Lu Chengfeng's pupils constricted, her face changed drastically. Behind Yu Shui, there were three figures. Two of them were her Third Junior Sister, Li Qin, and Fourth Junior Sister, Rong Hua. At this moment, they were standing next to a tall figure.
That figure was wearing a moon-white palace dress, her long hair flowing, her temperament transcendent. There was a crescent mark between her eyebrows.
"Master!?"
Although her temperament was different from her memory, her eyes and appearance confirmed that it was her master.
"Feng'er!"
The Palace Master of the Moon God Palace, also known as Moon Reverence, looked at Lu Chengfeng with a trace of complexity in her eyes.
This fleeting look was not noticed by Lu Chengfeng's four junior sisters, but Yun Shuang saw it clearly.
Most importantly, she couldn't see through the cultivation of Lu Chengfeng's master.
This was surprising.
Unless Lu Chengfeng's master's cultivation was similar to or surpassed hers, it would be impossible to escape her eyes.
But she had heard before that Lu Chengfeng's master, the Master of the Sword of Eternal Regret, was only at the peak of the Returning to One Realm before she disappeared.
She didn't believe that anyone could go from the Returning to One Realm to the Immortal Reverence Realm or even beyond in just a few thousand years. Even her father wasn't that perverted back then.
Unless, the woman she couldn't see through was no longer Lu Chengfeng's original master.
Yun Shuang noticed Moon Reverence's strangeness, and Moon Reverence naturally noticed Yun Shuang as well.
She looked at Yun Shuang and frowned slightly. Lu Chengfeng immediately introduced, "Master, this is Yun Shuang, my teacher's daughter, and also my senior sister."
Moon Reverence nodded slightly. The cultivation world never shied away from a disciple having multiple masters or teachers. To become an unparalleled powerhouse, one naturally needed to draw on the strengths of many.
However, just a daughter possessing the cultivation of an Immortal Reverence... Just who exactly is Feng'er's teacher?
Yun Shuang was shocked, feeling like she had been seen through.
The other party's cultivation was higher than hers!
She was sure of this.
"Senior, what is the origin of that person?" Yun Shuang secretly asked the Longevity Cauldron, while on the surface, she calmly nodded in response to Moon Reverence.
"She has comprehended the meaning of Extremity!" the Longevity Cauldron replied.
What?
Yun Shuang was surprised. The meaning of Extremity was a prerequisite for advancing to Immortal Emperor, the cornerstone of an Immortal Emperor. Basically, once one comprehended the meaning of Extremity, becoming an Immortal Emperor was only a matter of time. Perhaps even a sudden enlightenment could cross the final threshold, like Devouring Spirit, becoming an Immortal Emperor.
It's just, when did the meaning of Extremity become so easy to comprehend?
First Devouring Spirit, and now another one. She had encountered two in just a few decades.
How big were the myriad realms? There were so many Immortal Reverences, yet she had encountered two. Was she lucky, or had many Immortal Reverences in the myriad realms already comprehended the meaning of Extremity?
Or, were the myriad realms undergoing an unknown evolution?
After advancing to Demon Reverence, she vaguely felt an unprecedented atmosphere.
"What about my brother? What's his situation now?" Yun Shuang asked curiously.
"Gu Sheng, as long as he digests the Dao injury, he will almost comprehend the meaning of Extremity," the Longevity Cauldron said.
"Digest the Dao injury? Could it be that my brother deliberately suffered the Dao injury?" Yun Shuang was shocked. That was a Dao injury! A bad outcome would mean death and the dissipation of the Dao.
"Not deliberately, but also a blessing in disguise, avoiding countless years of detours," the Longevity Cauldron said with emotion.
"How amazing!" Yun Shuang suddenly felt a little ashamed. Just now, she was still saying she wanted to avenge her brother. An enemy who could leave a Dao injury on her brother was obviously extremely powerful in the Immortal Reverence Realm. She had just become a Demon Reverence and didn't have a Demon Emperor Palace. She couldn't achieve invincibility among Immortal Reverences and Demon Reverences.
"Little Master, don't underestimate yourself. You are also very powerful," the Longevity Cauldron said.
"Thank you for the praise, Senior." Yun Shuang thought the Longevity Cauldron was praising her and didn't take it seriously.
The Longevity Cauldron didn't say much upon seeing this. How could the master's daughter be weak in combat power? The Little Master would naturally know how powerful she was in the same realm in the future.
On the other side, Lu Chengfeng invited Moon Reverence into the house and personally made tea for her.
"Master, please have tea!" Lu Chengfeng suppressed the excitement in her heart, trying to appear calm and composed.
Moon Reverence took the tea and took a sip. Although she had drunk countless spiritual teas and immortal teas better than this, when she saw Lu Chengfeng's expectant eyes, her heart softened, and she said, "Not bad!"
"Thank you, Master." Lu Chengfeng burst into a smile brighter than ever.
She had been taken in as a disciple by her master since she was young. Her master treated her like a daughter, and she treated her master like a mother. Being recognized by her master made her happier than proving her Dao to the Supreme Realm.
"I heard from Yu Shui and the others that you reached the top of the Heavenly Ladder with the posture of someone who had not yet become a Saint, and became the Peak Master of the Peak of Eternal Regret. Is this true?" Moon Reverence asked.
Lu Chengfeng nodded and said, "Actually, it was all thanks to the teacher. In the Heavenly Ladder space, I met the teacher. She taught me supernatural powers, which allowed me to reach the top of the Heavenly Ladder smoothly."
"Your teacher must be an extraordinary figure," Moon Reverence said with a smile.
"The teacher is indeed a very extraordinary figure. I think that whether it is before or after ancient times, there will never be a powerhouse like the teacher again."
Lu Chengfeng said very seriously.
"Is that so? That's amazing!" Moon Reverence was surprised, but she thought that Lu Chengfeng said this because of her experience. However, from Yun Shuang, she could know that the teacher Lu Chengfeng mentioned was stronger than her.
Immortal Emperor, or Path Breaker?
But it had nothing to do with her. She had already comprehended the meaning of Extremity, and becoming an Immortal Emperor was only a matter of time.
"You all have worked hard these years," Moon Reverence said gently, looking at Lu Chengfeng and her daughters.
"Master, these are all things that disciples should do. How can there be any talk of hard work?"
"Yes, Senior Sister is right. This is what we should do, not hard work."
"Now that Master is back, everything we have done is worth it."
"As long as Master returns safely."
The four junior sisters spoke one sentence each.
Yun Shuang felt that she was a bit redundant and wanted to leave, but seeing them chatting so enthusiastically, she was afraid that her movements would break their atmosphere. For a time, leaving was not an option, and not leaving was not an option either.
Lu Chengfeng did not feel that Yun Shuang was redundant at all, because she had already regarded Yun Shuang as one of her own.
"Master, where have you been all these years?" Lu Chengfeng asked at this time.
Upon hearing this, the smile on Moon Reverence's face stopped.
She looked at her four disciples.
Since she founded the Moon God Palace, she had never accepted disciples.
When she fused with the last spiritual body, which was the Master of the Sword of Eternal Regret, the Master of the Sword of Eternal Regret had a condition, which was to recognize her memory. Otherwise, the Master of the Sword of Eternal Regret would not actively fuse.
For Moon Reverence, whether it was the main body or the spiritual body, all the memories were real, but the one who dominated was the main body.
The meaning of the Master of the Sword of Eternal Regret was actually very simple, which was to let her recognize these four disciples.
So after leaving seclusion, she came.
"I am Moon Reverence, and I am also your master, the Master of the Sword of Eternal Regret," she said quietly.
Including Yun Shuang, everyone's eyes shook.
Yun Shuang's eyes flickered, and soon, she knew what was going on.
