Chapter 1062: Purely Lu Shu
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Wei Wu Army were about 100 kilometers away from the Wanshe Plains. Lu Shu thought they would probably take about half a day to reach if they rode the horses. That was because the horses in the Luniverse were extremely fast, way faster than those on Earth.
If he did not ride a horse, he would probably reach in slightly more than an hour’s time, without going on full speed.
However, Lu Shu led the Wei Wu Army and took his time to head over while riding the horses. He was not in a rush as he wanted to know the situation at the Wanshe Plains.
Liu Yizhao had already secretly left the team to check out the situation. The Mice Army had also dispersed. The gray mice looked like spies planted amongst the Wei Wu Army. They would report everything they had heard and seen back to the Wei Wu Army.
Little Fury was collecting all the information on Lu Xiaoyu’s shoulders before reporting it to Lu Shu. Before the messengers arrived, the Black Feather Army formed a barrier with 5000 soldiers. One reason was to guard the pa.s.sageway to the Wanshe Plains from all directions, while the other reason was to look for the Wei Wu Army. Since the hors.e.m.e.n were useless, he sent the entire army to look for him.
“There are still over 10,000 people in the Wanshe Plains after some of them dispersed.” Lu Xiaoyu reported the news obtained from the Mice Army. “However, the Mice Army is unable to go too close and cannot tell if Duanmu Huangqi and his master has already arrived.”
Lu Shu said calmly after thinking, “We have to be careful. We can’t afford to mess around with the master. It will be good if we can contact the Heavenly Network to collaborate with Nie Ting. Now, we don’t even know what is happening on Earth.”
Last night when Lu Shu was troubled over this, he ran over to ask Zhang Weiyu if he could advance to the master realm. That made Zhang Weiyu speechless. “Do you think it is so easy to advance to the master realm?”
Lu Shu said, “Isn’t there something called ‘breaking and repairing’, everyone did that. If Li Heitan and the rest could speed up their training progress, why are you still stuck at this stage…”
“You make sense…” Zhang Weiyu was stunned for a while. “I almost got convinced. Can you compare someone who advanced from Rank Three to Rank Two with the advancement to the Master Realm? No way. In order to advance to the Master realm, one had to understand the laws and rules extremely well. Moreover, one had to take care of the coordination of one’s spiritual and physical energy… Actually, I am talking bulls.h.i.+t. I don’t know how to advance to the Master realm or I would have already advanced long ago…”
In reality, when Lu Shu gave the refresher fruit to Zhang Weiyu and the rest, he was hoping for one of them to advance to the Master Realm. After all, didn’t Chen Baili and Li Xianyi both reach the Master Realm?
After Zhang Weiyu and the rest finished eating the refresher fruit, their powers increased slightly. Instead of two patrons, they could fight against three patrons instead…
However, the problem was, even though the quant.i.ty changed, the quality might not have changed.
Lu Shu felt that the Imperial Palace was originally the guards of the King of G.o.ds. It was normal for one to be more powerful than the guards of the Lord of Heaven… However, why was there no master despite following the ‘breaking and repairing’ route?
However, Lu Shu neglected two points. On one hand, Zhang Weiyu had a different condition from Chen Baili and Li Xianyi.
Although their foundations were destroyed, they could continue to train. However, they were unable to make a breakthrough of the bottleneck.
It could be compared to a reservoir. It was reserving water but water kept leaking. If they wanted to retain their powers, they had to persevere and train. Training was like a s.h.i.+p advancing against the currents and stopping would result in being pushed backward.
However, Zhang Weiyu and the rest struggled. They were unable to train as the source of water for their reservoir had been disrupted. Therefore, they could not make any advancements at all.
On the other hand, it required apt.i.tude to advance to the Master Realm. One could not simply depend on the number of hours of training to advance.
Therefore, that was the reason why both Li Xianyi and Chen Baili advanced after eating the refresher fruit, but none of the people, including Zhang Weiyu, advanced to the Master Realm.
Lu Shu was slightly indignant. “You mean none of us can advance? At least give us some hope.”
Zhang Weiyu thought about it. “Now that you mention it, there is really a source of hope…”
“Who?” Lu Shu was curious. As the commander of the Imperial Palace Soldiers, Zhang Weiyu did not have faith in himself but said there was hope on someone else?
“Liu Yizhao!” affirmed Zhang Weiyu.
“Why?” Lu Shu did not understand. “When all of you advanced to Rank One, he was still at Rank Two, he managed to catch up?”
“You think that he is feeling free from being a commander?” Zhang Weiyu shook his head. “He had entered a realm of self-exploration, he only goes with his desires and does not care about the outcome. You know that as a Master, one had to find the most powerful side of oneself, turning oneself into a rule that was separated from the natural laws.”
Lu Shu was stunned. He knew how it worked too. If the master’s purpose before training was to resonate with the heaven and earth, then after reaching the Master Realm, one’s purpose was to forget about resonating with the heaven and earth and complete one’s own laws.
Liu Yizhao had an extreme stance on self-exploration. He signed the Treaty of Alliance with Lu Shu when he felt that Lu Shu was the King of G.o.ds. He took on the role of a commander as he liked it more. He did anything he wanted to do and his state of mind became simpler.
Actually, Zhang Weiyu did not mention that he managed to be so carefree because Liu Yizhao met Lu Shu.
How many ordinary people were able to do anything they wanted to do? How many people need not worry about the mindset of the public?
An ordinary middle-aged person would fear illness, death, and losing their jobs. That was because they had to consider their responsibility as an individual and as a family member. That was what was holding them back.
A pract.i.tioner too, had to worry about the danger in the outside world and one’s own aspirations. A master once said that n.o.body from a wealthy family would become a master.
That was because everyone in the wealthy family was overly concerned and worried about things, making it impossible for them to be clear of worries. One who spent efforts to make things right would never advance to the Master Realm. Meanwhile, Liu Yizhao was halfway through the advancement.
Lu Shu thought about it for a while. “I think my state of mind is very pure too, I can advance to the Master Realm easily, right?”
Zhang Weiyu was speechless. Did he seriously flatter himself like that?
Lu Xiaoyu said calmly, “Yes, you purely love money.”
“From Lu Shu’s distress, +666!”
Meanwhile, Zhang Weiyu fell silent. He suddenly recalled the Lu Shu he had known. He was extremely determined with what he wanted to do. He would kill anyone he wanted to kill and do anything to protect the people he wanted to protect.
If that was not considered a pure mindset, then n.o.body else in the world would have a pure mindset.
