"Young Master, with your talent to the Seventh Layer of the Void Refinement Realm in less than three hundred years of cultivation, defeating all the geniuses and marrying the daughter of the Stars Pavilion is undoubtedly a sure thing."
"Hehe, the Stars Pavilion Master only has one daughter. Once he Ascension to the Immortal Realm, the young master might even be able to take over the Stars Pavilion in the future. At that time, if our Dragon-Tiger Sect merges with the Stars Pavilion, we might even be able to sweep across this realm."
The Elders of the Dragon-Tiger Sect fawned over their Dragon-Tiger Sect Young Master like stars surrounding the moon, doing their utmost to flatter him.
Once the Dragon-Tiger Sect and the Stars Pavilion form a marriage alliance, the Dragon-Tiger Sect Young Master may become the most powerful being in this world.
Hearing a group of Elders, even Grand Supreme Elders at the Dao Integration Realm, flattering him, the Dragon-Tiger Sect Young Master couldn't help but feel flattered.
Some people are born in Rome, and he is that person.
Suddenly, an Elder from the Dragon-Tiger Sect said, "Young Master, look, isn't that Tang Ling’er from the Stars Pavilion? Why is she with a strange man?"
The Dragon-Tiger Sect Young Master looked in the direction the Elder had indicated and saw a woman with an oval face, a round nose, and wearing Indigo Immortal Skirt introducing the architecture of the Stars Pavilion to a man.
The Dragon-Tiger Sect Young Master's face gradually turned ashen.
Who is Tang Ling’er to act as a guide for someone else?
If Tang Ling’er hadn't volunteered...
Moreover, Chen Xiaoyao doesn't seem to be very old, and he's chatting and laughing with Tang Ling’er.
"Miss Tang, may I ask who this talented young man is?"
The Dragon-Tiger Sect Young Master Dragon-Tiger Sect, accompanied by a group of Elders, blocked Tang Ling’er, Chen Xiaoyao, and the Green-Robed Woman, speaking in an unpleasant tone.
He had already considered Tang Ling’er as his future dao companion. If she were to be snatched away by some pretty boy who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, where would he, as the young sect leader of the Dragon-Tiger Sect, put his face?
"Hmph, none of your business."
Tang Ling’er ignored the young sect leader of the Dragon-Tiger Sect.
The Green-Robed Woman transmitted her voice to Chen Xiaoyao: "This person is Zhang Sheng of the Dragon-Tiger Sect, the second Sects in Central Province, and a rising star among the younger generation in Central Province. Try not to provoke him."
The woman in green noticed that Tang Ling'er had feelings for Shen Xiaoyao, but she didn't want Shen Xiaoyao to offend Zhang Sheng, the young master of the Dragon Tiger Sect, because of this.
The Dragon-Tiger Sect is also an ancient Sects in the Central Province, second only to the Stars Pavilion in terms of its foundation.
Although the Stars Pavilion is stronger than the Dragon-Tiger Sect overall, it generally will not engage in a life-or-death struggle with the Dragon-Tiger Sect.
The Stars Pavilion, Dragon-Tiger Sect, and Ten Thousand Swords Manor, these three major Sects of Central Province, have formed a delicate balance.
In the eyes of the Green-Robed Woman, the strength of Shushan was far inferior to that of the Dragon-Tiger Sect. If the Dragon-Tiger Sect were to secretly attack Shushan would be in grave danger.
Seeing that Tang Ling’er ignored him, Zhang Sheng transferred his anger to Chen Xiaoyao, and said sarcastically, "A friend has come from afar. As the young sect leader of the Dragon-Tiger Sect in Central Province, how can I not treat him well? Young brother, which sect are you from?"
"I am Shushan Disciple."
Knowing that the Central Continent Conference was about to begin, Chen Xiaoyao could no longer hide his origins and simply admitted it openly.
Zhang Sheng said sinisterly, "Shushan? I have a vague impression of them. They've only produced two or three Peerless Genius. In recent Central Continent Conference, Shushan has become virtually invisible. I've heard they don't even have many experts at the Dao Integration Realm anymore. Your Shushan's participation in this Central Continent Conference is probably just to broaden your horizons. That's true, your people from Shushan have certainly had their eyes opened in our Central Province. Anyway, the Shushan Sect Master is destined to be eliminated in the first round."... Chen Xiaoyao clenched his fists. The other party could mock him, but he couldn't mock his master. "My master will definitely achieve a ranking."
"Even our Dragon-Tiger Sect's Grand Supreme Elders is no match for the Shushan Sect Master, let alone my father."
Zhang Sheng saw that Chen Xiaoyao was protecting his master, so he took the initiative to mock Lu Changsheng.
Chen Xiaoyao's anger was completely ignited.
Even though the other party was the young master of the Dragon-Tiger Sect, Chen Xiaoyao was not afraid of trouble.
Seeing that Chen Xiaoyao was angry because his master was mocked by Zhang Sheng, Tang Ling’er took Chen Xiaoyao's arm and said, "I'll take you to see the True Body the Stars Pavilion. Don't pay any attention to him."
Tang Ling’er's words calmed Chen Xiaoyao down a bit.
The Central Continent Conference will begin soon, so it's best to avoid causing trouble for your master at this time.
"Ling'er..."
Seeing Tang Ling’er getting close to Chen Xiaoyao, Zhang Sheng was consumed by jealousy. He led the Dragon-Tiger Sect members to chase after them, but was stopped by the Green-Robed Woman.
"This area ahead is the sacred grounds of our Stars Pavilion. Even if you are the young sect master of the Dragon-Tiger Sect, you are not allowed to enter."
"Hateful..."
Zhang Sheng gritted his teeth.
Tang Ling’er is so kind to someone she's only known for a short time; she even took her to visit the True Body Pavilion of the Stars Pavilion.
"Young Sect Master, what should we do next?"
"I will completely cripple this person at the Central Continent Conference, rendering him useless. Let's see if Ling'er will still be interested in him then."
Zhang Sheng's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
The Central Continent Conference cannot easily kill the opponent, otherwise it will easily create enmity. However, as long as Zhang Sheng controls the degree, he can completely destroy Chen Xiaoyao's cultivation and turn Chen Xiaoyao into a mortal.
Compared to the long lifespan of Xiuzhenzhe at the Dao Integration Realm, mortals are like ants, turning into a handful of dust in the blink of an eye.
Given his status as the young sect leader of the Dragon-Tiger Sect, even if he Chen Xiaoyao, the Shushan sect would likely not dare to offend the Dragon-Tiger Sect.
Above the Stars Pavilion, a middle-aged couple looked down, their gazes sharp as swords, piercing through the sea of clouds swirling around the Stars Pavilion, witnessing the scene unfolding below.
"Strange? When did Ling'er get to know that boy?"
The Stars Pavilion Master was puzzled.
He never knew that his daughter had met a young man from out of town.
The Central Province Sects is filled with numerous sects, with the former being numerous and, to be honest, not looking up to Xiuzhenzhe from Other Provinces.
The stunningly beautiful woman beside the Stars Pavilion Master chided, "You're only concerned with cultivation and consolidating your realm, and you never care about your daughter. Last time, Ling'er went to the Star Immortal Emperor's cave abode and inherited the Pure Yin Body at the Star Tower. There was another person who also received an inheritance at that time, who should have obtained the Pure Yang Body. That person is most likely the boy who was playing with Ling'er down below."
"Pure Yang Body?"
The Stars Pavilion Master's eyes lit up.
Originally, the son-in-law he approved of was Zhang Sheng of the Dragon-Tiger Sect.
Among the outstanding young generation in Central Province, Zhang Sheng ranks first in cultivation level. His aptitude is similar to Tang Ling’er's, and he has a very high probability of the Ascension to the Immortal Realm in the future. He is also the young sect leader of the second Sects in Central Province, holding a lofty position.
However, the appearance of Chen Xiaoyao, who possessed a Pure Yang Body, added another candidate to the Stars Pavilion Master's list of potential sons-in-law.
The Pure Yang Body and the Pure Yin Body are a match made in heaven, beneficial to their cultivation... The beautiful woman said, "According to ancient records, the Pure Yang Body and the Pure Yin Body are superior Special Physiques. Once these two physiques are fully developed, they complement each other, and their power is unimaginable. Since Ling'er and this boy were able to obtain two different inheritances in the Star Tower, it must be a kind of fate."
The Stars Pavilion Master understood his wife's meaning. "What is the background of this child?"
"Listen, this young man was originally an ordinary person from Xiazhou. He was later taken in as a disciple by the Shushan Sect Master. By fortuitous opportunity, he obtained the Pure Yang Body, and his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds ever since."
"A mortal, from Shushan... his background is somewhat lacking. I plan to hold a martial arts Central Continent Conference, and then I'll see for myself what makes him extraordinary."
The day before the Central Continent Conference began, at the place where the Shushan group was staying, Lu Changsheng's aura underwent a tremendous change, and his momentum surged!
Lu Changsheng opened his eyes, his gaze as vast as the stars.
He finally broke through from the peak of the Fifth Layer of the Dao Integration Realm Sixth Layer of the Dao Integration Realm before the Central Continent Conference began!
Among the powerful Sects in various states, those at the Fifth Layer of the Dao Integration Realm are considered to be at a mid-level.
However, Lu Changsheng possesses a supreme treasure and has cultivated various Immortal Stage Cultivation Method, enabling him to unleash combat power surpassing the Sixth Layer of the Dao Integration Realm.
"Xia Ningxue has also broken through?"
Lu Changsheng discovered that because he Disciple-Teaching Rebate, and the Dual Cultivation System had also returned some of its cultivation to Xia Ningxue also temporarily broke through, advancing from the Fourth Layer of the Dao Integration Realm Fifth Layer of the Dao Integration Realm.
Xia Ningxue is quite strong and has the ability to fight against opponents of higher levels.
Ask Immortal Pavilion's performance in previous Central Continent Conference was not as good as that of Shushan. Only Qingxia Immortal Maiden made it into the Top Eight in the Central Continent Conference. As for the Peerless Genius who founded Ask Immortal Pavilion, he did not participate in the Central Continent Conference.
The Ask Immortal Pavilion rarely produces Peerless Genius of Xia Ningxue's caliber, so they place high hopes on her.
This world is teeming with powerful individuals; even making it into the top thirty-two is enough to prove Sects's strength.
When Lu Changsheng arrived at the Stars Pavilion, he only saw two experts at the Great Completion of the Dao Integration Realm: Sun Jian from the Ten Thousand Swords Manor and Wu Yue from the Great Wu Dynasty.
This does not include the Stars Pavilion Master and the Dragon-Tiger Sect Master.
There are even more Valley Masters of Blazing Fire Valley and Sect Masters of the Profound Saber Sect at the Fifth Layer of the Dao Integration Realm.
Before the Central Continent Conference began, Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue were both working hard to improve their cultivation and comprehend the Sword Dao.
As for Yu Xuanji, Grandmaster Chen, High Person Wuxiang, Penglai Fairy, and others, they knew that with their cultivation levels, they were only there to make up the numbers at this Central Continent Conference, so they simply gave up and spent the time exchanging cultivation experiences with the strong from Other Provinces to increase their experience, without caring about rankings.
"This is Tenth-Rank Immortal Pill, the 'Nine Dragons Essence-Enhancing Pill'."
Before the Central Continent Conference began, Lu Changsheng gave Xia Ningxue two Tenth-Rank Immortal Pills.
The Nine Dragons Essence-Enhancing Pill can temporarily boost one 'Xia Ningxue cultivation level. If Xia Ningxue's cultivation level is lower than her opponent's, using this Immortal Pill will allow her to fight against powerful Sects members with higher cultivation levels.
"Furthermore, this is an Eleventh-Rank Immortal Pill, the 'Ancestral Dragon Double-Origin Pill,' whose effects are several times more potent than the Nine Dragons Essence-Enhancing Pill. It should only be used in dire circumstances; otherwise, it may cause the body to explode and die."
Lu Changsheng gave Xia Ningxue another Immortal Pill to save her life.
He had been in seclusion for 140 years, accumulating a large number of Ninth-Grade Medicinal Pills, Tenth-Rank Immortal Pills, and even a few Eleventh-Rank Immortal Pills. This amount of Immortal Pills was nothing... Xia Ningxue's cultivation had improved, and she could return her cultivation and Great Dao comprehension to Lu Changsheng. No matter how Lu Changsheng calculated it, he wouldn't lose out.
Why are you so good to me?
Xia Ningxue received Tenth-Rank Immortal Pill and Eleventh-Rank Immortal Pills, which were priceless even to experts at the Dao Integration Realm. Her beautiful eyes sparkled, and her clear gaze shone brightly.
Lu Changsheng has given her countless Medicinal Pills over the years; otherwise, her cultivation level wouldn't have progressed so rapidly.
Now Lu Changsheng is even giving away Eleventh-Rank Immortal Pills without a second thought.
Because I don't want anything to happen to you.
Lu Changsheng was also hoping that Xia Ningxue's cultivation would improve, helping him to the Ascension to the Immortal Realm faster.
This can be considered another form of teaching.
Of course, it's not entirely true that there were no selfish motives.
Holding the Purple-Gold Eight Trigrams Gourd containing the Immortal Pill, Xia Ningxue was deeply moved. "I will definitely cultivate diligently, and then Ascension to the Immortal Realm together."
The following day, the Central Continent Conference officially began. One by one, disciples of the Stars Pavilion arrived at the residences of the powerful figures from various continents, leading them to the Dao Field.
The Green-Robed Woman, Xiao Zhu, was in charge of leading the cultivators from Xiazhou to the Dao Field.
"In previous Central Province Dao Discussions, the number of powerful figures was overwhelming. Even our Stars Pavilion's Martial Platform could hardly withstand the aftershocks of the battles. Therefore, the Central Province Dao Discussions will be held in Dragon Field."
"Dragon Field is a semi- Independent Space created by High Antiquity powerful beings; even if it is destroyed, it will not affect this world."
"The wonder of Dragon Field lies in the fact that although it is Independent Space, it can absorb the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi from the outside world. Therefore, even Dao Integration Realm expert can unleash their full strength in Dragon Field."
"Dragon Field is also the place where our Stars Pavilion's powerful members Ascension to the Immortal Realm for enlightenment, to prevent the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation from destroying the Stars Pavilion. This is an open secret."
The Green-Robed Woman briefly explained the venue of the Central Province Dao Discussion Conference to the group from Xiazhou.
With a gesture, she drew her Middle-Grade Immortal Sword and flew with Lu Changsheng, Xia Ningxue, Yu Xuanji, and others to the entrance of the Dragon Field Rear Mountain the Stars Pavilion.
Rear Mountain the Stars Pavilion, there was a cave abode. Streams of light flew in on swords and entered the cave abode.
Lu Changsheng and his group followed the Green-Robed Woman into the cave abode. A flash of white light, and suddenly the space opened up before them, revealing a vast and boundless space.
This Independent Space, named "Dragon Field" by the Stars Pavilion, has a huge square open space in the very center, which must be the Martial Platform.
The Martial Platform is not fancy at all, because any Martial Platform would be destroyed if Dao Integration Realm expert went all out, so there is only a flat area where people can fight to their heart's content.
Beside the Martial Platform, there is a viewing platform with a ram-head-shaped divine pillar on each of the four sides. The resulting array can neutralize the aftershocks generated when experts at the Dao Integration Realm spar, protecting the spectators and allowing them to observe the Cultivation Method and Divine Abilities of the two combatants, and witness the profound Cultivation Method from various states.
"This is the Four-Ram Fangzun Divine Formation. Even if it directly withstands an attack from the Peak of the Dao Integration Realm expert, it will not break immediately. Rest assured."
The Green-Robed Woman led Xiazhou and his group to the viewing platform inside the Four-Ram Fangzun Divine Formation.
Teams of powerful warriors entered the viewing platform.
These powerful individuals came from various states and regions, possessing formidable auras, and they were not Qi Ingestion of one another's superiority.
The Valley Master of Blazing Fire Valley, the Sect Master of the Profound Saber Sect, Penglai Fairy, and other sect leaders, along with their Elders and disciples, were already on the viewing platform.
Penglai Fairy even nodded to Lu Changsheng in acknowledgment.
Because he had suffered a loss at Lu Changsheng's hands, the Valley Master of Blazing Fire Valley glared at Lu Changsheng fiercely. He wished that Lu Changsheng would be his first opponent in the Central Continent Conference, so that he could humiliate him in front of the powerful figures from all the major states.
Lu Changsheng ignored the Valley Master of Blazing Fire Valley.
The Valley Master of Blazing Fire Valley is at the Sixth Layer of the Dao Integration Realm, while Lu Changsheng's cultivation has now caught up with his.
