"Hmm?"
Sage Longyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the two people before him.
"Long is naturally aware of Sect Master Zhang Ling of the Hundred Flowers Sect.
"Yet this fellow daoist is quite unfamiliar.
"May I ask how to address this fellow daoist?"
Sage Longyuan showed no trace of fury; instead, he appeared rather genial.
However, those close to Sage Longyuan knew well that the more amiable he seemed, the more terrifying he truly was.
"Supreme Elder of the Hundred Flowers Sect, Lu Changsheng!"
Lu Changsheng stood with his hands clasped behind his back, paying no attention to Sage Longyuan. Instead, he looked toward Saint Spirit Palace, spotting Spirit Saint inside.
"Spirit Saint, you swore that whoever killed Longyuan would receive the secret world from you. Does that promise still hold true?"
Lu Changsheng's voice was not loud, yet it echoed clearly into Saint Spirit Palace and into the ears of all present.
"It holds! Of course it holds!"
"If you can slay Longyuan, fellow daoist, I will offer the secret world with both hands!"
A gleam of excitement flashed in Spirit Saint's eyes.
At long last, someone was willing to take action against Longyuan!
It had been so long since he swore that oath.
Yet everyone feared Longyuan, and not a single soul had dared to make a move, which had deeply disappointed Spirit Saint.
Now, an unfamiliar Earth Saint martial artist had appeared, intending to cut down Longyuan. How could Spirit Saint not be thrilled?
Hearing Lu Changsheng's inquiry, practically everyone present realized his intention.
"What? This Lu Changsheng came specifically to kill Sage Longyuan?"
"Who on earth is this Lu Changsheng? I remember the Hundred Flowers Sect was on its last breath and didn't have any Earth Saint martial artists. Where did they pop up with a Supreme Elder?"
"Indeed. The Hundred Flowers Sect does have considerable heritage as a Heavenly Saint lineage, but that was a million years ago. Today's Hundred Flowers Sect doesn't even have an Earth Saint; it's barely scraping by thanks to its mountain-protecting grand array."
"Your news is out of date! This man is named Lu Changsheng, and he truly is the Supreme Elder of the Hundred Flowers Sect! However, he became their Supreme Elder merely a few months ago."
"That's right, I know of this Lu Changsheng as well. Right after becoming the Supreme Elder of the Hundred Flowers Sect, he went on a killing spree in the Hundred Flowers Mountain Range, wiping out three saints with a single strike. His ferocious reputation was overwhelming—he is practically the same kind of person as Sage Longyuan, extraordinarily domineering!"
"Oh? Wiped out three saints with a single strike? Tell me more..."
For a moment, the crowd began inquiring about Lu Changsheng's feat of slaying three saints in one blow.
Meanwhile, the "genial" expression on Sage Longyuan's face gradually darkened.
He did not care about wiping out three saints in one strike.
What he cared about was that this Lu Changsheng before him seemed intent on standing up for Spirit Saint.
That clearly made him an enemy.
When dealing with enemies, Longyuan had never shown the slightest mercy.
"Does Fellow Daoist Lu truly intend to make an enemy of Long?" Longyuan said in a low, heavy voice.
Lu Changsheng stood with his hands behind his back, his expression placid as he spoke slowly: "Sage Longyuan, then I'll just have to borrow your head!"
"Audacious!" Sage Longyuan bellowed.
*Boom!*
A terrifying martial dao will erupted from Sage Longyuan in an instant.
Like an erupting volcano, it surged forth, sweeping across the surroundings in a flash before ultimately crashing down upon Lu Changsheng.
Yet Lu Changsheng remained standing with his hands behind his back.
Like a reef amidst ocean waves, no matter how violently the sea pounded against it, he stood completely unshaken.
However, under the sweeping wave of martial dao will, the surrounding crowd retreated in rapid haste.
Being enveloped by such martial dao will was utterly unbearable.
Even Sage Longyuan's companions hurriedly backed away.
When dealing with an enemy, Sage Longyuan never needed allies to gang up on them; he alone was enough.
Moreover, if this opponent truly stood on the same level as Sage Longyuan, they wouldn't be of any help anyway.
"Oh?"
"This martial dao will... is truly domineering!"
Lu Changsheng carefully perceived Sage Longyuan's martial dao will.
Even he found it intriguing.
He sensed a disposition of supreme dominance—revering oneself alone above all under heaven—within this martial dao will.
It was a very extreme kind of martial dao will.
As was widely known, the more extreme a martial dao was, the more formidable it appeared when unleashed.
This will of supreme dominance made Sage Longyuan practically matchless among those of the same realm.
Whenever he encountered an opponent, a single press of his martial dao will would suppress them, preventing them from unleashing their full strength.
*Boom!*
The next moment, the martial dao will on Lu Changsheng erupted as well.
His martial dao will was the "Infinite Martial Dao."
Its core lay in the martial conception of "infinity."
No matter what martial dao the opponent wielded, so what?
All was encompassed within the "infinite."
At this moment, the two invisible martial dao wills clashed in the void, faintly seeming to transform from the intangible into the tangible.
Many martial artists in the surroundings felt as if Mount Tai were pressing down upon them or the heavens and earth were overturning from mere contact with the periphery. It was thoroughly excruciating.
Even the Earth Saints among them felt this way.
After all, a vast disparity existed between different Earth Saints.
For instance, top Earth Saints like Sage Longyuan and Lu Changsheng could utterly crush other Earth Saints just the same.
Slaying an ordinary Earth Saint was as effortless as slaying a Human Saint.
A mere clash of martial dao wills between the two had already reached such a terrifying degree.
"What a horrifying martial dao will! This is a true top Earth Saint!"
"Who could have thought that in Saint Star City, there would be an Earth Saint capable of contending with Sage Longyuan? Especially in martial dao will—Sage Longyuan's martial dao will has always swept away all opposition, practically undefeated. But right now, his will doesn't seem to have gained any advantage at all."
"More than just failing to gain an advantage! He is already at a disadvantage, and it is rapidly collapsing. Just what kind of embryonic martial dao is Lu Changsheng's martial dao will? How can it be so terrifying that it crushes Sage Longyuan's will?"
"Incredible! In this clash of martial dao wills, Sage Longyuan has lost..."
Many people discovered to their shock that the clash, which had seemed evenly matched just moments before, shifted abruptly.
Sage Longyuan's martial dao will was falling back at every step, collapsing completely.
"Die!"
Sage Longyuan's face twisted in alarm.
Hardly pausing to think, his Dao body sprang into motion, hurling a fist toward Lu Changsheng.
Although it was a punch thrown across empty space, the surrounding void was compressed under its weight. Lu Changsheng felt as if he were facing a terrifying tidal wave, poised to be crushed to powder at any second.
Facing an Earth Saint directly for the first time, even Lu Changsheng felt a faint hint of threat.
Yet it was merely that.
A faint hint of threat was like a tiny flicker of flame; to pose a genuine danger to Lu Changsheng, this much power was far from enough.
*Buzz.*
Lu Changsheng manifested his Dao body as well.
Then, he overturned both palms.
"Heaven."
"Overturning."
"Seal."
Lu Changsheng enunciated each word.
With his words, the hands of his Dao body struck forward.
This palm strike felt as though it clamped the heavens and earth within its grasp.
This palm strike seemed to upend the celestial river.
Even the onlookers felt their senses warp, gripped by an overwhelming sensation of the world turning upside down.
It was as if heaven and earth had truly inverted.
*Rumble!*
At last, Lu Changsheng's Dao body violently collided with Sage Longyuan's Dao body.
In a clash of saint bodies, strength was strength, and weakness was weakness; there was no room for fancy tricks.
Lu Changsheng had not even had time to suppress Sage Longyuan with his martial dao will.
Yet it did not matter.
In a direct clash of Dao bodies, Lu Changsheng had never harbored the slightest fear.
"Ah..."
Sage Longyuan let out a bloodcurdling scream.
With just a single exchange, everyone saw with absolute clarity that Lu Changsheng's saint body shattered Sage Longyuan's attack like dry weeds.
Furthermore, that palm strike capable of upending the stars and inverting the heavens slammed squarely onto Sage Longyuan's Dao body.
The result was that Sage Longyuan shrieked as his Dao body instantly collapsed.
In merely a single breath, Sage Longyuan's Dao body cracked inch by inch, disintegrating into fine powder.
Dead!
Sage Longyuan, whose ferocious name had terrorized the vicinity of Saint Star City, was dead just like that.
A single strike!
With only a single strike!
Lu Changsheng had beaten Sage Longyuan to death.
At this moment, everyone near Saint Spirit Palace fell silent.
The entire expanse of void sank into a dead stillness.
Only after a long while did people seem to regain their senses.
"Sage Longyuan... just died like that?"
"This... was simply too fragile!"
"Sage Longyuan wasn't fragile. If he were, would all those Earth Saint experts he slaughtered be even more fragile?"
"It's just that this Lu Changsheng is far too powerful! Powerful enough to kill Sage Longyuan in an instant! Is Lu Changsheng truly not a Heavenly Saint?"
"He hasn't manifested a full Martial Dao, so he is indeed merely an Earth Saint. But Lu Changsheng's martial dao will is too horrifying, and his Dao body's strength is beyond imagination."
"An Earth Saint whose martial dao will and Dao body are both formidable to such an extent is virtually unheard of in this world."
Everyone was thoroughly shaken.
Whether Martial Saints or Earth Saints, seeing even Sage Longyuan get killed in an instant made them realize that Lu Changsheng carried unimaginable weight.
If even a top Earth Saint like Sage Longyuan could be slain in a single blow, just how powerful was Lu Changsheng?
Looking at Sage Longyuan blown apart in the void, Lu Changsheng appeared exceedingly calm.
He knew very well that the strength of an Earth Saint rested primarily on two pillars: martial dao will and Dao body strength.
Lu Changsheng's Dao body possessed an incomparably solid foundation. From the Body Tempering Realm onward, he had advanced step by step to this day, relying on countless accumulations to forge such a mighty Dao body.
He believed that Earth Saints with Dao bodies stronger than his were exceedingly few.
Then came the martial dao will.
The strength of a martial dao will stemmed from the Martial Dao an Earth Saint condensed.
And what Lu Changsheng condensed was the "Infinite Martial Dao."
This was claimed to encompass all martial daos.
It possessed no limit, so how could its martial dao will be weak?
Never mind one Longyuan; even if ten more Longyuans came, the outcome would not change in the slightest.
At most, it would merely be a question of whether Lu Changsheng needed two palms or three.
Lu Changsheng turned his gaze toward Saint Spirit Palace.
"Spirit Saint, may Lu enter Saint Spirit Palace for a conversation now?" Lu Changsheng inquired slowly in a tranquil tone.
Spirit Saint was slightly startled.
"You may! Of course you may!"
"All of Saint Spirit Palace welcomes the esteemed arrival of the Hundred Flowers Sect's Supreme Elder!"
With that, Spirit Saint waved his hand, opening the mountain-protecting grand array.
Without hesitation, Lu Changsheng led Zhang Ling forward and stepped directly into Saint Spirit Palace.
Inside Saint Spirit Palace, Spirit Saint possessed a remarkably handsome appearance.
Unfortunately, he seemed injured.
The injury lay in his spirit, requiring a long period of convalescence to recover.
It had likely been inflicted by Sage Longyuan's martial dao will.
If an opponent could not endure the martial dao will of a top Earth Saint, it was very likely to wound the spirit.
A smile appeared on Spirit Saint's face.
Longyuan was finally dead, which meant the great vengeance for his Dao companion was avenged. How could he not be joyful?
"Fellow Daoist Lu, Sect Master Zhang, please enter the main hall for a discussion."
The group went straight into the main hall.
Spirit Saint also knew Lu Changsheng's goal, so he stated straightforwardly: "Fellow Daoist Lu, please look. These are the coordinates to the secret world I acquired.
"That world possesses a rather high energy-level reaction, but it will still take at least three months to draw near our Immortal Martial World before descent is possible.
"During these three months, Fellow Daoist Lu may make thorough preparations as well."
Lu Changsheng received the secret world coordinates.
He could not verify them right now.
However, Spirit Saint had certainly verified them already.
"May I ask, Fellow Daoist Spirit Saint, does anyone else know the coordinates to this secret world?" Lu Changsheng asked again.
"Only I know them, and I do not intend to enter this secret world, so Fellow Daoist Lu need not worry about others competing with you for it."
Spirit Saint knew what Lu Changsheng was concerned about.
As long as one knew the coordinates to a secret world and made brief preparations, entering was entirely possible.
Anyone could enter.
Naturally, Lu Changsheng was not afraid of competition, but if multiple people entered a secret world, unpredictable variables would arise.
"That is good. I must ask Fellow Daoist Spirit Saint not to disclose these coordinates to a third party; otherwise, when Lu enters the secret world, I might not successfully condense a martial dao," Lu Changsheng warned.
He did not wish to see Spirit Saint selling or gifting the secret world coordinates all over the place.
Spirit Saint nodded naturally.
The fewer people who knew the secret world coordinates, the better.
Now that he had given them to Lu Changsheng, Spirit Saint would not leak them further.
Otherwise, he would thoroughly offend Lu Changsheng.
"Lu offers his thanks to Fellow Daoist Spirit Saint."
"It is I who should thank Fellow Daoist Lu for helping me slay Longyuan to comfort the spirit of my Dao companion in heaven!"
One could tell Spirit Saint was a devoted person; the death of his Dao companion had dealt him a heavy blow.
Since the secret world coordinates were in hand, Lu Changsheng had no wish to linger, so he bid farewell and took his leave.
After Lu Changsheng and Zhang Ling returned to the Hundred Flowers Sect, Lu Changsheng tried to sense the secret world based on the coordinates himself.
The result was nothing.
To sense a secret world, one had to rely on a spatial array.
Yet the Hundred Flowers Sect possessed no spatial array.
Lu Changsheng did not know how to set one up either.
However, it did not matter. Going to the Secret World Tower offered a complete one-stop service.
As long as one was willing to spend money, bringing one's own "secret world" was fine; the Secret World Tower could prepare everything properly.
Furthermore, entering a secret world from within the Secret World Tower was exceptionally safe, with no need to worry about unexpected accidents.
It was merely very expensive.
Yet now that Lu Changsheng was the Supreme Elder of the Hundred Flowers Sect and possessed several hundred deity fragments, why would he fear the high prices of the Secret World Tower?
Thus, Lu Changsheng made a trip to the Secret World Tower.
According to the tests conducted by the Secret World Tower, this secret world was indeed still some distance away from the Immortal Martial World.
To truly enter it, he would still have to wait three months.
So Lu Changsheng returned to the Hundred Flowers Sect and waited quietly for three months.
When roughly three months had passed, Lu Changsheng set out early from the Hundred Flowers Sect.
He went straight to the Secret World Tower.
Spending a full five deity fragments, he took up residence in a private chamber of the Secret World Tower.
Inside the cultivation chamber, every necessity was provided.
Arrays, restorative spirit elixirs, and curiosities or formations ensuring the safety of the physical body and consciousness were all properly prepared.
Charging five deity fragments was indeed somewhat pricey, but Lu Changsheng felt it was well worth it.
Next was the wait!
Once the secret world drew close to the Immortal Martial World, Lu Changsheng would be able to pass directly into it via the specialized spatial array of the Secret World Tower.
This was Lu Changsheng's second secret realm, and its energy-level reaction was comparable to a Martial Saint!
Therefore, the difficulty of this secret world would definitely be greater.
Of course, if he succeeded, the harvest would also be tremendous!
The days slipped by.
Finally, after Lu Changsheng waited another ten-odd days, the spatial array inside the chamber reacted at last.
At this moment, the secret world had approached the Immortal Martial World and was already within the "traversal range" of the spatial array.
Lu Changsheng could now directly project his consciousness into the secret world.
"According to the calculations of the Secret World Tower, this secret world will take roughly ten years to fully intersect and touch the Immortal Martial World.
"In other words, I have ten years within the secret world to condense a martial dao. Once condensed, my true body can project power into the secret world to help me shatter the martial dao, thereby obtaining martial dao fragments."
Lu Changsheng took a deep breath.
The last time he entered a secret world, he had only three years.
This time, he had a full ten years.
Naturally, the more time he had, the more thoroughly Lu Changsheng could prepare.
"Let us begin."
Lu Changsheng then closed his eyes.
*Buzz.*
The next instant, Lu Changsheng activated the array in the chamber.
With the array's activation, his consciousness flew instantly into the secret world.
...
In Gushan City, the Gao residence was holding a funeral. White-haired elders were sending off a black-haired youth, casting a heavy, suffocating atmosphere over the entire manor.
The deceased was Gao Wen, the young master of the Gao family and an only son across three generations.
It was said that Gao Wen had seen a demon.
He had been scared to death by a demon.
At this moment, a coffin rested in the mourning hall of the Gao family.
Inside lay Gao Wen's corpse.
Incense smoke curled through the hall. Master Gao and his wife trembled as they looked upon the coffin, their eyes long since swollen from weeping.
An only son for three generations.
Now that Gao Wen was dead, the Gao family line was severed!
Who would inherit their immense wealth?
At this thought, Master Gao felt anguish beyond endurance, wishing with all his heart that it was he lying in the coffin rather than his son, Gao Wen.
"It's all because of that demon! If he hadn't seen a demon, how could Gao Wen have been frightened to death?"
Master Gao ground his teeth, his heart burning with boundless hatred for demons.
Yet the Gao family lacked the power to eradicate demons.
Gao Wen had simply died in vain.
*Whoosh...*
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept through the mourning hall.
Amidst the swirling smoke, people could barely keep their eyes open.
Abruptly, Gao Wen inside the coffin snapped his eyes open.
"Am I... descended?"
"A corpse, dead not long ago, still lying in a coffin?"
Lu Changsheng murmured to himself.
Having just descended into the secret world, he felt slightly uncomfortable, but having had prior experience, he quickly regained his bearings.
*Swish.*
Lu Changsheng sat upright in the coffin.
Through the swirling smoke, Lu Changsheng seemed to glimpse terror-stricken eyes down in the mourning hall.
"Ah..."
"The young master's corpse has reanimated..."
Instantly, the mourning hall was filled with panicked shrieks.
Three shichen later, a physician took Gao Wen's pulse.
"Bizarre, truly bizarre. His pulse is vigorous and powerful, with nothing amiss.
"Yet a few days ago, I personally felt Young Master Gao's pulse, and it was entirely gone.
"Could it be the state of 'suspended animation' recorded in medical texts?"
The physician shook his head, his brow tightly furrowed.
This provided Lu Changsheng with a ready-made excuse.
Suspended animation!
Nothing made for a better excuse than this.
A frail scholar had seen a "demon" and been frightened into suspended animation—wasn't that perfectly normal?
At any rate, that was how the physician explained it to Master Gao.
And Master Gao believed it.
Whether it was suspended animation or not, his son wasn't dead, and that was all that mattered!
Inside the room, Master Gao and his wife offered comfort to "Gao Wen" before leaving him to rest.
Soon, only "Gao Wen" remained alone in the room.
"I am Lu Changsheng, occupying the magpie's nest as Gao Wen.
"Gao Wen is me, and Lu Changsheng is also me."
Inside the room, thoughts flickered through Lu Changsheng's mind.
He threw back the quilt and sat up from the bed.
For three shichen, he had cooperated fully with the Gao family.
Now, he needed to properly sort through his memories.
From the memories, he learned that this world remained in the stage of a feudal dynasty.
The dynasty had been embroiled in continuous warfare for years, and the common folk were impoverished and exhausted, displaying the classic signs of a dynasty in its twilight years.
He was currently in Gushan City of the Jing Dynasty.
However, despite being a feudal dynasty, the nature of this world was somewhat eerie.
For there existed supernatural power in this world.
That supernatural power belonged to demons!
Demons possessed all manner of incredible power.
No one knew when demons had first emerged.
Yet their history appeared even older than that of humanity.
Demons were almost unkillable.
Only a demon could kill a demon!
Otherwise, whether by blade, fire, drowning, or poison, a demon could not be slain.
Demons fed on humans.
Within humans existed a certain spirituality.
By consuming humans, demons could maintain or even augment their spirituality.
Otherwise, demons would gradually degenerate into beasts, devoid of spirituality and intellect.
Thus, demons and humans were natural adversaries.
It was said that in ancient times, demons hunted and reared humans like livestock, and humanity was utterly powerless to resist.
Later, however, humanity discovered a method: mating with demons to bear offspring.
Most demons had reproductive isolation from humans and could not bear children together.
Yet a tiny minority of demons could mate with humans and produce offspring.
Those born of such unions were called half-demons.
Half-demons possessed all the abilities of demons, and thus they could kill demons and fight against them.
However, possessing both human and demon blood, half-demons also possessed both humanity and demonic nature.
When demonic nature suppressed humanity, a half-demon became a true demon, needing to feed on humans to survive.
But if humanity suppressed demonic nature, the half-demon remained human, aiding humanity in combating and slaying true demons.
In ancient times, humans had tried every means to mate with true demons, eventually giving birth to the first half-demon.
It was that half-demon who sheltered a portion of humanity.
Then came a second, a third, and eventually countless half-demons.
From then on, humanity could contest against true demons without being hunted or reared like cattle.
Yet in the overarching situation, true demons still held an overwhelming advantage.
Many dynasties and kingdoms were demon nations.
Within those demon nations, true demons reared humans as food.
As for the Jing Dynasty where Lu Changsheng resided, it was one of the few human-dominated dynasties.
And the reason "Gao Wen," an ordinary merchant's son, knew all this in such detail was very simple: news of half-demons and true demons was common knowledge, not a secret at all.
"This world is truly dangerous.
"Demons appear from time to time. And whenever a demon appears, it inevitably devours humans.
"And 'Gao Wen' seemed to have encountered a true demon. Though he was fortunate enough not to be eaten, he was frightened to death on the spot..."
Lu Changsheng muttered in a low voice.
"Gao Wen" had been too timid.
Being scared to death by a true demon had ended up benefiting Lu Changsheng.
"This world has martial artists, but they haven't condensed a martial dao.
"The reason is simple: martial artists cannot step into the transcendent realm."
A sharp light flashed in Lu Changsheng's eyes.
Many worlds had martial artists, but worlds where a martial dao could be condensed were exceptionally rare.
The reason lay in the "transcendent realm."
In many worlds, martial artists simply could not step into the transcendent realm.
Just like Lu Changsheng in the previous secret world.
Even though he had created the Limit Martial Dao style and achieved the limit of secondary growth, he still could not step into the transcendent realm.
Only by reaching tertiary growth could one step into transcendence.
And to attain tertiary growth without an Earth Saint like Lu Changsheng providing guidance from a towering vantage point, successfully breaking through the human body's limits was practically impossible.
"This world is not simple at all; its energy-level reaction is at the level of a Martial Saint or Nascent Soul.
"Which means the pinnacle true demons of this world are at the Nascent Soul and Martial Saint tier?
"Even if my Limit Martial Dao reaches quaternary growth, it won't be able to contend with the pinnacle true demons here."
Lu Changsheng furrowed his brow slightly.
Moreover, that was only one of the difficulties in this world.
There was an even greater problem.
Even if he stepped into the transcendent realm through Limit Martial Dao, could he actually kill a true demon?
That was far from certain.
Only a demon could kill a demon.
Otherwise, no matter how immense one's strength was, it would be useless.
Lu Changsheng's Limit Martial Dao might need some adjustments; otherwise, it might not truly adapt to this world.
"Regardless, I must pick up the Limit Martial Dao again to enhance my own strength. Even if I cannot kill demons, it will bolster my ability to protect myself, ensuring I won't be helpless when facing a demon."
After thinking it over, Lu Changsheng quickly formulated a plan.
Limit Martial Dao!
He still had to cultivate Limit Martial Dao first to elevate his physical body.
After all, Limit Martial Dao was the most fundamental enhancement of the flesh.
In most worlds, so long as the world's rules were not extraordinarily bizarre, Limit Martial Dao could be cultivated.
Thus, Lu Changsheng began cultivating Limit Martial Dao anew.
Using the Gao family's wealth, he gathered various potent tonics to rapidly advance his Limit Martial Dao.
Perhaps due to the presence of supernatural power or true demons, the variety of potent tonics in this world far surpassed that of the previous secret world.
It greatly exceeded Lu Changsheng's expectations.
Consequently, with the aid of these tonics, Lu Changsheng's cultivation of Limit Martial Dao progressed by leaps and bounds, moving forward with utmost smoothness.
Six months later, Lu Changsheng summoned his attribute panel.
Host: Lu Changsheng
Limit Martial Dao: Secondary Growth (99%)
"The limit of secondary growth.
"Beyond this lies breaking the human limit to step into the transcendent realm!"
A sharp light flashed in Lu Changsheng's eyes.
After a full six months of cultivation, his progress had naturally been much faster than in the previous world.
Yet Lu Changsheng did not intend to break into the transcendent realm immediately.
Secondary growth was the limit of ordinary humans.
As long as one did not step into the transcendent realm, one remained an ordinary human.
However, this world possessed no electricity.
Could Lu Changsheng draw down lightning from the heavens to step into transcendence?
Impossible!
If he truly drew down heavenly lightning, he would likely be struck dead.
Therefore, to step into the transcendent realm, he had to seek out the unique power of this world.
What was the unique supernatural power of this world?
Demons, of course!
"Six months have passed. It is time to properly study true demons.
"It seems I must 'see a demon' once more.
"Where can I find a true demon, though?"
A figure gradually surfaced in Lu Changsheng's mind.
