Chapter 1159: Chapter 1156: Gradually Gaining Fame Chapter 1159: Chapter 1156: Gradually Gaining Fame “Master, where are you taking me?”

“Is there any demon beast or ‘Cultivator’ that needs dealing with?”

In the void, the White Ape closely followed behind the White Lotus Avatar, his face showing excitement.

The one heading to the Fire God Palace was naturally the White Lotus Avatar, as Lu Xuan had already hidden within his personal spatial area to cultivate Spiritual Plants. However, the avatar and the original body shared the same will and were indistinguishable from each other, making them virtually no different.

“Do you still remember the Divine Monkey Hair we refined initially?”

Lu Xuan said gently.

“Of course, I remember.”

The White Ape immediately replied. It was a critical Treasure Item for his breakthrough, which even greatly increased his chances of advancing to the Seventh Grade Monster Beast, so he couldn’t have forgotten it.

“This time, I am taking you to personally visit that senior, the Fire God Ape.”

Lu Xuan said with a smile.

“Very well, Master!”

“Visiting that senior is secondary; the main thing is that I can accompany you and serve by your side.”

The White Ape complimented him, not forgetting to flatter.

“Ha ha!”

Lu Xuan couldn’t help laughing out loud, his body bursting with intense thunder light, wrapping around the White Ape as they entered deeper into the void.

In the past, when he traveled through the Void Domain, he would sit inside the Giant Sword Boat, using that Seventh Grade Treasure Item for protection to ensure his safety, thus rarely encountering any accidents. Occasionally, one or two monster beasts that appeared would be annihilated by his thunderous methods from within the Giant Sword Boat.

This time, with the presence of the White Lotus Avatar, he wanted to see more of the Cultivation World’s various landscapes.

Relying solely on his flesh body, he wielded the Thunder Escape Technique and moved at high speed through the void.

Along the way, he encountered spatial rifts, Yin Thunder, and fierce winds, which he resolved directly with his body.

“So this is how powerful the Nascent Soul Realm is!”

Lu Xuan watched with interest as a spatial rift in front of him was obliterated by his powerful Sword Qi, and he couldn’t help but exclaim inwardly.

“Ah? A blind monster beast is coming this way.”

His Divine Sense swept over the area and noticed a giant beast, over thirty feet long, hiding in the shadows and rapidly approaching him.

“Master, let me handle it!”

The White Ape stepped forward, his Sea-Calming Cudgel emerging from his ear and instantly enlarging.

“Little beast, watch as I break you with one sword!”

Lu Xuan flicked his finger, and seven deep cyan Sword Qi shot out like lightning, interacting from a distance and forming a powerful formation.

Before the giant beast could react, the seven Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Qi twisted around its body, instantly turning it into countless chunks of flesh and blood, with a rain of blood falling from the sky.

“Master is brilliant!”

The White Ape clapped and shouted.

Lu Xuan smiled silently.

He was already cultivating the second batch of Azure Profound Wither Bloom Sword Grass and had a deep understanding of the Sword Array applications. The Sword Qi he displayed was naturally not something an ordinary Sixth Grade Monster Beast could handle; he easily annihilated it with one sword.

“Such a build-up for a powerful release.”

He reflected inwardly.

Having planted so many Spiritual Plants over the years and harvesting countless Treasure Items and Divine Ability Secret Techniques, the emergence of the White Lotus Avatar finally gave him a chance to burst forth.

“While I still need to prioritize Spiritual Plants, I no longer have to act so cautiously in the future.”

He felt an eagerness in his heart.

After traveling in the void for several days, his sense of novelty slightly diminished. He took out the Giant Sword Boat to increase his speed.

Almost half a month later, he finally reached the Sunstrike Domain where the Fire God Palace was located.

“Rumors say that there are many Strange Fires in this realm; my Taiyi Pure Yang True Fire and Outer Heaven Flame Essence are not rare here. If there’s a chance, I might go and take a look around.”

Lu Xuan thought to himself as he entered the Sunstrike Domain.

Soon after, he hurried towards the location of the Fire God Palace.

Though the Fire God Palace was somewhat weaker than the Dongxuan Sword Sect, it still stood as a colossal entity within the Whole Sky Realm, occupying the region richest in pure Spiritual Energy.

“We’ve arrived.”

Lu Xuan came upon a boundless plateau.

Before his eyes lay a world of fire; the reddish ground occasionally erupted with fierce flames of various colors, creating various strange spectacles.

At times, one could see some creatures greatly associated with fire, thriving in such a special environment as comfortably as fish in water.

His gaze rested on a huge mass of fire clouds up ahead.

Within the fire clouds, huge demon beasts occasionally revealed fragments of their forms, their Spiritual Energy surging restlessly, as if they could incinerate everything in the world at any moment.

“This must be the Sect Protection Array of the Fire God Palace; it’s scarcely inferior to the Ten Directions Annihilation Sword Array of the Sword Sect.”

Lu Xuan sighed inwardly and then flew towards the majestic palace beneath the fire clouds.

The palace was situated at the highest point, stretching over a thousand miles, a sight to behold.

“Fire God Palace is a critical area, halt, Daoist up ahead!”

A loud shout rang out, followed by a tall “Cultivator” flying out from the entrance of the palace.

The “Cultivator” wore a red robe, his muscular body like coiled dragons, and his exposed skin was as red as rock; his fiery-red short hair stood up like spikes, full of vigor.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan halted in his tracks and waited with a smile for the “Cultivator” to approach.

“Junior has seen the True Monarch! If there was any disrespect just now, I hope Senior forgives me!”

The red-robed “Cultivator” swept his Divine Sense over him, instantly sensing Lu Xuan’s deep and ocean-like aura, drastically changing his expression and then respectfully bowed.

“Never mind, it’s your duty.”

Lu Xuan chuckled.

“May I know where the True Monarch is from? What brings you to the Fire God Palace? I shall inform the Sect elders inside.”

The red-robed “Cultivator,” having guarded the entrance of the Fire God Palace for many years, had seen numerous Nascent Soul True Monarchs and carried the demeanor of a Major Sect Disciple, asked calmly yet firmly.

“Dongxuan Sword Sect, Lu Xuan.”

“I came to the Fire God Palace merely to visit Senior Fire God Ape.”

“So, it’s Dongxuan Sword Sect’s Lu Xuan, the True Monarch. I have long admired your great reputation; today, I am finally fortunate to meet you!”

The red-robed “Cultivator” revealed a hint of surprise, then bowed again.

“How so, young friend, have you heard about Lu Mou here in the Fire God Palace?”

Lu Xuan asked with a half-smile.

“Of course, even before you advanced to the Nascent Soul, you were known for your profound expertise on the Path of Spiritual Plants.”

“After ascending to the Nascent Soul Realm, your reputation resounded through countless realms.”

The expression of the red-robed “Cultivator” was somewhat exaggerated.

However, his words were not false; Lu Xuan had developed several rare types of Sword Grass and had played a key role in the Sword Peak competitions, even influencing the rankings; naturally, he was well-known by numerous “Cultivators” in major sects like the Fire God Palace.

Upon advancing to the Nascent Soul, his reputation had become essential knowledge for Major Sect Disciples, committed to memory.

“Senior Lu, please wait a moment.”

“Senior Fire God Ape is currently in seclusion within the Cave Heaven of the palace, seldom appearing. I need to inform my sect uncle.”

“Alright.”

Lu Xuan nodded in agreement.

Relieved, the red-robed “Cultivator” released a strange serpent with fine golden scales from his sleeve. It passed through several layers of Prohibitions and Restrictions and entered the Fire God Palace like lightning.

After a few moments, a deep voice resonated from within the Fire God Palace.

“So, it is Daoist Lu Xuan from the Dongxuan Sword Sect, a rare visitor indeed. Fire God Palace is remiss in not welcoming you from afar. Please, Daoist, forgive us!”
