I'm in the world of cultivation, and I get a system for becoming a wealthy urban tycoon?

Lu Yang has been enjoying his time on the flying boat quite comfortably these days.

During the day, Lu Yang would go for a run, read books, and study the Wood Dao Kung Fu.

In the evenings, I meditate and cultivate to improve my spiritual level.

He currently has more than ten bottles of top-grade Huanglong Dan.

These were all painstakingly refined by Lin Ying over this period of time.

Knowing that he was leaving the sect, Lin Ying gave all the Yellow Dragon Pills she had refined to Lu Yang, keeping none for herself.

According to Lin Ying, she could start refining pills at any time within the sect.

After Lu Yang left the sect, it became quite troublesome for him to purchase pills.

He used top-grade Yellow Dragon Pills to cultivate every day.

With the help of the level 4 Golden Rainbow Sword Manual, his cultivation level improved almost every day.

Of course, besides reading books and studying cultivation techniques during the day, Lu Yang also discussed Dao with Mu Yunxue.

These past few days, Lu Yang and Mu Yunxue's discussions and conversations have mostly been like this.

Mu Yunxue: "Junior Brother Lu, shall we discuss Dao this afternoon?"

Lu Yang: "Okay."

Mu Yunxue: "Discussing the Dao?"

Lu Yang: "Let me go for a run."

Mu Yunxue: "A strange hobby, what's the meaning of running?"

Lu Yang: "To improve physical fitness, cultivate character, and incidentally train the body."

Mu Yunxue tilted her head slightly, a hint of confusion appearing on her exquisitely beautiful face: "?"

She didn't even dwell on the relationship between running and physical training, and continued to ask, "Sharing the Dao after running?"

Lu Yang: "Okay."

Mu Yunxue: "I'll run with you."

Lu Yang: "Okay."

Mu Yunxue: "On?"

Lu Yang: "Reading a book."

Mu Yunxue: "Let's watch it together, and then we'll discuss it."

Lu Yang: "Okay."

Mu Yunxue: "Now?"

Lu Yang: "Let's get this going, all night long!"

Mu Yunxue's eyes lit up: "Mmm!"

After these few days of discussions, Mu Yunxue's favorability rating increased by 4 points, reaching 65 points.

It has to be said that Mu Yunxue's personality is still the same as he had sensed before, colder than the average person.

After so many days of discussion, my points have only increased by 4, which is slower than Su Jinxuan's increase.

However, Lu Yang's understanding of the Dao of Metal has improved further during these past few days of discussions.

He planned to find an opportunity to use the power of money once again.

At that time, he will gain a lot of insights into the Way of Gold and the Way of the Sword.

The only thing that made Lu Yang feel a little depressed was that Shi Qing and Ying Ying were not around, so the dual cultivation was naturally out of the question.

Of course, if Nan Yue were here, they could spend every day together and maybe they would naturally start cultivating together?

In the quiet of the night, I always find myself thinking about my few female friends.

On this day, Lu Yang was sitting in his study, flipping through the Green Wood Longevity Technique.

Mu Yunxue sat down next to him, quietly flipping through a volume of the Golden Dao Classics.

Now, whenever she seeks him out to discuss philosophy, she waits patiently by his side if he's busy.

She neither urged him nor left, but sat there quietly, occasionally glancing at him as if to make sure he showed no signs of running away, before continuing to read her book.

Outside the window, clouds churned, and golden sunlight pierced through the gaps, casting dappled shadows on the pages of the book.

The rustling of turning pages and the low hum of the distant flying boat formation blended together, making the study exceptionally quiet.

With Lu Yang's extraordinary comprehension and the blessing of the Enlightenment Tea, he managed to comprehend the Azure Wood Transformation Technique to perfection in just two days.

Then he spent several thousand more experience points to upgrade the Green Wood Transformation Technique to the maximum level.

After that, Lu Yang began to comprehend the Azure Wood Longevity Technique. It must be said that as a mid-grade Earth-rank technique, the Azure Wood Longevity Technique is quite profound.

Of course, part of the reason is that Lu Yang only learned one wood-based martial art, and his foundation in wood-based martial arts is not solid enough.

It took him more than two hours to master the basics of this technique.

After that, Lu Yang didn't rush to improve using cultivation techniques and experience, but instead relied on his own comprehension.

With his current level of comprehension, the first few levels are relatively easy to grasp, so there's no need to waste cultivation experience.

Just then, a hoarse shout, imbued with spiritual energy, suddenly came from outside the flying boat, piercing through the clouds and the ship's side, and entering the study directly.

"Senior aboard the flying boat, Ding Ran of the Ding family requests an audience and is willing to offer you a priceless treasure!"

Lu Yang looked up and glanced out the window.

The thick clouds shimmered with a silvery glow under the sunlight, and the array patterns on the side of the flying boat appeared and disappeared in the mist.

A figure could be seen walking on a sword in the distance.

The man's robes were torn in many places and stained with blood. Several deep wounds, revealing bone, ran across his chest and abdomen. Although they had been simply bandaged, fresh blood was still seeping out.

His face was frighteningly pale, his lips were chapped, his hair was disheveled and stuck to his forehead, and he looked extremely disheveled and unsteady.

Lu Yang raised an eyebrow slightly, somewhat surprised: "Presenting a treasure?"

Mu Yunxue's gaze swept over the wounded youth behind her. Not far behind him, in the clouds, several streaks of light were faintly visible, approaching at an extremely fast speed.

She immediately understood that this person had probably been hunted for a long time and had nowhere else to turn, which was why he offered up his treasure to save his life.

However, Mu Yunxue was by nature aloof and indifferent, and never paid much attention to people who were not related to her.

Therefore, she only glanced at it briefly before looking away without saying a word.

Just then, the light from afar approached the young man, and the fluctuations in spiritual energy suddenly intensified.

Clearly, the cultivators represented by those streaks of light intended to attack the young man.

Lu Yang glanced at the distant streak of light, raised an eyebrow slightly, and a smile of interest appeared on his face: "Interesting... Senior Sister Mu, we've been cooped up on the flying boat for so many days, let's go out and have some fun."

Mu Yunxue nodded silently: "Okay."

Lu Yang called softly, "Wang Da, don't let those people kill him."

A respectful and calm reply came from the void: "Yes, young master."

Lu Yang closed the book and stood up from his chair.

Mu Yunxue also stood up, and the two left the study one after the other, walking slowly down the white jade staircase.

…………

In the sky.

Ding Ran noticed the five auras rapidly approaching from behind, and his expression changed drastically.

Especially when he felt the intense fluctuations of spiritual energy surging from those few auras, he unconsciously clenched his fists, his fingertips almost digging into his palms, and a look of despair appeared in his heart.

Could it be... that the important figure on the flying ship was completely uninterested in the treasure?

What to do?!

Meanwhile, Deng Qi and his companions behind him no longer cared whether they would offend the owner of the flying boat.

After all, the Nine Heavens Golden-Winged Roc Egg was something that Senior Brother Chen Chuanmo personally specified he wanted to obtain!

If they don't get it, they'll be in big trouble!

Everyone on Mount Wan Shou knew about that core disciple's temper.

They thought that as long as they didn't attack the flying boat, but instead took Ding Ran away first and then brought up the name of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, they shouldn't really anger the important figures on the flying boat.

After all, this is the person they are hunting down, so it's not right for outsiders to meddle.

So they no longer hesitated and prepared to strike a fatal blow.

The four disciples of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain simultaneously released their natal spirit beasts.

A jet-black Ironwing Eagle, a Wind-Treading Leopard covered in blue scales, an Ice-Patterned Python that exhaled icy mist from its mouth, and a massive Stone-Armored Bear with exposed fangs.

The four spirit beasts each occupied a corner, their fierce gazes fixed on Ding Ran.

Deng Qixiu's method is not the way of beast taming, so he has no spirit beasts to command. However, the spiritual energy surging around his body as he forms hand seals is not particularly refined.

After all, the scions of minor aristocratic families lack good cultivation techniques and spells, so their combat strength is quite limited.

Five humans and four beasts simultaneously unleashed their strongest spells.

Suddenly, all sorts of colorful lights burst into the sky.

With a flap of its wings, the Iron-Winged Eagle unleashed countless jet-black wind blades; the Wind-Treading Leopard blurred into a blur, its claws whistling as they tore through the air; the Ice-Patterned Python spewed out a stream of icy blue frost, freezing even the clouds in its wake; the Stone-Armored Bear roared as it unleashed a massive, mountain-like, earthen-yellow fist attack…

A series of spells converged into a destructive torrent, crashing down upon Ding Ran!

Ding Ran's expression changed drastically, and he was about to try his best to dodge.

Just then, a wisp of red flame silently flashed past above those several fierce streaks of light.

The next moment, the spells vanished into thin air.

It was as if it had been instantly vaporized by some terrifying flame.

Wind blades, claw shadows, cold currents, fist energy, sword light... they all vanished without warning, as if gently wiped away by an invisible hand, leaving not a trace.

It was as if they had never existed.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, without even a fluctuation of spiritual energy.

This left everyone staring wide-eyed and frozen in place.

Deng Qi and the others felt their scalps tingle, a chill ran from their spines straight to the top of their heads, and their blood seemed to freeze.

Their spells...were directly burned?

The whole process was so fast that they didn't even have time to react. What's even more terrifying is that... not even the slightest ripple of spiritual energy was stirred up!

What kind of tactic is this?!

Although they were only at the Foundation Establishment stage, the combined efforts of five people and four beasts would be impossible even for a Golden Core stage cultivator to use such methods to simultaneously erase their magical attacks, let alone do so effortlessly and without leaving a trace!

This terrifying ability is completely beyond their comprehension!

Only one thought remained in their minds:

The important figures on this airship... seem to be far more terrifying than they imagined?

Thinking about this, their hearts sank completely.

Compared to the extreme fear of Deng Qi and the others, Ding Ran was overjoyed.

He felt as if he had just escaped death, his back already soaked in cold sweat, but at this moment a sense of relief at surviving a disaster welled up in his heart.

With such a powerful figure willing to intervene, his life should be saved, right?

Even if it meant exchanging the Nine Heavens Golden-Winged Roc Egg for the protection of this important figure, it would be worth it!

Just then, Wang Da's figure appeared silently at the edge of the airship, as if he had always been there.

Ding Ran was the first to see Wang Da. Despite the excruciating pain throughout his body, he quickly steadied himself, respectfully clasped his hands in greeting, and bowed deeply, his voice trembling but sincere: "Ding Ran greets Senior!"

Deng Qi and the others behind him only then noticed Wang Da's appearance, and their hearts skipped a beat again.

They didn't even realize how this seemingly ordinary middle-aged man had appeared!

The four cultivators from Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain instinctively reached out to bow and offer their apologies.

However, one of them spoke up even faster than the others.

Deng Qi stepped forward, a simple and honest smile on his face, and cupped his hands, saying, "Senior, this person is someone the core disciples of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain specifically requested. We have been hunting him for a long time, and we hope that you will do us a favor and return him to us."

The four cultivators from Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain: "??????"

Before the words were even finished, the faces of the four cultivators from Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain turned deathly pale.

They turned their heads in horror to look at Deng Qi, whose expression still held a hint of naivety. Their minds went blank, as if a bomb had gone off in their heads.

I'll fuck your mother...

What's wrong with this bastard?!

Does he even know who he's talking to?!

The four of them had only one thought in their minds.

it's over...

I just hope that when this senior takes action, he won't kill me too.
