“Ji Su, do you really mean to stand against me as an enemy? The last time we fought was in ancient times, and you were defeated by me.”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable stared at this Great Power of the Demon Race, seeming quite wary of her.
The Great Power of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox Clan is not easy to deal with.

“Indeed, my cultivation is not as high as yours, but you will also pay a heavy price. For a junior’s sake, we need not engage in a life-or-death struggle.”
“This boy forced my daughter to lay down a blood curse, becoming his servant. How can I let him go?”
“Boy, you…”
The Great Power of the Heavenly Fox Clan, Ji Su, looked at Lu Changsheng with eyes full of shock.
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable’s Devouring Heavenly Demon Body had reached Great Accomplishment; his Demonic Might was unmatched. Having survived two ancient battles, he had fought throughout the Three Realms, and many Great Experts from the Three Realms had been defeated by him.
Lu Changsheng actually dared to make the daughter of the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable his servant?
Has this boy lost his mind?
Lu Changsheng gave a wry smile, “Senior, it was the other party who wanted to use a blood curse to enslave me, so I was forced to find a way to counterattack, returning tooth for tooth. It wasn’t my intention to cause trouble.”
“I see,” Ji Su was not as shocked anymore, “Hallucinatory, you heard as well. It was your daughter who caused the trouble first. Both in emotion and in reason, you should let him go.”
“In the Demon Realm, I am the reason.”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable channeled his Demonic Cultivation Skills, his Demonic Might overshadowing the Great Power of the Demon Race.
“People from the Demon Realm really are unreasonable. I always disliked fighting with your kind.”
Ji Su knew that a battle was inevitable. Behind her, nine fox tails appeared, ready to reveal her true form as part of the Demon Race at any moment to confront the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable.
“The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable really is absurdly strong.”
Lu Changsheng, seeing the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable use the Divine Skill One Qi Transforms Three Purities, planning to suppress both the Great Elder of the Candle Dragon Clan and the Great Power of the Heavenly Fox Clan at the same time, inwardly marveled at his power.
“Hold on.”
Another voice sounded.
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable’s brow furrowed even more tightly.
Another expert?
He merely wanted to eradicate Lu Changsheng, a junior at the Immortal Emperor Realm, yet one after another, various Great Experts kept arriving.
Lin Xuantong, Lin Qinghan, and the Ancient Ancestor from Mount Taihua’s Holy Land arrived at the same time, confronting the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable.
“People from Mount Taihua?”
The Great Power of the Candle Dragon Clan and the Great Power of the Heavenly Fox Clan looked at the appeared Ancient Ancestor from Mount Taihua’s Holy Land in unison.
“Is it you?”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable dissipated his Demonic Cultivation Skills, and the rolling Demonic Qi returned to his body.
Lin Xuantong and Lin Qinghan, seeing Lu Changsheng safe and sound, felt much relieved.
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable sized up the three Great Experts: “This little devil’s connections are wider than I imagined; even you have been startled into action.”
The Ancient Ancestor of Mount Taihua faced the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable and produced a jade pendant: “Do you still remember this object?”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable’s pupils shrank, his tone trembling slightly: “How did this come into your hands?”
“In consideration of my sister’s old affection, let us drop this matter here. What say you?”
“Today I will let you all off. However, my two treasures you will need to return.”
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable canceled the Divine Skill One Qi Transforms Three Purities. He wanted his Eternal Dream Bell and Ruthless Water Fire Bottle, two Demonic Dao treasures, back.
As for other treasures of the Demon Realm plundered by Lu Changsheng, the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable did not care for them.
The Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable waved his sleeve, a black aura enshrouding and whisking away Dantai Meng, and then he disappeared.
The tense spirits of the Great Powers of the Candle Dragon Clan and the Heavenly Fox Clan also relaxed.
If the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable produced two avatars, even with the three Great Experts working together, they might not be able to defeat him.
The Ancient Ancestor of Mount Taihua retrieved the jade pendant, reminiscing about the past with a long sigh.
Lin Xuantong asked respectfully: “Ancestor, who is your sister? Why would the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable back down upon hearing of her?”
The Ancient Ancestor of Mount Taihua slowly said: “She is the Mount Taihua Goddess who established the Mount Taihua Holy Land. And that jade pendant is her token of identity.”
“What?!”
Lin Xuantong was shaken.
This Ancient Ancestor was actually the younger sister of the Mount Taihua Goddess!
“`
No wonder this Ancestor was able to cultivate to the realm of everlasting life and had his words respected without question in the holy land of Mount Taihua.
After the fall of the Mount Taihua Goddess, this Ancestor became the person of the highest generation on Mount Taihua.
“The matter of that year was quite complicated. It’s of no use for you juniors to know. Since you have rescued someone, you should hurry back. This lad has some ability; he escaped from the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Palace, and that’s the reason we could rescue people. Otherwise, the other Demon Lords would not have shown me any respect,”
The Ancestor of Mount Taihua held Lu Changsheng in high regard and then led the group back to the Immortal Realm.
Ji Su of the Heavenly Fox Clan and Yan Feng of the Candle Dragon Clan, two great powers of the Demon Race, were secretly communicating with the Mount Taihua Ancestor through voice transmissions.
Among these individuals, it turned out that Yan Feng of the Candle Dragon Clan was the youngest, followed by the Mount Taihua Ancestor, with the stunningly beautiful Ji Su being the oldest.
With the protection of the three great experts, Lu Changsheng safely passed through the Nine Nether Abyss and returned to the Immortal Realm side.
The Nine Nether Abyss is where temporal rifts converge, filled with spatial cracks, and it even leads to the Netherworld.
But the Netherworld is the place where souls return; without special divine skills, entering the Netherworld is merely rushing to one’s demise.
Even Lu Changsheng himself had not expected that after being captured in the Demon Realm, his many disciples would display their divine skills and summon reinforcements.
“Lu Changsheng is here. I’d like to thank the seniors for stepping in to rescue me.”
“Kid, I, Old Dragon, took a risk to act for the sake of our Dragon Clan Princess. You’d better treat the Princess well in the future,”
“You saved my granddaughter; naturally, I couldn’t just sit by and do nothing.”
The two Demon Race great powers took a liking to this humble and polite junior.
At the same time, they admired Lu Changsheng’s boldness.
A junior at the Immortal Emperor Realm actually escaped from the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Palace and even caused the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable to suffer a loss.
This boldness surpassed that of many strong warriors at the Divine King Realm.
“Once we return to Mount Taihua, as your master, I will bestow upon you a protective treasure to prevent you from suffering like this again,”
Lin Xuantong breathed a sigh of relief having rescued his disciple without any dangers, and his demeanor noticeably relaxed.
The Holy Land of Mount Taihua had poured resources into cultivating Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan; it would have been a severe loss to Mount Taihua should they have perished before growing up.
“This disciple will certainly be more careful in the future,”
After being secretly plotted against by Dantai Meng, Lu Changsheng knew he had to be even more cautious in the future.
Ji Su took Ji Xuan back to the Demon Realm, and Yan Feng took Huo Zhang back to the Nether Sea.
Lu Changsheng and his group returned to Mount Taihua.
Dugu Aotian was stunned to learn that his mother, Fairy Yuehua, had also taken action to save Lu Changsheng en route, “Is she all right?”
“Your mother hopes that you will follow the right path; you must not disappoint her intentions,”
“This disciple shall keep this in mind,”
Dugu Aotian clenched his fists; moving forward, he had to cultivate even more diligently to be able to bring his mother out of the Demon Realm.
“For the next one hundred thousand years, I will not go anywhere else but stay and cultivate on Mount Taihua. Even if the people of Mount Shu seek an audience, I will only meet them on Mount Taihua; this should deter anyone from daring to capture me,”
Lu Changsheng decided to cultivate in seclusion on Mount Taihua.
The next time, even if acquaintances from Mount Shu seek an audience, Lu Changsheng would arrange the meetings to take place on Mount Taihua.
Mount Taihua possesses a formation capable of defending the holy land, and few would dare to trespass rashly onto Mount Taihua.
Daoist Yuxuan, who had been released by Lu Changsheng, returned to Accumulated Thunder Mountain to cultivate.
Xia Ningxue temporarily resided at Yuntai Peak to comprehend swordsmanship.
After this incident, Dantai Meng was exiled by the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable to the Eternal Dream Devil Realm as a punishment and became much more subdued, no longer causing trouble for Lu Changsheng.
As spring turned to autumn, Grandmaster Taixu, as usual, recruited disciples for Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm.
Lu Changsheng was indebted to Grandmaster Taixu, who planned to develop Mount Shu well as an external support.
Many talents from the Immortal Realm, inspired by the name, came to participate in Mount Shu’s selection process.
“Acting Sect Leader, this disciple wishes to see Mount Shu’s twenty-eighth Sect Leader, Real Person Longevity.”
An Earth Immortal female disciple who had joined Mount Shu voiced her request to Grandmaster Taixu.
“Are you from Mount Shu in the Mortal Realm?”
Seeing that the girl had mentioned Lu Changsheng as the twenty-eighth Sect Leader of Mount Shu, Grandmaster Taixu knew she must be a disciple who had ascended from the Mortal Realm.
“My ancestor had the fortune of meeting Real Person Longevity a few times. Therefore, I wish to behold his true countenance.”
“Who was your ancestor?”
“The Second Princess of Xia Kingdom, Si Yan.”
