Chapter 407: Chapter 119: Nascent Soul Emergence

Although he failed to severely injure the Fifth Young Master.

Lin Chen’s intervention still allowed True Man Changchun a moment to breathe.

With the strength of True Man Changchun, confronting two early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators became quite manageable.

While suppressing the two Nascent Soul cultivators, True Man Changchun surveyed the surrounding battle situation.

Seeing the sudden appearance of over a hundred "mysterious strong persons," True Man Changchun was deeply shocked.

His gaze swept around, finally landing on Lin Chen, and he transmitted his voice to ask:

"Taoist friend, who are you, and why have you come to assist my Changchun Sect?"

Lin Chen had long prepared his response, and upon hearing this, he quickly replied:

"I am Xu Shi from the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, and as for these puppets, they are my guardians..."

"I came here at the behest of your disciple Li Zhenqian. He is a close friend of mine..."

Upon hearing these words, True Man Changchun immediately showed a surprised expression.

Could it be that he had misjudged?

Li Zhenqian, such an insignificant figure, actually knows such a strong person...

"Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, I’ve heard of it before... Is it the sect that Blood Pupil Old Demon has issued a bounty for?"

True Man Changchun didn’t have time to think deeply. Even though he held a resolve to die, he didn’t want to die in vain, and wanted to kill more demon cultivators before his end.

Therefore, he quickly transmitted his voice:

"Taoist friend Xu, thank you for your assistance. However, in this battle, my Changchun Sect is destined for extinction."

"You may cover for me, but if the situation turns dire, just escape to save yourself..."

Lin Chen did not respond after hearing this, focusing entirely on dealing with the Fifth Young Master in front of him.

Even though the Fifth Young Master’s True Essence was mixed and his strength within the mid-stage Nascent Soul was relatively weak.

But with a multitude of protective magical treasures, Lin Chen found it difficult to subdue him for the moment.

Conversely, on True Man Changchun’s side, he was effortlessly handling two early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, repeatedly forcing them into precarious situations.

"Fifth Young Master, when will the ancestor bring reinforcements... We can’t hold on much longer on this side."

After just several dozen exchanges, one of the early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators was already struggling.

His lifebound magical treasure had been destroyed by True Man Changchun.

As Lin Chen dealt with the Fifth Young Master, he observed True Man Changchun’s methods and couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

"Not surprisingly, he is a Nascent Soul True Man who has lived for over a thousand years. His mastery of techniques and divine techniques has reached an extremely profound level."

"Even if I hadn’t come to assist, True Man Changchun facing three Nascent Soul cultivators might not be suppressed for long..."

Lin Chen sighed inwardly.

Thus, after several dozen more exchanges.

One of the early-stage Nascent Souls could no longer endure, letting out a furious roar to temporarily force back True Man Changchun.

"No, I really can’t hold on any longer!"

He clumsily dodged another technique from True Man Changchun, retreating hundreds of feet.

Suddenly, a shocking golden radiance emanated from his entire body.

"Nascent Soul Emergence!"

The Nascent Soul True Man’s flesh body floated in mid-air.

Simultaneously, a baby-like figure with a short stature appeared before everyone.

"Forced out the Nascent Soul?"

Lin Chen’s heart stirred.

This Nascent Soul Emergence was the last resort for a Nascent Soul True Man.

It greatly amplifies strength, even surpassing a Golden Core cultivator’s shattered core.

Except the side effects of Nascent Soul Emergence aren’t as severe, as it only weakens the divine soul for a period.

But if the Nascent Soul is destroyed, it means immediate death, with no chance to fall into the wheel of reincarnation or possess another body.

After the Nascent Soul Emergence, the magical true essence of the unknown Nascent Soul cultivator increased dramatically.

For the moment, he was able to contend with True Man Changchun.

Seeing this situation, the other early-stage Nascent Soul similarly didn’t hold back and performed Nascent Soul Emergence.

Suddenly, True Man Changchun was confronted by two golden emergent Nascent Souls.

"Heh, starting to fight desperately now, are we?"

"The cultivation gained from demon skills is ultimately inferior to what is obtained through one’s own cultivation..."

True Man Changchun sneered, showing little fear on his face.

Although the strength of the two Nascent Soul cultivators increased with their Nascent Soul Emergence, the control of the situation remained in Lin Chen’s hands.

Lin Chen watched the adept True Man Changchun, silently comparing his strength with his own.

"True Man Changchun is strong, but ultimately hasn’t entered the late-stage Nascent Soul... While he might still have a chance against a late-stage Nascent Soul, he’d likely lose."

"I, being in the mid-stage Nascent Soul, coupled with high-level Martial King’s strength, can at least hold a sixty-forty situation against a late-stage Nascent Soul."

"Under Divinity Transformation, there should be few who can pose a threat to me..."

Lin Chen thought to himself quietly.

Even now, facing the Fifth Young Master, he was still holding back, not using his full strength.

The hidden cards of the Demon Sect were unknown to Lin Chen, and Blood Pupil Old Demon could come to provide support anytime.

He had to conserve some power.

Furthermore, some techniques of Gathering Qi and Dispersing Form were not suitable to display directly in front of others.

Otherwise, they might be associated with his true identity, which would be extremely unfavorable for Lin Chen.

However, even so, Lin Chen’s attacks pushed the Fifth Young Master to a precarious edge.

Simultaneously, over a hundred mid-stage Golden Core martial arts puppets began slaughtering the demon cultivator’s side.

After several dozen more exchanges, Lin Chen released a strike that pierced the Fifth Young Master’s body.

But in an instant, a black light flashed over the Fifth Young Master, and the wound healed instantly.

The Fifth Young Master’s figure flashed and reappeared a hundred feet away from Lin Chen.

"The seventh life-saving treasure..."

Lin Chen muttered, feeling somewhat pained.

"Damn it, these treasures should be mine after I kill him, but they were used directly by him!"

Feeling a bit frustrated, Lin Chen resolutely decided to kill the Fifth Young Master.

As a direct lineage of Guangyuan Commerce Association, the Fifth Young Master held noble status.

If he could be slain, the resources in his storage bag would surely satisfy Lin Chen greatly.

Thinking of this, Lin Chen exerted more effort.

In contrast, the Fifth Young Master, having lost several life-saving treasures, had a face alternating between red and purple, clearly in deep pain.

He hurriedly said to Lin Chen:

"Taoist friend, why meddle in the affairs between the Nether Realm and Changchun Sect?"

"The Nether Realm is powerful, this is the major trend in Qing State, even if you’re a Nascent Soul cultivator, it’s hard to resist... why wade into this muddy water?"

As he spoke, the Fifth Young Master glanced around and continued:

"If Taoist friend is willing to stop now, I promise to act as if nothing ever happened... and even offer you a generous compensation afterward."

Lin Chen’s heart responded with slight disdain, and he snorted coldly:

"My Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect and your Demon Sect’s grudges go beyond just a day or two. I suppose my bounty order is still hanging in your Demon Sect’s grand hall?"

Upon hearing this, the Fifth Young Master’s heart grew cold.

He knew well that the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect had deep-seated grievances with the Demon Sect.

Blood Pupil Old Demon had long wanted to eliminate this sect.

But the Fifth Young Master still gritted his teeth and said:

"Taoist friend, after this battle, I can have the ancestor revoke the bounty order."

"Previous grievances wiped clean, the Nether Realm and Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect will be allies for generations... will you consider?"

Lin Chen listened, feeling even more disdainful.

He understood that Blood Pupil Old Demon would never let him go.

The old demon coveted his flesh body; this matter involved his path of cultivation, so how could he abandon it?

Therefore, Lin Chen released his True Essence and wielded a flying knife toward the Fifth Young Master.

Being forced to reveal his cards one after another, the Fifth Young Master was no longer calm.

Knowing that even though he still held some trump cards, continuing like this would eventually exhaust all he had.

Thinking of this, the Fifth Young Master no longer hesitated.

Anger flashed in his eyes as he said:

"Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit!"

"Since that’s the case, don’t force me!"

With that said, dazzling golden light flashed on the Fifth Young Master’s body.

In the next second, the baby’s form of the Fifth Young Master appeared before Lin Chen.

Nascent Soul Emergence!
