Chapter 200: Army of Paper Men 2

Impressed by Lu Yuan’s cultivation, Han Yuanshan had the idea of letting him participate in the Path for Immortal Ascension.

However, Lu Yuan was extremely unwilling to do so.

He only wanted to stay in the Lower Realm safely and did not want to go to the Upper Realm at all.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan replied, “Master, I’ve heard a little about this before, but I don’t think this matter has much to do with me, right?”

He reasoned, “After all, those who can participate in the Path for Immortal Ascension are the best of the best in their respective sects. I am only a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator. It is undoubtedly impossible for me to emerge victorious in the test.”

Hearing Lu Yuan belittle himself, Han Yuanshan said resentfully, “Lu Yuan, how can you be so self-deprecating? Although you might not be the strongest among those who will join the Path for Immortal Ascension, you are definitely not weak. If you’re lucky, you might be able to pass the tests and be noticed by the sects in the Upper Realm.”

Han Yuanshan continued, “It will be difficult for you to break through in the Core Formation Stage. However, if you can enter the Upper Realm, you have a good chance of doing so.”

When he saw Han Yuanshan was still trying to persuade him, Lu Yuan continued to refuse, “Master, I know myself well. My current cultivation speed has a lot to do with my expertise in pill refinement. It also has to do with the fact that the Foundation Establishment Stage isn’t difficult to cultivate. However, pills are not of much help to core formation. Moreover, 1 have more than six spiritual roots now. It’s basically impossible for me to form my core.”

Han Yuanshan was stunned for a moment. Then, he remembered that his disciple had chosen to cultivate multiple spiritual roots.

This choice would undoubtedly increase the difficulty of his breakthrough to the Core Formation Stage.

It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that Lu Yuan had no hope of reaching the Core Formation Stage in his lifetime.

After all, Han Yuanshan had only seen one Core Formation Stage cultivator with more than six spiritual roots in the history of the sect.

The person who did this was their Qingyun Sect’s founding patriarch, the Exalted Celestial Qingyun.

Although Lu Yuan’s talent was not bad, there was undoubtedly a huge gap between him and the Exalted Celestial Qingyun.

Thinking of this, Han Yuanshan could only say regretfully, “Alright. You can decide on your own. If you don’t want to participate in this Path for Immortal Ascension, then you can stay in this courtyard and be at ease.”

He added, “For this period of time, many cultivators will appear in the imperial capital. There are also quite a few Core Formation evil cultivators. However, you don’t have to worry about them harming you. If they dare to attack you in the imperial capital, they will lose the opportunity to participate in the Path for Immortal Ascension. Almost every cultivator who comes here is pursuing this opportunity to ascend to the Upper Realm. They definitely won’t let this opportunity slip away.”

Lu Yuan nodded and replied, “1 understand.”

Han Yuanshan waved his hand in dismissal and said, “Alright, that’s all 1 have to say to you. Wait for 20 years. Then, you can leave the Full Moon Mountain Range with the other disciples who failed. Meanwhile, you should focus on cultivating.”

“Yes, Master.”

After saying this, Lu Yuan left the room.

Bai Dafei, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, came up to him when he emerged.

“Junior Brother, what did Master say to you?”

Lu Yuan smiled and said, “Nothing much. He just wanted me to participate in the Path for Immortal Ascension, but 1 turned him down.”

Bai Dafei did not seem to be too surprised when he heard that Lu Yuan refused to participate in the Path for Immortal Ascension.

After all, he knew his junior brother’s personality well.

Lu Yuan was as stable as a rock.

However, just because Lu Yuan wasn’t participating didn’t mean others wouldn’t.

At the very least, Bai Dafei, whose strength had greatly improved, felt that he had a high chance of passing the tests.

Lu Yuan also saw through Bai Dafei’s inner thoughts.

Lu Yuan felt that Bai Dafei’s participation in the Path for Immortal Ascension would be a great opportunity for him.

Similarly, this would also be a good opportunity for Shan Yao and Xu Wan’er.

Moreover, although Lu Yuan did not know the details of the Path for Immortal Ascension, he felt that one of the criteria the sects from the Upper Realm used to select disciples should be related to the luck of the candidates.

Bai Dafei, Shan Yao, and Xu Wan’er were all people with great luck.

If they were to participate in the Path for Immortal Ascension, they would most likely be able to pass.

After bidding farewell to Bai Dafei, Lu Yuan brought Shan Yao and Xu Wan’er to the small courtyard that he had been allocated.

The courtyard looked small on the outside, but it was surprisingly big inside.

Lu Yuan noticed that there were many arrays arranged in the courtyard.

It was obvious that arrays had been set up here to emulate the conditions of a grotto-heaven.

After Lu Yuan made arrangements for Xu Wan’er and Shan Yao, he went to his room alone.

After entering the room, Lu Yuan began to organize what he had gained during this period of time.

[Name: Lu Yuan]

[Cultivation: Core Formation Stage Second Level]

[Physical Body: Two Apertures of the True Martial Realm]

[Divine Soul Grade: Early stage of Real Realm]

[Golden Core Grade: Heaven Grade]

[Luck: 20,000]

[Cultivation Technique:…]

It had been five years since he broke through to the Core Formation Stage.

In these five years, aside from consolidating his cultivation, Lu Yuan had also been absorbing all the Blood Qi Pills and Divine Soul Pills that he had collected previously.

Bi Fang, Hook Snake, bone dragon and Fu Jiu were four of the best Core Formation Stage cultivators. Their Divine Soul Pills and Blood Qi Pills were naturally extraordinary.

Among them, the Bone Dragon’s Divine Soul Pill had the most obvious effect on Lu Yuan.

Although Divine Soul Pills and Blood Qi Pills did not provide any obvious help to one’s cultivation, Lu Yuan’s cultivation speed naturally increased after his divine soul became stronger.

Thus, Lu Yuan was able to increase his cultivation by one level and increase his physical body’s strength by one aperture in a short span of five years.

Furthermore, his improvement was based on the fact that his golden core had nine spiritual roots and was formed through the way of the heavens.

If outsiders knew about Lu Yuan’s progress, they would definitely be speechless.

If one didn’t consider his cultivation and only took into account his divine soul, the current grade of Lu Yuan’s divine soul was already comparable to that of some weaker Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

Other than the huge increase in his cultivation, Lu Yuan did not forget to cultivate his cultivation techniques and divine abilities.

Unfortunately, due to not having made a breakthrough in the Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique, his core skill had not been developed further.

A minor skill which Lu Yuan had not put much effort in had instead brought him a huge surprise in the past few years.

[Divine Soul Paper Binding Technique]

[Effect: By using this divine ability, a Paper Man with a unique divine soul can be created. The strength of the Paper Man is related to the strength of the soul and the array when it is created.]

The Divine Soul Paper Binding Technique was a skill that Lu Yuan had secretly learned from Shen Xuan from the Gates of Hell.

Actually, Lu Yuan had merely been inspired by the other party. He combined it with his own elementary skills to replicate a skill similar to that of the other party.

After all, the keys to making Paper Men were actually the use of one’s divine soul and the control over one’s spiritual energy. After all, making Paper Men was a very delicate job.

These were two of Lu Yuan’s strengths.

To Lu Yuan, the most powerful aspect of his Divine Soul Paper Binding Technique was not the strength of the Paper Men itself but rather the fact that he could combine them with his system.

For example, he could use the system’s detection ability through the Paper Men.

Lu Yuan had already used this method when dealing with Hook Snake and the others. It was very useful.

And now, he wanted to make use of this again.

As he waved his hand, a large number of Paper Men flew out of his storage bag.

After the hundreds of Paper Men appeared, they started chattering and shouting.

“Scout No. 1 Paper Man, ready!”

“This is the Paper Man Plaza!”

“I am proficient in scouting and troop deployment. You have no chance.”

“I will go wherever I am needed.”

“What are you barking at?”

Lu Yuan was stunned when he saw that the Paper Men were in a mess the moment they came out.

This was the first time he released the enhanced Paper Men.

He had somewhat underestimated the liveliness of the Paper Men after their intelligence had been upgraded.

Even their way of speaking seemed to be mimicking his own.

He suddenly began to doubt whether these paper people could complete his mission of conducting a population survey of the entire city.

Were they truly reliable?
