Chapter 357



357 Nascent soul state level two

Lu Qing was at the nascent soul realm level two.

In fact, he could have reached this level long ago.

He had long since reached the great circle of the original infant stage level one and only needed a period of quiet cultivation to complete this breakthrough that was not considered a bottleneck.

However, the White ghouls heading south had indeed interrupted his plan.

After all, Chaohe, Yan Ling, and the others were planning to kill a peak golden elixir realm cultivator. Lu Qing was more or less worried. Hence, he had to put in some effort and keep an eye on the situation.

After that, he went to the ice field and obtained a new ancient series ability.

After that, he finally had the time to properly cultivate.

As expected, he completed this breakthrough in just two months of cultivation.

The whole process seemed to be quite smooth. He didn’t encounter any other difficulties and passed it smoothly.

Obviously, this so-called bottleneck between the small levels was not a ‘bottleneck’ to him at all. It could only be regarded as a routine.

Lu Qing spent some time to stabilize his realm. After thinking for a while, he didn’t have anything else to do. For example, he could speed up his cultivation or better use the means of time, such as cultivating with the help of his luggage from outside the starry sky, or the spirit gathering temple. He hadn’t passed that time yet, so he couldn’t use them.

Then he would just cultivate normally.

Five years passed by in a flash. Lu Qing’s cultivation level steadily advanced. He didn’t see the possibility of entering nascent soul state level three yet, but he wasn’t worried at all. This was because he had never felt any signs of his cultivation stopping. This proved that the effect of the combination of various immemorial type talents was powerful.

Following that, he only needed to cultivate steadily and not worry. Entering the third level was a sure thing. When the time was right, he could cultivate outside the starry sky or in spirit-gathering holy temple, and he might be able to break into the third level immediately.

After being bored for a while, Lu Qing decided to go out for a stroll.

He didn’t have to run too far, nor did he want to use his consciousness form. He walked out of the chamber with his real body and strolled around Yuyan mountain. He greeted every clan member he saw with a smile. Although he still had the appearance of a handsome young man, his image was like an old man strolling on the street with his hands behind his back.

This was actually not the first time. He had not been in closed-door cultivation for the past five years. Every time he cultivated, he would come out for a breath of fresh air.

In the past, when the descendants of the clan saw this old ancestor going out, they would all be very respectful, wishing they could kneel on the ground to pay their respects.

This was very normal. For example, for an ordinary family, the ancestors who had built the family in the past suddenly came out one day to make a fuss.

However, after seeing so many of them, she became like that.

There was still respect, so how could he not respect the old ancestor? But to put it bluntly, it would not be like in the past, where he would have to bow three times and nine times when he saw her.

Even if they wanted to do so, Lu Qing would not be willing to do so. It would be too troublesome.

However, trouble really came.

While Lu Qing was strolling on the mountain, Lu mingling came to his door.

Now, Ming Ling’s position in the family was quite high. He had taken on a lot of work and was considered a core member of the family.

He had looked for Lu Qing because he wanted to report a piece of information from Yan city to his ancestor.

The Jinyiwei had found a very important clue about the faceless society.

About a year ago, the embroidered uniform guards had figured out the identity of the leader of the faceless society. His name was Bai Yuan. In the past, there were almost no rumors of him in the cultivation world of Yan Kingdom.

Under normal circumstances, this should be very rare.

A golden core cultivator would have at least a few hundred years of cultivation. Furthermore, talent, resources, and opportunities were all indispensable. After such a long period of time, it was normal for him to have some achievements and have a reputation.

Even if he was a golden core cultivator secretly supported by the Li royal family, he should be the same. For example, the black crow Daoist was supported by the royal family, and he was quite famous.

However, none of this happened. This only proved that either Bai Yuan was very secretive in his actions in the past, not leaving any traces behind. Otherwise, he was using someone else’s identity when he was doing some things.

But no matter what, he could no longer hide.

When the White ghouls went south, the faceless society wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Lu family. However, he was a few moves behind and had never played.

As a result, the faceless society was met with a great calamity. The black crow Taoist was one of the faceless society’s top combatants. The fact that he had died in the North was a very heavy blow.

In addition, the faceless society had also infiltrated the Imperial court’s Army in the North. Some of these grains of sand were the faceless society’s own men, while others were the Yan Kingdom’s local supporters who were connected to them.

The faceless society was also greatly affected by the fact that all of these people had been captured in one fell swoop. They had suffered heavy losses and lost a lot of connections with other places. This directly represented the rapid decline of the faceless society’s ability to cause trouble in all parts of the country of Yan.

In the past five years, the Lu clan dynasty’s control of Jin Prefecture and Ji Prefecture had become much easier. They replaced local officials, contacted local forces, and brought them under their rule.

At the same time, the huge gains in the Northern Territory also allowed the embroidered uniform guards to obtain a lot of information about the faceless society.

The direct descendants of the faceless society were usually protected by a seal. If they couldn’t get anything out of the seal, a white flame would ignite from their bodies and burn them to death.

However, not all of the members of the faceless society had restrictions placed on their bodies. Although they didn’t know as much as the faceless society’s direct members, there were still many of them. When all kinds of information were put together, they would still be able to gain a lot.

The other one was the black crow Taoist.

The black crow Daoist had died on the spot. However, a dead person might be able to speak.

Among the various spells in the cultivation world, there were divination techniques that could divine some useful information from the information of corpses. There were some psychic spells that could summon some of the black crow Taoist priest’s broken soul Fragments and obtain some information.

With all of this information combined, the Imperial Secret Service was finally able to catch the tail of the faceless society.

After five years of investigation, they had found Bai Yuan’s true identity and even located his location recently.

The Emperor of Great Yan, Lu chaoxi, was already mobilizing his men to attack and kill the leader of the faceless society, who was also Mister Bai Yuan.

Other than him personally taking action, Li Yanling and Lu mingchao, who had returned to Yan city, would also take action. Mo ruhai and hai Sande were also there.

That was five golden core cultivators.

However, it was still a little unstable.

Even the black crow Daoist was at the late gold core realm. As the leader of the faceless society, Bai Yuan might be even stronger. Perhaps, this was a master at the peak of the jiedan stage.

If that was the case, five golden core cultivators might not be enough.

Lu chaoxi had already contacted Yunxiao sect regarding this matter. He hoped that Yunxiao sect could send someone over. It would be best if they could send a nascent soul realm cultivator to help resolve this matter.

The Yunxiao sect agreed to help but did not send their nascent soul cultivators. They only sent two golden elixir realm cultivators, one of whom was also at the peak of the Golden elixir realm.

But even so, this matter was basically in the bag.

How could the seven golden core cultivators not be able to take down Bai Yuan?
