Chapter 910 - 293: Heaven Weeps Blood, Fall of the Nascent Soul (Part 5)

Luo Tianxing said solemnly, "Are you curious about which Nascent Soul True Monarch has fallen?"

Shen Wen’an and Wei Qiuling exchanged a glance and both nodded.

After all, a Nascent Soul True Monarch is a top expert in the entire Cangmin Sea Region, unless the pseudo-Deities from the Dao Source Secret Realm appear.

The fall of such a person would even cause Heaven to rain blood, naturally piquing their curiosity.

Luo Tianxing sighed, "Remember the last time I told you that the old man’s disciple betrayed him and stole a Supreme Treasure used to forge the Dao Source Secret Realm?"

Shen Wen’an nodded.

He remembered this well, knowing that because of this event, Great Prosperity True Monarch Xu Xiu had uncharacteristically initiated a blood sacrifice to hasten the collapse of the Yangnao Land’s Dao.

"His name is Zhang Zeduan, the old man’s registered disciple."

"After stealing the Supreme Treasure with outsiders, he even performed a self-inflicted deception to buy time for his accomplices to break open the treasure."

"But the ruse was exposed immediately, and he was imprisoned."

"I thought the old man, with his ruthless methods, would torture him for a thousand years."

"But for some reason, he seemed to have lost patience and killed him directly..."

Wei Qiuling and Shen Wen’an listened, feeling a deep sense of lament.

That was a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

In the outside world, such a presence could establish a sect and become the patriarch, yet he was killed so easily?

"Just how terrifying is Great Prosperity True Monarch’s power..."

Wei Qiuling murmured in disbelief.

Luo Tianxing sighed with a bitter smile.

"His power..."

"Let’s put it this way, as long as he doesn’t storm into someone else’s Dao Source Secret Realm to provoke pseudo-Deities, no one in the Cangmin Sea Region is his match."

"Wen’an, boy, you know Celestial Dragon Temple. Do you know how powerful it was back in the day?"

Shen Wen’an shook his head.

He only knew that the Celestial Dragon Temple was sealed under Dragon-slaying Valley, but didn’t know its exact strength.

Luo Tianxing’s eyes carried a hint of reminiscence as he said, "In those days, Celestial Dragon Temple had eight pseudo-Deities."

"Abbot Saluo Bodhisattva of Celestial Dragon Temple schemed to seize the old man’s treasure, even bringing the entire Celestial Dragon Secret Realm to Yangnao Land."

"While the Underworld and Tribulation Fire Sect masters held everyone else back, all eight pseudo-Deities emerged from the Dao Source Secret Realm to ambush the old man."

"At that time, the old man and I stood together against the foe, and even with all our might, we only managed to take down Saluo Bodhisattva with mutual destruction."

"Yet the old man fought seven pseudo-Deities who had emerged from the Dao Source Secret Realm on his own, and in the end, he killed them all..."

As Luo Tianxing’s words fell, the cave was engulfed in silence, and the sound of sharp intakes of breath could faintly be heard.

The pseudo-Deities, once outside the Dao Source Secret Realm, their strength would fall to Nascent Soul Perfection.

But reaching the Divination Transformation Realm, their strength was certainly not something ordinary Nascent Soul Perfection could compare to.

Great Prosperity True Monarch defeated all seven, slaying the seven Bodhisattvas of Celestial Dragon Temple!?

This was simply too unbelievable!

While the three chatted, the phenomenon of heaven weeping blood outside had dissipated.

Luo Tianxing sighed heavily, "Though the Shen Family has ties with him, you must act carefully, and never touch his bottom line."

"Otherwise, even if I sacrifice my life, I won’t be able to protect you."

"Let’s go, when I have obtained the wonders left by the Seven Sages Mountain Secret Realm and Dragon Taming, I will find you in Yunshui City."

Shen Wen’an and Wei Qiuling numbly cupped their hands, watching Luo Tianxing’s figure vanish like a breeze.

The dark clouds overhead had dispersed, and the sky returned to its clear state.

The couple once again rode the winds toward Flame Lake City.

"When we enter the city, if Zhongyi and the others ask about the phenomenon just now, it’s better not to mention the fall of the Nascent Soul."

Gazing at Flame Lake City in the distance, Shen Wen’an suddenly advised.

For low-tier cultivators, the news of a Nascent Soul’s fall is too shocking, easily disturbing their heart spirit and affecting their state of mind.

Wei Qiuling nodded, and the couple quickly arrived at the front of Flame Lake City.

They saw the City Defense Array of Flame Lake City activated to its maximum, with He Zhongyi and Shen Xiuyun leading the city’s cultivators in a state of high alert, Wei Qiuling frowned slightly.

"What are they doing..."

"There must have been a misunderstanding because of the blood rain from the sky just now."

After a brief thought, Shen Wen’an came to the front of the array.

"It’s Third Uncle!"

On the city wall, He Zhongyi noticed Shen Wen’an outside the array and immediately ordered the array to be opened.

Once inside the city, after everyone paid their respects, Shen Wen’an glanced at the array’s light shield overhead and said indifferently, "Have them retract the array, and maintain it at its previous state."

He Zhongyi, hearing this, hesitated briefly before recounting the phenomenon just now.

"Third Uncle, what was that blood rain from the heavens just now?"

Shen Wen’an shook his head slightly, explaining that they hadn’t encountered any danger on their journey, and there was no need to waste Spirit Crystals maintaining the full operation of the array.

He Zhongyi didn’t insist and immediately ordered the array to return to its normal protective state.

"What about those Western Wilderness Barbarians outside the city?"

On the way to the Magma Lake, Shen Wen’an asked curiously.

He Zhongyi had mentioned in his transmission to Yunshui City that there were many Western Wilderness Barbarians surrounding Flame Lake City.

With Luo Tianxing’s entrustment, he intended to invite those from the Barbarian Race into the city.

But he hadn’t seen any of the Barbarian Race when entering the city earlier.

"They must have been scared off by the phenomenon from the sky earlier," Shen Xiuyun explained.

Shen Wen’an nodded, "I’ll go check on the Fire Phoenix, while Zhongyi, take Xiuyun outside the city to find those from the Western Wilderness Barbarian Race and bring them into the city for settlement once you’ve found them."
