The Rumor That Lu Yang Could Battle Across Three Great Realms

The governor took two deep breaths, barely suppressing the urge to kick his subordinate out.

You think people from the Ask Dao Sect are here to put you in a prison cell?

He glared at his subordinate and said, "Go and invite the disciples of the immortal sect. There are still a few empty guest rooms in the manor. Go and tidy them up. Set up Spirit Gathering Formation -Spirit Gathering Formation where needed, and place heart-nourishing stones where needed."

"Yes!"

Soon, three disciples from the immortal sect entered the government office. Two men and one woman were full of energy, their eyes revealing confidence.

The governor looked at the three disciples of the immortal sect and nodded secretly. As expected of disciples of the immortal sect, they were clearly outstanding individuals.

Achieving the Golden Core stage at such a young age—what terrifying talent!

The governor could tell that the three had just reached the Core Formation stage, and judging from the reply from the immortal sect, they were all under eighteen years old.

At the age of eighteen, they had all reached the Golden Core stage, and all of them had achieved the first grade of the Golden Core. Such a speed of cultivation is rare in history.

It seems that in the great struggles of the future, such outstanding individuals will be the protagonists of those great eras.

"Greetings, Your Excellency Governor. I am Lanting from the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace." Lanting was slender and graceful, her white robes fluttering in the wind, her eyes bright and sparkling like stars, her skirt trailing behind her as she walked.

"I am Bai Ming of the Five Elements Sect." Bai Ming's expression remained as cold as ever.

"Yan Tianzhi, of the Prison Suppressing Sect." Yan Tianzhi was a man of few words.

"I'll leave the judging of tomorrow's grand competition to my three junior disciples." The governor's face was beaming with smiles. Although the participants in tomorrow's competition were all of similar age, these three, as disciples of the immortal sect, possessed extraordinary knowledge and were more than capable of providing commentary on tomorrow's competition.

"We will certainly do our best."

"By the way, have you met the three junior disciples from the Ask Dao Sect?"

The three shook their heads. They had set off from their respective sects and met in Qingzhou, but had not seen anyone from the Ask Dao Sect.

"That's strange. The Ask Dao Sect replied to me saying that they would send two people this time, one named Lu Yang and the other named Meng Jingzhou. They are the two most outstanding talents of the Ask Dao Sect in this generation. Judging from the timeline, they should have arrived by now." The governor was puzzled and couldn't figure out the reason.

When Lan Ting heard the familiar name, she recalled the days when she ran a barbecue restaurant in Yanjiang County. She received a mission from her sect and tried every means to infiltrate the Immortal Sect. However, due to a timing error, she missed the Immortal Sect's recruitment period. Later, she met Lu Yang and his two companions and learned that the three of them had successfully joined the Immortal Sect.

In the end, she, Lu Yang, and the other two joined forces to kill the leader of the Yanjiang helm.

Lu Yang and his two companions also gained the appreciation of the higher-ups of the Immortal Sect, were promoted, and returned to their sect to report on their mission.

She was still thinking about whether to contact Lu Yang to ask if there was anything she could help with, and ideally, to take down another branch.

Unexpectedly, less than two months later, news came that the Immortal Cult had been destroyed.

When she heard the news, she was stunned for a long time, thinking she had heard a fake news.

It's only been two months!

Although the official story was that the Ask Dao Sect and the imperial court joined forces to destroy the Immortal Sect's stronghold, Lan Ting was certain that Lu Yang was definitely involved!

Later, when they went to a meeting at the Ask Dao Sect, the senior sister of the Ask Dao Sect proposed that she and Lu Yang get married. This scared her master so much that he grabbed her and ran away, afraid of being left behind.

I don't know why Master is so afraid of the senior sister of the Ask Dao Sect.

"I see..." The governor was worried, but then he felt relieved. Since the Ask Dao Sect's reply said that the two of them would come, they would definitely come. Maybe they would enjoy the grand ceremony today and go directly to the judges' table before the competition starts tomorrow.

That makes sense.

"By the way, the Hanging Temple asked me to pass on a message to the Governor. Originally, the Hanging Temple was going to send Brother Shi Chan over, but unfortunately, Brother Shi Chan encountered some accidents while spreading Buddhism and is unable to come. The Hanging Temple already has few people, so it is difficult to send anyone else."

The Zen master is the True Disciple of the Hanging Temple in modern times.

"Are you in danger? Do you need me to send someone to help?"

"It wasn't that it was dangerous, it's just that he could never understand the saying 'lay down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot,' so he joined a slaughterhouse to see if he could become a Buddha when he laid down the butcher's knife."

The governor hesitated for a long time, unable to find the words, and finally said, "It's getting late, the three young friends should go to my residence to rest."

After the governor left, Lanting suddenly asked, "Senior Brother Baiming, your expression changed when the governor mentioned Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. Do you know these two people?"

Bai Ming sighed, "I not only know him, I've even fought him."

"Senior Sister Lanting, you may not know this, but four months ago, my Five Elements Sect went to the Ask Dao Sect for an exchange. During the Foundation Establishment Realm competition, Lu Yang used the Samadhi True Fire, the Earth Escape Technique, and other Five Elements Law Technique. I pride myself on being the best among my peers in Five Elements Law Technique, but Lu Yang has the advantage over me in every aspect."

"When I was defeated, I had an epiphany and broke through the bottleneck, achieving a breakthrough in the midst of battle, reaching the Foundation Establishment Late Stage. What I didn't expect was that Lu Yang hadn't been serious at all. When he saw me break through in the midst of battle, he was like a different person. His eyes and actions changed. Before I could even make a move, I was defeated by him in one move. If my master hadn't intervened in time, I would have been either dead or seriously injured."

The Five Great Immortal Sects have a harmonious relationship, and their peers address each other as senior brothers and sisters.

"So strong!" Lan Ting exclaimed in surprise. She knew that Lu Yang had amazing Law Technique talent, but she didn't expect that Lu Yang could defeat Bai Ming in one move.

Yan Tianzhi's eyes widened, revealing an extremely surprised expression.

He had fought Bai Ming before; the opponent was proficient in marksmanship and the Five Elements Law Technique, making him extremely difficult to deal with in both ranged and melee combat. Could he really be defeated in one move?

"According to Master, Lu Yang used a High Antiquity divine Divine Ability that has been lost for generations—the Water-Avoiding Technique. Unless there is a special way to counter it, this move is unsolvable. It can drain the water out of the enemy's body and turn them into a dried-up corpse." Bai Ming recalled the scene of Lu Yang casually using the Water-Avoiding Technique and felt a chill of fear.

Judging from the way he casually displayed High Antiquity divine Divine Ability, it seemed that even if he could withstand the Water-Avoiding Technique, there were other great Divine Ability waiting for him.

"Not only that, the Grand Elder of the Ask Dao Sect personally admitted that Lu Yang, with only Foundation Establishment, challenged someone of a higher level."

Yan Tianzhi smiled, not taking it to heart. The fact that the three of them could challenge opponents of higher levels was nothing to brag about.

Bai Ming said in a deep voice, "He crossed three major realms in a row. When he was in the Foundation Establishment Realm, he defeated the Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and Spirit Transformation!"

Lan Ting and Yan Tianzhi were speechless with shock; leaping three levels was simply unbelievable.

Lan Ting recalled the battle where she and Lu Yang killed the leader of the Yanjiang branch. Lu Yang always seemed to be in complete control, so it turned out he hadn't been going all out.

"I suspect that when he challenged someone of a higher level, he relied on favorable timing, location, formations, and elixirs," Bai Ming analyzed. Otherwise, he couldn't imagine how Foundation Establishment Realm could defeat Spirit Transformation.

Nevertheless, being able to fight across three major realms is still an extremely terrifying feat.

At the very least, none of the three of them could do that.

"What a pity, we don't know where those two went."

"Perhaps we'll see him during the competition tomorrow."

The second update will be at 10:30 PM.
