Ancestor Above Chapter 385

385 Lu Qing's clone

In the ice world, with the protection of the physical body, the nascent soul might be able to break free from the frozen state. A Yuanying without a physical body was equivalent to a body of pure energy, so it would be more seriously affected by the ice world.

The nascent soul, which could not escape, was cut into two by Lu Qing's ‘sky-cleaving' sword.

The nascent soul that was killed was completely frozen into gray ice and dissolved in the ice world.

The remaining two nascent soul realm cultivators of Wei were terrified when they saw this.

They looked at Lu Qing and realized that this unknown person, who had suddenly appeared, did not seem to have put in any effort at all. It was as if everything he had done was done casually and did not count for much.

How could they fight this?

They really had no confidence in winning against such an opponent.

They could sense that Lu Qing was only in the intermediate stage of the nascent soul realm and had not yet entered the advanced stage. However, even a peak original leveled cultivator wouldn't be able to reach this level.

They even suspected that Lu Qing had the ability to fight against experts at the materialization realm.

No matter what, Lu Qing was not someone they could deal with.

They did not hesitate any longer and immediately tried their best to escape from the ice world.

In order to escape, the two nascent soul realm cultivators of Wei had really used all their means. Lu Qing could even tell that the fire-elemental nascent soul realm cultivator seemed to have used some kind of blood escape technique. This would consume his own Foundation.

But even so, Lu Qing still had the ability to make them stay if he wanted to.

In the ice world, even if they were not frozen, their running speed was not fast enough. Lu Qing could have killed one of them before they escaped from the ice world. Whether it was a move from the White Saint Sword manual or some other move, it was very easy to kill an ordinary nascent soul cultivator in seconds. As for the other one who ran away, he was not worried that he would not be able to catch up with him since he had the void walk.

However, after some thought, Lu Qing decided not to kill him.

It wasn't that he was merciful, but how could old Lu have such a thing in his heart?

It was mainly from a utilitarian point of view that the big River Defense line had been broken. Without these three Yuanying realm cultivators, he could easily destroy the core of the great river formation, which was the high platform under his feet.

Once the great river formation was destroyed, with Grandmaster Weiyun in charge, the Army of the Yan Kingdom would be unstoppable as they crossed the great river and arrived at the south bank.

The overall situation had been decided. Whether these two Yuanying were killed or not would not have any impact on the outcome.

After that, Lu Qing thought about it. If the Yan Kingdom's Army continued to head south, would they continue to fight against the Wei Kingdom's Army?

Perhaps he would. But the most important thing was to resist the demonic uprising.

After receiving the news that the demonic uprising had become more and more serious, he had become very pessimistic about the situation in Wei.

He carefully recalled that in the entire cultivation world, it was common to see people who had joined the devil. Occasionally, there would be a large-scale demonic chaos. But all in all, the impact of the demonic uprising on the nine great celestial empires wasn't great. At the very least, in the past thousand years, there had never been a celestial nation that had been toppled by the demonic uprising.

It was for this reason that the Wei Kingdom didn't pay much attention to the demon uprising in the beginning.

To be honest, if Lu Qing himself did not know what had happened in the ancient times, did not know that the cultivation world had suffered countless losses because of the demons during the ancient times, when it had been the most prosperous time and Immortals had emerged one after another, he would not have paid much attention to this demonic chaos.

The demonic uprising, didn't it happen once in the Feiyun state? Didn't it only spread to half a County before it was resolved? How big could it be?

Even now, the Wei Kingdom was still paying great attention to this matter. After all, they had lost nearly two states during the demonic chaos. Even more than one nascent soul cultivator had died. Even a Dharma plane expert like Marquis Xuanwu, Zheng Yu, had returned in defeat.

However, Lu Qing still felt that they did not place enough importance on this matter.

It was obvious that if they had realized the terror of the demonic uprising, the Wei Army led by general Xia Cang would not have continued to fight with the Qi Kingdom on the eastern Battlefront.

That bit of national interest was not worth mentioning at all compared to the disaster that would really cause the destruction of the Wei Kingdom in the hinterlands.

Lu Qing was actually very annoyed by this.

If Xia Cang could return to defend, it should not be a problem for him to suppress the demonic uprising with Marquis Xuanwu and Zheng Yu's combined forces. However, she didn't want to. What else could he do?

If it was possible, Lu Qing could not wait for the demonic chaos to destroy the entire Wei Kingdom. At that time, Xu City would fall, and the Wei Kingdom would become a place where demons were dancing. He wanted to see what kind of expression Xia Cang would have.

Unfortunately, he could not do that.

If the entire Wei country and several large provinces had become the targets of the demonic cultivators, then they would have to deal with more than one person, Chen Man. The blood and souls of hundreds of millions of creatures might be able to feed several great demons at the Dharma plane.

Lu Qing would not be able to do anything if that happened. Not to mention him, even if the entire Yan Kingdom went all out, they would not be able to deal with this. It might be a super catastrophe that would require the entire cultivation world and the remaining eight great immortal empires to join forces in order to be able to resolve it more appropriately.

However, judging from the current situation in the cultivation world, there were so many Bullsh * t things happening among the nine nations. Why would the nine nations put aside their past grudges and unite together?

It wasn't impossible, but it was too difficult.

Of course, when everyone felt the pain and realized that the cultivation world would collapse if they did not unite, it would not be a big problem. In order to survive, they had to unite.

However, Lu Qing was afraid that it would be too late for them to form an alliance.

At the moment, the best thing to do was to suppress the demonic chaos before everything developed to that extent.

In just a short while, Lu Qing's mind was filled with many thoughts.

From this point of view, the two Wei cultivators who had escaped might not be the next enemies. Although they were cultivators from the enemy country, they were also from Wei country. Their country had been attacked by the demons. They should still have to fight against the demons in the future, right?

Two Yuanying stage cultivators could already play a very important role in the overall situation.

Letting them go was not a big problem.

……

With the three nascent soul realm cultivators gone, it became much easier for Lu Qing to destroy the core of the great river formation.

It was a pity that the big River formation was destroyed. After all, he had to make use of this River that was constantly flowing.

After this battle, no matter what the result was, the Yan Kingdom would not be able to give up the three counties North of the great river that they had already taken in. In the future, they would also build a Great River Defense line that belonged to the Yan Kingdom.

The Wei Kingdom's defense line on the great river, which had been in operation for hundreds of years, was actually very perfect. With three nascent soul cultivators, they could block Weiyun ancestor at the north of the river.

If the Yan Kingdom could inherit this line of defense, wouldn't it save him the trouble of creating another one?

Unfortunately, all of this was because the core of the defense line was on the south bank. Such a defense line on the great river was not of much significance to the Yan Kingdom, whose nest was in the North.

He had no choice but to rebuild it in the future.

During the process of destruction, Lu Qing kept the ice world in its unfurled state, completely enveloping the high platform.

Anyone below the nascent Soul Stage would be finished once they entered.

Lu Qing did not hide the power of his ice world at all. The cultivators from the Wei Kingdom outside should be able to clearly sense how dangerous this ice world was.

After all, one of the original three nascent soul realm cultivators from Wei had died, and two of them had escaped. What else could the others do?

Of course, even so, it couldn't stop some brainless people from rushing up to court death.

Since that was the case, Lu Qing did not intend to be polite to such a person.

He didn't need to spend extra effort to do anything. Just by maintaining the ice world, almost all the cultivators who came in would die. Even a golden core cultivator would be frozen into an ice sculpture if he didn't run away immediately after entering.

Lu Qing, who was in the ice world, released his Supreme true vitality and displayed the characteristics of emptiness. He slowly destroyed the high platform that controlled the entire defense line of the great river.

When he slowly released the Grand Supreme true essence to dispel the formation, he also did something else.

The corpse of the nascent soul cultivator in front of him could not be wasted.

That fellow's nascent soul had been split into two by Lu Qing's slash earlier. It was then frozen into an ice cube in the ice world and fused into it. However, a cultivator's nascent soul itself was a very useful thing. If it was refined into pure true essence, it would be a great supplement.

After all, even the Golden core could help people break through. This nascent soul, even if it's damaged, can help a cultivator enter the nascent Soul Stage after being refined, increasing the success rate of breaking through.

However, this item, together with the original infant stage corpse, would be of even greater use in Lu Qing's hands.

The ghost-faced God Chen Man could create doppelgangers, which was an ability derived from the ‘virtual spirit chart'. And now, Lu Qing, who had perfectly mastered this immemorial inheritance through the system, naturally also mastered this kind of ability.

Lu Qing recalled for a moment and quickly began to take action.

His cultivation wasn't at Chen man's level. Chen Man could create two nascent Soul Avatars, but he could only create one now.

In fact, by right, one could only control a nascent soul avatar after reaching the advanced or peak stage of the nascent Soul Stage by cultivating the void Spirit manual. Lu Qing was able to do this with his sixth-level nascent soul realm cultivation. In essence, he had relied on the Taishang Scripture. After fusing with the ethereal spirit chart, he naturally received the addition of the Taishang Scripture. The effects in all aspects would naturally be strengthened.

Even though he had already obtained a relatively complete inheritance from the ‘Void Spirit manual', this was the first time Lu Qing had personally created a clone. He was still very careful in the process.

In the end, he still managed to successfully create his first clone.

Lu Qing touched his chin and looked at the person who had stood up. The person's face was a little dull, but he looked exactly like him. He muttered to himself, ” “It's quite easy to make this, Yingying.”

In the ice world, he observed the clone that he had created and felt the difference between his clone and the ghost-faced God.

His doppelganger was obviously stronger than the ghost-faced God.

“Strong” was not reflected in its strength, but in its function.

The ghost-faced God's doppelgangers could be clearly identified. At the very least, when Lu Qing saw the other party's clone, he could see that its body was illusory and its soul was incomplete. From that, he could tell that this was not the original body of the ghost-faced God.

Furthermore, both Chen man's clones and his main body wore the same mask all year round. It could not be ruled out that this was their personal preference, but at the same time, it could also be that they wanted to hide their identity by covering their faces.

However, Lu Qing's clone was different from the clone that Chen Man had created.

The clone's face and appearance were the same as Lu Qing's main body. He did not need to wear a mask or use any transformation techniques to maintain the same identity.

The clone's body and soul were more complete after being supplemented by the Supreme true energy. The most direct manifestation of this was that Lu Qing's clone was not as weak as Chen man's clone.

In other words, the clone that Lu Qing had created, in a sense, was a true nascent soul realm cultivator, other than having the same thoughts as Lu Qing and being under his control.

“Eh? Doesn't that mean that I can walk around freely outside with this nascent soul clone?”

This was the first thought that came to Lu Qing's mind.

But then, he had another matter. What would his clone be considered as? Was it considered a part of his body or soul?

This was quite possible, but he was not too sure. He couldn't test it out now. After all, his main body was in a normal state and was temporarily resurrected. Of course, his clone could move freely. He just didn't know what would happen to the clone after the resurrection.

“We'll see then, Yingluo.”

Lu Qing could only think this way.

It was a happy thing to have a nascent soul avatar. No matter what, this was still a nascent Soul Stage cultivator.

The clone's original spiritual root was of the metal attribute. This guy must have been a cultivator with golden heaven spiritual roots when he was alive. The cultivation technique he cultivated was a Supreme-grade cultivation technique.

Lu Qing had obtained this clone, but he was unable to retrieve the clone's memories. Hence, he could not inherit the technique.

Chen man's doppelgangers were the same, so he used the doppelgangers ‘original stats and some cultivation techniques he had collected to create a new combat system. This was also the reason why the strength of his doppelgangers had declined even more.

After all, Chen man's main cultivation technique was the ‘Void Spirit chart'. He only dabbled in the other cultivation techniques because he wanted to control and strengthen his clone. Even transcendent-grade cultivation techniques were rare among the ones he found himself. After all, at this grade, they were the treasures of some large sects. Most of them were of the wondrous grade, which would further affect the strength of the avatar he controlled.

Lu Qing had the same question.

But wasn't Yingluo's situation a coincidence? The sacred white sword manual was a perfect fit for the Golden heaven spiritual root.

Lu Qing did not have the problem of not being able to study cultivation techniques well. When the Holy white sword manual was directly injected into his mind, his comprehension of it was immediately increased to the maximum.
