Mysterious World: I Have a Lost Heavenly Court

Chapter 41: Bone Refinement Completed, Searching Outside the City

The benefits that Qingfeng Temple brought to Heishan County spread throughout the city like the wind.

This is like an unstoppable trend that no individual can resist.

But Lu Changqing was certain that he would tell all his trusted relatives not to use the talisman activated by his blood essence!

Soon, Lu Changqing returned home, accompanied by Qingyun and the others.

They happened to run into Lu Ri, who was on his way to the mine.

"Big brother!" Lu Changqing smiled. "Are you healed?"

Lu Ri looked at Lu Changqing, his eyes momentarily unfocused, his expression wistful.

After all, in just two days, the troubles with the Zheng family and the mine that had been giving him headaches were all resolved.

It was his third brother, who had always caused him and his parents so much trouble, who solved the problem.

Even though it has already happened, Lu Ri still feels a bit unreal.

He responded, "Well, thanks to your abilities, little brother, my injury has improved a lot."

Lu Changqing couldn't help but smile as he listened to the words. "Everything is going smoothly at the mine. Erwa, the servants, and Chen Li are all watching over it."

"Big brother, are you still going over there?"

Lu Ri shook his head: "No."

"Didn't you bring news of my parents with Uncle Wu last night? I'm planning to go out of town to look for them."

Upon hearing this, Lu Changqing's smile gradually faded.

When he returned last night, he shared the news with Lu Ri and Lu Yue without reservation.

The two of them meant that they would discuss it further before making a decision.

After all, it is indeed nearing the end of the year, and the Lu family has just gone through another turmoil, so it is a time when they need manpower.

Lu Changqing did not participate in the conversation between the two elders.

His plan was to break through the Blood Exchange Realm, and then, whether by hunting demons or by using ancient relics, break through to the Condensation Liquid Realm.

He went straight out of the city to find his parents.

But he didn't expect that Lu Ri would be leaving today.

Lu Ri also looked at Wu Lin behind Lu Changqing: "Uncle Wu, I may have to trouble you to come with me."

Wu Lin naturally had no objections.

But in recent days, Lu Changqing has left a deep impression on him.

So, at that moment, he instinctively glanced at Lu Changqing.

The eldest brother is going out of the city to find his parents.

How could Lu Changqing refuse?

However, his strength is insufficient, and if he follows, he might become a burden.

"Brother, Uncle Wu, please be careful on the road."

"If you can't find it, come back soon."

Lu Ri nodded, his usual smile returning, and patted Lu Changqing's shoulder forcefully: "You brat, I really never thought that one day you'd be the one giving me these instructions!"

"rest assured!"

After a brief chat, Lu Ri led Wu Lin away.

Qingyun looked at Lu Changqing, who was gazing at the end of the street, and gently comforted him, "Young Master, with Steward Wu here, everything will be alright."

Lu Changqing looked away, his expression less tense, and said, "Mm."

"However, the current situation is strange, so I need to cultivate as soon as possible and break through."

Qingyun nodded in return: "Young Master, don't worry!"

"I'm sure I can keep up with you!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changqing couldn't help but chuckle.

He had no doubt about the truth of Qingyun's words.

Aside from the boost to his combat power brought about by the ancient ruins.

In terms of pure cultivation speed and talent, he is no match for Qingyun.

"I strongly suspect that Qingyun actually noticed something was wrong with herself a long time ago."

"They just don't say it."

"If Qingyun is given some spiritual medicine to increase her cultivation speed later, I'm afraid she won't be too surprised."

"Hmm... but this needs to be done gradually, it's unreasonable to take it all out at once."

...

Time flies, and half a month has passed.

Lu Ri and Wu Lin returned more than ten days ago.

Got nothing.

According to Zhao Dahu, there wasn't a single clue.

After hearing this, Lu Changqing chatted with his brother and sister for a long time, encouraging each other.

But he had a guess in his heart.

It is estimated that only those at the Condensation Realm, or even those using some "array" techniques, could detect the clues.

In the past two weeks, apart from this one matter, Lu Changqing has devoted all his efforts to exploring the ancient ruins of Danyun Land.

He has reaped a bountiful harvest from the Fire Tongue Grass, a spiritual plant that strengthens bones and muscles!

Meanwhile, various precious elixirs and medicinal baths, which are rare even for ordinary people, were used frantically during these five days.

Lu Changqing also swallowed the three pills given to him by the county magistrate.

...

On this day, in the courtyard.

In the courtyard, Lu Changqing, shirtless, sat cross-legged in a medicinal bath.

His eyes were closed, and a faint dark golden luster flowed beneath his skin.

The next instant, a torrent of intense heat, seemingly surging from the depths of his bones, suddenly swept over his entire body.

A moment later, the intense heat receded from the bone marrow, transforming into a cool, gentle stream that silently permeated the meridians.

Lu Changqing could clearly feel that his muscles had become tighter and more solid, but they were not as stiff as when he was training his skin before; they had become more resilient.

He stood up and looked down at his hands.

There were no earth-shattering changes on the surface of her skin, unlike when the Water and Fire Immortal Robe was made, which was as white and jade-like.

But when he clenched his fist, the dark golden luster beneath the skin on the back of his hand reappeared, like an extremely thin inner armor, hidden under the skin, subtle and unseen.

He tried to circulate his qi and blood, and threw a punch.

The punch was fierce, and a very short, explosive sound erupted in the air.

This punch did not use pure Yang energy, nor did it employ any martial arts techniques; it was purely physical strength.

But the speed and power of his punches are more than double what they were before the breakthrough!

This is Golden Hada!

And that's not all.

Lu Changqing suddenly realized something, closed his eyes, sat cross-legged on the ground again, and began to circulate the Qingfeng Technique.

The spiritual energy vortex in the dantian began to slowly rotate, and the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth flowed into the body like a trickle.

But this time, the speed and amount of the influx are completely different from before!

A cultivator at the Qi Refining Realm can only refine a limited amount of spiritual energy each day, depending on the width of their meridians and the capacity of their dantian.

Lu Changqing's talent for cultivation was unlocked by the futon; although his meridians were open, they were not particularly wide.

Normally, when practicing the Clear Breeze Technique, the feeling of spiritual energy entering the body is like sucking water through a bamboo tube. Although you can suck it up, it is laborious and the amount is small.

But now, the speed at which spiritual energy is flowing in is like replacing the bamboo tube with a copper tube!

Thicker, smoother, and more powerful!

He took a deep breath and allowed the spiritual energy to circulate through his body for a complete cycle.

As the spiritual energy flowed through his meridians, he could clearly feel that the inner walls of the meridians were wider and smoother than before.

It's the effect of the jade cord!

This means that the maximum amount of spiritual energy he can refine each day has more than doubled compared to before.

"Young Master, you..." Qingyun was also cultivating, but she stopped because she felt Lu Changqing's surging blood and qi.

Her eyes betrayed her surprise.

"It's widened, and it's broken through." Lu Changqing smiled with satisfaction. "Golden Skin Jade Meridian, it's done."

"Even the meridians were strengthened."

"Qingyun, my current cultivation speed should no longer be at the level of 'mediocre talent' as before."

Qingyun covered her mouth, her eyes brimming with surprise and ecstasy!

Golden skin and jade-like meridians, the ultimate realm of bone refining!

A level that countless warriors dream of!

The Third Young Master has been practicing martial arts for less than two months and he has already mastered it!

A sense of pride in sharing both honor and disgrace arises spontaneously!

Lu Changqing picked up his clothes from the ground and put them on.

He felt the power and resilience brought by the golden muscles, and the expansion of his meridians brought by the jade network.

With the Water and Fire Immortal Robe and the Golden Skin Jade Network, the two layers of body refinement were superimposed to the ultimate level, and the overall defense of his physical body had reached a level that he himself could hardly estimate!

Martial Arts Skill: Hundred Birds Stance (Proficient, 1981/2000)

Only one step away from the Blood Transformation Realm!

Strike while the iron is hot!

...

The moon is bright and the stars are few; the sky is as dark as ink.

It was already late at night.

Lu Changqing continued practicing his hammer-and-stance training without stopping.

[My proficiency with the Hundred Birds Stance is maxed out. Shall I attempt to break through?]

breakthrough!

Until one moment, he suddenly felt something inside his body shatter!

Then, the blood and qi in the body, like a river bursting its banks, began to repeatedly rush through the thick meridians!

A powerful force surged through my entire body!
