Chapter 2109: Chapter 697: Farewell, Ayoudo! (3)

“Master.”

The Five Poisons Cult Leader cupped her hands in a bow towards Lu Changsheng, her eyes, aged yet authoritative beyond her years, carried a trace of awe.

Through the intelligence from the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, she had come to fully believe that Lu Changsheng was the ruler of the Central State Dynasty, a reincarnated Deity of Transformation.

Hence, any skepticism or arrogance she had before had completely dissipated, and she straightened her mindset.

“Ayoudo, has my business in the Vast Sand Illusion Realm affected your Five Poisons Cult?”

Lu Changsheng asked, knowing that the other must have received information about his achievements in the Vast Sand Illusion Realm.

If not, Ayoudo’s earlier gaze towards him couldn’t have carried that inexplicable respect.

“A few Nascent Soul Cultivators came visiting, subtly probing about my situation and yours, Master, but it was only a few questions, and did not cause any real impact.”

The Five Poisons Cult Leader spoke up.

After all, she herself was a Nascent Soul True Lord.

Other Nascent Soul Cultivators, even if they heard about her association with Yangming True Master, wouldn’t dare to confront her and demand answers.

Besides, the rumors about her and Yangming True Master were spread by Ming Sha True Monarch.

Whether it was true, their exact relationship was still uncertain.

No one would offend a Nascent Soul Cultivator over such trivial matters.

Moreover, she had been in the sect these days; even with two or three Nascent Soul Cultivators visiting, she remained unafraid.

“That’s good.”

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, not wanting the other to be heavily affected by his affairs.

“But you must be careful, Master. According to the intelligence I’ve gathered, some forces are secretly fanning the flames, deliberately publicizing the situation between you and Azure Phoenix True Monarch…”

“This might draw the attention of some major forces, and Nascent Soul Middle Stage Cultivators to you both.”

The Five Poisons Cult Leader continued.

With the combat prowess Lu Changsheng and Azure Phoenix True Monarch displayed in the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivators were simply no match for them.

Unless multiple Nascent Soul Cultivators set a trap for an ambush.

But such a possibility was unlikely; it was more likely to attract the attention of some Nascent Soul Middle Stage elders to investigate their situation.

“Publicizing the situation between me and Azure Phoenix True Monarch…”

Lu Changsheng’s eyes narrowed slightly; he was genuinely unaware of this matter, so he asked, “Do you know which forces are behind this?”

“No idea. It might be Beast God Mountain secretly fanning the flames, but just one Beast God Mountain shouldn’t have such vast influence…”

The Five Poisons Cult Leader shook her head, then asked, “Master, is there any particular reason for your visit?”

“Yes, I came here partly to bring Mili back, and partly to ask if you have any source for [Infant Transformation Elixir], and is there any unowned Fourth Rank Spiritual Land.”

Lu Changsheng nodded in response.

The breakthrough to Nascent Soul is quite a big affair, especially since he planned to break through to the Heavenly Nascent Soul.

Under such circumstances, it’s best to break through using an unowned Spirit Vein.

As for borrowing the Spiritual Land of the Five Poisons Cult to break through…

Even from previous observations, this place wasn’t suitable for him. If he dared to break through, Ming Sha True Monarch would definitely come to disturb and affect him at the first opportunity.

Moreover, Lu Changsheng reckoned that even the Heavenly Sword Sect wouldn’t want to see Yangming True Master break through to Nascent Soul!

Let alone attempting to break through to the Heavenly Nascent Soul!

“Infant Transformation Elixir!? Unowned Fourth Rank Spiritual Land?”

Ayoudo was surprised, thinking to herself that perhaps her master was preparing to break through to Nascent Soul?

But judging by his capabilities, breaking through to Nascent Soul should be a breeze, right?

“Master, unless obtained through a Secret Realm or Ancient Relic Site, in normal cases, Jin Kingdom doesn’t even have any Infant Transformation Elixirs available.”

“To obtain Infant Transformation Elixir, one has to attend a Nascent Soul trade fair held by several top-level forces, where there might be a chance to exchange for the materials, and then commission someone to refine it.”

Ayoudo replied somewhat helplessly.

The scarcity of Nascent Soul Cultivators is closely related to the rarity of Infant Transformation Elixirs.

Like the Coagulation Crystal Elixir, many forces can produce it steadily.

But the Infant Transformation Elixir, not to mention the difficulty in refining, just the cultivation of the medicinal herbs takes at least a thousand years.

Under such circumstances, besides top tiers of Nascent Soul forces, it’s practically impossible for an ordinary Nascent Soul force to obtain an Infant Transformation Elixir. They can only slowly accumulate.

For her own break through to Nascent Soul, she did it without an Infant Transformation Elixir, relying on the Nascent Soul Secret Technique and several Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects instead.

“As for unowned Fourth Rank Spiritual Land…”

Ayoudo shook her head, saying: “Once a Fourth Rank Spiritual Land is discovered, it typically has an owner. There’s basically no such thing as an unowned Fourth Rank Spiritual Land.”

“If you, Master, aim to break through to Nascent Soul, it’s best to stay clear of the Southern Wilderness Northern Domain region. Currently, many forces are focusing on you and Azure Phoenix True Monarch. As soon as you attempt a breakthrough, the leakage of magic power mechanism might cause trouble to arise.”

For a moment, Ayoudo found it troublesome to locate a site for breaking through to Nascent Soul.

If not for the Vast Sand Illusion Realm incident, the other could have easily attempted a breakthrough in the Five Poisons Cult.

But since he’s aiming to break through to the so-called Great Dao Nascent Soul, which will cause disturbances far beyond the Human Dao or Earth Dao Nascent Souls, it will likely attract the attention of many forces, some may come to interfere… posing a certain danger.

“As expected…”

Lu Changsheng was mentally prepared for this. He pondered slightly and said, “Let’s head to your Five Poisons Cult first.”

“Alright.”

Ayoudo agreed, indicating that many forces are currently focusing on Yangming True Master, so it’s best to avoid openly appearing in the Five Poisons Cult to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Then she grasped Lu Changsheng’s palm, using the Array Plate, they broke through the Great Void directly into the depths of the Five Poisons Cult.

“Master, our Five Poisons Cult has a [Nursing Infant Gu] currently being nurtured. It would take about a hundred eighty years to mature. If needed, I can accelerate its cultivation through a Secret Technique, allowing it to mature in somewhere within fifty years, at which point it might increase the odds of a Nascent Soul by ten percent.”

The Five Poisons Cult, being a Nascent Soul force, although lacking an [Infant Transformation Elixir], still possesses some unique Secret Techniques for increasing the probability of achieving Nascent Soul.

Such as this [Nursing Infant Gu], modeled after the effects of the Infant Transformation Elixir.

It can aid Core Formation Cultivators in enhancing Essence, Qi, and Spirit, nurturing a Nascent Soul fetus, and stabilizing the Nascent Soul Origin!

“Nursing Infant Gu?”

Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow, aware that the Five Poisons Cult’s Gu Dao could utilize Gu Insects as Techniques, Magical Treasures, or even Elixir Medicines.

To be able to increase the chances of achieving Nascent Soul by ten percent speaks to the rarity of this [Nursing Infant Gu].

But even with accelerated cultivation through a Secret Technique, it still takes fifty years to mature, which is undeniably slow.

With his experience in Foundation Establishment and Core Formation, Lu Changsheng knew that unless it was the most top-notch Superior Spiritual Object, it would be of little use to him, perhaps even a hindrance, in achieving Nascent Soul.

“No need, I was just inquiring.”

Lu Changsheng said with a smile, not pushing the matter further. He accompanied Ayoudo to the hall, inquiring about her comprehension of the “Myriad Calamities Poison Spirit Secret Scripture” and whether she had any confusion, to which he offered guidance and instruction.
