Terror in the Nether Spring (Requesting monthly ticket)_1 Chapter 559: 248: Trapped!
Terror in the Nether Spring (Requesting monthly ticket)_1 Chen Dengming had no idea that the incarnation he had dispatched was attracting the attention of various hostile forces, even the North Spirit Sect’s Holy Mother Beiyin had already started executing her ‘Grace Plan’.
But such situations were already explained to him by Sect Leader Xing Huiguang before his incarnation left the sect, so it wasn’t unexpected even if they occurred.
Chen Dengming had already made psychological preparations in advance.
Even if his incarnation outside really encounters revenge from the Demon Cultivation, he would only lose some Heart Force and Dao Force.
Of course, he might also lose a low-tier third-grade Spirit Boat from within his Sect.
...
This needed to be compensated.
Thus, he indeed adhered to the principle of acting low-key, not allowing his incarnation to approach the border battle zone.
With the current strength of the half-finished incarnation Chen Baimao, if he went to the battle zone, he wouldn’t be able to accomplish much.
Killing some Foundation Establishment demon cultivators wouldn’t have much significance or value to Chen Dengming now.
Foundation Establishment demon cultivators were each sly and treacherous, they weren’t scarecrows in a paddy field, standing in place waiting for his incarnation to kill them.
As for killing Golden Core cultivators, even a peak False Core might be somewhat ‘too strong to be handled’ by his incarnation’s strength.
An incarnation was, after all, an incarnation, Chen Baimao was a manifestation of the Devouring Spirit Skill and a martial immortal, his Soul Imprint could only record this one Divine Skill and could not apply other Divine Skills nor spells.
Therefore, this incarnation had Dan Power comparable to Hua Zhenyu, the Senior Brother of the False Core stage in the Longevity Sect, but it didn’t have much fighting means nor Magic Treasures.
In terms of combat power, it just wasn’t suitable for Golden Core-level fights, and didn’t contribute much to Chen Dengming’s strength improvement.
Of course, if the incarnation self-destructed, the enormous force and Dao Force it contained would pose a threat to Golden Core cultivators.
However, compared to the loss of Heart Force and Dao Force, this threat was completely outweighed by the loss, and it wasn’t the main function of the incarnation either.
Therefore, Chen Dengming had so far defined the uses for all his incarnations; they could only serve in exploration, running errands, miscellaneous chores, assisting in cultivation, confusing the enemies with a false appearance, etc.
The functionality was indeed a lot more than the Golden Soldiers that were usually summoned by the “Casting Beans into Soldiers” spell.
<p>…
Two days later.
Chen Dengming directed his incarnation to excavate two Spirit Veins from Luo Mountain City.
Black Wind and Jiang Qiang, who had been prepared for a long time, then began to lead many visiting guests from the mountain city who were willing to go with them, as well as some loose cultivators to leave, officially starting the migration.
Tuozi also summoned a large number of people to help transport the Spirit Veins, showing Chen Dengming how the lower-class cultivators make a living in various fields.
This Tuozi actually called together nearly two hundred Qi cultivators to operate a unique Magic Artifact that was similar to a train of ox carts.
Each person was operating one artifact, and two hundred artifacts combined looked like a train of cars surging along the ground and moving at a not so fast speed, they also had to detour when encountering some difficult terrains.
But this was the power and value showing through when a group of low-level cultivators came together.
If you ask an ordinary False Core Great Cultivator, he wouldn’t be able to single-handedly transport two Spirit Veins thousands of miles away.
“The power of the laboring people at the bottom is also great.”
Chen Dengming sat in his cave and looked at the scene thousands of miles away.
Seeing a large army from Luo Mountain City migrating, leaving a trail of dust behind, he couldn’t help but sigh.
He had a thought.
The incarnation immediately went to Luoshan to pay his last respect to the tomb of Luo Bing, his former friend and foe, sprinkled a bottle of top-notch yellow wine, and raised a glass to honor past grievances, before leaving.
After the incarnation dug out the two Spirit Veins, he lost about thirty percent of the Dan Power and Spiritual Energy poured into him, in addition to the normal power consumption to ‘maintain existence’, hence, only sixty percent of his power remained.
After using the Devouring Spirit Skill several times to swiftly devour Spiritual Energy and recover, the Heart Force in the incarnation’s body was also reduced by thirty percent as a result.
According to Chen Dengming’s estimation, this Baimao incarnation could probably exist for around eight days under normal circumstances.
If a battle occurred and Spiritual Energy was consumed, the remaining time would drastically decrease.
But compared to other False Core initial stage incarnations, the advantage of the half-finished Baimao was that he had a larger capacity and ample Dan Power, his individual strength was much stronger, closer to his real self, creating a better illusion.
Under Chen Dengming’s direction.
Baimao piloted the Spirit Boat swiftly towards Yin Ghost Mountain, preparing to explore the Nether Spring, and once it was achieved, the purpose of this incarnation’s trip would be accomplished.
However, about halfway through the journey, a strong sense of apprehension was sensed by Chen Dengming through the incarnation.
“Hmm?”
Chen Dengming abruptly opened his eyes in the cave, a clear picture immediately appeared in his mind, feeling as if he was there.
A strong Spiritual Might pressure suddenly appeared from behind the incarnation, chasing at high speed.
“A Golden Core demon cultivator?
The sense is like a mid-stage Golden Core, coming to hunt me alone?”
Chen Dengming was slightly surprised, but he still instructed Baimao to flee.
With Baimao’s strength, once he was caught up, he would be killed the moment they meet.
Death is death, it’s just an incarnation, but he doesn’t want to lose a Sect’s Spirit Boat unnecessarily.
If the incarnation could buy more time, perhaps some experts in the Southern Region would be alarmed and come over, leaving this suddenly appeared Golden Core demon cultivator behind.

By then, he would have made a contribution to the cause, and it would be worth losing a Spirit Boat.
Chen Dengming simultaneously took out a Jade Talisman for Message Transmission and immediately sent a message to Sect Leader Brother Xing Huiguang.
“Big Brother!
Near Luo Family Mountain in the southern borderland, a mid-stage Golden Core demon cultivator suddenly appeared and is pursuing my incarnation.
Please send a message through the Message Formation to the Golden Core cultivators in the Southern Region and prompt them to launch a rescue and siege.”
