Cultivating Immortality in a Family: I Prove Immortality Through the Chaotic Dao Realm

Chapter 126 Urgent Request for Rescue, Demon's Lair Revealed!

Half an hour ago, in a pine forest less than a hundred miles from the edge of Luoxia Mountain, Chen Yunzheng was wielding his sword to kill the third Wind Blade Leopard.

His sleeves were somewhat torn, but he was unharmed. The blood of the demonic beast on his sword dripped down the spine of the blade, but was enveloped by a strange black mist the moment it touched the ground, and quickly disappeared without a trace.

"Yan Fei, I have a feeling that something is wrong with these monsters. They seem to be controlled by some kind of force!" Chen Yunzheng frowned, a sense of unease rising in his heart.

While frantically throwing fireball talismans to try and suppress the sudden surge of insects, Yan Fei shouted back, "I noticed it too! The appearance of these insects is too strange!"

Before he could finish speaking, a whooshing sound came from above, and three pitch-black hidden weapons came flying like venomous fangs.

Chen Yunzheng swung his sword to parry, but the moment the hidden weapon touched the sword energy, it burst into a cloud of gray mist.

The faint chirping of insects could be heard from within the gray fog, and countless tiny black shadows swept in like a sandstorm.

"Hold your breath!" Yan Fei hurriedly crushed the protective talisman. Just as the golden light shield was erected, more than ten dark figures leaped out from the shadows of the trees.

The leader was dressed in a gray robe, which covered his entire body, making it impossible to see his face or figure.

"You think you can escape after being hit by my bewitching insects?" The gray-robed cultivator sneered, gently shaking the jade bottle in his hand, and more insects surged in like dark clouds pressing down on the city.

Chen Yunzheng felt a tickle in his nose, and countless illusions flashed before his eyes. The long sword in his hand clattered to the ground.

Yan Fei barely managed to increase his magical output, only to find that the edge of the light barrier was crawling with biting insects, and cracks were spreading like a spider web.

"Who are you people? How dare you attack members of my Chen family?!"

At the critical moment, Chen Yunzheng suddenly bit his tongue, activating the distress signal on the family nameplate.

Yan Fei's golden light talisman shattered at that moment, and his body was enveloped by countless tiny flying insects.

The two men fell to the ground one after the other. The gray-robed leader chuckled maliciously, took out a black handkerchief, wrapped the two men in it, and quickly vanished into thin air.

........................

The moment Chen Qian sensed the mark being triggered, he immediately took Yan Ran and mounted the Golden Bean, rushing towards the two of them.

Even if the speed of the golden bean is comparable to that of a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, it will still take a quarter of an hour to travel these hundreds of miles.

At the same time, Senior Flame Feather received Chen Yunzheng's distress call and immediately notified Chen Ruiang.

Without hesitation, Chen Ruiang set off quickly.

Fenglin Valley is also a few hundred miles away from where the two had the accident, which is about the same distance from Chen Qian's group. His speed is also similar to Jin Dou's, so the two groups can meet up in advance.

Jin Dou carried the two of them through the air for a little over fifteen minutes until they arrived at the place where Chen Yunzheng and Yan Fei had encountered danger.

But the place was deserted, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the two had been abducted to a place a hundred miles away.

Because Chen Qian's family nameplate could no longer sense Chen Yunzheng's nameplate, but instead sensed an extremely fast streak of light approaching from the sky not far away.

It was actually the ancestor Chen Rui'ang!
Needless to say, it was Chen Yunzheng who activated the distress signal in the nameplate.

That's good too. The situation is unclear right now, and the enemy seems quite strong. With the patriarch coming to help, we'll be much more confident.

Just a few breaths later, Chen Ruiang landed with a thud beside Chen Qian and the other man.

"Yunqian, what happened to Yunzheng?"

Chen Ruiang landed on the ground and scanned the scene with his divine sense, immediately gaining a clear understanding of the situation.

A fierce battle had clearly just taken place here; there were still traces of blood on the ground, trees, and grass, and the messy marks on the ground were also quite obvious.

"Ancestor, it's like this." Chen Qian didn't waste any time and quickly explained the situation of their group over the past two days in concise language.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ruiang frowned deeply, and the fine lines between his brows became even more pronounced.

“This is troublesome!” he said decisively. “Let’s each search in one direction, using a fan-shaped method, and see if we can sense Yun Zheng’s nameplate.”

As he spoke, he prepared to flee in the northwest direction.

He came from the southeast, while Chen Qian had just come from the northeast. Therefore, the best choice was for him to search in the northwest and for Chen Qian to explore in the southeast.

"Ancestor, wait!" Chen Qian hurriedly called out to stop him, "I can find Brother Yunzheng's location."

Chen Qian quickly explained the situation regarding the mark. Although the family nameplate couldn't sense Chen Yunzheng, his mark was still intact. However, the mark had already been triggered and wouldn't remain for long; there was no time to delay, and they needed to act swiftly.

Chen Ruiang was overjoyed upon hearing this, but gave Chen Qian a complicated look.

This kid! He's starting to lose his way.

What a variety of methods they have!

"The hope for the family's resurgence rests on this young man!"

According to Chen Qian's senses, Chen Yunzheng and the other person are currently in the northwest direction.

Without further ado, the group quickly set off. Although Chen Ruiang did not have a flying boat, his spirit-grade flying sword was still large enough to support three people.

On the flying sword, Chen Ruiang stood in front, Chen Qian in the middle, and Yan Ran stood at the very back, her arms tightly wrapped around Chen Qian's waist.

The streaking light swiftly tore through the void, its speed slightly surpassing that of the golden bean.

This is normal. The Golden Bean is only at the first level, but its speed is already incredibly fast.

After flying only a few dozen miles, Chen Ruiang found Chen Yunzheng's family nameplate, which had been discarded in the mountains.

Chen Ruiang felt a lingering fear.

If it weren't for Chen Qian's astonishing methods, Chen Yunzheng's life would be in grave danger today.

Without the mutual connection between family nameplates, finding someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The journey of hundreds of miles passed in the blink of an eye, and the group arrived at an inconspicuous mountain valley.

Chen Ruiang's figure was ethereal and unreal, as he had fully utilized his concealment technique.

He then took out a second-grade low-level Shadow Transformation Talisman from his storage bag and used it on Yan Ran.

Chen Qian had already activated the Harmony with the World Technique, so its concealment effect was self-evident. If they hadn't been so close, even Chen Ruiang would have almost failed to notice him.

After careful exploration, the group finally discovered a hidden entrance to a cave.

The cave entrance was covered by vines and withered leaves, and Chen Qian could vaguely sense a cold, eerie aura flowing below.

Chen Ruiang lay prone at the cave entrance, using his "Listening to the Wind" technique, and faintly heard the sound of chains and low groans coming from underground.

“There are at least a hundred living beings’ auras, and…” Chen Rui’ang’s pupils contracted slightly, “the spiritual pressure of Foundation Establishment cultivators.”

"I smell the scent of that demon cub." Chen Ruiang's brows twitched slightly, and the air around him became somewhat turbulent. "To dare to set up a point on the edge of my Chen family's territory... he must have something big up his sleeve!"

Chen Qian nodded in agreement. He glanced at the cave entrance and said in a deep voice, "Ancestor, whether it's a dragon's den or a tiger's lair, or a demon's lair or a monster's domain, we must venture into it."

Just as Chen Ruiang was about to reply, Chen Qian immediately said, "Ancestor, please wait for me a moment. I will settle Miss Yan in and come right away."

He reached out and grabbed Yanran's slender waist, then swept away into the distance.

"Brother Chen, don't worry about me, I can protect myself. Rescuing my brother is the most important thing!"

Yan Ran looked anxious, gripping Chen Qian's arm tightly with her fingers, and spoke rapidly.

Even in the urgency of the situation, Chen Qian's tone remained calm and gentle: "It won't take long, it's alright."

In just over ten breaths, Chen Qian found a relatively secluded spot nearby, put Yan Ran down, took out the Six Harmonies Maze Array and set it up, instructing her not to come out no matter what happened.

Yan Ran nodded repeatedly before he slipped away.

"Brother Chen, you must be careful, and you must save my brother!"

Yanran didn't say these words aloud; she only prayed silently in her heart.

Chen Qian quickly returned to the hidden cave entrance.

Old Ancestor Chen had already conducted a further investigation of the cave's interior. Upon seeing Chen Qian return, he transmitted his voice:
“Yunqian, these demon bastards haven’t laid any ambushes or sentries outside to be more secretive, but the situation inside the cave is very complicated, with many people hiding there.”
