Chapter 912 - 912 19 Departure from the Pass_3

Chapter 912: Chapter 19 Departure from the Pass_3 Chapter 912: Chapter 19 Departure from the Pass_3 As the Deputy Master of the Earth Hall and being within the Sect, under normal circumstances, there would be hardly any opportunity for him to take action.

But one could easily guess that to suppress a group of Nascent Souls and seize the position of Master of the Earth Hall, Song Dongyang’s strength would never be weak; and for someone to not even give him a chance to respond, that existence could only be…

“An Incense-burning Dao Immortal Ascension cultivator?”

Wang Ba frowned and pondered:

“May I ask if the Uncle Master is aware of the presence of any Immortal Ascension cultivators in Qiao State currently?”

Upon hearing this, Tang Ji shook his head decisively: “It couldn’t be an Immortal Ascension.”

Seeing Wang Ba’s slight confusion, he explained:

“Although Incense Fire Dao cultivators can improve their cultivation base quickly by acquiring a large number of followers to receive feedback from the gods they worship, and do not need to pass through the Thunder Tribulation, the big problem with this way of cultivation is that their cultivation base is entirely limited by the god they serve.”

“So far, Incense Fire Dao cultivators have only reached the Nascent Soul stage.”

“Only those evil gods are comparable to the Divine Transformation Level… and within the Kingdom of Immortals, there really aren’t many evil gods that are truly at the Immortal Ascension level.”

“In the battle that resulted in the fall of the Great Qi, only a little more than twenty evil gods appeared.”

Wang Ba couldn’t help but say:

“But more than twenty evil gods at the Immortal Ascension level is still quite a few, isn’t it?”

Tang Ji was unimpressed:

“At the Immortal Ascension level, there are stronger and weaker beings.

Although these evil gods are comparable to Immortal Ascension, in reality, according to our intelligence, these evil gods, although much stronger than a Nascent Soul Cultivator like me, are only the weakest among those at the Immortal Ascension level, far from matching a true Immortal Ascension cultivator.”

Wang Ba heard this and pondered:

“So, the reason why the Qi Dynasty’s Royal Clan, with only six Immortal Ascension cultivators, could rely on formations to contend with the Kingdom of Immortals all this time…”

“Could it be that in Qiao State now, there exists an evil god?”

This time, Tang Ji wasn’t as certain.

“It’s unclear.

Previously, these evil gods almost never left their lair within the Kingdom of Immortals.

After the Great Qi was defeated, no one knows where they went.”

“However, precautions must be taken…

...

I had already requested the Sect to send someone to guard this place, but unfortunately, there has been no movement yet.”

Wang Ba heard this and shook his head slightly.

His mind couldn’t help but return to the memories of the old West Sea Country.

There, too, there was no Immortal Ascension presence.

His heart grew heavier once more.

“Could it be they want to use the Kingdom of Immortals to temper their disciples?”

“Last time it was Master Yao Wudi, this time who will it be?”

His gaze swept over Tang Ji and the other few Nascent Soul Cultivators atop the peak, and he couldn’t help but shake his head inwardly.

None of them gave him the impression that they were as capable as Tang Ji.

He had witnessed Tang Ji’s skills, and honestly, although formidable, they were not on par with Master Yao Wudi’s, nor did they compare to Xumi’s.

If he were a high-level member of the Sect, under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn’t specifically create this so-called tempering for Tang Ji.

It doesn’t quite add up.

“Then who could it be?”

Wang Ba’s gaze shifted subtly, but he still couldn’t figure it out.

He was deep in thought.

Suddenly, a Nascent Soul Cultivator’s expression changed and he said urgently:

“There’s a situation!”

Tang Ji and Wang Ba were startled and hurried forward.

Although Wang Ba’s soul was quite strong, he was still only at the Golden Core stage, and his Spiritual Sense swept across the area but found nothing out of the ordinary.

However, Tang Ji immediately sensed something and his eyes revealed shock:

“It’s Enforcer Bao!”

Startled, Wang Ba quickly asked:

“Is it just him?

Where is Master Song?”

Tang Ji’s face immediately revealed a joyful smile:

“Just him, but there’s a group of strange-looking cultivators following him!”

Wang Ba was slightly startled and then understood, somewhat surprised:

“They’ve already found the cultivators from Great Qi?”

Tang Ji restrained his joy and nodded: “It should be.

I see Enforcer Bao is in control, but those following him appear to be quite flustered and nervous, so it seems I’m not mistaken.”

After saying this, he immediately went to meet them.

Wang Ba quickly stopped Tang Ji:

“Uncle Master, it would be best to first confirm if it is truly Enforcer Bao.”

Tang Ji instantly came to a realization, looking at Wang Ba with appreciative eyes:

“You are right; you’re always the more cautious one!”

Wang Ba didn’t say more.

He had seen plenty of Spirit Possession cases, especially among the Incense-burning Dao Cultivators, whose souls were often far stronger than ordinary cultivators.

Even those at the Qi Refining stage could possess others, leaving a lasting impression on him.

Therefore, this served as a reminder to always remain vigilant.

The other Nascent Soul Cultivators around him heard Wang Ba’s words and also cast admiring looks his way.

Caution is the parent of safety, which becomes ever more apparent the longer one’s Cultivation practice endures.

Immediately, Tang Ji and two other Nascent Soul Cultivators swiftly prepared and then went to meet the newcomers.

Wang Ba held onto the Spirit Beast Bag tightly, his gaze fixed in the direction of Tang Ji and the others.

Before long, within the range covered by Wang Ba’s Spiritual Sense, he finally sensed Enforcer Bao’s presence, along with a group of Golden Core Craftsman looking haggard and extremely disheveled.

About a dozen or so, and among them, there were neither Nascent Souls nor Foundation Establishments.

Wang Ba was slightly relieved.

Nascent Souls were too conspicuous, and Foundation Establishments couldn’t have held on till now, so a group of Golden Core Cultivators escaping by luck from the territory of the Kingdom of Immortals made the most sense.

Tang Ji and the others did not take things lightly, carefully inspecting everyone.

While Enforcer Bao comforted the somewhat agitated Golden Core Cultivators, he also willingly submitted to the inspection.
