Only after her death did Lu Fuyue realize that she was merely cannon fodder, a 'white moonlight' in a book. In this book, Mo Qianci was the male lead of a harem immortal cultivation novel, ...
Lu Fuyue suddenly looked up at him, "Are you telling the truth?"
Lu Xing laughed, and a token, entirely black and engraved with black spiritual patterns, appeared out of thin air in his palm. "Of course it's real."
Lu Fuyue's pupils contracted slightly; it really was the Netherworld Token.
Lu Xing continued, "With your current cultivation level, the possibility of obtaining that Netherworld Token from the Underground Life and Death Arena is extremely slim. However, the one I have is different. If you do me a favor, I will give it to you, how about that?"
Lu Fuyue paused, withdrawing her gaze from the Netherworld Token, and quickly became alert.
In the cultivation world, possession and rebirth are not uncommon. Especially since the person before her shares some bloodline similar to hers. If Lu Xing were to forcibly possess her, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"What kind of help?"
Lu Xing shook his head. "Don't worry, the Lu family's ancestral precept forbids killing each other. You don't need to worry that I will attack you. Besides, if I do, you have no power to resist, so why bother?"
Lu Fuyue stood still, without saying a word.
Lu Xing's gaze fell on Lu Fuyue. "Speaking of which, I have something else for you here."
Lu Fuyue looked at him in surprise.
Lu Xing: "The cultivation technique you are practicing is probably not from the Lu family, but it is more suitable for you than our Lu family's techniques."
"The Lu family was once a prominent clan specializing in sound cultivation, and also one of the most famous cultivation families in the area. Because of their unique cultivation techniques, and the fact that sound cultivators could fight beyond their level, almost no one dared to provoke the disciples of the Lu family at that time."
A sigh rang out, "Unfortunately, for some reason, the most powerful cultivators among the family's sound cultivators could not advance any further after entering the Mahayana stage, and could only let their lifespans run out and die."
Lu Fuyue's eyes narrowed slightly, her heart filled with turmoil. It had been a long time since she had heard anything about sound cultivation.
Nowadays, there are very few sound cultivators in the cultivation world. Even if there are, they are just minor cultivators whose lineage has been broken.
She never expected that the Lu family had such a history she had never heard of before, and also, the place Lu Xing mentioned...
Lu Xing seemed to sense Lu Fuyue's confusion and sighed, "If I'm not mistaken, there are probably only a few people left in the Lu family now, aren't there?"
Lu Fuyue nodded and slowly said, "The Lu family... really doesn't have many people left now."
Of the Lu family members she knew, besides herself, only Lu Zhengming and Lu Zhengxuan remained. She had heard Uncle Law Enforcement mention that Lu Zhengming and Lu Zhengxuan were actually abandoned babies picked up from somewhere by the former sect leader of Tianxuan Sect.
The reason they were surnamed Lu was because the character "Lu" was carved on their shoulders. Therefore, Lu Fuyue knew nothing about their origins. She simply hadn't expected there to be such a connection.
Lu Xing paused, his tone becoming serious, "If one day you cultivate to the Tribulation Transcending stage, then you should know about that place. However, along with the opportunity comes more potential dangers. So, with your current cultivation level, there are some things I cannot tell you."
Lu Fuyue remained silent. Although she still possessed a trace of Lu family blood, in reality, as her cultivation level increased, the Lu family blood within her became increasingly diluted.
After a moment, she looked up at Lu Xing and asked, "In exchange for the Netherworld Token, what do you want me to do?"
A hint of nostalgia flashed in Lu Xing's eyes. "It's nothing, I just wanted to borrow your identity to spend her last few days with her."
Looking at his almost transparent figure, Lu Fuyue understood something. The reason why Lu Xing was able to exist for so long as a wisp of remnant soul was probably because of the existence of the Breath-Concealing Bell.
But now that the Breath-Concealing Bell is broken, he will naturally become weaker and weaker until he disappears into the world.
Lu Xing smiled: "But don't worry, all you need to do is give me a strand of your hair and a drop of your blood, and I can transform into your current form and stay by her side for a few days."
"It won't do you any harm."
Lu Fuyue lowered her eyes and remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "Okay."
Although what lies before him is merely a remnant soul on the verge of dissipation, its aura is by no means weak. If the other party were to forcefully attack, he could obtain both items.
Lu Fuyue raised her hand and conjured a dagger. Then, she pulled up a strand of hair and, in a swift motion, severed the hair. Next, she used the dagger to cut her fingertip, and a drop of blood immediately welled up.
A golden-red blood bead and a strand of hair flew into Lu Xing's hand. He looked down at the things in his hand, raised his hand, and made a hand seal, which was then injected into the blood bead and the hair.
The next second, the blood droplets and hair transformed into a golden light and suddenly pierced into his heart. In less than a moment, Lu Xing's body solidified and instantly transformed into Lu Fuyue's current appearance.
This was a fragment of a secret technique that he had once obtained by chance in an ancient cultivation cave. It could temporarily change one's appearance at the cost of all one's soul, thus deceiving cultivators below the Ascension stage.
Lu Xing looked up at Lu Fuyue and smiled gently, "Since you are a direct descendant of the Lu family, there are some things you should know."
After saying that, Lu Xing stretched out his palm, and a worn-out jade slip immediately appeared in his hand: "This is the insight left behind by the ancestor of our Lu family's sound cultivation lineage. It records the insights of some great sound cultivators on the way of sound cultivation, which should be of great help to you."
"There are also some sound cultivation techniques from the Lu family inside. Although they are not as good as the techniques you are currently practicing, they still have some extraordinary aspects. Perhaps with your talent, you might be able to benefit from them."
As Lu Xing spoke, he handed the jade slip to Lu Fuyue.
Lu Fuyue pursed her lips, reached out and took the jade slip. The moment she touched it, the jade slip became scorching hot, turning into a beam of spiritual light that flowed into her sea of consciousness through her fingertips.
Soon, a whole host of insights about sound editing appeared in her mind.
In a daze, a figure she couldn't quite make out appeared with its back to her. The person sat cross-legged, and with a casual pluck of the strings, mountains crumbled and the earth shook, as if the world had collapsed and only the zither remained.
An aged and steady voice struck Lu Fuyue's soul, causing her body to tremble instantly, and a profound and mysterious Dao intent appeared in her sea of consciousness.
Sound is an intangible thing. To enter the Tao through sound, one must achieve the unity of man and sound to reach the supreme state!
Lu Xing, who was standing to the side, was slightly taken aback when he saw this; he had suddenly realized something.
The direct descendants of the Lu family are indeed extraordinary. If this girl had not died young, perhaps the Lu family would have had a chance to make a comeback.
