“As long as the martial artists of the Hundred Sects are willing to abandon their original foundations and start cultivation anew, they can become a member of Morigin.”
Among independent martial cultivators, there are many like me who have abandoned their original foundations and started cultivation anew.”
They are scattered throughout the twelve Morigin states, and when you see an independent martial cultivators suddenly rise, most of them are former Heavenly Prides of the Hundred Sects. They had no choice but to abandon their Supreme Foundations and start cultivation anew.”
Abandoning one’s original foundation means severing all ties with the sect, including the blessings of the sect’s luck.
However, Lu Yun heard for the first time that Morigin would accept people from the Hundred Sects under these circumstances.
From Zuo Qiuye’s words, the truth could be discerned.
“Why would you give up the foundations you’ve worked so hard to establish?” Lu Yun asked, pointing out a loophole in Zuo Qiuye’s speech.
“There are many reasons – some do it for revenge, some for survival, and some for pursuing higher realms, and so on.”
Lu Yun still wanted to ask more when suddenly a commotion occurred outside the cave dwelling.
“Damn it, someone indeed entered my cave dwelling.”
Upon hearing the voice, both Lu Yun and Zuo Qiuye narrowed their eyes.
“Brother Lu, I apologize; a strong Rune Seed Realm expert from the Cloud Sea Sect must have employed some tricks on the array or prohibition. They noticed our presence as soon as we entered the cave dwelling.”
Without his reminder, Lu Yun had already thought of this possibility.
But what use was it? Now a powerful Rune Seed Realm expert was blocking the entrance to the cave dwelling, which was terrifying just to think about.
“What should we do?” Lu Yun’s thoughts raced, searching for a strategy.
In the cave dwelling, he could not use his Instant Horizon, so escape was impossible.
If he didn’t try to escape, his current strength could barely contend with a Halfstep Rune Seed Realm, but if he encountered a real Rune Seed Realm expert, he would have no chance for survival.
But other than that, there seemed to be no better option.
Feeling the oppressive aura drawing closer, Lu Yun glanced at Zuo Qiuye beside him and couldn’t help but ask, “Brother Zuo, have you come up with any countermeasures?”
Zuo Qiuye nodded slightly, “The best method is to confront them head-on in order to fight for a slim chance at survival.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yun was exasperated, wasn’t this just stating the obvious?
So, he took a deep breath and looked around the room.
Aside from the Level 5 XingXuan bracelet he had previously obtained, the room was empty, except for a small gourd hanging on the wall.
Lu Yun reached out, grabbed the small gourd, and heard a rolling sound from within.
As he opened the gourd, the sparkle in his eyes intensified.
“Pills!”
As Lu Yun uncorked the gourd, a refreshing pill fragrance instantly filled the air.
“These are Rune Seed Pills.”
Zuo Qiuye by his side reminded him, “This pill has no advantages for you, only harm. You must not take it, or you’ll be stuck at the Half-step Rune Seed Realm for the rest of your life.”
“Are these really Rune Seed Pills?”
Although Lu Yun had never seen Rune Seed Pills before, he had heard of them: they were a unique pill with very high value, forcibly refined using the inheritance of the Hundred Sects through special means.
As it was extremely difficult for even Golden Body Realm martial artists to advance to the Rune Seed Realm or even Half-step Rune Seed Realm.
Countless martial artists were stuck at the peak of the Golden Body Realm in Morigin.
But Rune Seed Pills help Golden Body Realm martial artists quickly comprehend Laws, engrave Law Runes on their bodies, and eventually condense Rune Seeds.
It could be said that a single Rune Seed Pill could create a Half-step Rune Seed Realm expert.
For those martial artists who had reached the peak of the Golden Body Realm and could never advance further, a Rune Seed Pill was no less valuable than any Sixth Grade pill.
Unfortunately, this was within Morigin, in the alliance.
The Rune Seed Pill, however, was a forbidden pill, its pill recipe destroyed, and any alchemist who dares to refine it would face sealing punishment from both the Dan Master Alliance and the Morigin Imperial Court.
It’s not just because the Rune Seed Pill would cut off the future potential of its user.
Those who take the Rune Seed Pill are individuals who have no hope of consolidating a Rune Seed due to the difficulty in engraving runes.
How can one talk about future potential if one cannot even condense a Rune Seed?
The reason why the Rune Seed Pill is considered forbidden within the Morigin Realm and the Dan Master Alliance is that it weakens the fate of the human race to produce this pill.
The Rune Seed, the Law Rune, this is linked to the laws of heaven and earth, as it consumes the laws of heaven and earth at a price.
There were two Rune Seed Pills in the gourd, each full and rounded, exuding a sense of elation that made people yearn, almost blending with heaven and earth.
After sealing the gourd, Lu Yun put it away into the Sumi Ring with a smile on his face.
With such harvest, what can be done even if a great enemy comes?
As for this, Zuo Qiuye had nothing more to say. Everyone has their own calculations and choices, and in the end, they will pay for their choices.
He had already reminded Lu Yun, and that was enough.
Moreover, with the great enemy approaching, there was no time to waste on idle talk.
Boom!
Just as Lu Yun put away the Rune Seed Pill, the stone door was suddenly blasted open, and a furious breath flooded into the stone chamber.
The atmosphere was like a sharp sword cutting through the air, and Lu Yun felt an immense pressure. He mobilized all his Pure Yang Strong Origin to counter it.
At the same time, he also saw the powerful Cloud Sea Sect expert who had arrived, his body covered in golden runes, his eyes opening and closing like lightning, and his powerful aura rolled like waves towards Lu Yun and Zuo Qiuye.
“You two rodents have the audacity to break into my cave! Die!” A Rune Seed Realm Martial Artist stretched out his hand, and two rune-constructed snakes lunged at Lu Yun and Zuo Qiuye simultaneously.
“Hmph, just a middling Rune Seed Realm after all. If I were in my peak state, I could crush the likes of you with one hand.” Zuo Qiuye was quite brave, defeating one of the rune snakes with a single sword.
Lu Yun used all of his Aura Origin and activated 70% of his Slaughter Conception at Level 5, just barely breaking the attack of the other snake.
Even so, his figure retreated sharply, finally colliding with the wall, where he barely managed to steady himself.
The mid-level Rune Seed Realm expert’s casual strike was terrifying, and Lu Yun’s face was grave, as he had seriously underestimated the strength of a Rune Seed Realm expert.
However, Zuo Qiuye appeared quite relaxed. “It seems you’re already injured and aren’t even at 50% of your full strength.”
Zuo Qiuye’s words were meant to boost Lu Yun’s confidence and shake the Rune Seed Realm expert’s state of mind.
“Hmph, even so, I’m more than enough to crush you two ants.” The Rune Seed Realm expert snorted, his body shimmering with brilliant light like a range of mountains blocking the stone gate, completely sealing off the stone chamber.
With such a terrifying enemy standing in their way, Lu Yun didn’t have much confidence. However, according to Zuo Qiuye, the enemy was severely injured, which was indeed the best news.
As a result, he activated his spiritual power, and the mountain-like pressure from the Level 5 Xing Xuan bracelet vanished, liberating his strength.
“Brother Lu, this time we must put aside our prejudices and work together to resist the enemy, or there will be no chance of survival.”
“Brother Zuo, I trust you.”
At this moment, all Lu Yun could think about was escaping from the encirclement of the Rune Seed Realm expert, or else everything would turn to ashes.
Moreover, he didn’t harbor much prejudice towards Zuo Qiuye, and his words greatly eased the suspicions in his heart.
“Very well, I’m about to use a trump card that will cause the entire cave to collapse.
However, you need to secure me five breaths’ worth of time and do not let him disturb me, otherwise, all our efforts will be in vain.”
“Ten breaths, no problem.” Lu Yun gritted his teeth and stepped forward.
The Goldfang Jaws quickly transformed into nine golden swords, enveloping a golden light and attacking the Rune Seed Realm expert blocking the entrance of the stone chamber.
“Hmph, with just this level of skill, you think you can stop me?”
The Rune Seed Realm expert snorted loudly, sweeping his hand away and releasing a sea of runes that blocked the attack of the Goldfang Jaws.
At the same time, he ferociously pressed on towards Lu Yun and Zuo Qiuye in the stone chamber.
