Cultivation: From Servant to Revered Immortal

Chapter 689: Chapter 47: Cultivator’s Abandoned Mansion, True Monarch Celestial Star!

Zhou Xun’s face was as calm as water, hovering a few thousand feet away from the mist,

while Feng Chong wore a sheepish expression, aware that he had bungled his master’s affairs. If he had known, he would never have agreed to this.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally spoke up:

"Master, it’s my fault this time that led to Daoist Wang and another getting trapped in the mist,"

"Feng Chong is willing to go investigate and rescue the two Daoists, please grant me permission!" With that, he knelt on one knee, pleading to Zhou Xun for a mission.

Zhou Xun did not reply, at this moment he was concentrating his efforts, spreading out his Divine Sense, carefully probing the mist.

Yet, what was extremely eerie was that even with his Divine Sense, which could rival a Peak of Middle-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator, the moment it entered the mist, it was immediately lost in a white expanse.

This mist surprisingly had the ability to restrict Divine Sense.

Furthermore, he faintly sensed a trace of Void Power,

one must know, only when activating the Teleportation Array and when a Cultivator’s Nascent Soul performs Instant Teleportation Technique can some Void Power be induced,

in addition, a space vortex entering a Secret Realm would emit such Void Power,

for example, the entrance to the Celestial Profound Secret Realm in the Chaotic Land,

and the entrance to Thunder Prison in Quicksand Sea, are all like this.

But having seen Void Power contained within such mist, and what’s more, covering such a wide range, this was his first time.

Though he had thought of leaving, Wang Lingfeng was not just anyone, he was the disciple most likely to enter the Nascent Soul Stage under True Monarch Qianchuan,

at that time he would be the next City Lord of Sea Suppression Immortal City!

And when True Monarch Qianchuan left, he specifically instructed Zhou Xun to look after Wang Lingfeng, but now with such circumstances, how could he explain to True Monarch Qianchuan?

Zhou Xun decided to still find a way to try; if things truly became risky, he would not put himself in a perilous place.

After pondering for a moment, with a flip of his hand, he took out two items.

A bottle of Tier Three High-Grade Spirit Wine, which Wang Lingfeng presented knowing Zhou Xun loved wine,

and his Small Divination Compass.

Zhou Xun planned to use the Divination Technique to locate Wang Lingfeng’s position and then use a puppet to pave the way and bring him out.

Then, Zhou Xun chanted incantations under his breath, forming seals with his hands, and pointed them at the Spirit Wine,

immediately, an invisible aura was drawn out and merged into the Compass,

moments later, the Compass lit up and displayed a golden arrow pointing in the direction of the mist,

"Indeed, it works!"

Zhou Xun smiled faintly,

this also indicated that despite Wang Lingfeng being deeply trapped in the mist, his life was not in danger, which was quite a good outcome!

At least he still had a chance to rescue him.

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun gestured,

Spirit Light flew out and transformed into a monkey several feet in size,

it was a puppet Zhou Xun refined in his leisure time, with a rank as high as Tier Three Low-Grade, capable of battling an ordinary Early-Stage Core Formation Cultivator.

At this level of puppet, Zhou Xun had refined a Tier Three Demon Soul as its core, thus it had a certain level of independent action capability.

According to the direction indicated by the Compass, Zhou Xun issued an order to the monkey,

as the monkey’s eyes glimmered with light, showing a hint of intelligence, then with a flash of Spirit Light, it flipped and entered the mist before it,

rushing towards the direction where Wang Lingfeng was located,

while Zhou Xun relied on his connection with the puppet to slowly understand the situation within the mist.

However, the next moment,

a bizarre event occurred, the puppet seemed suddenly moved to a very distant place, and in the next moment, he lost contact with it.

Zhou Xun’s expression became increasingly serious,

behind him, the remaining eight Core Formation Cultivators dared not even breathe loudly.

As it turns out, Wang Lingfeng ended up like this, not without relation to them,

if it weren’t for them egging on, Wang Lingfeng wouldn’t have sought Feng Chong’s opinion, they wouldn’t have provoked that group of Flying Eagles, and Wang Lingfeng wouldn’t have been trapped here.

Zhou Xun mulled over other possible methods,

when suddenly, a change occurred,

the mist abruptly expanded over, shifting ten thousand feet in an instant, and Zhou Xun’s location was now covered by it.

Zhou Xun’s heart tightened as he saw the mist instantly envelop everyone and their sight was suddenly occupied by the vast white mist.

The eight Core Formation Cultivators behind him showed faces filled with terror, unintentionally drawing closer together.

Zhou Xun forcibly calmed himself, spreading out his Divine Sense again, yet again it was swallowed by the eerie mist like a stone sinking into the sea.

At this time, strange sounds echoed faintly from the mist, seemingly the low moan of some Demon Beast, or perhaps the tremors of the void.

Zhou Xun and the others assumed battle readiness, vigilantly observing their surroundings.

Feng Chong stood up, his face filled with regret and determination, "Master, it’s all my fault, let me be the scout, I must find Daoist Wang and the others."

Zhou Xun shook his head slightly, "Don’t be reckless; this mist is too peculiar, we must proceed cautiously."

The group carefully moved within the mist, each step filled with the danger of the unknown.

"Li Qun... Li Qun is missing!"

Suddenly, a panicked voice sounded, Zhou Xun immediately turned his head, only to see that out of what had originally been eight subordinates,

only seven remained,

one young man clad in white jade garments had a face full of panic,

"What happened?" Zhou Xun asked sternly.

"Just now... just now Li Qun was right in front of me... suddenly he vanished!"

"It was like... Instant Teleportation, but clearly he, like me, is only at Early-Stage Core Formation!" The young man stammered, his expression as if he might burst into tears.

"Instant Teleportation?"

"How does this sound so similar to the legendary Forbidden Array!" Combining this with the Void Power sensed earlier in this place,

Zhou Xun increasingly felt that he wasn’t mistaken.
