Chapter 14: The Second Level of Qi Refining!

Chapter 14 – The Second Level of Qi Refining!

Six months later.

“The second level of Qi Refining!”

Inside the practice room, Lu Changsheng’s robes were windless as he woke up from his meditative state and exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, a joyful look on his face.

After a year and a half of hard cultivation, he finally broke through from the first level of Qi Refining to the second level of Qi Refining.

Taking so long was being delayed quite a bit by waif-making and talisman-making.

Otherwise, with his current resource condition of five Spirit Stones per month, occasionally buying some Spirit Tea and Spirit Pills to replenish his cultivation would be helpful.

But this bit of time delayed was all worth it in Lu Changsheng’s opinion.

During these six months, Lu Changsheng had taken his seventh concubine and the two Lu family women sent to him after Uncle Fu, and they were both successfully conceived.

And Lu Lanshu, Lu Zi’er, and Lu Qing’er are all pregnant with their second child.

In half a year’s time, Lu Changsheng had six more children who were about to be born.

This caused Uncle Fu, who had been keeping an eye on Lu Changsheng’s situation, to come and advise Lu Changsheng to be more restrained when it came to female sex, and that there was no need to be in such a hurry to have a baby.

As for talisman making, he had drawn more than two hundred talismans in these six months.

Fifty of them were drawn into basic talismans and taken to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion to be recycled to subsidize the household.

And he indicated to Uncle Fu that he was already fifty to sixty percent sure that he had made a peace talisman.

It was estimated that in a few months, it would be possible to attempt a first-order talisman.

As long as one was able to successfully draw a first-order lower-grade talisman, one would be considered an entry-grade talisman master.

“At the second level of Qi Refining, the spiritual energy is almost twice as thick as the first level of Qi Refining.”

“Now drawing a first-order mid-grade talisman is no longer difficult for me, unlike before, when I drew a mid-grade talisman, my entire body nearly deflated, and the talismans that were too difficult even failed outright.”

“If I have the materials, I can even try and draw some first-order upper-grade talismans for defense.”

Lu Changsheng stood up and experienced the spiritual energy in his Dantian Qi Sea.

What trapped him from drawing talismans was not skill, but his own cultivation.

As long as his cultivation reached the threshold of talisman making, he would be able to successfully draw talismans.

However, with his current tools and materials, he could only draw first-order medium-grade talismans at the highest, and could not attempt to draw first-order upper-grade talismans yet.

Even if he had second-order full-grade talisman-making skills, without materials, it was still a tricky situation.

If he went to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion to purchase high-level talisman-making materials, he didn’t know how to explain that he didn’t have the free money.

“I can try practicing spells now too.”

“Otherwise, there are no means other than talismans.”

Lu Changsheng said to himself.

He hadn’t practiced any arts yet.

Aside from the use of talismans, there was basically no battle power.

And on the path of cultivation, conflict, fighting is inevitable.

Even if Lu Changsheng doesn’t want to fight, doesn’t want to fight, and just wants to peacefully marry and have babies, trouble will still find his way to the door.

Trying to rely on Gou and settle down all the way is impossible and undoubtedly self-defeating.

“But there’s no need to rush, as long as I don’t leave the Lu family, there won’t be any danger for a while.”

Lu Changsheng shook his head and walked out of the practice room to play and relax with his children.

Having just picked up a child and came to the courtyard, Lu Changsheng saw Li Feiyu coming.

He teased his eldest son in his arms, “Come, call Uncle Knight.”

But the kid’s just over a year old, and he only knows vague superlatives.

“Changsheng, congratulations on your breakthrough to the second level of Qi Refining.”

Li Feiyu congratulated towards Lu Changsheng.

He lives next door to Lu Changsheng.

He was just practicing martial arts in the courtyard and sensed the fluctuation of aura over here, so he knew that Lu Changsheng had broken through to the second level of Qi Refining.

“Hehe, it’s time for a breakthrough after so long.”

Lu Changsheng said smilingly.

Li Feiyu’s seventh grade spirit root, dedicated to cultivation, did not waste time on female sex, and broke through the second layer of Qi refining half a year ago.

“Nagisa, why do I feel so much whiter than you used to be, the whole person looks better, what’s this doing?”

At this time, Li Fei Yu looked at Lu Changsheng who was holding the child and suddenly tsked.

The two live next door to each other, but they only get together almost once every month or two.

“Oh, have you?”

Hearing Li Fei Yu’s words, Lu Changsheng gave a slight start.

It immediately occurred to him that it should be the effect of his cultivation of the Immortal Stance Technique.

This gong method, although he didn’t pay much attention to it, he would still cultivate it when he thought of it.

Cultivate the immortal refining gas although has the effect of washing the marrow and hair, but the early stage for looks, appearance, skin whitening aspects of the enhancement of the change is not very big.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng said carelessly, “Maybe I used to have to do farm work, but now that I’ve been pampered, and I’m at an age where I’m growing my body, it’s natural that I’ve nourished myself a bit better.”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, originally the two of us together were like red flowers with green leaves, if you go on like this, won’t there be no way to set me off.”

Li Fei Yu flirted.

“Roll! When I raise you for a few more years, you boys will be the green leaves that set me off.”

Lu Changsheng laughed and cursed.

The next day, Lu Changsheng went to the Lu Clan’s bookstore, spent a spirit stone, rented a copy of the Elementary Spells Primer, and started practicing spells.

“Zip, zip, zip!”

Inside the practicing room, Lu Changsheng stretched out a finger on his right hand, and sparks and sparks constantly surfaced from the half-inch high tip of his finger.

But this spark goes out as soon as it forms a fireball.

What Lu Changsheng was practicing was precisely one of the elementary spells, the Fire Bomb Technique.

A small fireball can be released and catapulted out.

But the spell wasn’t easy to practice.

Not only do you need spiritual energy to work with it, but you also need to recite incantations.

The spell wasn’t shouting a firebomb spell or anything, it was an ancient, raw syllabary.

It was very awkward to mobilize spiritual energy together, so Lu Changsheng had practiced for so long, but he had yet to get the hang of it.

After practicing for an hour, the spiritual energy in Lu Changsheng’s body was almost depleted and he began to meditate and rest.

Just like this, Lu Changsheng added one more thing to his daily life, practicing spells.

One month later.

“Bzzz!”

On Lu Changsheng’s fingertips, a thumb-sized red fireball emerged.

The fireball was not big, but it emitted a scorching heat, causing the temperature of the practice room to rise.

Looking at the small fireball on his fingertips, Lu Changsheng continued to continue pouring his spiritual energy into the small fireball, causing its flames to begin to grow larger.

Right after the small fireball reached the size of an egg, Lu Changsheng’s fingertips that were holding the fireball slightly trembled.

He snapped his fingertips and unleashed the firebomb at the target in front of him.

“Boo!”

The firebomb landed on the target, and in an instant it melted the target, which was cast in fine iron, into iron.

“Whew!”

“No wonder Fei Yu said that Martial Dao innate strength is only comparable to the third level of Qi Refining.”

“In front of such a firebomb, no matter how high the martial arts skill is, as long as one is struck, one will surely die.”

Lu Changsheng felt some emotion after seeing the power of the Fire Bomb Technique.

He thought of the fight between the Lu Family and the Chen Family on the way to the Green Bamboo Mountain before.

The speed of the spells released on both sides could be much faster than they were.

And it can release multiple fire bombs, water arrows, and wind blades at once, which is simply overwhelming.

“But this spell is also too difficult, this month, I’ve only practiced one fire bomb technique.”

“There’s also the Wind Control Technique, Object Control Technique, Spiritual Eye Technique, Voice Transmission Technique, Qi Convergence Technique, and a whole bunch of other basic spells, how long does this have to be practiced.”

Lu Changsheng took a deep breath and shook his head in exclamation.

A small introductory spell took so much time, what if this was a more advanced spell?

Cultivating immortality is just too time and energy consuming.

It made him think of the talisman-making skills he had acquired.

Some understand why this skill is so valuable and sought after.

It’s not simply that it’s hard.

Immortal cultivation is inherently very time-consuming and money-consuming.

For every other part-time study, it takes more time and effort and money.

Most Immortal Cultivators simply don’t have the time and energy and money to cultivate other things on the side.

You can only focus on cultivating one.
