Chapter 1826: Chapter 611: Heavenly Spider Emissary, the Sect Hierarch Requests Your Presence!_3 However, the arrival of three Nascent Soul True Lords and the terrifying aftermath caused by both sides’ combat greatly impacted the Fierce Five Elements Divine Sword Formation, resulting in the severe injury and tragic death of many Energy Refining and even Foundation Establishment cultivators. "Wuwuwu, Father!" "A’Ku!" "I survived, I survived!" Many cultivators held the corpses of their fallen companions, weeping and sobbing. Some were cheering and shouting, celebrating having survived this frontier war and earned enough military merits. Yet, after the celebrations ended, sorrow and weeping remained the main theme. This frontier war lasted four and a half years, claiming too many lives. "Every war represents the blood and tears of countless low-level cultivators..." Lu Wangshu, pale and with chaotic mana, looked at the situation before her with a heavy heart. This battle, though it didn’t require cultivators to charge and kill, was absolutely the bloodiest one for the cultivators. In the presence of a Nascent Soul True Lord, Energy Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators are nothing but ants! Even the aftermath of mana, a portion of the residual waves from the Fourth Rank forbidden great formation, could annihilate many. Having been in this frontier war for a year, she deeply understood the brutality of war, knowing how beautiful everyday life was. "According to historical records, almost every few hundred or hundred years, there would be a frontier war, and this process also involves wars among countries..." Lu Wangshu was not a person of benevolence and pity, but she was affected by this atmosphere of sorrow and tragedy. She found Lu Family disciples and others. Lu Qingxuan, Lu Chensha, Lu Yunfei, and others more or less were injured, their faces pale and ghastly. As for the twenty Energy Refining cultivators, two had perished, and six were severely injured. This was because the Qingyun Sect, considering Lu Changsheng and Xiao Xiyue, had given special treatment, making the pressure on their formation point not too heavy. In some other formation points, cultivators below the Energy Refinement Late Stage basically all perished. ... People’s joys and sorrows differ. For low-level cultivators, this battle was extremely tragic. But for those above Core Formation, this war was a great victory. The appearance of Yangming True Master greatly reduced the casualties of the Four Great Immortal Sects in the final battle, especially for Core Formation levels. Otherwise, according to the previous plan, if Demonic Path cultivators came to disrupt, someone had to hold the line. "Later on, two Core Formation cultivators must be stationed here..." In the Qingyun Sect’s council hall, Supreme Elder Ancient Cloud Immortal was discussing rewards and aftercare tasks. Although the frontier war was over, someone still needed to be stationed to sort out the mountain and earth veins, clear evil qi and poison miasma, open up spirit fields and spirit lands, and establish formations, among other things. "In the future, if you encounter Yangming True Master, be cautious and never offend..." After finishing the discussion, Ancient Cloud Immortal gave a last word of warning, explaining the situation of the final battle. "Yangming True Master fought against the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master!?" Xiao Xiyue and Chu Qingyi learned about the great battle from their Supreme Elder, their beautiful eyes filled with suspicion and worry. They were only at the Initial Stage of Core Formation, and in the final battle, could only maintain the operation of the great formation from afar. Although they could observe the situation with divine sense, the fluctuations were too astonishing, making it difficult to see clearly while maintaining the formation. However, both saw a terrifying millstone, black and white intertwined, overturning yin and yang, in the sky, recognizing it as the magic aura of Lu Changsheng. Especially Chu Qingyi. She had seen Lu Changsheng use the Yin Yang Mixed Hole Great Mill against Ghost Bat True Master in the Yiming Ghost Sect. But even then, the power was not even a tenth of its current level. Even so, Lu Changsheng had been weak for a long time. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖 Now, for him to unleash such a terrifying technique... "Hmm, do not spread this matter." Ancient Cloud Immortal spoke a few words, then signaled to adjourn the meeting, allowing everyone to rest. This battle had exhausted almost all Core Formation cultivators, leaving their mana chaotic. "Sister, rest assured, Changsheng is fine." Xiao Xiyue, practicing the Supreme Forgetful Love Technique, had a keen spiritual sense and noticed that her usually aloof and proud senior sister had a trace of worry between her brows, occasionally glancing at Changsheng True Master beside her. "Ah..." Chu Qingyi’s heart trembled upon hearing her junior sister’s words. What did her junior sister mean by that? Could it be that her junior sister knew about her relationship with Lu Changsheng... For a moment, Chu Qingyi’s mind was in turmoil, not knowing what to do. "It’s alright, I’ll head over first." The usually decisive Sword Immortal Child said somewhat flusteredly, then left quickly. However, upon hearing Xiao Xiyue say that Lu Changsheng was fine, her anxious heart calmed down. Previously, upon seeing the Yin Yang Great Mingling Millstone, she was almost certain it was Lu Changsheng, and her heart was constantly worried. Xiao Xiyue watched her senior sister leave, knowing that not only was Lu Changsheng interested in her senior sister, but her senior sister also had feelings for her own husband... "Hmph!" Although she had long guessed that her husband and her senior sister had a close relationship and that they couldn’t abandon each other, having an unmentionable relationship, she still felt a tinge of jealousy in her heart after it was confirmed. She glanced at the Three Treasures Incarnation beside her. However, with Lu Changsheng out of range of her divine sense, this incarnation was much more wooden, only capable of simple responses, always consuming energy. Xiao Xiyue did not argue with an incarnation, and went to find her daughter, Lu Wangshu. ... Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven. Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, feeling energized and his flesh brimming with strength. The Yin Yang Great Dao Golden Core shone anew with a purple-gold glow, and the Yin Yang Energies flowed. The medicinal effect of this Mysterious Dark Fruit was excellent. After refining it, not only had his body just about fully recovered, but his cultivation and mana, physical physique, and Sea of Consciousness had also seen significant improvements. "No wonder there are War Cultivators in the Cultivation world, constantly improving their cultivation realm through battle and the great terror of life and death." "As long as one has enough Heavenly and Earth Treasures and rare Spiritual Medicine to ensure a quick recovery after severe injuries, this indeed is a good way to improve." Lu Changsheng could feel that his improvement was not only attributed to the Mysterious Dark Fruit but also related to this battle. His body could also unlock its potential under the burst of battle. Glancing at the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng beside him, Lu Changsheng stood up, ready to return to the front line to retrieve his Fourth Rank Demon Pill. ... Five Poisons Cult, Heavenly Spider Peak. In a grand hall adorned with intricate worm and Gu designs. Nangong Mili looked at her son Nangong Minghuang, who was stacking blocks and jade scrolls on the desk in front of her. For some reason, she felt a vague sense of irritation and unease. "Could it be that something has happened to the Sect Hierarch?" As the Heavenly Spider Envoy of the Five Poisons Cult and a close confidant of the Five Poisons Cult Leader, she was privy to many of the core affairs. She knew that Jin Country and Liang Country had reached a cooperation agreement and that the Sect Leader had gone to Jiang Country to interfere with the Heavenly Sword Sect’s expeditionary war. "Zee zee zee—" Just then, the White Jade Cicada on Nangong Minghuang’s shoulder suddenly let out a series of crisp calls. "Annoying, keep it up and I’ll crush you!" Nangong Mili was quite disdainful of this White Jade Cicada. She had spent a significant amount of resources to acquire this Crystal Cicada Gu, to enhance her son’s talent and link it with his life, to later shield him from doom. However, who knew that this Crystal Cicada Gu would undergo a mutation during gestation. Normal mutations would be fine, but her research revealed that this White Jade Cicada had the effect of warding off evil and dispersing ghosts, harmonizing Yin Yang. Moreover, this White Jade Cicada prevented her son Nangong Minghuang from possessing other Gu insects. As the Heavenly Spider Envoy of the Five Poisons Cult, it was utterly unacceptable for her son’s Gu insect’s effect to be warding off evil, if this got out! What irritated her even more was that when she was laying the foundation for her son Nangong Minghuang, she found that many Demon Path treasures were instinctively rejected by his body. "That wretched man spoke of Minghuang flourishing in the Five Poisons Cult, yet he rejects Demon Path treasures!" Thinking of this, Nangong Mili could not help but feel a surge of anger, believing that all this was orchestrated by Lu Changsheng. Although she had not experienced any anomalies during her year and a half of pregnancy and felt that Lu Changsheng didn’t possess such abilities. But considering Lu Changsheng’s extraordinary means and rapid growth, she not only associated it with him but believed he did it on purpose. Even now, looking at her son’s name, Minghuang, she felt it was meant as a mockery by Lu Changsheng, for being upright and grand. "That damnable man." If Lu Changsheng were here, she would want to bite him several times to vent her rage. "Mother." Nangong Minghuang looked up and called to his mother, his eyes like golden amber glimmering with an awe-inspiring righteous light. "Mm." Nangong Mili gazed at her son, still chubby with baby fat, offering a gentle smile. Her irritation dissipated somewhat as she stacked blocks with him. Just then, an elder’s voice came from outside the hall. "Heavenly Spider Envoy, the Sect Leader requests your presence."
