'Otherwise, it's impossible for Lu Rui to know about the existence of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu! He wouldn't have guessed that I might be the third reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu! '
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
'Whoosh! '
Suddenly, the sound of wind whistling entered his ears. Duan Lingtian could not help but raise his head to look.
He saw a drop of blood shooting up into the sky, passing through the main hall and disappearing before his eyes in just a blink of an eye.
At the same time, a voice entered his ears.
"I, Lu Rui, swear on my own blood that if I do anything that's detrimental to the third reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, I'll be struck to death by the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation!"
It was Lu Rui who swore on the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Nine claps of thunder resonated in response to Lu Rui's oath.
"Clan Leader, what are you doing?"
Duan Lingtian was stunned.
Could it be that Lu Rui had confirmed that he was the third reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu?
That was not right.
He had been very careful from the beginning until the end. He was sure he did not reveal any flaws.
"It's nothing … I just wanted to prove something. However, I don't think you're the person I thought you were. "
Lu Rui shook his head in response to Duan Lingtian's question.
The reason he made such an oath was because he still had hope in his heart. He wanted to verify if Duan Lingtian was the third reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu.
Even if he was not, he had already done what he had to do. He would not have any regrets.
"How do you know I'm not?"
However, Duan Lingtian asked as soon as Lu Rui finished speaking.
"Huh?"
Lu Rui was stunned at first. Then, his eyes lit up, and his breathing quickened again. "Elder Duan … Y-You mean … You're really the Reincarnation Emperor Wu?"
"You can say that."
Duan Lingtian nodded indifferently. "As long as I, who reincarnated through the Three Lives Rebirth Technique, cultivate to the Emperor Wu Realm again and ascend to the peak of Cloud Continent, then I'll have the qualifications to be called the Reincarnation Emperor Wu."
Three Lives Reincarnation Technique!
When Lu Rui heard Duan Lingtian mention the Three Lives Reincarnation Technique, he no longer doubted Duan Lingtian's identity. He was sure that Duan Lingtian was the reincarnation of Emperor Wu's third life.
After 10,000 years, the number of people on Cloud Continent who knew about Reincarnation Emperor Wu was as few as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.
Not to mention the person who could tell the cultivation method of Samsara Emperor Wu.
If he hadn't read the letter left behind by the ancestor of the Lu Clan, he wouldn't have known about the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, let alone the cultivation method that the Reincarnation Emperor Wu practiced. He also wouldn't have known that the cultivation method required three reincarnations to master.
"Lu Rui greets Senior! I hope Senior can forgive my rudeness for not knowing Senior's identity. "
Lu Rui tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart and bowed at Duan Lingtian.
"Just call me 'Elder Duan' like you used to."
Duan Lingtian said indifferently.
"Yes."
After finding out that Duan Ling Tian was the third reincarnation of the Rebirth Martial Emperor, Lu Rui obeyed Duan Ling Tian's every word. He did not dare to hesitate or slack at all.
This was because he knew this was a future Emperor Wu powerhouse!
As long as he served this young man well, the Lu Clan would be protected by an Emperor Wu powerhouse in the future. Perhaps, he might even be able to obtain some other benefits.
As the Clan Leader of Lu Clan, he was far-sighted.
"Also … Do many people in the Lu Clan know about Reincarnation Emperor Wu?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Not many."
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's question, Lu Rui quickly replied, "It's about your past … Elder Duan. Our Lu Clan's Old Ancestor, Lu Zheng, has recorded everything in a handbook. Only the Clan Leader of Lu Clan has the right to read it."
"Alright."
Duan Lingtian nodded and warned, "It's enough for you to know my identity … Don't tell anyone else."
"Yes."
Lu Rui replied respectfully.
"Also, I have something that I need your help with."
Duan Lingtian remembered the matter that he wanted to talk to Lu Rui about earlier so he went straight to the point.
"Please speak, Elder Duan! As long as it's something that the Lu Clan and I can do, the Lu Clan and I will not hesitate to go through water and tread on fire! "
Lu Rui said solemnly.
Judging from his attitude, he would not even frown even if he was asked to climb a mountain of swords or dive into a sea of fire.
"You don't have to go through water and tread on fire."
Duan Lingtian looked at Lu Rui and asked, "Your Lu Clan should have a Profound Assimilation Formation, right?"
"Yes."
Lu Rui nodded.
"That's good then."
Duan Lingtian's eyes gleamed as he said bluntly, "I need you to activate the Profound Assimilation Formation with a large amount of Concept Fragments. I need to elevate my Concept through it!"
"No problem!"
Lu Rui responded immediately without any hesitation.
Concept Fragments were nothing to a second-rate force like the Lu Clan that was close to a first-rate force. They could get as many as they wanted.
Moreover, as long as the Lu Clan's disciples were talented in Martial Dao and had a shocking comprehension ability, they would be able to elevate their Concept through the Profound Assimilation Formation.
"Also, I need some spirit fruits … As long as it's a spirit fruit that a Void Stage martial artist can consume, I want it."
Duan Lingtian continued.
"Void Stage?"
Lu Rui was stunned for a moment before he reminded him, "Elder Duan, the Void Stage is divided into …"
"I know that the Void Stage is divided into four levels … What I need are spirit fruits that can be consumed by Void Prying Stage, Void Initiation Stage, Void Interpretation Stage, and Void Transformation Stage martial artists."
Duan Lingtian interrupted Lu Rui's words and said, "I only need one spirit fruit for each of the Void Prying Stage, Void Initiation Stage, and Void Interpretation Stage martial artists … As for the spirit fruits for Void Transformation Stage martial artists, I want as many as you have!"
He wanted the spirit fruits for Void Prying Stage, Void Initiation Stage, and Void Interpretation Stage martial artists to consume for Xiong Quan.
He wanted the spirit fruits for Void Transformation Stage martial artists to consume for himself and Feng Tianwu.
Of course, Xiong Quan who had elevated his cultivation base to the Void Transformation Stage would be able to use it soon as well.
Xiong Quan had already comprehended the Advanced Sword Concept. As long as he had enough spirit fruits, he would be able to break through to the Void Transformation Stage in a short time and become a Void Transformation Stage martial artist.
"Yes."
Although Lu Rui did not know why Duan Lingtian wanted those low-grade spirit fruits, he still agreed to it.
Put aside the fact that Duan Lingtian was the third reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, even if he was not, he would not reject Duan Lingtian's request with Duan Lingtian's medicine refining skills.
"Go and prepare … Also, don't forget about the Soul Stabilizing Herb."
Duan Lingtian said again.
"Understood."
Lu Rui replied respectfully and turned to leave.
Duan Lingtian's eyes gleamed as he looked at Lu Rui's departing figure. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "This identity of the third reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu is quite useful."
He knew that even if he did not pretend to be the third reincarnation of the Reincarnation Emperor Wu, Lu Rui would not reject his request.
However, if that was the case, Lu Rui would definitely not be as attentive as he was now.
"Right now, in Lu Rui's eyes, I'm the future Emperor Wu powerhouse … If he fawns over me, not only will his Lu Clan be protected by me in the future, but he'll also be able to obtain many benefits."
It was not difficult for Duan Lingtian to guess Lu Rui's thoughts.
This was because he would think the same way if he were in Lu Rui's shoes.
Who would not want to fawn over a powerhouse like the Emperor Wu?
One had to admit that Lu Rui was very efficient. It only took him an hour before he came again.
"Elder Duan, these are the spirit fruits that our Lu Clan currently has … They're mainly for the Void Prying Stage, Void Initiation Stage, and Void Interpretation Stage martial artists. There's only one spirit fruit for the Void Transformation Stage martial artists.
Also, I plan to issue a bounty for the spirit fruits that Void Transformation Stage martial artists consume. "
Lu Rui said respectfully to Duan Lingtian. At the same time, he handed over an ownerless Spatial Ring.
"A bounty? That's not bad. "
Duan Lingtian took the Spatial Ring and nodded. He then asked, "What are you going to use as a bounty for the spirit fruits that Void Transformation Stage martial artists consume? You must know that those spirit fruits are very valuable. "
The higher the grade of the spirit fruit, the more valuable it was.
The spirit fruits consumed by the Void Transformation Stage martial artists were even more valuable.
"I'm going to use the grade one Life Recovery Pill that you refined as the bounty reward … With the purity of the grade one Life Recovery Pill that you refined, the medicinal effect is so shocking that it's enough to make everyone kill for it."
Lu Rui revealed his plan. "However, I might need you to refine more grade one Life Recovery Pills in the future."
"That's not a problem."
Duan Lingtian was very optimistic about Lu Rui's plan.
There was no doubt that a grade one Life Recovery Pill was something that every martial artist needed. During a critical moment, it might become a life-saving talisman that could save a martial artist's life.
Especially the grade one Life Recovery Pill that he refined that had a purity of more than 90%. Its medicinal effect was a few times stronger than an ordinary grade one Life Recovery Pill!
Such a medicinal effect might not be as good as reviving a dead person or regrowing flesh and bones, but it was not too far off.
"Elder Duan, when do you plan to enter the Profound Assimilation Formation? I've already prepared all the Concept Fragments that the Profound Assimilation Formation needs. "
Lu Rui asked again.
"Alright."
Duan Lingtian nodded and performed the Blood Ownership Claim on the Spatial Ring that Lu Rui gave him earlier. Soon after, he saw the spirit fruit that was consumed by the Void Transformation Stage martial artists in the Spatial Ring.
He had never consumed this spirit fruit before so he did not have to worry about its medicinal effect decreasing.
"I plan to consume the spirit fruit to cultivate first … I'll look for you to enter the Profound Assimilation Formation after I've finished cultivating."
Duan Lingtian told him his plan.
Of course, part of the reason he made such a plan was for Xiong Quan's sake.
Xiong Quan's current cultivation base was still too weak after all.
If he were to enter the Profound Assimilation Formation together with him, Xiong Quan's soul would not be able to withstand the Concept Energy that filled the Profound Assimilation Formation with his current cultivation base.
Let alone helping him improve his Sword Concept.
"Alright."
Right now, Lu Rui would do whatever Duan Lingtian told him to do. He would listen to whatever Duan Lingtian said.
"If that's the case, I won't disturb your cultivation anymore, Elder Duan."
Lu Rui then left sensibly.
After Lu Rui left, Duan Lingtian also left the main hall and went to the backyard.
