Luo Li => Lu Li
My apologies for the late chapter, it seems like I can't catch a break lately.
The updates will be moved to 11:59 pm GMT+8 from tomorrow onwards.
And as promised, here are the chapters from today and yesterday, in addition to one promised extra chapter as an apology for the delay.
.....
Sacred Land Outer Gate, many elders have read the sect's historical scrolls and have some impression of the founder, Saint. Upon hearing Wang Song's words, they also recalled that the face in the sky resembelled Li Luo's.
"Is it really Saint Li Luo?!"
"Something big must be happening if the even the Saint appeared."
The Immortal Gate has existed for tens of thousands of years, yet such a thing has never happened before. The elders are curious about what had happened inside Sacred Land.
"It must be Lu Chuan who did something disrespectful to the Saint in the Sacred Land!" Nangong Xi said, "Elder Wang Song, please allow me to go in and bring him out."
Nangong Xi hates Lu Chuan so much that he subconsciously believes that Lu Chuan has angered the Saint.
"Elder Wang, I want to go into Sacred Land and see what's happening. If something happens, I will bring Lu Chuan out and hold him accountable."
Although Lin Qingxue doesn't believe what Nangong Xi said, she can't help but worry that something might have happened to Lu Chuan.
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her lips tightened. Her face was filled with worry and anxiousness.
Wang Song is used to Nangong Xi exaggerating things, but what's wrong with Lin Qingxue this time?
Wang Song has never seen Lin Qingxue so anxious before.
Although Lu Li is her disciple, she was worried for Lu Chuan's well being first.
Lu Chuan is the closed-door disciple of her senior brother. What is his relationship with Lin Qingxue?
The disciple of his senior brother must have extraordinary ability. Wang Song chose to wait and see, believing in Lu Chuan and Lu Li.
"Don't worry, let's observe the situation first. The Saint's presence may not necessarily be a bad thing. This might be an opportunity for the two of them. Don't speculate on the Saint's intentions without authorization."
Inside Sacred Land, the last trace of Dao Rhyme was absorbed by Lu Chuan.
When he opened his eyes, Lu Chuan saw the anomaly in the Sacred Land. Thunder and lightning filled the sky, the clouds swirling.
"I must have absorbed too much and incurred heavenly condemnation," Lu Chuan thought.
"Senior Brother Lu Chuan, what's happening?" Lu Li also woke up from her meditation and saw the anomaly in the sky.
"I don't know, but I think we should leave the Sacred Land first," Lu Chuan grabbed Lu Li's hand and prepared to run outside.
The probability of being struck by lightning would definitely decrease when he was with the Son of Fortune.
"Kid, don't be in such a hurry."
A deep male voice came from the sky, stopping Lu Chuan's actions.
The clouds in the sky formed an old face. Just by looking up, Lu Chuan could feel the absolute pressure of a higher-ranking individual.
A powerhouse above the Soul Formation Stage!
"Senior, I am Lu Chuan, the direct disciple of the Sect Master of the Immortal Gate," Lu Chuan took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to escape.
By stating his background, if the other party wanted to take action against Lu Chuan, they would also have some scruples about the Immortal Gate.
Lu Chuan noticed that he couldn't help but tremble when he spoke.
This was fear of absolute strength.
Since transmigrating to the cultivation world, this was the first time Lu Chuan felt his life was threatened.
Ordinary cultivators would hide their edge in their daily lives unless they were facing enemies. Otherwise, they wouldn't easily release their aura.
But the pressure coming from the sky almost made Lu Chuan unable to stand steady.
In the eyes of true powerhouses, he was no different from an ant, easily crushed.
'I am still too weak. I need to become stronger, to have the strength to confront the true powerhouses of the cultivation world.'
He wasn't seeking power for the sake of wanton killing or bullying the weak. He just wanted to survive in this cultivation world where the strong were respected and have his own place.
The desire for power grew in Lu Chuan's heart.
This unexpected event, which had never appeared in the original novel, made Lu Chuan uncertain and unsure if he could survive today.
Hold onto the protagonist's thigh first.
Lu Chuan approached Lu Li, and their bodies were almost pressed together.
He could feel Lu Li's body trembling. Her lips were slightly open, but she didn't make any sound.
Lu Chuan felt Lu Li next to him, and the next second, she fainted in his arms.
Looking at her lips when she fainted, Lu Chuan understood what she wanted to say: Senior Brother Lu Chuan, I'm sorry, I can't hold on anymore.
The clouds in the sky continued to condense, forming a tall figure with a scholarly air.
He noticed Lu Li fainting and realized that his aura was leaking, so he retracted his aura.
"Kid, I'm really sorry. I haven't awakened for too long, and I'm still a bit unaccustomed," the middle-aged man continued, "If my guess is correct, you absorbed all the Dao Rhyme condensed here for the past ten years, right?"
Lu Chuan broke out in a cold sweat when faced with the unknown origin of this powerful individual. Is he here to settle the score with me?
"Senior, I don't know what you're talking about. I was just meditating and trying to comprehend the Dao Rhyme left by the Ancestral Saint in Sacred Land."
Upon hearing Lu Chuan's words, the middle-aged man laughed a few times. "Kid, you don't recognize me?"
"Senior, forgive my ignorance. I haven't been cultivating for long, and I don't know much about the history of the cultivation world."
"Hahaha. Kid, I am the Ancestral Saint you mentioned."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Since he was the Ancestor of the Immortal Gate, there should be no threat to his life.
"Disciple Lu Chuan pays respects to the Ancestor." Lu Chuan could only bow with clasped fists because he was holding Lu Li in his arms.
"No need for formalities. I've been dead for so many years, there's no need for excessive courtesy. I am just a lingering remnant."
After all, it was the sect he created, and there was always some attachment. He wanted to know how the future development of the Immortal Gate was, and whether it still existed in the world.
"This lingering remnant is gradually becoming stronger after thousands of years of development in this place filled with spiritual energy and my Dao Rhyme."
Lu Chuan understood, but still didn't know why he appeared in front of him.
Seemingly reading Lu Chuan's thoughts, the Ancestor continued, "It was because you absorbed all the Dao Rhyme here that I sensed this lingering remnant. Someone with the potential to become an Immortal Emperor appeared so I wanted to meet him."
"To possess both the Chaotic Immortal Physique and the Flawless Sword Body, these two rare constitutions appearing in the same person, truly makes me marvel at the wonders of the world."
"Even though you are only at the Foundation Building Stage, you can absorb so many Dao Rhymes.
With someone like you as the successor of the Immortal Gate, I can rest assured.
I see that you are cultivating an incomplete version of the 'Changqing Jue.' I will pass on the complete version to you as a reward for your outstanding performance."
The Ancestor raised his hand and pointed it in the air above Lu Chuan's head.
As if receiving an epiphany, the original version of the 'Changqing Jue' technique appeared in Lu Chuan's mind, along with textual explanations of the cultivation methods and techniques.
The modified version of the 'Changqing Jue' is widely circulated within the Immortal Gate, and the original version has long been lost, with only a few fragments found in the library.
The cultivation efficiency of the original version should far exceed that of the modified version, as the absorption and utilization of spiritual energy and the understanding of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth are on a completely different level.
However, when Lu Chuan tried to cultivate the complete version of the 'Changqing Jue,' he didn't feel any changes in his cultivation. Did he misunderstand something?
Seeing the disappointment on Lu Chuan's face, the Ancestor also remembered something.
"Forget that you have the Chaotic Immortal Physique. With your extraordinary constitution, your absorption of spiritual energy is already at its highest speed, and the quality of the cultivation method has no effect on you."
After all the fuss, he was scared half to death, and yet he didn't gain any substantial benefits.
But he couldn't show any dissatisfaction in front of the Ancestor, so Lu Chuan forced a smile.
"It's alright. I thank the Ancestor for his reward. I will double my efforts and not disappoint the Ancestor's expectations."
Seemingly guessing what Lu Chuan was thinking, Li Luo Ancestor laughed, "You are quite interesting, kid. Even though you didn't gain any benefits, you are still so polite. If I were still alive, I would make you my direct disciple."
"What you see of me is just a lingering remnant, so I can't provide you with any substantial help.
I see that your cultivation is so low you can't even stand firm in the cultivation world. Let me give you two defensive talismans.
A strand of golden light descended from the sky and gradually merged into Lu Chuan's body.
"These two golden lights are the strongest possession talismans I can currently condense. One is an offensive gold talisman that can unleash the full power of the Soul Formation Stage, and the other is a defensive gold talisman that can withstand attacks from below the Void Refining stage.
When using them, just silently recite my name in your mind."
Above the Nascent Soul stage is the Soul Formation stage, and above the Soul Formation stage is the Void Refining stage.
For Lu Chuan, this was truly an unexpected joy. It gave him a bit more confidence in his future actions.
A full power attack from the Soul Formation Stage, unless it's a cultivator specializing in defense, even those at the Soul Formation Stage wouldn't be able to withstand it. If caught off guard, it might even be able to kill a Void Refining stage expert.
The defensive gold talisman could protect Lu Chuan from a fatal blow, and perhaps he could escape from a powerful enemy by feigning death with it.
"Thank you, Senior."
The figure of the senior became transparent. It had cost him too much spiritual energy to give out these two gold talismans, he didn't have much time left to maintain his human form.
If fate allows, I'll give some benefits to the young girl present as well, Li Luo thought.
Saint Li Luo waved his hands and drew a large amount of spiritual energy from a nearby ancient tree, enveloping Lu Li. In an instant, a large amount of black impurities emerged from Lu Li's body and were absorbed by the spiritual energy of the ancient tree.
This was helping Lu Li cleanse her meridians and marrow.
In the sky, Li Luo's body gradually dissipated, turning into a few inconspicuous clouds on the horizon.
Before dispersing, he surveyed the entire Wàng Immortal Gate. Although it was different from the small sect in his memory, he still had deep feelings for it.
"Kid, until we meet again by fate."
Sacred Land returned to calmness, with its usual thatched cottages and towering ancient trees. In the spacious courtyard, only Lu Chuan and Lu Li remained.
Lu Chuan looked at Lu Li, who was still unconscious, in his arms.
Lu Li's skin became as delicate as white jade. Her petite and exquisite body clung tightly to Lu Chuan's, soft like water. Her sleeping face was enchantingly beautiful, with a hint of charm. Coupled with her inherent elegance.
Lu Chuan swallowed his saliva, unexpectedly having strange delusions about the protagonist.
Is this person really a man? Lu Chuan had doubts in his mind.
Although it's said that a gentleman doesn't take advantage of others in a vulnerable state, Lu Chuan is the antagonist after all.
Let me take a look and see if my junior's development is normal.
Lu Chuan prepared to take advantage of Lu Li's unconsciousness to confirm her gender.
