Lu Changsheng shook his head, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator showed no response, "Your aptitude is not sufficient."

The members of the Xiao Family looked disheartened, their aptitude was actually inferior to Xiao Fan's.

"Please stay at our Xiao Family for some more time, Immortal Lu."

Xiao Tianyun knew that the Xiao Family's capability to establish themselves in Chongwu City was largely due to the support of Lu Changsheng, so he urged Lu Changsheng to remain at the Xiao Family and cultivate.

"That would be fine."

Lu Changsheng thought about it.

Being new here, he was in need of a place to practice, and although the Xiao Family was not a Cave Heaven Blessed Land, it did have a Qi Gathering Formation and was passable.

Lu Changsheng needed to cultivate the Sacred Tier top-quality Cultivation Technique "Three Thousand Demon Gods Visualization."

Xiao Tianyun said to Xiao Fan, "Fan'er, now that you have a reputable master to guide you, you must still diligently cultivate and not become arrogant. Our Xiao Family was a powerful prestigious family during the Ancient Times. Regrettably, with countless years passing by, each generation became weaker, and now we are just a third-rate family.

Alas, if you could reach the Earth Immortal Realm, you would be considered to have revitalized our Xiao Family. As for the cancellation of the marriage by the Divine Lightning Sect, don't take it to heart. The Sect Master of the Divine Lightning Sect is a Supreme Being who has cultivated for tens of millions of years, and even your master is no match for him.

You just need to live your life; there's no need to compare yourself with Murong Lan."

"Child has remembered. Child won't care about the Divine Lightning Sect matter, but child will find a way to restore the glory of the Ancient Xiao Family and will never be looked down upon!"

Xiao Fan's eyes were resolute, carrying the pride of the Ancient Xiao Family in his bones.

The Ancient Xiao Family was a famous prestigious family in the Immortal Realm. After the fall of their Ancestor, the Xiao Family never recovered. By the time of Xiao Tianyun's generation, not even a single Loose Immortal existed.

Having heard the father and son's conversation, Lu Changsheng was quietly astounded by the past of the Xiao Family.

The Xiao Family was a part of the Immortal Realm's Ancient Family; no wonder Xiao Fan possessed the heaven-defying War Heaven Tyrant Body.

Of the descendants of the Xiao Family, only Xiao Fan had awakened the bloodline of the family's Ancestor.

The War Heaven Tyrant Body was a special physique from the Ancient Times.

It seemed that he was fortunate; the first disciple he recruited upon arriving in the Immortal Realm possessed such an imposing special physique.

Although Xiao Fan's cultivation level was a bit low, with Lu Changsheng's current cultivation, it would be easy to help Xiao Fan elevate his realm.

Normally, the lifespan of Earth Immortal Realm cultivators is limited to one hundred thousand years.

Including the seven hundred years spent in the cultivation space, Lu Changsheng had only cultivated for just over a thousand years; he was not in a rush.

Since the Xiao Family was an Ancient Family, they should have preserved a collection of classics, even in decline.

Lu Changsheng would take advantage of the Xiao Family's classics to get an overview of the Immortal Realm.

Upon hearing that Lu Changsheng wanted to peruse the Xiao Family's classics, Xiao Tianyun readily agreed.

Lu Changsheng was his son's master, having imparted Body Tempering methods and performed Power-infusing Initiation for Xiao Fan; it was only natural for the Xiao Family to allow Lu Changsheng to examine their classics.

The Xiao Family had lost most of their Cultivation Techniques, with only a batch of Immortal and Heaven Rank techniques and the Xiao Family's collection of classics remaining.

Lu Changsheng browsed through these classics, gaining a clear understanding of the Immortal Realm.

"Above the Earth Immortal Realm lies the Heavenly Immortal Realm, and even greater are beings like Daluo Golden Immortals who are Supreme Beings capable of destroying the heavens and earth, leaving no light in their wake, not to be provoked."

"The Immortal Realm is vast and boundless, with terrifying entities like Holy Sects and Immortal Dynasties."

"The Immortal Realm is rife with Heretic Cultivators and Demon Sects, and even an Immortal Dynasty that has lasted for billions of years could collapse."

"There are forbidden places in the Immortal Realm that one must not rashly enter; even Daluo Golden Immortals might fall there..."

Lu Changsheng noted the information about the Immortal Realm from the Xiao Family's classics, broadening his horizons.

The Immortal Realm was even more vast than Lu Changsheng had imagined; Chongwu City was but a speck in the ocean.

The Great Qian Dynasty, where Chongwu City was located, was only one significant power within the Immortal Realm.

The Divine Lightning Sect, the number one Sect of the Great Qian Dynasty, had existed even longer than the dynasty itself, with a Sect Master whose cultivation was unfathomably deep, not to be lightly provoked.

"The Immortal Realm is filled with peerless geniuses from three thousand minor worlds, ancient cultivators, and terrifying existences that have cultivated for hundreds of millions of years. I must keep a low profile and survive until I achieve holiness."

"I must also take in a few more disciples and perform Power-infusing Initiation for them, to quickly enhance my cultivation; otherwise, facing a fully realized Earth Immortal or even a Daluo Golden Immortal means certain death for me."

"It would be best to recruit disciples of the Unity Realm; otherwise, without the necessary Treasured Fragment or Ultimate Treasure for Power-infusing Initiation, the returned cultivation will not amount to much."

"Too bad there are no suitable disciples left in Chongwu City. It seems I'll need to travel far and wide to find more appropriate disciples."

Lu Changsheng realized that after arriving in the Immortal Realm, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator became even pickier, only accommodating special physiques from the Ancient Times like the War Heaven Tyrant Body, and not meeting the requirements for recruiting disciples otherwise.

"Today, your master will impart to you Alchemy."

Lu Changsheng took out the Earth Rank top-quality Cultivation Technique "Advanced Alchemy Skills" and began teaching Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan, apart from possessing the War Heaven Tyrant Body, also had the talent to become an Alchemy Grandmaster, so Lu Changsheng personally taught him the art of alchemy.

The War Heaven Tyrant Body required the consumption of a great quantity of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Immortal Pills. If Xiao Fan could produce elixirs himself, it would also reduce the consumption on Lu Changsheng's part.

Under Lu Changsheng's guidance, Xiao Fan quickly grasped the alchemy skills.

[Ding, you have bestowed upon your disciple Xiao Fan the Earth Rank superior cultivation technique "Advanced Alchemy Skills," and you have received the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator's ten-thousandfold return reward: the Heaven Rank inferior cultivation technique "Heaven Rank Alchemy."]

Lu Changsheng's thoughts were indeed correct.

Among his disciples, Mo Huazhi was a Divine Talismancer, while Xiao Fan was a Divine Pill Master.

Lu Changsheng had seven opportunities to teach his disciples each day, and even if the disciples in the Dao Palace realm could not return anything too valuable, when added up over time, the various treasures and Elixir Pills that were returned were substantial.

Lu Changsheng's stay with the Xiao Family lasted thirty years.

Lu Changsheng cultivated the Sacred Tier superior cultivation technique "Three Thousand Demon Gods Visualization," and it took him thirty years to achieve the first layer.

The Sacred Tier superior cultivation technique has already surpassed the category of Earth Immortal cultivation techniques.

Xiao Fan became Lu Changsheng's disciple, and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. In thirty years, he stepped from the fifth layer of the Dao Palace realm into the Void Refinement Realm, and he could now be rewarded with Immortal Artifacts!

Xiao Fan underwent the Threefold Heavenly Tribulation outside of Chongwu City.

"Immortal Lu truly is an esteemed figure."

Xiao Tianyun, seeing his son's rapid increase in cultivation, admired Lu Changsheng even more.

If it wasn't for Lu Changsheng's personal guidance, Xiao Fan would have been hopelessly stuck.

However, Lu Changsheng's face was expressionless.

His stay at the Xiao Family was not just for cultivation, but also for another reason.

After thirty years in the mortal world, Grandmaster Taixu should have also ascended to the Immortal Realm, but he did not appear near Chongwu City.

Had Grandmaster Taixu ascended and arrived at a different place in the Immortal Realm?

If ascension randomly placed one in a location within the vast Immortal Realm, how would he wait for Xia Ningxue?

With the Immortal Realm being so vast, would they ever meet again?

Lu Changsheng felt that the Yin Yang Dual Cultivation Skills in the area of his heart were still circulating, indicating that Xia Ningxue was still alive.

[Ding, your disciple Xiao Fan's realm has advanced from the Dao Palace realm to the Void Refinement Realm, and you have received the reward for your disciple's realm advancement: a fragment of a human race Ultimate Treasure ×1.]

[Ding, you have twelve unused fragments of the human race Ultimate Treasure, and currently, these twelve fragments can be combined into one human race Ultimate Treasure.]

As Lu Changsheng pondered how he could reunite with Xia Ningxue, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator issued a prompt.

Before Lu Changsheng ascended, he accumulated eleven fragments of the human race Ultimate Treasure through teaching his disciples. Coupled with the fragment rewarded for Xiao Fan's advancement in realm, he could now assemble the third human race Ultimate Treasure!

...

In the mortal world, within the Star Pavilion, Tang Wansan was about to undertake his Tribulation and ascend.

"Shen Xiaoyao, I entrust my daughter to you. Do not disappoint me."

Tang Wansan had witnessed the power of Earth Immortal realm experts in the final battle of Mount Shu and was certain he would pass the Ninefold Heavenly Tribulation and ascend to the Immortal Realm.

"Ling'er and I will also undergo the Tribulation and ascend after a few thousand years."

"Father, rest assured. Xiaoyao brother treats me very well."

Shen Xiaoyao and Tang Ling'er bid farewell to Tang Wansan.

One with a Pure Yang Body and the other with a Pure Yin Body, even without Power-infusing Initiation from others, their qualifications meant that ascending to the Immortal Realm was only a matter of time for them.

"Lu Changsheng, I am also about to ascend to the Immortal Realm, and then we shall compete again. If I encounter good fortune in the Immortal Realm, my achievements may well not fall short of yours."

Tang Wansan had his own pride as he commenced his Tribulation!

The Star Pavilion is home to hundreds of unparalleled geniuses who are in the Immortal Realm!

"I wonder how Master is faring in the Immortal Realm? I must diligently cultivate to keep pace with Master."

Shen Xiaoyao couldn't help but reminisce about the days of cultivating under the tutelage of his master Lu Changsheng.

With Master's Power-infusing Initiation, advancement in realm was much faster than now.
