Sword Twenty-One! (4K)
"When did this kid become so amazing?"
Li Heng was fighting the Bewitching Heart Devil Lord when she witnessed Lu Changsheng step on the Devil Lord Wuchang's face, stomping Devil Lord Wuchang into the ground. She was shocked by Lu Changsheng's strength.
The Devil Lord Wuchang is a notorious Great Demon in the Demon Realm.
Devil Lord Wuchang Li Heng wasn't confident she could defeat the Devil Lord Wuchang, who was Fifth-Grade God King.
However, the infamous Devil Lord Wuchang was trampled underfoot by Lu Changsheng.
"This kid's got something. Did he use Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill?"
The Guanghan Ancestor was fighting with a Blood Sea Hall Guardian when he saw that Lu Changsheng's cultivation had increased from the Immortal Emperor Fifth Stage to the Sixth-Grade God King, an improvement of eight realms. After careful consideration, he realized that only Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill could achieve this.
Even someone of the Guanghan Ancestor's caliber would find it difficult to produce a Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill.
And this kid actually has Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill!
Moreover, Lu Changsheng is truly formidable. Even though his cultivation has reached the Sixth-Grade God King level, his opponent is the Fifth-Grade God King, the Devil Lord Wuchang!
"Our Saintess of the Moon Palace possesses a secret; she is no ordinary person. Her dao companion is also no ordinary individual. Our Moon Palace is destined for greatness."
The Guanghan Ancestor was overjoyed when he thought of Xia Ningxue, the Saintess of the Moon Palace, and her dao companion Lu Changsheng, both of whom were Peerless Genius.
These geniuses, once they grow up, will be no less powerful than their ancestors.
"It's him?" Ku recognized Lu Changsheng. "But why has his cultivation level risen to the Sixth-Grade God King realm? He must have consumed Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill!"
Ku's expression changed.
Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill!
Even if he were the Heavenly Emperor's Son, he would still have to please the Heavenly Emperor before the Heavenly Emperor might bestow upon him a top-grade treasure like the Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill.
"Hateful!"
The Devil Qi of the Devil Lord Wuchang, but Lu Changsheng dodged it.
After consuming the Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill, Lu Changsheng's cultivation level temporarily rose to the Sixth-Grade God King, still one realm lower than the Devil Lord Wuchang.
The Devil Lord Wuchang was attacked by Lu Changsheng, which is why Lu Changsheng stepped on his face.
Enraged, the Devil Lord Wuchang's forehead veins bulged, his palms turned black, and a torrent of Devil Qi was released through his palm strikes. "Ten Thousand Thoughts Ashen Palm!"
Lu Changsheng drew his right hand, and the Azure Emperor Sword appeared behind him, landing in his grasp. "One Sword Across the Ages!"
The sword intent of the Third Sword Realm was released, and a vast Sword Qi seemed to split the Firmament in two.
Lu Changsheng's cultivation level rose to the Sixth-Grade God King. He used the Taihua Sacred Ground's Sect-Guarding Secret Art, and the power of "One Sword Across the Ages" increased more than tenfold, making it extremely terrifying.
"Even Lin Xuantong might not be my match, and you think you can withstand my 'Ten Thousand Thoughts Ashen Palm'?"
The Devil Lord Wuchang consumed a Demon Pill, making his palm strike even stronger.
The Sword Qi unleashed by the Azure Emperor Sword trembled violently, being destroyed and annihilated by the Ten Thousand Thoughts Ashen Palm.
The palm strike of the Ten Thousand Thoughts Ashen Palm even pierced through the radiant barrier of the Heaven-Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, striking Lu Changsheng's body.
Lu Changsheng's Innate Dao Body was struck by the palm force of the Devil Lord Wuchang, and cracks even appeared.
Lu Changsheng had cultivated the "Azure Emperor Longevity Art" to its peak, but he still could not withstand the attacks of the Devil Lord Wuchang.
"It's a pity that the Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill can only improve cultivation level, not temporarily improve Cultivation Method. Otherwise, if I cultivated the 'Eternal Ages Immortality Art' to its peak, the Devil Lord Wuchang would be no match for me."
Lu Changsheng knew that the "Azure Emperor Longevity Art" Impervious to Ten Thousand Arts at the Immortal Emperor Realm, making it difficult to be injured.
However, even if one cultivates the Top-Grade Emperor-Grade "Azure Emperor Longevity Art" to its great perfection, it is still no match for a Great Demon Devil Lord Wuchang God King Realm.
The Devil Lord Wuchang is a confidant of the Illusory Netherworld Demon Venerable, and his strength is on par with that of the Taihua Sacred Lord and the Moon Palace Master.
Only by cultivating the "Eternal Ages Immortality Art" to its greatest perfection can one crush the Devil Lord Wuchang.
The Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill can only improve cultivation level, but cannot improve the realm of Body Tempering Cultivation Method.
"Lu Lang, let's join forces to deal with him."
Xia Ningxue took the initiative to come to Lu Changsheng's Lu Changsheng and fight alongside him. Her left hand held the Ink Snow Sword, the blade of which gleamed with a cold light.
"Xue'er, without Divine Pill to enhance your cultivation, dealing with the Devil Lord Wuchang is too dangerous for you."
"Let me try."
Xia Ningxue attempted to mobilize the Divine Maiden Power deep within her Divine Sense.
Xia Ningxue had already sensed a strange power deep within her Divine Sense.
When one of the progenitors of the Moon Palace attempted to possess another's body, it was the Divine Maiden Power deep within her Divine Sense that obliterated the other's soul, thus saving Xia Ningxue.
Xia Ningxue's aura suddenly changed, and a cool, Divine Maiden aura spread out. Xia Ningxue's eyes became slightly vacant, but her cultivation level was rapidly improving, eventually stabilizing at the Sixth-Grade God King realm.
Xia Ningxue is indeed no ordinary person.
Lu Changsheng had long believed that Xia Ningxue was a special genius, but he never expected that Xia Ningxue also possessed the Divine Maiden Power.
Xia Ningxue possesses two powers within her body: one is the Divine Maiden Power deep within her Divine Sense, and the other is the accumulated power of several lifetimes of a Guanghan Ancestor residing in her Dantian.
Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue both reached the Sixth-Grade God King realm, standing like two sharp Divine Swords between Heaven and Earth.
"Xue'er, use the Holy Spirit Swordsmanship, Sword Twenty-One."
Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue, sharing the same sentiment, decided to use the Dual Cultivation Swordsmanship "Holy Spirit Swordsmanship" bestowed upon them by the Apprentice-Teaching Simulator.
The Holy Spirit Swordsmanship Technique has twenty-three levels.
At the Immortal Emperor Realm, the two can only use Sword Nineteen.
Now, their cultivation has been temporarily raised to the Sixth-Grade God King realm, which is enough for them to use Sword Twenty-One.
"Um."
With a thought, Xia Ningxue channeled her True Qi into the Ink Snow Sword, causing it to unleash Sword Qi that shimmered in black and white.
Lu Changsheng activated the "Purple Tenuity Heavenly Fire True Art," channeling the Purple Tenuity True Qi into the Azure Emperor Sword. The Azure Emperor Sword burst forth with blue and red flames, its Sword Qi soaring straight to the heavens.
Their Daoist Robes and skirts fluttered in the gale as they fought side by side, like a divine couple.
Sword Twenty-One's sword intent formed a Sword Qi Barrier, within which everything stood still, Devil Lord Wuchang was as if bound to a bronze pillar, at the mercy of others.
"What kind of Swordsmanship is this?"
Li Heng, Guanghan Ancestor, and the other Xiuzhenzhe were greatly surprised when they sensed the terrifying sword intent of Sword Twenty-One of the Holy Spirit Swordsmanship.
This Dual Cultivation Swordsmanship does not belong to Taihua Mountain, nor to the Moon Palace; it is the unique skill of Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue.
The two used the Holy Spirit Swordsmanship Technique simultaneously, multiplying its power several times over.
"How is that possible!"
Ku found this hard to accept.
Xia Ningxue took the initiative to fight alongside Lu Changsheng, and her attitude towards him was clearly different from his.
Moreover, Xia Ningxue and Lu Changsheng's level of understanding was so high that it was as if the two of them had become one.
As the Heavenly Emperor's Son, Ku had been able to have whatever he wanted from childhood to adulthood.
But Xia Ningxue, who is comparable to Divine Maiden and is unique, belongs to Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng also possessed the Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill, the "Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill."
For the first time, Ku realized that he might be inferior to others.
Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue unleashed their Sword Qi at the Devil Lord Wuchang.
The Sword Qi Sword Twenty-One not only attacks the physical body, but also the soul.
Damn it!
"Ten Thousand Thoughts Ashen Palm!"
The Devil Lord Wuchang desperately unleashed his palm strikes, attempting to struggle.
However, within the Sword Domain of the two, the Devil Lord Wuchang was unable to unleash his full power. His overwhelming Devil Qi force was shattered by the two crushing Sword Qi pierced through the Devil Lord Wuchang's Ten-Thousand-Forged Demon Body.
The Ten-Thousand-Forged Demon Body, tempered through nine thousand layers, was actually cut into three pieces.
Along with the Ten-Thousand-Forged Demon Body, the soul of the Devil Lord Wuchang was also severed.
A Demon has fallen.
Whether it was the Blood Sea Hall, the powerful figures from the Demon Realm, or the righteous forces, everyone was shocked.
Such a powerful being as the Devil Lord Wuchang was actually killed by two juniors so easily.
"Oh no, we have to retreat!"
Seeing the fall of the Devil Lord Wuchang, the Bewitching Heart Devil Lord Demon Lord, along with the two Peerless Genius Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue, and the Heavenly Emperor's Son possessed the power of God King, stepped forward.
The number of powerful figures in the Immortal Realm has surpassed that of those in the Demon Realm and the Blood Sea Hall.
The Demon Realm expert who was fighting against the Heavenly Court experts unleashed a dark red Demon Pagoda, which absorbed the Demon Realm experts and the Blood Sea Hall members present into the Law Treasure. Then, he tore through space and disappeared from the spot.
This Demon Realm demon was even stronger than the Devil Lord Wuchang, and the Heavenly Court experts who fought him were unable to stop him.
The Heavenly Court sent a Third-Grade God King to protect Ku, but the Demon Realm also had Third-Grade God King who restrained him.
This powerful Heavenly Court expert, a Third-Grade God King Realm, was a lean and capable old man. After the Demon Realm and Blood Sea Hall experts fled, he came before Ku and apologized. "I am incompetent and almost caused Your Highness's death. Please punish me, Your Highness."
He broke out in a cold sweat.
If it weren't for Li Heng and Xia Ningxue, the master and disciple from the Moon Palace, saving Ku, the Heavenly Emperor would have been furious if Ku had been killed by the Devil Lord Wuchang, and both the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm would have been plunged into bloodshed.
Although a war between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm is inevitable after the Qianyuan Grotto-Heaven incident, the Heavenly Court needs to make preparations.
The Heavenly Emperor is enraged and may retaliate against the Demon Realm without regard for the consequences, leaving the major Holy Lands with little time to prepare.
As Ku's bodyguard, if Ku were killed, he would be more likely to be exiled by the Heavenly Emperor, or even eliminated.
Even though he was Third-Grade God King, he was completely powerless against the Heavenly Emperor, the strongest being in the Immortal Realm.
"We were ambushed; it's not your fault."
Ku's attention was focused on Xia Ningxue, and he didn't bother arguing with the Old Servant.
After Xia Ningxue and Lu Changsheng dealt with the Devil Lord Wuchang, the Divine Maiden Power that she barely controlled returned to the depths of her Divine Sense, and her realm dropped to the Immortal Emperor Fourth Stage.
However, the temporary promotion to the Sixth-Grade God King allowed Xia Ningxue to experience the Great Dao insights of the Sixth-Grade God King, from which she benefited greatly.
The same applies to Lu Changsheng.
The Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill not only temporarily boosts one's cultivation level, but also allows Lu Changsheng to experience the essence of the Sixth-Grade God King realm, making future Tribulation Transcendence much easier.
The effects of the Ancestral Dragon Blood Pill wore off, Lu Changsheng returned to the Immortal Emperor Fifth Stage.
"The Sword Twenty-One of the Holy Spirit Swordsmanship is enough to kill Fifth-Grade God King; the supreme twenty-third sword technique is unimaginable."
Lu Changsheng knew that this Swordsmanship was one of his trump cards.
If he and Xia Ningxue continue to cultivate, they will be able to comprehend Sword Twenty-Three.
At that time, we might be invincible.
"Xue'er, you..."
After the Bewitching Heart Devil Lord left, Li Heng asked Xia Ningxue what had happened.
Xia Ningxue shook her head. "There seems to be a strange power within my Divine Sense, which I do not know."
This matter must not be easily known to others.
Li Heng knew that Xia Ningxue might have a secret. This uncontrollable power couldn't be known by too many people, otherwise it might attract the covetousness of some people with ulterior motives.
"And you, how did you come to possess Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill used to enhance your strength?"
Li Heng's sharp eyes revealed that Lu Changsheng level was not his true strength, but rather an enhancement achieved through the use of Divine Pills.
"I know the Suxin Immortal Maiden of the Lianshan Holy Land."
Lu Changsheng continued to shift the blame onto the Pill Saint of Lianshan Holy Land.
Li Heng and the Guanghan Ancestor suddenly realized.
I see.
No wonder Lu Changsheng has Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill. If he were to meet the youngest Pill Saint in the history of Lianshan Holy Land — Suxin Immortal Maiden —then Lu Changsheng might actually be able to obtain Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill from Suxin Immortal Maiden, because Suxin Immortal Maiden truly does possess Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill.
Li Heng suddenly frowned and transmitted her voice to Lu Changsheng: "Boy, Xue'er from our Moon Palace treats you very well. Don't let Xue'er down for the sake of the Divine Pill."
Lu Changsheng was speechless.
It seems that Li Heng, the Moon Palace Master, has misunderstood. She thinks that Lu Changsheng and Suxin Immortal Maiden have some kind of relationship, which is why he obtained the Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill.
It should be known that refining a Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill requires countless rare and precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
Even the Pill Saint of the Lianshan Holy Land wouldn't give away Twenty-First-Grade Divine Pill for no reason.
It's no wonder Li Heng thought of going elsewhere.
"Please rest assured, Your Palace Master, I will not let Xue'er down."
Moon Palace is, after all, Xia Ningxue's half-family home, so Lu Changsheng needs to clarify things, otherwise rumors will spread to Lianshan Holy Land.
Li Heng nodded. She took stock of the losses of the Moon Palace team; several powerful individuals had perished in the Qianyuan Grotto-Heaven.
As the Moon Palace Master, Li Heng was inevitably saddened by the death of someone from the Moon Palace.
Ku led the powerful figures from the Heavenly Court over and said to Li Heng and Xia Ningxue, "Our escape from danger this time is largely thanks to the assistance of your Moon Palace. Our Heavenly Court will certainly repay you handsomely."
Li Heng said calmly, "As the Heavenly Emperor's Son, your status is noble and cannot be compromised. Although the relationship between our various Holy Lands and the Heavenly Court was not very harmonious at one time... that is all in the past. We, the people of the Immortal Realm, should help each other. As for rewards, that is unnecessary."
"This prince will always repay any kindness shown to him."
Ku looked at Xia Ningxue and Lu Changsheng.
When he met Lu Changsheng's gaze again, there was a hint of hostility in his eyes.
He finally began to regard Lu Changsheng as a rival.
Although Lu Changsheng's true cultivation level was not as high as his, he had a feeling that Lu Changsheng would soon catch up with him.
Someone actually dared to challenge his status as the number one genius in the Immortal Realm.
Moreover, Lu Changsheng possessed something he lacked— Xia Ningxue.
As the Heavenly Emperor's Son, he could not accept that there were beings with even better conditions than him.
Only by suppressing all enemies in the world can one be qualified to become the Heavenly Emperor who rules the Immortal Realm.
Because the current Heavenly Emperor is the strongest being in the Immortal Realm.
If Ku wants to become the next Heavenly Emperor, he must trample all the strong under his feet.
Lu Changsheng frowned.
He sensed the unnatural expression on the Heavenly Emperor's Son as he looked at Xia Ningxue.
That's the expression of a simp.
The opponent is the Heavenly Emperor's Son, a formidable foe.
Once my cultivation level improves, I need to find an opportunity to beat him up, preferably in a public and aboveboard setting, so that the Heavenly Court can't retaliate against him openly.
Lu Changsheng was already thinking about how to scientifically beat up the Heavenly Emperor's Son.
