Start your cultivation journey by allocating points to your Destiny.

Lu Chen searched for a while and continued uphill, afraid of being discovered by the other party.

Before long, he could vaguely hear voices, getting closer and closer.

"Holy crap, it seems they've come to my tower? What a coincidence! Could they have spotted me?"

Lu Chen's heart pounded, and he tried to keep his breathing as low as possible.

Before long, he sensed someone walking uphill.

Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly continued climbing the stairs, being extremely careful and stealthy.

He climbed to the top of the tower, thought for a moment, and then quietly peeked out through the hole. Finding no one outside, he simply climbed out and reached the top of the tower.

He was worried that the person would check every floor to make sure no one was there.

It's safer to go out.

Sure enough, the person looked around and, finding no one, whistled down.

Before long, Lu Chen heard footsteps.

There should be two people.

He dared not breathe deeply at all, and even suppressed his heartbeat.

Fortunately, the wind wasn't too strong today, and the rustling of the birch trees next to the tower slightly masked his movements.

"He's not here yet? Are you alone?"

A somewhat effeminate voice rang out.

Lu Chen could tell that this person must have some status; his tone was cold and condescending.

"No, it's probably because it's quite far away and something came up that delayed me."

This was another person's voice, more powerful and resonant, but very respectful, with a hint of flattery.

Then came a long silence.

Lu Chen was speechless.

Why are you all here making contact but not saying anything, just remaining silent? What does that mean?

There's such a huge sun right above me!

He slowly turned his head left and right, scanning the entire tower forest; there was no one there.

After a while, the deep voice spoke again: "Sir, I heard that something seems to have happened in Yuncheng County."

"Yes, I've already sent people to investigate. Whoever it is, they're doomed. Anyone who dares to lay a hand on my people has some nerve!"

The effeminate voice was very dissatisfied, and with a cold snort, the person opposite her began to sweat.

"Why isn't Wang Xiong here yet? He's usually the first one to arrive, how dare he be late this time? Let's not wait for him!"

Lu Chen squatted on the top of the tower, his eyes darting around.

Unexpectedly, it really was the person Wang Xiong wanted to see!

Among those people below, there should be one who is Qingzhu!

Based on what Hao Cheng and Wang Xiong said, Qingzhu is a person with a sharp voice, so the person with the soft voice below must be Qingzhu!

The soft, feminine voice said coldly, "Do you know why I called you here?"

The burly man shook his head: "This humble one does not know."

"During this period, one of our branches in Shahu County was wiped out, and unexpectedly, our location in Yuncheng County was also taken down! The temple is already very angry! In addition, the situation in the north has been very bad these past two years, with rebellions everywhere, which has made our business very difficult! The temple has decided to have you take on more responsibility!"

The burly man felt a jolt in his heart.

Should we take on more responsibility?

He became somewhat excited.

"Lord Qing, don't worry, I will definitely do my job well and will never let you down!"

He immediately expressed his opinion.

The Azure Lord was quite satisfied: "Hmm, given that everyone in these two counties was killed, we feel that your cultivation levels are still too low, so we need to greatly improve your strength. Tianlei, you're at the Marrow Cleansing Realm now, right? You're the strongest among these three counties. What stage are you at now?"

"Reporting to Lord Qing, I just broke through to the peak of the Marrow Cleansing Realm at the end of last year."

Zheng Tianlei said respectfully, his eyes revealing barely suppressed excitement and agitation.

"Hmm, not bad. I'll teach you the White Ape Breathing Technique now to help you break through!"

Qingzhu patted Zheng Tianlei on the shoulder.

Zheng Tianlei was so excited that his body was trembling.

"Thank you, thank you, Master Qing!" He bowed to Master Qing, his eyes reddening.

innate!

This is a realm that so many people dream of!

He had fantasized about it countless times and had even tried to find a breathing technique through his own channels.

However, let alone breathing techniques, he couldn't even find a slightly complete martial arts manual, let alone breathing techniques.

Unexpectedly, after two of his colleagues died, heaven suddenly sent down a timely rain!

Hahahaha!

It's time for me, Zheng Tianlei, to rise to power!

That's just luck!

He clenched his fists, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.

Above them, Lu Chen couldn't help but smile.

I never expected that after thinking it over and over again, even trying to create my own breathing method, I would find it right under my nose without any effort at all!

This is like a pie falling from the sky!

He suppressed his excitement, becoming even more cautious, holding his breath, afraid of being noticed by those below.

The leaves of the birch tree beside me rustled in the wind.

"Listen carefully! The breathing technique is..."

Qingzhu explained the breathing technique to Zheng Tianlei in detail.

Lu Chen listened intently, not daring to miss a single word.

"When practicing the breathing method, sit cross-legged with your palms facing upwards. Yes, just like that! Take a deep breath until you can't inhale anymore, clear your mind, and feel that faint, almost imperceptible spark of light! Then, circulate your entire body's Qi and blood, condensing a Qi and blood pill in your dantian, and ignite your Qi and blood with that spiritual light!"

"Qingzhu said slowly."

Zheng Tianlei then sat cross-legged on the ground and followed his instructions step by step.

"Now, this is the essence of the breathing technique. Listen carefully!"

Qingzhu cleared his throat.

Zheng Tianlei was energized.

Lu Chen pricked up his ears.

"There are techniques to breathing, methods to inhale, guiding the Qi into the mysterious realm, permeating the five internal organs. It rises to the Niwan point, descends to the Yongquan point, and flows into the Huangting point, circulating endlessly. When Qi flows, it becomes the Dao; when essence is preserved, it becomes treasure. Refining essence into Qi, expelling the old and taking in the new..."

As he spoke, he pointed out the pathways of the internal energy and some key points.

Lu Chen felt that he had benefited a lot!

Cool!

So cool!

The enemy is teaching him a lesson—who else gets this kind of treatment?

"Who's there! This is Tallinn, a sacred ground! How dare you be so insolent!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from not far away.

Lu Chen was startled.

He was completely focused on Qingzhu's teaching and had no idea that someone would come at this crucial moment and discover him.

Grass!

Almost instantly, he noticed that the people below had stopped teaching.

I've been discovered!

Without any hesitation, he adjusted the muscles in his face and subtly modified his bones, and another somewhat familiar face slowly took shape.

At the same time, he suddenly jumped to the other side.

Lu Chen walked on the tower, which was over twenty meters high, as if it were flat ground. His figure flashed and he appeared on the top of another tower.

"Bang!"

At the top of the tower, the Azure Lord's face was ashen.

How did someone manage to get here without me noticing?

He glanced at Zheng Tianlei, who was covered in cold sweat, then suddenly rushed out of the cave and chased after Lu Chen.

This person dared to eavesdrop on the breathing techniques in the temple; he must be killed!

"You all go and surround him, kill him! Don't let him escape!"

Qingzhu shouted to the monks below, then lightly touched the top of the tower, closing the distance with Lu Chen at an extremely fast speed.

Lu Chen was deeply shocked.

So fast?
