Rumble!

In Celestial Yang City, at this moment, a myriad of radiance burst forth from the direction of the Prince Mansion, shooting straight into the sky!

The entire Celestial Yang City, and even the vast Changkong stretching thousands of miles around, brimmed with mystical phenomena, endless auspicious clouds emerged, converging towards Celestial Yang City, while a sea of Spiritual Qi seemed drawn by a dreadful vortex, flooding in from all directions like torrents towards the city.

Breaking through the Nascent Soul causes a massive commotion!

Even cultivators a thousand miles away from Celestial Yang City could easily sense the fluctuations of Spiritual Qi in the air at this moment.

...

Celestial Yang City.

A mighty pressure unfurled, an aura surpassing the Core Formation Stage raged, leaving everyone in the city trembling with fear.

Especially as the entire Celestial Yang City was shrouded by this fluctuation, in the sky, the phenomena abruptly transformed, like an endless ocean surging above the city, and amidst the vast waters, a figure indistinctly sat regally.

"It's begun..."

"Is this the phenomenon of breaking through to Nascent Soul? It's truly astonishing, suffocating everyone under its weight..."

"Once the Nascent Soul emerges, who can contend with it? Even in the entire Great Li Dynasty, the strongest are but Nascent Soul experts. Once King Jingbei breaks through to Nascent Soul, he is likely capable of claiming the imperial throne..."

People marveled!

...

Zuo Mansion.

Li An was also closely observing.

"It's near..."

While feeling the external fluctuations, he was also sensing Gu Hong's vital energy.

Gu Hong was also nearing the threshold of Core Formation.

"Master, why haven't you favored me these past few days... I came up with a couple of new tricks, wouldn't you like to try something new, master?"

Ma Xiaorong approached him, saying, "And master, when will you start breaking through, it's been over a year..."

She seemed puzzled.

Her master's cultivation level hadn't changed at all.

"Soon..."

Li An replied calmly.

"You learned two new tricks? Very well, let me see..."

Ma Xiaorong, smugly, began to demonstrate her "cultivation" skills, while saying to Li An, "Master, I've heard that breaking through to Core Formation is very dangerous. Although master will surely succeed, some things can't be too prepared for..."

"Ah... what if master is no longer here in the future, won't the mansion be in chaos? I think master should make a will soon, hmm~ right?"

Li An sneered internally, Ma Xiaorong really was rooting for his death.

Hoping he'd die, and she could inherit his estate?

"Alright, I'll write a will now..."

Li An smiled faintly, yet suddenly grasped Ma Xiaorong's throat.

"Master... you!"

Ma Xiaorong's face immediately turned a liver color, looking at Li An in horror!

Li An's eyes were already filled with Celestial Demon aura, his Demon Skill began operating madly, Ma Xiaorong involuntarily turned into a blood puppet.

A few moments later.

Li An completed his first full display of Demon Skill!

Ma Xiaorong, lying on the bed, had completely become a blood puppet, startlingly, even her appearance had changed to resemble Li An.

Li An dressed her, a thought manipulated her, and Ma Xiaorong sat up, directly controlled by Li An.

Substitution!

When the Demon Sect personnel arrived, they would surely be misled.

Li An himself would turn into Ma Xiaorong's likeness to seize the opportunity to flee.

Everything was ready.

He checked his surroundings again to ensure the array and everything else was in place.

The next day.

Boom!

In Gu Hong's quiet room, a surge of vital energy suddenly erupted.

The aura of breaking through to Core Formation!

For a moment, above the Zuo Mansion, auspicious clouds gathered, and the grand array, adjusted long ago by the Third Princess, continuously channeled Spiritual Qi, greeting Gu Hong's consumption!

Her Core Formation breakthrough had commenced.

Only, at this moment in Celestial Yang City, the momentum of the Nascent Soul breakthrough overshadowed everything, so hardly anyone paid attention to the Zuo Mansion, this grand ceremony of Core Formation went unnoticed.

...

"Reporting to the master, my father has begun breaking through to Nascent Soul, also, there are fluctuations from the Core Formation breakthrough at the Zuo Mansion."

Third Princess Li Weixue reported respectfully.

Life-taking Horse-faced sat atop, nodding: "Don't worry about your father's side, you keep an eye on Li An!"

"Once he successfully forms his Core, he might attempt to breach the array to escape, make sure to stop him."

"Once the matters at the Prince Mansion are settled, I'll personally attend to the Zuo Mansion."

Hearing this, the Third Princess respectfully withdrew.

After she left.

Life-taking Horse-faced's chest suddenly cracked open, blood qi spurted out, forming a blood-shadowed humanoid, it was a woman, her figure more substantial than before.

"Master..."

Life-taking Horse-faced seemed deflated, aging decades in an instant, yet his face had a trace of excitement: "Soon, you shall gain the innate Demon Body..."

And he would also heal his own afflictions.

"Yes."

The blood-shadowed woman spoke coldly, "Once Li An successfully forms his Core, it will be my resurrection..."

"By then, All Heavens shall tremble once more!"

Her eyes bore a terrifying gleam.

...

Another half a month passed.

Rumble rumble rumble!

It was a night, the moon hung high, yet its light couldn't penetrate Celestial Yang City.

The entire Celestial Yang City was shrouded in auspicious clouds, and within those clouds, suddenly erupted a seven-colored radiance.

In that radiance, a figure, constructed by a myriad of auspicious Qi and Spiritual Qi, had taken shape.

Dominating the four directions!

"King Jingbei!"

"King Jingbei!"

The people cried out, everyone knew, this was a precursor to the Nascent Soul's formation.

And then, boundless Spiritual Qi, along with that human figure, surged towards the Prince Mansion.

The final moment had arrived.

It was at this precise moment—

Boom!

Violent tremors suddenly erupted outside Celestial Yang City.

"We're under attack!"

"Someone is attacking the city!"

The guards of King Jingbei's Mansion rode out in all directions, and the city guards on Royal City stood ready.

The Prince Mansion had long prepared contingency plans for all this.

Simultaneously, above the Prince Mansion, an elderly figure instantly appeared, an old man, yet emanating Nascent Soul aura, he coldly said: "Ancient Ink of Blood Essence Sect is here, whoever leaves now can still escape—"

At these words, the city was further shocked.

"Ancient Ink of Blood Essence Sect!"

"Blood Essence Sect, one of the grand sects of the Xiling Origin Continent, rumors say King Jingbei once apprenticed there, it's actually true?"

"Ancient Ink... a Nascent Soul level bigwig, with him personally overseeing, who can oppose King Jingbei?"

The people whispered among themselves.

A Nascent Soul overseeing, it was the greatest assurance.

Yet, despite Ancient Ink's words echoing through the city, the attacks from beyond the city did not abate in the slightest.

"White Tiger Mountain comes to collect the debt, whoever blocks, I kill—"

A bright white light-emitting woman soared above the city from the outside, clad in a snow-white gown, revealing her straight long legs, exhibiting a domineering grace and exquisite beauty, suddenly striking out with her palm!

"A mere Golden Core, dare to be arrogant!"

Ancient Ink roared, palm traversing Changkong, striking towards White Tiger Master outside the city.

But just at that moment.

Bam bam bam!

Celestial Yang City suddenly erupted as if countless giant bombs had been planted, exploding all at once!

The array protecting Celestial Yang City detonated at this moment!
