The Fourth Realm Robe! (4K)
After listening to Xu Jing's account of what happened at the Sword Tomb, Lu Changsheng used the Spacetime Principle and time to examine who wanted to kill Xu Jing he left the Sword Tomb.
"Going back in Spacetime."
The scene before Lu Changsheng appeared: less than two hours after Xu Jing left, several figures appeared.
The figures were concealed by Law Treasure, so Lu Changsheng could only see a few blurry figures and could not discern their origins.
"My Disciple usually cultivates in places where Yin Sha Qi gathers, and he hasn't offended any powerful forces in the Immortal Realm. Why is someone tracking his whereabouts? It seems the problem lies with that female sword immortal from the Heavenly Sect."
"The Heavenly Sect was annihilated by the Demon Race, and everyone in the Sects perished. Why would anyone still be searching for the whereabouts of the Heavenly Sect Female Sword Immortal?"
"Those people aren't Demon Race either, or are they working for the Demon Race?"
Lu Changsheng considered all the possibilities, but still couldn't figure it out.
Lu Changsheng originally thought that this Heavenly Sect Female Sword Immortal was just an ordinary Elder of the Heavenly Sect in High Antiquity times, but after many changes, Xu Jing accidentally dug up the female sword immortal's body, which even alarmed an unknown entity.
Suspicious.
That's highly suspicious.
The Heavenly Sect, a super sword-cultivation Sects that has been lost to the annals of history, seems to have some unknown secrets.
"System, simulate my disciple's life."
[Ding, you have begun simulating the life of your Disciple, Xu Jing.]
[Ding, today's simulation attempts -1.]
[Simulation begins:]
[Three hundred years later, Xu Jing believed that the Sword Tomb was no longer dangerous and returned to cultivate Sword Tomb.]
[Four hundred years later, Xu Jing was murdered.]
[Xu Jing, died.]
[Simulation ended.]
Lu Changsheng's expression was serious.
His disciple accidentally unearthed a female sword immortal, thus getting himself into trouble and being targeted by a powerful being.
The enemy could deduce Xu Jing's location and then send people to hunt him down.
Lu Changsheng felt a chill run down his spine.
This whole affair is shrouded in mystery.
A female sword immortal who has been dead for many years is still being hunted down.
What exactly happened at the Heavenly Sect back then?
What is the identity of this female swordswoman?
Who are the people chasing Xu Jing and the female swordswoman?
Lu Changsheng knew that although he was hiding in Taihua Mountain to cultivate, he had already been involved in Cause and Effect unintentionally.
"System, what would happen if my disciple didn't go to the Sword Tomb, but instead went to the Nine Nether Lands to cultivate?"
[Ding, you have changed the conditions and are now resimulating the life of your Disciple, Xu Jing.]
[Ding, today's simulation attempts -1.]
[Simulation begins:]
[Three hundred years later, following your advice, Xu Jing did not go to the Sword Tomb to cultivate, but instead went to the Nine Serenities to cultivate.]
[Three hundred and fifty years later, Xu Jing was murdered.]
[Xu Jing, died.]
[Simulation ended.]
This time, Xu Jing died even faster.
"System, try another location."
Lu Changsheng selected several cultivation locations with Yin Sha Qi for Xu Jing, but the system simulation showed that without exception, as long as Xu Jing left Taihua Mountain, he would be doomed.
This was the first time Lu Changsheng had encountered such a deadly situation.
Xu Jing unearthed the female sword immortal, and thus became entangled in the Unseen Cause and Effect, attracting the attention of a powerful being.
The other party was determined to kill Xu Jing.
"You must not leave Yuntai Peak during this time. Only after I find a magical Law Treasure to conceal your presence may you descend the mountain for training."
Before Lu Changsheng could come up with a solution, he had Xu Jing stay in the Taihua Sacred Ground to cultivate.
"Yes."
Xu Jing could only rely on the Ghost King Banner to draw in Yin Sha Qi from a distant place to slowly cultivate.
Although my cultivation speed has slowed down, at least I can keep my life.
The progress of resurrecting the female swordswoman was thus affected.
Lu Changsheng went to the Treasure Pavilion to exchange for a batch of treasures that could conceal his aura or presence.
Xu Jing has been targeted by a powerful being. The only way for Xu Jing to escape is to use Law Treasure to conceal his presence.
"The Tortoise Shell Garment, Lower-Grade Sacred Artifact. Wearing this robe allows one to conceal their aura like a black tortoise, making them difficult to track."
"Rock Tower, Middle-Grade Sacred Artifact. This tower can transform into rocks, its aura indistinguishable from ordinary rocks. Hiding inside the tower allows one to blend into the rock formation, making it even more difficult for enemies to track you down."
"The Divine Concealment Robe, Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact. This robe can distort the surrounding light; even a beginner Immortal Emperor would suffer if they were not careful."
The Elders of the Treasure Pavilion introduced Lu Changsheng to the various Law Treasure in the Treasure Pavilion that could conceal one's aura; they were mostly Sacred Artifacts and supreme treasures.
Lu Changsheng didn't expect these Law Treasures to help his Disciple escape the pursuit of the mysterious expert. He wanted to reward his disciple and use the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator to obtain Law Treasures of the Emperor Weapon level, or even Dao Artifacts, which might help Xu Jing escape this calamity.
"I'll take them all."
Lu Changsheng exchanged for over a hundred Law Treasures before leaving satisfied.
Today he still needs to go to the Rear Mountain to follow the Household Ancestor Lin in cultivating the "Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art".
The "Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art" is a divine-level Cultivation Method. The Household Ancestor Lin personally guided Lu Changsheng in its cultivation, hoping that another God King Realm powerhouse would be born in the Taihua Sacred Ground.
The Taihua Sacred Ground has not produced God King Realm powerhouse for a very long time.
Once Saint or Saintess reaches the God King Realm, it basically means that he or she has the ability to govern the Holy Land.
In various Holy Lands, the God King Realm and the Immortal Emperor Realm are a watershed.
Immortal Emperor Realm experts are the Mainstay and future of Holy Lands.
The God King Realm powerhouse are the top combat force of the Holy Lands.
As usual, Lu Changsheng arrived at the Rear Mountain and found the Household Ancestor Lin staring blankly at the waterfall that plunged nine thousand feet down the Rear Mountain.
"What happened to our ancestor?"
Lu Changsheng transmitted his voice to Lin Qinghan, who had also come to listen to the lecture.
"Because the ancestor remembered something. That event occurred exactly ninety million years ago."
"What is it?"
"Long ago, our ancestor took in a disciple with extraordinary talent, and taught him two of the sect's most Supreme Lore, the 'Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art' and 'One Sword Across the Ages Worlds.' His talent was no less than my father's. He had the potential to become the Taihua Sacred Lord in that era."
"However, ninety million years ago, he suddenly betrayed the Holy Land. Before he left his sect, he had already memorized the Mnemonic for the seventh Heavenly Realm the 'Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art' and the Fourth Sword Realm of the 'One Sword Across the Ages'."
"These two Cultivation Method are the Taihua Sacred Ground's Sect-Guarding Secret Art, and cannot be easily leaked out. Our patriarch was furious at the time and personally went to hunt them down."
What happened next?
Lu Changsheng was deeply shocked. He never expected that the Household Ancestor Lin had once taken in a Personal Disciple talent was no less than that of Lin Xuantong, yet this disciple, on whom so much hope was placed, had betrayed the sect.
Now, ninety million years have passed, Household Ancestor Lin, reflecting on the past, is no wonder he is lost in thought beneath the waterfall in the Rear Mountain.
The betrayal of Personal Disciple is also a significant blow to God King Realm powerhouse.
"The Ancestor left the mountain and searched for 300,000 years. When he returned, he was severely injured. When the people of the Holy Land asked about the situation, the Ancestor simply shook his head and remained silent."
Lin Qinghan, after all, was a direct descendant of the Household Ancestor Lin and knew about the events of that year.
It seems that the Household Ancestor Lin also had many secrets.
Lu Changsheng has never been interested in other people's secrets unless they involve him.
"Now that you're all here, let's begin."
The Household Ancestor Lin regained his senses and continued to instruct Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan on Cultivation Method cultivate the "Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art".
The Household Ancestor Lin's mastery of this Cultivation Method has reached the eighth Heavenly Realm, and he is only one level away from the ninth Heavenly Realm.
He personally guided Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan in cultivating the "Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art," which could answer their questions.
After obtaining the "Myriad-Flower Divine Parasol," the Dao-Proving Law Treasure of the Taihua Goddess, in the Divine Maiden Dao Ruins, Lin Qinghan's cultivation speed advanced by leaps and bounds, something even the Household Ancestor Lin hadn't anticipated.
Excluding Lu Changsheng's Disciples, Lu Changsheng and Lin Qinghan are currently the two most talented Immortal Emperor Realm in the Taihua Sacred Ground.
Therefore, the Household Ancestor Lin was willing to sacrifice some of his own cultivation time to guide the two in their cultivation and help them improve their realm as quickly as possible.
With two more God King Realm powerhouse, the strength and status of the Taihua Sacred Ground will be enhanced.
In the Demon Realm, in the Myriad Poison Miasma Valley, dark purple Poison Mist spread through the forest, Poison Mist slow movement even visible to the naked eye.
The Myriad Poison Miasma Valley is one of the most dangerous places in the Demon Realm. The Poison Mist here can even corrode the Great Luo Golden Body Poison Mist at the Golden Immortal Realm Rogue Cultivator. If they do not leave as soon as possible, they will be completely corroded by the Poison Mist and perish both in body and soul.
Within the Myriad Poison Miasma Valley, there are also many High Antiquity Demon Worm. Even Demon at the Immortal Emperor Realm might perish if he ventures deep into the valley.
Deep within the Myriad Poison Miasma Valley, a figure was meditating and cultivating. He was circulating his Devil Cultivation Method, and the Poison Mist within the Myriad Poison Miasma Valley swept in from all directions like ocean waves, entering his body.
Even the various High Antiquity Demon Worm that couldn't escape in time within the Poison Mist were swallowed up by this figure along with the poisonous Poison Mist by the terrifying suction force generated by the Devil Cultivation Method.
The massive amounts of Poison Mist and High Antiquity Demon Worm that would have caused even Great Perfection Immortal Emperor to perish became nourishment for this person.
Rumble...
A terrifying pressure descended, causing the entire Myriad Poison Miasma Valley, spanning a radius of millions of miles, to tremble violently.
The figure that was devouring the Poison Mist and High Antiquity Demon Worm frowned and stopped circulating its Devil Cultivation Method.
Another figure appeared, his figure towering and majestic, like the ruler of heaven and earth, his eyes deep and dark like black holes.
As soon as he appeared, everything in the Myriad Poison Miasma Valley held its breath. Even the billions of High Antiquity Demon Worm lay obediently on the ancient trees, not daring to move.
"Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable, what brings you to the Myriad Poison Miasma Valley?"
"Lin Beichen, back then you betrayed your sect and were hunted down by your master. It was I who defeated him, brought you to the Demon Realm, and taught you Cultivation Method. You still owe me a life."
What do you want me to do?
"The will of Heaven has changed; you will become a pawn of mine. This Talisman records my plans for you."
The Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable tossed out a Talisman, which the figure casually caught.
His Divine Sense read the contents of the Talisman, and his expression changed slightly. "Your arrangement will unleash endless Calamity, causing immense suffering to all living beings."
"Lin Beichen, remember this: you are no longer the revered Saint of Taihua Sacred Ground. You have Demonic Fall. Your master wishes he could kill you with his own hands. Don't you want to take revenge on your master? Think about it carefully."
As soon as the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable finished speaking, he vanished into thin air.
Lin Beichen, carrying the Demon Sword, stood still for a long time before continuing his Devil Cultivation Method cultivation, muttering to himself, "Master, time has passed, and my cultivation has caught up with yours. This time, I've returned to the Immortal Realm to let you experience the power of your Disciple."
In a certain place in the Immortal Realm, at the Main Altar the Blood Sea Hall, hundreds of Demons gathered.
These Demons either wore bronze Masks or veils, obscuring their true appearance.
"Those who join the Blood Sea Hall are all desperate criminals. They must act with extreme caution and not let others discover their identities."
Xiao Xiangdao mingled among the many Demons of the Blood Sea Hall. Seeing that everyone was cautious and dared not show their true faces, he couldn't help but sneer.
Within the blood pool of the Blood Sea Hall's Main Altar, a figure emerged from the blood pool.
This was an old man with white hair, shirtless, his withered upper body covered with various scars, yet he exuded a terrifying pressure, causing the Demons present to tremble in their souls.
The old man spoke, his voice deep and resonant. "Soon, the Demon Venerable will send a group of powerful individuals to join our Blood Sea Hall. This era of great strife is also our time to prove our path. From now on, you will all obey my arrangements."
"I will obey your orders."
All the Demons were filled with fanaticism.
After joining the Blood Sea Hall, they obtained supreme Devil Cultivation Method, and their cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds. If they could attain enlightenment amidst the changing circumstances, they would achieve Changsheng.
"Dharma Guardian, great Guardian, proceed according to the plan."
"Yes."
Hundreds of Demons responded.
"Song Guardian, Protector Yang, and Protector Yun, your Branch Hall is responsible for dealing with the Taihua Sacred Ground. You will also have powerful figures from the Demon Realm assisting you."
"Yes, sir."
The two male Guardian and the one female Guardian agreed.
At Yuntai Peak of Mount Taihua, after the daily lessons from the Lin Clan Ancestor, Lu Changsheng returned to his cave and bestowed a magical artifact upon Xu Jing, hoping to obtain a powerful artifact that could conceal his aura.
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Xu Jing the Lower-Grade Sacred Artifact "Tortoise Shell Garment," and received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward mentoring: the Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact "Dragon Turtle Battle Armor."]
[Dragon Turtle Battle Armor: Defensive Law Treasure Law Treasure from the shell of a dragon turtle. It possesses extremely strong defensive capabilities, making it difficult even for Great Luo Golden Immortal to penetrate.]
"..."
Lu Changsheng wanted a magical Law Treasure to conceal his aura, but unexpectedly, the Law Treasure returned to him turned out to be Defensive Law Treasure.
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Xu Jing the Middle-Grade Sacred Artifact "Rock Tower," and received Ten-Thousandfold Return Reward mentoring: the Low-Grade Emperor Weapon "Divine Mountain Demon-Suppressing Pagoda."]
[Divine Mountain Demon-Suppressing Pagoda: Offensive Law Treasure that transforms into a nine-thousand-foot-tall mountain imbued with Law Power to suppress powerful enemies.]
"..."
The returned Law Treasure has been transformed into an offensive Law Treasure.
The Apprentice-Teaching Simulator is great in every way, except that it's too random. You have to explore it repeatedly to find out what will be returned.
Lu Changsheng then bestowed dozens more Law Treasures upon the recipients, but none of them were what he wanted.
[Ding! You have bestowed upon your Disciple Xu Jing the Upper-Grade Sacred Artifact "Divine Concealment Robe," and received a reward of Hundred-Millionfold Return the amount of the discipleship reward: the Ninth-Grade Dao Artifact "Fourth Realm Robe."]
[The Fourth Realm Robe: One of the Eternal Night assassin "Myriad Thoughts Emptiness" to Dao-Proving Law Treasure. When worn, it allows one to transcend the Three Realms and the Five Elements within a radius of 100 meters, hence the name "Fourth Realm Robe".]
Lu Changsheng was thrilled. He had finally received a useful Law Treasure, and it was even a Ninth-Grade Dao Artifact!
