.....
Yu Huai stood still, clearly stunned,
“Ha hahahahaha……”
Lu Ding took a step forward and walked out. Laughter ca from outside the door. He was still pretty polite and waited until he got outside to laugh.
Bai Hen followed after him.
At this mont, Yu Huai snapped back to his senses and grabbed the twisted sword beside him, slamming it to the ground.
“F**k!!!”
The slightly tense atmosphere was instantly broken by Yu Huai’s curse.
Yu Jun turned his head: “What did you just say!?”
Yu Huai froze, then slowly turned his head: “Didn’t… didn’t say anything, Dad.”
Losing the alt account already annoyed Yu Jun, and now even the main account had hidden layers.
Right then, thunder rumbled across the sky—wind and rain were coming.
The head of the Yu family rolled up his sleeves and got up.
Rainy day beatings—it’s not like there's anything else to do.
The alt account’s gone, might as well fix up the main account. Still usable!
After the Yu family ca the Luo family.
Not much to say—the Luo family was still relatively well-behaved.
But once they got there, soone from the Luo family said they wouldn’t fight Lu Ding, but they wanted to go against Bai Hen.
That set Bai Hen off again, and he imdiately gave Luo Ping of the Luo family a good dose of reality.
The main style?
Hurts the skin, hurts the flesh, not the bones—painful and heartbreaking.
Side kicks, flying kicks, no hits to the head—gotta protect the face.
Horizontal banner: Gentle with the ladies.
Lu Ding’s comnt: You call that being gentle with the ladies?
Flying kicks and everything……
Bai Hen explained.
“She’s not an enemy. Grandma said girls really care about their faces—they can’t get hurt. And boys need to understand the difference between genders, we can’t touch girls here, here, and here.”
Bai Hen gestured from top to bottom.
“So I didn’t even use my hands.”
If it were an enemy, Bai Hen wouldn’t have cared about any of that.
Lu Ding: ……
Your thought process is sothing else.
Honestly, might’ve been better to just use your hands.
One side kick sent her flying over ten ters—she literally whooshed through the air.
From start to finish, Lu Ding kept his hand over his mouth and never took it down.
“Are we still going to the Qu family now?”
Bai Hen asked.
Lu Ding shook his head: “No word yet. Let’s go back and cultivate.”
Two out of the top three families have been dealt with.
As for Qu Ningyan…
Lu Ding didn’t plan to go after her just yet.
Director Qiu’s ssage hadn’t arrived.
Lu Ding could use this ti gap to go back, upgrade, and push for a breakthrough.
Use the natural treasures these families sent over to build the Dragon-Locking Well.
When the order to strike cos,
Upgraded Lu Ding would take out Qu Ningyan and all those Tianli Cult freaks who kept trying to gang up on him in one go—save the cleanup effort, and no wasted manpower, resources, or funds.
.....
Back at Yunng 749.
Deputy Director Qiu assigned each of them a room.
Lu Ding sat cross-legged, looking at the six spoils of war in front of him.
Five ca from the Lan family, the Zhai family, the Ruan family, the Yu family, and the Luo family. The sixth one was from Qiu himself—
a reward for killing Ruan Kong.
With six top-quality spiritual treasures laid out,
the room was instantly filled with a fragrant aroma that made the heart and soul feel refreshed.
Sadly, sothing this good only happens once.
At most, he could squeeze one more out of the Qu family.
Then there was still one more from the Golden Toad Nesting on an Egg.
But it’s fine—Lu Ding believed the advanced training facility would definitely bring lots of chances for him to get even better spiritual treasures.
He grabbed the treasure in front of him and stuffed it into his mouth.
The dicinal effects began to spread and get absorbed.
Lu Ding ford a hand seal and activated the Sin Dragon Bone Inscription.
The Sin Dragon inside him started to rampage joyfully through his ridians again.
The stalled project was finally getting back on track!
As countless particles of light rose from the Linghai Sea and gathered in the sky, they started repairing the torn-up Divine Palace.
Lu Ding’s cultivation level began to climb.
He ford another hand seal.
The particles of light split into two organized groups.
One group leveled up and filled the Divine Palace.
The other gathered to construct the Dragon-Locking Well.
Lu Ding’s hand seal was the blueprint.
It was just like magic spells in fantasy worlds—a whole string of chanting that basically ant stuff like: how many degrees east longitude, how many degrees north latitude, how strong the attack needed to be, what the target was.
But Lu Ding’s spell was more like:
How big the Dragon-Locking Well should be, whether it should be the classic model or a DIY custom version, whether to carve in any unique markings.
Hey hey hey—left side needs to be a bit higher, right side needs to align, wall surface needs leveling, watch the curve—you laid this brick crooked!!
Don’t talk to about irrelevant stuff—redo it! This must be redone!!
My eyes are the ruler!!
When he reached Divine Palace Third Layer, the Dragon-Locking Well was taking shape. At Divine Palace Fourth Layer, it was complete.
The visible part was entirely black. The space below was massive, with two chains swinging around.
The Sin Dragon in his ridians, on Lu Ding’s command, shot straight over.
Grabbed the chains and looped them around its own neck—
a natural beast of burden.
As the Sin Dragon was sealed into the Dragon-Locking Well,
Lu Ding’s aura faded again. A hidden dragon in the abyss—his spiritual energy quality improved once more, and his combat power surged.
But!
Lu Ding’s aura fading ant staying low-key, and Lu Ding was never the type to stay low-key for no reason.
With a flick of his hand seal—
BOOM！！！！
A terrifying explosion imdiately erupted from the Linghai.
Dark clouds gathered, thunder and lightning crackled, and the Shi Gandang in the Linghai released a bit of water at just the right ti.
Waves surged up like a tsunami, rising to the heavens, creating the illusion of a monstrous being breaking into the world.
The stage was fully set.
But the Sin Dragon at the bottom of the well hadn’t even settled in yet—
as spiritual energy exploded inside the Dragon-Locking Well, it got blasted right back out.
The Sin Dragon was forced to break out of the well.
The broken chains on its body rattled loudly.
The Sin Dragon was dazed: Didn’t I just lie down!!
Lu Ding’s aura and cultivation, following that blast just now, surged again. Black smoke spewed throughout the room.
At this mont, his cultivation had reached Divine Palace Fifth Layer.
Three layers in one go!!
Straight from Divine Palace Second Layer to Divine Palace Fifth Layer!!!
Combat strength skyrocketed—twice.
The reason he went up three layers was because of two explosive surges in power.
Those were from the passive boosts that ca with a rise in realm—
step by step, naturally flowing like water, with rising tide lifting all boats—that didn’t count as a power surge.
Sealing the Sin Dragon in the Dragon-Locking Well, and the Sin Dragon bursting out of it—
that’s what caused the true surge.
Now, after two massive updates and upgrades, Lu Ding was no longer the sa.
We can’t even say “no longer the sa as before”—“before” is too far back, we’re talking just monts ago.
In broad daylight,
after last night’s chaos,
rumors flew all around Yunng: under Qu Ningyan, every single genius in Yunng had either surrendered voluntarily or got beaten up at ho.
Now, the entire Prodigy Ranking in Yunng had just one na left at the top—Qu Ningyan, standing alone.
Second and third place had already been replaced with the nas Lu Ding and Bai Hen.
By afternoon,
Qu Ningyan, under imnse pressure, arrived at a high-end hotel sowhere in Yunng.
The door opened.
A person was seated by the floor-to-ceiling window, and behind them stood a man and a woman who turned to look at her.
These three—
were the main force of Tianli Cult’s operation in Yunng.
One of Tianli Cult’s Deputy Leaders: Guo Wuji.
And his subordinates—Body Pillar and Flower Pillar.
Seeing this lineup, Qu Ningyan instantly felt reassured. No matter how insanely strong Lu Ding was, he couldn’t possibly escape the grasp of the Tianli Cult.
She stepped forward and gave a slight bow: “Greetings, Deputy Leader.”
The man nodded in response.
Qu Ningyan straightened up, filled with confusion inside, but didn’t dare ask the Deputy Leader directly.
She walked over to Flower Pillar, whom she was more familiar with, and whispered,
“Why is the Deputy Leader here?”
Flower Pillar whispered back: “He’s furious about Fire Pillar’s death. And after seeing what happened to Fire Pillar, just sending us might not be enough to take Lu Ding down.”
“His combat power defies common logic.”
“Even if we send more Pillars, at best we could capture him—not kill him. And that’s assuming we don’t get picked off one by one.”
“So to play it safe, since the Deputy Leader happened to be available, he decided to co personally and crush any possibility at its root.”
Since you, Lu Ding, are cautious and bold, then we’ll be even more cautious.
You’re Divine Palace, right?
Tianli Cult is directly sending soone at the Earth Observer Realm—comparable to Qiu Si’s level.
Though technically a bit weaker than Qiu Si,
against soone at Divine Palace level, it’s more than enough.
“Judging from how Lu Ding killed Ruan Kong yesterday, his max level is sowhere around mid-tier Si Ming, and that’s with a bit of trickery.”
“Even in the worst-case scenario, if Qiu Si reacts in ti, the Deputy Leader can still hold him off.”
“Then the three of us—
will gang up on Lu Ding. Body Pillar will engage in lee to prevent him from charging up, you’ll blast him with spells, and I’ll sneak attack with secret techniques. Three on one—he’s dead for sure.”
