Traveling through the Immortal Realm: Starting from Becoming a Top-Level Furnace Cauldron

After everyone was seated, Li Yue slowly spoke.

"My dear colleagues, I'm sure you all know that Reconnaissance Team 1 has lost contact," Li Yue said, scanning the room. "Do you have any thoughts on whether we should continue advancing or stay put nearby?"

The atmosphere in the venue reached a freezing point and no one dared to speak.

No one from the entire reconnaissance team returned, and no one knew what was happening ahead.

"I have a suggestion."

Lu Yuguan turned his head to look at the source of the voice, and the person speaking was Li Chongjiu.

"Oh? What is your opinion, His Highness the Ninth Prince?" Li Yue asked.

"I suggest we stop marching for now and continue to send soldiers to conduct reconnaissance. We'll make a decision after understanding the situation," Li Chongjiu said calmly. "After all, we know nothing about the movements of the demon cultivators. If we act rashly, we might end up in a quagmire."

"After all, no one can guarantee the lives of tens of thousands of people."

After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Bai Xiao stepped forward and added, "Commander, if the demon cultivators are truly setting an ambush ahead, then sending ordinary soldiers alone is far from enough."

"General Bai is right," Li Yue nodded in agreement. "In that case, who here is willing to organize a reconnaissance team?"

The whole place was silent, no one stepped forward. The cruelty and unpredictability of the demon cultivators filled everyone with fear.

[Host, why don't you volunteer to demonstrate? ]

"Alas, Tong-chan, you're still too young," Lu Yuguan couldn't help but shake his head and exclaimed, "This kind of thing is basically predetermined!"

"Look at Li Chongjiu, he talks so much, it's definitely a script."

"How can I steal the limelight from others?——"

[Ding! Mandatory civilization mission detected]

[Mission Details: Host, please take the initiative to undertake the reconnaissance mission and break this cowardly tranquility]

[Mission Reward: 15 Civilization Value]

[Failure Penalty: Clear Civilization Value]

"Tongzi, I'll fuck you!"

Lu Yuguan's eyes went dark and he almost fainted on the spot.

[Ding! Host swearing detected]

[Deduct 1 civilization points]

Lu Yuguan: ...

Being faced with an unreasonable system is a lifelong fate.

Zhao Zimo looked at everyone present quietly.

As the crown prince of Xin Zhao, he naturally has his own pride.

The Northern Border monks were brought along with the army this time because they had a mission to accomplish. The Northern Border team was not to do the hard work of reconnaissance.

"No one is willing to step forward?" Li Yue asked again.

"I am willing."

Lu Yuguan slowly raised his right hand and spoke to break the silence.

what?

Who is speaking?

Everyone in the tent focused their attention behind Li Chonglin.

Lu Yuguan's expression was resolute, and he said in a deep voice, "If you all are at ease, I am willing to take risks and share the commander's worries."

Zhao Zimo was stunned for a moment. He had thought about many things, but he never expected that Lu Yuguan would show up at this time.

"Yuguan, don't be so stubborn." Li Chonglin said in a low voice.

Li Chongjiu looked at Lu Yuguan with great interest. He wanted to see what ability this favorite of the prince had that made him dare to stand up.

Li Yue looked at Lu Yuguan's innocent face, frowned and said, "Nonsense, Master Lu, you can just follow the Crown Prince and don't have to take on the responsibility of scouting."

"Commander, I'm not showing off," Lu Yuguan said calmly. "General Bai just analyzed it. Since ordinary scout soldiers are useless, the only candidates are those from the Foundation Establishment stage."

Lu Yuguan's eyes were overly firm, and it seemed that there was no reason to refute.

"This matter is too strange. If you encounter difficulties, are you sure you can get out of it safely?" Li Yue asked, staring at Lu Yuguan.

The others all looked at Lu Yuguan. Although he had experienced the fight against demons with General Chen and Master Zhang, he was just a young boy no matter how you looked at him. Where did he get the courage to show off?

"Tsk, you don't know your own limitations." Mu You sneered to himself.

Zhou Zhou quickly nudged him with his elbow, "Brother Mu, shut up and don't cause any trouble."

Mu You said nonchalantly, "It's just telling the truth, what's the problem?"

In Mu You's opinion, Lu Yuguan is just like other Kyoto disciples. His so-called foundation-building cultivation is nothing more than relying on his family's resources. He is basically a paper tiger with only a superficial appearance.

"So, Brother Mu wants to take the responsibility for this matter for him?"

Zhao Zimo suddenly spoke, and the oppressive feeling coming from him was suffocating, making Mu You silent instantly.

"No, it's not that simple."

Zang Qing concentrated his spiritual power in his pupils and suddenly exerted force in the direction of Lu Yuguan.

However, the pupil technique that always worked was unable to break through Lu Yuguan's spiritual barrier no matter what.

"How could this happen?" Cang Qing couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

His illusion-breaking pupil technique can destroy all illusions and check basic cultivation information. Unless the other party's realm is far beyond his own, he will always be able to find out something.

Within the range of the pupil technique, Lu Yuguan's body was wrapped in a thick layer of emerald green spiritual power, like a ball of fog, making people trapped in it and unable to escape.

"Could it be that... this guy's realm has already approached the Golden Core stage!" Zang Qing suddenly realized.

As the voices of doubt grew more and more, Lu Yuguan simply stopped pretending.

"My fellow Taoists, if this is the method, do you have the ability to take on this responsibility?" Lu Yuguan said slowly.

He slowly raised his right hand, and a bolt of lightning containing destructive power condensed at his fingertips. Following Lu Yuguan's will, the lightning struck the table in the center of the main tent like a mad dragon.

"Thunder!——"

As soon as he finished speaking, the wooden table was struck by lightning and instantly turned into powder, which floated randomly in the tent.

"This...what kind of skill is this?"

Zang Qing couldn't help but widen his eyes. He had never seen such a domineering thunder technique.

"Thunder and lightning magic?" Zhao Zimo was also surprised.

In his impression, Lu Yuguan only had top-grade wood spiritual roots, and in several previous battles, he had only displayed wood-attributed attack methods.

But the lightning in front of him was clearly summoned by Lu Yuguan himself.

Could it be that he didn't originally have a wood spiritual root, but rather some other special spiritual root that mutated from a wood spiritual root?!

"It seems that Mr. Lu's strength is far beyond our imagination." Li Chongjiu smiled forcefully.

There was a barely perceptible gloom in Li Chongjiu's eyes. If he allowed the young man in front of him to grow up, he was afraid that he would never have the chance to compete for the throne again.

My royal brother, this chess piece is really heavy.

Li Chongjiu silently looked in the direction of Li Chonglin. The other party's expression did not change at all, as if he already knew everything.

But he had no idea that this was also the first time that Li Chonglin had witnessed Lu Yuguan's lightning magic.

"Yuguan..."

Li Zhonglin narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at Lu Yuguan and muttered to himself, "How many things are you hiding from me?"

Li Yue looked at Lu Yuguan in shock. Like other generals, they could all see the extraordinary power of thunder.

"Mr. Lu is truly a master of tactics," Li Yue couldn't help but admire. "Could you please tell everyone here what your current level of cultivation is, so that everyone can have a rough idea of your abilities?"

Lu Yuguan hummed softly, and the vast spiritual power quickly condensed along the meridians, instantly enveloping his whole body, and the shadow of the golden elixir faintly appeared in his dantian.

Everyone present could not hide their shock and took a deep breath.

"Half-step Golden Core?!"
