Chapter 303: Chapter 245: Exposed—Battle with the Celestial Concealment Divine Master

Using Mo Li’s identity, Lin Chang’sheng easily slipped into the Beimu Imperial City.

And before long, he quickly found the Cloud Concealment Tower where the Celestial Concealment Divine Master resided.

This Cloud Concealment Tower stood seven stories high, towering above its surroundings.

At the tower’s entrance stood two enormous statues, each nearly thirty feet tall.

They weren’t lion statues, but bizarre creatures with snake heads, human bodies, and turtle shells—utterly outlandish in appearance.

Lin Chang’sheng couldn’t discern their origins, just thought they looked strange.

"Stop right there!"

Just as Lin Chang’sheng approached the door, two guards immediately blocked his path.

He had already prepared for this, and swiftly took out a token with the character ’Celestial’ carved on it from Mo Li’s storage bag.

The two guards inspected it, then allowed him to pass.

This token was none other than the Celestial Order, issued by the Celestial Concealment Divine Master.

There were only ninety-nine of these in existence.

Only those who had reached the Golden Core and were wholly loyal to Celestial Concealment could obtain one.

Once inside the Cloud Concealment Tower, Lin Chang’sheng realized it was more than just a place to live.

The first through third floors served as alchemy workshops, with numerous alchemists constantly refining pills—a steady stream of people coming and going.

The fourth and fifth floors were actually stacked with various array formation techniques, with many immersed in their study.

Gazing at the dazzling array of arrays, Lin Chang’sheng’s eyes lit up.

"If I can hone all these formations to perfection and merge them into the Array of Myriad Gods Slaying Immortals, the power of that array would be ramped up yet again!"

Lin Chang’sheng couldn’t help but think to himself.

Though the Array of Myriad Gods Slaying Immortals was formidable as it was—anyone below the Divinity Transformation Stage who entered would be doomed—

If he could incorporate even more grand arrays, even Divinity Transformation powerhouses would struggle to escape.

But his mission today wasn’t to study formations, but to kill Celestial Concealment and rescue Yu Wenjing.

"Divine Master, Mo Li has something to report!"

Lin Chang’sheng arrived at the door of Celestial Concealment’s quarters and called out.

"Come in!"

Celestial Concealment’s voice rang out, and Lin Chang’sheng pushed the door open and strode in.

Inside were three men; the highest seat occupied by the white-haired, bearded Celestial Concealment Divine Master, with two more below—a young man in his twenties, and a middle-aged man in a golden crown and golden robes, who radiated importance.

"Divine Master, I’ll be counting on you for this. When it’s done, I’ll fulfill my promise!"

The middle-aged man, seeing Lin Chang’sheng enter, dropped this line and then departed.

"Was that the Beimu Immortal Emperor? But he was sitting below him? Looks like Celestial Concealment outranks him!"

Lin Chang’sheng was a bit surprised.

But according to what the Saintess Bai People had confided, the Beimu Immortal Race revered strength above all.

Now that Celestial Concealment had advanced to Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, even the Beimu Immortal Emperor had to be deferential—so that added up.

And Lin Chang’sheng’s guess was right.

The man in the golden robe was indeed the Beimu Immortal Emperor, and the young man was Celestial Concealment’s third grandson, Suren.

The Beimu Immortal Emperor wanted Celestial Concealment to lead his armies to seize the Southern Realm—if he succeeded, Suren would inherit the throne.

Of course, Celestial Concealment Divine Master readily agreed.

As he saw it, the Southern Realm was practically his for the taking.

Little did he know, a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator had arisen in the Southern Realm too.

"Suren, step out for now."

Celestial Concealment, seeing Mo Li enter, kept silent—whatever was going on was clearly confidential, so he dismissed his grandson.

Suren was obedient, and quietly left.

Even though the Beimu Immortal Emperor intended for Suren to be his successor, Suren understood he’d only be a puppet emperor.

Real control would always rest with his grandfather, Celestial Concealment.

So he wouldn’t dare harbor the least resentment.

"Speak. What’s the matter?" 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Celestial Concealment asked.

"Divine Master, I discovered Lin Chang’sheng in Celestial Pool City—he’s already broken through to Nascent Soul! He absolutely must not be allowed to live!"

Mo Li feigned urgency, hoping to trick Celestial Concealment into going to Celestial Pool City, where the grand array could easily kill him.

"Oh?"

This caught Celestial Concealment off guard—not that Lin Chang’sheng would show up, but that he’d already advanced to Nascent Soul.

To think Lin Chang’sheng, only in his early twenties, had broken through to a realm that usually took centuries?

Clearly, this kid’s talent for cultivation was vastly superior to his own.

"Then he’s just asking for death! Take me to kill him myself!"

Celestial Concealment grunted dismissively.

He had already ascended to Nascent Soul Great Cultivator—forget early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, even those at the middle stage were nothing to him.

"Yes, sir!"

Seeing Celestial Concealment fall for it, Lin Chang’sheng couldn’t help the faintest touch of a cold smile curl at the corner of his mouth.

Then he led Celestial Concealment out of Cloud Concealment Tower, heading directly toward Celestial Pool City.

Just as Lin Chang’sheng thought everything was going smoothly—

Hum—

—he hadn’t gotten far from the Cloud Concealment Tower when an overpowering palm strike came crashing at him from behind.

"Shit!"

Lin Chang’sheng’s heart skipped a beat—he instantly used The Ends of the Earth technique to dodge sideways.

BOOM—

The violent palm strike smashed into a distant statue, pulverizing it in a single blow.

"Divine Master, you—?"

Lin Chang’sheng was baffled—had he given himself away somewhere?

"Lin Chang’sheng, drop the act. You think I don’t know it’s you? Hahaha—"

Celestial Concealment Divine Master let out a booming laugh. He’d already realized Mo Li was an imposter—Mo Li never addressed him as ’Divine Master’.

And inside Lin Chang’sheng’s body, he distinctly felt someone was suppressing their cultivation.

If he were still only at Nascent Soul middle stage, maybe he couldn’t tell, but as a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, such petty tricks were useless on him.

Let alone Lin Chang’sheng, who was a master of disguise to begin with.

Back in the day, so many people had hunted him and he’d vanished without a trace.

Celestial Concealment had heard all about it—so he’d rather kill an innocent than let the real Lin Chang’sheng escape.

With his cover blown, Lin Chang’sheng dropped the charade. Originally, he’d hoped to lure Celestial Concealment to Celestial Pool City and use the grand array to finish him off easily.

Since that wouldn’t work, killing him here wasn’t impossible, either.

Right in front of Celestial Concealment, Lin Chang’sheng used the Bone Transformation Technique to return to his true appearance.

"Since you’ve seen through me, no more games. Tell me—where is Yu Wenjing?"

Lin Chang’sheng demanded bluntly.

If anything happened to Yu Wenjing, he would slaughter the entire Beimu Imperial City to bury her.

"You’d better worry about yourself first! If you’re still alive after three moves, I’ll tell you!"

Celestial Concealment sneered with arrogance.

As far as he was concerned, Lin Chang’sheng was already a dead man—the idea of rescuing Yu Wenjing was pure delusion.

"Then let me experience the might of a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator!"

Lin Chang’sheng stopped suppressing his power and burst out with his full Middle Stage Nascent Soul cultivation.

Waves of violent spiritual energy surged forth, blowing the onrushing Imperial City Guards away in all directions.

The weaker ones were outright killed, blood gushing from their seven orifices.

"Middle Stage Nascent Soul cultivation?"

Feeling Lin Chang’sheng’s true cultivation, Celestial Concealment’s brows furrowed.
