A Mortal’s Journey to Immortality: Wang Yu’s Rebirth as the Reincarnation Dao Ancestor - Chapter 166
Chapter 164 Invisible
. He was placed under a restriction, knocked unconscious, and his essence blood mark was implanted.
Then he was placed in a treasure chest and sealed, before being sent to a high-grade spirit beast pouch.
The entire process was completed in one go.
“This is…”
spirit beast treatment?
Before losing consciousness, Gan Rushuang murmured in disbelief.
Han Li, however, said that his true form and the Qu Hun Sha Hun were already in the spirit beast pouch; a mere sword servant was enough.
“Before leaving, I still have a few things to do…”
First, a surprise attack!
Everyone thought that once he left Linglong Mountain, he wouldn’t return, at least not in the short term.
But he, disguised, unexpectedly launched a surprise attack.
His purpose was clear: the legacy of Old Monster Qiong.
The Yan Yue Sect naturally possessed the Invisible Needle legacy of Old Monster Qiong.
The information provided by Gan Rushuang mentioned that Old Monster Qiong was a lone wolf in his youth and left no blood relatives; therefore, the legacy was shared by the various families of the Yan Yue Sect.
This legacy is now held by a newly promoted Core Formation stage cultivator from the Lan family twenty years ago.
Not only did he master the basics of the Invisible Escape Technique, but he also crafted an Invisible Needle magic treasure.
“According to Gan Rushuang, this person from the Lan family wasn’t a disciple of Old Monster Qiong…”
“Old Monster Qiong’s only closed-door disciple before the war was a non-family member born into a rogue cultivation family.”
Because of this, he wasn’t given significant training by the higher-ups of the Hidden Moon Sect.
After Old Monster Qiong’s death, not only were his belongings not inherited by his closed-door disciple, but even the few Invisible Needle talismans he possessed were bought up cheaply by Core Formation cultivators from several major families within the sect.
If Old Monster Qiong were still alive, one wonders if he would have been driven to death by anger.
His closed-door disciple was also quite talented and virtuous, but unfortunately, he died young on the Mulan battlefield of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance.
“Old Monster Qiong dedicated his life to the Hidden Moon Sect. While alive, although he often bullied Core Formation cultivators of the same level from other sects, he never bullied Qi Refining or Foundation Establishment cultivators. He treated the younger generation by sending them out to experience hardship, letting the sect’s so-called geniuses undergo a baptism of blood. Yet, in the end, his own closed-door disciple became a stepping stone for others, killed by sword…”
Would Old Monster Qiong question his own principles because of this?
Then there’s the Core Formation cultivator from the Lan family who inherited Old Monster Qiong’s legacy…
“This person is currently on a mission and hasn’t returned to the sect yet.”
“However, given the magnitude of what happened to the Hidden Moon Sect, he’ll likely be recalled soon after receiving the news.”
“I just need to wait and see…”
The ancestral lands of the major cultivation families of the Hidden Moon Sect are not within the tens of miles of the Linglong Mountain’s grand formation, but rather on other spiritual veins and treasure lands hundreds or even thousands of miles away from the sect.
Half a month later, the Lan family contacted their Core Formation ancestor.
Another half month passed, and the newly promoted early-stage patriarch of the Lan family returned without alerting any mid- or low-level cultivators.
At a family gathering, he learned of the events that had occurred a month prior on Sunset Peak of Linglong Mountain in the Hidden Moon Sect.
“Our sect has actually suffered such a calamity?”
The Lan family member, a Core Formation cultivator in brocade robes, became even more sinister upon learning the details. His
expression was complicated by Gan Rushuang’s departure.
He truly didn’t know how to evaluate the actions of the Grand Elder.
Just as he used his invisible escape technique to leave the family and return towards the mountain gate, a powerful magical hand descended from the sky.
Simultaneously, a pagoda pressed down, causing ripples in the air for several miles around, and quickly revealing the outline of a figure in what was previously an empty area.
“What?”
An enemy attack?
Moreover, his invisible escape technique had been rendered invisible by the attack?
The opponent was very familiar with the invisible escape technique!
This was a targeted attack!
“Who dares to cause trouble on the territory of my Hidden Moon Sect?”
With a cold shout, he was about to unleash his natal magic weapon, the Invisible Needle.
“A very good escape technique. Even if only a cultivator at the early stage of Core Formation uses it, a late-stage Core Formation cultivator unprepared would probably be helpless against you.”
Unfortunately, he had met his match.
The domain field generated by the Qiankun Tower was a natural nemesis of the Invisible Escape Technique and the Invisible Needle.
Its invisibility and formlessness were largely rendered ineffective, almost completely exposed.
“You are… a Nascent Soul cultivator?”
Sensing the magical energy and spiritual fluctuations emanating from Han Li, the middle-aged man from the Lan family was shocked.
His master, Old Monster Qiong, could hold his own against a Nascent Soul cultivator, but his own cultivation was far inferior.
“Run!”
A dozen breaths later, the middle-aged man fainted.
Han Li carried him away.
On the way, he checked the man’s storage bag:
“No inheritance jade slip?”
That was truly a pity.
The next moment, the Lan family cultivator’s head deliberately bumped into Han Li’s palm, which Han Li “accidentally” couldn’t dodge.
Soul Search!
Several hours later, Han Li released the drooling middle-aged man.
“This Invisible Needle magic weapon and this Invisible Escape Technique are indeed destined for me!”
…
The [Invisible Needle] can be refined from magic weapon materials.
The higher the quality of the magic weapon materials used, the better the foundation of the Invisible Needle, the higher its potential, and the greater its initial power.
Of course, the longer it is tempered with pill fire or even infant fire, the greater its subsequent growth level will be.
One of the two main advantages that made “Old Monster Qiong,” the most senior Core Formation cultivator in the former Yue Kingdom, famous
was his possession of the Invisible Needle Talisman. An ordinary early-stage Core Formation cultivator who obtained even one of Old Monster Qiong’s Invisible Needle Talismans could threaten an ordinary late-stage Core Formation cultivator, and ambushing, severely injuring, or even killing an ordinary mid-stage Core Formation cultivator was a piece of cake.
The [Invisible Escape Technique] allowed him to silently conceal his presence, even a Nascent Soul cultivator might not detect him if they weren’t careful.
With the Invisible Escape Technique, Old Monster Qiong, even at the late-stage Core Formation level, escaped from Nascent Soul cultivators many times in the past.
This cultivator surnamed Lan, although only at the early-stage Core Formation level, could also fight beyond his level and contend with an ordinary late-stage Core Formation cultivator with his Invisible Escape Technique and Invisible Needle
Talisman. If it were only these characteristics, Han Li wouldn’t be so pleased.
But if, combined with the five magical treasures left by the Lord of the Forbidden Land, especially the two pieces of Golden Essence mined from the Golden Essence Ore of the Yu Ling Sect… If these raw materials are used to refine the Invisible Needle, the finished magic weapon will be far more powerful than ordinary Invisible Needles, and its potential will also be much higher.
Furthermore,
the Invisible Escape Technique is also very particular.
This escape technique is also related to the wind attribute.
It is best practiced by cultivators with wind spirit roots.
This method does not conflict with orthodox methods.
In other words, the forbidden land’s inherited “Five Tribulations Wind Control True Technique” can be used simultaneously with this method.
The Nine Heavens Gale Wind Escape makes his wind escape speed far exceed that of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.
Flying through the Gale Wind layer also increases concealment.
If this is combined with the Invisible Escape Technique’s invisibility and stealth, it will be even more silent.
Not to mention that ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators would have difficulty detecting his escape, even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator with powerful divine sense and keen perception might not be able to notice him.
“There is still plenty of time. Before the Void Heaven Palace opens, I will have enough time to refine the magic weapon and figure out some of the tricks of the Invisible Escape Technique.”
If I could integrate this escape technique into the Nine Heavens Gale Wind Escape as another secret technique, that would be even better.
Let’s start with a short chapter.
From now on, I’ll adjust the schedule to one chapter at 10 PM and one at 8 AM.
This way, everyone can read a little in the morning to relax
, and another before bed to relax. Early to
bed and early to rise, right?
Updating at midnight is indeed too late. It’s not good for everyone.
