Chapter 1 The Terrifying Divine Lightning

Terrifying divine lightning struck down, under the witness of countless cultivators, targeting Lu Changsheng.

This was divine lightning that even a Celestial Emperor could not withstand. If it truly struck down, Lu Changsheng would undoubtedly die.

However, as the divine lightning fell, like a heavenly blade directly cleaving down, it had no effect when it landed on Lu Changsheng's flesh.

The divine lightning plunged into Lu Changsheng's body, exploding within the Chaos Immortal Sea. Ten thousand zhang of sea waves surged, the Nine Cauldrons hummed, and the Chaos Divine Pearl also bloomed with unparalleled chaotic light.

At this moment, the divine lightning was directly refined by Lu Changsheng, providing him with a massive amount of immortal energy, no less than if a Celestial Emperor artifact had been refined by Lu Changsheng.

However, even so much immortal energy was not enough for Lu Changsheng to break through a single realm.

Above the firmament.

Lu Changsheng was lost in thought, not caring about the divine lightning at all.

In the near future, the myriad worlds supported by the Great Dao Azure Lotus were about to perish.

Why would they perish? What did the black Qi represent?

Was it related to the Divine Sea? What were the secrets of heaven and earth?

Lu Changsheng really couldn't understand. He couldn't comprehend it, because there wasn't a single clue for him to think about.

And seeing that scene from the past, who was that woman? Why were her eyes filled with love when she looked at him?

Was she related to him? Was she a relative? What was his true identity?

Lu Changsheng frowned slightly.

In fact, when he was in the lower realm, Lu Changsheng had also pondered this question.

Logically speaking, since he was so outstanding, his parents should be even more outstanding. Otherwise, how could they have given birth to him?

But where had his parents gone?

Looking back, ever since he embarked on the path of cultivation, he had been smooth sailing. His words were like law. No matter what problems he encountered, he could solve them easily. Lu Changsheng didn't know if it was due to his hard work, but it certainly wasn't because of his looks.

"In the Chaos Palace, even a lamp is a top-grade spiritual treasure. What kind of palace is this? And what kind of person can live there?"

Lu Changsheng wondered inwardly.

In the Six Realms, a single Celestial Emperor artifact could bring about bloody storms, a spiritual treasure could make the gods fight to the death, and a top-grade spiritual treasure could make the cultivators from the Divine Sea go crazy.

Yet, a top-grade spiritual treasure was just an ordinary lamp in that palace. How extravagant and luxurious was that?

To be honest, apart from the Chaos Divine Pearl, Lu Changsheng didn't have a single top-grade spiritual treasure.

Oh, there was also the Chaos Bell, but it was incomplete. It could still orbit the Chaos Divine Pearl. If it were complete, who knows what it would be like.

Sigh!

Lu Changsheng couldn't guess what would happen in the future, nor did he know the mystery of his origins. But the only thing he knew was that there was indeed a great calamity coming in the future, and it was very likely that this calamity was targeting him.

"The gods might know something."

Lu Changsheng thought to himself. Among the Six Realms, the most ancient was the gods. They must know some information that ordinary people couldn't know.

However, whether the gods were willing to tell him was another matter.

Forget it. If they were unwilling to tell him, then he could only convince them with virtue.

Lu Changsheng thought inwardly.

It was at this moment that Lu Changsheng woke up from his thoughts.

At the same time, he felt an endless amount of immortal energy within his body, no less than if he had swallowed a Yin-Yang Immortal Tree.

Moreover, the quality of this immortal energy was extremely high, even higher than Yin-Yang immortal energy.

"How can there be so much immortal energy?"

Lu Changsheng was a little surprised. How could he gain so much immortal energy just by pondering? If that was the case, he would just continue to ponder.

But soon, as a terrifying thunderclap sounded, a colored lightning dragon fell from the sky. This was the last lightning tribulation, directly striking Lu Changsheng's flesh.

The rolling immortal energy, like a vast ocean, directly caused Lu Changsheng's realm to break through.

Immortal King, second heaven!

Immortal King, third heaven!

In one breath, Lu Changsheng broke through to the Immortal King third heaven, equivalent to an unparalleled Immortal King. But Lu Changsheng's strength was not merely at the Immortal King third heaven.

His primordial spirit also broke through to the Immortal King third heaven in an instant, directly reaching the realm without needing any tempering.

The auspicious clouds and god-slaying thunder of heaven and earth had completely ended.

There were a total of nine lightning tribulations.

Hundreds of millions of cultivators were dumbfounded. Even Ji Wuxian, the Celestial Emperor, didn't know what to say.

He had thought that Lu Changsheng would surely die, but what he didn't expect was that the nine lightning tribulations had landed on Lu Changsheng without any reaction. Moreover, each lightning tribulation that landed on Lu Changsheng was like a clay ox entering the sea (disappearing without a trace).

Not only did it not bring any substantial harm to Lu Changsheng, but after Lu Changsheng finished transcending the tribulation, he had even broken through his realm.

Inexplicably, countless cultivators had the illusion that they could also transcend this kind of lightning tribulation.

Above the firmament.

After the lightning tribulation ended, hundreds of millions of divine lights exploded, surging like a vast ocean, pouring into Lu Changsheng's body.

It was well known that one could obtain benefits after transcending a tribulation.

But for some reason, many cultivators felt a bit sour.

When they transcended tribulations, they were struck to the point of near death. Lu Changsheng transcended tribulations without any pain or itching, and he could also receive the blessing of heaven and earth's fortune.

How could they not feel sour?

Terrifying divine light fell, pouring into Lu Changsheng's body.

The immortal energy obtained from transcending this kind of lightning tribulation was naturally different. This was nine heavens immortal energy, the highest quality immortal energy. Lu Changsheng devoured and refined it all, and his realm loosened once again.

Boom!

The aura of an Immortal King permeated the entire Western Immortal Realm as Lu Changsheng stepped into the Immortal King fourth heaven.

An hour later.

Boom!

Another loud sound as Lu Changsheng stepped into the Immortal King fifth heaven.

He broke through two realms in one breath again.

The Immortal King fifth heaven was almost equivalent to a half-step Celestial Emperor. However, Lu Changsheng was different. The cultivation method he practiced was the most perfect cultivation method.

Naturally, Lu Changsheng's realm could not be compared to ordinary cultivators.

At the Immortal King fifth heaven, Lu Changsheng didn't know how strong he was, but he could feel that all the Immortal Kings of Yin-Yang Immortal Mountain combined might not be able to withstand a single punch from him.

If he encountered that Yin-Yang person again, he was confident that he could kill him with a single finger.

But compared to the Celestial Emperor, Lu Changsheng wasn't sure if he was stronger or the Celestial Emperor was stronger.

Stepping into the Immortal King realm.

Lu Changsheng also had different feelings. Everything in the world was within his heart. The universe and the firmament no longer seemed so grand. His entire being had been greatly sublimated.

What was an Immortal King? Holding the sun and moon in his hands, plucking the stars, turning the sea into mulberry fields with a single thought. This was the power of an Immortal King, the most top-tier combat power in the Six Realms, second only to the Celestial Emperor.

Previously, Lu Changsheng, without the aid of any Celestial Emperor artifacts, could shatter the Ten Thousand Mountains with his own strength.

But now, Lu Changsheng, without the aid of any Celestial Emperor artifacts, could sink a large domain. This was the power of an Immortal King.

The difference between the two was hundreds of thousands or even millions of times.

Moreover, Lu Changsheng's immortal power was incomparably abundant. He was confident that he could completely revive and awaken a Celestial Emperor artifact. If a real fight broke out, even the Celestial Emperor would have to carefully consider it.

However, after reaching the Immortal King realm, there were still things to do.

Each major realm could awaken an unparalleled talent.

The Immortal Saint realm awakened the divine sense.

Now, having crossed two major realms, the Immortal Saint realm and the Immortal King realm could also awaken two major human treasures. Lu Changsheng needed to awaken them here and didn't want to waste any time.

He continued to comprehend the Dao.

The human treasure of the Immortal Saint realm was the physical immortal sea. That's right, it was the Chaos Immortal Sea. Ordinary cultivators called it the dantian, immortals called it the immortal sea, and Lu Changsheng's immortal sea was called the Chaos Immortal Sea because it was all chaos Qi.

The eighth human treasure was the Chaos Immortal Sea within the body.

A limited immortal sea meant limited immortal power.

Lu Changsheng's Chaos Immortal Sea was hundreds of times more abundant than other Immortal Kings' immortal seas. But whether it was a hundred times more abundant, a thousand times more abundant, or even ten thousand times more abundant, there would definitely be a limit.

Constantly releasing great divine powers would eventually exhaust it.

However, this time, the Chaos Immortal Sea was transforming into an endless immortal sea.

Boom boom boom!

Within the dantian, the Chaos Immortal Sea continued to expand, ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, a hundred thousand times, a million times.

In the end, the dantian no longer existed, because the dantian could not accommodate such terrifying immortal power.

Therefore, the Chaos Immortal Sea fused with the flesh, infinitely approaching infinity.

To truly achieve infinite immortal power, there was still some lacking. Perhaps he would have to break through to the Celestial Emperor realm to truly reach infinite immortal power.

After all, infinite immortal power was too terrifying. Even the Great Dao probably couldn't achieve this ability.

Everything in the world was limited. Infinity represented endlessness, and endlessness represented a kind of nothingness, just like time. Limited time could be defined as time.

If there was infinite time, then the definition of time would no longer exist.

But in any case, the Chaos Immortal Sea was infinitely close to infinity. If Lu Changsheng was willing, he could completely revive a few Celestial Emperor artifacts for fun, since his immortal power was close to infinite.

Of course, immortal power being close to infinite didn't mean he was invincible. The simplest immortal power enhancement couldn't be infinite. Reviving a Celestial Emperor artifact required terrifying immortal power and also required a certain amount of time.

The Immortal Saint talent was infinite immortal power.

Then, Lu Changsheng began to awaken the talent of the Immortal King realm.

Each major realm awakened a human treasure, and the further he went, the more terrifying it would be. The human treasure of the Immortal King realm must be very strong.

Lu Changsheng continued to comprehend the Dao.

Buzz buzz buzz buzz!

The human treasure of the Immortal King realm awakened, but it wasn't within the body, but rather luck.

That's right, it was luck.

Lu Changsheng quickly realized that the human treasure of the Immortal King realm was luck.

In the dark, Lu Changsheng felt that his luck had been strengthened once again. Although he didn't know why he said "once again," his luck had indeed received unparalleled enhancement.

Boom boom boom boom!

Among the Ten Thousand Immortal Mountains, the hundreds of immortal mountains that had been awakened before trembled.

In an instant, beams of light soared into the sky.

Each beam of light was a Celestial Emperor artifact.

A total of one hundred and eight Celestial Emperor artifacts simultaneously shot out hundreds of millions of immortal lights, and then gathered above Lu Changsheng's head.

"What's going on?"

"Why are so many Celestial Emperor artifacts all gathering above Lu Changsheng's head?"

"Is it really that exaggerated?"

"Damn it, I almost got it."

"Three months, three months. I worked so hard and was about to get this Celestial Emperor artifact, but Lu Changsheng took it away again?"

"What kind of luck is this?"

Among the Ten Thousand Immortal Mountains, countless cultivators were cursing.

They had worked so hard, thinking that Lu Changsheng had gone to Yin-Yang Immortal Mountain, so they could obtain the Celestial Emperor artifacts of these small immortal mountains.

But what they didn't expect was that at the critical moment, so many Celestial Emperor artifacts were all taken away by Lu Changsheng.

How could this not shock them?

How could this not make them feel uncomfortable?

But the most uncomfortable one was Bodhi Wisdom.

After searching Yin-Yang Immortal Mountain, he found no treasures. So he planned to try his luck at other immortal mountains. To be honest, without Lu Changsheng, he had indeed obtained two or three Celestial Emperor artifacts. Although the big treasures were gone, at least he had some small treasures, so it wasn't too much of a loss.

But with a sudden tremor, the Celestial Emperor artifacts in his storage space all rose into the air and eventually poured into Lu Changsheng's head.

One hundred and eight immortal mountains, one hundred and eight Celestial Emperor artifacts, were all taken away by Lu Changsheng.

Was he even going to let people live?

In fact, Lu Changsheng himself was also a little dazed.

He didn't expect that the human treasure of the Immortal King realm would actually be luck.

His luck was already so strong, and now it was enhanced again. Lu Changsheng himself felt a little embarrassed.

And the benefits of luck enhancement were immediately reflected.

Previously, with Lu Changsheng's luck, only when he saw a Celestial Emperor artifact would the Celestial Emperor artifact actively recognize him as its master. Unless Lu Changsheng took the initiative to ask for it, he still had to come into contact with the Celestial Emperor artifact to obtain it.

But now, Lu Changsheng's luck had already influenced the Celestial Emperor artifacts to actively recognize him as their master. Even if Lu Changsheng didn't see them, these Celestial Emperor artifacts would actively come to recognize him as their master.

One hundred and eight Celestial Emperor artifacts were suspended above his head.

Since they were here, he might as well accept them.

As the ancients said, why refuse something given for free?

Therefore, Lu Changsheng directly took all one hundred and eight Celestial Emperor artifacts into his possession, and then took out nineteen Celestial Emperor artifacts to offer sacrifices to the heavens and pray for blessings again, as a way to offset the karma of the Nine Cauldrons.

Nineteen Celestial Emperor artifacts were directly sacrificed to heaven and earth. Auspicious clouds appeared one after another, continuing to feed back luck to Lu Changsheng.

A full three days and three nights later.

Finally, all the phenomena disappeared, and all the light was restrained.

In Yin-Yang Immortal Mountain, Lu Changsheng had completely settled everything.

But it was at this moment that the voice of Ji Wuxian, the Celestial Emperor, finally sounded outside the Ten Thousand Immortal Mountains.

He could no longer hold back.

In his eyes, Lu Changsheng was simply a favored child of heaven, even more potential than the so-called Di Tian. Therefore, Ji Wuxian thought of something.

"Lu Changsheng!"

Ji Wuxian's voice resounded. He had learned Lu Changsheng's name from the gods. At this moment, he spoke out, attracting attention from all sides.

In Yin-Yang Immortal Mountain, Lu Changsheng looked towards Ji Wuxian, his eyes filled with curiosity, because this was a Celestial Emperor powerhouse, who looked unfathomable. But he didn't know why the other party was calling him.

"Lu Changsheng, are you willing to follow my master?"

Ji Wuxian's voice resounded, his tone filled with pride.

And as soon as these words were spoken, countless gazes couldn't help but look towards Ji Wuxian.

People were shocked, unable to believe that Ji Wuxian would actually say such a thing.

Shouldn't a Celestial Emperor be an invincible existence?

And he even had a master?

And what was even more shocking was that Ji Wuxian actually asked Lu Changsheng if he was willing to follow his master.

Lu Changsheng was an unparalleled prodigy, the favored child of heaven in the Six Realms, which was no exaggeration. This kind of existence was actually being asked to "follow" rather than "join"?

It was shocking.
