Chapter 260: Chapter 226-227: Five-Colored Divine Light, Invincible Divine Might
Having settled his past karma, Xu Chang’an did not linger in Qingfeng for long.
He possessed many of Yanyue True Monarch’s resources. If he could liquidate them and turn them into Spirit Medicine and Elixirs, the Energy accumulated on his panel would rise once more.
In the Xuanyin Cultivation Realm, Xuanwu Pavilion and the Yanyue Sect had only two or three publicly known Nascent Soul True Monarchs. Even counting the hidden ones, the Human Race had, at most, fewer than five Nascent Soul True Monarchs in total.
With fewer than five Nascent Soul True Monarchs, how could Xu Chang’an quickly liquidate his assets and convert them into suitable resources?
It was impossible to quickly liquidate items that had belonged to a Nascent Soul True Monarch.
Therefore, if he wanted to sell off these resources, he would have to do so slowly and carefully. Besides, the Xuanyin Cultivation Realm simply didn’t have the right environment for matters concerning Nascent Soul True Monarchs.
With his current Late-stage Core Formation Cultivation, he could use a Concealment Spell to deceive all Core Formation Zhenren, preventing them from detecting his Demon Race identity.
If he supplemented it with a Divine Concealment Pill, he should be able to deceive even an Early-stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator.
’After all, thanks to my panel, my foundation is far beyond that of an ordinary Late-stage Core Formation cultivator. It’s comparable to a Nascent Soul Realm Great Cultivator. With the pill’s help, achieving this shouldn’t be difficult at all!’
’But the precondition for fooling an Early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator is that I can’t go all out in front of them. Otherwise, there will definitely be a flaw in my disguise!’
After weighing all these factors and considering his actual situation, Xu Chang’an made his decision.
He would travel to the Qingyang Cultivation Realm, which bordered Xuanyin.
The Qingyang Cultivation Realm, while not comparable to the Canglan Cultivation Realm from Xu Chang’an’s past life, was still considered a respectable Cultivation Realm.
According to the brief information he’d previously acquired, it was home to quite a number of Nascent Soul True Monarchs.
In that case, by proceeding slowly and carefully, he should be able to liquidate everything he had gotten from Yanyue True Monarch.
At that moment, the Yanyue Sect and Xuanwu Pavilion were at war with the two great mountain ranges, so there weren’t many Core Formation Zhenren guarding the rear of the Human Race’s territory.
Taking on the appearance of a young child, Xu Chang’an emanated the aura of an Early-stage Core Formation cultivator as he commanded a Magical Treasure, Flying in the Sky.
The two Cultivation Realms were extremely far apart. Flying at the speed of an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator, it could take three to five years to reach the Qingyang Cultivation Realm.
His current combat power was comparable to a Nascent Soul True Monarch’s. Yanyue True Monarch of the Yanyue Sect was severely wounded, and the two Nascent Soul True Monarchs from Xuanwu Pavilion were both in the Thundering Mountain Range.
Even if a hidden Nascent Soul True Monarch were to discover him, Xu Chang’an had no reason to be afraid.
However, less trouble was always better than more. So, despite his confidence, Xu Chang’an flew with extreme caution.
Along the way, Xu Chang’an passed through one of the Human Race’s Immortal Cities.
Yanyue Immortal City, administered by the Human Race’s Yanyue Sect.
Yanyue Immortal City was protected by a Quasi-Tier Four Array which, in addition to its normal Defense and Attack capabilities, also had a detection function.
Using his Concealment Spell, Xu Chang’an successfully entered Yanyue Immortal City.
This confirmed a suspicion he held.
Xu Chang’an stayed in Yanyue Immortal City for three days.
He didn’t risk trying to liquidate Yanyue True Monarch’s resources. Instead, he purchased some information regarding the Qingyang Cultivation Realm.
Furthermore, he learned some other news while in Yanyue Immortal City.
The Yanyue Sect, intending to secure a decisive victory in the Red Cloud campaign, had launched a massive offensive against the remaining Demon Race forces in the Red Cloud Mountain Range.
The Red Cloud Demon Race struggled to resist, barely holding on.
However, the arrival of a Nascent Soul True Monarch from Xuanwu Pavilion was the final straw that broke the Red Cloud’s defenses.
The Red Cloud forces began to rout!
Upon hearing this news, images of certain Demons and scenes from the past surfaced in Xu Chang’an’s mind.
’But this is the tide of war. Even though my combat power is comparable to a Nascent Soul True Monarch’s, I am powerless in the face of this conflict between two entire races!’
After leaving Yanyue Immortal City, Xu Chang’an resumed Flying in the Sky.
However, now that he was entering the heartland of the Human Race, he adjusted his outwardly displayed Cultivation down to Mid-stage Foundation Establishment.
Compared to Core Formation Zhenren, Foundation Establishment Cultivators were far more numerous and attracted much less attention.
Across the entire Xuan Yue Cultivation Realm, there weren’t that many Core Formation Zhenren. A strange Core Formation Zhenren would arouse the suspicion and wariness of local powers no matter where they appeared.
With his displayed cultivation aura lowered, Xu Chang’an’s flying speed naturally dropped by a significant margin.
Fortunately, he was in no hurry. He admired the scenery of the human territories as he traveled at a leisurely pace.
「Several months later.」
Xu Chang’an arrived at Xuanwu Immortal City.
Xuanwu Immortal City was controlled by Xuanwu Pavilion, and it was roughly the same size as Yanyue Immortal City.
Thanks to Yanyue True Monarch, he was not short on Spirit Stones.
Back in Yanyue Immortal City, he had exercised extreme restraint and purchased few resources to avoid drawing attention.
This time in Xuanwu Immortal City, he could afford to purchase more.
However, as soon as Xu Chang’an entered Xuanwu Immortal City, he sensed that the atmosphere within was off.
He found a Spirit Pavilion Restaurant and made some inquiries, only then learning the reason for the strange atmosphere.
A Nascent Soul True Monarch from Xuanwu Pavilion had fallen at Red Cloud Mountain!
Previously, the Yanyue Sect had launched a major invasion of the Red Cloud Mountain Range.
The Red Cloud Mountain Range as a whole was weaker than the Yanyue Sect, and despite having a home-field advantage, they could only barely hold their ground.
With the arrival of the Nascent Soul True Monarch from Xuanwu Pavilion, they suffered one crushing defeat after another.
But...
This string of defeats came to an abrupt halt when the Peacock King stepped forward to face the Nascent Soul True Monarch.
In that battle, the Peacock King, a Late-stage Core Formation cultivator, unleashed an unimaginable level of combat power.
With her Late-stage Core Formation Cultivation, she challenged a Great Cultivator of the Nascent Soul Realm, fighting a realm above her own!
They engaged in Magical Combat for hundreds of rounds and were completely evenly matched!
The Nascent Soul True Monarch from Xuanwu Pavilion used every technique at his disposal, yet he could do nothing to the Peacock King.
But that was far from the most shocking part of the battle.
The battle finally concluded with the death of the Nascent Soul True Monarch!
The Five-Colored Divine Light appeared, and the Nascent Soul True Monarch fell!
The Peacock King had established her supreme renown upon the life of a Nascent Soul True Monarch Great Cultivator!
