Chapter 285: Chapter 275: The Underestimated Sect Leader of Mount Shu (4K)_2
"Wait a minute, you..."
The Penglai Fairy\'s attention shifted to Xia Ningxue, and she was shocked to see that Xia Ningxue\'s realm had actually reached the fourth layer of the Unity Realm, causing her pupils to tremble.
She couldn\'t understand how the cultivation of Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue could have advanced so rapidly?
What also surprised the Penglai Fairy were Lu Changsheng\'s disciples. One hundred and forty years ago, they were only at the Great Accomplishment of Dao Palace Realm or at the initial stage of the Void Refinement Realm, but now their cultivation was almost reaching the Great Accomplishment of the Void Refinement Realm.
It should be known that Taiyuan Zhenren cultivated for three thousand years and only reached the peak of the Void Refinement Realm, barely stepping into the Unity Realm.
Yet Lu Changsheng\'s disciples had made such progress over just a hundred years?
Unless there was a strong cultivator in the Unity Realm constantly giving them Power-infusing Initiation, it would be possible for their cultivation speed to be ten times that of ordinary people.
"The most beautiful woman of Luzhou, the Penglai Fairy, is actually so polite to the Sect Leader of Mount Shu? With her qualifications, she will sooner or later reach Great Accomplishment in the Unity Realm. Even if Sect Leaders at the fifth or sixth layer of the Unity Realm chatted her up, she would usually ignore them.
Yet, surprisingly, she is so courteous to the average-strength Sect Leader of Mount Shu."
"The cultivation of Mount Shu\'s Sect Leader is far inferior to mine. The Penglai Fairy ignores me but pays attention to a pretty boy. Could it be that even a fairy of the Unity Realm is swayed by looks?"
A sect powerhouse carrying a precious saber crossed his arms before his chest, his face full of disdain.
If it were not for the fact that this place was the Star Pavilion, a critical location of the sect that did not allow disturbances, he would probably have taught Lu Changsheng, whom he saw as a pretty boy of Mount Shu\'s Sect Leader, a lesson.
"The Sect Master Kuangdao from the Profound Saber Sect is a powerful peak sixth-layer Unity Realm cultivator and even he was refused by the Penglai Fairy. If Mount Shu\'s Sect Leader offends this person and unluckily encounters him at the upcoming Zhong Zhou Conference, he might not be lenient."
"As the saying goes, \'Beauty is a curse,\' and the ancients truly do not deceive me."
The other sect powerhouses were just watching the excitement.
In their view, Mount Shu\'s strength was inferior to the Profound Saber Sect, and if Mount Shu were to offend the Profound Saber Sect because of the Penglai Fairy, disaster might befall them.
"Hold on, look at the people from Xia State. The Pavilion Master of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion and the Temple Master of the Hidden Dragon Temple are both rare beauties, especially the Pavilion Master of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion!"
"Indeed, her beauty is no less than the Penglai Fairy\'s, perhaps even more ethereal."
People suddenly noticed Xia Ningxue among the group from Xia State.
Xia Ningxue was pure and jade-like, like a Guanghan fairy, her icy temperament keeping others at bay, yet so ethereal and moving that people longed to possess her.
"This fairy, I am the Valley Master of Raging Flame Valley. The Great Conference of Zhong Zhou is upon us. I wonder if you would do me the honor of discussing and exchanging our understanding of cultivation techniques with me in advance?"
A Unity Realm strong cultivator with a scar on his face stepped forward and struck up a conversation with Xia Ningxue.
He unabashedly emitted a powerful aura, also at the sixth layer of the Unity Realm!
The Valley Master of Raging Flame Valley had absolute confidence in his own talents and cultivation.
Having cultivated for only eight thousand years, he had reached the sixth layer of the Unity Realm and had the prospect of ascending to the Immortal Realm in the future!
In his opinion, no one from Xia State was his match, and surely his dominant aura and air of supremacy would attract her.
Like flowers blooming, butterflies come on their own.
Unexpectedly, Xia Ningxue coldly stated, "Not interested."
Although she was only at the fourth layer of the Unity Realm, she had comprehended the profound swordsmanship within the Qingxia Ancient Cave, which was out of the ordinary. With the Lingwa Holy Body, she could battle across realms, not intimidated by the strength of the Valley Master of Raging Flame Valley at the sixth layer of the Unity Realm.
Moreover, if she wanted to discuss cultivation, she might as well find Lu Changsheng; the two could practice the Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills and the Holy Spirit Sword Art together.
"Don\'t be like that. The Great Conference of Zhong Zhou is originally a platform for powerhouses from the major states and sects to compare their martial skills. Fairy, please reconsider? The Supreme Heaven Burning Truth of our Raging Flame Valley is a top-notch cultivation method in this realm. If we two can discuss and compete, perhaps it could help you improve your realm even further."
The Valley Master of Raging Flame Valley, having lived for eight thousand years, was not discouraged by Xia Ningxue\'s initial rejection and shamelessly persisted in striking up a conversation.
Xia Ningxue\'s brows furrowed slightly.
Seeing that the Valley Master of Raging Flame Valley wanted to reach out and pull Xia Ningxue away, Lu Changsheng clamped down on the Valley Master\'s wrist with one hand and simply barked a single word, "Scram."
"What are you?"
A blaze of nameless anger surged up in the Valley Master of Raging Flame Valley\'s heart.
Lu Changsheng, seemingly at most a cultivator at the fourth layer of the Unity Realm, dared to offend him, a powerful sixth-layer Unity Realm cultivator?
Mount Shu, although it had its heyday 500,000 years ago, has long since ceased to be the same Mount Shu after half a million years have passed, not even comparable to our Raging Flame Valley.
And yet the people of Mount Shu think they can stop him from hitting on the Pavilion Master of the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion?
The Valley Master of the Raging Flame Valley wanted to erupt in anger, but he suddenly realized his wrist was gripped by Lu Changsheng, making it difficult to break free.
Lu Changsheng had achieved Great Accomplishment in practicing the Nine Revolutions Divine Demon Body Refining Skills, cultivating the Nine Revolutions Divine Body, and practicing the Immortal Divine Art. His physique was tempered by various elixir pills and heavenly materials and earthly treasures, comparable to a superior-grade Immortal Artifact.
With his strength, not even the Valley Master of the Raging Flame Valley at the Unity Realm\'s sixth layer could struggle.
The Valley Master\'s face changed colors, "Are you a Martial Cultivator?"
The Valley Master of the Raging Flame Valley quickly circulated his True Qi, attempting to retract his wrist.
Suddenly, Lu Changsheng released his grip, and the Valley Master, caught off guard, stumbled backward, actually landing on the ground with his rear.
A crowd of onlooking cultivators fell silent.
The Valley Master of the Raging Flame Valley, at the sixth layer of the Unity Realm, had suffered a setback at the hands of the young Sect Leader of Mount Shu?!
"Damn it!"
The temperamental Valley Master of the Raging Flame Valley could not contain his fury after being humiliated in front of the watchful eyes of many Sect strongholds and the Elders of the Raging Flame Valley.
Adding fuel to his anger was the look Xia Ningxue cast at Lu Changsheng, one that held a hint of tenderness.
The Valley Master channeled his unique cultivation technique, the surrounding temperature rose rapidly, and heat waves swept in all directions.
"That\'s the Raging Flame Valley\'s mid-grade Immortal-level technique \'Supreme Heaven Burning Truth.\' It looks like the Valley Master is thoroughly provoked."
"With the Sect Leader of Mount Shu\'s cultivation level, angering the Valley Master of the Raging Flame Valley at the Unity Realm\'s sixth layer is not a wise move."
"The Sect Leader of Mount Shu is in for a tough time now."
Strong cultivators from other sects couldn\'t wait to see a good show and casually assess the strength of Mount Shu\'s Sect Leader.
"How audacious, daring to cause trouble on the territory of our Star Pavilion. Has the Raging Flame Valley grown tired of living?"
A woman dressed in green, her face veiled, carrying an Immortal Sword on her back, appeared. Although her cultivation was only at the Void Refinement Realm, she dared to scold the Valley Master of the Raging Flame Valley at the Unity Realm\'s sixth layer with a stern voice.
On the chest of her green dress was a pattern of the sun and moon shining together.
This was the symbol of the Star Pavilion, the number one great Sect in Zhong Zhou!
Seeing the Elder of Star Pavilion step forward, the Valley Master of Raging Flame Valley quickly dispersed his power and glared viciously at Lu Changsheng, "You brat, don\'t let me draw you as my opponent in the Zhong Zhou Grand Meet, otherwise, I will show no mercy."
The Valley Master returned to the lodgings the Raging Flame Valley had arranged.
The appearance of the woman in green directly turned back the Valley Master of the Raging Flame Valley, and the other observing strong cultivators from various sects didn\'t dare say much else.
After all, this was Star Pavilion\'s territory.
With an Elder of the Star Pavilion stepping in, no one dared to object.
Although the Raging Flame Valley was a powerful sect itself, if it were to offend Star Pavilion, the sect could be wiped from the map.
The two sects were not on the same level.
The woman in green turned around and looked at Lu Changsheng, her bright eyes flashing with surprise.
Lu Changsheng\'s aura had grown much stronger than it had been 145 years ago when she went to Mount Shu to deliver the invitations for the Zhong Zhou Grand Meet.
Even the unrivaled geniuses of the Star Pavilion couldn\'t hope to advance at such an astonishing pace.
The woman in green\'s intuition told her that this might not be Lu Changsheng\'s true level of cultivation.
"Sister, we meet again."
Shen Xiaoyao emerged from behind Lu Changsheng. If it weren\'t for the woman in green back in the Immortal Ruins of Huang State, he would have died at the hands of a Demon General.
"You? I hadn\'t imagined you\'d have reached the fifth layer of the Void Refinement Realm already."
The woman in green was surprised to discover that Shen Xiaoyao, who had been at the Nascent Soul Realm, was quickly catching up to her realm.
