Chapter 3792 Half-Saint’s Peeping

! The Cangwu Immortal Emperor is Gone!

Knowing it was futile, he couldn’t possibly fight Gu Qingyang to the death.

Not only did the Cangwu Immortal Emperor leave, but countless cultivators from the vast Cangwu Mountain Range also departed.

There was no other way.

Even the Cangwu Immortal Emperor had bowed his head, so they could only accept it.

In response,

Gu Qingyang didn’t take any further action, letting the other cultivators leave.

He didn’t abhor killing, but there was no need for pointless killing.

Besides,

places like Dongming Immortal Prefecture were teeming with hidden powerhouses.

Some of these hidden powerhouses were simply living in the mortal world, and as long as they weren’t actively provoked, they wouldn’t bother with them.

But if he really engaged in a large-scale massacre, provoking such powerhouses to take action, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Therefore,

Gu Qingyang understood the key point, which is why he didn’t pursue them relentlessly.

Although he had the Immortal Extinction Array Diagram protecting him, and was even qualified to contend with a Half-Saint, there was still no need to take the risk.

Gu Qingyang had his own reasons for choosing the Cangwu Mountains.

Although it wasn’t a top-tier blessed land, its immortal energy was still considerable, far surpassing the former Divine Heaven Domain.

Furthermore, the Cangwu Mountains were large enough to be the most suitable foundation for a new sect.

Another point

was that the Cangwu Mountains were primarily inhabited by independent cultivators.

Compared to other sects, independent cultivators had weaker foundations, making suppression much easier.

For these reasons, Gu Qingyang ultimately chose the Cangwu Mountains as his target.

With the departure of the Cangwu Market, news of what had happened in the Cangwu Mountains spread. While this news attracted the attention of some forces, they were mostly those adjacent to the Cangwu Mountains.

For the entire Taiyuan Prefecture, the events in the Cangwu Mountains were like a drop of water falling into a lake, causing only a few ripples before quickly subsiding. Half

a month later,

in a celestial palace within the Cangwu Mountains, Gu Qingyang, who was meditating cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes. He then saw the space before him tremble, and a figure in purple robes slowly appeared.

“Master!”

“Hmm.”

Shen Changqing nodded slightly, his divine sense simultaneously covering the entire Cangwu Mountain Range.

“Six superior-grade immortal veins, this place is not bad!”

In just an instant, he had seen everything in the entire Cangwu Mountain Range thoroughly.

Beneath the mountain range,

six superior-grade immortal veins lay dormant like coiled dragons.

The vast mountain range was filled with a massive amount of immortal energy, some of which came from the outside world, and the rest came from the six superior-grade immortal veins.

More importantly,

while both were superior-grade immortal veins,

the six superior-grade immortal veins possessed by the Cangwu Mountain Range were far more extensive, far surpassing ordinary immortal veins of the same rank.

Compared to them,

the superior-grade immortal veins in the Xuantian Realm were utterly insignificant.

With such immortal veins, even if the Cangwu Mountain Range could not draw immortal energy from the outside world, the cultivation environment here would not be too bad.

It was clear that

Shen Changqing was quite satisfied with this place.

Gu Qingyang said, “Taiyuan Prefecture has many blessed lands and grotto-heavens. Although the Cangwu Mountains are not top-tier, they are still a superior choice.”

“You did well!”

Shen Changqing smiled calmly, then flicked his sleeve, and eight array flags flew out, transforming into streams of light that disappeared into the eight directions of the Cangwu Mountains, penetrating deep into the underground immortal veins.

Immediately afterward,

eight beams of immortal light shot into the sky, instantly covering the entire Cangwu Mountains.

In that instant,

the earth trembled.

Immortal energy surged.

From the outside, the Cangwu Mountains appeared to be shrouded in a Daoist aura of clouds and mist, making it difficult to truly see the interior of the mountains.

Other cultivators outside also changed their expressions slightly upon seeing this.

“A defensive array!”

“This array seems rather extraordinary, actually able to block my divine sense from probing—”

A Celestial Emperor looked serious, attempting to probe the array’s restrictions with his divine sense, only to find that the array’s Daoist aura was so profound and terrifying that it was impossible to shake it in the slightest.

However.

Just then, a terrifying power erupted from the Cangwu Mountains, annihilating all the probing divine senses.

“Pfft!”

A Celestial Emperor’s sea of consciousness trembled violently, spitting out blood. Looking towards the Cangwu Mountains again, his eyes were filled with horror.

Do not provoke!

This was the only thought in their minds.

The power that severed their divine senses was like the might of heaven, something no ordinary Celestial Emperor could possess.

Even some top-tier Celestial Emperors felt a chill run down their spines.

At this moment,

those cultivators who wanted to secretly spy on the Cangwu Mountains and investigate the so-called Seven Profound Dao Sect completely extinguished their thoughts.

What a joke!

A powerhouse of this level was very likely to have reached the Half-Saint realm.

To recklessly spy would surely invite death.

The power that just annihilated their divine senses was clearly just a warning.

After all, with the strength of such beings, no one had the confidence to withstand their attack.

However…

Just as this divine thought erupted, within a certain immortal city, an old man seemed to sense something. He looked towards the direction of the Cangwu Mountains, a glint of light flashing in his cloudy eyes, but it vanished in an instant.

“A half-saint? When did Taiyuan Prefecture gain another unfamiliar half-saint!”

the old man mused, then shook his head, dismissing the matter.

Just an unfamiliar half-saint; as long as he didn’t provoke him, he wouldn’t bother with him.

Then,

he turned his gaze back to the classroom before him, where many children sat upright, seemingly listening attentively.

A gentle smile appeared on the old man’s face.

“Alright, today we will discuss the Path of True Immortality!”

…

At the same time.

As Shen Changqing annihilated all the divine senses peering into the Cangwu Mountains, the Seven Profound Divine Tower trembled slightly. In an instant, this treasure absorbed six powerful auras.

The weakest of these auras was a Third Tribulation Half-Saint, while the strongest was a Ninth Tribulation Half-Saint.

This result

made Shen Changqing’s expression somewhat serious.

“What a Taiyuan Prefecture! It seems to be a place where hidden talents abound. The nine most powerful forces on the surface are only overseen by Immortal Emperors.

I didn’t expect so many Half-Saints to be lurking in the shadows.”

Although Shen Changqing already knew that the Dongming Immortal Prefecture had a strong foundation and many powerful figures living in seclusion, he couldn’t help but feel a little shocked when he actually saw this scene.

The Cangwu Mountains surrounding the small Taiyuan Prefecture had already attracted the attention of several Half-Saints.

If it were the entire Taiyuan Prefecture, one could imagine how many Half-Saints were lurking there.

Most importantly,

Half-Saints are not necessarily the strongest beings.

You must know…

Currently, the Seven Profound Divine Tower can only accept half-saints; those above half-saint level are difficult for it to accept.

Therefore,

Shen Changqing had no idea whether any other stronger beings had cast their gazes at him in the shadows.

This alone was enough to demonstrate the terrifying power of the Eastern Bright Immortal State. If

the Taiyuan Prefecture was already like this, the entire Star Luo Immortal Domain, and even the vast Eastern Bright Immortal State, was unimaginable.

However,

this wasn’t entirely a bad thing.

The abundance of reclusive powerhouses was a double-edged sword.

This also served as a significant deterrent to other forces.

With such a deterrent, other forces wouldn’t dare to act recklessly, and everything would have to adhere to the rules.

This

was completely different from the

Burial Immortal State, where rules had collapsed and there was no order whatsoever.

Conversely,

the Eastern Bright Immortal State emphasized rules and order.

The abundance of reclusive powerhouses naturally inspired fear.

Thinking of this,

Shen Changqing shook his head and suppressed the matter.

Seeing this, Gu Qingyang couldn’t help but ask, “May I ask, Master, what happened?”

“Nothing much, just that a few demigods were spying on us, but it’s not a big deal!”

Shen Changqing’s expression returned to calm.

Those few demigods only cast their gazes indistinctly, without truly venturing into the Cangwu Mountains to investigate, so the impact was minimal.

This also showed that these reclusive demigods didn’t want to easily invite too much trouble.

The reason they cast their gazes was simply because his act of annihilating other spying divine senses had attracted their attention.

However,

although Shen Changqing spoke casually, his words sent a shiver down Gu Qingyang’s spine.

A demigod!

If his master hadn’t mentioned it, he wouldn’t have noticed anything amiss.

That level of existence was far beyond what a newly promoted Immortal Emperor like himself could compare to, even with an innate immortal body.

At this moment,

Shen Changqing’s divine sense covered the entire Cangwu Mountains, the Great Sun Profound Yellow Array suppressing everything, completely separating the vast Cangwu Mountains from the outside world.

Although the Great Sun Profound Yellow Array wasn’t a half-saint level array, it was still at the level of a top-tier Immortal Emperor. Such an array was certainly sufficient as a protective array for the new sect. Immediately

afterward,

Shen Changqing took a step forward, arriving at another valley in the Cangwu Mountains. Then, with a thought, the array altar that had previously existed in the Bodhi Immortal Mansion instantly appeared there .

The next instant,

he tossed down an immortal stone and activated the array’s power.

Immortal light swirled, and Shen Changqing stepped into the array. A moment later, his figure reappeared from the array.

Soon after his appearance, other cultivators emerged from the array.

“Greetings, Sect Master!”

Yang Daoxu, without even observing his surroundings, immediately greeted Shen Changqing respectfully.

Shen Changqing nodded slightly, and Yang Daoxu naturally stepped aside.

At this time, cultivators continued to emerge from the array, while Yang Daoxu surveyed everything in the valley.

Within his field of vision, the valley before him wasn’t particularly large, but the immortal energy within it was unprecedentedly dense. Whether in the Divine Heaven Domain or the Xuan Heaven Realm beyond, the cultivation environment was worlds apart from this.

With just one breath, Yang Daoxu felt a massive surge of immortal energy rush towards him, every pore and acupoint on his body opening up, greedily absorbing everything.

This immortal energy was not only dense but also extremely pure, lacking the impurities of the Divine Heaven Domain’s immortal energy.

This change

naturally startled this Supreme Elder of the Xuan Heaven Dao Sect.

“The Four Ancient Immortal Continents truly live up to their reputation!”

This was the only thought in Yang Daoxu’s mind.
