Novel Full Chapter 415 The Gap Between People (4K)_2
The grand palm prints bombarded incessantly, and the figure of the Yaochi Holy Son gradually descended, actually being driven underground by Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng’s True Qi seemed to be endless as he consistently delivered the Immovable King Seal, various mantras suppressing and shattering the ground.
Zhu Tianze’s forehead bulged with veins, as if he were battling a Buddha.
The problem was, Lu Changsheng was a Holy Son of the Taihua Holy Land, not a Buddha Son from Mt. Sumeru Holy Land or the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple!

Lu Changsheng’s Immovable King Seal also incorporated the Ziwei Celestial Flame, a flame renowned for causing even Immortal Emperors to burn until both soul and body were annihilated; Zhu Tianze dared not touch even a fraction of it.
Disciples from both the Taihua and the Yaochi Holy Lands were left dumbfounded.
Originally, they had thought that Zhu Tianze could suppress Lu Changsheng, but the situation had reversed, with Zhu Tianze being suppressed by Lu Changsheng.
Ye Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead, “His True Qi is probably several times mine. He really is a monster. If things go well, he might even make it into the top ten of the Qilin Ranking, competing side by side with those monstrous talents from the other Holy Lands.”
Jiang Yu, upon seeing Lu Changsheng suppress Zhu Tianze, showing astonishing aptitude, felt even more envious.
The greater Lu Changsheng’s talent, the more difficult it would be for Jiang Yu to surpass him in the future.
The top ten of the Qilin Ranking was something that candidates for the Holy Son like Jiang Yu and Ye Feng did not even dare to dream of.
Those who could enter the top ten of the Qilin Ranking were all monsters with incredible innate talent.
Yet, such a monster now appeared right before their eyes.
“It’s no wonder, being in the Golden Immortal Realm and already ranked thirty-ninth on the Qilin Ranking, he’s a peerless genius. In the future, he might even enter the top ten, or climb even higher.”
“Lin Xuantong has taken on a pretty good disciple.”
“If I remember correctly, Lin Xuantong’s eldest disciple, Qingyang Immortal Emperor, once ranked sixth on the Qilin Ranking, defeating our Holy Sons and Holy Maidens of the time. I never thought that after the disappearance of Qingyang Immortal Emperor, Lin Xuantong would take another incredible disciple; he is indeed lucky. A monstrous talent capable of entering the top ten of the Qilin Ranking, a Holy Land can produce one or two in ten million years, and their growth alone is enough to shelter the Holy Land for tens of millions of years.”
The observing Elders from Yaochi Holy Land had personally witnessed Lu Changsheng suppress their Holy Son, and amidst their shock, they whispered amongst themselves.
Because of their bloodline, the strongest in the Yaochi Holy Land was the Holy Maiden lineage. It was not a representation of the Yaochi Holy Land’s strength that the Yaochi Holy Son was lackluster.
Liu Yiyi, with her Immortal Spirit Holy Body, was in fact the most talented person of the younger generation in the Yaochi Holy Land.
Of course, Liu Yiyi had not been cultivating for long enough and was not yet ready to take on heavy responsibilities.
“Stop!”
Zhu Tianze was being suppressed by Lu Changsheng, taking the Immovable King Seal infused with Ziwei Celestial Flame for tens of thousands of times. Zhu Tianze could only passively take the beating.
Zhu Tianze had only just stepped into the realm of a first-stage Immortal Emperor, his magical treasures and cultivation techniques were not yet on par with those of a true Immortal Emperor powerhouse.
He had not expected the Quasi-Emperor Lu Changsheng to be so fierce, completely overpowering him.
Zhu Tianze had not cultivated a Body Tempering Skill of the same caliber as Lu Changsheng’s “Qing Emperor Eternal Life Art”. If he were to be hit by the Immovable King Seal with Ziwei Celestial Flame, his Taoist body might be severely injured.
Seeing Zhu Tianze concede, Lu Changsheng also did not continue his attack.
The other party was the Yaochi Holy Son, with whom he had no enmity or grievance; there was no need for harsh measures.
Lu Changsheng had tested the fusion of the “Immovable King Seal” and the “Ziwei Celestial Flame True Art” using Zhu Tianze.
The “Ziwei Celestial Flame True Art”, as the sect-defending skill of the Taihua Holy Land, truly lives up to its reputation. The True Qi of Ziwei Celestial Flame that it refines, when combined with martial techniques and swordsmanship, can greatly amplify the power of those techniques and swords, making any opponent extremely wary.
Even a first-stage Immortal Emperor, without having cultivated superior Body Tempering methods, would not dare to be touched by the Ziwei Celestial Flame.
Lu Changsheng’s Innate Taoist Body further multiplied the quantity of his True Qi, several times that of cultivators at the same realm; even compared to a first-stage Immortal Emperor, he was not inferior.
“However, I am still not a match for an Immortal Emperor like the Grand Freedom Buddha, who has cultivated for millions of years. Facing such a level of opponent, I should still lie low for now.”
Lu Changsheng had a clear understanding of his own strength and the gap between him and an Immortal Emperor.
The Immortal Emperor realm is divided into nine stages, with each stage bringing massive improvement.
A Buddha like the Grand Freedom Buddha, from the same era as Qingyang Immortal Emperor, was obviously more than ten times stronger than Zhu Tianze, who had just entered the first stage of the Immortal Emperor realm.
The Grand Freedom Buddha could shatter Lu Changsheng’s Great Luo Golden Body with a single finger.
As for beings like Lin Xuantong, Liu Mufeng, and the Yaochi Holy Mother, who had cultivated for ten million years, their strength was even more formidable.
After the sparring session ended, Zhu Tianze put away his Hidden Edge Sword and approached Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng frowned. What now? Was the Yaochi Holy Son still not satisfied?
Unexpectedly, Zhu Tianze laughed heartily, “Haha, I’ve lost. You truly are a monstrous talent expected to challenge the top ten of the Qilin Ranking. I can’t compete with you. Miss Lin, I’m not worthy, and from now on, I won’t entertain any further thoughts.”
Zhu Tianze scratched his head, deciding to give up pursuing Lin Qinghan.
The gap between people can be even greater than the gap between people and dogs.
Though diligence can make up for a lack of talent, when the other party is not only more talented but also a top student and a show-off, how could he compete?
It hurts, it really does.
Zhu Tianze then gave a bitter smile.
Oh?
Lu Changsheng was somewhat surprised.
He had thought that Zhu Tianze and Jiang Yu were cut from the same cloth and that being defeated would leave Tianze harboring resentment.
He didn’t expect that the Holy Son of Yaochi would be so open-minded, voluntarily admitting defeat and appearing quite relieved.
It’s just a pity that he is a “lick dog”…
As everyone knows, a “lick dog,” a “lick dog,” ends up with nothing in the end.
“Our Yaochi has always had good relations with your Mount Taihua, and in the future, we may even fight side by side. This could be a case of ‘no fight, no acquaintance.'”
Zhu Tianze shook hands with Lu Changsheng.
Both being Holy Sons, even if they do not end up in charge of the Holy Land in the future, they would at least be Supreme Elders, pillars of their respective holy places. Seeing each other often, it is very likely they will join forces to complete missions.
Lu Changsheng was not averse to making the acquaintance of the Holy Son of Yaochi.
Ye Feng coldly said, “Jiang Yu, it seems even the Holy Son of Yaochi can’t defeat Lu Changsheng without making an enemy of him. Your plan has failed.”
Jiang Yu clenched his teeth, “One day, I, Jiang Yu, will reclaim the position of Holy Son.”
…
In the loft of the grand hall on Taihua Divine Mountain, Lin Xuantong, the Holy Mother of Yaochi, Liu Mufeng, Feng Qing’er, and other high-level members of the Holy Land watched the sparring at the arena from an extremely long distance.
With their sky-reaching cultivation, such a distance meant nothing.
“Lin Xuantong, you have taken on a good disciple. His talent surpasses that of Qingyang from millions of years ago. In the future, he might even replace you as the master of the Taihua Holy Land.”
The Holy Mother of Yaochi couldn’t help but express her admiration for Lu Changsheng’s talent, as she witnessed him overpower Zhu Tianze, despite being at a lower cultivation level.
Lin Xuantong has consecutively accepted two disciples who could enter the top ten of the Qilin Ranking. Such luck was unrivaled.
“The Holy Son of Yaochi, though his talent far exceeds that of ordinary people, is still somewhat inferior compared to the bloodline of the Holy Maiden of Yaochi. If I’m not mistaken, Liu Mufeng, Feng Qing’er, your daughter is the once-in-a-million-years Immortal Spirit Holy Body. In the future, she too might have a chance to reach the top ten of the Qilin Ranking.”
After the Holy Mother of Yaochi praised her own disciple, Lin Xuantong also flattered her in kind, engaging in a mutual admiration exchange.
Liu Mufeng remarked, “In recent years, the Blood Sea Palace has been increasingly rampant in recruiting heretic cultivators, and many sects affiliated with the Holy Lands have been attacked, posing a serious threat that must be eradicated as soon as possible.”
Upon hearing Liu Mufeng mention the Blood Sea Palace, Lin Xuantong’s expression immediately became grave, “The Blood Sea Palace once plotted against my daughter, I must annihilate them. Ever since my daughter was ambushed on Gusang Island in Nether Sea, although I have not taken action openly, I have begun investigating the origins of the Blood Sea Palace in secret.”
The Holy Mother of Yaochi looked at Lin Xuantong with a touch of surprise, “Have you found any clues?”
Lin Xuantong, who was once ranked second on the Qilin Ranking, a peerless talent only second to the current Saint Lord of Kunlun, was highly regarded by the Holy Mother of Yaochi, who placed great importance on this younger generation.
Lin Xuantong’s gaze was deep, “I have reliable information that behind the Blood Sea Palace, there are people from the Demon Realm secretly supporting it, which is why they have been able to expand so quickly.”
“The Demon Realm…”
The Holy Mother of Yaochi gritted her teeth.
Her senior disciple was abducted by a powerful being from the Demon Realm, and to date, there has been no word of her. Yaochi Holy Land had invaded the Demon Realm to rescue the Holy Maiden and suffered great losses in vitality as a consequence.
Feng Qing’er said, “If the Demon Realm is indeed behind the Blood Sea Palace, the matter is no small concern. Does ‘Heavenly Court’ know about this?”
Lin Xuantong replied, “The ‘Heavenly Court’ has people monitoring the Demon Realm; it’s impossible they don’t know.”
The Holy Mother of Yaochi, Liu Mufeng, and Feng Qing’er fell into silence.
After a while, the Holy Mother of Yaochi spoke, “This matter may need to be reported to the Purple Void Palace in Kunlun Mountains. Our two great Holy Lands may have to bring out our many years of heritage and go all out to cultivate the younger generation of disciples and elders to prepare for any possible contingencies.”
