At this moment, the Yinming Sect Master and Lu Quanzhen were counting personnel.
Seeing Ayoudo and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master walking side by side, half a step behind Lu Changsheng, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
For thousands of years, the three major Demon Sects of the Jin Kingdom have always been allies.
Although due to the strategic reasons of their Supreme Elder, there have been rifts between the three sects.
But in the face of major danger, they always united against the mon threat.
Unexpectedly, just after their Supreme Elder passed away, the leaders of the other two major Demon Sects of the Jin Kingdom colluded with the Yangming True Monarch.
However, being the master of a sect, he was perceptive.
Merely from the posture of the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master and Ayoudo half a step behind Lu Changsheng, he perceived a crucial piece of information.
The two Nascent Soul True Lords in front of him might have already submitted to the Yangming True Monarch!
Otherwise, even if there was a power disparity between equals, they wouldn’t position themselves this way.
For a moment, the Yinming Sect Master felt like his heart was being overturned like a vast ocean, stirring up enormous waves that were hard to calm.
It was hard to imagine that in just one day, the heavens of the Jin Kingdom had changed.
The Yiming Ghost Sect of the three great Demon Sects perished, and their Supreme Elder died.
The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master and the Five Poisons Cult Leader both submitted to this Yangming True Monarch!
"Greetings True Monarch, Sect Leader, Sect Master!"
The Yinming Sect Master dared not overthink and quickly stepped forward to salute respectfully.
Lu Quanzhen was also surprised.
Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Corpse Sect was also settled by his father, so he immediately stepped forward to greet them.
"Hmm."
Lu Changsheng lightly nodded and introduced them to Lu Quanzhen, saying this was his son.
"This young one greets the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master and the Five Poisons Cult Leader!"
Lu Quanzhen had heard of the Five Poisons Cult Leader and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master long ago, but it was his first time meeting them in person today, so he was respectful.
After all, no matter what, he was just a Core Formation cultivator.
He couldn’t rely on his father’s power and status to put on airs in front of two Nascent Soul True Lords.
Ayoudo and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master naturally knew about the grudge between Qu Changtian, the son of Yangming True Man, and the Yiming Ghost Sect.
It can be said that the enmity between the Yiming Ghost Sect and this Yangming True Monarch escalated entirely because of the Lu Quanzhen in front of them.
The two of them sized up Lu Quanzhen, noticing that he was quite extraordinary.
His magic power mechanism was deep, like a black hole, or a boundless sea.
Moreover, his physique was robust, just like his father’s, with magical dual cultivation!
Furthermore, they could tell that Lu Quanzhen’s appearance was not real due to disguise and camouflage.
However, considering the current situation, they naturally wouldn’t pry into his true appearance.
They simply praised him: "Indeed, a tiger father has no dog son. Your son is extraordinary, clearly a favored son of heaven, a dragon among humans, with a boundless future."
As they spoke, the two of them each took out a gift from their storage rings as a meeting gift for Lu Quanzhen.
This was both a gesture of etiquette and a display of goodwill.
"Thank you, seniors."
Lu Quanzhen did not refuse, maintaining a respectful yet posed demeanor, neither humble nor arrogant.
The nearby Yinming Sect Master and others watched with envy.
They deeply appreciated the benefits of having a True Lord father.
They couldn’t help but sigh internally, contemplating how many fewer detours and hardships they would face in their cultivation journey if they had a father or elder at the Nascent Soul Stage.
...
Lu Changsheng instructed Lu Quanzhen and the Yinming Sect Master to continue their tasks, taking Ayoudo and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master to inspect Yiming Ghost Sect.
He expressed that if they saw anything they wanted or needed, they could speak up directly.
He also inquired with the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master about the general situation of the Heavenly Corpse Sect and presented his current needs.
Handing the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master a list of the heavenly and earthly treasures he required.
"A secret treasure to restrain Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies!?"
Upon hearing Lu Changsheng’s requirement, the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master felt a chill run through his heart.
It’s rare for Nascent Soul cultivators to fight to the death; besides cherishing their lives, the main reason is the Nascent Soul exit!
After all, defeating and killing are two different concepts!
At the Nascent Soul Stage, killing and pletely killing are also two different concepts!
Among Nascent Soul cultivators of the same rank, one might defeat the other’s magic body.
But to pletely annihilate the opponent’s Nascent Soul Body, that’s as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
It requires a group ambush, laying down a heaven-and-earth net, and preparing secret treasures to restrain and affect the Nascent Soul Spirit Body.
But such secret treasures are extremely rare, a part of the sect’s heritage, and no one is willing to lend them.
Now, seeing Lu Changsheng’s primary need is treasures that restrict and confine Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies, how could the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master not be apprehensive?
Thinking of this, he suddenly asked, "Master, do you know if Ming Sha’s Nascent Soul Body... escaped?"
Regarding the matter of the ’Upper Envoy,’ he had his suspicions, knowing that Ming Sha True Monarch had close ties with the Beast God Mountain.
If Ming Sha True Monarch escaped back to the Beast God Mountain, it would inevitably be an unstable factor.
"Rest assured, Ming Sha’s Nascent Soul Spirit Body has already been devoured by the Golden Peng."
Lu Changsheng, dressed in a mysterious robe, hands behind his back, said calmly.
"What!?"
The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master was startled and shocked.
Never would he have thought that Ming Sha True Monarch not only was killed by this Yangming True Monarch but even his Nascent Soul Spirit Body was pletely annihilated.
But considering the fact that Ming Sha True Monarch’s [Myriad Ghosts Blood Pool] had also fallen into Lu Changsheng’s hands, he felt relieved, believing these words.
After all, if Ming Sha True Monarch had his Nascent Soul exit, he would have definitely taken this heirloom treasure with him and used it to escape.
"Master’s divine skills are vast,"
The Heavenly Corpse Sect Master cupped his hands in salute, his expression respectful: "Our Heavenly Corpse Sect currently doesn’t have secret treasures to confine Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies."
"But our sect has a kind of refined corpse called the [World-Burning Devouring Flame Corpse], which, once it advances to the fourth rank, has the divine skill [Heaven Refining Furnace] that can restrain and affect Nascent Soul Spirit Bodies."
"However, this kind of demon corpse is extremely difficult to refine. Not only does it require the body of a fourth-rank Red-scaled Gluttonous Beast, but also nine kinds of Heavenly Spiritual Fires..."
