Bestowing a Supreme Treasure on a Disciple, the Competition Begins! (4K)

"Now that you have mastered the second level of the Heaven and Earth Manifestation, I will impart to you the Mnemonic for the Third Layer."

The Jinglong Immortal Temple’s Temple Master realized he had lost his composure and immediately adjusted his mindset. When he looked at Lu Changsheng again, it was as if he had discovered a rare treasure.

She underestimated Lu Changsheng's speed in Cultivation Practice Method.

Lu Changsheng was the fastest cultivation genius she had ever seen.

If this disciple is properly trained, Jinglong Immortal Temple might produce another Great Luo Golden Immortal.

"The difficulty of the Third Layer of the Heaven and Earth Manifestation is ten times that of the second level. You still need to cultivate diligently and not be arrogant. Soon, we will hold an internal competition within our Jinglong Immortal Temple, divided into three groups: Heavenly Immortal Realm, Earth Immortal Realm, and Dao Integration Realm. The top four in Group One can draw a portion of the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi to their Daoist Temple for three thousand years, one thousand years, and three hundred years, respectively."

The Jinglong Immortal Temple’s Temple Master taught Lu Changsheng the Third Layer of the Law of Heaven and Earth Manifestation Cultivation Method, and also informed Lu Changsheng about the internal competition within Jinglong Immortal Temple.

Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi?

Lu Changsheng knew that the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi mentioned by the Temple Master was the dragon-shaped Spiritual Qi formed by the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi drawn by the Great Spirit Gathering Formation of Jinglong Immortal Temple.

The concentration of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi is more than ten times that of other places in Jinglong Immortal Temple.

If one can cultivate within the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi and absorb the most refined Spiritual Qi, then the cultivation speed will increase several times.

Normally, the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi is mainly used for the Temple Master and a few Guardian to cultivate. However, to encourage Elders and disciples, the top four winners in the competition can also receive a portion of the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi.

Therefore, many Elders and disciples of Jinglong Immortal Temple were eyeing this opportunity.

Lu Changsheng is at the Earth Immortal Realm, so he participated in the Earth Immortal Group.

"The Third Layer of the Heaven and Earth Manifestation is indeed difficult."

Lu Changsheng silently recited the Third Layer of the Cultivation Method taught by the Temple Master. Sure enough, the Cultivation Method of the Third Layer was on a completely different level from the previous two.

Longevity Flower 350 years mastering the first two levels of the Heaven and Earth Manifestation, but Lu Changsheng believed that mastering the Third Layer would take at least a thousand years.

"I only mastered the Third Layer of the Heaven and Earth Manifestation in the Heavenly Immortal Realm, achieving oneness with heaven and earth. You don't need to put too much pressure on yourself. I will first teach you a set of Saint-level lower... Saint-level middle-grade Sword Art — 'Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Sea'. When this Sword Art is cultivated to its highest level, the Sword Qi is like ten thousand rivers, flowing endlessly, capable of destroying heaven and earth."

The Temple Master initially thought that since Lu Changsheng was at the Earth Immortal Realm, Saint-tier Low-grade Sword Art would suffice. However, she then considered that Lu Changsheng possessed monstrous talent, so wouldn't he learn Saint-tier Low-grade Sword Art in no time?

So the Temple Master took out an even rarer Swordsmanship and gave it to Lu Changsheng to practice.

Lu Changsheng was her personally Personal Disciple. If Lu Changsheng won the competition within the temple, she would also gain face.

Thank you, Master.

Lu Changsheng, having unexpectedly obtained a mid-grade Saint-level Swordsmanship, was naturally happy to cultivate it.

Lu Changsheng's self-created "Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow Swordsmanship" still has room for improvement.

Lu Changsheng needs to cultivate other Saint-tier Sword Art and enhance his Sword Dao Comprehension in order to perfect the Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow Swordsmanship.

"The competition will begin in three hundred years. Prepare well."

The Temple Master didn't think three hundred years was a long time, after all, her seclusion often lasted for hundreds or thousands of years.

"Yes."

Lu Changsheng returned to his Daoist Temple and began cultivating the "Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Sea".

The Third Layer of the Heaven and Earth Manifestation Sword Art cannot be perfected without a thousand or eight hundred years, so Lu Changsheng is not in a hurry to cultivate the Third Layer, but instead tries his best to master the "Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Sea".

Following the "Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Sea" Cultivation Method, Lu Changsheng wielded the Demon-Suppressing Sword, its Sword Qi surging and rushing wildly towards the turbulent current.

"As expected of a complete mid-grade Saint-level sword Swordsmanship, it's even stronger than the Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow Sword Art that I created myself in the Dao Integration Realm. Perhaps this Cultivation Method was created by a powerhouse at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Rank Sword Art."

Lu Changsheng had the potential to master this Swordsmanship and quickly grasped its basics.

Fifty years later, "Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Sea" was completed.

Two hundred and fifty years later, the internal competition of Jinglong Immortal Temple is about to begin, and the "Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Sea" will reach its great perfection.

"My cultivation level is at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm Sixth Layer. I possess the Heaven and Earth Manifestation, the Ten Thousand Streams Returning to the Sea, the Three Thousand Gods and Devils Visualization Method, the Taiqing Heavenly Scripture, as well as magical Law Treasures such as the Immortal-Slaying Sword, the Kasyapa Golden Light Mirror, the Twelfth-Rank Karma-Fire Red Lotus, the Demon God Bell, the Ten Thousand Dragons Armor, and the Heaven-Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda. Even if I were to encounter the Li Mountain Old Demon, who had reached the Great Accomplishment of the Earth Immortal Realm, the outcome would be unpredictable."

Lu Changsheng has cultivated in the Jinglong Mountain Range for a total of 950 years, making him much stronger than when he encountered the Li Mountain Old Demon in Tianyang City 950 years ago.

Lu Changsheng now dares to challenge a master of the Great Accomplishment of the Earth Immortal Realm.

The internal competitions at Jinglong Immortal Temple are divided into three groups: Heavenly Immortal, Earth Immortal, and those below Earth Immortal.

Lu Changsheng belongs to the Earth Immortal Group.

If you rank in the top four of the Earth Immortal Group, you will have the opportunity to receive a portion of the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi and cultivate for a thousand years.

Although Lu Changsheng received Spiritual Qi returned by the system, the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi did not provide as much of an improvement to Lu Changsheng as it did to others. However, it was still a way to increase cultivation speed, and Lu Changsheng did not mind having another avenue.

"This demon Demon God Bell can be bestowed upon my disciple."

Lu Changsheng took out the Demon God Bell.

Treasures are rare, and Lu Changsheng has been accumulating them and heavenly materials and earthly treasures over the years.

Ning Qianqian has entered the Earth Immortal Realm Second Layer and can now use supreme treasures.

So Lu Changsheng summoned Ning Qianqian.

"This Law Treasure is a gift from your master to protect you."

Lu Changsheng couldn't control multiple Law Treasures on his own, but Ning Qianqian's cultivation had reached the Earth Immortal Realm, and she could use the Demon God Bell to share his burdens. Therefore, Lu Changsheng didn't hesitate to bestow the Demon God Bell Ning Qianqian.

"Such a precious treasure, Master, are you really going to bestow it upon your disciple?"

If Ning Qianqian remembered correctly, this was Law Treasure her master used to seal off space. It was priceless; even ordinary early-stage Earth Immortals might not possess such a treasure. And her master had bestowed it upon her?

Although Ning Qianqian is Demon Race, she has been cultivating with Lu Changsheng Ning Qianqian so long that she knows the value of the treasure.

Each of these treasures is Law Treasure crafted from rare and heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

"Master has many Law Treasures; please accept this one. It will greatly enhance your Law Treasure."

Lu Changsheng knew that the Demon God Bell was Spatial Law Treasure of the Demon Race. This Law Treasure had a greater effect on Ning Qianqian of the Dragon Clan than on Xiao Fan of the Human Race.

"Then this disciple thanks Master."

Ning Qianqian accepted the Demon God Bell, her eyes sparkling with smiles.

Ning Qianqian erased the mark of the Demon God Bell and Ning Qianqian her own mark on it, turning the Demon God Bell into her own Law Treasure.

Ning Qianqian activated the Demon God Bell, which unleashed Demon Qi Demon God Bell, emitting an eerie purple light Demon Qi enveloped the entire mountain peak, with flashes of purple light appearing intermittently.

The Demon God Bell vibrated, the entire Daoist Temple shook, cracks appeared in the surrounding mountains, and the spirit beasts submitted.

Lu Changsheng quickly used his True Qi to protect the mountain peak.

Lu Changsheng had long noticed that Ning Qianqian's personality was somewhat similar to Lu Qinglian's; both of them were troublemakers.

Ordinary disciples wouldn't dare to test the power of a supreme treasure in their own Sects, but Ning Qianqian did.

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Ning Qianqian the Low-Grade Supreme Treasure "Demon God Bell," receiving a reward of Hundred-Millionfold Return: Demon Race Sacred Artifact Fragment ×1.]

Sacred Artifact Fragment?

This was the first time Lu Changsheng had obtained such a treasure.

It was a black fragment, pitch black, and just one glance at it felt as if one's very soul would be devoured.

Once this Sacred Artifact is synthesized, it could potentially destroy the world.

Lu Changsheng even doubted that his cultivation level was sufficient to activate this Sacred Artifact.

Ning Qianqian quickly realized that as long as she activated the Demon God Bell with all her might, this Low-Grade Supreme Treasure could turn the surrounding area into ruins. So she withdrew her True Qi, and the Demon God Bell returned to its original True Body, landing in Ning Qianqian's palm.

At this moment, a disciple from Jinglong Immortal Temple landed and bowed to Lu Changsheng's Daoist Temple; "Elder Lu, our Jinglong Immortal Temple's internal competition is about to begin. Shangguan Elder has instructed his disciple to remind Elder Lu to attend."

Thank you for reminding me.

Lu Changsheng got up and led his two disciples to the Independent Space in the Jinglong Mountain Range.

The contest between Earth Immortals and Heavenly Immortal is so intense that it can cause anything, even destruction, and cannot be easily conducted on Jinglong Mountain. It must be taken in a desolate, Independent Space.

Streaks of light flew towards the Independent Space of the Jinglong Mountain Range, exuding powerful auras everywhere.

"Five... thirteen... twenty-seven... fifty-five... eighty-eight... one hundred and eight... and..."

Lu Changsheng sensed terrifying auras entering the Independent Space; there were actually hundreds of Loose Immortals cultivating in the Jinglong Mountain Range!

Jinglong Mountain truly lives up to its Grotto-Heaven Blessed Land, and Jinglong Immortal Temple truly lives up to its reputation as a powerful Sects in the Azure Domain. With such a large number of Rogue Cultivators, they could easily destroy a country.

Only some powerful Immortal Dynasties in the Immortal Realm could possibly rival Jinglong Immortal Temple.

Lu Changsheng led his two disciples, Xiao Fan and Ning Qianqian, into the palace in the Independent Space. Most of the Grand Supreme Elders, Elders, and disciples of Jinglong Immortal Temple had already gathered there; there were many powerful figures and geniuses.

The Four Great Protectors sat on the four thrones, which were second only to the master's seat, each with an arrogant expression.

This demonstrates their absolute confidence in their terrifying cultivation level!

The Four Great Protectors are second only to the Temple Master of Jinglong Immortal Temple in terms of cultivation level.

Moreover, these Four Great Protectors are not Disciples of the Jinglong Immortal Temple’s Temple Master, but rather more like partners. Each Guardian has an impressive background, coming from an ancient Lineage.

This is why Protector Han had lustful desires for Shangguan Zhao'er, but the Jinglong Immortal Temple’s Temple Master couldn't expel Protector Han. Even the Jinglong Immortal Temple’s Temple Master was somewhat wary of the ancient Aristocratic Clan behind these Guardian.

Cultivation Aristocratic Clan and secular Aristocratic Clan are two different concepts. Some ancient Aristocratic Clan have existed for countless years, with profound foundations, numerous powerful figures, and even Supreme Being the Great Luo Golden Immortal Rank.

The other Grand Supreme Elders, Elder, and disciples of Jinglong Immortal Temple all treated the Four Great Protectors with utmost respect.

Regardless of the background of the Four Great Protectors, their realm alone surpasses that of ordinary people. Sitting on their thrones, they are like four divine mountains, inspiring awe and reverence.

Among the Elders of Jinglong Immortal Temple, only Shangguan Zhao'er was not afraid of the Four Great Protectors.

She was the Temple Master's most valued disciple, and the Temple Master taught her everything he knew.

With her talent, as long as she doesn't perish along the way, surpassing the Four Great Protectors is only a matter of time.

The look in Protector Han's eyes as he gazed at Shangguan Zhao'er revealed greed.

Shangguan Zhao'er was as beautiful as Heavenly Immortal and had the potential to become Great Luo Golden Immortal, making Protector Han extremely covetous.

He enjoys conquering Immortal Maiden who are both highly skilled and beautiful.

"Han Jie, are you still eyeing Shangguan Zhao'er?"

One of the Guardians noticed Protector Han's gaze and revealed a playful smile.

"Mind your own business."

"Hehe, she's a genius Ascension from Small World. Someone who can stand out in the Spiritual Qi barren Three Thousand Small Worlds must have top-notch talent and temperament. She has the potential to become Great Luo Golden Immortal. If she does become Great Luo Golden Immortal, even you, Han Jie, might not be her match. If you don't win her heart quickly, she might not treat you well in the future."

"I've said it before, it's none of your business."

Protector Han turned ashen.

Another Guardian hit a nerve.

Shangguan Zhao'er's aptitude is too high. At the rate of Shangguan Zhao'er cultivation, it's only a matter of time before she surpasses Protector Han.

If you can't win over Shangguan Zhao'er when she's relatively weak, then when she reaches a higher level and has a broader perspective, Protector Han won't matter at all.

The Temple Master of Jinglong Immortal Temple was also an exceptionally beautiful woman, but few dared to covet her precisely because she possessed the terrifying cultivation level of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

To deal with Great Luo Golden Immortal, a deadly trap must be set; otherwise, if she escapes, it will be a fight to the death.

How easy is it to outwit Great Luo Golden Immortal who has begun to master the Time Principle?

"Boring."

Among the Four Great Protectors, one with Qiu Ran and a burly Guardian snorted coldly, seemingly indifferent to the topic being discussed by Protector Han and the others.

"Senior Sister."

Lu Changsheng arrived with two disciples and took the initiative to stand next to Shangguan Zhao'er.

At Jinglong Immortal Temple, Lu Changsheng's closest relationship was with Shangguan Zhao'er, who Ascension the Immortal Realm from the same Small World. Next were the Jinglong Immortal Temple’s Temple Master and the Grand Supreme Elders Chu Bukang, who had taught him his Cultivation Method.

Shangguan Zhao'er blinked. "Luckily you weren't late. The competition at Jinglong Immortal Temple only happens once every ten thousand years, a rare opportunity. If you can win a top-four spot in the Earth Immortal Group, you'll receive a share of the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi. The reason I became Heavenly Immortal so quickly was because, when I was in the Earth Immortal Realm, I defeated other Earth Immortal Elders and obtained a thousand years' worth of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi. During those thousand years, my cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds... Of course, your current cultivation speed is already astonishing..."

Shangguan Zhao'er originally wanted to praise the power of the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi, but she realized that Lu Changsheng's realm had already reached the peak of the sixth level of Earth Immortal, and it seemed that he could step into the seventh level of Earth Immortal at any time.

How come this junior brother's cultivation speed is so abnormal, even without the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi?

"Um."

Lu Changsheng wasn't particularly obsessed with the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi, but he still wanted to see how Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi was.

The Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi should be of greater help to his two disciples.

As the disciple's cultivation level increases, the more cultivation Lu Changsheng returns through his Transmission Empowerment.

This is a virtuous cycle.

"I won first place because I had the cultivation of the Earth Immortal Realm Ninth Layer. Although you have Middle-Grade Supreme Treasure, you are only at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm Sixth Layer. I'm worried..." Shangguan Zhao'er Liu Mei slightly, "I'm worried that Protector Han might secretly instruct his disciple to poison you. His disciple, Sun Peng, is a Great Perfection Earth Immortal, and he might even borrow Law Treasure from him. If you encounter this person, you should immediately give up."

Lu Changsheng smiled slightly, "Junior brother, you've remembered."
