One Sword Once Held Off a Million-Strong Army! (4K)

"Young Friend Lu, the jade hairpin you requested has been completed."

Elder Wu truly lives up to his reputation as Second-Grade Artifact Refining Grandmaster; he can even Artifact Refining materials of the Taiyin Cold Jade level without taking much time.

Elder Wu even specially crafted a Divine Wood, after all, Lu Changsheng had given him so much.

Lu Changsheng accepted the wooden box, which exuded the fragrance of Divine Wood. The box was made of extremely high-quality wood, befitting the jade hairpin crafted from Taiyin Cold Jade.

Elder Wu was still savvy in his dealings with people.

Knowing that Lu Changsheng's growth rate meant it was only a matter of time before he became Great Expert, and that Lu Changsheng would most likely seek his help to refine Law Treasure in the future, Elder Wu naturally treated him well.

Lu Changsheng pushed open the lid of the wooden box, and inside lay an exquisite jade hairpin. Its texture was delicate, and a chill emanated from it, calming his mind.

A jade hairpin crafted from "Taiyin Cold Jade," Twenty-First-Grade Artifact Refining material, is far more valuable than ordinary Law Treasure and even rarer than Dao Artifacts.

After all, who would be willing to use a top-grade Artifact Refining material like "Taiyin Cold Jade" to polish into an ornament?

Seeing that the jade hairpin was not made with any shortcuts, Lu Changsheng was quite impressed with the skill level of the Elders of the Heavenly Fire Holy Land. The Heavenly Fire Holy Land truly lived up to its reputation as Holy Land for Artifact Refining.

Lu Changsheng put away the wooden box and tentatively asked, "I wonder if Elder Wu has ever heard of the Ancient Star Core as a refining material?"

Elder Wu's eyes lit up. "Could it be that Young Friend Lu has such Artifact Refining materials?"

"I've only ever seen it in ancient books. It's said to be one of the finest materials for Artifact Refining in the Three Realms, but unfortunately, I've never seen such a treasure in person. Since your Heavenly Fire Holy Land is the most famous Artifact Refining Holy Land in the Immortal Realm, you should have such materials, right?"

"This... this is a very important matter, and I cannot disclose it."

Elder Wu didn't say it explicitly, but he hinted that the Heavenly Fire Holy Land possessed ancient star cores as a refining material.

"I wonder if a second-grade master craftsman has the ability to forge magical artifacts using ancient star cores?"

"Ancient star cores are the most superior refining materials in the Three Realms. What merit do I possess to be able to use ancient star cores to refine magical artifacts? If I were that skilled, I would already be a first-grade weapon refiner."

"Only First-Grade Artifact Refiner can do it...?"

Lu Changsheng knew that there were people in the Immortal Realm who could use the Alioth Star Core to forge Law Treasures, and that was enough.

At least now that he has the Alioth Star Core, he will have a place to use it.

Elder Wu asked with a strange expression, "You don't actually have the Star Core of Ancient Star, do you?"

"Elder Wu, now that the matter is settled, I shall take my leave."

Lu Changsheng did not respond directly to Elder Wu, but instead turned around and went back home, leaving Elder Wu standing there dumbfounded.

"This kid, he actually does have one?"

Elder Wu stood alone, disheveled in the autumn wind.

Lu Changsheng returned to Taihua Mountain, preparing to lead the team to the Moon Palace.

Xia Ningxue's ascension to the Moon Palace Master is a major event, and Lu Changsheng must attend.

Lu Changsheng flew on his sword, soaring through the air and occasionally observing the various aspects of human life below.

"Um?"

Lu Changsheng saw below that the Imperial City of a Human Race dynasty had been breached by rebel forces, and a female sword immortal was leading the Imperial Guards in a bloody battle, surrounded by rebels who outnumbered them a hundredfold.

Although the enemy outnumbered them, the female swordswoman was highly skilled. Leading several hundred Imperial Guards, she held the last Corner Tower of the Imperial Palace, and enemy soldiers were constantly being killed by her Sword Qi, leaving corpses strewn all over the place.

"Zeng Birou, your father has been killed by me. If you surrender obediently and become my queen, I may spare your life!"

A bloated figure appeared, his large hands grabbing the heads of two Imperial Guards generals. With a slight exertion, the heads of the two Heavenly Immortal Realm Imperial Guards generals shattered, their deaths gruesome.

This obese middle-aged man was surrounded by Blood Sha.

"Immortal Emperor Third Stage!"

"Prince An's cultivation level is terrifying!"

The remaining Imperial Guards soldiers all showed fear in their eyes when they saw that the rebel leader possessed the terrifying cultivation of Immortal Emperor Third Stage.

In the eyes of these soldiers, who were not even Earth Immortals or Loose Immortals, Prince An, Immortal Emperor Third Stage, was no different from a god who could turn the world upside down with a flick of his wrist.

"Prince An, your cultivation is clearly inferior to mine. Which faction have you allied yourself with, and how has your strength increased so rapidly?"

The female swordswoman, known as Zeng Birou, wielded a three-foot- Long Sword and killed thirteen Swordsmen from the Prince An's Residence. Knowing her predicament was dire, she still wanted to unravel the mystery before her death.

Prince An's strength increased too rapidly, and his Prince An's Residence had many more experts. It was with the help of these experts that the rebels defeated the Imperial Guards, and even the emperor was killed in the chaos of battle.

"Since things have come to this, there's no harm in telling you. I've joined the Blood Sea Hall, a terrifying entity. Before it, your father is nothing but an ant."

Prince An sized up Zeng Birou with Divine Fire, and soon the entire country and she would be Prince An possession.

Blood Sea Hall?

Lu Changsheng, who was passing by, originally didn't want to get involved, but upon hearing about the Blood Sea Hall, he had no choice but to intervene.

"I never imagined that the Blood Sea Hall would extend its reach even to ordinary Human Race Dynasties. The Blood Sea Hall is planning to seize resources from the Immortal Realm by any means necessary."

Lu Changsheng roughly guessed the Blood Sea Hall's intentions.

However, the Blood Sea Hall expanded far too quickly.

Many Xiuzhenzhe in the Immortal Realm who crave power to achieve their goals are quickly absorbed by the Blood Sea Hall, which is why the Blood Sea Hall has expanded so rapidly.

Every human being has a dark side, and when coerced or lured by the Blood Sea Hall, they can easily join it.

"Father, I am unable to avenge you."

Zeng Birou face, tinged with helplessness and despair, gripped the sword in her backhand, deciding to commit suicide.

"Hmph, you want to commit suicide? It's not that easy."

Prince An's finger strike sent Zeng Birou's Long Sword flying.

Zeng Birou was merely Great Luo Golden Immortal, far inferior to Prince An in terms of cultivation level.

Zeng Birou wanted to self-destruct, but found that the space was imprisoned, she could not move, and her True Qi almost stopped flowing.

"The difference between you and me is like the difference between clouds and mud. If I want you to die, you cannot live. If I don't want you to die, you cannot die. This is the difference between the Immortal Emperor Realm and the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm."

Prince An had long coveted his niece; how could he allow her to commit suicide so easily?

A glistening tear streamed down Zeng Birou's fair cheeks as she closed her eyes in despair.

Her father was killed by Prince An, and she was destined to become his spoils of war, but she was powerless to stop it.

"Hahaha, you have all helped me achieve my great cause, so I grant you permission to plunder the entire city for three days!"

"Long live!"

The rebels shouted "Long live the leader!"

For the next three days, they could burn, kill, and loot with impunity.

"My dear niece, from now on you will follow me, and I will never mistreat you."

Prince An walked over triumphantly, his fat hand reaching for Zeng Birou.

Suddenly, a figure appeared out of thin air between Prince An and Zeng Birou, blocking Prince An's fat hand with a sword sheath.

Lu Changsheng didn't even want to lift a finger, afraid of getting his hands dirty.

Who are you? How dare you interfere in my affairs?

Prince An's pupils contracted, and he quickly created distance.

The other party appeared silently, and it was clear at a glance that they were not someone to be trifled with.

Prince An was able to gain the favor of the Blood Sea Hall, lead the rebel army, and capture the Imperial City; he was certainly no incompetent fool.

He sensed danger.

An ordinary Daoist would not risk his life to fight against a million rebels single-handedly when the rebels had already occupied the Imperial City.

"I've always been fond of intervening in injustices, and since I've encountered this, I have no choice but to intervene."

Lu Changsheng spoke calmly and unhurriedly.

This Human Race dynasty was not very powerful; the Blood Sea Hall had only sent a group of Evil Cultivators at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm to serve as retainers of Prince An.

As for the million rebels, some of them were merely taxi drivers who had cultivated for decades, only slightly stronger than ordinary people.

Zeng Birou opened her eyes, never expecting that at the critical moment of life and death, someone would still be willing to stand up just to right this injustice.

"Attack! Kill this man, and I will reward you handsomely!"

Instead of acting rashly, Prince An instructed his three thousand retainers and a million rebel soldiers to use sheer numbers to kill Lu Changsheng.

The million-strong rebel army looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and swarmed forward.

They refused to believe that a million soldiers couldn't kill a single person!

"Kill!"

Three thousand retainers and a million rebel soldiers, wielding Law Treasures and weapons, pressed forward, the entire city adorned in golden armor!

Zeng Birou's face turned pale. "Master, the bandits are numerous and have many experts. Please leave to avoid being caught in the crossfire."

"Don't worry."

Lu Changsheng drew his sword with his right hand, and an incomparably vast Sword Qi swept forward.

"Ah!!"

Wherever the Sword Qi went, countless retainers and rebels were annihilated without any power to resist. Even their Law Treasures and weapons were shattered in the face of the vast Sword Qi.

Zeng Birou's pupils dilated.

The Sword Qi of this Daoist priest before me is terrifying.

With a single swing of the sword, a million rebels were annihilated, and rivers of blood flowed!

He fought across three thousand miles, and with a single sword, he once faced a million soldiers!

Zeng Birou witnessed this phenomenon firsthand.

This Daoist priest's cultivation level is unfathomable.

Clang!

The Netherflame Sword was sheathed, and corpses littered the ground all around; countless retainers and rebels had been killed.

Prince An's expression was contorted with panic.

The enemy merely swung his sword once, and 100,000 rebel soldiers were annihilated.

This was only because the other side did not want to affect the innocent mortals of the Imperial City; otherwise, this sword strike would have been enough to destroy the entire Imperial City and reduce a million rebels to nothing.

Before the powerful beings who stand at the pinnacle of the Three Realms, they are nothing but ants.

Lu Changsheng's gaze fell on Prince An.

"No!"

Prince An disregarded the rebel army and the throne that was about to be his, and immediately transformed into a streak of light, trying to escape.

"Hmph, trying to escape?"

Lu Changsheng's Movement Method were unpredictable; he vanished from his spot one moment and appeared before Prince An the next.

Prince An suffered the same fate as Zeng Birou before him, unable to move.

"Who exactly are you...?"

You have no right to know.

Lu Changsheng's Divine Sense transformed into a sharp blade, piercing into Prince An's Sea of Consciousness and forcibly searching for Prince An's Divine Sense.

This Prince An was originally Feudal King, but out of jealousy for his elder brother's throne, he secretly defected to the Blood Sea Hall. The Blood Sea Hall planted a group of Evil Cultivators, including Great Luo Golden Immortals and Heavenly Immortal Realm, into Prince An's Residence as retainers. They helped Prince An recruit soldiers and win over the people, and then launched an attack on the Imperial City, killing his elder brother.

"There are also branch altars of the Blood Sea Hall nearby, but unfortunately they are not the Main Altar."

Lu Changsheng was somewhat disappointed that he was unable to find any clues about the Blood Sea Hall Main Altar in Prince An's Sea of Consciousness.

If we could find out the exact location of the Blood Sea Hall's Main Altar, we could report it to the Heavenly Court and wipe out the Blood Sea Hall in one fell swoop, completely eliminating this threat.

With a thought from Lu Changsheng, Prince An's Sea of Consciousness collapsed, his eyes became empty, and his bloated body fell from the sky.

"Run!"

Upon seeing their master killed, the retainers of Prince An's Residence fled in panic.

Lu Changsheng unleashed twelve Talisman, each containing Talisman at the Immortal Emperor Realm. These puppets split into twelve groups to slaughter the Blood Sea Hall's retainers, leaving no one alive.

Unless there are special circumstances, Lu Changsheng usually eliminates problems completely to prevent future troubles.

"Your Imperial Princess, our crimes are heinous, we beg Your Highness to punish us!"

Seeing that Lu Changsheng had killed 100,000 people and 3,000 retainers with a single sword strike, and that even the strongest rebel Prince An, couldn't withstand a single blow, the other rebels quickly pleaded with Zeng Birou for mercy.

"If you obey my orders, I can spare your lives."

To Lu Changsheng's surprise, Zeng Birou chose to grant a general amnesty.

Why did you let them go?

Lu Changsheng secretly transmitted his voice.

Zeng Birou sighed softly, "The rebellion of Prince An has already caused immense suffering and death. The most urgent task is to quell the unrest and restore order as soon as possible, and then settle scores later."

Lu Changsheng greatly admired this Imperial Princess. She was meticulous and thoughtful. With Prince An dead, she would wait until the people were appeased and the dynasty was restored to order before purging the rebels.

"I am deeply grateful to the Daoist Master for saving me. After I have finished dealing with the affairs of the imperial court, I am willing to follow the Daoist Master and cultivate Immortal Method."

Zeng Birou knew that Lu Changsheng's Dao cultivation was far superior to hers, and might even have surpassed the Immortal Emperor Realm, reaching the legendary God King Realm. If she could follow Lu Changsheng to cultivate, perhaps she could ask about Changsheng.

Besides, with her father dead, the dynasty and its empire were no longer important to her, as everything had changed.

"I was merely passing by and was simply accumulating Merit along the way. I take my leave."

Changsheng Sect already has enough disciples; he can't train them all himself, so he doesn't want to recruit any more easily.

Lu Changsheng was merely passing by when he dealt with Prince An, which would bring him a lot of Merit. He had no intention of taking on a disciple.

Before Zeng Birou could try to persuade him to stay, Lu Changsheng had already mounted his Immortal Sword and continued on his journey.

"This humble woman has not yet inquired about your background, Master..."

Seeing Lu Changsheng leave in a hurry, leaving only a tall figure in her heart, Zeng Birou couldn't help but sigh softly.

A truly remarkable person is indeed remarkable; they do good deeds without ever seeking recognition.

"If we are fortunate enough to meet again in the future, Bi Rou is willing to go through fire and water for you, Daoist Master."

Zeng Birou made a grand vow.

Lu Changsheng quickly forgot about it.

He had intervened so many times that countless people had benefited from his Merit; Zeng Birou was just one of them, so Lu Changsheng didn't care.

The Heaven-Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, a Supreme-Grade Merit Law Treasure, continues to grow stronger due to the good deeds and virtuous acts of Lu Changsheng and his disciples.

Lu Changsheng returned to Taihua Mountain hairpin, preparing to lead the team to the Moon Palace.

This time, the Taihua Sacred Ground also gave the Moon Palace a lot of face, sending six elders, Lin Xuantong, Liu Yue'er, and Lin Qinghan to go together.

Lu Changsheng even brought all his disciples to attend the enthronement ceremony.
