Chapter 435: 0284 Enlightenment Saint Body (4k)

Jiangnan in March is filled with the songs of orioles.

The spring of Su City arrived as promised.

What should have been a vibrant season, however, was cast under a shadow by a sudden emergency. The Martial Prison guarded by Grandmasters in the suburbs was invaded by several Nameless Ghost Kings, which led to an intense battle. Lufang and another elderly Grandmaster from the police force rushed to support but were ambushed by a strong adversary on their way.

The Blue Lotus Society, the Heart Happiness Sect, Carefree Travel, and the Eternal Heaven marshalled their top experts and besieged the two Grandmasters. They banished Lufang with an Evil Skill to a nameless void suspected to be the Void Realm while the other Grandmaster managed to escape and call for help.

Lufang vanished from the Human World.

Back in Hang City, Gong Jiu of Jiangnan Wu University, a Great Grandmaster known as Absolute God No Trace, was enraged. He set aside his work and came to Su City in person to investigate Lufang’s disappearance. He contacted all the senior members of Starfire City across Da Xia, searching for traces of Lufang in the Void Realm.

But as days went by,

no one knew where Lufang had gone.

...

Somewhere in Su City.

"Protector Xu, where did you banish Lufang to?"

Gu Qianqian’s face was somber, and behind her, a vision of a reclining Goddess flickered into existence, her scant garments connoting both sanctity and a sinister charm.

Behind Xu Cheng, an image of Blue Lotus supporting the heavens appeared, and he said with a shrug,

"As I’ve said, I don’t know either. My banishment Spell was disrupted by Lufang’s aura. Considering our safety, I released the spell before it was fully executed, so the destination was random. The Void Realm is vast—how could I know where he went?

Rest assured, though the transfer was slightly off, the likelihood of Lufang being sent to a forbidden area is higher—he’s probably doomed!"

Gu Qianqian rubbed her forehead, a look of worry on her face.

Xu Cheng’s actions weren’t wrong.

Despite being four individuals, none of them excelled in head-on battles. If they hadn’t banished Lufang quickly, who had cultivated both internally and externally after his Burst Seed, he might soon have taken one of them with him.

If they hesitated, they’d be defeated one by one.

Li Haosheng, indifferent, laughed and said,

"Who cares where he went, as long as he’s not in Su City for a while."

He was only here to search for the future Holy Daughter. With Lufang around, he was a hindrance. Once the Holy Daughter was found, he would leave Su City. Even if Lufang returned, it would be of no concern to him. The power of Eternal Heaven was in the north, with no current interest in extending their reach to the south.

Tang Zheng also revealed a smile.

Without Lufang around, even the air in Su City seemed freshly sweet.

Da Xia had a scarce number of experts above the rank of Grandmaster. Great Grandmasters and Heavenly Kings either guarded schools or key junctions, unlikely to come to Su City for such positions. Senior Grandmasters, usually entangled with their own duties, could hardly make themselves available. Even if another Grandmaster was sent, as long as it wasn’t someone with combined internal and external cultivation like Lufang, they were not to be feared.

Gu Qianqian no longer worried about these things.

Though there were deviations, the mission was somewhat successful. The next step was to keep a close eye on the Void Realm. If Lufang was found alive, he should be killed immediately. Alone and without support, even Lufang, with Grandmaster cultivation within the Void Realm, would face a certain death.

...

Deep in the Void Realm.

This was an unexplored land of mystery.

The firmament above wasn’t black but deep red, like blood.

The ground was riddled with gullies.

Within the fractured canyons, ancient bones emitting the air of desolation were scattered everywhere, their numerous scars silently recounting the ferocity of past battles.

The sporadically encountered Four Great Heavenly Calamities within the forbidden area were commonplace here. Moreover, even more terrifying disasters wreaked havoc across the land and sky.

A figure stood at the bottom of the canyon, looking up at the unfamiliar sky. Even Lufang, who was well-traveled and knowledgeable, felt a slight tremor in his spirit at the sight of such terrible scenes.

He looked at his damaged phone.

The messages from his daughter had been frozen in time.

Calming his mind, he disappeared into the canyon.

...

Kunlun Mountain.

A mighty mountain range sprawling across the western region of Da Xia, over five thousand miles long, honored as the "Ancestor of a Thousand Mountains" and the "Source of a Thousand Rivers." In ancient times, among this grand cluster of peaks and ridges, top-level forces like Carefree Palace and Great Snow Mountain were born.

The Carefree Elder and the White Dragon, Great Grandmasters like Zhang Zu, were the two Martial Arts giants that ruled Kunlun Mountain, shining throughout history.

Da Xia founded the Tianxia Top Nine, based on the Daoist heritage, inheriting the Daoist lineage from Carefree Palace and Great Snow Mountain, and eventually established Kunlun Martial Arts University, the first martial institution in the western region.

Kunlun Martial Arts University had two campuses: north and south.

The northern campus was located on the remains of Great Snow Mountain, icy and frozen.

The southern campus was where Carefree Palace stood, a valley of eternal spring.

Lu Chenzhou arrived from Mount Everest, first visiting the northern campus.

After exploring here, he would head to the southern campus,

where Li Gui and his wife were also present.

As the Divine Chariot touched down, figures gathered around it.

"Mr. Lu, I’m Wang Xiaobing, a reporter from ’Martial Arts Daily’..."

"I’m your fan..."

"I’ve heard that your Spear Skill is extraordinary, do you dare to have a match with me?"

All kinds of people were there, like paparazzi waiting for him.

"Sorry, I don’t have time."

Such trifles, once indulged, would never end.

Lu Chenzhou had his own plans and had no time to delay.

He felt fortunate that aside from the assassination attempt on Sanqing Mountain, up to now, no nefarious forces had sent anyone to harass him anymore, likely realizing the futility of their attempts.

Of course, it was also possible they were biding their time for a greater move.

Thus, he always traveled low-key, avoiding lingering too long in one place except in bustling areas or within the Top Martial University premises to avoid unwanted confrontations.

After registering for entry, he headed straight for the Great Snow Mountain Ruins.

Inside Kunlun Martial Arts University, the senior members also turned their glances toward Great Snow Mountain.
