“Taiyuan, there seems to be something off with your disciple…” Alliance Leader Master Chen had also assumed it would be a one-sided, suspenseless contest, but the moment Lu Changsheng drew his sword, his momentum began to rise, and gradually, Master Chen became moved.
Lu Changsheng was not as simple as he had imagined!
“Hmm?”
The Abbot of Immeasurable Temple, Master Wuxiang, Refinement Sect’s Master Lu, Hidden Dragon Temple’s Yu Xuanji, and Inquiry Immortal Pavilion’s Fairy Su, all of their expressions underwent subtle changes.
Lu Changsheng’s aura was continuously climbing!
“Dao Palace Realm second layer!”
“Dao Palace Realm third layer!”
“Dao Palace Realm fourth layer!”
Master Chen was thoroughly moved, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation level kept rising until it reached the fourth layer of the Dao Palace Realm, and then it abruptly stopped!
“What is going on? Lu’s aura is rising so rapidly?
Elder Ku Mu, sensing the change in Lu Changsheng’s aura, was so astonished
that he stood up.
Five years ago, when Elder Ku Mu led a team on a mission to Huang State, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation was only at the first layer of the Dao Palace Realm.
Had his cultivation progressed so rapidly in just five years?
“Could it be that he’s an extraordinary genius like the Holy Maiden, a monstrous prodigy?”
A shock ran through Elder Ku Mu’s heart; could it be that an era might witness the rise of two such unparalleled geniuses?
“Impossible, his cultivation was even lower than mine five years ago!
Elder Luo Feng was even more shocked.
in just five years, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation had surpassed his own and left him far behind!
“His cultivation level is now the same as the Holy Maiden’s!”
“This is bad, Mount Shu has kept a card up their sleeve!
“Now, the outcome is uncertain.”
The previously confident elders of Inquiry Immortal Pavilion saw their smiles gradually solidifying.
With the same level of cultivation at the fourth layer of the Dao Palace Realm, the outcome was unpredictable.
In contrast to the gradually silencing members of Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, the elders of Mount Shu were unexpectedly delighted.
“So, Lu has been hiding his true cultivation all along.”
“Lu has secluded himself for a century, it seems he had already reached the Dao
Palace Realm.”
“Lu truly keeps a low profile. To be at such a realm and yet to have never spoken up, if it weren’t for this duel, he might have continued to conceal it. If I had such cultivation, I would have wished for everyone in the streets to know.”
“That is where you differ from Lu.”
“Lu has been cultivating for over two hundred and fifty years, almost catching up with me who has cultivated for three hundred and twenty years. It is truly shameful.”
“This time, our Mount Shu may not necessarily lose!
“Hmph, I’ve said it before, my master won’t lose.”
“Little fellow, you win this time.”
The people of Mount Shu became excited, with Lu Changsheng showing the cultivation of the fourth layer of the Dao Palace Realm, they saw hope for
Mount Shu.
“Taiyuan, you’ve played me.”
The face of the Pavilion Master of Inquiry Immortal Pavilion did not look good.
She had originally thought she held a winning hand, capable of embarrassing Taiyuan, but Taiyuan’s little disciple had hidden his true cultivation level until the most critical moment, revealing his true power only then, leaving the Pavilion Master of Inquiry Immortal Pavilion unable to predict further developments.
“This disciple of mine has cultivated so swiftly, it truly is beyond my
expectations.”
Not even the Fairy Pavilion Master, let alone Daoist Master Taiyuan, could hide their surprise at the level of cultivation Lu Changsheng demonstrated.
They had no idea when their disciple had reached the fourth layer of the Dao Palace realm.
On the Martial Arts Platform, Xia Ningxue was slightly surprised by Lu Changsheng’s cultivation level, but she quickly regained her composure, “I knew it, you’re not that simple. However, I will not lose. ‘What is ever so private in heaven, use it for the good of all. With life controlled by breath…'”
Xia Ningxue silently recited the mnemonic verse of the Supreme Forgetting Love Art, and a cold aura spread rapidly, with the temperature plummeting as the entire Martial Arts Platform swiftly became encased in ice.
“Her Supreme Forgetting Love Art has actually reached the fifth level, this woman is terrifying.”
Alliance Leader Master Chen from the Martial Alliance was moved once again. Among the direct disciples of the Fairy Pavilion Master, only Xiao Meng’er, the second disciple, had cultivated to the sixth level, even the eldest disciple Zeng Yeqiu was only at the fifth level, yet Xia Ningxue’s Inner Strength Heart Method had reached the same realm as the eldest sister!
“She is an unparalleled genius, following the Dao of Longevity. Although this kid Lu Changsheng has concealed his cultivation, having cultivated for more than two hundred years to reach the fourth layer of the Dao Palace, he is still worlds apart from my disciple,” said the Fairy Pavilion Master, still believing that Xia Ningxue would win as he watched the competition closely.
Holding the Nine Heavens Imperial Thunder Sword in hand, Lu Changsheng had yet to use his full strength, merely using the fourth layer of the Dao Palace realm to test Xia Ningxue’s reality.
The Taiqing Wuji Technique circulated, and Lu Changsheng had fully comprehended the fifth level of the Taiqing Wuji Technique, sufficient to contend with the Supreme Forgetting Love Art.
Lu Changsheng’s Daoist Robe fluttered, his True Qi forming a Taiji Diagram, slowly spinning around him as the center, blocking the chill of the encroaching ice.
“Taiqing Wuji Technique? Isn’t that the Sect-Defending Skill of Mount Shu?” “After that incident all those years ago, the former Sect Leader of Mount Shu stipulated that only the Supreme Elders, Sect Leader, and the Sect Leader candidates could be taught the Taiqing Wuji Technique. I didn’t expect you would breakyour master’s rule and pass the Taiqing Wuji Technique to a junior disciple.”
The Sect Leaders of the Fairy Pavilion, Martial Alliance, Immeasurable Temple, and others simultaneously turned to look at Daoist Master Taiyuan.
Daoist Master Taiyuan could only give a wry smile; he had not passed on the Taiqing Wuji Technique and had no clue how Lu Changsheng managed to cultivate it to the fifth level.
“The Taiqing Wuji Technique up against the Supreme Forgetting Love Art, with the two’s cultivation levels being so close, this is going to be quite the show.” The Elders of the six Orthodox Sects were on edge as they watched the ultimate showdown.
One bore the Sect-Defending Skills of Mount Shu, the other carried the forbidden ultimate technique of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion!
“Myriad Swords Return to Origin!”
Lu Changsheng wielded his sword, executing the Earth Rank superior
Cultivation Technique Myriad Swords Return to Origin, with tens of thousands of Spirit Swords formed from condensed Spiritual Energy appearing in the air, dense and innumerable!
Each Spirit Sword exuded an astonishing pressure, cutting through the ice on the Martial Arts Platform and creating ravines in all directions.
“Go!”
Lu Changsheng pointed with his Longsword, and ten thousand Spirit Swords flew towards Xia Ningxue as fast as lightning.
“Ice Sword Domain!”
Xia Ningxue formed sword gestures with her left hand and brandished her sword with her right, crisscrossing Cold Ice Sword Qi filled the air, and the atmosphere condensed into ice, forming a thick layer.
The ten thousand Spirit Swords bombarded the ice layer, shattering it into a spray of ice shards.
“Within Reach, Ends of the Earth!”
Xia Ningxue silently recited the mnemonic verse and in an instant, appeared before Lu Changsheng, her stunning visage emerging, followed by the chill of a three-foot Ice Sword.
Such a swift sword!
Lu Changsheng immediately changed his sword technique, the blade reverses, blocking Xia Ningxue’s Longsword.
The Taiqing Wuji Technique circulated rapidly, unaffected by the cold.
The two contestants matched their sword skills, with Sword Qi soaring to the sky, a black and a white figure rapidly colliding on the Martial Arts Platform. Xia Ningxue was a formidable opponent, but Lu Changsheng urged the Nine Heavens Imperial Thunder Sword, causing thunder and lightning, with dark clouds covering the skies above Misty Peak and silver snakes dancing wildly.
“An Innate Spirit Treasure?!”
“Little Brother Lu actually possesses such a treasure!”
“Little Brother Lu turns out to be a master, and perhaps, not even I am a match for him.”
Zhao Wuyan, witnessing the sky darken, with the Taiqing Wuji Technique, an Innate Spirit Treasure, and Lu Changsheng’s ensemble, even Zhao Wuyan lacked the confidence to best this low-profile junior disciple.
