Chapter 294: Chapter 280 The Shocking Cultivators of Xia State (4K)
"My respects."
With a change of hand gestures, Lu Changsheng called back the Big Dipper Seven Swords into his body and strode away.
As the Seven Star Sword Formation dispersed, Valley Master Yun Tianba of Raging Flame Valley's old face reddened.
Before the fight, he was vowing to teach Lu Changsheng a lesson, but it was he who ended up being taught.
The sixth level Unity Realm cultivation of Raging Flame Valley's Valley Master was insufficient; he was eliminated in the first round of the Zhong Zhou Grand Conference, leaving him in a gloomy mood.
"To think that the Sect Leader of Mount Shu could easily defeat an opponent of the sixth level Unity Realm, truly a case of 'a great person does not reveal himself'."
"It seems we all underestimated him. Perhaps he could enter the top thirty-two."
"Making it to the top thirty-two might still be a bit forced. The further the Zhong Zhou Grand Conference goes, the stronger the opponents one faces."
"Regardless of the final rank of Mount Shu's Sect Leader, his ability to surpass the strength of the sixth level Unity Realm places him above many Sect Leaders. Given his potential, this is definitely not his limit; in the future, he fully has the potential to ascend to the Immortal Realm."
On the viewing platform, the powerhouses from various states whispered among themselves.
In the Zhong Zhou Grand Debate, those who can enter the top thirty-two not only possess extremely high realms, but the cultivation techniques they master are also extraordinary, and most can ascend to the Immortal Realm.
Although it was Lu Changsheng's first battle, the powerhouses of various states have already recognized his potential to ascend to the Immortal Realm.

"I didn't expect this lad to have some ability, yet he's still not my opponent. The gap between Yun Tianba and myself is like that between heaven and earth."
Sun Jian of Thousand Swords Manor saw Lu Changsheng defeat Yun Tianba with some surprise, but he did not react too much.
Lu Changsheng only showed the strength of a seventh or eighth level Unity Realm cultivator, whereas Sun Jian, a Unity Realm Great Accomplishment cultivator, still saw a significant gap between them.
Having spent a thousand years at the peak of Unity Realm to strengthen his foundation, Sun Jian consolidated his realm as much as possible before the Tribulation, ranking at the forefront among Unity Realm Great Accomplishment cultivators.
Therefore, Sun Jian still did not regard Lu Changsheng as a threat.
Yun Tianba lost to Lu Changsheng simply because Yun Tianba was too weak.
Empress Wu Yue of Great Martial had a look of appreciation in her eyes.
Lu Changsheng was more formidable than she had imagined.
When Lu Changsheng defeated Yun Tianba, it was smooth and effortless, obviously without using his full strength.
After the match between Lu Changsheng and Yun Tianba, the third and fourth Sect powerhouses began their friendly exchange.
These were two Unity Realm third level cultivators, one using a sword and the other a blade, their match was so close that it was difficult to separate the victors from the vanquished, with Gang Qi surging everywhere.
In the end, the sword cultivator won by a slight advantage.
Couples of powerful cultivators took to the stage one after another, representing their Sects in the battle, with no lack of Unity Realm Great Accomplishment cultivators who defeated their opponents with just one move.
The second fighter from Xia State's top five Sects was Grandmaster Chen from the Martial Alliance.
Grandmaster Chen faced a Unity Realm fourth level cultivator.
Having entered the Unity Realm just over a hundred years ago, Grandmaster Chen was completely outclassed and, predictably, defeated.
"Hahaha, it's fortunate to witness the cultivation techniques of other state Sects; this trip was not in vain."
Grandmaster Chen laughed heartily and did not care about the win or loss, stepping down after this.
His limit is not just the first level of the Unity Realm; given time, he has the complete potential to reach Great Accomplishment.
"It seems that only Mount Shu in Xia State has some strength, and the other Sects are far behind."
"After all, Xia State is a remote region and cannot be compared with our Zhong Zhou."
After Lu Changsheng and Grandmaster Chen took action, the powerhouses of other regions judged that Xia State's overall strength was not impressive.
"The next two to exchange insights are Master Sun Jian from Thousand Swords Manor and Sect Master Murong Buyi from Tianlan Sect."
"It is said that one is a peak Unity Realm cultivator, and the other is a seventh level Unity Realm cultivator."
"Murong Buyi really has bad luck, to face the third strongest in Zhong Zhou right at the start."
Many cast sympathetic glances towards the Sect Master of Tianlan Sect.
Givent he strength of the Sect Master of Tianlan Sect, if he were a bit luckier, he might have made it into the top fifty, but he drew Sun Jian, a peak Unity Realm cultivator for the first round, which is simply ill-fated.
Lu Changsheng furrowed his brows; it was a good opportunity to gauge the depths of Zhong Zhou's strongest cultivators.
"Master Sun, I seek guidance."
The Sect Master of Tianlan Sect secretly broke out in a cold sweat.
He was facing the renowned 'number one sword cultivator of Zhong Zhou', Master Sun Jian of Thousand Swords Manor.
He had no confidence in defeating Sun Jian and was thinking of how to lose gracefully in order to avoid embarrassment in front of his disciples and the numerous Sects.
The Sect Master of Tianlan Sect took a deep breath as the Immortal Sword emerged from its scabbard on his back.
"Hum!"
Accompanied by a clear and loud sword cry, a gleaming light filled the sky, and the winds rose as clouds surged!
The terrifying pressure caused the ground of Dragon Arena to sink, and the Sword Qi flowing through the air was like a raging storm!
"This is the pressure of a superior-grade Immortal Sword!"
"As the top Sect of Hao State, having been established for hundreds of thousands of years and with twenty to thirty people ascending to the Immortal Realm, it's not surprising for Tianlan Sect to possess a superior-grade Immortal Sword as its Sect-Defending Treasure."
"It seems Murong Buyi plans to exert all his strength in an attempt to save some face against the Manor Master of Thousand Swords Manor, not wanting to lose too badly."
"Go, Master, our Tianlan Sect is after all a major sword cultivator Sect; we must at least make Thousand Swords Manor use their Sect-Defending Skills!"
The powerhouses from various states and the elders and disciples of Tianlan Sect all thought Murong Buyi did not stand much chance, but they believed that with the superior-grade Immortal Sword and Tianlan Sect's Sect-Defending Skills, there was hope to force Sun Jian to use Thousand Swords Manor's Sect-Defending Skills.
If they could force Sun Jian to use the ultimate skill of Thousand Swords Manor, that would count as a success.
Unexpectedly, Sun Jian showed no intention of using the Sect-Defending Treasure and merely took a twig handed to him by a disciple from Thousand Swords Manor, "I will just use this twig to spar with you."
