Qingcang Immortal Clan: Starting with Farming to Increase Luck

After several cycles of cultivation, Lu Yang's breathing stabilized, and he finished his cultivation. He couldn't hide the joy on his face. Breakthroughs in cultivation were always so delightful.

The sun was high in the sky when Lu Yang stood up and threw a punch, unleashing a powerful and expansive Mingwang Fist.

For the past two months, Lu Yang has been studying the Mingwang Fist diligently. However, the Mingwang Fist is not as simple as ordinary body-refining techniques, and it is extremely difficult to comprehend.

It took Lu Yang two whole months to figure out the tricks of the trade.

However, by this time, he should have entered the realm of Qi Refining. Breaking through to the third level of Qi Refining did not deplete Lu Yang's luck, but luck is something that can never be retained.

After activating the Fate-Breaking Pearl, Lu Yang began practicing the Mingwang Fist over and over again.

With the blessing of good fortune, the Wisdom King manifested in his sea of ​​consciousness, and the Buddhist aura of the Wisdom King Fist in his hands became increasingly intense. Boom!

Suddenly, a phantom image of the King of Light condensed in his sea of ​​consciousness and began to evolve into the King of Light Fist together with Lu Yang's body. At this moment, Lu Yang felt light and refreshed all over.

The basics of Mingwangquan have been mastered.

As Lu Yang mastered the Mingwang Fist, he felt his body getting stronger with each repetition of the technique.

In the cultivation world, besides the Qi cultivation school, there is also the body cultivation school.

It is common knowledge that body refinement is difficult, so cultivators only use it as a supplement to enhance their combat abilities.

Of course, some cultivators with low-quality spiritual roots, wanting to seize that sliver of opportunity to establish their foundation, will also frantically refine their bodies, attempting to break through the bottleneck of foundation establishment through body refinement methods.

Believe it or not, some actually succeeded, though they were extremely rare, but they inspired countless followers to follow suit.

The most famous practitioners of body refinement are actually the Buddhist and demonic sects.

In the southern lands, there are also demonic cultivators, but with the three great immortal sects pressing them down like mountains, those demonic cultivators can only hide and do their dirty deeds like rats in a stinking ditch.

Just like the demon Lu Yang encountered before, he was hunted down as soon as he showed his face, and was forced to possess someone else's body.

Even so, all the major powers are always on guard against demonic cultivators. The troublesome thing about these demonic cultivators is that they are ubiquitous. Due to negligence, there are quite a few families that have been slaughtered and their clans wiped out by demonic cultivators.

With demonic cultivators now appearing near Lujiafang City, we really need to be careful.

Having mastered the Mingwang Fist, Lu Yang's body refinement level was equivalent to the first level of Qi Refining. Upon closer inspection, one could see that Lu Yang's body was covered in golden light. If Lu Yang were to withstand another attack from that demonic cultivator now, he would probably only suffer a minor injury at most.

After finishing his cultivation, Lu Yang used the Life-Breaking Pearl to conceal the aura of the Mingwang Fist. It was best to keep the fact that he was practicing Buddhist techniques a secret.

However, the price of learning the Mingwang Fist is not small. After accumulating two months of luck, breaking through to the third level of Qi Refining did not consume much of it, but most of it was consumed by learning the Mingwang Fist.

After casting a minor cloud and rain spell on the spirit field and confirming that no pests were growing, Lu Yang returned to the courtyard.

Lu Yang has been going fishing less lately, as various forms of cultivation have filled his time, leaving him no time for fishing.

He bought the talisman brush, received the cinnabar as a gift, and got the talisman paper. It's been two months since he came back, and Lu Yang still hasn't started drawing talismans.

Now it's time to test the quality of this Water Yin Talisman Scripture.

In the courtyard, Lu Yang unfolded the talisman paper, held the Moon Locust Talisman Brush, and adjusted his state.

In fact, drawing talismans is to use a talisman brush to perform magic, drawing it on talisman paper, sealing it inside, and waiting for the right time to unleash it.

boom!

Lu Yang was drawing his most familiar water-piercing technique on the talisman paper. He had already mastered the basics of this technique and was quite proficient in using it.

However, there is still a gap between talisman making and spell casting. Lu Yang wanted to see how good his talisman-drawing talent was, so he did not activate the Fate-Breaking Bead directly, but tried it out on his own first.

With each stroke, there were many hesitations, yet there was still a touch of the spirit of water-piercing technique. However, before Lu Yang could finish the last bit, the talisman exploded with a bang.

A water spike came flying at his face. Lu Yang waved his hand and used a water mirror technique to block it, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seemed that his talent for making talismans was only so-so.

According to the teachings of the Taoist academy, it takes several months for a talisman maker to even begin to master the basics, even for low-grade talismans.

In other words, for someone like Lu Yang, it would be practically impossible to get started with talisman making without spending several months experimenting.

This is the cost of making talismans. In the past few months, there has been no recovery, and the talisman paper and cinnabar have all been pure expenditures. The consumption of spiritual power and the mental strain can also be included in this cost.

Lu Yang didn't insist any further; he didn't want to spend months just to get started with talisman making.

The Fate-Breaking Pearl still held half a month's worth of fortune. Once activated, Lu Yang picked up his brush again to draw a talisman. The feeling was indeed different; it was as if he had divine assistance. He drew the talisman with a single, fluent stroke.

However, the feeling faded quickly as time went on. In the end, Lu Yang barely managed to connect the last stroke and seal the spiritual power of the Water Spike Technique, but because it was too hasty, most of the spiritual power was lost.

However, the talisman was finally completed!

Lu Yang looked delighted as he examined the first talisman of his life.

With most of its spiritual energy lost, its power is naturally greatly diminished, leaving only about one-tenth of the strength of a normal talisman. It can be described as a defective product among defective products.

It seems that relying solely on half a month's fortune to even begin to understand talismanic arts is ultimately a stretch.

Fortunately, it worked. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Remember this feeling, and gradually experience it. With more practice, you will naturally improve faster than ordinary talisman masters.

However, judging from the current situation, although Lu Yang successfully drew the talisman, he is only a half-baked one.

"Brother Yang, Brother Yang, are you there?"

Just as Lu Yang was about to give it another try, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard.

After taking a few steps into the courtyard, Lu Yang smiled as he looked at the two figures in front of him.

"Lu Tong, Lu Jie, what brings you here?"

These two were Lu Yang's classmates at the Dao Academy. Lu Tong was one year younger than Lu Yang, and Lu Jie was two years older than Lu Yang. They were of the same generation as Lu Yang, but their spiritual root aptitude was slightly worse than Lu Yang's.

The chubby Lu Tong had the aptitude of four spiritual roots, while the tall Lu Jie only had the aptitude of five spiritual roots. When Lu Yang broke through to the first level of Qi Refining, neither of them had yet completed the Spirit Gathering Method.

Now, sensing their presence again, it became clear that both of them had already broken through to a higher level.

Lu Tong was slightly chubby and looked very festive. Back in the Taoist academy, Lu Tong followed behind Lu Yang and was also short. Now, in just over a year, he has grown taller.

"Yang-ge, sob, I'm so glad to see you again! You have no idea how I've been gone all year. Look at me, look at me, I've gotten so thin from missing you so much."

Lu Yang, who had used his index finger to tap Lu Tong's head and stop his charge, couldn't help but twitch his lips. (Skinny?)

If Lu Tong only had five swimming rings before, now he has ten. And he's still thin?

Lu Jie couldn't help but twitch her lips, her eyes filled with envy as she looked at the two of them.

I envy both their talent and their relationship.

"Alright, Lu Jie, come in first."

Although Lu Yang should address Lu Jie as "sister" based on age, cultivators prioritize those who have achieved the highest level, and among peers, unless they are siblings, they usually address each other by their given names.

Lu Tong has a good relationship with Lu Yang and always considers himself his younger brother, which is why he calls him "Brother Yang".

Lu Jie nodded upon hearing this and followed Lu Yang into the courtyard. Looking at the courtyard in front of her, Lu Jie was somewhat envious. It was truly wonderful to have three spiritual roots; one could enjoy such a place even while cultivating.

The corners of the courtyard were filled with flowers and plants, and a small garden was set up with tables and chairs and tea. This courtyard was even better than the one provided by the clan.

No wonder Lu Yang didn't live there. After they broke through, the clan also provided them with courtyards. She had something to ask the clan, and after finding out the location of Lu Yang's courtyard, she went there but couldn't find him.

Later, they looked for Lu Tong, but Lu Tong didn't know either. They went back to Lingzhi Hall and asked Lu Yunxia before they finally got this address.

When she arrived, Lu Jie saw the growth of the spiritual fields outside Lu Yang's courtyard and knew that she had indeed come to the right place.
