Chapter 372: Chapter 317: Slapping Protector Han's Face, 3000 Divine Demon Bodies! (4K)_2
The Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple recalled the records he had seen, while other Elders and Disciples of Jing Long Immortal Temple were still focused on the competition.
With the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda and the twelfth grade Nirvana Flames Red Lotus for protection, Lu Changsheng, holding the Absolute Immortal Sword, resembled a Sword Immortal and once again used "Rivers to the Sea."
"Law of Heaven and Earth!"
But this time, Lu Changsheng, using Great Divine Power, transformed into an enormous divine figure!
In Lu Changsheng's perspective, the people below swiftly became extremely tiny.
"The second layer of Law of Heaven and Earth?!"
Many Earth Immortals were shocked and discolored.
They had also cultivated the Divine Skill of Law of Heaven and Earth and knew how difficult it was to cultivate this Divine Skill to the second layer.
Lu Changsheng was treating this competition purely as an opportunity to test his Cultivation Technique.
"It's just Law of Heaven and Earth? What's so great about that."
Sun Peng, seeing the crowd's astonishment at the Cultivation Technique used by Lu Changsheng, also deployed the Divine Skill of Law of Heaven and Earth, transforming into a divine figure as tall as Lu Changsheng's.
"Three Thousand Demon Gods Body!"
Lu Changsheng's eyes flashed fiercely as he circulated the "Three Thousand Demon Gods Visualization."
This was a Sacred Tier top-grade Body Tempering technique!
After repeated tempering, Lu Changsheng's blood had turned into Three Thousand Demon Gods Blood, and his physique was incredibly strong.
"Law of Heaven and Earth" fused with the "Three Thousand Demon Gods Visualization," transforming the enormous divine figure into a titanic body of Three Thousand Demon Gods!
Lu Changsheng felt the Three Thousand Demon Gods Blood boiling within him, and even heavenly demonic phantasms appeared in the skies!
With the realm of an Earth Immortal, his combat strength was comparable to that of a Heavenly Immortal!
At this point, even the Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple stood up.
Her disciple's talent was simply astonishing; not only did he possess his own Cultivation Technique, but he also combined the two Sacred Tier Cultivation Techniques "Law of Heaven and Earth" and "Three Thousand Demon Gods Visualization"!
Practicing both martial and cultivation arts, his Divine Skill of Law of Heaven and Earth had become even more terrifying!
"Rivers to the Sea, an endless surge."
Lu Changsheng muttered the mnemonic verse, the Absolute Immortal Sword carrying a terrifying might capable of destroying heaven and earth, sweeping everything before it like a decayed withering force!
Sword Qi transformed into thousands of rivers, converging into a Sword Sea, obliterating the Sword Qi from the Fire Qilin Sword.
"No, no!"

Lacking an artifact of defense like the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, Sun Peng could only attempt to block the endless Sword Sea with his Fire Qilin Sword.
The Sword Sea was boundless and incessant, like countless turbulent streams, aiming to grind Sun Peng, who was in its midst, to shreds.
Under the relentless attack of infinite Sword Qi, Sun Peng's True Qi was rapidly draining, and he could not maintain the giant divine figure, being forced back by Lu Changsheng into his original form.
Boom!
Unable to withstand the onslaught of the Sword Sea, Sun Peng turned into a falling star, plunging into the earth, buried underground by Lu Changsheng's strike!
The Sword Sea had yet to dissipate, threatening to crush the boundless earth into a swamp!
"Young man, stop!"
Protector Han, fearing that his eldest disciple would be beaten to death by Lu Changsheng, hastily turned into a black shadow, positioning himself below the Qi Sea.
He extended his right hand, and a Formation Map artifact appeared in his palm.
The Formation Map artifact transformed into a huge Tai Chi Diagram, slowly rotating, swallowing the Sword Sea caused by the Absolute Immortal Sword, and even attempting to swallow the Absolute Immortal Sword itself.
"Retrieve."
Seeing Protector Han intervene, and knowing himself to be no match for him, Lu Changsheng withdrew the Absolute Immortal Sword, Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, Nirvana Flames Red Lotus, and other magical artifacts.
Lu Changsheng was also secretly alarmed in his heart.
Protector Han's Tai Chi Diagram had swallowed the Sword Sea, nearly taking the Absolute Immortal Sword itself; his artifact was indeed dreadful, and his Dao was terrifying.
One of the four protectors of Jing Long Immortal Temple, Protector Han had at least reached the pinnacle of the Heavenly Immortal realm.
Though there were several minor realms between the Earth Immortal Realm and Lu Changsheng, allowing him to fight across ranks, the gap between the Earth Immortal Realm and the Heavenly Immortal Realm was one major realm apart. Protector Han was a Great Accomplished Heavenly Immortal, with countless magical artifacts on hand, making it impossible for Lu Changsheng to confront him.
However, due to the face of the Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple, Protector Han dared not move against Lu Changsheng.
What the Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple feared was not Protector Han but the ancient Cultivator Clan behind him.
If Protector Han truly enraged her, as long as she made a move, Protector Han would undoubtedly die.
The gap between a Daluo Golden Immortal and Heavenly Immortal was greater than the gap between a Heavenly Immortal and an Earth Immortal.
Chu Bukuang, a confidant of the Temple Master's faction, was not polite to Protector Han, "Protector Han, by interfering in the competition, according to the rules, Sun Peng has lost, and Lu Changsheng advances."
Protector Han's face was as dark as a pig's liver as he retracted the Taiji Diagram, reached out to grab Sun Peng, who was seriously injured and unconscious, and brought him back, tossing him to the other disciples.
The Fire Qilin Sword, a mid-grade ultimate treasure, also returned to Protector Han's sword case.
"Kid, you wait for me," Protector Han transmitted a message to Lu Changsheng, a murderous intent in his tone.
His chief disciple, Sun Peng, was crushed by Lu Changsheng in full view of the public, leading to a complete loss of face for him as a mentor.
New grudges and old hatreds intensified Protector Han's desire to kill.
However, since Lu Changsheng had gained favor from both the Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple and Shangguan Zhao'er, it was not good for Protector Han to take action personally.
Lu Changsheng ignored Protector Han's threat.
Ever since the realm of Dao Palace, Lu Changsheng had escaped death many times and faced countless formidable enemies. Even being threatened by Protector Han didn't count for much.
"Han Jie, wasn't your chief disciple hailed as unbeatable in the Earth Immortal Realm? How did he lose to the Temple Master's junior disciple, who hasn't even reached the ninth level of the Earth Immortal Realm? Hehe, Han Jie, you were mocking me just moments ago; now you've been bitten back, haven't you?"
"This child, with the peak strength of the sixth layer of the Earth Immortal Realm, already possesses the combat strength of a great accomplishment Earth Immortal and is extraordinarily talented. He is very likely to become a Daluo Golden Immortal in the future. The Temple Master has indeed shown great discernment in accepting this disciple.
Once this child grows up, our Jing Long Immortal Temple will have one more Daluo Golden Immortal."
"It has been quite some time since I've seen such a demonic Earth Immortal."
The other three protectors whispered among themselves, not forgetting to mock Protector Han.
With their insight, they were all shocked by Lu Changsheng's astonishing talent.
To defeat a peak-level ninth layer Earth Immortal while only at the peak of the sixth layer — there was a whole three layers of difference!
Protector Han's complexion turned even uglier, and he couldn't refute the other protectors.
His chief disciple, whom he had painstakingly groomed for tens of thousands of years, was defeated by a junior disciple the Temple Master had only recruited in the last thousand years, leaving him without face.
Sun Peng didn't even make it into the top four of the Earth Immortal group, failing to obtain the thousand years of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi.
Now, Sun Peng would need even more time to break through to the Earth Immortal Realm.
The Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple, on the other hand, was overjoyed.
This new disciple had given her an unexpected surprise.
Lu Changsheng and Shangguan Zhao'er, from the same minor world, both had the potential to become Daluo Golden Immortals in the future.
Even a Daluo Golden Immortal might not be able to nurture a disciple who would also reach the realm of a Daluo Golden Immortal.
In the tens of thousands of years that the Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple had taken disciples, she had not managed to nurture even one Daluo Golden Immortal.
Even her previous direct disciples had limited talent and, facing their fate, were unable to make a breakthrough and have since fallen.
However, the talents of Lu Changsheng and Shangguan Zhao'er were higher than any of her previous disciples, and they had the hope of becoming Daluo Golden Immortals.
The eyes of the Temple Master of Jing Long Immortal Temple sparkled as she grew even more appreciative of these two disciples.
Though there were not many geniuses from the three thousand minor worlds, each genius who ascended to the Immortal Realm carried with them the Qi Destiny of their minor world.
"Junior brother, you had me worried for quite a while," said Shangguan Zhao'er with a mix of shock and joy in her voice, along with a hint of reproach and blame.
Lu Changsheng was deeply unassuming, and even she did not know the extent of his capabilities.
Lu Changsheng merely smiled. After his cultivation in Jinglong Mountain, he had never made a move and thus was unaware of the true strength of a great accomplishment Earth Immortal.
There were differences even among the great accomplishment Earth Immortals.
Sun Peng's talent was considered good among the Earth Immortals of Jing Long Immortal Temple, but it still paled in comparison to Lu Changsheng and some peerless geniuses from other super Immortal Sects.
The competition within the Earth Immortal group continued, and Lu Changsheng cut through his opponents one after another, snatching the first place in the Earth Immortal group.
"The four of you will receive a thousand years of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi," declared Chu Bukuang, announcing the final results of the Earth Immortal group competition.
The elders and disciples of the Jing Long Immortal Temple were all astonished.
Xiao Fan received three hundred years' worth of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi, while Lu Changsheng obtained a thousand years, bringing the total for the master and disciple to thirteen hundred years of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi!
With the aid of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi for cultivation, the effect would be doubled.
With Lu Changsheng and Xiao Fan already being so defiant of the heavens, how much more fearsome would they be a thousand years later after receiving the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi?
"After my junior brother utilizes a thousand years of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi, he is expected to step into the Heavenly Immortal Realm. It seems I also need to exert myself in the upcoming Heavenly Immortal group," said Shangguan Zhao'er with a serious gaze.
As a senior, if she were to be surpassed by a junior, she might even need Lu Changsheng's protection in the future.
How could she allow that to happen.
