As the voice faded, a golden magical sword appeared in Lu Qingshanâs hand.
With the magical sword in hand, his entire demeanor instantly became more formidable.
The already vigorous and sharp character of his spirit immediately turned fierce and compelling, as if he were about to tear the sky asunder and rearrange the sun and the moon.
This caused both Lu Quanzhen and Lu Wangshu standing nearby to be exceedingly astonished.
They had not expected that this brother, who had returned after many years away, would be so astonishingly formidable.
Especially Lu Wangshu.
Confronted with Lu Qingshanâs sharp and powerful momentum, he even felt his heart palpitate.
Seeing this, Lu Changsheng also inwardly praised him.
As expected of a Fourth Rank Seed of Law!
Not to mention anything else, just this aura alone would cause an ordinary Energy Refining Cultivator to weaken significantly upon encountering it.
âDad, be careful,â Lu Qingshan said, his magical sword trembled lightly, giving his father a heads-up.
Facing his mentor, Tianyuan True Immortal, he would draw his sword without any reservations.
But his father was, after all, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
Moreover, listening to his grandfatherâs words, his fatherâs prowess lay in Talismans.
Thus, he was worried about inadvertently injuring his own father, which would be unfilial.
âJust strike without worry,â Lu Changsheng said, his tall and straight figure standing with one hand resting behind his back, like an ancient pine or cypress, as elegant as a handsome tree facing the wind.
âFirst Yang!â
The magical sword in Lu Qingshanâs hand thrust straight out, and in an instant a white-gold Sword Qi burst forth.
âWhoosh!â
Lu Changsheng lightly raised his right hand, his two fingers came together, and a burst of Sword Qi shot out, erasing his sonâs Sword Qi.
âContinue, thereâs no need to hold back,â Lu Changsheng said calmly and indifferently.
âUnderstood!â
Lu Qingshan, realizing he couldnât possibly harm his father, immediately went all out.
âTrue Yang Twelve Swords! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!â
A fierce and brilliant golden brilliance burst forth from Lu Qingshanâs magical sword, making it seem as if a round of golden sun were emerging behind him, shining with dazzling light.
These sword lights all surged toward Lu Changsheng.
âSuch power, is this the strength of an Immortal Sect disciple!?â
Lu Quanzhen, looking on from the side, felt as if waves of awe and shock surged in his heart.
He had been away for many years and was aware of the strength of Loose Cultivators and Family disciples.
Even though he had never crossed swords with an Immortal Sect disciple.
Yet because of the Cultivation Technique taught by his uncle, which laid a robust foundation, he did not believe an Immortal Sect disciple would be stronger than himself.
But now, seeing Lu Qingshanâs prowess, he realized he had been somewhat arrogant before.
âHum hum hum!!!â
An energy shield formed around Lu Changsheng, who stood quietly amidst the sword light, allowing the Sword Qi to attack.
A moment later, all the Sword Qi dissipated, and Lu Changsheng still looked as graceful and dignified as before.
âNot bad,â Lu Changsheng said, looking at his son and giving his comment.
His words were genuinely heartfelt.
Even though he was at the Ninth Level Energy Refinement and possessed the Profound Origin Bead, he wouldnât dare say for sure he could beat his son Lu Qingshan without using Talismans or Puppets.
At this moment, seeing Lu Qingshanâs strength, he felt much more at ease about the upcoming journey to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm.
It seemed that it was precisely because of Lu Qingshanâs abilities that his mentor, Tianyuan True Immortal, felt confident to send him to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm.
Considering such a perilous Secret Realm as a trial to temper himself.
âDid you integrate the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture with your Great Gengjin Sword Art in this sword technique?â Lu Changsheng asked Lu Qingshan.
He detected a trace of the Seven Luminaries Sword Scripture in that strike.
âYou can tell with just one look, Dad. Youâre amazing,â Lu Qingshan said with a grin, buttering up his father.
This demeanor was in stark contrast to the earlier sharpness and unrivaled spirit, creating a strong contrast.
This left Lu Quanzhen truly unable to understand his brother.
Arenât Sword Cultivators supposed to be uncompromising and full of pride?
His brother did seem to fit the description of the Sword Cultivators as mentioned in the books, but nowâŠ
Lu Wangshu, seeing Lu Qingshan act this way, curved her beautiful eyes into a smile, revealing an amused and somewhat empathetic expression.
After asking briefly about his sonâs Sword technique, Lu Changsheng made a few comments and then stopped there.
Given Lu Qingshanâs condition, his natural talent in the Sword Dao meant he could carve his own path and didnât need too much guidance from him.
Saying too much might actually affect Lu Qingshan.
âQuanzhen, what do you think of Qingshanâs strength?â Lu Changsheng asked his other son, Lu Quanzhen.
âQingshanâs strength is greater than mine,â Lu Quanzhen shook his head in reply.
He felt within his current abilities, it would be difficult to block that sword from before.
âQingshan will also go to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm this time,â Lu Changsheng continued.
âQingshan is going to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm?â Lu Quanzhen was surprised.
âYes, Brother Quanzhen, are you also going to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm?â Lu Qingshan asked, raising his eyebrows.
He had some impression of Lu Quanzhen.
He was very smart in school earlier on, but his talent for cultivation seemed to be only average.
However, looking at Lu Quanzhen, he discovered the latterâs Cultivation Level had been concealed, preventing him from seeing through it.
âYes, Quanzhen will also go to the Purple Shadow Secret Realm, and when the time comes, you can look after each other,â Lu Changsheng said.
âThe Purple Shadow Secret Realm? Daddy, is that the Purple Shadow Secret Realm that opens every thirty years? I want to go too!â Lu Wangshuâs interest was piqued upon hearing this.
âDo you think the Purple Shadow Secret Realm is childâs play?â Lu Changsheng immediately retorted, tapping on his daughterâs forehead.
âI was just saying, Dad. If you keep tapping like this, youâll make your smart and cute daughter stupid,â Lu Wangshu pouted, playing the innocent.
âDad, donât worry,â Lu Qingshan nodded in response.
âFather, Iâd like to spar with Qingshan, to see the gap between us,â Lu Quanzhen said at this moment, looking at Lu Changsheng.
Although he felt his combat prowess was not as good as Lu Qingshanâs, he wanted to see the specific gap.
