The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

With a dragon's roar, Ye Tian and other top geniuses joined the battle.

As various strange phenomena unfolded, the entire sky began to turn colorful.

For a time, the aftershocks of the battle between the two sides continued to radiate outwards, but fortunately, the protective formation of the sect completely blocked these aftershocks from entering.

However, the people in the sky and below had already begun to let loose a bit.

Early in the morning, some people had already started setting up stalls on the streets.

Seeing the bustling scene on the street, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but twitch his lips.

"Wow, they're really relaxing!"

Hearing Lu Changfeng's mutterings, an old man next to him chuckled and explained,

"Haha, young man, what are you saying? We have no choice but to relax!"

"We mere mortals can't win a fight, and we can't run away either. Thinking too much is pointless!"

"So everyone's come to terms with it, just do what they're supposed to do, and leave the rest to fate!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng was slightly taken aback, then couldn't help but laugh.

"That makes sense!"

The old man is right. With the leg strength of an ordinary person, it would be impossible to avoid the battle between Nascent Soul stage cultivators even if they ran for their entire lives!

If they wanted to resist, let alone being mortals, even Foundation Establishment or Golden Core cultivators would be helpless.

So just do what you're supposed to do. Don't try to avoid small things, but you can't avoid big things even if you want to!

The old man laughed when he saw this.

"Haha, come on, young man, how about two more donkey meat pancakes? They're so delicious!"

Seeing this, Lu Changfeng did not refuse.

"Sure!"

The two then started chatting, completely unaware that the young man beside them was a Golden Core expert.

They lived at the foot of the Tianxing Sect and were quite familiar with the situation within the sect.

So he was just regarded as an outer disciple who lived in the outer sect and liked to chat.

The Heavenly Star Sect has existed for so many years, and especially since the children of the new era began to awaken their spiritual roots, the number of disciples who have joined the Heavenly Star Sect in recent years is no less than ten million. It is perfectly normal for some of them to be talkative.

Just as Lu Changfeng was about to continue his stroll, he suddenly felt several gazes from behind him.

He noticed those gazes almost instantly.

kindness?

What happened?

Normally, he wouldn't feel this way if a passerby glanced at him a couple of times, but now that he does, it means they're plotting something against him.

Then he carefully assessed the situation of these people.

Unexpectedly, it was actually a Foundation Establishment cultivator, but not a human cultivator, but a sea monster.

At this moment, they disguised themselves in the refugee crowd through special means.

But Lu Changfeng still couldn't understand why these sea monsters were targeting him. He was a celebrity, after all!

He immediately began divination.

The results came out quickly, and Lu Changfeng couldn't help but twitch his lips after reading them.

It turned out that these sea monsters intended to destroy the protective formation of the Heavenly Star Sect, but after entering, they discovered that the core of the formation was within the inner sect area.

This time, those seeking refuge were concentrated at the outer gate, and they were not allowed to enter through the inner gate.

This time, they targeted him because he had parents living in the inner sect, and they felt that he was just a minor cultivator in the Qi Refining stage, and that he was easy for them to capture.

All he could say to that was, "Dude, how long has it been since you updated your profile?"

You should know that several years ago he had kept his cultivation level at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. Recently, after learning that Zhen Ji had also reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, he decisively changed it to the peak of Foundation Establishment.

Now that he's being treated as a Qi cultivator, how can he not twitch at the corner of his mouth?

But if they can ambush me, then can't I also take advantage of the Siren Clan?

Thinking of this, he immediately took action, leaving the petty thieves to Zhen Ji.

Thanks to the elder who taught him, he was able to freely enter and leave the sect even when the sect's protective formation was activated.

Before long, he was on the surface of the sea.

Feeling the lingering aftershocks of the battle coming from afar, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but sigh.

"Wow! These people are really exaggerated when they fight!"

"At this level of aftershock, ordinary people simply cannot withstand it and will die with blood flowing from all seven orifices. Even Qi Refining cultivators would not be able to withstand it for long."

Keep in mind that the main battlefield of the battle between the two sides was above the clouds, while we were on the sea, at least ten kilometers apart.

Not to mention this isn't even directly above; the distance is more than ten times greater.

One can imagine the fighting power of these top geniuses.

However, this had little to do with him; the aftershocks of this level of battle were like a gentle breeze to him.

He immediately began to divine the location of the Sea Dragon Clan's treasure.

The results came out shortly afterward, and Lu Changfeng immediately smiled.

"I never expected this! The Sea Dragon Clan actually hid their treasure here!"

According to the divination results, one of the treasure locations of the Sea Dragon Clan is around a small spirit stone mine that Li Mingfei and I dug up last time.

As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

However, this treasure spot contains very little, so it can only be considered a backup treasure spot.

But this is too good for him.

However, there is one thing to be careful about: you must get through this as soon as possible, otherwise you will be taken away by the words.

Lu Changfeng had quite a few feelings about Yanci.

He was almost expelled from the sect and died because he didn't have any spiritual roots. Fortunately, he rented his own house. Later, when his sister reached the age and successfully awakened a mid-grade spiritual root, they finally had their own house.

However, Lu Changfeng has received less attention recently, and it was only recently that people learned that this guy had quietly stolen two treasures from the Sea Dragon Clan.

Now they're even trying to steal things from me. Who can tolerate that? I have to make sure they leave empty-handed this time.

With that in mind, he immediately went to his destination.

He quickly found an ordinary-looking stone. Of course, "ordinary-looking" refers to its appearance, but in reality, he could see with his Star Eye that there was a storage ring inside that emitted powerful spiritual energy.

However, this spiritual power was firmly locked inside the stone shell, and not a trace of it was exposed.

He immediately exclaimed, "No wonder it's been hidden here for so many years without being discovered. It's only because I have divination skills; otherwise, ordinary people wouldn't have been able to find it."

Of course, people like Ye Tian or Yan Ci are exceptions.

Not long after he left, Yan Ci found his way here.

At that moment, he tossed a small dragon-headed cane towards the ground, but instead of landing and pointing in the direction of the treasure as expected, it returned to his hand.

Yan Ci was stunned when he saw this.

"No way! I rushed over here in such a hurry, and someone still managed to steal it! Who was it?!"

"Forget it, let's move on to the next one!"

He took it easy, saying that since it was all free anyway, losing it was no big deal.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Lu Changfeng was also eager to see what good things were inside the storage ring.

As soon as the ring was opened, what was inside dazzled his eyes.

"Wow, a golden legend!"

There were only three items in this storage ring, but each one was a valuable item.

First, there was a drop of essence blood from a Sea Dragon Clan member at the Void Refinement stage.

This stuff is an unparalleled treasure, especially for the Sea Dragon Clan. After taking it, it can purify one's bloodline. This small bottle contains over a hundred drops, enough to make an ordinary Sea Dragon Clan member leap into a minor genius.

The second item is a pseudo-dragon horn, composed of a dragon ball and a dragon horn. Wearing it can temporarily grant one the strength of a fully-fledged Nascent Soul cultivator.

The third item was a brocade pouch, which Lu Changfeng also opened without hesitation.

The contents were simple: since they had already used such a small treasure trove and opened this brocade pouch, it meant that their clan had inevitably reached a point of no return, so they should directly surrender to the human race.

They even said not to feel ashamed, because their Wanxinghai lineage of sea dragons developed with the help of humans, and even the first ancestor was once a human's pet.

After reading Lu Changfeng's work, he exclaimed, "Wow!"

Unexpectedly, the brilliant plan was to directly advise them to surrender.

But it must be said that this method is really good. After all, everyone knows the potential of the Sea Dragon Clan. Whether it is a cultivation family or a major sect, having such a guardian spirit beast will greatly ensure their safety.

Then he began searching the surrounding area.

He certainly knew that the deeper the place, the more treasures there were, but he also knew his own strength. With his cultivation at the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, he could only act recklessly at the Golden Core stage. If someone at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm came along, he would turn around and run away.

It's not that we definitely can't win, it's just not worth it! We might as well just pick up some scraps on the periphery.

Of course, he wouldn't let any opportunity to launch a sneak attack pass him by. After all, he was a member of the Tianxing Sect, and helping out as long as it didn't involve his own safety was no problem.

However, looking around at the sea, and then at myself, all alone...

This makes it stand out a bit.

Fortunately, he was still able to solve it!

"Hehehe, ever-changing, transform for me!"

The next moment he transformed into a giant shrimp, but he immediately shook his head.

"There are plenty of big shots, but they're still too conspicuous. Let's find a less noticeable identity!"

"Change again!"

Instantly, he transformed from a giant shrimp into a seagull.

"Giggle, giggle, the meaning of a bird's life is just to go to the dock and get a couple of fries!"

He himself was quite satisfied.

"Hehehe, looks like this is going to be fun!"

He immediately flapped his wings and took flight, the entire bird instantly soaring into the air.

The wind lashed against him relentlessly, but Lu Changfeng's beak remained stubbornly upturned.

Although I've flown on swords and ridden on small motorcycles many times, this feeling of spreading my wings and flying is a first for me.

Although he really wanted to belt out a few songs, he knew it was best to sneak into the village quietly and avoid being shot.

Soon he saw a sea dragon, hundreds of meters long, descending from the sky.

The sea dragon's corpse crashed onto the sea surface, splashing water hundreds of meters high. As the massive amount of dragon blood spread along the seawater, it immediately attracted a large number of ordinary animals.

However, the lingering oppressive aura emanating from the corpse prevented these ordinary animals from getting close.

Upon seeing this, Lu Changfeng's eyes lit up.

"Wuhu, the opportunity has arrived!"

He immediately flapped his wings, and the bird began to move closer and closer to the dead sea dragon.

However, upon getting closer, he couldn't help but gasp in shock.

The enormous sea dragon's corpse was covered in countless marks left by various magical attacks, a truly gruesome sight.

However, it was his own dragon claws that truly killed the sea dragon.

At this moment, its left forepaw had penetrated through its eye socket and directly into its brain, completing the penetration.

This attack method is clearly the work of the Hehuan Sect. They are most skilled at this kind of illusion, ultimately causing the enemy who falls into the trap to kill themselves.

In addition, he discovered that the most valuable part of the sea dragon, its horn, as well as various other valuable items, had been taken away.

The remaining corpses are now riddled with holes.

But that's precisely why he was willing to come.

All the valuable items were taken away. What remained was worthless to the powerful, but of considerable value to themselves.

However, he didn't continue admiring the scenery, because his purpose in coming out was to search for treasure.

Immediately, a blue light flashed in his eyes; he had activated his Star Eyes, attempting to find any overlooked treasures.

He thought there was no hope, since the strong knew better than he did what was valuable about the sea dragon, but unexpectedly, there was a treasure in the sea dragon's stomach.

He was overjoyed.

"Holy crap, I've found something amazing! Let me see what's going on!"

He quickly reached the dragon's tail and then swiftly pulled out a yellow worm the size of his palm from among the dragon's tail hairs.

Based on the knowledge gained from the already maxed-out fourth-tier top-grade alchemy technique, it can be identified as a dragon beetle, and moreover, a mutated phantom dragon beetle.

It may sound unremarkable, but it has a magical ability: by using special methods, it can temporarily transform its aura into that of a blood-sucking monster.

Combined with simple transformation techniques, then aside from directly attacking, one becomes just like the transformed monster!

Their claim was that they had openly and legitimately stolen two treasures from the Sea Dragon Clan using this item, and had not yet been discovered.

However, this was of little use to him, since the effects of the Thousand Transformations were already stronger than this, and it didn't require bloodsucking, but he still put it away.

"Hehehe, if I sold this to Yan Ci, he definitely wouldn't refuse!"

He immediately placed the mutated water beetle in a storage bag before turning his attention to the remaining enormous corpse.

"Hehehe, this corpse is good stuff too, can't let it go!"

With a single swipe of his claw, he instantly stored the hundred-meter-long sea dragon in his storage ring.

Currently, his storage ring has so much space that it could easily hold a thousand sea dragons, let alone just one.

After taking the items, he continued his search for his next target.

But he soon discovered a problem on a small island.

"Huh, there's a fight going on here?"

Logically, when high-level battles are taking place, most of the lower-level players should be in a state of avoidance. After all, you should stay away from dangerous places, otherwise you can easily be mistaken for a roadside pedestrian.

There's a fight going on here. Could it be that there's some great treasure here that they're unwilling to give up even in such a dangerous situation?

Thinking of this, Lu Changfeng's bird-like eyes immediately lit up.

"Hehehe, when luck comes, you can't stop it! Here comes the fuck!"

He soon landed on a tree branch atop a mountain on the island. He shook the raindrops off his feathers before looking at the two sides engaged in battle.

The majority of them were demonic beasts, but most of them were sea monsters like shrimp and crabs that could go ashore. The one with the highest cultivation level was a crab at the late Golden Core stage.

The crab they were besieging was also a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.

However, when Lu Changfeng used his Star Eye to take a look, he discovered that the besieged Foundation Establishment stage crab was actually Yan Ci!

Seeing this, he couldn't help but complain.

"Good heavens, to run into someone in such a vast ocean, that's unbelievable!"

He then squatted down on a tree branch and began to watch with great interest.

As for saving people, what a load of rubbish! I don't owe him anything.

Besides, even if you want to save someone, you should wait until he's near death, treat him yourself, and then sell him the water beetles. Wouldn't you give him something good then?

What do you call this? This is called taking advantage of someone's kindness!

Lu Changfeng never does a losing business!

Even Ye Tian had to be dragged around several times before he was allowed to leave, let alone a mere word!

At this moment, dozens of demonic beasts were still closing in from within the forest.

The leading crab elder spoke casually.

"Humans, surrender and hand over all your treasures!"

"There's no point in resisting like this!"

Boom!

Yan Ci was holding up the pliers to block the blow, but was still violently smashed away, crashing through dozens of trees before finally coming to a stop, tumbling over.

But he dared not linger, and immediately plunged into the jungle, frowning as he pondered.

"Damn it, I consider my transformation technique to be pretty good, but how could a few mere Golden Core stage demonic beasts possibly detect me!"

Although he himself was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, he looked down on these Golden Core stage demonic beasts.

The reason is actually quite simple: after all, he once used this trick to steal two treasures from the Sea Dragon Clan.

The Sea Dragon Clan holds a dominant position in the Myriad Star Sea, surpassing even the Heavenly Star Sect in high-end combat power.

Of course, this is just his own opinion.

If even the terrifying sea dragons didn't notice, then it's quite strange that these few mere Golden Core stage crab demons would discover something amiss with them.

Hearing this, Lu Changfeng, perched on a tree branch, couldn't help but become curious.

"That's right, Yan Ci has stolen things from the Sea Dragon Clan before, there's no reason why he should have been discovered by these Golden Core stage demon beasts!"

Although he possesses the Heavenly Divination Technique, which allows him to obtain results with a single calculation, he is currently outside and has only used it once today, leaving him with five uses. He must use it sparingly.

So let's just wait quietly for the final result!

Knowing the result this way will allow you to be prepared for the future.

Before long, Yan Ci was surrounded by these demonic beasts at the foot of a cliff.

"Hahaha, human, you finally can't escape!"

At this moment, Yan Ci was leaning against the cliff face, surrounded by demonic beasts.

At that moment, Yan Ci felt that he was doomed, but suddenly his crab leg accidentally burrowed into the cliff wall. He was stunned at first when he realized this, and then he was overjoyed.

However, he pretended to be unwilling and immediately deactivated his transformation and returned to human form.

At this moment, his face was resolute, as if he had truly reached a dead end.

"Heh, now I only have one question: how did you figure out I wasn't a siren?"

"I thought I had disguised myself very well; I shouldn't have been discovered by you mere Golden Core cultivators!"

Immediately, one of the demonic crabs, looking smug, was about to explain, but was kicked away by the leading Golden Core stage crab demon elder.

"Heh, since we're all going to die anyway, why bother knowing so much!"

"All of you, get up here!"

Seeing that the other party wasn't taking the bait, Yan Ci and Lu Changfeng both clicked their tongues in agreement.

Lu Changfeng, in particular, kept complaining.

"Damn it, aren't they going to explain anything in this situation? That crab demon deserves to die!"

He had been waiting for the crab to finish speaking before he made his move, but now he had to wait even longer.

Seeing that the plan had failed, he secretly regretted his miscalculation, but for now, he could only put the issue aside.

He immediately raised his middle finger, then flashed backward, disappearing from everyone's sight in the next instant.

The sea monsters were immediately alarmed and rushed forward to search. However, no matter how hard they searched, even smashing through the cliff, they could not figure out how the words had disappeared.

Lu Changfeng was even more curious at this moment.

Suddenly, his bird eyes slowly lit up, and he saw that the previously destroyed cliff now appeared perfectly intact before him.

Lu Changfeng was taken aback at the sight, but quickly recovered.

"Holy crap, this is actually an illusion array, and not just a simple one!"

A normal illusion array works by interfering with the target's perception, thus creating a feeling of being confused!

But the illusion array in front of them was actually like a virtual projection. The attack just now gave the person involved the feeling that they had really been attacked, and it looked like they had been attacked as well.

But in reality, they only shattered the illusion; the actual cliff remained intact.

He immediately became interested in this mysterious formation.

[Ding! Gift pack refreshed, please purchase in time!]

[Special Offer Formation Pack: Tier 4 Supreme Formation Inheritance, Tier 4 Supreme Formation Skill Book, Tier 4 Supreme Formation Plate. Price: 3280 In-Game Points!]

Lu Changfeng almost burst into tears when he saw the gift package.

How long has it been? Just how long has it been? This gift pack has finally been triggered!

You know, he triggered the alchemy and weapon crafting gift packs a long time ago, but he hasn't triggered this formation at all in all this time.

He even bought a first-tier array master inheritance for this purpose. Now, he finally has a fourth-tier top-grade array master inheritance.

However, he preferred the knowledge-based skill book in this gift pack.

For example, the alchemy gift pack gives him the knowledge of potion making, which is why he can recognize so many spiritual plants. The weapon crafting skill book allows him to recognize most of the spiritual materials in the world today.

He felt that these knowledge-based skill books were more valuable than simple cultivation techniques and arts inheritances.

After all, the former simply lets you get what you want by following the steps, but the latter lets you create what you want directly.

Although the latter requires more understanding from the user, he has an auto-play feature, so why should he worry about that?

There's absolutely nothing to worry about!

As the skill was added to the auto-play menu, Lu Changfeng looked at the virtual cliff again and indeed felt it was quite different.

He also discerned some clues from it; it wasn't simply an upgrade of the illusion array, but rather the addition of some specially crafted defensive arrays.

Take the sect-protecting formation as an example. The formation's core can be located within the inner gate, but its effective range can cover the entire outer gate. This formation was inspired by similar formations and eventually evolved into its current form.

At this moment, Yan Ci was already preparing to enter through the cave entrance left by the person who had modified the cliff.

Seeing this, Lu Changfeng decided not to keep him any longer.

Instantly, it transformed into a groundhog, then, holding a miniature version of the Gold and Silver Dragon Scissors, it slashed the ground and jumped in.
