After saying goodbye to the two, Lu Yu headed toward Luoyan Valley as Han Feng had ntioned.
Luoyan Valley is a mystical place in the Qingyan Mountain Range, where fallen teors frequently land, bringing with them the Celestial Falling Bright Fla and extraterrestrial teoric iron, thus earning the na "Luoyan" (Falling Fla).
The valley’s terrain was ford by the repeated strikes, causing the ground to cave in.
The Celestial Falling Bright Fla is a second-tier Spiritual Fire, and enough of it can incinerate a Martial Cultivator at the Qi Cultivation stage, while also posing a threat to those at the Pressure Cultivation stage.
Extraterrestrial teoric iron is a third-tier rare material, which can be used to forge third-tier Spiritual Weapons or Armors, and is a rare celestial treasure. Even in Luoyan Valley, where teorites frequently crash, it is relatively rare.
Lu Yu spent 50,000 Points to buy a piece of extraterrestrial teoric iron from the system store, only to find that the teoric iron from the store did not co with the Celestial Falling Bright Fla, leaving him sowhat disappointed.
However, this was sowhat expected.
The Celestial Falling Bright Fla is a heavenly fire produced when the teorites fall. Without the right environnt for preservation, it will naturally dissipate in no ti. The fact that Han Feng’s teorite contained the fla ans that it had just fallen, and the fla inside hadn’t dissipated yet.
Stowing away the teoric iron, Lu Yu glanced at his panel.
Qi Blood 529, Spiritual Qi 359 (Ice 178, Fire 181)
The total Spiritual Qi belongs to the normal level of the third Qi Cultivation stage, but the Qi Blood far exceeds that of a third-tier Qi Cultivation.
Even Han Feng, who is at the sixth Qi Cultivation stage, has only 365 points of Qi Blood, while Han Yun at the fifth stage has 341 points of Qi Blood, indicating a very high difficulty in increasing Qi Blood, showcasing Lu Yu’s strong physique.
The fact is, Martial Cultivators in the Qi Cultivation stage generally do not actively cultivate Qi Blood; it only passively improves slightly during Spiritual Qi cultivation. Besides Body Refining Techniques, there aren’t many other thods at the Qi Cultivation stage to increase one’s Qi Blood significantly.
When Lu Yu was idly cultivating the Seven Heavens of Ice and Fire, his Qi Blood didn’t increase; only his Spiritual Qi limit could be improved.
Over the past few days, Lu Yu maintained continuous cultivation operations of the Seven Heavens of Ice and Fire for 24 hours, absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi tirelessly and refining it into his own Spiritual Power. Even then, he only managed to slightly increase his Spiritual Qi limit by just 2 points, with no sign of improvent in his Qi Blood.
The Seven Heavens of Ice and Fire provides two cultivation modes: one for absorbing Spiritual Qi and refining it into one’s own Spiritual Power to increase the Spiritual Qi limit.
The other mode enables the enhancent of Qi Blood, involving the Fiery Body Refinent and the Icy Body Refinent, both increasing the Qi Blood and Spiritual Qi limits.
Previously, Lu Yu only knew the cultivation thod of the first mode. It wasn’t until encountering the Celestial Falling Bright Fla that he understood the cultivation thod for the second Body Refinent mode.
Hot air currents rose from the valley, and even from afar, Lu Yu could see the distorted air above Luoyan Valley.
Whoosh whoosh ~ Boom!
A celestial teorite crashed right before Lu Yu’s eyes into Luoyan Valley, causing a minor earthquake. Before the tremors subsided, Lu Yu could already hear the sounds of battle erupting from within the valley.
Speeding up his pace, he arrived at the edge of the valley and looked down.
It was a vast cratered basin, filled with black teorites. So of the teorites were still sparking and steaming, while others had cooled into black lumps embedded in the basin. Black teorite fragnts littered the ground.
Two or three dozen people were engaged in a chaotic lee surrounding a newly fallen teorite with a diater of over two ters. The newest teorites are the most likely to contain extraterrestrial teoric iron and other rare celestial treasures, prompting fierce competition over their ownership.
Beyond the fray, several teams had already claid other untapped teorites, waiting for their temperatures to drop and for the flas of the Celestial Falling Bright Fla on their surfaces to die out.
So Martial Cultivators were scouring the basin for stray treasures that others might have missed, although the chances of finding anything were slim.
Seeing the bright yellow flas on the teorites, Lu Yu dashed toward the recently fallen teorite, where the Celestial Falling Bright Fla was most vibrant.
"Who is this guy?"
"Which side is he on? Is he one of your new recruits?"
"I don’t know him, he must be a rogue. Kick him out before we continue fighting; he knows no rules!"
Upon seeing Lu Yu charging in, a brief conversation led the two or three dozen people engaged in the lee to split into three teams, advancing to encircle Lu Yu.
The teams in Luoyan Valley are fixed. Any outsider wanting a share of the spoils must replace an existing team to gain acceptance from the other teams.
If one only wants to scavenge treasures from the outskirts without competing for the newly fallen teorites, the others won’t interfere.
An unfamiliar face like Lu Yu’s, who directly rushes in to seize a teorite, will naturally beco the target of unified opposition in order to protect their collective interests at Luoyan Valley.
Newcors like Lu Yu often mistakenly believe that the area around the teorite is a chaotic lee zone, rashly charging into battle, only to be overwheld and annihilated by the combined forces of others.
This ti, however, a small unexpected incident occurred.
Clang clang clang!
When everyone’s attacks neared within ten centiters of Lu Yu’s body, they made sounds akin to hitting tal armor.
A fifth-tier Spiritual Treasure: Void Spirit Armor, priced at 8 million Points in the marketplace, with a limit of one purchase per month.
Capable of withstanding five full-force attacks from the peak of the Pressure Cultivation stage.
Void Spirit Armor is a unique treasure, straddling the line between Spiritual Armor and Spiritual Treasures. Its absence of physical armor deems it categorized under Spiritual Treasures.
The Void Spirit Armor, capable of enduring attacks from the peak of the Pressure Cultivation stage, is not sothing Martial Cultivators in the Qi Cultivation stage can break through.
It’s not that Lu Yu doesn’t want to buy a more advanced sixth-tier protective Spiritual Treasure, but simply that the highest-tier treasure available to him is a fifth-tier one.
Nonchalantly ignoring their attacks, Lu Yu forcefully shoved the obstructing people aside, creating a path toward the teorite.
"What’s going on? Why can’t our attacks reach him?" one of them exclaid in shock upon realizing their weapons couldn’t touch Lu Yu.
Boom! Soone directly in Lu Yu’s path was knocked flying, as everyone looked on stiffly at the person who had been struck. That was the leader of one of the three teams, boasting strength at the ninth stage of Qi Cultivation, yet directly knocked aside.
They hesitated, unsure whether to continue attacking or not.
"Could it be the protective Spirit Armor of soone at the Pressure Cultivation stage?" soone speculated.
These words caused a chill to run down everyone’s spines. Martial Cultivators at the Pressure Cultivation stage were not opponents they could handle.
A group of two or three dozen might stand a chance against soone who had just entered the Pressure Cultivation stage, but against soone like Lu Yu, whose protective Spirit Armor couldn’t even be penetrated, he was assuredly a veteran at that stage.
Everyone retreated three steps collectively, clearing a path toward the teorite. If a big shot at the Pressure Cultivation stage wanted sothing, they had no way to resist.
The leaders of two teams within the crowd turned their gazes toward the distance, showing signs of anticipation in their eyes.
Seeing them step aside, Lu Yu did not attack them, instead rushing to the side of the teorite. Even standing three ters away, he could already feel the searing heat emanating from it.
Deactivating the defensive state of the Void Spirit Armor, Lu Yu accelerated the operation of his Cultivation Technique as he approached the teorite.
Hot! The teorite was within reach, and Lu Yu felt as if he would soon be roasted.
"Perhaps I should start absorbing from the weaker Celestial Falling Bright Fla," Lu Yu thought to himself.
Extending his hand, he felt the searing heat. Suddenly, a sharp pain pierced his palm, as the Celestial Falling Bright Fla, drawn by the suction of the Seven Heavens of Ice and Fire Cultivation Technique, extended a tiny tendril to touch Lu Yu’s palm, scorching it and forming a hollow burn mark.
"You’ll be reduced to charcoal!" the Angelic little Lu Yu on his left said nervously.
"Ah, this is so satisfying. A powerful force is surging into my body. Absorb more; the more you take, the stronger you beco!" the Devilish little Lu Yu on his right whispered.
