What Gift Should I Give?
A sword mark stretching for thousands of miles tore open a hundred-foot-deep abyss.
If viewed from the void, it looks like a shocking scar.
Previously it was a duel of sword intent, but this one showcases Lu Changsheng's true strength.
The crowd was surprised, but not particularly shocked, because Lu Changsheng was already a Tribulation Transcending expert, and creating a sword mark that stretched for ten thousand miles was not a particularly remarkable thing.
The reason everyone was so surprised was because in this duel, everyone only saw the sword intent and not the actual Sword Qi.
"By my holy decree, Lu Changsheng of the Great Luo Holy Land has rendered meritorious service in repairing our Holy Land's sword manual. It has been unanimously decided by all the elders that a holy statue shall be erected for Lu Changsheng, making him the holy teacher of all the disciples of the Purple Azure Holy Land!"
The Purple Azure Holy Lord spoke slowly.
Although the disciples were somewhat surprised, compared to what had happened before, it didn't seem so shocking anymore.
"We obey!"
The disciples answered.
"Master of Immortality, would you be so kind as to come to the main hall for a gathering?"
The voice of the Purple Azure Holy Lord rang out.
Lu Changsheng was invited to the Purple Azure Great Hall.
At that moment, Lu Changsheng took a step and appeared directly inside the main hall.
At this moment, only the Purple Azure Holy Lord was in the main hall.
"Thank you Changsheng, Martial Nephew!"
As soon as Lu Changsheng entered the main hall, the Purple Azure Holy Lord bowed deeply to Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng did not dodge this bow.
He accepted this favor.
This is an immense favor, and Lu Changsheng deserves this bow.
After bowing.
The Purple Azure Holy Lord looked at Lu Changsheng and then slowly said, "Changsheng, Martial Nephew, if we're talking about treasures, the Purple Azure Holy Land doesn't have any. It can't compare to the Shu Gate Holy Land, which has a Sword Mountain. As for spirit medicine, I think they're nothing special to you, Changsheng, Martial Nephew. So before I ascend, you can make three requests of me. As long as these three requests don't infringe on the interests of the Purple Azure Holy Land, I will do whatever you ask."
The Purple Azure Holy Lord spoke with utmost seriousness.
To thank Lu Changsheng, he was willing to help Lu Changsheng complete three things.
"You flatter me, Your Holy Lord."
Lu Changsheng shook his head; he didn't need such a reward.
The Purple Azure Holy Lord shook his head and said, "Changsheng, Martial Nephew, the Purple Azure Holy Land can never repay this kindness. The Swordsmanship that Old Ancestor Zi Zhen and Old Ancestor Qing Cheng deduced over ten thousand years was ultimately incomplete. Today, with the perfect Swordsmanship of Changsheng, Martial Nephew, the Purple Azure Holy Land will surely soar to new heights."
"Therefore, these three things are not enough to repay your kindness. When I ascend to the Immortal Realm in the future, I am willing to do three more things for my Changsheng, Martial Nephew."
The Purple Azure Holy Lord is a very loyal and reasonable person.
Uphold this commitment.
Lu Changsheng initially wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he realized that he had indeed helped the Purple Azure Holy Land, a huge favor that would make most people feel embarrassed.
However, the three promises are alright. If I encounter some clueless person causing me trouble in the future, I can just ask the Purple Azure Holy Lord to help me solve it.
How prestigious is that?
Someone hired a hitman to kill someone.
He asked the Holy Lord to kill him.
Hiss!
That's fierce!
"But Changsheng, Martial Nephew, do you have any other insights or reflections?"
The Purple Azure Holy Lord spoke, asking curiously.
"The sword manual that I deduced at Sword Comprehension Cliff today is basically consistent with what I imagined, so there are no major errors. Holy Lord, please rest assured that since Changsheng has agreed to repair the sword manual, he will not hold back any secrets."
Lu Changsheng's words made the Purple Azure Holy Lord laugh awkwardly and say, "No, no, how could I think that way! Well, Changsheng, Martial Nephew, I won't thank you for your kindness. The entire Purple Azure Holy Land will remember this kindness."
Lu Changsheng didn't say anything, he just bowed in response.
After that, there were no other trivial matters, so Lu Changsheng took his leave.
Back at my lodgings.
Lu Changsheng began to carefully practice the Number One Sword Art in the World that he had learned today.
In fact, Lu Changsheng did have a hidden trick up his sleeve.
However, to be more precise, it's not exactly a case of hiding something.
In the Number One Sword Art in the World, the last two moves are the most crucial, especially the "no moves are better than moves" technique, which is the most important core.
It requires strong sword intent to support it. If the sword intent is not strong, and you encounter an enemy, you will be able to defeat them with no moves, and you will definitely die a miserable death.
However, Lu Changsheng did not say anything; he had to figure it all out himself.
Even if you explain, they might not understand.
Of course, the most important point is that Lu Changsheng is not a saint. He is ultimately a disciple of the Great Luo Holy Land, not a disciple of the Purple Azure Holy Land.
Repairing the sword manual is already an immense favor.
If we dedicate all our efforts to teaching, and one day the Purple Azure Holy Land surpasses the Great Luo Holy Land, wouldn't that be a waste of time and energy?
The Purple Azure Holy Lord would definitely not cause trouble for the Great Luo Holy Land.
But what about the next Purple Azure Holy Lord? And the one after that? And the one after that?
Given the limited resources of heaven and earth, why does the Central Province only have Ten Great Holy Lands?
Why not twelve holy sites? Sixteen holy sites? Thirty-two holy sites?
Why only the Ten Great Holy Lands?
Because of the allocation of resources, and even in the early days, there were only Great Sage in the Central Province. However, it was because of these Great Sages that countless sects fought each other, and the internal struggles were extremely fierce.
It took hundreds of thousands of years and countless deaths to finally establish the Ten Great Holy Lands.
The reason for maintaining balance is not only to stop the killing, but more importantly, to balance strength and resources.
But what if one day, a certain holy land suddenly becomes dominant and produces ten powerful figures similar to Qingyun Daoist?
At that time, it was natural that certain holy sites would monopolize certain resources.
Might makes right.
Strength is the only truth.
Lu Changsheng can help the Purple Azure Holy Land, but he won't help it without hesitation or wholeheartedly. He will help those who should be helped, but he won't be a pushover for those Lu Changsheng shouldn't be helped.
Holding back a secret is a sign of respect for the Great Luo Holy Land.
Given the logical flaws, Lu Changsheng quickly stopped thinking about it, otherwise the situation would have really taken a sudden turn.
Not only will traditional fighting and killing be phased out, but more importantly, Lu Changsheng doesn't like fighting.
Why would someone so handsome spend all his time fighting and killing?
Is it really meaningful to constantly raise your fists and declare that you are invincible?
Of course, the most important reason is that Lu Changsheng is afraid of pain.
In life, you're bound to encounter a few formidable rivals, right?
If a fight really breaks out, even if you win, what's the point of getting injured?
This is a good state of mind right now. I can recite poetry in my spare time, attend banquets, and listen to others' praise. Isn't that nice?
Therefore, after becoming familiar with the Swordsmanship, Lu Changsheng began to consider what to do next.
The next step is to go to the Exquisite Holy Land to celebrate the birthday of the Exquisite Holy Lord.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng fell into deep thought.
Since it's a birthday celebration...
We should at least send something, right?
The other party clearly didn't value what the Great Luo Holy Land had prepared for them.
The items from the Langya Secret Realm are not something that can be easily taken out.
The moment it was taken out, its true nature was revealed.
Lu Changsheng pondered carefully.
What kind of gift could possibly make a 6,000-year-old woman happy?
Meanwhile.
Behind Sword Comprehension Cliff.
Some True Disciple of the Purple Azure Holy Land came into the rift.
They came to witness the power of Lu Changsheng's Sword Qi.
But when they arrived at the crevice, everyone was shocked once again.
