Chapter 757: Chapter 757: 384: Heavenly Pride on the Tai Yuan Heroes List

After three months of seclusion,

Lu Yun’s cultivation level had reached the eleventh layer of the Heavenly Human Realm, and all his Divine Abilities had reached the seventh grade Perfection, his consciousness condensed to the utmost.

His eyes sparkled even more brightly.

This time, upon re-entering the Forbidden Tower, he was bound to advance irresistibly.

With a thought, the cultivation room door opened, and Lu Yun stepped out as the stone doors slowly closed behind him.

At the same time, all the sharpness around Lu Yun was fully retracted, and he maintained the aura of the ninth level of the Heavenly Human Realm.

The Cave Mystic Divine Stealth Technique allowed him to control his aura at will, enhancing or concealing his realm as he pleased.

Yuan Fei and the other two who were waiting outside were all startled upon seeing Lu Yun emerge from seclusion.

“Lu Yun, have you made another breakthrough?!”

“Mild gains.”

“…”

Yuan Fei and the others were stunned into speechlessness.

In the time since they had entered the Green Flame Palace, they hadn’t been slow in their cultivation.

They had quickly ascended from the first level of the Heavenly Human Realm to the third level in just over a year, far exceeding the geniuses of the Black-yellow Great World.

But that was as far as it went. After digesting their initial stocks of accumulated potential, their explosive growth period had ended, and their cultivation speed slowed down, becoming similar to that of the other Green Flame Palace disciples.

Among the Heavenly Prides from the Small World, only a few were still able to maintain a relatively fast cultivation pace.

But it was nowhere near as fast as in the beginning.

Yuan Fei, for instance, had already been at the fifth level of the Heavenly Human Realm three months ago.

But now, he had only improved a little, and to break through again would take at least another year’s time.

Meanwhile, Lu Yun had advanced another realm in just three short months!

Such speed, how could others bear it?

Yuan Fei gave Lu Yun a probing look and asked, “Lu Yun, just how strong are you now?”

“Why, do you want to spar with me?” Lu Yun’s eyes twinkled teasingly.

With substantial progress in his cultivation strength, Lu Yun was in a great mood and also wanted to see what level Yuan Fei was at.

Yuan Fei gave Lu Yun a stupid look, “Are you going to bully me, someone who’s been an Entry Level newcomer for just two years, you, a prominent figure on the Mountain River List way above me?”

“When did I become a Heavenly Pride of the Mountain River List, aren’t I a newcomer just like you?”

Lu Yun tugged at his mouth. Yuan Fei, that guy, was seen at the battle platform every other day. Eager to fight at any opportunity, Lu Yun thought that with just a little provocation he might teach him a lesson, but he wasn’t taking the bait at all.

Ignoring Lu Yun’s malevolent look, Yuan Fei said seriously, “We three have agreed to challenge the Forbidden Tower together. Lu Yun, want to join us?”

Li Zhichang and Wei Xinhuh also turned their expectant gazes towards Lu Yun.

Lu Yun nodded with a chuckle, “I was also looking to test my strength; let’s do this together!”

“Haha, that’s even better! With you around, we’ll definitely attract a lot of attention, and then more people will get to witness my great splendor,” Yuan Fei grinned widely and laughed boisterously.

Wei Xinhuh brutally commented, “As long as Lu Yun is there, who’s going to pay attention to you?”@@novelbin@@

Li Zhichang also glanced at Yuan Fei and shook his head slightly.

“In your state as a fifth level Heavenly Human, let’s not talk about the entire Green Flame Palace, even within our Tai Yuan branch, there are countless others like you.”

Yuan Fei went crazy, rolling up his sleeves to reveal his muscular arms, and threatened fiercely, “I’ll give you two other chances to rephrase that.”

Contrary to expectations, his threat did not work at all; instead, it bolstered Wei Xinhuh and Li Zhichang’s morale even further.

“Tsk tsk, you’re the famous Demonic Ape Yuan Fei, how have you fallen so low as to bully us two fragile newcomers. If you’ve got the guts, have a go with Lu Yun,” they challenged.

Yuan Fei would not be provoked so easily. His large hands firmly grabbed Wei Xinhuh and Li Zhichang, and headed for the battle room, all the while muttering, “You two dare to create trouble if not beaten for three days. Today, I’ll let you know what the Great Ape’s Eighteen Palms are.”

Unable to break free, Wei Xinhuh issued a high-pitched plea for help, “Lu Yun, save me…”

Lu Yun simply shook his head with a smile, amusement twinkling in his eyes.

Life should not consist only of cultivation; a bit of relaxation now and then wasn’t bad either.

Soon, cries like those of a pig being slaughtered emanated from the battle room.

Lu Yun could clearly identify the voice as belonging to Wei Xinhuh.

After about thirty breaths, the three of them walked out of the battle room.

Yuan Fei walked proudly in front, hands clasped behind his back, his face beaming with satisfaction.

Wei Xinhuh and Li Zhichang each sported a black eye and glared fiercely at Yuan Fei leading the way.

Lu Yun could tell at first glance that the black eyes on Wei Xinhuh and Li Zhichang were suspicious, a peculiar power lingering on them, preventing the two men’s life force from healing.

“Finished so quickly?”

“Since there’s still plenty of time,” Lu Yun suggested with a laugh, “why don’t you go back and have another match, then head to the Forbidden Tower when you’ve had your fill of fun?”

Upon hearing this, Yuan Fei’s eyes darted uncertainly, and he glanced back at Wei Xinhuh, clearly tempted.

Truth be told, he was actually getting quite addicted to the fights.

Feeling Yuan Fei’s eager gaze, Wei Xinhuh and Li Zhichang couldn’t help but shudder involuntarily.

The man was a battlefield beast, a human-shaped behemoth who simply bulldozed through; they were utterly unable to defend themselves.

“Lu Yun, be human, please!” Wei Xinhuh pleaded vehemently.

“Oh, what if Yuan Fei and I team up for some mixed doubles?” Lu Yun’s eyes shone brightly only to be met by Wei Xinhuh’s mournful gaze.

“Haha, I’m just joking; don’t take it seriously.”
