Blood Bats Cave was reduced to ruins, and the Evil Cultivators and Demon Race inside were almost all killed or wounded.

The two Emperor-Rank Killer, Phantom and Wangliang, lay covered in blood amidst the ruins, barely clinging to life.

They hadn't expected Lu Changsheng to be so ridiculously strong, and his Law Treasure was even Upper-Grade Emperor Armament, completely exceeding their expectations.

"Go."

Two black, Six-Winged Demon Insects flew out from Lu Changsheng's wide sleeves.

The carapaces of the two Six-Winged Demon Insects were covered with patterns resembling human faces, making them extremely eerie.

The two Emperor-Rank Killer turned pale upon seeing the Six-Winged Demon Insect.

The Marrow-Devouring Insect, Seventeenth Grade Devil Creature, can devour brain marrow and then manipulate its host. It is a Gu-like creature created by Evil Cultivators in the Demon Realm, and it is truly terrifying.

Spare us!

The two assassins, Phantom Wangliang, hurriedly begged for mercy.

They don't want their brains to be Marrow-Devouring Insect.

However, it was too late. The Marrow-Devouring Insect burrowed into their nostrils, entered their brains, and devoured their brain marrow.

The two Emperor-Rank Killer let out painful screams, their bodies contorted in agony.

"A single Marrow-Devouring Insect is worth 80 billion contribution points, and there are only two in the entire Taihua Sacred Ground Treasure Pavilion. Unfortunately, each Marrow-Devouring Insect can only control one host."

Lu Changsheng exchanged for two Marrow-Devouring Insect, paying a considerable price in the process.

Now, the two Marrow-Devouring Insect can finally be put to use.

The Marrow-Devouring Insect can not only suck the brain marrow of its host, but also devour their Sea of Consciousness and memories, replace their brain, and control the host's body.

Outwardly, Xiuzhenzhe parasitized by Marrow-Devouring Insect may not appear much different from ordinary people, but in reality, they have become walking corpses.

The Marrow-Devouring Insect is a demonic Devil Creature found only in the Demon Realm. It is a mutated demonic worm that has absorbed a large amount of Devil Qi. The Taihua Sacred Ground seized this Devil Creature from the Demon Realm Elders during a battle, and it eventually fell into Lu Changsheng's hands.

The two Emperor-Rank Killer Phantom Wangliang, possess Special Physique "Twin Soul Body" physique and are also skilled in assassination. They can be turned into puppets to serve as henchmen or cannon fodder.

Even when controlled by the Marrow-Devouring Insect, he can still continue cultivating.

The two Phantom struggled for a long time, but as the last bit of their brains was eaten by the marrow -Wangliang Marrow-Devouring Insect, they finally stopped struggling and their eyes glazed over.

The two moved somewhat stiffly, constantly fidgeting with their joints, looking like insects. It seemed the Marrow-Devouring Insect had not yet adapted to the bodies of Human Race Xiuzhenzhe.

This scene was somewhat eerie.

Lu Changsheng was secretly startled by the power of the Marrow-Devouring Insect.

The methods of powerful figures in the Demon Realm are unpredictable and difficult to defend against.

It seems that we must be careful if we encounter powerful figures from the Demon Realm in the future, otherwise we might fall victim to their trap.

If it weren't for the fact that the Treasure Pavilion of the Taihua Sacred Ground had a Devil Creature called the Marrow-Devouring Insect that could be exchanged, Lu Changsheng would not have been able to witness the power of the Marrow-Devouring Insect firsthand.

A single Marrow-Devouring Insect is worth 80 billion contribution points, which now seems like a fair price.

After a long while, the two assassins finally moved more smoothly and knelt down before Lu Changsheng: "Master."

Lu Changsheng simply nodded.

From now on, I'll have two Emperor-Rank Killer secretly protecting me when I travel. That's so cool!

Lu Changsheng summoned the Heaven-Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, releasing the Tai Xu True Person and Jianjia.

Tai Xu True Person and Jianjia witnessed Lu Changsheng defeat two Emperor-Rank Killer in the Law Treasure space, and then the Marrow-Devouring Insect devoured the brain marrow of the two Emperor-Rank Killer. They felt a chill down their spines.

The sight of the two Emperor-Rank Killer struggling in agony Marrow-Devouring Insect devoured the brain marrow was horrifying.

However, since two Emperor-Rank Killer wanted to kill Lu Changsheng, Lu Changsheng's treatment of them can be considered their own fault.

Jianjia looked at Lu Changsheng with even more admiration.

Two Emperor-Rank Killer, enough to strike fear into the hearts of Xiuzhenzhe below the initial Immortal Emperor, were easily defeated by Lu Changsheng, who even used the Marrow-Devouring Insect to control them.

Jianjia nervously touched one of the Emperor-Rank Killer with her finger, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she found that the other party did not react at all.

"Changsheng, can you deduce who offered the bounty to hire two Emperor-Rank Killer to kill you? The price must be exorbitant, otherwise two Emperor-Rank Killer wouldn't risk being hunted down by Taihua Divine Mountain to kill you."

Tai Xu True Person did not believe that the crisis was over.

Anyone who can afford to hire two Emperor-Rank Killer to kill Lu Changsheng must have an extraordinary background.

Even a beginner Immortal Emperor, even if he went bankrupt, might not be able to afford two assassins at the Immortal Emperor, First Stage.

Even though the Great Perfection Immortal Emperor had cultivated for a long time and had a relatively wealthy background, he still had to grit his teeth to afford so many Immortal Stones and treasures when hiring two assassins at the Immortal Emperor, First Stage.

Lu Changsheng is the Taihua Saint. If the assassination succeeds, Lin Xuantong might use the Time Principle to find out who killed Lu Changsheng, and then send out the Grand Supreme Elders to retaliate, or even take action himself.

Therefore, to hire two assassins Chimei Wangliang, one must pay a much higher price.

The enemy who issued the bounty to Eternal Night must be powerful, but Lin Xuantong was not someone to be trifled with, so he did not take action himself, but instead chose to hire an assassin.

"I have a few suspects, but I'm not certain yet. For now, the best course of action is to remain calm and wait for the right opportunity. If they try to kill me repeatedly but fail, they'll inevitably reveal their weaknesses in their haste."

"You've grown a lot since you were in Mount Shu."

Tai Xu True Person greatly admired this junior.

Lu Changsheng's cultivation level has now far surpassed that of these seniors from Mount Shu, and even Tai Xu True Person now needs Lu Changsheng's protection.

Lu Changsheng's thoughts and methods are much more meticulous and ruthless than when he was in Mount Shu.

Although the Immortal Realm appears peaceful on the surface, undercurrents are surging beneath.

The strong are respected, and if the methods are not swift and decisive, one may very well suffer the consequences.

Lu Changsheng returned to Mount Shu with Tai Xu True Person and Jianjia.

The Blood Bats Cave had been completely reduced to ruins when Lu Changsheng fought with the two Emperor-Rank Killer, which also buried the Evil Cultivators of the Blood Bats Cave. Mount Shu no longer needed to exterminate these Evil Cultivators.

"Tai Xu!"

Qingxia Immortal Maiden, who was stationed at Mount Shu, saw Tai Xu True Person had returned safely and rushed into his arms, tears streaming down her face.

"Haha, thanks to Changsheng's help, I was able to escape danger."

Tai Xu True Person recounted what had happened, and the Elders of Mount Shu, including True Person Tai Ling, Daoist Yuxuan, Red-Bearded Daoist, Daoist Mingzhen, all looked in shock at the two Emperor-Rank Killer Chimei Wangliang were following behind Lu Changsheng.

Two assassins at the Immortal Emperor, First Stage had their brains eaten by the Marrow-Devouring Insect, becoming puppets controlled by Lu Changsheng?

These are two Emperor-Rank Killer!

If the Phantom and Wangliang were to attack Mount Shu, no one in the entire Mount Shu would be their match, not even if the Mountain-Guarding Formation were activated.

"Currently, the Mountain-Guarding Formation Mount Shu is the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Lihuo Divine Formation, which consists of the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon True Fire Mirror and Eight-Faced Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Dharma Banners. Among Upper-Grade Sacred Artifacts, it is considered top-grade. However, it is still far inferior to Emperor Weapon. I will temporarily retrieve the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon True Fire Mirror and the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Dharma Banners, and will re-set up the array when I have a better array Law Treasure."

Lu Changsheng waved his hand, and the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon True Fire Mirror and Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Dharma Banner that had surrounded Accumulated Thunder Mountain soared into the sky and returned to Lu Changsheng's body.

As Lu Changsheng's cultivation level increased, so did his perspective. He realized that the Mountain-Guarding Formation of Mount Shu could not withstand the attack of a preliminary Immortal Emperor. If a powerful enemy were to attack Mount Shu in the future and use the people of Mount Shu to threaten him, it would ultimately be a hidden danger.

Lu Changsheng can bestow the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon True Fire Mirror and the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Dharma Banner upon his disciples to see if the system will return even higher-level array Law Treasures.

The Treasure Pavilion of Taihua Sacred Ground also offers Law Treasure for exchanging for array formations. By bestowing several Law Treasure upon your Disciples, you will eventually receive the Law Treasure they desire.

"Changsheng, my disciple has excellent aptitude. I wonder if he could study under you for a period of time?"

Qingxia Immortal Maiden pushed Jianjia over.

Jianjia is Indestructible Sword Body. Qingxia Immortal Maiden knew that Lu Changsheng's "teaching" ability was extremely strong. If her Personal Disciples could cultivate under the Changsheng Sect for a period of time, they would also benefit for life.

"Can."

Lu Changsheng didn't actually have any special teaching techniques. Rather, his disciples were all exceptionally talented, ranging from Dragon Emperors and Devil Ancestors to High Antiquity Buddhas. In addition, the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator returned a massive amount of Cultivation Resources, making it difficult for his disciples' cultivation not to advance by leaps and bounds.

Jianjia will temporarily cultivate under the Changsheng Sect, and Lin Qingzhi will guide her cultivation. As for the Cultivation Resources for the other disciples, Lu Changsheng will provide them with plenty.

Seeing that there was no immediate danger at Mount Shu, Lu Changsheng waved his sleeve, his True Qi enveloping Jianjia, and used spatial teleportation to return to Taihua Divine Mountain.

At the very moment when the two Emperor-Rank Killer had their brains completely devoured by the Marrow-Devouring Insect, in a certain Forbidden Grounds, two Life Lamps suddenly went out, and an old man opened his eyes, his eerie blue eyes sending chills down one's spine.

"My two disciples are dead."

Please turn off your browser's reading/smooth reading/novel mode and disable ad blocking to avoid content not displaying or paragraph misalignment.

An extremely terrifying aura emanated from the old man, causing the entire cave abode to tremble violently.

Most of these assassins are lone wolves; they rarely take on apprentices, but once they do, they treat them like half a son.

As a result, both of his Disciple died tragically.

The old man continuously formed hand seals, creating Space-Time Turbulence in front of him.

A scene from hundreds of millions of miles away appeared before him: Lu Changsheng was using the Marrow-Devouring Insect to kill the Chimei Wangliang.

"Damn it, they actually used Marrow-Devouring Insect to kill my two Disciples! I will make you pay the price!"

The old man found the person who killed his two Disciples and was furious, causing the Space-Time Turbulence and dissipate.

"Taihua Divine Mountain is home to Lin Xuantong and a group of reclusive old monsters. If I were to trespass on Taihua Divine Mountain, I would surely die. My only option is to lie low and wait for an opportunity."

After the old man calmed down a bit, his cave abode fell into a deathly silence once more.

Taihua Divine Mountain, Yuntai Peak, Lu Changsheng's cave abode, Lu Changsheng is Transmission Empowerment to Jianjia.

Although the system did not refund the power transferred to Jianjia was only an Earth Immortal, so the cost of the power transfer was negligible for Lu Changsheng.

Jianjia found it hard to believe; how could someone pass on their painstakingly accumulated skills to another?

Jianjia broke through directly from the third level of Earth Immortal to the fourth level.

After transferring a tiny bit of his power to Jianjia for free, Lu Changsheng summoned his Second Disciple Lu Qinglian, and transferred his power to Lu Qinglian, who had just broken through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

[Ding! You have transferred 18 million Heavenly Cultivation Points to your Disciple Lu Qinglian. Lu Qinglian actually received 3.5 million Heavenly Cultivation Points. You have received a 70-fold return reward for mentoring a disciple: 245 million Heavenly Cultivation Points.]

The system returned a massive amount of cultivation points, almost overwhelming Lu Changsheng.

Cool!

It's definitely more satisfying to pass on skills to Personal Disciples.

A portion of the cultivation points returned by the system were absorbed by the Book of the Earth and the Nameless Ancient Cauldron. The True Qi refined by the Nameless Ancient Cauldron could activate the Taiyin Goddess Talisman. As for the Book of the Earth, Lu Changsheng had not yet discovered any of its wonderful uses.

A portion of his cultivation was used to nourish the Primordial Ancient Thunder Dragon Primordial Spirit.

The Primordial Ancient Thunder Dragon Primordial Spirit can also be considered a magical Law Treasure that can be upgraded.

Once the Primordial Ancient Thunder Dragon Primordial Spirit reaches its peak, it will surpass even the Emperor Weapon.

"I will impart to you the 'True Technique of the Heavenly Phoenix Sacred Fire,' a cultivation method created by an ancient human powerhouse inspired by the Heavenly Phoenix Clan."

Lu Changsheng opened his palm, and a ball of Divine Fire in the shape of a celestial phoenix appeared.

Now that Lu Qinglian has reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm, she already has the strength to master Lower-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method.

Please turn off your browser's reading/smooth reading/novel mode and disable ad blocking to avoid content not displaying or paragraph misalignment.

Under Lu Changsheng's guidance, Lu Qinglian successfully began her training.

[Ding! You have taught your Disciple Lu Qinglian the Lower-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method "Heavenly Phoenix Sacred Fire True Art," and have received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward teaching a disciple: the Top-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method "Limitless True Flame Technique."]

The system rewarded me with a high-grade Top-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method.

If Cultivation Method of this caliber were released, it would be enough to cause countless Great Luo Golden Immortals, Quasi-Emperors, and Immortal Emperors to scramble for it.

However, the "Limitless True Flame Technique" still cannot compare with the "Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art," the Taihua Sacred Ground's Sect-Guarding Secret Art.

The "Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art" is, after all, a sect's Supreme Lore, which has already exceeded the scope of Emperor-Grade Cultivation Methods.

In addition to internal energy cultivation, Lu Changsheng also taught Lu Qinglian new Martial Techniques: the Myriad Forms Heavenly Net Palm and the Divine Thunder Leg.

[Ding! You have taught your Disciple Lu Qinglian the low- Emperor-Grade -rank Martial Technique "Myriad Forms Heavenly Net Palm," and have received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward teaching a disciple: the Top-Grade Emperor-Grade Martial Technique "Dragon-Severing Palm."]

[Ding! You have taught your Disciple Lu Qinglian the low -Emperor-Grade Martial Technique "Divine Thunder Leg," and have received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: the Emperor-Grade -rank Martial Technique "True Thunder Gale Leg."]

The two Martial Technique Cultivation Method returned by the system are both cultivable for Lu Changsheng, which is a decent reward.

Lu Changsheng took out a spear of Low-Grade Emperor Weapon level.

This Law Treasure is exactly the same as the Law Treasure used by Feng Chen.

The Sun-Searing Golden Spear is not the only Law Treasure; as long as the corresponding materials and refining methods are available, the Sun-Searing Golden Spear can be forged.

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Lu Qinglian the Low-Grade Emperor Weapon "Sun-Searing Golden Spear," receiving a reward of 100,000 times the normal reward: Dao Artifact Fragment ×1.]

Dao Artifact Fragment?

Lu Changsheng was taken aback.

This is the first time the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator has rewarded Dao Artifact Fragments.

Dao Artifacts are magical treasures used by powerful figures like the Yaochi Holy Mother to Dao-Proving Law Treasure; they are powerful enough to suppress even Holy Lands, demonstrating their Law Power.

I wonder how many Dao Artifact Fragment are needed to synthesize a single Dao Artifact?

The Dao-Proving Law Treasure one's enlightenment are few and far between even in a single Holy Land; they are mostly Law Treasures left behind by the ancestors of those Holy Lands.

Dao Artifacts also vary in strength, and can be divided into Ninth-Grade.

If one could synthesize Dao-Proving Law Treasure of the "Plain-Colored Cloud-Realm Banner" level from Yaochi, that would be extraordinary.

Someone has issued a bounty to Eternal Night to assassinate Lu Changsheng. Lu Changsheng still needs some means to protect himself.

Some people died, but they weren't completely dead...
