Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family

Chapter 1087: 242: A Change in the Secret Realm, Ghost Cultivator! (2)

This is normal.

They all belong to the elites of their sects, instilled from the very beginning of their cultivation with the notion of being irreconcilable with the Demonic Path.

Throughout their growth in cultivation, many have either personally experienced or witnessed incidents involving the Demonic Path.

Like the Demon Subjugation Order several decades ago, many participated, heard of it, and firmly believed themselves to be righteous, with the mission of slaying demons and vanquishing devils.

However, when Lu Changsheng saw the youth disguised by Nangong Mili shouting passionately in response, a strange feeling welled up in his heart.

“Hmm.”

As a Core Formation Immortal, Venerable Lingfeng’s spiritual sense was extraordinary, and he naturally understood that most of the clan cultivators here were seasoned veterans.

Thus, he didn’t pay much attention to these people.

If a war between the righteous and demonic paths truly broke out, would these clan cultivators even have the luxury to refuse?

Besides, once war begins, it could also serve as a stepping stone for clan cultivators to rise in status.
If you don’t fight, someone else certainly will!

But in the very next moment.

“Boom, boom, boom

Another series of earth-shattering sounds erupted, making the entire secret realm quake violently as if an earthquake had struck.

Venerable Lingfeng’s face suddenly changed dramatically.

Not just him—Chu Qingyi, Venerable Huxiao, and another Core Formation Immortal all shared the same sudden, drastic change in expression, exchanging glances.

Immediately, Venerable Lingfeng looked at everyone present and said, “Now that the Demonic Path cultivators are attacking, the matter of comprehending the Heavenly Monument will be postponed for the time being. First, you will retreat with me.”

“Could the situation have taken a turn?”

Looking at the scene before him and the expressions of the four, Lu Changsheng sensed that something was wrong.

If the Four Great Immortal Sects had already laid down a Heaven-and-Earth Net to trap and kill intruders, how could it have turned out like this?

Indeed, the Four Great Immortal Sects could ensnare and slaughter by luring people in.

But if the Demonic Path had sent people, they could also block the exits of the secret realm, trapping prey like turtles in a jar.

Moreover, mixed within the group of present cultivators were a fair number of Core Formation experts from other countries.

If this group colluded with the individuals outside, it would spell major trouble.

In an instant, Lu Changsheng became even more cautious.

Many of the cultivators present also began to sense that something was amiss.

Yet, at this moment, no one dared to slack off or voice doubts. They all obediently followed Venerable Lingfeng’s guidance.

Moments later, Venerable Lingfeng summoned an array plate and formation flags, directing everyone to designated positions.

He promptly commanded the disciples of the Four Great Immortal Sects to arrange themselves systematically, forming an overwhelming battle formation through tokens and secret techniques.

“Battle formation!”

Lu Changsheng observed how the disciples of the Four Sects synchronized their auras until they exuded a force so powerful it seemed capable of swallowing rivers and mountains. It was clearly some kind of battle formation.

The Four Sects’ Foundation Establishment disciples had each formed their own formation. If they went all out, they might even hold their own against a Core Formation Immortal.

“Damn it, this Venerable Lingfeng clearly knows there are Demonic Path Core Formation experts mixed in here!”

Lu Changsheng thought to himself as he observed the strategic placements.

The clan cultivators, including himself, were intentionally positioned out to the side.

Meanwhile, the disciples of the Four Great Immortal Sects had taken the central and most fortified positions, their formations arranged in four directions.

It was evident that Venerable Lingfeng was aware of the presence of foreign Core Formation experts among them but hadn’t pinpointed their exact identities.

“If an unexpected situation really arises, I’ll have no choice but to disguise myself as a Core Formation cultivator from another country.”

Lu Changsheng murmured to himself, keeping an eye on the previously suspicious cultivators.

By now, he was almost certain that the current chaos in the secret realm was connected to those individuals.

“Boom, boom, boom

The secret realm trembled more intensely, nearly to the point of collapse, with the surrounding spiritual energy becoming increasingly chaotic.

“Venerable Immortal, may I ask if staying here poses any danger to us?”

“If the Demonic Path is attacking, we are willing to contribute our efforts!”

A moment later, a bold clan cultivator couldn’t contain himself, gritting his teeth and addressing Venerable Lingfeng.

“Outside the secret realm, Xuanjian True Monarch is standing guard. It won’t be long before these Demonic Path thieves are dealt with.”

Venerable Lingfeng replied calmly, his expression composed.

“Xuanjian True Monarch!”

“What? Xuanjian True Monarch is actually standing guard outside the secret realm!”

“Could all this commotion be Xuanjian True Monarch engaged in a fight?”

Hearing this name, everyone gasped in surprise, their eyes filled with reverence and awe.

Xuanjian True Monarch, the ruler of the Jiang Country Cultivation Realm, the Ocean-Calming Divine Needle!

No one would doubt the strength of this Nascent Soul True Lord.

Upon hearing that this True Monarch was holding the line outside the secret realm, those who were previously anxious and fearful quickly felt reassured.

Even Lu Changsheng was taken aback by this revelation.

Yet, deep in his heart, his worry only deepened.

If Xuanjian True Monarch had come to oversee the Tianyuan Secret Realm and had caused such an immense disturbance, it meant that the Demonic Path—or perhaps other factions—might also have a Nascent Soul True Lord present.

And for a Demonic Path True Monarch to dare infiltrate the Jiang Country Cultivation Realm, they must be thoroughly prepared.

“The Tianyuan Secret Realm has drawn so many Core Formation immortals here. There must be some powerful force orchestrating this behind the scenes. Could it be this very faction?”

Lu Changsheng couldn’t believe that his first journey into a secret realm had turned into such an ordeal.

“Damn it, and I haven’t even comprehended the Great Dao insights from the Heavenly Monument yet!”

Thinking of his original purpose for coming here, Lu Changsheng felt deeply frustrated.

But given the current circumstances, he had no choice but to wait and see how events unfolded.

“Rumble, rumble, rumble

The tremors of the secret realm grew increasingly violent, as if the entire earth were collapsing and crumbling.

Just then.

“Boom!”

A deafening sound, like the sky shattering and the earth splitting, erupted.

In an instant, the sky changed color, and thunder roared.

“No, the Heavenly Monument has collapsed!”

Someone cried out, looking toward the monument, their voice trembling with fear.

They saw the towering Heavenly Monument, once standing like a mountain, now breaking apart under the tremors and crashing down catastrophically.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh

As the monument fell, a vast, ancient, gray-black mist roared upward like a gaping abyss, swallowing the boundless spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

The sky resounded with thunderous roars, as if demons were shrieking and ghosts were wailing.

“Kill, kill, kill!!!”

“I hate, I hate, I hate!”
