Chapter 502

The divine soul power within his body was instantly activated, circulating within him.

The blurry figure gave a faint smile: "It seems you have a special affinity with the Netherworld Overlord Sword, and you can resonate with it."

Lu Yuan tightly gripped the Netherworld Overlord Sword, feeling the inconceivable power contained within.

He knew that encountering the blurry figure and the Netherworld Overlord Sword in this divine wandering realm was no coincidence.

"Please guide me on how to wield the Netherworld Overlord Sword."

Lu Yuan said respectfully, full of anticipation.

The blurry figure nodded and smiled: "Very good."

"First, you need to unite yourself with the sword intent."

"At the start, you can try using the Five Elements Escape Technique."

Lu Yuan closed his eyes, focusing entirely on infusing his divine soul power into the Netherworld Overlord Sword.

Immediately, he gripped the sword hilt and activated the Five Elements Escape Technique.

Under the guidance of the blurry figure, Lu Yuan's figure became agile like the wind, and the surrounding space instantly twisted.

He could feel the power of the Five Elements circulating within him, enveloping the entire divine wandering realm.

The blurry figure nodded in praise: "Very good, you have initially mastered the Five Elements Escape Technique."

"But next, you still need to learn more powerful techniques."

Lu Yuan's gaze was firm: "Please instruct me."

The blurry figure smiled and explained: "Next is the Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation."

"This is a supreme art that can gather stellar power. I will teach you its essentials."

Lu Yuan closed his eyes again, concentrating on feeling the essence of the Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation.

He patiently guided the stellar power to gather within himself, and merged it with the Netherworld Overlord Sword.

When he opened his eyes again, he had become different; the originally blurry figure also became clear at this moment.

"Thank you for your guidance." Lu Yuan felt grateful toward the blurry figure.

The blurry figure waved a hand: "You possess exceptional perception and talent; this is the result of your own effort."

"I merely provided some guidance."

Lu Yuan smiled faintly, realizing that encountering the Netherworld Overlord Sword and the blurry figure in this divine wandering realm, and learning the Five Elements Escape Technique and the Heavenly Gang Big Dipper Formation, was his own opportunity. A thrill ran through him. He walked out of the Xuanwu Hall of the Te Xun Ying, arrived at the Hanlu Manor, and continued his cultivation in this quiet and mysterious place.

However, he did not expect that trouble would soon find him after entering the manor.

Han Yunzi, a young cultivator who trained alongside Lu Yuan in the Te Xun Ying, had long harbored jealousy toward him.

Seeing Lu Yuan rush into the manor, he immediately launched an attack without hesitation.

Han Yunzi wielded a sharp sword, its blade flashing with fierce divine soul power.

"Lu Yuan, you arrogant fellow!"

"Do you think having the Netherworld Overlord Sword lets you act without restraint?" Han Yunzi shouted angrily.

Lu Yuan stared in shock at the scene before him, not expecting to fall into such a situation.

Faced with Han Yunzi's frenzied and powerful assault, he felt utterly unable to retaliate.

At that moment, Madame Snow Moon walked over from the side.

She is the wife of Han Yuecheng, the owner of Hanlu Manor, and also a cultivator.

She held a graceful jade fan, her demeanor gentle as she stepped between the two.

"Han Yunzi, what you are doing is wrong." Madame Snow Moon's voice carried a kind aura.

Han Yunzi turned his head, his eyes fierce as he glared at Madame Snow Moon: "Madame Snow Moon, mind your own business!"

"I simply cannot stand Lu Yuan's arrogant behavior."

Madame Snow Moon smiled slightly: "Han Yunzi, if you have any grievances, you can discuss and resolve them with me; why resort to violence?"

"Lu Yuan merely gained some opportunity in his cultivation."

Han Yunzi hesitated at her words, but he did not withdraw his attack.

"He already has the Netherworld Overlord Sword in hand, which is enough arrogance!"

"I will make him feel my power."

Having said that, Han Yunzi launched another attack.

His sword dance produced wave after wave of fierce and terrifying sword qi, sweeping toward Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan's face turned pale, his heart filled with fear and helplessness.

Nevertheless, Madame Snow Moon did not retreat.

She unfolded her jade fan, forming a soft protective barrier before her, blocking Han Yunzi's sword qi.

"Han Yunzi, you also know my strength."

"Why bother making things difficult for Lu Yuan?" Madame Snow Moon said gently.

Han Yunzi's face darkened somewhat, but he still refused to relent: "I don't believe he obtained the Netherworld Overlord Sword merely through opportunity."

"I want to test just how strong he really is."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan realized Han Yunzi probably could not be persuaded.

He took a deep breath and bravely rose to his feet.

"Han Yunzi, do you want to test my strength?"

"Come on! I will let you see my growth."

Han Yunzi revealed a hint of a ferocious smile.

"Good!"

"Since you are so bold, then accept my challenge!"

At this moment, Lady Snow Moon's voice sounded again: "You two are both part of the manor; I hope to quell the dispute between you."

I hope you consider this carefully. We should coexist peacefully and make progress together.

Her words were sincere and gentle, giving both a chance to stop fighting.

Lu Yuan and Han Yunzi exchanged a glance, then finally ceased their attacks. On a square at Longyuan Pass, Lu Yuan met four powerful figures: the silver-armored warrior, the glass maiden heroine, the heavenly recluse, and King Kong.

Sunlight shone on them, filtering through the thick clouds to cast a variegated halo.

The silver-armored warrior looked sharply at Lu Yuan, showing a hint of praise: 'Young man, not bad strength.'

'To master such profound immortal arts shows your talent is unmatched.'

Lu Yuan nodded and smiled: 'Thank you for the praise; I am not one who dares to inflate himself.'

'To receive recognition from someone as strong as you is an honor for me.'

He felt boundless admiration in his heart for being able to come into contact with the experts on the fringe of the cultivation world.

These experts could master and use immortal arts far more profound than his, making him realize he still has a long way to go.

Just then, King Kong stared fixedly at the holy altar, his face showing greed.

'There must be tremendous energy inside the holy altar!'

'If I obtain them, my strength will skyrocket, and then I will be invincible under heaven!'

The glass maiden heroine's face turned cold, and she said in a cold voice: 'King Kong, you're being outrageous!'

'The holy altar is a treasure of the cultivation world; it must not be coveted without permission.'

The heavenly recluse also furrowed his brow: 'King Kong, you should know that touching the holy altar will bring unforeseeable consequences.'

'Please think carefully before acting.'

King Kong curled the corner of his mouth in a cold smile, unmoved: 'Who says my plan will fail?'

'I want that kind of powerful strength!'

Lu Yuan showed a look of unease.

He clearly knew that once King Kong touched the energy inside the holy altar, it would bring great disaster. (End of chapter)
