Lu Kun saw Qin Yushu leaving the refining loft and re-closing the restraint. He scanned the storage bag with his spiritual consciousness and found that in addition to a large amount of black fine iron, there were some brass-colored ores and finally a few bottles. Pill.
"Uncle Nie turns out to be so stingy. This yellow ore should be copper concentrate, and the one he gave me is still unrefined. That's all, he just lent it to me."
When Lu Kun saw the materials in the storage bag, his forehead turned black and he muttered speechlessly.
When Lu Kun said this, Nie Wufeng in the cave next door was looking at a bronze mirror. The scene in the bronze mirror showed Lu Kun in the Refining Pavilion. When Nie Wufeng heard this, he raised his white eyebrows. He raised his eyebrows and looked a little ugly.
At the same time, Qin Yushu walked in from outside the cave.
"Yushu, your last words when you left Lu Kun, did your teacher say that to you?"
Qin Yushu looked confused and said innocently: "Master, I don't remember what you said at the end. Hey, Master, you were actually spying on Junior Brother Lu."
After saying that, this seemingly gentle and handsome man came forward and became very wretched. He put his face close and looked at the bronze mirror.
Nie Wufeng was not surprised when he saw the change in his apprentice's face. As an apprentice, he was extremely talented, but he was too naughty and liked to pretend to be a polite scholar.
Lu Kun in the bronze mirror didn't know that he was already under surveillance and began to look around. Because he had just seen the basics of weapon refining, he could barely recognize some of the materials placed in the corner.
He muttered again: "Snow jade, century-old iron wood, earth flint stone, fine iron wood... they are all top-notch materials. Since Uncle Nie said to borrow them, I will borrow them too. If I refine them, A high-grade magic weapon should be able to offset it."
Suddenly, Lu Kun felt the movement of the spirit beast bag around his waist and shouted, "Xiao Jin, stop making trouble, why don't you let me let you out!"
After speaking, he patted the spirit beast bag on his waist and released Xiao Jin.
As soon as this little gray monkey came out, it screamed excitedly and kept running around in the weapon refining pavilion. It turned out that when Lu Kun took it into the Yueyang Sect, Xiao Jin felt this rich spiritual energy. .
Moreover, this room was filled with the power of earth fire, which made Xiao Jin feel comfortable throughout his body as he just started to practice the Yuan Fire Body Refining Art.
Xiao Jin felt it for a while and couldn't wait to practice next to the furnace. Lu Kun looked at the restrictions around the weapon refining pavilion and carefully explored it. He found that it had the effect of isolating spiritual consciousness. He felt relieved and sat down cross-legged to start practicing.
The muscles on the surface of his body began to turn red, and many muscles twitched slightly. In some places, it was as if there was an earthworm moving under the skin.
As the practice progressed, Lu Kun sweated a lot outside his body, but the strange sight of the muscles on his body did not diminish at all. Instead, it became more and more intense. However, his expression was very indifferent, as if these did not bring him anything. Painful.
What is different from before is that this time Lu Kun cultivated on the day of spiritual root, and there was no trace of mana fluctuations emanating from his body. Even if there were foundation-building immortal cultivators here, he could still only see his cultivation at the fourth level of Qi refining. .
In the Yuanhuo Body Refining Technique, when the spiritual roots are not there, one can use the spiritual energy to temper the body. The sight of the spiritual energy converging is obvious. When the spiritual roots are there, the mana in the body can be used to temper the body.
In the past, when Lu Kun used mana to temper his body, he would still experience mana fluctuations. However, after Lu Kun practiced the Yuanmu Body Refining Art, in addition to greatly increasing his muscle recovery ability, he also experienced certain changes.
One of them is to allow the magic power to penetrate deep into the muscle fibers and circulate repeatedly. In this way, the magic power will not leave the muscles at all, so it will not be discovered by others. This kind of body tempering effect is also greatly increased.
Lu Kun came to the Yueyang Sect to find a way to break through the body refining technique, but before coming, he thought about it again and again and decided that he should hide the body refining technique for fear that high-level immortal cultivators in the Yueyang Sect would be interested in his body.
In the past, the old ghost Murong wanted to extract powerful blood essence from his body. Ling Yuetian, the founder of Diamond Jue, was also killed because of his powerful body. The immortal cultivator wanted to use his body as a material for refining corpses.
Lu Kun's current physical strength can be said to be the strongest since the creation of Diamond Art. There are so many secret arts and techniques in the world of immortality, and it is possible that a powerful monk will need a body like his.
After entering the Yueyang Sect, Nie Wufeng seemed to be an immortal and did not force him to do things, but Lu Kun would not believe that this extremely powerful Foundation Establishment Stage monk would not harm him just because of this.
While Lu Kun was practicing, in the cave next door, the white-haired Nie Wufeng watched him practice.
Qin Yushu didn't look at Lu Kun, but looked at Xiao Jin who was practicing, and said with envy: "I didn't expect that Junior Brother Lu also has a first-level upper-level spiritual beast. It seems to be a fire-attribute monster. It knows how to survive in the earth and fire." Li Bian is practicing, I really don’t know how my junior brother was able to subdue him, I have to ask him carefully next time.”
"But Master, from what I see, Junior Brother Lu's face does not look like a cultivator with evil intentions. Why does Master want to monitor him?"
Nie Wufeng took a closer look at Lu Kun in the bronze mirror, and then injected a burst of spiritual power into the bronze mirror, and the scene in the bronze mirror disappeared.
He said angrily: "Do you seem to be a well-mannered and good young man? The little girls at Yuyang Peak are worried about you, but Junior Sister Du still sees your true nature and won't let you get close to Yuyang Peak."
Seeing Qin Yushu's expression of embarrassment, Nie Wufeng shook his head and continued: "With my spiritual cultivation, if I face an immortal cultivator in the Qi refining stage, if he has any disrespectful thoughts, I will have already felt it. What I am confused about is Senior Nephew Lu’s cultivation, I have a vague feeling that his strength is definitely beyond the fourth level of Qi Refining.”
Qin Yushu said in surprise: "Master, your spiritual consciousness is probably almost the same as that of an immortal cultivator in the alchemy stage. It is impossible that you cannot detect Junior Brother Lu's cultivation."
Nie Wufeng frowned and said: "You also know that my master has cultivated the secret technique of physical induction to the peak. This is a purely physical nerve induction. It is different from the power of spiritual consciousness. My spiritual consciousness did not find anything, but the nerves I feel that this Lu Kun’s strength is no less than yours.”
After Qin Yushu heard this, he was a little shocked and said: "Master, Junior Brother Lu is really so powerful!"
"When I saw him practicing, he was indeed only at the fourth level of Qi Refining, but you and I could see the abnormalities in his body."
"This is definitely not caused by basic skills. It should be caused by some kind of secret technique."
After Qin Yushu heard this, he also remembered the strange scene of Lu Kun's muscles and body surface in the bronze mirror. He closed the feather fan in his hand and said, "That means that Junior Brother Lu's secret technique is equivalent to refining when it breaks out." The full attack power of Qi."
Nie Wufeng nodded and said: "This is the only way it makes sense. Otherwise, with his cultivation at the fourth level of Qi refining, how could he possibly subdue the first-level upper-level monsters."
Qin Yushu also thought this was the case, but the more he thought about it, the more surprised he became, and said: "When Junior Brother Lu improves his cultivation, won't his explosion be comparable to foundation building?"
Nie Wufeng shook his head and said: "How can it be so easy to improve the cultivation level of the Hidden Spirit Root? Your master relied on his special magical power to madly sweep away the sect's tasks and obtained a large amount of resources before he could barely succeed in building the foundation. Lu Kun's growth was at least It’s five times more difficult than me!”
"Although our Yueyang Sect has never inquired about the secret arts of our disciples, we are most afraid of spies from other sects. Just in case, Yushu, please go to Huayuan City to investigate Lu Kun's affairs."
"Yes, Master!"
…
While Lu Kun was practicing, he was still immersed in thinking about the body refining technique. He had no idea that his body refining technique had been recognized by Nie Wufeng and the others as a weird secret technique.
The mysterious magical weapon that Nie Wufeng mentioned before, as well as his insights from practicing the Yuanmu Body Refining Technique over the past year, gave Lu Kun a new understanding of his own path to breakthrough.
The essence of the Body Refining Art is to refine the body. Only the stronger the physical body can hold more mana. At the current stage, Lu Kun is only tempering muscles, and there is still a long way to go before tempering the entire physical body.
However, he vaguely felt that as long as he reached the foundation building stage, he could temper his bones.
From there, it may be the same as the Vajra Art, then to the bone marrow (blood refining), and finally to the internal organs.
Now he has concluded that there are three major problems in practicing the body refining technique he created.
The first problem is how to greatly increase the strength of the physical body. He has experienced the tenth level of Qi refining to the current twelfth level, and clearly understands how much improvement in muscle strength is accompanied by the breakthrough of each level of mana.
It is deduced that in order for him to reach the thirteenth level of body training, he needs to increase his muscle strength by more than two levels.
As for the mana gap between the thirteenth level of Qi refining and the foundation building stage, he had no idea. He vaguely felt that the gap was very big. In this way, if the muscles wanted to carry the mana of the foundation building stage, the improvement required would be huge. This is not It can be achieved through step-by-step practice.
To solve the first problem, we must first understand the difference in mana between the foundation building stage and Qi Refining Dzogchen, so as to estimate the difference in muscle strength. Then we need to come up with a way to make the muscles achieve a certain qualitative change, just like the foundation building pill for the foundation. The function of the exercises is average.
The second problem is to convert gaseous mana into liquid. Only in this way can he enter the foundation building stage, double his lifespan, and become a true immortal cultivator.
To solve this problem, Lu Kun not only needs to understand the characteristics of liquid mana from some foundation-building techniques, but also needs to know the experience of most Qi-refining stage immortal cultivators in converting gaseous mana.
So he came up with a way to convert his muscle mana into a liquid state.
As for the last problem, it is the defect of the hidden spiritual root. Even if Lu Kun solves the first two problems, without the spiritual root, the transformation of liquid mana will definitely not be completed.
Fortunately, as soon as he entered the Yueyang Sect, there was hope for the third problem, which was the mysterious magical weapon refined by Nie Wufeng.
"To solve the problem step by step, first help Nie Wufeng make the magic weapon."
Lu Kun thought clearly about these huge mountain-like problems, showed a determined expression, and took out the top-grade weapon-refining hammer, and then there was a continuous sound of hammering in the weapon-refining pavilion.
