifted_5

"Let me tell you, you two brothers should not be so impatient."

"The Cangmin Sea Region is vast and boundless. With your current strength, searching will be too slow."

"Why not spend all your time on cultivation so that when you attain the Nascent Soul, your Divine Sense will cover tens of thousands of miles, making it much easier to search."

The two brothers listened to Li Qing’s advice, slowly exchanging a glance, and Shen Chongxu said with a bitter smile, "Elder Li, you may not know, but for us brothers, family is more important than cultivation."

"If we cannot ensure our family’s safety, we brothers may never set foot into the Nascent Soul Realm."

Shen Chongming also nodded in agreement.

Family is the greatest bond in their hearts. If they can’t find the Five Elements Secret Realm to ensure their family’s safety, their Dao Heart will never attain perfection.

Naturally, they won’t have the opportunity to step into the Nascent Soul.

Li Qing glanced at the two and couldn’t help but sigh.

"Humans are truly strange..."

"But to be honest, I really do want to meet Fellow Daoist Shen someday, too..."

A flash of reminiscence flitted through his eyes as Li Qing couldn’t help recalling Shen Wen’an’s silhouette.

"It’s a pity my own aptitude is too poor; by the time we meet again, I might no longer be a match for Fellow Daoist Shen."

He already learned from the two that Shen Wen’an had broken through to the Purple Mansion Realm.

He still remembered back then, the two barely managed to tie in their bouts.

Now, the other’s strength surpassed his, leaving Li Qing somewhat dejected.

"Elder, don’t be discouraged. We humans have a saying, ’Great things take time.’ With your deep foundation and that Dragon Species bloodline in your veins, your future achievements will surely be limitless."

Shen Chongxu heard and comforted him.

Dragon Species bloodline?

Li Qing laughed at himself, "Thinking back, when I was expelled from the Myriad Dragons’ Nest, I was indeed very indignant."

"Back then, I felt that compared to those Pure-blooded Dragon Species, I wasn’t that different."

"As long as I worked hard enough, my future achievements would not fall short of those pure-blooded ones."

Looking up at the golden, glorious setting sun, Li Qing seemed to speak to himself, "I still remember the day I left the Myriad Dragons’ Nest, the sunset was just as radiant..."

"I once made a silent vow to the sunset that even without the resources of the Myriad Dragons’ Nest, I would certainly cultivate the Nascent Soul and let my bloodline shine to the fullest, transforming into a Pure-blooded Dragon Species."

"And when I return to Myriad Dragons’ Nest, I’ll definitely let those old fogeys who decided to expel me see!"

After murmuring, his eyes squinted and he shook his head with a bitter smile, "Now I know how laughable my younger self was."

"The Dao is unfair; against aptitude, diligent cultivation is almost insignificant..."

Listening to his words, the image of a composed and steady figure dressed in loose, rough hemp clothes also emerged in Shen Chongming’s mind.

"Fellow Daoist Li’s words are incorrect."

"The Dao rewards diligence; all the cultivation you hold today was earned through your own earnest effort."

Li Qing nodded slightly, "I’m merely lamenting a bit, but I wasn’t planning on giving up; the vow of youth is naturally still..."

"Hmm?"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Chongming abruptly halted his steps.

"Brother Ming, what’s wrong?"

Shen Chongxu turned his head, his eyes showing some confusion.

Li Qing also frowned slightly, releasing his Divine Sense.

"Shen Chongxu, three hundred miles ahead on the left, someone is ambushing us in the void. These three are highly skilled at concealing themselves; I can’t sense their specific cultivation level!"

In Shen Chongxu’s Sea of Consciousness, Celestial Demon He Yi, at this moment, changed from his previous laziness, standing up from the Demon Qi Throne and speaking solemnly.

Upon hearing He Yi’s words, Shen Chongxu’s gaze turned to the left front.

"Did you feel it too?"

Shen Chongming frowned.

Shen Chongxu nodded, "He Yi says there are three people ambushed in that direction, their specific cultivation is unknown."

"Are they targeting us three?"

Shen Chongming shook his head, "It’s possible they’ve taken a bounty task from Wuxiang Zen Temple."

He himself had previously accepted two tasks involving Shen Chongxu and Li Qing from Wuxiang Zen Temple.

Without completing the task, Wuxiang Zen Temple would surely redistribute it to other cultivators.

The three paused, their gazes all turning towards that direction, which frustrated the Patrol Hunting Dao Law Enforcement Hall trio concealed three hundred miles away.

"A Fetal Breath Demon Cultivator, a Golden Core Dragon Species, and a Purple Mansion Early Stage cultivator—could they have really discovered us, despite being over three hundred miles away?"

"The residual soul karma pointed to that Purple Mansion Early Stage human cultivator, who is indeed somewhat peculiar."

"Have you sent a message to Senior Sister Qiu?"

"The message is out; Senior Sister Qiu and the others are on their way."

"Not good, it seems the Demon Cultivator and Dragon Species want to leave!"

"Could they have other helpers?"

Under the watchful eyes of the Patrol Hunting three Purple Mansion cultivators, Shen Chongxu and Li Qing had begun retreating, flying backward, leaving Shen Chongming alone in place.

Having discovered the three in ambush, yet unsure of their motives.

Shen Chongming thought of an idea.

Let Shen Chongxu and Li Qing pretend to flee to see if the three would react.

If the three can’t resist and attack, then they most likely took Wuxiang Zen Temple’s task.

But if the three don’t act, it means they might be targeting him.

The fact was, Shen Chongxu and Li Qing had flown out a hundred miles, and the hidden trio still showed no sign of action.

"Is the target me?"

Seeing this, Shen Chongming’s brow instantly furrowed.

But before he could ponder the identity of the opposition, several hidden auras suddenly appeared in the distant void, forming an encirclement that directly surrounded the area where he stood.
