Chapter 2084: Chapter 689: Chaos Wanxiang, Shocking the Entire Hall! Silence! Stillness! In an instant, the entire grand hall was silent, as quiet as a pin drop! Apart from Hong Lian and Absolute Sword True Monarch, all the cultivators present looked at Lu Changsheng with expressions of shock and disbelief, feeling that it was incredible, making their scalps tingle. Has it been resolved? The disguise of Star Hiding Hermit was not seen through by them before, and just now he erupted with the cultivation and magical power of the Peak of Core Formation, only to be directly subdued by the Dream City Master without any ability to resist. "Clatter——" At this moment, Hong Lian threw out the Demon Binding Lock, tightly tying up the Star Hiding Hermit, who was vomiting blood and was unable to move due to being suppressed by the anomaly. In the next moment, the chaos dissipated, and the world became clear. Everyone looked at the Great Dream City Lord standing above the grand hall. Although still elegant and handsome, a new sense of might and grandeur enveloped him, like an unparalleled sovereign beyond the mundane, compelling everyone to prostrate at his feet. "Is this the true appearance of the Great Dream City Lord?" "Before, his demeanor and conversation were so gentle and refined, I thought he was a kind senior, but I didn’t expect..." "This Great Dream City Lord must have broken through to Nascent Soul!" The cultivators present were repeatedly astounded, utterly shocked to the core. Even though there had been speculation that the Great Dream City Lord was a Nascent Soul cultivator, witnessing it firsthand was still hard to believe. "Is this... body cultivation divine skill?" As a Nascent Soul cultivator, Absolute Sword True Monarch recognized it as a divine skill related to body cultivation. "According to intelligence, this Great Dream City Lord practices magical dual cultivation, so he is not a Third Rank body refiner, but a Fourth Rank body cultivator?" Even Absolute Sword True Monarch was astonished by Lu Changsheng’s situation. In the Cultivation World, although there are quite a few Fourth Rank magical dual cultivators, such individuals are still rare. As for someone in the Core Formation Stage having Fourth Rank body refining, Absolute Sword True Monarch hadn’t considered it. After all, in dual cultivation, breaking through to Fourth Rank body refining before breaking through to Nascent Soul is completely illogical. "But based on early intelligence, this person’s strength didn’t seem like that of a Nascent Soul True Lord... could he have been injured and is recuperating hidden in the Great Dream Immortal City?" Absolute Sword True Monarch was puzzled, unable to fathom Lu Changsheng’s situation. "However, given this level of strength and the previously displayed demeanor, this person must definitely be a Nascent Soul cultivator." "Even his wife is a Nascent Soul cultivator!" Absolute Sword True Monarch thought to himself. Regardless, displaying battle prowess at the Nascent Soul level, their Heavenly Sword Sect must regard him seriously! "Well done, Daoist." He looked at Lu Changsheng above the grand hall and praised. Although if he took action, it would only take one sword. But undeniably, Lu Changsheng’s methods were astonishing, suppressing a Peak of Core Formation cultivator from the Shadow Sect without even lifting a finger, merely through anomalies. "You’re too kind, Daoist." Lu Changsheng chuckled lightly, serene and unperturbed, as if he had only resolved a trivial matter. But seeing the shock among the cultivators in the hall, he was very pleased with the effect of his divine skills. "The Shadow Sect’s methods in disguise and camouflage are quite exceptional, how did you recognize it, Daoist?" Absolute Sword True Monarch looked towards Lu Changsheng and asked. The Shadow Sect is proficient in assassination, escape, concealment, and disguise. If not for Star Hiding Homing blasting out with all his strength, even he wouldn’t have seen through the situation. "In my early years, when I took over the Immortal City, I cleared out some lurking minor threats, among whom was a cultivator from the Shadow Sect, so I remembered this magic aura." Lu Changsheng replied casually. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞 However, these words left the cultivators in the hall in utter shock and disbelief. The Immortal City had been cleared once? To recognize the Shadow Sect’s near-perfect disguise with just the magic aura from years ago? If the Shadow Sect’s disguises were so easily recognized, they wouldn’t be able to infiltrate and penetrate many cultivation nations, gather intelligence, or even assassinate and subvert cultivators and forces of other nations.
