Chapter 739 - 403: 7th Life: Cultivation Technique, Fallen Star Combat Power!
Chapter 739: Chapter 403: 7th Life: Cultivation Technique, Fallen Star Combat Power!
Half an hour later.
Originally, Wang Hao’s delicate face was now swollen like a pig’s head.
His eyes rolled back, his body covered in bruises, lying on the ground like a heap of mud, seeming to have suffered some sort of inhuman torture and abuse.
Lu Yuan, however, clapped his hands in satisfaction, having evidently gotten what he wanted from the other party.
"Purple Cloud Skill?"
Recalling the information Wang Hao had just confessed, a sharp glint flashed in Lu Yuan’s eyes.
This method can absorb the Qi of the Residual Sunset and is the fundamental cultivation method of the Purple Cloud Sect, known for its thick and enduring spiritual power.
If cultivated deeply enough.
It can even point directly to the Golden Core Dao, causing auspicious phenomena such as purple qi coming from the east and colorful clouds appearing!
However, the Star Alliance strictly prohibits the transmission of cultivation techniques.
In the depths of every sect disciple’s mind, there is a soul restriction.
Once an outsider attempts to obtain the cultivation technique through the Soul-Searching Technique, the restriction will be triggered, causing the sect disciple to self-destruct and die.
Lu Yuan, relying on his many lifetimes of cultivation experience, managed to obtain a portion of the Purple Cloud Skill from Wang Hao.
But with his insight, just a general understanding is enough.
He can deduce a more powerful and perfect cultivation technique based on this incomplete technique.
Then.
He focused his gaze and immediately brought up his virtual panel.
[Talent: Reverse Cause and Effect]
[Number of Future Results that Can Be Prepaid: 0/3]
[Prepaid Results: Tier One Mecha Mastery (23% completed), Innate Qi Mixed Element Skill (25%), Complete Military Killing Fist (10%)]
[Available Prepaid Results: Gun Master (can skillfully use all firearms), Tier Two Mecha Mastery (master all Tier Two mecha knowledge), Sixteen Techniques of the Star Realm Military Combat, Purple Sky Divine Decision · Introduction...]
[Abilities Mastered: Basic Mecha Mastery, Basic Military Killing Fist, Innate Mixed Element Stance Skill]
"As expected, I can deduce a new cultivation technique with just some incomplete information?"
"Although I have too little information, resulting in this technique having only the introduction, it’s enough for me to become a Golden Core Cultivator."
Lu Yuan glanced at the Purple Sky Divine Decision and couldn’t help but smile.
This is the defying aspect of [Reverse Cause and Effect].
As long as it’s theoretically feasible, he can prepay the future cultivation result and then make up for the cultivation process gradually.
Based on the panel’s information.
Compared to the Purple Cloud Skill, the Purple Sky Divine Decision is significantly more powerful.
Even just the introduction can allow Lu Yuan to be reborn, directly condensing a celestial-grade Golden Core.
If he gains a deeper understanding of the Heaven and Earth Laws of this world in the future, he can further perfect the Purple Sky Divine Decision.
In the future, achieving Nascent Soul or even Divinity Transformation wouldn’t be out of reach!
"Core Formation Sect Leader, Nascent Soul Ancestor, it seems the Purple Cloud Sect’s power is quite decent, having a Tier Four Nascent Soul Cultivator in command."
Lu Yuan muttered to himself.
According to Wang Hao.
The Purple Cloud Sect on Divine Wood Star is a significant cultivation sect, not only having tens of thousands of disciples and dozens of Core Formation combat power but also several Nascent Soul Ancestors.
As for the Governor of Divine Wood Star, it’s indeed a genuine Tier Five Divinity Transformation Great Power.
Its power is so terrifying that it can easily destroy a planet!
"Tier Four destroys nations, Tier Five submerges lands, Tier Six falls stars."
"But a Divinity Transformation Great Power at only Tier Five can possess Fallen Star Combat Power."
"Thus, it seems, the combat power of cultivators is a level higher than that of their peers in terms of destructive power?"
After organizing all the information, Lu Yuan finally had an intuitive understanding of the cultivators in this world.
"Wang Hao is just an outer disciple, and even if he disappears, the Purple Cloud Sect might not even make a fuss over it."
"The next step for me is to quickly fill in the experience, and then use Reverse Cause and Effect to enter the Tier Three Golden Core Realm."
As long as he can become a Core Formation Strong Person, he can strut around Xihu City, even the Lianyunxiao Group would not be a threat!
At the same time.
The auxiliary light computer in the mecha cockpit flickered slightly, indicating several intercepted missed communications.
Lu Yuan opened them to see they were all from Gu Yao.
He thought for a moment, canceled the Do Not Disturb mode, and called back immediately.
The next second.
Gu Yao, dressed in a blue Public Security Bureau uniform, appeared in front of him via holographic projection.
"I was busy just now, what’s the situation outside?"
Lu Yuan asked.
"The situation is dire, you know very well what the disappearance of a cultivator means to the Star Alliance."
"Now that the Governance Hall is aware of this, it has sternly instructed the Public Security Bureau to find Wang Hao’s whereabouts in the shortest time possible."
"The entire Xihu City is now completely sealed, no one is allowed to leave. I’m afraid you won’t be able to hide for long before you’re discovered."
Gu Yao sighed.
"Are they worried about the technique being leaked?"
Upon hearing this news, Lu Yuan immediately guessed the concerns and intentions of the Hulao Star authorities.
In fact.
This world, being the Eight-Star Cultivation World, has people with cultivation aptitude almost everywhere.
Out of about ten people, one has a spirit root.
Although the Celestial Divine Race has cut off the heavens with supreme means, monopolizing most resources and spiritual energy, those with spirit roots as cultivation seedlings are still an extremely large number.
Moreover, as the Star Alliance relies on the strength of cultivators to fight against dark creatures, it’s impossible to execute all these people.
Usually, these people have no cultivation techniques and resources, and even with a spirit root, they cannot embark on the cultivation path.
But if they were to obtain a cultivation technique.
They would become a dragon entering the sea, a tiger returning to the mountains, and the consequences would be unimaginable!
Wang Hao is just an outer disciple of the Purple Cloud Sect, and even if he dies, few would care.
But the cultivation technique on him is crucial, and absolutely cannot fall into the hands of outsiders!
"Wang Hao is now a hot potato, keeping him with you will sooner or later bring about a deadly disaster."
Gu Yao said seriously.
"What do you mean?"
Lu Yuan’s heart stirred, hearing the implication behind her words.
"Wang Hao is a cultivator, very important to us."
"If you hand him over to us, we will find a way to help you through this crisis and can promise you other conditions."
Gu Yao said candidly.
Having dealt with Lu Yuan so many times, she understood that he never acted without profit.
"What can you offer?"
Lu Yuan was indeed a bit tempted.
After all, now that he had obtained the cultivation technique, Wang Hao was useless to him and might even bring big trouble.
If Gu Yao could offer enough, Lu Yuan didn’t mind handing Wang Hao over to them.
"Fifty million star coins, a Tier Two Shadow Stabbing Mecha, a space bracelet, and two Tier Three combat skills."
"This is already all the resources we can currently offer, hope you can consider carefully before deciding."
Gu Yao said with a resigned look, clearly already frightened by Lu Yuan’s sky-high demands from the previous two times.
"I have no use for the Shadow Stabbing Mecha and don’t need combat skills. Can you exchange those for an ordinary-level intelligent light computer and add fifty million star coins?"
Lu Yuan didn’t want to waste too much time, so he directly stated his terms.
"Pfft!"
Even though Gu Yao guessed Lu Yuan would demand exorbitantly as usual.
But upon hearing this outrageous condition, she almost spat out a mouthful of blood in anger.
A hundred million star coins, a space bracelet, plus a cracked ordinary-level intelligent light computer.
These things together were worth at least seven hundred million star coins.
Lu Yuan really dared to ask for this.
Seeing the other party gnashing teeth, Lu Yuan felt a bit embarrassed.
He originally planned to ask Gu Yao for a spiritual power mecha but paused after considering.
Because the cost of each spiritual power mecha was extremely high, even Wang Hao’s mecha was bought with a loan.
If he proposed this condition, Gu Yao would never agree.
Finally.
After some intense negotiation, both sides made compromises.
Ultimately, Gu Yao agreed to give Lu Yuan one hundred million star coins, a space bracelet, and a computing chip for an ordinary-level light computer to finalize the deal.
It wasn’t long before.
In the ruins on the outskirts.
A figure fully cloaked in black appeared from the darkness, standing before Lu Yuan.
"Hello, everything you requested is here."
The person handed a palm-sized box to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan opened it and found an intelligent chip inside.
Although this chip looked only the size of a fingernail, its computing power was comparable to billions of super quantum computers!
Of course.
This was just part of the computing power template; the true light computer terminal and energy device were still at Gu Yao’s base.
But it’s already sufficient for everyday use.
"He’s fine, just passed out."
Lu Yuan handed Wang Hao and the Shadow Stabbing Mecha to him, noticing the other party’s puzzled look, he casually explained.
"If I may ask, you are very strong. Would you be interested in joining our Silver Moon Organization?"
"We will do our utmost to provide the best cultivation resources for you."
The man in the black cloak suddenly asked.
"Sorry, I’m used to being a lone wolf, not interested in joining any faction."
Lu Yuan refused without hesitation.
Though the enemy’s enemy is a friend.
These rebel organizations aimed to overthrow the Star Alliance, from a particular perspective, they were also allies to Lu Yuan.
But human nature is unpredictable; he preferred to act alone.
His stance towards the rebels was cooperation is okay, but joining is off the table.
"I overstepped, a pleasant transaction. I hope we can cooperate again in the future."
The cloaked figure nodded, turned around, and disappeared into the darkness.
"Is that some kind of shadow ability?"
Lu Yuan pondered as he stared at the spot where the person vanished.
Then.
He picked up the chip, inserted it into the watch’s card slot, accompanied by a ’beep’ sound, indicating successful activation.
"With this part of the light computer’s computing power, I can batch decrypt the core codes of Zero Form Mecha without tedious manual operations."
"Moreover, with Wang Hao’s trouble now resolved, falling into the rebels’ hands, he will be drained of all value, posing no further threat to me."
"The urgent task is to first fill in the experience, then prepare to enter the Core Formation Realm."
Lu Yuan contemplated.
Having obtained the cultivation technique, he could finally open the door to cultivation.
Given his cultivation speed,
perhaps in a few years, he might become a Nascent Soul or even a Divinity Transformation Great Power.
By then, not to mention the small Purple Cloud Sect, even the entire Divine Wood Star might not be his match!
After the transaction ended, not long after.
Xihu City suddenly lifted its martial law status, and all searches were called off.
The pervasive electronic trackers vanished without a trace, and everything returned to calm.
"Did Gu Yao and the others make a move?"
Lu Yuan speculated.
Although he didn’t know how the Silver Moon Organization accomplished it,
evidently, the other party had mighty power, even capable of influencing the Governance Hall’s decisions to a certain extent!
Regarding this.
Lu Yuan felt relieved and planned to retreat for a while.
He would not emerge until he reached the Core Formation!
