Don't Push Us Too Far

Three months later, in a mountain range in the Liang Kingdom, Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue led a team that was surrounded by a dense horde of Elders and disciples of the Demon Sects.

"Hahaha, you dare to trespass on our Reincarnation Hall's main hall in the Liang Kingdom? You're courting death!"

"I want to enjoy watching the expressions of your agonizing struggles before you die."

"Strange, why aren't you afraid?"

The Elders and disciples of the Demon Sects, outnumbering and outmatched, surrounded the group from Shushan and Ask Immortal Pavilion. However, the people from Shushan and Ask Immortal Pavilion remained indifferent.

"Seven Dao Palace Realm cultivators. It seems the Reincarnation Hall's headquarters in the Liang Kingdom is quite powerful. Perfect, we can use you to test our skills."

Lu Changsheng made a Sword Art with his right hand, and the True Martial Sword emitted a clear Sword Cry as it soared into the sky. The terrifying pressure made the souls of many Elders and disciples of the Demon Sects tremble.

"Innate Spirit Treasure?!"

The Elders of the Demon Sects felt the oppressive power of the True Martial Sword, and their scalps tingled.

"Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect!"

Lu Changsheng used the same move again. His mastery of the Earth Stage High-Grade Swordsmanship, Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect, was already consummate. Sword Qi permeated the air, and ten thousand black and white Sword Qi swirled, forming a massive Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram.

"Is this the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect?"

The Elder of the Demon Sects Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect, was greatly surprised.

With the blessing of the Innate Spirit Treasure True Martial Sword, the power of the Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect to the Origin doubled, reaching unprecedented levels.

Ten thousand black and white Sword Qi pierced through, and one by one, the Elders and disciples of the Demon Sects were killed by the Sword Qi.

"I'll try my hand at the sword too."

Xia Ningxue summoned her Flying Sword. The Long Sword was drawn, and the bright Sword Qi illuminated the world. Ten thousand feet of Sword Qi energy soared into the sky, stirring up the wind and clouds!

"This is the Sect Master's Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, the Emotion-Cutting Sword!"

"The sect leader actually passed on his own Long Sword to the Holy Maiden!"

"Could it be that the Pavilion Master wants the Holy Maiden to become the next Pavilion Master? But wasn't the original Pavilion Master supposed to be Second Senior Sister?"

"With the Holy Maiden's potential, it's only a matter of time before she surpasses Second Senior Sister."

The group from the Ask Immortal Pavilion were also extremely surprised, because the Flying Sword Xia Ningxue used was the Law Treasure of the Pavilion Master of Ask Immortal Pavilion.

The intention Pavilion Master of Ask Immortal Pavilion passing on his Law Treasure to Xia Ningxue is quite clear.

Xia Ningxue's Emotion-Cutting Sword swept across, its divine might awe-inspiring. Elders and disciples of the Demon Sects died beneath its blade, vanishing into nothingness.

"Don't push your luck!"

"You call yourselves righteous, yet you dare to bully people with two Innate Spirit Treasures!"

"Go ahead and cause trouble for our Palace Master!"

The Elders of the Demon Sects roared in despair.

They thought they had successfully ambushed Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue's teams, but instead, they were wiped out by Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue.

With Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue's cultivation levels, plus two Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasures, they were more than capable of wiping out this stronghold.

Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure —this is Law Treasure possessed only by the sect Sect Master and Grand Supreme Elders.

Even if Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue couldn't unleash the full power of Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, even just activating a portion of their Law Power would be enough to make these Demon Sects Elders suffer.

"Your opponent is me!"

Lian's cultivation had reached the Fourth Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm, and she took the initiative to challenge an Elder at the Fifth Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm.

"You little girl, you're asking for it!"

The Demon Sects Elder at the Fifth Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm glared fiercely. It was one thing for powerful Dao Palace Realm experts like Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue to bully them using their Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasures, but how dare a young girl like Lian challenge a long-established Demon Sects Elder?

But the Elder of the Demon Sects soon regretted it.

With the Martial King Divine Physique, Lian was almost invincible in the same realm, even more ferocious than the Demon Sects Elder was a small realm higher than her. After the time it takes to drink three cups of tea, the Demon Sects Elder at the Fifth Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm perished.

Lotus is accumulating combat experience.

The other disciples of Shushan and Ask Immortal Pavilion also took the opportunity to kill Elders and disciples of the Demon Sects, either to accumulate experience or to accumulate Sect Contribution.

Under the counterattack of the people from Shushan and Ask Immortal Pavilion, the main hall of the Reincarnation Hall in the Liang Kingdom was destroyed, and all seven Dao Palace Realm Demon Sects Elders perished.

Clang.

The True Martial Sword and the Emotion-Cutting Sword returned to their sheaths almost simultaneously.

"Now that this matter is settled, I should return to Shushan."

After eliminating the Reincarnation Hall's stronghold in the Xia Kingdom, Lu Changsheng, together with Xia Ningxue, wiped out several of the Reincarnation Hall's strongholds in the Liang Kingdom, thus eliminating the Reincarnation Hall's threat to the Xia Kingdom and Liang Kingdoms.

It wasn't just Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue's teams; other Elders from Shushan and Ask Immortal Pavilion were also Elder teams to sweep through the strongholds of the Demon Sects in various countries.

Lu Changsheng completed his sect's mission, while his Disciple Lian completed her assessment mission, reaching the Fourth Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Until we meet again.

Xia Ningxue led the members of the Ask Immortal Pavilion back to the Ask Immortal Pavilion back.

"Master, why was your conversation with Elder Sister Xia so brief when you parted ways?"

On the way back to Shushan with Lu Changsheng, Lian couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity.

"With her talent, unless she perishes along the way, she will surely attain Changsheng. There will be plenty of opportunities to cooperate in the future, so there's no need for further words when we part."

"I see. I noticed that Elder Sister Xia is usually as cold as ice, but she communicates with Master quite a bit..."

Clang.

Lu Changsheng tapped Lian's little head. "Child, don't think too much, focus on your cultivation."

"Oh."

Lian rubbed her head in frustration.

She possessed the Martial King Divine Physique; Lu Changsheng's strength was merely a massage to her.

A few days later, Lu Changsheng returned to Shushan safely.

Lu Changsheng led a team to the Finance Pavilion to tally the merits of each disciple.

"Elder Lian, a total of ten Nascent Soul Realm Elders of the Demon Sects Nascent Soul Realm have been killed... ten! Demon Sects Elders!"

Elder Zhang, who was in charge of tallying the credits, stood there stunned when he heard Lu Changsheng's account.

Did he hear that right?

Lian had only recently been promoted to Elder of Shushan, and on her first training mission outside the mountain, she actually killed ten Elders from the Demon Sects!

Could it be that Elder Lu deliberately gave his credit to his disciple?

No, with Elder Lu's cultivation level, there's no need for that at all.

"Elder Lian, as the fifth youngest Elder in the history of Shushan, is exceptionally talented. It is not impossible for him to kill ten Demon Sects sect Elders at the Early Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm."

Elder Zhang reluctantly convinced himself that this was the truth.

"Elder Lu killed the Miejian, the Juejian, the White Bone Old Devil, the Old Man Xuelian, and the Old Man Tianzhu of the Reincarnation Hall... That's impossible, isn't it?"

Elder Zhang found it even more unbelievable; this list of deceased Elders from the Reincarnation Hall consisted of well-known figures from the Demon Sects.

Are all of them dead?

"Absolutely true."

The newly promoted Dao Palace Elder of Lu Changsheng's team patted his chest and guaranteed it.

He personally witnessed Lu Changsheng's terrifying cultivation level. Lu Changsheng's descent from the mountain resulted in the near-total loss of the younger generation of Elders in the Reincarnation Hall.

"This is no small matter; I need to report it to the Sect Master."

Elder Zhang wiped the sweat from his brow. With so many renowned Elders of the Reincarnation Hall killed, the Reincarnation Hall might be enraged and try to retaliate in a major incident.

After truthfully recounting the contributions of each Shushan Elder and disciple in the team, Lu Changsheng returned to Azure Cloud Peak with Lian to continue his cultivation.

Lu Changsheng plans to devote himself to cultivation and break through to the Dao Palace Realm Ninth Layer.

"Disciple respectfully welcomes Master back to the mountain."

The Eldest Disciple, Lin Qingzhi, had already returned to Azure Cloud Peak ahead of time and remained the most respectful disciple to Lu Changsheng.

The Third Disciple Mo Huazhi, has also made progress in his cultivation during this period, and is currently at the Fifth Layer of the Golden Core Realm.
