Mysterious World: I Have a Lost Heavenly Court

The next day, afternoon.

In the secluded courtyard where Lu Changqing lived.

At this moment, he was shirtless, holding the celestial weapon sword blank in his left hand and a sizable iron hammer in his right, constantly striking the sword blank against the flames released by Qingyun.

Meanwhile, the materials he had collected earlier had already been ground into powder, and he continued to incorporate them into the sword blank while hammering it.

Powdered razor mantis legs, poisonous rat teeth, and moss-killing agents...

Qingyun watched from the sidelines, her heart pounding with shock, inwardly grumbling:

"Young Master, what material is this sword blank made of?"

"My natal fire and the charcoal fire burned and scorched for hours, yet they didn't turn into water!"

"It even requires the young master to keep hammering it hard to barely change its shape."

"this..."

Qingyun was surprised, but not curious.

As the young master's personal maid, there were many things she didn't need to know unless he told her.

All she knew was that the young master was the young master, and that was enough.

The crimson flames flickered, casting an unpredictable glow on Lu Changqing's focused face.

After countless taps, Lu Changqing's previously frozen expression suddenly lit up with joy!

He let out a low shout and slammed his right hand down like a hammer!

"Bang!"

After a muffled thud, he let out a long breath and loosened his grip on the hammer, which now had a chipped edge.

Then, gripping the slightly hot hilt of the sword tightly with his left hand, he pulled out the sword blank and plunged it into the cold water that had been prepared beforehand.

"laugh--"

A puff of white smoke rose up.

"Young Master, it's done?!" Qingyun strode forward and approached Lu Changqing, looking at the winding sword in the bucket, its body rippling with the water.

Despite his exhaustion, Lu Changqing maintained a smile as he drew his longsword and looked up.

A dark light shimmered on the blade.

Both bluish-green and dark purple toxins are present.

One can vaguely see pure white smoke and dark black energy intertwining on the sword's spine, neither encroaching on the other, forming an unusual balance.

The cracks at the broken sword's edge were filled by Lu Changqing using the best ore the Lu family could obtain.

At this moment, dark gold patterns appeared at the crack, like blood vessels, exuding a vibrant aura.

The two broken pieces of the sword were firmly connected together.

Lu Changqing looked at the blade and found it to be quite beautiful, like a work of art!

Moreover, since I forged it myself, it's exceptionally easy to use, and I love it very much!

He switched to holding the sword in his right hand, and with a jolt of his arm, his blood and spiritual energy flowed into the blade.

"Buzz—"

The sword suddenly trembled, its sound like a dragon's roar, clear and resonant, lingering for several breaths before dissipating.

"What a fine sword!" Qingyun couldn't help but exclaim, his eyes shining. "Young Master, this sword is absolutely a formidable weapon! Looking across the entire Black Mountain County, I dare say it ranks among the best!"

Lu Changqing was even more delighted upon hearing this: "Now I'm about to break through to the Qi Refining stage, and I've also obtained a spirit sword."

"Is now the perfect time to get pregnant and rest?"

Qingyun nodded earnestly: "Of course!"

"The longer a spirit sword is nurtured, and the earlier the process begins, the better!"

"Young Master, how about I teach you the Soul-Scorching Sun Sword Technique right now?"

Lu Changqing: "That would be perfect!"

Qingyun had already told him that this sword technique came about by accident and was related to his inheritance.

Even in the prefectural city, it is not inferior.

In Heishan County, it even surpasses all others!

He naturally wanted to learn this level of swordsmanship as soon as possible!

...

...

The setting sun cast its golden glow over the courtyard.

Lu Changqing stood under the eaves, slightly opening his mouth, and spat out his natal spirit sword, which he named "Pure Yang".

With a thought in his mind.

The small sword, no bigger than the palm of his hand, suddenly accelerated and slashed at the branches of the locust tree, which was several meters high, to his right!

"Rip—"

Several branches snapped and fell downwards.

This wasn't the end of it; Lu Changqing had another idea.

No branches or leaves fell to the ground; they were repeatedly pierced by the white light.

Then it broke and shattered again, and when it finally landed, it had become light, floating debris.

"Young Master is amazing!"

"To show such talent so early in swordsmanship is absolutely genius!"

Seeing Lu Changqing's impressive display of skill after mastering the basics of swordsmanship, Qingyun couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement. She gasped and praised him without reservation.

Lu Changqing raised his hand, and his palm-sized natal spirit sword was retrieved and placed in his palm.

At this moment, the blade is enlarged proportionally, transforming into a normal sword capable of slashing and injuring enemies.

He raised his hand and waved it, creating a sharp whistling sound, displaying his fierceness!

"It really works!" Lu Changqing twirled his sword, then sheathed it, swallowed it, and continued to nourish it with both spiritual power and blood.

No wonder they say fists fear the young and strong, while sticks fear the old.

Weapons, once mastered, can really make things twice as effective with half the effort, allowing you to do ten times the work with one unit of strength!

"Now I've made a breakthrough in my fist techniques and have also started learning swordsmanship."

"Now we have enough means to kill enemies whether it's in close combat or from a distance using spirit swords and spells!"

"If I could go back to last night and face the Right Protector's sword formation... no, I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to use his sword formation, and I would be able to easily kill him!"

Upon realizing this, Lu Changqing's smile widened even further.

As Lu Changqing forged his weapon, he not only swung the hammer but also felt the force of a "fist."

Therefore, the Five Yin Falling God Fist was enhanced and improved during the process of forging the spirit sword.

【…】

Nowadays, Lu Changqing's martial arts panel and Taoist magic panel have become remarkably luxurious.

[Dao Realm: Qi Refining Realm]

[Body Realm: Bone Refining Realm]

[Taoist Techniques: Gentle Breeze Technique (Proficient, 88/2000), Gale Technique (Proficient, 195/2000), Soul-Burning Great Sun Sword Technique (Beginner, 11/500)]

Martial Arts Skills: Hundred Birds Stance (Proficient, 266/2000), Hundred Ghosts Illuminating God Step (Minor Success, 351/5000), Five Yin Falling God Fist (Minor Success, 3/5000)

Lu Changqing now cultivates both martial arts and Taoism, and has found a place for both.

He has mastered two minor martial arts techniques.

This level of strength, while not top-tier in the entire Heishan County, is definitely above average.

Furthermore, it is enhanced by the power of pure Yang.

Ordinary masters of bone and qi cultivation are no match for him!

Overjoyed, he let Qingyun wipe his body.

...

...

Moon stars are rare.

inside the house.

The candlelight flickered as Lu Changqing picked up some food with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

But what was on my mind was worry about my parents.

Ninety percent of the Zheng family's mine issue has been resolved, with only Zheng Xiuming, the old dog of the Zheng family, having escaped.

The others are no longer a concern.

However, they did not receive any news about their parents from the other members of the Zheng family.

It's been almost a month since I left home.

Based on the speed of experts in the Blood Exchange Realm and Liquid Condensation Realm, taking the fastest route would be enough for one and a half round trips.

But now, not a single message has come back...

Just then, there was a rapid knocking at the gate.

Lu Erwa's voice rang out: "Third Young Master! Third Young Master!"

"We've got news about the master and mistress!!"

Lu Changqing jumped up from the chair, then ran quickly to the door and opened the courtyard gate.

Lu Erwa's expression was urgent and excited. "Huang Hu from the Black Tiger Gang sent word that he has some leads on the master and madam's whereabouts!"

Lu Changqing: "Where is he?!"

Lu Erwa: "He sent someone to inform us."

"The messenger said it was the leader of the Black Tiger Gang, who had colluded with Zheng Xiuming, the eldest son of the Zheng family, and had done things related to the master and madam!"

Lu Changqing immediately said, "Call in some men, and also, call Uncle Wu!"

"Come with me to the Black Tiger Gang!"
