I Hide And Farm In The World Of Cultivation To Increase My Proficiency

Chapter 194: Suck Up Well and the Heavens Will Reward You! 2

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Lu Yuan claimed, “Today, 1 have listed all these achievements without any intention of seeking merit and reward. My sole purpose is to let the heavens know my determination to eliminate demons and uphold righteousness.” [Translation: Have you seen my achievements? Quickly reward me!]

Only the squeaky wheel got the grease. Lu Yuan had never been the kind of person who did good deeds anonymously.

He was not sure if the heavens knew what he had done previously.

However, after what he did today, the heavens would definitely know.

If the elders and sect master of the Qingyun Sect were Lu Yuan’s superiors on the surface, then he considered the heavens his highest leader.

As the trump card of the heavens, Lu Yuan knew that it was not enough to just do things. He also had to learn how to make presentations.

Only with spectacular presentations could the heavens, his highest leader, understand his results.

He didn’t want the higher-ups to be unaware of all the things he had done.

This was EQ]

After his presentation ended, Lu Yuan began the core part of his worship ceremony, taking credit!

He said, “My achievements are all thanks to the heavens. 1 have always been grateful, diligent, and never slacked off.”

[Translation: 1 am flattering the heavens.]

He continued, “Although there are still demons and evil cultivators in the world today, the overall situation is still harmonious. It is because of the mercy of the heavens that the demons and evil cultivators can only hide and live in the dark, unable to cause widespread chaos in the world.”

[Translation: 1 am still flattering the heavens.]

“However, the demons and evil cultivators in the world are like weeds that can’t be eliminated. I know that this phenomenon has nothing to do with the heavens. It’s because there are very few cultivators who are as enlightened as me. Moreover, there are many cultivators who have fallen to the dark side due to temptations.”

[Translation: 1 am helping the heavens to shift the blame of why evil still exists.]

Now that he had flattered the heavens, he would begin the most important part of his ceremony.

Lu Yuan adjusted his posture and tried his best to make himself appear more devout.

He claimed, “Although 1 am just a nobody and cannot influence most of the cultivators in the world, I believe that after my cultivation increases, I can better improve the culture among the cultivators.”

“Today, 1 sincerely hope that the heavens will bless me with a smooth breakthrough!”

After saying this, Lu Yuan kowtowed three times to the altar.

This segment was specially added by Lu Yuan this time.

The reason why he did not do this previously was to increase the value of his first kowtow.

He had to let the heavens understand the importance of his breakthrough this time.

After kowtowing, Lu Yuan finally said, “The items on the altar today symbolize my ability to eliminate demons.”

“I am willing to offer up these achievements in exchange for the blessings of the heavens.”

“If I succeed in breaking through, I will definitely pay it forward in the future. I will make the demons and evil cultivators have nowhere to hide. They shall know the wrath of the heavens.”

After saying this, Lu Yuan inserted three carefully prepared ambergris on the altar.

At this point, Lu Yuan’s worship ceremony was complete.

In short, the proceedings of this worship ceremony could be roughly divided into several parts, which were summarizing his work, sucking up to the heavens, requesting for a promotion and a raise, and reporting on future career plans.

Compared to the previous process of offering sacrifices to the heavens, Lu Yuan only added two additional steps: requesting for a promotion and a raise, and reporting on future career plans.

After all, previously, his goal was only to complete the Foundation Establishment of his spiritual roots.

This was equivalent to completing a small task at work. It was significant for himself, but it didn’t have a greater impact on a larger scale.

However, today was different.

What he was facing this time was a major stage breakthrough.

It was equivalent to asking the heavens to promote him.

The impact it would have on his future and the difficulty of his breakthrough were undoubtedly incomparable to him completing the Foundation Establishment of his spiritual roots.

Therefore, it was not difficult to understand why Lu Yuan treated this worship ceremony so seriously.

After all, this breakthrough was too important to him!

Not long after Lu Yuan completed the ritual, he suddenly realized that a new notification had appeared in his system.

[Ding! Due to the influence of the heavens, the host’s success rate in the Core Formation Stage breakthrough has increased by an additional 20%.]

[Current Core Formation success rate: 35%]

Before the worship ceremony, Lu Yuan’s success rate of forming his core was only at 15%.

This success rate might not seem high, but it was significant considering that he had to achieve Core Formation with nine spiritual roots.

To be able to have a success rate of 15% was already an impressive feat for Lu Yuan’s talent.

After completing the ritual, his success rate increased by 20%.

This not only greatly increased Lu Yuan’s success rate of forming his core, but it also proved that the heavens were watching over them.

It also strengthened Lu Yuan’s resolve to be careful in the future.

However, these were matters for the future.

Right now, the most important thing for him was to complete his Core Formation through the way of the heavens.

After confirming that everything was in order, Lu Yuan no longer hesitated and decisively activated his Destined Time.

Under the effects of his luck talent, Lu Yuan’s luck had reached a shocking 200,000 points.

These 200,000 points of luck value allowed Lu Yuan’s success rate of Core Formation to reach an astonishing 55%.

However, he was not done yet. Five perfect-grade golden core creation pills appeared in his hand.

Without any hesitation, Lu Yuan consumed them.

As the pills entered his body, he felt as if his spiritual roots were enveloped by warm spring water. A warmth permeated his entire body.

[Current Core Formation success rate: 99%]

Seeing the 99% success rate, Lu Yuan knew that he could begin to break through.

Perfect Core Formation through the way of the heavens. Begin!

Lu Yuan controlled his nine spiritual roots to fuse with each other.

The essence of Core Formation was to fuse one’s spiritual roots into a golden core.

The most difficult part of this process was fusing the spiritual roots together perfectly.

Only when these spiritual roots were perfectly fused would the entire breakthrough process be considered over.

With the enhancement of the golden core creation pills and the power of the heavens, the fusion process was very smooth.

Originally, the spiritual roots were very stubborn. If he wanted to fuse them together, he would definitely need to spend a large amount of energy.

However, at this moment, the nine spiritual roots were like water. Not only were they very docile, but they also showed no resistance during the fusion process.

Before long, the nine spiritual roots were entangled together and slowly turned into a chaotic ball.

When Lu Yuan saw the embryonic form of the golden core, he became very excited.

Everything was difficult at the beginning. Since he had reached this stage, it meant that he was half way through his Core Formation process.

This was because he had completed the most crucial step to merge his spiritual roots.

The rest of the process was to continuously compress this embryonic form of the golden core.

Although this step was difficult too, it was undoubtedly much easier than the step before.

Just as Lu Yuan began to continuously compress his golden core, dark clouds began to slowly appear above the small mountain he was on.

The dark clouds were thick and covered a large area, covering a radius of dozens of miles.

People in Niu Family Village, which was 100 miles away, could also sense the commotion.

Ge Xiu looked at the dark clouds in the distance; his heart was filled with doubt.

No matter how he looked at it, these dark clouds looked like a lightning tribulation!

This was strange. He clearly remembered that there were no Core Formation Stage demons near Niu Family Village.

Then, who was causing this lightning tribulation?

Although he was a little curious about the origin of this lightning tribulation, he didn’t want to meddle in other people’s business. In the end, village chief Ge Xiu didn’t leave the village.

After the thunderclouds appeared, they lasted for a full three months.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan had cleared the demons within 100 miles in advance.

Otherwise, such a commotion might have attracted some bold demons.

100 days after Lu Yuan began to form his core…

Boom!

The thunderclouds that had been silent for a long time suddenly began to glow with lightning.

On the mountain peak below, a figure appeared.

Lu Yuan looked at the lightning tribulation above his head. He seemed calm.

He thought, “This is fine. The thunderclouds are just a small matter. Is this a lightning tribulation? This is the heavens’ test for me!”

With this thought in mind, Lu Yuan began the final step of his breakthrough, crossing the tribulation!
