Chapter 556: Chapter 299: Totem World, Possessing the Totem
Simultaneously in three worlds, practicing the Celestial Demon Technique!
The difficulty in this is indeed very high.
After all, three different worlds mean having to pay attention to three avatars at the same time, requiring even greater mental effort.
Plus, the Celestial Demon Technique itself is targeted by various world consciousnesses; any slip could lead to total failure.
In such a situation, most people who practice the Celestial Demon Technique choose to do it one world at a time.
Moreover, entering other worlds with the Celestial Demon Technique means starting over, which is undoubtedly the hardest thing for anyone practicing it.
Even those with powerful cultivation find it very difficult.
However, such difficulties aren’t too much of a concern for Lu Sheng.
"I have the system panel; even if I need to change to different cultivation systems, it doesn’t make much difference to me."
"As long as I have enough cultivation resources, I can continue practicing in an orderly fashion."
"As for the distraction..."
"The other two worlds are similar to the Martial God World; their world consciousness isn’t that strong. At the early Tier Seven stage, I easily shook the Martial God World and left my mark."
"Now, at the later Tier Seven stage, there’s no reason I can’t conquer those two Tier Six worlds."
Lu Sheng thought, then took a deep breath, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.
"Let’s do it! If I can gain something from all three worlds... I can at least cultivate to the Tier Seven Peak, and then I’ll be able to start breaking through to Tier Eight!"
"The risk isn’t that big. Even if the other two Tier Six worlds fail, there’s still one Tier Seven world as a fallback, which can bring me considerable advancement."
Thinking this, Lu Sheng had already made up his mind.
"Most of the focus will be on the Tier Seven world; as for the other two Tier Six worlds, I’ll do my best!"
Lu Sheng said, then slowly closed his eyes, and his consciousness began to disperse.
...
Most of Lu Sheng’s consciousness appeared on the Martial God Blood Stone that had descended into the Tier Seven world.
The Martial God Blood Stone has very strong deceptive power.
Plus, Lu Sheng had already been to the Beast Realm, a Tier Seven world, so he seemed even more experienced entering this Tier Seven world.
Lu Sheng tried his best to hide his aura, making himself look like something without any life presence.
The Martial God Blood Stone instantly entered this Tier Seven world, tracing a blood-stained mark in the sky, firmly gazing in a particular direction.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lu Sheng immediately unleashed his perception, seizing the time to understand everything about this world.
Soon, a plethora of information poured into Lu Sheng’s mind.
In just a brief moment, Lu Sheng understood the general essence of this world.
"Totem World? Practicing Totem Power?"
Lu Sheng processed the information gathered in his mind, his eyebrows slightly arched.
Indeed, the cultivation system in this world differs greatly from the other worlds Lu Sheng has seen or understood.
In this world, there are numerous forces, as well as clan families.
These clans and families all worship a totem; their source of strength comes from these totems.
By sacrificing to the totem, they gain more power from the totem to strengthen themselves.
The stronger the totem, the more potent the family who worships it becomes.
And in this world, there are even Tier Seven totems!
"Totem World, huh..."
"Interesting!"
Lu Sheng blinked.
This Totem World, at first glance, seems somewhat similar to the Martial God World. After all, one practices Totem Power and the other Divine Power.
But the former draws power from the totem, while the latter strengthens innate divinity through personal cultivation.
If the Totem World is compared to the Beast Realm Lu Sheng entered before...
Then totems are more akin to rulers of territories, while those practicing Totem Power are like the exotic beast army under their command.
However, the Giant Beast Kings in the Beast Realm have terrifying battle power.
But in the Totem World, totems are more like sources providing endless power to Totem Cultivators.
This is what Lu Sheng has learned so far.
As for more information, Lu Sheng had no time to gather because... at this moment, he was discovered by the world consciousness of the Totem World.
Boom!!!
On the clear sky, endless dark clouds suddenly converged, appearing abruptly, with lightning rolling within the clouds.
Emitting terrifying world-ending aura, it suddenly struck towards the location where Lu Sheng was.
To erase Lu Sheng, who has transformed into the Martial God Blood Stone, completely.
Lu Sheng, helpless, could only unleash all the power within the Martial God Blood Stone, resisting the force of world consciousness while accelerating his escape toward the surface of the Totem World.
According to Lu Sheng’s experience, as long as the Martial God Blood Stone falls into the world’s surface, completely integrates into an object or even into a creature, it will temporarily block the perception of world consciousness.
Thus, gaining the time to develop.
...
In the Totem World, within a forest.
A ragged youth, already covered by a thick shroud of blood, his entire aura incredibly dispirited.
The youth’s face was pale, as if he was on the brink of dying.
The light in his eyes was equally dim.
Yet, he was clutching a broken totem fragment, trudging desperately toward the depths of the forest.
And thousands of meters behind him, numerous black-clad figures were frantically chasing in the youth’s direction.
"Quick! Don’t let any of the Yang Family escape!"
A black-clad man resembling a leader spoke in a low tone, his words filled with murderous intent.
"Today... I want to utterly obliterate the Yang Family in Blue Jade City!"
"I want the Yang Family to become history!"
The black-clad leader said darkly.
All around, other black-clad figures heard the leader’s command and accelerated their pace, rushing in the youth’s direction.
Perhaps because of his injuries, the youth’s strength began to falter; his staggered steps became even more disorderly at that moment.
The youth’s gaze was fixed on the depths of the forest, with a blazing desire for survival in his eyes, yet the shadowy figures of the black-clad pursuers were already visible in the distance.
"Found him!!"
A black-clad figure spotted the youth and immediately shouted out.
Hearing this voice, the youth’s heart sank within him.
The light of survival in his eyes gradually faded, replaced by a hint of hopelessness.
"Is there truly no hope left?"
The youth’s expression turned extremely bitter.
Yet, despite this, he continued to run toward the depths of the forest, even as his body seemed to stagger dramatically, never releasing the totem fragment in his arms.
That broken totem fragment seemed to be his everything.
Even at the cost of his life, he wouldn’t abandon that shattered totem.
But precisely because of this, carrying the broken totem added great difficulty to his escape, already heavily injured, how could he match the speed of the black-clad pursuers in their prime?
In just a few breaths, the black-clad pursuers caught up with the youth’s steps.
"You Yang Family runt... Today is the day you die!!"
"From now on, the Yang Family will be completely erased from Blue Jade City!!"
The black-clad man sneered, slashing down at the youth with his long blade, containing an extremely terrifying power.
Just the gale stirred by the blade was enough to evoke a desperate look on the youth’s face.
"Is my life truly destined to end here!"
He felt a pang of bitterness in his heart, sensing the fierce blade wind, and he couldn’t help but close his eyes. Only when he closed them did the entire scene of his family’s destruction unfold in his mind.
The anguished cries of his kin, parents who died miserably protecting him from their enemies’ clutches.
Filled the youth’s mind with despair.
Yet, just at this moment, as the black-clad man’s blade was about to strike the youth, a scarlet light suddenly cleaved the sky from above.
It landed precisely behind the youth.
Instantly, a mighty power exploded behind the youth, swallowing the figure of the black-clad man, and even heavily injuring the youth, hurling him straight toward the depths of the forest.
In a moment, a massive crater was left on the ground.
"Huh? What’s going on?"
Lu Sheng stared at the scene with some confusion.
"Forget it, the most important thing now is to possess something..."
Lu Sheng’s perception exploded, instantly sensing the youth who had been thrown.
"Hmm? Still alive? The thing he’s holding... is this world’s totem?"
Lu Sheng considered for a moment and, sensing the malice from world consciousness approaching relentlessly, without hesitation, transformed into a red light and plunged into the broken totem in the youth’s arms.
At the moment of entering the totem, Lu Sheng could feel the world’s malice suddenly disappearing.
