Chapter 604: Chapter 602 Nascent Soul Early Stage vs Nascent Soul Early Stage
“Junior Brother Ning, you actually… slew a Nascent Soul Late Stage Great Demon?” True Monarch Du’e had an expression of disbelief.
“It’s a long story.”
Ning Daoran said, “Actually, it wasn’t solely my achievent. It was a joint effort with several other Nascent Souls and a Nascent Soul level demon beast to besiege that great demon. The reason I could claim credit was largely due to a bit of luck. If the others hadn’t exhausted a large amount of the demon’s Essence Qi, I wouldn’t have had such an opportunity.”
True Monarch Liu Yun nodded, saying that explanation made sense.
“You both worry too much.”
Ning Daoran smiled calmly, “I’m very aware of my own combat strength. Even if I exerted myself fully, with the help of my entire family, at most I could only slay a Nascent Soul Middle Stage demon beast.”
“Slay a Nascent Soul Middle Stage demon beast?”
True Monarch Du’e was slightly startled, thinking Junior Brother Ning is indeed formidable, I don’t have such capability.
True Monarch Liu Yun said, “That’s actually quite normal. Fellow Daoist Ning has a rare talent, especially profound in the realm of cultivation techniques, almost mastering every technique he learned to perfection. Additionally, Old Lu and Little Bai are Nascent Soul Early Stage demon beasts, so theoretically, teaming up to subdue a Nascent Soul Middle Stage demon beast is indeed possible.”
“Exactly.”
Ning Daoran said, “As for facing a Nascent Soul Late Stage demon beast alone, I wouldn’t even dare to imagine it; it’s simply impossible.”
True Monarch Du’e and True Monarch Liu Yun nodded in agreent.
Ning Daoran secretly pondered, now that Little Bai has ford a Nascent Soul, the Ning Family Army’s strength has greatly increased. If they were to face a Nascent Soul Late Stage demon beast again, perhaps by outnumbering it, there could be a thirty percent chance of victory. The likely outco would still be to use a Fourth-Order Divine Speed Talisman to escape with all their might.
This sea expedition to slay demons could be slightly more advantageous than the endeavors at Jiulong Island.
With both True Monarch Du’e and True Monarch Liu Yun’s combined strength, they are not inferior to Long Ji Monarch and Jing Hong True Monarch. True Monarch Du’e and True Monarch Liu Yun are long-ti friends, completely trustworthy, and together they could unleash a powerful force, perhaps making the challenge against a Nascent Soul Late Stage Great Demon not impossible.
…
Half a month later.
The three Nascent Souls had rested and recovered to peak strength. At this ti, the Sea Dragon Immortal Boat was advancing northward along an increasingly narrow seaway, following the predetermined route to the Taixu Immortal Realm.
“This strait…”
Ning Daoran released his Divine Sense to explore the terrain on both sides. The Sea Dragon Immortal Boat passed by islands and landforms, and it was necessary to traverse the strait ahead to reach the deep sea.
“This is the Iron Horn Gorge.”
True Monarch Liu Yun, opening a sea chart purchased at great expense from Guiru City, said, “The Iron Horn Gorge is a critical area, but since few cultivators travel to the Taixu Immortal Realm, it remains an ungoverned zone.”
“Not necessarily.”
Ning Daoran’s Divine Sense had already detected so auras, saying, “Fellow Daoists, be cautious, there’s soone guarding this Iron Horn Gorge!”
“Interesting.”
True Monarch Du’e, with arms crossed, laughed, “Most Immortal Boats passing through the Iron Horn Gorge are heading to the Taixu Immortal Realm; anyone daring enough to venture there is at least a Nascent Soul. Who would dare to trouble a Nascent Soul knowingly?”
“Hence, the opponent is prepared; we must proceed with caution!”
Ning Daoran furrowed his brows, using his Nascent Soul Divine Sense to quickly search beneath the waters of the Iron Horn Gorge. He soon discovered a Concealing Breath figure, a massive entity hidden beneath the rocks, blending its aura with the surrounding water patterns.
However, it was still spotted by Ning Daoran.
“There is a Nascent Soul Middle Stage Green Jiao underwater.”
Ning Daoran said calmly, “Its demon Qi isn’t very strong; it should be the Spiritual Beast of a Great Cultivator.”
“Nascent Soul Middle Stage Green Jiao…”
True Monarch Du’e narrowed his eyes, a cold gleam flashing through them, “Could it be Qinglan True Monarch, that old man…”
“Qinglan True Monarch?”
True Monarch Liu Yun frowned, “Isn’t he supposed to have disappeared for years, reportedly deceased?”
“Not necessarily!”
At that mont, the Sea Dragon Immortal Boat sped forward, approaching the gorge entrance.
Right then, figures continuously rose from the island reefs on both sides, auras of Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators stretching across, numbering over a hundred. The leader was a sage-like elder in a green robe.
“It’s indeed old Qinglan!”
True Monarch Du’e crossed his arms, sneered, “After so many years apart, to think we et here, quite coincidental indeed.”
Saying this, True Monarch Du’e directly transmitted a sound ssage to Ning Daoran and True Monarch Liu Yun, “Fellow Daoists, it seems this villain has beco a robbery cultivator in the depths of the Endless Demon Sea, raiding here with his clan and disciples… He was originally a cultivator from Sangyu Country and has a blood feud with from years past. I hope you two can lend a hand to eliminate this villain!”
“Oh?”
Ning Daoran furrowed his brows, “I wonder what deep enmity exists between Brother Du’e and him?”
“Alas, it’s a long story. In short, we must kill him, agreed?”
“Agreed!”
Ning Daoran imdiately nodded, as he trusted True Monarch Du’e, who was straightforward and couldn’t tolerate evil, and generally wouldn’t deceive people.
At this mont, True Monarch Liu Yun slightly opened her lips, transmitting a ssage to Ning Daoran, “Fellow Daoist Ning, if I’m not mistaken, True Monarch Du’e once had a Daoist couple nad Master Yu i. Long ago, when Taoist Du’e first attempted to break through to Nascent Soul but suffered backlash to his body, descending to the Golden Core Middle Stage, Master Yu i departed in search of spiritual dicine to heal his heart ridian. She later perished in Sangyu Country, reportedly at the hands of Qinglan True Monarch!”
She hesitated, sighing, “It’s said Master Yu i suffered greatly before her death… Qinglan True Monarch is extrely cruel, hence the animosity between Taoist Du’e and Qinglan True Monarch is irreconcilable! Were it not for this, Taoist Du’e wouldn’t be in his current state of indulgence and disregard.”
“I understand.”
Ning Daoran furrowed his brows, “That Qinglan True Monarch is a scoundrel; he definitely won’t leave here alive today.”
“Yes!”
True Monarch Liu Yun’s eyes also glead with a hint of killing intent.
Above the Iron Horn Gorge, Qinglan True Monarch chuckled calmly, waving a hand, causing the waters at the gorge entrance to beco completely still. He said indifferently, “This place now belongs to , since Taoist Du’e has entered the trap, why not leave your life here.”
As he spoke, Qinglan True Monarch glanced at the two on the Sea Dragon Immortal Boat without much concern.
True Monarch Liu Yun’s Nascent Soul Middle Stage aura wasn’t strong; she wasn’t particularly proficient in fight techniques.
As for Ning Daoran, his aura was extrely stable, exuding an everlasting vitality; he was clearly a cultivator of the Nourishnt Cultivation School, not adept in fight techniques.
On Qinglan True Monarch’s side, he himself was a strong Nascent Soul Middle Stage, along with a newly minted Nascent Soul chief disciple, plus the Nascent Soul Middle Stage Green Jiao in the water, they could definitely annihilate everyone on the boat.
After weighing his strengths, he imdiately transmitted instructions to his disciples to prepare for action.
“Alright then…”
True Monarch Du’e’s eyes turned red, “In that case, let’s settle old scores once and for all!”
“Attack!”
Qinglan True Monarch shouted, and the tribulation cultivators on both sides unleashed their treasures towards the Sea Dragon Immortal Boat while waves surged, and at least dozens of Golden Core Stage spiritual beasts launched an assault from the water.
“Du’e, face your death!”
Qinglan True Monarch summoned a long sword of Spiritual Treasure level, sweeping mightily into the air, transforming into a giant sword dozens of ters long that slashed from above!
“Peng!”
The sword cleaved down on the Seven Treasures Heavenly Umbrella, scattering spirit light everywhere!
The two Nascent Soul Mid-Stage individuals quickly began a fierce battle; both shared a blood feud, leaving no hand unspared, every move targeting the vital points of the other!
Ning Daoran watched clearly; the two were evenly matched Nascent Soul Mid-Stagers, unlikely to determine a victor in a short ti.
So he simply placed his hand behind him and gracefully stepped forward, looking towards the many tribulation cultivators.
“So be it.”
Among the crowd, a brazen man in a red robe gracefully stepped out, exuding a Nascent Soul Early Stage aura, looking at Ning Daoran from afar, sneering, “Nascent Soul Early Stage against Nascent Soul Early Stage, it’s not like I’m bullying you!”
“Oh?”
Ning Daoran’s gaze remained calm.
“I am the chief disciple of Qinglan Ancestor, my na is…”
“Shut up!”
Ning Daoran was utterly uninterested in his chatter, his body surged violently through space, sternly, “You’ve annoyed greatly, so you may die now!”
“You!”
The Nascent Soul Early Stage individual was taken aback, seeing the void before him crushed almost instantly, Ning Daoran’s powerful punch transford into a blood-colored dragon coming to devour!
“Not good!”
He hastily shouted, summoning an ancient treasure-level wooden shield in defense, while yelling, “Junior brothers, co together, slaughter this villain, quickly!”
In that mont, he realized completely that he alone could not be his match.
“Peng~~~”
With a loud explosion, a shockwave spread from the two, the ancient treasure-level wooden shield humd under Ning Daoran’s Dragon Demon Power-filled punch, Essence Qi dissipated from its surface; with a few more punches, even this ancient treasure-level shield might shatter!
“Such heavy punch force…”
The opponent’s gaze grew cold, “Are you a Mixed Elent Realm martial artist?!”
“The dead don’t need to know these things.”
Ning Daoran’s body lowered, surrounded by lightning, disappeared in place just as the others’ attacks fell, reappearing above the chief disciple, delivering a fierce punch from above!
“Impossible!”
The chief disciple shouted, barely able to muster a wisp of spirit light, and then “Peng” a massive crash ensued, instantly sent crashing down by Ning Daoran’s punch, crashing through three large reefs and spitting blood in a sorry state.
Never did he dream that Nascent Soul Early Stage against Nascent Soul Early Stage, he would lose so quickly!
“I… I…”
He slowly rose, Essence Magic Power continuously surging from within him.
In the air, Ning Daoran raised a finger, and said indifferently, “Die.”
…
“Puff puff puff~~~”
In the air, countless Golden Silk Swords erged without warning, continuously piercing through the chief disciple’s body, the background turned blood-red, leaving only the scene of the chief disciple’s body shattering.
