Black Night Filled the Sky
Chapter 159 Do You Want to Know What Kind of Good Fortune?
"Longevity!"
Inside the main hall, the Linglong Saintess sighed, looking at Lu Changsheng with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
"Generally speaking, cultivators your age are all thinking about how to become famous, how to shake the world, how to become influential figures. But from you, I see only forbearance, humility, and indifference."
"You seem to not care about anything in this world, just like your master said, you are young, but you have already seen through the mortal world and reached the state of Shang Shan Ruo Shui (supreme good is like water)."
"This is indeed extraordinary, and it's a good thing. But at the same time, it's also a bad thing. You lack the aggressiveness of young people, which is not good for your cultivation."
The Linglong Saintess earnestly taught Lu Changsheng.
And Lu Changsheng also accepted it 'humbly'.
In fact, if he really had the ability, Lu Changsheng would not be so low-key.
But the problem is, he is barely a Golden Core cultivator now.
He cultivated through hard work, so how could he pretend?
"Disciple understands."
Even so, Lu Changsheng nodded, pretending to accept the teachings.
"In short, you must face this Heavenly Pride Assembly in the best possible condition. The reputation of our Central Continent basically depends on you."
The Linglong Saintess said.
"Saintess, you are exaggerating. The Holy Sons of other Holy Lands are also very good."
Lu Changsheng said.
"Them?" The Linglong Saintess revealed a look of contempt in her eyes, and then slowly said, "Although those Holy Sons have good aptitudes, compared to you, they don't even count as green leaves. To put it bluntly, they might not even be able to beat Yun Rou. If they go, they will only bring shame to our Central Continent."
The Linglong Saintess said very seriously.
"Is our Central Continent really that bad?"
Lu Changsheng didn't expect that the dignified Holy Sons were like cabbages in the Linglong Saintess' mouth, worthless.
Oh no, cabbages are worth some money.
"It's not that Central Continent is bad, but the other great domains have indeed produced some remarkable geniuses, Changsheng, remember my words."
"It's like the imperial examination in the mortal world. Sometimes it's not about how good your writing is, but about how good the writing of others is."
"If they are weak, then you are strong. If they are strong, then you are weak. Central Continent has never been bad, but the problem is that the feng shui (fortune) changes. In recent years, the Eastern Lands have indeed produced many heavenly prides."
"Even the most unbearable Arctic has produced many geniuses, and there is also Xuan Xin from the Western Desert, who defeated the nine Holy Lands alone. If he hadn't fallen into your hands, I'm afraid there would have been a bloody storm between Daoism and Buddhism."
"There are many geniuses in Central Continent, but unfortunately, they were born at the wrong time, and they met them. But fortunately, our Central Continent has also produced a dragon, and that dragon is you, Lu Changsheng."
The Linglong Saintess said very seriously.
At their level, they basically have no desires or demands other than cultivation.
But they are not saints, and they have not cut off their seven emotions and six desires. The competition between the Holy Lands and the strong still exists, but it has only changed to another way.
At this age, they are no longer competing for who has the higher realm or who is stronger, but they are competing for disciples.
Whoever can cultivate an unparalleled disciple can win face.
Whether it is vanity or not is another matter, but at least it is a good thing. The stronger the disciples, the more stable the future foundation.
And if the disciples are worse, it means that the future foundation is more unstable.
Where are the immortal dynasties, and where are the indestructible Holy Lands?
Wealth does not pass three generations, and poverty does not pass three generations.
The world's fortune is changing. As time passes, there will always be strong and weak. The strong survive, and the weak are eliminated. This is the law of heaven and earth.
"Then who are the geniuses in other places?"
Lu Changsheng was a little curious. To be able to suppress most of the Holy Sons of the Ten Great Holy Lands, Lu Changsheng was really a little curious.
"The most representative heavenly prides of the Eastern Lands are Wang Xuanji, Li Rulong, and Zhang Yuansheng. These three have great backgrounds. They come from the Eternal Immortal Sect, the Heavenly Evolution Dynasty, and the Wuji Dao Sect respectively. And if nothing unexpected happens, there should also be some hidden world sect's heavenly prides appearing."
"As for the Southern Ridge, Gu Chiming, Zheng Ta'a, and Chen Jizi are basically the representative heavenly prides of the Southern Ridge. As for the Arctic, there is a pair of brothers who are very strong, known as the young kings of the Arctic, and they are also very extraordinary."
"However, I think the most terrifying is the Western Desert!"
The Linglong Saintess said.
"The Western Desert? Xuan Xin?"
Lu Changsheng was a little curious.
"No!" The Linglong Saintess shook her head.
"Then who is it?"
Since it wasn't Xuan Xin, Lu Changsheng was curious. Xuan Xin was a Buddha, yet he wasn't as strong as this person?
"His name is Xuan Hui, and he is Xuan Xin's junior brother. I heard that this child had already defeated Xuan Xin when Xuan Xin was traveling in Central Continent. It is rumored that if Xuan Xin is a Buddha, then this Xuan Hui is likely to be a reincarnation of an ancient Buddha, who can understand the mind, know the future, know the past, and has unparalleled Buddhism."
The Linglong Saintess took a sip of wine and said so.
"Xuan Xin lost to him?"
Lu Changsheng didn't expect Buddhism to be so secretive? They were hiding a trump card?
"Yes, he lost, but it's just a rumor. I don't know if it's true or not."
The Linglong Saintess said so.
But with her status, the information she obtained might be exaggerated, but it would definitely not be too outrageous.
This Xuan Hui seems to be something.
"Saintess, how does Lei Tingzi compare to them?"
Lu Changsheng couldn't help but ask.
Besides the Holy Sons, Lu Changsheng had some impression of this Lei Tingzi, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Lei Tingzi? I've heard of him. He can be considered a heavenly pride, but compared to them... he's just so-so."
The Linglong Saintess said casually.
Damn it!
So Lei Tingzi is just a treasure-giving monster?
He thought he was some famous existence.
He didn't expect him to be just a minor character.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng had a general understanding of the situation.
He rubbed his temples.
He couldn't help but sink into thought.
So many geniuses are gathering, wouldn't he be delivering food if he went?
And especially knowing that a character like Lei Tingzi is just a minor character.
This made Lu Changsheng really feel a little棘手(jí shǒu – thorny/troublesome).
He couldn't always rely on the phenomenon to suppress enemies, right?
And he was recognized by the Linglong Saintess as a true peerless heavenly pride.
Could he suppress them?
Ah, so annoying.
Couldn't they just let him quietly return to the sect?
Seeing Lu Changsheng frown slightly.
The Linglong Saintess sighed and said.
"Changsheng, stop pretending, it's time to show your true skills."
What?
Show true skills?
Right here?
Isn't it bad? The door isn't even closed.
Lu Changsheng woke up from his thoughts and subconsciously thought.
However, at this moment.
Hot air reappeared in his ear.
"By the way, Changsheng, this Saintess said before that if you can solve the Linglong Chess Game, I will give you a fortune. Do you want to know what kind of fortune it is?"
A voice sounded in his ear.
The scalding hot air surrounded his ears, making his whole body numb and itchy.
His mind was shaken.
