The ceremony was not grand. Neither the Mu Family nor Lu Sheng wanted to publicize their relationship. Lu Sheng and Mu Qingye both decided to simply invite a few people close to them to meet and get to know each other.
After a few banquets were held in the Devil Palace, Mu Jueqing officially became Lu Sheng's first disciple.
After the ceremony, Lu Sheng immediately went to Mu Jueqing and officially taught her the Ultimate Eight-Headed Devil Way as the Prime Devil Sect's legacy cultivation method.
At the same time, Mu Jueqing officially joined the Prime Devil Sect.
There was no conflict in joining a sect as a disciple of a Noble Family. It could overlap with joining a sect. Mu Jueqing now had two identities.
The Ultimate Eight-Headed Devil Way that Lu Sheng created combined the essence of martial arts, True Qi, and Devil Skills. Other than the fact that he had cultivated it for a long time, it was an unprecedented top-notch skill.
This Devil Art was improved after being combined with the True Qi system. Although there was no change in the time it took, its power was greatly increased.
Ordinary disciples with sufficient Devil Qi would need more than a year to reach the first level, two years to reach the second level, and three years to reach the third level …
So on and so forth. In a perfect and smooth state where there were no bottlenecks at all, a total of 72 levels would take 2,628 years. Only then could one reach the top Divine Weapon Master level without relying on Divine Weapons.
However, because it lacked the core Yin Flame to evolve into Death Flame, it was extremely difficult to break through all obstacles and become a Divine Lord.
But this was the safest, step-by-step cultivation path. For a Wood Spirit Body with an extremely long lifespan, it was the perfect path.
After Lu Sheng explained the intricacies to Mu Jueqing in detail, Mu Jueqing was initially interested in the power, but she immediately rolled her eyes when she heard about the age requirement. Cultivating a cultivation method for more than two thousand years would allow one to reach the top of the Divine Weapon Master level, which was above Earth Prime. Even if her Wood Spirit Body had a long lifespan, it was not a waste of time.
However, the Wood Spirit Body truly lived up to its name. It could also greatly shorten the cultivation time. Perhaps after the time was shortened, the Ultimate Eight-Headed Devil Way could officially become the Prime Devil Sect's signature cultivation method.
When Lu Sheng had nothing to do, he would occasionally head to the World of Pain to complete missions. However, he spent most of his time at home, waiting for Chen Yunxi to give birth.
The Prime Devil Sect's expansion also gradually stabilized. Several months passed in the blink of an eye, and Chen Yunxi's belly grew bigger and bigger. At this time, the main branch of the Thousand Sun Sect sent out a transfer order.
…
Prime Devil Sect, Devil Palace.
Lu Sheng sat in the main seat, and beside him sat Elder Stone, who had just returned from a mission. The rest of the newly joined experts also sat on either side of him. Three of them were Weapon Masters.
At the bottom of the hall stood an emissary of the Thousand Sun Sect's main branch, wearing a long white robe with silver trim.
"Prefectural Sect Master Lu, this is a transfer order from the main branch. You have two choices now. The first is to head to the main branch and pay a visit to Weapon Grandmaster Thousand Sun. Secondly … the requirements are all in this letter. " The messenger presented the letter in his hands with both hands. His attitude was respectful, but the contents of his words were not pleasant to hear.
"Bring it here," Lu Sheng said flatly.
A Prime Devil Sect disciple walked up and took the letter. He carefully checked for poisonous powder or formations, then passed it to Lu Sheng one by one. Finally, Elder Stone took it and handed it to Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng lightly tore open the letter and quickly skimmed through the contents. His expression didn't change, but he sighed in his heart.
The Thousand Sun Sect finally couldn't take it anymore.
He was so obviously biased towards the Prime Devil Sect, supporting them, and taking all the resources and benefits of Moling Prefecture. This finally caused the three sects to be extremely dissatisfied.
The main branch's letter was a qualitative change after the three sects' emotions accumulated to a certain level.
"They're trying to force me to abdicate …" Lu Sheng muttered to himself. However, he was satisfied that the Prime Devil Sect had developed to this point. He couldn't advance any further in a short period of time, so it was time to rest and recuperate.
He closed the letter and looked at the emissary below.
"I've received the letter. You may go and rest."
The emissary left respectfully.
The atmosphere in the main hall was a bit heavy. No matter how fast the Prime Devil Sect developed, it was still much weaker than the traditional forces of the three sects. None of the experts present wanted to turn against the three sects.
Lu Sheng saw it all and committed it to memory.
"That's all for today. Everyone, continue with your previous missions. I will take care of this," Lu Sheng said.
"Now that the Devil Disaster has stopped, something like this happened. Looks like the main branch above …" Medicine Spirit King Bai Qi, who joined later, said in a low voice while stroking his white beard.
"Such an obvious warning. Everyone can see it. Plus, the Thousand Sun Sect has been sending people here frequently lately …" another person said coldly.
"I will take care of it," Lu Sheng said indifferently. "Today's meeting is adjourned." He stood up and walked straight to the back hall without looking at the people present.
There were already several subordinates waiting in the back hall. Seeing him come out, one of them immediately came up and said respectfully.
"Sect Master, the Secret Land Stone just glowed."
"Secret Land Stone …" The corner of Lu Sheng's eyes turned cold. He sneered. "Got it. Prepare the secret chamber."
"Understood."
The subordinates left.
Lu Sheng first went to check on Chen Yunxi in the Lu Manor. He listened to her stomach for a while, then reminded her of some things to be careful of. Then, he returned to the Devil Palace and went into seclusion in the secret chamber.
After quickly calming his mind, he directly entered the Secret Area that he hadn't entered in a long time.
It was the same cave where Su Ningfei was. Su Ningfei wore a black dress that trailed the ground, revealing her porcelain-like skin above her chest. Her long hair fell down like a black waterfall. She was holding an instrument that looked like a pipa and playing it softly in the cave.
Lu Sheng's body slowly appeared in a corner of the cave, solidifying.
After his body materialized, he didn't disturb Su Ningfei immediately. Instead, he stood quietly in the corner and listened to the beautiful music she played.
The music was sometimes soft, sometimes loud, sometimes thunderous, and sometimes soothing. It seemed to rise and fall according to Su Ningfei's mood.
It was obvious that Su Ningfei's mood was extremely complicated. There was even conflict and killing intent.
After more than an hour, the music finally stopped.
"You're here?" The woman turned around. Her misty eyes quickly cleared up after seeing Lu Sheng, and became as unfathomable as before.
"Didn't you want me to come, Master?" Lu Sheng said respectfully with his head lowered.
Su Ningfei was a terrifying existence that was infinitely close to a Weapon Grandmaster. Only a few people in the Great Yin could defeat her. He hadn't even broken through to Divine Intellect yet. If they really fought, he had no chance of winning.
"You still know that I'm your master?" Su Ningfei said coldly.
"Why do you say that, Master? Did I do something wrong? "Lu Sheng asked in confusion.
"Since you know I'm your master, did you get my permission for everything you're doing?" Su Ningfei said coldly.
"Everything I'm doing? You're asking … "Lu Sheng didn't understand.
"Recklessly expanding your territory, stealing resources, and even suppressing your own sect's branch. Do you even care about the interests of the Thousand Sun Sect?" Su Ningfei asked.
"I'm just trying to make the lives of my family better. Master, there's no need to make such a big deal out of it." Lu Sheng smiled. He could tell that she was just using this as an excuse to make a fuss. It seemed that Su Ningfei must've run into some trouble on this trip, and it didn't go smoothly. Also, the people in the prefecture sect might have reported it to the main sect, and they were questioning Su Ningfei.
"You have a lot of excuses …" Su Ningfei put down her instrument and stood up. Her black dress suddenly turned into countless branches and leaves, dispersing into the bottom of her dress. Soon, the long dress became a short skirt, revealing most of her thighs above the knee. It looked simple and sexy.
"Teacher, is there something bothering you? If I can help you, I will definitely do so." Lu Sheng could see clearly that Su Ningfei had come to denounce him. The main sect must've been pressuring her.
If he wanted this woman to help him, there had to be an exchange of benefits.
He wasn't worried that she would attack him. After all, he was still the prefecture sect master of Moling, an important member of the Thousand Sun Sect, and the Divine Lord of the sect. Under the rules of the sect, she couldn't kill him.
Su Ningfei's tone softened when she saw that Lu Sheng was so understanding. She had always been indifferent to this so-called disciple of hers. Sometimes, she would send a Divine Lord to deal with some troublesome matters. At least she had a card in her hand.
The two of them didn't have much of a conflict, so she didn't want to weaken the power she could use for no reason.
So when she saw Lu Sheng give in so quickly, she also softened.
"It's good that you understand. These are troubled times. The situation on the surface is already very serious, and there's a storm brewing behind the scenes …"
"Master, please explain." Lu Sheng didn't want to listen to her long speech.
Su Ningfei rolled her eyes at him. "I was careless before, and didn't point out the path for you after becoming a Divine Lord. But now that you've found your own path, I'm relieved. Every Sacred Lord had a direction that belonged to them. At this stage, simply defending in the Great Yin won't be of much use. Do you know why you didn't feel anything when there was news of a battle between Weapon Grandmasters in the Great Yin? "
"I don't …" Lu Sheng was curious about this as well.
Logically speaking, if the power of a Divine Intellect Divine Lord was 10, then a Weapon Grandmaster would be at least 100. The difference between the two was huge.
This was what he calculated based on the legends in the books. When such powerful individuals fought, it was possible for the shockwaves to spread for thousands of kilometers.
But he didn't feel anything in the Moling Prefecture.
"This involves a huge secret that you might not have heard of before." Su Ningfei smiled, and her expression softened.
"In reality, our Secret Area, and many other Outer Worlds, are all small spheres that surround the main world. As for the Origin World, it was the largest sphere. It floats and spins in a pitch-black environment called the Star Universe. "
"Star Universe?!" Lu Sheng pretended to be shocked and moved. His guess was right. The top experts of this world had the ability to recognize the concept of a planet.
Next, Su Ningfei imparted a series of knowledge to him. She clearly pointed out that the Great Yin, the Great Song, and many other great dynasties, including the Devil World, were all on one planet.
Even the World of Pain was the same.
