Chapter 87

"Dao Gu Senior, Dao Gu Senior..." Lu Tianyu's divine consciousness entered his inner vision, and he began to use his mental connection to summon the spirit of the Pangu Heavenly Book, Dao Gu.

But after calling out several times, there was no response; Dao Gu Senior remained in a deep sleep.

Lu Tianyu couldn't help but frown slightly. It seemed that the last time Dao Gu Senior had helped him, the energy consumption was too great, causing him to remain in a coma.

After a moment of thought, Lu Tianyu's heart stirred, and he placed his right hand on the ten-thousand-year-old Five Elements Spirit Branch, slowly channeling a thread of battle qi into it.

"Whoosh!" The ten-thousand-year-old Five Elements Spirit Branch immediately emitted a ten-thousand-foot-long five-colored divine light. Threads of qi containing the attributes of the Five Elements gradually drifted about, and a portion of it rapidly drilled into Lu Tianyu's眉心 (third eye) at a visible speed.

"Uh... What is this?" Soon, a sudden exclamation echoed in Lu Tianyu's consciousness.

"Haha, Dao Gu Senior, you're awake?" Hearing this long-missed familiar voice, Lu Tianyu couldn't help but be overjoyed. It seemed that his method was correct, and after absorbing a portion of the Five Elements qi from the ten-thousand-year-old Five Elements Spirit Branch, Dao Gu Senior had indeed awakened from his coma.

"Dao Gu Senior, this is the ten-thousand-year-old Five Elements Spirit Branch I found for you. Absorb it quickly." Lu Tianyu immediately said happily.

"Yes, Little Yu, the Five Elements heavenly treasures you brought this time are indeed quite excellent." Dao Gu's voice was filled with wild joy. As he spoke, he swiftly emerged from Lu Tianyu's third eye, transforming into a massive five-colored vortex that sucked in all the Five Elements qi in the air.

"Boom!" With a deafening explosion, the large section of the ten-thousand-year-old Five Elements Spirit Branch in Lu Tianyu's hand could no longer withstand the pressure and exploded, transforming into extremely violent Five Elements qi, all of which was sucked into the vortex.

"Haha, wait for my good news." Dao Gu's voice quickly disappeared, and along with the five-colored vortex, he vanished into Lu Tianyu's third eye.

Next, what Lu Tianyu needed to do was wait, because he couldn't interfere with the breakthrough of the third seal of the Pangu Heavenly Book; it could only be done by Dao Gu Senior himself.

Time quietly slipped by as Lu Tianyu anxiously waited.

Although Lu Tianyu already knew that the ten-thousand-year-old Five Elements Spirit Branch was a treasure of the Earth Rank, he wasn't sure if it could help Dao Gu Senior successfully break through the third seal of the Pangu Heavenly Book, so he couldn't help but feel anxious.

After all, Dao Gu Senior had said that the third seal was much stronger than the previous two.

"Boom!" About half an hour later, just as Lu Tianyu was anxiously waiting, a deafening explosion suddenly echoed in his consciousness, startling him so much that he leaped up from his chair.

"What happened?" Lu Tianyu couldn't help but ask in shock.

"Haha, Little Yu, it succeeded." Dao Gu replied with wild joy. Before Lu Tianyu could fully recover from his shock, a cultivation technique suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Nine Depths of the Netherworld, Spirit Channels Open, Life Continues Unceasingly, Three Revolutions Return to One..." This was the cultivation technique of the third layer of the Pangu Heavenly Book, still 108 characters long. However, after silently reciting it in his mind, Lu Tianyu found that the cultivation method of the third layer was much deeper and more profound than the previous two layers, making it difficult to understand in a short time.

The cultivation technique of the third layer of the Pangu Heavenly Book still contained an ultimate killing move, the second form of the Pangu Heaven-Cleaving Slash. This form, like the first, also contained 108 variations. If Little Yu could thoroughly understand and master this move, with his current strength, he would be able to defeat a warrior at the General level. However, the ten-thousand-year-old Five Elements Spirit Branch contained a vast amount of Five Elements energy, and the old man needed to enter seclusion to digest the remaining energy. You should focus on understanding it yourself. If you have any questions, you can ask me when I come out of seclusion." After a brief explanation, Dao Gu fell silent again, just as he had in the past.

"Ah, Dao Gu Senior, you're such an irresponsible master. Well, I'll have to figure it out on my own." Lu Tianyu couldn't help but sigh bitterly, knowing that with such a master, he had no choice but to rely on himself.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Tianyu slowly closed his eyes. His mind replayed the cultivation technique of the third layer, memorizing it thoroughly before beginning to ponder it word by word.

Time passed quickly, and before he knew it, it was noon the next day. During this time, Lu Tianyu had been locked in his room, deeply contemplating the cultivation technique of the third layer. Although he was exceptionally intelligent, the technique of the third layer was indeed too profound and difficult to understand. In this long period, he had only managed to comprehend the first three sentences, and his head was already aching and uncomfortable.

"Whoosh!" Taking a deep breath, Lu Tianyu quickly withdrew from his deep contemplation and returned to reality.

"Knock, knock, knock..." Just as Lu Tianyu regained his senses, he suddenly heard a series of urgent knocks on the door.

Lu Tianyu immediately leaped up from the bed, rushed to the door, and opened it.

"Brother Tianyu, I've been knocking for a long time. Why did you take so long to open the door?" Xiao Yu pouted, slightly displeased. Behind her was a maid holding a tray with several exquisite pastries.

"Hehe, sorry, Xiao Yu. I just came out of my cultivation state and didn't hear the knocking. Don't be angry." Lu Tianyu immediately explained.

"Hmph, I'll forgive you this time, but don't let it happen again. Brother Tianyu, I know you work hard, but you shouldn't neglect your health. Look at you, you're all haggard." Xiao Yu scolded, but her tone was filled with deep concern.

"Yes, I understand. Thank you, Xiao Yu." Lu Tianyu immediately thanked her sincerely.

"Hehe, Brother Tianyu, I know you haven't eaten for over a day, so I made some pastries for you. Try them and see how they taste." As she spoke, Xiao Yu immediately pulled Lu Tianyu's hand and led him into the room.

The maid followed, placing the pastries on the table. However, Lu Tianyu noticed that the maid seemed nervous, her right hand trembling slightly, almost spilling a plate of white pancakes.

"Xiao'er, what's wrong with you today? You seem distracted. Be careful, don't spill the pastries I made for Brother Tianyu." Xiao Yu immediately scolded.

"Sorry, Miss. I didn't rest well last night, so I'm not in good spirits. Please punish me, Miss." The maid quickly arranged the pancakes and knelt down, trembling.

"Never mind, you can go." Xiao Yu, being kind-hearted, wouldn't easily punish her maids, so she waved her hand and dismissed Xiao'er.

"Thank you, Miss. I'll take my leave." Xiao'er immediately stood up, still keeping her head down, and backed out of the room, closing the door behind her.

As she closed the door, Xiao'er casually waved her hand, emitting a faint thread of battle qi to set up a simple soundproofing barrier on the door.

"Try them, Brother Tianyu. I made them myself." With only the two of them left in the room, Xiao Yu smiled and said.

"Sure." Seeing Xiao Yu's heartfelt effort, Lu Tianyu immediately nodded and picked up his chopsticks, taking a piece of the white pancake and putting it in his mouth.

The pancake melted in his mouth, filling it with a fragrant aroma, making Lu Tianyu's appetite surge, and he quickly swallowed the delicious pancake.

"How is it? Brother Tianyu, do you like the pastries I made?" Although she already knew her pastries were delicious, Xiao Yu still looked at Lu Tianyu expectantly, hoping for his evaluation.

"Great! Very great!" Lu Tianyu immediately smiled and gave a thumbs up.

"Hehe, since you like them, have more." Xiao Yu beamed and quickly picked up another pair of chopsticks, taking another piece of pancake and feeding it to Lu Tianyu.

"Uh... Xiao Yu, I can do it myself." Lu Tianyu was embarrassed.

"Don't be shy, open your mouth." Xiao Yu pouted and quickly fed the pancake into Lu Tianyu's mouth.

"Don't just focus on me, you should eat too." Lu Tianyu swallowed the pancake and said awkwardly.

"I've already had lunch. These are all for you. You have to eat them all, or I won't make them for you again." Xiao Yu giggled and prepared to feed him another piece of pancake.

"Alright, I'll eat them all, but no need to trouble you. I'll do it myself." Lu Tianyu laughed and quickly picked up his chopsticks, eating the pastries one by one.

In less than five minutes, all the delicious pastries were gone.

After finishing the pastries, the fragrance still lingered in Lu Tianyu's mouth, making him savor the taste and even smack his lips.

Seeing Lu Tianyu's satisfied expression, Xiao Yu also smiled happily.

However, her smile quickly froze on her face as her eyes widened in shock, staring at Lu Tianyu.

She noticed that Lu Tianyu's face was rapidly turning an abnormal shade of red, as if painted with rouge, bright and glaring.

"What's wrong..." Lu Tianyu was also alarmed and asked in confusion.

But before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt an extremely powerful heat surge from his dantian, instantly reaching his consciousness.

"Boom!" Like a thunderclap, Lu Tianyu felt dizzy and disoriented, his eyes turning blood red, and his mind suddenly becoming lost, filled with intense desire.

This desire was a man's longing for a woman.

Lu Tianyu's mouth opened, and he suddenly exhaled a scorching breath. Then, like a hungry wolf that had spotted its prey, he pounced on Xiao Yu with bloodshot eyes.

"You... What are you doing?"
