"Master, is this what you want?" Two pairs of horns grew out of Lu Sheng's forehead, and his muscles continued to expand. Black smoke poured out of his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, as if his entire body was on fire.
"What I want?" Qian Du put away her halberd, her eyes filled with confusion and distortion. "You think you've hidden it well? Idiot!! "
In an instant, the ten-meter-long black halberd turned into a sky full of black shadows, as if it had split into dozens of giant halberds, and slashed at Lu Sheng.
All the trees within a few hundred meters of the forest shattered and exploded, and the ground cracked open horrifying ravines. Black smoke filled with countless black insects that couldn't be seen by the naked eye spread out. Everywhere it went, everything withered and turned black. Even the grass and soil melted, oozing a thin, translucent liquid.
"So what if I can't hide it well?!!" Lu Sheng looked up, and his body suddenly exploded, turning into black smoke. The black smoke expanded, and instantly spread out for dozens of meters.
"Bam!!!"
A ten-meter-thick giant hand reached out of the black smoke, grabbing at the air where Qian Du was.
The black hand was covered in thick barbs and scales, and it was burning with heat and poison. All the halberd shadows landed on the arm, but only the sound of metal clashing could be heard.
"I'm not the one who needs to be afraid!!"
The black smoke dissipated, revealing Lu Sheng's enormous body. He was a behemoth that was close to twenty meters tall. His lower limbs were so thick that they were swollen. His mouth split open all the way to his ears, and a second pair of arms slowly grew out of his back. His entire body was covered in thick black smoke. At this moment, Lu Sheng looked like some kind of terrifying beast like a giant centaur.
He grabbed Qian Du and slammed her into the ground.
"Boom!!"
The ground shook, and the entire forest within dozens of miles shook violently. Yellow soil splashed dozens of meters into the air like a waterfall, mixed with many stones and broken wood.
"It's over." Lu Sheng's voice now naturally had a dangerous effect that could confuse people's minds. It was vast and deep, sometimes far and sometimes close.
"Yes, it's over." Qian Du's voice came from above Lu Sheng.
"Puff!"
Everything around him changed in an instant, as if countless pigments were mixed together and the colors were constantly stirred. Everything around them suddenly twisted and spun faster and faster.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Sheng's vision blurred, and he came back to his senses.
He was standing calmly in a huge cave. The ceiling of the cave was inlaid with an emerald green crystal. Sunlight shone through the crystal and dyed the entire cave green.
Qian Du stood in front of him, holding a black halberd that was as tall as a person. Boiling black mud appeared in the air behind him. of Qian Du's eyes.
"Are you afraid?" Qian Du asked of him, of nowhere.
"Teacher … What do you mean? Test? Or a test? "Lu Sheng's calmness carried a hint of cold killing intent as he stared at his opponent. The one standing in front of him was just a clone. When he came back to his senses, he had already sensed it.
"Not bad at hiding. However, a peak Divine Weapon Master was willing to infiltrate the Thousand Sun Sect from the beginning.
"Of Sheng" and ", and of of of of of of Dao of Q., are, and of are of of, of, and of, and is." I God ". "I'm searching for my own path, and trying to prove something."
"Now that I've found you, what do you plan to do?" Qian Du looked up at Lu Sheng.
"The power of a Divine Weapon Master is my past. Right now, I'm just a normal Bind level disciple, and also your disciple. I'm just a normal disciple of the Thousand Sun Sect who wishes to receive your guidance," Lu Sheng replied calmly, his face expressionless.
"Then, what about your subordinates in the Great Song?"
"They are my servants."
"What about the Devils you killed in the Devil Army?"
"They are wild beasts that occasionally go out to hunt."
"And that transformation you did just now …"
"That is a martial art that I practiced casually in my family."
"I understand."
Qian Du understood what he meant.
"I can give you some pointers on the path of true energy, but you have to help me with something."
"What is it?"
"Find someone." Qian Du's eyes deepened. "A woman who looks exactly like me."
"In the Great Yin?" Lu Sheng was surprised.
"In the Great Yin. As a reward, I will teach you how to reach the Divine Lord level. Right now, you are too easily exposed. You think you are so good at hiding, but you can't hide from Divine Lords and Weapon Grandmasters. "Qian Du smiled faintly.
"I understand." Lu Sheng understood that this was a deal.
Qian Du didn't plan on exposing him. Although it wasn't a big deal, it would at most attract attention and fear. He might even be thought of as a spy from outside, which would cause Lu Sheng's goal of stealing True Qi to fail.
But now, with Qian Du's protection, he could use this advantage to learn the secrets of the Divine Lord level in advance.
"To be honest, if I didn't know about you before, I would have killed you because of the Devil Qi on you. Because you look too much like an Ancient Devil, "Qian Du explained calmly.
"Is that so?" Lu Sheng's huge body was engulfed in black smoke. Soon, the smoke became smaller and smaller, until it was only a few meters tall.
The smoke slowly dissipated, revealing Lu Sheng's calm face. Other than a layer of black scales covering his lower body, the rest of his body was bare, revealing his steel-like muscles.
Qian Du tossed a black robe to him.
"Take it and put it on. What level has your true qi cultivation reached?"
"Only the second level," Lu Sheng replied calmly. He put on the black robe. "The Light of the Great Sun Technique and the Way of the Hollow Spirit that Master taught me are both at the second level."
"And the Melting Core Earth Heart Mantra you took from the branch?" Qian Du seemed to really treat him like a normal disciple.
"It's also at the second level," Lu Sheng replied.
"Cultivate the Way of the Hollow Spirit to completion first. I will give you the rest of the mantra. Don't hide anything. Just do your best. With me here, hiding is just a waste of time. "Qian Du tossed the black halberd in her hand.
The black halberd flew into the air and spun rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it became smaller and smaller. Soon, it was the size of a peach pit. She put it gently into her sleeve.
"Also, I don't know how you reached this step. But now you're trying to combine the three essences with the True Qi Method Mantra. There's some hope, but without a Divine Weapon or Devil Blade, your body and soul won't be able to withstand the explosive growth after combining, "Qian Du continued.
Lu Sheng's pupils contracted. He didn't expect Qian Du to see through this. "Please tell me, Master."
"Your path is either the pure Demon World path and give up on the others, or find a Divine Weapon or Devil Blade to combine. Take the orthodox path of a Weapon Master. "
"Is there no other choice?"
"No, you were able to walk the path of the Demon Realm because you somehow got your hands on that special Demonic Aura. This is the first time I've seen someone without a Demonic Blade to activate that level of Demonic Aura," Qian Du said with a hint of confusion.
Lu Sheng didn't say anything.
"Your biggest problem right now is your soul. Your soul is too weak, so you can't control your body perfectly. Otherwise, your three powers wouldn't be so independent. It's more likely that something will devour everything else. The Path of the Void of Spirit has the effect of training your mind and body at the same time. Practice it well. When you've perfected it, you can enter the Secret Area yourself. "Qian Du made a grabbing motion in the air, and a small, round, golden bead appeared in her palm.
She tossed the bead to Lu Sheng. "This is the child body of the Devil Blade Seven Insect Flower Magatama. It can hide your power and aura and provide the Essence Qi here. It's also a symbol of my identity. Keep it safe. When you get out, take it out and show it when you're in trouble. There aren't many people in the Thousand Sun Sect who won't give me face. "
"Understood." Lu Sheng nodded. With the help of the pearl, he carefully placed it into his waist pouch.
"Alright, go." With Qian Du's last words, Lu Sheng's vision blurred and quickly dimmed.
Not long after, his vision blurred again, and he was back in the cultivation room in the courtyard in the city.
Sighing, Lu Sheng stood up. Although he didn't think he could hide it from everyone, he didn't expect it to be exposed so quickly.
He reached out and took out the golden bead from his waist pouch. He could feel the strong Essence Qi flowing out of it, as if it was connected to the Secret Area.
"Since Master said so, I don't need to hide it anymore."
He had enough Essence Qi, and he had the cultivation method. It was time to level up.
There were a total of three True Arts that he needed to cultivate. The first was the Path of the Void of Spirit, the second was the Light of the Great Sun Technique, and the third was the Melting Core Earth Heart Mantra.
"These three are the areas where I need to work hard on the path of true energy."
"Deep Blue." Without another word, Lu Sheng handed over the Modifier. He had already gained Qi sense for the Path of the Void of Spirit and the Light of the Great Sun Technique.
Glancing at his remaining Mental Energy, Lu Sheng was stunned.
678 units!?
He didn't expect it to be so much. Since he had so much Mental Energy, he didn't hold back. Using the golden bead, Lu Sheng leveled up the Path of the Void of Spirit to the highest level, the ninth level, and the Light of the Great Sun Technique to the highest level, the sixth level. The next three levels could only be leveled up if special conditions were met. The third Core Earth Heart Mantra was even faster. In the blink of an eye, it reached the highest level, the ninth level.
The three True Arts cost Lu Sheng a total of 155 units of Mental Energy. After using them all, he still had 523 units left.
Among them, the Light of the Great Sun Technique was only at the sixth level. Even so, Lu Sheng's True Qi reached the peak of the Seven Vein Formation.
For others, once their True Qi reached a certain level, they would at most reach the Black Membrane Hard Point. The rest of their attacks would have to be slowly trained. But for Lu Sheng, there was no need for that. At this level, he was already an expert of this level.
At this level, he had temporarily reached the peak, and couldn't level up anymore. The seventh level of the Light of the Great Sun Technique required a special environment that was filled with blue light without heat.
After leveling up so much in one go, by the time Lu Sheng was done, it was already dark outside.
He stood up, opened the door, and walked into the courtyard. He saw Duanmu Wan giving orders to a few servants.
The entire courtyard was clean and tidy.
The ground was much cleaner, and there was less dirt on the walls. Some of the old places were also replaced with new ones.
