Chapter 105 Soaring Through the Heavens and Earth, Energy Shield

Lu Chen went into the courtyard and took a deep breath.

The night was deep, and the bright moon had set in the west.

Lu Chen glanced at the full moon, and vaguely felt that the moon seemed—somewhat different. But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was different.

Shaking his head, Lu Chen closed the door, leaped up, and stepped on a thin layer of energy disc that had condensed in mid-air, soaring into the sky.

"Although my body weight has increased significantly, this feeling of lightness has become stronger, as if the constraints of heaven and earth on me have become smaller."

Lu Chen quickly sensed the difference.

It's even faster!

He arrived at an altitude of 10,000 meters, where the temperature was tens of degrees below zero, but he felt nothing at all, only a sense of coolness.

"boom!"

He moved swiftly across the vast expanse of land, using the technique of "Instant Shadow" to its fullest extent. In the blink of an eye, he appeared a thousand meters away, then suddenly rose higher, only to reappear a few thousand meters below in the next second.

This entire space, encompassing both the upper and lower realms, seemed to be under his control, and he could appear in any corner at any time.

"Not only are we faster and more agile, but we also have a better grasp of the subtle control over energy and the orientation of our bodies."

Lu Chen soared through the sky, feeling the vastness of the world and the freedom to roam.

"Is this what the poem 'Free and Easy Wandering' describes: 'Soaring above the clouds, bearing the blue sky'? There's a saying that a broad mind makes the world vast, but if one can see even more expansively and broaden one's horizons, the mind becomes even broader!"

A sense of pride and magnanimity gradually rose within him, like a carefree roc soaring ninety thousand miles into the sky.

"Since my energy can leave my body and allow me to take flight, I can use it for attack. Creating something like a wind blade should be feasible, right?"

He was currently suspended tens of thousands of meters in the air, his body completely still, with a thin energy disc half a meter wide beneath his feet, and his clothes also remaining motionless under the protection of the energy shield.

He opened his palm, and a wisp of golden light appeared, attempting to condense into a moon-shaped object with sharp edges under his control.

The condensation speed of this lunar disc, which is less than ten centimeters in diameter, is not slow, but it is very thin and transparent.

Lu Chen frowned.

Insufficient energy!

He only has two thousand strands of energy in his body, which is not enough to condense a palm-sized, solid moon disc!

Let alone something the size of a palm, even something the size of an egg would be difficult to find.

He changed his approach and chose only a thin, round wheel that shimmered with a faint golden light.

Lu Chen flicked his hand and sent it flying. The wheel spun rapidly as it flew out, but it only flew a dozen meters before it began to disintegrate and then vanished into the world.

"Is this the only distance you can maintain?"

He took a pebble out of his pocket, imbued it with energy, and the pebble glowed with golden light before he threw it out.

"Whoosh!"

Rocks smaller than eggs pierced through the clouds, creating holes and producing violent sonic booms, followed by rings of sonic boom clouds.

Lu Chen stepped forward and followed closely, watching as the golden light on the stone, even after flying thousands of meters away, showed no signs of dissipating.

He raised his hand and threw another iron bead, shattering the stone in front of him. The golden light then exploded suddenly along with the stone, sounding like a muffled thunderclap in the air.

"We still need to rely on attaching to a physical entity to attack. Pure energy will dissipate if it leaves my body and exceeds a certain distance."

Disperse.

He remembered the novel Battle Through the Heavens that he had read before, in which there was a move called "Buddha's Wrath Lotus," which fused two completely different flames together to unleash terrifying power.

"My solar power and lunar power are completely opposite forces. They coexist harmoniously within my body, but if they are out of my control, they may go out of control and cause a violent explosion."

He thought about it and didn't dare to test it.

He was afraid of killing himself.

Just thinking about it made him abandon the idea, as if he were being pricked by a thorn in his back.

After Lu Chen finished his test, he began testing the condensation ability shield.

Since they can condense energy discs at their feet, it's normal for them to condense shields on their arms, in front of them, and behind them.

"It needs to condense quickly, be solid, and most importantly, look cool!"

Lu Chen imagined a knife cutting into his stomach. With a thought, energy surged forth, and an irregularly shaped hemispherical shield, resembling a tortoise shell with a raised center, appeared in front of his stomach.

He tried punching the shield; it held for a moment, then shattered.

"Their defensive capabilities are barely acceptable."

Lu Chen felt that the shield's defensive capabilities were mediocre, its appearance was a bit ugly, and the speed at which it condensed into shape was too slow.

What's the point of it if it only appears after the opponent's knife has already pierced their stomach?

Practice more!

"It's almost time. I've almost exhausted all my energy. I'll recover a bit and then head back."

He sat down cross-legged, as steadily as if he were on flat ground.

With his eyes closed, Lu Chen immediately sensed a change.

"Why does it feel like there are more energy points in the sun than before? Is it because my strength has increased, so my perception is also stronger, allowing me to detect more energy?"

He was somewhat happy and didn't think much of it. Instead, he quickly entered a meditative state, his belly rising and falling slowly.

Golden specks of light entered Lu Chen's body.

In the distance, a wisp of purple mist rose from the east and entered Lu Chen's body with each breath.

About half an hour later, Lu Chen opened his eyes.

"Awesome!"

He stretched, feeling refreshed, then aimed and plunged into the sea of ​​clouds below.

Back home, Lu Ming and Lu Tang had just opened their eyes and ran to Lu Chen's room at almost the same time.

"Brother, brother, I think I've broken through!"

"Brother, me too!"

The two approached Lu Chen, their faces beaming with joy, chattering excitedly about their breakthroughs.

Lu Chen was very surprised.

The two broke through together?

"You mean, last night you suddenly felt your mind work better, like you became smarter, and then it was like you had an epiphany, completely mastering breathing techniques, visualization, and meditation?"

"Mmm!" Lu Tang nodded emphatically, a proud look on her already chubby face, tilting her head back as if she wanted Lu Chen to praise her.

"sharp!"

Lu Chen chuckled and ruffled Lu Tang's hair, then looked at the two of them: "Now that you've both successfully mastered these skills, I'll impart to you unparalleled martial arts techniques. Once you learn them, one day you'll be able to soar through the heavens and dive into the earth, becoming omnipotent!"

Lu Chen said exaggeratedly.

Xiao Tang and Xiao Ming's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Brother, will I be able to fly after I learn?"

"That won't do. It won't be that fast. You all need to cultivate to a certain level first!"

"Can you fly, brother?" Xiao Tang looked at her brother expectantly, her round eyes full of anticipation.

Lu Ming also looked at Lu Chen, and was very pleasantly surprised.

It can fly!

This is the dream of so many young people!

"I'll show you what I'm capable of today!"

Lu Chen was in high spirits and immediately began to demonstrate in the room. He lightly leaped up, then stepped onto the disc and levitated through the air, making the two of them gasp in amazement. Lu Tang even clapped her hands until they were red.

"When you're as strong as me, you'll be able to fly, soaring high in the sky to watch the sunrise! Then you can go wherever you want!"

Where are you going!

Lu Chen painted a rosy picture for them, and Xiao Tang and Xiao Ming were so full that they didn't even want to eat breakfast. They just wanted to start practicing the Qi Refining Technique taught by their older brother right away.

"Remember this: from now on, this Qi Refining Technique can only be practiced in secluded places. Your strength is still too weak. If you are discovered, it will easily attract envy, understand? You must not say anything about the Qi Refining Technique outside, not to anyone else. Only the two of you need to know!"

After teaching them, Lu Chen gave them very serious instructions.

"Mmm! Don't worry, brother, we definitely won't tell anyone!"

After Lu Tang finished speaking, she covered her mouth tightly with both hands and looked at Lu Ming.

Lu Ming nodded emphatically.

Lu Chen smiled.

"Oh, by the way, I left two porcelain vases on your table tonight. Go and get them!"

"Oh, what did you put in, brother?"

Lu Tang ran off quickly, and when she returned, she was carrying a bottle in each hand.

"Brother, what's inside?"

Seeing that Lu Ming had also returned, Lu Chen said, "This bottle contains Qi and Blood Pills, which can enhance Qi and blood. This bottle contains Body Strengthening Pills, which can increase foundation and strengthen physique. They are both used to speed up cultivation. Each of you should take one pill a day, and then go practice your skills."

"Oh, thank you, brother! You're the best!"

Lu Tang called out with a grin.

Lu Chen shook his head and watched the two leave laughing and joking. Then, Lu Chen found two large jars, put the Qi and Blood Pills and Body Strengthening Pills he had previously refined into them, and went to the village chief Lu Xiande's house.

Lu Xiande looked at Lu Chen with a strange expression.

Lu Chen assumed that Lu Xiande was still heartbroken over the child's situation, so he didn't pay much attention. He simply explained his purpose and the effects of the pills, and asked him to have someone notify the elderly people in the village to line up in order and receive one pill each.

After distributing all the pills in the ancestral hall and watching them take them, Lu Chen heard such a dense barrage of system notifications for the first time.

The jingling sound kept going on and on.

His mouth was almost numb from smiling.

He distributed all 1024 pills, and almost everyone in the village received one.

Those who didn't receive theirs, after registering their names, immediately went back, restarted the furnace, and refined two more batches of Body Strengthening Pills, totaling 52.

One grain.

Everyone was satisfied.

They all felt the difference in their bodies.

Lu Chen was also very satisfied.

1076 pills were exchanged for a life value of 10760.

Win-win situation, we're so happy!
