Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 1149 Reunion with Le'er, The Final Battle Begins

Ning Fa looked surprised; he never expected that things would be like this in Mitian Valley.

At this moment, Luo Feixuan sighed deeply and said with a worried look on her face, "But this stalemate will not last long."

Because in less than twenty years, there will be a rare occurrence of the Seven Stars Aligning with the Moon, at which time the power of the Moon will be at its peak, which will directly affect the Xuan Tian Yan Yue Mirror.

At that time, the part controlled by Shen Cizhou, the Yan Yue Jian, will definitely benefit the most, and it should be enough to suppress the power of the Xuan Tian Evil Blade.

Shen Cizhou will definitely launch a strong attack at that time. His offensive has been slowed down over the years, and he has obviously been waiting for this moment.

I had been worried about this matter, but unexpectedly, fate intervened, and I was fortunate enough to meet Brother Ning. Moreover, you've just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage.

As she spoke, Luo Feixuan looked at Ning Fa with anticipation.

Ning Fa narrowed his eyes slightly. Luo Feixuan's meaning was self-evident; she clearly regarded him as her savior.

But Ning Fa wouldn't easily believe her now, and said directly, "Where are Ling Yun, Le'er, and Lan Dian? I need to see them first."

Ning Fa's cold and hard attitude made Luo Feixuan smile bitterly: "Don't worry, you will see them when you enter the inner valley with me later. But it's not possible now. We have to wait until a special moment to enter the valley in order to have a chance to deceive Shen Cizhou."

Moreover, Brother Ning, you should know that Fellow Daoist Zhu has now been recognized by the Void Mirror of the Moon Mirror, and her Void God Crystal Core has established a connection with the Void Mirror. Therefore, Shen Cizhou will definitely not let her go.

Only by devouring her illusory god crystal core can Shen Cizhou possibly control the illusory mirror.

Moreover, they did not give up on Le'er's divination power, and it was only possible to shield it from Yan Yuejian's presence.

Therefore, even for the sake of Fellow Daoist Zhu and Le'er, I humbly request Brother Ning's assistance.

Ning Fa frowned upon hearing this, and a surge of murderous aura erupted from him: "You dare threaten me?"

Luo Feixuan's illusory figure swayed for a moment, a hint of shock flashing in her eyes. She immediately smiled bitterly and said, "I was just telling the truth and had no intention of threatening Brother Ning."

Moreover, Brother Ning is helping us in order to save himself. After all, as far as I know, Gu Zun and Yuan Zun have a great grudge against you, and they are currently cooperating with Shen Cizhou.

Moreover, once the virtual mirror and the real mirror of the Moon Mirror are combined into one, we can return to the spirit world. At the same time, the blockade of the primordial energy in the human world can also be lifted.

With Brother Ning's strength, even without cultivating to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, he will be able to ascend to the Spirit Realm.

But Ningfa still looked at her expressionlessly.

Luo Feixuan seemed to know what Ning Fa was thinking, and sighed softly, "Brother Ning, are you worried about my clan's Xuan Tian Treasure? But in reality, there is no need to be like this."

When our Shenyue clan fled to your human realm, the Yanyue Mirror had already fallen from the Xuan Tian rank due to the loss of too much of its essence. Therefore, even if it were to reunite, it would at most recover to the level of a rudimentary innate spiritual treasure.

Moreover, in such a low-level interface, it cannot exert much power at all, and poses little threat to Brother Ning.

Furthermore, Brother Ning should not even think about using this treasure for his own purposes, because those who are not members of my Divine Moon Clan cannot gain its approval, let alone activate it.

"Fellow Daoist Zhu is a special case. Not only can she cultivate the Void God Technique, but I also used the last bit of my clan's treasured source blood on her. At this point, she can be considered a pure member of the Divine Moon Clan."

Ning Fa's eyes flickered upon hearing this. After a moment's thought, he calmly said, "I still want to see them first."

Luo Feixuan nodded: "Alright, Brother Ning, please come with me first."

Next, Ning Fa followed Luo Feixuan to a special place on the edge of the inner valley. After waiting for most of the day, Luo Feixuan cast a spell to tear open a hidden crack in the inner barrier, allowing them to enter the inner valley.

After another half day, we arrived at a seemingly ordinary valley.

Upon entering the valley, Ning Fa immediately showed excitement, because he sensed several very familiar auras.

Ning Fa hadn't taken more than a few steps when a streak of light flew in from the depths of the valley, revealing a girl in a white dress who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old.

She was exquisitely beautiful, and although she was young, her beauty was already captivating. She was a little older than Le'er.

At this moment, she was clearly radiating the peak of the early Nascent Soul stage.

Seeing Ning Fa suddenly appear, her eyes instantly filled with tears. She rushed into his arms like a whirlwind, tightly hugging his waist, and sobbed:
"Father, I knew you wouldn't die. I've been waiting for you to come back..."

Ning Fa's eyes also welled up with tears as he gently patted Le'er's back.

At this moment, two more beautiful figures flew out. The one on the left was dressed in a silver palace dress, with a slender figure, eyes like bright stars, and flowing ribbons. She was stunningly beautiful and unparalleled. It was Zhu Lingyun.

At this moment, a special light golden spiritual pattern appeared on her smooth forehead, which added a touch of holy and noble beauty to her. She had now reached the peak of the late Nascent Soul stage.

Her starry eyes were fixed on Ning Fa, filled with complex emotions. She opened her mouth as if she had a thousand words to say, but in the end she said softly, "Ning Fa, it's good that you're safe."

Beside her, the young woman, dressed in light blue armor, with a voluptuous figure, a cold and beautiful face, and a wild beauty, was already in tears.

With a whoosh, she appeared in front of Ning Fa, grabbed his arm tightly, and said with red eyes, "Master, you're finally back..."

The woman in blue armor was none other than Lan Dian, and at this moment she was radiating a powerful spiritual pressure from the Nascent Soul stage.

Although it is only in the early stage, it is much stronger than the ordinary early stage of Nascent Soul, and can be compared with the mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

Clearly, after absorbing the Qilin's true blood, Lan Dian not only advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, but also possessed extraordinary strength.

Seeing that all three were safe and sound, Ning Fa finally felt relieved.

After her initial excitement at reuniting with Ningfa subsided slightly, Le'er's face lit up with a bright smile again. Like a magpie, she chattered on and on, asking Ningfa all sorts of questions, such as what he had experienced over the past century.

Ning Fa also patted her head affectionately and answered her questions one by one.

The group walked into the valley. Ningfa stopped and looked ahead, where a small square had a half-mirror quietly floating in the air.

The mirror looked unremarkable except for its ancient appearance, but an indescribable spiritual energy emanated from it, causing Ning Fa's divine sense to feel a sense of oppression as soon as it touched it.

Ning Fa's expression turned solemn, knowing that this must be a part of that Xuan Tian Ling Bao—the Void Mirror.

Seemingly provoked by Ning Fa's probing, the seemingly calm half-mirror suddenly emitted a white light, releasing a powerful pressure that caused Ning Fa's expression to change drastically.

At this moment, Zhu Lingyun flew to his side, and the pale golden spiritual mark on her forehead shone brightly, establishing a special connection with the half of the mirror. Immediately, the mirror became quiet.

Ning Faxin relaxed slightly, realizing that what Luo Feixuan had said earlier was basically true.

At this moment, Le'er, who had been holding Ning Fa's hand tightly, suddenly smiled at Ning Fa and said, "Father, there is another mysterious friend in the valley that you would never expect."

As she spoke, Le'er pulled Ningfa toward a pavilion in the valley.

When Ning Fa entered the pavilion, he saw a handsome young man dressed in a light yellow robe sitting cross-legged, seemingly cultivating.

Upon seeing this person, Ning Fa was immediately taken aback.

Because this young man was none other than the Celestial Merchant of Heavenly Treasure.

Ning Fa originally thought that Tianbao Immortal Merchant would definitely not escape Yuan Zun's clutches, but he did not expect that not only did he not die, but he was also with Zhu Lingyun and the others.

Ning Fa was overjoyed and said, "Fellow Daoist Tianbao, you're still alive! That's wonderful!"

To Ning Fa's surprise, Tianbao Immortal Merchant ignored his words and continued to cultivate with his eyes closed.

Le'er tugged at Ningfa, who looked puzzled, and whispered, "Father, Uncle Tianbao's injuries haven't fully healed yet. He only wakes up briefly each year, so he can't hear you now."

But he should wake up in a few days. Let's leave now.

After they emerged from the attic, Ning Fa finally couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Why is Fellow Daoist Tianbao here?"

Le'er said proudly, "When we first came to Mitian Valley, it was Le'er who discovered Uncle Tianbao."

He was seriously injured and hiding somewhere in Mitian Valley. I rescued him and used a special innate divine ability that I had comprehended after advancing to the Nascent Soul stage to heal him, allowing him to slowly recover.

"Uncle Tianbao should be fully recovered in a while."

Ning Fa's eyes lit up with realization. It seemed that Tianbao Immortal Merchant had managed to escape Yuan Zun's pursuit and hide in Mitian Valley.

This made him very curious about the innate abilities that Le'er had comprehended after advancing to the Nascent Soul stage.

Just as he was about to ask, Luo Feixuan, standing to the side, said solemnly, "Brother Ning, you should now know that what I said is true, right? Can you now agree to take action?"

Ning Fa narrowed his eyes as he looked at her: "Fellow Daoist Luo, you might as well tell me your plan first. You don't expect me to fight against so many Nascent Soul cultivators by myself, do you?"

Hearing that Ning Fa had finally relented, Luo Feixuan was overjoyed: "With Brother Ning's help, things will be much easier."

We can create an opening to lure Shen Cizhou into making the first move.

To be honest, now that I know Shen Cizhou's plan, I can't just sit and wait to die. The method we came up with is to let Fellow Daoist Zhu break through to the Nascent Soul stage before the Seven Stars Alignment. At that time, not only will her Void God Crystal Core be greatly strengthened, but her connection with the Void Mirror will also be further deepened, naturally allowing her to exert even greater power.

While it's hard to say he's better than Shen Cizhou, he's certainly capable of holding his own, something Shen Cizhou probably already suspected.

Therefore, as long as the illusion that Fellow Daoist Zhu is about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage is created, he should be unable to resist making a move.

At that time, the sea monsters and demons on Xuan Tian Xie Ren's side will certainly not sit idly by.

"Once they're engaged in a fierce battle, Brother Ning and Fellow Daoist Tianbao can then make their move and settle the matter decisively. All they need to do is kill Shen Cizhou."

Ning Fa couldn't help but look at Zhu Lingyun, who nodded slightly and said softly:

"The power that divined Le'er's location was indeed very likely the work of the Immortal Clan, because Le'er often felt an instinctive throbbing."

I don't know if going there will be a blessing or a curse for Le'er, so I can only try my best to buy her time.

Upon hearing this, Le'er immediately grabbed Ning Fa and Zhu Lingyun's hands, on the verge of tears, clearly terrified of leaving her parents and returning to the Immortal Clan.

Ning Fa patted Le'er's hand and said to Luo Feixuan with a firm expression, "Alright, go ahead and start making arrangements. I will do my best."

He now has ample source points, so even if the opponent outnumbers him, he is not afraid at all.

……

Ten days later, a celestial phenomenon appeared in the sky above the valley: golden spiritual clouds gathered and shimmering light shone, which continued for several days without dissipating and showed a trend of growing stronger.

Five thousand miles northeast of this valley lies a majestic and towering mountain, thousands of feet high.

A half-mirror also floats above the mountaintop, emanating a majestic power that envelops most of the valley, centered on Mount Ling. This is another part of the Moon Mirror – the Moon Mirror.

Its scope of control is clearly much larger than that of the False Mirror.

Inside a main hall of Mount Ling, a handsome young cultivator dressed in a dark blue robe suddenly opened his eyes, a look of surprise and doubt flashing across his face:
"Could it be that Zhu Lingyun is preparing to advance to the Nascent Soul stage? This is much earlier than I originally expected."

After saying that, a cold smile appeared on his face.

"It seems they also know that waiting any longer will only lead to their deaths, so they let Zhu Lingyun risk breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage."

Although the chances are slim, I can't let them have their way. The time is almost right; there's no need to wait until the seven stars align.

Before he finished speaking, Shen Cizhou cast a special spell at a black bell-shaped vessel beside him, which emitted a melodious chime.

Next, Shen Cizhou arrived at another large hall nearby, and soon after, dozens of figures rushed over.

After a brief discussion, these people left one after another, most of them with expressions of excitement and anticipation on their faces.

Besides Shen Cizhou, two other people remained inside the hall.

One of them was tall and had a majestic face; he was none other than the Ancient Venerable.

However, the ancient venerable one, who always wore a confident smile and seemed to have everything under control, had lost his smile several months ago. Even now, he looked gloomy with bloodshot eyes.

The other person was tall and slender, wearing a silver mask that obscured his face, but his eyes were like ancient pools, their depths unfathomable. He was none other than Yuan Zun, the president of the Nine Immortals Society.

At this moment, he narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, you should know that Ning Fa has already advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, and his strength is extraordinary."

I fear that his strength has already surpassed mine, or that of the Ancient Venerable.

Therefore, we must be wary of whether he has infiltrated Mitian Valley and sided with Luo Feixuan and the others.

Upon hearing Ning Fa's name, the ancient venerable, who had been silent until then, suddenly turned blood red in the eyes, clenched his hands tightly, veins bulging, and a terrifying aura emanated from his body.

Months ago, his clone died tragically. The scene of countless ancient family members wailing in the blood lake and turning into a pile of withered bones before his death had appeared in his mind countless times.

At this moment, his hatred for Ningfa was so intense that even the rivers of the world could not wash it away.

Shen Cizhou smiled confidently and said, "Fellow Daoist Yuanzun, you don't need to worry about that."

The entrance barrier around Mitian Valley is directly connected to the Moon Mirror of the Yanyue Mirror.

If Ning Fa forces his way in, he will definitely not escape my notice.

Moreover, apart from this entrance, the rest of the area is filled with spatial rifts, making it absolutely difficult for Ning Fa to enter even after he has advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and become incredibly powerful.

Actually, I was also worried that Ning Fa would come looking for me sooner or later, which is another reason why I planned to act in advance, to avoid any unforeseen changes.

Yuan Zun nodded and said no more.

Shen Cizhou then looked at the silent Gu Zun and smiled slightly, saying, "I know that Fellow Daoist Gu has a blood feud with Ning Fa."

Rest assured, Fellow Daoist, once this matter is settled, I, Shen, will naturally fulfill my promise.

"At that time, Fellow Daoist Gu will be able to easily advance to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, and killing Ning Fa will be no difficult task at all."

A predatory glint flashed in the ancient venerable's eyes, as if he couldn't wait for that moment to arrive.

After Gu Zun and Yuan Zun left one after another, Shen Cizhou's smile faded, his eyes flashed, and he then went to another hidden hall.

Inside the hall, a man was meditating cross-legged. He had striking long black and white hair, and his body was surrounded by black and white lightning. His face was as handsome as if it had been carved by a knife. It was Yan Jingchen.

At this moment, he had already reached the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Upon seeing Shen Cizhou arrive, Yan Jingchen stopped his practice and stood up. As if he already knew Shen's purpose, he said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Shen, it seems you are here today to have a decisive battle. This is much earlier than originally planned."

Shen Cizhou laughed and said, "Dealing with smart people is so much easier."

Indeed, Shen intends to start the final battle ahead of schedule.

The outcome of this battle may very well depend on Fellow Daoist Yan.

After all, I haven't let Fellow Daoist Yan make a move in the previous battles. Now that you have just advanced to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, your strength should already surpass that of the Ancient Venerable and the Yuan Venerable. Once you make a move, I'm sure you can settle the matter with one blow.

"Rest assured, once it's all done, I, Shen, will definitely fulfill my promise and use the source blood in my possession to transform you into a member of my Divine Moon Clan. Then we can return to the Spirit Realm together."

Yan Jingchen listened, but his expression remained largely unchanged. He said calmly, "I'm afraid you said the same thing to Gu Zun and Yuan Zun, didn't you?"

Shen Cizhou shook his head: "No, although those two can be considered heroes, in my opinion, they are still far inferior to Fellow Daoist Yan."

Therefore, the last remaining source blood should naturally be given to Fellow Daoist Yan for use.

After all, only stronger clansmen can share the burden for me in the future.

Moreover, I, Shen, have already sworn a great oath to you, fellow Daoist, so you should trust me."

At this point, Shen Cizhou flipped his right hand, and water gathered in his palm, as if a miniature lake had appeared.

A white water mirror, no more than a foot long, floats in the lake. Its surface is covered with mysterious and profound patterns, exuding an ancient charm and faintly radiating a power that makes one's heart tremble.

Shen Cizhou said solemnly, "This is a projection of the Moon Mirror. There are only two such projections. Besides the one I have, I will entrust the other one to Fellow Daoist Yan. I hope Fellow Daoist Yan will not disappoint me."

Yan Jingchen looked at the projection, his eyes gleaming with a strange light, and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, I will definitely go all out when the time comes."

"Good, with Fellow Daoist Yan's words, I am relieved."

Shen Cizhou smiled, turned around and left.

Yan Jingchen put away the projection of the Moon Mirror, remaining on the ground expressionless, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if he was thinking about something.

Not long after, his fingertips trembled, and a thin black and white lightning thread, as fine as a cow's hair, tore through the void and disappeared.

A moment later, thousands of miles away from this sacred mountain, a slender black and white lightning bolt suddenly appeared in the void, flashing and transforming into the phantom of Yan Jingchen.

He bowed slightly towards the sky and said respectfully, "Senior Lu Ling, I have something important to tell you."

Not long after, a ripple appeared in the void in front of him, and a young man dressed in black, with faint eyebrows and an icy face suddenly appeared.

He showed no spiritual pressure whatsoever, yet Yan Jingchen, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, appeared as insignificant as a grain of rice compared to the bright moon before him.

Yan Jingchen said in a deep voice, "Senior Lu Ling, Shen Cizhou has decided to launch a full-scale attack in three days."

After Yan Jingchen finished explaining the details, the black-clad youth's eyes flashed, and a faint smile appeared on his lips: "You did a good job. I will reward you after the matter is accomplished."
