Chapter 669: Chapter 347: Escaping, Upgrading_2
If not for that woman in court dress, indeed, no one would have been able to retain Lu Yun.
But that woman was just too powerful, far surpassing the Celestial Human Realm.
All she could do was hope that the other party wasn’t coming for the Tianshe Fruit.
“Ah, had I known this would happen, I should never have involved Junior Brother Lu in the first place…”
Yuan Yao shook her head slightly, her beautiful eyes filled with regret.
At that moment—
“Be careful, someone is coming.” Chang Xiaorui’s figure halted, as she pointed in a certain direction.
Yuan Yao also immediately looked in that direction, and in her field of view, she saw a figure approaching rapidly. In the blink of an eye, the person was already in front of them.
“It’s Lu Yun!”
Upon seeing Lu Yun, both Yuan Yao and Chang Xiaorui breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially Yuan Yao, whose eyes showed an imperceptible trace of joy.
She had thought that Lu Yun was more likely to meet with misfortune than luck and that it would be extremely difficult for him to escape from the Tianshe Fruit competition.
Now, Lu Yun had appeared before her unharmed, which she truly found unbelievable.
“You two Senior Sisters, I’ve been waiting here for you a long time,” Lu Yun said with a smile. After arriving at the border of the Shanhan Dao Mansion, he found a hidden spot to recover to his peak state, and then sensed that someone was approaching rapidly.
With a slight probe of his consciousness, he found it was Yuan Yao and Chang Xiaorui, so he came to meet them.
“Junior Brother Lu, it’s simply wonderful that you’re unharmed,” Chang Xiaorui said excitedly, stamping her foot and not even considering how Lu Yun was completely unharmed and why he was here.
“The Tianshe Fruits are all with me. If something happened to me, how could I face you two Senior Sisters?”
As he spoke, Lu Yun, as if by magic, produced the Tianshe Fruits and handed them to Chang Xiaorui, who was in front of him.
“Ah… my Tianshe Fruit, I simply adore you, Junior Brother Lu,” exclaimed Chang Xiaorui, holding the Tianshe Fruit close to her chest, examining it over and over with overwhelming joy.
“Junior Brother Lu, how did you escape?”
Compared to Chang Xiaorui, Yuan Yao was more composed and also possessed extraordinary insight.
She immediately noticed that Lu Yun had arrived even earlier than they had, and from his stable aura, it seemed that he was not the one who had been in a fierce battle.
“I have a Divine Ability that’s extremely strong for preserving life; as long as I have the chance to use it, even someone in the Unity Realm can’t hold onto me,” Lu Yun explained.
This Divine Ability was not a secret to him; anyone with the intention to inquire would come to know of it.
However, he did not go into detail.
After giving another Tianshe Fruit to Yuan Yao, the trio continued on their way.
Four hours later, they returned to the Cold Lake Origin Vein, fortunate to have done so without encountering danger.
In contrast to the undercurrents stirring in Beihan Mansion and Shanhan Dao Mansion, the secluded Yuanyuan Mountain Range where the Cold Lake Origin Vein was located seemed relatively calm.
“Two Senior Sisters, I take my leave!”
Having obtained the Tianshe Fruit, Lu Yun couldn’t wait to convert it into Divine Power Value. After clasping hands with the two women, he promptly departed.
Watching Lu Yun’s departing figure, Chang Xiaorui sighed and said, “It won’t be long before a Heavenly Pride disciple with unparalleled fighting power appears in the Tai Yuan lineage of Qinghuo Palace.”
At the Third level of the Celestial Human Realm, he could crush many at the Eighth Grade, and even that Tianshe Fruit Tree, which was comparable to the Ninth Grade of the Celestial Human Realm, was easily severely damaged by him.
In her view, Lu Yun now possessed at least the fighting power of Sixth Realm.
A Heavenly Pride with Sixth Realm fighting power is also known as a Saint-Level Heavenly Pride.
A Saint-Level Heavenly Pride, even among saintly land-level forces, is exceedingly rare.
Yuan Yao said indifferently, “When he was in the Late Stage of the Golden Core, he possessed the strength of the Fourth level of the Celestial Human Realm.”
Hearing this, Chang Xiaorui stiffened.
“Late Stage Golden Core, Fourth level of the Celestial Human Realm fighting power? I didn’t hear wrong, did I?!!”
A Golden Core at the peak with the fighting power of Third Realm has a strength roughly equal to the ordinary First Rank of the Celestial Human Realm.
Which means, Lu Yun, at the Late Stage Golden Core, possessed the fighting power of the Eighth Grade!
Sixth Realm fighting power is Saint-Level Heavenly Pride.
Seventh Realm fighting power is Supreme-level Heavenly Pride.
Eighth Grade fighting power, isn’t that beyond all Heavenly Prides?!!
“During the Entry Level trial, at the First Rank of the trial, he scored in the top hundred.”
“Those in the top hundred are all Heavenly Prides from various Small Worlds, the weakest being at the First Rank of the Celestial Human Realm and all possessing fighting power above Third Realm.”
Yuan Yao’s red lips parted lightly, as she continued, “Originally, I thought that upon entering the Heavenly Human Realm, even if he couldn’t maintain the forbidden fighting power he had during the Late Stage of the Golden Core, the battle for the Heavenly Serpent Fruit showed that he now has at least the power of the Sixth Realm.”
“At least Sixth Realm fighting power… this is the thigh to cling to!” Chang Xiaorui’s beautiful, almond-shaped eyes seemed to shimmer like autumn water as her gaze unintentionally drifted towards the area of the ninth Origin Vein.
“If you want to firmly cling to this thigh, you have to work hard, because once you fall too far behind him, I’m afraid you won’t even have a chance to meet him.”
Yuan Yao’s lips curved slightly as she suddenly recalled Nangong Rui and Gongsun Zhonghong, who used to hang around Lu Yun a lot in the old days.
One was a Servant Disciple, the other an Outer Sect Disciple, there was a great chasm between them and Official Disciples, making it almost impossible to meet again.
Even if their relationships with Lu Yun were not good?
Very good.
The final result was that there was almost no chance of seeing each other.
If they couldn’t even meet, how could they continue to cling to his coattails.
Speaking of which, when Lu Yun had just returned to the Array Hall, he couldn’t help but sneeze.
He didn’t think much of it and, with a wave of his sleeve, tiny, glowing Heavenly Serpent Fruits appeared in front of him.
A total of sixteen, each with a serpentine pattern on them.
“My Cave Heaven World was opened by the Purple Extreme Golden Core, and that too under extreme conditions, I wonder if it’s possible to expand it further,” Lu Yun pondered in his heart.
“A total of sixteen Heavenly Serpent Fruits, might as well use one to try.”
With this in mind, Lu Yun grabbed one of the Heavenly Serpent Fruits and began the Refinement process.
Before refining, he sent out a wisp of consciousness to temporarily seal the senses of the panel.
A massive surge of energy flowed into his body, and Lu Yun directed this force to expand his Cave Heaven.
The barriers of the Cave Heaven World were incredibly tough, and long and high as well, so that even with the energy from the Heavenly Serpent Fruit, it couldn’t be shaken in the slightest.
In the end, after all the energy was exhausted, the Cave Heaven World remained unchanged.
Or perhaps there was a slight change, but for his Cave Heaven World that was nearly a million square feet in size, it was negligible, hardly noticeable.
“Ah, I knew it would come to this result.”
Lu Yun shook his head slightly, refocusing his attention on the Heavenly Serpent Fruits in front of him.
“The remaining fifteen Heavenly Serpent Fruits, once converted to Divine Ability Value, should be enough to raise my Cultivation Technique and various Divine Abilities by one grade.”
Next, Lu Yun became a devouring fiend, continuously refining the Heavenly Serpent Fruits.
This kind of day continued for an entire day.
“Panel.”
[Name]: Lu Yun
[Faction]: Ordinary Disciple of Tai Yuan One Vein, Green Flame Palace
[Cultivation Technique]: Pure Yang Martial Arts Canon (Heavenly Human Chapter, Third level 2%), Demon Slaying God-Killing Saber (Perfection, Eighth Grade Divine Ability), Heaven and Earth Draw Saber Slash (Perfection, Ninth Grade Divine Ability), Moksha Immeasurable (Perfection, Ninth Grade Divine Ability), Instant Horizon (Perfection, Eighth Grade Divine Ability), Nine Tribulations Secret (Entry Level, Seventh Grade Divine Ability, Incomplete)
[Innate Talent]: King-level Mid-grade
[Realm]: Third Level of the Heavenly Human Realm (Nineteen Rules)
[Divine Ability Value]: 1501 (Automatically increases by 0.2 daily)
[Luck Value]: 252,000 (Automatically increases by twelve daily, can be used to upgrade weapon grade.)
Fifteen Heavenly Serpent Fruits, after refining, produced one thousand five hundred Divine Power Points.
Seeing so many Divine Ability Points on the panel, even with Lu Yun’s state of mind, he couldn’t help but take a long, deep breath.
One Heavenly Serpent Fruit was one hundred Divine Ability Points, equivalent to five Pure Origin Pills.
If converted to Origin Stones, that would be two hundred and fifty Lower Grade Origin Stones, an amount of Cultivation Resources that ordinary disciples like Yuan Fei and Li Zhichang would take more than two years to accumulate.
Thinking of how he had squandered the equivalent of two hundred and fifty Lower Grade Origin Stones, Lu Yun felt incredibly regretful.
But he quickly cast it aside.
The most important thing now was to increase his strength.
