Chapter 1217: Eight Treasures Return Pill (1/2)
Lu Yun’s past self had committed an incredible blunder in the mythological realm and indirectly led to its destruction. What made him uneasy was that he had a future self waiting for him at a future time…
What might his future self get up to? Perish the thought.
Had the little fox sent another tendril of soul force to keep him company? He also didn’t want to ask or think about it.
……
Seven days later, Miao Qimiao crawled up from a corner of the duke’s compound and cast a shocked look at Lu Yun’s little yard. He ran off with his tail between his legs, finally understanding who the two guest elders in that residence were—supplemental grandmasters!
Only the formations of supplemental grandmasters could pull the wool over the eyes of a peak superior realm cultivator like him.
Him barging into the residence without Lu Yun’s approval was already a violation of good conduct. That Lu Yun and the little fox hadn’t sliced and diced him was a show of face for Zhuo Bufan.
Once he learned that it was two supplemental grandmasters living in the residence, Miao Qimiao turned a blind eye to them wasting the precious treasures of the household. Supplemental path experimentation was an endeavor that consumed an incredible amount of resources to begin with.
Since an explanation had been provided for everything, Miao Qimiao no longer dared nurse any dissatisfaction. Even the Scorch King would have to treat them with utmost respect if they were in Scorching Sun City, to say nothing of a minor duke’s residence in a tiny Starcloud City.
……
Upon receiving Miao Qimiao’s express orders forbidding anyone in the compound to question or provoke the new guest elders, the various experts in the duke’s household finally realized that things were much more than they appeared on the surface and weren’t so bold as to continue complaining.
Lu Yun and the little fox were left in happy quiet.
The little fox practiced illusions and her formations were made completely without foundation. Since all she needed was to call upon Hongmeng qi, she didn’t need to consume any materials.
However, her mind flitted rapidly and randomly between subjects, and she loved to invent curious oddities. Therefore, the amount of resources she consumed far outstripped Lu Yun’s needs.
His experimentation was far more conscientious. He read all of the books and tomes within the duke’s compound over the three years, forming a more or less complete grasp of all knowledge within the third realm.
His mastery of the supplemental paths had left the mythological realm behind and fully become something of this era.
After that, his cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds, truly resonating with the great dao of the Hongmeng and successfully breaking through to peak eternal overlord. He was only half a step away from peak inferior realm.
Both Lu Yun and the little fox had reclaimed their previous cultivation levels. They would ascend smoothly if there was enough strength supporting them, enabling them to continuously reclaim their old skills and abilities.
“The Pill Compendium of the Hongmeng records a precious common realm pill—the Eight Treasures Return Pill. It will help us quickly break through the inferior realm and enter the common realm with the fastest speed possible. We might even become superiors!” Lu Yun’s eyes gleamed as he held a book regarding pills. “But Zhuo Bufan’s compound only has seven of the eight treasures for the pill. We’re missing a crucial one.”
“Which one?” The little fox came close for a peek.
Though their cultivation speed was hardly slow and they’d already reached peak eternal overlord, they didn’t dare relax in the slightest.
