Chapter 2895: Luofu Zi (Part 2)

But now, with the strength displayed by Yangming True Monarch, the five of them simply couldn’t compete, and their lives were in imminent danger.

In such a situation, he knew pleading would be useless; only Luofu Zi could intervene.

“Luofu Mountain Master?”

Lu Changsheng had heard this name before.

He knew this person was one of the Nascent Soul giants of the Southern Wilderness Northern Domain.

But he had no enmity with the other, so why would they come to Great Dream Immortal City to trouble him?

His divine sense scanned the surroundings, but he saw no other cultivators—where was this Luofu Mountain Master?

The Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror in his embrace also detected no other cultivators.

In an inn within Great Dream Immortal City.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator in his forties or fifties, with a plain appearance, stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the dueling scene above the Immortal City.

Under normal circumstances, such a Nascent Soul confrontation, coupled with a great formation isolation, would be unclear to a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

But this cultivator was completely unaffected.

“What an impressive Yangming True Monarch, not only adept in magical dual cultivation, but also possessing multiple supreme treasures, and such a soul technique…”

This Foundation Establishment cultivator was in fact Luofu Mountain Master, the top-level giant of the Southern Wilderness Northern Domain that True Monarch Qing Cang had mentioned.

After hearing Yangming True Monarch’s reputation, he immediately sent someone to investigate detailed information, intending to plan opportunities and probe the whereabouts of Azure Phoenix True Monarch.

However, he paid great attention to Yangming True Monarch, a reincarnation of a great cultivator deeply connected to Azure Phoenix True Monarch.

Before coming, he even went to Great Awakening Temple to ask his friend Great Awakening Zen Master to divine a fortune for him.

At the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, there is limited information that Great Awakening Zen Master can deduce.

He merely stated that his actions would not proceed smoothly.

Knowing his friend’s capabilities, Luofu Zi had full trust.

Thus, he spent time finding True Monarch Qing Cang and True Monarch Yin Lei among others.

He persuaded them to take action while he watched from the shadows to further understand Yangming True Monarch’s situation.

From his observations just now, he gleaned much information.

Firstly, the magical sword in the opponent’s hand was extraordinary, a top-level treasure which allowed a Core Formation cultivator to challenge Nascent Souls.

Yangming True Monarch’s current combat prowess and lethality are closely related to this magical sword.

Secondly, his magical dual cultivation is seamless.

And his physical body seems even stronger than his mana cultivation, possibly possessing some kind of top-level physical constitution.

Thirdly, his soul surpasses ordinary people.

Either he possesses a soul secret treasure, or his soul has reached Nascent Soul Late Stage!

Fourthly, his spiritual pet has already surpassed the limits of a Heaven Rank bloodline.

It is not as simple as possessing a True Spirit bloodline; it likely has reached a low-rank True Spirit level!

Fifthly, his Dao companion, although not a Nascent Soul cultivator, definitely involves Nascent Soul possession or Nascent Soul reincarnation.

Considering all these aspects and the suspicion of his identity as a legendary great cultivator reincarnated, Luofu Zi was unsure of killing or capturing him.

“I can only take a long-term view.”

Luofu Zi’s expression remained calm as he pondered in his heart.

At the Nascent Soul level, without assurance of completely eradicating the opponent, one would not reach a life-or-death point to avoid endless troubles.

Back when facing Azure Phoenix True Monarch, he had absolute confidence in securing a kill.

However, the opponent’s methods were unexpected, allowing him to escape.

In his view, even if Azure Phoenix True Monarch survived, he would be half-crippled and pose no threat.

As long as he dared to appear again, he could be easily killed.

“Luofu Mountain Master, please take action!”

Hearing True Monarch Qing Cang’s plea for help, Luofu Zi furrowed his brows.

Although he had previously said that if unexpected danger arose and Yangming True Monarch wasn’t as severely injured as rumored, he would take action and they could rest assured.

But seeing Lu Changsheng’s strength and methods now, unsure of resolving him completely, he did not wish to escalate hatred, preferring to wait for the right moment.

“Nevermind.”

Reflecting upon the matter with Azure Phoenix True Monarch, his enmity with Yangming True Monarch had long been indirectly established.

If True Monarch Qing Cang and the others fell into Yangming True Monarch’s hands and were found to have come at his invitation, hatred would still escalate.

In such a case, it would be better to intervene and rescue True Monarch Qing Cang and the others.

This way, he could gather a few more allies for future attempts.

Besides, if today’s events were known, others would realize he manipulated True Monarch Qing Cang and others to probe Great Dream Immortal City but did not assist them, affecting his reputation and credibility upon spreading.

Luofu Zi looked calm as he stepped out of the inn.

“Luofu Mountain Master?” Bai Zhaozhao heard the name and her exquisite face showed a hint of surprise, aware of this top-level giant from the Southern Wilderness Northern Domain.

As the Holy Maiden of Tianyan Sect with the Bai Ze bloodline, she even knew that Luofu Zi was not a Northern Domain cultivator, but originated from the Central Domain.

Having offended someone, he had to flee to the Northern Domain.

She didn’t expect these five Nascent Soul cultivators to be linked to Luofu Zi.

If so, today’s conflict situation might escalate.

“However, with the strength of this Yangming True Monarch, he should be able to handle it.”

Bai Zhaozhao was not clear of Luofu Zi’s precise combat strength.

But from Lu Changsheng’s displayed power, she knew that even if he couldn’t defeat Luofu Zi, he wouldn’t be far behind.

Moreover, she suspected that Great Dream Immortal City had underlying methods.

For example, she suspected that within Great Dream Immortal City, there was a Pocket World Secret Realm…

True Monarch Qing Cang’s face twisted in agony, blood spilling from his lips, as he resisted Lu Changsheng’s Chaos Wanxiang.

Seeing Luofu Zi not responding or appearing, his heart sank deeply.

Realizing the other had no confidence in defeating Yangming True Monarch, he might not wish to intervene.

If not for the dire situation, he might have cursed aloud.

The other three beside him also felt heavy-hearted as Luofu Zi made no appearance, their expressions turning grim.

“Run!”

“Escape quickly!”

Earlier, they had thought of combining efforts to resist.

Now realizing they were no match for Yangming True Monarch and the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, the only way to survive was to run!

True Monarch Qing Cang hesitated not a moment, as the ancient towering tree behind him vanished suddenly, transforming into countless strands of blue-green light, spiraling around him, attempting to break the void and escape.

With his withdrawal, True Monarch Yin Lei was instantly grasped tightly by Yin Yang Qi Grasp.

In a short period, the five-strong Nascent Soul team was scattered, one captured.

The other three Nascent Soul True Monarchs saw True Monarch Qing Cang’s decisiveness and dared not delay, quickly breaking through the void to flee.

Yet, two among them were entangled by Hong Lian and the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, unable to escape instantly.

As for the third person, he saw a man in a snow-white, loose robe, spotless, holding a green longsword, quietly watching him.

“Xuanjian True Monarch!”

His expression turned dark, recognizing this white-robed man as Jiang Country’s former number one, the Crownless King.

He didn’t expect Xuanjian True Monarch not to be in Liang Country but in Great Dream Immortal City!

“I fell into a trap…”

At that moment, he seemed to understand why Luofu Zi didn’t show up.

“Fellows, since you’re here, why rush to leave? Didn’t you come to demand an explanation from this venerable one?”

Lu Changsheng looked at the four fleeing like stray dogs and said indifferently.

In his words, Soul Secret Technique, Swallowing God Eighteen Sounds was unleashed again, aimed at True Monarch Qing Cang.

Like True Monarch Yin Lei before him.

Facing Lu Changsheng’s soul technique, True Monarch Qing Cang suffered intense headache, his sea of consciousness soul resembling a lone boat in a storm, uncontrollable.

Lu Changsheng performed instant teleportation, appearing beside him, and stepped forward with great force.

“Bang bang bang—”

Even without fully unleashing his Fourth Rank Middle Stage physique, he crushed True Monarch Qing Cang’s body-protecting magic barrier.

The remaining three Nascent Soul cultivators were scared out of their wits by this scene, terror stricken in their hearts.

What kind of technique was this?

Previously, True Monarch Yin Lei and now True Monarch Qing Cang, both incapacitated in an instant.

However, just as Lu Changsheng broke True Monarch Qing Cang’s barrier and intended to seal his Nascent Soul Spirit Body, a surging, irresistible power of the void arose beside him.

Immediately after, a majestic voice came from Great Dream Immortal City.

“Yangming Daoist, please hold your hand.”

A tall, middle-aged man in a light yellow Daoist robe emerged from Great Dream Immortal City.

His black hair draped over his shoulders, tied with a light golden hairpin, robe fluttering, its corners embroidered with light golden mountain and river patterns.

At this moment, the embroidered mountains and rivers on the robe seemed alive, flowing with light golden hues, disregarding the city’s formation restrictions.
