My cultivation method shines upon all heavens.

Chapter 80 Lord Liu is so generous?

She gave Lu Ming a deep look and said meaningfully, "The abilities of a great and virtuous teacher far exceed our imagination—you'd better take care of yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, the white-clad figure moved slightly and vanished without a trace, leaving only a wisp of cool fragrance lingering in the air.

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming immediately fell into deep thought.

No collusion?

But according to what he saw, the demons did indeed obey the people of the Way of Peace.

He narrowed his eyes, countless guesses flashing through his mind.

Could it be that—

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he was immediately horrified.

Never mind, it's none of my business.

He gave a wry smile, picked up the brocade box, and walked towards the room.

Over the next three days, after refining the Guiyuan Brew, he began the arduous task of collecting medicinal herbs.

The refining of Guiyuan Brew completely integrated its medicinal effects and formula into his mind, bringing him great surprise.

The expert from the Heart Sword Sect was indeed right.

This Guiyuan Brew can indeed increase the success rate of ordinary people in condensing their true body by 30%.

However, the original purpose of this wine recipe was to purify bloodlines and restore them to their original state. It was created by the Western King's Palace, the holy land of the human race, in order to explore the supreme path of transcending the mortal realm.

Although it did not achieve complete success, it can still increase the success rate of condensing the treasure raft by 10% for those who are on the path to the Seven Supremes.

Although this percentage may not seem high, it has torn a path to survival from "certain death" for the Seven Supreme Paths.

For Lu Ming, being able to brew Guiyuan Wine would be like preparing a backup plan for himself.

Although the chances of survival through this alternative path are slim, it is still far better than a dead end.

Unfortunately, the ingredients used to make Guiyuan Brew are astonishing.

Although the seventy-two auxiliary ingredients, such as Drunken Immortal Royal Jelly, Midnight Dew, and Century-Old Aged Wine, are rare, they are not a major problem.

With his current wealth and power, it's only a matter of time before he collects all the items.

However, the nine main ingredients almost drove him to despair:

The deep-sea blood dragon's nest is accompanied by thousand-year-old dragon blood coral, phoenix perching on parasol tree tears, nine netherworld marrow, thunder tribulation wood heart, and Taiyin cold toad venom;

A gluttonous stomach, a ten-thousand-year-old Xuanming tortoise shell, a ten-thousand-year-old demon tiger bone, and the life essence of a brewer.

Apart from one's own essence and blood, everything else is something that can only be obtained by chance.

If he hadn't read extensively, there would be some things that ordinary people would never have even heard of.

Fortunately, he already possessed the shell of the ten-thousand-year-old Xuanming tortoise and the bone of the ten-thousand-year-old demon tiger.

Next, they searched the treasuries of the four major families and found the Taiyin Cold Toad Venom, the Nine Nether Earth Marrow, and the Thunder Tribulation Wood Core.

He then purchased the thousand-year-old dragon blood coral at a high price from a century-old pharmacy.

However, the two main medicines, Phoenix's Tears and Gluttonous Stomach, remain nowhere to be found.

He finally understood why the Seven Supreme Paths had been abandoned.

To gather so many rare and precious materials for a mere Transcendent Realm martial artist, with only a 10% success rate—

No one would do a business that loses money.

Dusk, inside the Lu family mansion courtyard.

The setting sun painted the courtyard wall a dark red, and the fragrance of osmanthus blossoms drifted faintly in the evening breeze.

Lu Ming sat quietly by the stone table, drinking tea, a hint of helplessness flashing in his eyes.

In the past few days, he had given the Yin Hu Guards a death order, and they had almost searched Yin Hu County thoroughly, but they still had no trace of the remaining two main materials.

Meanwhile, the outside world is also in turmoil.

The Yellow Turban Army suffered repeated defeats, and it is said that its thirty-six armies could only hold out in thirty-six cities and wait for reinforcements.

And there were countless scattered soldiers like Yun Changfeng scattered throughout Dazhao.

However, although the Yellow Turban Rebellion was defeated, the people's hearts remained united, causing huge casualties to the Zhao army, and the entire situation in Zhao became increasingly chaotic.

Many worries put him in a bad mood, but good things eventually happened.

His heart stirred, and he peered at the scroll beneath his eyes:

[Martial Arts: Nine Heavens Thunder Roar (Low-grade Earth-level Skill Book; Perfected 39999/40000)]

[Martial Skill: Dragon-Slaying Sword (Low-grade Earth Rank; Perfected 6000/40000)]

[Martial Arts: Tranquil Wave Strategy (Low-grade Earth-level Manual; Mastery 2000/30000)]

"Thunder roars from the heavens—is it finally coming to a perfect end?"

As he murmured softly, the numbers on the scroll flickered slightly—

[Martial Arts: Nine Heavens Thunder Roar (Low-grade Earthly Book; Perfected 40000/40000)] →

[Talent: Tiger's Roar Thunder Prison (Supreme)]

"roar--!"

A powerful tiger roar exploded within Lu Ming's body, causing his internal organs to tremble slightly.

Dark golden tiger-shaped thunder patterns gradually appeared on the surface of his bones, flickering with his heartbeat, like a thunder tiger sleeping in his bones awakening.

"Bone conceals thunder from the heavens, a single thought transforms into a tiger's prison—thunder and fire burn my mortal body, forging my form through a hundred kalpas—"

Countless pieces of information about this talent kept flashing through my mind.

As the tiger roared, countless bolts of lightning and fire burst forth from its bones, shooting out like thousands of tiny lightning bolts towards its limbs and bones.

Wherever it passed, the skin and flesh trembled, and the tendons and veins tightened.

He felt waves of numbness wash over him, and his already strong physique was growing at a slow but steady pace.

"Tiger's Roar in Thunder Prison—it can constantly temper the body and enhance physical strength!"

He opened his eyes, his gaze filled with disbelief.

Although his cultivation of the seven unique skills left him riddled with wounds, his physical strength had already reached its peak.

Otherwise, Su Qingsi, Yun Shuying, and the others wouldn't have been able to see through his abnormality as soon as they met.

And now, under the influence of Tiger Roar Thunder Prison, his physique is still increasing.

Does this mean that there is no limit to his physical strength?

Thinking of this, his calm heart was finally stirred.

But soon his face stiffened, and a trickle of blood slowly oozed from the corner of his mouth, glowing with a dark red light in the twilight.

"Damn it—the higher one's cultivation level, the closer one is to death?"

He pressed his hand to his chest, forcibly calming the restless blood and qi within him, his face extremely pale.

The greater the power of thunder and fire, the more intense the conflict with the Yin Demon Blood became. Even the Moon Laurel Toad Marrow, which had always served as a harmonizing agent, showed signs of conflict with it.

"The Great Yellow Heaven Law—it can't be delayed any longer!"

He leaned on the edge of the table, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth onto the bluestone floor, his muttered voice spreading in the twilight.

"We're here, we're here—"

Just then, a series of chaotic footsteps came from outside.

The sounds of gongs and drums mingled with shouts, creating a particularly jarring noise in the twilight.

Lu Ming frowned.

Since he took control of Yinhu County, few people have dared to make such a commotion outside the Lu residence.

"Knock knock knock—!"

As the gongs and drums sounded, a joyous announcement followed: "Congratulations, Lord Lu, on your promotion to Acting Registrar!"

Lu Ming raised an eyebrow, stepped out of the courtyard gate, and looked outside.

Liu San, banging a gong and beaming with smiles, bowed and scraped before Lu Ming, congratulating him, "Congratulations, Lord Lu! Lord Liu has specially secured the appointment of Acting Registrar for you—a position that Headman Wang dreamed of his entire life!"

He smiled broadly, but his feet shifted slightly, looking somewhat uneasy.

Behind him, two young constables, carrying official robes, seals, and two brocade boxes, kept their eyes down and remained silent, not daring to make the slightest unnecessary movement.

Not far away, countless wealthy people gathered to watch the spectacle, their eyes filled with awe.

"Come in."

Lu Ming replied indifferently.

A slightly embarrassed smile flashed across Liu San's face. He winked at the two people behind him and followed them inside.

After placing the items on the table, Liu San pointed to one of the brocade boxes and said, "Lord Lu, Lord Liu heard that you are searching for the Phoenix Perching on the Wutong Tree Tears. He happened to have some treasured in his collection, so he sent them to you."

Lu Ming raised an eyebrow, a hint of a half-smile playing on his lips amidst his delight: "Oh—Lord Liu is so generous?"

Liu San's smile froze. He recalled how Liu Zhiyuan had hesitated for a long time before leaving, clutching the brocade box. His lips twitched, and he was speechless for a moment.

It took him a while to come to his senses. He took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Lu Ming: "This is a letter that Lord Liu asked me to pass on. Please take a look."
