Chapter 3999: Report to the Cao Family (No More Today)

In a secluded manor in Wu Yang City, Wang Qingfeng sat in a stone pavilion while Wang Yunlong stood respectfully by his side.

Wang Yunlong had ascended to the Immortal Realm thousands of years ago and had been living on Qinglian Island ever since. He had never met Wang Changsheng. This time, he had accompanied Wang Ruyan to Wu Yang City, only to find that Wang Changsheng was not there.

"The cultivation method you practice was created by Father!" Wang Qingfeng said with a smile. "Excellent, our family has another body cultivation talent."

"Ancestor Qingfeng, may I meet the Old Ancestor?" Wang Yunlong asked with a face full of anticipation.

He had grown up hearing tales of Wang Changsheng's deeds and had always looked up to him. Now that he had ascended to the Immortal Realm, he wished to see Wang Changsheng in person.

"Father is not in Wu Yang City right now," Wang Qingfeng said. "When he returns, I will report to him."

"Thank you, Ancestor Qingfeng!" Wang Yunlong exclaimed, overjoyed.

Wang Qingfeng took out a red communication disk and channeled a spell into it. Wang Changsheng's voice rang out: "Qingfeng, I heard Yunlong is also in Wu Yang City. Bring him to Haoyang Hall!"

"Yes, Father."

Wang Qingfeng assented and put away the red communication disk. He then told Wang Yunlong, "You're very lucky. Father actually wants to see you personally. Come with me!"

He led Wang Yunlong to Haoyang Hall, where Wang Changsheng was seated in the main chair, smiling. After eliminating the six-colored Chaos Beast, they had safely escaped from the Hulang Mountain Range and returned to Haoyang City. Learning that Wang Yunlong was also there, Wang Changsheng decided to meet him.

Wang Yunlong possessed the Heavenly Ape Physique and cultivated the "Nine Revolutions Forging Spirit True Scripture," a method developed by Wang Changsheng. Although there were hundreds of True Immortal cultivators in the Wang family, Wang Yunlong was the only clan member with a spirit physique who also cultivated the "Nine Revolutions Forging Spirit True Scripture."

"Your grandson, Wang Yunlong, greets the Old Ancestor," Wang Yunlong said, bowing respectfully with an agitated expression.

"Your wife told me everything," Wang Changsheng said genially. "Indeed, you possess the Heavenly Ape Physique. The 'Heavenly Fiend Forging Spirit Immortal Scripture' is very suitable for your cultivation. Where is your innate spirit treasure? Hand it to me, and I will upgrade it into an innate immortal artifact for you."

The "Heavenly Fiend Forging Spirit Immortal Scripture" was a body cultivation method, perfectly suited for Wang Yunlong's cultivation. Wang Yunlong was stunned and took a moment to process it.

"Yunlong, hurry and express your gratitude!" Wang Qingfeng said with a chuckle. "Not everyone gets this opportunity. Among our clan members in the Immortal Realm, only Ruyan has received such treatment, and you are the first clan member to ascend from the lower realms to the Immortal Realm to receive this."

"Thank you, Old Ancestor!" Wang Yunlong expressed his gratitude, then opened his mouth and spat out a small, golden, shimmering axe with a crescent-shaped blade. Wang Changsheng gave a few instructions, then dismissed Wang Yunlong and Wang Qingfeng.

He walked into a secret chamber. With a flick of his sleeve, the Green Lotus Creation Cauldron flew out and landed on the ground. He then took out a six-colored crystal core, his eyes gleaming with fervor.

This was the crystal core of the mutated six-colored Chaos Beast, its value far greater than ordinary six-colored crystal cores.

He placed the crystal core inside the Green Lotus Creation Cauldron, closed the lid, and injected immortal essence power. Not long after, he opened the lid and obtained a pure six-colored crystal core.

"That wasn't even the core of the Hulang Mountain Range, yet there was a mutated six-colored Chaos Beast," Wang Changsheng murmured to himself. "This indicates that the true core likely harbors mutated seven-colored Chaos Beasts. I wonder if there are any Grand Unity Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts."

Based on his understanding of Chaos Beasts, mutated Chaos Beasts were usually the priests of Chaos Beast tribes. A mutated six-colored Chaos Beast blocking their path indicated the presence of mutated seven-colored Chaos Beasts.

They had cultivated the Law of Soul to the minor accomplishment stage, which was why they could quickly deal with the mutated six-colored Chaos Beast. Other Golden Immortal cultivators would not have found it so easy.

Lei Hong and the others must have suffered significant losses. As a lightning cultivator, Lei Hong should have been able to escape.

If there were any survivors, they would surely report this news to the Cao family in exchange for cultivation resources. Wang Changsheng took out a blue-glowing Immortal Transmission Mirror, channeled a spell into it, and soon, Cao Yuanxing's face appeared on its surface.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, I haven't seen you in a while," Cao Yuanxing said with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist Cao, I discovered a Mixed Essence Stone mine in the Hulang Mountain Range," Wang Changsheng said. "The exact reserves are unknown."

"A Mixed Essence Stone mine?" Cao Yuanxing's expression hardened. "Where is it located?"

Wang Changsheng truthfully informed him, knowing that even if he didn't report it, Lei Hong's group would likely do so.

"Understood, Fellow Daoist Wang," Cao Yuanxing said. "Don't spread this news. If we can successfully mine that Mixed Essence Stone vein, you will have performed a great service, and you will be amply rewarded."

"Fellow Daoist Cao, we encountered a mutated six-colored Chaos Beast," Wang Changsheng warned. "Fortunately, its target wasn't us, or we would have been in trouble. If your Cao family sends people to mine the Mixed Essence Stone, be careful."

"Very well, thank you for the warning," Cao Yuanxing expressed his thanks.

"Regarding this matter," Wang Changsheng said, "would you mind not revealing that I was the one who reported the news?"

"Of course!" Cao Yuanxing assented.

Putting away the Immortal Transmission Mirror, Wang Changsheng looked puzzled. He muttered to himself, "Lei Hong didn't report it? Could he have been killed by a Chaos Beast?"

If Lei Hong had reported it, Cao Yuanxing would certainly not have acted this way.

He put away the crystal core, took out crafting materials, and prepared to upgrade Wang Yunlong's innate spirit treasure into an innate immortal artifact.

Wang Ruyan was currently using a formation to open her sixth aperture. If successful, her strength would increase significantly.

At Spirit Beast Hall in Spirit Beast City, a slender young woman in a white dress sat in the main chair, holding a miniature Nascent Soul in her hand, her delicate brows tightly furrowed.

The miniature Nascent Soul looked exactly like Lei Hong. They had encountered two mutated six-colored Chaos Beasts; Lei Hong's physical body was destroyed, and he only managed to escape by using a secret technique to save his Nascent Soul. His innate spirit beast was also killed, leaving him severely weakened.

"Someone has already reported it to the Cao family," Bai Xin, a Mid-stage Golden Immortal, said, frowning as she spoke. "Senior Brother Lei, if you had returned a little earlier, we would have had the first-hand news."

"What about Madam Lin and the others?" the miniature Nascent Soul asked, puzzled. "Did they not report it?"

"I don't know," Bai Xin said, her voice heavy. "There's no news of them yet. They might have been killed, or perhaps they reported to the Cao family, and we just can't contact them right now."

If Lin Yuewu and the others perished, Spirit Beast Sect, the Lin family, Cangyun Palace, and Haoyue Alliance would suffer severe losses and would need to send additional Golden Immortal cultivators from the Tianchen Sea Region.

"Don't let me find those two Golden Immortals," Lei Hong cursed. "Otherwise, I'll extract their souls and refine their spirits!"

He had already memorized the aura of those two individuals. However, his current plight was entirely due to his insufficient strength, but he couldn't swallow his resentment, so he could only vent it on Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

If they had six mid-grade Immortal-Slaying Cannons and eight sets of mid-grade Chaos Armor, they could easily eliminate dozens of Golden Immortal-stage Chaos Beasts. The Cao family would have long since occupied the Hulang Mountain Range.

"Senior Brother Lei, let's talk about that after you recover your cultivation," Bai Xin sighed. "You were seriously injured this time and will find it difficult to recover your cultivation in a short period."

Lei Hong nodded and said, "First, help me get a new physical body! It's truly bad luck to have encountered two mutated six-colored Chaos Beasts. The Hulang Mountain Range must have mutated seven-colored Chaos Beasts. I'm worried that the Chaos Beasts might take this opportunity to attack the city. Immediately use the Immortal Transmission Formation to contact Senior Brother Yuan and have him send Golden Immortal cultivators here."

Bai Xin nodded and assented.
