It could be said that something shocking had happened as soon as Lu Changsheng had returned to the sacred ground.
The new Sacred Leader.
It was a huge matter.
Usually, a Sacred Leader would be replaced by a Saint. The Sacred Leader would either ascend or reach the end of their lifespan. Otherwise, the Sacred Leader would not be replaced.
After all, the Sacred Leader was the belief of all the disciples in a sacred ground. If you didn't receive everyone's approval and became the Sacred Leader, the entire sect would not be convinced.
Even if you were convinced, the rest of the world would not.
When the Sacred Leader Meeting was held in the future, everyone would be cultivators who had lived for thousands of years. Wouldn't it lower everyone's status if someone in their twenties or fifties became the Sacred Leader?
However, the Daira Holy Place had chosen Lu Changsheng as the new Sacred Leader.
What was rare was that not a single person from the Daira Holy Place objected. Everyone was in favor of it.
After the news spread, the sacred grounds immediately congratulated Lu Changsheng. Not a single Sect in the Middle Continent objected. Everyone supported it. It was extremely rare.
Many sacred grounds even thought that it should have been like this from the start.
However, it was only a little surprising. What really shocked the world wasn't this.
At the Violet Azure Sacred Ground.
The Violet Azure Sacred Ground was studying the sword manual when dozens of core disciples suddenly swarmed over.
"Saint, Saint."
"Saint, I heard that Senior Brother Lu reached the 108th step on the Heaven Ascending Platform in the Tianyuan Holy Land. Is that true?"
Li Ran, who was studying the sword manual, was dumbfounded when he heard this.
He thought about it carefully. Lu Changsheng had only reached the 81st step, right?
"Where did you hear this from?"
Li Ran was a little angry. Senior Brother Lu was indeed extraordinary, but they couldn't just say it like that.
"Saint, you still don't know?"
"Everyone is saying that Senior Brother Lu obtained a great Immortal Opportunity in Sky Yuan Holy Land, especially on the Sky Reaching Platform. There are only 81 steps on the Sky Reaching Platform, but Senior Brother Lu climbed all the way to the 108th step, alarming the Immortals. Don't tell me you don't know about this?"
"That's right. Elder Brother Lu even said something like that. He said that the reason I was able to reach the eighty-first stair wasn't because I could only reach eighty-first stair, but because the Heaven Ascension Platform only has eighty-first stair. Holy Son, you … didn't know?"
The disciples looked at Li Ran curiously.
"Cough … How could I not know?" Li Ran was confused, but on the surface, he maintained a straight face and said, "But these are all rumors. Senior Apprentice Brother Lu didn't just reach the 108th step, he reached the 365th step!"
He said confidently.
"Hiss! Three hundred and sixty-five steps? "
"Really?"
"Holy Son, are you deceiving us?"
They were stunned.
"You guys are really short-sighted. Who is Senior Apprentice Brother Lu? If he didn't reach the 365th step, Sacred Leader Daira wouldn't let Senior Apprentice Brother Lu inherit the position of the Sacred Leader. Alright, don't worry about this. Focus on your cultivation. "
Li Ran said firmly.
After saying that, he returned to his residence and started cultivating the sword manual in seclusion.
Shu Sect sacred ground.
Xu Jian stood on the Dao Exchange Platform and looked at the tens of thousands of disciples as he spoke with extreme seriousness.
"Elder Brother Lu took one step at a time, one step at a time, one step at a time. When he reached the eighty-first step, do you know what he said to me?"
"He said! Junior Apprentice Brother Xu, did you think that I had reached the end? "
"At that moment, I nodded my head subconsciously. However, something unbelievable happened. I saw that Senior Brother Lu take another step forward. In an instant, immortal light shone resplendently. There were thousands of rays of auspicious light, and even the figures of immortals appeared in the void."
"At that moment, Senior Apprentice Brother Lu said, Junior Apprentice Brother Xu, I only reached the 81st step because there were only 81 steps. However, if Senior Apprentice Brother was willing, I could even reach the 108th step, the 365th step, or even the 720th step."
"After saying that, Senior Apprentice Brother Lu stepped onto the 720th step! At that moment, I completely understood the difference between me and Senior Apprentice Brother Lu. He didn't belong to this world, he only belonged to the immortal world. However, Senior Apprentice Brother Lu said one last thing to me. "
"He said, Junior Apprentice Brother Xu, although your talent is good and you're handsome, cultivation doesn't rely on looks or talent, but on self-improvement! At that moment, I had an epiphany. I understood. Junior Brothers, you must also remember this well. Cultivation does not rely on looks, nor does it rely on aptitude. It relies on constant self-improvement. Do you understand? "
Xu Jian said emotionally. He looked up into the sky and put on a melancholic expression, causing the hearts of countless disciples to skip a beat.
Sacred Ground of Linglong …
Countless disciples had gathered, and a female disciple was sitting in the middle of the training ground, speaking excitedly.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Lu arrived at the Path of Immortalization. All he had to do was take one step forward to become an immortal. However, at the crucial moment, Senior Apprentice Brother Lu didn't take the step. He turned around and gave up on becoming an immortal. Someone asked Senior Apprentice Brother Lu why he didn't become an immortal."
"Do you know what Senior Apprentice Brother Lu said?"
"What did he say? Senior Apprentice Sister, what did Senior Apprentice Brother Lu say? "
"Senior Apprentice Brother Lu didn't say anything. He just glanced at our Saintess Linglong, and didn't say anything after that. He slowly walked away."
The female disciple said tenderly.
All the female disciples of the Linglong Sacred Land were stunned.
"I didn't expect Senior Apprentice Brother Lu to be so gentle. Ahhhh, I love him!"
"I love him too!"
"Aren't you ashamed of yourselves? In front of so many people! "
"When I first saw Senior Apprentice Brother Lu, I had a feeling that he must be a gentle person. Who would have thought that I was right! If I can have a passionate love affair with Senior Apprentice Brother Lu, I can die without regrets!"
"You? Why don't you look in the mirror and see if you're worthy of Senior Apprentice Brother Lu? "
"Hmph, what does that have to do with you? I can't even think about it! "
"Our Saintess is going to die of happiness!"
"Ahhhh, so sweet! From today onward, Senior Apprentice Brother Lu will be my dream lover!"
All the disciples went limp. It was too intoxicating.
"Are you for real?"
However, there were some who were curious, and thought that it was impossible. After all, how many cultivators would be willing to give up on becoming an immortal?
"You don't believe me? You can ask the Saintess. Isn't the Saintess cultivating on that mountain? "
The female disciple on the training ground said.
"Saintess, is this real or fake?"
Someone immediately asked Saintess Linglong loudly.
The latter snapped out of her thoughts.
She glanced at the crowd.
She wanted to deny it.
But in the end, she changed her mind.
"More or less."
The voice was heard, followed by exclamations.
Meanwhile, Saintess Linglong was a little stunned.
She did not know why, but ever since she bid farewell to Lu Changsheng at the Tianyuan Sacred Ground.
Lu Changsheng's face would appear in her mind from time to time.
As the rumors continued to change, a few days later, the situation changed for some reason.
The entire Zhongzhou fell into a war of words for no reason.
