You Are Mount Shu's Hope

"Several hundred people?!"

Ye Wen and the Elders and disciples of the Martial Dao Alliance were all greatly shocked and stunned by Grandmaster Chen's words.

Mount Shu, the largest Sects in Xia Province, has only produced a dozen or so unparalleled Peerless Genius Ascension to the Immortal Realm in the hundreds of thousands of years of recorded history.

The number of people from the Martial Dao Alliance Ascension to the Immortal Realm was even fewer than that from Mount Shu, only seven or eight.

The number of Peerless Genius ascended to Ascension, as recorded by the Stars Pavilion, is an astonishing several hundred!

Just how profound is the Stars Pavilion's foundation to cultivate so many Peerless Genius?

"This is only the number of people on record. No one knows how many outstanding individuals Ascension to the Immortal Realm since the founding of the Stars Pavilion. The Stars Pavilion's foundation is unfathomable, which is why it firmly holds the position of the number one Sects in this realm. Therefore, the Central Continent Conference has always been hosted by the Stars Pavilion, and the Stars Pavilion also regards the Central Continent Conference as an opportunity to establish its prestige."

Grandmaster Chen recounted in detail the secrets that even many of the Martial Dao Alliance Elders and disciples were unaware of.

Ye Wen in confusion, "Since this is a grand event held by the Stars Pavilion to establish its authority, why did our Martial Dao Alliance accept the invitation from the Stars Pavilion?"

"As the Sects Stars Pavilion this realm, if our Martial Dao Alliance doesn't accept the invitation, we'll inevitably offend the Stars Pavilion and leave behind hidden dangers. Furthermore, participating in the Central Continent Conference will allow us to witness the various supernatural Divine Abilities of powerful figures from Other Provinces' Sects, broadening our experience. For our Martial Dao Alliance, it wouldn't be a significant loss. It just so happens that my cultivation level has only just entered the Dao Integration Realm at this Central Continent Conference, so our Martial Dao Alliance has no hope. But that kid from Mount Shu..."

Grandmaster Chen knew that the Central Continent Conference Gathering was a gathering of hidden talents, including many powerful individuals who had Great Completion of the Dao Integration Realm.

Even among experts who Great Completion of the Dao Integration Realm, the combat power they unleash varies due to differences in cultivation Cultivation Method and combat experience.

With his cultivation level having just entered the Dao Integration Realm, Grandmaster Chen Grandmaster Chen prepared to be at the bottom.

After all, the Sects participating in the Central Continent Conference are all powerful Sects ranked among the top in their respective states. Only Five Great Sects from Xia Province are qualified to attend: Mount Shu, Boundless Temple, Martial Dao Alliance, Crouching Dragon Temple, and Ask Immortal Pavilion.

Grandmaster Chen completely gave up, since as long as he was prepared to be at the bottom, he had no burden.

But Grandmaster Chen thought of Lu Changsheng, who would succeed Taiyuan True Person as the Lu Changsheng of the Mount Shu Sect Master.

During the Calamity of Mount Shu, Lu Changsheng turned the tide and saved the collapsing empire. It was also thanks to Lu Changsheng that he exchanged the "Hundredfold Primordial Force" for the "Eight Extremities Fist" with Grandmaster Chen, which allowed Grandmaster Chen, who had cultivated the Hundredfold Primordial Force," to successfully pass through the Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation. Grandmaster Chen greatly admired this junior.

"Taiyuan, so you were so eager to hand over the position of Mount Shu Sect Master to your disciple because you wanted him to represent Mount Shu in the battle. Although you were once Mount Shu's number one genius, given time, you could eventually become Peak of the Dao Integration Realm expert. However, the timing of this Central Continent Conference is unfavorable to the Sects of Xia Province. Our Sects in Xia Province are facing a talent shortage and are not at their peak. That's why you pinned your hopes on your young disciple whose cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds."

Grandmaster Chen suddenly struck out with his palm, realizing the intention of Taiyuan True Person.

Taiyuan True Person lived up to his reputation as the most talented figure of the previous generation of Mount Shu, for he had even foreseen this point in advance.

"So, does that mean Su Qian'er of the Ask Immortal Pavilion relinquished the position of sect Sect Master to her disciple Xia Ningxue for the same reason? You two are far too cunning. It's a pity I don't have such a prodigious disciple; I'll have to shoulder the burden myself..."

Grandmaster Chen figured out the connection and was actually a little envious.

At the last moment, Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue defeated the Demon Lord with the Holy Spirit Swordsmanship, ending the Calamity in Xia Province. They can be called the Peerless Genius of Xia Province.

Although Ye Wen, the Eldest Disciple of the Martial Dao Alliance, also possessed the potential to become Dao Integration Realm expert, he was ultimately inferior to Lu Changsheng, who had Innate Dao Body, and Xia Ningxue, who Spirit Wa Saint Body.

Grandmaster Chen had to personally take the stage.

At the Ask Immortal Pavilion, Xia Ningxue, the newly appointed pavilion master, accepted the invitation from the Stars Pavilion.

The three Elders of the Stars Pavilion, seeing that Xia Ningxue was only at the Ninth Layer of the Void Refinement Realm and hadn't even reached the Dao Integration Realm, were incredibly arrogant.

Why are the major Sects in Xia Province so weak? Don't they have a single strong expert?

"I will attend the Central Continent Conference on time. Someone, see the guest out."

Xia Ningxue's face remained icy. Seeing the arrogant expressions of the Stars Pavilion Elders, she didn't engage in further conversation, focusing instead on the matter at hand, and ordered them to see the guests out.

The Green-Robed Woman was knowledgeable and experienced; she vaguely sensed that Xia Ningxue's physique and the Immortal Sword behind her were extraordinary.

The Immortal Ask Immortal Pavilion exudes the aura of the Dao Integration Realm expert, yet it appoints an Elder at the Ninth Layer of the Void Refinement Realm as its pavilion master; there must be more to the story.

Nevertheless, the Green-Robed Woman still needed to travel with several Elders of the Stars Pavilion to Other Provinces to inform other Sects, so it was inconvenient for her to stay at Misty Peak for long.

"The talents of this generation in Xia Province are truly lacking. I hope that the Sects in Luzhou can produce a master of the Great Completion of the Dao Integration Realm, otherwise this Central Continent Conference will be too boring."

"Yeah yeah."

The Elders of the Stars Pavilion chatted as they flew away on their swords.

As Su Qian'er, the Pavilion Master of Ask Immortal Pavilion, watched the Elders of the Stars Pavilion leave, her white robes fluttering, a slight smile playing on her lips, "By the time of the Central Continent Conference, my disciple will surely become famous throughout the world. At that time, your Stars Pavilion might even suffer a major setback."

Mount Shu, Myriad Sword Peak.

After accepting the invitation from the Stars Pavilion, Lu Changsheng came to seek advice from Taiyuan True Person and Situ Kong.

Taiyuan True Person and Situ Kong have lived for thousands of years and are very knowledgeable; they should know the details of the Stars Pavilion.

"The Stars Pavilion is incredibly powerful, having produced hundreds of powerful figures Ascension to the Immortal Realm, leaving behind an astonishing legacy. Our Mount Shu only had Dao Ancestor Taiqing True Person and the Ninth Sect Master, Azure Lotus Fairy, who gained fame at the Central Continent Conference. After Azure Lotus Fairy, we've fallen to a mediocre position."

"Changsheng, as the Mount Shu Sect Master, this Central Continent Conference depends on you."

Taiyuan True Person placed his hand on Lu Changsheng's left shoulder with a solemn expression.

Grandmaster Uncle Situ Kong also came over and placed his hand on Lu Changsheng's right shoulder. "Even if I, your grandmaster uncle, represented our Mount Shu in the Central Continent Conference, I wouldn't be able to win a prize. Keep going, you are the hope of our Mount Shu."

Why did Lu Changsheng feel like he'd been tricked into becoming the twenty-eighth Sect Master of the Mount Shu Sect?

At this time, there are still more than a hundred years until the Central Province Gathering. At that time, I will be able to spar with the strongest group of cultivators in this world. I don't know how much my cultivation will improve in more than a hundred years.

According to the descriptions of Taiyuan True Person and Situ Kong, the Stars Pavilion is a behemoth even larger than Mount Shu, and may even have Peak of the Dao Integration Realm expert in charge.

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath. "I'll do my best, but I can't guarantee anything."

What a joke! Even Lu Changsheng isn't confident he can reach the Peak of the Dao Integration Realm within a hundred years.
