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

Chapter 183 Fourth Lifetime: The Divine Travel Gu, a Sudden Change!
"Reporting to Senior Brother Lu."

"The sect leader is in a fit of anger and has not revealed any information."

"However, when I arrived, I overheard some inner disciples discussing that this matter seems to be related to demonic cultivators."

Xuanxin replied respectfully.

"Magic monk?"

Upon hearing these four words, Lu Yuan became interested.

According to the information he obtained, most of these demonic cultivators were exceptionally talented geniuses.

During their cultivation, they might suffer a qi deviation, suddenly realize the truth that they are being parasitized by the insectoid race, and thus betray their sect, spontaneously gather together, and take revenge on other sects and cultivators.

Lu Yuan was very curious.

How are these demonic cultivators able to utilize the power of parasites without being controlled by them?

After all, those demonic cultivators did not have the inheritance of Gu Dao and were completely ignorant of the methods of refining Gu worms, so they still belonged to the category of parasitic cultivation.

However, all the books and scriptures in the library are extremely taboo about demonic cultivators. It is likely that only after Lu Yuan personally comes into contact with those demonic cultivators will he be able to understand the answer to all of this.

Led by Xuanxin, he quickly arrived at the sect's main hall.

As soon as I stepped into the main hall, I felt the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

Meanwhile, Sect Leader Huiming and the other three peak masters had fury burning in their eyes and extremely gloomy faces.

"Disciple Lu Yuan greets the Sect Leader and the three Peak Masters."

Lu Yuan clasped his hands in a salute.

"Lu Yuan, you've arrived."

Master Huiming nodded, and his gloomy expression softened.

He then looked at the other three peak masters and said in a deep voice.

"Not long ago, our disciples went down the mountain for training, but were attacked by demonic cultivators, and more than a dozen talented disciples died on the spot."

"With the Qingling Secret Realm about to open, the younger generation of the Medicine Buddha Sect is leaderless. I plan to have Lu Yuan participate in this trial. I wonder what the three peak masters think?"

"Sect Leader, these demonic cultivators have gone too far, daring to attack my Medicine Buddha Sect disciples. Perhaps I should personally descend the mountain and kill a group of demonic cultivators to serve as a warning to others!"

The Vajra Peak Master had a fiery temper, and a chilling killing intent flickered in his tiger-like eyes.

Demonic cultivators are like a malignant tumor in the cultivation world, impossible to eradicate completely.

Moreover, they are ruthless and will massacre sect disciples whenever they have the chance, making them a major threat to various forces and sects!
"The evil cultivators of the demonic path are cunning and wicked, and they do all sorts of evil. Now that the Azure Spirit Secret Realm is about to open, it is not advisable to act rashly for the time being."

"Isn't it a bit too risky to just let Lu Yuan participate in this trial?"

After pondering for a moment, the Bodhi Peak Master decided that it was best to proceed with caution.

The Medicine Buddha School has a long history and profound cultural heritage.

Every year, hundreds or even thousands of disciples are recruited to replenish the sect with fresh blood.

Even if all the genius disciples of this generation died, they could still accept it.

But if anything were to happen to Lu Yuan, the entire Medicine Buddha Sect would suffer a severe blow, completely burying any hope of its rise!

Moreover, the laws of the Azure Spirit Secret Realm are incomplete and the order is disordered, making it easier for those with exceptional talent to go astray and fall into demonic possession.

If the events of the Shepherd Spirit Sect were to repeat themselves, the consequences would be unimaginable!

"The matter is urgent, and we have no time left." Master Huiming shook his head.

"The Azure Spirit Secret Realm is not only of great significance to other disciples, but also to the reputation and prestige of our Medicine Buddha Sect. Countless forces throughout the Southern Region are paying attention to this trial."

"Some even gossips will rank the trial results to measure the strength of each sect."

"If my Medicine Buddha Sect ranks low, the Northern Cold Sect will definitely seize this opportunity to make a big fuss."

Master Huiming analyzed it carefully.

As one of the five top powers in the Southern Region, the Medicine Buddha Sect directly controls several secular dynasties, not to mention countless other affiliated sects and factions.

But precisely because of this, the Medicine Buddha Sect has made many enemies and has clashed with many other sects.

If other hostile forces discover that the Medicine Buddha Sect's strength has declined, it will not be as simple as losing a group of talented disciples.

"In this trial of the Azure Spirit Secret Realm, our Medicine Buddha Sect absolutely cannot back down. We must not only avoid falling behind, but also strive to be the best!"

Master Huiming resolutely cut off the railway.

"Lu Yuan, what do you think?" the peak master of Lingyao Peak asked.

"The rise and fall of a sect is the responsibility of every citizen."

"This disciple is willing to go through fire and water for the sect, even unto death!"

Lu Yuan faced death without fear and spoke with righteous indignation.

But in fact.

Whether it's fragments of the laws of the Azure Spirit Secret Realm or other rare treasures of heaven and earth, they are all excellent materials for refining Gu.

Lu Yuan was worried about not being able to find suitable rare and precious materials to upgrade his second-stage innate spiritual gu to the third stage, but unexpectedly, the Medicine Buddha Sect delivered the opportunity to his doorstep.

Moreover, according to Lu Yuan's guess, the Azure Spirit Secret Realm is a world of its own, and the laws here have not yet been completely distorted. Therefore, it is easier for parasitic cultivators to discover the truth of parasitic cultivation when they enter it.

This also means.

There may still be some ancient Gu Dao (a type of poison) traditions existing in this place!
However, Master Huiming and the others were completely unaware of Lu Yuan's thoughts.

When they heard these words, even with their mature and steady nature, they couldn't help but feel moved.

What a wonderful boy!

If he grows up, he will surely become the pillar of the Medicine Buddha Sect.

"Good, good, good. As expected of the promising young talent I have always admired, he has such awareness."

"Lu Yuan, rest assured, I will personally lead the team for this Qingling Secret Realm trial, and I guarantee that no one will be able to harm you in the slightest."

Master Huiming patted his chest and assured him on the spot.

"Thank you, Sect Leader." Lu Yuan bowed and expressed his gratitude.

As for the other three peak masters, they also brought out a large number of rare and precious items to provide for Lu Yuan's cultivation needs.

After agreeing on the itinerary, Lu Yuan bid farewell to Sect Leader Huiming and the three peak masters, and returned to his cave dwelling.

The Azure Spirit Secret Realm is about to open, and they will be setting off soon.

This trial will gather the top geniuses and prodigies from the entire Southern Region, so you can imagine how fierce the competition will be.

Even Lu Yuan wasn't entirely confident.

Therefore, he must hurry and refine several types of Gu worms to enhance his combat power before setting off.

"I have the Gu worms that can enhance spiritual energy and power. What I'm currently lacking is a movement technique and a few offensive methods."

Lu Yuan closed his eyes and began to recall the secret techniques he had come into contact with.

With his extraordinary talent for comprehension, he can remember everything he sees and store all information and secret techniques in his mind, making him a veritable walking library of scriptures.

After searching for more than half an hour, they finally settled on a movement technique.

The magic of movement!
If one can master the superior movement technique of the Medicine Buddha Sect, one can travel a million miles a day. Even at the Foundation Establishment stage, one can possess a speed comparable to a peak Core Formation expert!

Especially after Lu Yuan, with his extraordinary comprehension, deduced and improved this method into a Gu formula, it could greatly enhance the potential of this technique. In addition...

Lu Yuan then selected several powerful and easy-to-decipher secret techniques, and then began to refine new spirit gu.

The next three days.

Lu Yuan hadn't eaten or drunk a drop of water and hadn't closed his eyes, devoting all his time and energy to refining Gu.

However, with his current strength at the peak of Foundation Establishment, even if he doesn't sleep for ten days or half a month, it won't have any effect.

But all the effort was worthwhile.

Looking at the four orbs of light floating in front of him, Lu Yuan finally managed a smile on his tired face.

Due to the distortion of the Heavenly Dao, all cultivation methods and secret techniques in this world are breeding manuals tailor-made for the parasite race.

While ordinary parasitic cultivators can gain various powerful abilities by practicing these secret techniques, they will also hasten their own death.

However, Lu Yuan took a different approach, relying on his extraordinary comprehension to deduce a method of refining Gu that suited him from these cultivation manuals.

Not only does it have no side effects, but it is even slightly more powerful!
The four orbs of light in front of Lu Yuan were of different colors, each representing a different type of spirit Gu.

Second-stage Divine Speed ​​Gu, Second-stage Clone Gu, Second-stage Blood Blade Gu, and Third-stage Myriad Curses Soul Devouring Gu!

If we add the Qi-gathering Gu, Vajra Gu, and Innate Spirit Gu that Lu Yuan refined before, he can defeat even a Core Formation cultivator!
Lu Yuan stored all the spirit Gu in his dantian, rinsed it briefly, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Although Foundation Establishment cultivators can go without food and drink, he had exhausted too much mental energy while refining the Gu, and desperately needed a good rest.

Two days later.

Following the information sent by Sect Leader Huiming, Lu Yuan headed to the sect square to assemble.

It was just before dawn, but a number of inner disciples had already gathered in the square.

The entire Medicine Buddha Sect has more than 80,000 disciples, including several thousand inner disciples, but each sect only has one hundred slots for the Azure Spirit Secret Realm.

Therefore, those who can participate in this trial are all outstanding individuals and the pride of heaven.

However, Lu Yuan glanced over and found that all the disciples were under thirty years old, and most of them had the strength of the late Foundation Establishment stage.

In addition, there were more than a dozen people with powerful auras, clearly at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage!

The other disciples clustered around these dozen or so people, forming a dozen or so small circles.

"The Medicine Buddha Sect is indeed deeply rooted. Even though it was attacked by demonic cultivators and lost a number of its most outstanding talents, it was still able to gather a large number of geniuses in a short period of time."

Lu Yuan remarked with considerable emotion.

These disciples are young, yet they are already Foundation Establishment cultivators.

If you randomly pick one of them and put him in the outside world, other minor sects would treat him like a treasure and spare no expense to cultivate him.

However, in Lu Yuan's eyes, these disciples were all monsters with mutated flesh and blood, their bodies covered with insects.

After all, those who are said to have spiritual roots are actually just the most suitable breeding ground for the insect race to parasitize and reproduce.

From a certain perspective.

The better one's talent and the faster one's cultivation speed, the closer one will be to death.

As soon as Lu Yuan appeared in the sect square, disciples recognized him and bowed to him.

"Disciple greets Senior Brother Lu."

Although Lu Yuan is only eight years old and rarely goes out, he is rarely seen by other disciples.

However, as the sect leader and the personal disciple of the three peak masters, his status in the Medicine Buddha Sect can be described as extremely revered.

Let alone these inner disciples, even a Core Formation elder like Master Pu Xuan would have to treat Lu Yuan with the utmost respect now.

Lu Yuan greeted the other disciples, then found a place to wait for Headmaster Huiming.

Several young female disciples with delicate features and good looks were also giving Lu Yuan flirtatious glances, trying to attract his attention.

But in front of Lu Yuan, a deformed monster covered in rotting flesh and worms was frantically flirting with him, and the feeling was indescribably disgusting.

Talk about it.

Since being reborn into this world, Lu Yuan has completely lost all worldly desires.

It didn't take long.

Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, Sect Leader Huiming finally appeared in the sect square.

Without a word, he waved his sleeve, and a spirit boat over a hundred feet long appeared out of thin air in mid-air.

This spirit boat has an ancient and simple design, with many arrays and Dao patterns imprinted on its surface. In particular, there is a huge dragon head placed at the front of the spirit boat.

As soon as it appeared, an extremely powerful sense of oppression swept over them, making it difficult for everyone to breathe!
"Is this the sect leader's dragon boat?"

"It is said that this boat was made from the remains of a Nascent Soul stage dragon. It is not only a rare flying magic weapon, but also has extremely amazing defensive power, enough to withstand the attacks of several Nascent Soul stage experts."

The other disciples, upon seeing the boat, couldn't help but gasp in astonishment, their spirits soaring.

This is a magic weapon belonging to a Nascent Soul stage expert.

Being able to ride a dragon boat once is something they can brag about for a lifetime!
"Alright, the Azure Spirit Secret Realm is far away. All disciples, board the ship immediately and do not waste any more time."

Master Huiming gave a stern rebuke.

All the disciples immediately shrank back and obediently boarded the dragon boat.

Then the spirit boat slowly rose into the air, transforming into a streak of light that shot into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it was far away from the Medicine Buddha Sect.

The Panlong Boat is a Nascent Soul level magic weapon, and its speed is so fast that it is almost impossible for the naked eye to detect it.

Before the disciples could react, a fierce gust of wind swept in, swaying them from side to side and nearly causing them to fall off the boat.

Even the dozen or so Foundation Establishment Perfection disciples swayed and some couldn't stand steadily.

Throughout the entire spirit ship, only Sect Leader Huiming and Lu Yuan remained unmoved and composed.

Upon seeing this, Master Huiming couldn't help but shake his head inwardly.

As a Nascent Soul magic weapon, the Panlong Boat is naturally protected by a magic array.

The reason the gale was so fierce was actually intentional; he wanted to test the strength of these disciples, but the result was disappointing.

"If it weren't for those demonic and evil cultivators, how could my Medicine Buddha Sect have fallen into such a state?"

"Fortunately, Lu Yuan was also there for this trial, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Master Huiming looked at Lu Yuan, and a glimmer of hope resurfaced in his heart.

Lu Yuan began practicing Qi cultivation at the age of two and establishing his foundation at the age of three. His talent and aptitude were even more extraordinary than Ye Chen of the Northern Cold Sect.

With his talent and strength, he will definitely shine in this trial, allowing the Medicine Buddha Sect to turn the tide!
Followed by.

With a hand seal, Master Huiming caused the array patterns on the surface of the Panlong Boat to emit a faint light, forming an invisible barrier that enveloped the entire spirit boat.

All the gales vanished instantly.

Meanwhile, Master Huiming himself sat cross-legged in front of the spirit boat, conserving his energy.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan also found a place to rest.

After all, the Medicine Buddha Sect is hundreds of millions of miles away from the Azure Spirit Secret Realm. Even at the speed of the Panlong Boat, it would take one or two days to travel there!
