"Forging Dragon Bones …"
Lin Muyu held the remnant scroll and flipped to the first page. The first sentence of the mental cultivation method was engraved on it, "Forging the bones and cleansing the marrow, like a dragon shedding its scales, opening the four gates, reshaping the bloodline."
He was at a loss, "Grandpa Qu Chu, what is this Forging Dragon Bones Remnant Scroll used for?"
Qu Chu twirled his beard and smiled, "Just by looking at the name, you will understand. It is a mental cultivation method for forging the bones and cleansing the marrow. However, this mental cultivation method is similar to that of a dragon, so it is called the Forging Dragon Bones Remnant Scroll."
As he said this, Qu Chu plucked a leaf from the iron tree beside him. With a "xiu" sound, the leaf flew a hundred meters backwards and directly into a green rock. He laughed loudly, "I am teaching this kid a martial art, do you two old fellows still want to eavesdrop? Hurry up and go drink, wait for me! "
Lei Hong laughed heartily, "Deacon Ge Yang, let us go drink first."
Ge Yang was delighted, "Okay!"
…
After the two of them walked far away, Qu Chu continued, "Kid, consider yourself lucky. I found this Forging Dragon Bones Remnant Scroll in an unknown ancient city. It records the important mental cultivation method for forging the bones and cleansing the marrow."
As he said this, he looked at the confused teenager and couldn't help but laugh, "Seems like you still don't understand. How about this, I will simply explain to you why your cultivation has not improved recently and you are still a level 50 Battle-Saint. It is actually very simple, your strength has reached the limit of your current level. In other words, your bloodline is unable to support a stronger cultivation level. Everyone in the empire practices martial arts, but not everyone's cultivation level is equal. This is related to the bloodline. The imperial family of the empire, the Qin family's bloodline is a superior bloodline, the legendary True Dragon's bloodline. That is why the Qin family's cultivation is very easy, but you …"
He said with some regret, "To be honest, you are a good material for practicing martial arts, but you are not a person with a superior bloodline. Your bloodline … is at most average …"
Lin Muyu was a little speechless. She thought to herself, My Lin Family's bloodline is actually so trashy … This is really unexpected!
Qu Chu continued, "The greatest use of this Dragon Forging Bone remnant scroll is to temper your bones … In the world of cultivation, honing your bones is incomparably important. But for most people, honing only strengthens the bones, and does not affect the essence of the marrow. This Dragon Forging Bone remnant scroll is only a legendary martial arts manual. It is said that it can reshape one's bones and blood vessels. When that time comes, perhaps you will have a bloodline as strong as the Dragon Clan, and there will no longer be any cultivation that you cannot endure!"
"Ah? Is that so … "
Lin Muyu was very excited as she listened. She held the Forging Dragon Bone remnant scroll in her hands, but she suddenly looked up at Qu Chu and said, "Grandpa Qu Chu, since this Forging Dragon Bone remnant scroll is so precious, I can't accept it. You should keep it for yourself and cultivate!"
Looking at this rather simple and honest kid, Qu Chu couldn't help but laugh loudly, "Silly kid, do I, Qu Chu, look like that kind of selfless person? If I could really cultivate it, I'm afraid I wouldn't be giving it to you. "
"Why?"
A light flashed in Qu Chu's eyes as he said, "Forging Dragon Bone, as the name implies, is the Dragon Clan's bone forging technique. The pain of forging the bones and cleansing the marrow is not something an ordinary person can endure. Your Grandpa Qu Chu is so old, do you think my body can still endure this kind of pain? I'll tell you the truth, I've tried cultivating this remnant scroll before, but I almost fainted from the pain. That's why I'm giving it to you. Your mind should be able to handle this kind of pain. "
Lin Muyu couldn't help but feel a bit apprehensive when she recalled the pain of refining her skin. But thinking that this Forging Dragon Bone secret technique could bring her even greater strength, and that she really needed strength, she nodded and said, "Thank you Grandpa Qu Chu, I will definitely cultivate diligently and not let you down!"
Qu Chu smiled, "Actually, I didn't put too much hope on you, I just didn't want to see Princess Xi cry for you again. Xiao Xi is a kind girl, don't let her down."
Lin Muyu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "En."
"Then cultivate according to the Forging Dragon Bone remnant scroll. With your comprehension, it shouldn't be difficult."
"Yes!"
Qu Chu leapt out of the garden, most likely to go drink with Lei Hong, Ge Yang and the other old fellows.
… …
Lin Muyu held the Forging Dragon Bone remnant scroll, as if she had obtained a treasure. Her cultivation had already reached the limit, and refining her skin was no longer of any use, so she immediately began to cultivate the Forging Dragon Bone!
The remnant scroll was divided into three parts. The first part was Marrow Cleansing, meaning to thoroughly cleanse the bone marrow. The second part was Assimilation, meaning to find a piece of True Dragon Bone and assimilate it with one's own bone characteristics. The third part was Rebirth, after assimilating the True Dragon Bone, one would begin to reconstruct one's bloodline. The most difficult part was Assimilation, because one had to find a piece of True Dragon Bone, but where would one go to find one?
First cultivate Marrow Cleansing!
The so-called Marrow Cleansing referred to cultivating according to the method recorded in the Heart Sutra, transforming True Qi into True Inner Force. True Inner Force would circulate throughout the entire body's bones once, but Marrow Cleansing required 72 cycles of circulation. The remnant scroll stated that it required 5-7 Marrow Cleansing to complete Marrow Cleansing, changing the entire body's bone marrow once.
This was a long process.
Sitting cross-legged in the grass, he slowly closed his eyes. The first step was to transform his True Qi into True Inner Force. This was also the first chapter of the Forging Dragon Bone Remnant Scroll. It was called "Refining Qi into Primary Essence". The True Inner Force had a stronger penetrating power, and its purity was also far superior to True Qi! Just this step alone almost took Lin Muyu's life. He cultivated from night till dawn, and finally, the True Qi in his body began to change subtly, becoming hot and cold. He gently opened his palm, and a fiery red True Qi rose up. True Inner Force had been refined!
Continuing, he began to use True Inner Force to circulate throughout the entire body's bones. He could only circulate it once every 20 minutes, and what followed was a tearing pain, as if every inch of his bones was being roasted by fire. In the blink of an eye, his entire body was covered in sweat. No wonder Qu Chu couldn't withstand this kind of pain! But Lin Muyu still bitterly endured, and forcefully completed the first cycle.
In the morning, a servant brought breakfast and placed it beside him. The servant respectfully said, "Sir Lin Zhi, Deacon Ge Yang has ordered me to bring you breakfast. Please enjoy. He also said that you don't have to go to the training hall for the next few days, and just focus on your cultivation!"
Lin Muyu couldn't help but feel grateful. This was definitely something Qu Chu had done for him. Otherwise, with the style of the Temple, how could they let a Gold Star Sparring Master like him be idle?
… …
In the blink of an eye, a day had passed, and he had also completed one cycle of the 72 cycles. As his cultivation progressed, the process became faster and faster. Luckily, there was someone to deliver his three meals, so he was completely immersed in his cultivation. Even the pain from the Marrow Cleansing seemed to have disappeared.
On the third day, he had completed a total of six cycles of the 72 cycles of cultivation, and all the bones in his body seemed to have been reborn.
He slowly opened his eyes, and drops of dew dripped down from the treetops onto his shoulders. Lin Muyu couldn't help but smile. Even the clarity of his vision seemed to have improved a lot, and his ears and eyes became sharper. Even the footsteps of the servants in the distance couldn't escape his ears. This Bone Forging and Marrow Cleansing was indeed wonderful.
He stood up. It only took him three days to complete the first scroll of the Dragon Forging Remnant Scroll. Next was the second stage — Assimilation!
However, the Bone of a True Dragon was harder to find.
In the morning, he found out in the Temple that Qu Chu had left Lanyan City to travel again. Lei Hong, Ge Yang, and the others all expressed that they didn't know where to find the Bone of a True Dragon. Bones of a Pseudo Dragon could be found, and the Umbrella Dragon's bones could be found in the pharmacy. However, it was obvious that he couldn't use the Pseudo Dragon's bones to assimilate. Otherwise, the quality of his cultivation would be completely different.
In the afternoon, a servant walked over and said, "Sir Lin Zhi, there's someone outside asking to see you. It's Princess Xi from the Duke of Seven Seas' Residence."
"Oh, I'll be right there!"
He hurriedly put on his boots and hurried out. Outside the Temple, Tang Xiaoxi stood alone under the bright sunlight. Her hair flowed behind her, and she wore a fiery red dress. She looked at him with a smile and said, "Mu, long time no see!"
"Why are you free today, Xiao Xi?" he asked with a smile.
"I'm free every day. I'm going to Ze Tian Hall today, so I came to see you on the way!" She smiled sweetly.
Lin Muyu muttered, "Ze Tian Hall … It seems that there's no need to pass through the Temple from the Duke's Residence to Ze Tian Hall …"
He regretted it as soon as he said it. He wanted to slap his thigh and scold himself. You finally understand why you're single?!
Tang Xiaoxi blushed at his words. She glared at him and said, "Anyway, I'm going there on the way. You don't have to care about me! Let's go to Tingyu Restaurant for lunch. I've made a reservation. "
"Okay, but it's so expensive there. One meal costs 70 Jinyin coins."
"Don't worry, I'll pay." Tang Xiaoxi patted her plump chest and didn't reply.
"Okay, but before I go there, I want to go to the biggest medicine shop in the imperial city."
"Okay!"
…
The two of them arrived at the medicine shop. Many people in the medicine shop recognized Tang Xiaoxi. They all respectfully greeted her, "Princess Xi is well."
After asking a few rooms, Lin Muyu couldn't find what she was looking for. Lin Muyu looked unhappy.
"Silly Mu, what kind of medicinal herb are you looking for?" Tang Xiaoxi was a little surprised.
"A kind of bone," Lin Muyu said.
"Oh, what kind of bone?"
"It's …" Lin Muyu was a little embarrassed and said, "Xiao Xi, how long has it been since a true dragon appeared on this continent?"
"A true dragon …" Tang Xiaoxi blinked and said with a smile, "About two to three thousand years ago. The legend of a true dragon has been around for a long time. It seems like no one has seen a true dragon in the past few thousand years."
"If that's the case, then it's even harder …" He was full of disappointment.
"What are you looking for?"
"A piece of the bone of a true dragon."
"Ah?" Tang Xiaoxi's beautiful eyes widened, but she suddenly seemed to think of something. She stuck out her tongue and said with a smile, "Okay, this kind of thing is really hard to find. How about this, I'll help you think of a way. Don't be anxious."
"Okay."
Tang Xiaoxi knew that Lin Muyu was a genius in the field of medicine refinement. She was probably looking for the bone of a true dragon to refine medicine, so she didn't ask much. She didn't know that Lin Muyu wanted the bone of a true dragon to cultivate the Dragon Bone Forging Technique.
