Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques Chapter 1294 383: Lu Changsheng Returns, All Lu City Is Shaken! Beneath Immortals, All Are Ants!

Lu Changsheng's heart trembled. Void Realm!

The name itself sounded utterly ordinary, devoid of any grandeur. It certainly didn't evoke the image of a world-shattering Divine Skill.

Yet, upon grasping the true nature of this 'Void Realm' Divine Skill, even someone as serene as Lu Changsheng found it difficult to maintain his composure.

As its name suggested, the Void Realm was an illusory world, existing in stark contrast to the tangible reality surrounding them. While the real world teemed with elements like wind, fire, thunder, lightning, flora, fauna, time, and space, the Void Realm was fundamentally different.

It was characterized by an absolute absence of anything, embodying the very concept of 'nothingness.' Consequently, a newly formed Void Realm possessed no inherent utility. It couldn't be used for offense or to aid in Cultivation.

However, the Void Realm could be imbued with substance. Cultivators could fill this empty space based on their personal comprehension of the heavens, earth, and the myriad things within reality. For instance, a cultivator who had attained understanding of Thunder could infuse their Void Realm with it, manifesting thunderous phenomena within that illusory domain.

Similarly, if a cultivator comprehended rivers and lakes, their Void Realm would mirror this, containing such aquatic landscapes. In essence, the Void Realm served as a blank canvas, allowing a cultivator to 'paint' upon it with their unique insights. Whatever was depicted would manifest within the Void Realm.

Its primary function was straightforward. Although illusory and incapable of affecting the real world, the Void Realm could be perceived by consciousness. Once it enveloped a sentient being, their consciousness would become ensnared within the Void Realm, with escape only possible by breaking through its illusory confines.

Naturally, the cruder and less developed the Void Realm, the less effective it would be. If Lu Changsheng were to carelessly populate his Void Realm with concepts he hadn't truly comprehended, it would be akin to applying a weak paste – a deception for himself and others, ultimately useless.

Furthermore, the Void Realm's utility extended beyond offense, defense, and entrapment; it also served as a powerful aid in Cultivation. As the Void Realm became more complete, a cultivator's consciousness immersing into it would be akin to entering a simulated reality. Any aspect of Cultivation they wished to practice could first be simulated within the Void Realm, with greater completeness leading to a more realistic simulation.

Moreover, Lu Changsheng received an unspoken revelation: should the Void Realm reach perfect completion, becoming indistinguishable from reality, it held the potential to transform into a true World. The concept of turning 'Void into Reality' was staggering. The sheer terrifying power of such a Divine Skill, capable of containing an entire World within oneself, was almost unfathomable.

Lu Changsheng shook his head, acknowledging that this ultimate potential was far beyond his current reach. His journey with the Void Realm hadn't even truly begun, let alone approached its final culmination. Nonetheless, this revelation undeniably highlighted the immense potential inherent in the Void Realm.

Based on the three Divine Skills derived from the Dao Fruits, one could readily ascertain the relative potential among the three Immortal paths. Undoubtedly, the Red Dust Immortal Dao possessed boundless potential, exceeding even the wildest imagination of ordinary cultivators.

“Hoo…” Lu Changsheng exhaled deeply. He observed that after employing a Divine Skill once, the brilliance of the three Dao Fruits seemed to have slightly diminished. This was a known phenomenon: the Divine Skills within Dao Fruits were bestowed by providence, and each usage placed a strain upon the fruit. Excessive use could even lead to its collapse.

Typically, ordinary Divine Skills could only be utilized around ten times. While an increase in cultivation and the advancement of the Dao Fruit could marginally extend this usage count, the improvement wouldn't be substantial. As the Dao Fruit matured, the power of the Divine Skill also escalated, meaning the strain per use would remain significant.

Consequently, Immortals generally avoided employing their Dao Fruit Divine Skills unless absolutely necessary, as doing so signified a fight for survival. This underscored the critical importance of an Immortal's conventional methods.

Lu Changsheng briefly assessed his own capabilities. Arts like his Killing Life Dao, Annihilation Divine Eye, and Heaven-Flipping Seal, among others, had begun to lag behind his current cultivation level. They required refinement to serve effectively as his conventional techniques. Optimization wasn't a significant hurdle; with his current cultivation, the power of these conventional methods could be substantially amplified, making them formidable even among True Immortals.

However, Lu Changsheng did not linger any longer in the Xueze Mountain Range. His breakthrough had already generated a considerable disturbance./

This location, therefore, was deemed unsuitable for extended stays.

"Whoosh."

Without a moment's hesitation, Lu Changsheng transformed into a dazzling streak of light, hurtling towards the outskirts of the Blood Swamp Mountain Range.

...

Within the city of Lu, the Qi Family...

The Qi Family's enterprises thrived, experiencing a period of unprecedented growth.

The clan's influence was visibly on the rise, a fact keenly observed and understood.

Qi Guangmao, along with every member of the Qi Family, was acutely aware of the sole reason behind this ascendancy.

It was all thanks to the esteemed "Ancestor Lu" who had pledged his service to the Qi Family.

However, as the passage of time marched on...

Especially after more than three years had elapsed without incident.

A gradual realization began to dawn upon everyone.

The Qi Family's "Ancestor Lu" appeared to have completely withdrawn from public view, no longer making any appearances.

Not only had he vanished, but not a single whisper or rumor of his whereabouts surfaced.

For a considerable period, despite all attempts at subtle inquiry, the Qi Family remained unresponsive.

A seed of doubt began to sprout in some hearts.

Could it be that Ancestor Lu had already departed from the Qi Family's service?

If such a scenario were to materialize, the repercussions for the Qi Family would be catastrophic.

Given the Qi Family's current soaring prominence, the loss of "Ancestor Lu's" protection would instantly transform them into a tempting prize for all the major powers in Lu City, ripe for the plundering.

On a particular day, Qi Yutang furnished Qi Guangmao with a detailed report on the Qi Family's present circumstances.

"Father, merely a few days ago, the Chen Family abruptly halted their business dealings with us."

"Their stated reason was an inability to procure the volume of goods required, requesting our patience while they devised a solution and arranged for the transfer of merchandise."

Qi Yutang's voice carried a distinct note of anxiety.

"Is that so?"

"If Ancestor does not return, the Chen Family will merely be the first domino to fall; they will certainly not be the last."

Qi Guangmao responded with a somber shake of his head.

Despite the gravity of the situation, his tone remained remarkably composed.
