Supreme Elder of Taishi Holy Land: “Your second disciple dealt a heavy blow during a spar, injuring my disciple! My disciple only spoke of allowing her three punches, was there need for her to be so serious!”
Elder of the Ancient Yi Clan: “Your disciple has been bestowing favors within our Ancient Yi Clan’s area of influence. The locals and ordinary cultivators there were originally venerating our Ancient Yi Clan, but after your disciple arrived, the people began worshiping at their shrine instead. Our Ancient Yi Clan and Mount Taihua Holy Land have always kept to our respective domains, so why has your disciple come into our domain to compete for veneration?”
Elder of Changliu Holy Land wore a sour expression as burned marks were visible on his mustache and temples: “Your second disciple defeated mine, but then she spoke to me disrespectfully. This old man disciplined her, yet she retaliated with a superior Emperor Soldier, injuring me, and even set fire to my Daoist Temple, this is utterly outrageous!”
“A superior Emperor Soldier?”
Everyone was airing their grievances, but the words of the Elder of Changliu Holy Land stunned everyone, and they were immediately shocked.
In these thirty thousand years in the Immortal Realm, Lu Qinglian actually possessed a superior Emperor Soldier!
No wonder Lu Qinglian was so arrogant and destructive.
Lu Qinglian owned the superior Emperor Soldier “Nirvana Flames Red Lotus”, a magic weapon that was most compatible with her. It was Lu Qinglian’s main magic weapon. Even the Elders at the preliminary stage of the Immortal Emperor were prone to injury if they were not careful when facing the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus wielded by Lu Qinglian at the Quasi-Emperor stage.
Most likely, the Elder of Changliu Holy Land had not anticipated that Lu Qinglian possessed the magic weapon Nirvana Flames Red Lotus and was caught off guard, leading to Lu Qinglian burning his mustache, temples, and brow with the Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, and even the Daoist Temple was reduced to ash.
What was even more surprising was the fact that Lu Changsheng had given a superior Emperor Soldier to his disciple to wreak havoc everywhere.
Truly, the Holy Son of Mount Taihua was as wealthy as a nation.
Giving away a superior Emperor Soldier to his disciple without using it for himself?
After all, Lu Changsheng was only at the preliminary stage of the Immortal Emperor!
A master at the preliminary Immortal Emperor Realm giving a superior Emperor Soldier to a Quasi-Emperor disciple seemed quite preposterous.
“Lu, you’re really going overboard, giving a superior Emperor Soldier to a Quasi-Emperor disciple, especially one who’s most skilled at causing trouble.”
“No matter how wealthy you are, this is not acceptable, is it?”
The attention of everyone shifted to an odd focus.
“I am not lacking in magic weapons. What does it matter if I gift one to my disciple?”
As soon as Lu Changsheng finished speaking, everyone was in an uproar.
Rich and willful!
To everyone’s astonishment, they were left speechless.
“Although my disciple is naughty, these accusations are not entirely correct. Some of the blame also lies with you all.”
There was another wave of commotion.
Lu Changsheng was defending his disciple, yet what he said wasn’t entirely wrong.
“I will compensate for all your losses.”
“Moreover, the treasures I offer as compensation will definitely be more valuable than your losses.”
Just as everyone was about to collectively condemn Lu Changsheng, he spoke up, leaving them all speechless once again.
They wanted to criticize Lu Changsheng loudly, but the compensation he offered was too generous.
What could they possibly say to that?
“It seems that Lu understands his disciple’s misbehavior.”
“Repentance is the greatest virtue.”
“With that being the case, we dare not say too much.”
Everyone left satisfied with their compensation, deciding not to pursue the matter for the time being.
They couldn’t very well punish Lu Qinglian severely.
Create a fuss, receive compensation, and let it go.
Lu Changsheng acted as though it was no big deal.
He had plenty of magic weapons anyway.
It wasn’t entirely Lu Qinglian’s fault for the incidents; others played a part in it too.
Lu Qinglian’s Martial King Divine Physique grew stronger with battle.
The wealth that Lu Changsheng had amassed could indeed allow Lu Qinglian to be extravagant for some time.
“Master, we’ve returned.”
Lu Qinglian came back to Yuntai Peak, hopping and jumping along with Ning Qianqian.
“Since you have returned, your master shall initiate the power-infusing initiation for you.”
Without reproaching Lu Qinglian and Ning Qianqian, Lu Changsheng began their power-infusing initiation.
A massive amount of True Qi entered the bodies of the two from their Heavenly Spirits, refining the cultivation of Lu Qinglian and Ning Qianqian.
At the same time, the system recalculated and returned three hundred million points of Heavenly Cultivation.
The three hundred million points of Heavenly Cultivation allowed Lu Changsheng to directly enter the fourth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Lu Changsheng immediately went into seclusion to attempt the breakthrough.
As long as he broke through to the fourth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm, Dantai Meng wouldn’t stand a chance without a Dao Artifact, and even without using the Taiyin Goddess Talisman, Lu Changsheng would have a good chance of defeating Dantai Meng.
Lu Changsheng challenged the fourth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm.
For a time, Yuntai Peak exhibited extraordinary phenomena, with the Purple Aura Coming from the East for tens of thousands of miles, the colors of heaven and earth changing, and the sounds of the Great Dao echoing across Taihua Divine Mountain.
The Supreme Elders, Elders, and Disciples of the Taihua Holy Land were startled by the sight before them.
“How did this kid make a breakthrough so suddenly when he was only a small step away from it a few days ago? Could he truly be a genius?”
“A genius? He is more like a monster.”
The Supreme Elders of the Holy Land were astounded.
The breakthrough of Lu Changsheng was really unreasonable; he was clearly lacking a portion of his cultivation yesterday, yet today his cultivation suddenly surged tremendously, utterly defiant of all reason.
Even these Supreme Elders, despite having lived for so many years, had to admit they had never seen such a heaven-defying disciple.
This disciple could not merely be described as heaven-defying anymore.
“It looks like he will soon fully understand the Ziwei Celestial Flame True Art’s fourth heavenly level. This disciple might indeed be able to cultivate the Ziwei Celestial Flame True Art to the highest realm.”
The Elder Ancestor of the Lin Clan was filled with hope for Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng was now shouldering the significant task of reviving the elegance of the Mount Taihua Goddess who had established the Taihua Holy Land in days past.
The Mount Taihua Goddess, once one of the Ancient Great Powers, dominated an era with her mastery of the Ziwei Celestial Flame True Art and the One Sword Across Ages. After the war in ancient times, she established the Taihua Holy Land, which has been passed down to this day.
The Taihua Holy Land has stood eternal. The complete Cultivation Techniques of the Ziwei Celestial Flame True Art and the One Sword Across Ages are naturally still kept in the Taihua Holy Land.
Unfortunately, possessing supreme Cultivation Techniques is of no use to the Holy Land.
It’s rare for cultivators to practice any one of these techniques to the Realm of Great Perfection.
Let alone striving to cultivate both techniques to the Realm of Great Perfection simultaneously.
If someone could do both, it would mean their potential is on par with the Ancient Mount Taihua Goddess, and their strength would permit them to establish a new Holy Land in the Immortal Realm.
Hence, it is not difficult to see the expectations the Elder Ancestor of the Lin Clan had for Lu Changsheng.

The heavenly phenomenon at the Taihua Holy Land lasted for a while, and when the phenomenon dissipated, Lu Changsheng had stepped into the fourth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm.
Lu Changsheng emerged from seclusion, refreshed and invigorated.
Lu Changsheng, with a burst of effort, broke through the bounds of the third level of the Immortal Emperor Realm and arrived at the fourth level. The transformation felt as though a great weight had been lifted from him, a Rebirth.
The fourth level of the Immortal Emperor Realm was much stronger and harder to kill than the third level.
However, there was still a considerable gap from becoming a Great Accomplishment Immortal Emperor.
Lu Changsheng did not relax his mindset, he still had a long way to go.
Lu Changsheng’s goal was to seek Longevity, to be immortal and indestructible.
A Great Accomplishment Immortal Emperor is still not to that level and can still be killed.
Even Lin Xuantong, the Elder Ancestor of the Lin Clan, and other extraordinary beings who have surpassed the Immortal Emperor Realm, were not yet immortal and indestructible and could potentially fall.
“Great news! Ku, who ranked first on the Qilin Ranking, has been removed from the list for exceeding fifty thousand years of cultivation. Now the Holy Son of our Taihua Holy Land has become the first on the Qilin Ranking!”
Not long after Lu Changsheng emerged from seclusion, good news came from outside.
The monstrous genius “Ku,” who ranked first, was no longer within the range of the Qilin Ranking due to the duration of his cultivation, so Lu Changsheng, who was second, naturally became the first!
After many years, the Taihua Holy Land finally had another person ranked first on the Qilin Ranking—a peerless talent of ancient rarity!
Being first on the Qilin Ranking!
This was enough for the Taihua Holy Land to boast for quite some time!
Yet, Lu Changsheng felt regret.
He had not had the chance to confront Ku, and unexpectedly became the first like this.
“Perhaps there will be an opportunity in the future,” he thought.
Lu Changsheng was still looking forward to meeting this mysterious prodigious genius.
Even Lin Xuantong, the Elder Ancestor of the Lin Clan, and others preferred not to mention the identity of this person for fear of entanglement with karma.
