Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1826: 468: Azure Phoenix True Monarch, End of the Secret Realm!

Previously on Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family...
The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng is pushed to its absolute limit as Lu Changsheng is relentlessly pursued by Ming Sha True Monarch and his allies. Just as Lu Changsheng prepares for a desperate final stand using his secret treasures, the sudden arrival of Azure Phoenix True Monarch and her Simurgh shifts the tide. Intimidated by her presence and their own waning strength, the three pursuers choose to retreat, leaving Lu Changsheng to explain the conflict to his unexpected savior.

The notion of a Nascent Soul cultivator holding their own against a Nascent Soul True Lord is already staggering enough.

Yet, this individual possesses a hidden treasure and actually dares to engage in a life-and-death struggle against three Nascent Soul True Lords simultaneously?

Such a feat is simply beyond comprehension!

Despite the absurdity, Azure Phoenix True Monarch found herself inclined to believe it to some extent.

"The life-bound beast of Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch is a mutated Heavenly Silkworm. Utilizing this creature, one can vaguely perceive the Qi of Heaven and Earth or track magical auras that remain undetectable to ordinary senses through a specialized technique."

Even though Azure Phoenix True Monarch had only recently achieved the Nascent Soul stage, her four centuries of life had granted her access to many profound secrets.

Her interest in Beast God Mountain was particularly keen, given her own expertise in Beast Taming and her command over Daoist soldiers and fourth-rank Azure Phoenixes.

"Detecting magical auras that others cannot?"

Lu Changsheng was aware that certain demon beasts possessed extraordinary olfactory senses—much like the common Seeking Spirit Mouse or Treasure-seeking Mouse—allowing them to pick up scents invisible to most.

However, he hadn't realized that the spirit beast of Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch held such a specialized capability.

It explained why, despite his best efforts to lose them, he was constantly being tracked down.

"It appears your spirit beast was tainted by the toxins of Beast God Mountain. This Beast Spirit Detoxification Pill should provide some relief."

Observing the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, Azure Phoenix True Monarch retrieved a porcelain flask from her storage ring and tossed it toward Lu Changsheng.

This gesture wasn't merely repayment for the favor of the Phoenix True Feather; Lu Changsheng’s recent display of power made her genuinely interested in forming an alliance.

Furthermore, considering the nature of her own cultivation technique and her recognition of Lu Changsheng’s immense karmic fortune, she knew that befriending him would be highly advantageous!

"My thanks to you, Azure Phoenix Daoist."

Lu Changsheng caught the medicine and gave it a quick sniff. Confirming it was indeed a detoxification elixir, even if its exact potency was unknown, he administered it to the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng.

Once the pill was consumed, the bird's agitation subsided slightly, though a profound exhaustion began to settle over its frame.

"What brings Azure Phoenix Daoist to this location?"

Lu Changsheng inquired, curious about her current availability.

If Ming Sha True Monarch could recruit Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch and Tan Mei True Monarch to hunt him, he could just as easily enlist Azure Phoenix True Monarch to turn the tables.

Beyond the matter of the Double-headed Flood Dragon Demon Pill and the guidance given to his son, Lu Qingxuan, Azure Phoenix True Monarch still owed him a debt of gratitude.

If he could convince her to join him, their combined strength might be enough to take down Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch.

Lu Changsheng was well aware that the woman before him was no run-of-the-mill Nascent Soul Cultivator; she was at least an Earth Dao Nascent Soul. With her Azure Phoenix Daoist Soldiers and a fourth-rank Azure Phoenix, her combat efficiency far outstripped others of her rank.

"I happen to have some business to attend to in this area, and I am currently making my way toward the central region. Would Daoist Yangming care to accompany me?"

While the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng was badly hurt, Azure Phoenix True Monarch could tell that Lu Changsheng himself was relatively fine.

Even if he were injured, his earlier claim of being able to fight to the death using a secret treasure made him an ally worth inviting.

"The central area..."

Lu Changsheng realized she wouldn't abandon the prime opportunities of the Secret Realm just to help him hunt Ming Sha True Monarch and his cohorts.

After a moment of reflection, he replied, "With the Golden Peng in this condition and only a few trump cards left in my possession, I am hesitant to dive deeper into the Secret Realm's conflicts. Does Azure Phoenix Daoist know of a way to bypass the tracking abilities of the Heavenly Silkworm?"

Lu Changsheng understood her motivations for heading to the center.

However, he relied on tools like the Sun and Moon Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, which required secrecy. He didn't dare venture into the central zone where he might be exposed.

If he were spotted, the danger would be immense. Particularly, his primary defense against Nascent Soul experts was the Great Luo Sword Embryo; if a sword specialist like Xuanjian True Monarch laid eyes on it, greed could easily lead to disaster.

Azure Phoenix True Monarch fixed her beautiful eyes on Lu Changsheng and explained, "While Heavenly Silkworm True Monarch uses his life-bound beast to track you, its range is not infinite. If you remain mobile and avoid staying in one spot, it becomes difficult for him to maintain a lock on your position."

"Furthermore, you can utilize the blood and demon qi of other beasts to disrupt the Qi mechanism, effectively masking your scent and confusing his senses."

Azure Phoenix True Monarch advised.

"Is it truly that straightforward?"

Lu Changsheng was stunned, surprised that the solution was so simple. He realized he had been hindered by his own lack of specialized knowledge.

"It is. Though such tracking methods are potent, they are not invincible. In the outside world, if you possessed a treasure to mask heavenly secrets, you could simply use the void's chaos or the Nine Heavens Gang Wind to break the trail."

"I can also attempt to suppress your aura further, though I cannot promise it will make you entirely invisible to the Heavenly Silkworm."

Azure Phoenix True Monarch gave a light laugh. Her sharp, striking features radiated a blend of cold arrogance and heroic charm.

Whether it was her bloodline progress or her spirit beast's ascent to the fourth rank, much of her success was rooted in Lu Changsheng’s Phoenix True Feather. Consequently, she had always treated him with kindness.

Additionally, Lu Changsheng’s shocking display of power earned him her respect as an equal.

"Then I shall rely on your assistance, Daoist."

Lu Changsheng immediately cupped his hands in a gesture of gratitude.

"Buzz!"

Azure Phoenix True Monarch gracefully formed a Dharma Seal with her fingers. A bead of vibrant red blood emerged from her fingertip, circling Lu Changsheng like a miniature Phoenix.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng felt a subtle Qi envelop him, masking his presence and dispersing his magical signature.

"My thanks, Azure Phoenix Daoist!"

He bowed and then retrieved two spiritual items taken from Lou Mountain True Monarch, offering them to her. "A small token of my appreciation. I wish you great success in the Secret Realm."

"Daoist Yangming, you are far too modest."

Azure Phoenix True Monarch accepted the gifts without hesitation. "The primary opportunities of the Secret Realm are expected to manifest in about half a month. Are you absolutely certain you won't join me?"

She held most Nascent Soul cultivators in the realm in low regard, but Lu Changsheng remained an enigma she couldn't fully decipher, leading her to extend the invitation once more.
