Chapter 101: Utilizing an Immortal Artifact!
Chapter 101: Utilizing an Immortal Artifact!
Lu Changsheng said nothing more and struck out a palm towards the Holy Maiden of the Joyous Union Sect.
Lu Changsheng’s nameless rage surged forth, with only one desire in his heart: to annihilate all members of the Demon Sects!
“Your cultivation is off!”
Liu Yun’er quickly threw out a palm, attempting to block the enraged Lu Changsheng.
But even though they were both at the ninth level of the Dao Palace realm, Lu Changsheng’s True Qi was much more profound than Liu Yun’er’s, and upon clashing, she was sent retreating over a hundred steps.
Thud.
Liu Yun’er spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, her eyes filled with astonishment, “You’ve just entered the ninth level of the Dao Palace realm. How come your power is so deep?”
“Die!”
Lu Changsheng summoned the True Martial Sword, its mighty Sword Qi slashing towards Liu Yun’er.
The power of this strike had grown considerably compared to before.
Liu Yun’er hurriedly brought out a purple dagger to meet the onslaught of the True Martial Sword.
The purple dagger quivered violently under the overwhelming Sword Qi, barely holding out for a moment before being blown away. The remaining force of the True Martial Sword’s Sword Qi still existing struck Liu Yun’er.
Liu Yun’er was sent flying once more, sustaining serious injuries.
“lam the Holy Maiden of the Joyous Union Sect, one of the outstanding elders through the ages, yet to think I’d be defeated by you, a brat who has just stepped into the ninth level of the Dao Palace realm!”
Liu Yun’er found herself utterly crushed by Lu Changsheng and was no longer in the mood to mock him, instead thinking of how to preserve her own life.
Chanting an incantation, Liu Yun’er merged with the Hell Bell, becoming one with the artifact and retreated into it to avoid the next slash of Sword Qi.
“Lu Changsheng, I advise you to worry about your teammates instead.”
Hiding inside the artifact hesitantly, Liu Yun’er used a strategy to play on emotions, trying to divert Lu Changsheng’s focus.
Lu Changsheng glanced at the members of Mount Shu and the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion who were engaged in battle with the Calamity Serpent. Murong Shi, Xiao Meng’er, Zhao Wuyan, and others had reached their limits, while Elder Ku Mu had lost an arm in combat with the Calamity Serpent.
Lu Changsheng stopped pursuing Liu Yun’er and descended from the sky to lift Xia Ningxue, who lay on the ground.
Though Xia Ningxue’s breath was faint, her chest heaved slightly, and her body was gentle, she had lost her soul.
Lu Changsheng was not one to anger easily.
But Xia Ningxue had been hit by the Joyous Union Sect Holy Maiden’s artifact while protecting him, causing her soul to scatter.
After his rage subsided, Lu Changsheng tried to maintain calm as much as possible.
Xia Ningxue was not completely without a chance at life.
“Murong, help me take care of her. I’ll take over the fight against the Calamity Serpent.”
Lu Changsheng communicated with Murong Shi through a transmission.
Murong Shi took over Xia Ningxue, “What happened to her…?”
“She’s not dead yet. Once things here are taken care of, I will find a way to revive her.”
Lu Changsheng’s tone brooked no argument.
“Alright.”
Murong Shi didn’t know why, but she found herself deeply trusting Lu Changsheng.
With a thought, Lu Changsheng’s True Martial Sword flew out again, and Lu Changsheng, stepping onto the True Martial Sword, ascended into the sky, directly facing the Void Refinement Realm Calamity Serpent and the chief disciple of the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons, both at the ninth level of the Dao Palace realm.
This time the artifact he intended to use was not the True Martial Sword, so he used it directly for Sword Flight as his Flying Sword.
“What happened to Xia?”
Zeng Yeqiu, Xiao Meng’er, and the other Inquiry Immortal Pavilion Elders came to their senses and noticed the weak aura of Xia Ningxue, like that of a mortal.
“You all step back, I will deal with the Calamity Serpent.”
“Can you manage it? That beast is thick-skinned and tough-fleshed. Even Murong Shi from Mount Shu, using an eighth-grade Talisman, couldn’t slay it.”
Zeng Yeqiu, Xiao Meng’er, and the others couldn’t help but worry.
Lu Changsheng had stepped into the Dao Palace realm, his aura more profound than other cultivators of the same realm, but he was, after all, at the ninth level, facing an ancient demonic beast of the Void Refinement Realm.
“Have faith in Lu,” Elder Ku Mu oddly trusted Lu Changsheng.
He believed that Lu Changsheng had chosen to break through at this critical moment at any cost for a reason.
“Junior brother Lu has received a prophetic dream from our Ancestral Master of Mount Shu. He must have some method to slay the ancient demonic beast. Please believe in him,” Murong Shi conveyed to the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion members.
“Mount Shu Ancestral Master…”
Zeng Yeqiu, Xiao Meng’er, and others’ eyes lit up, reigniting hope.
The Ancestral Master of Mount Shu was a legendary figure from hundreds of thousands of years ago, having long ascended to the Immortal Realm.
If he was still alive, and had imparted a dream to Lu Changsheng, then Lu Changsheng’s future was boundless.
“Lu Changsheng, do you really think your cultivation is enough to deal with the Calamity Serpent? Today you will surely die. It’s a pity for Xia Ningxue, her soul was utterly crushed.”
Luo Feng scornfully taunted on behalf of the Joyous Union Sect.
Xia Ningxue’s soul had been crushed by the Immortal Artifact of the Holy Maiden of the Joyous Union Sect; losing his target, Luo Feng was almost driven to madness.
All he wanted now was to watch Lu Changsheng, the instigator of it all, be killed.
Lu Changsheng’s gaze, filled with anger, was as sharp as a knife, causing Luo Feng to break out in a cold sweat.
Their cultivation levels were as different as heaven and earth.
“Lu Changsheng, your aura is quite astonishing, on par with Li Changye, but you are still no match for this Calamity Serpent. It is only with the supreme secret technique of the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons that I am able to control this demon beast.”
The Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons’ Elder stood by the side of the Calamity Serpent, one hand caressing the serpent’s scales.
Lu Changsheng had broken through to the ninth layer of the Dao Palace realm, but everything was still within his grasp.
The Calamity Serpent was one of the most powerful demon beasts in the Immortal Ruins, and practitioners at the Dao Palace realm could not possibly be its adversary.
“To the Calamity Serpent, any Dao Palace realm cultivator is nothing more than food.”
“Don’t waste your energy, it’s just a futile struggle.”
“Do you really think you are the Son of Fortune who can turn the tide?”
Seeing Lu Changsheng face the ancient demon beast of the Void Refinement Realm alone, the elders of the Joyous Union Sect and the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons couldn’t help but sneer.
Even if a ninth-layer Dao Palace realm cultivator used rank-eight Talismans, they could not kill the Calamity Serpent.
Unless Lu Changsheng could bring out a rank-nine Talisman.
But how could a Dao Palace realm cultivator possess an item of the rank-nine Talisman’s level?
“Is Elder Lu trying to buy time, or…”
“Trust in Master, that serpent is definitely no match for Master.”
Following Lu Changsheng’s instructions, Chen Yao and Lin Qingzhi hid in a hollow tree, secretly watching the battle unfold.
Lin Qingzhi had unwavering faith in Lu Changsheng.
His master could do anything, moving heaven and earth with his abilities.
“Hmm.”
Chen Yao nodded firmly.
Having frequently traveled between Bimoon Peak and Qingyun Peak during this time, Lu Changsheng had bestowed many treasures upon her, and she saw him as a half-master.
If anything were to happen to Lu Changsheng, she must find a way to survive and avenge him, not letting any of the Demon Sects’ elders escape.
Chen Yao’s resolve was firm, and unknowingly, her cultivation made progress.
Chen Yao’s Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Physique was one of the superior constitutions.
Lu Changsheng ignored the Demon Sects’ elders’ mockery, took a deep breath, and operated the Taiqing Wuji Technique.
Having broken through to the ninth layer of the Dao Palace realm and recently receiving guidance from the Taiyuan real person, Lu Changsheng had fully comprehended the seventh layer of the Taiqing Wuji Technique.
“Rise!”
Propelled by True Qi, the Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron was summoned by Lu Changsheng, floating in the air. The black and white Qi soared to the sky. The Yin Yang Dual Qi manifested into the shadows of two black and white Flood Dragons, and the shadows, connected head to tail, formed a Taiji Diagram.
The Taiji Diagram spun, the colors of heaven and earth changed, the land within a hundred miles cracked open, and spider-web-like fissures rapidly spread in all directions, toppling countless trees.
“We need to leave this place.”
The hollow tree where Lin Qingzhi and Chen Yao were hiding was also affected by the pressure from the Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron, forcing them to quickly move.
“This is an… Immortal Artifact!”
The elders of the Joyous Union Sect and the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons were startled by the Immortal Qi, their scalps figuratively bursting.
The commotion caused by this artifact was far beyond what any innate artifacts could compare with.
No one expected that within the body of a Dao Palace realm elder, there would be an Immortal Artifact hidden!
Even the arrogant Calamity Serpent’s pupils tore open. It tensely coiled its body, raising its head in a defensive posture, clearly fearing even a strand of Immortal Qi from the Yin Yang Dragons Cauldron.
