Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 236 The Foundation of the Shangqing Dynasty
When Lu Ming's voice rang out, Qingxiao, who had been watching the battle from a distance, finally walked out with a smile.

She wore a long white dress, and her beautiful hair fell down her back.

When it stands in mid-air, its entire body is bathed in the glow of the sunset.

Looking down.

It exudes an air of nobility.

Then, their gaze fell upon the people of the Tianheng Sect.

"Although my Shangqing Sect has been out of the public eye for a long time, my disciples, including those of sages, are not so lowly as to become rogue cultivators who can be bullied at will. Does your Tianheng Sect know the price of breaking the rules? Do you really think my Shangqing Sect has no one left?"

When Qingxiao finished speaking, his voice became unusually stern.

At this point, it was no longer just about Lu Ming; it involved the entire Shangqing Sect.

Even though she is now her only disciple.

Normally, we could joke around without any problem, but today, since it involves the Shangqing Sect, there's no room for negotiation.

As she finished speaking.

The powerful figures from the Tianheng Sect exchanged bewildered glances, their expressions turning extremely grim.

Although the Shangqing Sect is currently not active in the world, it is still a sect with a sage presiding over it, and no one in the world dares to provoke it.

Especially this female disciple, whom they all know, is Qingxiao of the Shangqing Sect, and is also the youngest disciple of the Shangqing Sage.

They survived the great calamity of that year.

He had already attained the Great Luo Realm.

Even their sect leader might not be able to match him.

Therefore, the Fifth Elder, who was in charge, pondered for a moment and then said, "I am really sorry, we did not know that Emperor Yu came from the Shangqing Sect. We are willing to leave now, and we ask the Immortal for forgiveness."

"Hmph, trying to leave after breaking the rules? Not so easy."

The Shangqing Sect has always been domineering. In ancient times, they would fight with people at the slightest disagreement. Moreover, because they had many disciples and were very united, they would always come out in groups.

Now, although only Qingxiao remains, his domineering personality is deeply ingrained, so how could he let the people of Tianheng Sect leave so easily?

When the sound is heard.

She struck out with her palm.

The jade-like palm transformed into a vast expanse of water.

It covers the entire sky.

They started fighting without even saying a word.

The Fifth Elder's expression changed drastically, and he dared not be negligent.

He quickly raised his hand to block, while roaring, "Heavenly Eternity Palm!"

"boom!"

The two palm prints collided, releasing a vast amount of energy.

The violent energy swirled and churned in all directions.

Then, the Fifth Elder's body was seen retreating, and the others from the Tianheng Sect coughed up blood.

Qingxiao looks cute, but she actually uses a deadly move right from the start.

"Fairy Maiden, why do you have to do this? It's really a misunderstanding." The Fifth Elder of Tianheng Sect pleaded in his voice.

He really didn't want to fight Qingxiao. Regardless of the outcome, he would be finished. There was no way he could fight this battle.

He's now filled with regret, wondering why he just came.

He harbored intense hatred for the Sect Master of Tianheng.

This is like sending yourself to your death.

“Now, my Shangqing Sect only has me and my junior brother. If you want to kill him, this is a provocation against my Shangqing Sect and an attempt to destroy our sect. If we don’t kill you, you will ride roughshod over my Shangqing Sect in the future.”

Do you really think that without the past practice of ten thousand immortals paying homage, you can't deal with your Tianheng Sect?

Qingxiao's voice was very loud.

And it's very crisp.

Piercing through the nine heavens.

Inside the Heavenly Gate in the clouds, the celestial general guarding it twitched his ears, then his gaze pierced through the clouds as he looked down. After discovering the scene before him, he turned and left.

A moment later, they arrived at a grand hall.

The interior is resplendent in gold and jade, and is guarded by celestial soldiers.

It exudes an aura of authority.

There is a plaque above that reads "Demonic Hall".

This is the Heavenly Realm, the main hall of the Demon-Slaying Marshal. He was originally a core disciple of the Shangqing Sect. After being branded a slave in a battle, he took up a post in the Heavenly Court and now commands a million-strong Demon-Slaying Army, renowned throughout the world.

"Shen Tu Hu, why aren't you guarding Tianmen? What are you doing here?"

The general guarding the palace gates had just entered.

A middle-aged man sitting on the throne said calmly.

He was dressed in black armor and had a burly build.

His gaze was so deep it seemed to see through everything.

It was none other than the Demon-Slaying Marshal.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Tu Xiu, who was guarding the palace gate, said in a carefree manner, "Senior brother, I didn't come here to slack off or to have a drink with you today. It's because junior sister and junior brother were bullied."

"Aren't you the youngest junior brother?" Marshal Mo asked, raising a brow.

Shen Tu Xiu immediately said, "It is a new disciple of Master. He was competing in the lower realm and was targeted by the Da Luo of Tianheng Sect. We cannot ignore this matter. Although he is now serving in the Heavenly Court, he is still a disciple of Shangqing Sect."

It's unacceptable for junior brothers and sisters to be bullied.

If you don't take care of this, I'll go myself. I finally have a junior brother; how can I let him be bullied like this?

"Hmph, you dare to be so presumptuous with just a mere Tianheng Sect? As long as we senior brothers and sisters are here, it's not your turn to make a move."

Then, looking at the deputy general outside the door, he said, "Notify the Demon-Slaying Army to come with me to the Tianheng Sect."

"As ordered!"

The lieutenant quickly replied.

Then he withdrew.

A moment later, the Demon-Slaying Marshal walked out of the hall, and the army had already assembled.

The dark, imposing army exuded a thick, chilling aura.

"set off!"

At the command of the Demon Marshal, he steered his chariot and plunged downwards.

The speed was extremely fast.

He transformed into a streak of light, with the other warriors following closely behind.

This is one of the most elite armies of the Heavenly Court. Every soldier under its command has reached the True Immortal realm, and some are even at the Profound Immortal realm. Such a lineup is not just for show.

As for the Demon-Slaying Marshal, he had already reached the Quasi-Saint level.

Dealing with a Tianheng Sect member would be a piece of cake.

The army charged forward like a tidal wave.

Wherever it passed, it was as if countless shooting stars were blooming in the sky.

The Celestial Emperor Haotian sat in his Lingtian Palace.

I am listening to my subordinate's report.

After a moment, he closed his eyes and said calmly, "Marshal Dangmo can go down to the mortal realm if he wants. Although the people of Shangqing Sect have been marked with slave seals, who would dare to use them as subordinates? I can't afford to offend the Sect Master of Shangqing Sect."

In ancient times, the world almost reopened.

The Tianheng Sect is blind; of all people to mess with, they had to provoke the Shangqing Sect.

With his size, even a slight touch from him would be enough to make him suffer!

After speaking, the Celestial Emperor Haotian waved his hand, signaling his celestial officials to step down.

After the other party left.

The entire Heavenly Palace fell silent.

The Immortal Emperor picked up a pot of wine and drank it by himself, muttering to himself, "I haven't interfered in the affairs below. I only sent a giant spirit general to test the waters, and your Tianheng Sect dared to act recklessly. You really don't know what's good for you."

Meanwhile, within the Tianheng Sect, the sect leader, who is currently in seclusion, is suffering.

Even as the Demon-Slaying Marshal was in the air, his heavy sword had already cleaved down, unleashing a sword beam that stretched for ten thousand feet and enveloped the entire sky.

The main hall of the Tianheng Sect Master, along with himself, was cleaved in two by a single sword strike before he could even let out a scream.

The remaining disciples were besieged and annihilated by the army. The entire sect was doomed.

The Fifth Elder was even less able to retaliate against Shang Qingxiao's attack.

His palm was shattered, turned into a bloody mist by Qingxiao's palm strike.

Then, a bell rang out from the other person's palm.

The sound was very pleasant, but the heavens and earth trembled.

The Fifth Elder's expression changed drastically. "The Heavenly Bell!"

He exclaimed in surprise.

But it was all too late.

Under the influence of the innate spiritual treasure's bell, he felt unable to move.

Then, a pure white finger flew through the air and landed on his head.

With a single finger, the Fifth Elder's head was shattered.

His subordinates, however, had already perished.

When the battlefield is in complete chaos.

After glancing around, Qingxiao said calmly, "Lu Ming is my master's youngest disciple. Now that he has entered the arena to compete, I ask that you all abide by the rules. Otherwise, my Shangqing Sect will show no mercy!"

The voice sounded.

His gaze swept across the surroundings with disdain.

Huang Sheng involuntarily shrank his neck.

Then he went into his own tent and dared not come out again.

In the past, he might have felt a sense of superiority over Lu Ming.

Now, it's completely gone.

Even if the Shangqing Sect is now in decline, it's not something the Xuanhuang Sect can easily take advantage of.

It doesn't have to be him; even if their ancestor came, it would be the same.

Just then, the communication jade talisman in his hand lit up.

Upon inspection, it was discovered that the Tianheng Sect had been destroyed.

This news turned him pale.

This is the essence of a sage. Although he was confined to Golden Light Island, countless people were willing to serve him.

Moreover, there are no weaklings.

Outside, Qingxiao gave a warning to those spying on the battlefield.

Only then did their gaze turn to Lu Ming.

She walked over with a smile.

"Junior brother has always been competitive, I didn't expect him to finally ask for help today. But there's nothing shameful about it. It's really foolish not to know how to use an elder."

"Thank you, Senior Sister. Actually, I'm not that competitive. It's just that my opponents were too weak in the past, so I didn't need you to help me," Lu Ming said with a smile.

Qingxiao nodded. "That's true. For someone of your senior sister's status to bully your opponent is really shameful. After today's matter is resolved, you should do what you're supposed to do. Master said that you should have the same treatment as others."

"Understood, Senior Sister." Lu Ming nodded.

To be honest, in the past, I always dealt with any enemy on my own.

It feels great to have someone protecting you these days.

"Good to know. Then I'll be going now, Senior Sister. I hope you can give Master a surprise next time we meet." After saying that, Qingxiao's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot.

Lu Ming, on the other hand, was staring in the direction where Huang Sheng was.

A hint of disdain flashed in his eyes. So he's too scared to come out?

Once he has governed all the territories under his command.

Then make the other party look bad.

Lu Ming's battle also alarmed the Haotian Immortal Realm, not because he seized the land of the Ten Prefectures, but because he became a disciple of the Shangqing Sage.

Inside the Lu family compound, both the family patriarch and Lu Hui wore complex expressions.

Lu Ming is indeed outstanding, after all, he was valued by the Shangqing Sage and became a disciple of the Holy Land. How could he not be outstanding? Moreover, he conquered the land of ten prefectures. But as for how rare the Lu family is, it's really not that rare.

If Lu Ming had worshipped any other saint as his master, Lu Hui would probably be filled with regret and beg his son for forgiveness.

But alas, he is the Sage of Shangqing, a being who is ostracized by other sages and seemingly disliked even by his own master.

He has no disciples left.

Getting involved with him means you're destined to fall into endless trouble.

With the Lu family's resources, they can't withstand any setbacks.

Therefore, I felt somewhat conflicted.

At this moment, the patriarch of the Lu family glared at Lu Hui and said, "Why aren't you getting back? Stay here and wait for your meal!"

The angry shout rang out, and although Lu Hui felt wronged, he could only lower his head and leave.

He found that since Lu Ming appeared, he had been getting scolded a lot more often.

But there's nothing I can do; I don't even dare send people to deal with Lu Ming anymore.

Although he didn't want to get involved with the Shangqing Sage, he couldn't afford to offend him.

Everyone knows how ruthless the Shangqing Sage was in ancient times.

Inside the Taiqing Palace, the Taiqing Sage, upon receiving the news, had a slightly somber expression.

The Sage of Shangqing could be considered his mortal enemy.

Now, Lu Ming has rejected him and instead joined the other party's ranks.

It made him lose face a little.

"Hmph, my junior brother is getting more and more useless. He only just reached the standard of a saint's disciple, and he's already making such a fuss over a disciple. It's really shameful!"

His face was gloomy as he spoke.

The disciples below dared not say a word.

It just stood there obediently.

After all, they have no right to judge a saint.

Inside the Xuanhuang Sect, the Xuanhuang Ancestor was feeling quite uneasy.

He hadn't expected that Lu Ming was actually a disciple of the Shangqing Sage.

Although the Xuanhuang Sect is powerful, it is nothing more than a slightly larger ant in front of a sage.

If the sage of Shangqing were to target him.

His fate will definitely not be good.

At this time, Lu Ming was unaware of all this.

He has now returned to his camp.

Now that Dayu has finally stabilized, it's time to focus on development.

In the days that followed, he continued to comprehend supernatural powers and strengthen his cultivation.

In the blink of an eye, several months have passed.

On this day, Lu Ming was drinking alone in his tent.

Zhang Meng appeared outside.

"Your Majesty, Wu Han has just sent a battle report that the last three prefectures have been captured."

"Bring it in for a look!" Lu Ming said calmly.

Zhang Meng then cautiously walked in.

Then, a jade talisman was handed to Lu Ming.

He picked it up and looked at it for a moment, then a look of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

Wu Han truly did not disappoint him.

In the three prefectures, a trillion immortal crystals were seized, which is quite a lot.

Moreover, they also subdued eight Taiyi Xuanxian and more than fifty Taiyi Zhenxian.

The number of experts under the command of the Great Yu has finally been replenished.

Next, Lu Ming opened the system space. He was going to check how many points he had gained this time. If possible, he planned to exchange for the Nine Cauldrons again. As long as he had the Nine Cauldrons to gather fortune, there would be fewer and fewer people in the world who could threaten the Great Yu.
