As the three entered the house, Lu Li explained that the leader of the Jiu Shan Sect had likely encountered a problem while practicing demonic arts.
Wan Qing said in surprise:
"The Prion Virus that you speak of, sir, cause illness in people during years of famine. When the disease strikes, the person becomes delirious and insane, and there is no cure! Our ancestors concluded that it was caused by human flesh. Now that Fan Chengxun has contracted it, it's truly reaping what he sowed!"
"That devil deserved it!"
Xiao Cha had a blood feud with the Jiu Shan Sect for killing her father, so hearing this news naturally brought her great satisfaction. At the same time, her eyes lit up as she said:
"If the sect leader were insane, wouldn't it be much easier for you to destroy the Jiu Shan Sect?"
"Not necessarily. A madman might be harder to deal with than a normal person."
Lu Li picked up the Spiritual Jade Pot and said, "So we still need to improve our own strength."
Having said that, he focused his attention on the pot and began to work on it.
The "Spiritual Jade Pot" is made of a special material that can absorb water like a sponge, storing one's mind and true energy.
When you need to use it, you need to focus your mind and "squeeze" it out.
At this moment, Lu Li only needed to use a little of his mental energy to sense the massive amount of Innate True Qi stored in the pot.
Since it was the first time, Lu Li only lightly hooked the bait and took a small amount.
The air around the spout immediately became blurry, and a faint blue light dripped out.
This was a drop of true energy. Lu Li reached out and caught it, letting it drip into the Shangyang acupoint on his index finger.
In that instant, Lu Li felt his arm... as if it had been frozen numb in the dead of winter, and then he stretched it into a warm blanket, feeling incredibly cozy and warm!
His eyes narrowed, and he activated his Heavenly Eye to "Internal Vision," clearly seeing that the drop of true energy was immediately scrambled for by the cells as soon as it entered his body.
Less than 10 centimeters along the "Hand Yangming Large Intestine Meridian" was the entire area that had been snatched up.
"Nice one!"
The body doesn't lie; the benefits of true qi are self-evident.
Lu Li picked up the Spiritual Jade Pot and said to the two girls, "You two go first, don't be shy."
He first aimed the spout at the Xiao Cha...
Xiao Cha hesitated for a moment, but then she remembered that Sister Xia had predicted that she would not live past 60 because of her Heart Blood.
If this Innate True Qi can replenish the damage from overwork, it would be good to spend a few more years with that big pig's trotter.
So the girl stopped being polite and generously reached out to accept it.
Lu Li wasn't stingy; he immediately used the amount from a Great Heavenly Cycle.
Xiao Cha quickly focused her attention on absorbing the information.
Lu Li then aimed the spout at Wan Qing.
"My lord, I have only just Bone Forging; it would be a waste to squander such a precious resource..."
Wan Qing's words made sense, but Lu Li said directly:
"Don't you want to see what we look like sooner?"
One sentence was enough to make the girl stop being modest and obediently accept the full amount of the Great Heavenly Cycle.
Both women began to concentrate on absorbing true energy, and Lu Li, not in a hurry, watched over them first.
The process wasn't long, after all, every cell in the body was desperately competing for it.
Fifteen minutes later, Xiao Cha was the first to open her eyes, her expression a mixture of joy and worry.
As expected of a treasure two major realms higher, its true energy is indeed extraordinary; one round of tempering is equivalent to a year of my own arduous cultivation.
But even the best things are still foreign imports and cannot make up for the lack of a solid foundation.
The problem of Heart Blood strain has not been resolved.
Lu Li noticed that Xiao Cha's expression was off and was about to ask her something...
Suddenly, Wan Qing opened her eyes, took a deep breath, and let out a long howl!
The sound waves shook the roof tiles, causing dust to fall in a flurry; it was clear a breakthrough had been achieved, but it wasn't over yet!
A rumbling sound, like the roar of a race car engine, surged from Wan Qing's chest, the sound of the five internal organs working at their limit!
"It made my internal Five Organs Resonating!"
Lu Li and Xiao Cha exchanged a glance, their faces filled with joy!
With the help of Innate True Qi, Wan Qing not only broke through her current level but also advanced to a higher realm.
Her pretty face flushed with excitement, and she gave Lu Li a Wanfu Ceremony, saying:
"The true energy is of great benefit; thank you for bestowing it upon me, sir."
"No need for formalities, we're family."
Lu Li smiled and said, "From now on, you just need to focus on breaking through to the Spirit Refinement Realm."
"Wan Qing is Four Spirits; reaching the Fetal Breathing Realm will be a piece of cake for her, and she'll regain her sight then~"
Xiao Cha was all smiles, as if her earlier worry was just an illusion.
Wan Qing felt incredibly fortunate to have met these two people by her side!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Next, not wanting to disturb Lu Li any longer, the two girls each took a sip of perfume and went back to their rooms.
Sufficient rest allows cells that have absorbed vital energy to grow and strengthen better.
Lu Li began his cultivation.
As a master of Spirit Refinement, there are naturally significant differences.
He directly extracted and absorbed two Great Heavenly Cycle of true energy from the "Spiritual Jade Pot"!
The reason for doing this is because of [Internal Vision], which allows one to clearly see the condition inside the body.
Lu Li could move his "true energy" to the most suitable place according to his own wishes.
With proper regulation, the effectiveness far exceeds the body's instinctive absorption.
Lu Li manipulated his true energy to circulate throughout his meridians, starting by refining his muscles and bones.
His rapid promotions, largely due to external factors, inevitably led to some instability, and this opportunity provided a chance to rectify that.
"True Qi" is the essence of life two major realms higher, and the body will instinctively crave it.
The body's cells frantically absorbed the nutrients, visibly dividing and multiplying, rapidly growing stronger!
After the muscles and bones, came the internal organs. Lu Li manipulated his true energy to solidify the foundation as much as possible before penetrating the bones and refining the marrow.
The bone marrow cells, impatient and eager, absorbed the true energy like sponges soaking up water.
Lu Li calmly and steadily channeled his true energy into the bone marrow cells, slowly refining and forging them until they were fully saturated. Then, he replenished the bone marrow cells with his true energy.
After four hours of this repeated refinement, the bone marrow in all parts of the body except the spine had become as clear and translucent as frost and snow, which was exactly the "refinement of marrow like frost"!
Lu Li was very satisfied; this Innate True Qi saved him a lot of time!
At this moment, there is still enough for 6 Great Heavenly Cycle in the pot.
Lu Li wanted to try what Xia Weijun had said—to infuse true qi into weapons and transform Mundane Iron into Divine Weapon!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lu Li raised his hand and summoned the "Mountain Breaker Sword," transferring a drop of true energy to it.
Flying swords can also absorb Internal Breath, but their masters don't even have enough for themselves, so they rarely get any.
This drop of true energy is an immense benefit; the blade of the "Mountain Breaker Sword" visibly gleams!
Unexpectedly, such a good thing happened, and it excitedly ran around the room.
Lu Li pulled out an M1911 pistol, then summoned the flying sword back into his hand and slashed at the pistol.
He moved very gently, but in one swift motion he sliced off a section of the gun barrel!
The gun barrel was made of high-quality steel, but at this moment it was as brittle as an apple!
Lu Li's hands moved without stopping, effortlessly slicing the entire pistol into pieces, and the true energy on the flying sword was also exhausted.
"What a sword that Cut Iron Like Mud! My true energy can enhance my flying sword!"
Lu Li was greatly encouraged!
The true energy purchased this time not only helped the whole family cultivate, but also genuinely improved their combat power.
"Golden Flower is worth it!"
Lu Li touched the Spiritual Jade Pot, and in a good mood, he pondered:
"The next step is to refine the spine, advance the blood exchange, and achieve the prerequisite for [Out-of-Body]."
"Blood transfusion is a qualitative change in Martial Arts; it allows one to withstand rifle bullets and greatly increases safety."
"Then, with combined heavy firepower, we'll wipe out the Jiu Shan Sect!"
