Although he already had a perfect scapegoat candidate in mind, Lu Yuan was not in a hurry to start his national theft scheme.
After all, he had just arrived; he would not start causing trouble so early.
Before he came to the Great Xia Kingdom, the kingdom was still rather prosperous.
However, after he arrived, it started going downhill.
Once someone connected these two things, the possibility of Lu Yuan being suspected was undoubtedly very high.
As a steady person, Lu Yuan would never let himself fall into such danger.
…..
Even if someone took the blame, he, the Sixth Prince, could not be included in the list of suspects.
Therefore, Lu Yuan had to ensure that he had an absolute alibi before he could start his national theft scheme.
If he wanted to do all this, he would need at least two to three years to set the pieces in place.
Haste makes waste.
A steady person would always be steady no matter what he did.
Unless he had a 98% chance of success, he would never make a move hastily.
As long as he kept this in mind, he would not be in danger!
Lu Yuan felt that the reason why he had been able to develop so smoothly over the past few years was inseparable from his stable personality.
If he behaved like the other transmigrators, who were impatient and acted tough from the beginning, the grass on his grave would probably be three meters tall by now.
For instance, Chen Yan and Miss Mu Qiqi were undoubtedly the perfect targets for him to demonstrate his strength on.
If it was a normal transmigration scenario, Lu Yuan would have used these two people to show off after he achieved Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, and thus display his shocking talent.
After inspiring countless passersby with awe, he would most likely be sent to the main battlefield.
After that, he would turn the tables on the battlefield when faced with peril time and time again, achieving shocking cultivation.
However, was Lu Yuan an ordinary person? Obviously not!
He was not a fool. If he could cultivate safely in the rear, why would he foolishly go to such a dangerous place like the front line?
Lu Yuan couldn’t guarantee that what he took was definitely the main character’s script.
What if he had a supporting role or even a villain script?
His first exposure to danger might end up causing him to push the main character into the limelight with his own life.
Lu Yuan didn’t want to be such a sucker.
Compared to being pretentious and humiliating others, Lu Yuan preferred to stay in the novice village and use his strength and skills that far exceeded those of players of the same level to fight a battle without suspense.
This feeling of being the sixth in line and tricking people from the shadows was just as good as being pretentious!
Not only would his safety be guaranteed, but he would also gain a lot. Wasn’t this a steal?
Lu Yuan liked the feeling of being the Sixth Prince.
After helping Xu Wan’er change her fate and obtaining a huge amount of luck value, Lu Yuan also began to prepare to achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens for his spiritual roots.
This time, he was prepared to achieve Foundation Establishment for his wood and fire dual spiritual roots through the way of the heavens.
The cultivation technique he would use this time was the Nine Flaming Cicada Transformations.
If he succeeded this time, not only would he be able to obtain two Foundation Establishment spiritual roots, but his overall spiritual root aptitude would also increase by a level.
Later on, he could even obtain a tool clone.
The importance of a tool clone to Lu Yuan now was apparent.
He would get a perfect tool clone that did not know fatigue, did not complain, and worked obediently.
With the tool clone, Lu Yuan’s skill proficiency could undoubtedly improve faster.
He wondered why the Nine Fiery Cicada Transformations only provided one clone.
If he could obtain a few more clones, his skill cultivation speed would undoubtedly increase significantly.
A second advancement skill like the Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique could result in such a huge change for him.
If he could have a few more second advancement skills, the improvements he would experience would be unimaginable.
As a man of action, Lu Yuan moved very quickly. After he returned, he immediately began to make preparations for his breakthrough.
He came to his courtyard and activated all the arrays in the courtyard.
He even reminded the people outside, saying, “Even if the devils attack the Qingyun Sect, don’t let anyone come in and disturb me.”
Upon hearing this, even though the practitioners guarding outside did not know what Lu Yuan was going to do, they understood that this matter must be very important to him.
Hence, they also made up their minds that no matter what happened, they would not let anyone disturb him.
Apart from these arrangements, Lu Yuan also prepared many methods to prevent outsiders from disturbing him.
This included, but was not limited to, planting green flame pills and placing puppets at the door.
If someone stepped into the courtyard, the person would instantly activate the green flame pills buried below the surface and would be scorched by the exploding green flames.
Immediately after, the puppets lying in ambush in the surroundings would also move out in an instant and attack the enemy.
Lu Yuan’s courtyard also had a magic array set up by Shang Yun.
Moreover, the small courtyard was located in the center of the Devil Slayers Division.
Therefore, if an enemy wanted to come to Lu Yuan’s courtyard, not only would they have to fight their way through the many practitioners of the Devil Slayers Division, they would also need to withstand Lu Yuan’s various defensive methods.
Lu Yuan could not help but admire his own thorough preparation!
Even in the novice village, he still thought that his imaginary enemy was far stronger than anyone here.
With the methods he had arranged, let alone these weaklings in the novice area, even if the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators from outside came, they would definitely be killed before they even saw Lu Yuan!
After confirming that his protective measures were foolproof, Lu Yuan also began his Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.
Lu Yuan’s fire and wood dual spiritual roots had already been cultivated to perfection.
The only thing he lacked was a suitable cultivation technique and a Foundation Establishment spiritual root.
Therefore, what he needed to do now was very simple.
He had to let the heavens bless him again!
Similar to his previous attempts to achieve Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens, Lu Yuan’s process this time was bathing and changing clothes, praying to the heavens, burning incense and praying at a good, auspicious time.
It could be said that no one was better than Lu Yuan at currying favor with the heavens!
After showering and changing, Lu Yuan began a new prayer.
“Heavens, I, Lu Yuan, was previously blessed by you and was lucky enough to complete the Foundation Establishment through the way of the heavens.”
“In the next few years, I will cultivate diligently and do good deeds.”
“Cultivation is my duty, it’s not worth mentioning.”
“The good deeds I have done include, but are not limited to: saving a girl from the Drunken Cloud Brothel who had lost her footing, helping a damsel in distress in the streets of the Imperial capital, helping the Devil Slayer Division kill devils and rid evil, unintentionally foiling the devils’ plans, and so on…”
“I’m not saying this to show off the results I’ve achieved over the years. I’m saying that it’s because of your favor that I was able to do these difficult things.”
“As my cultivation increases, I feel that my responsibility has grown greater as well.”
“In order to help you build a better cultivation world, I hereby request for my third Foundation Establishment. Please bless me!”
After saying this, Lu Yuan inserted three incense sticks into the cauldron in front of him.
A short while later, when the three incense sticks were successfully burnt out, Lu Yuan revealed a happy expression.
Three of the four steps of Foundation Establishment, which were bathing, changing clothes, praying to the heavens, and burning incense, had all been completed.
Only the last step was left!
When it was sunrise, Lu Yuan, who had been staring at the success rate of his Foundation Establishment, suddenly opened his eyes.
Luck Talent: Destined Lucky Star…Activate!
[Foundation Establishment: Fire and Wood Spiritual Roots]
…..
[Foundation Establishment success rate: 99%]
There are 50 ways of heaven, 49 derived from the heavens and one from man.
The heavens could only help him this much.
The last 1% would depend on him!
Foundation Establishment….Begin!
