Chapter 374: Chapter 318: Both Ascend, Disciples' Growth! (4K)_2
A hearty laugh rang out as a couple descended, a poised man and a beautiful woman.
Shen Xiaoyao and Tang Ling'er had returned from the Star Pavilion.
After Pavilion Master Tang Wansan ascended to the Immortal Realm, Tang Ling'er inherited the position of Pavilion Master of the Star Pavilion.
With the cultivation resources provided by the Star Pavilion, both Shen Xiaoyao and Tang Ling'er are now Unity Realm powerhouses.
"Junior brother, it has been a long time."
Lin Qingzhi had not seen Shen Xiaoyao for several hundred years.
"If our senior brother reaches the Immortal Realm and sees our master, please give him our regards. We might still need some time before we can undergo tribulation and ascend."
Shen Xiaoyao did not realize the vast expanse of the Immortal Realm and thought Lin Qingzhi could easily meet Lu Changsheng upon arrival.
"Of course."
"Strange, where is the second senior sister?"
"She went to the Endless Sea in the east, claiming she wanted to slay a dragon."
Lin Qingzhi was also frustrated.
Among all his junior brothers and sisters, he was the only one who couldn't manage his second junior sister, Lu Qinglian.
Before Lu Changsheng ascended, Lu Qinglian was his favorite disciple, nearly raised like a daughter.
Lu Qinglian was born with the Martial King Divine Physique and had cultivated the Fire Lotus True Qi. In terms of combat power, even Lin Qingzhi, who cultivated the Taiqing Wuji Technique, might not be her match.
After Lu Changsheng ascended, Lu Qinglian couldn't stay idle at Mount Shu and wandered around this little world, exploring various forbidden lands and Immortal Ruins.
"I'm back! Hahahaha!"
The voice of Lu Qinglian could be heard, and many faces of the Mount Shu elders changed dramatically.
Even Taiyuan and Situ Kong, the two prestigious predecessors of Mount Shu, couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Ever since Lu Qinglian entered the Unity Realm, she had challenged Taiyuan and Situ Kong multiple times, showing no sense of respecting the elderly, and later she even defeated the two, leaving them lying on the ground.
If it had been the worldly-wise Lu Changsheng, he would have given face to the two predecessors and never sparred with them, but Lu Qinglian cared not for such formality.
After defeating many Supreme Elders of Mount Shu and challenging Sect Leaders of various sects, causing chaos and panic, she became a feared figure among the major sects.
A woman clad in a top-grade Immortal Artifact, the Nine Heavens Divine Flame Skirt, appeared. Her black hair flowed down to her waist, with faint flames flickering through it.
She was also shouldering a Flood Dragon's horn as large as a house.
"I killed a Unity Realm Flood Dragon in the East Sea, then I broke off its horn, which I heard is good for artifact refinement. I don't know how to refine artifacts, so consider it a gift for the sect."
Upon her return, Lu Qinglian casually tossed the Dragon Horn to an elder of the Refinement Pavilion.
All the Mount Shu elders and disciples were in a stupor.
The horn of a Unity Realm, Great Accomplishment stage Flood Dragon, with scales as tough as steel, and the Dragon Horn itself was even harder than refined steel, and yet it was broken by Lu Qinglian?
Lu Qinglian muttered, "Flood Dragon meat when roasted is quite tasty. Its Golden Core is even more delicious."
The old Flood Dragon servant beside Ji Xuan broke out in cold sweat.
This formidable figure did not even spare Flood Dragons. It was fortunate that it was the servant of the Demon Lord and had the Demon Lord's protection; otherwise, it might have been eaten by Lu Qinglian.
"Senior brother, when you reach the Immortal Realm and see our master, please tell him that Lian misses him very much."
Lu Qinglian spoke earnestly to Lin Qingzhi.
Ever since their master ascended, Lu Qinglian often missed him.
"Mm, I definitely will."
Lin Qingzhi knew how dependent Lu Qinglian was on their master.
All the elders and disciples of the first and second generations of Qingyun Peak, and other members of Mount Shu, assembled.
Lin Qingzhi decided on the next candidate for Sect Leader of Mount Shu: "According to our Mount Shu's tradition, the position of Sect Leader can be passed to a peer or a junior with the highest aptitude and virtue."
Lin Qingzhi ruled out Situ Kong, Li Changye, Murong Shi, and other seniors. Mount Shu's tradition favored the succession of the Sect Leader position by the young generation of exceptional talents, while the senior powerhouses would assume the position of Supreme Elders.
"I have decided that our junior sister, Lu Qinglian, will be the thirtieth Sect Leader of Mount Shu."
"What?!"
All the Mount Shu elders and disciples were shocked.

The worst scenario had happened!
Lu Qinglian, the one from Mount Shu who loved causing trouble the most, has now become the Sect Leader of Mount Shu!
Who would have thought that over a thousand years ago, the little girl that Lu Changsheng brought back from Huang State, who turned Mount Shu upside down, would become the Sect Leader of Mount Shu?
"Since this is the Sect Leader's decision, we must all follow it,"
Supreme Elder Taiyuan, the twenty-seventh Sect Leader, spoke and the crowd dared not raise any objections.
The Supreme Elder Taiyuan, being the master of the twenty-eighth Sect Leader Lu Changsheng and the grand master of the twenty-ninth Sect Leader Lin Qingzhi and the thirtieth Sect Leader Lu Qinglian, held a prestigious status with authoritative words.
Lu Qinglian couldn't wait to try: "I will strengthen our Mount Shu sect and make us the number one sect in the world!"
Shen Xiaoyao and Tang Ling'er shared a smile, feeling relieved that Star Pavilion had a good relationship with Mount Shu, otherwise Lu Qinglian might have challenged the experts of Star Pavilion.
Neither Shen Xiaoyao nor Tang Ling'er could match Lu Qinglian on their own, but joined together, the Pure Yang Body and the Pure Yin Body were the strongest in the world.
After determining the next Sect Leader of Mount Shu, Lin Qingzhi began to prepare for his tribulation.
Although Lin Qingzhi's Everlasting Verdant Body was a superior special physique, it wasn't as powerful as the Innate Taoist Body. Therefore, the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation he faced wasn't as terrifying as the one Lu Changsheng faced, giving Lin Qingzhi complete confidence in overcoming the Heavenly Tribulation.
"Yao'er, we'll meet again in the Immortal Realm."
Before he left, Lin Qingzhi did not forget to embrace Chen Yao.
"We will definitely meet again,"
Chen Yao, with pear blossoms and tears, wiped away the sparkling tears from the corner of her eyes.
Unless one reached the Immortal Realm, no one knew what it was like.
Lin Qingzhi took out the high-grade Immortal Artifact "Qing Emperor's Divine Radiance Sword" awarded by his master and flew away on his sword to an uninhabited land to undergo his tribulation alone.
"Lu's disciples are about to ascend to immortality, and here I am, Zhao Wuyan, still in the Void Refinement Realm, truly ashamed. The gap between people is even larger than the gap between people and dogs, isn't it? No, I might not even be a match for the big yellow dog on Qingyun Peak..."
Zhao Wuyan was utterly depressed.
He had watched with his own eyes as Lu Changsheng grew from the Nascent Soul Realm to the Earth Immortal Realm, but after so many years, Zhao Wuyan was still just at Great Accomplishment in the Void Refinement Realm, with the prospect of transcendence and ascension far in the distance.
However, after Lu Changsheng's ascension, Zhao Wuyan married Fairy Chunhua from Hidden Dragon Temple, and his days were rather comfortable.
...
In the Immortal Realm, within Cangyu, in the Jinglong Mountain Range, the floating Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi flowed like a waterfall into the Daoist Temple where Lu Changsheng resided.
During the internal competition of Jing Long Immortal Temple, master and disciple Lu Changsheng and Xiao Fan respectively won first place in the Earth Immortal group and the Unity Realm group, earning a portion of the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi.
Under normal circumstances, this portion of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi could suffice for one Earth Immortal Realm cultivator to cultivate for a thousand years and one Unity Realm cultivator for three hundred years.
Shangguan Zhao'er won three thousand years' worth of Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi in the competition.
Since the four protectors did not partake in the contest, Shangguan Zhao'er entered the top four of the Heavenly Immortal group.
With the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator, the boost to Lu Changsheng from the Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi was somewhat disappointing, but he was not stingy. He shared the Qi with his two disciples.
As the disciples' realms improved, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator returned even more Spiritual Energy.
With Lu Changsheng's power-infusing initiation and the constant nourishment from Jade Dragon Spiritual Qi, Xiao Fan quickly broke through the constraints of the Unity Realm, preparing for his tribulation and ascension.
"I am finally entering the Earth Immortal Realm. I never thought our Xiao Family, after declining for eons, would produce a Loose Immortal. All of this is thanks to Master,"
Xiao Fan clenched his fists; his bloodline awakened, and the War Heaven Tyrant Body was filled with immense power.
With just a thought, he could bring forth the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation, and by using it to temper his body, the War Heaven Tyrant Body would become even stronger.
If not for his master, Lu Changsheng, he would still be nothing but trash of the Xiao Family in Chongwu City.
Xiao Fan felt he was like protagonists from novels who received help from an old man!
He was indeed very lucky!
"This is the Ascension Pill. Prepare for your tribulation,"
Lu Changsheng flicked his finger and a rank eleven Elixir Pill, the "Ascension Pill," fell into Xiao Fan's hands.
When a disciple breaks through from the Unity Realm to the Earth Immortal Realm, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator would return valuable treasures, and Lu Changsheng could hardly wait.
Xiao Fan consumed the Ascension Pill and began his tribulation.
With his junior Sister Ning Qianqian having ascended before him, Xiao Fan took the process in stride.
The Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation descended.
"Another Earth Immortal disciple is about to be cultivated. In the future, these disciples might become Daluo Golden Immortals, and I would be the master of these Daluo Golden Immortals... Wait, Lin Qingzhi has ascended!"
