Martial God: Grinding from Mortal Flesh to Immortality

"Perhaps... it won't be long before Emperor Bai comes to find you. When that happens… if Emperor Bai proposes to take you as his apprentice, you don't need to worry about the Life Factions or about me, just accept it directly!"

Gumo said seriously to Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng was taken aback, but he didn't mind it much. Seeing the serious expression on Gumo's face, Lu Sheng thought for a moment and then nodded.

Gumo smiled and said, "Don't worry, becoming Emperor Bai's apprentice has immense benefits. Even someone like me, who is at the eighth tier, would gladly accept if I could become Emperor Bai's apprentice. You, kid, don't think it's a bad thing."

Lu Sheng smiled slightly and then chatted with Gumo for a while before ending the communication.

"Emperor Bai... would want to take me as his apprentice?"

After ending the communication, Lu Sheng pondered for a moment. He decided not to dwell on it and started browsing some documents from Star River University.

He was preparing to find a special protection method for the Martial Immortal Villa.

As the foundation of the Martial Immortal Villa.

However, before Lu Sheng could find a suitable array or special life form in the vast sea of documents, he felt waves of energy emanating from the White Emperor's Order.

The next moment, an extremely powerful energy instantly swept through the Cosmic Void, and then the figure of Emperor Bai appeared within the range of the Life Factions and the Martial Immortal Villa.

With Emperor Bai's arrival, all the beings within the Life Factions and the Martial Immortal Villa looked up at Emperor Bai, and their eyes brimmed with fervor.

"Emperor Bai! It's Emperor Bai!"

"Emperor Bai actually came here!"

The students of the Life Factions and the Martial Immortal Villa gazed at Emperor Bai with fervent eyes, with some even kneeling in worship.

Even the sixth-tier powerful Yang Zhenyun showed an excited expression upon seeing Emperor Bai.

As the first and only galactic life form in the Martial Artist System, Emperor Bai naturally received the respect and faith of all martial artists.

"We... pay our respects to Emperor Bai!"

Everyone bowed slightly to Emperor Bai in unison.

Seeing this, Lu Sheng also stepped out of the Celestial Brilliance Star, came before Emperor Bai, and bowed respectfully.

In the next moment, Liu Yao, who was still healing, also walked out of the lab, dragging her frail body, and bowed to Emperor Bai.

"Greetings to Emperor Bai!"

Emperor Bai looked at Liu Yao and Lu Sheng, smiling slightly, and finally, fixed his gaze on Lu Sheng, saying, "Whether it's repelling the alien invasion or the Ascension plan of the Lord of Ascension, you have contributed greatly."

"Therefore, today I personally came to give you Star River University's reward. If you have any wish, you can say it directly, and I will grant it."

"Even... if you wish to become my apprentice!"

Upon hearing this, a look of astonishment surfaced on Liu Yao's face.

Emperor Bai... appreciates Lu Sheng so much that he's willing to lower himself to accept him as his apprentice?

Liu Yao quickly looked at Lu Sheng, and transmitted to him, "Lu Sheng, being accepted as Emperor Bai's apprentice is a rare opportunity. Trust me, becoming his disciple will greatly benefit your future path!"

While being happy for Lu Sheng, Liu Yao also quickly urged him.

Such occurrences are too rare. It's unknown how many years have passed since Emperor Bai last accepted a disciple, and all his disciples are at the pinnacle of the Martial Artist System.

So, Liu Yao felt the need to remind Lu Sheng about this opportunity.

Emperor Bai, naturally aware of Liu Yao's transmission, didn't mind and just watched Lu Sheng with a smile.

From the first time he learned about Lu Sheng until now, Lu Sheng's every performance had greatly impressed Emperor Bai, so he had long considered taking Lu Sheng as a disciple.

He was just looking for the right opportunity.

But, despite Liu Yao's urging and Gumo's previous reminder, Lu Sheng did not immediately respond. After pondering for a moment, he said to Emperor Bai.

"Emperor Bai, could you possibly expel the decaying force within my senior sister and heal the Heaven-Reaching Vine of the Life Factions? If so, I would like the school to provide a special protection method for the Martial Immortal Villa!"

At these words, Liu Yao was completely stunned.

She did not expect that faced with such a temptation, Lu Sheng could remain unmoved and even use his wish on others.

For a moment, Liu Yao felt touched but still couldn't help reminding Lu Sheng.

"Lu Sheng! What are you doing? My injuries will heal in a few hundred years, and the Heaven-Reaching Vine will also self-repair; it's just a matter of time. But if you miss the chance to become Emperor Bai's disciple, it's a huge loss!"

Liu Yao tried to dissuade Lu Sheng, but his expression remained calm as he looked at Emperor Bai.

To Lu Sheng, becoming Emperor Bai's disciple wasn't that important. Given the existence of the system panel, as long as he followed the steps to cultivate, he would eventually become more powerful and potentially even achieve the status of a galactic life form.

Thus, becoming Emperor Bai's disciple didn't hold much allure for Lu Sheng.

Instead, the three tasks before him were the most important.
