Chapter 129

Lord of the Falling Cloud Sect, its been three months already, and theres still no sign of progress?

These constraints are quite troublesome. Im afraid I cant decipher them.

Is it possible to forcefully break them?

No, forcibly breaking them is not an option. These constraints are linked to the Sects protective formation and are supported by the spirit veins. Even Senior Bi Hai would find it challenging to break them forcefully.

A conversation echoed atop a tall mountain on the main peak of this ancient sects ruins.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om

Be cautious. The sea creatures are approaching again!

A large number of sea creatures were advancing. While they were most comfortable in the water, they could also leave the water to fight.

Under Li Sus leadership, many cultivators from the Northern Region had reached the main peak. Typically, the main peak was the central activity area of a sect, and the barriers here were particularly formidable.

These barriers were exceptionally tough.

Three months ago, he suddenly disappeared when Li Su was trying to decipher these restrictions.

It had been three months, and there was still no sign of Li Su.

Yes, thanks to Senior Li this time. Otherwise, exploring the areas protected by those barriers would have resulted in numerous casualties.

In the distance, the practitioners from the Northern Region were particularly concerned about Li Su. Especially the female cultivators, many of whom had been visibly distressed for the three months since Li Sus disappearance.

The sea creatures were still approaching, but the independent cultivators from the Northern Region didnt need to deal with them. The remaining sea creatures were too powerful for them to handle.

The time should be enough.

At this moment, on a massive square within the main peak of the sects ruins, Li Sus voice echoed. These three months had been a calculated disappearance on his part. His purpose was to advance his cultivation to the mid-Nascent Soul stage and provide a plausible explanation for the Northern Region cultivators.

Jumping from Nascent Soul Stage One to Nascent Soul Stage Four in one go was remarkable. This was the Nascent Soul stage, not the Foundation Establishment or Qi Refining stage. For those with slightly weaker spiritual roots, like ordinary sixth-grade spiritual roots, their remaining one or two thousand years of lifespan could be exhausted before reaching Nascent Soul Stage Four.

This raised the question, why did it take Li Su 4,000 years of cultivation to reach Nascent Soul Stage Four? It could be explained if the timeline were extended to a few hundred years or even several decades, but with just one or two years, it seemed too short. Li Su didnt want to attract unnecessary suspicion.

However, this time, his excuse was quite fitting. There were numerous legacy stone tablets on this square, and a person sat in front of each. But as soon as Li Su entered the square, all these people became ashes. Upon arriving at the square, Li Su gained insight into the events that had transpired within this sect through a jade slip.

The sea clan had stirred up a massive wave that swept the entire Northern Region. The sea clans attack was incredibly well-prepared and swift, catching the Northern Region off guard. Before the Northern Region could react, the ferocious wave had already arrived. The sects of the Northern Region hastily engaged in battle. The sects most powerful cultivators all joined the fight. However, in the end, only a few escaped with severe injuries.

After escaping, they planned to seal the sect with many restrictions, evacuate, and prevent the sea clan from obtaining their treasures. This explained why the advanced spiritual herbs in the herb garden had been uprooted, leaving behind numerous low-grade ones. Due to their hasty evacuation, they wanted to take the most valuable items with them, and the less valuable ones were left behind due to a lack of time.

However, they were still a step too late. Just as they finished setting up the restrictions, a large army of sea clan forces broke through. The people within the sect realized that escape was hopeless, so they activated a grand formation, sealing the sect completely to avoid detection by other sea clan forces. They only needed to deal with this invading sea clan army.
