Chapter 1344 Lu Yun Breaks Through the Tribulation
Chapter 1344 Lu Yun Breaks Through the Tribulation
In the following days, Xu Changshou relaxed. Having just broken through to the Great Perfection of Mahayana, he was in no hurry to cultivate and planned to rest for a while longer.
In the past few days, Xu Xiangzu has often come here to drink tea with Xu Changshou during his spare time from cultivation.
Xu Xiangzu came again that day.
"Grandpa Ancestor, a big piece of news has come from Greedy Wolf Peak."
"What big news?"
"Lu Yun, a disciple of Bai Zu, has broken through to the Tribulation Transcending Realm."
"What? Lu Yun has broken through to the Tribulation Transcendence stage?" Xu Changshou was shocked.
By all accounts, Lu Yun and he are the same age, maybe a little younger, but not by more than a few hundred years.
At this moment, he had just broken through to the Great Perfection of Mahayana, while Lu Yun had broken through to the Tribulation Transcending Realm.
This cultivation speed is a whole minor realm faster than his.
Xu Changshou estimated that it would take him at least eight or nine thousand years to break through to the Tribulation Transcending Realm, which meant that Lu Yun's cultivation speed was eight or nine thousand years faster than his.
As expected of a tenfold body, its cultivation speed is terrifying.
Xu Xiangzu took a sip of tea and said, "Grandpa, I heard that Lu Yun is also from our Canghai Sect. Do you know him?"
"Ok!"
Xu Changshou nodded slightly: "We know each other. We met when we were at the Nascent Soul stage."
Xu Xiangzu laughed and said, "Grandpa Ancestor, a year from now, Ancestor Bai will personally hold an ascension ceremony for Lu Yun. Shall we go and attend?"
The "Ceremony of Ascension to Immortality" that Xu Xiangzu mentioned is, in essence, the Ceremony of Attaining Dao.
The Tribulation Crossing is the final stage for cultivators in this world. Breaking through the Tribulation Crossing will result in the formation of immortal bones. Therefore, this ceremony of attaining enlightenment is called the Immortal Ascension Ceremony.
Xu Changshou smiled and said, "Of course we should attend Lu Yun's ascension ceremony."
……
Time flies, and two or three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, an uninvited guest arrived at Hua San Niang's Taoist temple.
The visitor was an elderly man in the late Mahayana stage, with white hair and beard, and a face full of wrinkles.
This person is none other than Venerable Wang Yuan.
"Junior Sister Hua, please come out and meet us!"
The old man arrived at the entrance of Hua San Niang's Taoist temple, smiled, and clasped his hands in greeting.
After he finished speaking, there was complete silence inside, and Hua San Niang did not respond.
Seeing that Hua San Niang didn't respond, he said, "Junior Sister Hua, I know you're inside. Quickly open the formation, or don't blame me for forcing my way in!"
Hua San Niang said, "Senior Brother Wang, I am but a common woman, and I do not think I am worthy of you. You should leave!"
"Hahaha! Junior Sister Hua, I told you I'd come to propose marriage today, so just accept my offer. Quickly open the formation, or don't blame me for being impolite," Venerable Wang Yuan threatened with a loud laugh.
"Don't even think about it, Senior Brother Wang. Just give up on that idea. I will not form a Dao bond with you."
"That's not up to you."
Venerable Wang Yuan smiled slyly, patted his storage bag, and took out an array plate.
With a casual toss, the array plate landed above Hua San Niang's dojo. Then, Venerable Wang Yuan cast several spells, and endless white light descended, suddenly paralyzing Hua San Niang's protective array.
Venerable Wang Yuan leaped into Hua San Niang's dojo.
"How...how did you get my array key?"
Hua San Niang walked out with a deathly pale face. She never expected that Venerable Wang Yuan would actually obtain her array key.
This item is in the hands of the higher-ups at Jumen Peak. The fact that Venerable Wang Yuan was able to obtain it means that he has already received authorization from the higher-ups at Jumen Peak.
Even if he were to forcibly defile himself now, the higher-ups of Jumen Peak would not stand up for him.
Perhaps in the eyes of the higher-ups at Jumen Peak, Venerable Wang Yuan's cultivation was higher than that of Hua San Niang, and it was an honor for the latter that he and Hua San Niang formed a Dao bond.
"Come with me!"
Venerable Wang Yuan looked at Hua San Niang with a faint, wicked smile on his lips.
"Impossible. I would rather die than become your Daoist partner."
"Hmph, that's not up to you!"
With a thought, Venerable Wang Yuan instantly locked onto Hua San Niang with his terrifying aura. In front of a cultivator at the late stage of Mahayana cultivation, Hua San Niang had absolutely no chance to resist.
Then, Venerable Wang Yuan waved his sleeve, and an invisible aura froze Hua San Niang.
"Senior Brother Wang, please, please spare me!"
Hua San Niang panicked. Venerable Wang Yuan had used some unknown method to render her unable to move.
"Hmph, Junior Sister Hua, you're mine now!"
A lewd smile appeared on Venerable Wang Yuan's aged face as he walked step by step toward Hua San Niang.
He reached out his aged hand and touched Hua San Niang's snow-white face.
"No! Senior Brother Xu, help me!"
puff!
Suddenly, a terrifying sword aura fell, striking Venerable Wang Yuan's hand with pinpoint accuracy.
His palm exploded on the spot, and blood splattered everywhere.
"Who the hell dares to meddle in my business!"
Venerable Wang Yuan was furious. He looked up and saw a composed young man slowly flying towards him from the distant sea of clouds.
The aura of the Great Vehicle and the Great Perfection emanated from him, which greatly alarmed Venerable Wang Yuan.
"Who...who are you?" Venerable Wang Yuan asked Xu Changshou with a look of panic.
"I am Xu Changshou!"
"Xu Changshou, Venerable Changshou, it's you, you are Venerable Changshou!"
Venerable Wang Yuan was astonished, considering him a celestial being.
Who is Xu Changshou? A thousand years ago, when he was in the late stage of Mahayana cultivation, he was able to defeat Venerable Ge Tian, who was ranked forty-eighth on the Mahayana Golden List.
Now that Xu Changshou has also broken through to the Great Perfection of Mahayana, his combat power will inevitably increase by leaps and bounds.
Wang Yuanzun did not know exactly how strong Xu Changshou was, but many people in the sect predicted that Xu Changshou's strength was definitely enough to enter the top ten of the Mahayana Golden List.
He never expected that this currently popular and influential Venerable Longevity would stand up for Hua San Niang.
How could Hua San Niang possibly persuade him? Could it be that he just happened to be passing by?
Thinking of this, Venerable Wang Yuan clasped his hands and said, "Senior Brother Changshou, it's a misunderstanding. This is a personal feud between me and Junior Sister Hua. I hope Senior Brother Changshou will not interfere."
"hehe!"
Xu Changshou laughed: "You want to form a Daoist bond with Hua San Niang."
Venerable Wang Yuan nodded: "That's right."
Xu Changshou said without changing his expression, "If Hua San Niang doesn't agree, you'll try to force her. Am I right?"
"Forehead……"
Venerable Wang Yuan felt a little guilty, touched his nose, and said nothing.
He thought to himself, "What does it have to do with you whether I use force or not?"
Xu Changshou continued, "Back then, I entered the Donghua Immortal Sect as a menial servant and was assigned to the Sima Supervisor. Junior Sister Hua protected me back then."
Upon hearing this, Venerable Wang Yuan broke out in a cold sweat. Indeed, everyone was familiar with the legend of Xu Changshou, and everyone knew that Xu Changshou had come from the Sima Jian (a military post).
The Sima Jian of Jumen Peak was managed by Hua San Niang, which means that Xu Changshou initially followed Hua San Niang, a fact that Venerable Wang Yuan overlooked.
Xu Changshou's cold eyes swept over Venerable Wang Yuan, and he shouted, "No one can force Junior Sister Hua to do something she doesn't want to do. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
"No, no, please spare me, Senior Brother Changshou. I know I was wrong, I will never do it again."
"roll!"
"Yes, yes, I'll get out of here right now!"
Venerable Wang Yuan left in a sorry state.
Hua San Niang gratefully clasped her hands in thanks to Xu Changshou: "Thank you, Senior Brother Xu!"
"Okay, goodbye!"
Xu Changshou soared into the air and disappeared into the horizon.
