Background

Lu Changsheng arrived at Three Immortal Island intending to confess to Bixiao, but mistakenly confessed to Yunxiao instead. When Yunxiao's reaction aggravated his already severe breakthrough injuries, he exploited her guilt and secured her agreement to become his Dao Companion. 4

Initially an unremarkable Jie Sect outer disciple, he relied on the System, System Space, cultivation resources, and increasingly dangerous opportunities to accelerate his growth. His early rise was marked by stealing the Xuanling Fruit from Huanglong Zhenren's plans, defeating the Yin Yang Twin Flood Dragons, and repeatedly humiliating Huanglong in battle. 10 26 27

His defeat of Dingguang Xian earned Tongtian's attention. After winning a quota-arena battle against Wuyunxian at Golden Immortal Peak, Lu Changsheng was named Tongtian's fifth personal disciple and received the Green Lotus Cushion and Heart Piercing Lock. 41 56 61

Appearance

Lu Changsheng is a human cultivator typically seen in white daoist robes. His body and eyes manifest obvious thunderly traits when he employs his body-tempering arts. 26 322

• His eyes can transform into lightning pupils. 39
• Lightning patterns emerge across his skin when activating his thunder body. 162
• He has been described as slightly gaunt following difficult battles. 26

Personality

Lu Changsheng is calculating, opportunistic, and exceptionally pragmatic. He judges challenges by their value rather than pride; when Huanglong Zhenren demanded a duel, Lu refused until Yuanshi offered a reward worth accepting. 159 160

He is also openly provocative toward enemies, especially Chan Sect cultivators. He repeatedly exploits opponents' arrogance, taunts them into mistakes, and is willing to seize their treasures after defeating them. 73 89 303

His ruthlessness is balanced by fierce protectiveness toward Yunxiao and the Jie Sect. Yunxiao's injury at Zhunti's hands provoked him into confronting a Saint, while threats to the Sanxiao repeatedly pushed him to gamble his own safety and treasures. 254 297 298

Abilities & Skills

Story Role / Major Arcs

Rise within the Jie Sect

Lu Changsheng advances from an outer disciple to a recognized prodigy by defeating Dingguang Xian, Wuyunxian, and Chan Sect opponents despite lower cultivation. His victory over Wuyunxian earns him a place in the Jie–Chan Discuss Dao and Tongtian's acceptance as a personal disciple. 41 59 61

Jie–Chan Discuss Dao

At Kunlun Mountain, Lu defeats Lingbao Grand Master, Chijingzi, and Huanglong Zhenren before turning the tide against Guangchengzi. By temporarily reaching Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, he breaks Guangchengzi's defenses, seizes the Central Wuji Apricot Yellow Banner, and secures victory for the Jie Sect. 73 88 90

Conflict with the Chan Sect

Yuanshi repeatedly uses Huanglong Zhenren, Nanjixianweng, poison, formations, and Spiritual Sense Clones against Lu. Lu survives these schemes, defeats Nanjixianweng, kills Yuanshi's clone, and takes the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree and Three Treasures Jade Ruyi. 160 167 340 345

North Sea and Western Sect Hostilities

Lu opposes Maitreya and Zhunti during the North Sea Divine Ao incident, then fakes his death through the Taixu Twin Arts to provoke Tongtian's retaliation against the Western Sect. He later returns to aid Nuwa in mending the heavens and gains her promise of future assistance. 251 259 271 287

Battle against Ancestor Minghe

When Ancestor Minghe captures the Sanxiao to lure him into a trap, Lu surrenders treasures to secure their safety, fakes his death again, breaks the karmic-fire prison, defeats Minghe, seizes control of the Blood River Great Formation, and seals him within the Primordial Chaos Myriad Manifestations Diagram. 298 300 305 310

Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal

After genuinely entering the Primordial Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm, Lu becomes capable of confronting Heavenly Dao Saints directly. He defeats Jieyin, Zhunti, and Yuanshi's combined schemes, obtains the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda, and forces Hongjun to withdraw Tongtian's Yunsheng Pill in exchange for Jieyin's release. 384 421 429 432

Duel with Laozi

Lu enters Hongjun's isolated battle space to face Laozi. He raises his cultivation to the Seventh Heaven through two secret arts, counters Laozi's treasures with multiple Innate Supreme Treasures, destroys Laozi's physical body with the Sun-Slaying Sword, and takes the Pangu Banner and Taiji Diagram. 469 471 474

“Anyone who harms my Dao Companion has only one fate: death!” 451

Trivia

• Lu's early cultivation was considered limited because he began as an ordinary innate lifeform; he later repaired and upgraded his root to the level of a Top-tier Innate God and Devil. 104 110 157
• He intentionally sought Tongtian's attention by cultivating the Shangqing Divine Thunder to perfection, a feat no earlier Jie Sect disciple had achieved. 32 61
• His apparent deaths at the North Sea and Lingjun Island were both strategic deceptions rather than genuine defeats. 259 271 355
