1 year later, in a tavern filled with cultivators of all origins, the weakest of them in the Innate Realm, Lu Sheng sat with a couple of won by his side, wearing a bamboo hat covering his face which made him seem more like a jianghu Martial Artist than an Immortal Cultivator.
At this mont, one of the won by his side grabbed his arm and looked at him with an angry expression.
"How long are we going to stay here? It’s been such a long ti!"
Lu Sheng looked at her warmly before speaking, "Just wait a while longer. My work is almost about to be done, then we can go see your family."
Many other cultivators looked at Lu Sheng with jealousy in their eyes which couldn’t be hidden.
It was not that it was difficult for cultivators to get partners or Dao Companions, but the won besides Lu Sheng were far too beautiful!
Lu Sheng didn’t even look half as good!
All of the won seed prestigious figures while Lu Sheng, dressed like a mortal Martial Artist, clearly caused a wave of envy to wash over the other male cultivators present in the tavern.
This caused his group to beco the center of attention.
Of course, no one would find trouble with him unless the other party was too arrogant.
Any normal cultivator who had reached the Innate Realm was soone who knew the importance of life in the cultivation world.
At this point, a tall man dressed in ordinary robes but exuding an extraordinary pressure entered the tavern, directly coming up to Lu Sheng and the others.
He sat down without even introducing himself, and Lu Sheng didn’t say anything to him either.
Everyone in the tavern guessed that they had either talked about eting previously or were communicating through their Divine Sense.
After all, no Immortal Cultivator discussed private and important matters openly. They were all discussed through Divine Sense as it could not be detected.
"Grandmaster has lost his life in the battle against the Master of Eternal Peak."
The tall man sent a voice transmission to Lu Sheng, causing the latter’s hand to subtly tremble.
"Does this an that the Master of Eternal Peak is a peak existence among Immortal Ascension Realm mighty figures of the older generation?"
He also sent the voice transmission back to the tall man, his heart in turmoil.
Senior brother Pei’s father and a Great Elder of a major faction actually lost...
He couldn’t believe these words as he recited them inwardly again and again, however, he did not panic. He was just surprised by this sudden, unexpected outco.
"Yes, at the very least, he is already a top mighty figure among the Immortal Ascension Realm cultivators of the past generation.
There are even speculations by the Great Yang Venerable that he has surpassed the Immortal Ascension Realm and reached the unspeakable realm belonging to the peak of the world, becoming one of the most powerful existences in not just the Second Great Mortal World, but the entire the Lower Realm."
As the tall man sent this voice transmission, he had a complicated look on his face.
Lu Sheng could no longer remain calm and scread inwardly.
There’s no way...isn’t ancestor also an existence of the unspeakable realm!?
Before he could guess further, a surprised voice sounded in his mind.
"Impossible! Just before getting sealed, I had deduced that no existence of the unspeakable realm will be born for the next 200,000 years! Could the Master of Eternal Peak really be an existence who defies fate and has reincarnated from the Upper Realm!?"
This was none other than Lu Feng, the ancestor of Lu Sheng and a forr top mighty figure of the Hidden Lu Immortal Family.
Hearing the words of his ancestor, Lu Sheng was finally moved and a little afraid in his heart.
Before, he had gotten through all the ordeals in his life because of Lu Feng, but now, even his ancestor may possibly not be able to save him since Lu Qingfeng also had an existence at the sa level as his ancestor backing him up.
Did I do a mistake by provoking Lu Qingfeng?
He couldn’t help but think, however, he didn’t get a reply from Lu Feng, who was busy sorting out his own thoughts.
At this mont, the tall man once again sent him a voice transmission.
"This fact has not yet been revealed to the outside world. It will be shortly afterwards revealed that Grandmaster severed ties with the Grand Sun Sect and went missing since then, his whereabouts unknown. No one will question it because of the Great Yang Venerable. You should also get out of the Eastern Continent soon, lest you get involved in these affairs.
This is a genuine advice that Grandmaster told my master to give you."
As soon as he heard these words, Lu Sheng fell silent.
I need to stay away from Lu Qingfeng...at least for now.
Thinking of this, he sent a final voice transmission to the tall man.
"I appreciate your concern, senior. I’ll do as you say. I hope we et again at so point in the future."
The tall man nodded slightly and disappeared from the spot, startling everyone into looking at Lu Sheng with fear.
They all knew that they couldn’t provoke Lu Sheng now, specially since he had connections with such a powerful expert.
Ignoring all the gazes upon himself, he stood up and the won around him followed suit.
Soon, they left the tavern after giving the owner so High-Grade Spirit Stones.
On a small flying ship no bigger than a hundred feet, Lu Sheng looked towards the Grand Sun Sect with a deep gaze and then towards the State of Feng where he originally ca from, his gaze turning unnatural.
Lu Qingfeng...let’s see how long you can hide under the Eternal Peak.
...
anwhile, State of Feng.
Lu Qingfeng flew across the sky, shooting down arrows of flas using the Mystical Fla Bow as he slew countless demonic cultivators and Demons.
In the recent years of the war, more and more Demons had started to appear, making the higher ups of the righteous path worried for whatever was causing this.
On the other hand, the cultivators who were actively participating in the war did not care about anything and just slew whoever ca in their way, except for their own allies, of course.
Lu Qingfeng was already a respectable figure throughout the entire State of Feng as a representative of the Eternal Peak and great young general leading thousands of powerful cultivators through the battlefield.
His reputation could be said to be not inferior than any notable Nascent Soul Realm expert in the State of Feng.
It was simply because his battle achievents were too great for him to be ignored.
He had never fled any battlefield!
And of course, he had never lost either.
The aning of a defeat was equivalent to death in the cultivation world, specially in a war such as the Righteous-Demonic War.
Thus, he gained more and more followers, commanding more than a thousand Golden Core Realm cultivators from the Qingyun Region alone, making him a force to be reckoned with.
It was not just that he had a commanding presence and he took charge in the battles, but also because he was practically invincible under the Void Refinent Realm, hailed as a supre genius of the Qingyun Region.
Along with him were other geniuses of the State of Feng, including Lin Qiyuan of the Chuyan Lin Family and Mo Yuxin of the Qingyun Sword Sect.
All of them led countless battles and never returned in defeat, making their backings and the Eternal Peak even more formidable in the eyes of outsiders.
At this mont, in a cultivation city being used as a base of the righteous, Lu Qingfeng floated in the air and looked towards the east, squinting his eyes.
He had an air of authority around him, his powerful aura suppressing even the surrounding air.
Behind him, a dark clothed figure kneeled in the air as they communicated through their Divine Sense, sending voice transmissions to eachother.
"The East Coast is the place where most of the Demons and demonic cultivators have been gathering. To go there, we have to breakthrough an array of opponents which will put us in a disadvantageous situation considering our insufficient strength and manpower consisting of only Golden Core Realm cultivators and few Void Refinent Realm individuals at most.
The sacrifices will not be worth it at all. Is it really necessary?"
Lu Qingfeng sent the voice transmission to the black clothed man, who had a troubled expression on his face.
"Great General Lu, we really cannot do anything about it as of now. You were appointed as a Great General by the Demon Subjugation Heavenly Alliance and have to follow their arrangents. However, you don’t have to worry too much. Soon enough, many great cultivators from the alliance and various powers will be arriving as reinforcents, including those in the Nascent Soul Realm.
It’s only a matter of ti before the Tribulation Transcendence Realm joins the battle. At that ti, our job will be considered over."
