Real Master Taiyuan stroked his beard and said, "If Changsheng masters this set of profound swordsmanship, perhaps Changsheng can help us Mount Shu score a place in the upcoming Zhong Zhou convention. It's a pity that the convention is approaching too soon. Otherwise, if we wait until Changsheng's cultivation reaches the ninth level of the Unity Realm, he might contend for the top three positions."
Situ Kong said, "Taiyuan, you needn't worry too much. If he can secure a decent ranking for our Mount Shu, that's already quite an achievent. Otherwise, if the Zhong Zhou convention were held after his ascension to the Immortal Realm, our Mount Shu would hardly have any talented individuals to send into battle."
"Uncle Master, you are mistaken. Once Changsheng ascends to the Immortal Realm, Mount Shu will still have those disciples from Qingyun Peak."
"I almost forgot about them. It's quite possible that the disciples from Qingyun Peak will soon catch up with us. I really can't understand why those few disciples from Qingyun Peak cultivate so rapidly? Every one of them has the makings of a Sect Leader."
Reflecting on Lu Changsheng's disciples from Qingyun Peak, who had all beco Void Refinent Realm Supre Elders, Situ Kong realized that his second disciple, Lu Qinglian, had recently begun challenging the Supre Elders of Mount Shu. Even Li Changye, Lu Changsheng's eldest senior brother, could only manage a draw with Lu Qinglian, and that was without Lu Qinglian using an Immortal Artifact.
The mountain-guarding Divine Beast of Qingyun Peak was also a Demon Race Great Power at the level of the Void Refinent Realm.
Given the growth rate of the nurous disciples from Qingyun Peak, it was quite possible that in a few hundred years, their cultivation levels might surpass Situ Kong and Real Master Taiyuan, and they would take over Mount Shu after Lu Changsheng's ascension to the Immortal Realm.
Real Master Taiyuan looked towards the elder janitor of Ten Thousand Swords Peak and asked, "Dare I ask how my disciple compares with the powerhouses of Star Pavilion?"
The old janitor's wrinkled face twitched, and his murky eyes seed to recall the past. "Star Pavilion has been established for a million years as Zhong Zhou's number one sect, siphoning extraordinary talents from each state. The strong grow stronger, and the weak get weaker.
There are hundreds of peerless talents who have ascended to the Immortal Realm from their ranks, while our Mount Shu has only produced a dozen or so in the past five hundred thousand years."
"Star Pavilion has a vast number of unparalleled talents, so they have peak Unity Realm experts in every era, and they possess cultivation techniques that transcend this realm. Except for the Ancestral Master and Immortal Green Lotus, no one from Mount Shu can defeat the powerhouses of Star Pavilion."
"If this child's cultivation rises to the peak of the Unity Realm, relying on a cultivation technique that surpasses those of this realm, he may be able to battle with the powerhouses of Star Pavilion."
"Otherwise, this child might just beco a stepping stone for a powerhouse from Star Pavilion on their way to ascend to the Immortal Realm."
"To think that Star Pavilion is so powerful..."
Situ Kong and Real Master Taiyuan looked at each other, taken aback.
The two of them had heard of the might of Star Pavilion, but they did not realize that Star Pavilion possessed cultivation techniques that surpassed this realm. Moreover, Star Pavilion absorbed talents from all the states, ensuring that no matter the era, they always had peak Unity Realm experts at the helm, preventing any gaps in succession.
It was like the world before Lu Changsheng's transmigration where the best schools could attract the most excellent students, from whom the top talents were often nurtured, thus securing their position over ti.
Mount Shu, on the other hand, drew its talents from Xia State and had to share them with the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion, Martial Alliance, Hidden Dragon Temple, and Imasurable Temple, hence the number of strong cultivators and the depth of their resources couldn't compare to Star Pavilion, which could face eras without successors.
The old janitor wasn't very optimistic about Lu Changsheng surpassing, in such a short amount of ti, those from Star Pavilion who have cultivated for ten to twenty thousand years and practiced heaven-defying cultivation techniques.
With the foundation of Star Pavilion, it was conceivable that a Unity Realm powerhouse nearing their end might perform an initiation to forcefully expedite the cultivation of a disciple with peerless talent.
With the initiation and one to two thousand years of cultivation, it goes without saying just how formidable the peerless talents of Star Pavilion would be.
Lu Changsheng solely focused on cultivating the Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art, and only when he encountered a bottleneck in his realm did he cease his cultivation.
He needed to properly assimilate the comprehension of the Ancestral Master's sword intent.
"Xia Ningxue seems to be making great progress in cultivating the Sword Dao; the Dual Cultivation System has returned quite a bit of Sword Dao Comprehension to ."
As Lu Changsheng was cultivating, he noticed that Xia Ningxue was also cultivating the Sword Dao, which is why the Dual Cultivation System returned additional Sword Dao comprehension.
In an effort to accelerate his cultivation, Lu Changsheng even had his disciples deliver Elixir Pills to Xia Ningxue to quicken her cultivation and then gain additional cultivation through the Dual Cultivation System.
Lu Changsheng wanted to boost his cultivation by leveraging return from ntoring, dual cultivation returns, and by seizing the mont to hastily improve his cultivation level and master his techniques before the start of the Zhong Zhou convention.
The inner cultivation technique Lu Changsheng practiced was the twelfth layer of the Supre Purity Limitless Technique, martial skills included Hundredfold Desolate Force, Heaven-Breaking Divine Fist, and Golden Bell Shield; movent technique was the Drunken Fairy Gazing Moon Step; swordsmanship encompassed Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art, Heaven Escape Sword Skills, and Seven Star Sword Formation.
His tracking art was Soul Searching Skills, and his Body Refinent thods included the Immortal Divine Art and Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills...
If he could master all these techniques along with improving his cultivation, Lu Changsheng was confident about challenging the champion, Star Pavilion.
The Zhong Zhou convention would be attended by sects from all the states.
Aside from the Star Pavilion, there were powerhouses from other sects.
Among these sects, so had peak experts at the Unity Realm, and their cultivation techniques might not be inferior to the top-tier Immortal-grade "Divine Sword Commanding Wind Art".
However, Lu Changsheng's advantage lay in the fact that his cultivation technique was more comprehensive, and he was virtually invincible within the sa realm; he could even easily defeat Lei Tiannan of the Unity Realm fourth level while being at the second level himself.
"Strange, what is the origin of the old handyman from Ten Thousand Swords Peak? Why does he have no cultivation at all, no different from a mortal, yet he hasn't changed at all over the years?"
Lu Changsheng noticed the old handyman who was still sweeping fallen leaves at Ten Thousand Swords Peak.
This old handyman, day in and day out for a hundred years, had not changed a single bit since the day Lu Changsheng first saw him.
If he was a cultivation-less mortal, his lifespan would barely exceed a hundred years, but this old handyman knew his grand-uncle and the real person Taiyuan, which might an he had lived for thousands of years.
It was truly unfathomable that he seemingly had no cultivation, couldn't lend a hand during the Mount Shu catastrophe, yet had such a long lifespan.
Nevertheless, the real person Taiyuan never explained the old handyman's origins.
After contemplating the Ancestral Master's sword intent, Lu Changsheng returned to Qingyun Peak to continue the twelfth layer of his Taiqing Wuji Technique and his ntoring of disciples.
Lu Changsheng only needed to visit the myriad sword walls at Ten Thousand Swords Peak to cultivate his sword techniques by borrowing the Ancestral Master's sword intent.
Normally, Lu Changsheng would cultivate at Qingyun Peak.
He delegated the trivial matters of Mount Shu to his eldest senior brother and his own eldest disciple, not allowing it to delay his cultivation.
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Chen Yao with a lower-grade Immortal Sword "Boundless Immortal Sword" and received a million-fold return reward for ntoring: a Fragnt of an Ultimate Treasure of the human race.]
[Ding, you have now collected six Fragnts of an Ultimate Treasure of the human race; a complete Ultimate Treasure can be ford. Do you wish to form it?]
In the fiftieth year of his closed-door cultivation, Lu Changsheng, as usual, taught his disciples, and this ti, he unexpectedly triggered a million-fold return, collecting the six fragnts needed to form an Ultimate Treasure of the human race!
Could it be that with just six Treasured Fragnts, an Ultimate Treasure of the human race could be ford?
Lu Changsheng was excited beyond asure.
"Here are so elixir pills; go down and cultivate."
Lu Changsheng rewarded Chen Yao with four rank-eight elixir pills.
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Chen Yao with a rank-eight Elixir Pill "Red Emperor Dragon Strength Pill" and received a hundredfold return reward for ntoring: a rank-nine Immortal Pill "Dragon Blood Returning Yuan Pill".]
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Chen Yao with a rank-eight Elixir Pill "Red Emperor Dragon Strength Pill" and received an eight-thousand-fold return reward for ntoring: a rank-ten Immortal Pill "Nine Dragons Empowernt Pill".]
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Chen Yao with a rank-eight Elixir Pill "Red Flood Dragon Gold Pill" and received a fiftyfold return reward for ntoring: a rank-nine Elixir Pill "Jin Jiao Xian Dan".]
[Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Chen Yao with a rank-eight Elixir Pill "Red Flood Dragon Gold Pill" and received a nine-thousand-fold return reward for ntoring: a rank-ten Elixir Pill "Demon Dragon Essence Core".]
The four rank-eight elixir pills he had rewarded Chen Yao with had actually returned two rank-ten elixir pills!
But at the mont, Lu Changsheng wasn't concerned about the rank-ten elixir pills he received in return.
After Chen Yao left filled with gratitude, he chose to form the Ultimate Treasure of the human race.
[Ding, you have used six Fragnts of an Ultimate Treasure of the human race and ford a lower-grade Ultimate Treasure — the rank-twelve Nirvana Flas Red Lotus.]
