Mysterious World: I Have a Lost Heavenly Court

The next day.

Lu Changqing, dressed in thin clothes, sat cross-legged on the bed, practicing his daily breathing exercises.

After less than a quarter of an hour, he slowly opened his eyes.

With a slight thought, the information on one's own screen appears in the mind.

[Dao Realm: Qi Concentration Realm]

[Physical Realm: Skin Training Realm]

[Taoist Arts: Gentle Breeze Technique (20/500), Gale Technique (Beginner, 103/500)]

Martial Arts: Hundred Birds Stance (77/500), Hundred Ghosts Illuminating God Step (Beginner, 129/500), Five Yin Falling God Fist (Beginner, 24/500)

[Supernatural Powers: None]

[Paranormal Activity Point: 9]

Storage space: 10m³

...

After seeing the changes in himself, Lu Changqing felt that the progress was very obvious.

It's only been a few days.

He not only solved the problem of the black mark, but also achieved success in both Taoism and martial arts.

Especially the latter.

Under the rigorous training in the Silent Wood Forest, his skills have greatly improved!

He is now completely different from when he first transmigrated.

Considering the efficiency of progress made last night at the Taikoo Ruins.

Five to ten days is sufficient to progress from the beginner level to the next stage of footwork.

Lu Changqing believed that even the highly talented maid Qingyun couldn't match his rate of progress!

The only drawback is that the speed of cultivation is far too slow compared to martial arts.

"I wonder if there are any treasures in the ancient ruins that can enhance one's spiritual power."

"But judging from the descriptions of many monsters, spiritual plants, and treasures, it should exist as a celestial ruin."

"We can only wait until we are a bit stronger, kill that giant with the broken sword, and then go check out the paths behind it."

Lu Changqing got out of bed, walked to the tea table, poured himself a sip of water, and slowly savored it.

His mind was now filled with the image of the celestial weapon in the hands of the broken-sword giant...

Along with longing, there was also some apprehension and worry.

It wasn't out of fear of the giants' strength.

Instead, he was thinking.

After he gets his hands on this, who should he give it to forge?

The Zheng family and the Lu family have a century-long friendship.

If we really want to trace it back, we can go back to the generation of the original owner's grandfather's father.

But in the end, due to the struggle for interests, entanglements and betrayals arose.

Regarding this celestial weapon, he had a very simple idea yesterday in the ancient ruins.

Once you get it, forge it, turn it into a weapon, and that's it.

In reality, the forging process is extremely difficult.

First, the blacksmith needs to have a solid foundation and strong skills.

Secondly, they are required to be sufficiently loyal and tight-lipped.

Combining the two is not easy to find.

This problem was giving Lu Changqing a real headache.

Just then, light footsteps came from outside the door, along with Qingyun's joyful shouts.

"Young Master! Good news, Young Master!"

Lu Changqing looked up and saw Qingyun, who was wearing a light purple gauze dress, stepping into the room.

Her face lit up with a beaming smile, radiating sweetness: "Young Master, the Eldest Young Master and the Second Young Miss have sent a message home!"

"Regarding the problems at the mine, after a day and night of their efforts, much of the trouble has been contained!"

"We also owe a great deal to those stones you gave us, Third Young Master, which helped us capture all the lurking monsters!"

After hearing this, Lu Changqing's lips curved into a smile.

As the third young master of the Lu family, he is strictly bound to the Lu family.

The fact that the problems at the mine are now being contained and gradually resolved means that things are good for the Lu family and for us as well.

"That's good, then I can rest assured."

"As long as there are no problems at the mine, and we resolve the trouble caused by those ungrateful bastards from the Zheng family, everything will be fine!"

Qingyun nodded, agreeing with Lu Changqing's words: "Yes, those people are really despicable!"

Instead of banding together and colluding to maximize their profits, they're actually plotting to betray us!

"Once the master and mistress return, the Zheng family will definitely be in deep trouble!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changqing's joy subsided slightly. After a moment, he asked Qingyun, "Qingyun, why haven't Father and Mother returned after so long?"

Four more days have passed since the Ancient Ruins event was triggered.

The days may seem long, but they're not that long.

But for a martial artist at the third realm or a Taoist at the third realm...

The time lost was not short.

Qingyun shook her head: "I don't know."

"But young master, don't worry, the master and madam will definitely be safe."

"They are powerful themselves, and they also have the talisman that our Lu family has nurtured for many years. Perhaps they were delayed because they found something that could cure the black mark."

After hearing this, Lu Changqing agreed.

In summary, the story begins with the ancient ruins and continues to this day.

Essentially, things are still stable and improving!

The problems with the mine and the Zheng family need to be resolved.

The best is yet to come!

...

have a break.

Qingyun began preparing her own medicinal bath.

Even when Lu Changqing was practicing his stance training alone in the courtyard, he could still smell the bitter medicinal soup he was brewing.

This is what makes it more difficult for a martial artist compared to a Taoist practitioner.

The difficulty in cultivating the Tao lies in: lineage and innate talent.

The difficulty of learning martial arts lies in: enduring hardship and spending a lot of money.

With Qingyun's talent, she should have already broken through to the bone-refining level in martial arts, or even reached the realm of a senior bone-refining expert.

However, because the skin-refining realm needs to be tempered to the ultimate level, the progress is slow.

Of course, Lu Changqing fully understood this.

Because if it were up to him to choose.

He will also strive to reach the pinnacle at every level.

"squeak."

The wooden door to the side room opened, and Qingyun's rosy, delicate face peeked out from inside. She whispered, "Young Master, Qingyun wants to take a medicinal bath for an hour."

Lu Changqing nodded, "Alright, you can go to the bar in peace."

In the simplest terms, training your skin means training your entire body's skin to be more resilient than cowhide!

When you've trained to the point where ordinary people's swords and spears can't penetrate your defenses, that's when you've succeeded!

There are many methods.

For example, the Wild Boar Stance uses a special breathing method combined with movements, like an earthworm constantly churning, to hammer and refine the skin, allowing the blood and qi to continuously cleanse and strengthen the epidermis.

Further steps are needed to lay down iron sand and spikes to continuously enhance the effects of the training.

The highly stimulating medicinal bath that Qingyun is currently using is the final and most difficult step in skin refining:

He cultivated his entire body!

When taking a medicinal bath, the scalp must be immersed in the medicinal tub.

This step is to solidify the results of previous practice.

This is also to ensure that the body has no weaknesses.

Lu Changqing looked at the closed wooden door of the side room and quickly took out the iron-fleshed fruit pulp that he had already ground from the jade tablet.

The smell of rust was overwhelming, and it felt like my throat was being irritated by it.

Without the slightest hesitation, he also took off his clothes and began to apply starch to his body.

The ancient ruins are wonderful, with many treasures.

But for those close to them, these things that appear out of nowhere are really hard to explain.

For example, the Killer's Kernel, and this Iron-Clad Fruit.

Therefore, while Qingyun is cultivating, Lu Changqing should also hurry up and digest this treasure!

Lu Changqing had only applied half of the Iron Armor Fruit Pulp when he began to feel various pains sweeping across his skin.

Needle prick...

The pain of a sharp blade slicing through the skin...

If it weren't for the pain of digesting pure yang energy before.

He might really not be able to withstand the side effects of this mountain of knives and sea of ​​swords!

Lu Changqing clenched his teeth and smeared the remaining ironwood pulp all over his body, not missing a single drop.

Then, with a slight tremor in his body, he slowly but precisely began to practice the Wild Boar Stance, striving to make the skin-refining effect better while the Iron Armor Fruit actively tempered the outer skin.

...

Time flew by, and three-quarters of an hour passed.

Lu Changqing shakily got up, picked up a medicine bottle from the table on the right side of the courtyard, poured out two bright red pills, and put them into his mouth.

In a short while, the blood and qi began to recover rapidly, continuously nourishing the skin that was already numb from the pain, especially the bleeding skin.

After a few breaths, Lu Changqing felt the pain begin to subside slowly, new skin grew rapidly, and a cool and comfortable feeling enveloped his whole body.

"This is the feeling of physical satisfaction after cultivation!"

He put down the medicine bottle. "The pills are also very important."

"A special Qi and Blood Stasis Removal Pill for those who are training their skin costs ten taels of silver outside."

"If I were a martial arts disciple from a poor background, I would probably fight tooth and nail for just one. How could I be like this now, casually popping two into my mouth after training every day?"

Now that Qingyun was taking a medicinal bath and no one was serving her, Lu Changqing walked to the other side alone, scooped water from the bucket, poured it on his body, and kept rinsing himself.

After washing up, Lu Changqing looked down and was surprised to find that his skin had become firmer and whiter!

The force has also increased significantly!

He had a kind of illusion...

I feel like I could kill a bull right now!

[Martial Arts Skill: Hundred Birds Stance (219/500)]

Upon examining the information on the jade pendant itself, Lu Changqing was overjoyed!

With the help of the Iron Armor Fruit and his cultivation of stance training, he actually reached the mid-stage of the Skin Refining Realm!

No wonder it felt like it could kill a bull...

The body underwent too much change at once, causing the brain to not fully accept the physical changes.

"Iron fruit, what a great stuff!"

This further solidified Lu Changqing's resolve to eliminate the skeleton soldiers.

He had just put on his underwear when he heard a noise coming from the wooden door of the side room.

A few breaths later, the wooden door opened.

Qingyun blushed and said excitedly:

"Young Master!"

"Light Cloud is complete! Water and Fire Immortal Robe!!"

Then, Qingyun raised two fingers of her left hand and joined them together as a sword, from which a crimson-orange flame emerged.

He drew his sword across his right arm, flames swirling around it and burning continuously.

But the flames couldn't harm Qingyun in the slightest; they only made her fair skin turn slightly red!

Upon seeing this, Lu Changqing trembled and his face lit up with joy.

He strode forward and picked up the forearm, which was extinguished, slightly red, but undamaged.

"Hahaha!"

"Well done, Qingyun! Congratulations! You've reached the pinnacle of martial arts!"

As his personal maid, Qingyun's close relationship with him goes without saying.

In a sense, Qingyun's increased strength also means that his own strength has increased!

How could he not be happy at this moment?

Qingyun was flattered by Lu Changqing, and a hint of satisfaction flashed across her face.

She said with a mixture of anticipation and joy:

"Young Master, from now on Qingyun will have even more strength to protect you!"

"besides..."

"Young Master, I have gained some insights."

"Why not strike while the iron is hot and let Qingyun give you some more pointers on the key points of skin training!"
