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

As soon as Lu Yang finished speaking, footsteps sounded outside the cave.

The footsteps were neither hurried nor slow, one after another, echoing in the dark and narrow cave corridor, growing ever closer.

Soon, a figure emerged from the end of the corridor.

He was a tall, thin middle-aged man with long, black hair that was not tied up but casually draped over his shoulders, which made his fairly good-looking face look a bit disheveled.

Each of their facial features is individually attractive, and together they are the kind of people who grow to appreciate their appearance more and more over time.

However, at this moment, the expression on his face was blank, his eyes were deep and dark, and there was no light flowing in his pupils, as empty as two dry wells.

It was Yuan Xian.

Lu Yang slowly sized up the other person, and Yuan Xian's empty eyes also looked at him.

The moment Yuan Xian saw Lu Yang, he paused and fell silent.

Then, a very faint ripple appeared on his wooden face, a faint glimmer of light appeared in his empty eyes, and his lips moved as if he were talking to himself: "...Early Foundation Establishment stage."

Lu Yang chuckled lightly, his expression relaxed, and said, "Yes, senior, what brings you here?"

Yuan Xian seemed not to hear Lu Yang's words, still muttering something to himself, his eyes fixed on Lu Yang without blinking.

Gradually, his skin seemed to have its own life and will, and it began to slowly wriggle, as if something was moving and undulating under his skin.

Immediately afterwards, his eyeballs slowly protruded from their sockets, held in place by two dark brown wooden tentacles from behind, gradually reaching towards Lu Yang.

The wooden tendrils were covered with fine textures and had a dark luster, resembling some kind of ancient tree root or the tentacles of some living creature.

They peeked out from Yuan Xian's eye sockets, stretching longer and longer, until they finally stopped not far in front of Lu Yang, as if scrutinizing him up close.

Lu Yang never expected this guy to turn into such a pathetic sight; he even looked like a monster from a horror movie.

You should know that Yuan Xian was originally a True Monarch in the Nascent Soul stage!

Just by entering that alternate dimension and being affected by that evil void entity, it turned out like this?

Just as Lu Yang was pondering, Yuan Xian's muttering grew louder and louder, his tone changing from blank to increasingly urgent, as if driven by something: "Early Foundation Establishment stage... Early Foundation Establishment stage... Grab him... Grab him!"

Before he could finish speaking, a strange change suddenly occurred around Lu Yang.

The surrounding space rippled with concentric circles of water-like patterns, as if pebbles had been thrown into a calm lake.

Tree roots emerged from the void, densely packed, numbering at least a hundred. Each root was inscribed with eerie runes and emitted an extremely strange fluctuation of spiritual energy.

Cold, distorted, and inexplicably unsettling.

These roots moved at an astonishing speed, tearing through the air with a sharp whistling sound as they all pierced towards Lu Yang.

Lu Yang's true cultivation level was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, so he had no time to avoid such speed.

However, just as those roots were about to touch his body, they all stopped, as if blocked in mid-air by an invisible barrier.

On Lu Yang's panel, the total number of spirit stones suddenly decreased by more than one million mid-grade spirit stones.

The "Heavy Weight of Money" effect was triggered, and the attack just now was clearly beyond Lu Yang's current strength to withstand.

A cold glint flashed in Lu Yang's eyes, but he wasn't too surprised.

He originally wanted to see how Yuan Xian would react when he saw that his strength was not at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.

After all, Yuan Xian was sent by that Void Evil, so we can see how the Void Evil reacts.

Now it seems the reaction was much stronger than he had imagined!

He even suspected that the tentacles protruding from this space were personally made by that evil void creature!

This void evil is very interested in him?

Without saying a word, Lu Yang immediately used the [Power of Money].

This time, it only cost two hundred million mid-grade spirit stones, and the familiar warm current once again flowed into my limbs and bones.

His cultivation level rose steadily, soaring from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to the peak of the Divine Transformation stage in the blink of an eye.

The laws of the Great Dao manifested as a magnificent, colorful mist, swirling and swirling around him.

Platinum, silver, deep blue, black and white... all kinds of brilliance intertwined, enveloping him.

A terrifying pressure emanated from Lu Yang and spread in all directions, causing the entire cave to tremble slightly, and fine stone dust to fall from the stone walls.

Lu Yang raised his eyes and glanced at Yuan Xian.

Dozens of pitch-black sword marks suddenly appeared around Yuan Xian's body, their sword intent as sharp as frost.

Almost the instant the sword marks appeared, they contracted inward, like an invisible strangulation cage, shredding Yuan Xian and the wooden tendrils protruding from his eye sockets into a bloody mist.

Blood mist filled the air, yet something remained within it.

Broken tree roots emerged from the blood mist.

These roots look thin and long, but they are surprisingly tough.

Even with his perfected Nascent Soul cultivation, Lu Yang could only sever the Heavenly Mark Sword Manual, a top-grade Heavenly Rank weapon, but he couldn't completely crush it.

One can only imagine how terrifying the owner of these roots must be.

Even more bizarrely, the severed roots seemed to possess an independent life.

At each break, there was a slight wriggling, like a worm struggling and twisting in the air.

The space in front of them gradually rippled, and the broken roots struggled to merge into the void and escape from this place.

"Trying to leave?"

Lu Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, formed hand seals, and his spiritual energy surged around him, with the sword law and metal law operating simultaneously.

The next moment, in the area where the blood mist was dissipating, countless incredibly sharp golden lines intertwined and emerged.

The fine lines, as thin as hair, emitted a light powerful enough to cleave space, outlining dense patterns at an astonishing speed, layer upon layer like a spider web.

As the patterns became more numerous and denser, they eventually coalesced into an extremely dazzling golden ball of light.

The Golden Sword Manual, cleaving the heavens in the golden palace.

From within the golden light, a piercing scream suddenly rang out.

The roots, which had originally retained their shape, were finally ground to dust and their life force was extinguished under the repeated strangulation of the golden threads.

As the golden light slowly dissipated, the spatial cracks remaining in the air gradually healed.

The torn edges of the void were covered with dense black marks, like cracks on porcelain, and it took a long time for the void to completely return to calm.

The remaining roots that were originally aimed at Lu Yang had already retreated into the void the moment Lu Yang unleashed his cultivation, retreating even faster than they had come, and no one knew where they had escaped to.

The cave fell silent again. Only the occasional tumble of loose stones that had been shaken off the stone walls made a soft sound.

Lu Yang glanced at the void, then used the search function again, asking, "With my current spirit stones, can I use the power of money to kill that void evil?"

Since this thing attacked him and seemed to have the intention of controlling and influencing him, Lu Yang was naturally not the kind of person who would take a beating without fighting back. Naturally, he wanted to kill that thing directly so that he wouldn't be constantly being targeted.

However, he couldn't possibly recklessly rush into the alien space surrounding Xuanhuang Valley. What if that evil void creature was extremely powerful? Wouldn't he be delivering himself to their doorstep if he went in?

So he decided to inquire about the situation first.

Soon, information appeared on the panel.

[Void Evil: Heart-Eating Nether Vine, currently at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, approaching the Void Refinement stage. With the host's current strength, it is difficult to kill. However, the void structure within this alternate dimension is unstable, connecting to the real void. One can use the power of money to gain a higher cultivation level, making it possible to kill. Potential Hazard: The void within this alternate dimension is unstable; prolonged combat could easily attract danger from the real void, requiring a swift victory.]

Upon seeing this information, Lu Yang seemed to be deep in thought.

That evil entity in the void had actually reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, and was even close to the Void Refinement stage.

Moreover, according to the information retrieved from the panel, the alternate space created by the Heart-Eating Nether Vine seems to be somewhat different from the Azure Realm, allowing for breakthroughs to higher levels.

However, there are also certain risks. The Canglan Realm should be a relatively stable plane in terms of spatial structure. This alien space, because it was created temporarily, has an unstable spatial structure and is prone to connecting with the so-called "real void".

Judging from the panel information, there should be quite a few dangers in the [True Void].

If he really intends to attack the Heart-Eating Nether Vine, he must kill it as soon as possible, otherwise the battle might attract some dangerous things.

Lu Yang had no idea what dangers lay within the [True Void].

It's unlikely you'd find it using a search function, since it doesn't belong to the Canglan Realm.

The reason why the Heart-Eating Nether Vine in this alternate dimension can find information is probably because this alternate dimension itself is above Xuanhuang Valley and belongs to a subordinate plane that is attached to Canglan Realm.

Having gathered all the information, Lu Yang made a decision without hesitation.

After entering that alternate dimension, he immediately burned all the spirit stones on his body to raise his cultivation level to a higher level.

Then, after killing the Heart-Eating Nether Vine, he would leave!

Swift action, no future troubles!
