Chapter 391 An Unexpected Discovery In The Stargazing Tower

Soon, Lu Yu arrived at the stargazing tower. Due to the intense battle in the morning, the place was already in ruins, and workers were currently repairing it.

However, this didn't affect the regular operation of the stargazing tower. Thus, Lu Yu still walked into it, planning to continue cultivating inside the tower.

Many people were surprised to see Lu Yu. They didn't expect Lu Yu to have still the ability to cultivate, and this meant that his talent wasn't gone!

Lu Yu walked into the stargazing tower as he ignored the murmuring of the passersby. His goal was to cultivate, and that was all.

If Jiang Lengyue's words were valid, something big would happen soon in the upper house. He had to make sufficient preparations in advance.

Lu Yu entered the tower and went through several doors, heading to the top floor of the stargazing tower.

Very quickly, Lu Yu arrived at the ninth floor of the stargazing tower, which was also the highest floor.

There was still no one here. Once Lu Yu entered, his surroundings were still pitch black, as if he were in outer space, with just a few specks of starlight.

Lu Yu sat cross-legged in the dark, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.

He began to absorb the energy in his surroundings, and to Lu Yu's surprise, the speed of his absorption increased!

He felt that the energy here was similar to the chaotic energy he had absorbed during the surgery.

Perhaps it was because he had evolved the Dark Dragon Claw.

Or, it could also be the scenario that Jiang Lengyue mentioned. The seal had loosened, which was why the energy leaking out had increased quite a bit.

In the darkness, the surrounding energy surged into Lu Yu as if he were a black hole.

Lu Yu could feel his body being filled up, and his attributes skyrocketed during his cultivation.

Lu Yu, who had his eyes closed, suddenly felt something. It was as if a giant creature had appeared in front of him.

He popped his eyes open and found a massive shadow in front of his eyes. It was tall like a skyscraper, in the shape of a giant dragon. It was dark purple, and its head was a skull without any flesh.

The pair of eyes were ghostly flames floating in the air.

The pair of wings on its back were left with bones. There was no flesh or blood, only a skeleton and a layer of energy.

Looking at the huge dragon in front of him, Lu Yu was in a daze. He rubbed his eyes and looked again, and there was nothing again.

It felt like an illusion, but Lu Yu knew it was definitely not. The shadow that had just appeared was most likely the sealed ancient beast!

Lu Yu turned around and looked around, but he saw nothing.

His heart started beating faster, and he was considering whether to continue his cultivation or report this matter to Jiang Lengyue.

"Forget it; I'll cultivate first. I'll explain the situation earlier tonight."

As Lu Yu muttered to himself, he closed his eyes again and continued cultivating.

If the sealed ancient ferocious beast had truly desired to attack Lu Yu, it would have done so long ago. It only appeared as a phantom to scare him, which proved that it hadn't broken through its seal yet.

As his cultivation continued, Lu Yu began to feel that his cultivation speed had increased further as his attributes rose crazily.

Lu Yu saw that his attack attribute had soared, rising from 1,010 to 1,100.

In less than half a day's cultivation, he increased his attack by nearly 100 points. This speed was nothing short of a miracle.

Although cultivating here would cause one to reach a bottleneck faster, it was a trade-off for the fast attribute gain; it wouldn't waste much of the cultivator's time either.

After entering a bottleneck, Lu Yu could find a way to break through it quickly. Overall, his cultivation was much faster than before.

Lu Yu continued to absorb the energy around him to replenish his body; his attack, defense, health, and mana all received a huge boost.

After some time, Lu Yu finally opened his eyes. He took out his phone and saw that it was already 11 p.m.

Unknowingly, it was already this late at night.

Lu Yu stood up and decided to end today's training. But before returning to his residence, he planned to report the dragon's phantom he had encountered.

He opened his attribute panel, checking the results of his cultivation.

[ Personal attributes ]

[ Attack: 1100 ]

[ Speed: 900 ]

[ Health: 1850 ]

[ Mana: 700 ]

[ Defense: 950 ]

All of his attributes had improved, totaling around 200-300 attribute points. The efficiency of his cultivation here was high, to say the least.

It had only been half a day, and he had greatly improved his strength!

If he could cultivate here for half a month, it would be comparable to Lu Yu's one year of cultivation outside!

Lu Yu took out his phone and called Xu Yuan.

At that moment, Xu Yuan was just about to go to bed when he saw Lu Yu's call; he immediately sat up straight and answered.

"Hey, did you encounter a problem?" Xu Yuan asked anxiously.

"When cultivating in the stargazing tower, I saw a shadow in the shape of a huge dragon. I think it might be the sealed ancient beast."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan's eyes widened. The upper house's higher-ups had studied the stargazing tower for many years but still couldn't figure out what kind of creature was sealed; he didn't expect Lu Yu to encounter it after only entering the tower a few times!

"This is great. Your discovery will definitely aid the upper house's research on the stargazing tower. Jiang Lengyue definitely wouldn't believe that you discovered something she has been researching for over a decade within your first week here."

Lu Yu was also surprised by his good luck. On his second visit here, he discovered the secret of the stargazing tower.

"Alright then, I'll contact Jiang Lengyue later and explain the situation to her."

Xu Yuan nodded in response. "Okay, go ahead and tell them. This is very important."

"Alright..."

Lu Yu hung up the phone and prepared to leave the stargazing tower. He walked down floor by floor, from the ninth floor to the eighth floor, the seventh floor, and the sixth floor.

Very quickly, Lu Yu exited the stargazing tower.

Standing at the tower's entrance, Lu Yu scanned his surroundings and realized it was already pitch black. There was no light in the area, making it appear even darker.

Lu Yu had to walk forward with only the moonlight illuminating his way.

However, when he arrived at the tower entrance, Lu Yu saw someone standing there.

The person was stepping on a corpse—the security guard of the stargazing tower!
