In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

Chapter 130 Three Lifetimes: Thousand Faces Without Form, Thunder Prison Divine Blade!

Nanyang Prefecture.

A powerful innate demon died with its eyes wide open, lying in a pool of blood.

This demon stronghold was also stained with blood, and it was completely eradicated in no time!

Lu Yuan activated the Soul Purification Pearl, extracting a semi-transparent soul from the great demon's corpse. He then skillfully cleaned up the battlefield, destroying the evidence.

Do it all.

He then threw down the torch and set the place ablaze.

It has been a full ten days since I last left Qingyun County.

During these ten days, Lu Yuan traveled to various places, frantically killing demons and evil spirits.

Through his tireless efforts, he almost completely wiped out all the demon strongholds within the entire Nanyang Prefecture.

And the number of Heaven-Mending Points in his hands finally broke through the five million mark!

at the same time.

Lu Yuan also learned about the Demon God Palace's attack on the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Division through the blind man and others.

"Several powerful cultivators have perished? It seems the Human Emperor's legacy is more important than I imagined."

Lu Yuan's expression was solemn. He returned to Qingyun County overnight and then took out the bronze mask.

As a flash of white light appeared, the bronze mask also changed.

【Item: A Hundred Faces and a Thousand Appearances】

[Quality: Celestial]

[Description: This mask is an ancient treasure that can alter one's appearance and aura, making it impossible for even a Xuan Dan expert to discern the user's true identity!]

[Hint: Spend 3 million Heaven-Mending Points to upgrade it to a Primordial Spiritual Treasure - Thousand Faces Without Form!]

"With the opening of the Spirit Ruins Cave Heaven this time, there will definitely be many powerful cultivators secretly watching the prodigies from all sides."

"In this way, the hundred faces and a thousand appearances seem a bit insufficient."

After pondering for a moment, Lu Yuan once again used his talent to upgrade the bronze mask to a primordial spiritual treasure.

[Item: Thousand Faces Without Form]

[Rank: Innate Spiritual Treasure]

[Introduction: This treasure contains a trace of the laws of heaven and earth, allowing the user to blend into the world, align with the natural order, and resist the prying eyes of an eighth-rank Saint!]

[Hint: Spend 50 million Heaven-Mending Points to upgrade its quality to a Divine-Rank Supreme Treasure!]

Lu Yuan shook his head.

A powerful innate demon is not a cabbage; to gather so many Heaven-Mending Points, he would have to sweep through the entire Qingzhou.

He stopped thinking about it and focused his attention on the Soul Purification Pearl.

As Lu Yuan's strength increased, the Soul Refining effect of the Soul Purifying Pearl began to lag behind.

Although the Soul Purification Array can transform low-level souls into soul beads, the array's conversion efficiency becomes increasingly slow as the strength of the souls increases.

It now often takes several days to completely refine a primordial soul.

Lu Yuan immediately spent one million Heaven-Mending Points to upgrade it to a Heaven-Rank Supreme Treasure, the Soul Refining Pearl.

It didn't take long.

The internal space of the Soul Purification Pearl has increased more than tenfold!
Furthermore, countless runes and array patterns intertwine, reconstructing a Soul Refining Array on the foundation of the Soul Purification Array!
Compared to before, the efficiency and power of the Soul Refining Array have been significantly improved.

Now, the soul of a primordial demon can be refined into a soul bead in an instant, and even refining the primordial divine soul of a seventh-grade Xuan Dan demon is no problem!

Followed by.

Lu Yuan used another 200,000 Heaven-Mending Points to upgrade the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art to the Bright King Golden Body Technique!
[Martial Arts Technique: Golden Body of the Bright King]

[Grade: Celestial]

[Introduction: This is a superior body-refining martial art created by Bodhidharma, the founder of Dafosi Temple, based on a fragmented ancient body-refining technique.]

[If this technique is cultivated to its fullest potential, one can condense the Vajra Body of the Bright King, capable of tearing apart a sixth-grade Divine Sea Realm martial artist with a mere wave of the hand or a step!]

[Hint: Spending 20 million Heaven-Mending Points can transform this martial art into the Buddhist divine power—the Sixteen-Foot Golden Body!]

"Tear apart a martial artist at the Divine Sea Realm?"

Lu Yuan gasped.

The Great Perfection Vajra Body can at most withstand a single blow from a Divine Sea Martial Cultivator, but the Bright King Vajra Body can defeat a Divine Sea Martial Cultivator with just its physical strength.

This alone is enough to show just how powerful this method is.

As for the sixteen-foot-tall golden statue, there's no need to elaborate further.

In Buddhist scriptures, the sixteen-foot-tall golden body is one of the three bodies of the Tathagata, and is the smaller body among the transformation bodies.

This method is said to be indestructible and eternal.

Once the golden body is revealed, it radiates boundless Buddha light and can save all sentient beings.

Even martial arts practitioners at the Divine Sea Realm dared not look directly at the dazzling light emanating from the golden body!
If Lu Yuan can master the Sixteen-Foot Golden Body technique, he will have a certain ability to protect himself when facing a seventh-grade Xuan Dan expert in the future!

However, the Heaven-Mending Points required for the Sixteen-Foot Golden Body are too exaggerated, and Lu Yuan simply cannot gather them in a short time.

After a moment's thought, he decided to focus on improving other areas where he was weak as soon as possible.

He then used all his Heaven-Mending Points to improve the Wind and Thunder Blade Technique and the Wind and Thunder Divine Intent.

[Martial Skill: Thunder Prison Divine Blade]

[Grade: Celestial]

[Introduction: This sword technique incorporates the power of the Five Elements, and is a supreme martial art created by the Prison Lord. Its power is domineering and unparalleled; each move is a supreme killing move rarely seen in the world!]

[Note: This sword technique requires the Five Thunder God's Intent to cultivate. It costs five million Heaven-Mending Points to upgrade it to a divine ability!]

With all his martial arts skills upgraded, Lu Yuan's combat power increased dramatically.

You should know that every Heavenly Rank martial skill is a closely guarded secret of those major sects, and only core disciples are qualified to cultivate it.

However, Lu Yuan, though alone, had mastered several Heaven-rank martial arts techniques.

If other martial arts practitioners knew this, they would definitely be green with envy!
"There are still several days before the opening of the Spirit Ruins Cave Heaven. I can take this opportunity to thoroughly refine all my martial arts skills."

Lu Yuan seized the time and immediately began cultivating day and night.

While Heavenly Rank martial arts are powerful, they are also exceptionally profound and complex.

For ordinary martial arts practitioners, it would be extremely difficult to even reach the entry level, let alone completely master it, in such a short period of time.

Even the disciples of those great sects and schools need to spend a lot of time and energy to master a Heaven-rank martial art.

However, Lu Yuan possesses an innate Dao body, and with the added advantage of his talent for severing emotions and proving the Dao, his cultivation speed can be described as progressing by leaps and bounds, far exceeding the imagination of ordinary people!

Ten days later.

After studying tirelessly through the night, Lu Yuan finally mastered the four techniques—Dragon Soaring Body Technique, Thunder Prison Divine Blade, Divine Weapon Soul Forging Technique, and Bright King Golden Body Technique—and reached the entry level.

Although it's only an entry-level technique, its power is several times stronger than the previous Earth-rank martial arts techniques!
However, as time goes by, the Lingxu Cave Heaven will soon open.

"Time is running out, I must set off as soon as possible."

Lu Yuan took out the bronze mask, put it on, and his entire aura changed drastically.

He transformed from a handsome young man into a rugged-looking, burly innate martial arts practitioner!
Her voice, temperament, and behavior were completely different from before.

Even if he stood in front of Old Master Lu, the other party might not recognize Lu Yuan's identity!
"The Thousand Faces Without Form is indeed extraordinary; it was worth spending so many Heaven-Mending Points."

A sense of joy welled up in Lu Yuan's heart, and he no longer had any worries. He immediately set off for Lingxu Cave Heaven.

The border of Qingzhou is only a few thousand miles away from Qingyun County. With Lu Yuan's current strength, he can easily arrive there in just three or four hours.

Moreover, Lu Yuan never forgot to use the Dragon Soaring Movement Technique during his journey to hone his martial arts skills.

He stepped on the Heavenly Gang and his body moved like a swimming dragon, disappearing from the spot in an instant!

along the way.

Lu Yuan also encountered many martial arts practitioners who were also heading to the border of Qingzhou.

These martial artists varied in strength and were also attracted by the Human Emperor's inheritance, trying to gain some benefits from the Spirit Ruins Cave.

Especially as they approached the border of Qingzhou, more and more martial artists converged from all directions. They were densely packed, numbering at least hundreds of thousands!
Besides.

Many innate demons also emerged from the mountains and swaggered around Qingzhou!
"So many flesh and blood medicines! If we can devour and refine these human ants, our strength will definitely increase significantly!"

Many powerful demons with innate abilities stared greedily at the passing martial artists, their eyes gleaming with greed.

Some demons, unable to contain their killing intent, began to ruthlessly kill human martial artists even before reaching the border of Qingzhou!
For a while.

Flesh and bone flew everywhere, and blood splattered all around.

The pungent smell of blood permeated the air, further fueling the killing desires of the many demons!

This scene was playing out almost simultaneously in various parts of Qingzhou.

As for the other powerful human martial artists, they all watched coldly from the sidelines, showing no intention of stepping forward to help.

The same goes for Lu Yuan.

After all, if these martial artists want to participate in the Human Emperor Trial, they must be prepared to perish at any time.

we can even say.

The battles before the opening of the Spirit Ruins Cave Heaven are also part of this trial!
If they don't even have the strength to reach the border of Qingzhou, then what are they doing participating in the Human Emperor Trial?
However, some of the powerful demons had gone mad with bloodlust and were even swinging their blades at innocent civilians in nearby cities.

The strongest person in this county is only at the third-grade Qi Gathering Realm, so how could they withstand the slaughter of a Primordial Great Demon?
Seeing that hundreds of thousands of civilians were about to be killed, Lu Yuan's eyes turned cold, and he leaped into a golden light.

With pure physical strength alone, he instantly smashed the five innate great demons into a cloud of blood mist!
Followed by.

Lu Yuan skillfully activated the Soul Refining Bead, absorbing and refining the five semi-transparent innate souls.

Saw this scene.

The martial artists and demons fighting nearby all paused, a chill running down their spines!
You should know that any innate great demon can occupy a mountain and become king, and even the local Demon Suppression Division is unwilling to be its enemy.

As a result, before these five innate great demons could even react, they were instantly killed by the person in front of them.

The whole process was smooth and effortless, just like slaughtering chickens and dogs!
He didn't even use any moves or martial arts techniques from beginning to end!

The more everyone present thought about it, the more terrified they became, and they no longer had any thoughts of fighting.

The battlefield, which was originally filled with deafening shouts of battle, was now deathly silent.

"Such terrifying physical strength! Judging from his methods, could he be a demonic martial artist?"

"Demonic martial artists are unpredictable and should never be provoked!"

"This person can instantly kill five innate great demons. Based on this achievement alone, he is worthy of being ranked on the Hidden Dragon List!"

This statement came out.

Everyone's expression changed drastically, and even the demons' eyes flashed with a hint of fear.

It was as if the three words "Hidden Dragon List" possessed some kind of magic for them, making everyone deeply wary of it!
"Just what is the background of this Hidden Dragon Ranking? How can it command such awe from so many innate great demons?"

Lu Yuan observed the changing expressions on everyone's faces and a sense of curiosity also arose in his heart.

It should be known that these innate great demons act arrogantly and recklessly, often treating human martial artists as food.

But when they heard about the Hidden Dragon List, they all looked as if they had seen a ghost, which shows just how important these three words are!
However, the Lingxu Cave Heaven is about to open.

Lu Yuan didn't linger and continued on his way.

at the same time.

In other parts of Qingzhou, there were also innate demons or demonic martial artists taking the opportunity to cause trouble.

Just as they were attempting to conquer human cities.

A mighty will suddenly descended from the sky, instantly suppressing and killing all the demons and martial artists who dared to wield their swords against innocent civilians!

This was none other than the most powerful figure in the Demon Suppression Division, the Prison Lord!
And his meaning was very clear.

He had no say in the conflict between martial arts practitioners and demons.

But those who indiscriminately kill innocent people must die!

And the other side.

Above the border of Qingzhou, the spatial vortex had disappeared, replaced by a massive portal as tall as the sky.

The surface of the door was pitted and covered with knife and sword marks.

But standing there, it seems to have existed since time immemorial, exuding a profound sense of vicissitudes accumulated over the years.

Behind that portal lies a magnificent and mysterious world.

When all the human martial artists saw that magnificent world, a sense of heaviness and solemnity involuntarily welled up in their hearts.

Because Lingxu Cave Heaven is not only the residence of the Human Emperor, but also the place where the human race inherits its heritage.

It has witnessed the changes of time and the rise and fall of the human race. It is the ancestral home and origin of all human martial arts practitioners!
"Is this the Spirit Ruins Grotto-Heaven?"

Lu Yuan's expression was serious, and he also felt a sense of resonance from the depths of his blood and soul.

But a noisy and arrogant voice shattered the solemnity.

"The Human Emperor is a thing of the past, and your human race is destined to become a vassal of our demon race!"

"Who dares to spout such nonsense here? Come out and fight if you dare!"

A powerful innate martial artist immediately roared in anger.

"You dare to challenge the dignity of my Ten Thousand Demon Cave? You're nothing but a carnivore!"

next second.

A phantom of a peacock, radiating three-colored divine light, crossed the horizon and appeared in the sky above the border of Qingzhou in the blink of an eye.

Then, in full view of everyone, the peacock opened its mouth wide and suddenly inhaled.

An irresistible and terrifying suction force came from within.

The innate martial artist and dozens of other martial artists standing nearby were swallowed by the peacock and became its food before they could even scream!

"Hiccup~"

The peacock let out a satisfied burp.

As the three-colored light dissipated, a handsome young man in purple robes with an extraordinary bearing appeared in everyone's sight.

"Is he the direct descendant of the Lord of the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, the Little Peacock King?"

All the martial artists present narrowed their eyes, immediately recognizing the person's origin.

The Peacock King was a renowned and powerful being of his time, and his self-created ultimate technique—the Five-Colored Divine Light—was incredibly powerful and indestructible.

Throughout the entire eighth-grade Manifestation Saint realm, few can rival it!

As for its son, the Little Peacock King, despite his cruel and bloodthirsty nature...

However, its talent and aptitude in cultivation are even more amazing than the Peacock King's!
In just a hundred years, he has become a powerful expert at the ninth level of the Innate Realm.

If it weren't for its immense ambition to condense a top-grade innate divine soul and constantly suppress its own realm...

Otherwise, with its talent, it would probably have become a sixth-grade Divine Sea Realm expert long ago!
"The Little Peacock King has cultivated his innate ultimate skill to the minor completion level, and can condense three-colored divine light. Its power is terrifying, comparable to the divine power of a Divine Sea Realm expert!"

"Not to mention, its demon bloodline is pure, giving it an incomparably powerful physical body from birth."

"I'm afraid only the top ten geniuses on the Hidden Dragon List can barely surpass it!"

They witnessed dozens of human martial artists being devoured right before their eyes.

Many people felt extremely heavy-hearted, with a sense of shared sorrow for the passing of their comrades.

After making inquiries everywhere, Lu Yuan finally learned the origin of the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

The world of demons and martial arts is vast and rich in resources, and countless geniuses emerge from all walks of life.

The Hidden Dragon Ranking is a list compiled by collecting the achievements and cultivation of today's unparalleled geniuses and listing them according to their strength and potential.

The main purpose of the Hidden Dragon Ranking is to visually showcase the potential of all the prodigies.

Therefore, only geniuses below the Divine Sea level are selected for this list.

The world is full of outstanding talents, as numerous as carp crossing a river.

The Hidden Dragon List only selects the top 100 most outstanding and extraordinary people in the world today!

This alone shows just how valuable this list is!
