With the circulation of the Seventh Heaven of Ice and Fire technique, the fire spiritual energy in Lu Yu’s body became less intense, and his qi-blood continued to increase.
Under the nourishment of his qi-blood, the meridians that had been burned by the fire spiritual energy began to recover. As time passed, new and more tenacious meridians appeared in Lu Yu’s body.
The last wisp of fire spiritual energy disappeared completely, and the AFK stopped. Lu Yu’s consciousness took over his body again.
He did not expect that he could benefit from this crisis and activate the cultivation of Seventh Heaven of Ice and Fire.
After this incident, Lu Yu understood the cultivation conditions of the Seventh Heaven of Ice and Fire.
If he found an item or an environment that could provide him with fire spiritual energy, he could cultivate this technique. Similarly, he also needed an item or an environment that could provide him with ice spiritual energy.
And the dual polarity land mentioned in the jade disk of the Seventh Heaven of Ice and Fire should be the place where the two types of spiritual energy gathered at the same time.
After Lu Yu’s body recovered, he quickly got up and moved in the opposite direction from Yang Xiu.
If Yang Xiu came back to check on him, he would really be dead.
Yang Xiu did not expect that Lu Yu was able to cultivate the Seventh Heaven of Ice and Fire. Otherwise, he would definitely burn to death.
Lu Yu ran far away before he had time to check the system notification.
[Cultivation progress of the Seventh Heaven of Ice and Fire has been slightly improved. Cultivation progress + 1%, qi-blood + 6]
Cultivating the Seventh Heaven of Ice and Fire was different from the Fierce Tiger Fist Style and the Edgeless Blade Art. Just by increasing a small amount of progress bar, his qi-blood could be increased. It was unlike the other two cultivation techniques, which required one level to increase his qi-blood.
Lu Yu stopped and looked around. There were trees all around, and there was no sign of anyone coming.
Looking at the sun in the sky, Lu Yu thought about the direction of the sun when he walked on the road. Lu Yu chose the path based on his judgement. As long as he found the road, he would be able to find other people.
After walking for half a day, Lu Yu found that his method was not very reliable. He had already walked for more than 30 miles, but he still did not see the road.
Not to mention the road, there was not even a sight of human habitation. Moreover, the surrounding forest was becoming denser and denser. Lu Yu suspected that he was walking into the depths of the mountains.
The sky had already darkened. Lu Yu had no choice but to find a big tree and cut some wood with his knife. He managed to build a wooden platform on the tree to ensure that he would not fall down when he slept at night.
He was not the Xiaolongnü. He did not have the ability to sleep on a tree branch without falling.
Lying on the simple wooden platform, Lu Yu looked at the stars in the sky through the gaps in the leaves above his head. He suddenly thought of Little Tail.
One night, Little Tail asked Lu Yu if the person who died would become a star in the sky.
Lu Yu told her clearly that the dead would only go to the underworld and not to the sky.
At that time, when he saw the sadness on her face. He then comforted her by saying that a good person would go to heaven after death.
“A good person would go to heaven after death and become a star. Was Little Tail a good person?” Lu Yu thought in a daze.
When he heard Hei Lang say that Little Tail jumped off the cliff to protect him, Lu Yu felt a little uneasy.
Sitting on the wooden platform and leaning against the tree trunk, Lu Yu looked at the stars in the sky in a daze, looking for the brightest star.
It had been a long time since he had seen a star. In the city, there were no stars at all. The neon lights were too bright, obscuring the light of the stars.
Lu Yu also did not expect to be able to see so clearly in the game, such a clean night sky.
After a while, Lu Yu fell asleep.
When he woke up, the sun had risen. After eating a marching ball, he logged out of the game.
After washing up and eating breakfast, Lu Yu looked at the computer that had not been turned on for a month. He wondered if he should continue writing novels. He had promised the readers that he would write in a month, but he had yet to make any preparations.
Scratching the back of his head, he said, “Who cares! I write novels for my own enjoyment, and it was so much fun in the Divine Martial World. Why would I still write novels? Of course I choose to play the game!”
He looked at the ingredients in the kitchen. The food he had bought for the past few months was almost finished. In a few days, he would have to go out to replenish his reserves. He felt that the food was being eaten so quickly.
Lu Yu thought that it would be great if he had the marching ball in real life.
Thinking of this, Lu Yu was a little curious. After he got the recipe for the marching ball in the game, could he make it in real life?
After eating breakfast, Lu Yu returned to the game.
He picked a direction and continued to move forward.
If he were in real life, he might be anxious if he lost his way in the wilderness. However, in the game, Lu Yu was very relaxed.
He did not lack food. He had a lot of marching balls in his backpack. As for water, with his leg strength, it was not difficult for him to find the water source. If he found a water source, he would not have to worry about the water for the next few days.
Now, he was afraid that he would not be able to walk out even if he walked for a few days. This mountain forest looked very big.
[Regional chat] Anonymous: Is there anyone here? Who can save me?
Lu Yu saw a message appear in the public chat channel. This was the first time he had met other players in the game. Before this, he thought that only he and Su Peng and Zhang Jingyang were playing this game.
When he was staying in Windmill Town, the public chat was empty. Now, he was a little happy when he suddenly saw a message in the public channel.
The coverage of regional chat was not wide. Lu Yu wanted to meet other players and exchange game experience.
So, he asked, “Where are you? What kind of danger did you encounter?”
When he sent the message, the system prompted Lu Yu to choose to send the message in anonymous or his name. He could also choose to show his title. Currently, Lu Yu only had one title — Fierce Tiger Fist Master. He obtained it when his Fierce Tiger Fist Style had reached ‘perfected’ level.
The title did not have any attribute bonuses, but in the chat, using the title to speak was undoubtedly more credible than the word ‘anonymous’.
Lu Yu thought for a bit and chose to use the title of Fierce Tiger Fist Master. Using the title had more advantages than disadvantages.
[Regional chat] Fierce Tiger Fist Master: Where are you? What kind of danger have you encountered?
Seeing that someone had replied to her message, Yu Xiaoman became excited. She had been trapped in this huge pit for almost an hour. Previously, she had sent many messages asking for help, but no one had replied.
[Regional chat] Anonymous: I am in a huge pit. The pit is very deep. It is at least five to six meters deep. I can’t climb up.
“Huge pit?” Lu Yu looked at the dense forest around him. Where did this huge pit come from?
[Regional chat] Fierce Tiger Fist Master: Describe the surrounding environment. I can’t find you even if you just mention a pit.
[Regional chat] Anonymous: There are many thick trees around me. I slipped and fell into the pit when I was going downhill.
Lu Yu looked at the terrain. He was walking up the mountain, but he couldn’t determine the exact location just by talking about a downhill slope.
[Regional chat] Anonymous: Bamboo! When I went down the slope, I saw a lot of bamboo in front of me.
Bamboo was not everywhere in the forest, so it could be used as a reference to determine the location. Lu Yu quickly ran up the mountain. Looking down from above, it was easier to find where there was bamboo.
When he was halfway up the mountain, he saw a bamboo forest on his left. He turned and ran towards the bamboo forest.
[Regional chat] Anonymous: Have you found the bamboo? If you can’t find it, you can look for it first. I’m going offline to eat.
[Regional chat] Fierce Tiger Fist Master: I’ve found it. Wait a little longer.
After Lu Yu passed through the bamboo forest, he saw a collapsed pit. The pit looked quite deep, and he couldn’t see the bottom from afar.
He walked to the side of the pit and saw a girl standing below.
Yu Xiaoman raised her head and saw someone standing by the side of the sinkhole. She raised her hands happily and shouted while jumping, “Help me up quickly.”
The pit was probably more than seven meters deep, and she didn’t know how it was formed. Moreover, there were many bamboo roots that were exposed around the pit. Lu Yu couldn’t understand why she didn’t climb out of the pit by herself since it was so easy to climb out.
Lu Yu took out a rope from his backpack and threw one end down. He said, “Tie it around your waist. I’ll pull you up.”
The girl quickly tied the rope. When Lu Yu saw it, he used all his strength to lift her up easily. After she came up, he asked her to untie the rope and put it away. This rope was very useful! It helped him a lot.
Lu Yu asked curiously, “Aren’t there a lot of bamboo roots at the edge of the hole? Why don’t you climb up yourself?”
“There are centipedes as thick as fingers are on the roots. I didn’t dare to climb up.”
This was indeed a good reason.
Lu Yu carefully observed the girl for a while and found that there were basically no signs of injuries on her body. It was a little strange.
“Also, how did you fall into such a deep pit? And you were completely fine.”
“I just slid down. I don’t know either. Maybe I was lucky!” Yu Xiaoman pointed in the direction where she had slid down.
Then she asked Lu Yu excitedly, “The game is so real. Is it fun?”
“Well, it should be fun!”
…
After answering her questions, Lu Yu realized that she was even more newbie than he was. She didn’t understand the game at all. She didn’t even know that dying in the game might lead to brain death.
Lu Yu kept answering her questions. He only had time to ask her questions after she paused for a short while.
“Do you know Su Peng?”
“Who is Su Peng? I don’t know him.” Yu Xiaoman shook her head, feeling a little strange.
“What about Zhang Jingyang?” Lu Yu asked.
“I don’t know him either. Are you talking about a celebrity? I’ve never heard of him.”
“Then where did you get your gaming helmet from?”
“I don’t know where it came from either. Maybe it was a prize I got from a lucky draw. I was lucky enough to win every time.”
Lucky draw? Lu Yu was full of questions. Could it be that the Divine Martial World had already been released? But why didn’t they tell the players about the flaws in the game helmet? Or were the flaws in the game helmet been fixed?
Lu Yu wasn’t sure either. He had the urge to send a private message to ask Su Peng. But Su Peng seemed to be unwilling to tell him the truth, Lu Yu couldn’t get anything out of him.
He could only look for answers from other players.
“Master, do you know the way out? Why do I feel like I’ve been here before?” Yu Xiaoman asked with her eyes wide open.
Lu Yu looked at his surroundings. They did look familiar. “Why was we circling around here?” he thought.
“Don’t worry! As a senior player in the Divine Martial World, finding a way out is a piece of cake.”
Half an hour later, Lu Yu felt like he had seen the surrounding scene more than once. He said, “It’s fine. We are indeed walking out of the forest. It’s just that the trees all look the same, so we feel that they look familiar.”

Yu Xiaoman looked at Lu Yu speechlessly and strongly requested for her to lead the way. She picked up a tree branch on the ground and shouted, “The branch tip point to the direction to the nearest city…”
After saying that, she threw the branch into the sky and brought Lu Yu to the direction where the branch tip was pointing at.
“Is this reliable?” Lu Yu was skeptical in his heart. Wasn’t she just used her luck to find the way like him?
“Don’t worry, this is my unique skill. I can definitely find the way out.” Yu Xiaoman was full of confidence.
An hour and a half later, Lu Yu looked at the city at the end of the sky and felt very conflicted.. Why was this Yu Xiaoman’s luckier than him?
