Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Divided Mind and Beast Taming, the Mo Family in Peril (Seeking Subscriptions)

When it comes to escape techniques,

in the Western and Southern Regions, perhaps no one can compare to Li Chang’an.

Of course, the Purple Dawn Saintess of the Purple Cloud Sect is not included.

She possesses the Cloud Cloud Spirit Body, naturally skilled in concealment and escape techniques, and has a Nascent Soul True Monarch behind her, making it easy for her to obtain Heavenly-grade escape techniques.

Fortunately, Li Chang’an is a friend, not an enemy.

“This Azure Wind Serpent’s escape technique is also quite good. If it were anyone else today, it would most likely have escaped.”

Li Chang’an put the Azure Serpent True Person and the Azure Wind Serpent King into his spirit beast pouch, then put away the array and other arrangements.

He erased all his aura and transformed into a stream of light, departing.

Back at Changqing Mountain,

Li Chang’an opened the Azure Serpent True Person’s storage pouch and examined it carefully.

Inside the pouch were many treasures for nurturing spirit beasts.

Clearly, the Azure Serpent True Person treated the Azure Wind Serpent as her second life, nurturing it with utmost care.

Li Chang’an searched through the contents for a moment and quickly found the divine sense technique mastered by the Jade Serpent True Person.

“Earth-grade Divine Sense Technique, Divine Spirit Dividing and Beast Control Method.”

This Divine Spirit Dividing and Beast Control Method, if successfully cultivated, allows one to split their divine sense in two, with one half controlling their own body and the other controlling their contracted spirit beast.

In this way, one can simultaneously fight against the spirit beast, essentially making the spirit beast a clone.

With two bodies controlled by the same consciousness, the level of coordination is naturally higher.

Furthermore

, this divine sense technique will not cause any harm to the spirit beast.

“Although the Jade Serpent True Person controls the Jade Wind Serpent’s demonic body, the Jade Wind Serpent’s own consciousness has not been erased. If the Jade Serpent True Person no longer wishes to control it, they can return control of the demonic body at any time.”

Li Chang’an browsed the contents, silently pondering.

This divine sense technique is indeed excellent.

Cultivators who practice this divine sense technique can control their spirit beast’s body to escape in times of crisis.

However,

its weakness is also obvious.

After the divine sense is split in two, it is most vulnerable to divine sense attacks.

Although divine sense attacks are almost unheard of in the cultivation world these days, some lucky cultivators still manage to acquire them.

Li Chang’an himself possessed one.

“This spell is worth learning. It may be useless now, but it might come in handy someday.” It

‘s never a bad thing to have more skills!

Li Chang’an copied the spell and tossed it into his storage bag.

Afterward, he continued to inventory the treasures in Bi She Zhenren’s storage bag, taking most of the useful items. Once

the inventory was complete

, Li Chang’an released Bi She Zhenren from his storage bag.

He interrogated him, trying to uncover more of Shi Hu Zhenren’s trump cards, but Bi She Zhenren knew little.

“Shi Hu is indeed cautious; even to his most trusted Bi She Zhenren, he hasn’t revealed many of his trump cards,”

Li Chang’an mused for a moment.

Shi Hu Zhenren’s style was far from the rough and ready person he appeared to be.

If it weren’t for the Wood Seed Technique, Li Chang’an would have had a truly difficult time dealing with him.

“Let Bi She return first, and through her, slowly control the other Golden Core cultivators in Stone Tiger Immortal City. Then, find an opportunity to deal with

Stone Tiger Immortal.” Li Chang’an activated the Wood Seed Technique, manipulating Bi She Immortal back to Stone Tiger Immortal City.

His actions were extremely swift, and no one noticed.

After Bi She Immortal returned to Stone Tiger Immortal City, she aroused no suspicion and continued as before.

In the days that followed,

Stone Tiger Immortal City was gradually infiltrated by Li Chang’an.

Li Chang’an himself remained on Evergreen Mountain, cultivating the Divine Consciousness Dividing and Beast Taming Technique.

Time flew by, and more than two years passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day,

Li Chang’an mastered the Divine Consciousness Dividing and Beast Taming Technique.

He activated the technique, separating half of his divine consciousness and entering Da Huang’s sea of consciousness, instantly controlling Da Huang’s body.

“This control is somewhat similar to the Wood Seed Technique, allowing manipulation of the demonic power and innate demonic arts of this demonic body, but the required spiritual sense far exceeds that of the Wood Seed Technique.”

“Back then, when Mo Qingkuang created the Blood Seed Technique, he might have referenced this spiritual sense technique.”

Li Chang’an pondered.

Although Mo Qingkuang’s comprehension was strong, even the best comprehension could hardly create a technique out of thin air.

Referring to the techniques and insights of predecessors could save one from many detours.

“Dahuang’s tracking talent is quite peculiar, able to distinguish so many auras.”

After taking control of Dahuang’s body, Li Chang’an felt that the entire world had changed.

He controlled Dahuang’s demonic body and moved around on Changqing Mountain for a while.

Just then,

Wang Lingjing suddenly ran over.

“Dahuang, let’s go play in the back mountain.”

She was wearing a light yellow dress, her figure graceful, and she was about to sit on Dahuang’s back.

Li Chang’an immediately dodged, saying to her, “Lingjing, go play by yourself. Dahuang is busy right now.”

“Huh?”

Wang Lingjing’s beautiful eyes widened instantly, staring at Li Chang’an in astonishment.

“Ancestor, why have you turned into a dog?”

“I’m testing a new spell, and I can’t explain it to you right now.”

“Oh.”

Wang Lingjing obediently left without asking anything.

Li Chang’an continued to sense Dahuang’s innate demonic magic, discerning the countless auras in the world.

He vaguely felt that if this innate demonic magic were further enhanced, it might not only be used to find people but also to find various treasures, just like the treasure-hunting talent of the Ink-Scaled Earth Dragon.

Unfortunately, Dahuang’s bloodline was too low, resulting in the upper limit of this talent not being high enough.

“I wonder when I can get another Ten Thousand Demon Bloodstone.”

Li Chang’an was somewhat regretful, as he still hadn’t obtained the method of refining Ten Thousand Demon Bloodstones from the ancient Beast Taming Sect.

Just then,

in the Stone Tiger Immortal City of the Western Regions,

Stone Tiger True Man suddenly found the Jade Serpent True Man whom he controlled.

“Azure Serpent, prepare yourself. We will re-enter the Southern Region and annihilate the Mohist School!”

“Annihilate the Mohist School?”

“Excellent!”

Master Shi Hu’s expression was calm as he explained the plan.

The Southern Region was currently in turmoil.

Within many factions, voices were calling for submission to the Western Region.

Master Shi Hu’s desire to annihilate the Mo Clan was to further inflame the Southern Region, making it even more unstable.

“I want them to know that no matter their choice, the Southern Region is doomed to defeat in this battle! If they submit, they can preserve their spiritual lands and clansmen; if they don’t, their fate will be the same as the Mo Clan’s.”

“The Mo Clan only has one Golden Core cultivator, Mo Qingxue. If we are fully prepared, she will not be able to escape.”

“This matter must be kept secret. It must not be told to anyone, especially Xue Lin…”

“…”

That very night,

Master Shi Hu summoned more than ten Golden Core cultivators.

These were all people he trusted, who had fought alongside him for many years, slaying countless enemies.

Unbeknownst to them

, nearly half of these people had already been controlled by Li Chang’an.

They discussed the timing of their operation, their escape route, the Mo Clan’s specific strength, and so on…

Meanwhile

,

inside the cave at Changqing Mountain…

Li Chang’an frowned slightly, pondering for a moment.

“So many Golden Core cultivators acting together, including two third-tier high-grade array masters, the Mo family is in dire straits.”

With his current strength, if he went all out, he should be able to save the Mo family.

But Li Chang’an didn’t want to take the risk.

“Let’s see what the divination says first. If there’s danger, then forget it. At most, I’ll notify Mo Qingxue to evacuate in advance.”

He sat cross-legged, waiting for the divination to appear.

Soon, midnight arrived.

A golden light appeared before his eyes.

[Divination updated]

[Today’s Divination – Auspicious]

[You will go to the Mo family and set up multiple third-tier high-grade arrays for the Mo family’s territory. You will sit within the arrays to defend against the invading forces and help the Mo family overcome the crisis.]

[In return, Mo Qingxue will open the Mo family’s treasury, allowing you to choose any treasures.]

“Auspicious divination, not bad!”

Li Chang’an felt slightly relieved. The divination indicated that this matter was feasible.

“Perfect, I’ll take this opportunity to test the strength of that Stone Tiger cultivator.”

With this in mind,

he no longer hesitated and quietly left Changqing Mountain.

Upon arriving at the Mo family’s territory, the night was still deep, and many low-level Mo family cultivators were still resting; the entire territory was quiet.

Li Chang’an released his aura.

Mo Qingxue quickly sensed it and appeared from the depths of the territory to meet him.

“Fellow Daoist Li, what brings you here in the middle of the night?”

“It’s important.”

Li Chang’an didn’t beat around the bush and directly explained the situation to her.

“True Master Shi Hu has chosen the Mo family as his next target and will arrive soon to annihilate the entire Mo family.”

“What?”

Mo Qingxue’s expression immediately became extremely solemn.

The Mo family’s foundation was not even as strong as the Ou family’s.

Even the Ou family had been wiped out; how could the Mo family withstand it?

“Fellow Daoist Li, how did you learn of this?”

“I have a friend who holds a high position in the Western Regions. Not long ago, he sent me this information through special channels.”

Hearing this, Mo Qingxue didn’t doubt it.

From the time she met Li Chang’an until now, she had often heard him use “a friend” as an excuse.

No matter who that friend was, he was always right!

“This matter is somewhat troublesome.”

Mo Qingxue looked down at the Mo family’s territory.

Faced with the overwhelming enemy, she knew she couldn’t handle it and could only lead all the Mo family members to flee the territory.

But there were no more third-tier spiritual veins left in the Southern Region.

Where could the Mo family members settle down after leaving this place?

Master Shi Hu had already chosen the Mo family as his target, and even if he missed them this time, he might not let them go. Perhaps there would be another one soon.

In short, the Mo family’s territory was no longer secure.

“Fine, let’s gather all the clansmen in first,”

Mo Qingxue sighed, her voice tinged with helplessness.

With a wave of her hand, countless spirit beast pouches flew out of her storage bag, intending to collect all the Mo family cultivators and mortals.

But just then,

Li Chang’an said to her, “Fellow Daoist Mo, can you trust me?”

Hearing this, Mo Qingxue paused.

Her gaze turned cold as she looked at Li Chang’an again.

“Fellow Daoist Li, are you confident that you can single-handedly hold off all the invading enemies?”

“Indeed, I can do it with the help of the formation, but I need materials from the Mo family’s treasury.”

“Alright, if this succeeds, you can choose any treasure from the Mo family’s treasury!”

Mo Qingxue was decisive, agreeing without hesitation.

If possible, she naturally wanted to protect the Mo family’s territory.

Of course,

for the sake of caution,

she still planned to use the spirit beast pouches to gather all the Mo family members.

Before this, she called over a little girl of about three or four years old and introduced her to Li Chang’an.

“Fellow Daoist Li, this is Mo Tong, a prodigy of the Mo family with an earth-spirit root. Her talent surpasses mine. If I am defeated in this battle, please take care of her.”

“Earth-spirit root?”

Li Chang’an scrutinized the little girl for a moment, secretly using his spirit-testing technique.

Within her body, there were eighty-eight strands of spiritual energy, confirming she indeed possessed an earth-spirit root.

The birth of such a genius

indicated the Mo family’s excellent fortune. “Fellow Daoist Mo, there’s no need to be pessimistic   .

The Mo family’s fortune is at its peak; it’s not time for our clan to be wiped out yet.” “The concept of fortune is always mysterious.”   Mo Qingxue shook her head slightly, neither confirming nor denying.   At this moment,   Mo Tong suddenly spoke, her voice very childish, her little face showing a hint of curiosity.   ”Ancestor Qingxue, is this senior the Ancestor Changqing you’ve been talking about all this time?”   Hearing this, a blush instantly appeared on Mo Qingxue’s fair face.   She quickly suppressed it and reprimanded her.   ”Nonsense! I don’t talk about this all the time.”   Before Mo Tong could respond, she put him into her spirit beast pouch.   Then,   she used her Golden Core power to collect the rest of the Mo family members.   During this time, Mo Hong, Mo Feng, and the others were puzzled and asked why.   Mo Qingxue said, “A great enemy from the Western Regions is about to invade. I am not confident in this battle. I am sending you all away first. If I am defeated, you must not avenge me; silently accumulate strength.”   Hearing this, Mo Hong and the others looked worried.   But before they could ask for details, Mo Qingxue had already sealed the spirit beast pouch.   After that,   she used a puppet to send the Mo family members away, leaving herself in the empty clan territory.   At this moment, Li Chang’an had entered the Mo family’s treasury.   With a wave of his hand, he collected all the materials suitable for setting up formations.   ”These materials aren’t enough; I’ll have to pay out of my own pocket. Once this is over, I’ll dismantle the formation and retrieve the materials.”   ”If Mo Qingxue wants to keep the formation, she can compensate me with other treasures.”   Li Chang’an was always shrewd and wouldn’t suffer a loss for nothing.   He flickered, leaving the treasures behind, transforming into a series of afterimages appearing throughout the Mo family’s territory.   In a short while,   the original Mo family’s third-tier formation was completely dismantled by him.   Seeing this, Mo Qingxue was deeply disturbed, because she hadn’t relinquished control of the Mo family’s formations to Li Chang’an.   In other words,   all the formations had been forcibly dismantled by Li Chang’an!   Among them were even high-grade third-tier formations, but they posed no obstacle to Li Chang’an.   ”Fellow Daoist Li, your formation skills have indeed advanced to high-grade third-tier.”   ”They’re just some life-saving techniques, nothing to mention.”   Li Chang’an smiled and began to rebuild the formation.   After so many years of honing his skills, his array formation techniques were far beyond what he had achieved at the initial stage of the third tier; he had reached the pinnacle of the third tier array formation. He   could be considered a near-fourth-tier array master.   However, due to the lack of a successor, he had been unable to take that final step.   As time passed, one after another, the third-tier high-grade arrays took shape.   Finally,   within the Mo family territory, a full seven third-tier high-grade arrays appeared!   The foundation of these seven arrays was the Five Elements Transformation Array, with two additional extremely offensive killing arrays, considered Li Chang’an’s pinnacle work in array formation.   No matter how many Golden Core cultivators came, they could be killed!   ”It’s done!”   Li Chang’an slowly exhaled and landed beside Mo Qingxue.   With these seven arrays, the Mo family territory was secure.   The two sat quietly on the roof of a large hall within the clan territory, awaiting the arrival of the enemy.   Mo Qingxue turned to look at Li Chang’an, a few complex emotions flashing in her eyes.   ”Fellow Daoist Li, do you remember when I asked you before you formed your Golden Core, when we could be completely honest with each other?”   ”Of course I remember.”   ”At that time, you were focused on forming your Golden Core and didn’t answer me. Have you thought it through now?”   Mo Qingxue’s tone was no longer as cold as before, but very gentle.   Hearing this, Li Chang’an turned to look at her.   Their gazes met again, staring at each other for a long time, gradually revealing a different kind of emotion.   This time,   Mo Qingxue took the initiative to break the silence.   ”Fellow Daoist Li, with our talents, we are destined not to reach the Nascent Soul stage. The Golden Core is the end of our path in this life. There are still more than three hundred years left. Do you only want to walk this path alone?”   ”This matter…”   Li Chang’an thought for a moment.   Although Mo Qingxue only had more than three hundred years of lifespan left, he himself had more.

“Fellow Daoist Mo, let’s discuss this matter after this battle.”

“Alright.”

Mo Qingxue nodded gently and said nothing more.

She had already revealed her true feelings directly, speaking quite frankly.

The specifics depended on Li Chang’an’s decision.

Time flew by.

Several hours later.

Li Chang’an suddenly looked up at the distant horizon.

“They’re here!”

With that, he vanished from his spot, disappearing into the depths of the formation to oversee the entire array.

Mo Qingxue’s expression was solemn. She summoned her magic weapon and looked into the distance.

She hadn’t sensed the enemy’s arrival, not even a trace of magical energy fluctuation. This

was because True Person Shi Hu and more than ten other Golden Core True Persons had used a near-fourth-tier magic weapon to conceal their aura and form.

They hadn’t revealed themselves but were secretly observing the Mo family’s formation.

After a while,

True Person Shi Hu spoke, asking one of the third-tier high-grade formation masters,

“How is the formation of this Mo family’s territory? Are you confident you can break it?”

“Yes!”

A hint of confidence appeared on the formation master’s face.

“The formation in this Mo family territory is weaker than that of the Ou family territory; we can break it quickly!”

He was so confident because what he saw was all an illusion deliberately left by Li Chang’an.

A moment later,

two third-tier high-grade formation masters from the Western Regions stepped forward to begin breaking the formation.

The others watched from a distance. They

were just waiting for the two to break the formation so they could rush in and slaughter the entire Mo family territory as quickly as possible.

However

, at that moment, a sudden change occurred!

The formation suddenly expanded, instantly swallowing the two formation masters.

“Not good!”

The others immediately realized the danger.

Someone summoned a magic weapon, about to rush to their aid, but was stopped by Master Shi Hu.

“Go! This place is not safe to stay!”

Master Shi Hu’s expression was solemn as he led everyone in a rapid retreat.

Almost in the next instant

, the wildly expanding formation swallowed their previous hiding place.

If they had been a step slower, they would all have been trapped inside the formation!

At the same time.

The power of multiple array formations converged into a sharp arrow, carrying astonishing killing intent, which suddenly pierced the sky and instantly reached the group.

Sensing this powerful aura, everyone’s expression changed.

The power of this arrow had surpassed the limits of the Golden Core stage; apart from True Person Shi Hu, none of them could withstand it.

“Suppress!”

True Person Shi Hu shouted, casting a talisman.

This talisman shone brightly with golden light, countless intricate spiritual patterns burning, emitting fourth-order fluctuations, firmly blocking the arrow.

“A fourth-order talisman!”

Inside the array, Li Chang’an’s gaze sharpened as he looked at the talisman.

This treasure was clearly one of True Person Shi Hu’s trump cards.

He used the power of the array to launch several arrows in succession, but they were all blocked by the fourth-order talisman.

Protected by the talisman,

True Person Shi Hu and many other Golden Core cultivators from the Western Regions were thus eliminated.

Many Golden Core cultivators were somewhat unwilling to accept this defeat, after all, they had lost two third-order high-grade array masters.

“The Mo family’s foundation is clearly inferior to the Ou family’s, so why is their clan’s formation so powerful?”

They looked back, unable to understand.

Faced with such a formation, even gathering more power would make it difficult to break through the Mo family’s defenses.

“Since we’re already here, we can’t just leave empty-handed. Why don’t we try Li Chang’an’s Evergreen Mountain?”
