The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

At this moment, Ma Changshou and the others looked incredulous.

"Brother Lu, you're not kidding, are you?!"

"If one has reached the pinnacle of Mahayana Buddhism, wouldn't that mean they're only one major realm away from becoming an immortal?"

The currently recognized cultivation realms are: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Deity Transformation, Void Refining, Body Integration, Mahayana, and Tribulation Transcending.

After overcoming the tribulation, one ascends to become an immortal.

Although everyone believed that after the great changes in the world, someone would surely attain immortality this time.

But it's still quite surprising to hear that someone has achieved Mahayana enlightenment.

Lu Changfeng nodded.

"That's right. Moreover, the older generation of the Hu Lan Immortal Clan all possess immortal veins, which reduces their lifespan by fifty times, and they can use spiritual herbs of the same level as longevity-extending elixirs!"

"And don't forget, demonic beasts live longer than humans, and those with divine beast bloodlines live even longer than demonic beasts!"

"Based on this calculation, it's quite normal for the other party to have lived for millions or even tens of millions of years."

Upon hearing this, Ma Changshou and the others immediately fell silent.

Now they finally understood why Lu Changfeng was being so cautious. It turned out that a Great Ascension cultivator at the peak of his cultivation was standing behind their enemy. If they had known this, they probably would have been too scared to move.

At this moment, Han Lingxiao couldn't help but ask,

"Uncle-Master Lu, since the Hu Lan Immortal Clan is so powerful, doesn't that mean Master is in danger?"

These words immediately pulled everyone back from their reverie.

Indeed, the Hu Lan Immortal Clan is so strong. Although Ye Tian is also strong, he is ultimately only a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. At most, he can cross a major realm to kill an enemy.

However, even if the Mahayana cultivators were remnants of the old era, they were not something Ye Tian could handle in his current state.

"Yeah, Brother Lu, does that mean Senior Brother Ye Tian has absolutely no chance of resisting?"

However, Lu Changfeng shook his head again.

"No, no!"

"But I was getting a little thirsty, and suddenly I'm craving some spiritual fruit. This whole thing is such a mess!"

He even smacked his lips twice as he spoke, which stunned everyone.

Well, now that you've got to the point, you said you wanted to eat fruit.

There was no other way; even if it was just for fun, they had to get their hands on it. Fortunately, after rummaging through their storage rings, they soon pulled out a large pile of spirit fruits.

They had originally saved these as gifts for their disciples and grand-disciples, but they never expected to use them today.

After eating a few, Lu Changfeng continued talking.

"Actually, you don't need to worry too much. Although these super ancestors are powerful, they usually won't come out of seclusion to deal with a mere Nascent Soul stage nobody unless it's a critical moment!"

"It's like you guys. Would you personally deal with a Qi Refining cultivator? No, because it's not worth it!"

"They are in a similar situation."

"And there's something you haven't noticed: immortal veins can use spiritual herbs of the same level as longevity-extending elixirs!"

"These super ancestors have lived for countless years. Although they are still members of the Hu Lan Immortal Clan, they are separated from the current generation by countless generations, so many that they themselves cannot even count the generations! The kinship has long since faded."

"It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the later clansmen were all their servants who collected high-grade spiritual herbs!"

"Would the master get involved in the servants' feuds?"

Although Lu Changfeng's analogy was a bit extreme, they understood the meaning behind it.

That means that for the time being, there won't be any highly skilled members of the Hu Lan Immortal Clan dealing with Ye Tian.

This greatly relieved them, but that was a Mahayana stage cultivator! Now they were starting to regret wanting to investigate the Hu Lan Immortal Clan's background.

Who the hell could fall asleep listening to this?!

At this moment, Ma Changshou couldn't help but ask,

"Brother Lu, do you know if our Heavenly Star Sect has any hidden experts like this?"

When asked this, Lu Changfeng didn't hide anything and immediately nodded in agreement.

"Yes, there are quite a few, but are you sure you want to hear them?"

Hearing about one member of the Hu Lan Immortal Clan had already moved them so much; what if they heard about another? If the gap between the two sides wasn't too large, that would be fine, but if the gap was huge, wouldn't they be even more unable to sleep at night?

But in the end, he made a decision.

"listen!"

To put it bluntly, it's like being caught in the rain and not recommending getting caught in any more.

"Alright, all I know for now is that our Heavenly Star Sect has one cultivator at the peak of the Integration Realm. As for whether there are more, I have no idea!"

Ah!

A perfect union?

Wouldn't that mean we're only one step away from Mahayana Buddhism?

The people present immediately became excited, having initially thought that the sect might be hiding some cultivators at the peak of the Void Refinement stage.

I never expected there would be a perfect union.

Although it still can't compare to others' Mahayana perfection, the gap isn't that big after all!

Seeing the constantly changing expressions on everyone's faces, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but shake his head.

It's just the perfected Integration stage. I've already reached the first level of Void Refinement, and with my additional cultivation, I'm at the late stage of Void Refinement. Plus, with the strange phenomena and such, dealing with the remnants of the old era who are in the early stage of Integration is not a problem.

So, a fully formed fusion isn't really that strong for him!

Buzz!

As everyone was pondering, a faint buzzing sound suddenly rang out.

Upon seeing this, the crowd, who had just been frightened, immediately became alert.

"What's going on? Are we facing the enemy?"

"That's right! Even if I die today, I will never become a tool for them to threaten my master!"

"I'll fight them to the death!"

"Am I going to die today? I, Ma Changshou, will never back down!"

Seeing the four men's expressions of resignation, Lu Changfeng took out his phone and pointed.

"Don't overthink it, it's just a video call on my phone!"

The three of them blushed and sat back down, pretending that nothing had happened.

Lu Changfeng smiled and shook his head, then grabbed his phone and tossed it into the air. Ye Tian's nostrils immediately flared out.

"Hello, hello, hello, can you hear me?"

"Why is there no sound?"

"Wait a minute, I remember this phone was supposed to be able to make calls over extremely long distances within the bus station area!"

At this moment, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but cough.

"Ahem, Ye Tian, ​​we can hear you!"

As he spoke, Ye Tian waved the jade slip in his hand. Upon seeing Ma Changshou sitting next to Lu Changfeng and his three disciples, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did they realize that Ye Tian was covered in wounds, his breathing was quite unstable, and even the golden ring in the corner was broken into several pieces and had not been repaired.

"Phew, seeing Yun Gui and the others rescued makes me feel so much more relaxed! Cough cough!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yungui and the other two couldn't help but tear up.

They were already helpless, but now they're being targeted and threatened with becoming someone's master.

Their master had just returned and called without even having time to rest, which made them want to cry.

However, Lu Changfeng had it much easier.

"Yo! Ye Tian, ​​your battle this time looks pretty brutal. I didn't expect even the Golden Ring to be shattered!"

"It's definitely because you're not skilled enough."

"How about this? Learn weapon crafting from me for a while, and I'll give you a few hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones. Then call me 'Master,' and I guarantee your Vajra Ring will live up to its name!"

Seeing Lu Changfeng taking advantage of him, Ye Tian couldn't help but laugh and scold him.

"Get lost! My skills are lacking? I just didn't have the materials! Once I have the materials, I'll definitely come back and smash your dog's head in with my newly forged Vajra Ring!"

"Heh, you think a mere metal hoop can smash my head? You're not good enough, you little rascal!"

"I can't do it, you just wait!"

"Heh, I've been waiting. Come on over here!"

Seeing the master and Lu Changfeng arguing over the video, the previously somewhat sad atmosphere immediately changed.

Why do I feel inexplicably at ease?

After chatting for a while, Ye Tian finally smiled again.

"Brother Lu, thank you so much this time!"

However, Lu Changfeng just kept waving his hand.

"Hey, it's no big deal. Since you're so sincere, I'll leave the 1000 top-grade spirit stones you owe with me for now. You can pay me back when you come back!"

He hung up the phone decisively after saying that, leaving Ye Tian on the other end completely bewildered.

Good heavens, I've already incurred a debt of 1000 top-grade spirit stones?

As expected of you, my dearest friend!
