Cultivating Through The Game-Chapter 768 - 396: Kiss

Lu Yu ventured deep underground and soon provoked an attack by undead vines.

The twisted gravity around him tore apart all the approaching vines; these undead vines were formidable against Martial Cultivators at the Qi Sea realm.

But in front of Lu Yu, they were worthless.

Lu Yu quickly found a cavern underground, surrounded by purplish-red crystalline vines, and even through the thick layers, he could sense the dangerous aura within.

It felt as though taking one more step could lead to his soul being obliterated.

Lu Yu understood that the danger he sensed came from his master's Heart Sword Technique.

He was a bit tongue-tied; for his master to be trapped like this, the Venerable White Bone who dominated Yunhai City had some exaggerated strength.

Just a Venerable, to imprison a True Person, was somewhat unbelievable.

"Hmm?" Lu Yu halted, noticing that the purplish-red crystalline vines ahead were continually devouring the surrounding Spiritual Qi, Qi Blood... all forms of energy, and if he approached any closer, he would be affected.

Considering his master was already trapped, Lu Yu dared not advance further.

Watching from afar, with his hand outstretched and back of his hands together, it seemed as though he had plunged into a rift. The invisible gravity enveloped the soil around the purplish-red crystalline vines, with the other end of the gravity winding around Lu Yu's hands.

"Open!" Lu Yu shouted.

Rumble~ The ground trembled, the soil parted, exposing the purplish-red crystalline vines to the air, and a white rift appeared above Lu Yu's head.

Using gravity as a lever, Lu Yu used his boundless strength to forcibly tear the earth apart.

Rumble~ The entire Yunhai City felt the tremor there as a ball of purplish-red crystalline vines slowly rose from the ground to the surface.

Lu Yu gripped the gravity entangling the base of the purplish-red crystalline vines from afar and gave it a fierce yank.

Crack~ The base of the purplish-red crystalline vines creaked, as if ready to break any moment, and Lu Yu, holding his breath with exertion, continually increased the power in his hands.

He couldn't thoroughly crush all the purplish-red crystalline vines, but to just break one, he couldn't believe he couldn't do it.

Crack~ Bang~ A vine broke, scattering countless purplish-red particles turning everything nearby into a crystalline form.

After expending a great deal of effort to tear one vine, Lu Yu, gazing at the ball formed of at least a hundred vines, could only switch tactics with no other choice.

Shouting in that direction, he said, "Master, be careful for a moment."

"Hmm."

A calm and forceful voice reached Lu Yu's ears, bringing a breath of relief to his heart. It seemed his master's situation wasn't as perilous as imagined.

With his master's response secured, Lu Yu summoned the Boundless Star, and the force of space began to whirl in.

Silently and soundlessly, a pitch-black space rift appeared around Lu Yu, with faint sounds of spatial fracture echoing in his ears.

Soon, without the support of spatial force, the rift vanished.

Fissures appeared ahead of Lu Yu, each one distancing from him while approaching the purplish-red crystalline vines.

It was the first time Lu Yu attempted to open spatial fissures from a distance; previously, he usually did so directly in front or beside him, with little difficulty.

Once distance was involved, it became incredibly tricky to accurately open a spatial fissure, with a risk of accidentally opening it in the middle of the purplish-red crystalline vines and engulfing Li Qiuyang.

After all, the visual distance did not equate to spatial distance.

He had to move step by step, getting closer to the purplish-red crystalline vines, to prevent any accidental slicing of his master into pieces.

Lu Yu wielded the Earth Emperor Star with one hand, manipulating gravity to pull the purplish-red crystalline vines from underground, restraining them mid-air, leaving no escape.

With the Boundless Star in the other hand, he manipulated spatial force to cut through the sphere of purplish-red crystalline vines, to rescue his master.

"Now's the chance!"

Seeing Lu Yu wholeheartedly engrossed in rescuing his master, revealing an opening behind him with no defense, He Yichao suddenly burst from underground to attack Lu Yu.

Boom! Talisman papers scattered all around, shattering into sparks of spiritual light mid-air, vanishing into the air. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Huang Ying's silhouette appeared not far away, with the Talismanic Celestial Dragon hovering above her head. Staring intently at He Yichao, she loudly shouted to Lu Yu without turning, "Don't worry about him; rescue your master quickly; I'll hold him off."

Hearing Huang Ying, Lu Yu actually wanted to say, you could leave him be as well... But since she wanted to lend a hand, Lu Yu didn't mind, as dealing with He Yichao did require some attention.

Concentrating now to retrieve his master was the utmost priority.

"Damn it!" He Yichao cursed, turning to Huang Ying. Although he wielded power comparable to a Martial Cultivator at the Nascent Soul realm, it was all in sheer quantity of Spiritual Power, lacking in quality.

Moreover, his body was rather fragile, but this wasn't a significant issue for him, considering he possessed an unlimited revival ability.

He Yichao spread his arms, unleashing a flood of undead vines from underground, charging towards Lu Yu and Huang Ying.

Huang Ying's eyes sharpened, with her natal Divine Soldiers glowing, as the Talismanic Celestial Dragon dispersed instantly, forming a wall of talisman paper that intercepted all vines targeting Lu Yu, while talisman paper lifted her body skyward.

From her ring, she took out a radiant talisman paper, activated its power, and it vanished, with a vast storm cloud appearing above He Yichao's head, discharging hundreds to thousands of thunderbolts.
