Within the hidden chamber, a subtly charged atmosphere prevailed.
The Great Immortal of Red Moon, cutting straight to the chase, desired to personally see Lu Changsheng's three Dao Fruits.
His approach was direct, devoid of any extraneous pleasantries.
It was evident the Great Immortal of Red Moon sought unequivocal confirmation.
The Great Immortal of Lu turned his gaze toward Lu Changsheng.
In this crucial moment, everything hinged upon Lu Changsheng.
Nevertheless, Dao Fruits are matters of profound secrecy.
Should any Immortal attempt to pry into another's Dao Fruit, it could easily spark intense disputes.
Such an action might even escalate into a full-blown conflict between two Immortals.
Lu Changsheng, too, was carefully considering his response.
After a substantial pause, Lu Changsheng finally spoke, his voice low: "Great Immortal of Red Moon, what are the implications if I possess three Dao Fruits? And what if I do not?"
Lu Changsheng understood that revealing his Dao Fruits to just anyone was not a simple matter.
These deeply personal and secret matters could not be casually disclosed, not even through a demonstration.
He required tangible benefits in return!
Alternatively, the Great Immortal of Red Moon needed to extend a firm promise.
The Great Immortal of Red Moon clearly grasped the unspoken implications behind Lu Changsheng's words.
He deliberated for a moment before slowly stating: "If Brother Lu truly possesses three Dao Fruits, then name your desire, and I shall grant it!"
"My desire?"
Lu Changsheng's eyes gleamed with a sudden spark.
"I desire Red Moon City."
"Very well."
The Great Immortal of Red Moon assented without hesitation.
His swift agreement caused Lu Changsheng's gaze to narrow slightly.
Had he actually agreed with such ease?
Yet, upon deeper reflection, wasn't the Great Immortal of Red Moon precisely gathering numerous Immortals in Red Moon City to find a 'protector' for it?
Now, it seemed the Great Immortal of Red Moon had indeed found one.
That individual was Lu Changsheng himself!
The prerequisite was that Lu Changsheng needed to showcase sufficient value!
"Excellent."
"Great Immortal of Red Moon, observe closely."
At this juncture, Lu Changsheng no longer held back.
With a mere exertion of his will, three Dao Fruits materialized instantly.
*Buzz*.
The Red Dust Dao Fruit!
The Myriad Spirits Dao Fruit!
The Blood and Flesh Dao Fruit!
These three Dao Fruits manifested, hovering serenely above Lu Changsheng's head.
The palpable pressure they emanated was undeniable.
Both the Great Immortal of Lu and the Great Immortal of Red Moon were struck by profound astonishment.
"It truly is three Dao Fruits..."
"Incredible, utterly unbelievable..."
The Great Immortal of Red Moon whispered, his mind reeling from the revelation.
It was as though he could scarcely accept the sight before him.
However, the three Dao Fruits floated undeniably in plain view.
This was the irrefutable truth!
"Magnificent!"
The eyes of the Great Immortal of Red Moon blazed with exhilaration.
Three Dao Fruits, genuine without a shadow of a doubt!
Lu Changsheng's potential was simply immeasurable.
"Brother Lu, should I unfortunately fail to survive my Body Tribulation this time, then the entirety of Red Moon City shall be yours."
"My only request is this: ensure Red Moon City endures!"
"Even if you must relocate Red Moon City into your own Dao Field, that is acceptable, provided Red Moon City is not eradicated from existence..."
This was the singular, solemn request from the Great Immortal of Red Moon.
Within Red Moon City resided his cherished kin, his trusted friends, his loyal subordinates, and many others dear to him.
He could not simply abandon them all without concern.
He felt compelled to entrust their fate to someone.
And that chosen individual was none other than Lu Changsheng!
The Great Immortal of Lu was filled with immense joy.
At long last, he had secured the promise of the Great Immortal of Red Moon.
Lu Changsheng accepted without refusal, nodding his head and stating: "I express my gratitude to the Great Immortal of Red Moon."
The Great Immortal of Red Moon released a deep sigh, "I shall formally announce this arrangement on a later occasion."
"At that time, I will first instruct all the Immortals currently within the city to depart from Red Moon City, to prevent any inconvenience to you."
"However, I can only guarantee your safety while I draw breath; should I perish..."
The Great Immortal of Red Moon left his sentence unfinished.
His unspoken meaning was crystal clear.
If he were to die, the fate of Red Moon City would rest entirely on Lu Changsheng's shoulders.
Red Moon City had been entrusted to Lu Changsheng's care.
Yet, its ultimate preservation would depend solely on Lu Changsheng's own capabilities.
"I understand."
Lu Changsheng acknowledged with a solemn nod.
Subsequently, the two bid their farewells and departed from the secret chamber.
At this moment, the Great Immortal of Red Moon felt a profound sense of peace.
He could now dedicate all his focus and energy towards confronting the imminent Body Tribulation.
However, it was widely understood that the likelihood of the Great Immortal of Red Moon successfully navigating his third Body Tribulation was exceedingly slim.
Nevertheless, even for the faintest glimmer of hope, the Great Immortal of Red Moon was prepared to give his absolute all.
Lu Changsheng and the Great Immortal of Lu returned to their shared courtyard.
An atmosphere of quietude settled upon them.
Neither ventured outside; they remained within the confines of the courtyard.
Time continued to tick by, day after day.
Until, three days later, the true form of the Great Immortal of Red Moon made his appearance.
He had summoned nearly every Immortal residing within Red Moon City.
Murmurs and speculation began to ripple through the assembled crowd.
Rumors circulated that the Great Immortal of Red Moon was contemplating a decision regarding the "entrustment" of Red Moon City.
But the crucial question remained: to whom would the Great Immortal of Red Moon bestow this responsibility?
This uncertainty hung heavy in the air.
Nevertheless, a few Immortals harbored growing suspicions.
After all, numerous Immortals had converged upon Red Moon City, yet only the Great Immortal of Lu and the Longevity True Immortal had received a personal invitation from the Great Immortal of Red Moon for a private audience.
Inside the grand main hall of the City Lord Mansion in Red Moon City.
A multitude, numbering in the dozens or even hundreds, of Immortals filled the space.
Such a significant congregation of Immortals, predominantly Great Immortals, was a sight seldom witnessed.
Many present engaged in hushed conversations, appearing to deliberate on a particular matter.
"Whoosh".
Shortly thereafter, a distinct figure materialized.
It was none other than the esteemed Lord of Red Moon City, the Great Immortal of Red Moon himself!
The instant the Great Immortal of Red Moon made his appearance, an absolute silence descended upon the entire hall.
His gaze swept across the assembled Immortals.
Among them, his eyes fell upon Lu Changsheng and the Great Immortal of Lu.
Drawing a deep breath, the Great Immortal of Red Moon then slowly addressed the crowd: "I am deeply appreciative of you all undertaking long journeys to bear witness to this event. You are all undoubtedly aware that the purpose of this gathering is my intent to entrust Red Moon City."
"As I prepare to face the Body Tribulation, the odds are stacked against me. Therefore, I wish to enact this act of entrustment, which is why I extended invitations to so many of you. From the moment you arrived in Red Moon City, I have been observing and evaluating each of you."
