Chapter 557 - 402: World-Ending Divine Venerable Fist, Celestial Vault Godslaying Slash, Challenging Heaven-Reaching Peak
Although Yu Qianxue said I could ask for anything anytime,
Lin Chang’sheng isn’t stupid. That’s just being polite. If you open your mouth, you owe someone a favor, and you’ll have to pay it back later.
And with some powerful Immortal Techniques, even if he did ask, Yu Qianxue might not actually give them to him.
Middle-tier Immortal Techniques aren’t worth Lin Chang’sheng using up that card either.
Better to focus on diligent cultivation, complete sect missions, collect Experience Points and trade them for Immortal Techniques the practical way.
"Brother Lin, check out that chick over there, she looks amazing! Is she one of the new prodigy disciples too?"
Just as Lin Chang’sheng and Zhang Shisong arrived back in front of the cabin at the foot of Heaven-Reaching Peak, Zhang Shisong spotted a guy and a girl waiting outside.
The two were Zhao Shuang’Er and Hou Shaojie, here to find Lin Chang’sheng.
When Zhang Shisong saw Zhao Shuang’Er’s curvy figure, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Shuang’Er?"
Lin Chang’sheng couldn’t help but get a little excited inside at the sight of Zhao Shuang’Er. This little girl came looking for him the moment she heard he was back at the Immortal Palace?
"Shuang’Er? Wait, you two know each other?"
That caught Zhang Shisong by surprise. He’d been letting his imagination run wild, and turns out Lin Chang’sheng already knows her?
Guess I’m out of luck again.
"Brother Chang’sheng!"
As soon as Lin Chang’sheng and the others arrived, Zhao Shuang’Er saw him, immediately ran over and dove straight into Lin Chang’sheng’s arms.
Even Lin Chang’sheng was caught off guard by that.
This girl is pretty straightforward, huh?
A burst of fragrance hit him, wafting right to his nose, making his heart beat a little faster.
"Ahem, ahem—"
Hou Shaojie gave two heavy coughs, trying to lighten the awkwardness.
"Brother Lin, I’ll leave you two to chat, I won’t be the third wheel! See you tomorrow!"
Seeing Lin Chang’sheng with a beauty in his arms, Zhang Shisong knew sticking around would just make him look clueless, so he excused himself and quickly slipped away.
Lin Chang’sheng, sensing the awkwardness, finally let go of Zhao Shuang’Er.
"I knew it, big bro—you always land on your feet!"
Hou Shaojie grinned, then came over for a hug as well.
"You two haven’t run into any trouble in the Immortal Palace, have you?"
Lin Chang’sheng asked.
"Trouble? What trouble? Who in the world doesn’t know about my relationship with big bro? Mess with us and you’re ticking off the whole Immortal Palace! Haha—"
Hou Shaojie laughed.
The Immortal Palace disciples all treated them pretty well—after all, Hou Shaojie and Lin Chang’sheng are tight.
Plus, they’ve got their own talent. Maybe they aren’t favorites of the Sect Leader, but they’ve still earned some attention from the Stewards and Elders.
They might not be able to match the prodigy disciples of Heaven-Reaching Peak in Cultivation right now,
but they’ve got youth on their side—endless possibilities ahead.
"That’s good! Just focus on cultivating in the Immortal Palace for now. I’m planning to climb up Heaven-Reaching Peak!"
Lin Chang’sheng replied. The higher up you go on Heaven-Reaching Peak, the better the cultivation resources. No way was he going to stay training down at the bottom.
"Climb Heaven-Reaching Peak? Isn’t that really dangerous?"
Zhao Shuang’Er tensed up, worried Lin Chang’sheng might be in danger.
"Relax, Shuang’Er! The boss never does anything he’s not certain about. And those disciples up on Heaven-Reaching Peak? I doubt any of them can take him!"
Hou Shaojie had absolute faith in Lin Chang’sheng—there weren’t many people out there who could beat his big bro.
"Brother Chang’sheng, promise you’ll be careful!"
Zhao Shuang’Er said with concern.
"Boss, once you’ve conquered Heaven-Reaching Peak, take us out on some missions! My Experience Points have always been in the single digits—I can’t even trade for a half-decent Immortal Technique!"
Hou Shaojie grinned. He’d been eyeing those Immortal Books in the Library for ages now.
"No problem! I’m planning to pick up some sect missions for Experience Points myself in a few days. We’ll go together!"
Lin Chang’sheng replied—they were definitely on the same page about that.
Seems like Experience Points are a must here in the Immortal Palace. Without them, you can’t trade for resources at all.
"Sounds good. Boss, you go train. Xiaoshuang and I will head out for now!"
Hou Shaojie laughed, and then led Zhao Shuang’Er away.
Even though Zhao Shuang’Er wanted to stay and chat with Lin Chang’sheng a little longer,
Hou Shaojie said their boss needed to focus on cultivation and preparing to challenge Heaven-Reaching Peak—no need to disturb him too much.
Zhao Shuang’Er could only leave with Hou Shaojie.
Watching Hou Shaojie try to play matchmaker with Zhao Shuang’Er, Lin Chang’sheng could pretty much guess what was on Hou Shaojie’s mind.
But he didn’t say anything more.
Shaking his head, Lin Chang’sheng stopped dwelling on it and was ready to go practice the two Immortal Techniques. Once he fused them, he’d be ready to challenge Heaven-Reaching Peak’s disciples tomorrow.
...
Heaven-Reaching Peak, on a sheer cliff near the summit.
A spiritual spring bubbled steadily, pouring out streams of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi—an absolute paradise for cultivation.
At this moment, a man with sword-shaped brows and shining eyes furrowed his brow as he heard Lin Chang’sheng had returned to the Immortal Palace, quite surprised by that news.
"Didn’t expect that brat to make it back to the Immortal Palace alive. Pretty impressive!"
Shen Yu muttered to himself. He’d thought he wouldn’t even need to lift a finger—Lin Chang’sheng would be dead on the road already.
Looks like he’d have to deal with it himself after all.
"Dying at my hand will be your greatest honor!"
Shen Yu slashed his sword. The Sword Aura flashed invisible in the air, impossible to see with the naked eye.
BOOM—
In the next instant, the razor-sharp Sword Aura blasted into a nearby boulder, splitting it clean in two.
Clearly, this guy’s Sword Technique was out of the ordinary.
...
At the foot of Heaven-Reaching Peak.
[World-Ending Nebula Fist: Entry Level!]
[Nine-Star Celestial Sword Technique: Entry Level!]
After dedicating an entire Hour to studying these two Immortal Techniques, Lin Chang’sheng finally managed to train both up to Entry Level.
[World-Ending Nebula Fist detected. Would you like to spend 6,000 Immortal Crystals to Simplify this technique?]
