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

Chapter 127 The Soul Devouring Palace Appears, Yan Ran is Kidnapped!
Chen Qian nodded solemnly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

These demonic cultivators dared to openly abduct cultivators, which clearly indicates that it was a meticulously planned operation, and the personnel and resources behind it must have been extremely abundant.

He had a vague feeling that he and his group were being watched in Kaoshanji.

It's just that because he went too deep, those demonic cultivators who wanted to kidnap people couldn't find him.

“I have already used a secret technique to carefully investigate. I estimate there is only one Foundation Establishment cultivator inside. Although there are many others, with your abilities, you should be able to protect yourself.”

Old Master Chen took a deep breath and continued, "Delay might cause unforeseen changes, and finding more manpower would be too troublesome. How about just the two of us, grandfather and grandson, together take down this den of demons?"

"What is there to be afraid of? I am willing to follow the Ancestor!" Chen Qian said with a serious expression.

"Follow me!" Old Ancestor Chen nodded approvingly, then transformed into a blur and leaped into the cave.

The cave passages are winding and twisting, with countless branching paths.

Fortunately, Chen Qian was able to sense Chen Yunzheng's location; otherwise, it would have been difficult for the two of them to find the key point.

With the idea of ​​capturing the leader first, the two naturally needed to find the location of the Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator first. Otherwise, once they made a move, they might be put on the defensive and could be ambushed.

As for the numerous other Qi Refining stage minions inside, the two of them certainly couldn't annihilate them all, which was unavoidable.

However, as soon as it was confirmed that this place was a stronghold of demonic cultivators, Old Ancestor Chen decisively used the sensing jade talisman given by the Beast Taming Sect to quickly report the information.

This jade talisman must not be used lightly unless it is of utmost importance, and the destructive acts of the Demon Alliance and demonic cultivators are the most pressing emergency.

It is estimated that by this time, the Beast Taming Sect's investigation and extermination team has already set off.

However, the sect's mountain gate is too far away from here. Even if the person is equipped with a mid-grade magic treasure-level escape device, it will still take at least seven or eight hours to arrive.

Chen Qian and Old Ancestor Chen certainly couldn't wait; this amount of time was enough for Chen Yunzheng and the others to die hundreds of times over.

Chen Qian slowly sensed the direction, and the two of them cautiously crept over.

After wandering around for quite some time, we finally arrived at a large grotto.

Inside, there were dozens of iron cages, many of which contained unconscious cultivators and martial artists.

Chen Yunzheng and Yan Fei were locked alone in the deepest part.

Not far from the two, the Foundation Establishment Demon Cultivator sat on a stone platform, playing an eerie melody on a bone flute. Countless alien insects crawled at his feet, like a black carpet.

"It's actually a demon cub from the Soul Devouring Hall of the Soul Luo Kingdom!"

Upon seeing the iconic bone flute, Chen Ruiang gritted his teeth and transmitted his voice, "So that's why they kidnap cultivators and martial artists, it turns out it's to plant Soul-Devouring Worms."

Upon hearing what the ancestor said, Chen Qian recalled the records about the Soul-Devouring Insects and couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine and goosebumps all over his body.

The Soul-Devouring Insects are vicious insects cultivated by the Soul-Devouring Palace using its secret sect techniques.

In past invasions by the Demon Alliance, the Soul-Eating Worms have committed countless horrific massacres and are already infamous.

These tiny insects, as fine as a hair, once invade a cultivator's body, slowly crawl towards the Niwan Palace (a point on the back of the head), devour the soul, seize control of the body, and turn the person into a walking corpse.

Even more terrifying is that the controlled body will not only be strengthened, but its original magical power level will not be reduced.

The only drawback is that the invasion and control process is time-consuming, and the Soul Eater has a short lifespan of only a dozen years.

It takes three to five years to control a Qi Refining cultivator, six to eight years for a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and more than ten years for a Core Formation cultivator.

It is said that in the forbidden area of ​​the Soul Devouring Hall, there is a fourth-order Soul Devouring Insect King. This Insect King not only has an extremely long lifespan, but can even control a Nascent Soul True Monarch.

Upon arriving here, Old Master Chen was no longer in a hurry.

Because to implant the Soul-Devouring Worm, one must first take the Soul-Devouring Palace's special pills for several days before the procedure can proceed.

Chen Yunzheng and Yan Fei have just been kidnapped, and they will not be in great danger for at least the next day or two.

As for those cultivators and martial artists who had already fallen unconscious, if they had been implanted, there was no hope of saving them. Chen Qian knew that the Beast Taming Sect's team was on their way, and since Chen Yunzheng and Yan Fei were not in immediate danger, the two of them were in no hurry to make a move.

After all, there are many passages and countless hidden places here, and no one knows if there are even more powerful demonic cultivators hiding here.

It would be best to wait for the Beast Taming Sect to arrive so that they can wipe out this group of demon cubs all at once.

It's always good to be cautious when you're out and about, especially when you don't have complete information.

Anyway, the situation has already been reported. As long as it is confirmed that it is true, we will definitely get some credit points.

The two then quietly lay low, patiently waiting for their opportunity.

Time slipped away quietly, and before we knew it, four or five hours had passed.

Just when Chen Qian thought he could wait for the Beast Taming Sect to arrive before making a move—

Suddenly, a woman in black with a seductive figure walked out of the passage they had sneaked in.

She was carrying a petite woman in her hand. Chen Qian looked closely and realized that it was none other than Yan Ran.
The alluring woman in black chuckled as she addressed the Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator inside the cave, saying, "Uncle Yin, your concealment skills are lacking! There's this Qi Refining nobody hiding in the formation, spying on us not far from the cave entrance."

She lightly touched her temple, her tone disdainful, "She even has high-level concealment talismans affixed to her body. If it weren't for my phantom worms being alert, I would have almost been fooled by her."

"Damn it!" The Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator was furious upon hearing this and got up to walk towards the alluring woman.

“I’m going to teach her a lesson and find out who ordered her to spy on us here.”

In this situation, it's clear that we can't wait any longer.

If Yan Ran were to fall into his hands, what would become of him?!
"Ancestor, make your move!"

Chen Qian sprang up instantly, ignoring Chen Ruiang's reaction, and in a flash, he was already beside the alluring woman several feet away.

The alluring woman was a genuine peak Qi Refining cultivator. She was suddenly ambushed when she thought she was completely safe, but she reacted in an instant.

There wasn't enough time to cast a spell or take out a magical artifact; she could only desperately channel her magical power into her protective spiritual energy.

"Ah~" A shrill scream rang out immediately.

Chen Qian attacked in anger, his fist flashing with gray-red light. The power of his strike was no weaker than the punch he had thrown at Xiong Da yesterday, and might even have been stronger.

"Crack!" The seemingly thick protective spiritual energy of the alluring woman was easily torn apart like thin paper, and a crisp sound of bones cracking came from the woman's waist.

At the same time, Chen Laozu, who had just appeared, unleashed his strongest attack.

The long-awaited Phoenix Cry Triple Slash was unleashed at the approaching demonic cultivator, with the fire-elemental magic power compressed to its limit on the Blazing Sun Sword pouring out.

The demonic cultivator sensed the change, waved his bone flute, and the swarm of insects surged in like a wave, while he quickly dodged to the side.

With a calculated attack on the unsuspecting opponent and a lower cultivation level, the demonic cultivator would certainly not be able to escape unscathed.

Another shrill scream rang out, and half of the demonic cultivator's body was almost blasted apart. Most of the swarming insects that rushed at him were also scattered by Old Ancestor Chen's sword.

Chen Qian was prepared when he threw the punch. He sent the alluring woman flying with one punch, and with his other hand, he snatched Yanran from her hand and pulled her into his arms.

He stepped forward again, took the alluring woman's storage bag, and flicked three fireballs from his fingertips, enveloping the woman within them.

Only then did he look down at Yanran in his arms and find that she had only been drugged by the alluring woman and was not in any danger. So, taking advantage of the opportunity to hide, he sent her into the Gray Pearl World.

A purplish-black liquid gushed from the blood hole in the chest of the Foundation Establishment demon cultivator. He crushed the bone talisman at his waist, and a foul-smelling blood mist suddenly exploded around him.

Each drop of blood transformed into a skull, roaring as it lunged at Old Master Chen.

Taking advantage of the bone talisman barely managing to hold off Old Ancestor Chen, the Foundation Establishment demonic cultivator hurriedly used a secret technique to stay alive, and then swallowed several pills in succession. Not daring to linger in the fight, he immediately fled.
