Inside the room, clouds shifted and rain fell, the lithe and enchanting figures swayed and moaned, a scarlet fragrance permeating and spreading throughout the chamber.
Accompanying the frantic surge of boundless true energy, Yu Niang and Miao Miao collapsed in turn, the true energy within their bodies crashing like tidal waves, bursting forth like a breached dam.
Chen Changsheng's figure vanished into the void, instantly moving from the room to the courtyard.
He retrieved the Soaring Dragon Halberd from his storage ring, wielding the Desolate Heaven-Suppressing Halberd Technique with each move carrying an aura of primordial wildness.
This Soaring Dragon Halberd was a Golden Core stage magic weapon halberd that Chen Changsheng had snatched from Zhao Li. When wielded, it seemed as if a scarlet dragon coiled around it, emitting deafening roars.
Each cleave faintly left behind a deep purple rift in the void.
The crimson-blooded dragon entwined around him, coupled with the Undying True Phoenix Fire phenomenon, presented a scene of dragons and phoenixes singing in harmony, moving with the halberd.
Chen Changsheng's halberd wielding speed grew faster and faster, the halberd's might shaking heaven and earth. He immediately threw out over a dozen formation flags, activating the formation barrier within the courtyard.
No matter how overwhelming the power of his halberd, it would not affect anything outside the formation.
"Not satisfying enough. This Soaring Dragon Halberd is suitable for Zhao Li's Soaring Dragon Halberd Technique, not for my Desolate Heaven-Suppressing Halberd Technique. It also prevents my Divine Elephant Strength from erupting freely."
Thump!
The furnace magic weapon suddenly flew out, crashing to the ground with a deafening boom, causing tremors.
Chen Changsheng kicked out with his foot, sending the Soaring Dragon Halberd into the furnace.
Scorching flames instantly ignited, a raging inferno, burning the magic weapon halberd, bearing a familiar resemblance to refining a fiend.
He exchanged for dozens of materials in the Group Mall, throwing them into the furnace one by one.
Daoist technique imprints were successively injected, and the Soaring Dragon Halberd gradually refined into liquid, transforming into the shape Chen Changsheng desired.
The modified halberd became even heavier and larger, suited for the power eruption of body cultivators. When swept across, it could stir up immense gales.
A dark halberd gradually took shape, and the moment the furnace fire extinguished, it shot out and landed in Chen Changsheng's hand.
He weighed it a few times, quite satisfied with the feel of the new halberd.
"Its grade is still a Golden Core magic weapon, but the appearance and material are completely new. From today onwards, your name is Dragon-Elephant Heaven-Suppressing Halberd!"
As soon as Chen Changsheng finished speaking, the Dragon-Elephant Heaven-Suppressing Halberd emitted a slight tremor, seemingly quite pleased with the new name he had given it.
Whoosh!
With the halberd in hand, Divine Elephant Strength and Qi and blood erupted explosively.
Chen Changsheng put on three golden-red arm rings, once again wielding the halberd technique, stirring up gusts of wind, and vaguely visible were the phantom images of dragons and elephants, a savage dragon soaring into the sky, and a divine elephant galloping! It was as if they were ferocious beasts from ancient times, their momentum fierce, about to destroy everything in front of them.
After wielding it for a full half hour, the Dragon-Elephant Heaven-Suppressing Halberd was wielded with unrestrained joy.
Chen Changsheng exhaled a long breath, the resonating Qi and blood and true energy gradually calmed down, and his cultivation aura slowly decreased to the early stage of Foundation Establishment…
Now, the cultivators of the three major departments in Taiping City, as long as they were not group members, could no longer figure out his cultivation realm.
Some people believed that Chen Changsheng was hiding his cultivation because his lifespan was nearing its end, and he didn't want people to know when he would pass away.
Others believed that Chen Changsheng's cultivation was even more terrifying than imagined, possibly surpassing City Lord Yuan. Otherwise, how could one explain his lofty position in Taiping City?
Ding-a-ling~
The wind chimes in the backyard of Dao Treasure Pavilion rang, and Chen Changsheng turned his head to look.
He saw Zhi Shu, with an elegant temperament, standing respectfully at the door, cupping his fists and saying, "Director Chen, City Lord Yuan just notified us to expand the cleansing of demons and evils in the Fourth District."
"Yes, she has already notified me about this. Just execute the plan accordingly," Chen Changsheng said faintly, glancing at the private message in the group chat.
Zhi Shu spoke again: "Director Chen, our investigation has revealed that a large number of ghost infants have appeared in a certain area. Their Dao techniques are strange and profound, estimated to be the work of Golden Core stage ghosts. Therefore, we would like to request Director Li to lend a hand."
The Director Li he spoke of referred to Yu Niang, Li Linyu.
Having lived in Taiping City for so many years, the disciples of the three major departments all knew of Li Linyu's special nature. Although ghost cultivators were at the bottom of the cultivation system, they possessed a terrifying ability to efficiently crush Yin spirits and ghosts.
At this moment, Li Linyu, who was inside the house, heard the commotion outside. After dressing up, she gracefully pushed open the door and walked out.
"Does Young Master need me to go?" Li Linyu asked with a charming smile and a gentle tone.
Chen Changsheng pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you to go. Let Miao Miao go with you as well. This girl is about to suffocate. She keeps clamoring to go out and play all day. You can take her around for a stroll."
"Yay! Master is the best!" Miao Miao rushed out excitedly, hanging on Chen Changsheng's body without any restraint. Her delicate body was soft and fragrant, and her exquisite face rubbed affectionately against his chest.
"Be careful in everything when you're out. If you encounter an unavoidable crisis, activate the Ancient Immortal Token immediately," Chen Changsheng instructed.
"Young Master, rest assured, I will take good care of Miao Miao," Li Linyu said softly.
Miao Miao raised her head in confusion: "Master, let's go out and play together. What are you staying at home for?"
"This trip isn't for playing. You must put away your playful attitude. The Demon Suppression Division is currently short of manpower. I'll stay here to deal with unexpected situations. The ghost infant matter is enough for you to handle."
"Okay, goodbye Master, we'll be back early to sleep with you."
"Cough cough cough! Accompany me is fine, why are you talking about sleeping? No propriety!"
Miao Miao waved goodbye to Chen Changsheng.
After Li Linyu received the information jade slip from Zhi Shu, she transformed into a stream of light with Miao Miao and flew out, leaving a brilliant rainbow in the sky.
Watching the direction the two women left, Chen Changsheng stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Zhi Shu, are there any other important matters?"
Zhi Shu nodded cautiously: "Director Chen, we discovered a cave dwelling in the Fourth District where demons are gathering. The highest cultivation level of these demons is only the Golden Core stage, but their numbers are huge. I don't recommend you go alone."
"As long as there are no Nascent Soul stage demons, it's fine. I'll go there myself. You continue to help me investigate. Just hand over any Golden Core stage demons to me."
Chen Changsheng did not give up on comprehending the domain. This step had to be taken sooner or later.
Slaughtering could better allow him to sense the shortcomings in his Dao techniques. With his current cultivation, fighting against Golden Core stage cultivators was most suitable, and he could also cleanse the demons and evils of the Fourth District along the way.
A win-win situation!
Seeing that Chen Changsheng insisted on going, Zhi Shu did not try to persuade him further. He respectfully took out the information jade slip, which recorded the locations of all the demon cave dwellings.
Chen Changsheng put away the furnace and the Dragon-Elephant Heaven-Suppressing Halberd, took a step into the void, and headed towards the Fourth District of Taiping City.
