Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 448 - 273: Mission Reward_3

If it weren't for Lu Yu being too close to the Sand God's statue, he couldn't guarantee he could control Lu Yu's power; none would have been allowed to leave.

As long as Lu Yu dared to leave from there, Sha Qian could instantly kill him.

Lu Yu sighed, his body enveloped in an earthy yellow glow.

In an instant, a gray ray shot out from Lu Yu's fingertip, and his figure disappeared from the statue's shoulder, shooting into the ground like a bullet.

Boom! Lu Yu's attack hit the statue, and the statue's head was smashed by Lu Yu's strike. The minds of everyone in the Sand King's Hall were momentarily stunned, unable to imagine that the statue they worshipped could one day be broken.

Bam~ Lu Yu was struck by a force, and instantly his body shattered into several pieces, crashing into the ground.

In the last moment, Lu Yu could barely retrieve most of his body, desperately fleeing and diving deeper into the underground.

The surrounding world grew darker until, after breaking through a boundary, the entire world turned red; he had entered the molten layer.

Lu Yu stopped, dismissing the glow of earth escape, his body revealing itself, with almost two-thirds of his flesh and blood vanished without a trace.

He only managed to retrieve his bones when he was struck and shattered.

The bones were relatively hard, and with blood and flesh as a buffer, Lu Yu's bones were not broken — only the joints between them were dislocated, allowing him to "pick" them back.

The rest of the flesh and blood had been smashed into mince, and even if he retrieved them, they might not fit anymore.

"Alas~" Lu Yu sighed deeply, his chest heaving a few times.

His heart was still beating, so he was still alive.

[Task 1 completed, five tasks completed in total, rewards stacked five times]

[Would you like to settle the task rewards?]

Lu Yu received a notification, knowing Chu Tiange and Chu Tianhe had safely left Black Sand City; the opportunity he had risked getting injured for was not in vain.

He had already completed 5 tasks, reaching the maximum, and couldn't do any more tasks.

As for the remaining two tasks to help the Sand King's Hall deal with Chu Tiange, they were impossible to complete. Now, his relationship with the Sand King's Hall was hostile, and they would spare no effort to hunt him down the moment he appeared. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

In fact, when Sha Qian appeared, Lu Yu planned to escape, but little did he expect that after diving underground, he'd find the Sand King's Hall unguarded, leading to the earlier scene.

"Settle task rewards," Lu Yu said.

He was very much looking forward to the rewards for this task, having paid such a gruesome price; the rewards should be substantial.

[Task reward settlement in progress, checking player completion of five tasks, task rewards being stacked...]

[Task reward settlement: Obtained corresponding realm Celestial Dao Experience Points for level five]

[Obtained Celestial Dao Experience Points, Nine Revolutions Diamond Body promoted to sixth revolution, Spiritual Power...]

[Obtained Celestial Dao Experience Points, Nine Revolutions Diamond Body promoted to seventh revolution, Spiritual Power...]

[Obtained Celestial Dao Experience Points, Nine Revolutions Diamond Body promoted to eighth revolution, Spiritual Power...]

[Obtained Celestial Dao Experience Points, Nine Revolutions Diamond Body promoted to ninth revolution, Spiritual Power...]

Lu Yu's entire body glowed with golden light, even his bones covered with a thick golden glow. The Nine Revolutions Diamond Body cultivated to the utmost could reduce seventy percent of physical damage.

If Lu Yu could also comprehend the mysteries of the Diamond Sutra, he could even gain immunity to abnormal status effects caused by martial arts and Secret Techniques below the Core Formation Realm.

But he did not comprehend the Diamond Sutra, only gaining the physical damage reduction effect of the Nine Revolutions Diamond Body.

Suddenly, the golden light on Lu Yu's body became restrained, and the surrounding heat rapidly increased. A large amount of fire Spiritual Qi rushed into Lu Yu's body, his bone marrow emitting a molten glow.

[Obtained Celestial Dao Experience Points, Ice and Fire Seven Heavens promoted to the sixth heaven, Spiritual Power...]

Just when Lu Yu was worried there was only fire Spiritual Qi here, a surge of cold air poured down from above, responding to the scorching hot air entering his body from below.

Lu Yu felt an incessant itching all over his body. Looking down, he saw tiny buds of flesh growing on his bones, rapidly enlarging at a speed visible to the naked eye, his broken body beginning to recover.

He resisted the urge to scratch, focusing his mind on operating the Ice and Fire Seven Heavens Cultivation Technique to distract himself, so as not to affect the regeneration of flesh and blood by scratching.

Uncertain how much time had passed, Lu Yu no longer felt itchy, feeling warm all over.

Opening his eyes, he found himself soaking in molten lava. The enhancement from the Celestial Dao Experience Points obtained as task rewards had concluded.

Checking his attributes, Lu Yu realized how precious this reward was, directly compensating for his past inadequacies in Spiritual Power cultivation and keeping up with realm advancement.

[Name: Lu Yu]

[Realm: Eightfold Qi Sea Realm (0/80,000,000)]

[Physique: Iron Bones Realm]

[Qi Blood: 8973]

[Spiritual Qi: 160,720 (Ice 80,000, Fire 80,720)]

[Cultivation Technique: Ice and Fire Seven Heavens (Sixth Heaven), Battle God Technique (Level Twenty, 0/1,000,000)]

[Skills: Omitted...]

[Experience Points: 10,560,000]

[Life Source: 0]

Leaping from the Triple Qi Sea Realm to the Eightfold Qi Sea Realm left Lu Yu's mind a bit dazed.

But the increased power didn't make him feel out of control; it felt very natural and handy.

With a thought, Lu Yu floated up from the Molten River, his clothes flying out of his backpack, slipping onto him automatically.

Glancing at the Molten River, Lu Yu's Spiritual Power surged, tearing open a passage above him, and Lu Yu flew upwards.

He didn't use earth escape but instead used his own power to tear a path from underground to the surface.

Doing so wasn't strenuous and was quite easy. Lu Yu could effortlessly carve out a tunnel through the soil for himself to pass through.

After flying for a while, Lu Yu gave up the idea of digging his way out, unsure how deep he had delved.

Relying on digging, it was unclear how long it would take.

In the state of earth escape, he performed the Heaven's Edge Ruler Step, quickly rushing towards the surface.

In no time, Lu Yu burst out of the earth and soared into the sky.

He glanced around, finding himself amid sparse shrubs, no longer near Black Sand City. However, he was still on the western desert border, relatively close to the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Lu Yu headed towards the direction where the shrubs grew thicker, feeling more vitality as he advanced. After traveling some distance, when he took to the air again, he saw a city on the horizon.

This city was small, only half the size of Yellow Sand City, and seemed unaffected by the recent Sand King's Hall incident, with people living peacefully and prosperously.

Though the city was small, it was still under the Great Zhou Dynasty, housing a branch of the Divine Weapon Pavilion. Lu Yu used the Divine Weapon Pavilion's teleportation array to return to the Divine Weapon Pavilion Secret Realm.

"Finally, I'm out of the western desert. I wonder if Chu Tiange and the others managed to escape?" Lu Yu activated the teleportation array, transporting into the Divine Weapon Pavilion Secret Realm.
