Chapter 64

"Master, didn't Lulu do a great job this time? I thought of this with great effort," Lulu said proudly.

"This... This is too surprising, isn't it?" Huang Yu felt incredulous. The thousand-year jade heart had actually merged into his dantian, becoming a part of it and causing a tremendous transformation. "Lulu, you are truly amazing."

"Of course, do you know who I am?" Lulu raised her little head and said.

...

The dantian kept evolving, continuously absorbing the power of the lightning tribulation, transforming the dantian, and continuously refining the four lightning dragons.

"Ding, congratulations, player's cultivation has increased, reaching the fourth level (perfection) of the Human Infant Realm."

"Ding, congratulations, player, the Lightning Dragon Technique has advanced to become a Heaven Rank cultivation method."

"Ding, congratulations, player's cultivation has increased, reaching the fifth level of the Human Infant Realm."

At the fifth level of the Human Infant Realm, Huang Yu was overjoyed. The lightning tribulation had disappeared, and his cultivation had reached the fifth level of the Human Infant Realm, advancing two levels at once. This was extremely delightful for Huang Yu. Of course, what most excited him was the advancement of the Lightning Dragon Technique and the Purple Extreme Sword.

The Lightning Dragon Technique had become a Heaven Rank cultivation method, and the Purple Extreme Sword had transformed into a Heaven Rank weapon. This was the greatest gain, and the adventure was worth it.

Slowly landing on the ground, Huang Yu looked at the still unconscious Gu Tian, walked over, and carried him on his back, heading outside. This small courtyard had turned into ruins. The moment the lightning tribulation was broken, the heavens descended with pure energy, most of which entered Gu Tian's body, while Huang Yu received a small portion.

This small portion of energy actually increased Huang Yu's cultivation again. Although he didn't break through, it pushed him from the initial stage of the fifth level of the Human Infant Realm to the peak of perfection. Originally, he would have needed to use spirit stones to exchange for cultivation, but now that his spirit stones were exhausted, it would be unknown how long it would take to reach the peak of perfection. Unexpectedly, there was this pleasant surprise. Moreover, due to the pure energy, Huang Yu felt that it wouldn't be long before he could break through again.

What is a genius? What is a prodigy? Huang Yu thought to himself that it must be him. He had entered the Human Infant Realm from the Qi Practitioner stage in less than half a year. Such speed, if spoken aloud, would surely be shocking.

Seeing Huang Yu carrying Gu Tian out, Gu Xin quickly approached.

"Huang Yu, how is my father?"

"He's fine. The heavenly tribulation has passed successfully. Uncle Gu is now unconscious because he is still weak after passing the heavenly tribulation. It won't be long before he recovers. Moreover, when he does, Uncle Gu's cultivation will greatly advance, becoming a true Life and Death Realm expert, a formidable figure," Huang Yu put down Gu Tian and said with a smile.

"That's great, this is really great. Huang Yu, thank you, really thank you." Gu Xin sighed in relief, her eyes filled with gratitude and deep affection.

"Do you still need to thank me? If it weren't for Uncle Gu, I might have been killed by Liu Guangming long ago. How could I have the leisurely life I have now?" Huang Yu smiled faintly and said.

Indeed, looking back, he had been too impulsive at the time. His cultivation was only at the Innate stage, far from the Spirit Realm. Moreover, Liu Guangming was not weak, being at the late stage of the Spirit Realm, possibly even the peak. Once he acted, Huang Yu wouldn't have had a chance to escape.

"I..."

"Cough, cough..."

Hearing the cough, the two quickly turned around, knowing that Gu Tian had woken up.

"Father, you're awake? How do you feel?" Gu Xin's joy was evident on her face when she saw Gu Tian wake up.

"Am I... not dead?" Gu Tian only remembered fainting from exhaustion. He never thought he would survive, as the heavenly tribulation wouldn't show mercy just because he was unconscious.

"Father, you're fine. Huang Yu saved you."

"Nephew, you... you saved me?" Hearing Gu Xin's words, Gu Tian was shocked. When he heard Huang Yu say he would take the heavenly lightning for him, he didn't believe it. He never thought Huang Yu was telling the truth, that he had saved his life and blocked the heavenly tribulation. After all, that was the sixth nine heavenly tribulation, the final heavenly tribulation, with terrifying power. Even in his prime, he couldn't have withstood it. Huang Yu, with his cultivation at the Human Infant Realm, actually withstood it? Gu Tian really wanted to dissect Huang Yu to understand how he did it. After all, even with a Heavenly Rank weapon, it would be impossible to achieve this, "I'm sorry, nephew, I... I... I shouldn't have doubted you."

No matter what, he had successfully passed the heavenly tribulation. And here, who else could have helped him pass the heavenly tribulation besides Huang Yu? So, as soon as he said those words, Gu Tian immediately retracted them.

"Uncle Gu, don't worry about it. After all, no one would believe such a thing." Huang Yu smiled and didn't mind, "I just got lucky. If it happened again, I wouldn't be able to do it. Uncle Gu, you should check your cultivation and see how it has changed."

"Right, right, right. I won't say more thanks. I'll keep it in my heart," Gu Tian nodded repeatedly. He was also eager to check his own condition to see if he had really broken through.

"Alright, Uncle Gu, focus on your cultivation and consolidation. I won't disturb you." After saying this, Huang Yu pulled Gu Xin and left the room.

...

...

Three days later.

Huang Yu had thoroughly consolidated his cultivation, and his combat power had increased more than three times compared to before.

A punch shattered the mountain rocks, and dust flew.

If this had been before, Huang Yu could have done it, but it wouldn't have been so easy.

During these three days, countless people from the Divine Stone Pavilion came and went, all to curry favor with Gu Tian. Everyone knew that Gu Tian's cultivation was extremely terrifying, having passed the sixth nine heavenly tribulation and breaking through to the Life and Death Realm.

Life and Death Realm experts were all high and mighty, formidable figures who could establish sects and become regional overlords. Even in the entire Central Yuan Kingdom, there were only a few.

Those who had enmity with Gu Tian fled to other places, not daring to return, fearing that Gu Tian would seek revenge. A Life and Death Realm expert was not someone they could resist.

After finishing his cultivation, a person walked to the door, with a graceful figure. It was none other than Gu Xin.

"Huang Yu, why are you hiding here?" Seeing Huang Yu, Gu Xin immediately walked over, pouting, still upset about Huang Yu dodging the banquet.

"Sorry, I don't really like it."

Huang Yu's cold tone made Gu Xin feel a bit wronged. She looked at Huang Yu and said, "Am I... very annoying?"

Seeing Gu Xin's tone, Huang Yu felt a headache. Gu Xin was definitely a great beauty, but he had a figure in his heart that he couldn't forget.

"That's not what I meant. You are very beautiful, but I..."

Before Huang Yu could finish, Gu Xin interrupted him, her beautiful big eyes staring at Huang Yu, "Is it because I'm not gentle enough? If that's the case, I'll change. For you, I can change anything."

"No... no, you are very good and very beautiful. This isn't your fault. If you change, you won't be you, the Gu Xin I know," Huang Yu shook his head.

"Junior Sister, Junior Sister."

A voice came from a distance.

Hearing this, Gu Xin's face changed, and she was very disgusted, "This despicable scoundrel, this hateful ghost, is back again."

Before Huang Yu could react, Gu Xin hugged his waist and clung tightly to him.

When the person burst in and saw Gu Xin hugging Huang Yu, his face turned pale, and his eyes burned with jealousy. His gaze was like a sharp blade, and if looks could kill, Huang Yu would have died many times over.

Huang Yu couldn't help but laugh bitterly. It was the same again; he was being used as a shield.

"Junior Sister, who is he?"

"Who is your Junior Sister? Wang Jing, don't get it wrong. Our Gu family has nothing to do with your Divine Jade Sect. Don't call me Junior Sister. Also, please leave. This is the Divine Stone Pavilion's territory, and you are not welcome here," Gu Xin didn't give him a good face, hating him to the extreme.

"Boy, you better let go of Junior Sister, or my anger will be something you can't handle. Who is Junior Sister? A noble lady. You, a poor boy with cultivation only at the Human Infant Realm, dare to have designs on my Junior Sister? I think you are tired of living," Wang Jing ignored Gu Xin's words and looked at Huang Yu, his eyes cold and filled with intense killing intent, threatening him.

Huang Yu was speechless. He encountered such people everywhere.

"Get lost." Without any extra words, Huang Yu coldly spat out two words. Although this guy's cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Spirit Realm, Huang Yu didn't take him seriously, especially after helping Gu Tian pass the heavenly tribulation, his cultivation had skyrocketed. With the enhancement of the Purple Extreme Sword and the Lightning Dragon Technique, Huang Yu was confident.

Unless he also had a Heaven Rank weapon, this guy was not a match.

After all, his Lightning Dragon Technique had reached the fourth level, and with the Purple Extreme Sword, using the Roaring Lightning Dragon, he could definitely contend with the late stage of the Spirit Realm. Even if he met Liu Guangming again, Huang Yu wouldn't fear him, no longer worrying about being killed. Moreover, this guy's cultivation was only at the middle stage of the Spirit Realm.

"Wang Jing, get lost, or I'll kill you." Seeing Wang Jing still shamelessly threatening Huang Yu, Gu Xin was furious and shouted at him.

"Junior Sister, Uncle Gu will eventually return to the Divine Jade Sect, and you are the princess of our Divine Jade Sect. He is just a mere mortal, of low status, how can he match you? Besides, you can protect him for a while, but not for a lifetime." Hearing Gu Xin's words, Wang Jing's jealousy rose, but he was restrained by Gu Tian's status. Now, Gu Tian had broken through to the Life and Death Realm, with a lofty position. His father, Wang Zhongshan, had repeatedly instructed him not to cause any trouble, as offending Gu Tian would be disastrous.
