Black Night Filled the Sky
Chapter 382 Encountering the Boundless Daoist, True Dragon Rankings Number One! Lu Changsheng!
Lu Changsheng walked out of the coffin.
He was like a deity, his entire temperament undergoing another transformation.
It wasn't just because he had tempered his body three thousand times, but because Lu Changsheng had reached the Immortal Lord Realm.
With each realm he ascended, Lu Changsheng's biggest change was that he became even more handsome than before. If this continued, Lu Changsheng didn't know what he would do.
"Big brother, I feel like your current strength is about to surpass even my peak," Xuanwu said. Although he was only in the Human Immortal Realm, he had once been an Immortal King. He could clearly feel that Lu Changsheng's realm and strength had undergone tremendous changes.
Within his flesh, the sounds of dragons roaring, tigers howling, and thunder rumbling echoed. These sounds weren't something Lu Changsheng created himself, but a natural resonance that occurred when the flesh was powerful to its limit.
Moreover, Lu Changsheng's entire temperament had risen who knows how much compared to before.
But the only thing he knew for sure was that Lu Changsheng was definitely not an Immortal King. It wasn't because he could see through Lu Changsheng's realm, but an intuition, a strange intuition, coupled with the fact that he was perched on Lu Changsheng's shoulder, allowing him to sense certain things.
"Probably," Lu Changsheng nodded. His current strength was indeed very strong. It was just a pity that there wasn't an Immortal King for him to practice against. However, if there was an Immortal King in front of him, Lu Changsheng felt that he should still play it safe.
To be honest, the reason why he had unparalleled luck and abundant immortal opportunities throughout his eighty-two years of cultivation was because he was cautious enough. He didn't panic when things happened. Those people who got carried away the moment they had some strength all died, didn't they?
However, he was still grateful for the Heavenly Emperor Law for being able to cultivate the Demon Lord's Heavenly Dao Scripture to perfection.
If it weren't for the Heavenly Emperor Law, he wouldn't have been able to deduce the second half. After obtaining the Heavenly Emperor Law, Lu Changsheng forcibly deduced it, creating the second half out of thin air. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to temper his body three thousand times.
Now, all that was lacking was the fourth supreme scripture, the Buddha Scripture.
This was the supreme scripture of Buddhism, and it was a bit tricky. After all, if he cultivated this scripture, they might want him to convert to Buddhism, which would be awkward.
Thinking about it carefully, the Dao Repository Scripture was given by his master, Qingyun Daoist, the Demon Emperor Scripture was given by Qingfeng, and the Demon Lord Scripture was obtained because he was mistaken for the Demon Emperor. Then, if he wanted to obtain the Buddha Scripture, he would probably have to make a trip to the Buddhist Realm.
But soon, Lu Changsheng suddenly thought of someone.
"Xuanxin!"
That's right, it was Xuanxin.
The debate with Xuanxin in the Lower Realm was still vivid in his mind, as if it had happened yesterday.
Xuanxin was enlightened by him and became a Buddha's son. He might have obtained the Buddha Scripture. If he asked Xuanxin for it, wouldn't that be enough?
You have to say, that really might work.
The more Lu Changsheng thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.
But after a while, he looked at Xuanwu and said, "Eighth brother, let's go."
"Alright!"
Xuanwu didn't waste any words. He had been guarding this place for two years. Now that everything was resolved, he was naturally eager to leave.
"Big brother, do you want this coffin If not, I want it!" Xuanwu said, speaking his mind.
For the past two years, he had been extremely envious of this coffin. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. If Lu Changsheng didn't want it, he would definitely take it.
"You can have it."
Lu Changsheng shook his head. Although this red coffin was made of extremely good material and was engraved with 120,000 formations, it wasn't a complete magical treasure. It couldn't be considered an Emperor-level artifact, and its only function was to suppress enemies. It didn't have much help for himself.
When it came to suppression, relying on the Heaven and Earth Exquisite Xuanhuang Pagoda, he could still suppress enemies, and the effect wouldn't be weaker than this coffin.
So, he would just treat it as a gift and give it to Xuanwu.
"Thank you, big brother! Thank you, big brother!"
Xuanwu was overjoyed.
As expected, it was good to follow the right big brother. He even gave him something like this. He was truly a great man.
"Big brother, I'll control the formation and find the way out." Xuanwu said, and then put away the red coffin, wanting to set up a formation.
But Lu Changsheng shook his head and simply waved his hand. In an instant, a formation platform appeared in front of the one man and one turtle.
This method was extremely terrifying. Lu Changsheng's formation skills had also been greatly improved. The main reason was that he had mastered the Star Heavenly Dao, which could be used in many places and had miraculous effects when added to formations.
Just like that, Lu Changsheng took Xuanwu and left this place.
Southern Immortal Realm, Ancient King Domain.
With a series of spatial vibrations, a spatial gate appeared in a place of green hills and clear waters. Then, a man in white slowly walked out of it.
Landing on the ground, Lu Changsheng looked around.
Although he didn't know why, every time he used a formation to teleport, he would always appear in this kind of place with green hills and clear waters. But at least it was ten thousand times better than being teleported to a bitterly cold place.
"Big brother, there's someone over there."
At this moment, Xuanwu sent a divine sense transmission, reminding Lu Changsheng that there was someone not far away.
Immediately, Lu Changsheng looked over. In the southeast direction, there was a figure lying on the ground, looking very careful, and holding their breath and all immortal power, so it was difficult to find.
But Lu Changsheng and Xuanwu were not ordinary people. In an instant, they could find this figure.
"Should we go over and ask him where this is?" Xuanwu asked.
"Alright."
Lu Changsheng nodded.
Teleporting from the Immortal Emperor's tomb, he didn't know where he was. Seeing a living person, he naturally had to ask.
"But don't act rashly first. He seems to be ambushing something. Let's take a look first." Lu Changsheng sent a divine sense transmission, and then released his divine sense to see what this person was doing.
Soon, Lu Changsheng knew what the other party was doing.
Stealing eggs.
Yes, that's right, he was stealing eggs.
Because three thousand meters away, there was a bird's nest, the nest of a kind of immortal bird. A celestial bird with a light red body was incubating eggs.
But at this moment, it looked like it was about to leave to hunt, so this person was camping out to steal eggs, which was a bit strange.
"So, he wants to steal eggs. How unrefined."
Xuanwu also understood and thought it was a bit shameless.
However, Lu Changsheng shook his head.
"In the Immortal Realm, many cultivators are like this. There's nothing shameless or not. They're all just trying to survive."
Lu Changsheng didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, this was the Immortal Realm. Immortal beasts could hunt cultivators, and cultivators could also hunt immortal beasts. The law of the jungle was so cruel.
Of course, stealing eggs was still a bit wretched.
But since he knew the other party's plan, Lu Changsheng didn't plan to wait any longer.
"Fellow cultivator."
Lu Changsheng slowly spoke.
In an instant, the cultivator not far away tensed up and remained motionless.
"Fellow cultivator, I've already seen you. There's no need to hide. I have no hostility."
Lu Changsheng spoke, saying this in a gentle tone, because he really didn't have any hostility.
But as soon as he finished speaking, the latter didn't waste any words and directly turned into a golden light and disappeared, running extremely fast, not believing Lu Changsheng at all.
However, in an instant, Lu Changsheng directly raised his hand, trapped this person, and then directly appeared in front of this person, his expression full of helplessness.
"Fellow cultivator, don't panic. I really have no hostility. I just want to ask something."
Lu Changsheng was speechless. Was there a need to be so afraid?
And after being trapped, the latter's face became very ugly, but when he looked at Lu Changsheng, he was stunned.
He had never seen such a handsome man. The panic and fear in his heart instantly disappeared, and Lu Changsheng's voice seemed to have magic, making people feel calm.
After a full incense stick of time, this young cultivator finally came back to his senses, and then looked at Lu Changsheng, respectfully said, "Limitless Daoist, greetings, Your Excellency."
Limitless Daoist spoke, full of respect, but his eyes still showed some panic and fear.
The main reason was that Lu Changsheng's temperament was too extraordinary, and he was so handsome. Even the cultivators of the Celestial Race couldn't be so handsome! He subconsciously thought that Lu Changsheng was a cultivator of the God Race, how could he not be respectful?
"Limitless Daoist?"
Lu Changsheng frowned slightly. He seemed to have heard this name before, but he couldn't remember it. It felt familiar.
And Limitless Daoist nodded and said, "Yes, I am Limitless Daoist of the Little Luo Sect. May I know what business Your Excellency has?"
That's right, he was indeed Limitless Daoist.
Two years ago, he left the Little Luo Sect, wanting to find some opportunities for Qingyun Daoist, but unfortunately, after being out for two years, he didn't get any benefits. He finally discovered an immortal bird, planning to steal a few eggs to nourish Qingyun Daoist's body.
But he didn't expect to be discovered again, which was both embarrassing and ashamed, and a little apprehensive.
He was afraid that this immortal bird was related to Lu Changsheng. If that was the case, wouldn't he be finished?
And the reason why Lu Changsheng didn't know Limitless Daoist was also very simple, because from beginning to end, Qingyun Daoist had never mentioned Limitless Daoist, only calling him master. And in the Great Luo Holy Land, only the Holy Lords with great achievements would have statues left behind. The names of the remaining Holy Lords could only be recorded in the Great Luo classics.
Lu Changsheng had nothing better to do, so how could he possibly understand that stuff?
Who would have nothing to do and flip through the family tree?
So, the reason why Lu Changsheng felt a little familiar was because of an invisible karma, but Lu Changsheng didn't know it yet. The Limitless Daoist in front of him was his grandmaster.
"Limitless Daoist, I would like to ask, where is this place?"
Lu Changsheng's tone was gentle and he asked very politely.
"Ah, that's it?"
Limitless Daoist was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to ask him this question.
But he still answered truthfully, "This place is the Ancient King Domain," Limitless Daoist said.
"Ancient King Domain?" Lu Changsheng thought about it carefully. Well, he didn't know what place that was.
"Is there an ancient city nearby?"
Lu Changsheng continued to ask.
"Yes, 7.2 million li away, there is a Heavenly Star Ancient City, which is the main city of the Ancient King Domain. Is Your Excellency here to participate in the True Dragon Assembly?"
Limitless Daoist explained and asked at the same time, a little curious.
"True Dragon Assembly?" Lu Changsheng was a little surprised. He didn't have much of an impression of the True Dragon Assembly, only that Tai Shangxuanji had mentioned it in the restaurant two years ago.
It was an assembly that only True Dragon geniuses were qualified to participate in, but every session would attract countless geniuses and powerhouses to gather.
And judging from this, the True Dragon Assembly should have already started, right?
Thinking about it, Tai Shangxuanji and others should all come, right?
"I understand. Thank you for your guidance, Daoist friend. I will give this to you."
As Lu Changsheng spoke, he took out a long spear that shone with silver light. This was a top-grade Golden Immortal artifact, and it was also the last Golden Immortal artifact he had on hand.
"Hiss!"
Limitless Daoist was stunned. He didn't expect Lu Changsheng to be so generous, just casually giving away a top-grade Golden Immortal artifact?
This was really, inhumanely rich!
What was the concept of a top-grade Golden Immortal artifact?
His disciple, Qingyun Daoist, didn't know where he got three Golden Immortal artifacts, which attracted all kinds of trouble, and he had worked hard all his life, ascending for thousands of years, and only had one low-grade Heavenly Immortal artifact.
Lu Changsheng asked for directions and gave him a top-grade Golden Immortal artifact.
This pattern! This style! A god of wealth!
Limitless Daoist was stunned, standing there blankly, not knowing what to say.
"Limitless Daoist, do you not like it?"
Lu Changsheng spoke, saying this. Actually, he really didn't like this top-grade Golden Immortal artifact, but well, this was all he had at the moment, and the other party's realm was only in the Heavenly Immortal realm. A top-grade Golden Immortal artifact should be enough, right?
In an instant, Limitless Daoist came back to his senses, and then quickly said, "Your Excellency, you you you are really killing me! A top-grade Golden Immortal artifact, how could I not like it? Thank you, Your Excellency! Thank you, Your Excellency!"
How could Limitless Daoist not like a top-grade Golden Immortal artifact?
A top-grade Golden Immortal artifact! He might not be able to get one in his life. This was like a beggar who could only beg for dozens of copper coins a month, suddenly one day, walking on the road, meeting a rich man, who directly rewarded him with a ten thousand tael gold note and asked if it was enough?
Of course, it was enough! Enough for ten lifetimes!
Immediately, Limitless Daoist didn't waste any words and directly took the silver spear.
And Lu Changsheng was about to leave, but soon, Limitless Daoist quickly said, "Your Excellency, you might have been in seclusion before, right? You probably don't know a lot of things. Would you like me to take you to Heavenly Star Ancient City and tell you about some of the things that have happened recently?"
Limitless Daoist spoke like this.
After all, Lu Changsheng gave him a top-grade Golden Immortal artifact. To be honest, Limitless Daoist also knew a thing or two, knowing that he had given too much, so it was better to do more things, so that he wouldn't take other people's things for nothing.
Otherwise, getting a top-grade Golden Immortal artifact just for asking for directions, he himself would be a little embarrassed.
"Oh, since that's the case, then I'll have to trouble you, Limitless Daoist."
Lu Changsheng nodded. Having someone to lead the way and also tell him some things, that was indeed not bad.
"No trouble, no trouble. Your Excellency is too polite, Your Excellency is too polite!" Limitless Daoist repeatedly shook his head, and then led the way.
Soon, on the way, Limitless Daoist asked, "May I ask how many years Your Excellency has been in seclusion? And is Your Excellency from the God Race?"
"About two years, and I'm not from the God Race. There's no need to call me Your Excellency, Daoist friend. My surname is Lu, and my name is Muzhi." Lu Changsheng answered gently. He didn't know why, but he always felt that this Limitless Daoist seemed to have some connection with him, but it was difficult to deduce, so he would be polite first. What if he was an acquaintance?
"Since that's the case, then I'll boldly call you Daoist Lu." Limitless Daoist nodded, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief.
"What happened in the Southern Immortal Realm in the two years that I was in seclusion?"
Lu Changsheng was a little curious. Listening to Limitless Daoist's tone, it seemed like something had happened.
And the latter didn't think too much and directly said, "Daoist Lu, a lot of things have happened in these two years. Since an Immortal Emperor's tomb appeared in the Southern Immortal Realm two years ago, countless True Dragon geniuses almost died inside. Later, relying on the ten Immortal Kings, controlling ten Immortal Emperor artifacts, they forcibly opened a passage and rescued these geniuses. After that, the God Race was unsealed."
Limitless Daoist said this.
"The God Race was unsealed?"
Lu Changsheng was a little curious, not understanding what this meant.
"Yes, it's the God Race being unsealed. It can be said that this is the biggest thing that has happened in these two years."
"In the Immortal Realm, the God Race is high above. Normally, it's extremely difficult to see a God Race cultivator, so at the beginning, we all thought that the number of God Race cultivators was extremely small, so they didn't easily leave the Thirty-Third Heaven."
"But after the God Race cultivators were unsealed two years ago, we all knew that there were actually quite a few God Race cultivators. Of course, compared to the Human Race, it definitely couldn't compare. And since the God Race cultivators were unsealed, the entire Immortal Realm has been in chaos."
"These God Race geniuses are more arrogant and fierce than the other. The first thing they did when they came out was to challenge the various geniuses. Do you know the Star Son, Xu Qing of the Qingyun Holy Land, and Tai Shangxuanji?"
Limitless Daoist said so.
"I know." Lu Changsheng nodded. He knew, and he was quite familiar with them.
"The three of them have been removed from the list. Removed from the True Dragon Rankings."
Limitless Daoist said this.
In an instant, Lu Changsheng couldn't help but frown.
"Removed from the list? Are they dead?"
Lu Changsheng asked with a frown.
"No, it's definitely impossible for them to be dead. If they were dead, the Ten Great Holy Lands would definitely be in an uproar. But although they're not dead, being removed from the True Dragon Rankings is extremely embarrassing. For those people, it's not much better than death."
Limitless Daoist said so.
"Why were they removed from the list?"
Lu Changsheng asked calmly.
"Naturally, it was after being defeated by that group of God Race geniuses that they were removed from the list. Of the seventy-two on the True Dragon Rankings, fifty-two of our Human Race geniuses were removed from the list. Of the remaining twenty, besides some of those ranked at the top, and a few who haven't been found, most have been removed from the list."
"Oh, right, the ranking of the True Dragon Rankings has also increased to three hundred and sixty-five, and ninety percent are occupied by God Race geniuses. And of the remaining less than ten percent, there are quite a few cultivators from the Demon Race and other races. There are only a few Human Race cultivators."
"Alas, our Human Race now has no face in the Immortal Realm. I really don't know what to do."
Limitless Daoist sighed and explained in great detail at the same time.
However, Lu Changsheng was very calm. He had nothing to say. If you can't beat them, you can't beat them. There's nothing to explain.
It's all the God Race, there's nothing to say. It's not possible that the True Dragon Rankings don't allow the God Race to participate, right?
Since the True Dragon Rankings has increased to three hundred and sixty-five, and most of them are God Race geniuses, it proves that these God Race geniuses are indeed acting according to the rules. There's nothing to say.
It's just that the Human Race has lost face, but if you fall behind, you'll be beaten. It's not possible to only allow the Human Race to go up, and not allow the God Race to go up, right?
And it's a good thing that this kind of thing happened. At least it can encourage the Human Race geniuses to work hard and diligently, and strive to surpass the other party, creating healthy competition.
But Limitless Daoist continued to speak.
"Actually, it's nothing that this kind of thing happened. The main thing is that some of the God Race are too arrogant. In these two years, they've suppressed the Human Race geniuses so much that they can't hold their heads up, and they even claimed that the Human Race is not worthy to be included in the True Dragon Rankings."
Limitless Daoist sighed.
And Lu Changsheng thought about it, and couldn't help but say, "I heard that the first place on the True Dragon Rankings is a Human Race powerhouse. Theoretically, shouldn't he come out and suppress the arrogance of the God Race?"
Lu Changsheng asked casually.
"Oh, are you talking about Lu Changsheng?"
Limitless Daoist said.
In the next moment, Lu Changsheng was slightly stunned.
Huh?
