Chapter 909 -404: Six Years, Heading to White Wall City

The Grand Elder of the Sect, Cheng Qingsong, wore a look of satisfaction as he handed the five Corpse Puppets to his disciple.

This Junior Brother Teng, who was once a fellow disciple of Fairy Bingdie, now held the greatest hope within the Sect for Nascent Soul Formation, having been cultivated and nurtured for many years.

“Thank you, Master.”

This Junior Brother Teng, with his handsome demeanor, couldn’t help but show gratitude upon receiving these protective measures.

“Alright, this old man’s lifespan is running out, and the Sect may have to rely on Bingdie and you in the future.”

Upon hearing the name Bingdie, Junior Brother Teng couldn’t help but display a trace of excitement.

Naturally, this scene didn’t escape the eyes of his master, yet the Grand Elder, Cheng Qingsong, hesitated momentarily before continuing:

“To conceal Bingdie’s Talent back then, she deliberately kept a low profile, even spreading rumors of an engagement with you, all in preparation for her Nascent Soul Formation in secret…”

In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, any Nascent Soul Seed is targeted by rival forces, so every power does its utmost to hide them.

Fairy Bingdie was kept deeply hidden before her Nascent Soul Formation, her presence unknown to many. However, the tumultuous phenomena when she broke through revealed clues of her emergence.

“Master, this disciple understands.”

Seeing the reproachful gaze of his master, Junior Brother Teng showed a hint of embarrassment.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Qingsong merely waved his hand with a smile:

“The previous methods used for concealing are inconsequential. Now that your Cultivation is at the Nascent Soul stage, if you can become the third Grand Elder within the Sect…”

Although Cheng Qingsong didn’t elaborate further, the meaningful glance he gave was enough to convey everything.

At that time, within the Sect, you two young Nascent Soul Cultivators are bound to support each other moving forward.

Whether you can achieve something more depends entirely on your personal efforts.

After all, strength is paramount in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. He is simply this Bingdie’s Uncle, not her Master, thus some matters cannot be forcibly arranged.

“Alright, go and prepare well. In a few months, the auction in White Wall City will start, and by then, several key ingredients for the Nascent Soul Pill will be available.

I just hope you don’t disappoint your Master, nor let down the Sect.”

Seeing his Master preparing protective measures for him as well as resources for Nascent Soul Formation, Junior Brother Teng couldn’t help but show gratitude once more.

“Alright, you may leave now.”

With a wave of Cheng Qingsong’s hand, Junior Brother Teng respectfully chose to take his leave.

In the grand and imposing hall, the Grand Elder Cheng couldn’t help but reveal a hint of awkwardness on his face.

“Nephew, don’t blame your Uncle.”

In the void, the figure of True Monarch Bingdie slowly emerged from behind the hall.

“Uncle is indeed a good Master.”

True Monarch Bingdie walked out with an indifferent expression, clearly somewhat displeased with her Uncle for using her as motivation for a disciple.

Though she understood, achieving Nascent Soul Formation requires more than a resolute Dao Heart, it also requires obsession.

Obsession is like a double-edged sword, giving Heart Demons the opportunity to arise, but it can also serve as a sharp blade to break barriers.

However, True Monarch Bingdie was most dissatisfied with how her Uncle had disappointed her Master.

According to what she learned from her Master, Uncle Cheng had once had a beloved Dao Companion during his Core Formation stage, who perished in a disaster.

Back then, her Master and Uncle were the only two Nascent Soul Cultivators in the Sect, and were even encouraged to be together by the previous Grand Elder.

Yet, after the previous Grand Elder’s passing, Uncle Cheng remained devoted to his deceased wife and never remarried, leaving her Master to pass with regrets.

If there were no feelings between them, it would be another story, but things ended up like this.

Being a Nascent Soul Cultivator, marrying several wouldn’t be a big deal, which was why Bingdie was displeased.

“Nephew, Uncle merely wanted to firm up the young one’s resolve; there was no other intention.”

As if caught in a cycle, this time, with him in the position, the Grand Elder Cheng stroked his white beard awkwardly while sighing inwardly; at this moment, he finally understood how his Master felt

“I understand Uncle’s good intentions. I just fear it could become an obsession for Junior Brother Teng. For the White Wall City auction, it’s better to prepare more.”

Bingdie didn’t want to delve into the past of the elders and thus shifted the focus to the current situation.

But when mentioning the White Wall City auction, the Grand Elder Cheng showed an unprecedentedly grave expression.

“The path to Nascent Soul has blocked countless geniuses and heroes throughout history. Changfeng has his destiny, if he fails, it would be fate.

At least the Sect has you, Nephew. But this time at the auction, the more important task is to investigate a particular piece of news.”

“News!?”

This caused True Monarch Bingdie to display a look of confusion. It was the first time seeing such a grave expression on her Uncle’s face.

“The news about the Insect Demon!”

“What!”

Upon mentioning the Insect Demon, True Monarch Bingdie’s complexion changed, revealing her shock.

Due to her physical condition, she often remains in secluded cultivation and isn’t up-to-date with some information.

“Indeed, it’s the Insect Demon that caused such tragedy to our Sect!”

Discussing the Insect Demon filled the Grand Elder Cheng with deep hatred.

Once a part of the six Demon Dao sects, the Spirit Beast Sect was originally focused primarily on insect control while also mastering Beast Taming. Their expertise included nearly hundreds of types of ancient Spirit Insects, achieving unprecedented prosperity.

Then the Insect Demon emerged, coveting their numerous Secret Techniques in insect control, infiltrating the Sect and seizing countless of their Secret Techniques.

Furthermore, it devoured all the miraculous insects preserved over ten thousand years completely, causing them to lose power and eventually be driven out by the Beast Taming branch, resulting in the founding of the Spirit Beast Sect, now part of the six Demon Dao sects.
