The fact that he killed the Thousand Hands Demon Saint alone shocked countless cultivators and also made the elites like the Golden Crow Prince fall silent.
They didn\'t know Lu Changsheng\'s realm and thought that Lu Changsheng was a perfected Immortal Venerate like them. They were shocked to see him kill an enemy that was a major realm higher than them.
However, they didn't despair. They still had their own trump cards, and were confident that they would be able to catch up to Lu Changsheng. In fact, there were even a few Chosen who believed that surpassing Lu Changsheng wasn't impossible.
However, they couldn\'t help but be shocked by the combat power that Lu Changsheng had displayed.
At least, they couldn\'t reach Lu Changsheng\'s level now.
After the Thousand Hands Demon Saint died, a black door condensed and seemed to lead to the next level.
At this moment, Lu Changsheng had also returned to the Gilded Disc.
As soon as he landed, Taishang Xuanji walked over quickly.
He looked at Lu Changsheng with extreme excitement.
"Senior apprentice-brother Lu, are you related to my Supreme Sacred Land?"
Taishang Xuanji was extremely excited and asked with desire in his eyes.
If they were really related, the Grand Sacred Ground would really have picked up a treasure.
Huh?
Lu Changsheng was a little confused and didn\'t understand what he meant.
However, at this moment, Xing Chenzi and Xu Qing also walked over.
"Senior Brother Lu, do you know the elders of the Star Sacred Ground?"
"Senior Brother Lu, you must know the elders of the Qing Yun Sacred Ground, right?"
Even the Peacock King couldn\'t help but walk over and look at Lu Changsheng. "Brother Lu, are you from the Peacock Race too?"
Everyone discussed animatedly. Only the Golden Crow Prince and Ye Rujin were relatively calm and didn\'t come over to ask, but their eyes were full of curiosity.
In an instant, Lu Changsheng understood what these people meant.
When he executed their ultimate art, although the style of the move had changed, there was no change in the source. They could sense it immediately.
However, they couldn\'t explain how he learned it, so they mistakenly thought that he knew the higher-ups of their sacred ground and mastered this ultimate technique.
Gasp!
Lu Changsheng couldn't help being stunned. This was really a bunch of clever little ghosts.
To be honest, he had been thinking about how to explain this matter later. However, he didn't expect that this bunch of smart kids had already thought of a way out for him.
What a bunch of good people.
"Sigh! Since I've already been exposed, I won't hide it anymore. " Scanning the crowd, Lu Changsheng knew that he had to give a satisfactory answer. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get over this hurdle.
After all, in the Celestial World, every Celestial Sect possessed a unique set of supreme Celestial Arts. If it was leaked to the outside world, it would bring about great trouble. The Holy Lands would not allow the loss of their supreme Celestial Arts.
It was just like a unique skill. In the entire world, only one person was able to create it. Thus, no matter how much money you sold it for, someone would pay for it. However, once the skill was learned by others, it would bring about a terrifying amount of trouble. Just thinking about it, one could imagine how terrifying it would be.
Not to mention Immortal Cultivation!
Therefore, Lu Changsheng had to give a satisfactory answer.
"Actually, as early as 60 years ago, when I just ascended, I entered a mysterious space. There were many experts in there. When they saw that I was extraordinary, they thought that I was the Chosen One. Disregarding my feelings, they directly imparted their secret techniques to me."
"I shouldn\'t have mentioned this matter. However, now that the ultimate technique has been exposed, I can only explain it clearly. Furthermore, I don\'t know who they are. Perhaps they\'re related to the various Holy Lands and Dynasties."
Lu Changsheng spoke. He was purely making things up.
Furthermore, he thought that the more detailed the lie, the easier it would be for flaws to appear. Therefore, Lu Changsheng didn\'t go into too much detail and merely played it down.
After all, the simpler the writing style, the more it would move the hearts of the readers.
The simpler the lie, the more believable it would be.
Furthermore, having cultivated for 80 years, Lu Changsheng knew the nature of the cultivators of the six realms. The more you said, the more they wouldn\'t believe it. If you just said a few simple sentences, they would believe it completely.
Well, this group of people had already completely believed it.
"So that\'s the case. As expected, as expected. Senior Brother Lu, let me tell you, the eternal black hole you just used is a supreme immortal technique of my Sacred Lands. The person who imparted this supreme immortal technique to you must be an elder of my Sacred Lands. Senior Brother Lu, you\'re my senior brother."
"No, no, no, Brother Xuanji, you\'re wrong. Senior Brother Lu is a disciple of my Sacred Lands of Stars. Senior Brother Lu, you\'re my senior brother."
"Can you guys have some shame? Senior Brother Lu must be my senior brother, okay? "
"What a joke. Your senior brother? Senior Brother Lu must be related to my Dragon Clan. Senior Brother Lu, although you look like a human, I can feel that you have a dragon vein in your body. Don\'t say anymore. From today onwards, you\'re my big brother. "
The Golden Wyrm King spoke with an extremely determined expression.
"Heh! Dragon Clan? Brother Lu must be from my Peacock Clan. Brother Lu, spread your feathers! Let them see the power of my Peacock Clan. "
The Peacock King said forcefully.
This stunned Lu Changsheng.
Spread my feathers? How?
"Okay, Fellow Daoists, this is not the time to argue about this. Wait until we leave the Immortal Emperor's Tomb. Once we return, we can ask the experts of the clan to investigate. Right now, we need to leave the tomb."
The Golden Crow Prince spoke. He was the most serious person in the group. He felt that the current matter was not to argue about who Lu Changsheng was related to, but to leave the tomb.
Lu Changsheng nodded. The higher one's cultivation, the more intelligent they would be. The Golden Crow Prince was not bad; he knew what was most important at the moment.
However, the Golden Crow Prince secretly sent a message.
"Brother Lu, you should know a certain big shot from my Golden Crow Clan, right? I feel that you have a connection with an ancient great character from our clan. Maybe you are my uncle. "
The Golden Crow Prince sent a message.
Lu Changsheng was surprised. An uncle was here?
However, he did have a connection with the Golden Crow Clan. It was that Three-legged Sand Eagle that he still remembered.
It was that Three-legged Golden Crow that was sealed in Gu Aotian's body. He didn't know how Gu Aotian was right now. Was he still on the Divine Mountain or somewhere else?
The Golden Crow Prince was shocked after seeing Lu Changsheng pondering without saying anything.
Really?
"Brother Lu, I understand. Some things can't be said carelessly. Do you have time to come visit my Golden Crow Clan after we leave?"
The Golden Crow Prince continued.
"We'll see."
Lu Changsheng simply replied. This matter was easy to discuss. The most important thing right now was to leave this damned place.
"Everyone, we can't let our guard down right now. We don't know what dangers we will encounter next, so we must stay alert."
Lu Changsheng spoke, reminding everyone not to let their guard down. After all, this was only the first stage, and they had almost been completely wiped out. Out of the millions of cultivators, only six hundred thousand remained. Only the heavens knew what dangers awaited them next.
"Yes!"
The cultivators nodded and gave their answer.
Lu Changsheng was right. They didn't know what troubles they would encounter next, so they had to stay alert. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome if they died here.
"In that case, let's take turns meditating to recover our immortal power and adjust our state before leaving."
Lu Changsheng said. After that, he sat cross-legged under the ancient tree to recover his immortal power. He needed to replenish all the immortal power he had just consumed.
Although he could directly use the holy spring to recover his immortal power, Lu Changsheng felt that it was a little extravagant. No one knew what troubles they would encounter in this damned place, so he had to save as much as he could.
Soon, 365 cyclones condensed around Lu Changsheng under the ancient tree, absorbing a large amount of immortal power and forming a tornado. The amount of immortal power absorbed by one person was greater than the amount absorbed by hundreds of thousands of cultivators combined.
Everyone clicked their tongues and couldn't help but admire how terrifying Lu Changsheng was.
Meanwhile, Taishang Xuanji and the others were still arguing about which sacred ground Lu Changsheng belonged to.
Just like that, two hours passed.
Lu Changsheng's essence, qi, and spirit were full. After waiting for half a day for all 600,000 cultivators to recover, everyone entered the ancient door in an orderly manner.
The leader was Lu Changsheng. He had the Mysterious Yellow Pagoda above his head to protect everyone as they carefully crossed the ancient door.
No one knew what was behind the ancient door, nor did they know if the next level would be more dangerous. The only thing they knew was that it was better to be safe than sorry.
The ancient door was a thousand feet wide and could accommodate tens of thousands of people in one go.
The Exquisite Pagoda above Lu Changsheng's head shone with billions of wisps of Mysterious Yellow Qi, protecting him, the Golden Crow Prince, and the others.
However, after Lu Changsheng crossed the ancient door, a wasteland soon appeared in front of them.
It was late at night.
There was no sun or moon. Looking up, there were only some dim stars standing in the sky, making this place look even more desolate and strange.
A faint mist shrouded the place, making countless cultivators feel uncontrollably afraid.
The ground was brown. No one knew if it was stained with blood or something else, but it looked extremely mournful.
Moreover, a large amount of ominous energy shrouded them. The Mysterious Yellow Pagoda trembled. This was a treasure of extreme Yang, but it was a bit dim at this moment.
This place was terrifying and full of unknowns.
Moreover, divine intents were greatly suppressed here. Even Lu Changsheng could only use a little bit of his divine intent, less than ten feet.
"Be careful."
Lu Changsheng said. He infused his immortal energy into the pagoda. In the blink of an eye, the pagoda trembled and released wisps of Mysterious Yellow Qi to expel the darkness and ominous energy.
Everyone nodded and closely followed Lu Changsheng.
No one knew where this place was, but the only way to find the exit was to move forward.
Lu Changsheng's pace was not fast. He walked slowly.
Just like that, two hours passed before a voice rang out.
"Where are they? Where did they go? "
"They got separated."
"Daoist Wang, where did you go?"
"Daoist Chen, stop playing around and come back."
"What the hell is this place?"
A series of voices came from behind him.
Lu Changsheng stopped and looked back. The prince and the others also looked back.
Although there were still quite a few cultivators, they had indeed lost more than half. Of the 600,000 cultivators, only about 200,000 remained.
"Everyone, stay close! Be careful. "
Lu Changsheng spoke again with a frown. He knew that this place was strange, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Strangeness descended.
Darkness shrouded them.
There was no sound.
This was the most terrifying thing. One couldn't see or touch it, but it still existed.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the prince's voice was heard.
"Brother Lu! They're all gone. "
The prince's voice brought Lu Changsheng back to his senses. He looked back and sure enough, all the cultivators were gone except for the thirteen of them.
Everyone's expressions became unsightly in the blink of an eye.
"Master, did you sense something?"
Lu Changsheng spoke. He asked because this buddhist grandmaster was standing at the very back. Theoretically, he should be able to discover something.
"It's hard to sense." The old monk shook his head and continued: "This place is very strange. There's something restricting our divine intents and senses. We won't be able to sense it even if someone disappears."
He opened his mouth and said so.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Indeed, they would subconsciously ignore the others as they kept walking forward. Eventually, there would only be one person left.
"Let's get closer. Fairy Ye, Fairy Liu, the two of you stand behind me. Brother Golden Crow, you and Grandmaster will stand behind us. Every half an hour, we will count."
Lu Changsheng spoke. They were in a very passive situation right now and couldn't randomly search for others. They could only keep moving forward. Otherwise, they might be trapped to death in this place.
"Okay!"
Everyone nodded. Of the two, one had the flame of the sun while the other was an ancient monk of the Buddhist faith. If any evil beings appeared, they could completely suppress them.
The others weren't so good. Their immortal arts didn't have the power to destroy evil, or rather, they weren't as powerful as them.
The group quickly kept moving forward.
However, Liu Ruyan's voice sounded.
"These 600,000 cultivators won't die, right?"
Her voice rang out as she asked.
"Impossible! He wants to silently kill 600,000 cultivators? That's impossible! This is probably just a trapping array, meant to trap them!"
Taishang Xuanji said, thinking that it was impossible.
"Not necessarily. After all, we haven't figured out whether this is a dead tomb or a living tomb."
The Champion Marquis didn't agree with what Taishang Xuanji said.
The reason being, they really hadn't figured out whether this was a dead tomb or a living tomb.
"Are tombs divided into dead and living?"
Xu Qing's voice was full of curiosity.
"Yes! Humans have life and death, so do tombs. The so-called dead tomb means that the tomb owner doesn't want anyone to disturb his sleep, while the living tomb means that the tomb owner hopes that his inheritance can be passed down. In other words, the tomb owner has something to tell the later generations. Although there are many obstacles in the tomb, there will always be a chance of survival. It's just a test to see if you're qualified to inherit his inheritance. That's the difference between a dead tomb and a living tomb. "
Lu Changsheng's voice sounded.
As an Immortal Array Master, he had a high level of attainment in array formations. However, after ascending, apart from slightly improving his array formations when he was comprehending the Wordless Heavenly Book, he didn't cultivate array formations most of the time. Even so, he still knew a lot of things.
Array formations were all-encompassing, including the mountains, rivers, the sun, the moon, the general trend of the world, luck, and feng shui.
The tomb happened to have a lot in common with the mountains, rivers, the sun, the moon, the general trend of the world, luck, and feng shui.
Hence, a good array formation master might not necessarily be a tomb robber, but a good tomb robber would definitely be a good array formation master.
Lu Changsheng was well-versed in array formations and had mastered supreme array formations. Naturally, he had a unique understanding and knowledge of the tomb.
"Senior Brother Lu really knows a lot, no wonder he's Senior Brother Lu."
Liu Ruyan chuckled.
The Champion Marquis was slightly stunned and felt a little sad. Although Lu Changsheng did know a lot, he knew a lot too. Why didn't he praise him?
"Is this a living tomb or a dead tomb?"
Ye Rujin continued to ask.
Everyone really didn't know how to answer this question.
"It should be a living tomb, but I can't be sure."
Lu Changsheng thought for a moment and answered.
"It should be a dead tomb, right? A Great Perfection Stage Devil Saint appeared in the first stage, how can it be a living tomb? "
Gu Zhentian spoke. He said so.
Everyone nodded at his words.
Indeed, if it was a living tomb, a Great Perfection Stage Devil Saint appeared in the first stage, was that it? Or a living tomb?
"No! If it's a dead tomb, there's no second stage to talk about. "
Lu Changsheng's words made everyone come to a sudden realization.
Yes, if it was a dead tomb, would it bother with the first stage, the second stage, and the third stage? Why would he waste so much time talking nonsense with you? He immediately unleashed his ultimate move.
"That means there's still a chance of survival?"
The Golden Wyrm King said.
"Yes, there's a chance of survival."
Lu Changsheng nodded.
After walking for a long time, the Peacock King's voice sounded.
"We've been moving forward, and the surroundings are hazy. I don't know if we're trapped or not. I used the Five-colored Immortal Light to explore, and there's no trace of an array here. But theoretically, we should be at the end."
The Peacock King's voice made everyone confused.
Indeed, after walking for such a long time, they should be able to see something, but the scenery around them didn't change at all.
If it was a trapping array, they couldn't sense any aura of an array.
Lu Changsheng stopped and carefully sensed. The Peacock King was right, there were no traces of an array here.
As an immortal array master, if there was an array here, he would definitely be able to sense it.
So, in other words!
There's no array here.
No.
There must be an array here.
Lu Changsheng closed his eyes. In an instant, 72 array spirit runes revolved around Lu Changsheng's head and deduced a mountain and river map.
Then, Lu Changsheng opened his eyes and carefully looked at the mountain and river map.
After a while.
Suddenly, his expression changed.
"I get it, this is … the Connate array."
Lu Changsheng said.
That's right, the Connate array.
"Connate array? What does that mean? "
Someone asked.
However, Lu Changsheng didn't answer and only said slowly, "Let's count off first!"
Everyone was stunned, but they still counted off.
Ye Rujin didn't say much and immediately said, "One!"
Then, it was Liu Ruyan's turn.
Eleven!
Twelve!
Thirteen!
Thirteen voices sounded.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief that no one was missing.
However, in the next instant, the thirteen people's hair stood on end.
