Chapter 252 A True Dragon Matches a Divine Phoenix! All the bigwigs in the audience were stunned!
"belch."
Lu Sheng couldn't help but let out a burp that carried a strange purple-gold fragrance.
After swallowing that drop of "Time-Space Source Liquid," not only did my soul become as clear as if it had been polished, but my level 9 spiritual source value also reached its maximum.
"Good stuff, but too little of it, not even enough to fill a tooth gap."
Lu Sheng smacked his lips, still wanting more.
Such a treasure, capable of directly enhancing comprehension and spiritual power, would be priceless anywhere. It's only because this broken mirror, which would be smashed if not given away, that they squeezed out a drop like toothpaste.
He looked away, put his hands in his pockets, and prepared to examine whether there were any other opportunities to exploit around the platform.
Boom—!
The sea of clouds overhead, which had just calmed down, exploded again without warning.
If the previous strange phenomena were a one-man show caused by Lu Sheng, then this moment is the arrival of a true big shot.
Several terrifying auras, like comets falling from the sky, brutally tore through the ever-present immortal mist of Ascension Island, carrying a suffocating sense of oppression, and crashed straight towards the 1000th platform.
There was no attempt to conceal it.
There's no need to hide it.
That was the majesty of the true ruler of this real sea.
"Um?"
Lu Sheng raised his head slightly, his dark golden vertical pupils contracting slightly.
In his dragon-eyed vision, three energy bodies of different colors, yet equally vast and boundless, were rapidly approaching.
The person at the very front, shrouded in a palpable, blood-red aura, had barely landed when his booming, gong-like laughter made the white jade railings vibrate.
"Hahaha! Good lad!"
Boom!
A muffled thud.
A towering figure crashed heavily ten meters in front of Lu Sheng.
The newcomer was dressed in crimson armor, with a full head of red hair standing on end and a beard like steel needles. His large, copper-bell-shaped eyes were gleaming green as he stared intently at Lu Sheng. His gaze was not that of someone looking at a junior, but rather like that of a wolf that had been starving for three days seeing a sizzling piece of top-quality pork belly.
Followed by.
A fragrant breeze wafted over, and a beautiful woman dressed in palace attire, with an elegant appearance, stepped through the air and landed silently. Her beautiful eyes swept across the room, revealing undisguised amazement and scrutiny.
The last one to land was an elderly man with white hair and a youthful face.
His aura was the deepest, as if he were one with the heavens and earth. Just by standing there quietly, he gave people the illusion of being a towering mountain to look up to.
The Three Giants of Ascension Island!
Elder Xingtian, Elder Lingyao, and Grand Elder Li Xiaoyao!
Normally, these three people, who could shake the entire True Sea with a stomp of their feet, were now surrounding Lu Sheng in a triangular formation, like country bumpkins who had never seen the world watching a giant panda.
The atmosphere was extremely tense at one point.
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow, his body not retreating in the slightest despite the approach of these three terrifying auras.
Instead, he slightly adjusted his posture to make himself look more upright (arrogant).
"Several people..."
Looking at the three old men and women who seemed practically glued to his face, Lu Sheng's calm tone was almost irritating: "Are you planning a gang fight, or are you planning to assault them?"
"..."
Elder Li, who had just prepared a whole bunch of platitudes like "a prodigy has been born, and the human race is thriving," suddenly had a violent twitch at the corner of his mouth.
Elder Xingtian was taken aback, then burst into an even louder, more deafening laugh, and even stretched out his large, fan-like hand to forcefully slap Lu Sheng's shoulder.
"Hahaha! That temper! So arrogant! I like it!"
Snapped!
Lu Sheng did not dodge.
Xing Tian's slap could pulverize even special alloys, but when it landed on Lu Sheng's seemingly thin shoulder, it only produced a dull thud.
Several fine cracks appeared on the white jade bricks beneath Lu Sheng's feet, but he remained completely still.
He didn't even frown.
"hiss--"
Elder Xingtian withdrew his hand without changing his expression, his eyes burning with even greater fervor.
This physical body!
It's as hard as tempered steel! It's definitely a real dragon, no doubt about it!
"Don't be nervous, little one."
Elder Li glared at Xing Tian, trying to appear kind and amiable. "We old bones have just not seen any decent prospects in a long time, and we got excited and lost our composure."
"Let me reintroduce myself. I am Li Xiaoyao, the Grand Elder of Ascending Immortal Island."
"You are the first and only genius of this era to ascend to the Immortal Path with a ninth-level body and to trigger extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth."
Elder Li's tone became extremely solemn at this point, even carrying a hint of a promise.
"From this day forward, you will be the highest-ranking Dao Child on my Immortal Ascension Island."
"We'll give you people if you need people, and we'll give you supplies if you need supplies. Just ask for anything that's in this sea."
That's too much to say, too heavy a statement.
Even the beautiful woman in palace attire beside her glanced at her slightly, but she did not refute it, because she knew that the young man in front of her was worthy.
A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Sheng's eyes.
He originally thought that to gain a foothold on this Immortal Island, he would inevitably have to go through a process of showing off, getting humiliated, and flexing his muscles.
I didn't expect these old guys to be so savvy.
Did they just start fawning over him?
"So generous?" Lu Sheng looked at Elder Li suspiciously. "What if I said I wanted to take that mirror away?"
Elder Li: "..."
The beautiful woman: "..."
Elder Xingtian: "..."
Just as the elders were somewhat speechless at Lu Sheng's unpredictable train of thought,
Sudden.
"Chirp—!!!"
A loud, high-pitched phoenix cry, tinged with exhaustion yet still proud and unyielding, suddenly came from below.
Several elders instinctively turned their heads to look.
It was visible at the edge of the 999th step.
A hand, covered in bloodstains yet still fair and slender, gripped the edge of the platform tightly.
Followed by.
A figure, her body ablaze with flames, her red dress tattered, and looking somewhat disheveled, managed to flip herself over and stagger to her feet.
Luo Tianfei gasped for breath, sweat trickling down her beautiful face and instantly evaporating on her burning collarbone.
The first thing she did after she stood still was not to cheer or to take a deep breath.
Instead, she raised her phoenix eyes, which were burning with purple divine fire, and stared intently at the man who was standing with his hands in his pockets, looking completely relaxed.
"A big bug..."
Luo Tianfei gritted her teeth, her voice hoarse yet filled with a fierce edge: "You... ran so fast... were you in such a hurry to be reincarnated?!"
boom--!
With her sharp cry, the previously dim phoenix phantom behind her seemed to burst into flames again in response to its master's anger!
Purple flames surged to the heavens, and the divine phoenix spread its wings!
A terrifying aura, though not as domineering as a true dragon, but more noble and imbued with an aura of immortality, instantly swept across the entire platform.
Quiet.
A deathly silence.
Elder Li, who was just about to bargain with Lu Sheng, now had his eyes practically popping out of their sockets.
Elder Xingtian's mouth gaped open, his chin almost hitting his feet.
He glanced at Lu Sheng, who remained calm.
Then she glanced at Luo Tianfei, who, despite her disheveled appearance, exuded an aura of power.
"Holy crap?"
Elder Xingtian held back for a long time before finally blurting out a curse, his entire red face twitching.
"A divine phoenix? Or a pure-blooded divine phoenix that has awakened the immortal flame?!"
"Is this Ascension Road some kind of wholesale market?! How come these top-tier bloodlines, which only come around once in ten thousand years, are appearing in pairs like cabbages?!"
