A silver needle struck Lu Qinglian's forehead and, surprisingly, couldn't penetrate the defense; it snapped instead...
"What kind of monster is this..."
The crowd was shocked to see that the Storm Pear Flower Needles had only drained so of Lu Qinglian's True Qi.
This guy's physique is even stronger than a dium-grade Ultimate Treasure!
Several Peak Masters were stunned.
Lu Qinglian is just a Heavenly Immortal after all!
However, Lu Changsheng was calm; Lu Qinglian had consud who knows how many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and his body was the special Martial King Divine Physique. If his flesh wasn't this strong, that would be the real oddity.
Nonetheless, this martial arts tournant could still provide Lu Qinglian with more experience, and he would need to be cautious of hidden weapons like the Storm Pear Flower Needles in the future.
"I surrender."
Tang Si, realizing that his exclusive hidden weapon, the Storm Pear Flower Needles, couldn't harm Lu Qinglian, hastily conceded.
He didn't want to be hit by another punch from Lu Qinglian.
"Boring."
Lu Qinglian had just summoned the Nirvana Flas Red Lotus, ready to strike with full force, when Tang Si already surrendered, so she had to put away her treasure.
"Did I see that right just now, that treasure is an upper-grade Ultimate Treasure, right?"
"A Heavenly Immortal actually has an upper-grade Ultimate Treasure. The disciples of Daoist Changsheng all possess a bunch of treasures; it seems Daoist Changsheng has an extraordinary background."
"I think Daoist Changsheng's Daoist na might as well be changed to Duobao Daoist."
The Supre Elders of the Zhengsheng Sect whispered among themselves, astonished.
Not even all the Supre Elders might have an upper-grade Ultimate Treasure, and the treasures owned by Lu Changsheng's disciples started at least at the dium-grade Ultimate Treasure level, and they each had several of them.
"Luo Yu, I've won again; do you concede now?"
Daoist Yuxuan won another True Martial Fire Elental Pill from Daoist Luo Yu.
"I concede."
Daoist Luo Yu, having lost three tis in a row, was completely dispirited.
The competition continued.
Coming to the ninety-seventh match, Ning Qianqian took the stage.
"Luo Yu, care to bet again?"
Daoist Yuxuan asked Daoist Luo Yu to place another wager.
Daoist Luo Yu stayed silent for a long while, then uttered just one word: "Scram."
As expected, Ning Qianqian easily defeated her opponent.
The Elders' competition turned completely into the world of Lu Changsheng's four disciples, slaying gods if gods stood in their way, and destroying Buddhas if Buddhas blocked their path.
All four of Lu Changsheng's disciples advanced to the second round, third round, fourth round... The many Elders and disciples of the Zhengsheng Sect beca numb to it.
Ultimately, all four of the top spots in the Elders' category were taken by Lu Changsheng's disciples.
The nine Peak Masters looked at each other in disbelief.
Never before had the Nine Veins Martial eting seen such a situation.
The top four spots all claid by fellow sect disciples!
Even Daoist Yuxuan was stunned.
Lu Changsheng's four disciples were too strong.
Below the Great Accomplishnt Heavenly Immortal, Lu Changsheng's four disciples were virtually unbeatable.
The Elder hosting the Nine Veins Martial eting scratched his head; for the upcoming semi-finals and finals, these fellow disciples could freely decide their rankings among themselves.
Indeed, Lu Qinglian, Ning Qianqian, Xiao Fan, and Dugu Aotian often sparred with each other, so there was no need to reveal all their cards under everyone's watchful eyes. In the end, they had a symbolic fight to determine the winner—Lu Qinglian ca first, Xiao Fan second, Ning Qianqian third, and Dugu Aotian fourth.
"This is the reward for the top three winners of this Nine Veins Martial eting—a dium-grade Ultimate Treasure Asura Blood Sword, a lower-grade Ultimate Treasure Six Elephants Tower, and a lower-grade Ultimate Treasure Green Dragon Soft Armor."
Qingyangzi waved his large sleeves, and three treasures emitting powerful pressure appeared. They landed in the hands of Lu Qinglian, Xiao Fan, and Ning Qianqian amid envious looks from nurous Elders and disciples.
"Junior brother, this sword is of no use to ; you can have it."
Lu Qinglian casually threw the Asura Blood Sword to Dugu Aotian.
The Asura Blood Sword, which was sowhat demonic, suited Dugu Aotian, who cultivated demonic arts, much better anyway.
Moreover, Lu Qinglian already had the upper-grade Ultimate Treasure level Nirvana Flas Red Lotus in advance, and the strength of his Martial King Divine Physique had already surpassed a dium-grade Ultimate Treasure; he really didn't care much for such a dium-grade Ultimate Treasure.
Lu Qinglian knew that as long as he pestered his master for it, not to ntion a dium-grade Ultimate Treasure, even an upper-grade Ultimate Treasure and even Holy Artifacts, Lu Changsheng would be willing to give them to him.
It was just that Lu Qinglian didn't have enough True Qi to activate the Holy Artifact.
Xiao Fan and Ning Qianqian didn't make a big deal out of the lower-grade Ultimate Treasures they obtained and simply put them away.
The elders and disciples of Zhengsheng Sect were dumbfounded. Why didn't the disciples of Lu Changsheng seem excited at all about obtaining Ultimate Treasures?
It could only an that they had so many Ultimate Treasures that they were just capricious.
Qingyangzi himself was feeling sowhat frustrated.
Could it be that the few disciples of Lu Changsheng were just here to play around?
"Ahem, next up is the competition for the group of Supre Elders."
The group of elders had been wreaked havoc by the disciples of Lu Changsheng, and now it was finally the turn for the strongest group, the Supre Elders, to compete.
Out of the nine peaks, thirty-two Supre Elders participated in the competition, each at least at the peak of Heavenly Immortal, and so even at the half-step Daluo Golden Immortal stage.
Jingyun Peak was relatively weaker, with only three slots.
Among them, Lu Changsheng occupied one slot.
The other two were nine-layer Heavenly Immortals.
"First match of the group, Star Sword Daoist from Mount Zhengsheng versus Elder Song from Tianxiang Peak."
"Didn't expect the head disciple of the Sect Leader to enter the fray so soon."
"Star Sword Daoist is a half-step Daluo Golden Immortal, Elder Song is in for a tough battle."
The people of Zhengsheng Sect erupted with excitent.
Star Sword Daoist, the chief disciple of Mount Zhengsheng, was an unparalleled master of the Sword Dao, renowned within Zhengsheng Sect as invincible below the Daluo Golden Immortals and the Supre Elder most likely to beco a Daluo Golden Immortal!
Lu Changsheng's expression gradually turned serious. Star Sword Daoist was the main disciple of Qingyangzi. Although his background was not as prominent as Protector Han's, he had cultivated for a longer ti and was not necessarily weaker than Protector Han.
Lu Changsheng decided it was best to observe Star Sword Daoist's divine skills beforehand, just to be safe.
Elder Song from Tianxiang Peak had a worried expression. He was facing Star Sword Daoist in his first match and was likely to be defeated.
Star Sword Daoist was very complacent, didn't even use any treasures, simply forming sword techniques with two fingers and using True Qi to form Sword Qi, battling Elder Song.
Within the ti it took for one cup of tea to brew, Elder Song was defeated.
"As expected of Star Sword Daoist!"
"The chief disciple cultivated by the Sect Leader is truly extraordinary!"
Many elders and disciples praised Star Sword Daoist in succession.
In the future, Star Sword Daoist had hopes of succeeding Qingyangzi as the Sect Leader of Zhengsheng Sect. Currying favor with Star Sword Daoist now ant a smoother path in the sect later on.
Star Sword Daoist, expressionless, returned to his seat at Mount Zhengsheng.
Qingyangzi nodded in satisfaction, "With your cultivation base, you're not far off from a true Daluo Golden Immortal. Even without the Enlightennt Tea Leaves, in less than three thousand years, you're bound to step into the Golden Immortal realm. If you win first place this ti and get the Enlightennt Tea Leaves, you can save them for future comprehension of cultivation techniques."
"Master is right, in this Nine Veins Martial eting, I want to use the opportunity of these bouts to consolidate my realm and understanding of Dao as much as possible, increasing my chances in transcending tribulations. As for the Enlightennt Tea Leaves, having them or not doesn't matter much," replied Star Sword Daoist.
Star Sword Daoist ditated to regulate his breath, preparing for the second round of competition.
The competition for the group of Supre Elders continued.
Lu Changsheng was in the ninth group.
He defeated his opponent using just the dium-grade Ultimate Treasure, the Absolute Immortal Sword.
Qingyangzi, Holy Maiden Tai Hua, as well as several Peak Masters were still unable to gauge Lu Changsheng's true strength.
On the other hand, Han Jie's heart was like a stormy sea.
When he left Jing Long Immortal Temple, Lu Changsheng was just an Earth Immortal, but now he had beco a half-step Daluo Golden Immortal!
Such a rate of cultivation, even the Ancient Han Family did not have a genius who could achieve it.
"This fellow must have stumbled upon serendipitous opportunities, entered the Sudden Enlightennt Realm, or perhaps he found so Cave Heaven Blessed Land where ti flowed slower," Han Jie speculated. He couldn't believe that Lu Changsheng's talent was so astonishing and could only chalk it up to luck.
In the fourth round, the first match, Star Sword Daoist from Mount Zhengsheng faced Han Jie from Azure Dragon Peak.
Against everyone's expectations, Star Sword Daoist, who was regarded with great expectations, was defeated by Han Jie.
A green ruler hovered in the Mustard Seed Fairy Pot Space, causing the entire space to tremble.
Star Sword Daoist was not inferior to Han Jie and even wounded him, but Han Jie had brought a Holy Artifact from the Ancient Han Family!
This Holy Artifact was one of the treasures that protected the Han Family!
Triumphant, Han Jie looked towards Lu Changsheng, and although he didn't know what adventures Lu Changsheng had gone through to suddenly beco a half-step Daluo Golden Immortal, with a Holy Artifact in hand, what could Lu Changsheng use to win against him?
