In my twilight years of cultivating, I became a Supreme Daoist of the Longevity Path-Chapter 988

Chapter 988: 395: Into the Demon’s Lair!

Single-handedly Controlling the Prince_3 Chapter 988: 395: Into the Demon’s Lair!

Single-handedly Controlling the Prince_3 Here, demons were more prevalent, the air reeking with an unpleasant fishy stench.

In some corners of the market, strong, hairy demons forcibly pulled human female cultivators, engaging in the most beastly acts in the open.

Passing cultivators either stopped to watch, or appeared indifferent, as if they were in a place devoid of any social order, behaving like beasts.

Pure human demon cultivators were actually of lower status here, rarely daring to walk or fly through the center of the pathway.

A few human-looking demon cultivators, who seemed grand, either sat on spirit boats or rode flying demons, were actually half-demon hybrids with exceptionally pure high-ranked demonic lineage, with eyes that had evolved into the prestigious nightmare double pupils; some had red scales on their chests, others had grown strong tails.

...

Chen Dengming and his group had infiltrated this area, finding it difficult to penetrate any deeper.

With their normal cultivator appearances, even using blindfolding techniques to change into the appearance of demons, without the demonic aura and habits, and not knowing the myriad rules here, they could easily be detected.

“We should stop here, I’ll infiltrate alone from here on.

You guys stay here and wait to back me up,” he instructed his companions who were hiding in different corners.

With their strength, they could just charge out and slaughter their way through.

No demon cultivator could stop them, not even if the Nightmare Kingdom’s ruler and the Holy Mother of Beiyin teamed up, could they hold them back.

But that approach would lose the element of surprise needed to assassinate the Nightmare Kingdom’s ruler and the Holy Mother of Beiyin.

Moreover, if those two managed to escape, they would not only fail to catch up, it would also risk attracting divine transformation enemies through the disturbance.

The best plan was for Chen Dengming to first control one or two higher-ranking demons, and under their guise, sneak everyone in to carry out the assassination.

“Sect Leader Chen, please be careful!”

“Old Chen, if things go south, retreat immediately, but then again, you are the Sect Leader of the Longevity Sect, you know this better than I do,” they advised him via divine thought.

Chen Dengming formed hand signs and used the Qi Escaping Skill, quickly turning into a beam of spiritual light and sneaked deeper inside.

The closer he got to the capital of the Nightmare Kingdom, the stronger the arrays set around became.

The capital of the Nightmare Kingdom was enclosed by towering walls linked to several floating islands equipped with powerful formation devices, resembling a fortress.

Waves of intense array power continuously washed out from inside the capital, sweeping across the surroundings like waves.

There were only two gateways in and out of the capital, serving as the paths inside.

Outside the two gateways lay a vast, unobstructed square and passage route.

Anyone entering the capital of the Nightmare Kingdom from here was completely exposed.

Chen Dengming was not surprised by this.

His own Longevity Sect was also enveloped by a Mountain Protection Array on a daily basis, accessible only with a disciple token that matched one’s own aura; any unauthorized intruders would immediately trigger the array and be exposed.

However, he had a well-thought-out plan; upon reaching the grand and splendid outskirts of the Nightmare Kingdom’s capital, he would no longer continue sneaking in but would instead blend into a nearby building’s pavilion to wait for the right opportunity.

Observing the area, it seemed that only demon cultivators with high-ranking demonic aura or a special token were allowed inside the capital.

Hidden here, it was easy for him to encounter demons and demon cultivators who could enter the capital, among them perhaps were high-ranking demon cultivators of the Nightmare Kingdom.

And to control a powerful demon cultivator with mental power, he needed to have more than a dozen breaths of direct, close contact with the target.

Then, the inner lamp of the targeted person’s spirit would appear in the Hall of Human Heart.

Using the power of the Hall of Human Heart, a Daoist artifact, he could then quietly and safely control a powerful demon cultivator.

Soon, Chen Dengming found an appropriate target.

A group of demon cultivators dressed in luxurious feathered robes surrounded a flying carriage that flew out of the capital, even the creatures pulling the carriage were Foundation Establishment demons with black shiny fur and strong aura.

Using Foundation Establishment demons as mounts to enter and exit the capital, this was clearly a high-ranking noble demon cultivator of the Nightmare Kingdom.

Chen Dengming carefully sensed and judged that the demon cultivator inside the carriage was of Golden Core strength; confronting him directly and controlling him would not be difficult.

He immediately formed hand signs, transformed into a beam of spiritual energy and stealthily followed.

…

“Your Highness Prince 32, this time Master Fang has prepared a total of eight captured enemy female cultivators for you, including three at the Foundation Establishment level.

They should certainly meet Your Highness’s satisfaction.”

In the air, outside of the flying carriage dragged by Foundation Establishment demons, an elderly man in a dark blue robe spoke with a flattering smile.

Inside the flying carriage, an indifferent voice came out, “Three?

That’s too few!

With my physique, even eight Foundation Establishment female cultivators would hardly be a challenge, as their bodies are far too frail.

Even with their Foundation Establishment strength, it won’t take long before I tear them apart!”

“Hehe, Your Highness is indeed the esteemed body of a Nightmare demon, undoubtedly powerful.

Those ordinary Foundation Establishment female cultivators, being favored by you, should consider it a blessing, and their deaths are not worth lamenting over!”

A demon guard in armor sneered.

Chen Dengming, who was silently passing through the air, felt a chill in his heart.

After a moment of thought, he quickly restored his form below and then changed his appearance and concealed his aura.

He flew up into the sky, heading straight for the flying carriage.

Actually, another more cautious approach would be to wait for the Prince to meet with Master Fang and confront him then.

At that time, with many people around, there might be more opportunities.

But there are also more uncertainties, such as who Master Fang is and what his strength is, which are unknown.

Secondly, whether the meeting place between the two parties has an Array set up, preventing infiltration, is also unknown.

It was only now, having distanced themselves significantly from the capital and with the air around them sparingly populated by demons and demon cultivators, that the best opportunity presented itself.

“Who is that!”

“How dare you!

Seeing His Highness traveling and not scurrying away!”

Seeing Chen Dengming suddenly burst forth from below and approach, a group of demon cultivators guarding the Prince instantly chastised him.

Chen Dengming let out a cold laugh, his speed increasing even as he made a bowing gesture.

“Your Highness, I am a trusted confidant of Master Fang.

Master Fang has specially tasked me to greet you here, for there is an important matter he wishes to remind you of!”

At these words, many of the scolding demon cultivators, including a young man lounging diagonally inside the flying carriage, were taken aback.

But the next moment, the group of demon cultivators realized something was off and were about to angrily launch an attack.

But they only felt an overwhelming pressure rising from their spirits as the opposite cultivator’s eyes glimmered with awe-inspiring silver light, radiating intense spiritual power that caused their hearts to shudder.

Instantly, all the demon cultivators and demons felt a horrific alarm, all sensing an intense soul power invading their minds as if a giant iron hand was gripping their throats, leaving them unable to speak.

Inside the flying carriage, Prince 32’s face also turned red in an instant as he sensed the intense threat to his spirit, causing his noble pupils to constrict.

At that moment, a red gem on his forehead and the symbol of nobility—a red scale between his eyebrows—flashed simultaneously with spiritual light, emitting a peculiar soul power that hindered Chen Dengming’s spiritual invasion.

With this buffer, another immense soul power seemed poised to burst from the young man’s glowing pupils.

“Bloodline’s soul protection!?”

Chen Dengming was suddenly startled, realizing something was wrong and slightly frowning, he quickly withdrew the spiritual pressure he was exerting on the Prince.

As he retracted his spirit, the red light within the young man’s pupils seemed to perceive the decrease in threat and began to fade.

Chen Dengming breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this bloodline’s soul protection was merely passive defense.

Indeed, as he expected, unless the threat reached a certain level, it wouldn’t trigger that power to erupt.

However, now that he had relaxed his spiritual invasion, Prince 32 was already quickly making his move…
