Chapter 20: Enlightenment Halo! Ancestral Witch as Guardian! Lu Yun Cultivates

Lu Yun did not actually begin his cultivation immediately, but instead quietly observed Houtu for a while.

Determining that she was busy roasting meat for herself and had no intention of leaving, he finally set his mind completely at ease.

Lu Yun began to attempt to cultivate *Star Transformation*! However, before he started, he suddenly heard a system notification sound:

"Ding! You have followed the advice and obtained: one Fine Treasure Chest!"

Lu Yun was surprised; he carefully checked the mission panel and only then discovered that he had unintentionally completed the "Befriend the Wu Clan" mission.

Thinking about it, according to the system's judgment, he had just successfully befriended the Wu Clan!

It was not in vain that he had been busy for so long, preparing such a sumptuous barbecue!

Lu Yun did not even think about it and opened the Fine Treasure Chest directly.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining Enlightenment Halo x1! Do you wish to use it?"

Enlightenment Halo?

Lu Yun carefully checked the information on this item, and his heart could not help but fill with joy.

It turned out that this so-called Enlightenment Halo was actually a state that helped others cultivate.

Once activated, within twenty-four hours, Lu Yun would have a huge boost whether he was cultivating or comprehending Supernatural Power, and he would learn everything quickly! Lu Yun really had not expected that there would be this type of reward! It just so happened that he was preparing to cultivate the new technique *Star Transformation*, so he decisively responded: "Yes!"

Instantly, he felt his mind become clear and his thinking become sharp.

Joyful in his heart, he hurriedly began to cultivate.

The content of the *Star Transformation* technique had already been completely imprinted in his mind.

Operating it now, he quickly entered the state.

According to the *Star Transformation* technique introduction, entry required first cultivating the *Heavenly Sky Three Diagrams* to reach the perfection of the Innate Realm in external techniques before one could continue to cultivate further.

And those *Heavenly Sky Three Diagrams* consisted of one hundred and eight movements.

Therefore, after Lu Yun sat cross-legged for a while, he quickly leaped up and began to wave his fists and feet in the open space.

Houtu did not feel surprised to see this; after all, the *Xingyi Fist* that Lu Yun had cultivated before was this type of cultivation technique.

However, she soon discovered that what Lu Yun was cultivating this time was not the previous *Xingyi Fist*, but another new set of techniques.

She watched Lu Yun cultivate with great interest while eating the barbecue.

She saw that when Lu Yun first started practicing, he was clearly still a bit unfamiliar and awkward, but he soon entered a state of proficiency.

Because Lu Yun was currently at the Refining Spirit into Void realm, his physical body had already been fully strengthened during the Refining Essence into Qi stage, and it was completely not inferior to the so-called Innate Realm of the *Star Transformation* world.

Coupled with the fact that he had activated the Enlightenment Halo at this time, not long after, suddenly—

"Hum!"

A layer of silver airflow emerged on his body surface, winding around him and circulating continuously.

This was the manifestation of the first diagram of the *Heavenly Sky Three Diagrams* being cultivated to perfection.

Immediately following, Lu Yun began to practice the second set of movements.

After another moment, the thirty-six movements of this second Heavenly Sky Diagram were also cultivated to perfection by him, and streaks of golden airflow appeared on his body surface again! With the gold and silver airflows entwined, Lu Yun changed his movements again and practiced the thirty-six movements of the third Heavenly Sky Diagram.

Before long—

"Hum!"

The third Heavenly Sky Diagram was also cultivated to perfection by Lu Yun! Purple airflow re-emerged from his body surface, entwining with the original silver and golden airflows, actually forming something like an airflow armor, which looked quite beautiful.

Houtu watched with great relish.

It was certain that the path of cultivation Lu Yun walked was indeed completely different from what she had seen before. Yet, Lu Yun suddenly stopped his movements at this time, sat cross-legged again, and began the next step of cultivation.

*Star Transformation* was different from other cultivation techniques; it emphasized the word "disperse"! At this moment, what Lu Yun had to do was to disperse his magic power to form a nebula in his dantian, truly stepping into the first realm of *Star Transformation*! This step was very important for Lu Yun, but he still carried the Heavenly Condemnation Halo on him, and he was very worried about whether any accidents would occur during the cultivation process, so he specifically asked Houtu to guard him.

And just as he had guessed, while he was working hard to cultivate, an accident suddenly happened.

"Rumble..."

A series of vibrations suddenly came from afar.

Houtu looked toward that direction, and her brows could not help but knit together.

Because a group of Demon beasts had appeared there and were flying toward this side!

Houtu thought to herself: Could it be that those Demon beasts mentioned by Lu Yun earlier had sent out a message before they died, attracting their kin to come for revenge? But logically, those low-level little Demons should not have any ability to transmit messages at all!

Seeing those Demon beasts getting closer and closer, and the commotion they made was about to affect Lu Yun's cultivation, Houtu could not be bothered to think too much and decisively took action.

She saw her suddenly lift her hand gently, and Law Divine Light appeared on her body.

"Hum!"

That stone mountain not far away suddenly floated directly up.

What was incredible was that such a huge stone mountain was lifted from the ground by her from a distance without making any sound.

Clearly, this was Houtu specifically controlling it so as not to affect Lu Yun's cultivation.

Afterwards, under Houtu's control, the stone mountain smashed fiercely toward the group of Demon beasts that were flying toward this side.

How could those Demon beasts have imagined that a great mountain would fall from the sky?

They were all hit squarely and turned into countless piles of meat paste! Moreover, Houtu also isolated the sound, not letting the commotion over there pass over at all.

Having casually dealt with those Demon beasts, Houtu continued to eat the barbecue.

Her stomach seemed like a bottomless pit; she had eaten more than half of a Kui Deer, and she still had no intention of stopping.

However, having eaten so much Kui Deer meat, she suddenly felt a bit greasy and really wanted to change her taste.

Those Demon beasts just now had all been smashed into meat paste by her, and their level was too low, so she really looked down on them.

Houtu pondered whether she should leave for a moment to catch some higher-level Demon beasts, but she was worried that if she walked away, something might go wrong with Lu Yun here.

Just at this moment—

"Boom!"

A loud noise suddenly came from the sky! Houtu looked up and saw that it was actually two Heavenly Immortal-level members of the Demon Race, who were fighting each other intensely.

They seemed not to have noticed Houtu and Lu Yun on the opposite side at all; amidst their frenzied slaughter, various spells collided, causing intense commotion.

Without a doubt, if they were allowed to continue fighting, it would certainly affect Lu Yun's cultivation.

Consequently, Houtu stood up all at once, set down the roasted meat in her hand, and a smile appeared on her face: "Very well, since you have delivered yourselves to my doorstep, then you shall also serve as ingredients!"

The next moment, the Law Divine Light flashed on her body, and she had already appeared before those Demon beasts.

Both members of the Demon Race were shocked and pale.

Anyone capable of appearing before them so suddenly could absolutely not be a simple character.

They immediately went on guard, yet it was of no use.

A moment later, Houtu returned to the spot where she had been roasting meat earlier and began to roast the new ingredients with great satisfaction.
