Starting with Proficiency Panel-Chapter 569 - 667: Ancient Era?!

This was originally a sacrificial witchcraft method with unimpressive combat power, but with the system's optimization and spending 2 points of Power of Destiny, it was actually worth it.

Only then could Lu Ren embark on a cultivation path similar to an all-round comprehensive system.

With a slightly serious expression, Lu Ren arrived at the frontier town in front of him. Seeing the bustling scene with people coming and going and the ancient setting, he breathed a sigh of relief.

This town was called Jiao City. Due to the unique geology, it produced a special fruit akin to a banana. Under the nourishment of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, it became a seasonal fruit loved by cultivators. About eighty percent of the jobs in this town were directly or indirectly related to this banana fruit.

As Lu Ren got closer, he heard the bustling sounds of haggling and focused his gaze carefully. He then discovered that there were peculiar array marks inscribed in the void in this area. Layer upon layer, intricate and densely woven, they ultimately extended to form the comprehensive defensive array of Jiao City.

Although he could not understand the meanings of these array marks, Lu Ren could clearly feel the astonishing power contained within this grand array from its subtle nuances.

"..."

This damn thing is just a frontier town!

Collecting his mood, Lu Ren gathered Thick Earth Essence Qi, adjusting his clothing style to be somewhat similar to the local customs of this world. Fortunately, due to traders coming and going to Jiao City to wholesale bananas for sale, he blended in by shrinking his physique, which was not too peculiar.

Without danger, he entered the city. As soon as he was inside, Lu Ren could sense the presence of over a dozen individuals no less powerful than himself scattered throughout.

Lu Ren chose not to disturb them, concealing his own aura, and mingled on the streets as if he were a common person for several days, only to be shocked to discover that he was actually on Earth!!

Upon hearing this news, Lu Ren felt his scalp tingle. In Heaven-Covering, this planet was revered as the Emperor Star.

This Life Ancient Star had vast and continuous terrain, and in the Mythical Era, Emperor Venerable and Emperor Yuan had collaborated to gather Dragon Vein Mountains from across the cosmos to form the Ninety-nine Dragon Mountains, hoping to nurture an Immortal Artifact and find the Immortal Ascension Land.

Jiao City was one of the territorial ranges of the Yuhua Divine Dynasty on Earth. It had been managed for several centuries, nearly a thousand years, and was deeply entrenched.

However, the native cultivators continued waging war with the Yuhua Divine Dynasty, trying endlessly to drive out this divine dynasty that had come from outside their domain.

What the hell, lacking in a great virtue!

"Well, your physical condition is decent. This is your identification token. Report to the Wu Protection Bureau within three days, or you'll miss the opportunity."

Sitting in front of Lu Ren was a commanding officer in armor with a goatee. He casually tossed a jade token into Lu Ren's hand, his face showing an extremely numb expression, evidently a veteran in this line of work, unmoved by his job tasks.

"..."

Looking at the token in his hand, Lu Ren felt somewhat displeased. He silently accepted it, said thank you, and quickly left.

Watching Lu Ren's departing figure, the commanding officer let out a soft snort. He had seen plenty of such guys. This Earth was indeed special, more frequently producing unique constitutions, but unfortunately, they all ended up as ghostly remains in the end.

Lu Ren's thoughts were not on the commanding officer at all. He returned to the inn where he was staying, looking down at his jade token with a sullen expression.

Careless. Joining the Yuhua Divine Dynasty in this era was akin to joining the national army in '49, a suicidal act.

At that time, unaware, Lu Ren heard that the divine dynasty was recruiting talents and realized it was a good opportunity to learn the Heaven-Covering cultivation method system. When he got there, it was bustling, with many people eagerly hoping to be chosen.

With Lu Ren's astonishing physique, he stood out even without using Witch Power, naturally being selected without much disturbance.

After being selected and seeing the words on the jade token, Lu Ren was alarmed, realizing he had fallen into a massive trap.

Years ago, the Fierce Emperor annihilated the entire Yuhua Divine Dynasty in one blow and then shattered the Immortal Ascension Land on Earth with a slap. The reason was that the Yuhua Divine Dynasty had been interested in the physique of the Fierce Emperor's brother.

In an effort to secure the opportunity for Immortal Ascension, the Yuhua Divine Dynasty had attempted to repair the fragmented Green Passage Cauldron by placing it into the Immortal Ascension Land. However, this process encountered fierce resistance from Earth's native forces.

This was understandable, after all, after fighting and contending for so long, each side had its own territory. For an external divine dynasty to rush in and seize resources is bound to result in a battle before any negotiation occurs.

Due to Earth's exceptional status as a Life Ancient Star, where Emperor Venerable once nurtured numerous extraordinarily powerful individuals with various Life Ancient Stars, creating a unique environment with the layers of complex Emperor Patterns.

Despite Earth's cultivation declining over time, entities from beyond Earth are still subject to suppression when arriving, allowing Earth's forces to hold their own against the flourishing Yuhua Divine Dynasty.

The Yuhua Divine Dynasty eventually learned from somewhere that the Sacred Body could freely operate on Earth without environmental suppression, so it forcibly took him, intending to use him as an advance general. However, during a battle on Earth, he was taken out in one sweep.

Seeing this, the Yuhua Divine Dynasty realized that even the Sacred Body ended up in such a state on Earth, leading them to lose enthusiasm and focus solely on guarding the opportunity for Immortal Ascension while steadily developing their influence on Earth.

While contemplating, Lu Ren suddenly heard a hum echoing through Heaven and Earth, as the clanging of swords resounded, drawing thunder with seemingly boundless power swirling within.

Lu Ren's expression turned grave. Damn, no way, as soon as I arrived, the Fierce Emperor came? Am I really this unlucky?!

He peeked out the window, watching as a thousand-meter sword light appeared from the distance in an instant, striking the bustling defensive array of Jiao City.

The array wove complex patterns into the void, stalling the sword light for a few seconds before shattering, during which Lu Ren sensed divine radiance rising from the city center of Jiao City to meet the sword light head-on.

"Ghost Face, how dare you attack the city?!"

With a stern roar, the divine radiance clashed with the sword light, intertwining, seemingly turning the world into a chaotic mess.

In less than a minute, the sword light retreated into the distance, and the divine radiance returned to the city.

Lu Ren could clearly perceive that both energies were injured; neither side gained the upper hand, and both suffered mutual harm.

The citizens of Jiao City seemed accustomed to this, adeptly retreating to their homes.
