Chapter 442: Chapter 352: I am your ancestor! (4K)
An endless stream of nature's spiritual energy surged forth, all devoured by Lu Changsheng to form his Great Luo Golden Body.
The elders and disciples of Zhengsheng Sect were all startled by the heavenly phenomena, and they all looked towards the direction of Changqing Cave at Jingyun Peak, where they saw purple aura coming from the east and an ascent of profound clarity, as three thousand gods and demons stirred restlessly.
"A Heavenly Immortal has become a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal," someone remarked.
At the highest peak of Zhengsheng Sect's Great Luo Palace, an elder with an aura of Dao Bone and the countenance of a youthful, white-haired man placed his hands behind his back, gazing towards Changqing Cave. His eyes seemed to pierce through space, seeing Lu Changsheng, who was in the midst of his closed-door cultivation.
"Hmm?"
The youthful-faced, white-haired elder let out a sound of puzzlement.
Lu Changsheng's physique was extremely unique; even he could hardly discern the true extent of Lu Changsheng's cultivation.
It was not just the youthful-faced elder who noticed Lu Changsheng's breakthrough in Changqing Cave; the masters of the other eight main peaks also directed their gazes there unanimously.
Jingyun Peak's Daoist Yuxuan frowned for a moment, then vanished on the spot.
In Changqing Cave, Lu Qinglian, Ning Qianqian, Xiao Fan, and Dugu Aotian, several disciples, acted as protectors for Lu Changsheng. When Daoist Yuxuan appeared, they immediately locked their auras onto him.
The aura of Daoist Yuxuan was unfathomably deep.
However, he had no intention of intervening in Lu Changsheng's breakthrough.
The heavenly phenomena triggered by Lu Changsheng lasted for several days before it gradually subsided. The purple aura dissipated, the profound clarity returned within Lu Changsheng, and the illusions of the three thousand gods and demons collapsed.
When Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, his aura was much stronger than when he had fought with the Green Ox King.
The Great Luo Golden Body was now half complete, and the color of Lu Changsheng's blood had turned pale gold.
"Who's there?"
Lu Changsheng sensed a powerful presence waiting outside the cave and was secretly astonished.
Lu Changsheng had been cultivating in a low-key manner at Zhengsheng Sect for eight hundred years, unnoticed by anyone, but this breakthrough to a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal had caused such an extraordinary heavenly phenomenon that even the nine peak masters of Zhengsheng Sect, who were not to be trifled with, took notice of the activity in Changqing Cave.
A Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal's strength and status tower over all Heavenly and Earth Immortals.
If a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal takes just one more step, becoming a true Daluo Golden Immortal, they could sit on equal footing with the nine peak masters of Zhengsheng Sect.
Having an additional Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal is a pleasant development for Zhengsheng Sect.
Daoist Yuxuan barged into Changqing Cave and fixed his gaze on Lu Changsheng, causing him to feel somewhat uneasy.
"I am Yuxuan, from Jingyun Peak's Enlightenment Cave," the Daoist declared.
"So it's Daoist Yuxuan. May I ask if the elder has any guidance for me?"
Lu Changsheng had heard of this master in charge of Jingyun Peak.
This person was an exceptional practitioner of the Sword Dao, who almost slew the Golden Feather King of Jueyun Ridge—someone formidable indeed.
Lu Changsheng's progression to a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal had alerted this figure.
Daoist Yuxuan stared at Lu Changsheng for a long time before suddenly saying, "I am your ancestor!"
Wait, why did Daoist Yuxuan start off with a direct insult? Even as a Daluo Golden Immortal, he shouldn't bully people like this, right?
Lu Changsheng was slightly displeased. He was now a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal with three Holy Artifacts in his possession, enough to compete with an initial Daluo Golden Immortal. If someone else tyrannized him, Lu Changsheng would still retaliate despite his usual low profile.
Daoist Yuxuan then asked, "Have you ever practiced a Cultivation Technique called the 'Supreme Purity Limitless Technique'?"
Daoist Yuxuan knew about the Supreme Purity Limitless Technique?
Could it be that what he said earlier wasn't an insult but truly meant as such?
"Speak quickly, old man does not have the patience."
Daoist Yuxuan was anxious to confirm Lu Changsheng's background.
This Daoist Yuxuan was indeed as impetuous as the rumors said, a Daluo Golden Immortal with a much shorter temper than Qingyue Fairy of Jing Long Immortal Temple.
"Indeed, I have cultivated the 'Supreme Purity Limitless Technique'."
"Then are you a disciple from Mount Shu?"
"The Daoist also knows of Mount Shu?"
"Yes! I too ascended from Mount Shu!"
Daoist Yuxuan's response astonished Lu Changsheng.
Apart from Grandmaster Taixu, Lu Changsheng had finally encountered a second genius from Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm!
Before the emergence of Lu Changsheng, there were only a dozen or so prodigies from Mount Shu in the Mortal Realm who had ascended to the Immortal Realm; he did not expect to encounter one at Zhengsheng Sect.
"May I ask the Daoist's name in the Mortal Realm?"
"I am a direct disciple of Mount Shu's Immortal Green Lotus, the ninth Sect Leader from thirty thousand years ago, known then as Elder Qingyu. After ascending, I changed my name to Daoist Yuxuan."
"So it's Elder Qingyu," Lu Changsheng suddenly realized.
Lu Changsheng, being the twenty-eighth Sect Leader of Mount Shu, naturally had heard about the historically ascended geniuses of Mount Shu.
Daoist Taiqing, Grandmaster Tailin, Immortal Green Lotus... These were all Sect Leaders of Mount Shu who had ascended to the Immortal Realm.
Among the few Mount Shu prodigies who ascended to the Immortal Realm, several were elders, among whom Elder Qingyu was a disciple recruited by Immortal Green Lotus. Rumored to have a temper as fiery as hers, he had no interest in mundane affairs and focused solely on cultivation, thereby not taking over as the tenth Sect Leader of Mount Shu.
His aptitude and power were certainly not lacking for the role of Sect Leader.
Daoist Yuxuan inquired, "Which generation of disciple are you from Mount Shu?"
"The younger generation is the twenty-seventh disciple of Mount Shu, and the current twenty-eighth Sect Leader."
"Hahaha, excellent, the young will surpass the old," Daoist Yuxuan heartily exclaimed, patting Lu Changsheng's shoulder vigorously. Hearing that Lu Changsheng was the twenty-eighth Sect Leader of Mount Shu and had now ascended to the Immortal Realm, becoming a Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortal, Mount Shu could be considered to have a successor.
"How long have you cultivated? Has it been a hundred thousand years?"
Daoist Yuxuan was unaware of how many years had passed since the twenty-seventh generation of disciples in Mount Shu after his own ascension.
