Lu Yuan even felt that his luck had played a huge role in this.
Otherwise, how could everything go so smoothly for him?
Of all the steps, only the first one was relatively easy.
The latter two were basically impossible to replicate.
If one wanted to cultivate Dharma Idol power at the Core Formation Stage, resources, talent, and luck were needed.
Furthermore, these requirements were all top-notch.
Lu Yuan had gathered almost half of the resources of the Lower Realm and had a system and a considerable amount of luck. Only with these resources, did he barely manage to cultivate a certain amount of Dharma Idol power when he was at the Level 8 Core Formation Stage.
Lu Yuan didn’t think that his success could be easily replicated.
Even if the people he was comparing himself to were a group of heavenly pride from the Upper Realm.
However, no matter how evildoers these heavenly pride were, they could not be as terrifying as his system.
Without the system, Lu Yuan felt that he could not cultivate to his current level.
However, he couldn’t be sure of the exact situation of the heavenly pride in the Upper Realm.
Ultimately, there is no point of reference for comparison.
If he could meet one or two heavenly pride from the Upper Realm, he would have a better judgment of his current strength and talent in comparison to the standards of the Upper Realm.
Before he had enough details about the Upper Realm, Lu Yuan felt that it was better for him to continue on a steady path.
As his cultivation approached the Nascent Soul stage, he began to feel the upper limit of this realm.
This feeling was quite mysterious, yet it was undeniably real.
Lu Yuan clearly knew that when he broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm, he would soon be heading to the Upper Realm.
However, even if he had reached the Nascent Soul Stage, he was not prepared to go to the Upper Realm immediately. Instead, he would make some preparations in advance before going.
After all, compared to the Lower Realm, which he had been operating for a long time, the Upper Realm was a place that he had never set foot in before.
Lu Yuan had no way of predicting the situation there or what he would encounter.
An accident was the thing that a steady person hated the most.
Lu Yuan hated being in a place full of surprises the most.
If not for the Lower Realm’s level restriction, he could have stayed here until the end of time.
Just as Lu Yuan was thinking about his future breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage and what preparations he had to make before going to the Upper Realm…
Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile had already quietly entered the mountain where Lu Yuan was located.
The strange thing was that although the two of them had encountered other cultivators before entering the mountain.
However, it was as if these cultivators could not see them and did not notice their presence at all.
Naturally, this was because the two of them had used some kind of special divine ability to hide their tracks.
It was not difficult for two Nascent Soul Realm cultivators from the Upper Realm to hide from a group of Foundation Establishment and Core Formation Stage cultivators from the Lower Realm.
Their target was Lu Yuan on the mountain.
They didn’t want to do anything to Lu Yuan. They just wanted to see what kind of person could attract Meng Ruyan.
Their pure gossipy hearts were at work.
However, just because ordinary people couldn’t discover them didn’t mean that Lu Yuan couldn’t.
Lu Yuan had already sensed their existence when they arrived at his Black Jade Peak.
Even Jing Ming, who was in the Apotheosis Stage, couldn’t fool Lu Yuan.
The two Nascent Soul Stage fox demons naturally couldn’t hide from him.
Looking at Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile swaggering up the mountain, Lu Yuan frowned slightly.
The two Nascent Soul Stage cultivators were unfamiliar faces.
If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t sense any killing intent from the two of them and the obvious demonic aura from their bodies…
Lu Yuan might even suspect that the matter of him stealing luck in the Full Moon Mountain Range had been exposed, and now as a consequence, he was chased by people from the Upper Realm.
The Full Moon Mountain Range was the territory of human cultivators. There was a high chance that they would not send demons to hunt him down.
However, no matter what the purpose of these two people was, they must have other motives for sneaking into his territory in the middle of the night.
If this was any other place, Lu Yuan would not have the confidence to deal with two Nascent Soul cultivators at the same time.
However, since they were in his own base camp, Black Jade Peak, Lu Yuan still had the confidence to capture the two of them.
Moreover, there was a Nascent Soul Stage patriarch in the Qingyun Sect.
Once there was a problem here, the other party would most likely come over.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan was prepared to ask them what they were here for after they were subdued.
Black Jade Peak.
“Brother, don’t you think this place is a little strange?”
Xu Ziyu looked at the surrounding trees. For some reason, she felt as if they were being watched.
It was as if their every move had been seen by someone.
Xu Zile’s expression was also very serious.
It was obvious that he also felt that something was wrong with the surrounding environment.
“Ziyu, looks like this place isn’t as simple as we thought.”
As he spoke, a long sword appeared in Xu Zile’s hand.
Judging from the spiritual energy fluctuations emitted from this sword, it was at least a high-grade magic item. The difference between it and a true magic item was only an artifact spirit.
On the other side, Xu Ziyu’s weapon was about the same grade. A bell-like high-grade magic item appeared in her hand.
Just as Xu Ziyu took out his magic item, a commotion came from the surroundings.
Not long after, a mystical Black Tortoise that only existed in ancient legends slowly appeared in front of the two of them.
When the Black Tortoise saw the two of them, its body began to collide continuously.
Finally, it turned into a 30-meter-tall behemoth.
Looking at the Black Tortoise in front of him, Xu Ziyu’s expression turned serious.
She could sense that the Black Tortoise in front of her was not the real Black Tortoise.
However, the other party’s strength was still not to be underestimated.
At the very least, he had the strength of the Ninth Level of the Core Formation Stage.
His cultivation was suppressed by 30% by the Heavens and he could not use the Heavenly Law Phenomenon.
It would not be easy for them to defeat this fellow.
If she was to use the Heavenly Transformation Technique now, she would be exposed.
This was not a good thing for the two of them.
They just wanted to see how Lu Yuan was doing.
They did not want to ruin their hard-earned trip to the Qingyun Sect because of this little gossip.
After all, the other sects might not be able to help them quickly offset the suppression of the Lower Realm like the Qingyun Sect.
“Brother, step back first.”
Xu Zile nodded and walked behind Xu Ziyu.
In the next second, Xu Ziyu shook the bell in her hand.
Ring ring ring ring…
The bells in Xu Ziyu’s hands shook along with the bells on her ankles and wrists.
These bells were a complete set of magic tools.
Lu Yuan, who was secretly observing this place, was immediately surprised when he saw this.
This little fox demoness’ ability was a little extraordinary.
As the invisible sound waves spread in the air, the Black Tortoise seemed to be drunk and began to sway. It looked like it would fall at any moment.
[Five Ghost Bell]
[Quality: Low-grade true magic item]
[Effect: Use the power of the five ghosts to affect a cultivator’s five internal organs.]
The so-called five internal organs were the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys.
Each of the Five Ghost Bells in Xu Ziyu’s hands was inhabited by a specific little ghost, and each of them corresponded to a cultivator’s organ.
After shaking the bell, it could affect the enemy’s internal organs.
A single Five Ghosts Bell was only a high-grade magic item, but when all five bells were combined, it was a true magic item.
A true magic item often had a spirit that came along with it.
Naturally, it could also hurt the opponent’s divine soul.
The five internal organs that the Five Ghosts Bell could control included the five internal organs of the cultivator’s soul.
It could be said that this was a true magic item that people could not guard against.
At this moment, the special Black Tortoise formed by the paper was hit by the attack.
That swaying appearance was because there was a problem with the divine soul in its body.
When Lu Yuan saw this, he knew that if he did not do something, his Paper Black Tortoise would soon be broken by that little fox demoness.
“You have a true magic item, and so do 1.”
Lu Yuan opened his storage bag, and a long scroll flew out.
This was one of the true magic items in Lu Yuan’s hands…A complete painting of the mountains and rivers.
After the Mountain River Scroll was spread out, it merged directly with the Black Jade Peak under Lu Yuan’s feet.
In the next second, Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile, who were far away at the foot of the mountain, suddenly felt the changes in their surroundings.
Rumble…
“Brother, be careful!”
As Xu Ziyu cried out in alarm, the originally calm Black Jade Peak began to shake violently.
After a while, Xu Ziyu and Xu Zile found themselves in a world of ice and snow.
The change of mountains and rivers and the change of seasons were actually completed in a breath’s time. This made the faces of the two siblings become incredibly grim.
It was obvious that the two of them had been discovered by the owner of the mountain.
Thinking of this, Xu Ziyu bit her lower lip fiercely.
Damn it, which ignorant person in the clan said that Lu Yuan was just a good-for-nothing abandoned by the Upper Realm?
If he was a good-for-nothing, then what were they???
