A master of supernatural powers who started from low martial arts

Actually.

About a month ago, Lu Yuan had completely entered the realm of refining and perfecting Qi.

The reason why he was delayed for another month was mainly because he wanted to try to see if he could impact the realm of refining qi and becoming a god in one go.

As a result, his cultivation was completely motionless. Even if he used Nine Breath Convince Qi continuously, it would not have much effect. It was as if there was a huge, extremely solid bottleneck in his cultivation.

Lu Yuan realized that this was due to some limitations of the world's environment, but more importantly, it was due to his lack of foundation and accumulation.

Different from martial arts training where you can always achieve something by practicing hard and hard step by step, Daoyin Shu is a method of cultivating immortality in the inner alchemy. Cultivation of immortality and immortality is a journey against the sky. It takes a long time and energy to comprehend the heaven and earth and refine the spirit.

Even if ordinary monks have outstanding talents and sufficient resources, they still need to go through decades of enlightenment, hard work, and accumulation before they can practice to the point where they can refine and refine their Qi. However, Lu Yuan has only been officially cultivating for immortality for three years.

It took such a short time to reach the perfection of refining Qi. Although the foundation is not unstable, it is still a little short of breaking through to the next big realm.

After refining Qi, if you want to break through to the realm of refining Qi and transforming into God, the most important step is to condense the whole body's true energy into a pill fetus. The combination of Qi and Shen will give birth to the soul, just like a foundation-building monk trying to break through. Like golden elixir.

Not only is this step very time-consuming, labor-intensive and difficult, it is also very dangerous. Failure to do so may lead to a decline in cultivation or an obsession.

After just a preliminary try, Lu Yuan realized that he would need a long period of understanding and accumulation of knowledge before he could break through this step.

"Master!?"

At this moment, a figure rushed up from the mountain road. Chen Zhantang came to Lu Yuan and saluted excitedly:
"Disciple respectfully welcomes Master out of seclusion!"

Although he has never officially accepted Chen Zhantang as his disciple until now, the latter has always regarded himself as his disciple. Lu Yuan looked at him and smiled immediately:

"Yunqi Zangshen, have you already cultivated Zhenqi?"

Chen Zhantang was not complacent and said with shame:
"The art of taking food taught by the master is extremely mysterious, but it is a pity that it took a long time for the disciple to be able to learn it because of his stupidity. Thanks to the effect of this art in refining the essence of all things, the disciple finally refined the first ray of true energy a month ago. Qi.”

Lu Yuan nodded in appreciation:

"Yes, you are indeed a seed of cultivation. If you persevere, you can achieve something on the path."

After lighting up Nine Breaths and Convincing Qi half a year ago, he taught Chen Zhantang the method of refining and transforming Qi in Daoyin Technique and the [taking food] in Earth Sha Technique before going into seclusion.

His plan is to plant a seed of immortality in this world and observe how far it can eventually grow.

After all, in the future, he will definitely pursue the traces of the ancient Qi Refiners, and even leave this world. And without the cooperation of the taking technique, no matter how talented Chen Zhantang is in this world, he may only be able to wander around the introductory stage of refining qi and waste his life.

In fact, even with the art of taking food, Chen Zhantang's efficiency in refining the first ray of mana was much slower than what he had originally. After all, he only gave simple instructions on the art of taking food, and Chen Zhantang had to figure it out by himself, which was far incomparable. Direct initiation and transmission of the Heavenly Book.

Lu Yuan's words were regarded as recognition of his practice. After hearing this, Chen Zhantang was very excited and said:
"Master, thank you for your praise. I'm still far behind. I will work harder in the future and live up to your high expectations!"

Lu Yuan nodded slightly:

"Are there any major events in China during this period? What is the situation in the provinces? And is there any result on what I asked my disciples to inquire about?"

Chen Zhantang immediately replied:

"The development of China is now prosperous, and industry and Western science are developing at a rapid pace. Now we can not only independently manufacture ironclad ships and steam locomotives, but also steam airships. We will surely have results soon.

Under the rule of the Yiting, the people in most provinces can be said to have adequate food and clothing. The situation in some remote and backward provinces is worse. In addition, famines occasionally occur due to natural disasters. The Yiting usually invites the disciples of the Tianshi Mansion to go to relief as soon as possible. "

"As for what you asked us to inquire about, over the past six months, the disciples of the Tianshi Mansion have collected more than a hundred ancient books and antiquities about the medieval and ancient times from various places. Now they are all stored in the Archaeological Pavilion waiting for your review.

In addition to these ancient books, they have also discovered several ancient ruins and other places in various places, and are arranging manpower to dig and explore them. I believe they will report back soon. "

Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction:

"Okay, take me to see those ancient relics and books."

Without saying a word, Chen Zhantang led Lu Yuan to the archaeological pavilion specially set up in the Taoist Palace.

Entering the pavilion, you will see rows of wooden shelves inside, with a large number of broken stone slabs, pottery, sculptures, bronzes, etc., which look very old and have gone through many vicissitudes of life.

There were several gray-haired old men busy in the pavilion. When they saw Lu Yuan coming in, they were all startled. They quickly put down what they were doing and stepped forward to greet him. They spoke with great respect and awe:

"We will pay homage to the Holy Master."

These people are among the few civil servant scholars in the New Kingdom who have delved into the history and writing of China in the Middle Ages and beyond. They specialize in studying all the antiquities, ancient books and even writing sent to the Taoist Palace. Lu Yuan looked at it briefly and responded with a smile:
"No need to be polite, I'm here to see if there are any records or artifacts related to ancient times in these things. How is your research going?"

An old man wearing reading glasses said tremblingly:

"As for Kaitianshi, we have carefully verified that more than half of the things sent are actually from the late ancient and medieval times. Some of them are too broken and mutilated to be identified. Only a few of them clearly relate to the ancient times. A few."

Lu Yuan glanced around: "Which ones are they?"

The old man led him to the cabinet, where there were four wooden tables with several broken and primitive things on them:
"Master Tian, ​​please take a look. This incomplete piece of pottery is engraved with oracle bone inscriptions that were only used by the ancestors of the ancient tribe. In addition, the place where it was unearthed belongs to the territory of the Feixiong clan of the ancient tribe. It can be basically concluded that it is an ancient artifact. It’s just that we don’t know how it was fired and it can be preserved to this day. We judge that this was probably a rare treasure ten thousand years ago.”

"This rubbing was collected from the people. The picture on it records the tribal ancestors hunting wild beasts and then offering sacrifices to God. We judge that the rubbing mural should come from the relics of the ancient tribe. Specifically, it comes from Where are you still looking for?”

"This one."

As the old man narrated, Lu Yuan stepped forward to examine each item carefully and found that these items were indeed more or less related to ancient times, but they did not involve what he was looking for.

After the old man finished the introduction, he couldn't help but ask:

"That's all? You have read ancient history, do you know the legends about ancient Qi refiners?" The old man hesitated and said:

"We have heard some things, but they have always been regarded as myths and legends and have never been carefully researched. As far as I know, Jin Ting discovered the ruins of the Yunluo Kingdom in the Zhongyuan Prefecture three hundred years ago.

This country is said to be the first country established by the ancestors of China in the Middle Ages. Among the ruins left behind are several murals recording various strange powers and chaotic gods, which seem to involve ancient Qi refiners. "

"Oh?"

Lu Yuan suddenly became interested:

"Are those murals still there?"

The old man shook his head:

"The Heavenly Master didn't know that the Jin people were not sons of man. After discovering the ruins, they only made rubbings of the murals and then destroyed them, for fear that the Han people would worship them. It is unknown whether those rubbings have survived. Anyway, we have never seen it before, so I don’t know if it is stored in the palace.”

Lu Yuan had never seen the so-called Yunluo Kingdom murals when he was in the Sutra Collection Hall. He frowned slightly and looked at Chen Zhantang, who immediately heard the song and knew its elegant meaning:

"Disciple, let the disciples of Tianshi Mansion search for it."

After that, he left in a hurry.

Lu Yuan continued to listen to the introduction of several archaeologists in the pavilion. One of them was mostly in decay, and the special-shaped bronze furnace also aroused his strong interest.

Because the material of this furnace is quite special, it does not look like an ordinary bronze material. The most important thing is that from its shape, this furnace is obviously a pill furnace!
The alchemy furnace that has gone through thousands of years of vicissitudes, without even thinking about it, is probably used by ancient Qi refiners. Although it has been damaged by the erosion of a long time, Lu Yuan's palm still feels like traveling through time and space when he touches it, recalling the grand occasion at that time. Come.

However, in the entire archaeological pavilion, except for the bronze furnace, there were not many records and objects related to the ancient Qi refiners. He finally walked out in low spirits. After half a day, Chen Zhantang came to report that the treasures had been sealed in the imperial city. No murals related to the Yunluo Kingdom were found in the main hall.

Lu Yuandang decided to go to Zhongyuan Mansion in person to see for himself the so-called ruins of Yunluo Kingdom.

After asking for the direction, he did not take Chen Zhantang with him, but rode the breeze and went straight there alone.

Zhongyuan Mansion was once the ancient capital of several countries with a long history. It is only more than three thousand miles away from Tianjing. With Lu Yuan's current magic power, it can be reached in less than an hour.

but.

When entering the territory of Zhongyuan Prefecture, Lu Yuan looked down from a high altitude and found that in the hot summer, large tracts of farmland outside some counties were deserted and the land was cracked, as if they had suffered a drought.

What's worse is the extreme drought and the locusts. Outside the county where the drought is most severe, he also found a large number of locusts flying in the fields. Wherever they passed, not a blade of grass grew. A large number of farmers, women and even government servants were sweating profusely. to carry out hunting, but in the face of huge numbers of locusts, it is a drop in the bucket.

Under such circumstances, Lu Yuan's figure immediately descended from the sky with Qinghui. The people who were hunting locusts soon discovered him. They froze on the spot first, and then shouted with extreme excitement:

"The Immortal Master is the Holy Immortal Master!"

"The Heavenly Master is here. He heard our prayers and came to save us!"

"The Heavenly Master is so merciful and merciful in helping those in need. The Central Plains Prefecture has been suffering from drought for several months and is plagued by locusts. Please save us!"

Thousands of people in the endless fields knelt down and prayed in front of the roaring tsunami of Luyuan Mountain, as if a drowning man was grasping the last straw.

Lu Yuan didn't say much, but he slowly descended. The millions of flying locusts that covered the sky and the sun all moved out of the way as if they were spirits. He made seals with his hands and muttered something:
"Use your palms at the right time to remove diseases and disasters, go!"

call!
As the trick was completed, he suddenly waved his long sleeves, and immediately saw a huge invisible wave, accompanied by dots of star-like mana and bright light that surged around like a tsunami, covering dozens of miles around him in an instant.

And under this mysterious fluctuation, it was like a deadly plague was spreading rapidly. The hundreds of millions of locusts flying wildly seemed to have suddenly lost their lives, and they fell to the ground in pieces, thousands of them. Thousands of locust corpses rained down!

These effects are naturally the effects of the Earthly Evil Technique [Disaster Relief] that Lu Yuan just lit up.

[Earth Evil - Disaster]: The person who is suffering from evil is the solution. This spell can be used to relieve worldly disasters, including but not limited to driving away locusts, curing diseases, plagues, etc.

Although he had just activated this technique, with Lu Yuan's current cultivation level of refining Qi, it was no problem to deal with the locust plague. Therefore, in just a dozen breaths, nine out of ten locusts were raging in this world. They all fell to the ground, motionless, forming a thick carpet of insect corpses in the field.

"This this"

Thousands of people and officials who had been desperately hunting locusts not long ago were all watching this in stunned silence.

After a long while, almost no living locusts could be seen anymore, and thousands of figures in the field cheered with joy and excitement as if they were awakening from a dream:

"Long live the immortal!"

"It's saved, we're saved!"

"We, ordinary people, would like to thank the Heavenly Master for his great kindness!"

Thousands of reverential shouts surged from the fields and the earth like a tsunami, but Lu Yuan did not stop his spell casting. He saw his hand gestures change and he chanted:

"I summoned the water god, and rain came from the wall. The leopards rose up, and the dragons danced. The five stars rose up in the court, and the holes lived in the ridges. Bo shook the water, and the cow gold and the fragrant girl. The dog water essence, and the ghost sheep made fire. In the Dantian, there is a lot of water. Hai Zhu is in the shape of a drought, and the five thunders are as urgent as the law!"

While the incantation was being recited, an invisible wave enveloped the world again. Soon everyone in the field saw that Lu Yuan's whole body was glowing with magical power, and a dark cloud suddenly formed in the sky above his head, and expanded rapidly. There were only a dozen or so clouds in the sky. In just one breath, it spread for more than ten miles, turning the scorching sun and clear sky into overcast clouds, as if the sky were falling!
Rumble.
Immediately afterwards, muffled thunder rolled, shaking the surrounding areas, and soon a little drizzle fell from the sky in the dark clouds. At first it was as sparse as cow hair, but in just a few breaths it turned into a heavy rain, like a pouring water!
In an instant, heavy rain enveloped the sky and the earth. The parched land was filled with dew after a long drought. It was eager to absorb the rain. Thousands of soaked people and even police officers cheered for joy in the rain, with tears filling their eyes.

no doubt.

This sudden heavy rain came from Lu Yuan's new earth evil technique, Praying for Rain.

[Pray for Rain]: The art of rain, summoning wind and rain from all directions to bring down sweet rain. It can be used to relieve droughts and can also break the magic power of exposure.

The common people and officials in the fields were still cheering and showing gratitude, but Lu Yuan, who used the two techniques in succession, just smiled and harnessed the fairy light and disappeared in an instant. (End of chapter)
