Chapter 1143: Chapter 1143: Opportunity for Rejuvenation

A strike from the Hollow Vacuum, coming from a great distance, nearly dispersed Su Chengyu’s Divine Sense.

He was certain that if he had faced such an attack before entering the stage of Nascent Soul, even if his physical body remained intact, his Divine Sense would have utterly scattered.

Even now, with the Primordial Spirit struggling to hold on within the Sea of Consciousness, Su Chengyu felt his consciousness waver, on the verge of fainting.

"Kid, don’t stop! If you stop now, you’re done for!"

The voice of the Heaven-Mending Stone, like a warning bell, rang out in Su Chengyu’s mind. With a burst of energy born from desperation, he began to practice the Realm of Selflessness doctrine.

Under the Realm of Selflessness, Su Chengyu’s Divine Sense finally stabilized with difficulty, but it was still like a flickering candle in the wind within the Sea of Consciousness, vulnerable to even slight injuries that would completely dissipate it.

You can’t stop!

Su Chengyu gritted his teeth, continuing to execute the Shadow Escape Technique in his hands, a supreme escape technique he had acquired from the Koka Clan, which was now his greatest reliance for escape.

Swiftly dodging through the underground, Su Chengyu was unaware of just how wide the range of a Peak Hollow Void expert’s aura could be, so he could only attempt to get as far from JinPing as possible.

Meanwhile, within the underground, the elderly man whose Spiritual Energy had not entirely dissipated remained with his eyes closed, sensing that his strike had failed yet showing no significant emotional disturbance.

Since Su Chengyu’s disturbances above ground had already affected his retreat, and considering the outcomes of this retreat, he was naturally unwilling to invest more into dealing with someone only at the Nascent Soul stage.

With a calm and steady heart, as much as possible he restrained his aura, running the final cycle of his retreat.

Outside, unable to detect Su Chengyu’s aura, He Mao Chang Ping, accompanied by Shen Wuyue, entered the underground warehouse, Shen Wuyue appearing visibly nervous on her first visit to this site.

Even she had rarely seen this lofty Family Head.

Upon reaching the outside of the secret chamber and observing the clearly scavenged surroundings, Shen Wuyue immediately understood that many items here had evidently been taken by Su Chengyu.

The expression on He Mao Chang Ping’s face was extremely ugly. Although this place was not the treasure storage of the He Mao Family, all the items stored there were personal belongings of the Family Head.

Now that someone had snuck in and stolen from them, He Mao Chang Ping, responsible for managing He Mao Family affairs, was clearly to be held most accountable.

If they were retrieved it would be good, but if they had indeed been taken by that person, He Mao Chang Ping felt a chill in his heart and dared not think further.

"Family Head, has that Xia Country scoundrel met his end?"

Although he knew it was still some time before the Family Head would finish his seclusion, He Mao Chang Ping couldn’t resist asking.

"Severely injured but not dead."

The voice of the old man inside the chamber was dull. Despite the distance of kilometers, the old man had accurately sensed the effect of his strike—Su Chengyu hadn’t been wrong; once his aura had locked onto him, the old man’s Divine Sense could encompass all of JinPing.

By now, however, he had noticed that Su Chengyu’s aura was about to leave JinPing.

"Where is that guy? I’ll capture him for the Family Head right away!"

"Capture him? You can’t even catch a trace of his escape technique’s aura. Even if I told you where he was, could you catch up to him?"

He Mao Chang Ping felt as if he had fallen into an ice pit, disbelievingly responded, "An escape technique? Is he of ninja origin?"

"Not necessarily, the escape technique does indeed seem like one from Dongying, but his other tactics are more likely from Xia Country."

"Could this guy also be from the Demon Slayer Department?"

After a brief moment of thought, He Mao Chang Ping ventured another guess.

"Having interacted with him for so long without finding out a thing! Chang Ping, you have greatly disappointed me!"

Although he was deliberately suppressing his emotions, seeing He Mao Chang Ping’s performance still caused some emotional fluctuation in this Peak of Hollow Void powerhouse.

He Mao Chang Ping immediately knelt before the secret chamber and said with a bow, "Family Head, please calm your anger. It is Chang Ping who is useless. I am willing to disembowel myself to apologize with my death!"

"Put away your little schemes. You know better than anyone that the He Mao family needs people right now. Even if you want to die, it should not be by your own hand."

He Mao Chang Ping breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but at that moment, he dared only kneel on the ground and say nothing more.

As the seconds and minutes passed, He Mao Ichiro’s last complete cycle of spiritual energy circulation finally finished, and the surrounding spiritual energy of nature converged mightily into He Mao Ichiro’s body.

In an instant, the abundant spiritual energy of nature in JinPing was completely drained by the old man before him. He Mao Chang Ping looked up in astonishment and saw the elder who, despite being over hundreds of years old, still appeared vigorous. He said,

"Family Head, have you already..."

He Mao Ichiro shook his head calmly, "Becoming an Earth Immortal is not so easy. However, I am now nearing perfection, just one step away from that ultimate threshold."

He Mao Chang Ping immediately showed a look of joy, "Congratulations, Family Head. The day of our He Mao family’s resurgence is just around the corner!"

He Mao Ichiro glanced at this descendant who was generations apart from himself and said nothing. Though the latter had also stepped into the Realm of Martial Emperor, his experience was still too lacking.

If that final step were so easy to take, then Dongying wouldn’t have only a few Earth Immortals.

However, there was still a chance...

Suddenly, He Mao Ichiro turned and looked towards the most inconspicuous corner, but there was nothing there at that moment.

This Peak of Hollow Void powerhouse instantly narrowed his pupils and swept away all the items within his line of sight with a wave of his hand, but still, he could not find that special seal!

"Hmm?"

He Mao Ichiro frowned, instantly sensing that something was amiss.

This warehouse was his place of closed-door cultivation, and the items placed outside were mostly things he looked down upon or could not use.

Among them was the Yin Yang Pendants that could only be activated by the bloodline of the Qiuqiu Fox Clan, and that Heavenly Son seal was one of them.

As part of an ancient aristocratic family of Dongying, He Mao Ichiro naturally knew what secrets were hidden within the Heavenly Son seal.

When he had first acquired it, he too had wanted to unravel its mysteries and find the treasure left by the True Dragon. However, after spending many years and finding no clues, He Mao Ichiro had casually placed it in the corner.

After all, aside from the secrets hidden on the seal, this seal alone was not considered a powerful Magic Artifact.

But why would the intruder, among the many Magic Artifacts available, set their sights precisely on this item?

He Mao Ichiro looked around, and indeed, many Magic Artifacts of greater value than the Heavenly Son seal had been left behind, while only some insignificant things were taken, so insignificant that he had not even left a mark on them.

Realizing something, He Mao Ichiro suddenly laughed out loud, making He Mao Chang Ping shudder at his side.

"Family Head, what has happened?"

"Nothing special, I merely think that ending my retreat early this time was very timely. The opportunity for the resurgence of our He Mao family might really be on its way."

In the eyes of He Mao Ichiro, he had already grasped the opportunity for ascension!
