Three Hundred and Sixty-Five Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners! (4K)

[Ding! Your Fifth Disciple, Chen Yao, has advanced from the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm to the Quasi-Emperor Realm. You have received the Disciple's realm advancement reward: "Profound Maiden Divine Talisman".]

As Lu Changsheng was pondering which Disciple he should pass on the Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact- level Formation to, a prompt appeared on the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator.

Chen Yao, whose whereabouts were unknown, had unexpectedly broken through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

Chen Yao's Nine Heavens Profound Maiden Physique is more powerful than I imagined.

Some people with Special Physique may not be particularly powerful in the early stages, not because their Special Physique is weak, but because their potential has not been developed, or perhaps they are accumulating strength for a later breakthrough.

What exactly is the "Profound Maiden Divine Talisman" rewarded by the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator?

An additional Talisman appeared in Lu Changsheng's Inner World trove.

This Talisman is three inches wide and one foot long, its surface is as clear and lustrous as jade, its characters are written in crimson blood, and it also has a faint glow.

Lu Changsheng attempted to refine the Talisman.

However, the Profound Maiden Divine Talisman remained unchanged.

Something's wrong, something's very wrong.

When Lu Changsheng discovered that he couldn't refine the Profound Maiden Divine Talisman, he knew something was wrong.

"Profound Maiden Divine Talisman... Mysterious Goddess... Could it be that only the Nine Heavens Profound Maiden Physique can refine it?"

Lu Changsheng realized that Chen Yao's Special Physique was the Nine Heavens Profound Maiden Physique, so the treasures returned by the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator were very likely related to Chen Yao.

It's a pity Chen Yao isn't here, otherwise I could have directly bestowed the Profound Maiden Divine Talisman upon Chen Yao.

"The Eight Desolate Fire Dragon True Fire Mirror and the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Dharma Banner should be bestowed upon Lin Qingzhi."

After thinking it over, Lu Changsheng decided to bestow this set of Law Treasure upon Lin Qingzhi.

Lu Changsheng summoned Lin Qingzhi and taught him about Law Treasures and formation techniques.

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Lin Qingzhi the Upper-Grade Sacred Artifacts, the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon True Fire Mirror and the Eight Desolate Fire Dragon Dharma Banner, and received a reward of one hundred million times the initial investment: 365 Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners and the "Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Heart Method".]

Ah???

The system returned over three hundred Law Treasures?! And a Cultivation Method?!

Lu Changsheng was startled at first, then came to his senses and realized that this was a set of Law Treasure.

The 365 Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners, when combined, form a set of Upper-Grade Emperor Armament Law Treasure, capable of forming the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation.

The Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation of Mount Shu in the Mortal Realm is based on 365 mountain peaks, while this Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation is based on 365 Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners, which are portable and more flexible.

"Upper-Grade Emperor Armament- level Law Treasure is enough to suppress Accumulated Thunder Mountain; even Great Perfection Immortal Emperor might not be able to break through this formation."

Lu Changsheng obtained 365 Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners, which allowed him to roughly estimate the power of this Formation.

If each of the Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners were taken out individually, its power would probably only be equivalent to Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact Law Treasure.

However, when all 365 Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners are combined, they form a Top-Grade Emperor-Grade Formation that can draw upon the power of 365 main stars, possessing boundless Law Power.

"So the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation of Mount Shu is this powerful, almost invincible in the Mortal Realm. When I was in Mount Shu, it seems I didn't even unleash Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation ten-thousandth of its power."

Lu Changsheng suddenly thought of the Mount Shu in the Mortal Realm, where there might be magical Law Treasures with arrays set up beneath the 365 peaks.

The Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation is said to be Mystical Formation created by the Mount Shu Dao Ancestor.

However, Lu Changsheng now seriously doubts whether the Mount Shu Dao Ancestor truly had the ability to create such a grand formation before Tribulation Transcendence Ascension.

It should be noted that even Immortal Emperor might not be able to create the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation on their own, let alone forge the 365 Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners used to set up the array.

Another possibility is that the Mount Shu Dao Ancestor somehow obtained the Cultivation Method and array- Law Treasure of the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Great Formation, and therefore told the Mount Shu Disciples that he created the Formation himself.

It's not entirely impossible.

After all, Lu Changsheng often publicly stated that the treasures returned by the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator were discovered accidentally...

The "Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Heart Method" is Cultivation Method used to manipulate the Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Formation.

Lu Changsheng flipped through a few pages and was immediately stunned.

Isn't this the "Taiqing Wuji Art" passed down from Mount Shu?!

The content isn't just 70-80% similar, it's practically identical!

If we have to point out a difference, it's that the "Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Heart Method" has more than ten pages of Mnemonic, which is the latter part that was missing from the "Taiqing Wuji Art"!

At this point, Lu Changsheng finally understood completely.

The Sect-Defending Cultivation Method of the Mount Shu sect in the Mortal Realm, "Taiqing Wuji Art," might just be a fragment of the "Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Heart Method" that the Mount Shu Dao Ancestor found somewhere, with only a different name.

The greatest use of the "Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Heart Method" is to manipulate the Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Formation. However, it is still a mental cultivation method, and it can be used for cultivation and combat, although its power is relatively ordinary.

A complete "Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Heart Method" is equivalent to Lower-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method when used in combat.

However, if the 365 Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners are added, the power will rival that of Top-Grade Emperor-Grade Cultivation Method.

Because of his experience in cultivating the "Taiqing Wuji Art", Lu Changsheng is estimated to be able to fully master the "Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Heart Method" very soon.

Lu Changsheng spent a year refining 365 Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners.

From now on, Lu Changsheng will have one more way of fighting: setting up formations.

The powerful Formation can refine billions of living beings, burn mountains and boil seas, and destroy the heavens and the earth.

If given enough time to set up his formation, Lu Changsheng he could put up a fight even against Great Perfection Immortal Emperor.

The existence of Formations is for specific purposes, one of which is to overcome the strong with the weak.

However, setting up a formation is time-consuming and lacks initiative.

For example, Mountain-Guarding Formation can only be effective if it waits for others to attack it, and it cannot be used to hunt down enemies.

Another drawback of Formations is that the more powerful Formation is, the more Xiuzhenzhe are needed to maintain it.

Legend has it that there is a High Antiquity Strange Formation in the Immortal Realm called the "Ten-Thousand Immortals Formation". It can be formed by ten thousand Loose Immortals. With Formation combined power of ten thousand Loose Immortals, even Great Perfection Immortal Emperor would be reduced to ashes if he entered the array.

If the Ten-Thousand Immortals Formation consisted of ten thousand Great Luo Golden Immortals, with a Great Perfection Immortal Emperor presiding over the formation's core, Ten-Thousand Immortals Formation Lu Changsheng dared not imagine its power.

"Mount Shu still needs an Emperor-Grade Formation to serve as its Mountain-Guarding Formation, and since this Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Formation is useful to me, I think I'll create another Formation."

Lu Changsheng decided to leave the Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Banners behind first.

After all, Lu Changsheng is the Mount Shu Sect Master. The stronger Lu Changsheng is, the less others dare to mess with the Mount Shu.

With the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator at his disposal, it wouldn't be difficult for Lu Changsheng to obtain a set of Emperor-Grade Formations.

Lu Changsheng arrived at the Treasure Pavilion of the Taihua Sacred Ground.

The higher Lu Changsheng's cultivation level, the more acute his Six Senses become.

He could clearly sense that several Immortal Emperors were secretly monitoring the Treasure Pavilion's every move.

Among them was even a Great Perfection Immortal Emperor.

This Grand Supreme Elders should be the true manager of the Treasure Pavilion, but he usually cultivates in cave abode near the Treasure Pavilion and does not easily show himself.

Normally, the Treasure Pavilion is guarded by a group of Elders at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm and some disciples.

Upon seeing Lu Changsheng arrive, the Elders of the Treasure Pavilion quickly rubbed their hands together and stepped forward to greet him.

Lu Changsheng is a major customer of the Treasure Pavilion and also the number one genius of the Holy Land.

Currently, Lu Changsheng ranks second on the Qilin Ranking, equaling Lin Xuantong's record.

If it weren't for that person, Lu Changsheng would already be the number one genius of his time.

Of course, that's how it appears on the surface.

However, the Qilin Ranking of the Purple Void Palace only records the young Human Race geniuses of the Immortal Realm who have made their moves. It does not record some reclusive Human Race geniuses, nor does it record the Evil Cultivators of the Demon Realm or the Demon Race geniuses of the Yao Realm. No one can know who is the true number one genius of the world.

The people of Taihua Sacred Ground all believe that Lu Changsheng is very likely to succeed Lin Xuantong and take over the Taihua Sacred Ground millions of years from now.

Therefore, the Elders of the Treasure Pavilion were even more polite. "I wonder if the Saint is lacking any treasures during his visit to the Treasure Pavilion?"

"I need a batch of magical Law Treasure for setting up formations."

"The Saint also studies Formations?"

"Um."

Lu Changsheng nodded, and all the Elders of the Treasure Pavilion stood in solemn respect.

The Saint truly lives up to his name; he is proficient in all Three Thousand Great Daos Saint.

The differences between people are greater than the differences between people and dogs.

No, Lu Changsheng's dog seems to be of higher aptitude than theirs.

Upon realizing this, the Elders of the Treasure Pavilion blushed with shame.

"I wonder what level of array-setting magic Law Treasure the Saint desires?"

"Sacred Artifact will do, or even a supreme treasure."

"Strange, with the Saint's current cultivation level, such a Saint Law Treasure would offer him negligible help. Why...?"

"This is a teaching tool I use to instruct my disciples in practicing Formations."

Lu Changsheng made up a reason on the spot.

The Elders of the Treasure Pavilion once again showed expressions of admiration.

The Saint is not only proficient in the Three Thousand Great Daos, but also possesses extraordinary Teaching Abilities.

Changsheng Sect has four disciples who simultaneously entered the top 100 of the Qilin Ranking!

Absolutely unique!

"Um?"

Lu Changsheng discovered that the Elders were so focused on worshipping him that they had forgotten to do their jobs.

This time, he intends to obtain a batch of array-setting Law Treasures, which he will then bestow upon his disciples to help them acquire even more advanced Law Treasures.

"We almost forgot! Quickly, fetch the array- Law Treasure for the Saint to choose from."

The people in the Treasure Pavilion finally came to their senses and hurriedly went to retrieve the treasures used to set up the formation.

"This is the Eight Trigrams Mirror, Middle-Grade Sacred Artifact, and the core of the Eight Trigrams Slaughter Formation."

"Volcanic Flame Iron, Top-Grade Supreme Treasure, the core of the Flame Spirit Formation."

"Ghost King Pearl, Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact, the core of the Reincarnation Ghost-Sha Formation."

"The Five Directions Immortal Emperor Swords, Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact, is the core of the Five Directions Sword Formation."

The Treasure Pavilion of the Taihua Sacred Ground lived up to its reputation for having a vast collection of Law Treasures, immediately producing dozens of Law Treasure, ranging in quality from supreme treasures to Sacred Artifacts.

Lu Changsheng waved his hand and exchanged them all.

Then, Lu Changsheng took these treasures and returned to Yuntai Peak.

Lu Changsheng bestowed the gifts upon Lin Qingzhi one by one.

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Lin Qingzhi the Top-Grade Supreme Treasure "Volcanic Flame Iron," and have received Apprentice-Teaching Eight-Hundredfold Return Reward: the Lower-Grade Sacred Artifact "Celestial Divine Fire Mirror."]

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your disciple Lin Qing the low-grade sacred artifact "Heavenly Fire Mirror," and have received a reward of 3000 times the normal reward for mentoring: the high-grade sacred artifact "Flaming Dragon Heavenly Pillar."]

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Lin Qingzhi the Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact "Ghost King Pearl," and have received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward mentoring: the Mid-Grade Emperor Weapon "Soul-Devouring Ghost Eye Pearls."]

Lu Changsheng obtained thirteen eerie, pitch-black beads, which can be used to form an Emperor-Grade "Ten-Thousand Ghosts Formation".

The Ten-Thousand Ghosts Formation is powerful enough to serve as Mountain-Guarding Formation Mount Shu.

However, the Ten-Thousand Ghosts Formation has a sinister aura that does not match the temperament of Mount Shu and is not suitable to be the Mountain-Guarding Formation of Mount Shu.

Lu Changsheng continued to teach apprentices.

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Lin Qingzhi the Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact "Five Directions Immortal Emperor Swords" and received Apprentice-Teaching Hundredfold Return Reward: the Low-Grade Emperor Weapon "Five Elements Emperor Banner".]

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your disciple Lin Qing the low-grade Emperor weapon "Five Elements Emperor Banner," and have received a hundredfold return reward for your discipleship: the mid-grade Emperor weapon "Ten Directions Immortal Emperor Banner."]

[Ding! You have bestowed upon your disciple Lin Qing a mid-grade sacred artifact, the "Eight Trigrams Mirror," and have received a million-fold return reward for your discipleship: a mid-grade imperial weapon, the "True Yang Eight Trigrams Mirror."]

This time, the system returned eight crimson mirrors, which can be combined to form the "True Yang Eight Trigrams Great Formation".

The True Yang Eight Trigrams Great Formation can draw upon the True Fire of the sun to subdue all evil spirits.

This grand formation does indeed suit the spirit of Mount Shu.

As for the power of the True Yang Eight Trigrams Great Formation, it is slightly inferior to the Lesser Celestial Circuit Star-Dipper Formation.

"There are also ten Ten Directions Immortal Emperor Dao Banners, which can be placed around Yuntai Peak to form Mountain-Guarding Formation. They can be bestowed upon my Disciple when he becomes Immortal Emperor in the future."

Lu Changsheng arranged the Ten Immortal Emperor Banners around his current cave abode.

Although Taihua Divine Mountain has Barrier and many patriarchs are stationed there, so few people dare to force their way into Taihua Divine Mountain, Lu Changsheng still set up a Formation just in case.

Even within the Taihua Sacred Ground, there is no unity of purpose; factions exist within it.

"Wait, I have many disciples. When these disciples grow up, they will at least reach the level of Great Perfection Immortal Emperor. If these disciples work together to activate the great formation, they will be a force to be reckoned with, and their strength may even surpass mine."

Lu Changsheng thought that he had a total of eleven Personal Disciples, as well as Tang Ling’er, Daoist Tuquan, Xiaojin, Jianjia, Luo Xintang Li Jianfei, Luo Xintang, Shangguan Zhao'er True Person Tai Ling, Tai Xu True Person, Qingxia Immortal Maiden, Qingxia Fairy, Lin Qinghan and other people with whom he had close relationships. The combined power of these people to activate the great Formation was unimaginable.

"Of my eleven Personal Disciples, Lin Qingzhi, Lu Qinglian, Ji Xuan, Chen Yao, Dugu Aotian, and Su Xiaoqi have already become Quasi-Emperors, while the others are still a little short. During this period, I have focused on cultivating Xiao Fan, Ning Qianqian, and Chen Yi. As for Mo Huazhi and Chen Xiaoyao, I still don't know their whereabouts. However, the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator shows that both of them are safe and sound, and their cultivation is also close to the Quasi-Emperor Realm."

Lu Changsheng could only focus on training Xiao Fan, Ning Qianqian, and Chen Yi for the time being.

Ning Qianqian didn't have much to say. With the Dragon Emperor Bloodline, as long as she was given enough heavenly materials and earthly treasures, she would become Quasi-Emperor on her own.

As for Xiao Fan, Lu Changsheng decided to let Xiao Fan absorb several more kinds of Spirit Fire.

Chen Yi's cultivation method is somewhat unique.

Chen Yi is the reincarnation of the High Antiquity Buddha. In addition to practicing Buddhism, he must also do good deeds, relieve suffering and distress, accumulate Merit, and pursue enlightenment.

As the saying goes, "Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot."

Chen Yi's cultivation is somewhat similar to Lin Qingzhi's; both of them are capable of frequent moments of enlightenment, and they might one day become Quasi-Buddhas.
