“A mere sixth level Earth Immortal dares to challenge my chief disciple. He truly knows not whether he’s alive or dead,”
Protector Han said with disdain.

The “Fire Qilin Sword” he had bestowed was an unparalleled ferocious sword.
When Sun Peng summoned the Fire Qilin Sword, the divine sword’s flames soared to the sky, stirring the winds and clouds, and its presence overpowered Lu Changsheng.
Not many people had faith in Lu Changsheng.
After all, the gap between Sun Peng’s and Lu Changsheng’s realms was there for all to see.
“The gap of three realms has doomed you to be no match for me. Let me show you my Blazing Cloud Sword Skills.”
With Protector Han’s secret instruction, Sun Peng harbored murderous intent and fully activated the Fire Qilin Sword. Its flames roared fiercely, with the terrifying pressure almost materializing as a massive Fire Qilin that seemed to collapse the heavens itself, bearing down upon Lu Changsheng.
A Great Accomplished Earth Immortal wielding a superior Merit Treasure had a might that could destroy heaven and earth, leaving the spectating Elders and Disciples utterly horrified.
“Rivers to the Sea!”
Lu Changsheng wielded the Absolute Immortal Sword, his Sword Qi transforming into thousands of rivers, tumultuous and surging, colliding with the sky-high inferno of the Fire Qilin Sword!
The two streams of Sword Qi, like water and fire meeting, created fiery torrents and evaporative water flows, shaking the very space!
Despite being at a lower realm, Lu Changsheng’s Sword Qi barely managed to hold off the assault of the Fire Qilin Sword.
“This is the Sacred Tier middle-grade Cultivation Technique ‘Rivers to the Sea’!”
“He’s actually cultivated this technique to Great Perfection!”
The four Protectors and all the Supreme Elders were greatly moved.
They had not expected Lu Changsheng to be able to withstand the Fire Qilin Sword wielded by a fully-powered Great Accomplished Earth Immortal.
“Indeed, he is a cultivation prodigy; to think that he only took three hundred years to reach Great Perfection of a Sacred Tier middle-grade Cultivation Technique from scratch.”
What startled the Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple even more was Lu Changsheng’s miraculous speed of cultivation.
Even Heavenly Immortal level Supreme Elders wouldn’t dare claim to reach Great Perfection of a Sacred Tier middle-grade Cultivation Technique in three hundred years.
“It’s useless; there’s a pure difference in realms between him and my chief disciple!”
Protector Han felt an ominous premonition, but he remained convinced that his chief disciple could defeat Lu Changsheng.
A ninth level Earth Immortal and a sixth level Earth Immortal – that was a gap of three whole realms!
“Sun Peng.”
Protector Han, not satisfied with his disciple’s performance, secretly transmitted a message to him.
“Hah!”
Sun Peng, in his haste, stimulated the Fire Qilin Sword further. The Treasure formed flames that now took on an even more ferocious form of a Fire Qilin, with gnashing fangs and bristling whiskers, as if intent on incinerating everything before it!
The Fire Qilin, one of the divine beasts of the Immortal Realm, with a fully-grown body could rival a Daluo Golden Immortal; a treasure forged with the blood of a Fire Qilin and imbued with its fiery essence possessed boundless power.
Lu Changsheng seemed to be trapped in an endless Fire Prison.
With but a thought from Lu Changsheng, a blood-red lotus appeared, releasing an invisible Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, forming a flame barrier around him in an attempt to stave off the Qilin fire to the best it could.
“An inferior treasure? It won’t help.”
Sun Peng poured another surge of robust True Qi into the Fire Qilin Sword.
Roar.
The roar of the Fire Qilin echoed as the Fire Qilin Sword’s flames blazed tens of thousands of feet high, collapsing the sea of clouds!
Crack.
The ground fissured, and with merely the oppressive force of the Fire Qilin Sword, Lu Changsheng was driven deep into the ravines beneath the earth!
The Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, an inferior treasure, was no match for the Fire Qilin Sword.
“Die for me!”
Sun Peng felt a surge of killing intent and resolved to finish the job, to kill Lu Changsheng in one fell swoop.
Wave after wave of pure and massive True Qi funneled into the Fire Qilin Sword, its blade patterns lighting up and the Qilin’s roars growing ever more ferocious.
The Fire Qilin Sword was originally Protector Han’s treasure, a treasure capable of threatening even a Heavenly Immortal.
“It’s too much of a strain.”
Shangguan Zhao’er couldn’t help but worry for Lu Changsheng’s safety.
If Protector Han himself wielded the Fire Qilin Sword, even Shangguan Zhao’er would be in peril, let alone Lu Changsheng, who hadn’t reached Great Accomplishment in the Earth Immortal Realm.
Just as Shangguan Zhao’er was about to intervene and stop the duel from continuing, a golden Treasure Pagoda proactively defended its master, hovering above Lu Changsheng’s head, shining brightly and, together with the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, holding off the Qilin’s Divine Fire.
The Treasure Pagoda’s radiant light was dazzling and incomparable.
“This is a defensive Ultimate Treasure!”
“Its level cannot be discerned, it must be a special treasure. Could it be a Merit Treasure?”
“A single Earth Immortal, in possession of three treasures?”
The four Protectors and the congregation of Supreme Elders were stunned once more.
There were several hundred Loose Immortals on Jinglong Mountain, but perhaps less than half possessed a treasure!
Yet Lu Changsheng, an Earth Immortal, had a middle-grade Immortal Sword, the Absolute Immortal Sword, an inferior treasure, the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, and an unknown tier Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda!
“Merit Treasure? This Merit Treasure bears some resemblance to the forty-nine layered Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda described in the ancient texts.”
The Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple, upon witnessing the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda summoned by Lu Changsheng, had her star-like eyes brighten, as she recalled a treasure she had seen in the ancient texts.
However, such a high-level treasure should not possibly belong to a mere Earth Immortal.
“This Pagoda, compared to the one documented, has far fewer layers and is worlds apart in power; it could simply be a similar yet distinct treasure.”
The Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple shook her head gently, not believing her fleeting thought.
The forty-nine layered Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda was an ancient Merit Treasure, a Dao Artifact wielded by beings of the utmost supremacy. The Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple had not had the fortune to see one herself, so how could it possibly land in the hands of an Earth Immortal?
Moreover, according to Shangguan Zhao’er, Lu Changsheng was only an Immortal who ascended to Immortal Realm from her minor world just over a thousand years ago.
The forty-nine layered Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda would not appear in one of the Three Thousand Minor Worlds.
