Sweeping Through the Dao Transformation Battlefield! Goal: Master of Ten Thousand Daos!

These three were Heavenly Saints from the three pinnacle martial sacred grounds. Their status was transcendent. They did not even converse with the other Heavenly Saints, communicating only among themselves. One glance was enough to see that they stood utterly apart from the other martial sacred grounds. And in truth, that was indeed the case. Though twenty-one sects were called pinnacle martial sacred grounds, what was the actual reality? The three sacred grounds held a truly transcendent status. The other eighteen could not be mentioned in the same breath. "Brother Yuan Chang, does such fine jade not tempt you in the slightest?" The Heavenly Saint addressed as Yuan Chang shook his head slightly. "Setting foot on the thirty-fourth floor of the Ascending Heaven Tower is indeed quite decent. In terms of physical body, he likely holds an advantage over other Earth Saint martial artists—perhaps he was born with exceptional talent. "Yet relying solely on a physical body will not suffice. To achieve the realm of Martial Dao Sovereign, one must be formidable in every single aspect before there is even a sliver of possibility. Over the ages, even among the martial artists we painstakingly handpicked into our sects, how many ever attained Martial Dao Sovereign? They can be counted on one hand." This Heavenly Saint, Yuan Chang, clearly possessed exceptionally high standards. Even with Lu Changsheng performing this brilliantly, he still seemed rather dismissive. "Fair point. He did take advantage of the Ascending Heaven Tower." "He is merely a Master of a Hundred Daos, after all. We shall see once he becomes a Master of a Thousand Daos." "Indeed. Only a Master of a Thousand Daos is qualified to be chosen by our three factions. Even if he possesses extraordinary talent, if he falls short in other areas, he naturally will not catch our eyes..." "Wait, he has reached the thirty-fifth floor!" In an instant, the expressions of all three stiffened. *Whoosh.* Their eyes snapped open. The thirty-fifth floor! The thirty-fifth floor of the Ascending Heaven Tower! The significance of this floor was extraordinary. After all, the thirty-fifth floor represented a physical body at the level of a Martial Saint. What did it mean for a body to rival a Martial Saint's? Once his other aspects caught up, Lu Changsheng would be qualified to unify the true self and attain Martial Dao Sovereign. Though it was merely a hope, those who possessed even this glimmer of hope could be counted on one hand. "Uh... Our Gufu Sacred Ground has not recruited a martial artist from the Dao Transformation Battlefield in three thousand years. This Lu Changsheng possesses some talent in the physical body, so even if other areas prove unsatisfactory, he can likely still be nurtured to some degree. Why don't you two yield him to me?" "Heh, your Gufu Sacred Ground hasn't recruited anyone from the Dao Transformation Battlefield in three thousand years, but has our Wanfa Sacred Ground? Although this Lu Changsheng is not peerlessly gifted, he indeed has value worth cultivating. Our Wanfa Sacred Ground wants him as well." One was Gufu Sacred Ground, one was Wanfa Sacred Ground, and the third, Jidao Sacred Ground, had yet to state its position. These were the three supreme pinnacle sacred grounds of the Immortal Martial World. Their status was transcendent. Once they set their eyes on a genius, the other eighteen pinnacle martial sacred grounds essentially had no choice but to step aside. "No need to argue. This Lu Changsheng—my Jidao Sacred Ground claims him!" At that moment, the Heavenly Saint from Jidao Sacred Ground, who had remained silent all along, spoke in a tone decisive and resolute. "Hmm?" "The thirty-sixth floor?" "Ascending Heaven's thirty-sixth floor! Good heavens, even Jidao Sacred Ground is moved." "Could he actually clear the thirty-sixth floor as well?" "He cleared it... Heavens, he really cleared the thirty-sixth floor!" "Ascending Heaven's thirty-sixth floor! Unbelievable! How is that possible? Can his physical body already rival an Earth Saint's right now?" "Snatch him! We must claim this person!" "Snatch him with what? Look at those three factions—their eyes are practically red with greed. Does it still fall to us?" The Heavenly Saints of the eighteen pinnacle martial sacred grounds turned their gazes toward the three supreme sacred grounds. In the past, the three supreme sacred grounds would take their pick of the most outstanding martial artists, leaving the rest for the eighteen to divide among themselves. Yet historically, those three supreme sacred grounds had been exceedingly reserved. Furthermore, thousands of years had passed since they had last recruited anyone from the Dao Transformation Battlefield. And now? "Hahaha... Such a talent rightfully belongs to my Gufu Sacred Ground!" "Is that so? My Wanfa Sacred Ground has waited thousands of years for such a fine piece of jade. How could we possibly concede him to Gufu Sacred Ground?" "Hmph, since everyone wants to fight over him, let us step down and settle it with a contest. The two of you can come at me together—let us see whether your two sects are stronger, or my Jidao Sacred Ground!" All three supreme sacred grounds had been immensely 'reserved' just moments earlier. They had claimed his talent was lacking and that relying solely on a physical body would not do. Yet look at them now! Every one of them was practically ready to roll up their sleeves and trade blows in person. A martial artist whose mortal flesh rivaled an Earth Saint would see his probability of achieving Martial Dao Sovereign soar dramatically in the future. Even if it was not guaranteed, there was indeed a tremendous chance of him becoming a Martial Dao Sovereign. Which faction would not fight tooth and nail for such a person? Even the three supreme sacred grounds could not remain detached. "Stop." "There is no need for us to quarrel. Let us wait until the Dao Transformation Battlefield concludes to make our final decisions." "What if he dies in the Dao Transformation Battlefield? While the possibility is small, anything can happen in the battlefield." "Once the Dao Transformation Battlefield ends, if everyone still wants this Lu Changsheng, we shall follow the old rules: each of us will lay out our terms and leave the choice entirely to Lu Changsheng himself. How about it?" At last, the three supreme sacred grounds reached a consensus. The remaining eighteen sacred grounds could only watch with envious eyes. They naturally wanted Lu Changsheng, but with the three supreme sacred grounds having staked their claim, what else could they do? They had no choice but to give up. Even so, they continued to follow Lu Changsheng closely. In fact, all twenty-one pinnacle martial sacred grounds were watching him intently. They wanted to see just how far Lu Changsheng, having conquered the thirty-sixth floor of Ascending Heaven, could truly go. *** "Thirty-six floors..." Lu Changsheng closed his eyes. He quietly experienced the 'authority' granted to him after scaling the thirty-sixth floor. Yes, 'authority.' Lu Changsheng now understood that the entire Dao Transformation Battlefield was, in reality, a world. Yet it was a world contained within a spirit treasure. This spirit treasure was extraordinarily terrifying, housing an autonomous world inside itself. The spirit treasure governed everything. Or rather, the spirit treasure was the heaven and earth of this world. Since all Earth Saints were inside the spirit treasure, after reaching the thirty-sixth floor of Ascending Heaven, Lu Changsheng had been granted the 'viewing authority' of this spirit treasure. He could perceive any Earth Saint. Furthermore, he could directly 'shift' to any location within this spirit treasure world. This meant that within the Dao Transformation Battlefield, Lu Changsheng no longer needed to worry about failing to locate other Earth Saints. He could hunt them down one by one, executing targeted purges. Of course, the prerequisite was that he possessed the strength to back it up. If he ran into someone too tough to handle, shifting over like this would be nothing short of courting death. "Time to head out." Now that Lu Changsheng had cleared all thirty-six floors, remaining inside the Ascending Heaven Tower served no further purpose. With a flicker of his figure, he vanished. In an instant, he shifted out of the Ascending Heaven Tower. It was virtually indistinguishable from instantaneous teleportation. In fact, within the Dao Transformation Battlefield, Lu Changsheng essentially possessed the power to teleport at will. At that moment, outside the Ascending Heaven Tower, the group of Daoist priests from the Ascending Heaven Temple stared dumbfoundedly at the tower before them. They had witnessed Lu Changsheng's entry into the tower from start to finish. Yet what had they just seen? "He... he succeeded in ascending heaven?" "Thirty-six floors! He cleared all thirty-six floors of Ascending Heaven—the first in all of history!" "No one has ever managed thirty-six floors of Ascending Heaven. How did he do it?" "This man is destined to shine brilliantly across the mortal world. Perhaps the entire world will change..." The Daoists were shaken to their core. They understood all too well what this meant. A terrifyingly powerful figure who had cleared thirty-six floors of Ascending Heaven would whip up terrifying, tempestuous waves across this world. *Whoosh.* Just then, Lu Changsheng traversed space in an instant from the Ascending Heaven Tower, appearing right before the group of Daoists. The Daoists jumped in fright. Nevertheless, one of them respectfully stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Layman Lu. To conquer thirty-six floors of Ascending Heaven makes you the first in all of history!" The Daoists were utterly deferential. After all, Lu Changsheng was the first throughout the ages; even catching a glimpse of such a figure was a tremendous honor. "Not bad. You Daoists have pleased me well," Lu Changsheng said. "I am in high spirits today, so I shall bestow a stroke of fortune upon you. "How far you can go will depend on yourself." Lu Changsheng did not mind granting these Daoists an opportunity. After all, he was genuinely pleased right now. *Swoosh.* With a flick of Lu Changsheng's finger, a drop of ancestral blood vanished instantly into the Daoist's glabella. The Daoist let out a wretched scream and rolled uncontrollably across the ground. Leaving behind a fragment of memory regarding the Flesh Martial Dao, Lu Changsheng drifted away. As for how far these Daoists could advance after receiving this drop of ancestral blood, Lu Changsheng did not particularly care. He held only one goal right now. To plunder martial daos! And strive to become a Master of Ten Thousand Daos! Lu Changsheng extended his senses slightly. "So many Earth Saints are gathered here. Are they fighting over something?" "This will do..." With a flicker of his figure, Lu Changsheng vanished without a trace. *** Beneath a towering mountain peak, several dozen martial artists at Earth Saint perfection were locked in slaughter. In truth, as time went by, the Dao Transformation Battlefield had entered a new phase. Many martial artists at Earth Saint perfection, recognizing that they stood little chance of reaching the top hundred on their own, had chosen to join forces. Consequently, teams of various sizes had formed. The larger groups numbered in the hundreds! The smaller ones had at least several members. Whenever groups of hundreds encountered solitary Earth Saints, they immediately swarmed to surround and kill them. Relying on sheer numbers, they would cut down their quarry, and as for who claimed the martial dao, that came down to each individual's means. The weak banded together in droves, but for the truly strong, the impact was minimal. The strong continued to come and go alone. If they ran into a group that was too overwhelmingly large, they could simply choose to avoid the brunt of the assault. Right now, however, two teams of roughly equal size had crossed paths, resulting in a frenzied clash. The entire mountain shook. Up in the sky, Earth Saints fought frantically, blacking out the sun and moon as if the heavens themselves were about to collapse. Yet despite the deafening spectacle, very few Earth Saints actually perished. After all, their strengths were fairly comparable, all falling within the ordinary tier of Earth Saint perfection, and neither side held a decisive advantage. In a state of evenly matched equilibrium, casualties were surprisingly rare. *Whoosh.* At that moment, the void warped. Immediately after, an unfamiliar figure materialized. "Hmm?" "Who is he?" "How did he appear?" "I sensed nothing. Was he hidden before?" Many Earth Saints noticed the figure emerging from the void. Even so, they merely spared him a cursory glance without paying much mind. With several dozen martial artists at Earth Saint perfection engaged in a life-and-death struggle, who had the leisure to dwell on a newly arrived, unfamiliar Earth Saint? Lu Changsheng had teleported here straight from the Ascending Heaven Temple. He cast his eyes over the scene. Quite a crowd, and all Earth Saints. This brought a burst of joy to Lu Changsheng's heart. With so many Earth Saints present, he could not afford to let them slip away. Still, retaining every single one of them would not be easy. Yet Lu Changsheng was no longer who he once was; he was already a Master of a Hundred Daos. The sheer extent of his strength was unfathomably terrifying. What was more, Lu Changsheng had no intention of holding back. *Boom.* In the next instant, Lu Changsheng manifested his Earth Saint Dao body. Having fused 128 martial daos, his Earth Saint Dao body had grown even more formidable. Yet this was merely the beginning. The flesh and blood throughout Lu Changsheng's body began to merge with his Earth Saint Dao body. "Phenomenal Image of Heaven and Earth!" Facing several dozen martial artists at Earth Saint perfection, Lu Changsheng dared not show the slightest carelessness. Only by unleashing every method and ounce of power at his disposal could he hope to keep all these Earth Saints from escaping. Thus, he immediately executed the Phenomenal Image of Heaven and Earth. The moment the Phenomenal Image appeared, it instantly grew three heads and six arms. Furthermore, the aura it radiated was earth-shattering. Without distinguishing friend from foe, a colossal hand swept out to swat down at all the Earth Saints at once. "What?" "This momentum... over a hundred martial daos?" "That is... the Master of a Hundred Daos?" "Right now, across the entire Dao Transformation Battlefield, there is only one Master of a Hundred Daos—the one currently ranked first, Lu Changsheng!" "He is Lu Changsheng?" "Run! The Master of a Hundred Daos is here, get out of here quickly!" None of these Earth Saints were fools. Sensing Lu Changsheng's aura, they deduced his identity in an instant. That was a Master of a Hundred Daos! Regardless of what method Lu Changsheng had used to obtain a hundred martial daos and drop out of nowhere into first place on the leaderboard, a monumental figure ranked first was definitely not someone they could afford to provoke. Consequently, the several dozen Earth Saints did not muster the slightest will to fight, fleeing in absolute frenzy. Yet how swift was Lu Changsheng's speed? Especially now that he was employing the Phenomenal Image of Heaven and Earth. A colossal palm came crashing down. *Rumble!* On the spot, an Earth Saint perfection martial artist was slapped into a mist of blood. So-called Earth Saint perfection martial artists were utterly fragile before Lu Changsheng's Phenomenal Image of Heaven and Earth. It was as effortless as crushing ants. In the span of a breath, over ten Earth Saints had been struck dead. Lu Changsheng did not even have time to plunder their martial daos. Instead, he struck out with palm after palm, dispatching them as casually as swatting flies. Not a single Earth Saint could withstand a single blow from him. This sight shook the frantically fleeing Earth Saints to their cores, their faces pale with terror. "How is he this strong? Are all Masters of a Hundred Daos this terrifying?" "Is this the Master of a Hundred Daos? If even a Master of a Hundred Daos is this formidable, just how horrifying would a Master of a Thousand Daos be?" "I once witnessed a Heavenly Saint take action. This display of might wouldn't be out of place for a Heavenly Saint! How can an Earth Saint be strong to such a degree?" "Even if we joined forces, we would merely be mantises trying to stop a chariot. We can't even take a single blow from Lu Changsheng!" "Flee! Run for your lives!" These Earth Saints were scared out of their wits. They were genuinely terrified. Originally, they were all at the Earth Saint perfection realm. Reason dictated that even if there were disparities in strength, the gap should not be insurmountably wide. Yet here was Lu Changsheng, blasting apart Earth Saint perfection martial artists one after another as if crushing helpless insects. A chill ran through their hearts. Such a being was beyond provocation. To an Earth Saint, how was someone this powerful any different from a Heavenly Saint? Lu Changsheng's outburst with the Phenomenal Image of Heaven and Earth had merely obliterated a little over twenty Earth Saints. The others had fled far too quickly. A trace of regret crossed Lu Changsheng's face. Still, there was no rush. He would fuse the martial daos of these twenty-odd Earth Saints first before resuming the hunt. He possessed the ability to teleport within the Dao Transformation Battlefield. He could also lock directly onto specific Earth Saints. Who could possibly escape his grasp? Looking at the martial daos permeating the void, alongside the thick stench of blood hanging in the air, Lu Changsheng did not hold back in the slightest. "Devour!" Instantly, the Infinite Martial Dao swept through like a violent gale clearing away clouds, swallowing the martial daos one by one before assimilating them completely into its own foundation. This scene was naturally witnessed in full clarity by the Heavenly Saints of the twenty-one pinnacle martial sacred grounds. Their hearts trembled as well. Even with the discerning eyes of Heavenly Saints, they could perceive the extraordinary nature of Lu Changsheng's Phenomenal Image of Heaven and Earth. "Splendid! What a magnificent Phenomenal Image of Heaven and Earth!" "Previously, I thought his comprehension was sufficient and his physical body strong enough, but that his combat prowess might not be overwhelming enough to make him a Master of a Thousand Daos. Looking at it now, we worried unnecessarily and underestimated Lu Changsheng." "If I am not mistaken, this Phenomenal Image of Heaven and Earth merges his mortal flesh with his Earth Saint Dao body, triggering a certain transformation. That transformation actually bears some resemblance to a Martial Dao Sovereign." "Indeed. A Martial Dao Sovereign unifies the true self, fusing everything to unleash an unimaginable, terrifying might. Lu Changsheng's physical body is exceptionally potent, rivaling an Earth Saint, and merging it now with his Earth Saint Dao body does not make him a Martial Dao Sovereign, yet it aligns with a certain attribute of one. That is why it unleashes such world-shaking power." "To think Lu Changsheng held such a card in reserve. It seems a truly extraordinary existence may be born in this Dao Transformation Battlefield—a Master of a Thousand Daos... No, perhaps a Master of Ten Thousand Daos!" For a time, the hearts of the many Heavenly Saints burned with intense fervor. A Master of Ten Thousand Daos! The Dao Transformation Battlefield had been held for countless years. How many Masters of Ten Thousand Daos had ever emerged? Not a single one! Yes, not a single one. After all, achieving Master of Ten Thousand Daos in the Dao Transformation Battlefield was simply too difficult. As things stood, Lu Changsheng held the greatest promise. "Let us continue watching. With over two months remaining, anything could happen..." The Heavenly Saints nodded in agreement. Looking at Lu Changsheng, then glancing back at the Earth Saints their own sects had favored earlier, none of them remained in the mood. Comparison was the thief of joy. Without Lu Changsheng, they would have happily watched the geniuses they had earmarked. Yet with Lu Changsheng present, the others were simply unwatchable. *** Lu Changsheng had no idea that terrifying Heavenly Saints were watching his every move. He continued swallowing one martial dao after another, plundering and integrating them all into the Infinite Martial Dao. His tally had originally stood at 128 martial daos, but now it began to surge wildly. One hundred thirty, one hundred forty, one hundred fifty, one hundred sixty, one hundred seventy... The count of Lu Changsheng's martial daos skyrocketed. In just a few short hours, his martial daos rapidly climbed to a full 190! An increase of sixty-two. On average, each Earth Saint had provided Lu Changsheng with nearly three martial daos. "One hundred ninety martial daos." "Nearly two hundred. Still, it is far from a thousand, let alone ten thousand." Lu Changsheng's current target was ten thousand martial daos. He had to strive to become a Master of Ten Thousand Daos! After all, if he did not seize such a prime opportunity within the Dao Transformation Battlefield, where else could he find a better one? If one treated a Master of a Hundred Daos as a unit of measurement, Lu Changsheng was now worth nearly two units. Well, he was still far off; he had to keep going. "Time to resume the hunt." With a single thought, Lu Changsheng immediately set out to pursue the fleeing Earth Saints. *Whoosh.* Lu Changsheng began hunting through teleportation. His dramatic advancement also stirred an uproar among all the Earth Saints in the Dao Transformation Battlefield. They monitored the leaderboard constantly. Now, they watched as Lu Changsheng, ranked first and the sole Master of a Hundred Daos, saw his martial daos multiply at breakneck speed. One hundred thirty, one hundred fifty, two hundred... The speed at which Lu Changsheng accumulated martial daos was shockingly swift. Practically every moment, they could see the number of martial daos gathered behind Lu Changsheng's name ticking upward. "How can he be so fast?" "Look, it's two hundred! Two hundred martial daos!" "He reached two hundred already? And it's still rising—two hundred and three now... Does he run into Earth Saints and slaughter them to plunder their daos at every waking moment?" "At such a rapid pace, with his martial daos swelling drastically in under an hour on average, he must possess some method to swiftly locate and kill Earth Saints." "Moreover, Lu Changsheng's strength must be utterly monstrous. That sudden surge of dozens of martial daos earlier means he likely wiped out over twenty Earth Saints in a single stroke to see such a massive leap." "But how on earth is Lu Changsheng tracking down those Earth Saints?" Unease crept into the hearts of many Earth Saints. Lu Changsheng's bizarre surge instilled a creeping sense of crisis. If Lu Changsheng truly possessed the ability to rapidly track and slay Earth Saints at will, did that not mean none of them were safe? Would the Dao Transformation Battlefield not become Lu Changsheng's personal slaughterhouse? "Forget it, I'll hide for now. My count of transformed daos is more or less sufficient anyway." "If Lu Changsheng truly has a way to hunt down Earth Saints at any moment, our only choice under these circumstances is to risk everything and attempt to break through to Heavenly Saint." "Indeed. Only by successfully advancing to Heavenly Saint can one escape the Dao Transformation Battlefield." Many Earth Saints made up their minds. They were not foolish. Rather than sit idly awaiting death, it was better to wage everything on a breakthrough to Heavenly Saint! As for failure? Failure meant death. Being caught by Lu Changsheng also meant death. Why not take the desperate gamble? Furthermore, if they perished while attempting to break through to Heavenly Saint, their martial daos would scatter, giving Lu Changsheng nothing. Yet those with the courage to attempt the breakthrough to Heavenly Saint remained a minority in the end. Lu Changsheng proceeded systematically, hunting Earth Saints without pause, causing his count of martial daos to climb steadily. In the blink of an eye, more than two months passed. Throughout those two months, Lu Changsheng naturally stole all the limelight. He had long since become a Master of a Thousand Daos, his overall strength surging once again. Below Lu Changsheng, a few other Masters of a Hundred Daos had also emerged. Yet by now, no one paid those Masters of a Hundred Daos any heed. Even a brilliantly gifted Master of a Hundred Daos had been reduced to a mere foil. Eventually, as Lu Changsheng relentlessly hunted down Earth Saints, one of those Masters of a Hundred Daos fell, and their hundred-plus martial daos fell into Lu Changsheng's hands. After that, every remaining Earth Saint felt thoroughly endangered. Including the other Masters of a Hundred Daos. Thus, one by one, the Masters of a Hundred Daos hesitated no longer, immediately attempting the breakthrough to Heavenly Saint. For a Master of a Hundred Daos, breaking through to Heavenly Saint was comparatively straightforward. Every one of them succeeded. Yet the moment they became Heavenly Saints, they were promptly teleported out of the Dao Transformation Battlefield. "Lu Changsheng..." "Were it not for Lu Changsheng, I might have had a chance at becoming a Master of a Thousand Daos. Advancing to Heavenly Saint then would have yielded an entirely different foundation and potential." "Despicable! To think such a monster as Lu Changsheng appeared in this session of the Dao Transformation Battlefield!" "Forget it. At least I became a Heavenly Saint, unlike those other Earth Saints who let their guard down, had their bodies destroyed and daos extinguished, and ended up as fuel for Lu Changsheng without even getting the chance to advance..." After advancing to Heavenly Saint, these martial artists gritted their teeth. They felt indignant, yet simultaneously breathed sighs of relief. The pressure Lu Changsheng exerted within the Dao Transformation Battlefield was simply too suffocating. None of them dared linger in the battlefield any longer. A single stroke of bad luck, and they would become nourishment for Lu Changsheng. Lu Changsheng also noticed something amiss. He discovered that the number of Earth Saints on the leaderboard was dwindling rapidly day by day. Not only had he already become a Master of a Thousand Daos, but he had accumulated a terrifying count of over eight thousand martial daos! He was short by little more than a thousand. Yet that remaining thousand was proving far harder to acquire than all the previous ones. After slaying several Earth Saints, Lu Changsheng gradually grasped the reason. It turned out those Earth Saints were all attempting breakthroughs to Heavenly Saint! Whether they succeeded or failed, once an opponent began the breakthrough, Lu Changsheng could no longer claim any of their martial daos. "I must pick up the pace; the Earth Saints left to me are running out." "If those Earth Saints possess the resolve to burn their bridges—preferring to die failing a breakthrough rather than be slain by me—it will be virtually impossible for me to become a Master of Ten Thousand Daos..." Lu Changsheng knew how pressing the situation was. He had to cut them down before those Earth Saints could 'commit suicide.' After all, in Lu Changsheng's eyes, many Earth Saints rushing into a breakthrough were essentially committing suicide. Now, it was a race against time. A contest to see whether Lu Changsheng could slay Earth Saints faster, or the other Earth Saints could 'commit suicide' faster. This sight left the Heavenly Saints of the twenty-one pinnacle martial sacred grounds utterly dumbfounded. They had presided over countless sessions of the Dao Transformation Battlefield. Yet never had they witnessed such a scene. It was not a clash of strength, nor a desperate struggle for survival. It was a contest to see who could 'kill themselves' faster. It was simply... surreal! Day after day slipped by until only ten days remained, yet Lu Changsheng's martial daos had barely crossed nine thousand. Nine days, eight days, seven days, six days, five days... When the final day arrived, Lu Changsheng finally seized an opportunity and tracked down a Master of a Hundred Daos! "Hmm?" "You didn't attempt the breakthrough to Heavenly Saint?" Lu Changsheng looked at the Master of a Hundred Daos before him. He recognized her. Such a potent aura, such distinct characteristics. The one ranked second on the Dao Transformation Battlefield's leaderboard—Lu Yaoguang! She was a female Earth Saint. Moreover, the count of martial daos she had accumulated had already reached 998. In other words, she was merely two martial daos away from becoming a Master of a Thousand Daos. Perhaps that was the very reason she had remained in the Dao Transformation Battlefield all this time. *Whoosh.* Lu Yaoguang raised her head, her frost-cold, beautiful eyes fixing upon Lu Changsheng. This was her first time seeing Lu Changsheng. Yet it was an encounter she had long awaited! "Lu Changsheng, you have finally come..." "Everyone says you are invincible in the Dao Transformation Battlefield, that all Earth Saints are merely your nourishment. "Yet once I kill you, everything you possess will become my nourishment. "My goal was never some Master of a Thousand Daos, but... the Master of Ten Thousand Daos!" Within Lu Yaoguang's icy voice lay a trace of unhinged madness!
