Free Web NovelThree months after Lu Ze went into seclusion.
Suddenly, a figure emerged from the barrier surrounding Lingyu Pavilion.
"It's finally over..."
Lu Ze stretched.
At this moment, he had already broken through to the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm and completely refined the Void Soul Crystal.
Breaking through realms is simple; just say "system points" and it's done.
The majority of time was spent refining the Void Soul Crystal.
The Void Soul Crystal truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier divine sense treasure; even with his aptitude, it took him an incredibly long time to refine it.
During the refining process, he finally understood why the Illusion Alliance would entrust the Void Soul Crystal to him so confidently.
Refining the Void Soul Crystal is extremely dangerous.
If it weren't for his Myriad Manifestations Profound Demon Immortal Body being able to absorb all laws and having top-tier stats in all aspects, he might not have been able to completely refine it.
Every bit of energy that overflows is enough to burst a cultivator's divine sense.
Everyone thought that they were only exceptionally skilled in illusions;
Little did they know that, in terms of innate talent, Lu Ze was an unparalleled mountain.
"The Illusion Alliance thought they could use this Void Soul Crystal to suffocate me, but little did they know..."
Lu Ze smiled.
"One Void Soul Crystal is not even enough to completely strengthen my divine sense."
Fortunately, he didn't suffer any losses, because Lu Ze had also dug some pits for the Illusion Alliance in that Illusion Tower.
After absorbing the Void Soul Crystal, his sea of consciousness was not yet fully filled.
Lu Ze estimated that a single Void Soul Crystal only filled about one-third of the space.
In other words, he can refine two more.
"Luckily, I didn't suffer any losses... The Illusion Alliance must have received the 'gift' from that Illusion Tower by now, right?"
Lu Ze smiled faintly, then pinched his chin with a slight headache.
"But these Void Soul Crystals are extremely rare... Where can we find them? Are we limited to trying our luck in ancient secret realms?"
Sending him to try his luck in the ancient secret realm is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Never mind... I'll find another opportunity to fleece the Illusion Alliance later."
Lu Ze muttered to himself as he spread his divine sense around.
Having broken through his cultivation realm and refined a Void Soul Crystal, Lu Ze's divine sense was now terrifyingly strong.
He walked out of the barrier set up by Chaowendao and Nangongyuan without attracting their attention, something he could never have done before.
Lu Ze moved slightly and appeared at the entrance of the weapon refining pavilion in the blink of an eye.
Those sitting inside were all old acquaintances of Lu Ze.
A group of people were playing games together in the weapon refining pavilion for the first time ever. Lu Ze couldn't help but use his administrator privileges to see what they were doing.
Zhou Yue and Mu Yawen were playing Hextech Brawl, while Zhong Yi, Zhou Qiaoling, and Nangong Yuan were playing chess together.
Zhou Yue: "Haha! 【Qualitative Change: Prism】!...Holy crap!! What the hell is 【Return to Basics】? I'm the Barbarian King!!!"
Mu Yawen: "Steel! Hehe... Steel!! More steel!!! Senior Brother Zhou, I've steeled five!! Huh... How come everyone's dead?"
Nangong Yuan: "Little Zhou, can you sell one of those pig girls? You've already got six..."
Zhou Qiaoling: "I won't listen, I won't listen, I'll just play Lucky Star!"
The four of them were chatting and laughing, but Zhong Yi had a bitter face and didn't say a word for a long time.
"What's wrong with Senior Brother Zhong? Why is he so silent?"
Lu Ze couldn't help but ask curiously.
"He... before he went all in, he said he wanted to find a 3-star 5-cost unit at level 10, but he didn't get a Sett and got depressed, hahaha... Huh!??"
Zhou Qiaoling was laughing for a moment when she suddenly realized what was happening and withdrew her consciousness from the illusion as if she had seen a ghost.
"Junior Brother Lu!?"
Lu Ze's appearance immediately caused the group to exit the illusion.
"Junior Brother Lu, you... you've broken through?"
Zhong Yi stared at Lu Ze in utter shock, and couldn't help but recall the moment not long ago when he saw Lu Ze appear as the sect leader of the Dream-Making Sect in the illusion of "Going to the Moon Realm," and he was ready to beat him up.
Now it seems...
They might not be able to beat the other party.
Zhong Yi couldn't help but regret his actions. How could he have forgotten about this because of a piece of candy?
"Good disciple...you've refined the Void Soul Crystal as well?"
Nangong Yuan excitedly circled around Lu Ze.
Despite being a Nascent Soul cultivator, he was like air to him, and he couldn't sense anything about him.
"Um."
Lu Ze nodded, paused for a few seconds, and then added:
"That Void Soul Crystal is no ordinary object. I was only able to refine a small portion of it before reaching my limit... but I have benefited greatly from it."
Considering that the Illusion Alliance was always watching him, Lu Ze decided to conceal the truth for a while.
Having an information gap allows you to better trick the other side.
"Is this thing really that difficult to refine?"
Nangong Yuan was clearly taken aback.
The Taixu Soul Crystal is a product of the ancient war between good and evil, and is extremely rare.
If 【Heart Demon】 hadn't personally refined it, he wouldn't have known about the backlash characteristics of the Taixu Soul Crystal, and Nangong Yuan was completely unaware of it.
"Then the Beast Taming Sect's wish is likely to be in vain. You no longer need this Void Soul Crystal..."
Nangong Yuan shook his head and sighed.
Upon hearing this, Lu Ze's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked:
"What do you mean by that, Master? What is the Beast Taming Sect and the Void Soul Crystal all about?"
"After you went into seclusion for a month, Sect Master He of the Beast Taming Sect came to visit, offering a Void Soul Crystal in exchange for you creating an illusionary realm for his Beast Taming Sect to avert its calamity..."
Before Nangong Yuan could finish speaking, Lu Ze, his eyes brimming with barely concealed urgency, quickly pressed for an answer:
"Master, where is Sect Leader He now?"
Nangong Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Didn't you say that you could only refine a small portion of the Taixu Soul Crystal before reaching the limit...?"
Lu Ze immediately straightened his face, his aura of righteousness surging forth, and said solemnly:
"What soul crystals? I have the potential to become a quasi-saint! The calamities of the righteous sects are my calamities! How could I not help them!?"
"???"
Nangong Yuan was stunned for a long time. He slapped himself before he was convinced that the words came from Lu Ze's mouth.
"It's too late."
“A month ago, Sect Leader He received a secret letter and hurriedly returned home...”
