Chapter 1 Silence

Everyone fell into silence.

Because, upon careful consideration, what Tianjizi said was absolutely correct.

They truly did have opportunities, and quite a few at that. True Immortal artifacts! The three of them were only in the early stages of the Heavenly Immortal realm. All of their assets combined wouldn't be enough to buy even a single high-grade Heavenly Immortal artifact, let alone three True Immortal artifacts.

"Cough, this... this!"

"Thank you, Senior."

"Thank you, Senior, for calculating our opportunities."

The three of them thought about it. They hadn't initially wanted to say anything, but they had received benefits after all, and calling him Senior wouldn't hurt.

"So, I told you, when have I, Tianjizi, ever miscalculated? The immortal stones you gave were worth it, weren't they, young men? You must be patient and not make a fuss over every little thing. There's a saying that goes, it's not that retribution isn't coming, it's just that the time hasn't arrived. Do you understand now?"

Tianjizi said this, with a hint of smugness.

But the opportunities were undeniably there, so the three of them couldn't say anything and could only nod in agreement.

"Thank you, Senior, for bestowing treasures upon us. We three will certainly remember your kindness."

The three of them spoke.

"It's nothing." Lu Changsheng shook his head, then said, "Now that you've obtained your opportunities, go back and cultivate in peace."

He said this.

"Yes!" The three of them were also excited. Having obtained True Immortal artifacts, they were all thrilled and happy.

They couldn't wait to return and test the power of the treasures.

Soon, the three of them left. Only then did Tianjizi truly breathe a sigh of relief, but he quickly looked at Lu Changsheng and said.

"Changsheng, I told your master back then that you were definitely a qilin child. It's a pity that I misjudged you back then. I never expected you to be so extraordinary. If I had known, I, Tianjizi, would have risked my old life to take you as a disciple. Alas, alas."

"I, Tianjizi, have calculated countless times and have never been wrong, but I failed once with you."

Tianjizi sighed, his face full of regret.

"Senior Tianji, how did you calculate it back then?"

Lu Changsheng was a little curious.

"I just did a quick calculation. As soon as I calculated, I discovered that you had unparalleled luck. You were a dragon among men, a favored child of heaven, the number one genius in the history of the cultivation world, a peerless qilin child. I was right."

Tianjizi said seriously.

Lu Changsheng smiled wryly. Just then, he noticed that a spirit stone in his storage treasure had turned red.

This spirit stone was the one he had used to test whether Hongyun Taoist had been lying.

In an instant, Lu Changsheng was stunned.

"Senior Tianji... are you lying to me?"

Lu Changsheng slowly asked.

"I never lie. How could I possibly lie to you?"

Tianjizi was immediately stunned. When had he ever lied to anyone?

But Lu Changsheng took out the red spirit stone and said, "This is a lie detector. If you lie, it will turn red... this!"

Lu Changsheng said calmly.

But Tianjizi was silent for a moment, or rather, for a long time.

"Uh..."

Tianjizi didn't know what to say.

Lu Changsheng: "Senior Tianji, just say what you need to say. We've already ascended to the Immortal World anyway."

Lu Changsheng said. In fact, he was quite curious. He had never met Tianjizi before. To be honest, ordinary people shouldn't be able to calculate his fate.

But Tianjizi was able to calculate it, even without seeing him much. He couldn't help but be curious.

"Do you want to hear the truth?"

After a while, Tianjizi said.

"Please speak." Lu Changsheng said. He felt that there must be something strange about this.

"Actually, it's not a big deal. I didn't calculate your fate at first. It was your master who promised me all sorts of benefits and then asked me to promote you. It's not for those little benefits. It's purely because I have a good relationship with Qingyun Taoist."

"But the truth is, gold always shines. Changsheng, your achievements now are simply hundreds of streets ahead of us old guys. And I later calculated a hexagram for you. Although I couldn't calculate anything specific, I knew that your fate was extraordinary. You are definitely a person with great luck."

Tianjizi said seriously, his eyes firm.

Lu Changsheng: "..."

Sure enough, the mystery was solved. No wonder Tianjizi had only seen him a few times and was able to deduce so much. There was an internal deal.

His master had really paid a lot to promote him.

"By the way, Changsheng, how did you come here?"

Tianjizi asked curiously, also changing the subject.

"I'm going to Taiping Ancient City."

Lu Changsheng said.

"Taiping Ancient City? That's along the way! I'm going too! You wouldn't mind, would you?"

Tianjizi immediately said.

"Senior is joking." Lu Changsheng wouldn't dislike Tianjizi, but what was awkward was that the spirit stone in his hand turned red again.

"Hahahaha, just kidding with you. Although it's not along the way, I also want to take a walk and see Taiping Ancient City."

Tianjizi showed an awkward but polite smile.

Before Lu Changsheng could answer, the spirit stone turned red again.

Tianjizi: "..."

"Okay, I admit it. I'm not doing well in the Immortal World and want to follow you around to absorb some of your luck. Changsheng, don't despise me for being embarrassing. The main reason is that my Tianji Sect is just too unlucky. Because we help people calculate the future and deduce heavenly secrets, we've been condemned by the heavens."

"The Tianji Sect is long gone in the Immortal World. I'm just a lonely person now. I want to find my former friends, but I really can't find them. The Immortal World is so big. It's not easy to run into you. If you don't care about me, I'm really done for."

Tianjizi simply admitted it. He wasn't embarrassed. He told the truth and felt a sense of relief.

"Uh... Senior, don't worry. I'm here to find my master this time. If I find my master, I'll arrange for you to stay with my master."

Lu Changsheng could understand.

Just like the Purple Azure Holy Lord and the Shu Sect Holy Lord, these famous figures in the lower realm find it difficult to rise in the Immortal World after ascending, because the Immortal World also has native cultivators, the children born to immortals.

The population is already large, and there are clouds of strong people. It's difficult for cultivators who have ascended from the lower realm to rise without opportunities or qualifications.

And the most important thing is that Tianjizi doesn't know what went wrong. After ascending, his ability to calculate hexagrams became worse and worse. He himself doesn't know what the problem is. But after thinking about it carefully.

Tianjizi felt that the heavenly secrets in the Immortal World must be different from the heavenly secrets in the lower realm. In addition, he is only a Earth Immortal cultivator, so it's natural that he can't calculate anything.

"Senior Tianji, let's go now."

Lu Changsheng said. He didn't want to waste time.

"Okay, let's go!"

Tianjizi nodded. He didn't really want to freeload; he just wanted to find a place to settle down and cultivate in peace.

Just like that, Lu Changsheng took out a formation platform, and in an instant, Tianjizi and he disappeared from the spot.

Five days later.

Taiping Ancient City.

Lu Changsheng had searched Taiping Ancient City for five whole days, but he still couldn't find any trace of Xu Jian and Li Ran.

Although Taiping Ancient City was very large, Lu Changsheng had searched almost every inch of it, but he still couldn't find them, leaving Lu Changsheng and Tianjizi dumbfounded.

"Changsheng, why don't I calculate it?"

Tianjizi said. After searching for five days without finding them, he decided to calculate a hexagram.

"Okay, I'll trouble you, Senior Tianji."

Lu Changsheng nodded. In fact, he also knew how to deduce things, but he was afraid that if he did, he would trace back to the past and cause too much of a stir. After all, he was just looking for people, and there was no need to do it himself.

But there was no other way now, so he would let Tianjizi calculate it carefully.

Taking out a tortoise shell, Tianjizi threw a few copper coins into it, then threw it on the ground. Seven copper coins landed, and Tianjizi carefully examined them. After a long time, his expression became serious.

"What's wrong? Did they encounter any danger?"

Lu Changsheng was a little curious, seeing Tianjizi's expression become so serious.

"No!" Tianjizi slowly said, "I'm 70% sure that they're not in this ancient city."

Lu Changsheng: "..."

Damn it, why did you even bother saying that? I've already searched the entire place and haven't found them. I'm 80% sure myself.

Lu Changsheng finally understood why Tianjizi was always being chased. How could he have the nerve to call himself Tianjizi with that kind of divination technique?

"Why don't you divine where they are?"

Lu Changsheng tried to squeeze out a smile, but he couldn't.

But Tianjizi shook his head and said, "I don't know how to do that yet. My deduction method is simple and complex. I'm currently using the first method, putting the copper coins into the tortoise shell, a total of seven coins."

"Then, I ask a question in my mind: are they in this ancient city? If they are, it's heads; if they're not, it's tails. Changsheng, you see, five of the seven coins are tails, and two are heads, so I said I'm 70% sure that they're not in this ancient city."

Tianjizi said this, leaving Lu Changsheng not knowing what to say.

Was this Tianjizi the same as him, just someone with a big name but no real ability?

This?

You call that divination?

"I'll calculate another hexagram."

Tianjizi didn't notice Lu Changsheng's expression, but Lu Changsheng was wearing a mask after entering the city, so he couldn't see Lu Changsheng's expression clearly.

Then, Tianjizi put the copper coins into the tortoise shell again and threw it on the ground.

In an instant, seven copper coins, five heads, two tails.

Lu Changsheng glanced at Tianjizi, his eyes full of doubt.

Tianjizi wasn't embarrassed at all. Instead, he nodded and muttered to himself, "Sure enough, fate is infinite and constantly changing. The Great Dao, the Great Dao, this is the Great Dao."

Lu Changsheng: "..."

Well, this Tianjizi is completely unreliable.

Lu Changsheng sighed. He didn't want to directly deduce it, because that would have too much of an impact, just to find two people.

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng picked up a copper coin from the ground and threw it into the air, saying, "Give me a hint."

As soon as he finished speaking.

In an instant, several figures appeared in a hurry.

"I'm telling you a shocking secret. Outside our ancient city, there's a Taikoo Immortal Sect. Although it's in decline, this sect is rumored to have a peerless inheritance. Now, many geniuses and strong people are rushing to that sect. It's said that even the God Clan wants to get their hands on this inheritance."

"Really? Taikoo Immortal Sect? That name is so extraordinary."

"No, no, no, it's just that two geniuses fought a while ago and accidentally shattered a mountain peak of this sect. As a result, a bronze plaque appeared, with the words 'Taikoo Immortal Sect' written on it. It's said that this plaque is at least a hundred epochs old. Then, someone checked ancient books and learned that this Taikoo Immortal Sect was extremely glorious hundreds of epochs ago."

"It even produced three Immortal Kings in one go. Stop talking nonsense and hurry up! If we can comprehend the supreme inheritance, we can directly become the Celestial Race."

"Okay, okay, okay, let's go, let's go quickly."

"Wait for me, let's go together."

A group of people walked over and quickly disappeared from the spot.

"Changsheng! Do you think... could those two guys be..."

Tianjizi seemed to have realized something. He looked at Lu Changsheng and said.

Lu Changsheng subconsciously nodded.

Then Tianjizi slowly finished the second half of the sentence.

"Already dead?"

Lu Changsheng: "..."

Alright, Lu Changsheng ignored Tianjizi. He wouldn't even acknowledge him as a senior. His train of thought was just too much.

"Changsheng, where are you going?"

"Changsheng, I won't divine anymore, I won't divine anymore."

"Changsheng, wait for me, this old man."

Tianjizi hurriedly followed Lu Changsheng.

Two hours later.

Lu Changsheng had already found the so-called Taikoo Immortal Sect.

But rather than calling it Taikoo Immortal Sect, it was more like... a ditch in the mountains.

The area around the Immortal Sect was extremely desolate, with only a few lonely mountain peaks, and countless cultivators gathered, all seemingly there for the so-called peerless inheritance.

At the entrance of the Immortal Sect, an old man with a few disciples was charging fees.

That's right, they were charging fees.

Every cultivator who wanted to enter the sect had to pay a hundred low-grade immortal stones. Although it wasn't much, the number of people made up for it.

The five mountain peaks were now packed with people. Looking around, there were at least 500,000 cultivators comprehending the Dao.

Everyone sat cross-legged, their eyes closed, some pondering, some frowning, some lost in thought, and some still sound asleep.

And at this moment, Lu Changsheng finally found Xu Jian and Li Ran.

These two were not comprehending the Dao, but were standing behind the fee-collecting old man, collecting fees together.

And the smiles on their faces were extremely thick and could not be concealed at all.

"I say, is there really a peerless inheritance here? I've been comprehending it for a month, but I haven't comprehended anything. Are you guys conspiring to deceive us?"

At this moment, a voice rang out at the mountain gate.

Soon, Xu Jian's voice rang out.

"Fellow Daoist, you're wrong. I once met a great wise man who told me that the Dao is at your feet, and all things in the world can be comprehended. If you can comprehend it, it's fate. If you can't comprehend it, it's not fate. If anyone could comprehend the peerless inheritance, do you think a hundred immortal stones would be enough?"

Xu Jian's voice rang out. He said it with a serious and earnest expression.

The latter: "..."

"Alright, I'll teach you a trick. You need to calm down, calm down, and slowly you'll be able to comprehend it."

Xu Jian patted the other person's shoulder, then shouted loudly, "Peerless inheritance, a hundred low-grade spirit stones for seven days of comprehension. Don't miss this opportunity. If you learn it, you'll soar to the sky. If you don't learn it, you'll still have a variety of experiences. Don't miss it."

And at this very moment.

Suddenly.

A white figure slowly appeared in front of Xu Jian.

"Xu Jian, do you remember me?"

In an instant, upon hearing this voice, Xu Jian was stunned.

He looked at Lu Changsheng with a shocked expression, his eyes filled with horror.

Then, he swallowed his saliva and said again with a straight face.

"Acquaintances get a monthly package for three hundred!"

Lu Changsheng: "..."
