Cultivating Through The Game

The greatest feature is that they have largely retained their autonomy.

This means that they possess a selfish mentality.

However, due to the influence of the demonic aura, the ultimate apocalypse recognized in their hearts is still a common goal for all.

To achieve this goal, even sacrificing their lives is not too much to ask.

The "Supreme Existence" among the demons, for some unknown reason, has not descended.

On the other side, Lu Yu finally defeated the Supreme Demon Monster Saint Ancestor Tianyan, broke through his defense, obliterated his body, dismantled his essence, and extracted the world's essence.

To Lu Yu's surprise, Tianyan actually possessed one percent of the world's permissions.

That Tianyan possessed world permissions was quite unexpected for him.

In fact, the full permissions of the Great Cosmic World are divided into four parts—past, present, future, and the elusive "One."

The past, present, and future each hold thirty-three percent, and the elusive one holds one percent.

The purpose is to prevent anyone from acquiring the entire permissions of the Great Cosmic World and thereby control the fate and future of all living beings within it.

Tianyan held the elusive one of the Great Cosmic World; originally, his identity was that of a Guardian of the Great Cosmic World.

But later, due to the temptation of other innate deities and demons, Tianyan, driven by a desire for more powerful strength and disgust for his responsibilities, chose to betray the will of the Great Cosmic World.

Lu Yu, having obtained Tianyan's world permissions, was deeply moved upon realizing the symbolic meaning behind this world permission.

He is now an enemy of the Great Cosmic World, yet he has acquired the identity of its Guardian—what an irony.

However, this also means that he can act freely within the Great Cosmic World.

This Guardian identity still holds some value, at the very least reducing the suppression of the Great Cosmic Will on him.

After restoring the microcosmos starlight to its original state, Lu Yu's consciousness descended into his incarnate form in the Great Cosmic World.

Upon descending, Lu Yu immediately felt that, after Tianyan's disappearance, the suppression from the Great Cosmic Will returned to him.

He silently activated the one percent world permission belonging to Tianyan. Instantly, the suppressive force on him practically vanished.

As long as he doesn't commit acts that would destroy the Great Cosmic World, he will no longer be suppressed by it.

Currently, the world permissions controlled by Lu Yu have reached four percent.

Aside from the sixty-six percent of the past and future, the remaining world permissions in the Great Cosmic World account for thirty percent.

How to acquire the world permissions of the past and future, even Lu Yu doesn't know.

Before that, he must first collect the remaining thirty percent of the present world's permissions.

"It's truly not easy," Lu Yu remarked, gazing at the vast and endless starry sky.

Reaching this point was truly not easy.

The remaining world permissions are all concentrated in the chaotic space-time battlefield; Lu Yu returned to the chaotic space-time battlefield.

By now, he clearly understands the origin of this battlefield: this is the rule-collapse space left behind after the battle of the deities' fall back then, following the fall of numerous innate deities and demons.

Even the Great Cosmic Will can't restore the rule order of this world.

Saint Ancestor-level experts can freely use their world permissions in this chaotic world, altering world rules at will without worrying about being counterattacked by the Great Cosmic World.

Initially, Lu Yu thought that world permissions lost their utility in the chaotic space-time battlefield.

In fact, they only lost part of their utility, the ability to mobilize the cosmic world's rule power.

Since this world has already lost its rule order, even with world permissions, they cannot mobilize the power of rules.

However, the permission to change rules remains, although it requires consuming the power of the Saint Ancestor level itself.

Unlike in the outside world, where Saint Ancestor levels can summon the power of heaven and earth freely without expending any of their own power.

This also results in it being difficult to distinguish winners and losers among Saint Ancestor levels in the world outside the chaotic space-time battlefield.

Furthermore, arbitrarily altering world rules causes excessive damage to the world and incurs counterattacks from the power of the Great Cosmic World.

Taking a step forward, Lu Yu traversed through time and space and appeared directly within the chaotic space-time battlefield.

The battle here continued unabated, no victor had been decided.

The giant Divine Soldier in the hands of the Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion had dimmed, with many cracks appearing on its surface.

His opponent, the Six-armed Asura Saint Ancestor, had considerably weakened, with none of that all-conquering might that could challenge heaven and earth.

A subtle aura of death suffused the Six-armed Asura Saint Ancestor. After all, he belonged to the previous era and had been forcibly resurrected by demons to stand again, lacking the true imposing force of the Asura Saint Ancestor.

In that era, the Asura Saint Ancestor truly had an invincible presence.

If not for the trends of the time, human dominance, the prosperity of humanity, and the emergence of a peerless genius suppressing the era,

otherwise, the Asura Saint Ancestor might have lived into this era.

His rise and fall were both due to Asura.

If not for the Asura Saint Ancestor's path of fighting heaven and earth, battling endlessly, he wouldn't have become a powerful and renowned Saint Ancestor level.

But it was precisely this unyielding path of battle that led to his downfall.

Ultimately, only one truly invincible presence exists in an era.

The Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion glanced at the giant Divine Soldier in his hand, his eyes sharpening, as power surges, and the cracks on the giant Divine Soldier rapidly healed, and the damaged runes within quickly repaired.

This is the power of the Saint Ancestor level, the power to change rules.

Just as he wanted to press his advantage and take down the Asura Saint Ancestor, Lu Yu suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

The sudden appearance of a human left the Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion momentarily stunned; before Lu Yu appeared, he hadn't sensed any aura.

Seeing that Lu Yu was a human Saint Ancestor level, the Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion hesitated for a moment and did not make a move against him.

Taking advantage of this moment of hesitance, Lu Yu raised his hand and dragged the weakened Asura Saint Ancestor into the microcosmos starlight.

If not for the Asura Saint Ancestor's drastically reduced combat power, Lu Yu probably wouldn't have been so smooth in sending him into the microcosmos.

Watching the Asura Saint Ancestor vanish, the Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion was startled, realizing something.

He gazed at Lu Yu with a wary look in his eyes, as the giant Divine Soldier in his hand brimmed with power, and he sent a message to the Great Zhou Founding Saint Ancestor, informing him that the culprit had appeared.

Upon receiving the message, the Great Zhou Founding Saint Ancestor rushed over immediately, disregarding even his opponent.

The Saint Ancestor-level demon, seeing his urgency, instinctively blocked him, thinking he was going to reinforce other human Martial Cultivators.

Facing the Saint Ancestor-level demon blocking his way, the Great Zhou Founding Saint Ancestor's eyes sharpened, and his true power erupted.

Boom! The heavens split open, a crack traversed the sky, and the Saint Ancestor-level demon was slashed in half, its eyes dazed as it floated in the void.

It did not expect that the human Martial Cultivator it fought equally with was actually this powerful.

Powerful beyond reason.

Simultaneously, the demon couldn't help but question deeply why this human was concealing his strength.

Sizzle sizzle~ The bisected body rapidly healed, with questions in its heart, the demon pursued in the direction the Great Zhou Founding Saint Ancestor had departed.

Lu Yu glanced at the Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion blocking his path, his eyes shifting slightly, as he sensed a powerful aura rapidly approaching.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh~ Suddenly, Lu Yu's aura surged, rapidly surpassing that of the Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion.

The Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion stared at Lu Yu in shock, wondering what was happening.

Could it be that Lu Yu had been concealing his strength?

Lu Yu hadn't been hiding his strength; his power surge was due to absorbing the world permissions of the Six-armed Asura Saint Ancestor.

Demons, in their bid to recreate the might of the Asura Saint Ancestor of the past, had indeed gone to great lengths, injecting a large amount of permissions from other Demon Monster Saint Ancestors into the essence of the Asura Saint Ancestor.

Forcibly accumulating the world permissions possessed by the Asura Saint Ancestor to five percent.

Possessing five percent of the world permissions, coupled with the divine body of the Asura Saint Ancestor, the strength that erupted was already at the pinnacle of the Saint Ancestor level.

Even for a fellow top-tier Saint Ancestor like the Pavilion Master of Divine Weapon Pavilion, he would need to wield the giant Divine Soldier to have the power to challenge him.

With four percent plus five percent, Lu Yu currently holds a staggering nine percent of world permissions.

Yet, Lu Yu felt a presence even more powerful than himself rapidly approaching.
