My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 876 Killing Intent, Prediction Fails (Two Chapters Combined)

"court death!"

After his divine sense had completely scanned the contents of the communication talisman, Shen Changchuan's eyes sharpened.
in an instant,
boom! ! !
A terrifying impact, as real as a physical shock, swept over my entire body!
The ground shattered under intense pressure, and cracks spread out in all directions like a spider web!
This is a manifestation of Shen Changchuan's inability to fully grasp the power of his newly broken-through cultivation realm.
But at the same time,
The dissipation of power in that instant

This is enough to show just how terrifying Shen Changchuan's strength is now!
If there were cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage here...
I fear that the shockwave in that instant would be enough to crush him to death on the spot!

But at this time,

Shen Changchuan no longer had the energy to pay attention to these things.

The message brought forth a long-dormant anger that welled up within him.

At this moment, all his thoughts and attention were focused on the communication talisman in front of him.

This is a distress signal!
The message inside was very simple: "Help! Junior brother, come save me!"

It also provides approximate location information.

This communication talisman is unique to oneself. Once activated, such a personalized talisman will travel across the endless void in a short time through an unseen connection.

If he remembers correctly,
This was something he had previously given to his senior brother Wu Tianhao so that he could be contacted promptly in case of an emergency.

Now this message has brought a distress call.

It seemed that Wu Tianhao had encountered danger and, in desperation, sent out a communication talisman to request his assistance.

just,

After glancing at the message in the message string...
Shen Changchuan realized something was wrong!

"It's a trap!"

In a flash,

Shen Changchuan then understood the essence of the message talisman.

Upon advancing to the Divine Travel Realm

Especially after advancing to the Divine Travel Realm through the Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment,

Shen Changchuan's perception has been greatly enhanced, enabling him to keenly perceive and detect even more subtle details.

He only glanced at it.
They knew that the audio message contained within the communication talisman was fake.
Furthermore, the aura emanating from it was not Wu Tianhao's at all!
The one who sent the message was most likely not Wu Tianhao himself.

It seems,

Everything is obvious!

Who wants to get back at me?
But due to certain concerns...

So they attacked Senior Brother Wu Tianhao and his group, hoping to use them as bait to lure themselves out and fall into their trap!
This,

That's precisely why Shen Changchuan was furious!
Shen Changchuan's face was gloomy. He squeezed his palm hard, and the communication talisman shattered and dissipated into specks of light.

Since transmigrating to this world, what Shen Changchuan finds most annoying and hates most is using his own relatives and friends as threats to target him!

If you can't beat yourself, you scheme against your friends and family.

Such behavior,

That's absolutely disgusting!
That's really making Shen Changchuan look foolish!

"Whoever you are, if you're trying to provoke me, then congratulations, you've succeeded!"

Shen Changchuan's gaze was sharp, his face grim, and he spoke in a deep voice.

Right now,

A chilling killing intent surged and boiled within him.

Regardless of who these people are, and regardless of whether Wu Tianhao and his group survive in the end, he will kill the mastermind behind this!
The temperature of the surrounding air drops rapidly here, seemingly freezing solid.

but,

Although I was angry.
However, Shen Changchuan did not lose his mind because of anger, nor did he act blindly.

Although I may feel somewhat sorry for Senior Brother Wu

But if the other side sets a trap that is almost certain to kill you, wouldn't it be exactly what the mastermind behind the scenes wants if you just rush to support them without making any preparations?

Save lives

He will definitely go to save them.

But going to your death for no reason is unacceptable!
If the trap on the other side is too dangerous, I can always ask my master or grandmaster for help.

With them taking action, all sorts of demons and monsters will vanish into thin air!

Suppress the anger in my heart
Shen Changchuan lowered his head and pondered the current situation.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.
They quickly realized what was going on.

"Perhaps, we don't need to go to our masters yet."

Shen Changchuan's eyes flickered slightly.
He looked thoughtful.

A very simple question,

If the mastermind wanted to kill me, why didn't they just find my location and launch a surprise attack? Instead, they chose to lure me out and set a trap.
And if you want to take action, why choose now?
reason,

It's probably his master, You Longzi, and his uncle, Ming Xuanyang!

Lacking confidence in successfully assassinating the two disciples of the Immortal Sect right under their noses,

Or perhaps they lacked confidence that they could escape alive after committing the murder.

Therefore, they could only wait until their master and Ming Xuanyang left to pursue their opportunity to advance to the Profound Core Realm, and then make their move at a moment when they could not afford to be distracted.
As a result,
Those behind the scenes need not worry about the threats posed by their master and Uncle Mingxuanyang.

even,
The person behind the scenes is probably not very strong either, mostly below the late stage of the Divine Travel Realm.
Without sufficient strength to forcibly break through the protective array of Broken Soul City and enter the city to kill him,
So they attacked Senior Brother Wu Tianhao and his group, and then sent a message to themselves, in order to lure the snake out of its hole!

Several thoughts flashed through my mind.
Shen Changchuan's eyes shone even brighter!
"I left Broken Soul City in secret with the help of my grandmaster. Apart from my master, no one else knew about our plan."

"So in other people's eyes, I should still be in my cave in Broken Soul City, cultivating in seclusion!"

"In this battle, Master took away almost all the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, and there are very few Nascent Soul Realm cultivators left in Broken Soul City."

"Under these circumstances, Broken Soul City is at its weakest. My master and the others, who are on a distant expedition, cannot possibly return to defend it in a short time. Under such circumstances, the enemy did not directly break through Broken Soul City to kill me, but instead chose to lure me out of the city. This is probably not because they did not want to, but because they could not!"

As the thought flashed through my mind,
between breaths,

Shen Changchuan had already made his decision.

"very good!"

"I hope you won't disappoint me!"

A cold glint flashed in Shen Changchuan's eyes, then he acted without the slightest hesitation.

His figure transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky, disappearing into the heavens in the blink of an eye.

All of this seemed long, but in reality, from the moment Shen Changchuan received the message talisman to the moment he made his decision and set off, only twenty or thirty breaths had passed.

of course,

These speculations are just speculations and may not be facts.

Although the truth of the matter is very likely as he suspects,

However, it's also possible that the person behind the scenes is at the peak of the Divine Realm, and that they are simply being cautious and have set up numerous traps to ensure everything goes smoothly.

However, if this worst-case scenario occurs...
Shen Changchuan wasn't afraid at all.

In the preceding six months, his grandmaster, Master Qian Yuan, had done much more than simply guide and instruct him from the sidelines.

As a disciple of Wanren Peak, he has a high probability of becoming a Xuan Dan realm cultivator in the future.

His master had given him many life-saving techniques. Moreover, his master was also within this grotto-heaven world.

If anything happens, I just need to hold on for a while, and my master will be able to come.

Think about the life-saving methods given by my grandmaster. Unless a supreme expert in the Profound Core Realm personally takes action, it's no problem to hold out for a while.

And so,

This line
Shen Changchuan was absolutely confident!
the other side,
Unnamed wilderness and woodland,
Wu Tianhao and the others lay unconscious on the ground.

Situ Yuan stood atop a large tree, gazing up at the cloud-shrouded sky, silent and lost in thought.

"What, are you still worried that Shen Changchuan won't come?"

Shi Mengting floated over like a feather and landed beside him, her gaze also looking towards the sky where he was looking.

The two stood side by side.

Under the dark clouds overhead, amidst the flashing lightning and thunder, they appeared incredibly small.

Hearing the surrounding conversations,
Situ Yuan glanced slightly to the side at Shi Mengting beside him.
Without saying a word, he turned his head and continued to look at the sky in front of him.

Situ Yuan is no fool to have come this far.

The fact that the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Sect, a rival sect and a mortal enemy, treated her with such enthusiasm, and that she had spent over half a year scheming and plotting against Shen Changchuan, following him all the way to this point, is quite remarkable.
If someone says they didn't have any ulterior motives towards me, I doubt anyone would believe it!
Don't be fooled by their seemingly harmonious cooperation now.
But Situ Yuan believed that

The moment they killed Shen Changchuan was the moment they turned against each other, and the other party's scheme was exposed!
For this,

He was naturally very wary.

to be frank,
If there is a choice,

Situ Yuan really didn't want to cooperate with this woman. Instead, he wanted to kill her right here and take her head as credit!

Moreover, he is now joining forces with the enemy of the Immortal Sect to ambush the geniuses of his own sect and stifle the potential future of his sect!
But ultimately, there's nothing we can do.

"If you don't take care of yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth!"

"As someone who left the Wanren Peak lineage at a crucial moment, I am seen by outsiders as an ungrateful villain."

"Even if Li Yangfeng accepts me and seems to value me highly on the surface, they will definitely not truly consider me one of their own because of my past experiences!"

"If I want to go higher and go further, and if I want to one day reach the Xuan Dan realm, I must pay a higher price!"

this moment,
Situ Yuan's gaze as he looked up at the dark sky was incredibly deep.

The reason he came here on his own initiative was to target Shen Changchuan.

This was not because he had any issues with Shen Changchuan.
It's all about profit.

One reason is to express one's attitude to Liyang Peak, where one is currently located.

As the two who were at the forefront of the battle, after Wanren Peak fell, they were able to take advantage of their proximity to the mountain and get a large piece of the cake to support his cultivation.

Wanren Peak is a big, fat piece of meat.

Even if I can't get the most lavish piece,
But even a tiny bit of oil that slips through the fingers of a powerful figure is enough to support his cultivation to the peak of the Divine Travel Realm!
The peak of the Divine Travel Realm is already a seed for the Profound Core Realm!

Reaching that level,

I might one day be able to overcome that insurmountable barrier and become a supreme being in the Profound Core Realm!
Regarding the future,
Situ Yuan had a clear plan.

just,

Do not know why,

As time went by, a vague sense of unease crept into his heart.

Especially now,
That sense of unease grew even stronger!

Could it be that the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Sect plotted against her after the matter was settled?

Situ Yuan thought about it carefully, but still shook his head slightly in his heart.

Regardless of his schemes, the other party was ultimately just a mere peak ninth level Nascent Soul cultivator, whom he could easily crush with a flick of his wrist.

Upon examining the surroundings using his own natal magic weapon, he found no protectors or similar beings.

So that sense of unease
It probably didn't come from a woman nearby.

What could that be from?

Situ Yuan gazed at the swirling clouds above, his eyes gradually growing deeper.

in fact,

He already had the answer.

They just haven't wanted to admit it!

You Longzi!
My former mentor!
Thinking of that person, Situ Yuan's expression gradually turned ugly.

Why?

Why is he qualified to attempt the legendary Profound Core Realm?!

Back when that true Xuan Dan seed emerged from Wanren Peak, he rose to become one of the Seven Sons of the Immortal Sect. Wasn't it said that his chances of ultimately advancing to the Xuan Dan realm were less than one in ten?!
It was precisely because he considered that Wanren Peak had no successor and that the two older generations had lost all hope that he hurriedly left Wanren Peak.

just,

how so!

If that Youlongzi successfully advances to the Profound Core Realm...
Then wouldn't all my plans have become a joke?!
With a supreme expert at the Profound Core Realm in charge, there is absolutely no chance that Wanren Peak will fall!
Then all his efforts, sacrifices, and plans will be in vain!
Not only did they lose sight of the bigger picture and throw away the invaluable discipleship that should have been the true successor of the Xuan Dan Master, but they also sank deep into a quagmire!
Situ Yuan wasn't sure.
Once that Youlongzi successfully advances to the Xuan Dan realm...
So, will those people behind him throw him out as a gift to help Li Yangfeng and Wan Renfeng get back together?
Situ Yuan's unease grew stronger!
He felt he had guessed correctly.

That feeling of unease comes from this!

So much so that he was now somewhat restless.

"Do you think it's possible for You Longzi to successfully break through?"

After a short while,
Situ Yuan finally spoke.

He wasn't sure what the future held, but he was certain that once You Longzi successfully broke through...

His condition is going to be extremely bad!
They might even have to consider leaving the Jade Purity Immortal Sect and seeking refuge in the Heavenly Demon Sect.

This is why Situ Yuan didn't initially target Shi Mengting, the Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

this moment,
That unease lingered in his mind, leaving him in a state of utter confusion.

"Oh, so that's what Senior Situ is worried about?"

A slight look of surprise appeared on Shi Mengting's pretty face at the opportune moment.
But soon, she smiled slightly and said with absolute certainty:
"Senior Situ, please rest assured."

"According to what our grandmaster said, if he relies on himself and Wanrenfeng's help to break through to the Profound Core Realm, then there is still a 30% to 40% chance of success."

"But if he obtains the opportunity left behind by that so-called True Man Minghuan in this world, he will undoubtedly fail!"

Shi Mengting's words were firm and resolute, full of certainty.

"Oh, what do you mean?!"

In a flash,

Situ Yuan's eyes lit up as he looked at Shi Mengting beside him.

"This matter."

Shi Mengting smiled confidently, about to say something...
But at this moment,
Boom! ! !

A dazzling azure sword light, like a celestial river pouring down, fell from beyond the heavens, spanning thousands of feet of void, and crashed down upon them!
