Chapter Twenty-Three: The Seven Wounds
Lu Yu found that his speed couldn't get rid of the gray-shirted old man at all, and he had to change his clothes and change his appearance, provided that he needed to avoid the old man's sight, but fortunately, the distance between them was not shortened much.
Running all the way forward, Lu Yu found that it was not far from the center of Lujia Town, and he was secretly happy in his heart, because he had already seen Lu Yu's courtyard wall, and then turned over and jumped into the Lu family compound, and at the same time, his appearance had returned to Lu Yu's original face.
"Murder, come on!" Lu Yu shouted as soon as he entered the compound, like thunder on a sunny day.
When the people of the Lu family heard the shouting, they immediately rushed to the compound, and at this time, the gray-shirted old man also turned over and jumped in.
"Who dare to come to Lu's house to spread wilderness?" shouted a middle-aged man with a majestic face, the man was wearing a white robe, medium stature, and slightly green skin, it was Lu Yu's second uncle, Lu Jiang.
"I'm Shangguan Tianhong, and I'm tracking a young thief this time, so I'm here to look at Brother Lu Haihan. Shangguan Tianhong clenched his fists and said hurriedly.
"It turned out to be Brother Shangguan, Lu was clumsy, and he couldn't recognize it just now, so please forgive Brother Shangguan. Lu Jiang also returned the salute, but there was a trace of displeasure in his heart, your Shangguan family had been against our Lu family before, and today you directly broke into our Lu family's compound, what do you think of our Lu family.
"There was a thief who stole a jewel from our Shangguan family, and I have been tracking it down, just now I saw that thief entering the side courtyard in a panic, and asked Brother Lu to help catch the thief, our Shangguan family will be grateful. Shangguan Tianhong looked anxious and said lightly.
"Brother Shangguan, do you suspect that our Lu family stole it?" Lu Jiang's face was slightly gloomy and he said lightly.
"Brother Lu, I didn't mean that, but this thief was chased by me, so he inadvertently escaped into the side courtyard, and asked Brother Shangguan to help, let's go check it out together. Shangguan Tianhong frowned slightly and said hurriedly.
"Oh, we can't be sure if there are thieves in that side courtyard, maybe it's gone now, I'll send someone to take a look, you, go see if there are thieves in the courtyard." Lu Jiang said slowly, and then ordered a subordinate to go and check.
"Brother Lu, that thief is insidious and cunning, and Brother Wei has also suffered losses in front of him, should we go and check it out in person. Shangguan Tianhong was secretly anxious, he knew that kid's cunning, and only sent a small subordinate to check, he was really not at ease.
"Brother Shangguan, don't you believe in our Lu family, are you still afraid that we will do something?" Lu Jiang asked rhetorically, with a slight coldness in his tone.
After half a ring, the servant came back and said, "My lord, there are no thieves or anyone in it, but a big hole has been dug in the back wall." ”
"Are there really thieves? Take me to see who dares to come to the Lu family to spread wilderness. Lu Jiang said angrily, and then everyone came to the side courtyard, and sure enough, they found that a big hole had been dug out of the wall.
"Since the thieves have fled, then I won't bother Brother Lu anymore and take my leave. Shangguan Tianhong clenched his fists, said hurriedly, and then flashed out of the Lu family's compound, at this time he was anxious, now that he had lost the trace of that kid, it would be difficult to catch him again.
Shangguan Tianhong hurriedly chased out, only to see people coming and going on the streets of Fang City, where was there still a trace of the gray-clothed young man, he suddenly stomped his feet in anger, shook his head helplessly, and immediately ran away angrily into the distance.
Not long after Shangguan Tianhong left, a young man in white flashed out, looking at Shangguan Tianhong's distant back, a thick killing intent suddenly appeared on his delicate face, and he muttered: "Shangguan Tianhong, I will kill you!" The young man was none other than Lu Yu, who had restored his original face.
"It's still too weak, it's being chased all over the ground!" Lu Yu sighed, and immediately ran towards Jade Dragon Mountain, what he was most concerned about now was the improvement of his strength, and everything else was floating clouds.
"Boy, don't be discouraged, you have done a good job, after completing the gathering of the Wood Spirit Bead, although he may not be able to beat Shangguan Tianhong, he will definitely not be able to help you. Haotian encouraged.
"Really?" Lu Yu said in surprise.
"Do I need to lie to you? Don't say anything else, you still have a Chong Spirit Pill, you can first impact the second layer of Qi Gathering, and then complete the Spirit Gathering at the end. Haotian reminded.
Rushing to the Jade Dragon Mountain, Lu Yu entered the original cave again, sat cross-legged and began to absorb the vitality of heaven and earth, only to see the surrounding vitality slowly converge towards Lu Yu's body, after about two quarters of an hour, Lu Yu felt that the whole body was full of Yuan Force, and then took the Chong Ling Pill, as soon as the Chong Ling Pill was entered, Lu Yu felt that the Yuan Force in his body suddenly boiled, and hurriedly ran the Gathering Spirit Secret Book Mental Method, so that the whole body Yuan Force was compressed towards the dantian position.
This time, the compression of the Yuan Force is much the same as the first time, but this time it is much simpler, because there is already a spirit point in the body, and the fluctuation of the Yuan Force during compression is more than five times that of the first time, and the larger the float, the easier it is to produce the Spirit Point, and Lu Yu does not have to worry about the depletion of the Yuan Force.
Although it was just a simple compression, the spirit bead was not idle, and at the same time frantically absorbed the heaven and earth vitality, as if feeling the spirituality of the wood spirit bead, the speed of the spirit bead absorption was more than twice as fast as before, another lightning and thunder in the sky, another storm and rain, even Lu Yu didn't understand why the spirit bead caused such a strong vision of heaven and earth.
When compressed to more than thirty times, a small spirit point was finally formed in the dantian, Lu Yu frowned slightly, he was very dissatisfied with this spirit point, compared with the first spirit point, this spirit point was too small, even if such a small spirit point was promoted to the second layer of Qi Gathering, it was not much different from ordinary martial artists.
When Lu Yu was thinking about whether to scrap it and recompress it, this spirit point suddenly frantically absorbed the yuan power in the body, fortunately, there was a gathering spirit bead to provide the yuan power, otherwise Lu Yu was afraid that the yuan power would be exhausted again, with the absorption of the yuan force, this spirit point was gradually getting bigger, and finally it became the same size as the first one, Lu Yu was suddenly pleasantly surprised, and understood that he had been successfully promoted to the second layer of Qi gathering.
"Hurry up and use the mental method to complete the gathering of the wood spirit beads, now is the best time to gather the spirits. Haotian hurriedly reminded.
Lu Yu also ran the cheats mind method again, it can be said that he is familiar with the road, because the energy of the spirit bead is far greater than that of the wood spirit bead, the stronger the energy, the easier the spirit gathering becomes, this time the wood spirit bead only resisted for two quarters of an hour before it was completely devoured, and there was no strong pain feeling for the first time when gathering the spirit, which was completely within the range that Lu Yu could generally bear.
The Gathering Spirit Bead fused with the Wood Spirit Bead has completely turned pure green, and the Gathering Spirit Bead at this time is still frantically absorbing the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, Lu Yu suddenly felt that the Yuan Force released by the Spirit Gathering Bead contained a large amount of vitality, and these vitality spread to the various meridian cells, the meridian cells were more active than before, and the meridians that were previously injured by compressing the spirit points were also quickly repaired by this vitality.
"It's good to be angry, don't be afraid of damage to the meridians, then I'll compress it again. Lu Yu muttered to himself, and then compressed the Yuan Force in his body again, but this time the meridians of the whole body were damaged from time to time during compression, but they quickly recovered, and then they were damaged again, and recovered again.
At this time, Lu Yu's condition was not much better, the qi and blood in his body were rolling and tumbling like a tide, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and the severe pain caused by the damage of the meridians directly caused Lu Yu's body to continue to twitch indirectly, and the muscles all over his body were tightly constricted like steel, and the green tendons were constantly squirming, and his face was as white as paper, without the slightest blood.
Haotian stood quietly on the side, and did not prevent Lu Yu from compressing the spirit acupoint for the second time, because he knew that with a large amount of vitality from the wood spirit bead, Lu Yu would not have any danger to his life, even so, on his illusory face, there was also a hint of worry on his face, and at the same time, he was also amazed by Lu Yu's strong perseverance in his heart.
Lu Yu didn't care about the severe pain caused by the damage of the meridians, anyway, there was no danger to his life, so he had no worries, so he compressed out a spirit acupoint, this time after more than a hundred failures, he finally compressed a small spirit acupoint, and the spirit acupoint slowly became larger, and when it became the same size as the previous spirit acupoint, Lu Yu understood that he had been promoted to another layer, and now he had reached the third layer of Qi Gathering.
"Boy, it can't be compressed anymore, it's reached the tipping point of recovery after breakage, everything is in moderation. Haotian reminded.
Lu Yu also understood this truth, and then stopped, and when the whole body was full of Yuan Force, the sky returned to tranquility again, Lu Yu observed that the Gathering Spirit Bead had turned pure green, and the energy fluctuation was more than twice as strong as before, Lu Yu condensed the Gathering Spirit Sword again, and found that the Gathering Spirit Sword was already more than a foot long, and immediately tested the control range, and the flying sword flew to a distance of seventy zhang and stopped, which increased by ten zhang compared to before, which made Lu Yu suddenly surprised.
"Teacher, can't the Wood Spirit Bead increase my attack?" Lu Yu wondered, it took so many twists and turns to get the Wood Spirit Bead, isn't there any way to attack against the sky?
"The function of the Wood Spirit Bead is mainly to provide vitality, and it cannot be used as a means of attack. Haotian explained.
"Hey, it's a shame that such an anti-heaven orb doesn't increase its attack power. Lu Yu sighed and said.
"That's because you don't understand the true function of the Wood Spirit Bead, and you see the rattan of the mountain where the Wood Spirit Bead is located? That is caused by the release of vitality by the Wood Spirit Bead, and your body also has a strong vitality, as long as your head is not cut off, your heart is not dug up and other fatal injuries, others will not be able to kill you. Haotian said with a solemn expression.
"Although the Wood Spirit Bead is good, it still can't attack. Lu Yu said in frustration.
"Stinky boy, you're not satisfied with such a good thing, so what do you look at?" Haotian immediately pulled out a book from the Gathering Spirit Secret Book.
"Hide the Seven Wounds Fist!" Lu Yu said in surprise.
"Yes, after cultivating, the strength is seven times that of an ordinary punch. Haotian said indifferently.
"Seven times!" Lu Yu was taken aback, his eyes flashed, he quickly read the cheats and began to cultivate.
"Teacher, why didn't you teach me first?" Lu Yu asked as he practiced.
"The Seven Injuries Fist hurts others first and hurts oneself first, it can only send out a punch at the cost of extracting the essence blood of the seven meridians, and without the large amount of vitality of the Wood Spirit Bead as a body protector, you can't cultivate it at all. Haotian said with a solemn face.
After a few days, Lu Yu's Seven Injuries Fist is a little beginner, and he can already draw out five menstrual blood to send out a punch, I believe that as long as he practices for a few more days, he should be able to reach the point of Xiaocheng.
In the past few days, Lu Yu has been practicing the Seven Injuries Fist in the small courtyard, after these few days of practice, the Seven Injuries Fist finally became a little smaller, Lu Yu swung out a punch, and its power was more than five times stronger than the Earth Evil Fist, this is still the case that he did not use all his strength, if he swung it with all his strength, it can indeed achieve a sevenfold effect.
Lu Yu was meditating and practicing the mind method this day, and suddenly heard footsteps in the courtyard, and when he looked back, it was Lu Lingling, and now Lu Lingling is more watery, with a pair of smart eyes and big eyes and that pretty and lovely cheeks, she is completely a little beauty at the level of disaster.
"Third brother, I haven't seen you for a while, where have you gone? I've come to look for you several times, but I haven't seen you at home. Lu Lingling pursed her lips and seemed to complain.
"Oh, I've been busy cultivating these days, and I've all gone to Fengling Mountain, the little girl has made rapid progress, opened up a hundred meridians, right?" Lu Yu smiled.
"I've opened up one hundred and four meridians, but it's still far from you compared to the third brother, third brother, have you cultivated to the qi gathering layer?" Lu Lingling's eyes flashed, and she smiled coquettishly.
"Well, as long as you work hard, I haven't opened up the meridians at this time for you, cultivate well, and I will soon catch up with the third brother." Lu Yu gently rubbed Lu Lingling's head and smiled.
"Third brother, do you know? The clan competition between the five major families is about to start in three days, whoever wins the championship this time can take over the management rights of Jinyuanfang City for three years, and can also get a spirit cave nine spirit pill, this pill can allow the martial artist who opens up the meridians of the whole body to form a spirit point and advance to the qi gathering layer, last time the Lei family won the championship, this time I don't know which one. Lu Lingling's pupils condensed slightly, and she was colored.
