Chapter 246: Chapter 181: Refining the Sword Embryo, A Peculiar Misunderstanding_2
“Disciple is also puzzled, maybe because it has been a long time since fishing, all the Strange Fish in the river have gathered,” said Lu Qing.
Lu Qing actually had a guess, but before confirming it, he did not want to jump to conclusions.
Hearing that they could eat Red Moon Carp, the elder doctor also felt some anticipation.
By dinner time when Lu Qing was cooking, the elder doctor didn’t even look at his medical books, leaving his study early.
Lu Qing prepared two Red Moon Carps, one steamed and one boiled into soup.
During dinner, all of them tried a bite and indeed found the fish tender, delicate, and extremely flavorful, with the soup refreshing their hearts and spleens, truly living up to its reputation as one of the top ten delicacies.
That dinner, everyone ate heartily with great enjoyment.
That night, after Little Yan and Little Li had gone to sleep, Lu Qing sat on his bed and quietly thought things through.
During the day, he had obtained substantial information about Seven Killings Tower from “Shadow.”
This included some key locations of the strongholds.
However, he hadn’t thought about taking action against Seven Killings Tower anytime soon.
Lu Qing was well aware of his own limitations; with his current strength, trying to shake a huge entity like Seven Killings Tower was just a fool’s dream.
Even if he could destroy one or two of their bases unexpectedly, it would essentially be a trivial matter for a behemoth like Seven Killings Tower, serving no purpose but to warn them and cause unnecessary alertness.
When striking a snake, one must aim for its vital part; either don’t strike at all, or if you do, you must severely cripple or kill them!
Therefore, Lu Qing wasn’t in a rush.
For now, his top priority should be to focus on accruing strength, and to use his time to significantly enhance his capabilities.
Only when his power was formidable would he be worthy of facing a mighty force like Seven Killings Tower.
Additionally, he had a premonition, from the Cloth-clothed Youth’s words, that the once-in-a-millennium change was nearing.
Perhaps it wouldn’t be many years before the world itself would transform.
After forming a trace of Divine Soul Rune Framework, Lu Qing trusted his own intuition.
To stand a chance in the anticipated upheaval, strength was indispensable.
Temporary gains and conflicts of pride were trivial; enhancing his own strength was the most crucial task.
With that thought, Lu Qing felt a slight stir in his spirit, and a sword appeared in his hand—the very same Divine Weapon Blade Embryo forged from Outer Heaven Fallen Iron.
Placing the Sword Embryo across his knees, Lu Qing concentrated his spirit, and a trace of Divine Soul Power emerged from the acupuncture point between his eyebrows, entering the embryo and beginning the refining process.
Lu Qing employed a Secret Technique inherited from Li Huo Sect.
Using mind and spirit to refine the Sword Embryo, he engraved secret runes within it, leaving his own spiritual imprint.
Once the rune engraving was complete and the refinement reached perfection, the Sword Embryo would transform into a Sword Dao Magical Artifact, an existence even superior to that of a Divine Weapon.
However, due to the weak nature of his Divine Soul Power, Lu Qing could not refine for long each day.
Thus, successfully refining the embryo into a Magical Artifact was bound to be a long process that required plenty of time.
After refining for a quarter of an hour, Lu Qing started to feel mental fatigue. Knowing he was reaching his limit, he ceased the refinement and stored the Sword Embryo back in the Qiankun Qi Bag.
He then took the opportunity to practice the Furnace Visualization Method, pushing his spirit to its utmost limit before falling into a deep sleep according to a special breathing technique.@@novelbin@@
The next morning, waking up refreshed, Lu Qing found the Divine Soul Power in the acupuncture point between his eyebrows had significantly increased.
This was a Cultivation Method he had devised over the last few days, pieced together from the multitude of inheritances in his mind.
Each night, he would first employ Divine Soul Power to refine the Outer Heaven Fallen Iron Sword Embryo, then practice the Furnace Visualization Method, pushing his mind to a certain limit before regulating his breath according to the Turtle Breathing Technique and recuperating his Divine Soul Power in his sleep.
Such cultivation made him feel rejuvenated upon waking the next day, fully restoring and even enhancing his Divine Soul Power substantially.
Truly achieving progress in both artifact refining and cultivation.
Feeling his enhanced Divine Soul Power, Lu Qing was very satisfied.
At this rate, solidifying a complete Divine Soul Talisman before advancing to the Innate Realm wasn’t just wishful thinking anymore.
Glancing outside, as the morning sun was already rising, Lu Qing, as usual, practiced some Nourishing Body Boxing in the courtyard before heading off to prepare breakfast.
Just as he’d finished making breakfast and was about to call Little Yan and Little Li,
suddenly, he heard some noise outside, followed by a hearty voice.
“Brother Lu Qing, I’m here to freeload a meal!”
“Elder Ma, are you done with your clan’s matters?”
Lu Qing stepped outside, somewhat surprised.
Indeed, it was Ma Gu. Dressed in a blue robe with a long sword hanging from his waist, he had reverted to his previous attire.
“It’s done. Thanks to Zi’an, in fact, there’s not much left for me to do in the clan anymore. The clan leader and the elders keep talking about it—they nearly directly told me that as long as I maintain a good relationship with Zi’an and you guys, I don’t need to worry about anything else.
Tired of hearing that, I found an excuse to return to the Great Gathering.”
Ma Gu appeared somewhat depressed and also a bit embarrassed.
It seemed he felt that the clan was being too calculated about his and Lu Qing’s relationship.
Lu Qing, however, didn’t really mind these things.
Instead, he asked, “You returned to the Great Gathering, so what about Zi’an, don’t you need to supervise his cultivation anymore?”
Lu Qing was aware of the true reason Wei Zian had become Ma Gu’s disciple.
“Well, I’ll keep you guessing for now. You’ll know in a couple of days.”
What do you think?
