Lu Changsheng received a prompt from the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator that Dugu Aotian had actually killed Xuan Yang Old Ancestor and Crazy Demon Ancestor, two Half-Step Great Luo Golden Immortals. Discover exclusive tales on empire
This disciple is so fierce?
"One hundred and fifty million merits."
Thanks to the eight million merits returned by Dugu Aotian, the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda accumulated one hundred and fifty million merits, and the twenty-second layer of the pagoda condensed into being.
The twenty-second layer of the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, is in quality between a lower and a middle-grade Holy Artifact, slightly inferior to a middle-grade Holy Artifact.
From the twenty-second golden layer to the twenty-third golden layer, it requires three hundred million merits, doubling directly.
"Fortunately, I have ten disciples helping me collect merits; otherwise, just accumulating so many merits would take a lot of effort."
Lu Changsheng estimated that the quality of the twenty-third golden layer should surpass that of a middle-grade Holy Artifact.
"There isn't much time left before the thirty-thousand-year covenant, and solely relying on disciples won't amass three hundred million merits. It seems I also need to leave the mountain to collect some merits myself. Before confronting the King of Chaos, I'll cultivate the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda to the twenty-third layer, and then comprehend the sixth layer of sword intent in the 'Sword Scripture of the Divine King'."
Lu Changsheng estimated that his realm was not as high as that of the King of Chaos, so he could only make up the difference through magical artifacts and cultivation techniques.
Lu Changsheng sent a message to Daoist Yuxuan, "Senior, are there any early-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal Demon Chiefs near the Zhengsheng Sect?"
After listening, Daoist Yuxuan was shocked, "Kid, what are you planning to do?"
"It's nothing, just collecting some merits."
"Our Zhengsheng Sect is a powerful Immortal Sect, if there were any Demon Chiefs at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level nearby, they would have been subdued long ago. However, there is a Black Mountain Old Ancestor in Black Cloud Cave, sixty-thousand li away from our Zhengsheng Sect. He enslaves billions of beings, with tens of thousands of Heretic Cultivators serving him. But this person has some backing, so our Zhengsheng Sect does not interfere with him. As long as he doesn't reach out to the territories of our Zhengsheng Sect, we live in peace. Kid, you aren't planning to strike at him, are you? Kid?"
Daoist Yuxuan found that Lu Changsheng had already left Zhengsheng Sect.
It turned out that Lu Changsheng really did plan to make a move on a Great Demon Head of the Great Luo Golden Immortal level.
These Great Demon Heads who brazenly enslaved living beings usually had support behind them, otherwise, they wouldn't be so presumptuous.
However, Lu Changsheng, who already had plenty of enemies, didn't care about one more. What was urgent was to increase the levels of the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Sixty-thousand li away from Zhengsheng Sect, Black Cloud Cave was a place where skulls formed ridges, bones formed forests, Demon Sects' Elders and disciples came and went, and Loose Practitioners dared not to set foot in Black Cloud Cave.
Black Mountain Old Ancestor, at the third layer of Great Luo Golden Immortal and backed by powerful patrons, was not someone commonplace Loose Cultivators could contend with. Immortal Sects as powerful as Zhengsheng Sect refrained from provoking Black Mountain Old Ancestor for fear of his supporters, which allowed him to act without restraint.
Lu Changsheng appeared in the sky above Black Cloud Cave, still pinching a Spatial Talisman between his fingers.
For Lu Changsheng, time was the most precious thing; as for Spatial Talismans, Lu Changsheng could grab a handful with ease, so he did not mind using the precious Spatial Talismans to travel.
A stench wafted over, causing Lu Changsheng to frown.
The scene at Black Cloud Cave was horrifying. Human hair had become felt patches, human skin and flesh decayed into dust. Human tendons wrapped around trees, drying up and shining like silver.
The Heretic Cultivators of Black Cloud Cave slaughtered and enslaved living beings at will, refining their essence to strengthen their own powers.
They were raising living beings like cattle.
Lu Changsheng extended his hand and grabbed, causing the Zixiao Immortal Sword to appear out of thin air in his hand.
Facing the Heretic Cultivators below in Black Cloud Cave, Lu Changsheng did not hold back, swinging the Zixiao Immortal Sword downward, sending a myriad of Hongmeng Purple Light Sword Qi slashing through the air!
Only then did the Heretic Cultivators in Black Cloud Cave notice the glaring purple Sword Qi descending; in their eyes, this Sword Qi transformed from a thin line into a wave!
It seemed far away, but the Sword Qi arrived in an instant.
"Ah!"
Hundreds of Heretic Cultivators could not react in time and were annihilated in the Hongmeng Purple Light Sword Qi.
Boom!
The mountain range that housed Black Cloud Cave was cleaved in two by the Zixiao Immortal Sword!
Dust and stones flew, and even the Demonic Qi shrouding the Black Cloud Cave was dispersed by the Zixiao Immortal Sword.
The remaining Heretic Cultivators, who had survived, looked in horror at the figure suspended above Black Cloud Cave. He was like a Sword Saint, cleaving apart Black Cloud Cave's Cave Heaven Blessed Land with a single sword.
Lu Changsheng sent down two more sword strikes, one vertical and one horizontal, annihilating hundreds to thousands of Heretic Cultivators.
Lu Changsheng could see the merits accumulated by the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda skyrocketing.
The Heretic Cultivators of Black Cloud Cave were all extremely vicious criminals; without Black Mountain Old Ancestor's protection, these Heretic Cultivators would have been eradicated by the various Immortal Sects long ago.
"Who dares provoke Black Mountain Old Ancestor!"
A mass of Demonic Qi burst out from Black Cloud Cave, confronting Lu Changsheng in the air.
Black Mountain Old Ancestor was furious. Someone had dared to attack his sect, and even destroyed his dwelling with a sword.
Apart from Black Mountain Old Ancestor, other Demon Sect Elders were also encircling.
They saw that there was only Lu Changsheng, going from initial fear to laughter, "So it's just one person daring to make trouble in our Black Cloud Cave."
"Even Zhengsheng Sect doesn't dare to target our Black Cloud Cave. What kind of thing are you?"
"Having offended the Ancestor, you won't be able to escape."
Black Mountain Old Ancestor, with a vicious look, stared at Lu Changsheng. Although he didn't know why Lu Changsheng attacked Black Cloud Cave, he himself ascended from a small world and had roamed the Immortal Realm for many years. With broad knowledge, he realized that since Lu Changsheng dared to come to Black Cloud Cave alone, his strength must be considerable. "Brat, what is your background? And why are you attacking my Black Cloud Cave?"
