Cultivating Through The Game

Chapter 252: Flesh Puppet


Lu Yu walked alone on the road down the mountain when Kui Defa caught up from behind. Seeing Lu Yu walking without any reaction, Kui Defa asked, "Junior Brother Lu, do you have something on your mind?"

Hearing Kui Defa's voice, Lu Yu noticed him behind and instinctively asked, "Senior Brother, have you ever seen anyone fix an array onto their body?"

Upon hearing this, Kui Defa pondered for a moment and said, "Engraving an array onto the body, I haven't heard of that, but I've seen something similar. Ancient tribes in the southern regions tattoo totems containing mysterious powers onto their bodies to gain totemic power."

"Totems?" Lu Yu thought of the Southern Barbarian natives he had seen; indeed, many among them had mysterious totems tattooed on their bodies. However, most were just decorative, with only a few having tattoos with real power.

Lu Yu mused: As for totems, they might be similar to the Golden Armor Spirit Array engraved on my skin, just that the array on my skin is invisible, and the totems are visible.

Perhaps there are unknown factors I can reference from totem tattoos.

Kui Defa's face lit up with excitement, saying, "Junior Brother Lu, the thing you mentioned last time, I'm almost done with it. I've now solved the most critical problem, just the manufacturing of parts remains. Do you want to come and see?"

"Uh~ no, Senior Brother, I have urgent matters now. I'll see it next time..." Lu Yu said.

"Is that so?" Kui Defa seemed a bit disappointed but soon became spirited again, saying, "Then when the mecha is made, I'll let you see my proud invention."

"Mecha?" Lu Yu's eyebrow twitched slightly. How did Kui Defa know this term?

Hearing Lu Yu's voice, Kui Defa assumed he was curious about what a mecha was, and he explained, "A mecha is the product of combining mechanical techniques and armor. That's why I call it a 'mecha'."

"It means using mechanisms to control the movement of armor."

Seeing the proud expression on Kui Defa's face, Lu Yu smiled knowingly and said, "I'm looking forward to the mecha crafted by Senior Brother."

"Rest assured! I won't let you down," Kui Defa said confidently.

The two then parted ways, Lu Yu heading towards Heaven-Breaking City while Kui Defa flew towards the direction of the Skyfire Furnace.

Lu Yu walked for a while, then flew, finding walking too slow. While flying, he inadvertently noticed his Sixth Senior Brother, Zhang Qiling, walking below on the road, and his cultivation was mysterious.

From what other senior brothers and sisters said, Lu Yu learned that almost every time there was a lecture, Zhang Qiling would attend, but his cultivation level was shockingly low.

Even now, he was only at the Qi Manipulation Stage, seemingly never having actively cultivated or leveled up through experience, relying solely on passive experience gained from attending lectures to reach this level.

Puzzling human behavior... Lu Yu couldn't understand Zhang Qiling's approach.

He also didn't know much about this senior brother, only that he stayed long-term in Heaven-Breaking City, rarely leaving the Divine Weapon Pavilion Secret Realm.

After glancing at Zhang Qiling, Lu Yu flew away, heading in the direction of the Southern Heaven Hall to find some information on the totems of the Southern Barbarian Witch Tribe and research their totemic power.

Zhang Qiling, completely unaware of Lu Yu in the sky, leisurely and unhurriedly walked on the road to Heaven-Breaking City.

Previously, he had crazily farmed experience at the Tongtian Tower, amassing over a hundred thousand Contribution Points. Although he'd spent quite a bit later on, he still had fifty or sixty thousand points left, more than enough to rent an Earth-grade cultivation room and review the totem tattoo materials of the Southern Barbarians.

Lu Yu hadn't exchanged Contribution Points at the Divine Weapon Pavilion for cultivation techniques, martial arts, spiritual weapons, spiritual treasures, and other major expenditures, so his Contribution Point consumption remained relatively low.

"I want information on the totem tattoos of the Southern Barbarian Tribe." Lu Yu connected his consciousness to the artifact spirit of the Southern Heaven Hall to help filter the required information.

Soon, the artifact spirit of the Southern Heaven Hall responded to Lu Yu's request, "Record of the Study of the Totem Tattoos of the Southern Barbarian Tribe, authored by Ye Shengnan. If required, please go to Southern Heaven Hall No. 233 for exchange. Exchange price: 8000 Contribution Points."

Lu Yu reviewed the preface of the "Record of the Study of the Totem Tattoos of the Southern Barbarian Tribe" and found it possibly helpful to him, so he decisively went to Southern Heaven Hall No. 233 and spent 8000 Contribution Points to exchange for Ye Shengnan's record.

With the materials, he entered an Earth-grade cultivation room. After careful study, he gained some understanding of the structure, formation process, and power of the Southern Barbarian totem tattoos.

According to Ye Shengnan's research, as long as one draws a totem tattoo on their body in the manner of the Barbarian Tribe, they can also obtain the power of the totem tattoo.

Ye Shengnan believed that totem tattoos are actually a variation of spiritual array tattoos, with formation methods very similar to spiritual array tattoos. Of course, Lu Yu also had some research on spiritual arrays.

Purchasing the necessary materials from the marketplace, Lu Yu drew a particularly unique totem tattoo on the back of his hand as described by Ye Shengnan.

A totem tattoo resembling a wolf's head appeared on the back of Lu Yu's left hand. When activated, the tattoo emitted a red glow, enhancing Lu Yu's strength... very weakly.

Lu Yu's strength had already far surpassed the level that the Fierce Wolf Totem could enhance. For ordinary Southern Barbarian natives, the Fierce Wolf Totem could provide significant help, allowing them to obtain greater strength than warriors of the same level.

Feeling the process of the totem tattoo exerting its power within his body, Lu Yu carefully sensed the relationship between the totem tattoo and his own body, attempting to find an opportunity for the Golden Armor Spirit Array to merge with his flesh.
