Chapter 1 Aftermath

After everyone left.

The hall seemed extremely quiet.

After a long while.

Lu Changsheng looked towards Qingyun Daoist.

The latter was still earnestly pondering over other matters. Only after Lu Changsheng's gaze fell upon him did Qingyun Daoist regain his senses and look at Lu Changsheng.

"Disciple, your master knows that you are a low-key person, with a stable personality, never fighting or snatching. However, this matter is also a good thing for the Daoist sect. In addition, they are so enthusiastic that it is difficult to refuse, so this master has no choice but to trouble you to go down the mountain for a tour."

Qingyun Daoist said calmly.

"Master, it's fine if others don't know my cultivation level, but are you also joining in the fun?"

Lu Changsheng really wanted to cry but had no tears.

Going down the mountain wasn't impossible.

But Lu Changsheng's idea was to bide his time in the sect for a few hundred years. Anyway, any old Daoist priest in the cultivation world was thousands of years old. So, wouldn't it be great to go down the mountain for a tour (zhuang) li (bi) after his strength had increased?

Being suddenly asked to go down the mountain like this, Lu Changsheng couldn't handle it.

However, in Qingyun Daoist's eyes, Lu Changsheng's words were just an excuse.

"Changsheng, in this regard, your master has to criticize you a bit. Being cautious and prudent is a good thing, but one cannot be too cautious in everything, otherwise it will be difficult to establish confidence."

"Moreover, you are the Senior Brother of my Great Luo Holy Land, the current Literary Saint, and the teacher of the Buddha. Whether it's luck or strength, how many people in the world dare to cause you trouble?"

"Even if it is a peerless demon, wanting to move a hair on your body, they would have to weigh their strength. What are you worried about? What are you afraid of?"

Qingyun Daoist said like this.

"Master, I really don't want to go."

Lu Changsheng still didn't want to go. Although it sounded nice, who could guarantee that there would be no danger when going out?

What was said now sounded so good, as if no one dared to touch him.

But when he really encountered danger, Lu Changsheng was afraid that Qingyun Daoist would cry and say, "An old man sending off a young one."

"It's no longer possible not to go. The matter has already been agreed upon. If you don't go, wouldn't it be a laughing stock?"

Qingyun Daoist said with a firm face.

However, seeing that Lu Changsheng didn't speak, Qingyun Daoist immediately said, "But don't worry, your master will arrange for some elders to be by your side to protect your safety. What do you think?"

This could be considered a reasonable thing to say.

But Lu Changsheng was still unwilling to go.

But seeing the situation, it was impossible not to go. He could only bite the bullet and go down the mountain.

Sigh.

Life.

It's really fickle.

An hour later.

Lu Changsheng returned to the main peak.

His mood was very complicated, with a feeling like his family was preparing for a wedding.

Inside the hall, Lu Changsheng seriously pondered how to escape this disaster.

For example, on the day of departure, get diarrhea? Or pretend to have a cold.

But thinking about it, it was unlikely. After all, this was a land of immortals, and even terminal illnesses could be cured, let alone faking illness?

How about self-mutilation?

That was a bit cruel, so forget it.

Betray the sect?

No, he would probably be beaten to death if caught.

Switching the Crown Prince with a raccoon cat?

Also no, he would also be beaten to death if discovered.

How about a showdown? Stop pretending?

Lu Changsheng felt like he had found a solution.

But after thinking about it carefully, if he really revealed his true self, probably no one would believe him.

Ugh, why is it so annoying?

Lu Changsheng, why did you have to be so handsome?

Why?

Why?

Why is it that you are so handsome and your cultivation is so bad, while those people are so ugly but cultivate so well?

Lu Changsheng fell into deep remorse.

He hated.

He hated the people in this world, why they were so shallow.

Is being handsome really that important?

Is it right to be misunderstood just because you're handsome?

Who said that handsome guys can definitely cultivate well?

Pinching his temples.

Lu Changsheng sighed, he was tired of this superficial world.

He was very troubled and couldn't help but wonder.

Do all handsome people suffer?

And just then.

There was a knock on the door.

"Enter."

Soon, Liu Qingfeng poked his head in, looking somewhat sneaky.

"Senior Brother! Good news, good news!"

Liu Qingfeng came in excitedly, his face full of joy.

For some reason, he always felt that Liu Qingfeng was a troublemaker, it was just a kind of inexplicable intuition, but this guy looked harmless.

"What is it?"

Lu Changsheng asked calmly.

"I heard that you are about to be named the Senior Brother of the Daoist sects in the world?"

It had to be said that Liu Qingfeng obtained information very quickly. He already knew about something that had just happened.

"Yes."

Lu Changsheng showed a high and cold demeanor, but in reality, he was in a very bad mood.

"Senior Brother is mighty!"

Liu Qingfeng flattered him without hesitation.

"Get to the point."

Lu Changsheng was in no mood to talk about this matter.

But Liu Qingfeng was already familiar with Lu Changsheng's temperament, so he didn't have any emotions and still said with a smile, "Senior Brother, the Dali Wan (Strength Pill) you gave me some time ago is really effective."

Liu Qingfeng talked about the pill.

"It's the Vajra Lapis Lazuli Pill."

Lu Changsheng reminded him.

"Right, right, right, the Vajra Lapis Lazuli Pill. We all ate one and found that our strength had increased more than tenfold. The effect is so good. With this pill, we can definitely win the top spot in the upcoming Heavenly Grand Gathering."

Liu Qingfeng said like this.

"Are there any side effects?"

Talking about the pill, Lu Changsheng cheered up a little.

"Side effects? There really aren't any. If I had to say, it's just that our appetite has increased a lot."

Liu Qingfeng said seriously.

Increased appetite?

This was exactly what Li Chun said.

And being able to eat was a blessing, so it wasn't really a side effect.

Very good, very good!

"Then, at what realm will this pill be ineffective?"

Lu Changsheng continued to ask.

"It should be ineffective when one reaches the Nascent Soul realm. I found a few Senior Brothers in the Nascent Soul realm to eat it, and they didn't feel anything."

Liu Qingfeng replied.

"Nascent Soul realm?" Lu Changsheng said in his heart. Then, he couldn't help but ask, "Why would they eat the pill for no reason? Aren't they afraid?"

"No, I directly said that this was a pill you refined. As soon as they heard that, they scrambled to eat it, and they all said that this medicine was magical. One of them was even more exaggerated, saying that he broke through his realm a few days after eating the pill."

Liu Qingfeng said very directly.

"Broke through his realm? This is the Vajra Lapis Lazuli Pill, not a Realm-Breaking Pill, how could he break through his realm?"

Lu Changsheng was a little surprised.

"Yes, I also thought so, but they said that this pill was contaminated with a bit of your immortal Qi and had fragments of the Great Dao, they spoke vaguely."

Liu Qingfeng replied.

Uh...

Lu Changsheng didn't know what to say.

"Senior Brother, you don't know, our Main Peak..."

"What are so many people gathering for?"

"To absorb immortal Qi, they all want to break through their realm. Some ruthless Senior Brothers even abandoned their cave dwellings and stayed next to our main peak, meditating and cultivating every day. From time to time, someone would say that they had realized something and then broke through their realm."

Liu Qingfeng said like this.

"Do you believe it?"

Lu Changsheng didn't know what to say, so he could only ask this.

"Of course I don't believe it."

Liu Qingfeng's answer made Lu Changsheng feel a little relieved, at least there was still a normal person.

"Senior Brother, do you have any other instructions?"

After a while, Liu Qingfeng asked.

"Nothing." Lu Changsheng was tired, but soon, he said again, "I'm going to refine pills these days, you stay by my side and watch."

"Okay! This Junior Brother will not refuse."

Liu Qingfeng nodded.

Immediately, he took out a Qiankun (Cosmos) bag, and then pinched a magic formula. In an instant, all the surrounding air was sucked into the magic bag.

"What are you doing?"

Lu Changsheng was a little puzzled.

"Absorbing immortal Qi."

Liu Qingfeng said very seriously.

"Didn't you say you didn't believe it?"

"I don't believe it, but I won't take the Qi from the main peak out to sell, I'll take it home and use it myself, don't worry."

Liu Qingfeng said seriously.

"Get out!"

At this moment, Lu Changsheng couldn't bear it anymore.
