Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1837: 471: Another Severing, Escape from Danger (part 3)

The natural Qi mechanism of the world fell into utter chaos at that moment. Azure Phoenix True Monarch brandished the Green Gold Spear, utilizing the Daoist Soldier Battle Formation to tear through the Great Void, seeking to pull Lu Changsheng into the violent, turbulent void currents.
"Since you all harbor a death wish, I shall grant it!"
Lu Changsheng was well aware that he could not prolong this combat; otherwise, even the potent effects of the Mystic Dragon Nirvana Pill would fail to maintain his state.
Coldness flickered in his gaze as he looked upon the four aggressive Nascent Soul Cultivators and those hiding in the shadows.
"Golden Peng, return!"
Following his command, the Brahman Demon True Body manifesting behind him began to surge wildly. The three energies—Buddha Light, Demon Runes, and Demon Qi—vibrated violently, causing the spiritual energy of the surrounding environment to churn in turmoil.
"Something is wrong!"
The pupils of a Nascent Soul Cultivator at the front constricted sharply as he witnessed Lu Changsheng’s maneuver.
"Hurry, stop him!"
Another Nascent Soul Cultivator screamed a warning; even Azure Phoenix True Monarch felt a jolt of alarm at Lu Changsheng's reckless actions.
"Whoosh!"
Without hesitation, the Brahman Demon True Body lunged directly toward the opposition.
"Retreat!"
"Get out of here, fast!"
"He is a lunatic, a total madman!"
While they didn't view the Brahman Demon True Body as a legitimate Dharma True Body, they had all just seen it wield the Great Luo Sword Embryo with devastating force.
The aura of an impending self-explosion sent shivers down the spines of everyone present. The Brahman Demon True Body pulsed, expanding and contracting while flickering between light and shadow, before it detonated in a violent flash.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
World-shaking blasts thundered through the void. The air was filled with a cacophony of Buddhist chants, the wails of demons, and the terrifying roars of countless monsters...
Catastrophic forces, a volatile mixture of the three energies, erupted from the void and tore numerous cracks across the firmament. Even though this occurred over the Endless Wilderness, the resulting shockwaves pulverized the sand and earth for a hundred miles in every direction.
The nearby Nascent Soul Cultivators were sent reeling, coughing up blood with their bodies and magical robes shredded. Even those Nascent Soul Cultivators lurking in wait were caught in the aftershocks; they spat blood, their faces turning deathly pale as parts of their bodies were nearly blown apart.
"What is this man actually trying to achieve..."
"After an explosion like that, surely he must be dead?"
"Yangming True Master..."
One Nascent Soul Cultivator stared toward the spot where Lu Changsheng and Azure Phoenix True Monarch had vanished into the Great Void, his voice trembling with shock.
"After them!"
Men die for wealth just as birds perish for food.
Despite being terrified by Lu Changsheng’s savage combat prowess, several Nascent Soul Cultivators dove into the Void, desperate to track the Qi signatures of the pair.
They reasoned that after battling seven Nascent Soul Cultivators and exhausting so many trump cards, the duo’s Magic Aura must be in shambles, leaving them with no strength for another counterattack.
...
Deep within the Great Void, dark and turbulent currents howled like the cries of ghosts.
A stunningly beautiful green Simurgh moved with the speed of teleportation, conjuring an endless emerald Heavenly Wind to pierce through the layers of chaotic currents.
Azure Phoenix True Monarch sat upon the bird's back, her face drained of color and her green armor webbed with cracks. Beside her, Lu Changsheng appeared in even worse condition; his black hair was a tangled mess, his robes were in tatters, and his face was a bloodless mask of death.
As the surging Qi-Blood and magical power—which had temporarily reached the Nascent Soul level—ebbed away, she could feel a thick medicinal energy circulating through his frame.
However, it was clear that Lu Changsheng’s state was critical.
His physical strength and magical reserves were totally spent. The previous outburst had devastated his internal systems, leaving his Meridians and Dantian nearly ninety percent destroyed.
In such a state, even if his life force managed to endure and heal slowly, the damage was so catastrophic that he might remain a cripple even if he woke up.
"Why would he go to such lengths..."
Azure Phoenix True Monarch whispered as she watched the unconscious Lu Changsheng. She couldn't comprehend why he would throw his life away for her.
While they shared a history and she had assisted him in the past, it didn't seem to justify this level of self-sacrifice.
"Mu Qinghuang, this man is gambling his life for yours. Is he perhaps a devoted follower of yours?"
The mocking words of True Monarch Yin Lei echoed in her mind. Though she had dismissed the taunt at the time, the memory resurfaced as she looked at Lu Changsheng’s broken body.
"Or perhaps his wife possesses a method to save him?"
She thought of Hong Lian, whom she had encountered once before. Although Hong Lian had only displayed a Core Formation Sixth Layer cultivation, Azure Phoenix True Monarch suspected she was actually a Nascent Soul Cultivator hiding her true Cultivation.
"Regardless, this debt of gratitude is far too heavy..."
Gazing at the senseless Lu Changsheng, her pale, sharp features hardened as if she were weighing a difficult choice.
Mu Qinghuang had cultivated for centuries and had always avoided being beholden to others. But now...
Even if his wife could potentially heal him, she felt that she could never truly repay the kindness he showed today.
"Little Qing, move!"
Having reached a decision, she looked down at the Simurgh. She struck her Dantian sharply, causing her Nascent Soul Spirit Body—a miniature version of herself—to manifest and spit out a glob of Origin Essence.
In a flash of green light, the Simurgh accelerated, tearing through the endless void currents and vanishing hundreds of miles into the distance.
