Top-Class Comprehension: Start with Basic Fist Techniques Chapter 1351 397: The Great Immortal of the Crimson Moon Appears, Overwhelming All Immortals

Floating in the ethereal void, Lu Changsheng surveyed the populace of Red Moon City far below.
His conspicuous arrival in Red Moon City wasn't his own plan; it was the brainchild of Lu Great Immortal.
As per Lu Great Immortal's decree, while others might opt for discretion, Lu Changsheng absolutely had to make a grand entrance.
The reason? Lu Changsheng needed to 'establish his reputation'.
And to achieve this notoriety, a high-profile presence was indispensable.
As it transpired, this 'Longevity True Immortal,' Lu Changsheng, wasn't entirely unknown.
A considerable number of individuals were already acquainted with the legend of the 'Longevity True Immortal.'
"My friend Lu, observe. Many below recognize you," Lu Great Immortal remarked with a grin.
Despite this being his strategy for 'making a name,' it necessitated Lu Changsheng performing a suitably 'grand entrance' to match.
Subsequently, astonishing news was slated to reverberate concerning the 'Longevity True Immortal' and his three pieces of Dao Fruit.
This information, once disseminated, was even more sensationally charged than expected.
A significant portion of the onlookers expressed doubt, reluctant to accept the claims at face value.
Three pieces of Dao Fruit, indeed?
Without witnessing such a marvel with their own eyes, widespread belief was unlikely.
At this juncture, the attention of numerous True Immortals also shifted towards Lu Changsheng and Lu Great Immortal.
"Hmph, Lu Great Immortal intends to forge a reputation by leveraging this Longevity True Immortal?"
"Rumor has it the Longevity True Immortal has amassed three pieces of Dao Fruit. This intelligence originated from Lu City, likely deliberately planted by Lu Great Immortal. But what does Lu Great Immortal take us for? Three pieces of Dao Fruit? Such an outrageous fabrication, how could Lu Great Immortal even conceive of it?"
"Precisely. If it were two pieces of Dao Fruit, then a sliver of possibility might exist. But three pieces of Dao Fruit? That's sheer fantasy, utterly impossible! Lu Great Immortal's arrival in Red Moon City suggests he believes this city is foolish enough to desire it."
"The Red Moon Great Immortal would scarcely be so unwise as to fall for such transparent and clumsy deceit."
"Let us simply observe. Lu Great Immortal's gambit to build his fame is destined for failure, perhaps even resulting in a backlash."
These True Immortals were all well-acquainted with Lu Great Immortal.
They had even accurately surmised his underlying intentions.
Yet, not a single one of them harbored any belief in Lu Changsheng's capability to gather three pieces of Dao Fruit.
Nevertheless, no one stepped forward to obstruct the progress of Lu Great Immortal and Lu Changsheng.
Presently, the situation within Red Moon City remained ambiguous, and no one was inclined to foolishly antagonize Lu Great Immortal and Lu Changsheng at this time.
At the very least, they would bide their time further.
To await the ultimate decision rendered by the Red Moon Great Immortal.
As evening descended, Lu Changsheng and Lu Great Immortal were provided accommodations within the esteemed City Lord Mansion of Red Moon City.
However, it was not the Red Moon Great Immortal himself who extended the personal welcome, but rather a representative True Immortal from the City Lord Mansion.
The emissary conveyed that the Red Moon Great Immortal was presently engrossed in recuperating his state in preparation for the third physical tribulation and was thus unavailable to personally greet them.
Lu Changsheng and Lu Great Immortal expressed no displeasure.
They were keenly aware of the circumstances.
Even though the Red Moon Great Immortal was not personally present, no significant event unfolding within Red Moon City could possibly escape his notice.
He was undoubtedly apprised of their arrival.
The City Lord Mansion was already a hub for numerous True Immortals.
The majority of these were Great Immortals.
In comparison, True Immortals of Lu Changsheng's caliber were relatively uncommon.
However, the demeanor exhibited by these resident True Immortals was far from cordial.
Each glance conveyed a measure of scrutiny, even a subtle undercurrent of animosity.
After all, those who managed to reach Red Moon City were invariably competitors.
Furthermore, given Lu Great Immortal's ostentatious display today, who among them was unaware of his objective concerning Red Moon City?
As competitors, a congenial attitude was naturally out of the question.
Lu Changsheng and Lu Great Immortal subsequently entered their designated chamber.
Lu Changsheng voiced his observation directly, "It appears a significant number of True Immortals are present on this occasion, with many of them being Great Immortals."
"And due to our 'establishment of reputation,' it has evidently stirred dissatisfaction amongst numerous True Immortals."
"We have now become the collective focus of their attention."
Lu Great Immortal offered a faint smile and responded, "Worry not, this outcome was entirely foreseen. These Immortals are our rivals; it is only natural that they harbor dissatisfaction towards us."
"Moreover, this is Red Moon City; the Red Moon Great Immortal has not yet met his demise. Who would dare to instigate conflict within the confines of Red Moon City?"
"Our true objective in 'making a name' is not to impress these Immortals, but to capture the attention of the Red Moon Great Immortal. Once he takes notice, he will undoubtedly command an investigation, and upon investigation, he will ascertain that my friend Lu has indeed successfully gathered three pieces of Dao Fruit."
—It will be at that time that the Great Immortal Red Moon naturally makes his own decision. This is far better than us racking our brains and striving to persuade the Great Immortal Red Moon.—
Lu Changsheng nodded.
It was indeed the case.
If they had rushed to find the Great Immortal Red Moon upon their arrival in Red Moon City and told him that Lu Changsheng had gathered three Dao Fruits, who would have believed it?
Conversely, the Great Immortal Red Moon might have harbored other suspicions.
Only by capturing the Great Immortal Red Moon's interest and prompting his personal investigation would he be thoroughly convinced.
Consequently, Lu Changsheng and Great Immortal Lu could only do one thing now.
That was to wait!
Within a secluded chamber at the City Lord's Mansion of Red Moon City.
The Great Immortal Red Moon's eyes snapped open.
A hint of curiosity flickered within his gaze.
—Longevity True Immortal?—
The Great Immortal Red Moon was somewhat perplexed and uncertain.
Moments ago, Lu Changsheng and Great Immortal Lu had arrived together.
The disturbance they caused was rather significant.
The Great Immortal Red Moon was familiar with Great Immortal Lu, having even interacted with him previously.
In the Great Immortal Red Moon's estimation, Great Immortal Lu was merely a junior.
When the Great Immortal Red Moon ascended to Immortality, Great Immortal Lu was likely still in his infancy.
Therefore, he could only be said to know of him, without holding any profound memory of Great Immortal Lu.
However, with Great Immortal Lu now escorting this high-profile Longevity True Immortal to Red Moon City, the intention was clearly to attract his attention.
This, the Great Immortal Red Moon understood very well.
Yet, the discussions circulating within the city had left the Great Immortal Red Moon in a state of puzzlement and uncertainty.
