Guarding the border: I am sanctified in the flesh

Chapter 100 Practicing human-level skills, adding points crazily

"talk later."

Lu Fan wasn't very interested, but he didn't refuse directly, leaving himself some leeway.

The two were talking and came to the tenth floor of Zangshu Pavilion.

He paid special attention to it. On each floor, there were several young men and women reading books.

The same goes for the tenth floor.

If only he had the chance.

Lu Fan envied how these people were treated.

However, he also knows that it is impossible for others to practice various exercises and martial arts without bottlenecks like him.

Even if he stays in Zangshu Pavilion every day, it is definitely not as effective as his cultivation.

Otherwise, what's the deal?

"Here are all ninth-level body training techniques, you can choose by yourself."

Li Ruoqiu brought Lu Fan to a row of bookshelves, pointed to one of the gaps and said, "There are not many body training techniques, and the ninth level is even less. Even the library in the palace has only a few dozen books."

"enough."

Lu Fan nodded with a smile.

He changed his previous thinking. Originally, he was worried that the ninth-level body training technique was not enough, so he wanted to get a few books on martial arts such as the ninth-level sword technique or spear technique.

But now that there are dozens of ninth-level body training books, it is enough for him to practice.

He wanted to train his physical body to be indestructible, even immortal.

Although I don't know if anyone has done it, but he wants to try.

Maybe it will allow him to find a new way of cultivation.

"Dragon Elephant Physical Skill", "The Body of Ten Thousand Refinements", "King Kong Is Indestructible", "Heart Training", and so on.

Lu Fan was dazzled by various body training techniques.

Just looking at the name, he couldn't see the good or the bad, so he chose "The Body of Ten Thousand Refining", and practiced it first.

Anyway, he can still get several copies.

If it doesn't work, let's exchange for military exploits.

Sooner or later he will learn all these body refining techniques.

"Okay, that's it."

Lu Fan held the exercise in his hand and said, "I'll go and choose a human-level exercise."

"Well, come with me."

Li Ruoqiu turned around and led Lu Fan into a room.

Also on this floor.

There was no one in the room, just a row of bookshelves and a few cabinets.

"All the human-level exercises are here."

Li Ruoqiu pointed to the bookshelf, and said: "Including martial arts are also there, you can choose according to your choice."

"it is good."

Lu Fan roughly counted all the human-level exercises and martial arts, and there are only a few dozens of them.

The exercises are even more pitiful.

Rare enough to see human-level exercises.

You must know that this is the collection of books in the imperial palace. It has been accumulated for thousands of years by the Great Zhou Dynasty, and its heritage is extremely profound.

No family or sect can compare.

Lu Fan started from the beginning, read each book, and finally settled on the exercise at the end.

"Dao"!
It's it!
Lu Fan quickly made a choice, took the exercise in his hand, and looked back at Li Ruoqiu, "I've made my choice."

"Ah."

Li Ruoqiu instructed: "You must keep it safe, remember to return it after you use it."

"know."

Lu Fan nodded slightly.

"Let's go."

Li Ruoqiu signaled Lu Fan to leave first, she walked around the room before she came out and closed the door.

The two chatted casually and came downstairs.

Lu Fan wrote his name on the register, and after pressing his fingerprints, he left Zangshu Pavilion with the exercises.

The human level technique is finally available.

The rest is cultivation.

Lu Fan was in a particularly comfortable mood at this time, and he had more expectations in his heart.

What kind of cultivation base and realm will he reach when he has practiced the human-level skills to perfection?

What kind of strength will it achieve?
There are still so many body training techniques waiting for him to practice. When he has practiced all the body training techniques to perfection, how far can he grow?
……

……

When Lu Fan returned to the side hall, it happened to be lunch time.

Gao Wancheng was sitting in the main hall, guarding a table of wine and food, without moving his chopsticks.

"Lu Fan, you are finally back."

Gao Wancheng waved to Lu Fan, "Come and eat."

"Oh."

Lu Fan came to sit down opposite Gao Wancheng, looked at the food and wine on the table, and said with a smile, "It's quite rich."

"It's in the palace, you can't lose your mouth."

Gao Wancheng picked up the jug, poured a glass of wine for Lu Fan, and said, "These are imperial court dishes, ordinary people have no chance to eat them."

"Thank you."

Lu Fan didn't expect that working in the palace would have such advantages. Not only would he not lose his reputation, but he would also be able to gain a lot of attribute points that can be assigned because of eating well.

It just so happens that he needs attribute points very much now.

"I told you not to be polite to me."

Gao Wancheng also poured himself a glass of wine, raised his glass with a smile, "Come on, let's do one first."

"Okay, cheers."

After eating and drinking enough, Lu Fan went back to his room, took out the Daoist scriptures, and read them from the beginning.

With the previous foundation, he practiced quickly.

I don't know how long it took, Lu Fan closed the Dao Jing, put it aside, and opened the attribute panel.

Name: Lu Fan

Lifespan: 17/776
Power: 141.24
Agility: 52.29
Mental Power: 51.35
Physical strength: 135.72
Cultivation level: fourth grade

Martial arts: the perfection of the six imperial gods, the perfection of the practice of thousands of hammers, the perfection of the body training of gods and demons, the perfection of the nine-turn golden body
Assignable Attribute Points: 168.36
After eating a meal just now, the assignable attribute has increased by 0.6.

not bad.

He now has a cumulative total of 168.36 assignable attribute points.

If it is added to the exercises, it is equivalent to 16836 experience points.

I don't know if I can practice the Taoism to perfection in one breath?

Try it!

With a thought, Lu Fan added 10 points of experience to the Taoist scriptures, and the remaining experience was 16236.

The next moment, the Dao Jing was upgraded to the second level.

The spiritual power in Lu Fan's body increased slightly.

For him now, it is almost negligible.

continue!

He added 50 experience points, and the remaining experience was 16186.

Dao Jing is upgraded to the third level.

His spiritual power has increased a little.

Plus!

Lu Fan added 100 experience points, and the remaining experience was 16086.

Dao Jing was upgraded again and entered the fourth level.

His spiritual power has increased slightly.

Come on.

Lu Fan added 500 experience points, and the remaining experience was 15586.

Dao Jing has been upgraded to the fifth level.

This time, the spiritual power in his body has been significantly improved.

continue!

Lu Fan added another 1000 experience points, and the remaining experience was 14586.

Dao Jing has been upgraded to the sixth level.

The spiritual power in his body has greatly increased.

Come again!

Lu Fan added another 5000 experience points, and the remaining experience was 9586.

Dao Jing has been upgraded to the seventh level.

The spiritual power in his body soared, almost filling his dantian.

Coming soon!
continue!

Lu Fan added all the remaining experience.

It was a little bit worse, the Dao Jing failed to upgrade to the eighth level.

Open the attribute panel, and glance at the skill item.

The Seventh Level of Taoism (9586/10000)

Only 414 experience points away.

That is, a difference of 4.14 assignable attributes.

At Lu Fan's current speed, it only takes two or three days to save enough.

If he practiced harder, maybe two days would be enough.

That's it.

This kind of cultivation speed is enough to satisfy him.

After all, this is a human-level skill. If it were someone else, it might take ten or eight years, or even longer, to practice to his current level.

How long did it take him?
Not even an afternoon.

It has surpassed others too much.

Lu Fan's mentality is very stable now, he knows that haste makes waste.

Especially for martial arts, don't be in a hurry.

Without getting up, Lu Fan took out "The Body of Ten Thousand Refinements" and flipped through it carefully.

Soon, he closed the exercises and began to practice.

With the previous foundation, no matter what kind of body training technique is in Lu Fan's hands, it is easy for him to comprehend it, and the practice is also very smooth.

When evening approached, Lu Fan got up and got out of bed, and walked out of the side hall.

Walking in the palace, almost all the faces you met were unfamiliar faces.

Occasionally a few people recognized him and greeted him.

They are all Dragon Shadow Guards who participated in the big martial arts competition together.

When he came outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he happened to meet an acquaintance who came out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The man also saw him, and was very surprised, "Lu Fan, it's you?"

Lu Fan looked at the other party carefully, and saw that he was wearing an official uniform, smiling, and in high spirits.

You don't need to ask to know that the other party is happy.

"Xu Zhao, you have become an official."

"It's all thanks to you."

Xu Zhao smiled and said, "Your Majesty just summoned me, and now I am serving in the Imperial Academy."

"It's a good job."

Lu Fan was a little surprised, "You can always stay by the emperor's side, maybe you will become a popular person by the emperor's side in the future."

"I'm just a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, fifth grade only."

Xu Zhao said politely, "It's incomparable to you, a third-rank imperial guard."

"Oh?"

Lu Fan was stunned: "You also know?"

"of course."

Xu Zhao nodded and reminded, "Don't you forget what I do?"

"right."

Lu Fan said: "You are helping the emperor draft documents, so you are naturally well-informed."

"It is indeed beneficial to follow the emperor."

Xu Zhao looked around and said in a low voice, "Seeing that I have been working hard recently, the emperor specially rewarded me with a copy of cultivation methods, and told me to practice hard, so that I will have a good body and be able to help him better in the future."

"Then congratulations, civil and martial arts."

Lu Fan smiled and said, "You will definitely do a lot in the future!"

"Bless you!"

Xu Zhao arched his hands and smiled.

He finally made it out.

After a few days, when he has saved enough money, he will send someone to redeem Liu Dai and bring her to the capital.

He wants to have a family.

……

……

In the evening, Lu Fan returned to his mansion.

Ye Wuchen came back a long time ago, sitting in the living room, drinking tea leisurely.

He was also wearing the military uniform of the Imperial Guard, but it was slightly different from Lu Fan's.

Lu Fan also sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and asked, "When did you come back?"

"I'll be back at noon."

Ye Wuchen smiled and said, "I ate here."

"So free?"

Lu Fan tentatively asked, "Don't you need to be on duty in the palace?"

"unnecessary."

Ye Wuchen shook his head lightly, "You probably don't need it either? And Yan Qing. This is because the emperor specially took care of the three of us."

"Oh."

Lu Fan glanced at Ye Wuchen's clothes, and suddenly realized that the clothes he wore were different because of the different grades.

"stop looking."

Ye Wuchen said with a smile: "Yan Qing and I are only fourth-rank imperial guards, one level behind you."

"As for the other players who won the rankings, like Zhu Jingtian and Mu Yan, they are all fifth-rank imperial guards."

"anything else."

After a short pause, Ye Wuchen continued: "The emperor specially selected sixty dragon shadow guards, and named them sixth-rank imperial guards."

"Oh? Sixty?"

Lu Fan was a little surprised, "Doesn't that mean that there are still people from our Zhennan Army who can stay in the capital?"

"Yes."

Ye Wuchen nodded, "Qin Yu, Meng Ran, Cao Ning, Song Yu, the four of them stayed."

"That's pretty good."

Lu Fan naturally knew what this meant. Being able to stay in the capital and stay beside the emperor was equivalent to plating them with a layer of gold. When they returned to the Zhennan Army, their status and status would be very different.

You know, the worst they have now is the sixth-rank official position.

After returning to the Zhennan Army, he will definitely be promoted.

At that time, it is likely to become a high-level military officer.

"Young master, it's time to eat."

Zhiqing knocked on the door and came in, bowing to the two of them.

"it is good."

Lu Fan and Ye Wuchen got up at the same time and came to the dining room.

The dinner table is full of wine and food.

Sweet and sour carp, stir-fried shredded pork tenderloin, cattail vegetables in milk soup, sea cucumber with scallion, roast duck, stir-fried kidney, double crispy fried in oil, fish slices, first-class tofu, braised prawns, Sixi meatballs, hibiscus chicken slices, etc.

More than a dozen dishes, plus two jugs of wine.

"These are all northern specialties."

Ye Wuchen greeted with a smile: "I specially ordered someone to make it, try it quickly."

"Are you presumptuously stealing the show?"

Lu Fan glanced at Ye Wuchen, "Why do I feel like a guest?"

"Haha."

Ye Wuchen laughed loudly, "Since we are friends, let's not separate each other."

"Eat."

Lu Fan picked up the chopsticks, tasted every dish, and nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad."

"Come on, have a drink."

Ye Wuchen picked up his wine glass, raised his hand at Lu Fan, and said with a smile, "We will be dependent on each other from now on."

"You describe it wrong."

Lu Fan corrected: "It should be called Blessed Sharing."

"well said!"

Ye Wuchen clinked glasses with Lu Fan, "Cheers!"

"cheers!"

After eating, Lu Fan opened the attribute panel, and the assignable attributes increased by a full 0.8.

not bad.

According to this way of eating, he will be able to accumulate enough attribute points in less than two days to upgrade his skills.

Now he has no shortage of food at all.

enough money to spend.

Even if you eat delicacies from mountains and seas every day, you can afford it.

And as his strength improved, his appetite also increased.

In the future, the speed at which he accumulates attribute points will only get faster and faster.

Even if you need a lot of experience to upgrade your skills, it doesn't matter.

He still cultivated faster than those so-called geniuses, and much faster!

……

……

The next day, in the morning.

Lu Fan did not go out, but stayed at home to practice.

Ye Wuchen didn't go out either, he took a reclining chair and found a shaded place in the yard, where the cool breeze was blowing comfortably.

Near noon, Lu Fan got up and got out of bed when he heard the noise coming from outside.

As soon as he came to the living room, he saw a group of people pouring into the living room.

And everyone has a gift in their hand.

The leader is Li Yongtai.

Following behind Li Yongtai were Qin Yu, Meng Ran, and Cao Ning.

The Long Yingwei of the Zhennan Army who came to Beijing to participate in the martial arts competition are all here.

"Master Commander, why are you here?"

Lu Fan quickly invited everyone into the house and ordered the maids to make tea and water.

"You have moved to a new house, of course we have to take a look."

Li Yongtai smiled and said, "What? You're not welcome?"

"Very welcome."

Lu Fan nodded and smiled at everyone, "Please sit down."

"Here, a present for you."

Li Yongtai handed the calligraphy and painting in his hand to Lu Fan, "This is what I wrote by myself."

"Thank you, my lord, this gift is too precious."

Lu Fan took the calligraphy and painting, unfolded it, and saw a big fan character written on it.

The flamboyant and phoenix dancing, the momentum is extraordinary!
"Good word!"

Lu Fan gave a compliment.

"Yes."

"It's really well written."

"It's especially rare."

The crowd applauded.

"Zhiqing, hang this painting in the most conspicuous place in the living room."

Lu Fan put away the calligraphy and painting and handed them to Zhiqing behind him.

"Yes, son."

Zhiqing took the calligraphy and painting and left.

"Lu Fan, this is a gift from me."

Others presented gifts one after another.

There are jewelry and jade, as well as antique calligraphy and paintings, and so on.

All worth a fortune.

Even Ye Wuchen took out a gift and handed it to Lu Fan, "This night pearl is for you."

Lu Fan was not polite, he took it in his hand and looked at it carefully.

This bead is about the size of an egg, crystal clear and emitting a faint white light.

The light is soft and not glare at all.

It is heavy in the hand, which appropriately expresses Ye Wuchen's heart, very heavy, very heavy!

"Thank you!"

"Your gifts are too precious."

Lu Fan bowed his hands to everyone, "Thank you very much."

"Why are you being polite to us?"

"that is!"

"We are all comrades in arms."

Everyone took a few steps politely and sat down.

"My lord, I have a visitor asking to see you."

The butler came in to report.

"Who?"

Lu Fan asked.

"He said his name was Gu Chen."

The steward said, "I'm here to apologize to the young master."

"Ok?"

Lu Fan was stunned for a moment, he didn't really want to see this person.

Moreover, tomorrow is the time for the agreed contest, what will the other party do?
apologize?

Or is there another purpose?

He raised his head, glanced at everyone, and finally set his eyes on Li Yongtai's face.

"Let Gu Chen come in."

Li Yongtai nodded slightly, "Listen to what he said."

"Row."

Lu Fan waved to the housekeeper, "Let him in."

"Yes."

The butler bowed and left.

After a while, he came back, and there was another person behind him.

It was Gu Chen.

However, Gu Chen didn't come empty-handed, but with a knife.

Black scabbard, black handle.

You can feel the chill even before you get out of the sheath.

Lu Fan was very surprised, thinking that he couldn't wait until tomorrow?
Up for the challenge today?
Everyone was also a little puzzled, and looked at Gu Chen with an unkind expression.

Sensing everyone's gaze, Gu Chen smiled awkwardly, "Don't get me wrong, I'm really here to make amends."

As he spoke, he raised the sword with both hands, came to Lu Fan, and lowered his head slightly, "This is my family's treasured sword, named Kunwu, please accept it."

Lu Fan didn't answer.

"Last time, I was too pretentious."

Gu Chen looked ashamed, "To think of challenging you in delusion is beyond my control. Thinking about it now, I'm really ashamed."

"Sorry, I apologize to you."

"And sincerely apologize to you."

Gu Chen held up his hands and said: "This knife is my heart, please accept it."

"What about tomorrow's martial arts competition?"

Lu Fan didn't expect that the other party would be so cowardly, and came to apologize before the competition.

Is he that scary?

Even though he was ruthless when facing the Dragon Shadow Guard of the Imperial Forest Army and wounded several people, he was measured.

Absolutely no human life will be caused.

Even if he competed with Gu Chen, he would at most severely injure him and teach him a lesson.

After all, he still has a place to use Gu Chen in the future.

The bet is what he used to tie Gu Chen.

"I surrender."

Gu Chen looked up at Lu Fan and explained: "Of course, the bet is still valid. Tomorrow I will explain this to people in the busiest street in the capital, and announce in public that I know I am not your opponent, so I will take the initiative to admit defeat."

"why?"

Lu Fan still didn't understand.

Wouldn't it be too useless to just admit defeat like this?
People will look down on you in the future.

"To tell you the truth, it's my father."

Gu Chen sighed softly, "He asked me to admit defeat, and took out the family heirloom sword, asking me to apologize."

"I disagreed at first, but after thinking about it later, I am indeed not as good as you."

"Even in a martial arts competition, I can't beat you, and I still can't avoid making a fool of myself."

"Just leave it at that."

Speaking of this, Gu Chen laughed at himself, "It saves the pain of flesh and blood."

"Did Gu Lingyun ask you to come?"

Li Yongtai answered, "He is quite interesting."

"My father said that he and you are old acquaintances."

Gu Chen turned his gaze to Li Yongtai, "For my father's sake, please help resolve this matter. Our Gu family does not want to have an enmity with Lu Fan."

"Since you've said that and your attitude is so sincere, I can't do it if I don't show up."

Li Yongtai glanced at Lu Fan and said, "Lu Fan, why don't you just accept this? If you accept Gu Chen's gift and his apology, cancel the contest and let him admit defeat directly."

"it is good."

Lu Fan nodded, "I'll listen to you."

This face, Lu Fan still has to give.

What's more, he doesn't suffer.

Bai earned a precious sword, and it didn't hurt his reputation.

Even better than him defeating Gu Chen directly.

Save time and don't say anything, the other side of the bet also agrees.

He really had no reason to refuse.

Thinking of this, he took the knife in his hand, held the handle with his right hand, and drew it violently.

"Shh!"

The knife is out of its sheath.

The pitch-black blade was icy to the touch, carrying a chilling chill.

Lu Fan flicked his fingers on the knife, making a series of clanging sounds.

"Good knife!"

"As expected, it is a family heirloom sword!"

Everyone praised.

They are all connoisseurs, so they can naturally tell a good knife from a bad one.

"I took this knife."

Lu Fan was also very satisfied, and nodded slightly, "The matter of the martial arts competition will be as you said, I will not show up tomorrow, you go and admit defeat in public."

"it is good."

Only then did Gu Chen heave a sigh of relief, and cupped his hands, "Don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter well, and it won't damage your reputation."

"Okay, since the matter is out of the way, let's do it."

Li Yongtai answered from the side: "Gu Chen, you have to remember this lesson and avoid causing trouble in the future."

"Yes, nephew understands!"

Gu Chen's face turned serious, and he said loudly: "I used to be too reckless and didn't consider the consequences when I did things. Now I know that the Dragon Shadow Guards are not easy to mess with, especially the Dragon Shadow Guards of the Zhennan Army."

"well said!"

Everyone was very happy to be praised.

"There's still a bet."

Gu Chen turned his gaze to Lu Fan, with a slightly disturbed expression, "I don't know what you want me to do?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, let's talk about it later."

Lu Fan doesn't lack anything now, there is really nothing for Gu Chen to do.

But what if it could be used someday?

How can I say that the Gu family is also a big family in the capital, Gu Chen, as the eldest son, is not weak in his own strength, maybe he will be of great use in the future.

"OK then."

Gu Chen cupped his fists, "Since this is the case, I won't bother you anymore. If you need it in the future, just ask. As long as I can do it, I will definitely do my best."

"Ah."

Lu Fan nodded and watched Gu Chen leave.
