The ultimate Valkyrie has fallen for me

At this moment, the desert and Gobi were like a scorching hot steamer, unbearably hot. Even Lu Yuan had to replenish his water from time to time, and the others kept their water bottles with them at all times.

Upon entering the icy area, they were instantly met with biting cold. Even these physically strong warriors found their limbs stiffening, as if the blood in their bodies had stopped flowing.

Deserts and icebergs are separated by only a thin line, yet they represent two completely different worlds.

More than twenty people gathered around, and they couldn't help but frown.

Then some people walked towards the iceberg and went inside.

Clearly, this is the center of the secret realm, and if there are any great treasures, they must be here.

That is, inside an iceberg!

However, those who went in quickly came out.

It's so cold.

Moreover, the deeper you go, the lower the temperature becomes. So much so that you have to turn back before even reaching the deepest point. Otherwise, your blood would truly freeze completely.

"I don't believe it!"

After their attempts failed, some people remained unconvinced and decided to stand outside and launch a remote attack on the iceberg.

Whether it's firearms or martial arts techniques, no matter what kind of attack it is, when it hits the iceberg, it at most stirs up some white cold air, or even knocks off a piece of ice.

What a solid iceberg.

Everyone was momentarily stunned. Just based on the hardness of this ice, it could be considered a top-grade weapon for crafting equipment.

Of course, this is on the premise that the ice can be broken off.

As for moving the entire iceberg? That's wishful thinking.

Watching everyone fuss, Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, then found a place to sit down and began to cultivate.

Only forty hours remain, and the concentration of cosmic energy here is far greater than before, making cultivation speed several times faster.

As for the iceberg, it is still unknown whether there are any treasures inside. Even if there are, it doesn't matter if we wait.

Besides Lu Yuan, there were other people who also began to sit down and cultivate.

Of course, most people are still trying to outdo the iceberg, because getting the so-called "treasure" inside is worth more than all the gains of the past month.

And so, time passed by, second by second.

Ten hours passed in the blink of an eye.

There are 30 hours left until the final deadline.

"call."

Lu Yuan opened his eyes and gently exhaled.

The energy concentration in the universe here is extremely high, and the cultivation speed is fast, but the remaining thirty hours are far from enough for him to condense his third star core.

There's still one Star Fruit in the spatial ring, but even if I eat it, it won't be enough.

The cultivation of the Star Core Realm becomes increasingly difficult as one progresses, with the leap being so vast that the demand for cosmic energy alone far exceeds Lu Yuan's expectations.

This means that his cultivation level cannot be improved any further before he leaves this place.

Unless, when the time comes, he refuses to leave.

The problem is that the penalty for exceeding the time limit is too severe. Not to mention several days, even just one or two hours is enough to make him ask for leave on the spot.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but look at the iceberg.

"what?"

As he was pondering this, Lu Yuan suddenly realized...

There are fewer people.

Although I hadn't counted carefully before, there should have been more than twenty people here. Now, only sixteen remain!

What about the others?

Lu Yuan watched for a while, but no one came out of the iceberg. Had they left?

After all, there are still thirty hours left. Even if they can't enter the ice mountain and get the so-called treasures, simply cultivating is still good. No one should voluntarily leave the secret realm.

Or perhaps they ran out of water and went back to find more.

Maybe.

After all, it is still extremely hot outside the iceberg, and water is essential for everyone else.

Lu Yuan decided to stop thinking about it and drank some water to continue his cultivation.

"brother."

Just then, a man suddenly walked up to Lu Yuan, bent down slightly, and said in a low voice.

"I see you still have a high-pressure water bag on you. You must have brought a lot of water with you. Could you spare some for me? I'll pay for it."

"Buy it with money?"

Lu Yuan looked at the man and chuckled softly.

"Sorry, I don't have any extra water here."

In the current situation, the water is the time that can be left in the secret realm!

It's fate!

If it were in exchange for other high-value resources, Lu Yuan might be able to agree.

He actually wants to pay money to buy it?

What's the difference between this and Bai Yao?

"Brother, I'll offer 10,000 yuan for a bottle of water, which only costs two or three yuan outside. Isn't that a generous offer?"

The man was still pestering him, but Lu Yuan was too lazy to pay him any attention.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Lu Yuan still hadn't spoken, the man stroked his chin and suddenly his face darkened.

"Kid! Don't push your luck! Hand over the water!"

As he spoke, his five fingers, like claws, reached for Lu Yuan's collar.

He wanted to use force!

Yes, for martial artists, seizing resources is a perfectly normal thing.

Water is now an important resource.

Lu Yuan was already prepared and, without the slightest hesitation, threw a punch directly at the target.

Bang~!

With a muffled thud, the man was sent flying.

As a disciple of the Extreme Martial Arts School, that person was not weak, but unfortunately, he was facing Lu Yuan.

"Pfft~!"

The man fell to the ground and was about to try to get up when he spat out a mouthful of blood.

His face turned pale instantly, and he looked at Lu Yuan in shock.

He hadn't expected Lu Yuan to be so powerful.

Swish~!

At this moment, Lu Yuan stood up, his battle sword already in his hand, its chilling blade gleaming.

"If you beat a dog and it doesn't kill you, you'll get bitten instead." Although Lu Yuan didn't intend to kill this person, he at least wanted to incapacitate him.

"Kid! What are you trying to do? I'm from the Extreme Martial Arts Academy, and my master is Wei Chen! If you do anything to me, my master won't let you get away with it!"

Seeing Lu Yuan approaching, the man panicked completely and shouted. Seeing that Lu Yuan didn't stop, he became even more flustered.

"Furthermore, does your Starry Sky Martial Arts Club intend to offend our Extreme Martial Arts Club? This could ignite a war between our two organizations!"

"Oh."

Lu Yuan did not stop, and couldn't help but sneer.

This even sparked a war between the two families. Who did he think he was, the son of the head of the Yakuza Martial Arts School?

Let alone the war between the two families, even now, with people from the Extreme Martial Arts School still around, not a single one has stepped forward to help.

"You're unlucky to have messed with me."

Lu Yuan snorted coldly and was about to slash at her with his sword.

"etc!"

If I were to be struck by this blade, I would be severely injured, if not killed, and would have no choice but to leave the secret realm.

There are only thirty hours left, that's such a pity.

The man raised his hand and shouted loudly.

"I'll give you a piece of red cloud stone! Just let me go!"

"Um?"

The blade stopped abruptly, and Lu Yuan gently stroked his chin with his fingers.

Red dolomite is also a type of ore used for crafting equipment. As a rare material not found on Earth, it is very expensive.

Since we've already defeated them, it's not unreasonable to accept some benefits in return.

"Ten yuan."

Lu Yuan looked at the man and revealed a shrewd businessman's smile.

The man was already sweating profusely with nervousness. Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, and almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Where am I supposed to get ten pieces of Crimson Cloud Stone for you? Three! Three at most! Otherwise, you can just kill me!"

"Fine, fine, I'll take the loss. Three yuan it is."

With only thirty hours left and three Crimson Cloud Stones already their limit, Lu Yuan nodded directly.

Upon seeing the two making the transaction, the others paused, their gazes darkening.

Yes, that's another way.
