Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 726 - 381: Beiming Has a Kun

Lu Yu was diligently working as a porter in the void fire sea when Su Peng was startled by the huge commotion outside. He stepped out of the room and looked up to see a black rift across the sky.

Su Peng stared at the rift, dazed for a moment, and when he recovered, he looked down and saw Zhang Jingyang also emerging.

"Looks like this place is about to give in," Zhang Jingyang said.

Su Peng nodded. He couldn't help but feel relieved; had he not come this time, he might never have seen his former mother world.

Even though he hadn't lived in this world, watching the immense world march toward destruction made him feel upset.

There was also a deep sense of powerlessness, as if facing the wheels of history rolling over him, where the individual had no ability to resist.

The two looked toward Lu Yu's room, and seeing the closed door with stable energy inside, they understood that Lu Yu had entered deep cultivation and was unaware of the changes outside.

Exchanging a few words outside, they each returned to their rooms.

Su Peng sat in his room and took out a crystal-clear elixir; inside the elixir was a drop of essence blood imbued with terrifying power.

If it weren't for the alchemists using special techniques to seal all the power of this drop of essence blood within the elixir, everyone in Celestial City might be oppressed by this drop of essence blood, making it difficult to move.

This was the Holy Ancestor Essence Blood, the essence blood of the Su family's Holy Ancestor.

Su Peng knew that consuming this drop of holy blood carried a high risk of death, but he had no choice.

If he didn't seize the opportunity to absorb the holy blood's power here, he wouldn't have enough time to digest the power outside.

In another room, Zhang Jingyang faced the same choice, but he held a piece of holy armor instead of holy blood.

A divine soldier or rather a saint weapon of a Holy Ancestor level figure.

Even after thousands of years, the power of the holy armor had not diminished, and Zhang Jingyang's chance of refining the holy armor was slim, yet he chose to take this step.

Su Peng consumed the elixir containing the holy blood, while Zhang Jingyang communicated with the holy armor, confronting the artifact spirit of the armor.

Lu Yu had been cultivating in the void fire sea for an unknown duration when the solar star finally reached its limit and began to swell intensely, indicating an imminent breakthrough.

Phew~ Suddenly, Lu Yu was attacked; his consciousness trembled violently, returning to his body. The solar star, about to break through, quickly shrank after losing its power source.

Lu Yu opened his eyes, somewhat bewildered, and it took a while for his vision to refocus.

"What the hell was that thing just now?" Lu Yu thought with a slightly unpleasant expression, recalling what had just happened.

Luckily, only a trace of his consciousness existed in the void fire sea, so even if destroyed, it wouldn't significantly affect him.

Otherwise, that sudden strike could have severely injured Lu Yu.

"When did living creatures appear in the void fire sea?" Lu Yu wondered.

A figure suddenly appeared in his mind; he remembered there was already a living thing in the void fire sea — the small evil god.

Recalling the scene glimpsed at the last moment, it was a thick tentacle.

If he guessed correctly, the entity that shattered his consciousness was the small evil god born from the evil god corpse.

Lu Yu composed himself and resumed cultivation, projecting his consciousness through the solar star into the void fire sea.

He appeared at the center of his refined fire sea, his consciousness instantly spreading across every inch he controlled, and he saw not far from the edge of his fire sea was an endless continent.

Or rather, a corpse so vast that its boundaries were hard to discern.

Unknowingly, his territory had expanded to the surroundings of the evil god's body, no wonder he was attacked by the small evil god residing on the Evil God Continent.

Lu Yu stationed himself at the fire sea's center, using his consciousness to push the fire sea's edge towards the Evil God Continent's direction, intending to include all regions near the continent in his control.

Whenever the small evil god appeared, he would be able to detect its presence.

He dared not easily appear at the fire sea's edge now; though doing so could speed up the refining process, it also risked attacks from the small evil god.

Even if that trace of consciousness were shattered, it wouldn't significantly affect his physical body.

But losing consciousness would require considerable time to recuperate, severely affecting his cultivation efficiency, so it's better to avoid consciousness loss.

Moreover, he wasn't sure if multiple damages would eventually affect the physical body.

Phew~ A figure was moving rapidly above the fire sea, and Lu Yu sensed a fast-moving figure entering his territory.

The small evil god charged directly towards Lu Yu's consciousness; the fire sea appeared to be slashed apart by a sharp blade.

"Damn!" Lu Yu cursed. As his consciousness swirled and the fire sea's power was about to erupt to intercept the small evil god, Lu Yu's head was pierced by a tentacle.

Bang~ Lu Yu's consciousness shattered, and his awareness returned to the room, yelling out the second half of "damn" instinctively, echoing in the room.

With one hand pressed on his forehead, he felt a headache, though it wasn't truly painful, but rather troublesome.

The small evil god's power had evidently grown much stronger; he was annihilated before he could react. The small evil god hadn't been so strong before.

On the other hand, it was merely a trace of his consciousness, not his full power, so getting wiped out was predictable.
