Chapter 216: Scapegoats

Before, the system did not have any comments on the cultivation techniques Lu Yuan had obtained.

Was it because the system felt that the cultivation technique he had learned before was not worthy of its evaluation at all?

“I didn’t expect you to be such a system!” grumbled Lu Yuan internally.

Although he was complaining, Lu Yuan immediately looked at the specific effects of the Mountain River Mystical Black Tortoise Diagram.

“Effect 1: mystical black tortoise power. Nine times stronger than black tortoise power.”

“Effect 2: Mountain River Array Formation. You can use the mystical black tortoise power to set up an array without relying on a magic item.”

“Effect 3: Mountain River Power. As long as you are on the ground, your spiritual power recovery speed will be twice as fast as normal.”

It was obvious that this Mountain River Mystical Black Tortoise Diagram combined all the advantages of the three cultivation techniques.

It contained the terrifying physique and defensive power of the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique, the array effect of the Mountain and River Array Formation, as well as the Mountain River Scripture’s power of the earth.

To put it bluntly, Lu Yuan was currently the strongest man if he remained on the ground.

If Lu Yuan’s feet left the ground, Lu Yuan’s strength was not bad, but it wasn’t as terrifying.

Lu Yuan estimated that his nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core’s spiritual energy recovery speed was nine times that of a one-patterned way of the heavens golden core.

And a one-patterned way of the heavens golden core was nine times more powerful than a one-patterned way of the earth golden core.

In other words, if Lu Yuan encountered a cultivator with a one-pattern way of the earth golden core at this moment, he would be able to kill them.

That would definitely be a complete thrashing of the opponent.

Since the nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core was so difficult to achieve, it naturally had its perks.

In the game’s words, Lu Yuan, who had successfully condensed a nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core, could obtain more attributes than others of the same level.

The difference was like the difference between a hidden class and a normal class.

Otherwise, there was no need for Lu Yuan to pay such a huge price to complete the nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core.

Now, he had obtained the Mountain River Mystical Black Tortoise Diagram, which was an invincible recovery and defense technique.

Even if Lu Yuan stood still and let cultivators of the same level beat him up, they might not be able to break through his spiritual energy barrier.

However, Lu Yuan was not so arrogant that he would really stand there and let others beat him up. He wasn’t a villain in a movie or television series who would let the main characters attack first before showing his true abilities.

Lu Yuan would definitely use his ultimate move on the main characters right away.

“Brother Lu, it seems that you’ve already chosen the cultivation technique you want?”

Lu Yuan turned around and saw Zhuang Yangbing behind him.

Due to the uniqueness of the last three levels, outsiders could not see what kind of cultivation technique one had chosen.

Therefore, Zhuang Yangbing did not know what Lu Yuan’s cultivation technique was.

But it didn’t matter. Zhuang Yangbing didn’t want to know either.

He came over at this time because he naturally had a request for Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan also noticed it. With the principle of favors going a long way, Lu Yuan asked, “Fellow Daoist Yue Shan, tell me what you want me to do. I don’t think you randomly told me the effect of the array formation here for free.”

Zhuang Yangbing laughed when he saw Lu Yuan’s attitude.

It was easy to talk to smart people.

No one needed to say anything to understand each other’s intentions.

At this point, Zhuang Yangbing had nothing to hide. “Since you’ve said so, then 1’11 say it directly. The reason why I told you these things is because I need to borrow the divination power of the Tianji Sect.”

Perhaps he was worried that Lu Yuan would reject him, Zhuang Yangbing hurriedly added, “Fellow Daoist Lu, don’t worry. What 1 want you to do is very simple. It won’t cause you too much trouble.”

“Please speak, Fellow Daoist Yue Shan. If it’s not troublesome, I’m willing to help you,” Lu Yuan replied.

Zhuang Yangbing nodded and looked around.

Lu Yuan immediately understood what Zhuang Bingyang meant. He knew that where they were was not a good place to talk.

Hence, the two of them walked to the first floor and chose a secret room.

After entering the secret room, Zhuang Yangbing thought that no one would know about their situation.

However, Lu Yuan could sense that there was a spiritual sense sweeping over the two of them.

If not for the nine-patterned way of the heavens golden core, which caused Lu Yuan’s perception of spiritual sense to be extremely sensitive, he would not have been able to sense it very well.

In addition, the other party did not expect the two small Core Formation Stage cultivators to be able to detect his existence. Therefore, the process of observing the two of them was a little careless.

Otherwise, Lu Yuan would not have been able to discover the hidden spiritual sense.

Without a doubt, the spiritual sense belonged to that of an Apotheosis Stage cultivator.

However, when Lu Yuan realized that most of the spiritual sense’s attention was on Zhuang Yangbing, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

It seemed like the Apotheosis Stage cultivator was paying more attention to Zhuang Yangbing.

Thinking of that, a bold idea suddenly appeared in Lu Yuan’s mind.

Originally, Lu Yuan was still thinking about how he could perfectly clear the suspicion on him and not be caught by the Upper Realm for having stolen luck.

In fact, it would be best if the Upper Realm did not find out about it.

However, with the appearance of the Apotheosis Stage powerhouse, it meant that the Upper Realm had already noticed the situation.

If Lu Yuan was not wrong, the reason why the Apotheosis Stage cultivator paid so much attention to Zhuang Yangbing was probably because they thought that Zhuang Yangbing was the one who stole the luck.

Perhaps it was because they hadn’t found any crucial evidence yet, or perhaps it was because they felt that the time wasn’t ripe yet.

As a result, the other party had no intention of attacking Zhuang Yangbing.

That also gave Lu Yuan a very good opportunity to find someone to take the blame for him.

Moreover, Lu Yuan clearly remembered that the current Xueyang Sect was completely different from before. The members of Xueyang Sect who entered the Full Moon Mountain Range seemed to have been replaced by a special organization. One of the goals of those guys was to seize the luck of this world.

Lu Yuan had the perfect scapegoats!

Whether those people could take the blame for him in the end, they could at least help divert attention away from Lu Yuan, which was beneficial to Lu Yuan.

Those guys were able to enter the Lower Realm, so they were definitely not weak.

In terms of the degree of threat to the Upper Realm, Lu Yuan’s free cultivation technique was nothing at all.

The more Lu Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that the plan was very reliable.

The most important thing for a steady person was not to be rigid.

The world was full of variables, and even the most perfect plan had the possibility of failure.

Adapting to the situation was what a steady person should do.

If Lu Yuan could make use of Zhuang Yangbing to divert the attention of that Apotheosis Stage cultivator from the Immortal Ascension Assembly, then there would be plenty of things Lu Yuan could do in the future!

Thinking of that, Lu Yuan spoke first. “Fellow Daoist Yue Shan, what do you want me to do for you?”

Zhuang Yangbing was silent for a moment before saying, “Fellow Daoist Lu, what I want you to do is actually not difficult. Please help me calculate the exact location of a remnant soul in this area.”

As he spoke, Zhuang Yangbing took out a magic instrument that contained a remnant soul.

Lu Yuan took the magic instrument and quickly sensed the condition of the soul inside.

Generally speaking, cultivators had three souls and seven spirits.

The magical instrument in front of him contained one cultivator’s soul.

If Lu Yuan was not wrong, the soul was Zhuang Yangbing’s soul.

And what Zhuang Yangbing wanted him to help find was probably his other lost souls.

As for why Zhuang Yangbing lost his souls, Lu Yuan didn’t care.

However, with this, Lu Yuan had many possible advantages.

For example… Lu Yuan could say the location of Zhuang Yangbing’s soul was with the cultivators of Xueyang Sect.

That way, Zhuang Yangbing would head there, and it could even shift the attention of the Apotheosis Stage cultivator to that place.

Lu Yuan felt that an Apotheosis Stage powerhouse would definitely be able to see through the peculiarities of those Xueyang Sect cultivators.

Once that time came, his troubles would be easily solved!

“I really have a plan, hehehe…” thought Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan confidently said to Zhuang Yangbing, “Don’t worry. This matter is just a small matter to me. Give me a moment….”
