Chapter 1483: Ways of Cultivation

"Really?" Chen Yu looked at Zhenwu with some doubt: "Then are you willing to stay here for a lifetime?"

"Heh, what's wrong with staying here? I enjoy this way of cultivation." Zhenwu muttered to himself: "At least I don't have to face those sanctimonious, so-called righteous people."

"It's been two sixty-year cycles; this world has changed drastically. You should go out and take a look. It's better than staying in this place for a lifetime."

"No, I'd rather stay here. I haven't been out for a long time, and now I have social anxiety. Besides, when I see some people wearing hypocritical cloaks, I can't help but want to beat them up." Zhenwu shook his head.

"Then why do you cultivate? Isn't it to become stronger? If it's to become stronger, and you don't step out of here, who knows how strong you are now?"

Chen Yu's words took this guy by surprise. He was stunned for a long time before muttering: "That's right, I need to become stronger now. If I stay here forever, who will know I've become stronger? No, wait, there aren't many people from my generation still alive, right? Who am I proving it to?"

Zhenwu looked dazed. Clearly, having stayed in this place for so long, his mind had become somewhat abnormal. Chen Yu's words had actually caused him to fall into a demonic obsession.

Seeing the guy's distressed expression, Chen Yu shook his head. He quietly bypassed him and was about to walk toward the back of the Purple Bamboo Forest.

However, at this moment, Zhenwu suddenly opened his eyes. He glared, his eyes as large as copper bells, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Stop."

"Is this fight unavoidable?" Chen Yu stopped helplessly and turned to look at Zhenwu.

"That's right, unavoidable. I can't prove it to anyone else, but I can prove it to you." Zhenwu sneered: "I was almost led astray by you. Since you said that, why don't we have a good spar? It just so happens that I haven't fought anyone in sixty years. The last time I fought was when enemies from Yunlu Residence snuck in here."

"I think if we fight, it will be a lose-lose situation." Chen Yu said helplessly: "How about we stop at a touch?"

"Cut the crap." Zhenwu raised an eyebrow: "If we fight, it's a life-or-death battle. 'Stop at a touch' doesn't exist."

"Alright then, if you insist on saying it like that, I have no choice." Chen Yu shook his head helplessly: "Then let's hurry up, I have other things to do."

"Do you really think you'll have the chance to do other things after fighting me?" Zhenwu looked at Chen Yu, feeling depressed: "You actually didn't prepare to be defeated?"

"I won't be defeated." Chen Yu smiled slightly. This guy's strength was indeed strong.

But his way of cultivation was the same as the other consciousness he had encountered when he first met Li Hongyu.

Chen Yu's current attribute is that he becomes stronger when facing stronger opponents. He had already seen this type of enemy, so fighting him now might not necessarily mean falling behind.

And more importantly, his strength was not as good as Li Hongyu's. If he just stayed here quietly, that would be fine, and Chen Yu didn't want to cause trouble for himself, but unfortunately, he didn't want to be a quiet, handsome man.

Since that was the case, Chen Yu had no choice but to fight him and let him know what this world had become after not leaving the mountain for two sixty-year cycles.

"What mysterious confidence, haha, I kind of like you." Zhenwu laughed loudly. He suddenly slammed his right hand heavily on the edge of the Blood Pool, and his whole body soared into the sky, leaping out of the Blood Pool.

The blood on his body slowly dripped down, revealing his true form.

This guy was indeed a Demon Cultivator, and he had already reached the realm of Demon Body Minor Accomplishment.

Demon Cultivators are extremely terrifying. This way of cultivation takes a crooked path, infusing oneself with demonic power; out of ten who attempt it, not even one succeeds.

But the power of a Demon Cultivator is terrifying; the strength of a Demon Cultivator far exceeds that of a Dharma Cultivator of the same level.

Moreover, this guy before him had reached Demon Body Minor Accomplishment; his chest was already covered with a layer of black scales, and his forehead and back were carved with Demon Marks, making him look extremely sinister.

"You really are a Demon Cultivator. The reason you can't walk out of this Purple Bamboo Forest is because there are Restrictions around it, right?" Chen Yu asked.

"Yes, there are indeed Restrictions around here. The elders of Yunlu Residence locked me here, but they aren't entirely unafraid of me. Now that my cultivation has succeeded, if I want to walk out, it would be a matter of minutes." Zhenwu said with a chuckle.

"Then why do you stay here?" Chen Yu asked.

"This is an excellent place for cultivation." Zhenwu said indifferently: "I stay in this place to avoid being hunted by some Dharma Cultivators who fancy themselves as righteous gentlemen. You know, Demon Cultivators are not tolerated by heaven and earth."

"No wonder." Chen Yu nodded slightly and smiled: "But regardless of the circumstances, your enemies should be the people of Yunlu Residence. We two have no grudges or grievances, so there's no need to fight, right?"

"There is a need, you provoked me just now." Zhenwu said: "So I must fight you. And you're right, I cultivate to become stronger. If I don't fight, how will others see that I've become stronger?"

"Then you can find someone else to fight. I really have things to do today." Chen Yu said, feeling a mix of laughter and tears. He didn't expect this guy to take a casual remark so seriously and remember it so clearly.

"That's not my concern. I only know that you said those words just now, so I must find you." Zhenwu smiled slightly: "Come on, let's start."

He stretched out his hands, and one could see a layer of scales rapidly covering them. His fighting intent reached its peak in an instant, and he said with a grin: "As you can see, I have already reached Demon Body Minor Accomplishment."

"With this Tongpitiegut of mine, almost no weapon can hurt me, so you'd better be careful, young man."

"Thanks for the reminder, I will be careful." Chen Yu nodded. Suddenly, he clenched his right hand, and the Primordial Qi within his body circulated ceaselessly in that instant. Then, with a deep shout, he attacked him with lightning speed.

Bang... Chen Yu's punch hit his chest heavily. It could be said quite shamelessly that Chen Yu's punch was a sneak attack, and he didn't hold back either.

The scales on Zhenwu's chest gathered rapidly, forming a defense on his chest. Chen Yu's punch hit his chest solidly. With a bang, his figure flew backward like a kite with a broken string.
