Level Up in Martial World

The moment the green dragon enveloped her, her cultivation speed instantly increased by ten times, and countless insights flashed in her eyes.

"This is definitely the best method to cultivate," she thought with excitement as she delved deep into meditation.

…

Lu Zhen, unaware of the unfolding plot, slowly made his way towards the place where Huang Li was staying.

However, when he reached halfway to her room, he paused, a deep contemplation clouding his expression. An ominous feeling gripped his heart, as if something precious had been taken away from him.

"What happened?" He tightly clenched his fist around his heart, feeling the ominous sensation vanish as quickly as it had come.

"If I go to every woman, this will be time-consuming. I better train," Lu Zhen muttered, suddenly feeling an urge to focus on his cultivation. It didn't seem to come from his instinct; instead, it resonated from deep inside him, as if his very existence, his soul, was urging him to cultivate.

Without a moment's delay, he changed his footsteps and headed directly to his training area, where he began to warm up his body with physical exercises. However, his mind was not fully engaged in the training; he was diving deep into his memories, as if searching for something.

"I need my own power. I can't always rely on the system."

He suddenly halted his physical training, his eyes widening with realisation. Lu Zhen promptly stopped his training and entered his room instead and examined the row of books on his rack.

Quickly choosing a book, he started to read it patiently, going through each sentence methodically, not missing a single detail, and storing it in his memory.

After Lu Zhen had acquired these books from Elv, due to time constraints, he hadn't had the opportunity to properly read the books he had fought so hard to get.

As he skimmed through the books, his knowledge widened. Lu Zhen spent his entire time reading the books, completely focused, as if he were absorbing everything about the world. Hunger and lust couldn't break his concentration as he gradually reached a synchronisation with the book.

…

"What is this human doing?"

"Huh, what happened? Let me see." He looked at the screen, and his eyes widened before gradually returning to normal.

"It's just that he wants knowledge, nothing more. Besides, everything of his power is linked to the system, so no matter what he does, nothing can help him. It's just a fool's errand, as this pitiful worm is trying to escape from his fate."

"Hahaha, the thing is that he doesn't know that he can't change his fate, no matter what he does. But I wonder how much he will grow by the time we can eat him."

"It should be soon."

A smile appeared as the being revealed itself, seeming to be made of void itself. Its body was pitch black, except for the countless stars shining inside its body, as if its body contained the entire galaxy within twinkling in its body as a massive black hole revealed itself at the centre.

There were no nose, ears—nothing. Everything was a plain silhouette in the shape of a human.

The only way to actually differentiate these two was from the shape of their body and their heights, except that everything was eerily similar to each other.

Their laughter resounded in the room as they looked at the other screens instead of Lu Zhen.

….

As Lu Zhen read further and further, he finally found what he was looking for, which made his eyes light up.

He took a deep breath, instantly calming down his thoughts as he looked at the thin book made of a strange material.

At the front of the cover, there was written "BLOODLINE," inscribed in the cover rigidly, making it look very satisfying to the eyes.

"Let's see…" Lu Zhen could feel his own bloodline, which was slowly drying out as time passed, so he desperately needed an alternative solution.

"That bitch Elv trapped me…" he gritted his teeth. The demonic cultivation that Elv gave to Lu Zhen was terrifyingly powerful; however, in exchange for that power, there was a drawback as well—it would slowly start to drain his bloodline the more he cultivated it.

That means the more he cultivates the demonic cultivation technique, the more he will lose his bloodline.

It wouldn't have been the case if he had a purer bloodline of Volgrith; however, since it was so thin, the strain put on his own bloodline while he made demonic Qi was enough to dry out his bloodline.

Lu Zhen quickly delved into the book as he read the words.

Suddenly, he heard a knock, which made his ears twitch with a frown on his face.

"Who is it?"

"Young master, can I come in?" Huang Li replied with a deep voice.

"No, get lost." Lu Zhen's voice became cold as his killing aura erupted.

His killing aura travelled outside his room and directly all fell down on her.

A cold shiver ran down Huang Li's spine, cold sweat ran down her back as she trembled violently.

"Leave, I am busy."

"Yes… yes, young master."

As if on survival instinct, Huang Li ran from Lu Zhen's room as she gritted her teeth.

"I thought this bastard could provide me with resources after he took my virginity, but he doesn't even look at me now," she muttered as her pace increased.

Although Lu Zhen gave her enough resources to slowly cultivate, she has always stayed locked up in her room for a long time and was clueless about the ongoing news outside.

So she had come out of her seclusion to take some fresh air. At that time, she had heard the moans of Lily, who was Lu Zhen's maid, so she had secretly peeked inside, and what she saw made her envy her very deeply.

"He was so gentle with his maid, even caring for her, but for me…" Huang Li thought bitterly.
