Chapter 585: Chapter 261: Luo Cheng’s Revenge, No Delay Until Night!

“Blood Nether Sect!”

Upon hearing Yu Lanxin’s words, Luo Cheng suddenly realized.

Just now, he noticed that compared to half a month ago, there were significantly fewer people within the Luoxia Sect, and occasionally three-colored cranes carried Luoxia Sect disciples away.

It turned out it was all because of the Blood Nether Sect.

It makes sense too; several months have passed since the Three Great Sects began a large-scale search for the Blood Nether Sect’s strongholds, and it’s likely nearing a result.

“Luo Cheng, many Inner Sect disciples from your Xuanyuan Sect have also gone to the Black Cloud Mountain Range. Why not join us!” the Ninth Princess suggested.

Luo Cheng pondered for a moment, then shook his head:

“No, I have other matters to attend to.”

Last time, thanks to the favor of the Eighth Prince Jin Min, he was nearly pushed to the brink by the Jile Sect demoness Mu Qinglian. This matter had been weighing on Luo Cheng’s mind.

A gentleman takes revenge; ten years is not too late.

Luo Cheng takes revenge; it won’t wait for night to fall.

Now that his cultivation had improved, it was time to settle the score with Jin Min.

Besides, Luo Cheng had another reason to leave Luoxia Sect immediately.

Luoxia Sect’s top ten true disciples, Yin Li!

According to the information he’s gathered, Yin Li was still inside the sect, but hadn’t appeared yet. Who knows if this was the calm before the storm.

Luo Cheng now only wanted to leave Luoxia Sect as soon as possible to escape this potential danger, so he naturally would not travel with Yu Lanxin and the others.

Seeing Luo Cheng’s determination to leave, Yu Lanxin and the others had no choice but to give up.

Before leaving, Luo Cheng paid a visit to Elder Bi Qiushui.

He managed to come to Luoxia Sect and gain such significant advancements, thanks to the strong recommendation of Elder Bi Qiushui.

He would not forget the kindness and support shown by the elder.

“Haha, Luo Cheng, your rate of improvement really makes me pale in comparison. Even the old antiques of our sect have high praise for you.”

Elder Bi Qiushui grew more fond of Luo Cheng the more she looked, offering praise without reservation.

Luo Cheng humbly replied, “I have the elder to thank for the guidance.”

Bi Qiushui gently shook her head, “A capable person like a thousand-mile horse isn’t made just by having a talent scout. It’s your own efforts that got you here. Another person might not have even been able to pass the trial of the Mimeng Zang Mountain.”

Shifting the conversation, Bi Qiushui continued, “The path of cultivation is full of thorns, and only through challenges in times of peril can one invoke their latent potential. Your rapid increase in strength lacks the polish of real combat experience. The Black Cloud Mountain Range is an ideal place for such training. Only by experiencing the great terror between life and death can you reach higher realms.”

“Yes! Luo Cheng sincerely takes this to heart.”

Luo Cheng nodded.

The Black Cloud Mountain Range—he absolutely had to go there.

For others, it was merely a place to kill Blood Nether Sect disciples and gain wealth through experience.

For him, it was a treasure mountain!

If nothing else, just the ability to devour Martial Souls during battle made it worth the trip.

Bi Qiushui smiled and nodded, “Go ahead. As long as you maintain this spirit of bravery and progress, you will surely achieve something remarkable in the future.”

“I will.”

Saying his farewells, Luo Cheng turned and left.

“I wonder if you can break the norm and create a miracle…”

Gazing at Luo Cheng’s departing figure, Bi Qiushui softly murmured.

Luo Cheng’s performance during this period ranked among the top of the talents Bi Qiushui had ever seen, undoubtedly possessing the potential to become a Great Power, or even ascend to a True Master.

Yet, Luo Cheng’s Martial Soul had awakened as a Wasted Martial Soul, an innate flaw.

The qualities of a top-tier genius and a Wasted Martial Soul appearing simultaneously on one person!

Even Bi Qiushui didn’t know how far Luo Cheng would go in the future.

Would he fade away amongst the crowd step by step,

or would he be a hidden dragon in the abyss, someday transforming into a True Dragon and soaring into the sky…

Outside Elder Bi Qiushui’s residence.

An enormous bird awaited, snow-white all over and robust in build, precisely the Demon Beast mount, the three-colored crane, raised by Luoxia Sect.

Aside from Luoxia Sect members, even a strong practitioner in the Awakening Vein Realm would find it difficult to pass through the Mist Sea outside the Luoxia Sect and would need to ride the three-colored crane to get in and out.

Next to the three-colored crane, Yu Lanxin, Yan Qingshuang, and the Ninth Princess were present, the three of them coming to see Luo Cheng off.

Only Qi Yue was nowhere to be found.

Luo Cheng didn’t mind, stepped forward, and said, “Let’s go!”

The four of them leaped onto the three-colored crane.

With a powerful flap of its wings, the three-colored crane turned into a white lightning bolt, shooting up into the clouds, disappearing in a flash into the dreamlike and eerie mist.

The mist was like a sea, with an upturned and inverted world, yin and yang reversed, making it hard to determine direction.

Yet the three-colored crane was completely unfazed, flying straight through.

Along the way, the Ninth Princess Jin Yuxi suddenly remarked, “Luo Cheng, I’ve asked my brother to seal off the news of your visit to our Luoxia Sect. To the outside world, you’ve been in a state of disappearance for almost a month.”

“Additionally, lately, people from your Xuanyuan Sect’s Crown Prince Hall have been appearing near Mingxia Lake, probably looking for your whereabouts. Be careful when you return this time.”

“Is that so?”

A cold light flashed in Luo Cheng’s eyes.

This Jin Min wouldn’t rest until he was dead.

Recalling that night’s pursuit, Luo Cheng asked, “Ninth Princess, do you know who the Earth Level Great Power that pursued us was?”

The Ninth Princess replied, “I had my brother investigate. This person comes from Jin Min’s maternal Qi Family. Their specific identity is unclear, only that they are not from our Great Yue Dynasty, but from another domain. In their early years, they were pursued by enemies and took refuge in our Great Yue Dynasty, saved by Jin Min’s mother, Consort Qi. Ever since, they’ve been hiding within the Qi Family, handling some shady matters.”

“In recent years, they’ve gained a moniker, known as Shadow Lord! It’s said that anyone who sees their shadow ends up dead.”

“Shadow Lord!”

Luo Cheng murmured the name, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

The debts with Eighth Prince Jin Min had to be settled.

This Shadow Lord, he would kill in the future too!

The Ninth Princess thought Luo Cheng was worried about Shadow Lord and reassured him, “You don’t need to worry about them coming after you. After I was attacked, my brother ordered a manhunt for Shadow Lord and Mu Qinglian. Even the Qi Family wouldn’t dare shelter them now; they are like street rats, and if they dare show themselves, they will immediately be hunted down by our Imperial Family’s powerful forces.”

“My brother also asked me to tell you that if you need anything, just say it.”

Luo Cheng nodded, “Please convey my thanks to the Eldest Prince.”

Yu Lanxin said, “Luo Cheng, if you’re worried, you can travel with us. This time, Sister Yin Li will also be accompanying us to the Black Cloud Mountain Range!”

Cough!

Luo Cheng was thrown off balance by the suggestion and quickly declined:

“No need! I still have matters to attend to at Mingxia Lake.”

“Alright then.”

Yu Lanxin found Luo Cheng’s reaction strange but didn’t question further.

With Luo Cheng’s current strength, he was considered a master throughout the entire Great Yue Dynasty. As long as he didn’t encounter a Great Power Level opponent, he could almost stand undefeated.

An hour later, the mist began to thin.

Soon, the bright sunlight pierced through, and the three-colored crane had broken through the misty region.

“Alright, I’ll be heading off here!”

Luo Cheng leaped off and departed the three-colored crane, speaking to Yan Qingshuang and the others:

“The Blood Nether Sect disciples are ruthless and evil. Your journey to the Black Cloud Mountain Range is sure to be fraught with danger. Take care.”

“Hmm.”

“Luo Cheng, you take care too.”

“Take care!”

The three bid farewell, turning the three-colored crane to leave.

After saying his goodbyes, Luo Cheng pinpointed his direction, employing the Mist Shadow Step, and sped off toward the northwest.

Feeling the moist wind against his face, Luo Cheng felt invigorated.

When he first arrived at the Luoxia Sect, he was only at the Sixth Level Peak of the Awakening Vein Realm, barely reaching the Ninth Layer standard of the Awakening Vein Realm in strength.

In less than a month, not only had his cultivation advanced to the Eighth Layer Peak of the Awakening Vein Realm, but his Sword Intent also reached the Nine Percent Sword Intent Prototype level, enabling him to compete with the Luoxia Sect’s Inner Sect Chief Disciple Yu Lanxin!

The transformation was nothing short of earth-shattering!

“Jin Min, we’ll meet soon enough… huh!”

As Luo Cheng was steeped in pleasure, he suddenly sensed something, his complexion changing as he looked ahead.

“Why is it so cold!”

Despite the bright sunny day, Luo Cheng felt an icy chill descending upon him.

In a trance, large snowflakes began swirling in the sky, covering the land, enveloping several miles, turning everything into a vast whiteness!
