Cultivating Through The Game

Lu Yu's aura was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing Lu Yu devour the world permissions of numerous Saint Ancestor-level demons, Chu Yuxian and Wuya Zi were already numb.

The power Lu Yu had shown earlier had already shocked them greatly, and now seeing him devour world permissions didn't seem so unbelievable.

As if anything that happened to him seemed normal.

Chu Yuxian already understood why Lu Yu wanted to "collect" Saint Ancestor-level powerhouses and knew the fate of those Saint Ancestor-level figures.

He couldn't help but feel a rabbit's death sorrow, knowing that soon, he would meet the same fate.

Lu Yu glanced at Chu Yuxian, understood his thoughts, and without saying much, waved his hand, and the three of them appeared in front of the Cosmic Courtyard.

"Let's go inside and take a look, I am human too," Lu Yu said, and with that, he pushed open the gates of the Cosmic Courtyard.

With a gentle push, the courtyard gates automatically opened slowly, revealing the scene inside.

Meanwhile, the aura of everyone inside the Cosmic Courtyard also appeared within Chu Yuxian's perception.

Feeling the familiar aura of numerous human Saint Ancestor-level Martial Cultivators, Chu Yuxian realized a burst of joy erupted from his heart.

In a moment of realization, he understood that he hadn't truly embraced death; he was still afraid to die.

Fear of death is a common human emotion, even for a Saint Ancestor-level being.

Although they possess boundless life spans and immortality.

But at the moment they know they will die, they still feel fear.

No need to venture further inside; Chu Yuxian already knew those auras were not simulated by Lu Yu.

Because he had already heard voices of conversation from within.

Chu Yuxian halted his steps and turned to look at Lu Yu, with Wuya Zi seemingly understanding his intention, silently stepping back.

"It's up to you now; I'll help you persuade Brother Wudi afterward," Chu Yuxian said.

After pausing for a moment, he asked, "Can you tell me what your goal is?"

Lu Yu looked him in the eyes and seriously said, "To create a future free from the threat of demons."

Chu Yuxian looked into Lu Yu's eyes and saw the shimmering light of determination, then smiled and patted Lu Yu's shoulder.

"I hope your goal can be realized."

After speaking, a source filled with golden light and majestic aura appeared on Chu Yuxian's palm.

Proactively stripping away his source, Chu Yuxian's aura only weakened slightly, without any hint of decay.

This was enough to show Chu Yuxian's strength compared to Heaven-Shaking Saint Ancestor.

When Heaven-Shaking Saint Ancestor stripped away his source, he almost directly perished; if Lu Yu hadn't promptly returned the source, Heaven-Shaking Saint Ancestor might not have been able to maintain even his Ten Thousand Phenomena Realm cultivation.

After extracting the world permissions from the source, Lu Yu returned the source to Chu Yuxian.

Once the source returned to his body, Chu Yuxian felt a bit confused, sensing something missing in his body, though he couldn't articulate what it was.

Perhaps this was the elusive feeling brought by the world permissions.

They are not a tangible entity but certainly exist.

Apart from Lu Yu, no one can touch the world permissions.

When Lu Yu absorbed the world permissions, Chu Yuxian only saw a light and sensed the world permissions.

After absorbing the world permissions from Chu Yuxian and those Saint Ancestor-level demons, the world permissions Lu Yu held already reached nearly twenty-three percent.

Now he felt unprecedentedly strong; even the great cosmic will couldn't suppress his power anymore.

His avatar appeared on the battlefield between Ji Wudi and Hong, his powerful aura causing both sides to unconsciously slow their combat pace, diverting their attention to Lu Yu.

Both were very wary of Lu Yu, especially after Chu Yuxian disappeared, causing Ji Wudi to regard Lu Yu as an enemy.

Lu Yu no longer cared about Ji Wudi's attitude; his power could completely crush Ji Wudi.

He looked toward the demonized innate god Hong, a smile appeared on his face, and he raised his hand to strike from afar.

Just like Hong had dealt with him before, attacking from a distance.

As Lu Yu's palm struck down, the power of the entire great cosmic world began to flow, an unspeakably terrifying power formed a massive palm above Hong's head.

With Lu Yu's hand descending, the palm swooped towards Hong's location.

Hong's face changed, stretching his hands in an attempt to tear the sky.

The palm, condensed with unimaginably terrifying power, was partially torn, as Hong, with a frightened expression, was cruelly crushed down, flattening him.

The last look of terror on Hong's face brought Lu Yu a sense of satisfaction.

It estimated that Hong would start doubting his own abilities, questioning this world.

Lu Yu relied entirely on the powerful world permissions, utilizing vast celestial powers, overwhelming Hong with sheer quantity.

Ka-ka-ka~ Hong flew from below, his body making noises continuously as he ascended, the flattened areas quickly bulging to return to normal.

Although the body was restored, Hong's face was as unpleasant as having eaten a fly.

Ji Wudi, on the other hand, silently retreated to a distance when the attack descended, staying merely to find out about Chu Yuxian's whereabouts from Lu Yu.

Or rather, to find out whether Chu Yuxian was still alive.

"Impossible!" Hong shouted angrily, "How could it give you such extensive permissions?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yu pondered briefly, then understood that the "it" Hong mentioned referred to the great cosmic will.

In the eyes of these innate gods and demons, only the great cosmic will was worthy of their attention.

"Nothing is impossible, the reality is right here in front of you, admit defeat!"

Lu Yu looked at Hong and raised his hand to attack again, this time aiming to end the battle once and for all.

Hong stared fiercely at Lu Yu, his eyes gradually turning red, demonic wrath erupting in his heart, slowly losing his sanity.

"I want to kill you!" Hong roared at Lu Yu angrily.

He reached out to grab, and the next moment Lu Yu appeared in front of him, the distance between them was less than a meter.

Originally, Lu Yu should have been caught by his grip on the neck.

After obtaining powerful world permissions, Lu Yu could already interfere with Hong's power. Although he couldn't completely resist it, he wasn't as powerless as before.

Looking at Hong's gloomy face, Lu Yu smiled, reversely pressing down on his face, forcing him back.

Pressing his face, constantly pushing him back.

Power concentrated in his palm, emitting a destructive aura.

Hong's face turned increasingly unsightly, his mouth tearing to the edge of his ears, gradually demonizing.

Feeling the destructive force brewing in Lu Yu's palm, Hong could only choose to retreat, daring not to confront Lu Yu head-on.

Lu Yu felt the face under his palm suddenly disappear, with a smile of unclear meaning appearing on his face.

The moment Hong disappeared, Lu Yu's figure also faded away quickly.

Ji Wudi waited for a long time but didn't see both of them reappear, as if they had vanished from this world.

In order to evade Lu Yu's deadly attack, Hong actively retreated into the trap set by Lu Yu, entering a small universe.

While Ji Wudi waited for the two to reappear, Lu Yu was already eroding Hong's divine form using the small universe's power.

Expending a huge amount of strength and time, he finally resolved this troublesome enemy.

Of course, compared to Tian Yan, this was slightly easier.

The key lies in that Lu Yu's strength had improved significantly; otherwise, resolving Hong wouldn't be easy either.

Seeing Hong ultimately dissipate in the small universe, Lu Yu turned to look at the great cosmic world.

Now, it's time to claim the last of the world permissions.

Lu Yu immediately locked onto Ji Wudi's position; Ji Wudi didn't conceal his presence, he was waiting for Lu Yu to come to him.

He knew Lu Yu would definitely come.

When his avatar appeared in front of Ji Wudi, Ji Wudi wasn't surprised at all.

"You've arrived," Ji Wudi said as he looked at Lu Yu, "I just want to know one thing, where did they all go?"

Initially, Ji Wudi had many questions, but upon seeing Lu Yu appear, those questions vanished.

All he wanted to know now was where the disappeared Saint Ancestor-level demons and Martial Cultivators, the vanished Chu Yuxian and Wuya Zi, and the missing demonized innate god went.

Hearing this, Lu Yu paused slightly, raised his hand to open a door, and made a gesture of invitation, "Everything you want to know is inside."

This time, Ji Wudi didn't hesitate and walked directly into the door.

He had always wanted to know what exactly was happening.
