Chapter 1 Immortal World

Immortal World.

Southern Immortal World, the Ziyang Territory.

Compared to the Central Immortal World, the immortal qi in the Eastern and Southern Immortal Worlds is more abundant.

A place of verdant hills and clear waters.

A void rift appeared, and then a man slowly walked out of the rift.

The golden sun hung in the firmament, somewhat dazzling but very gentle, shining on his body with a warm feeling.

Lu Changsheng quietly looked around.

Green waters and verdant hills, a beautiful scene, not a desert, at least.

However, a question quickly appeared in Lu Changsheng's mind.

Where is this?

Lu Changsheng fell into deep thought, completely unaware of his location.

And he didn't have a map.

"Sigh, random descents are the most troublesome."

Shaking his head, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but sigh, but soon, he unfurled his divine sense.

Although he didn't know where he was, he would see if there was anyone around and ask.

With the unfolding of his divine sense, everything within a million li was in Lu Changsheng's mind.

Divine sense is related to realm and primordial spirit; the higher the realm, the stronger the primordial spirit, the wider the divine sense that can be unfurled.

Generally speaking, a divine sense of ten thousand li is considered very good for a Golden Immortal.

Covering a million li with his divine sense, Lu Changsheng was soon stunned.

Within a million li, there wasn't even a city!

That's right, not to mention a city, there wasn't even a living person.

Completely baffling Lu Changsheng.

In such a vast Immortal World, there wasn't a single living person within a million li?

What did this mean?

Lu Changsheng was silent, not knowing what to say, and could only sigh, walking forward.

But finally, Lu Changsheng discovered traces of humans.

A million li away, there was an ancient city, to the southwest.

Without saying more, he flew towards the southwest at full speed.

After an incense stick's worth of time.

Lu Changsheng arrived several hundred li outside the ancient city.

He carefully examined this ancient city.

【Da Li Ancient City】

Four large characters were engraved on the city wall, and these four characters were also carved with a sword, appearing extremely sharp, the calligraphy of an Immortal King.

Even after a long period of time, it still left immortal traces.

And the ancient cities of the Immortal World are indeed much more impressive than those in the lower realms; the ancient city is built with immortal stones, and the most terrifying thing is that there is a powerful momentum gathered within the ancient city, which outsiders cannot understand, but formation masters can.

The terror of this ancient city.

However, several hundred li outside the ancient city, Lu Changsheng looked at the ancient city and was surprised by the four passages within.

The leftmost passage was unused, resplendent, and built with jade.

The second passage on the left was also unused, appearing very deserted, but this second passage was built with immortal metal, a little lower grade than immortal jade.

The third passage was slightly lower, made of immortal silver, and people were gradually walking through this passage, not many, just a few scattered individuals.

The last passage had many cultivators, with a long line, and according to the normal review process, it would take at least three days to enter the ancient city.

A hundred li away.

Lu Changsheng was a little curious, not understanding the meaning of these four passages.

Just then, a very familiar voice sounded.

"Chang... Chang... Changsheng!"

The voice startled Lu Changsheng, who turned around to see a middle-aged man. He looked ordinary, carrying a bamboo basket and dressed very plainly, not even wearing immortal equipment. There was no familiarity in his eyebrows, and judging by his appearance, Lu Changsheng didn't recognize him at all.

"You are..."

Lu Changsheng was a little curious. He didn't expect that someone would recognize him.

"Is it really you, Changsheng, martial nephew?"

In an instant, the middle-aged man became excited, looking at Lu Changsheng with extremely shocked eyes, stuttering slightly.

"Uh..."

Lu Changsheng didn't know what to say, because he didn't seem to recognize this person.

"It's me, Elder Wang of the Violet Azure Sacred Ground, don't you remember me?"

The other party said, extremely excited.

Violet Azure Sacred Ground?

Elder Wang?

Lu Changsheng thought seriously, and soon an old man's face appeared in his mind.

"Elder Wang?"

Lu Changsheng was surprised. He didn't expect it to be him.

Although he wasn't very familiar with Elder Wang, he could be considered acquainted. Back in the Violet Azure Sacred Ground, Elder Wang was very polite, so he had a good impression.

"It's me, Changsheng, you recognize me?"

Elder Wang was so excited that he was almost crying.

"Elder Wang, why are you so down on your luck?"

Lu Changsheng remembered. As for Elder Wang suddenly becoming younger, it was probably due to the Dragon Transformation Pool. But what surprised Lu Changsheng the most was how Elder Wang had become so down on his luck.

In the lower realm, Elder Wang was a top figure, yet in the Immortal World, he had fallen so low?

Wasn't the Immortal World full of treasures? How could he not even get a decent immortal artifact?

This surprised Lu Changsheng even more.

Elder Wang: "There's no way, the Immortal World is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. How could those of us who have just ascended casually pick up treasures?"

Elder Wang sighed and said this.

"Really? I think it's pretty good. Look, I've only been in the Immortal World for a day, and I've already picked up quite a few treasures."

Lu Changsheng stretched out his hand, and more than a dozen Immortal Lord artifacts appeared, flashing immortal light, incomparably brilliant.

Elder Wang: "..."

For some reason, Elder Wang felt a pain in his heart.

He had been in the Immortal World for more than sixty years, and he hadn't even seen an Immortal Lord artifact, let alone a Heavenly Immortal artifact. Thirty years ago, he finally found a Earth Immortal artifact, but hundreds of immortals rushed out to snatch it.

He didn't even dare to think about that scene.

But what he didn't expect was that Lu Changsheng casually took out dozens of Immortal Lord artifacts.

Elder Wang cried. He knew that Lu Changsheng would be very strong after ascending to the Immortal World, but he didn't expect him to be so heaven-defying.

What kind of monster was this?

"Elder Wang, why don't you go and rely on your sect?" Lu Changsheng raised his hand, instantly gifting an Immortal Lord artifact to Elder Wang. To him, this was just a hundred years of hard cultivation.

But for Elder Wang, it might be helpful.

"No, no, no! Changsheng, I can't take this thing. First of all, this kind of thing will only bring me trouble. Besides, Changsheng, you definitely need to grease some palms in the Immortal World. I don't need it, I really don't need it."

Elder Wang said repeatedly.

What he said was also correct. He was just a Human Immortal at the peak, so what could he do with an Immortal Lord artifact? Not only would he not be able to use any of its functions, but he might also be targeted by others.

Although the Immortal World is controlled by various forces, and things like murder and robbery won't be blatant, it's definitely not absolutely safe.

After all, in a world where strength is respected, there are no rules.

"Elder Wang, don't be polite."

Lu Changsheng didn't care. Although Immortal Lord artifacts could help him save a hundred years of hard cultivation, giving one away wasn't too much, right? Besides, they were old friends from the lower realm. As the saying goes, rely on friends when you're away from home, and rely on your parents when you're at home.

You help me today, and I'll help you tomorrow. Old friends from the same hometown, meeting each other with tears in their eyes.

"Martial Nephew Changsheng, no, I should call you Lord Changsheng now. I really can't accept it, really! It's okay!"

Elder Wang didn't want it no matter what.

"Elder Wang, the word 'Lord' is a bit too much. Just continue to call me martial nephew. Don't be polite."

Lu Changsheng still had a very good impression of the people from the lower realm, especially some acquaintances. Although Elder Wang hadn't helped him much, he had taken special care of him in the Violet Azure Sacred Ground.

Naturally, Lu Changsheng would remember this kindness in his heart.

It's normal to be a little cold to unfamiliar people, but he wouldn't be so arrogant with familiar people.

"Changsheng, to be honest, I'm very touched. You ascended to the Immortal World and soared into the sky, not only did you not forget me, but you're also so polite. Really, I'm very touched."

To be honest, Elder Wang was touched, really touched. Lu Changsheng ascended to the Immortal World, and now he has soared into the sky, able to casually take out Immortal Lord artifacts. His strength is even more powerful. In theory, if he was even slightly conceited, he wouldn't bother with him.

But what he didn't expect was that Lu Changsheng not only bothered with him, but also directly gifted him an Immortal Lord artifact, and even let him call him Martial Nephew Changsheng.

Really, he almost cried.

"Elder Wang, it's nothing. I was still grateful for your kindness back then. But you should still keep this Immortal Lord artifact."

Lu Changsheng was determined to give Elder Wang an Immortal Lord artifact.

"Changsheng, I really don't need it. If you really want to give me something, just give me an Earth Immortal artifact, really! And theoretically, I should be giving you a magic weapon, not the other way around. I really can't accept it."

Elder Wang waved his hand. He couldn't accept it, and he refused to take it no matter what.

"Alright, I don't have an Earth Immortal artifact, but I have a Heavenly Immortal artifact. Elder Wang, you can't refuse anymore."

Lu Changsheng took out a Heavenly Immortal artifact, an immortal sword, and gave it to Elder Wang.

The latter couldn't help but wipe away a tear, put away the immortal sword, took a deep breath, and looked at Lu Changsheng, saying, "Changsheng, are you also going to participate in the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect's disciple recruitment ceremony?"

Elder Wang asked.

"Xuan Tian Immortal Sect?"

Lu Changsheng was a little surprised, not understanding what he meant.

"Yes, aren't you here to participate in the Xuan Tian Immortal Sect's disciple recruitment ceremony?"

Elder Wang was a little curious, unable to help but ask this.

"No." Lu Changsheng shook his head and said this.

Now Elder Wang couldn't help but be curious: "Then what are you doing here?"

"I'm here to find my master." Lu Changsheng answered very directly. The purpose of his coming to the Immortal World was to first find his master and see how he was doing recently.

"Your master? Your master shouldn't be here." Elder Wang frowned, and then said, "Although I don't know if the Great Luo Sacred Ground still has any inheritance in the Immortal World, the Violet Azure Sacred Ground used to belong to the Shu Sect Sacred Ground. And the Shu Sect Sacred Ground has also fallen to a third-rate sect in the Southern Immortal World. Your master might not be in the Southern Immortal World."

Elder Wang said this, also letting Lu Changsheng know that where he was now was the Southern Immortal World.

Lu Changsheng wasn't very familiar with the map of the Immortal World, but he knew some things about the five major Immortal Worlds: East, South, West, North, and Central.

He didn't know if the Great Luo Sacred Ground was in the Southern Immortal World, so he just planned to find an ancient city and then take things one step at a time.

"Is the Shu Sect Sacred Ground very bad in the Immortal World?"

Lu Changsheng frowned slightly, a little curious.

"Alas! It's a long story. The Shu Sect Sacred Ground was originally okay in the Immortal World, but it wasn't called the Shu Sect Sacred Son, just the Great Shu Sect. It could only be considered a second-rate immortal sect, but just ten years ago, the Sacred Lord, he..."

Speaking to this point, Elder Wang was silent.

"Elder Wang, why did you bring that lower realm habit here? Just say it! Don't say half and then not say it. It hasn't even reached the time to pause."

Lu Changsheng was dumbfounded. This bad habit of saying half a sentence really needs to be changed.

"No, Changsheng, it's okay for me to say it, but just listen to it, but don't think too much about it."

Elder Wang said, saying this.

"Elder Wang, just be straightforward. Don't drag out a sentence for half a day without making it clear. What kind of person am I, Lu Changsheng? Calling me tight-lipped is an understatement."

Lu Changsheng was indeed curious.

He definitely wouldn't be curious about other things, but he couldn't help but be curious about this kind of thing.

"It's like this, Changsheng, you should know that our Violet Azure lineage is separated from the Shu Sect lineage, right?"

Elder Wang said.

"Yes!" Lu Changsheng nodded. He knew this in the lower realm.

"And after separating from the Shu Sect, we ascended to the Immortal World together and came to the Southern Immortal World. The ascenders of the Shu Sect Sacred Ground had someone to receive them. After all, there were people in the Immortal World. Our Violet Azure lineage couldn't do it. But the Sacred Lord lowered his head for the sake of the big picture and returned to the Shu Sect Immortal Sect, which is the Great Shu Sect."

"After returning to the Great Shu Sect, the Sect Leader of the Great Shu Sect actually didn't care at all. They were all one family, living in harmony. They accepted the Shu Sect Sacred Lord and the Violet Azure Sacred Lord, and the two Sacred Lords were indeed extraordinary, their realms breaking through one after another."

"In less than fifty years, they had all reached the Heavenly Immortal Realm. In the Great Shu Sect, the Heavenly Immortal Realm was quite powerful. It just so happened that the Sect Leader of the Great Shu Sect also wanted to establish a new Sect Leader, so he let them fight. Whoever broke through to True Immortal first would become the Sect Leader."

"As a result, the Shu Sect Sacred Lord obtained a rare immortal medicine. In theory, he should have been sitting firmly in the Sect Leader's seat. But as a result, someone found out and ambushed the Shu Sect Sacred Lord, causing the Shu Sect Sacred Lord's cultivation to be crippled. As a result, the Violet Azure Sacred Lord was angry and severely injured the ambusher."

"But in the end, it brought a great disaster."

Elder Wang said seriously, sighing even more when he got to the end.

"What happened?"

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath. His expression had gradually become cold.

"The person that the Violet Azure Sacred Lord severely injured was the younger brother of a true disciple of the Heavenly Xuan Immortal Sect. So the Great Shu Sect was directly suppressed. The previous Sect Leader was even crippled and punished to do hard labor. The Violet Azure Sacred Lord was locked on Thunderclap Cliff, suffering the pain of being struck by lightning day and night."

"Alas!!!! This is really a sin!"

When Elder Wang said this, he couldn't help but clench his fists, but he was extremely helpless.

Just at this moment.

Lu Changsheng's gentle gaze completely cooled down.
