Chen Baimao Will Take Over (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_1 Chapter 595: 261: The Ancestor’s Entrustment!
Chen Baimao Will Take Over (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_1 Longevity Sect.
Inside Longevity Hall, the atmosphere was serious.
Xing Huiguang, with a weary and solemn face, listened to the injunctions of the second ancestor of Longevity Sect, Jiang Jian, and the third ancestor Su Yanyan.
Hesitantly, he said:
“But, Second Martial Uncle, at the moment, we haven’t found Brother Chen, and if I go into seclusion to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage, within our sect, only Elder Ran can manage things.
But we still lack a character who can hold their own.
...
Right now, that character must be Brother Chen.”
Currently, besides Xing Huiguang, the Longevity Sect has eight major Golden Core cultivators.
Of those eight Golden Core cultivators, Elder Ran is already old and not good at fighting.
Qiu Feng, who is part of the younger generation and at the late-stage Golden Core, is the only one who can hold his own in combat.
The other Golden Core elders, all at mid-stage or early-stage Golden Core, are not enough to hold their own and there’s even a detected traitor who hasn’t been dealt with yet.
Meanwhile, Qiu Feng is already the sect leader of the Changchun Sect and has long left the Longevity Sect to start his own sect.
Naturally, the Longevity Sect also needs a figure who can hold their own to succeed him.
This successor is none other than Chen Dengming, currently known as Longevity Daozi, who appears too youthful and immature.
But in these extraordinary times, extraordinary measures need to be taken.
Chen Dengming was chosen as the crisis point, but since the siege of the border city by the Soul Devouring Ancestor eleven days ago, Chen Dengming has been missing.
The Second Ancestor of Longevity is a bona fide cultivation madman, but when he finishes his solitary cultivation, he becomes an incessant talker, seemingly trying to compensate for the lack of speech in his cultivation by talking incessantly.
Circling Xing Huiguang with rapid speech, he blabbered, “Oh my!
Little Xing, you’ve been the sect leader for so many years, yet at this point, you’re still somewhat hesitant?
What time do you think it is?
Our ancestor’s wound seems to be serious, and now the future of the Longevity Sect is on the shoulders of us old bones.
When the Nascent Soul Treaty was still in effect, you acted as a deterrence, always being on the front lines.
Now the Nascent Soul Treaty is just scrap paper, even a bit of a nuisance.
If you could break through to the Nascent Soul Stage at this time, it would add a bit more deterrence to our Sect.
As for Chen, even if we find him, we have other plans and responsibilities for him.
He won’t be left in the sect as you might think.
You should know that his temporary strength is not enough…”
Xing Huiguang was stunned, “Then…”
The third ancestor, Su Yanyan, timely intervened, cutting off the loquacious Second Ancestor and added, “During the time you go into seclusion for your Nascent Soul break through, I will be in charge of the Sect.
Elder Ran will assist me in managing things.”
On hearing this, Xing Huiguang could only agree.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
Seeing that the two ancestors had separate arrangements for Chen Dengming, it seemed they had already planned.
Both of these men were older than him and more experienced.
Listening to the wisdom of seniors is definitely worthwhile.
Just then, the signal drums sounded from the side hall.
Xing Huiguang looked surprised and delighted, saying there, “It’s Brother Chen.
Lately, only his little Message Formation has a two-way connection with this teleportation formation…”
…
In a corner of a riverbank by the Ming River.
Chen Dengming looked at the little Message Formation that was gradually lighting up, a smile instantly appeared on his face.
“Brother Xing!”
“Brother Chen, are you okay?
Why did it take so many days to reestablish contact?
Has the Soul Devouring Ancestor pursued you?”
“Ah, it’s a long story, it’s like this….Brother Xing, who from our Eastern Region’s sects is currently defending at the border city?”
“I didn’t expect it, Brother Chen, that you could survive the cunning Soul Devouring Ancestor’s pursuit.
It’s truly no small feat.
That’s right, the one currently defending the border city is one of the Nascent Soul seniors of our Eastern Region – Elder Kou of the Strange Object Sect…”
Upon hearing this, Chen Dengming and He Yingyu looked at each other, both letting out a sigh of relief.
As long as it’s not one of the Demon Cultivation elders from the Western Region, they should be fine.
He then talked with Xing Huiguang for a long time, discussing the current state of the Four Regions, the difficulties facing the Longevity Sect, and the plans of the two ancestors, and so on.
“The two ancestors have made further arrangements for me?”
Upon hearing that the two ancestors of his sect had entrusted him with other responsibilities, Chen Dengming was taken aback.
“Yes.”
Xing Huiguang said, “Brother, I’ve just revealed some situation to you.
Let me make things clearer for you now.
In fact, although the Ancestor was injured, luckily, Senior Qu had returned six days ago.
Indeed, Senior Qu is formidable.
Even when the Lord of Mosha Country and His Excellency joined forces, they didn’t gain much of an upper hand.
This is lucky that His Excellency had just broken through to Divine Transformation recently.
Although his combat power is formidable, Senior Qu is no pushover either.
Eventually, after their exchange of blows, the three of them vanished deep into the Spirit Thunder Layer.
Second Martial Uncle suspects they’ve fought their way out of this world.
But as a result, the pressure from the threat of the Divine Transformation level has reduced considerably.
The Demon Sect did not gain much advantage this time…”
Xing Huiguang paused, then continued, “Looking at the current situation, the Heavenly Demon seems to be poised to make a move.
It’s very likely that it will lead a group of demons and launch a major invasion into our Southeastern Two Realms at a time when Senior Qu is absent.
This is a sensitive time.
You can return, or withdraw from afar.
The task given by the two ancestors is actually just to make you flee far away, establish a new secondary stronghold for the Longevity Sect and at the same time, preserve the seeds…”
“Flee far away…”
Chen Dengming furrowed his brows in thought.
His original intention was to return to the Sect, stay on Longevity Peak to indulge in cultivation, and gradually break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.
Even if a Spirit Transformation Cultivator was really to come halfway, he would accept it.
After all, it’s better than hiding outside and not practicing properly, and living in fear all day.
But it seems that the elder ancestors of the sect have high hopes for him and have made new arrangements.
“It seems the Ancestor was severely injured after the battle with the Lord of Mosha Country.
Otherwise, the elder ancestors wouldn’t want to establish a new sect gate outside the Four Regions.
It allows some of the seeds to avoid the ever-increasing chaos in the Four Regions.”
