Chapter 1675 - 476: A Thousand Years, Four Great Saints

"Four Great Saints..."

The Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect was also gazing at the Ice and Fire Great Dao in the void at this moment.

Beside him were some Great Saints.

Despite the Great Saints around him being jubilant and astonished,

the Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect remained silent, furrowing his brows, not showing any sign of happiness.

"Sect Master, why do you seem unhappy? Elder Lu is at least our guest elder of the Enlightenment Saint Sect, and now he's become a Four Great Saint. Isn't that worthy of celebration?"

"Indeed, we should go and congratulate Elder Lu."

"Elder Lu is now Lin Qingluan's dao companion, known throughout the world. Previously, Elder Lu's cultivation was not high, but now Elder Lu has become a Four Great Saint. Continuing like this, he will eventually become a High Rank Great Saint, which is a joyous occasion!"

"That's right. Once Elder Lu becomes Lin Qingluan's dao companion, after Lin Qingluan attains the Great Emperor, our Enlightenment Saint Sect will benefit greatly."

These elders were evidently very happy.

The stronger Lu Changsheng became, the more satisfied they were.

Because Lu Changsheng's strengthening was closely tied to the Enlightenment Saint Sect.

Now Lu Changsheng was not just a guest elder in the Enlightenment Saint Sect.

He was no different from the elders who were intimately familiar with the Enlightenment Saint Sect.

However, the Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect still had his brows tightly locked and asked word by word: "How long did it take Elder Lu to advance from Three Dao Great Saint to Four Great Saints?"

As soon as the Sect Master's words fell, many of the elders' faces were slightly startled.

"How long?"

They hadn't really thought about it.

But upon careful consideration, they could calculate it.

"Nine hundred years?"

"Anyway, it's very close to a thousand years. Over nine hundred years, barely a thousand I'd say."

"That speed's quite fast."

"Advancing to Four Great Saints in under a thousand years is already very strong…"

The elders spoke one after another.

But the Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect sighed deeply and said, "How long did it take Elder Lu to advance from Two Dao Great Saint to Three Dao Great Saint?"

"From One Dao Great Saint to Three Dao Great Saint, Elder Lu's performance exceeded even Lin Qingluan."

"But why, from Three Dao Great Saints to Four Great Saints, is Elder Lu's performance far inferior to Lin Qingluan?"

"Now, from Three Dao Great Saints to Four Great Saints takes about a thousand years, what about Five Dao Great Saint, Six Dao Great Saint, even Seven Dao, Eight Dao, or Nine Dao Great Saints? At this speed of cultivation, it won't be possible to reach Nine Dao Great Saints before life's limitations, let alone Great Emperor."

"What's wrong with Elder Lu's talent? How did it suddenly decline so much? This isn't normal!"

The Sect Master's words deeply shocked many elders.

They suddenly realized.

Yes, time.

This is very important.

It took Lu Changsheng about a thousand years to cultivate from Three Dao Great Saint to Four Great Saints.

To an ordinary genius, this is actually very good.

But ordinary geniuses generally cannot cultivate to High Rank Great Saint.

Let alone becoming Great Emperor.

Yet Lu Changsheng is different.

Lu Changsheng's previous performance was akin to a Great Emperor.

Yet now, suddenly spending so much time just to breakthrough to Four Great Saints.

There must be a problem.

But where is the problem?

The Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect did not know.

However, such matters can only be asked of Lu Changsheng.

Perhaps only Lu Changsheng himself knows.

Thinking of this, the Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect immediately rose and personally came to the entrance of Lu Changsheng's Cave Mansion.

At this moment, Lu Changsheng seemed to have also sensed the arrival of the Sect Master.

He immediately withdrew the Ice and Fire Great Dao.

Instantly, the void returned to calm.

Subsequently, Lu Changsheng opened the door to the Cave Mansion.

"Sect Master, please enter."

Thus, the Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect entered Lu Changsheng's Cave Mansion.

At this time, the Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect did not furrow his brows, but appeared extremely happy, smiling as he said: "Congratulations Elder Lu on condensing the fourth path of the Great Dao, advancing to Four Great Saints!"

"Sect Master, you're not here just to offer congratulations, are you?"

Lu Changsheng gave the Sect Master a deep look.

Even for congratulations, it wouldn't be necessary to come to his Cave Mansion.

A message would suffice.

Evidently, the Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect personally coming to Lu Changsheng's Cave Mansion must be more than just to offer congratulations.

Indeed, the Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect sighed deeply and said: "Elder Lu, my visit is indeed not merely for congratulations but to inquire about some things from Elder Lu."

"Sect Master, please speak freely."

"Elder Lu, although you have advanced to Four Great Saints, this time it took nearly a thousand years. To take such a long time to advance to Four Great Saints, have you encountered any problems in cultivation?"

The Sect Master of the Enlightenment Saint Sect watched Lu Changsheng closely.

The implication was obvious.

It was to inquire why Lu Changsheng's cultivation suddenly slowed down.

Lu Changsheng of course knew the reason himself.

And the reason was quite simple.

Different cultivation systems.

On the surface, Lu Changsheng spent a considerable amount of time contemplating the Great Dao on the Dao Stele.

But in reality?

It was because the cultivation system was different.

He cultivated under the Realm Lord System.

In reality, the longevity of a Realm Master is extraordinarily long, almost like a source of life.

Measured in "epochs".

But the Great Saints and Great Emperors in the Dark Domain are different.

Even a Great Emperor, compared to Realm Masters and sources of life, has a very short lifespan.

In such circumstances, Lu Changsheng's cultivation speed naturally couldn't match the cultivators in the Dark Domain.

But such a reason cannot be disclosed.

However, Lu Changsheng had long contemplated a "reason".

"Sect Master, Brother Lu comprehending the Great Dao is to gather the strengths of many, needing to understand other Dao, thus integrating them, gaining inspiration, and then comprehending his own Great Dao."
