Starting From A Son In Law To Build An Long Lasting Family Chapter 1909: 495: Entering the Myriad Demon Abyss Again, the Might of the Soul-calling Beast!

Though she hasn't shown herself in several years, the sect's daily affairs remain unaffected.

"Fortunately, Mili is present as well; should any sect matters arise, you can have Mili deal with them."

Lu Changsheng gave a nod in agreement, aware that a Nascent Soul Cultivator like Ayoudo typically stays detached from sect operations.

Having elevated her True Elixir to superior grade and advanced to Core Formation Late Stage, Nangong Mili possesses the skill to control the Great Formation, making her fully qualified to lead the Five Poisons Cult.

"Understood, Master."

Ayoudo cast a look toward Nangong Mili's seductive and captivating silhouette in the distance, who had stirred from rest yet remained silent, grasping what Lu Changsheng meant.

At this moment, across the whole Five Poisons Cult, Lu Changsheng places the utmost faith in Nangong Mili, desiring her to view them as true allies and support their growth with full dedication.

....

A month afterward.

Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo quietly reached the outskirts of the Myriad Demon Abyss.

Their joint power ensures they're not concerned about detection by fellow cultivators, yet they proceed with utmost care, working hard to mask their magical energy flows.

Stepping into the Myriad Demon Abyss, shrouded in hazy gray fog and swirling black mists amid eerie wails of ghosts, and spotting no other cultivators nearby, Lu Changsheng eyed the wandering spirits in the Yin Wind, his fingers lightly touching the Qiankun Shadow-Confining Belt.

In a flash, a tiny creature a few inches long materialized, its golden coat gleaming brightly, featuring an oversized snout, and eyes sparkling black like those of a macaque.

Tihun gazed at the approaching Yin Wind and Ghost Fog, letting out thrilled chirps, then abruptly unleashed a pale yellow glow from its enormous nostrils, which cleared the path ahead by sucking in all the Yin Wind and Ghost Fog straight into its belly.

"What is that..."

The Five Poisons Cult Leader stared at the Soul-calling Beast, a hint of astonishment crossing her face.

These were just minor ghosts, after all, ones she could wipe out effortlessly with a single gesture.

But the presence emanating from the Soul-calling Beast and the glow that had just shot from its nostrils sent an odd shiver through her, making it clear this Soul-calling Beast was far from commonplace!

"Impressive."

Lu Changsheng observed the display with steady composure; he seized this chance to gauge the Soul-calling Beast's fighting prowess.

He softly lifted his hand to perch the Soul-calling Beast on his shoulder, then ventured further into the Myriad Demon Abyss alongside Ayoudo.

Whenever Yin Wind Ghost Fog blocked their path, or Yin Souls and malevolent ghosts emerged, Tihun would huff powerfully, releasing a pale yellow radiance from its nostrils to sweep them up and pull them into its gut.

Not even a Third Rank Ghost King could put up any fight against the Soul-calling Beast.

As for Demonized Demon Beasts, the Soul-calling Beast couldn't devour them outright with its innate abilities but instead subdued them via the Soul Capturing Divine Light.

"Only in battle mode does it fully activate; otherwise, the Soul-calling Beast excels at subduing Essence Ghost Kings."

Lu Changsheng understood that against Demonized Demon Beasts, Corpse Kings, or other Demonic Path Cultivators, the Soul-calling Beast needed to shift into battle mode to become a real bane of wickedness and a divine Punisher Beast.

For his purposes right now, though, the Soul-calling Beast's present form proved more than sufficient.

The Soul-calling Beast gobbled up Yin Souls and vicious ghosts as mere snacks; it pinned down Demonized Fierce Beasts and Corpse Demons while Lu Changsheng dispatched them swiftly with his blade.

To onlookers, the deadly Myriad Demon Abyss became a treasure-filled paradise for Lu Changsheng.

The Five Poisons Cult Leader, witnessing this, felt deep amazement and secret admiration.

Typically, Nascent Soul Cultivators venturing into the Myriad Demon Abyss conserved their energy and stamina, steering clear of unnecessary effort.

Yet Lu Changsheng's little companion on his shoulder feasted on souls and ghosts alike, turning the Myriad Demon Abyss's spectral inhabitants into nourishment without a trace of worry, even gaining power from it—utterly invincible.

"Besides the earlier Golden Peng Bird, Master harbors such an extraordinary spirit pet, one whose Mysterious Light inherently curbs the Demonic Path..."

Even the seasoned Five Poisons Cult Leader failed to identify the Soul-calling Beast.

She merely sensed its innate ability held a natural edge over Demonic Path Cultivators.

"Master's journey to the Jin Kingdom with this spirit pet—could it be aimed at stirring chaos for the Yiming Ghost Sect?"

Ayoudo mulled over the thought, forming her guess.

This diminutive beast clearly countered the Demonic Path, proving especially potent against intangible Yin Soul Ghost Kings.

A Third Rank Ghost King had zero hope against the Soul-calling Beast.

If the Yiming Ghost Sect crossed paths with this spirit beast, they'd likely suffer devastating losses.

Thus, Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo cleared through the Myriad Demon Abyss.

While the Soul-calling Beast couldn't fully dominate Demonized Demon Beasts, it keenly detected the scents of evil demons and demonic forces.

Via its sniffing, it could roughly pinpoint nearby Ghost Kings and Demonized Fierce Beasts.

Upon any approach by Ghost Kings or Demonized Demon Beasts, it would warn them right away.

"A Third Rank Top Level Yin Evil Demon Vine—excellent; it works well for crafting a whip-style Magical Treasure or as the key material in Demon Evil Pills..."

The Myriad Demon Abyss brimmed with Demonic Qi, Evil Qi, Ghost Energy, and Turbid Energy, rendering it a barren wasteland scarce in Spiritual Medicine.

Even in this harsh environment, certain rare treasures of heaven and earth still sprouted forth.

"Roar!!! "

After some time, Lu Changsheng and Ayoudo entered the domain of a Fourth Rank Demonized Fierce Beast.

On prior visits to the Myriad Demon Abyss, they'd sidestep Fourth Rank Demonized Fierce Beasts when feasible or withdraw if needed, avoiding direct clashes.

This outing, however, beyond aiding Ayoudo in locating the [Gu God Bowl], aimed squarely at pursuing Fourth Rank Demonized Fierce Beasts!

Sensing the demonic beast's savage presence barreling toward them with thunderous roars and a charging rush, Lu Changsheng stood unflinching as his Fourth Rank Physique stirred to life.

A tremendous, boundless Qi-Blood surged forth like an ancient volcano in eruption, expanding outward to shatter the enveloping black fog and scour the area for tens of miles.

Countless Yin Souls and fiendish ghosts wailed before crumbling to dust on the spot.

"Such presence—Master has truly attained Fourth Rank Body Refining!"

Ayoudo had long suspected Lu Changsheng's power had surged, particularly in body refinement.

Now, beholding his aura in full bloom, she verified it at once, her mind reeling with awe.

Lu Changsheng didn't focus mainly on body refinement, missing the supreme techniques of dedicated body cultivators.

Achieving Fourth Rank was like Nascent Soul Cultivators enduring Heavenly Tribulation.

Conquering that trial with mere physical might and body alone posed an immense ordeal!

"Still, given Master's prowess, the Fourth Rank Body Refining Heavenly Tribulation appears far from insurmountable..."

Thinking back to Lu Changsheng's exploits in the Vast Sand Illusion Realm, Ayoudo figured Fourth Rank Body Refining came as no shock.

In truth, when weighed against mastering Fourth Rank Body Refining, the feat of inverting Core Formation to battle Nascent Soul True Lords seemed far more astonishing.

As a colossal hundred-zhang Double-headed Demonized Lizard howled its way toward them, whipping up endless gales of dust and debris laced with foul odors, the Five Poisons Cult Leader swiftly summoned her Lifebound Spiritual Treasure, the [Five Poison Banner].

The banner unfurled with a flap, its vivid, animated images of Spirit Snakes, Poison Scorpions, Centipedes, Spiders, and Toads seeming to leap into motion, conjuring a thick poisonous mist all around.

"Shriek! Chirp chirp chirp!!!"

The Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng and Soul-calling Beast both fixed their sights on the oncoming Double-headed Demonized Lizard, their eyes alight with fierce combat eagerness.
