Martial God: Grinding from Mortal Flesh to Immortality

Fifth Rank!

As soon as Lu Sheng's voice fell, even these disciples and elders who had already returned to the Wu Shen Sect were thoroughly shaken in their minds.

It must be understood, achieving the fifth rank is not an easy task.

Looking across the entire Three-eyed World, a fifth-rank strong individual can establish a sect and even become a top figure in the most elite forces of the Three-eyed World.

It can be said that once one enters the fifth rank, they are fully among the ranks of the top strong individuals in the Three-eyed World.

Now, the three elders, who were once nobodies in the former Inference God Dao, have merely relied on the Martial God Blood Stone to breakthrough to the fifth rank?

Many people have a tinge of skepticism in their hearts, but they said nothing, only looking at the three elders.

The three elders stared at the Martial God Blood Stone floating before them with an incomparably moved expression, eyes filled with excitement.

Even though they didn't know whether they could use the Martial God Blood Stone to break through the fifth rank, Lu Sheng's words were filled with temptation, causing them to involuntarily reach out and grasp the Martial God Blood Stone floating in front of them.

In an instant, the Martial God Blood Stone transformed into streams of scarlet energy, pouring into the third eye at their foreheads.

With the influx of the Martial God Blood Stone, their aura visibly began to increase at a rapid pace.

Time trickled away, and the three thousand Wu Shen guards, along with the dozen or so fourth-rank elders, were all fixated on the three elders, sensing the strong aura emanating from them.

Suddenly...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sounds of muffled explosions continued to erupt from the three, followed by three exclusive fifth-rank auras roaring out from them.

In the plaza, a blood-red storm instantly swept up, with three manifestations of Lu Sheng appearing behind them, akin to emperors walking among men, every gesture charged with an aura that made others shiver.

Rumbling!!

With the storm surging, the pressure of the fifth rank spread across the entire plaza!

"Fifth rank! They truly achieved the fifth rank!!"

"Doesn't this mean... our Wu Shen Sect, even without considering the Sect Leader, has surpassed the former Nether God Dao!!"

"Martial God... mighty!!"

Behind the three elders, a dozen fourth-rank elders were staring intently ahead, eyes filled with envy and longing.

The three elders achieved the fifth rank... Do they also have the chance to reach the fifth rank?

In an instant, every breath of the dozen fourth-rank elders and the three thousand Wu Shen guards became noticeably heavier.

Indeed, some people's eyes even turned somewhat bloodshot due to excitement.

"Thank you, Sect Leader!"

With the breakthrough of the three elders, their faces were filled with unmistakable smiles. They raised their heads, gazing directly at Lu Sheng, their eyes only containing gratitude.

They knew clearly that everything they had now was brought to them by Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng calmly watched this scene before him, naturally noting these people's reactions, which were precisely what he needed.

Lu Sheng stood on the high platform, speaking lightly: "Wu Shen Sect, rewards for contributions! Today, the three elders break through the fifth rank; in the future, you may also have the chance to break through to the fifth rank!"

"Fifth rank is merely a beginning. From now on, Wu Shen Sect opens the exchange for Martial God Blood Stone. Anyone with contributions can exchange for Martial God Blood Stone to strengthen themselves, or give it to their family and close ones."

Upon hearing this, the elders and Wu Shen guards in the plaza became even more fervent.

"Nonetheless, the only way to gain sect contributions is to expand Wu Shen Sect and strengthen it!"

"Our Wu Shen Sect is the sect force designated by the Martial God, and expanding its territory brings merit! Strengthening the foundation of Wu Shen Sect is merit!"

"Of course, I know that as the sect strengthens, sacrifices are inevitable, and some might die, but you don't need to worry!"

"If you die fighting for the sect, your merit will be raised by three grades. If you die outside the sect, Wu Shen Sect experts will personally return your Martial God Blood Stone to the sect and deliver it to your designated relatives."

"Furthermore, your families will receive the sect's protection and will prosper for a hundred years!"

With Lu Sheng's voice continually sounding from the high platform, the expression of the Wu Shen guards and even the elders became increasingly fervent.

"Now..."

Lu Sheng gazed down at the Wu Shen guards and even the sect elders, slowly speaking.

"Bring the entire world under Wu Shen Sect's rule!"

"Yes!!"

In an instant, the Wu Shen guards and even the elders loudly responded in unison, their voices echoing thunderously as if to pierce the sky itself.

Lu Sheng looked at the scene before him with satisfaction, then with a wave of his hand, handed over twenty thousand Martial God Blood Stones directly to the three great elders.

"I want you to deliver as many Cultivation Resources to me in the shortest time possible. Can you do it?"

The three great elders exchanged glances. Although they didn't know what Lu Sheng needed so many Cultivation Resources for, the things Lu Sheng had brought to them and the entire Martial God Sect during this period were evident to all.

At this moment, they had no opposition to Lu Sheng's decision, only... compliance.

"Yes!"

The three great elders did not hesitate, directly placing the twenty thousand Martial God Blood Stones into their bodies. Then, the three elders also led the Martial God Guard and a group of elders out of the square, heading in different directions beyond the Martial God Sect.

The expansion of the Martial God Sect... began at this moment!

The figure of Lu Sheng returned to the top of the mountain, overlooking the entire Martial God Sect, watching as the three great elders led many Martial God Guards out of the territory of the Martial God Sect, then withdrew his gaze.

"Now... I can begin cultivation!"

Lu Sheng said softly, involuntarily looking up towards the firmament above.

He could feel that as the Martial God Sect made its mark in the Three-eyed World, the world consciousness of the Three-eyed World was increasingly targeting him, although it had not yet fully manifested.

But Lu Sheng could also feel that almost at any time and anywhere, a gaze was continually watching and monitoring him.

"Getting closer and closer!"

Lu Sheng lightly spoke, then sat cross-legged on the mountain top, a terrifying suction force erupted within his body, instantly drawing all the surrounding Cultivation Resources into his body.

He began rapidly increasing the strength of his avatar.

...

With the three great elders leading teams, taking one Martial God Guard after another out of the territory of the Martial God Sect, launching attacks on other sect forces.

The best way to expand the Martial God Sect was to suppress other sect forces, incorporate the territories of other sect forces into the boundaries of the Martial God Sect, and naturally, the resources accumulated by these sect forces would also become those of the Martial God Sect.

Under the leadership of three fifth-tier powerhouses, the small forces and sects near the Martial God Sect were utterly suppressed under the impact of the Martial God Sect, collapsing like dry weeds.

As one small force after another was suppressed, there was an endless flow of resources continuously sent into the Martial God Sect, provided to Lu Sheng.

Even though the three fifth-tiers acted separately, because the Martial God body was originally Lu Sheng's, almost nothing in the same realm could contend with the three great elders.

So much so that even forces with fifth-tier powerhouses stationed were teetering in the face of the Martial God Sect's invasion, possibly being suppressed at any moment.

In an instant, the entire Three-eyed World seemed to plunge into chaos.

And above the firmament of the Three-eyed World, thunder repeatedly exploded, terrifying roars echoed across the firmament, causing ripples to arise in the surrounding void.

That was... the wrath of the Three-eyed World consciousness!

However, even as world consciousness, it could only rage impotently in the face of the Martial God Sect's mad expansion.

No help for it, the Three-eyed World was not a high-level Life Planet to begin with, the strongest in the Three-eyed World was only sixth-tier at most.

And now, Lu Sheng had already regained sixth-tier strength, becoming a force to reckon with.

Under such circumstances, even the world consciousness's targeting of Lu Sheng was not easy.

The only thing it could do... was to mobilize as much of the world consciousness's power as possible, amass all power, and engage in a final showdown with Lu Sheng.

Otherwise... all the means of the current world will could not affect Lu Sheng in the slightest.

It was precisely because of this that the world consciousness was frantically shaken, yet helpless.

...

At the same time, in the Three-eyed World, within an extremely magnificent palace.

Many extremely powerful figures stood within, each exuding an aura no less than the fifth-tier.

And seated in the seat of honor was a tall figure in a yellow robe, sitting on the throne, holding a blood-red crystal stone in his hand.

It was clearly the Martial God Blood Stone from the Martial God Sect.

"This thing... is the Postnatal Divine Treasure that the so-called Martial God Sect came up with?"

The leader spoke lightly, yet his voice was filled with an imposing aura that commanded obedience without express rage.

"Martial God Sect... such a Martial God Sect, in just a month, the territory expanded more than twice over, this speed... is not weaker even compared to our Celestial God Dao's expansion speed!"

The leader spoke lightly, yet there was a trace of coldness.

This person was clearly Ming Yunlong, the Sect Leader of the Celestial God Dao, one of the three top forces in the current Three-eyed World, and also one of the few sixth-tier powerhouses in the Three-eyed World!
