Chapter 843 - 389: Secrets of Xuantian, the Scarlet-Clad Remnant Soul

Chapter 843: Chapter 389: Secrets of Xuantian, the Scarlet-Clad Remnant Soul

Not much of a splash can be stirred up here.

"But this treasure is certainly extraordinary."

After this scroll is summoned, just like before, the remnant soul can transform into a Nascent Soul-level dharma image, unleashing a strike from a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The advantage lies in this: the remnant soul is not a dead thing, possessing the combat awareness of a cultivator. The threat degree of the same strike is incomparable.

However, the problem at hand is due to the influence of the soul-devouring curse, the opponent’s divine soul was greatly damaged, and the power that can be exerted is greatly reduced. It urgently needs him to nurture the divine soul with Profound Celestial Mana.

"And the two puppets obtained earlier."

Then, Lin Chang’an took out the two Tier Three puppets acquired earlier, revealing a smile.

These two puppets are both humanoid archer-like.

"These two Tier Three Middle Grade puppets, judging by the material traces, should belong to the Yin Soul Sect, and not crafted by Huang Tianxiao himself."

[Tier Three Lower Grade Puppet Master (Proficient 286/500)]

Over the years, he had made progress in puppet skills, barely reaching Tier Three status. Coupled with the inheritance from the Yin Soul Sect, he naturally saw it at a glance.

These two puppets weren’t completed within a century, they are at least five to six hundred years old.

"But there’s another urgent matter now."

Thinking of this, Lin Chang’an took a deep breath, stored the Phoenix Cry Bird in the Spirit Beast Bag, withdrew the array, and headed toward the direction indicated by the message sent by the Seven Kingdoms Alliance with the Cyan-Horned Bull.

...

In the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea, after Lin Chang’an fled with the treasure, Huang Tianxiao released an old ghost from his body in a rage.

For a time, ghostly energy filled, and the Core Formation cultivators of the Four Seas Commerce Association suffered heavy casualties.

The three Core Formation cultivators from the Seven Kingdoms Alliance were comparatively lucky or perhaps were marginalized from the beginning, but ended up striking it lucky.

Upon seeing the unfavorable situation, they immediately fled hastily.

When Lin Chang’an arrived leisurely with the Cyan-Horned Bull, he happened to encounter the remnants fleeing in disgrace.

"Mr. Lin, let’s go quickly, Huang Tianxiao used the Demon Cult’s secret treasure, the Yin Soul is devouring people..."

This encirclement of Huang Tianxiao was indeed a disastrous defeat; eleven Core Formation cultivators from the Four Seas Commerce Association, only four returned, and two were severely injured.

This truly hurt the foundations of the Four Seas Commerce Association.

And the three returning Core Formation cultivators from the Seven Kingdoms Alliance were even more fearful and thankful, purely lucky this time, also thanks to Meng Xinghai for pushing them out.

Meanwhile, the matter wasn’t concealed, as the events fermented and spread, numerous cultivators in the Outer Sea were shocked.

Huang Tianxiao, first under Nascent Soul, managed to repel the encirclement by facing more than ten Core Formation cultivators alone, instantly gaining fame in the Outer Sea.

This knowledge made Huang Tianxiao, hiding in the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea, feel even more frustrated.

Sometimes, having too much fame isn’t necessarily a good thing.

...

The encirclement of Huang Tianxiao made a sensation, letting this first under Nascent Soul gain fame again.

This time’s achievements silenced countless people, vaguely letting Huang Tianxiao somewhat secure the seat of the first under Nascent Soul.

Hearing of his subordinates’ encirclement and large defeat, True Monarch Lu of Bihai Palace was somewhat angry.

While the Profound Yin Demon Sect’s reputation soared in the Outer Sea for a time.

But following this period, various places in the Outer Sea saw the heinous acts of this first under Nascent Soul.

Whether it’s killing and looting or exterminating sects and clans.

Smart people can see at a glance; some events are separated by a distance of tens of thousands of miles, even committing three sect exterminations on the same day.

However, someone seemed to be fueling the fire behind the scenes, yet the name of first under Nascent Soul grew even more prominent.

...

After dealing with some personal matters, Lin Chang’an returned to Five Dragons Island.

Celestial Spring Peak.

"Finally, the complete refining of this treasure is done."

Inside the cave, Lin Chang’an slowly opened his eyes, gazing at the hovering scroll in front of him. The previously blurry and indistinct figure in red now appeared completely clear.

The person in the painting, barefoot, wearing a red gown, stands amidst an ink painting.

Even Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but think of the words ’unmatched beauty’ in his mind after seeing the true appearance.

But, it’s uncertain whether this beauty is inherent or part of the original image within this scroll magical treasure.

"Fellow cultivator, you can rest assured now."

A cold voice reverberated like flowing ice spring.

The red-clad woman within the scroll slowly emerged, her cheeks visibly carrying a hint of sickly frailness, yet somehow making her even more alluring.

"You’re too kind, fellow cultivator."

Seeing Lin Chang’an’s calm smile, the remnant soul in the red clad naturally knew what the other wanted.

Previously, young Huang Tianxiao, regardless of his talent, without the Profound Celestial Immortal Vine saving her, she naturally wouldn’t have revealed some truths.

Thus, she pretended to be an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator’s remnant soul all along, not even allowing him to refine the final seal of this magical treasure.

Upon returning, under the other’s guidance, Lin Chang’an finally refined this treasure completely.

This counts as the trust foundation for their cooperation.

"Seems fellow cultivator is recovering nicely recently."

Completely controlling this treasure lightened Lin Chang’an’s mood, his face beaming as he looked at this person.

While the red-clad remained silent, this person truly shameless, consistently guarded, even intending to soul search for all her heritage initially.

Had it not been impossible to do so, she would have long vanished.

Now showing such concern, the intention is obvious.

"Many thanks for the help, fellow cultivator."

Afterward, Lin Chang’an wiped his mind of any doubts, started inquiring about various cultivation challenges.

After all, with a superior mentor, not asking would be foolish.

In the days to follow, with the Secret Realm about to open, Lin Chang’an didn’t miss any opportunity for strength.
