Chapter 567: Ancestor Lu has achieved Dan in the Immortal City and is the deputy city lord!
The Frontier War is only a little over a year away.
The escalating war between the Yue and Liang kingdoms has affected the cultivation world of the Jiang Kingdom, creating a tense and restless atmosphere.
Now, rogue cultivators who haven’t signed up for the Frontier War find it difficult to enter the Myriad Beast Mountains to hunt demons.
It’s not that the Four Great Immortal Sects forbid it.
Rather, in recent years, the Four Great Immortal Sects have been sending their disciples to lead rogue cultivators into the Myriad Beast Mountains to familiarize themselves with the situation and conduct training exercises.
Various family forces have also been sending Foundation Establishment cultivators with their descendants to gain experience and familiarize themselves with the situation.
This has led to the outer areas of the entire Myriad Beast Mountains being cleared and developed, leaving no place for ordinary rogue cultivators to mix in.
Although countless rogue cultivators are enthusiastically flocking to the Four Great Immortal Sects and Azure Phoenix Immortal City, signing up to participate in the Frontier War, hoping for a future, many still choose to avoid disaster and come to the Great Dream Marsh.
Therefore, in recent years, Great Dream Immortal City has become a bit more prosperous and lively.
On this day, above Mount Yunmeng in the core area of Great Dream Immortal City, the wind suddenly rises, and the colors of the sky and earth change.
The spiritual energy of the surrounding area seems to be drawn by an invisible force, converging towards the cave at the summit, forming a visible vortex of spiritual energy.
“This is, someone is attempting to form their Golden Core!?”
Nearby cultivators sensed the situation and stopped, or walked out of their rooms and caves, looking towards the top of Mount Yunmeng.
“Who is attempting to form their Golden Core?”
“The celestial phenomenon has a majestic aura, filled with colorful light, and there is no mottled demonic energy, so it’s not condensing a false core, but attempting to form a true core!”
Although the three great immortal cities of the Jiang Kingdom can provide a place for people to break through to the Golden Core stage,
there are not many cultivators who break through to the Golden Core stage; it only happens once every few years.
Moreover, apart from some Foundation Establishment cultivators who have no hope for the future and are taking a last-ditch effort, most are condensing false cores.
Therefore, seeing such a Golden Core phenomenon, the cultivators in the immortal city are all talking about it, their eyes revealing longing, awe, envy, and other expressions.
After all, attempting to form a Golden Core is the desire of countless cultivators, their lifelong pursuit!
Whether the breakthrough is successful or not, it is worthy of awe!
Once the breakthrough is successful, even with an inferior flawed core, one can still enjoy five hundred years of life and overlook the vicissitudes of the world.
“This celestial phenomenon has a wind-swept, unstoppable momentum, indicating that this person’s foundation is solid and extraordinary!”
“When did such a cultivator come to the Great Dream Marsh?”
There are many powerful cultivators in the immortal city.
Through this celestial phenomenon, they immediately saw a few different implications.
As time went on, the celestial phenomenon grew larger and larger.
Cultivators in the inner city and even the outer city could see it, looking towards Mount Yunmeng, their eyes filled with envy, respect, admiration, longing, and other expressions.
“Is this Dad forming his Golden Core?”
In a small courtyard, Lu Wangshu, dressed in a pink and white dress, looked at the Golden Core phenomenon, then curled her lips, showing no interest.
After all, her own father had already broken through to the Golden Core stage long ago.
Moreover, as her cultivation improved and she gained more understanding of the cultivation world, she had many guesses about her father.
In his thirties, he was able to kill a Golden Core cultivator and take her to travel through the Nine Heavens Astral Winds. Maybe he had already formed his Golden Core at that time, but he lied to her.
“Hmph, that hateful Dad actually even deceives his obedient, gentle, intelligent, clever, knowledgeable, considerate, and understanding precious daughter!”
Lu Wangshu wrinkled her nose, but her clear and bright eyes also showed a few ripples like the first rays of dawn.
She remembered that her mother had said years ago that only when both of them broke through to the Golden Core stage would they obtain their ‘ancestor’s’ permission to make their relationship public.
Not long ago, her mother broke through to the Golden Core stage, and now her father is ‘breaking through to the Golden Core stage’ at the first opportunity.
The Golden Core phenomenon above Mount Yunmeng climbed rapidly.
In just ten days, the spiritual energy vortex expanded to seven or eight miles, causing countless people to be shocked.
“According to ancient records, a Golden Core phenomenon with a range of more than five miles is a mid-grade true core. Is this person trying to form a fourth-grade true core!?”
“This person came to Great Dream Immortal City to form their Golden Core, indicating that they are not a disciple of an immortal sect, most likely a clan cultivator or a rogue cultivator, but where does a rogue cultivator get such extraordinary foundation!?”
“Could this be the sign of a chaotic world coming, with heroes rising from all directions!”
“The Frontier War and the war between the Liang and Yue kingdoms all foreshadow the arrival of a great era. If you don’t fight at this time, you may not have a chance in the future!”
The Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators of Great Dream Immortal City were all paying attention to this scene, their hearts filled with shock, doubt, and envy.
You must know that a fourth-grade true core is already something that countless people can only dream of!
An ordinary rogue cultivator or clan cultivator being able to break through to the Golden Core stage is already better than ninety-nine percent of cultivators, a true genius!
To condense a mid-grade true core, one must have a deep foundation and great opportunities!
And this Golden Core phenomenon is still continuing to climb, seemingly heading towards forming a high-grade Golden Core.
However, the spiritual energy vortex became somewhat strained after reaching a range of nine miles, even unstable, fluctuating and surging, causing many people’s emotions to rise and fall with it.
“Buzz!”
At this moment, the spiritual energy vortex suddenly trembled, as if exhausted, receding like a tide.
It directly retreated from around nine miles to around six or seven miles before barely stabilizing, and then it was difficult to advance even half an inch, only able to maintain fluctuations.
“Boom!”
After a long time, the huge spiritual energy vortex above Mount Yunmeng suddenly solidified, and then slowly dissipated amidst the tidal wave of spiritual energy, with bursts of colorful light spreading!
“It’s done!”
“The spiritual energy vortex was more than six miles, so it should be a fifth-grade true core.”
“It’s hard to say. His spiritual energy vortex reached a maximum of nine miles at the time, so maybe it’s a fourth-grade true core.”
“What a pity, this person’s foundation is solid, and the early stage was unstoppable, but unfortunately, he lacked stamina and couldn’t stabilize it.”
“Forming a core, he really broke through to the Golden Core stage!”
All the onlookers were shocked and discussed it.
Especially the Foundation Establishment and False Core cultivators at the foot of Mount Yunmeng, feeling the immense Golden Core-level spiritual pressure spreading, their eyes filled with envy, jealousy, and surging emotions.
At the same time, many cultivators came to the outside of Lu Changsheng’s cave where he was forming his Golden Core, thinking of paying their respects at the first opportunity, to see who exactly had broken through to the Golden Core stage and whether they could form a good relationship.
A month later.
“Boom!”
The cave door opened with a bang, and a man and a woman walked out from inside.
The man had a handsome and refined face, a tall and slender figure, wearing a green robe, his temperament ethereal and otherworldly, like an immortal descending to earth, making people admire him.
The woman had a beautiful face, with delicate eyebrows and a graceful figure, and her elegant and tall figure was wrapped in a snow-white palace dress, clear and gentle, dignified and beautiful.
“Hmm, why are there two people?”
“Could it be that the celestial phenomenon before was two people forming their Golden Core?”
“No, this woman doesn’t have any Golden Core aura, she’s a Foundation Establishment cultivator!”
“So handsome, I didn’t expect this Golden Core senior to be so young and handsome!”
The cultivators outside the cave were all surprised.
However, the next moment, they immediately guessed that the two were dual cultivation partners.
In the cultivation world, there are many secret methods for breaking through to the Golden Core stage.
Among them, dual cultivation partners helping in cultivation is a relatively common method.
“Congratulations, Senior, on breaking through to the Golden Core stage!”
“Congratulations, Senior, on successfully forming your core, with a promising future and hope for longevity!”
“Congratulations, True Person, on achieving the Golden Core path!”
These people’s cultivation levels were at least in the mid or late stages of Foundation Establishment, and there were even several False Core cultivators.
After all, ordinary cultivators are not qualified to come here.
Looking at so many people showing respectful and envious expressions, congratulating him, and calling him ‘True Person,’ Lu Changsheng felt quite emotional.
From now on, he, Lu, can be considered to have truly entered the ranks of high-level cultivators in the Jiang Kingdom.
Lu Miaoge also felt happy for her husband seeing this scene.
The cautious and discreet little cultivator of the past has now become a Golden Core True Person who is unattainable in the eyes of the world, a big shot!
“Congratulations, Daddy, on breaking through to the Golden Core stage!”
At this moment, Lu Wangshu, dressed in a pink and white dress, with a bright and moving appearance, stepped forward and congratulated her father with a smile.
“Good!”
Lu Changsheng nodded with a smile, gently raising his palm, and an invisible magical force wrapped her to his side, forming a warm family of three.
Then he looked at the cultivators in the field and said: “Thank you all for your congratulations. I am Lu Changsheng from Azure Lake Mountain. Today, I have attained the Golden Core path. In half a year, Azure Lake Mountain will hold a Golden Core ceremony and establish a Golden Core family. You are all welcome to come to Azure Lake Mountain as guests to observe the ceremony.”
Since he chose to reveal his Golden Core cultivation, Lu Changsheng would naturally not hide the matter of the Golden Core ceremony and the Golden Core family.
He directly and generously revealed his identity information.
He will also quickly spread the news of his breakthrough to the Golden Core stage to the entire cultivation world of the Jiang Kingdom through the rogue cultivators and major forces of Great Dream Immortal City!
“What, Lu Changsheng from Azure Lake Mountain!”
“This person is actually Lu Changsheng, the ancestor of the Lu family of Azure Lake Mountain!”
“It’s really him!”
“How is this possible!”
Some of the cultivators in the field were confused, some were surprised, suspicious, and some were horrified and couldn’t believe it.
Just now, some cultivators from the Azure Cloud Territory saw Lu Changsheng’s appearance and were shocked.
They just couldn’t believe that this Golden Core True Person was Lu Changsheng, thinking that they just looked alike, and it was a disguise.
At this time, hearing Lu Changsheng’s words, they were immediately shocked.
Some people who had only heard of Azure Lake Mountain and Lu Changsheng’s reputation were also extremely shocked.
After all, Azure Lake Mountain has only risen for a few decades, and the ancestor Lu Changsheng is only a hundred years old.
How could he suddenly form his Golden Core, and even condense a mid-grade true core!
However, despite the shock, the cultivators in the field had all seen great storms and waves, and immediately said politely: “Thank you, True Person Lu, of course, of course!”
“This old woman congratulates True Person Lu on stepping into the Golden Core path. My Azure Cloud Sect is honored to have you.”
At this time, an old woman with a wrinkled face stepped forward to congratulate him.
She is a False Core True Person of the Azure Cloud Sect.
As a family under the rule of Azure Cloud, now that Lu Changsheng has broken through to the Golden Core stage, she should congratulate him.
However, in her words, her cloudy eyes secretly sized up Lu Changsheng in front of her.
“Greetings, True Person Chiyan.”
Lu Changsheng had seen this old woman before.
It was True Person Chiyan who was in charge of the Azure Cloud Spirit Ship when he took the spirit ship to Nine Heavens Immortal City.
Decades have passed, and the other party has aged a lot, and it is estimated that her lifespan is not long, so she is retiring in the Great Dream Marsh.
Before Lu Changsheng could elaborate, a streak of purple light flew from the White Jade Palace in the City Lord’s mansion, highlighting a noble and elegant woman in a light purple dress.
“Greetings, Lord City Lord!”
“Greetings, Lord City Lord!”
The latest novels are first published on 6_9_shu_ba!
The law enforcement and patrolling cultivators of Great Dream Immortal City immediately bowed and saluted upon seeing this figure.
“Real Person Lu, Madam Lu, would you please come to the City Lord’s mansion for a talk?”
Hong Lian, bathed in flowing purple light, beautiful and hazy, exuded a Core Formation spiritual pressure as she spoke to Lu Changsheng, her voice dignified and elegant.
“That is my wish.”
Lu Changsheng nodded with a smile, signaling his daughter to return first, and then led Lu Miaoge and Real Person Yunmeng into the City Lord’s mansion.
As Lu Changsheng and Real Person Yunmeng left, his identity, background, and deeds were immediately revealed, setting off a wave of discussion.
“Hiss, Core Formation before the age of one hundred!? Having been a live-in son-in-law in his early years, the rise of this Real Person Lu is truly legendary!?”
“So, Lu Ping’an of Bihu Mountain, who surpassed Shangguan Jiuyang of the Divine Blade Shangguan family in his early years, is the son of this person. Unexpectedly, both father and son are so amazingly talented!”
“It is rumored that the eldest son of the Lu family has the qualifications for Core Formation. If he breaks through to Core Formation, wouldn’t that mean father and son both achieve Core Formation!?”
“Isn’t this Old Ancestor Lu only at the late stage of Foundation Establishment? How did he break through to Core Formation!?”
“This Real Person Lu is not even a hundred years old, why is he in such a hurry to break through to Core Formation? Judging from his Core Formation celestial phenomena, his foundation is strong and solid. If he accumulates for a few more decades, he might have a chance to reach Half-Step Golden Core!”
“What, this Real Person Lu likes women and having children?”
The cultivators in the field were discussing, and some immediately sent messages to their families.
After all, the emergence of a Core Formation Real Person, especially a clan cultivator, in the Jiang Country cultivation world is a major event.
Especially the family forces in the Qingyun region, after hearing this news, their expressions became solemn.
“What, my dad has become a Core Formation Real Person!?”
“The Core Formation celestial phenomena not long ago were my father breaking through to Core Formation!?”
In recent years, in addition to Lu Qingsong, Lu Qingyan, Lu Wangshu, and others, some Lu family disciples have also come to Great Dream Marsh and Great Dream Immortal City.
At this time, hearing the rumors in the Immortal City, that the Real Person who broke through to Core Formation not long ago was Lu Changsheng, the Old Ancestor of the Lu family in Bihu Mountain, these Lu family disciples were dumbfounded and at a loss.
After all, this was too sudden and too unprepared for.
However, in the next moment, all of them were extremely pleasantly surprised.
Their father had broken through to Core Formation, their Lu family of Bihu Mountain would be called a noble family, and their status would also rise!
Several days later.
While Great Dream Immortal City was still discussing the breakthrough of Old Ancestor Lu of Bihu Mountain, the City Lord’s mansion announced a bombshell message.
From today onwards, Old Ancestor Lu Changsheng of the Lu family will be the Deputy City Lord of Great Dream Immortal City!
“What, Real Person Lu has become the Deputy City Lord of Great Dream Immortal City!”
“I heard that Real Person Lu was previously a guest elder of the Immortal City, so he obtained a cave dwelling to break through to Core Formation.”
“Not only that, I heard that Real Person Lu also obtained a top-grade Core Formation spiritual object subsidized by the City Lord’s mansion when he was breaking through to Core Formation!”
“Hiss, there’s such a secret?”
“Previously, Old Ancestor Lu broke through together with his wife, Lu Miaoge. It is rumored that the two of them practice dual cultivation techniques, and the two City Lords also practice dual cultivation techniques. Maybe it has something to do with this!”
“The City Lord’s mansion has been vigorously recruiting talisman masters in recent years, and this Real Person Lu has an extremely high talent in talisman arts. He was a third-order talisman master during the Foundation Establishment stage, and now that he has broken through to Core Formation, he may have a chance to become a fourth-order talisman master!”
“We don’t even have a fourth-order talisman master in the Jiang Country cultivation world.”
“Bihu Mountain is a family force under the rule of Qingyun, isn’t this Real Person Lu afraid of displeasing the Qingyun Sect by joining Great Dream Immortal City?”
The Immortal City was discussing the news of Lu Changsheng becoming the Deputy City Lord.
However, everyone’s focus was on the gossip between Lu Changsheng and the City Lord’s mansion.
They didn’t care about him becoming the Deputy City Lord.
After all, a Core Formation Real Person is a guest of honor in any force.
Even if he goes to the Four Great Immortal Sects, he can serve as an offering elder!
Moreover, the news of the change of ownership of Great Dream Immortal City has already been accepted by all major forces except for the bottom-level loose cultivators.
They guessed that the two new City Lords were recruiting other new forces to balance the management of the Immortal City and reshuffle the cards.
Great Dream Immortal City, core area.
At this time, many female cultivators were squatting here.
Some wore elegant dresses, pure and refined; some wore simple clothes, ethereal and fresh;
Some had delicate eyebrows, dignified and beautiful; some were flamboyant and charming;
Some had full curves, with a protruding chest and upturned buttocks, full of mature woman’s charm.
These female cultivators had all heard that Real Person Lu liked women and having children, so they came here to try their luck.
To see if they could win the favor of this Real Person Lu who had just broken through to Core Formation.
After all, Real Person Lu broke through to Core Formation before the age of one hundred. He has an extraordinary talent, and his appearance is as handsome as jade, and he is outstanding and refined.
Such a talented and handsome man is simply the perfect Dao companion in their hearts!
As for being a married man, having many wives and concubines, and having children and grandchildren, these female cultivators didn’t care at all.
After all, isn’t it normal for a great man like Old Ancestor Lu, a Core Formation Real Person, to have many wives and concubines?
Having many wives and concubines shows that he is loving and responsible!
Moreover, being able to take care of so many wives and concubines is enough to show that Old Ancestor Lu has excellent character and is worthy of entrusting!
As for having many children and descendants, doesn’t this further show that Old Ancestor Lu is in good health?
If you are in poor health, can you favor so many wives and concubines and give birth to so many descendants?
Who doesn’t want to have a strong Dao companion!
Moreover, Old Ancestor Lu has produced talented children such as Lu Ping’an, Lu Qingshan, Lu Wangshu, and Lu Chensha, which is even more favored by female cultivators.
Thinking that they can give birth to such children, maybe they can also become noble through their children!
It is precisely because of this that these female cultivators feel more and more that Old Ancestor Lu is a perfect Dao companion and come here to squat.
Some female cultivators even concealed it from their Dao companions and husbands and came here to have an encounter with Old Ancestor Lu.
However, Old Ancestor Lu was not aware of this.
Now that he has broken through to Core Formation in Great Dream Immortal City, he is also preparing to return to Bihu Mountain to prepare for the Core Formation Ceremony and go to the Qingyun Sect to propose marriage.
However, before going back, he will naturally put the Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale into Great Dream Marsh first.
This will also add a layer of protection to the Immortal City.
“Swoosh!”
A rainbow light came to the depths of the boundless, gray fog-filled Great Dream Marsh.
Lu Changsheng saw that there were no more cultivator islands, and immediately opened the system space, looked at the Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale inside, and silently said: “Extract!”
“Roar!!!!”
Immediately, a sky-covering and earth-shattering dark light burst out, filled with a terrifying power.
A giant whale with a huge body, as long as a hundred feet, whose body seemed to be a moving island, appeared.
Its whole body was dark, and its skin was covered with a layer of cold scales like extraterrestrial black iron. Several rows of towering and sharp dark fin blades stood on its back, like a row of sharp sword mountains, reflecting mysterious and dark terrifying ripples under the mist and azure blue sea surface.
On the round forehead of the Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale, there was a single horn curved like a hook, sharp and intimidating. Its eyes were like black holes, giving people a tremor from the depths of their souls when looking directly at them.
The wide giant mouth was full of cold and sharp teeth like knives, each of which was several feet long, flashing a cold light, like a chaotic abyss of knives.
“Boom!”
This Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale fell into the water, and the calm sea surface suddenly set off thousands of layers of huge waves.
The dark fin blades on its back, the dark single horn on its forehead, and the wide and powerful tail fins can easily tear the ocean.
“What a Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale!”
Lu Changsheng looked at the behemoth in front of him, his expression delighted, and praised.
Except for its size, the appearance and aura of this Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale are no worse than the previous Deep Sea Demon Whale King!
Even its appearance is more intimidating!
But this is also normal.
That Deep Sea Demon Whale King was just an ordinary Heaven-Rank bloodline.
And this Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale belongs to the top-grade Heaven-Rank bloodline!
It is only one step away from being promoted to a True Spirit-level bloodline!
According to the system introduction, if it can obtain a treasure with the blood of a True Dragon, such as the demon core of a fourth-order Flood Dragon, this Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale has a chance to be promoted to a True Spirit-level bloodline—the Rifting Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale!
“Tsk, if I draw a dragon descendant reward similar to the Heavenly Phoenix True Feather, wouldn’t this Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale be able to directly advance to the Rifting Sea Mysterious Dragon Whale and quickly break through to the fourth order?”
Lu Changsheng thought of the Great Wilderness Dragon Spine on his son Lu Ping’an.
Although this is a rare treasure, the raw material is a dragon spine!
If this dragon spine is refined by the Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale, it can also obtain great benefits!
However, the Great Wilderness Dragon Spine has already been refined by his son, so Lu Changsheng didn’t care too much. He gave the information map of Great Dream Marsh to the Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale, indicating that it can go to the sea eye in the deep sea to take a look.
If the sea eye is occupied by other demon kings, fight if you can, and wait for yourself to come back when you are busy if you can’t win.
If there are cultivators or demon kings from the Star Sea crossing over, notify yourself as soon as possible.
Then, don’t slaughter the demon kings in Great Dream Marsh at will. You can collect the treasures of heaven and earth when you see them, but forget about it if they are not mature.
In the early years, I came to hunt demon kings to make money.
But now that Great Dream Marsh has become my own backyard, Lu Changsheng will naturally not do things that drain the pond to get all the fish.
After instructing, Lu Changsheng gave it a Sun and Moon Plate.
Under normal circumstances, he can’t directly communicate with the Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale from a long distance.
But with the Sun and Moon Plate, this problem is directly solved.
In the future, you can also use the Sun, Moon, and Two Instruments Mysterious Light Mirror to watch the Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale explore the seabed.
After explaining to the Rifting Sea Mysterious Whale, Lu Changsheng’s Dust Miasma Banner appeared in his hand, and he returned directly to Great Dream Immortal City.
Then, he took his wife Lu Miaoge and daughter Lu Wangshu back to Bihu Mountain.
