Chapter 1829: Chapter 612: Five Venoms Sect Hierarch’s Plot, Fourth-Tier Demon Core Acquired!
“This child is not simple… Although he doesn’t have a special physique, he somewhat resembles an Immortal Root…”
To practice cultivation, one must possess a Spiritual Root.
Apart from Spiritual Roots and special spiritual bodies, there are many other factors, such as the higher probability of descendants of Nascent Soul Immortals and Nascent Soul True Lords possessing Spiritual Roots compared to ordinary people.
Some great divine power practitioners have the effect of their cultivation techniques and divine skills integrated into their bloodline, much like demon beasts, inheriting them to their children and family descendants.
These extraordinary traits are known as Immortal Roots and Immortal Bones.
If these individuals cultivate their ancestor’s heritage, they achieve twice the results with half the effort.
“This child should have inherited the cultivation technique divine ability traits of Yangming True Master. However, unless one practices certain bloodline secret arts, typically the cultivation technique divine ability of a Nascent Soul Immortal cannot be inherited through the bloodline. At the very least, a Nascent Soul Cultivator might have some possibility.”
“To say so, Yangming True Master was likely a Nascent Soul True Lord who fell to Core Formation. Only in this way can he, in the Core Formation stage, explode with Nascent Soul battle power and confront Yan Wujang!”
“Moreover, his offspring with Nangong Mili, the first child being a top-level spiritual body, and the second possessing an Immortal Root, further prove that this person was extraordinary at his peak.”
“But what was his purpose in having children? For strategic plotting? Or perhaps unable to return to his peak, he wanted to leave behind a bloodline inheritance?”
The Five Poisons Cult Leader pondered incessantly.
Beside him, Nangong Mili, seeing her sect hierarch constantly observing her son, felt somewhat anxious.
After a moment of contemplation, the Five Poisons Cult Leader lightly touched with a white and tender palm, taking a drop of Nangong Minghuang’s heart blood, and said to Nangong Mili: “Heavenly Spider Emissary, if Yangming True Master comes, notify me immediately and tell him I mean no harm and wish to meet him.”
Upon finishing, ignoring the suddenly crying Nangong Minghuang, he disappeared and left.
“Yes, Sect Hierarch!”
Nangong Mili’s exquisitely beautiful demonic face turned a bit pale. She bowed towards the hall entrance and then embraced her son, speaking softly: “Don’t cry, don’t cry.”
Her son’s life was in the hands of the Five Poisons Cult Leader as he took a drop of heart blood from Nangong Minghuang.
Not only her son, Nangong Minghuang.
As the Heavenly Spider Emissary of the Five Poisons Cult, if she dared to betray, the Five Poisons Cult Leader could use her life soul lamp to destroy her soul completely.
Even if she had Core Formation Sixth Layer cultivation level, and could struggle somewhat, it would harm the origin of her soul.
“Lu Changsheng…”
Before this, she planned for her son Nangong Minghuang to grow up within the Five Poisons Cult.
But now, she earnestly hoped Lu Changsheng would take her son away.
With the connection of her daughter Nangong Yaoyao, the Five Poisons Cult Leader couldn’t hurt her, but her son Nangong Minghuang was uncertain.
“What was that aura just now?”
At this time, Nangong Mili recalled the moment when the Sect Hierarch used the Soul-Bewitching Divine Ability on her, a refreshing aura suddenly surged out from the Sea of Consciousness Soul.
Yet, no matter how she observed her Sea of Consciousness, she couldn’t find any trace of that Qi mechanism.
“Could it be that scoundrel left a contingency plan?”
Nangong Mili lightly bit her red lips, her heart missing Lu Changsheng immensely, wishing for his arrival.
But the latter only countered the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master; if he came to the Five Poisons Cult, it would be extremely dangerous.
Especially with the Five Poisons Cult’s methods mainly involving poisonous Gu, they are hard to guard against.
If the Sect Hierarch used a Love Gu or similar method on Lu Changsheng…
“Sigh…”
Nangong Mili’s heart paused, realizing Lu Changsheng might not fear such methods.
The opponent emanated a powerful Gu insect aura, making ordinary Gu insects useless, possibly even causing backlash.
However, thinking of their sect hierarch being a Nascent Soul Cultivator, Nangong Mili felt a bit worried.
After all, the transformation of Tier Four Gu Worms would be challenging for even Lu Changsheng to resist, right?
…
“Nangong Minghuang… Yangming True Master…”
The Five Poisons Cult Leader gazed at the essence blood in her hand thoughtfully.
She took Nangong Minghuang’s heart blood not to threaten Yangming True Master through the child.
She simply wanted to use this blood as a medium to attempt divination on Yangming True Master’s situation, hoping to glean some useful information.
“If this person was indeed a Nascent Soul Middle Stage, or even a Late Stage old monster, he must possess top-level fortuitous opportunities, heavenly and earthly treasures.”
“If I can control him, I can not only obtain such an opportunity but also potentially advance further, and even use him to conquer the Heavenly Corpse Sect and Yiming Ghost Sect. Then, in the upcoming Great Tribulation, strive for opportunity and ascend to the peak!”
The Five Poisons Cult Leader’s delicate face was indifferent, her eyes shimmering with five-colored crystal brilliance.
The cultivation technique divine ability of the Five Poisons Cult was not adept at direct combat. If they were to face a cultivator of the same level one-on-one, they might be weaker.
However, with prepared forehand, or when strong against the weak, they have immense advantages, making them extremely unpredictable!
“No matter what, this Yangming True Master is still a Core Formation cultivator for now. As long as he doesn’t break through to Nascent Soul, I have a chance…”
The Five Poisons Cult Leader opened her mouth and spat out a five-colored, vividly patterned scorpion-shaped Gu insect.
This Gu was called the Seven Extremes Gu.
It could transform into Power Gu, Qi Gu, Heart Gu, Poison Gu, Dark Gu, Slave Gu, Love Gu.
Among them, the Love Gu could only be used on one person, and used once.
Even a Nascent Soul True Monarch would be affected if infested.
For so many years, there was no chance for a Nascent Soul True Monarch, and ordinary cultivators were not appealing.
Now seeing Yangming True Master, she gradually formed an idea.
As long as she invites him through Nangong Mili, dispelling his guard, she has confidence in controlling him.
“However, this Yangming True Master practices magical dual cultivation, with a physical body constitution extraordinarily resistant to Gu poisons. So some preparation is still needed.”
The Five Poisons Cult Leader pondered with extreme caution, fully treating Yangming True Master as a Nascent Soul Cultivator.
