Lu Changsheng Emerges from Seclusion

"Master is about to emerge from seclusion."

Seeing that the eight thousand miles of purple qi was about to dissipate, Lin Qingzhi, the Chief Grand Disciple Azure Cloud Peak, stopped cultivating the Taiqing Wuji Art and patiently waited for his master to emerge from seclusion.

Lu Changsheng's seclusion this time was unusual, lasting for three months.

"I have mastered the Seventh Layer the Taiqing Wuji Art."

During this period, Lin Qingzhi's cultivation improved, reaching the Dao Palace Realm Ninth Layer. He also cultivated the Taiqing Wuji Art, which Lu Changsheng Lin Qingzhi him, to the Seventh Layer.

Suddenly, Lin Qingzhi sensed a spatial fluctuation; the mortals of Tianyu City were being teleported to the peaks of Shushan Mountain by the Shushan Formation.

Lin Qingzhi knew this was Shushan's plan: to use Formation to send the people of Tianyu City to Shushan, and then activate the Mountain-Guarding Formation to deal with the Demon Lord.

Millions of people from Tianyu City were teleported to Shushan, and after surviving the calamity, they were overjoyed.

However, the Shushan Disciple looked worried.

The Uncle-Master Sect Leader, the Sect Master, and the Grand Supreme Elders chose to stay behind to save the people of Tianyu City, a decision that was fraught with peril.

Outside Shushan, the group from Shushan and the Rogue Cultivators from the Xia Kingdom fought and retreated, attempting to return to Shushan.

With the combined strength of the Shushan and the Rogue Cultivators of the Xia Kingdom, they could not stop the Desolate Province Demon Race and the Three Great Demon Sects.

"Master Xuantong!"

Si Yan witnessed Master Xuantong at the Void Refinement Realm, being suppressed by the Demon Lord's Ancient Cauldron. The earth sank, the ground shook, and a bottomless sinkhole appeared on the ground.

Master Xuantong, who had mastered the Indestructible Vajra Secret Art, actually perished.

Si Yan bit her thin lips. Master Xuantong and the others volunteered to cover their escape and delay the Demon Lord.

"Ah!"

A Grand Supreme Elders Shushan was bitten by the five-colored venomous snake of the Myriad Poison Valley Valley Master and died from the poison.

"Taiyin Sword Art!"

The peak master of Biyue Peak, no longer appearing old and decrepit, brandished a celestial sword and beheaded a peerless demon at the Void Refinement Realm.

The peak master of Biyue Peak is a ninth-level Void Refinement Realm expert and one of the strongest Supreme Elders of Shu Mountain.

Suddenly, a sharp claw appeared and slapped towards the peak master of Biyue Peak with great speed.

The peak master of Biyue Peak barely dodged the sharp claws, which, crackling with lightning, left a bloody gash on his shoulder.

The peak master of Biyue Peak suddenly looked at the demon clan expert who had injured him.

This is an old man with Horns on his head.

The peak master of Biyue Peak was greatly surprised. "You are a dragon in human form?!"

The Horn old man did not deny it.

"Master!"

Murong Shi and Chen Yao, two Shushan Disciples, were extremely anxious to see that even their powerful master had been injured by a powerful Demon Race.

"Shi'er, Yao'er, you two go back to Shushan first. I have a way to escape."

Although the peak master of Biyue Peak still looks like an old woman, her sword-wielding and wind-controlling skills faintly reveal her former glory.

She is the senior Senior Sister of Master Taiyuan, and vows to stand with Shushan through Taiyuan True Person.

"But Master..."

"Junior sister, trust Master. We'll only cause trouble if we stay here."

Murong Shi left with Chen Yao.

Murong Shi is at the first level of the Void Refinement Realm, while Chen Yao is still at the Nascent Soul Realm. Their master, a ninth-level Void Refinement Realm expert, couldn't handle this enemy. They wouldn't be of any help here and would only distract the peak master of Biyue Peak.

"The Demon Lord is too powerful, and the Three Great Demon Sects are no pushovers either. Shushan might be destroyed. I, Xiao Xiangdao, cannot die like this without knowing why. I still need to find the way to Changsheng."

Xiao Xiangdao followed Li Changye down the mountain. The trip to Shushan was extremely costly. Even the Uncle-Master Sect Leader were injured by the Demon Lord. Shushan was in imminent danger.

The people from Shushan and Xia Kingdom risked their lives to return to Shushan. The Elders and disciples who stayed Shushan immediately activated the Mountain-Guarding Formation, and a semi-transparent golden Barrier enveloped the entire Hanging Mountain.

The Demon Lord and the Three Great Demon Sects pursued them to Shushan, where they were blocked by the defensive Barrier formed by the Mountain-Guarding Formation.

The Myriad Poison Valley Valley Master seemed somewhat wary of the Mountain-Guarding Formation of Shushan: "According to the records of our Myriad Poison Valley, the Mountain-Guarding Formation Shushan is Peerless Grand Formation set up by the Shushan Dao Ancestor. Its power is boundless, and all powerful enemies who attack Shushan have never returned."

The Hehuan Sect Master and the Demon-Summoning Devil Palace Palace Master exchanged bewildered glances.

As leaders of the Demon Sects, they were extremely wary of the Mountain-Guarding Formation Shushan.

Since the founding of Shushan, no one has ever breached Shushan Mountain-Guarding Formation.

"Situ Kong has been injured by me, and many Elders of Shushan have suffered severe injuries. Shushan's Mountain-Guarding Formation is now unattended. What are you afraid of?"

The Demon Lord stood tall in the Firmament, gazing up at the floating Shushan. He summoned the Ancient Cauldron in his Palm, which absorbed the essence of the sun and moon and grew larger in the wind.

"That makes sense. Shushan has suffered heavy losses and is at its weakest point since Shushan founding. Once Shushan recovers its strength, especially once those Peerless Genius like Lu Changsheng, Li Changye, and Lu Qinglian grow up, Shushan will definitely retaliate fiercely."

After a brief discussion, the Three Great Demon Sects decided to join forces with the Demon Lord to attack the Mountain-Guarding Formation of Shushan.

Lu Changsheng's growth rate is too fast. As the sect leader of the Demon Sects, he certainly cannot allow Peerless Genius to grow up.

In the Shushan Main Hall, the people of Shushan and the Xia Kingdom, having escaped the pursuit of the Demon Lord and the Three Great Demon Sects, finally had a brief respite thanks to the Mountain-Guarding Formation that temporarily held off the powerful figures.

" With the Demon Lord's cultivation level so high, he has retaliated in kind, severely injuring my Primordial Spirit. I'm afraid he won't be able to activate the Formations used for attack."

There was a blood-red wound on Situ Kong's clothes.

As long as the Demon Lord lives, he will grow stronger with each battle.

The Demon Lord's cultivation level has now surpassed that of Situ Kong.

The Demon Lord possesses extraordinary talent, making him one of the most promising Peerless Genius in this world to the Ascension to the Immortal Realm.

Taiyuan True Person remained silent.

As the Shushan Sect Master, he was one of the few people who knew the true nature of the Shushan's Mountain-Guarding Formation.

The Shushan Mountain-Guarding Formation is actually divided into two formations: one for defense and the other for attacking enemies.

The large formation used to kill enemies is extremely terrifying.

However, with the current strength of Shushan, it is impossible to operate a second attack formation that poses a threat to the Demon Lord.

If, given the current state of Taiyuan True Person, Situ Kong, and the others, they forcibly activate the second magic array and fail to kill the Demon Lord, allowing Demon Lord to escape again, then the Demon Lord likely become the strongest being in this realm the next time he appears.

"Our Uncle-Master Sect Leader, Sect Master Senior Sister, and Sect Master are all injured, and several Grand Supreme Elders have perished. It seems our Shushan sect will meet the same fate as the Artifact Refinement Sect."

"Hopefully, the Barrier of our Shushan can hold back the Demon Lord and the Great Demon sects."

The Elders and disciples of Shushan whispered among themselves, filled with worry.

Boom!

Suddenly, the entire Shushan shook violently.

The Elders and disciples of Shushan emerged from the main hall and looked up at the sky.

The Ancient Cauldron summoned by the Demon Lord transformed into a thousand-foot-tall mountain, blotting out the sky and the sun.

The Demon Lord actually planned to use his Law Treasure to forcibly demolish Shushan!

Crazy!

The Elders and disciples of Shushan were horrified.

The Demon Lord is so domineering!

"Damn it, who's disturbing my secluded cultivation?"

At Azure Cloud Peak, Lu Changsheng opened his eyes.

He was awakened by the huge commotion caused by the Demon Lord.

Before going into seclusion, Lu Changsheng informed Taiyuan True Person and several disciples in advance to avoid being interrupted during his breakthrough.

The Demon Lord used his Law Treasure to bombard the Shushan Barrier, almost interrupting Lu Changsheng's breakthrough.

"Fortunately, I am more skilled. Before being interrupted, Taiqing Wuji Art Tenth Layer and achieved great perfection. It's time to emerge from seclusion."
