Cultivating Through The Game

Can't beat him, so there's no way to handle Lu Yu?

Lu Hongwei glanced at Lu Yu, then turned and disappeared into the corridor.

"Think you can escape?" Lu Yu quickly chased after him. Watching Lu Hongwei speeding away, Lu Yu followed closely, grabbing a lab coat from a broken laboratory and wrapping it around himself as he passed by.

After Lu Yu left, a piece of wriggling flesh crawled to the battlefield where the two had fought, found the blood droplets Lu Yu had shed, and began collecting and absorbing them. A disheveled head in the corner showed a look of surprise.

Just a single drop of blood, and it could feel Lu Yu's power.

The wriggling flesh worked even harder to find the blood droplets that had fallen from Lu Yu in the battlefield.

"Where is he trying to escape to?" Lu Yu wondered, "Could there be accomplices?"

With this thought, Lu Yu couldn't help but slow down a bit, not wanting to fall into an ambush.

Lu Hongwei arrived at the research institute's hall. Seeing him, the vigilant Gudaoji loudly asked, "Who are you?"

He didn't see any official markings on Lu Hongwei. Lu Hongwei wasn't wearing a uniform, nor did he have a badge, indicating he was an unknown entity.

Sensing Lu Yu approaching from behind, Lu Hongwei raised his hand, and a gust of spiritual power swirled in his palm. The rapidly spinning spiritual power blade shot out, curved, and headed towards the researchers behind Gudaoji.

Gudaoji's eyes narrowed, understanding that the person was an enemy, not a friend.

The spiritual power within him surged out to intercept Lu Hongwei's attack. The spiritual power he released was easily torn apart by the spiritual power blade. Desperate, he grabbed a nearby metal desk and hurled it at the spinning blade.

Powered by his spiritual energy, the metal desk blocked the spinning spiritual power blade. The desk was shredded, and the flying metal shards injured many researchers. Instruments and computers were shattered by the fragments.

"Retreat, everyone retreat, I'll hold him off!" Gudaoji shouted.

Uninjured researchers hurriedly dragged the fallen ones towards another door.

Lu Hongwei's spiritual power lifted surrounding equipment and furniture, hurling them towards the exit. Gudaoji struggled to intercept but could only block a small portion, as a large amount of debris blocked the exit. Many personnel were struck by debris and fell under the pile, their fate uncertain.

Lu Yu sensed that Lu Hongwei didn't seem to be leading him into a trap; hearing the screams ahead, he hurriedly sped up.

As Lu Yu rapidly approached, Lu Hongwei gritted his teeth, releasing a torrent of spiritual power, leaving only a portion to fend off Lu Yu's attacks. The rampaging spiritual power formed phantom images of the Great Desolation Stele, which crashed into the research hall, destroying everything and everyone inside.

Gudaoji tried his best to withstand Lu Hongwei's attack, attempting to protect the researchers, but the gap in their strength was too large. His spiritual power, significantly depleted from earlier battles, couldn't resist the Great Desolation Stele's attack.

Soon, his resistance weakened, and with the destruction of the research hall, he disappeared amidst the violent assault.

Lu Yu arrived, witnessing the tragic scene inside the hall, a surge of anger welling up inside him. These people, whom he intended to save, had perished, drawn into his and Iron Tomb's vendetta.

He felt extreme anger towards Iron Tomb's unscrupulous methods.

Lu Yu recalled who this person before him was. Seeing the tattoo on Lu Hongwei's arm, he recognized his identity and remembered the incidents in Meishan Town.

The Qi Blood within him boiled with rage, and Lu Yu's body swelled like it was being inflated. Red Qi Blood emanated from him, a layer of anger clouding his eyes.

Blood Burning Secret Technique, activate!

Lu Yu had not planned to use the Blood Burning Secret Technique in reality. Without the system's assistance, he had no experience in voluntarily stopping the technique, making it very dangerous to use in reality.

As the Qi Blood within him boiled, his height exceeded four meters, his massive fist suffused with red Qi Blood, striking towards Lu Hongwei, as if sucking the air dry with each punch.

Lu Hongwei's expression changed drastically; the power Lu Yu unleashed was far beyond his expectations, forcing him to reveal his final trump card.

A decayed black coffin blocked in front of Lu Yu's fist.

This decayed black coffin appeared to be rotting, yet it wasn't shattered by Lu Yu's punch, which blasted with five times his combat power.

Bang, bang, bang~

Lu Yu rapidly punched, the rage in his eyes growing more intense, as the Blood Burning Secret Technique gradually made him excited and out of control.

Delivering a hundred punches in a second, the palm-sized decayed black coffin started rotting faster, as if enduring each strike only increased its decay.

Lu Hongwei's face looked extremely grim as he faced the over-four-meter-tall Lu Yu. The red Qi Blood enveloped Lu Yu's body, and all he could see were the shadows of punches constantly falling on the black decayed coffin in front of him.

This life-saving artifact was given to him by the mysterious founder of Iron Tomb as a reward for his great contribution.

Watching the speed at which the coffin was decaying, he realized there was no hope of retrieving this life-saving artifact. Lu Hongwei could only reluctantly abandon it, dashing towards the passage which the researchers initially intended to escape through.

The debris that had been used to block others from escaping now became an obstacle for him.

Enveloping himself with spiritual power, Lu Hongwei bulldozed through the debris, disappearing into the passage.

Bang! The decayed coffin blocking Lu Yu finally disintegrated, turning into yellow sand and scattering in the wind. The Qi Blood flowing from Lu Yu began to diminish, and the red haze in his eyes started to fade.
