Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 596 - 331: Heading to the Demon Star_2

Therefore, the three major factors determining the Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivator's power are: initial spiritual power (determines basic output), life-bound divine weapons (determines amplification degree), and the total amount of spiritual power and spiritual power (determines duration).

The total spiritual power determining the combat duration is not difficult to understand, after all, using divine weapons, performing martial arts, and spells all require the consumption of spiritual power.

However, the total spiritual power is not the only variable determining the duration. There is another very important variable, which is spiritual power.

Divine weapons are connected to the bloodline of the Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivator, and using divine weapons greatly consumes spiritual power. If the spiritual power is not strong enough, the divine weapon cannot be used for a long time.

Normally, a newly entered Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivator can battle with a divine weapon for twenty minutes to half an hour before their spiritual power is exhausted.

There also exists the possibility that the divine weapon of a Core Formation Realm Martial Cultivator is so powerful that a single outburst exhausts all spiritual power.

Lu Yu revisited the information about breaking through from the Qi Sea Realm to the Core Formation Realm in his mind.

He had been flying for a long time, and the flying distance probably already exceeded tens of thousands of miles, almost leaving the range of the Tianfeng Province.

Suddenly, the direction indicated by the pass in his hand changed, pointing diagonally downward, and Lu Yu realized he was about to reach his destination.

Flying over a dense forest, Lu Yu saw a desert.

This desert was not naturally formed. Lu Yu could still see the traces of war left on the desert. After the sandstorm, Lu Yu could still see decayed weapons and armor on the ground.

While flying, Lu Yu's body suddenly stopped, looking warily at a huge stone.

A person cloaked in black robes walked out, looked up at Lu Yu, and said, "You are the Divine Weapon Pavilion disciple participating in the Celestial Star Selection with me? Not bad at all."

Not just not bad, when Lu Yu discovered him, he felt a bit incredulous.

The cloak he wore was made of the special spiritual treasure made from the skin of the Dark Void Rat, which could significantly hide one's aura, even a Distraction Realm cultivator would be fooled if not paying attention.

Combined with his trained concealment technique, it could make others believe he was merely a rock or a tree.

With the Dark Void Rat skin cloak, he could easily blend into everything, reducing his presence to the minimum.

Under these circumstances, Lu Yu still detected his presence, which greatly surprised him.

Perhaps due to the aftereffects of the battle with the Heart-Devouring Demon, Lu Yu subconsciously used perception, spiritual power, and soul power, scanning the surroundings threefold.

The first two powers detected nothing unusual, but when the soul power swept over the huge stone, Lu Yu unexpectedly discovered the stone had a soul.

He thought he encountered a spirit creature, unexpectedly it was a disciple of the Divine Weapon Pavilion hiding behind the stone.

Of course, Lu Yu was not the type to believe what others said without proof.

He revealed his Divine Weapon Pavilion disciple identity token, displayed it before the cloaked figure, and put it away.

The cloaked figure understood Lu Yu's intention, that Lu Yu wanted him to prove his identity.

He took out a red-gold identity token.

Seeing the identity token he took out, Lu Yu's expression changed slightly. It was different from his own, but the style indeed belonged to the Divine Weapon Pavilion disciple identity token.

The cloaked figure said, "I am the Commander of the Celestial Flame Furnace, should you not hurry to salute me?"

Lu Yu frowned slightly, having never heard of this title, Celestial Flame Furnace Commander. But he knew the Celestial Flame Furnace, it was the enormous volcano within the Divine Weapon Pavilion Secret Realm, never extinguished, illuminating the night sky.

He did not feel inferior upon hearing someone claiming a title he never heard of, nor was he eager to please.

Since the other is someone he never heard of as a Commander, Lu Yu simply clasped his hands as a normal martial salute among martial cultivators, without any grand gesture.

Just as Lu Yu made the clasped hands gesture, two streams of light flew over from afar.

"Hahaha, Owen Zhi, stop pretending to be important... the divine commander of the Celestial Flame Furnace, where did this position come from? Daring to proclaim such a title, if you were the Commander of Giant God Peak, what would saluting you cost me?"

A voice came from the stream of light, a figure with fiery red hair appeared in Lu Yu's sight, landing arrogantly atop the giant stone.

Another stream of light descended, it was a female Divine Weapon Pavilion disciple, adorned with ornaments—spiritual treasures.

"Treasure Princess, you're here too, let's join forces for this Celestial Star Selection." Owen Zhi hurriedly approached her and said.

Treasure Princess frowned unhappily seeing him come over, "Don't call me by that nickname, I have a name, call me Ling Long, or Tian Wu."

Ling Long Tian Wu did not like being called Treasure Princess, as this nickname carried the connotation of a useless vase.

In fact, she was not only not a useless vase but also a powerful Peak Qi Sea Realm martial cultivator.

She wore numerous spiritual treasures because her cultivation technique was special, the more spiritual treasures she had, the stronger her combat power.

Standing on the giant stone with an arrogant expression, the red-haired youth named Long Jie was also a core disciple sent by the Divine Weapon Pavilion for the Celestial Star Selection.

Aside from Lu Yu, the other three's elders were all high-level figures in the Divine Weapon Pavilion, though Lu Yu had someone high-ranking backing him as well, with substantial strength.

In terms of background, Lu Yu might actually be the strongest among the four.

Long Jie glanced at the other three and asked, "Are there only four of us?"
