Chapter 164

In the next few days, Lu Changsheng had been hiding quietly in the depths of the lake, sensing the bursts of breaking wind coming from the high sky above his head, without being moved at all.

At the same time.

The exotic beast pangolin was still collecting various spiritual items in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains with all its might.

He put a strand of his mind into the pangolin's body.

"Hum..."

Looking around, it was still that familiar mineral vein, everywhere filled with a sulfur smell, which was very pungent.

After months of mining, he had already dug up seven or eight out of ten of this mineral mountain.

The high-level spiritual items at the core had also been emptied by him.

However, what made him quite puzzled was that the harvest of this small mineral mountain was too astonishing.

It was much higher than the output of the last mineral mountain.

"Is there any secret in this?"

Lu Changsheng's eyes moved slightly, and he rushed out immediately.

He traveled through the dark underground passages all the way, rushing toward unknown areas.

The bottomless cave entrance in front was like an abyss, wanting to swallow everything.

Half an hour later.

"Shoo..."

Lu Changsheng suddenly felt a brightness in front of him, and his whole body appeared in the center of an underground karst cave.

He saw that the entire karst cave was empty, with only a cluster of spiritual light flickering in the center, which was very magical.

Nearby, there were strands of spiritual energy gathering toward the brilliance.

"Is this a space node of some small world?"

Seeing this situation, Lu Changsheng was stunned.

He clearly sensed a hint of spatial fluctuation on the spiritual light.

Although it was still very weak.

Thinking of this, Lu Changsheng was very delighted in his heart.

If his speculation came true, the treasures of a small world would be left for him to mine.

The harvest would definitely not be small; he just didn't know what kind of creatures he would encounter inside, and how long this world had been formed, and whether there would be source crystals.

A moment later.

Lu Changsheng put away his thoughts and did not hesitate to rush toward the light cluster in front.

His legs kicked, and after a few flashes, he rushed into the light cluster.

"Zzz..."

With a weak spatial fluctuation, Lu Changsheng disappeared directly from the karst cave.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that the surrounding environment had changed greatly.

He was in a large forest, and the nearby trees were as thick as several people hugging them, with lush branches and leaves.

The spiritual energy in the air was also quite rich.

Revealing strands of coolness.

"It really is a small world that has just been born."

Lu Changsheng was overjoyed.

He didn't expect that he really had such good luck to find a space node.

Some small worlds exist relying on the main world and often perish or are born.

Once there is a newly born small world, it will inevitably produce source crystals.

There were also various other spiritual items, which were quite a few.

If martial artists outside discovered this kind of world, they would all swarm in and start competing crazily.

Of course, there would definitely be certain dangers in the small world.

After all, some Innate creatures were not weak.

However, a small world explored entirely by himself was also extremely valuable.

The space node of this world was located deep underground and would not be easily discovered by outsiders.

He had plenty of time to explore slowly.

"Roar..."

At this time, inexplicable beast roars came from the depths of the jungle, rushing into the sky, making people's bodies tighten.

Even the nearby leaves were shaken.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

Lu Changsheng did not hesitate and immediately began to dig crazily toward the ground.

His claws danced rapidly, forming afterimages.

Not long after, a deep passage was formed.

He kicked his legs hard and drilled in suddenly.

Next, Lu Changsheng traveled along the underground passage all the way and began to explore this mysterious world.

After digging hard for several hours.

He sensed a sudden obstacle in front.

"Something happened?"

The unique touch of spiritual ore came from his fingertips, making his spirit shake.

After a long exploration, he finally had a harvest.

Lu Changsheng began to dig through the soil and sand layer in front.

Not long after.

A white-as-jade rock wall was revealed, and the surroundings were emitting strands of fluorescence, which was extremely miraculous.

Even the spiritual energy in the air was much richer.

"Source crystals?"

Lu Changsheng's eyes lit up; he was right, this small world was probably born not long ago, and there were still a large number of source crystals.

As long as he collected them one by one, it would be enough for his cultivation to break through rapidly.

Now the situation in Great Zhou was becoming more and more tense, and the discovery of this world was simply a shot in the arm.

Lu Changsheng suppressed his slightly agitated heart and began to dig hard.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

Pieces of source crystals were dug down by him, and soon piled into a small pile.

"Absorb."

While digging, he muttered in his heart.

【Source Energy Point +10.】

【Source Energy Point +10.】

The resources in his hands began to grow rapidly, as if without limit.

Time passed slowly.

Soon a month passed.

In the Mountain and River Map, deep at the bottom of an unknown lake.

Lu Changsheng slowly opened his eyes and opened the panel.

A blue light screen appeared in the void in front of him.

Source Energy Points: 120,000.

After a long period of strenuous mining, the resources in his hands broke through the 100,000 mark again.

And the plus sign behind 【Glazed Dharma Body】 was also lit up again.

During this time, large groups of martial artists often passed by above his head, but none of them discovered him.

Not only that, he also sensed multiple large-scale battles; clearly, some Heavenly Prides were besieged and fled this world.

Now he intended to break through at the bottom of the lake immediately and then go out to collect tokens.

After all, time was almost half over, and the number of martial artists in the Mountain and River Map had probably decreased a lot.

Then, Lu Changsheng put away his thoughts and immediately clicked toward 【Glazed Dharma Body】.

As the Source Energy Points decreased by 100,000.

A mysterious fluctuation descended into the depths of his mind again, as if a supreme powerhouse was practicing techniques day and night.

Lu Changsheng's comprehension of martial arts was also rapidly improving.

He tried his best to restrain his aura, and not a single change was emitted to the outside world.

The Qi and blood in his body surged crazily, like a roaring great river.

【After years of hard cultivation, you have finally cultivated the Glazed Dharma Body to the minor accomplishment realm.】

With a crisp prompt sound, this improvement officially ended.

Lu Changsheng clenched his fists, and infinite power seemed to surge out of his body.

After breaking through to the Innate middle stage, his strength increased significantly again.

Among all the martial artists in this Ten Thousand Flower Fruit Meeting, his cultivation was also at the top.

Except for those top Heavenly Prides in the top 10, some probably reached the Innate late stage.

Lu Changsheng looked down at his own physical body; his entire body became more and more crystal clear, like a flawless white work of art.

The essence blood inside his body was also clearly visible, flowing through every muscle and bone.

His vitality also increased by a margin again.

According to the lifespan of Innate powerhouses, it was about 260 years; he estimated that he could live at least 400 years.

And as his cultivation improved, his lifespan would also grow.

This kind of vitality was no different from some Innate creatures and demons that were uniquely gifted.

This was mainly because his own foundation was too deep to have such terrifying vitality.

Even if it continued to improve infinitely, it would reach the great power of being able to regenerate from a drop of blood.

A moment later.

Lu Changsheng put away his thoughts, pushed aside the silt above his head, and swam rapidly toward the lake surface.

"Splash, splash..."

Water ripples swayed, and not long after, Lu Changsheng arrived on the lake surface.

Then he leaped immediately and flew toward the northwest.

His physical body traveled between the mountains and forests, stirring up layers of mist. His speed was so fast that the fierce wind blew his robe, making bursts of whistling sounds.

Not long after.

Lu Changsheng discovered a hint of movement in front.

Looking up, he saw five young men flying slowly toward the depths of the jungle, their eyes full of vigilance.

Clearly, the few were searching for something.

At this time, the five also saw Lu Changsheng in the distance, and their expressions suddenly fixed.

"Not good, it's a powerhouse on the Heavenly Pride Ranking, quickly summon the main force to besiege this person."

A man in black had his eyes fixed.

He clearly recognized Lu Changsheng.

The top 1,000 on the Heavenly Pride Ranking had long spread throughout Great Zhou.

Just as the few wanted to escape, a change occurred.

"Shoo..."

A pure white escape light flickered in the void, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the few, intercepting this group of people.

The person who made the move was Lu Changsheng.

"Hand over the tokens, I won't make things difficult for you."

Lu Changsheng stood with his hands behind his back, his expression as calm as water.

"Lord Lu, the tokens in our hands were already snatched, we don't have any."

The man in black had a bitter face.

Sensing the powerful pressure coming from Lu Changsheng, his heart felt cold.

Hearing this, Lu Changsheng's eyes turned cold.

Then he didn't talk nonsense and slashed forward with a blade.

"Clatter..."

Brilliant blade light flickered in the void, as if to cut through everything, and the void emitted bursts of sonic booms.

"Run..."

The five were full of fear; this aura they had only encountered on those few top figures.

Before the few could react, the blade light instantly penetrated their bodies.

The five turned into white light and disappeared into the void.

Seeing that there were no tokens around, Lu Changsheng frowned.

"It seems that the tokens in most people's hands have been snatched."

He turned and flew toward the front again.

In the next few days, Lu Changsheng had been searching for tokens, and many people avoided him from afar when they saw him.

During this period, he also encountered some large-scale teams, but he didn't choose to provoke them.

Hundreds or thousands of Innate powerhouses gathered, which was still quite terrifying.

At the same time, Lu Changsheng also received some information about this world.

After a month of screening, some loose cultivators were cleared out.

Even some figures on the Heavenly Pride Ranking were fewer.

Most Heavenly Prides hid, and a few self-righteous people killed all sides in the world.

Led by those top 10 Heavenly Prides like Ke Yanfeng, they became famous in the Mountain and River Map.

Regarding this, countless martial artists united one after another to fight against the top Heavenly Prides.

Eventually, three large teams were formed, with as many as thousands of people.

There were also countless small teams left.

Five days later.

Early morning.

On the outskirts of a large forest.

Lu Changsheng put away a token on the ground and tucked it into his waist.

After collecting for these days, he already had two tokens in his hands.

Just as he was preparing to leave, a shocking sound suddenly came from the front.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Huge roars echoed through the clouds.

Lu Changsheng looked up and saw a woman in white surrounded by thousands of people, fighting hard, flying rapidly toward the jungle.

Energy splashed wantonly, and grass and trees flew around.

When Lu Changsheng saw the woman's face, he was stunned.

"Qin Ruobing?"

No, he denied it instantly; although the two looked very similar, there were also many differences in the subtle places.

Qin Ruoshui's eyes were full of frost; she waved her sword Qi while scanning the surroundings.

She came out to search for tokens, but didn't expect to be surrounded by a large team.

And the leader of that team was a subordinate of the camp hostile to her father.

This was a bit bad; as time passed, she became more and more anxious in her heart.

"Eldest Miss Qin, surrender quickly and leave the Mountain and River Map, so as not to lose face."

Chu Weixiong was full of pride, and a hint of playfulness appeared in his eyes.

Being able to eliminate the daughter of Marquis Wuyang was also a great merit.

In the outside world, he was definitely not the other party's opponent.

Now, relying on the advantage of the formation, he surrounded the other party.

Qin Ruoshui's eyes were burning with anger, but she was somewhat helpless.

Although her strength was not bad, facing a battle formation of thousands of people, it was very difficult to break out of the encirclement.

Outside, Luo Tianxiang showed a hint of a smile.

"The Marquis's beloved daughter is probably going to be eliminated."

Chu Weixiong was his subordinate, and he didn't expect to bring himself a small surprise.

"Hmph."

Qin Chaoyang's face turned cold, and he didn't open his mouth to refute.

Just as Qin Ruoshui was preparing to give up, she suddenly saw a figure in the depths of the jungle.

When she saw the other party's face, she was happy: "Lu Changsheng, help me quickly."

Her tone was very urgent and carried a hint of closeness.

In her view, with Lu Changsheng's strength, joining forces with her would definitely be able to break out of the encirclement.

However, thinking of her father asking her to take care of Lu Changsheng, now she had to rely on the other party's help, she couldn't help but feel a bit ashamed in her heart.

Lu Changsheng's eyes moved slightly; at this moment, he could be sure that the other party definitely knew him and probably had a close relationship with Qin Ruobing.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the other party to be so sure that he would help.

Lu Changsheng didn't think much and immediately rushed over with his blade.

After a few flashes, he arrived beside the woman.

The two stood side by side, and a powerful aura rushed into the sky.

Seeing Lu Changsheng arrive, Qin Chaoyang breathed a sigh of relief.

His favorability toward Lu Changsheng skyrocketed directly.

Luo Tianxiang on the side frowned; he didn't expect that a sure thing would have a change.

"Lu Changsheng, this matter has nothing to do with you, leave quickly."

Chu Weixiong's face turned cold, and cold light appeared in his eyes.

Surrounding two Heavenly Prides with this formation, the pressure would skyrocket, and it would probably be difficult to succeed.

At this moment, he just wanted to scare Lu Changsheng away.

But the result was completely beyond his expectations.

"Kill."

Lu Changsheng rushed toward the front suddenly.

His body's Gang Qi erupted, forming a transparent Innate Gang Qi, firmly surrounding him.

"Kill this person quickly."

A group of people were full of murderous intent and fully activated their weapons, slashing toward Lu Changsheng.

Violent whistling sounds echoed through the clouds.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Countless blades slashed on Lu Changsheng's Innate Gang Qi, and strands of ripples appeared.

An aura of not moving like a mountain erupted from Lu Changsheng's body.

"This is impossible."

Everyone was shocked.

Being able to take a full blow from thousands of people and still not be broken, this kind of defense was truly too astonishing.

Even Qin Ruoshui on the side was full of horror.

Even she didn't dare to take the attack of a thousand people.

None of them expected Lu Changsheng to have cultivated his protective technique to this level.

The many martial artists outside saw this situation and also felt a shock in their hearts.

The Qingning Prefecture martial artists and a group of people were full of joy.

"Hmph... this person took a crooked path and didn't know it."

Luo Tianxiang sneered.

Cultivating defense to this level must consume a lot of time.

In this way, it would slow down the progress of cultivation.

"This person probably has no hope of becoming a Grandmaster."

His tone was understated.

Even Qin Chaoyang frowned; he also agreed in his heart.

He prepared to persuade Lu Changsheng well after he came out, letting him focus on the martial arts realm.
