Chapter 244 - 190: Giant Whale Gang, Heart Demon Devouring God Array

This time, he was heading out to kill Lin Chang’sheng with his own hands and seize his fortunes.

To help himself break through to a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator.

Once he reached the rank of Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, he’d be able to unify the Southern Domain Cultivation Realm.

Su Changkong’s ambitions weren’t just to hold onto the Liuyun Immortal Sect.

"Elder Li, you’ll be in charge of the sect for now!"

Su Changkong’s figure vanished, but his voice echoed across the sky.

Hearing this, Li Jiantang’s lips curled up in a slight smile.

After learning what kind of man Su Changkong was, Li Jiantang still chose to remain in Liuyun Immortal Sect—with his own agenda, of course.

That was to eventually take over Liuyun Immortal Sect.

Now that Su Changkong was away, if he died out there—it’d honestly be the best outcome.

.....

In a forest three thousand miles outside Yanyue Immortal Sect.

Lin Chang’sheng looked down at four corpse puppets lying on the ground. After casting the last technique, the four corpse puppets suddenly opened their eyes wide.

If a regular person saw this, they’d probably be scared shitless.

But Lin Chang’sheng was totally unfazed.

After all, these were the corpse puppets he’d spent painstaking effort refining himself.

"All done!"

Lin Chang’sheng let out a long breath. It had taken him just over three days to finish refining these four Late Stage Golden Core corpse puppets.

[Detected: ten advanced Golden Corpses. Fuse into one King Corpse?]

Just as Lin Chang’sheng finished, a prominent prompt flashed on the panel.

"Fuse!"

Lin Chang’sheng chose fusion without hesitation. This was exactly what he’d been waiting for.

In the next instant, ten Golden Corpses lit up with dazzling radiance, then converged towards one spot.

Once the lights faded, a massive, burly, imposing corpse puppet appeared before Lin Chang’sheng.

"Nascent Soul cultivation?"

Lin Chang’sheng sensed it, and sure enough, there was Nascent Soul level magical power surging inside this puppet.

"Who’d have thought—before even reaching Nascent Soul myself, I’ve already managed to refine a Nascent Soul level corpse puppet!"

Lin Chang’sheng couldn’t help but chuckle at himself.

Still, since this corpse puppet was fully under his control, it definitely boosted his fighting power.

"Time to test this thing’s strength!"

Lin Chang’sheng left the cave and started directing the puppet to move outside.

Its movement speed was actually much faster than his own.

BOOM—

Lin Chang’sheng commanded the puppet to attack, and the mountain ahead shattered into rubble with a single punch.

Its power was easily on par with Lin Chang’sheng himself.

If Lin Chang’sheng didn’t have the peak basic Nascent Soul body, he might not actually be able to beat the puppet mano-a-mano.

"With this, even if I run into a middle stage Nascent Soul cultivator, I can hold my own without relying on arrays!"

Lin Chang’sheng was more than satisfied with the puppet’s prowess.

It responded perfectly to his commands.

As soon as he wished it, the puppet moved.

"Wonder how far away I can send the puppet before I lose control?"

Lin Chang’sheng was curious, so he started putting distance between himself and the puppet.

He figured he’d lose control once he was ten miles away.

But to his surprise, he had to separate by a full three thousand miles before losing control.

"Looks like the range for controlling a corpse puppet is related to your divine sense! The wider the reach, the farther you can control them!"

After storing the puppet, Lin Chang’sheng quickly continued west.

He’d already lost three days and had to make up for it fast.

He couldn’t afford to waste any more time.

Every second counted.

To avoid being recognized, Lin Chang’sheng again disguised himself as Yu Xiaochang for the journey.

Half a month later—Triangle City.

This city was the closest in the Southern Domain Cultivation Realm to the Demon Evil Sea.

It was named for the thick high walls built on three sides, forming a triangle.

Most folks in Triangle City made their living fishing.

The city streets were filled with the shouts of vendors hawking sea fish.

At that moment, a young man wandered the streets, taking in everything around him.

It was Lin Chang’sheng, who’d come all the way from Yanyue Immortal Sect.

"I’ve gotta find someone who knows the Demon Evil Sea. Need a guide to head offshore. Otherwise, I’d get lost in the endless waves."

Lin Chang’sheng muttered to himself.

He’d considered getting Qi Hui to show him the way, but who knew what scheme the kid might be up to?

If the brat gave him bad directions and his Breaking Sky magical power ran dry out there, he could really end up dead in the water.

Besides, the sea was far from safe—aside from the Demon Evil Storms that flared up out of nowhere, there were all kinds of sea beasts to deal with.

Some sea beasts were even stronger than Golden Core cultivators.

Some were a match for Nascent Soul experts.

Of course, the stronger the beast, the further from shore they stayed, with most dwelling near the heart of Demon Evil Sea.

"Huh? Someone’s targeting me already?"

Lin Chang’sheng could sense three figures behind him, their eyes locked onto his back.

He immediately slipped off the street, heading for a deserted alleyway.

The trio behind him saw this and followed right away.

But when the three stepped into the alley, Lin Chang’sheng was nowhere to be seen.

"Fuck, where’d that kid go? He was just here!"

"I swear I saw him walk into this alley. Where’d he disappear to?"

"Thought we’d snagged a big fish, but turns out we wasted our time!"

The three grumbled, annoyed they’d missed their catch.

"You guys looking for me?"

Before they could react, a voice sounded behind them.

They spun around—and Lin Chang’sheng was standing right there.

The three were only seventh or eighth layer Foundation Establishment at best, and dared target him? Idiots.

Of course, Lin Chang’sheng had disguised himself as Yu Xiaochang, suppressing his cultivation to the sixth layer Foundation Establishment.

Which—naturally—made them see him as a big fish.

Ready to carve him up.

Cultivators carried more cash than ordinary folks, after all.

Spirit stones and magical artifacts weren’t cheap.

One score would be enough to coast for a year.

"Tough luck running into us, kid. Hand over your spirit stones, magical artifacts, and anything else valuable. Otherwise, don’t blame us if our blades don’t know mercy!"

The one-eyed leader pulled out a lower grade magical artifact from his storage bag and waved it menacingly at Lin Chang’sheng.

The other two drew their gear, ready to teach Lin Chang’sheng a lesson.

Lin Chang’sheng couldn’t help but laugh.

He’d just been stressing over who to ask for directions—and here was the answer, delivered straight to him.

The folks who knew the most were always cultivators; asking some local layman wouldn’t get you anywhere.

These guys’d have to be experts on the area and the Demon Evil Sea.

"Spirit stones and magical artifacts are so basic. I’ve got a spirit treasure—think you boys might be interested?"

Lin Chang’sheng sneered.

"Spirit treasure?"

At the mention, One-Eye’s pupils lit up. A spirit treasure was worth a thousand times more than what they carried. Grab that, and he’d be set for life.

"Good. Now you know your place. Hand it over and maybe we’ll let you live!"

One-Eye barked.

Pretending to be righteous.

"Then pay attention—"

Lin Chang’sheng flicked his wrist, and summoned the Spirit Treasure Godslaying Blade from his Golden Core.

The powerful Golden Core aura washed over them, as did the overwhelming pressure of the spirit treasure.

Instantly, the trio’s knees trembled and their eyes went wide with panic.

"A-A Golden Core expert?"

One-Eye saw Lin Chang’sheng’s real cultivation burst forth and swallowed hard.

They’d just kicked the damn iron wall.
