Chapter 304 The Level Of The Weakest Chicken
Chapter 304 The Level Of The Weakest Chicken
"Hmm... It's actually me. Well... It seems like it will be quite challenging to fight myself."
Upon reaching the twentieth level and seeing the guardian monster, Lu Yu recalled some rumors he had heard before.
Fighting against oneself sounded quite challenging. However, it was actually much more difficult than imagined.
Both sides were familiar with each other's moves, strengths, and weaknesses.
The key was that the opponent's absolute strength was stronger, their reaction speed was faster, and their moves flowed more seamlessly...
In terms of overall strength, ordinary people would not be able to pass this level at all.
However, there were always exceptions.
When Lu Yu saw his own reflection in front of him, he felt very strange.
According to reason, he was at the fourth level of the Foundation Building stage, so the strength of this mirror monster should be at the sixth level of the Foundation Building stage.
However, judging from the density of spiritual power emanating from the opponent, it was at most at the Foundation Building stage.
"Could it be that monsters can also conceal their aura to confuse their enemies?"
Lu Yu was a bit uncertain.
Since he had to fight on both sides, he decided not to dwell on the opponent's strength and simply threw a punch as a greeting.
Sure enough, as soon as he moved, the opponent reacted and prepared to block.
However... the mirror's reaction seemed to be a bit slow, as if it really had the cultivation level of the early stage of the Foundation Building stage.
So when Lu Yu's punch landed, solidly hitting the mirror's arm before it could fully assume a defensive posture...
"Bang..."
The mirror was easily sent flying.
"Huh? Could it be a trap to lure the enemy? No way!"
Seeing that he had gained the upper hand with a single strike, Lu Yu was puzzled.
Wasn't it supposed to be two small realms stronger than his own strength? Is this it?
It seemed a bit disappointing.
To confirm his suspicions, he continued to launch attacks at the mirror.
This time, he didn't use his full strength, only using less than eighty percent.
But even so, the mirror still didn't show the expected strength and was directly sent flying by him.
After a few rounds, Lu Yu finally understood that this mirror seemed to be really weak!
"Could it be a reward? Never mind, let's pass the level first!"
After confirming that the opponent wasn't pretending, Lu Yu burst out with his ultimate move.
As expected, the mirror was instantly killed by his attack.
Turning into countless starlight, it dissipated directly.
"Congratulations on passing the level."
At this moment, Lu Yu heard the voice of the Tianji Tower.
He was a bit surprised because he had never heard that the Tianji Tower could communicate with people.
"Don't be surprised. I am a strand of divine soul left behind by the old man of the Tianji Tower, responsible for guarding the Tianji Tower."
"Hello."
Lu Yu had long known that there was someone guarding the Tianji Tower, and this existence was undoubtedly much stronger than him.
So it was necessary to show some respect.
"Huh, your strength has already reached the fourth level of the Foundation Building stage? But why did the mirror just now only have the strength of the early stage of the Foundation Building stage?"
After communicating with Lu Yu, the Tianji Tower was also very surprised.
Actually, Lu Yu really wanted to tell him that he didn't know either. He always felt that there was a suspicion of going easy on him on the twentieth level.
"Is a part of your spiritual power not cultivated by yourself?"
"Spiritual power cultivated by myself? Well..."
Lu Yu hesitated for a moment.
His rapid improvement in strength mainly comes from dual cultivation.
Before, he spent decades in bitter cultivation to reach the second level of Qi Refining. However, after starting dual cultivation, his realm advanced by leaps and bounds.
As for whether dual cultivation can be considered as his own effort in cultivation?
Effort is there, but cultivation may not necessarily be considered.
"Indeed. The mirror can only replicate the strength cultivated by the challenger themselves and cannot replicate any additional strength obtained. Perhaps that's why your opponent is so weak."
"It seems that this is the only explanation."
Lu Yu nodded, accepting this reason.
"Now that you have passed this level of test, it proves that you are the chosen one by the Tianji Tower. Next, I will pass on to you a copy of the Tianji Heart Technique, which can increase your cultivation speed tenfold! I hope you will cherish it."
The Tianji Tower did not dwell on why the mirror became weaker.
For him, the fact that Lu Yu was able to defeat the mirror was enough. He just needed to accept the fact.
Lu Yu had not yet recovered from the shock when his mind suddenly became filled with many things.
It was as if they had been imprinted in his mind from the very beginning.
Before he had a chance to carefully read what was in his mind, the Tianji Tower continued to speak to him.
"Every twenty levels in the Tianji Tower represent a realm. What you have passed is only the most basic realm. Above the Greedy Wolf Hall, there are intermediate, advanced, and supreme Tianji Towers. The Tianji Elder has placed some parts of the Tianji Heart Technique in them. As long as you work hard to challenge, your future achievements will be limitless!"
After speaking, the voice of the Tianji Tower disappeared.
And Lu Yu's vision blurred, and then it seemed that a big foot appeared in the void, kicking him out of the Tianji Tower.
"Oh my..."
Lu Yu was shocked, flailing and falling to the ground outside.
It was a very embarrassing situation.
Yi Zhong and the Greedy Wolf Hall Master were still amazed that he had successfully challenged the twentieth level, but the next moment, Lu Yu flew out in a sorry state.
This time, the two of them almost burst out laughing.
"Hehe, congratulations to Fellow Daoist Lu for successfully advancing to first place."
Although Yi Zhong said congratulations, his gritted teeth expression didn't seem like he was saying something nice.
"Thank you, thank you."
Although he was in a sorry state, the rewards from this challenge were not small.
He didn't expect that the legendary Tianji Heart Technique would be hidden in the Tianji Tower, and it could only be obtained by passing the twenty-level test.
The Tianji Heart Technique jade slip had already greatly increased the cultivation speed of cultivators. So the deeper hidden Tianji Heart Technique must be even more powerful, right?
So why would he care about Yi Zhong's sarcastic remarks?
Now, the thing he wanted to do the most—
Of course, it wasn't to study the Tianji Heart Technique.
The technique was right there, he could study it whenever he wanted.
But the Fairy Wan Yue might not be waiting for him every day.
They had agreed that as long as he entered the top three in this competition, he could help her change clothes.
Although it was not the end yet, his current result was probably hard to surpass.
Compared to bringing back a beautiful woman, what were techniques?
After Lu Yu stood up and looked around, he immediately saw Fairy Wan Yue blushing not far away.
He probably guessed her intention. After their eyes met, Fairy Wan Yue blushed even more and turned around to walk back.
How could Lu Yu let her go? He quickly followed.
The two of them left the trial ground one after the other, unaware that the people on the trial ground were already in an uproar.
"No way, Lu Yu really passed the twentieth level? How did he do it?"
"They say he was well-prepared, maybe he really hid his true strength."
"I think he must have a deep understanding of formations and deciphered the formations inside the Tianji Tower, so he passed the test easily."
"Tsk..."
Clearly, the crowd did not believe this explanation.
