Chapter 1 Rumors

"Have you heard? Lu Changsheng is at the Linglong Sacred Ground and has completely entered the Mahayana realm, his words becoming law, melting all methods!"

"What? He's already Mahayana? He's only been cultivating for three years."

"Words becoming law? Is that even real?"

"The Heavenly Pride Gathering is going to be interesting now."

"What what? Senior Brother Lu is comprehending the Yin-Yang Dual Cultivation Great Method? Dual cultivating with the Holy Maiden, entering the Mahayana realm?"

"Huh? Senior Brother Lu melted all methods, deduced all the laws of the world, and finally deduced a terrifyingly unparalleled Supreme Dual Cultivation Great Method, dual cultivating with the Linglong Holy Maiden and the Linglong Holy Master, ultimately evolving into Taiji and ascending in broad daylight!"

"Unbelievable, Lu Changsheng, Senior Brother Lu at the Linglong Sacred Ground, comprehended the Dual Cultivation Great Method, and fought fiercely with the three thousand disciples of the Linglong Sacred Ground for three days and three nights. In the end, the entire Linglong Sacred Ground ascended!"

One rumor after another flew out like snowflakes, spreading throughout the entire Zhongzhou.

Some people understood the truth but couldn't help but wonder what caused the rumors to fly.

Some people didn't understand the truth and believed it to be true, bursting into tears, crying out for their Holy Maiden.

Qingyun Daoren burst into tears even more after hearing this news.

"My disciple, three thousand female cultivators, how can you bear it? This master's heart aches! Linglong Holy Master, I didn't expect you to eat young grass! Even if you've been lonely for six thousand years, you can't harm my disciple! If there's anything, come at me!"

"Changsheng, this master is sorry! If I had known, this master would have accompanied you to roam the world."

Qingyun Daoren was extremely sad. He didn't understand the truth and mistakenly believed it to be true.

But undeniably, this incident caused widespread attention in Zhongzhou, even overshadowing the reputation of the Tianyuan Sacred Realm.

After all, Lu Changsheng, dual cultivation, Linglong Sacred Ground - these words made people have to let their imaginations run wild.

But soon, different voices arose.

"It's simply nonsense! I have had the honor of seeing the Linglong Holy Maiden once, she is completely untouched by worldly affairs, perfect to the extreme. This kind of woman can be called a fairy, how could she dual cultivate with a mortal like Lu Changsheng?"

The voice came from a young powerhouse in Dongtu. He was a friend of Wang Xuanji and also a heavenly pride.

"That's right, the Linglong Holy Maiden is a true fairy. What dual cultivation or not? To promote Lu Changsheng, is it necessary to demean the Linglong Holy Maiden?"

"Does Zhongzhou like to produce lies?"

Voices rang out, from Dongtu cultivators.

This was normal. Since ancient times, each region had its own sense of superiority, and would also slightly demean cultivators from other great domains.

Zhongzhou was a sacred place, a land of outstanding talents, while Dongtu was also a land rich in spiritual energy. The two great domains themselves looked at each other with displeasure, and fought openly and secretly countless times.

These days, the actions of Lu Changsheng were naturally known in Dongtu, but the reason for not mentioning them was also very simple.

They were not convinced, nor did they believe that Zhongzhou produced such a remarkable talent.

But soon, the cultivators of Zhongzhou were not to be trifled with.

"It's really laughable to the extreme. It's one thing to be ignorant, but to come out and embarrass yourself,"

Zhou Long of the Dazhou Dynasty spoke up at the first moment. He was the Second Prince of the Dazhou Dynasty, but he was very strong and a famous heavenly pride in Zhongzhou. He immediately spoke out to support Lu Changsheng.

"Dongtu cultivators are all frogs in a well, it's really laughable to the extreme. It seems that some arrogant cultivators have come to the Heavenly Pride Gathering again."

The Yin-Yang Holy Son also responded at the first moment.

"How can you people fathom the Changsheng Imperial Preceptor?"

Qian Yiyuan of the Daqian Dynasty also followed suit and counterattacked.

"I didn't expect that after so many years, Dongtu is still like this. Can you suppress my Senior Brother Changsheng's limelight with just your mouths?"

The Shumen Holy Son spoke, giving the most direct answer.

"Still a bunch of trash!"

The Ziqing Holy Son was even more direct and started cursing.

But soon, the Dongtu cultivators also gave a strong and powerful answer.

It could be said that before the Heavenly Pride Gathering even started, it was already full of gunpowder. The grievances between Dongtu and Zhongzhou were also exposed.

But soon, a voice rang out, attracting even stronger people.

"I heard about Lu Changsheng some time ago. What Daoist Sect Senior Brother, what wandering Zhongzhou, what teacher of the Buddha, are all just gimmicks."

This was the voice of Li Rulong.

He was the most representative heavenly pride of Dongtu, unruly and terrifyingly strong. His opening raised this war of words to a climax.

It could be said that the Heavenly Pride Gathering was popular before it was even broadcast.

The heroes of the world all turned their attention to the Heavenly Pride Gathering, not only because of the Tianyuan Sacred Realm, but mainly because this time, Dongtu had indeed produced several peerless heavenly prides. So did Nanling. Even the relatively harsh Arctic region had produced two young kings.

But Zhongzhou was quite mediocre, which seemed a little embarrassing for some reason.

After all, in every era, Zhongzhou was extremely extraordinary. But in this era, the Holy Sons of Zhongzhou, although strong, were a bit lacking compared to the other great domains.

Fortunately, Lu Changsheng appeared.

Naturally, the younger generation of cultivators in Zhongzhou vigorously praised Lu Changsheng. In addition, Lu Changsheng was indeed extraordinary.

Especially those who had been in contact with Lu Changsheng, who wouldn't be impressed by Lu Changsheng?

The five great sacred grounds were basically all loyal fans of Lu Changsheng. Even the other five great sacred grounds, even if they had not met Lu Changsheng, had heard of him, and naturally, they would also have blind worship and pursuit.

Now that Dongtu cultivators were humiliating Lu Changsheng so much, it naturally aroused public outrage.

That was why it caused such widespread discussion.

Soon, someone sent a message, informing everyone that Lu Changsheng was currently in the Linglong Sacred Ground, comprehending the supreme Daoist method, and would suppress all the heavenly prides on the day of the Heavenly Pride Gathering.

However, at this moment, in the Linglong Sacred Ground.

Lu Changsheng was indeed sitting on a mountain, thinking hard.

But he was not thinking about any Daoist methods.

Instead, he was thinking about what his Golden Core Realm talent was.

The Great Dao surrounded him, Daoist methods formed naturally, words became law.

Logically speaking, the stronger the realm, the stronger the talent should be.

The talent of the Golden Core Realm should theoretically be outrageously strong.

But it had not appeared for a long time, which made Lu Changsheng very distressed.

Just as Lu Changsheng was distressed.

Suddenly, the Xuanhuang Pagoda of Heaven and Earth sent out a burst of vibration.

In an instant, the pagoda shook violently, emitting a golden light.

"What's going on?"

Lu Changsheng frowned.

He used his divine sense to check the scene inside the Xuanhuang Pagoda.

Soon, Lu Changsheng was shocked.

The three-legged sand sculpture in the pagoda, oh no, the three-legged Golden Crow transformed into a ball of extremely fiery light, like a sun.

Then the light became blazing, gradually forming a.......Qilin (Chinese Unicorn).

At the same time.

Clusters of Xuanhuang auspicious clouds gathered above the Linglong Sacred Ground.
