Chapter 793: Chapter 523: One Hundred Thousand Years of Seclusion! (4K)_2
Grandmaster Taixu and Fairy Qingxia, although currently at the first realm of Immortal Emperor, both possess the special constitution “Spirit Sword Physique” and have a mutual understanding of each other’s hearts. If they were to use the “Holy Spirit Sword Art,” they could even defeat powerful enemies at the third or even fourth realm of Immortal Emperor.
Lu Changsheng is preparing to attend the Heavenly Court assembly, so he sent Si Ruyu to inform Grandmaster Taixu that Mount Shu must be cautious and vigilant during this ti, especially guarding against the Demon Sects such as the Blood Sea Palace.
In short, if anything happens before Lu Changsheng’s return, seek out the senior disciple Lin Qingzhi. If Lin Qingzhi cannot handle it, then wait for Lu Changsheng to co back and figure out a solution.
Grandmaster Taixu has heard of the Heavenly Court.
The Heavenly Court, located in the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Realm, overlooks the entire Immortal Realm with a hundred thousand divine palaces. Among them are powerful palaces like Mysterious Lady Palace and Three Pure Ones Palace, whose strengths even surpass those of Holy Lands.
In ancient tis, the Mysterious Lady Palace even gave birth to great experts like the Mount Taihua Goddess and the Taiyin Goddess, who were incredibly powerful.
...
If it were not for their eventual decline and the departure of these great experts like the Mount Taihua Goddess and the Taiyin Goddess to establish Holy Lands in the Immortal Realm, the Mysterious Lady Palace’s strength would be tenfold what it is now.
Ordinary cultivators, unless born in the Heavenly Court, would not even have the opportunity to enter it.
The resources of the many palaces in the Heavenly Court are only used to nurture their own people.
Only extrely outstanding talents might be accepted by the palaces of the Heavenly Court.
The talents of the Immortal Realm are almost monopolized by the Heavenly Court’s hundred thousand divine palaces, Holy Lands, and Prestigious Families. Compared to these places, the talents from dynasties and Sects seem quite ordinary.
“You go back and tell your master that during this period, I will strictly discipline the Mount Shu disciples.”
“Yes.”
“By the way, what realm has Lu Changsheng reached now?”
“Ancestor Master should be at the eighth realm of Immortal Emperor.”
“Lu Changsheng’s cultivation speed is really fast. Is he going to prove the Origin Dao Fruit and enter the Divine King Realm within a million years?”
Grandmaster Taixu cannot even fathom the cultivation speed of Lu Changsheng.
Back in the day at Mount Shu, Lu Changsheng’s realm was even below his, and now he has already surpassed Grandmaster Taixu by seven realms.
Moreover, Lu Changsheng practices martial and cultivation dual training and has exhausted a great deal of energy in Body Tempering, making him almost invincible in the sa realm.
In the first realm of Immortal Emperor, Grandmaster Taixu considers himself to be slightly above average.
In Jinglong Mountain, within Jing Long Immortal Temple, Qingyue Fairy is plucking the strings of a zither, while her disciple Shangguan Zhao’er has returned to Jinglong Mountain to cultivate under Qingyue Fairy’s guidance.
Qingyue Fairy still displays the cultivation of a Daluo Golden Immortal, but Shangguan Zhao’er now knows that Qingyue Fairy usually conceals her true cultivation. In reality, Qingyue Fairy’s strength is unfathomable. She was banished to Jinglong Mountain by the Heavenly Court to guard the Nine Nether Forbidden Land.
To the outside world, Qingyue Fairy only claims to be a Daluo Golden Immortal and doesn’t show power beyond that level. She acts discreetly, and even in the case of minor figures like Han Jie, Qingyue Fairy did not strike to eradicate him, seemingly unwilling to draw attention.
As for why Qingyue Fairy was banished here, Qingyue Fairy has not said and Shangguan Zhao’er also has not asked.
“The Heavenly Court assembly…”
Upon hearing Shangguan Zhao’er ntion that Lu Changsheng was about to attend the Heavenly Court assembly, Qingyue Fairy’s hand on the zither strings suddenly stopped.
“Master, could there be danger at the Heavenly Court assembly?”
“With the representatives from all the great Holy Lands and Prestigious Families attending the Heavenly Court assembly, and with so many experts present, there naturally wouldn’t be any danger. Even the Demon Lords from the Demon Realm would not dare attack the Heavenly Court.”
“Then why does Master seem sowhat concerned?”
“Your master is just reminded of so past events.”
With a movent of her hands, Qingyue Fairy resud playing, and the sound of the zither echoed throughout the Immortal Temple.
At Mount Taihua, Lu Changsheng is subrged in a huge dicinal pool, his black hair ssily spread behind him, his body emitting a faint golden glow.
The pool is a thick blood-red color, but instead of various demon blood used for cultivating Demonic Arts, it contains rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures such as Qilin Blood, Origin Dao Fruit, Phoenix Fruit, Hongng Purple Ginseng King, and Fire Dragon Grass, which were refined into top-notch Body Tempering Elixirs. In the blood-red water of the pool, one could occasionally see the deep purple essence of the Hongng Purple Ginseng King seeping out.
His body is voraciously consuming the best Body Tempering Elixirs made from various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Lu Changsheng’s expression is one of agony as his physique—and even his soul—are torn apart by the imnse dicinal power. Each Body Tempering session is akin to a complete rebirth, which gives so idea of the pain he endures.
Lu Changsheng cultivated the “Eternal Indestructible Art,” which had already afforded him the experience of rebirth four tis, so this ti, Lu Changsheng managed to endure the agony without falling into demonic deviation.
Every day, a small portion of the elixir in the Body Tempering Pool would be depleted.
After repeating this process for three years, the pool finally ran dry.
A faint glow radiated from Lu Changsheng’s reborn flesh, shining brilliantly as his body was completely renewed.
“The fifth level of the ‘Eternal Indestructible Art’ is now complete. My body is now equivalent to a seventh-grade Dao Artifact.”
“This Cultivation Technique is truly formidable, but each Body Tempering session is like taking a walk through Ghost Gate Pass, an extre agony.”
Lu Changsheng endured tornt for three years, an excruciating ti, to achieve the fifth level of the ‘Eternal Indestructible Art.’
The “Eternal Indestructible Art” is a very tyrannical technique; if completed to the tenth level, it could rival a second-grade Dao Artifact, making the flesh indestructible.
However, because cultivating this technique involves enduring endless extre pain during Body Tempering and could even lead to death, almost no one chooses to cultivate this masochistic Body Tempering Skill.
The benefits of cultivating the “Eternal Indestructible Art” are also clear.
Lu Changsheng has not yet reached the Divine King Realm, but his body already rivals a seventh-grade Dao Artifact. So Divine King experts do not necessarily possess a body as formidable as Lu Changsheng’s.
During a closed-door retreat of one hundred thousand years, Lu Changsheng cultivated the “Eternal Indestructible Art” from the third to the fifth level.
In these hundred thousand years, Lu Changsheng insisted on teaching his disciples daily and also obtained an Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill and a Sword Dao Divine Fruit.
The Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill could temporarily elevate Lu Changsheng to the Divine King Realm; it was a rare twenty-first grade Divine Pill that would not be used lightly under normal circumstances.
In this Heavenly Court convention, the various talents from the Immortal Realm compete without the use of Elixir Pills, and even the grade and type of magical treasures are clearly stipulated.
This is to prevent soone from bringing out an against-the-heavens treasure like the “Ruthless Water Fire Bottle” and simply capturing their opponent inside, which wouldn’t truly reflect the user’s own strength.
They can only rely on their real, solid strength in the competition.
This is also why Lu Changsheng made a forced push to cultivate the “Eternal Indestructible Art” to the fifth level within one hundred thousand years, to maximize the strength of his body as much as possible.
Though the Heavenly Court convention established the strength for various allowable magical treasures, it did not set rules for the strength of one’s body.
“I’ve accumulated 665 Dao Artifact Fragnts, ready to be forged into a new Dao Artifact at any mont. I wonder if I should forge when I collect 666 fragnts or wait until I have 999?”
“Since the more fragnts I have, the stronger the Dao Artifact created will be, I’ll just continue accumulating.”
Lu Changsheng had accumulated quite a few Dao Artifact Fragnts while teaching his disciples, which could possibly combine into new treasures that might save a life at crucial monts.
Anyway, during the Heavenly Court competition, the use of overly heaven-defying magical treasures is prohibited. Even if he created a treasure of higher grade than “Purple Lightning Clear Frost” and “Black Emperor’s Demonic Robe,” it would be of no use.
Lu Changsheng prioritized enhancing his own strength.
Lu Changsheng took out the Sword Dao Divine Fruit, the second one he had obtained.
Lu Changsheng ate it in one bite, entering a state of Path Comprehension, fully focused on deciphering the Fourth Sword Realm of “One Sword Across Ages”.
He intended to use the second Sword Dao Divine Fruit to completely master the Fourth Sword Realm.
Having morized all eight chapters and twelve thousand words of mnemonic verse for the Fourth Sword Realm in his state of Path Comprehension, Lu Changsheng grasped the essence of Sword Dao, advancing by leaps and bounds.
When the state of Path Comprehension ended, Lu Changsheng’s temperant underwent a radical transformation.
“With the mastery of the Fourth Sword Realm, I can kill without accruing karma. As long as I erase all traces, even if I were to kill the disciple of a Great Expert, it would be difficult for them to trace it back to .”
It was ti to find Lin Xuantong and obtain the mnemonic verse for the Fifth Sword Realm.
With full mastery of the Fifth Sword Realm, even those who are undying could be slayed.
At Lin Xuantong’s abode, when Lin Xuantong heard that Lu Changsheng had fully mastered the Fourth Sword Realm and needed the verse to cultivate the Fifth Sword Realm, Lin Xuantong was stunned.
Ah?
