Under Lu Yuan's push, the war against the Xueyuan people quickly began.
But it's just as he said to Cui Changqing before.
This war was only a small-scale war, and the only soldiers and horses used were the local troops stationed in Xichuan County. The number was only 30,000 to 50,000, and including the civilians, it would not exceed 100,000.
This kind of war is nothing to the current Chu State. It can only be regarded as a small local war.
Therefore, after people sent the grain and grass needed for the troops to Xichuan County, Lu Yuan did not go and paid more attention to the matter.
There is Huang Xuan in Xichuan County, a monk who is equivalent to the second level of innateness. There is no need to worry about what kind of trouble those Tibetan people without innateness can cause.
Lu Yuan only received some information from Huang Xuan from time to time, and at the same time paid attention to the battle reports sent by Xichuan, and did some general control.
The remaining specific things and details were all thrown to his subordinates.
He spent more of his energy on his own practice and the education of his two sons.
In terms of cultivation, Lu Yuan didn't have much to do. He communicated with the Tianzhu step by step every day, and then used his luck to induce spiritual energy from the depths of the sky, and then absorbed it and practiced slowly.
In today's world of spiritual cultivation, spiritual energy is withered, and it is extremely difficult for both monks and warriors to take a step forward.
Especially monks.
Although there is a way to cultivate immortality, the spiritual energy is very thin. Every day when breathing in spiritual energy, one has to cherish and calculate it, and it is impossible to absorb the spiritual energy freely.
For Lu Yuan's case, he practiced Taiping Dao Shu and was able to activate the Tianzhu and communicate with the spiritual energy deep in the sky.
Relying on this side method, the spiritual energy he exhales each time is actually far better than those of normal monks who practice in the cave.
But even so, as the spiritual energy gradually decreased, the spiritual energy deep in the sky became more and more dead. Even if Lu Yuan had luck to help him, the spiritual energy he could activate each time was limited.
After cultivating immortals for more than ten years, except for the time when he broke through and condensed his energy, he sacrificed the accumulated luck of more than ten years in one breath and brought a large amount of spiritual energy. At other normal times, he was never able to breathe out spiritual energy freely.
Every time the technique refines spiritual energy, it is difficult to operate it to the limit. The spiritual energy introduced into the body is only less than one-fifth of the efficiency of the technique.
The powerful five-qi chaoyuan-level technique has never been able to exert its due power.
In this situation of insufficient spiritual energy, even if Lu Yuan had the intention to work hard, he was still limited by the environment and could not achieve anything.
The only thing that gave him some comfort was that he felt uncomfortable and others felt even worse.
He is a person who has devoted his life to cultivating immortality. With the help of the magical powers of the three ancient emperors, it is so difficult to cultivate immortality.
Then it will undoubtedly be even more difficult for the remaining monks who do not have golden fingers and can only guard the cave, eagerly waiting for the daily quota, and such a little spiritual energy is still becoming scarce.
I am not the only one who is unlucky, others are even more unlucky than me.
Just thinking about it like this made Lu Yuan feel a lot better.
Moreover, with the Chu State's current prosperity, the aura he can arouse is also increasing day by day.
He doesn't even need to do anything more next. As long as he can develop the four counties of Chu State, as his luck increases, Lu Yuan's current efficiency in inducing spiritual energy can be improved on the existing basis. Two to three percent.
Based on this alone, Krypton Life Dafa will not disappoint.
Lu Yuan believed that in the end of this battle for spiritual energy, he would be the winner.
Therefore, as for cultivation, just go through it step by step.
Lu Yuan only set aside an hour every day to refine the share of spiritual energy driven by the luck of the day, and did not put too much energy into it.
However, he was more concerned about his two sons' studies.
The eldest son, Lu He, is seven years old. His body is beginning to grow, and after enlightenment, he also understands some truths.
Other children this age who want to practice martial arts have already started practicing.
As the eldest son of two innate masters, Lu Yuan and Lan Cai'er, and the heir apparent of the Chu Kingdom, Lu He naturally wanted to practice martial arts.
Therefore, after a certain flirtation, Lu Yuan understood his queen's inadvertent hint in an instant, and the next day, he started to take up Lu He's cultivation.
Lu Yuan had already made plans for his eldest son's cultivation.
Don’t even think about cultivating immortality.
In today's world, the spiritual energy is exhausted, and he, as an old man, feels that the spiritual energy is not enough, and now he is desperately trying to expand his power, trying to compete with other immortal cultivators for a smaller and smaller share of the spiritual energy.
Let Lu He go to cultivate immortality, not to mention that Lu Yuan does not have a cave to breathe out spiritual energy for him.
Even if there was, with the current spiritual energy environment, he doubted whether his son could condense it.
If not, even if he develops magic power, he will only be second to Anqiu at most. Living for a hundred years is the limit, and he is not as long-lived as the Xiantian Grandmaster.
In this case, cultivating immortals is not as good as practicing martial arts, so Lu Yuan will naturally not take it for granted.
So Lu He's path was still the same as he had promised Lan Cai'er, not to cultivate immortality, but only to practice martial arts.
Using the spiritual energy that he had specially saved from the Immortal Yuan Jade Pieces, he could cleanse Lu He's essence and marrow, allowing his soul and body to undergo transformation, and completely lay the foundation stone for the Immortal Path.
In this way, relying on this foundation is enough for Lu He to be free from illness and pain, without any obstacles, and successfully break through the innateness.
This was the original plan.
But at the beginning of the year, Lu Yuan used spiritual energy to refine Sun Siwen's body and soul, helping his friend break through the innate barrier.
During this process, watching Sun Siwen's changes under the spiritual energy made him realize something, and he had more ideas about the use of spiritual energy.
Since half of the spiritual energy can transform a person's body and soul.
So if I still have a complete spiritual energy left in my hand, why can't I transform the souls and bodies of the two people?
You must know that Lu Yuan has two sons.
Although the second son Lu Hao has already arranged a training plan, the accumulated foundation of Chu State is enough for the younger son to successfully break through the innateness.
But it can make it easier for the other party to break through the innateness, so why let the other party choose the difficult path?
Out of the guilt of an old father's mentality, and in order to compensate for the regret that his two children could not become immortals, Lu Yuan wanted to give each other as many benefits as possible.
So after being inspired by Sun Siwen, he started researching on this inspiration.
After several months of thinking, reading many Taoist classics, and carefully studying the Taiping Book and the Five Thunders Book, Lu Yuan finally summed up a more complete method for refining spiritual energy. Come.
Now, he is confident that he can use a piece of spiritual energy in his hand to help his two sons break through the innate barrier and allow their souls and bodies to reach the innate state.
In other words, it cannot be said that it is an innate state, but that the body becomes an innate body and the soul becomes an innate soul. This is called the innate Tao body.
This sounds all lofty and grand, but in reality, it’s not a big deal.
Innate martial arts, no matter how powerful it sounds, in fact, in the beginning, this realm is just equivalent to a monk who has just developed his magic power.
Even a third-level Grandmaster who has cultivated to the strongest level can only condense the Immortal Dao into one.
And condensing Qi is just the beginning of cultivating immortality, the most basic state.
From this we can see that the innateness mentioned in martial arts and the innateness mentioned in cultivation are actually two different things.
Judging from Lu Yuan's personal experience, as well as observing many innate masters and helping Sun Siwen transform, innateness in martial arts refers more to a state reached after one's own will communicates with heaven and earth. .
That is, the true meaning of martial arts.
The outer body of martial arts is just a means of using this true intention.
Analogous to cultivating immortals, the true meaning of martial arts is the earthly energy condensed by Lu Yuan, and the outer body of martial arts is the spells he uses based on this earthly energy through magic power (in martial arts, it is true energy).
It's just that warriors have limitations and cannot use more spells. They can only fix their own spells into one type, which is the outer body of martial arts.
According to this theory, Lu Yuan helped Sun Siwen transform, just to strengthen the other person's body and soul, or to open a key, allowing the other person to open the door of innateness, and he had the qualifications to condense the true meaning of martial arts and build the outer body of martial arts.
Yes, it’s like spiritual practice has spiritual roots.
Warriors also have similar requirements when practicing martial arts.
If you don't have the qualifications, even if I give you innate skills, you won't be able to become innate.
The only difference is that spiritual roots or qualifications can be obtained by oneself through acquired changes.
What Lu Yuan has to do is to use the spiritual energy in his hands to help his two sons open this innate door and condense their innate qualifications.
As long as they have this qualification, then the two of them will be like Sun Siwen. In the future, they only need to improve their internal strength and state of cultivation, and they will naturally be able to break through the innate.
And because of this innate qualification, the two of them can also enjoy the bonus of supreme qualifications like "Innate Tao Body", and their cultivation speed will be countless times faster than ordinary people, or even compared to geniuses. .
Sun Siwen's breakthrough was innate, and Lu Yuan's original plan was ten years. Later, with his help, it was shortened to six years.
Lu Hao and Lu He's accumulation is a bit poor, especially in terms of the state of mind. It is a bit reluctant to be innate in six years.
But Lu Yuan felt that with the words and deeds of himself and Lan Cai'er, as well as the guidance of teacher Sun Siwen, it shouldn't be a big problem to help his two sons break through their innate abilities in ten years.
After all, it is just innate.
It is only equivalent to the level of magical power that has been practiced in the immortal way.
It would be strange for two children with so many resources to be unable to break through their talents in ten years.
In ancient times, when the world of immortality was at its peak, it was easy for people to become congenital in just one day, let alone ten years.
Not worth the fuss.
Therefore, after Lu Yuan told Lan Cai'er about this idea, the latter was immediately overjoyed.
Originally, she gave up all her spiritual energy to Lu He. As a mother, she felt somewhat guilty and felt sorry for her youngest son.
Now that there is a way to have both, I am naturally overjoyed.
The queen agreed and resolved her mother's objections. Lu Yuan naturally began to develop a special training method for his two sons.
This job is not troublesome either.
I just collected the physical data of my two sons, and based on this, studied the transmission of spiritual energy during training, as well as the specific training plan.
Just set aside a few hours every day and spend a few days on it.
Perhaps it was because of her excessive joy that Lan Cai'er was very satisfied with Lu Yuan, a father who was dedicated to his son's future.
During those few nights, Lu Yuan enjoyed himself very much. What does it mean to be obedient and tender as water?
Even several sets of postures that he had never been able to achieve in the past were able to achieve what he wanted, which made him very happy.
Be inspired by this.
His spiritual energy training plan for his two sons also quickly took shape.
In just ten days, a complete plan was ready.
At this point, the "Innate Dao Body" creation plan is mostly completed.
So on a certain auspicious day, when the weather was good, Lu Yuan found his eldest son Lu He, who was still Bifangyuan who helped Sun Siwen refine his body and soul last time, and helped Sun Siwen start to refine his spiritual energy.
With the experience from the last time and the research of the past few months, the "Innate Dao Body" was completed in just five days, basically without much effort.
It even took two days longer than last time. This was because Lu He was just a child and his mind and soul were far less powerful than Sun Siwen's. Lu Yuan had to control him 100%, so he spent more energy.
But no matter what, Lu He's success proves the feasibility of the "Innate Dao Body" plan.
So with the help of this general wind, after two days of rest, he regained his physical strength and spirit, and adjusted his condition to its peak again. Lu Yuan took advantage of the situation and helped his second son, Lu Hao, complete the Taoist training.
In this way, both the older and younger sons have innate qualifications and have obtained the key to the innate door.
When the Taoist body was first formed and the gate of innateness was opened, Lu Yuan began to teach his two sons to practice.
The technique practiced by the two sons is still the Chi Yang Divine Technique.
However, the name of the technique has not changed, but the content of this magical technique, after Lu Yuan's breakthroughs over the years, has been supplemented and modified, and some of the essence of the immortal family from Taiping Dao Book and Wu Lei Book have been incorporated into it, and it has completely become a powerful book. Innate skills with infinite abilities.
Not only starting from the basics, but all the way to the innate.
When he reached the innate realm, the first and second realm techniques were also deduced by Lu Yuan.
This kind of mystical power is considered to be the first-class innate magical power in the world.
Practicing this magical skill is not comparable to those ordinary skills.
Lu He and Lu Hao had just started practicing, but in just three months, they had opened up a meridian.
Compared to the three or four years it takes an ordinary person to master a meridian, it is more than ten times faster.
Even Lu Yuan couldn't help but be surprised when he saw it.
However, after careful study and inspection, he also confirmed that there was nothing wrong with his two sons practicing so quickly.
Ultimately, it was guessed that the reason why the two sons practiced so fast was probably because they had opened up the "innate Taoist body", and the rest was the improved and enhanced Chiyang Divine Art, as well as the innate teachings of himself and Lan Cai'er.
After all, the "Innate Dao Physique" he gave his two sons, among others, is the special qualifications unique to the protagonist, plus magical skills, and the parents of two innate masters...
hiss--
Thinking about it this way, it seems that Lu He and Lu Hao are really treated as protagonists.
Even if he is not the protagonist, he is still the villain genius who opposes the protagonist.
No matter which one it is, it's quite scary.
Therefore, after Lu Yuan figured this out, he didn't have much trouble with the rapid improvement of his two sons.
And compared to the rapid improvement of their cultivation, he was more concerned about the mental state of the two little guys.
Even practicing martial arts has very strict requirements on mental state.
If one's own mental state cultivation cannot control the increasing internal strength, and eventually lead to an unbalanced state of mind and go crazy, it will be fatal.
Fortunately, martial arts only have mental requirements when they reach the second-rate level. According to this state, the two sons will still have some time, so there is no need to worry too much for the time being.
But even so, Lu Yuan has decided to let Lu He and Lu Hao slow down their cultivation speed.
Before confirming that their state of mind was sufficient, he had to keep an eye on them personally and not let their cultivation grow too fast.
Lan Cai'er also agreed with this point, and also made up her mind to watch more.
After all, as the head of a country, Lu Yuan was busy with affairs and often had to go on expeditions, so he could not spend much time with his two sons.
In this way, when the father is unable to bear the responsibility of taking care of the children, it is up to her, the mother, to shoulder the burden.
Fortunately, this had been the case in the past few years. Lan Cai'er had gotten used to it and didn't find it troublesome or tiring.
Compared to this, the smooth transformation of her two sons made her feel even more happy.
Lu Yuan could see how his two sons were treated as "protagonists" and knew the horror of it. As a once-substantial heroine of the world, Lan Cai'er naturally has more experience.
In her two sons, she saw the reflection of herself. No, it should be said that these two sons were much better than she had been.
With this qualification and his background as a prince of the Chu Kingdom, it is certain that he will achieve the innate breakthrough in the future.
Her son has a bright future, and Lan Cai'er's hopes have finally been fulfilled.
After you feel relieved, you will naturally have more energy to focus on yourself.
Then, one time when Wen Cun and Lu Yuan were drawing their eyebrows in front of the mirror together, Lan Cai'er's mood suddenly collapsed when she looked at the faces that appeared together on the mirror.
Because the two people in the mirror are both handsome and beautiful, both male and female.
But the two people who appeared together had obvious differences in age and appearance.
The man is still youthful and energetic, as young as a dragon.
The woman is mature and plump, showing a little age.
To put it simply, one looks sixteen years old and the other looks twenty-six years old.
Although they are both young, the gap between siblings is clear at a glance.
There's nothing we can do about it.
Although the Book of Taiping is a life-burning technique, Lu Yuan has been practicing it for so many years. According to common sense, the lifespan burned away is only two to three hundred years. The lifespan of an innate monk is completely burned out.
But even so, for his nearly unlimited lifespan, it is still a drop in the bucket, or in other words, he cannot feel the passing of his lifespan at all.
The young body that should be sixteen years old is still sixteen years old.
Youth stays forever, immortal blessings last forever, this is what Lu Yuan is talking about.
But he was still young and full of energy. But Lan Cai'er's body inevitably began to age.
Or we can’t say aging, we can only say maturity.
After all, the age of forty years has not yet passed one-third of the way for an innate master whose life span is only one hundred and fifty years.
But even so, looking at her husband, he is still young, and there are no traces of the passage of time on his body. But my body is slowly maturing and will eventually age.
This cruel reality is a big blow to any woman.
"A woman likes her appearance. Your Majesty, by practicing immortal magic, you will always be young. But although I have a small degree of martial arts and can live for one hundred and fifty years, I am not immune to the pain of aging.
Now I am still young and can still retain some appearance.
But after twenty or thirty years, it is difficult to maintain youth.
When the time comes, I will feel ashamed when facing the king's youthful face with my aging face. "
Ever since that day when she had her eyebrows drawn in front of the mirror, and every time she had sex with Lu Yuan, thinking of this, Lan Cai'er felt a little depressed.
Lu Yuan was also helpless about this.
His immortality is limited to himself and cannot be shared with others.
But now that the spiritual energy is exhausted and in the age of the end of the Dharma, it is impossible to rely on cultivating immortals to delay aging and stay youthful forever.
But looking at Lan Cai'er's gloomy mood, Lu Yuan felt a little uncomfortable.
Although the two didn't have much affection at the beginning, after more than ten years as husband and wife, they have been together day and night, and they have already developed a deep friendship.
Although he also knew that with the difference in life span between the two, sooner or later the other would have to be sent away.
But before sending the other party away, if Lan Cai'er's wish can be fulfilled and she leaves with her best appearance, it would be considered as compensation.
Lu Yuan felt that the compensation from his two sons and his wife should not be left behind.
But he didn't have much idea how to maintain his appearance.
In the end, we can only let people search for beauty-preserving techniques in the world, and at the same time, read Taoist books to check the immortal family's beauty-preserving methods, and try to see if they can gain any insights.
In addition, Ziyundao and other immortal gates are also a gate.
He just wanted to go to those immortal sects to find a way to preserve his beauty. There was no time yet, and before he had enough strength, for the sake of his own safety, Lu Yuan did not want to go to other immortal sects.
Fortunately, Lan Cai'er's appearance has begun to mature now, but she doesn't have to worry about aging in thirty or forty years.
It's still long enough to wait slowly.
Therefore, Lu Yuan was not in a hurry about this. He just did some research on his own first to see if he could come up with some solutions.
While he was busy tinkering, the situation outside was changing, and things were also changing.
Unknowingly, two years passed by in a flash.
Time flies to the ninth year of Shenwu.
