A Little More Care

Boom! Boom! Boom! The sound of drums echoed in the Quiet Room.

Liang Qu closed his 108,000 pores, forcing the surging medicinal power to wash over his entire body. He had no mind to check how much more Marsh Essence had been added to the Ze Cauldron, and focused all his energy on circulating the "Dragon Subduing Tiger Taming Vajra Sutra".

After being cleansed by the medicinal power, the internal organs become clear and transparent, almost like the innate state.

Its entire body, bones, flesh, blood, meridians, and collaterals trembled incessantly, like a tuning fork being plucked, emitting a deep, beastly roar.

Qilin Roar.

Embrace the tiger and return to the mountain to cultivate inner alchemy; roam the extreme regions and listen to the thunderous sounds.

The Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound is an excellent Dharma Gate for refining the physical body; whether walking, sitting, or lying down, it Flesh Refinement at all times.

The Qilin Roar is similar in effect.

Although the progress made in a short period of time is negligible, it seems as if one is standing still.

However, if you persist for a month, a year, or even ten years, the accumulated progress will be very considerable.

This is why Liang Qu did not choose the Human Origin Great Pill, but instead chose the Qilin Great Pill Elixir.

The Human Origin Great Pill is indeed excellent. Even a low-grade Human Pill can be equivalent to an ordinary person using a mid-level Cultivation Method to absorb and expel Qi and Blood for sixty years, and its power is abundant.

However, Qilin Great Pill gave him was a long-term and useful benefit to his cultivation.

Looking to the future yields even greater benefits.

Liang Qu still carries with him the paper information he received when he obtained the Qilin Great Pill.

The circles and dots drawn with Cinnabar Pen at the bottom are still unforgettable.

Even experts like Huang Jinyuan and Huang Zejun, who were skilled in using Wolf Smoke Expert, needed to consult with Grandmaster to obtain one, which shows how precious the Great Elixir was.

West Wing.

The Old Monk, who had been meditating and practicing stillness, opened his eyes.

At his level, he could replace sleep with meditation, and sleeping two or three times a month was enough.

He knew as soon as Liang Qu stepped across the threshold.

"fortuitous opportunity arises again after being away for half a month... It's truly as natural as eating and drinking."

The Old Monk knew best the difficulty of practicing the Dragon Subduing Tiger Taming Vajra Sutra.

This Cultivation Method has no strict distinction between realms. The longer one practices, the deeper one's skill becomes, and the stronger Golden Body becomes, until a true "Little Self" arises in the Dantian, at which point one achieves great success.

Without external assistance, it would take an unknown amount of time to rely solely on one's own painstaking efforts.

Similar Yet Dissimilar Treasure Plant is so hard to find, so rare.

In less than half a year, Liang Qu actually found and obtained two plants, both of which were extraordinary.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was destined to be...

With undivided attention, Liang Qu devoted himself to refining the Wither-Bloom Twin Lotus Flourishing Decay.

When he first condensed his Golden Body, blood mist rose around him, transforming his Blood Qi into the Dragon Tiger Two Qi.

This time, however, there was none of that terrifying scene. Instead, I felt completely comfortable, with golden light surging and swirling around me like mist.

The withered air flows through, like an old man growing old and developing wrinkles; the flourishing air touches him, like an old tree meeting spring and sprouting new buds.

One positive and one negative, endlessly cycling.

Apart from that, the only visible difference is that the vague dragon and tiger aura around Liang Qu has become clearer and more ethereal.

The outline is no longer blurry and scattered like smoke; it is as if a few special lines have been carefully outlined with Wolf Hair brush, which is extremely charming.

One hour later.

The Great Sun shines brightly in the sky, with Golden Dragon Golden Tiger positioned on either side.

Flowing and intertwining, all reveal the True Intention.

As the last trace of Flourishing Decay force within his body dissipated, Liang Qu opened his eyes and Qi Concealment.

The golden light dissipated, and the strange phenomenon vanished instantly.

Another big step forward.

The effect of the Wither-Bloom Twin Lotus is better than that of the Water-Fire Twin Lives Flower.

If we draw an analogy with "Myriad Victory Embracing Oneness", then this time taking the Wither-Bloom Twin Lotus is like moving from Spirit-Settling to Inner Vision.

The feeling of solidity and unity of the body is even stronger, and one's own "essence" is exceptionally harmonious.

If I had to describe it, it felt like my internal organs, bones, and muscles had been churned up and then twisted together to become a human again—it was truly miraculous.

Communicate with Ze Cauldron.

The azure Marsh Essence washes over the cauldron, creating a series of tidal sounds.

"More than seven thousand four hundred, that's quite a lot more than the Two Lives Flower."

Liang Qu lowered his head and pondered.

I still remember that when he took the Water-Fire Twin Lives Flower, the Marsh Essence he contributed was only a little over 5,300.

The Wither-Bloom Twin Lotus will have 2,100 more points, which is equivalent to one and a half Two Lives Flower on one plant!

Aquatic Treasure Plant have a premium price; placing them in the River Conservancy Office would be worth at least three Great Merit! Even a starved camel shouldn't be underestimated.

Liang Qu's mind began to wander.

"The Ghost Mother Sect has been documented to have a total of eighteen branches, but now only seventeen remain. If all of them are emitting black smoke, wouldn't that mean..."

When wading into a river, one is not afraid of whirlpools; when forging iron, one is not afraid of burning one

Having experienced something different from what Xiang Fangsu and Ke Wenbin had done, Liang Qu had completely opened the door to a new world.

What level is the Huang family's Ghost Mother Sect branch? They're just dukes.

Those princes, dukes, and even members of the royal family would certainly be better.

Seventeen pieces, two at a time, that's thirty-four pieces...

Entering the River Conservancy Office was truly a stroke of luck, allowing him to lean against a large tree and enjoy its shade; otherwise, such good fortune would never have come his way.

It only has a little over 7,000 Marsh Essence, which is far from the 10,000 fusion Spirit Fish.

During his two weeks in Islet Region, Liang Qu went into the water every day and ate Cockscomb Fruit, accumulating 532 essence points, bringing his total to just 8,000, a full 2,000 short of 10,000.

It's not easy to make up for two thousand.

The Treasure Plant that the several Water Beast under their command can find mostly increase the essence by less than one hundred.

Like the Two Lives Flower Twin Lotus, the situation where several thousand more are spent at once can only be considered as one Old Giant Clam and one Mermaid Tear.

The Sturgeon Fish Demon doesn't count; Liang Qu found it himself.

I'll see tomorrow.

Half a month after leaving Yi Xing Town, the Fat Catfish and their companions did not take a break; they continued to search for aquatic Treasure Plant.

I wonder if they can fill the two thousand gaps and allow the River Master Emperor to show more care.

The next morning.

After greeting the Old Monk, Liang Qu went to the courtyard for his morning exercise.

Fan Xinglai woke up to the rooster's crow, tidied himself up, and was about to grab a shovel to shovel horse manure when he heard a noise in the yard. He peeked out.

"Master Liang! When did the master return?"

"It was quite late last night, so I didn't tell you."

Liang Qu was slightly sweating. He put down Fubo and went to the pool next to him to wash his face.

"Then I'll go and call Aunt Zhang to come and make breakfast?"

"Alright." Seeing Fan Xinglai turn to leave, Liang Qu immediately called out to him, "Hey, wait a minute, there's something I need to tell you. Do you know where Yellow Mud Alley is?"

"I know, it's that mud alley to the southeast, next to the Fishmonger Alley. There's an old man there who often carries a load of wontons and sells them. They taste pretty good; I've eaten there twice."

Fan Xinglai very familiar with the place.

Although he grew up in Ping Yang County and hadn't been to Yi Xing Town much, he had lived here for a while and knew the place very well.

"Yes, that's it. In a little while, call Aunt Zhang over and go to Yellow Mud Alley by yourself."

"Go into the alley for about half a mile, there's a house with a thatched shed in the yard. The house is a dark color and newly built. Go and see if they have any problems."

"Troublesome matters?"

"If anyone goes there to cause trouble or try to take advantage of someone's family, just mention my name to scare them. If not, that's fine. Come back and have breakfast."

"Okay."

Fan Xinglai didn't know the cause and effect, but he knew that he just needed to do what was told and that would be the end of it.
