Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Han Yu naturally wouldn’t fool him with pills.

At most, he only artistically exaggerated the effects of the pills!

These are minor matters; just having pills for these bastards to consume is already excellent, and side effects are trivial.

Anyway, that’s how he thinks. He even wishes the side effects of this pill could be more absurd.

It’s best if the outcome later is miserable; maybe it could save him from taking action.

Yuan Rong isn’t stupid. He sneered darkly, ”You probably don’t know the rules of the world in the Central Continent!”

This statement caught Han Yu off guard; weren’t they talking about pills? How did it lead to the rules of the world?

Yuan Rong snorted coldly, glanced at the pill, and then slowly spoke, ”The rules of the world in the Central Continent do not allow for flawless things, your pill’s effect is too extraordinary, it’s either fake, or there’s a trap waiting for me.”

What is flawless means without any defects; extremely perfect.

Furthermore, nothing in human affairs is allowed to enjoy benefits without any drawbacks.

Perhaps Yuan Rong’s understanding of this rule may not be accurate, but he knows such a rule exists and influences this world.

However, he had heard a few senior figures discussing this rule, and their views were similar, but with slight differences in interpretation.

Things have two sides, one yin, and one yang.

This is their understanding.

No matter which aspect, it made Yuan Rong cautious about this pill.

”Firstly, the pill is real; if it weren’t for disrupting the high platform, I wouldn’t give it to you.”

What Han Yu said was true, and it made Yuan Rong skeptical.

”Did someone behind you give it to you?”

In his understanding, if the pill is real, then it’s likely a third party force gave it to Han Yu for protection.

That’s his speculation, but from another angle, his thoughts quickly ruled out the Central Continent first.

So, is there indeed a third-party influence wanting to get involved?

No matter how shocked he was inside, Han Yu still pushed the pill over again.

”Who told you this pill is flawless; haven’t you listened to its name! Blood Burning Soul Pill, does your blood and soul come for free?”

This statement seemed to have some truth.

For a moment, Yuan Rong was indeed tempted.

Especially with the pill’s effects, not only can it instantly heal injuries, but it can also temporarily explode with five times the power.

But the phrase ”Blood Burning Soul” inexplicably gave him a very scary feeling.

Then he hesitated.

”Not taking it is fine, I don’t want to give it to you in Yama Hall.”

Han Yu made a gesture to take the pill back, getting ready to leave.

”Where are you going?”

Yuan Rong hurriedly called out to stop him; he clearly saw Han Yu preparing to use Earth Escape, and the direction was obviously wrong. It’s not towards the high platform.

Han Yu rolled his eyes and spoke bluntly.

”You’re half-dead now, and the high platform is too dangerous. I’m going home to sleep.”

Damn!

Wasn’t the plan to mess things up?

Yuan Rong was instantly dumbfounded; if Han Yu really left, who was going to disrupt the high platform?

”I will protect you; you just need to attack the high platform.”

Yuan Rong was angry and spoke while gritting his teeth.

”You?”

Han Yu’s expression turned mocking, as he looked up and down at Yuan Rong’s frail and aged body.

”Killing you would be effortless; what kind of protection are you offering!”

After speaking, he immediately disappeared into the ground, while Yuan Rong’s expression changed drastically, hurriedly speaking.

”If I take the pill, won’t I be able to protect you!”

Unfortunately, as soon as he spoke, Han Yu was already gone, not only gone but his presence completely vanished. This scene genuinely left Yuan Rong stunned.

So capricious, just leaving like that?

He internally cursed repeatedly, wondering which fool trained this guy, with no sense at all.

No awareness of the bigger picture.

”Will you really take it?”

Han Yu’s voice suddenly appeared behind him, causing Yuan Rong to turn frantically with a look of surprise.

How did this guy silently appear behind him?

In reality, Han Yu hadn’t left; Earth Escape was just psychological pressure for Yuan Rong.

He’s eager to disrupt the high platform, knowing Yuan Rong will be more anxious than he is.

”I’ll take it!”

Yuan Rong gritted his teeth; the stronger cultivators all share a common flaw.

That is, they don’t believe any pill can pose a fatal threat to them.

This old habit, Han Yu has seen many starting from the Realm of Transcendence, there are quite a few strong figures in the Central Continent who thought this way.

Then the victims in the Divine Platform Realm, Liu Zongyuan, Wang Xingzhi...

Now it’s reached the Divine Dao Realm, Yuan Rong.

Yuan Rong’s expression was complicated as he grabbed the pill, hesitating for a moment. He wasn’t afraid it would kill him; he was just worried the pill might be fraudulent.

”You’ll know whether it’s real once you take it, I only have this one, even if you wanted more, there isn’t.”

Han Yu angrily retorted.

Only then did Yuan Rong, with a furrowed brow, swallow the pill. A bizarre aura quickly spread, first impacting Han Yu with a huge wave of energy.

Han Yu cursed immediately.

”Bastard, another one who curses after eating from the bowl.”

He thought Yuan Rong intended to attack after recovering.

In reality, he wronged him because Yuan Rong himself wore a strange, bewildering expression.

The pills were real!

Not only real, but his power indeed skyrocketed fivefold.

As a result, he couldn’t adapt to the sudden surge in his aura, and it simply exploded.

Then his gaze at Han Yu became quite intriguing, filled with killing intent, apprehension, and a trace of peculiarity.

But ultimately, his killing intent was suppressed, his apprehension was deeply buried, and his remaining rationality would not allow him to act.

After all, Han Yu’s role was critically important now.

After swiftly gathering his aura, Yuan Rong soared into the sky.

Han Yu curled up his lips and laughed as well. Wasn’t there someone to take the load now?

Meanwhile, Jiu You and Jiang Xinyuan were still fiercely engaged in battle, with abnormal phenomena appearing behind both.

The bright moon hung in the sky, with stars emerging from the phenomenon, triggering a meteor shower.

Waves roared in a sea of blood, a red ocean storm dragging the meteor inside.

Their intertwined auras distorted the surrounding space, almost causing any cultivators within a few miles to not dare stay.

Suddenly, a stream of light streaked across the sky, both turned to see Yuan Rong coming fiercely.

With just a single blow, he sent Golden Cicada flying from the array, a piercing cry echoing as Golden Cicada crashed heavily to the ground.

Then Yuan Rong turned to the high platform, unleashing his malevolence, commanding the Fierce Ghost Dharma Aspect to charge forward.

This time he was cautious, not daring to appear together or even contact the Dharma Aspect, fearing another calamity.

Boom!

With just one strike, the high platform began to tremble incessantly.

That’s it!

Yuan Rong’s face brightened with joy, naturally becoming overjoyed.

Just as he was about to continue, Jiang Xinyuan wasn’t willing to let it be.

A misty purple aura spread out, instantly concealing the entire scene, enveloping even the high platform.

Using the same dirty tricks!

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Xinyuan vanished from in front of Jiu You, reappearing on the high platform, where the bright moon descended, directly blasting the Fierce Ghost Dharma Aspect away.

To his surprise, this time it was just blasting it away.

The Fierce Ghost Dharma Aspect shook and steadied itself, immediately returning to unscathed form, attempting to charge toward the high platform again.

”Your strength...”

Jiang Xinyuan immediately noticed something amiss. Why had Yuan Rong’s aura suddenly escalated so much?

Before he could figure it out, Jiu You caught up, the phenomenon behind him unfurling into a blood sea intent on enveloping the purple aura.

”Wishful thinking!”

Jiang Xinyuan scoffed coldly, waving a hand as his Dharma Aspect went toward the Fierce Ghost, his own form swiftly hiding within the purple aura, launching a sneak attack.

At this moment, Han Yu had already arrived, or rather, he had been there for a while, watching the spectacle.

Right beside Yuan Rong.

”Don’t forget your real task,”

Yuan Rong couldn’t help but urge.

”Why is it that even though you are all at the pinnacle of the Divine Dao Realm, he is so much stronger than the two of you?”

Han Yu asked the question that had long puzzled him, as both Di Liuxin and Jiang Xinyuan should have been about the same as Yuan Rong and the others.

But in reality, Di Liuxin and Jiang Xinyuan were obviously much stronger than the ones from Yama Hall.

”If I answer, will you get on with your task?”

Yuan Rong was still concerned about whether the high platform would be destroyed, so he could only respond coldly.

Han Yu naturally agreed wholeheartedly. Understanding more about future adversaries was undoubtedly beneficial.

”It’s all about skills. What we lack are the means. Cultivation is important, but at equal levels of cultivation or strength, the means become very important.”

Yuan Rong appeared impatient, especially when mentioning his own shortcomings.

What they lacked compared to Di Liuxin was precisely the means.

Di Liuxin’s true Dharma Aspect integration, Jiang Xinyuan’s purple aura, and the various phenomena were all means.

And they were all significantly superior means than theirs.

Of course, it could also be attributed to the Dao Seed, whose Dao was stronger was naturally stronger.

These matters hadn’t been delved into because Yuan Rong believed Han Yu might not understand even if explained without having stepped into the Divine Dao.

The Divine Dao was endless, a path of increasing strength with continuous cultivation.

Han Yu actually somewhat understood already. It seemed similar in principle; with his understanding of divine technique application, even with the same level of Gold Divine Power and equal Sea of Consciousness strength, there were vast differences achievable between him and Xia Wuyou.

”The so-called means are just about who reaches the ultimate use of power, right?”

Han Yu said this, immediately rendering Yuan Rong shocked.

Because Han Yu’s summary was already close to the essence of it all.

In other words, this guy hadn’t even reached Divine Dao yet grasped the essence only touched upon in Divine Dao.

”Get to work!”

Yuan Rong scoffed coldly, suddenly feeling insulted.

Because what he... took thousands of years to touch upon, this guy grasped so quickly?

Han Yu was suddenly in a great mood; in that case, the knowledge from this old guy, Zhizou, was immensely valuable!

The things taught were so ahead of their time.

No wonder the extra trials were so difficult, daring him to encounter things beyond his level.

This old guy, indeed not simple.

Now believing him to be just Zhizou alone, even in death, would prove impossible.

A damned ghost from a ruined village with such insight?
