“Wooden Dungeon!”
“`
Elder Ku Mu exerted all his might to activate the magical instrument, causing innumerable vines and trees to grow wildly, forming a wooden realm that trapped both himself and Luo Feng within it.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth within the forest surged crazily toward Elder Ku Mu.
Elder Ku Mu was a practitioner with a Wood Spirit Root, and had almost obtained the inheritance of the Divine Tree Immortal Emperor, his own cultivation was not weak.
Luo Feng indifferently allowed Elder Ku Mu’s wooden realm to block out the sky and trap him inside.
“Ku Mu, although your cultivation was higher than mine in the past, times have changed. I have been heavily relied upon by the master of the Reincarnation Hall, and my cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. Now, let me show you my power!”
Overwhelming qi of blood permeated the air, forming waves of blood, devouring the vines and trees in the wooden realm.
“How is this possible! Your cultivation level…”
Elder Ku Mu sensed that Luo Feng’s cultivation had reached the sixth level of the Dao Palace Realm, an inconceivable pace of cultivation.
“Die for me!”
Luo Feng summoned his Flying Sword, suffused with towering blood qi, and stabbed at Elder Ku Mu.
“Three Thousand Wooden Walls!”
Elder Ku Mu desperately operated his cultivation technique, and vines and trees formed row upon row of wooden barriers in front of him.
Yet, the Blood Sword pierced through the layers of wooden walls, impaling Elder Ku Mu’s body.
“You…”
The murky eyes of Elder Ku Mu gradually lost their luster, as the Blood Sword devoured his qi and blood.
“Your blood qi, too, shall become a part of my cultivation!”
Luo Feng ruthlessly devoured the qi and blood of Elder Ku Mu, who was at the fourth level of the Dao Palace Realm.
Corpses lay scattered all over, nothing but bleached bones remained.
“Lu Changsheng, wait for me. My talent, Luo Feng’s, is certainly not inferior to yours!”
Having slaughtered this Huang Tribe village, Luo Feng then hastened toward another Huang Tribe village.
At Qingyun Peak, Lu Changsheng was performing power-infusing initiation for his third disciple Mo Huazhi.
[Ding! You have transmitted 600 days of Heavenly Cultivation to your disciple “Mo Huazhi,” and Mo Huazhi actually received 99 days of cultivation. You have received a reward for teaching your disciple—a hundredfold return of 9999 days of cultivation.]
Lu Changsheng’s Qi Sea expanded, and his cultivation approached the second level of the Void Refinement Realm.
As Mo Huazhi reached the Dao Palace Realm, Lu Changsheng taught her the Heaven Rank superior cultivation technique, “Magnificent Righteous Qi Art.”
Mo Huazhi’s “Talent Cultivation Skills” and “Spring and Autumn Qi” had already reached Great Perfection, and the “Magnificent Righteous Qi Art” from the Hidden Dragon Temple was the sect-defending skill and well-suited for someone with a Body of the Literary Sage.
Lu Changsheng then took out an Earth Rank superior cultivation technique, “Advanced Talisman Refining Technique,” as well as literary treasures such as Heavenly Silkworm Cocoon Paper and Dragon Tail Inkstone.
[Ding! You have rewarded your disciple “Mo Huazhi” with a Heaven Rank superior cultivation technique, “Magnificent Righteous Qi Art,” and have received a teaching reward—a hundredfold return of an Immortal Rank inferior cultivation technique, “Saintly King Skills.”]
[Ding! You have rewarded your disciple “Mo Huazhi” with the special treasure “Heavenly Silkworm Cocoon Paper,” and have received a teaching reward—five hundred times return of the special treasure “Heavenly Timber Paper.”]
[Ding! You have rewarded your disciple “Mo Huazhi” with the special treasure “Dragon Tail Inkstone,” and have received a teaching reward—eight hundred times return of the special treasure “Cloud-Patterned Immortal Stone Inkstone.”]
Lu Changsheng still had the Mid-Tier Innate Magical Treasure “Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox Brush” and the High-Tier Innate Magical Treasure “Mysterious Lady Immortal Skirt” in his possession, but had not yet met the conditions for reward return. He would award them to Mo Huazhi one by one as her cultivation advanced further.
“If the Hidden Dragon Temple knew I had this Immortal Rank cultivation technique, ‘Saintly King Skills,’ they would be astonished.”
Lu Changsheng continued to teach his disciple the “Complete Tang Poems,” like Wang Changling’s “Song of a Soldier,” Li Bai’s “Chant Upon the River,”
Lu Changsheng also taught Wen Tianxiang’s “Song of Righteous Qi,” Liu Bang’s “Great Wind Song,” Xiang Yu’s “Song Beneath the Gai Pass,” Cao Zhi’s “On the Goddess of Luo River,” and more.
These ancient Chinese poems and essays, infused with the Magnificent Righteous Qi of the Body of the Literary Sage, can condense from their artistic conception into physical form.
Mo Huazhi listened intently, immersed in the literature of ancient China, which could one day evolve into combat techniques.
“Full of zest, my brush shakes the Five Sacred Mountains; with a poem completed, I laugh proudly above the azure seas.”
Mo Huazhi penned on Heavenly Timber Paper, and as Magnificent Righteous Qi was poured into it, it immediately resonated with nature, causing Qingyun Peak to quake and sway.
Fortunately, everyone was already accustomed to the frequent disturbances from Qingyun Peak.
“The mere entrance into Dao Palace Realm by the Body of the Literary Sage has caused such commotion; what would it be like if the Body of the Literary Sage achieved great accomplishment?”
Lu Changsheng focused on cultivating the Body of the Literary Sage, also hoping to witness one day the full prowess of its pinnacle state.
Lu Changsheng did not forget to teach Mo Huazhi the Technique of Ten Thousand Li Tracking.
Before the Demon Sects’ calamity arrived, Lu Changsheng’s three disciples entered Dao Palace Realm, and one disciple reached Nascent Soul Realm.
The Nascent Soul Realm’s Shen Xiaoyao, being the Son of Fortune, did not require Lu Changsheng to worry at all.
Lu Changsheng equipped each disciple with Shrinking Earth to Inches Talismans, Earth Escape Divine Talismans, and Earth Escape Talismans.
After entering Dao Palace Realm, Mo Huazhi became a Divine Talismancer capable of crafting talismans up to the sixth grade.
In other words, as long as Mo Huazhi was given enough materials, she could refine sixth-grade Earth Escape Divine Talismans.
Then, Lu Changsheng would reward the Earth Escape Divine Talismans crafted by Mo Huazhi to Lin Qingzhi, making possible the creation of eighth-grade Shrinking Earth to Inches Talismans and occasionally ninth-grade Within Reach, Ends of the Earth Talismans.
Lu Changsheng awarded third-grade “Top-grade Gathering Qi Pills,” fourth-grade Earth Spirit Pills, fifth-grade Heavenly Spirit Pills, and sixth-grade Dajuqi Pills, with a chance to recoup eighth-grade Red Emperor Dragon Strength Pills.
Even in the Void Refinement Realm, the Red Emperor Dragon Strength Pill could be used for a temporary boost in cultivation level.
With his first-layer Void Refinement Realm cultivation, after swallowing the Red Emperor Dragon Strength Pill, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation could temporarily reach the third layer of Void Refinement Realm.
Lu Changsheng estimated that someone with second-layer Void Refinement cultivation, after taking the Red Emperor Dragon Strength Pill, might not reach the fourth layer but could climb to the peak of the third layer.
The higher the cultivation, the weaker the effect of the Red Emperor Dragon Strength Pill, but it was still beneficial.
Even if he had no use for it later, he could still bestow it upon his disciples.
Additionally, Lu Changsheng distributed third-grade Scarlet Blood Pills and fifth-grade Scarlet Blood Consolidating Essence Pills, yielding a batch of seventh-grade Phoenix Blood Resurrection Pills.
Lu Changsheng had prepared a batch of elixirs for restoring Qi and blood.
Apart from life-saving measures, Lu Changsheng also hoarded a batch of seventh-grade Zhurong Divine Fire Talismans and eighth-grade Heavenly Thunder Exorcism Talismans for offensive use.
“There are still many cultivation techniques that have not reached Great Perfection; I must seize every minute and second to cultivate.”
Lu Changsheng began practicing the heavenly-ranked tracking technique, Soul Searching Skills.
In the ownerless lands outside Mount Shu, where Lu Changsheng had faced his tribulation, another Elder of Mount Shu ushered in his tribulation, and with his own strength, overcame the Threefold Heavenly Tribulation to enter the Void Refinement Realm.
Only the Heavenly Tribulation induced by Lu Changsheng’s Innate Taoist Body was so terrifying; the tribulations faced by ordinary cultivators on the ninth layer of Dao Palace Realm when breaking through to Void Refinement Realm were relatively easy to overcome.
The person emerging from the Heavenly Tribulation was none other than the chief disciple of Bimoon Peak, Murong Shi.
To prepare for the upcoming Demon Sects’ calamity, she chose to undertake the tribulation.
“My disciple, you are now one of the Supreme Elders of our Mount Shu. After this Demon Sects’ calamity has passed, you will succeed me as Bimoon Peak’s Peak Master,” her master said, eyeing her chief disciple who had entered Void Refinement Realm with satisfaction.
The talent of Murong Shi was only slightly less than that of Li Changye.
Upon hearing this, Murong Shi showed no joy.
This calamity was so severe that even her master, with his cultivation, had to make arrangements for the aftermath.
