The Last Top-Grade Immortal Artifact Fragment
"The Barrier around Mount Shu has been breached, and Master hasn't emerged from seclusion yet. What should we do? Second Senior Sister is still cultivating on Fire Lotus Peak..."
On Azure Cloud Peak, Chen Xiaoyao saw that the Barrier above his head had been shattered by the Demon Lord's Law Treasure, while his master was still calmly cultivating, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
"The Heavenly Gods and Devils Phenomenon have disappeared, and Master's body-refining technique has been perfected. He will soon emerge from seclusion."
Mo Huazhi carried several scrolls of divine paper on his back, held Spirit Brush in his hand, and had a bamboo flute tucked into his waistband.
At this critical juncture for the survival of Mount Shu, the disciples of Azure Cloud Peak have prepared Law Treasures, as well as the Medicinal Pills and Talisman bestowed upon them by their master, ready to join the battle at any time.
"Qingzhi, come to my cave abode."
"Zhi'er, go to Fire Lotus Peak and call your Senior Sister back."
Lu Changsheng's voice rang out, and the disciples were delighted.
Their master was constantly cultivating. When Mount Shu was in dire need, their master finally mastered his divine skills and emerged from seclusion.
The Spirit Brush in Mo Huazhi's hand shrunk to the size of a cloud. Mo Huazhi sat on it sideways, and the Spirit Brush transformed into a streak of light and flew away.
Lin Qingzhi then arrived at the cave abode.
Lu Changsheng's Nine-Turn Divine Body had reached its peak, and just by standing there, he exerted an immense sense of pressure on Lin Qingzhi.
The Nine-Turn Divine Body is comparable to Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact.
"Master, the Demon Lord has breached the Mount Shu's great formation, and Mount Shu is in imminent danger. We should go to its aid immediately."
"I understand. Before you depart, I will bestow upon you five more Flying Swords to perfect your Heavenly Gang Sword Formation."
Lu Changsheng took out five Flying Swords.
For the past ten years, Lu Changsheng has persisted in teaching disciples. Excluding the time he spent in seclusion, he could obtain an Immortal Artifact on average every two or three months. Most of them were Low-Grade Immortal Artifacts, and very few were Middle-Grade Immortal Artifacts. He never managed to obtain Three Top-Grade Immortal Artifact Fragments.
Now that the Demon Lord has attacked, Lu Changsheng, having refined the Nine-Turn Divine Body, has realized that the High Antiquity Treasure the Demon Lord used to break the Mount Shu Barrier is a Top-Grade Immortal Artifact. Lu Changsheng is not absolutely confident in defeating the Demon Lord.
Lu Changsheng wanted to try one last time.
There are still five opportunities to Disciple-Teaching Rebate today.
Although the chances were slim, Lu Changsheng still wanted to try his luck.
Success or failure, there's no loss.
Lin Qingzhi was puzzled: why would his master still take on disciples when a formidable enemy was at hand?
Even if Lin Qingzhi had five more Innate Spirit Treasures, with his Dao Palace Realm cultivation, he still wouldn't be able to reverse the situation.
Nevertheless, Lin Qingzhi accepted all of his master's gifts.

Ding! 1 chance to get Immortal Artifact this month; 0 chances to get Immortal Artifact remaining this month.
Another Immortal Artifact.
However, the low-grade Immortal Sword is of little help to Lu Changsheng now; it only slightly enhances the power of the Great Thousand Sword Array.
Ding! You have bestowed upon your disciple Lin Qingzhong a mid-grade innate spiritual treasure, the "Divine Wood Sword," and have received a reward of 300,000 times the initial investment: a high-grade immortal artifact fragment.
Top-Grade Immortal Artifact Fragments: Collect Three Top-Grade Immortal Artifact Fragments to synthesize one Top-Grade Immortal Artifact.
"Um?!
Lu Changsheng's expression became quite interesting.
Unexpectedly, the last opportunity to teach a disciple resulted in the return of the last Top-Grade Immortal Artifact Fragment!
I've finally collected Three Top-Grade Immortal Artifact Fragments!
In the Mount Shu Main Hall, overwhelming Demon Qi and Devil Qi descended. The Elders and disciples of the Five Great Sects activated their Cultivation Method, unleashing their multicolored Law Treasures as they attacked with all their might.
Situ Kong, Taiyuan Zhenren, Li Changye, the peak master of Biyue Peak, the peak master of Chaoyuan Peak, and other powerful figures from Shushan activated the Taiqing Wuji Gong, causing purple qi to rise from the east.
The Grand Supreme Elders of the Ask Immortal Pavilion activated the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Art, and a chilling aura spread.
"Amitabha."
The Elders of Boundless Temple clasped their hands together, and presented a variety of the Buddhist Sect Law Treasures, including Prayer Beads, Treasure Pagodas, Treasure Trees, Treasure Bottle, Treasure Bells, radiating boundless Buddha Light.
The crowd at Crouching Dragon Temple unleashed their Formation Banners and set up numerous magical formations.
The Martial Dao Alliance's Body Tempering experts swallowed Medicinal Pills, reaching peak condition and ready to strike and kill powerful enemies at any moment.
"Unexpectedly, these few Demon not only prompted the Five Great Sects to take action, but the Five Great Sects may not even have a chance of winning."
The late emperor of the Xia Kingdom led the Xia Kingdom's Rogue Cultivator forces with the Five Great Sects. However, the oppressive aura of the Demon Lord and the Three Great Demon Sects sect leaders made even a cultivator at the Eighth Layer of the Void Refinement Realm feel despair.
"Taiyuan, obediently hand over your little disciple, or I'll tear him to pieces. Don't think you can hide him and I won't find him."
The Hehuan Sect Master, wielding Middle-Grade Immortal Artifact and relying on the oppressive aura of the Demon Lord, looked down upon the Mount Shu people.
Lu Changsheng killed his only son, and the Hehuan Sect Master hated Lu Changsheng to the core.
When the Hehuan Sect Master saw that Lu Changsheng was not there, he assumed that Taiyuan True Person had deliberately hidden Lu Changsheng.
According to Taiyuan True Person's original plan, he did intend to arrange for Lu Changsheng to leave Mount Shu and seek refuge in Other Provinces.
Although Mount Shu has been established for hundreds of thousands of years and has not had much contact with Sects in Other Provinces, it is not entirely without contact either.
However, Lu Changsheng did not choose to leave Mount Shu.
"Our Mount Shu will not hand over any of our disciples."
Master Taiyuan activated the Taiqing Wuji Gong, and together with Situ Kong, the peak master of Biyue Peak, the peak master of Chaoyuan Peak, and other powerful figures from Shushan, secretly activated the second protective formation of Shushan.
The defensive Barrier protecting Mount Shu is merely a superficial Mountain-Guarding Formation.
The true grand formation of Mount Shu is located on the Mount Shu Main Peak.
"Fellow Daoists, please Guardian us as we activate the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation to slay the Demon Lord."
Taiyuan True Person secretly transmitted his voice to the Grand Supreme Elders of the Five Great Sects.
"The Barrier outside Mount Shu is not actually the true Mountain-Guarding Formation Mount Shu?"
Su Qian'er, Yu Xuanji, Grandmaster Chen, and High Person Wuxiang alarmed.
Even though they were the Sect Master, they didn't know that Mount Shu had two Mountain-Guarding Formations, and the real killing move was the second Mountain-Guarding Divine Formation.
"Leave it to us."
The four Sect Masters were all intelligent people. After realizing that Mount Shu still had trump cards up its sleeve, they volunteered to Guardian the Mount Shu people.
The Grand Supreme Elders of each sect unleashed their various Immortal Artifacts, each keeping a close eye on their opponent.
"Taiyuan, activate the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation."
"Good."
Situ Kong and Taiyuan True Person received Ninth-Rank Immortal Pill from Lu Changsheng, and their injuries were restored to about 70-80%, allowing them to barely activate the Mount Shu Sect's protective formation.
The two activated the Taiqing Wuji Art, channeling purple qi into the ground beneath the Mount Shu Main Peak.
Suddenly, the Myriad Poison Valley Valley Master sensed something and exclaimed in alarm, "Oh no! Mount Shu is about to activate its true killing formation!"
