"Then you've come to the wrong place." Lu Sheng laughed. "The immortals of Daoism will not accept people with imperfect temperaments. You've come for revenge, so your heart is flawed. You have irreparable wounds. "
Zhuang Yinxue's expression brightened. Ordinary people might not understand what he was saying, but she had been educated since she was young. Naturally, she understood what Mr. Lu meant.
"Sir, you mean …?" Her eyes widened, and she became nervous. This was because she recalled the few times when she met Daoists and begged them to take her in. She recalled the words they said.
Those Daoists' words were almost the same.
"If you want to cultivate, you either have to give up on revenge now, or go back for revenge and come back alone," Lu Sheng said calmly.
“！！”
No matter how stupid Zhuang Yinxue was, she knew that the person in front of her was not simple.
Her pretty face heated up, and her emotions surged. She became more and more nervous. But when she heard Lu Sheng's request. Her bright eyes dimmed again.
After a long time … she spoke slowly.
"I … can't do it …"
Lu Sheng laughed.
"Then what can you do?"
Zhuang Yinxue bit her lip.
"I can do everything I can!" She knelt on the ground. "Please, Immortal Senior, take me as your disciple!!"
From the beginning, she felt that Lu Sheng was not simple. Only now did she truly understand that the person in front of her was a legendary hermit immortal, an expert of Daoism.
Actually, in the eyes of mortals like her, anyone who cultivated Daoism and possessed supernatural powers was an immortal.
She could not care about anything else. As long as it was an immortal senior, she would not let go of even the slightest chance.
"You said you can do everything?" Lu Sheng's smiling gaze swept across Zhuang Yinxue.
"Yes!" Zhuang Yinxue gritted her teeth and lowered her head, trembling all over. "Please, Immortal Senior!" She kowtowed fiercely, but when her head hit the ground, it hit a layer of soft air cushion. She was instantly shocked and overjoyed.
Only the legendary hermit immortals were capable of such methods.
"Originally, I was just taking a stroll. Under such circumstances, it was fate that I was able to meet you." Lu Sheng smiled. "You said you can do everything?"
"Yes!" Zhuang Yinxue had a bad feeling … Could it be that she had encountered …
However, she did not dare to give up. Her hope was getting smaller and smaller, and she could not even see the last trace of hope. She could not give up!
"As long as you accept me as your disciple, I can do anything!!"
"You'll do whatever I tell you to?" The smile on Lu Sheng's face grew wider.
"Yes!" Zhuang Yinxue gritted her teeth and nodded.
A moment of silence ensued.
"Then, what if I want you to die?" Lu Sheng raised his head and looked at the gradually approaching Kongying Mountain.
"Dead?!"
Zhuang Yinxue's face instantly turned pale.
She raised her head and looked at Lu Sheng, confirming that Lu Sheng was not joking with her.
"…" She lowered her head, and her expression became even more desolate. The sliver of hope that she had initially carried also quickly dimmed.
Suddenly, she pulled out her longsword and slashed it across her neck.
"Pcchht!!"
Blood splattered everywhere. Zhuang Yinxue's eyes widened, and her entire body fell backward weakly. Large amounts of blood gushed out from her neck.
Lu Sheng was also stunned. He did not expect this girl to be so ruthless. He could tell that Zhuang Yinxue was not really committing suicide, but was using her own life as a wager, a wager on this tiny sliver of hope.
The deck was splattered with blood. Zhuang Yinxue had already collapsed to the ground, unable to move. Her arteries and trachea had all been severed.
Her lungs were filled with blood, and she could not receive any oxygen. Zhuang Yinxue's entire face grew paler and paler, and it looked like she was about to die.
Murder!
Not far away, the people around the cabin also saw this scene, and they screamed loudly. Some even rushed over hurriedly.
Since something like this had happened on the ship, as the boatman, he had to deal with it properly no matter what. Otherwise, it would have a negative impact on his business in the future.
There were already a few guards roaring as they rushed toward Lu Sheng.
"How dare you commit murder!!?"
"Catch him!"
Waves of shouts spread out continuously.
However, Lu Sheng did not move. He merely looked calmly at Zhuang Yinxue, whose consciousness was quickly fading.
"Alright!"
Suddenly, he waved his right hand. A stream of white Qi shot out, accurately entering Zhuang Yinxue's Baihui acupoint on the top of her head, and disappeared in an instant.
Immediately, Zhuang Yinxue's throat that had been severed healed. The large amounts of blood that had entered her lungs were quickly absorbed and decomposed. Oxygen once again flowed into her trachea.
This scene frightened the people who were about to rush forward, and they immediately stopped in their tracks, not daring to move. Seeing this, anyone who was not an idiot would know that Lu Sheng was no ordinary person.
"I …?" Zhuang Yinxue reached out and touched her neck in a daze. Her throat had just been slit, and the pain of blood dripping from it was still lingering in her consciousness.
"If you're still willing, wait for me at the shore in two hours." Lu Sheng waved his sleeve, and another spot of white light shot into Zhuang Yinxue's forehead.
After doing this, he tapped the ground with his foot, and leapt into the air.
There was nothing left in this world that he was reluctant to leave behind. He needed to finish what he needed to do before he left, to make his final preparations.
Large amounts of black Qi automatically spread out from beneath his feet, and carried him straight towards Kongying Mountain.
Lu Sheng transformed into a black meteor, and crashed into the white fog.
"Who goes there!? How dare you trespass on Kongying Mountain! "
A long white shadow that was over a thousand meters long swiftly appeared in the fog, and it rumbled with a low rumble.
The fog dispersed, and the long shadow's true form was revealed. It was a white flood dragon that was over a thousand meters long.
It had two horns on its head, and no scales on its body. It had four golden claws, and a pair of large lantern-sized eyes shone with a piercing red light.
When it saw the black meteor that Lu Sheng had transformed into, the white dragon roared furiously, and swung its huge tail at Lu Sheng.
"Bam!"
The huge sound of impact shook the surrounding fog, and it turned into a large white ring that scattered.
The white dragon wailed, and its tail was pulled by the huge impact, and it crashed into the ground.
The ground shook violently. The man and dragon crashed into the ground at the foot of Kongying Mountain in the blink of an eye. A large patch of white pine forest was destroyed, and a barren land was forcefully carved out.
The white dragon groaned. It wanted to struggle to its feet, but its entire body was bound by countless black Qi. It was shocked and furious, and it desperately tried to break free. However, the more it struggled, the stronger the black Qi bound it.
Amid swooshing sounds, streaks of white flowing light shot out from Kongying Mountain. They hovered in midair far away, and looked down at the white dragon's situation.
"What kind of monster are you?! How dare you behave atrociously in the Indefinite Cult?! " A strong, strange man with two heads and golden armor took a step forward. He held a golden truncheon in his hand as he roared furiously.
At this moment, large amounts of black Qi rose from the ground, and condensed into Lu Sheng's figure.
He wore a long black robe, and his face was concealed by the thick fog. Only a pair of crimson eyes could be seen. His body emitted the faint sound of something slicing through the air. It was as if a large number of sharp objects were slicing through the air at high speed.
"I'm Xuan Kongzi. I heard that the Indefinite Cult is filled with elites and immortals. That's why I've traveled so far to pay you a visit. " Lu Sheng randomly chose a Taoist name to disguise himself. After all, he was here to probe and stall for time. It did not matter if he made up a Taoist name.
Another black-bearded Taoist stepped forward and said coldly, "What a nice visit. You've completely subdued the Indefinite Cult's Mountain Guardian Divine Beast the moment you arrived. Are you here to demonstrate your strength, or are you here to pay us a visit?"
"Since this is a visit and an exchange, do you dare to respond when I call you?!"
"Hmm?" Lu Sheng found the voice slightly familiar. However, there was nothing in this world that he did not dare to do.
"Of course, no problem. I'm right here. Please call me, fellow Daoist," he replied with a smile.
"Xuan Kongzi! Xuan Kongzi! Xuan Kongzi! "A gourd suddenly appeared in the black-bearded Taoist's hand. He shouted three times at Lu Sheng.
"I'm right here. Greetings," Lu Sheng said with a smile as he cupped his fists.
"Whoosh!"
In an instant, scarlet flames shot out of the gourd. The flames swiftly gathered and formed a Fire Qilin that was as tall as three men.
The moment the Qilin appeared, it lunged at Lu Sheng.
"I see. Is this a special technique that's unleashed according to the other party's response? I can destroy a mere flame manifestation with a single hand. "
Lu Sheng smiled faintly. He flicked his finger, and a black mist shot out. It transformed into a white dragon in midair. It was a perfect imitation of the Mountain Guardian Divine Beast, the white dragon.
"Roar!"
The white dragon lunged at the Qilin.
"Bam!"
The white dragon shattered, and the Qilin lunged.
Lu Sheng was dumbfounded. Before he could react, the Qilin rammed into his chest.
"Puh!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood. He was sent flying.
"Boom!"
With a loud sound, he crashed into the ground like a meteor. Numerous faint golden rune chains shot out of thin air from the white mist around him.
The densely packed rune chains bound his entire body with precision. A huge formation that stretched for several hundred meters slowly appeared on the ground in front of Kongying Mountain.
"Interesting. Why don't you ask around? The Indefinite Cult's Qianling Recovery Formation is the most powerful ancient formation passed down since ancient times. It can increase the power of the Art within the formation by a hundred times. Do you think you're courting death just because you're slightly capable? Heh, it's rare to encounter such a stupid wild cultivator these days, "the black-bearded Taoist said with a laugh as he shook his head.
"I'll go see if that fellow's dead." The two-headed strange man laughed as well. He flew toward where Lu Sheng had landed on a cloud.
The white smoke and black mist slowly dispersed. The two-headed strange man waved his hand and created a wave of air that dispersed the smoke around him. After flying for several hundred meters, he finally saw the condition of the person on the ground clearly.
Cracks covered an area of several hundred meters like dried up earth. The sea of trees on the ground was covered in spiderweb-like cracks.
In the center of the cracks, a pitch-black figure was coughing violently with his head lowered and back bent.
"Oh? You're not dead? You're lucky. Come, follow me obediently, and you'll be spared some physical pain. "The two-headed strange man smiled as he flew closer.
"I've underestimated you lot." Lu Sheng coughed a few times and straightened his back. He looked at the densely packed golden rune chains on his body.
"This formation is quite interesting. However, I've been well-versed in formations for many years. Do you think you can trap me with such a small formation? I can break it with a single hand. Dark Sky Flying Crane, Nine Return to One! Break! Break! Break! "
Lu Sheng shouted three times. Large amounts of black mist suddenly retracted from his body. Then, it exploded again. Countless black clouds gathered and formed a huge black tiger. It roared at the sky.
"This technique summons an ancient true spirit and merges it with itself. When the true spirit breaks the formation, the body will break as well." Lu Sheng smiled.
"Roar!"
The huge black tiger roared at the sky. Countless black threads on its body connected to Lu Sheng behind it.
Suddenly, it fiercely rushed into the sky, fiercely smashing through the countless golden rune chains. It soared into the sky and shot straight into the thick clouds, disappearing without a trace.
Lu Sheng looked up at the black tiger breaking the formation.
"Such might, as expected of the Primordial Tiger Spirit!"
He looked down at the golden rune chains on his body that were still intact.
"But … why am I still here?" He pondered.
