Chapter 276: Elder Brother Dong is indeed not deceiving me!

Ding! The host's second disciple's spiritual fire attainment has stepped into a first level of the Supermundane Realm, beginning synchronization!

The voice fell!

A strand of pure, gentle flow surged into Lu Xuan's dantian, raising his cultivation foundation by a thread.

The tingling sensation was just right.

At the same time, a ball of comprehension light appeared in his mind, turning into specks of stars, instantly vanishing.

Lu Xuan smiled and said, 'Not bad, not bad.'

On this trip to the Bronze Ancient Hall, Ji Fuyao and Ye Chen will surely attain Emperor status!

Not long after.

Chen Zhangsheng brought over the steaming hot food.

The two began to eat.

Chen Zhangsheng felt moved; the master truly possesses a kind of magic.

No matter where, he remains so calm and unhurried… although these past few days of battle have all been him taking action.

He still needs to learn.

Along the way, he also gained a deep insight into the Scripture of Non-Action.

Non-action and action are dialectically unified.

Hiding behind the scenes to kill invisibly is a form of non-action.

Killing openly with thunderbolts is also a form of non-action.

Chen Zhangsheng took a bite, his Dao Resonance flowing, and asked, 'Master, what exactly is non-action?'

Lu Xuan gazed deeply, 'Non-action is not deduced, it is comprehended. The more you think about it, the less it exists; if you do not think, do not discriminate, one day you will step into the realm of non-action.'

Chen Zhangsheng blinked in surprise.

The master's words contain a huge amount of information!

There is a kind of mysterious obscurity!

Chen Zhangsheng ate while pondering.

Lu Xuan continued, 'Some things, the more you care about them, the less you can obtain.'

Chen Zhangsheng understood.

After a moment, he sighed, 'I have become attached to form.'

Non-action itself is a state of 'nothing'; he has always wanted to comprehend its mystery, which is already a lower approach.

Soon, his state of mind settled.

He looked at Lu Xuan and began observing secretly.

Carefree, unrestrained, even if the Spirit Mountain collapses before him, he remains composed…

Lu Xuan met Chen Zhangsheng's gaze, smiled faintly, 'Old Three, study—learning knows no end.'

Chen Zhangsheng nodded.

Lu Xuan finished eating, leisurely rose, gazing at the magnificent firmament formed by the shifting Dao markings above his head, his heart undisturbed.

Chen Zhangsheng asked, 'Along this way, whether it be foreign races, monster clans, or many ancient hegemonic powers, they all harbor murderous intent toward our Great Dao Sect. My wooden puppets have relayed news; now many forces are targeting our Great Dao Sect!'

Lu Xuan lightly said, 'Any trace of the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestors?'

Chen Zhangsheng said, 'I have located them; they are being jointly hunted by Shadow Island and the monster clans! However, the Heavenly Origin Old Ancestors can still cope.'

Lu Xuan calmly said, 'In the face of absolute strength, numbers are useless.'

Chen Zhangsheng took a bite, his Dao Resonance dissipating, and asked, 'Master, when will you act?'

Lu Xuan said, 'Not rushed, not rushed. When the time to act comes, I will act on my own.'

After an hour.

The two continued onward.

These past days, the news that Lu Xuan and Chen Zhangsheng have been wandering the Emperor Realm region has spread wildly.

Numerous major forces were utterly shocked.

Could it be that Lu Xuan and Chen Zhangsheng have actually been Emperor Realm powerhouses all along?

Otherwise, this Emperor Realm region is densely covered with terrifying mountains and rivers; there are also extra-dimensional Yin soldiers, and even extra-dimensional beings whose bodies are stained with strange power; even a High Star Great Emperor walking would need to be cautious.

Just with Lu Xuan's Qi Refining cultivation, he would likely be directly obliterated by the strange forces!

Someone saw Lu Xuan lying on the recliner, very leisurely.

Someone saw Lu Xuan and Chen Zhangsheng eating.

And those Great Emperors who claimed to seize Lu Xuan and Chen Zhangsheng to threaten the Great Dao Sect have all gone and never returned, with no news.

This left many Great Emperors feeling somewhat doubtful.

What on earth is going on with this kid Lu Xuan?

Isn't he just at the Qi Refining stage?

The many Old Ancestors of the Great Dao Sect, hearing the news, all laughed and shook their heads.

Within the Bronze Ancient Hall, the one they least worry about is Lu Xuan.

That is a White Robe Great Emperor possessing him!

The many Old Ancestors secretly thought, 'Surely the white-robed fellow cultivator is an Emperor Realm being; otherwise he would have already been transmitted to the Supreme Region.'

And at this moment.

Lu Xuan was advancing with Chen Zhangsheng.

They are now deep within a terrifying True Dragon Bloodbath Mighty Force; all around, the chilling Dao markings of Great Emperors trigger this land's heavenly killing intent, while in the dark, cold gazes fixedly stare at Lu Xuan.

Above Lu Xuan's head, the Dao markings constantly shift, sometimes becoming a starry sky, sometimes the heavens overturning, sometimes revealing a corner of the river of ages of this world's vast seas turning to mulberry fields.

Here, you simply cannot believe your own eyes!

This is the terror of the Emperor's Realm region!

The bronze ancient temple's rule-encompassing power blankets the entire Emperor's Realm region, and anyone who approaches its perilous terrain gets sucked in.

Lu Xuan activated his Insight Eye and quickly grasped all the dao patterns and restrictions here.

He blinked, seeing within the cavern a humanoid creature covered head to toe in red fur, lying hidden.

Chen Changsheng also quickly spotted the eerie being and warned, 'His body is smeared with strange and unknown powers.'

Lu Xuan watched curiously; this was the first time he'd seen such a being.

The red fur blanketed him like a carpet; though weathered by time, it stayed silky smooth, with faint dao patterns shimmering.

He examined it closely from head to toe, and after a moment Lu Xuan said, 'Brother Dong truly does not deceive me!'

In an instant, the creature lunged at Lu Xuan and his companion, seeking to devour their vital essence.

Chen Changsheng waved his hand, and several black formation disks shot out.

Brilliant formation patterns surged like a galaxy, instantly sealing the humanoid creature within.

The two pressed on.

Lu Xuan asked curiously, 'Old Three, you're practically an ancient relic—why aren't you tainted with strange and unknown powers?'

Chen Changsheng's face twitched as he replied, 'I have some secret methods; this involves some secrets of the Southern Wasteland.'

Lu Xuan did not press further.

Old Three loves to stay low-key, so let him stay that way.

Soon after, they came upon a great tomb—the red-furred being's secluded retreat. Chen Changsheng produced an ancient iron shovel, and under Lu Xuan's direction, he shattered the tomb's formations, practically hauling out all its treasures.

The red-furred creature watched from afar; though its consciousness had been worn away by endless ages, leaving only a survival instinct, it was still so angry it jumped up and down.

Before departing, Lu Xuan waved at the red-furred creature in farewell.

The red-furred creature flew into a rage.

He could endure the desolation of countless ages, but he could not stand Lu Xuan!

After leaving the True Dragon Blood-soaked terrain, the voice-transmitting jade slip in Lu Xuan's bosom trembled.

He probed it with his divine sense, and Ancestor Cang Yuan's voice came from the jade slip.

Ancestor Cang Yuan is calling for help!

Several elders of the Cang lineage have been surrounded by numerous high-star emperors!

Lu Xuan immediately said, 'We'll be right there!'

In the next instant.

The two stepped forward, divine radiance surging beneath their feet and forming two divine rainbows that shot straight into the distance.

Meanwhile.

A ruined palace stands atop the myriad mountains, the remains of an ancient sect.

The mountains stretch vast and boundless between heaven and earth; countless caves have collapsed, the bones of the mighty litter the ground, as if life had been snuffed out in an instant.

Within a hidden stone hall, Ancestor Cang Yuan and others have laid a heaven-reaching defensive formation, waiting here.

Just now they tried to contact the Heaven lineage elder, but got no reply; instead they reached the White-Robed Emperor and received a response.

At this moment, within a radius of dozens of miles, three nine-star demon emperors of the Demon Court, leading many high-star emperors, are searching for them.

A gray-robed elder clutched his chest, blood flowing, 'Cang Yuan, just who is this White-Robed Emperor?'

Ancestor Cang Yuan shook his head, 'I don't know. This fellow seems to have swept into the world; I've guarded the Great Dao Sect for a thousand years and never sensed his aura. It was only last year, after Lu Xuan took Ji Fuyu, that he suddenly appeared!'

Everyone frowned.

Just then.

Boom!

Crack!

The void tore apart!

Space twisted!

A mighty aura of a nine-star emperor-level great demon surged from the void, vast as an abyss and sea; three nine-star great emperors stood with over a dozen high-star demon clans behind them.

The nine-star emperor-level great demon's divine sense swept the heavens, continually scanning this site's ruins, and quickly discovered the hiding place of Ancestor Cang Yuan and the others.

One star, one world!

In the Cang lineage, the strongest elder is only a seven-star emperor.

Before a nine-star emperor realm, there is utterly no way to escape.

The nine-star emperor-level great demon snorted coldly and spoke in a cold voice.

"Great Dao Sect! You dare kill my Demon Court's people; today is your retribution…"

Before he could finish, the void tore apart again.

"Crack!"

"Boom!"

Lu Xuan, with Chen Changsheng, slowly stepped out of the void rift.
