Chapter 687 The More and More Worried Nangong Jing

After resting for a moment, the coldness in Lu Ze’s soul slowly receded. He then panted and threw the blanket on the side. He thought he was going to freeze to death.

He couldn’t even use fire god art on himself to warm his body up.

Lu Ze closed his eyes and went into the mental force dimension.

He surveyed the loot from the possum overlord and decided on the crystal pine cone.

He didn’t know what it did, but since it was flickering with lightning, it was probably related to the lightning god art.

Lu Ze took it out. He gulped some saliva and wondered whether it was tasty.

Right after, he attempted to bite it. The pine cone was very crisp. It melted in his mouth and turned into a gust of energy.

At the same time, lightning explosions sounded in his mind. He found that he could sense the arcanum of lightning god art in the universe.

His lightning god art started to grow stronger under its influence.

This…

Lu Ze’s eyes widened. He quickly ate the entire pine cone. Before he could have enough time to enjoy the taste, he quickly used an overlord purple orb.

Immediately, Lu Ze’s mind cleared up. The lightning god art arcanum, which he could subtly sense, became comprehensible too.

Simultaneously, he drew in that lightning divine art rune. It was like the heritage crystal but was much more effective.

This lightning divine art rune was of the same caliber as the Earth Shield and golden needle divine art.

Before, he used a few days to learn the Earth Shield and golden needle with the level-8 mortal evolution state overlord purple orb.

But now, after using the purple pine cone, the secrets of the divine art became very discernable.

Lu Ze constantly devoured the knowledge from the rune.

Two hours later, he reached beginner mastery.

Six hours later, he reached familiar mastery.

Twenty hours later, he reached experienced mastery. Despite this, the effects of the pine cone still hadn’t disappeared. Lu Ze was still immersed in the secrets of the lightning divine art.

In the living room, Nangong Jing and the others were sitting on the couch while looking at Lu Ze’s door.

Lu Li remarked, “That guy is immersed in solitary cultivation again.” He didn’t leave his room the entire day.

Nangong Jing commented, “Huh, this guy is probably progressing again. Who can stand up to this speed? I feel like I won’t be able to suppress him for long.”

She was sipping wine leisurely, but she was actually distraught inside. Lin Ling asked, “Do I have no hopes of surpassing this guy?” Lu Li questioned as well, “Who gave you the confidence of thinking you can surpass Lu Ze?”

Sister Lin Ling was probably still dreaming.

Lin Ling smiled. “People need a dream.”

Qiuyue Hesha looked at Lin Ling and Lu Li. Her eyes seemed like she wanted to start trouble. “By the way, you guys all know what little brother Lu Ze meant before, right? What do you think?”

Everyone stopped breathing.

The atmosphere tensed up.

Alice looked around and squirmed into a ball.

She started the situation before. She didn’t want the others to gang-up on her.

Lu Li bit her lips. She was clearly the first, but now, she had to compete with four other girls.

Lu Ze, that bastard, dares to covet them all!

She would tell her parents when she got back.

Nangong Jing almost spat her wine out. Lin Ling didn’t know what she was feeling. Angry? Feeling bad? Annoyed?

All of it.

Qiuyue Hesha narrowed her eyes and said nothing

Ying Ying sensed this change in atmosphere and looked around. She was confused, but she went back to watching her screen. She didn’t know what was going on. She didn’t dare to ask either.

Three days later, Lu Ze slowly opened his eyes. Blood lightning crackled around him. Soon, the lightning receded, and his eyes flashed with excitement.

The lightning divine art was at perfection mastery!

It was just one crystal pine cone, and with only four days, his lightning divine art reached perfection mastery from beginner mastery!

Now, his speed should be able to reach level-4 planetary state.

During the battle, the lightning divine art would be more effective if space was restricted.

This joy came so quickly that Lu Ze ended up dazed.

Now, his weakest aspect, speed, became his strongest one.

Lu Ze toned down his excitement. He was a prodigy. How could he be so agitated?

Lu Ze coughed and suppressed his joy. He got off the bed and stretched out. He had sat for five days. Lu Ze felt his body was stiff.

Unlike other mortal evolution states, Lu Ze rarely went into solitary cultivation. It was very normal for mortal evolution states to go into solitary cultivation for a few months, but Lu Ze had only spent one month in solitary cultivation at the dao enlightenment room.

Lu Ze subsequently came out of his room.

He hadn’t eaten for a few days. He needed to get Alice to cook some good food.

As soon as he came out of the room, he was stared at by everyone on the couch.

Lu Ze asked in confusion, “What happened?”

Nangong Jing got up and dragged Lu Ze towards the virtual reality room. “You spent five days in solitary cultivation! Let me see what progress you’ve made!”

Everyone looked at Lu Ze with anticipation.

This guy was Lu Ze after all. They knew Lu Ze too well. This guy had gone into solitary cultivation for this long. He definitely must have made some decent improvement.

Seeing how desperate Nangong Jing was, Lu Ze stopped her and rolled his eyes. “I haven’t eaten for five days. You want to spar with me as soon as I come out?”

Everyone laughed drily.

Nangong Jing said with embarrassment, “I was too curious just then. I forgot you haven’t eaten yet.”

Then, she suddenly paused. She felt something wasn’t right?

The other people looked among each other. They felt they forgot something.

Qiuyue Hesha smiled. “We’re all above mortal evolution state. Even if we don’t eat anything, it’s fine.”

Lin Ling was speechless. “So it’s fine if we don’t eat every day?”

Lu Li’s mouth twitched. “It’s all Lu Ze’s fault for cultivating this habit in everyone.”

Lu Ze rebutted, “Is Alice’s food not good? Aren’t you guys very happy every time you’re eating?”

Alice felt great. The senior was complimenting her again.

She poked out her tongue. “Senior, I’ll go cook for you.”

Then, she rushed towards the kitchen. Lu Li and Lin Ling looked at Lu Ze and then at the kitchen. Eventually, they followed after Alice.
