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

"Is it?"

Despite the olive branch extended by the young man in white, Lu Yuan remained unmoved.

Perhaps in the eyes of other cultivators, this is an incredible opportunity.

Many people will spare no effort to seize this opportunity to defy fate.

But for Lu Yuan...

He always does things according to his own will and is used to being alone. How could he possibly be someone else's slave?

Moreover, the Qingyun Sect has provided him with considerable assistance.

If he were to kill Li Shouzhuo and the others simply because of a few words from the young man in white, what difference would he make from a beast?
"You may not know this, but Young Master Wei Jun comes from a prestigious family and is highly favored by the clan's most respected member."

"Furthermore, the young master is exceptionally talented and is destined to achieve the supreme position in the future. Being able to follow him is an honor that countless people would rather die for."

The young man in white spoke calmly, his tone carrying an undisguised sense of superiority.

"So what? No matter how eloquently you speak, you're still just someone's servant."

Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, the young man in white seemed to have been struck where it hurt, and his face immediately turned extremely gloomy.

"Since you're so determined to die, then I'll send you on your way!"

After being rejected multiple times, a chilling murderous intent flashed in the white-clad youth's eyes, and he gave up on the idea of ​​recruiting Lu Yuan.

next moment.

His thoughts moved slightly.

The once cloudless sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, and a strong wind picked up.

The large spiritual handprint that had been immobilized by the talisman instantly crumbled, turning into wisps of green smoke.

Then they gathered together in mid-air, forming a thick sea of ​​clouds.

All of a sudden.

The wind howled and thunder roared.

Deep within the sea of ​​clouds, streaks of purple lightning appeared, causing all living beings within a radius of a hundred miles to feel an indescribable sense of unease!
A single thought can alter the course of the heavens.

This is the supreme method of the Heavenly Mandate!

Followed by.

Under the control of the young man in white.

Large swaths of blazing lightning emerged from the depths of the sea of ​​clouds, eventually coalescing into a thunderous spear that thrust straight toward Lu Yuan!

"Crack!"

Wherever the spear passed, even the void shattered, as if the heavens were sending down a calamity to obliterate all those who defied them!
It can be said.

The power of this attack was terrifying beyond imagination.

If they were to confront it head-on, even a powerful being in the late stages of the Heavenly Mandate would suffer severe injuries!
"Is this the lightning magic of the Divine Fire Sect?"

Li Shouzhou's expression changed drastically, and his heart sank to the bottom.

The Divine Fire Sect is founded on the principles of fire, but it also has some involvement in other Taoist practices.

Moreover, they have stood for hundreds of thousands of years, possessing extremely profound foundations. Any cultivation technique they could casually take out from the Scripture Pavilion would be revered as an unparalleled skill by outside cultivators.

The lightning magic used by the white-robed youth was not only fierce and deadly, but it could also manipulate the power of heaven and earth, causing the magic to surge in power, which was far beyond the ability of ordinary powerful beings to withstand!

However, Lu Yuan appeared calm and composed in the face of this devastating attack.

He has experienced countless heavenly tribulations, so how could he be frightened by mere thunder magic?
"Having the appearance of a tribulation lightning strikes without the actual power of the tribulation lightning strikes is nothing but a bluff."

Instead of advancing, Lu Yuan retreated, and instead took the initiative to meet the thunderous spear.

at the same time.

His blood and energy were restored, and every inch of his flesh and blood radiated a golden divine light.

This makes him look like an ancient god-king clad in golden armor, his aura reaching its peak!

"Boom!"

The thunderous spear descended from the sky and appeared in front of Lu Yuan almost instantly.

But he was not afraid at all. He simply raised his hand and threw a punch, trying to use his physical strength to withstand the thunder!

"The mantis is trying to block the car, but he is overestimating his own ability."

Upon seeing this, the young man in white revealed a hint of disdain and sarcasm.

He cultivated thunder magic diligently for decades, and once even personally triggered heavenly thunder to temper his body in order to comprehend the true power of thunder tribulation.

Therefore.

He understood better than other cultivators just how terrifying the power of the lightning tribulation truly was.

This is a power born purely for killing and destruction; in terms of destructive power, it even surpasses that of sword cultivators.

Lu Yuan, a mere early-stage Heavenly Mandate expert, attempted to withstand the tribulation lightning with his physical strength alone; this was tantamount to courting death!

However, it was not what the young man in white had imagined.

When Lu Yuan punched the thunderous spear, the scene he had expected—Lu Yuan being pierced through—did not occur.

On the contrary, the seemingly indestructible Thunder Spear was now severely damaged, with cracks appearing on its surface.

Finally, it exploded with a bang, and was smashed to pieces by Lu Yuan's punch!

"To withstand a lightning tribulation with bare hands? How is that possible?"

The mockery and sneer on the young man's face vanished instantly, replaced by undisguised shock and disbelief.

You must know that he is a powerful expert in the late stage of the Heavenly Mandate realm!
Putting aside other factors, in terms of cultivation alone, he is two minor realms higher than Lu Yuan.

The lightning technique he cultivated was also a superior technique within the Divine Fire Sect, far more profound than the traditions of a small sect like the Azure Cloud Sect.

Moreover, since his birth, the opponents and enemies he has encountered have usually been geniuses of the same level.

During this period, he went through countless life-and-death trials, and his combat experience was far beyond that of ordinary cultivators.

Despite having advantages in cultivation level, techniques, and combat experience, he was ultimately inferior to Lu Yuan, a mere ant at the early stage of the Heavenly Fate Realm.
"kill!"

Without hesitation, Lu Yuan seized the moment when the young man in white was shaken and immediately lunged forward to engage him in a fierce battle.

His blood was boiling, and five-colored divine flames surrounded his body. With every move he made, he could unleash unimaginable and terrifying power.

"boom!"

Lu Yuan struck out with a palm.

Before his hand even landed, the mountain behind the young man in white collapsed in sections, blasted into dust from a distance.

As for the young man in white, he felt a chill run down his spine and sensed a strong sense of crisis.

"Damn it! How come his blood and energy are so abundant?"

He hastily raised his hand to defend himself, but the more he fought, the more frightened he became. In the end, a chill ran through his body, and a thought of retreat even sprouted in his mind.

Because in his perception.

Even though Lu Yuan's cultivation level was not as high as his own, his magical power was as vast as the sea, and even stronger than his own.

Furthermore, Lu Yuan's combat experience and grasp of timing are extremely sophisticated and precise.

Once they gained the upper hand, their offensive became a fierce storm, overwhelming the young man in white and making it difficult for him to unleash his full fighting power.

What upset the young man in white the most was...

Lu Yuan possessed an unparalleled physique, his physical abilities were simply beyond comprehension.

Each time the young man in white threw a powerful blow, it was like a tickle to Lu Yuan, causing absolutely no harm.

On the contrary, Lu Yuan's single arm swing was enough to make the white-robed youth's blood surge and his internal organs ache. Before long, the white-robed youth's arm went numb, his muscles tore, and blood dripped from his fingertips!

"This is the body-refining method of the Great Sun Zen sect? You have actually cultivated a sixteen-foot golden body?"

The young man in white stared wide-eyed, unable to help but exclaim in surprise, his eyes revealing fear for the first time.

Like the Shinhwa sect, the Dainichi Zen sect is one of the immortal traditions of our time.

The Divine Fire Cult controls flames and takes the Divine Fire of Purification as the foundation of its cult.

The Great Sun Zen sect is known for its unparalleled physique and is famous for its body training. It is said that it can tear the sky apart with its bare hands with just its two palms!
Lu Yuan's body surface shimmered with a golden light, exuding an aura of indestructibility.

This is clearly a symbol of a sixteen-foot-tall golden statue!
"A golden body sixteen feet tall can fight against a half-step Void Dao cultivator. I never thought that such a monstrous talent as you would exist in a remote and impoverished place like the Great Li Dynasty!"

The young man in white looked horrified, a chill creeping into his heart.

Even within the Divine Fire Sect, the Void Dao Saint Master is a powerful figure whose mere stomp of his foot can cause an earthquake.

Beings of this caliber possess the power of life and death, and can command billions of living beings.

Even the monarch of a country or the emperor of a dynasty must kneel and prostrate themselves at their feet!
If Lu Yuan truly cultivates the sixteen-foot golden body, it means that his talent is comparable to that of Young Master Wei Jun, and his future achievements may not even be inferior to Wei Jun's.

"wrong……"

The young man in white suddenly paused, as if he had realized something.

"Young Master Wei Jun comes from a supreme family. From a young age, he was able to consume countless rare and precious herbs. Moreover, the Supreme Master Mingdao taught him the Dao and refined his innate qualities."

"But this person is just a disciple of a lower sect, and probably hasn't even heard of the names of many rare and precious treasures."

"But under these circumstances, he was still able to cultivate a sixteen-foot golden body. Doesn't that mean his talent is even greater than that of Young Master Wei Jun?"

Realizing this, the white-robed youth's pupils constricted, and he finally realized just how monstrous the young man before him truly was!
"A sixteen-foot-tall golden body? I'm not one yet."

Lu Yuan said frankly.

He had only used the Golden Body Liquid to cultivate the Vajra Body.

Although his physical body underwent another transformation upon entering the Heavenly Fate Realm, and his physical strength increased significantly, it still lagged far behind the sixteen-foot golden body of the Great Sun Zen Sect.

But even so.

Lu Yuan was also able to easily suppress the white-clad youth with his physical strength.

Moreover, the young man in white was unaware that Lu Yuan's greatest reliance was not his physical body, but the cultivation experience he had accumulated through many reincarnations, as well as the sacred artifact he had recently forged!
"Even the late stage of the Heavenly Mandate is nothing more than this; it's not worth me using the Sword Nourishing Gourd and the Blood-Slaying Heavenly Blade."

Lu Yuan shook his head, seemingly unsatisfied and somewhat listless.

But think about it.

Although the young man in white comes from the Immortal Dao lineage, if he is truly exceptionally talented, why would he be willing to become someone else's follower?
Moreover, Lu Yuan has cultivation experience from multiple lifetimes, so dealing with a servant under a prodigy is a piece of cake for him.

The outcome of the battle is now a foregone conclusion.

Faced with overwhelming power, even though the young man in white used every trick in the book, he was forced to retreat step by step and was soon driven into a desperate situation.

Knowing he was no match for Lu Yuan, he planned to fight to the death to break through the encirclement, but Lu Yuan was prepared for this and would not let him leave easily.
"Stop! I am a follower of Young Master Wei Jun. Are you really determined to fight to the death with my Divine Fire Sect with such ruthlessness?"

The white-clad youth, his hair disheveled, coughed up blood repeatedly after being beaten by Lu Yuan, and once again threatened him with bluster but no substance.

"What kind of bullshit young master are you? Even if the Void Dao Saint Master of your Divine Fire Sect came today, he couldn't save you!"

Lu Yuan snorted coldly, and his attacks became even more ferocious.

"What an arrogant brat! I will repay this debt a hundredfold in the future!"

Before the young man in white could finish speaking, he suddenly exploded into a cloud of blood mist with a bang.

at the same time.

A ball of flame suddenly shot out from the blood mist, enveloping the white-robed youth's soul, and transformed into a streak of light, escaping into the distance.

The speed of the escape light was extremely fast, appearing almost instantly a thousand miles away, making it difficult for anyone to react.

This is a life-saving escape technique of the Divine Fire Sect, which can burn the physical body and unleash a speed far exceeding one's own limits in a short period of time.

With his late-stage Destiny Realm cultivation, once activated, even a half-step Void Realm expert would be unable to catch up.

However, the young man in white had just escaped the battlefield and hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief when he suddenly felt a terrifying aura coming from behind him.

He instinctively turned around and was immediately terrified.

Suddenly, a pair of wings appeared behind Lu Yuan, their surface shrouded in the power of wind and thunder.

With just a slight tremor, it could travel a thousand miles in an instant, appearing in front of the white-robed youth before it even arrived!

Then, with a slight thought, Lu Yuan sent out a five-colored lotus flower that instantly enveloped the white-robed youth's soul.

The lotus petals slowly unfolded, emitting shimmering ethereal light.

The white-robed youth felt an irresistible force pulling him in, and before he could even scream, he was sucked into the five-colored lotus and completely suppressed!

Just as Lu Yuan was about to retract the Five-Colored Lotus, his body suddenly stiffened, his gaze became incredibly sharp, and he instantly turned to look.

Not far from him, several young cultivators dressed in fine clothes had appeared out of nowhere.

These men were all dashing and had an extraordinary air about them; they clearly came from powerful forces.

The burly man with a bushy beard, carrying a heavy giant sword on his back, exuded an aura as deep and unfathomable as the ocean; he was none other than a Void Dao Saint Lord!
"The Holy Lord of the Void Path is indeed not to be underestimated."

Lu Yuan's eyes flickered, and a sense of lingering fear arose in his heart.

He was so focused on suppressing the young man in white that he relaxed his vigilance towards the outside world.

As a result, the burly man with the bushy beard and his group approached within a hundred feet without his knowledge.

If they were to launch a sudden attack, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Young friend, there is no need to panic. I am Mo Shan, from the Heavenly Sword Pavilion. I just happened to be passing by."

"However, judging from your decisive and ruthless actions, and your extraordinary strength, could you perhaps be a disciple of some Zen master?"

The burly man with the bushy beard laughed heartily and asked with some curiosity.

"Lu only obtained two Zen Buddhist secrets by chance, and had no connection with the Zen Buddhist elders."

Lu Yuan answered calmly, but his body was tense, and he was on high alert at all times.

If the group makes any unusual moves, he will immediately unleash the Bloodthirsty Heavenly Blade.

After all, the person in front of him was a genuine Void Dao Saint Lord.

If he were to be careless in the slightest, he could lose his life.

"I see. We have important matters to attend to, so we won't bother you any longer."

The burly man with the bushy beard smiled, as if he could see Lu Yuan's worries, and immediately left the place with several young prodigies behind him.

Watching them leave, Lu Yuan only breathed a sigh of relief when the Mo Shan group had disappeared from sight.

have to say.

No one who can become a Void Dao Saint Master is an easy person.

Just like that burly man with a bushy beard, who seemed to be only one realm higher than the young man in white, the difference in their strength was like heaven and earth.

The other party was just standing there, without making a move, yet Lu Yuan could feel an indescribable sense of powerful pressure!
"The Void Dao Saint Lord is indeed terrifying. If I were to engage in a life-or-death battle with such an existence, even if I used every means at my disposal, I would probably only have a 30% chance of winning."

Lu Yuan's expression was solemn as he pondered to himself.

As you progress through cultivation, the gap between each realm will only widen.

Just like when he was in the Soul Palace Realm, he could easily fight opponents of higher levels.

However, even with his extensive cultivation experience across lifetimes, reaching the Heavenly Fate Realm would be incredibly difficult for him to kill a Void Dao Saint Lord, who was at a higher level.

A single misstep could lead to certain death! (End of Chapter)
