Chapter 36: Ingredients Delivered to the Door? Di Jun Wants to Abduct Lu Yun!
Since the kitchenware was now in his hands, Lu Yun naturally decided that after his Tribulation Transcendence Stage, he would quickly search the Points Mall for more culinary-related items to properly refine his cooking skills! After all, if his cooking was good, he could enjoy it himself, not to mention that he had previously triggered a legendary quest—how could he possibly give that up?
Of course, for the moment, the priority was still the Tribulation Transcendence.
The sixth Heavenly Tribulation had already been so fierce; he felt that the coming Tribulation Lightning would likely be even harder to deal with.
Therefore, he immediately began to refine the Battle Puppet he had just purchased! When this Battle Puppet was taken out, it was only the size of a palm, but once Lu Yun dripped his blood to claim ownership and obtained its relevant information, he learned that at its strongest, it could unleash attack power comparable to the peak of the Earth Immortal realm.
And this was just a 10,000-point Battle Puppet.
If it were a 100,000-point one, wouldn't it be even more powerful? Lu Yun suddenly felt that after his Tribulation Transcendence ended, he should really try to earn more points! Moreover, to use this Battle Puppet, it also needed to be paired with Spirit Stones.
His gaze suddenly fell upon the broken stone fragments scattered around.
These stones were naturally the rubble left behind after the Stone Palace that Houtu had built for him was shattered by the Tribulation Lightning.
According to the fact that the stones he uploaded earlier were judged by the Chat Group as Spirit Stones, then these stones should be as well! Therefore, Lu Yun hurriedly took advantage of the time before the seventh strike fell to quickly pick up several stones from the surroundings and stuff them into the Battle Puppet.
"Hum!"
The array directly absorbed these few stones, and the Battle Puppet in his hand suddenly glowed with Spirit Light.
"It really works!"
Lu Yun felt a surge of joy in his heart and hurriedly picked up more stone fragments.
Not only could these be used to replenish the Battle Puppet's energy, but uploading them to the Points Mall could also earn him points—they were hard currency! However, his actions left the few Ancestral Witches who were roasting meat nearby feeling somewhat confused for a moment.
Zhurong scratched his head and said, "What is this Human Race doing?"
Xuanming was also bewildered: "He isn't focusing on his Tribulation Transcendence; why did he suddenly start picking up those stones?"
Dijiang guessed, "I think he seems to be stuffing stones into that thing in his hand? What is that thing anyway?"
The others looked at Houtu with confusion.
They felt that since Houtu had prior contact with this Human Race, she might know something about him.
However, Houtu was actually quite confused as well.
She pondered for a moment and decided to send a voice transmission directly to ask Lu Yun: "Human Race, what are you doing?"
Lu Yun heard Houtu's voice transmission, and his movements paused slightly.
But soon he continued to pick up the stones and replied: "This Stone Palace was, after all, built by you for me. Now that it has been shattered by the Heavenly Tribulation, it is truly a pity! So, I want to pick these stones up and see if I can piece it back together later."
After saying this, he increased his speed and continued to pick up the stones.
Houtu couldn't help but be stunned; she hadn't expected Lu Yun to give such an answer.
But she had no doubts about it and just hurriedly said to Lu Yun: "You should focus on your Tribulation Transcendence. If you like it, I will just build you another Stone Palace later!"
It just so happened that Lu Yun had almost finished picking up the stones around him, so he hurriedly replied: "Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?"
Houtu said: "What trouble is there in that? Just wait until you succeed in your Tribulation Transcendence before talking about it!"
Lu Yun said no more and focused on his Tribulation Transcendence.
Houtu then told the other Ancestral Witches about Lu Yun's answer.
Upon learning that Lu Yun cherished the Stone Palace so much—which Houtu had built in imitation of Pangu Hall—the Ancestral Witches all felt very happy.
Dijiang laughed: "In that case, Houtu, you can just build him a sturdier one later to serve as his cave dwelling!"
The other Ancestral Witches had no objections. After all, they were still obsessed with the roasted meat Lu Yun had taught Houtu to make, and they wanted to repay Lu Yun; wouldn't this be a form of repayment?
Just then, Ancestral Witch Xuanming suddenly thought of another matter: "Strange, the clansmen from your Ancestral Court, Houtu, also set out when I just arrived. Logically, they should have reached here by now; why haven't they come yet?"
Hearing this, the others also felt that the situation was not right.
Houtu frowned and said: "Let me investigate!"
Immediately, she closed her eyes, channeled the Earth Great Dao Law, and began to investigate in the direction of the Houtu Ancestral Court.
Upon this investigation, her expression suddenly sank, because she sensed that her clansmen were only ten thousand miles away, but they were currently being blocked, and both sides had already started fighting.
Those blocking them were none other than a group from the Demon Race! Houtu told the other Ancestral Witches nearby about her findings directly.
Instantly, the expressions of the several Ancestral Witches also turned ugly.
Zhurong said angrily: "These Demon Race members are truly courting death!"
Xuanming sneered, stood up, and said: "Just as well, the beast meat isn't enough to eat; since they have delivered themselves to our doorstep, how can we not accept?"
Once these words were spoken, the eyes of the other Ancestral Witches lit up.
They had already eaten who knows how much roasted meat, having almost finished all the edible Demon beast meat in the vicinity.
Now that they still felt they hadn't eaten enough, they naturally wanted to eat more.
Moreover, the people from the Houtu Ancestral Court were coming, so they would likely need to eat too, and they had to prepare more! Xizi said impatiently: "I'll go right now!"
As the words fell, his figure suddenly transformed into a bolt of lightning and flew away at high speed.
"Wait, I'm going too!"
Zhurong immediately transformed into a stream of fire and chased after him! Xuanming naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity for slaughter!
Soon, only three Ancestral Witches remained at the scene: Dijiang, Jumang, and Houtu.
Dijiang and Jumang felt that it was enough for Zhurong and the others to go, and the two of them could continue eating the roasted meat.
Houtu, however, had not forgotten her duty to protect Lu Yun, so she chose to stay behind, believing that Zhurong and the others could bring her clansmen over.
High in the sky.
Di Jun and Taiyi suddenly stopped their movements.
They were hiding above the clouds, their gazes sweeping over Houtu and the others below.
Taiyi sneered: "These Ancestral Witches are truly cautious!"
Di Jun had been staring at Lu Yun, who was still undergoing his Tribulation Transcendence, a look of suspicion appearing in his eyes: "Under these circumstances, they actually left three behind to continue guarding; it seems that the person undergoing the Tribulation is indeed extraordinary!"
Unfortunately, because Houtu had used a Supernatural Power to isolate the investigation, and Di Jun and Taiyi did not want to rashly alert Houtu, they did not forcibly break Houtu's Supernatural Power, so they could not see clearly.
Taiyi asked: "Brother, what should we do now?"
Di Jun pondered for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "Taiyi, you should reveal yourself; Dijiang and Jumang will inevitably be lured away by you! At that time, I will personally take action and abduct the person undergoing the Tribulation!"
Taiyi's eyes lit up: "Good idea, then I'm off!"
Before the words had even faded, he transformed once again into a streak of golden light and headed in the direction Xuanming and the others had just left!
