Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Xu Zhangqing sat cross-legged in midair, suddenly raising an eyebrow.

He sensed two strands of divine sense probing down from outside Yaoguang Cave.

Had he not been at his peak with all six spiritual roots intact, he probably would not have noticed.

Moreover, the fluctuations of these two strands of divine sense far surpassed those of ordinary cultivators, and were far stronger than any Nascent Soul cultivator he had ever seen.

Crucially, Xu Zhangqing had never encountered these two strands of divine sense before.

One male, one female.

The female's was cold as the moon, carrying an aloof and proud intent within her divine sense.

The male's was fierce and overbearing, as if tiger roars and dragon chants echoed wherever his divine sense passed.

From this, it was clear that these two people possessed unfathomable cultivation.

Xu Zhangqing's mind turned, and he roughly guessed the visitors' identities.

The Three Great Immortal Sects of the Tianyuan Realm: Longhu Immortal Sect, Dongting Immortal Sect, and Yao Yue Immortal Sect.

Among them, Chao Jin, the Sect Master of Dongting Immortal Sect, had remained in the Yunhua Realm and never appeared.

As for the other two sects, Yao Yue Immortal Sect and Longhu Immortal Sect, their Sect Masters were not within the Tianyuan Realm.

Therefore, the powerful figures who could appear at this time, with such unfamiliar auras and divine senses, could only be Mu Yunni, Sect Master of Yao Yue Immortal Sect, and Long Yuan, Sect Master of Longhu Immortal Sect—there was no one else.

However, this judgment made Xu Zhangqing frown.

Logically, returning from the Tai Xu Lie Yuan to the Tianyuan Realm required Guiding Spirit Light to show the way back.

Yet these two seemed not to have used Guiding Spirit Light.

That meant they had not gone to the Tai Xu Lie Yuan.

Or rather, these two had never strayed far from the start, merely lingering somewhere in the Star Domain, and upon receiving news from the Tianyuan Realm, immediately turned back.

Having figured all this out, a certain plan Xu Zhangqing had originally entertained was completely suppressed.

Earlier, he had intended to store that out-of-control Red Wedding Dress into his Personal Space.

First, the Personal Space was a world unto itself, isolated from the laws of the outside world; locking that thing inside might temporarily control the situation.

Second, this thing was after all an existence from the Ancient Period; if he could store it away, he might someday find a way to master it, after all, he possessed Max-Level Puppet Technique.

But now he could not.

Right now, two Immortal Sect Masters were watching from outside; to stow that body away before their eyes would be far too conspicuous.

Not to mention, once a commotion was made and higher-level existences were alarmed, he, a mere Nascent Soul cultivator, would not be enough even with many hidden cards.

Be it the source power of the Tu Soil God or Primordial Heavy Water, before truly powerful beings, they were no more than toys in a child's hands.

No matter how confident Xu Zhangqing was, he was not so arrogant as to think he could now match wits with a Body Integration cultivator or even higher-level existences.

Forget it.

Xu Zhangqing sighed inwardly and completely abandoned the idea.

However, just as he was about to withdraw his divine sense and rise to leave, he suddenly caught something.

At the top of that scarlet giant cocoon—that is, the part of the Red Wedding Dress's veil—something was faintly emerging.

It was a very faint light, weaker than a firefly; if not looked at carefully, it was almost completely obscured by the scarlet cocoon surface.

But Xu Zhangqing's divine sense still keenly caught it.

It did not look like out-of-control power, but rather something deliberate, orderly, flashing at an extremely low frequency.

Immediately, he focused his mind to look closely.

After a while, the light became somewhat clearer, yet still flickered in and out of sight.

Fortunately, he eventually saw it clearly: it was several lines of text.

The text was pale gold, with complex structure.

Unlike any contemporary text Xu Zhangqing had seen, every character was like a living creature, wandering on the veil, bright then dim, as if it might dissipate at any moment.

Xu Zhangqing's pupils contracted: "Ancient Text?"

This kind of text contained some Law Power; it was not casually carved, nor was it left by the Wu Sheng Chong Mu.

The Chong Mu had occupied this body for many years; if she had discovered the text above, how could she have left it until now?

There was only one possibility: these texts only appeared after the Chong Mu's Divine Soul was annihilated and the power within the body completely ran out of control.

He did not hesitate; his divine sense spread out, imprinting every character on the veil.

These Ancient Texts were arranged in order, seemingly a combination of some chapter.

It was a pity that although Xu Zhangqing recognized these as Ancient Texts, he could not read their meaning, and the content pieced together was completely incomprehensible.

Fortunately, he had the system!

After a while, a name indeed appeared on the Attribute Panel.

Taixu Formula: Not Entered the Door

Cultivating this method to the Third Tribulation can sense the location of the Primordial Star Core deep in the Tai Xu.

Its position exists within a single thought; only those accomplished in cultivation can glimpse it.

Xu Zhangqing exhaled: "It's actually a coordinate!"

He had originally thought this was an ancient cultivation method.

But now it seemed, far more than that.

Pity, this place is not suitable for a long stay; leaving aside those two still in the sky above, the critical point is the out-of-control corpse shell that keeps swelling — staying any longer is meaningless.

Therefore Xu Changqing did not hesitate; spiritual light converged, and he withdrew the Xuanhuang Mother Qi Cauldron into his body.

Immediately after, he cast the divine ability Shrinking Earth to Inches; his whole person transformed into a blurry void-shadow, and in merely a single breath, he went from the depths of the Yaoguang Cave ruins to appear above the sea surface.

Almost simultaneously, Mu Yunni and Long Yuan's gazes both fell upon him.

On Mu Yunni's clear-cold face, there was not much expression.

Long Yuan sized Xu Changqing up and down, his eyes carrying a scrutinizing gaze.

Mu Yunni spoke first: "The one who comes, could it be the Qingmu Sect's Sect Master Xu?"

Xu Changqing, hands behind his back, looked upward, nodded and said: "Correct, I am Xu Changqing.

You two, presumably are the Yao Yue Immortal Sect's Sect Master Mu and the Longhu Immortal Sect's Sect Master Long, right."

"Correct."

Long Yuan's voice was resonant; his gaze shifted from Xu Changqing and once again landed on that stretch of ruins continuously surging with pressure: "Sect Master Xu, the Wu Sheng Chong Mu..."

Xu Changqing calmly said: "Already dead, but after the Chong Mu's will was erased, that corpse shell lost its suppression, and right now it is going out of control."

Mu Yunni and Long Yuan exchanged a glance; this basically matched the two's previous judgment.

Mu Yunni pressed further: "Then does Sect Master Xu know why the corpse shell would become this appearance?"

"Not clear."

Xu Changqing shook his head: "After the Chong Mu died, that Red Wedding Dress swelled on its own, releasing a large amount of silk threads and pressure, and without any divine soul fluctuations.

What I below can confirm is only one point: it has no consciousness, only instinct remains.

As for how long this will last, what it will ultimately become, no one can say for sure."

Mu Yunni heard this, transmitted voice and conversed a few sentences with Long Yuan.

"How do you feel about it?"

"We only know the Wu Sheng Chong Mu's predecessor was a certain powerhouse of the ancient era, but exactly which one, we really aren't too clear."

"Then Xu Changqing..."

"Temporarily trust!"

Xu Changqing suspended in mid-air, his whole person very calm.

A moment later, Mu Yunni looked at him again, seriously said: "Sect Master Xu, that out-of-control immortal shedding left here is ultimately a huge hidden danger.

We will set up a blockade array; during this period, no one is allowed to approach this sea region."

Long Yuan took over the conversation: "Sect Master Xu, you killed the Wu Sheng Chong Mu, this is a merit.

However the following matter, I'm afraid is not something a Spirit Transformation cultivator can meddle in!"
