"Red Bird Crosses the Sea!" Lu Sheng spun the millstone in his hand and slammed it forward like a giant sword.
Boom!
The millstone flew more than ten meters away and smashed into the muddy ground of the drill ground. Mud splashed everywhere, and the nearby soldiers were even splashed in the face.
"See that?" Lu Sheng retracted his arm and scanned the soldiers with his bell-like eyes.
"Strength is determined by muscle, and muscle is determined by weight! The heavier the weight, the stronger the muscle! The stronger the blood energy! The stronger the blood energy, the better the energy! Everything else will go in the right direction! What you need to do now is to increase the weight and the amount of training. Don't worry about your food, I will take care of it! "
The family guards were silent for a while, and finally responded intermittently.
"Are you f * cking awake?! Ah!!? "Lu Sheng roared, causing everyone's eardrums to ring.
"Yes … yes!!" The soldiers quickly responded.
Only then did Lu Sheng give a few instructions to his family guards in satisfaction. Then, he walked straight towards his younger siblings.
"How come you have the time to watch me train the soldiers? Where's Dad? "
"Dad told us to call you, Big Brother," Lu Quan said softly.
"Oh? A new ceremony is starting? "Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow.
"Yes … there was another leak earlier, and the previous ceremony's capacity was used up." Lu Quan nodded. Ever since he started the ceremony and received the acknowledgment of a Protector, he had become more mature.
He was a completely different person from the innocent and immature boy from before.
Lu Zhenling stood at the side, looking the same.
"Who's hosting the ceremony this time?" Lu Sheng asked.
"It's the Second Elder … but Dad wants you to watch," Lu Quan explained.
"Never mind, I'm not free right now." Hearing that Lu Dangfeng wasn't hosting, Lu Sheng didn't care about the Second Elder or the Third Elder.
He only wanted to fulfill Lu Chong's wish and protect Lu Dangfeng, his siblings, and the villa from being destroyed. That was all.
The rest had nothing to do with him.
"Alright …" Lu Quan knew that Lu Sheng had changed a lot in the past year. This gentle and amiable big brother had become more and more decisive and serious. His every word and action had an indescribable sense of power.
Once he decided on something, he wouldn't change his mind.
"I will relay your words to Father."
"Mm, go ahead."
Lu Sheng watched the two of them leave. In his mind, he roughly judged the layout and plans of the villa. The training of the family soldiers was just his insurance.
The one who truly played the leading role was himself.
His current physical body's vitality was incomparably strong, almost exceeding the limits of an ordinary human. All of this was caused by the transformation of the Holy Lord's Divine Soul. In the past year, he hadn't just foolishly trained his body. He had also been exploring and researching Extraordinary Energy.
Because all kinds of energies transformed by Yang Essence could not adapt to the rules of this world, he simply tried dozens of different ways to accumulate Essence Qi and Internal Qi according to the physical body of this world.
Sure enough, there was an effect.
Among the Essence Qi and Internal Qi, the Essence Qi was initiated. This also activated the Deep Blue Modifier that came with him.
'Looks like I have to start preparing again … The annual active period of the seal is about to begin again. If I run into trouble, I might have to perform the ritual continuously …' Lu Sheng's heart skipped a beat. He immediately shifted his gaze to what was before him.
"Deep Blue."
He called out in his mind.
A light blue frame appeared before his eyes.
On the frame, there was only a clear Infinity Method frame for Lu Sheng's abilities. Other than that, there was Lu Chong's martial arts frame.
Lu Chong had two frames: the Upper Forest Sword Technique and the Nameless Essence Qi Technique.
The Upper Forest Sword Technique was an exquisite sword technique that had been passed down in the Lu Family's Purple Smoke Villa since ancient times. Of course, it was exquisite in the eyes of the people of this world. To Lu Sheng, it was just an ordinary sword technique from the mortal world.
And the Nameless Essence Qi Technique was Lu Sheng's biggest gain in the past year.
After more than half a year of continuous exploration, he finally figured out a basic method of absorbing and accumulating Spiritual Essence.
With this method, he began to cultivate diligently.
However, he did not use the Mental Energy that he had accumulated for a long time. Even though he still had more than 10,000 units of Mental Energy left. This was the portion that he did not have time to throw into the bottomless pit of Death Flame after consuming the Divine Weapon.
Relying solely on his own cultivation, he managed to cultivate this Nameless Essence Qi Technique to a powerful stage where Essence Qi filled his entire body. His heart even condensed a sliver of silver Essence Qi.
This was Essence Qi that was formed after extremely concentrated Essence Qi was compressed.
After condensing this sliver of Essence Qi, Lu Sheng realized that the rules of this world did not allow the existence of any other pure energy other than Essence Qi. Even the appearance of Essence Qi was extremely difficult. If he was not careful, his body might explode.
To be more specific, it was extremely difficult for pure energy and matter to coexist in this world. They were either pure matter or pure energy. He could only choose one of the two.
It was already extremely rare for him to be able to produce Essence Qi.
'Is this the limit of what I can do on my own? Without the Modifier, this is all I can do … If I want to resolve this karma, this alone won't do … As expected, I'm still far from being able to completely break away from relying on Deep Blue … 'Lu Sheng sighed in his heart, but his expression did not change at all.
After sending off his younger siblings, he returned to the edge of the drill ground and found a seat to sit down. On the surface, he was supervising the training of the family soldiers, but in reality, he was studying Deep Blue.
'Looks like the only way to quickly become stronger is to improve the Nameless Essence Qi Technique. The Upper Forest Sword Technique is a pure offensive sword technique that doesn't involve inner force. Even if I reach the peak, it's just that. It's limited by the intent of the technique itself. At most, it can be derived into a pure ultimate technique like the Nine Strategies Beyond the Swords. It's not very useful. What really touches on the essence is still Essence Qi … '
Lu Sheng's gaze slowly shifted to the Nameless Essence Qi Technique.
To prevent the intent from being limited, he only provided this Essence Qi Technique with the ability to refine and store Essence Qi.
Hence, the possibility of future development was extremely high.
'Let's begin … Let's see if I can completely deal with this so-called sealed evil being and Guardian Spirit in one go …'
He lightly simulated a finger with his consciousness, and pressed the modify button below the Modifier. The entire frame of Deep Blue blurred for a moment, then became clear again.
Lu Sheng's gaze fell directly on the Nameless Essence Qi Technique's frame, and lightly pressed the derive button behind the frame.
"Pchht!"
Almost instantly, the frame blurred and became clear again. It originally showed 'Nameless Essence Qi Technique: Full-mastery'.
However, after the modification, his Mental Energy was instantly reduced by one unit. The Essence Qi Technique also changed abruptly. The Essence Qi that had originally spread throughout his body became thicker and denser under the synchronization of his Mental Energy. The pressure on his body also increased.
After about a dozen breaths, Lu Sheng let out a long breath. All the Essence Qi in his body had completely turned into light silver Essence Qi!
He looked at Deep Blue's frame again.
'Unknown Essence Qi Technique: Maximum Mastery.'
'From Full-mastery to Maximum Mastery … This only cost me one unit of Mental Energy … Again!' Lu Sheng wanted to continue extrapolating with more Mental Energy, but as soon as he thought about it, he felt a swelling pain in his body. He couldn't take it anymore … He needed some time to get used to it.
'This world's suppression of supernatural powers is too great …' He sighed inwardly.
'I have to do it step by step … I'll just walk the path of pure external and hard body skills!' He raised his arm, and glanced at the lines of his muscles that had expanded rapidly over the past year.
Since pure energy was suppressed, then he might as well walk the path of pure physical strength.
After carefully recalling the other external martial arts that trained the body, Lu Sheng quickly locked onto some of the techniques of the Ultimate Eight-Headed Devil Way. Without using Devil Aura or Devil Aura, he could use Essence Qi to help repair his body, and a Divine Lord's spirit to precisely train and refine the effects. He believed that it would definitely reach a very impressive level.
After a short rest, Lu Sheng waited for his body to adapt to the explosive increase in Essence Qi. While supervising the family soldiers' training, he grabbed a steel knife and tested the changes that occurred after he conserved his Essence Qi.
Soon, he understood the effects of the silver Essence Qi.
Rapid recovery of the body, unparalleled endurance and energy, and shocking immunity. In short, it meant that his cells became extremely active.
Apart from that, the silver Essence Qi couldn't be released in battle, and could only be used to supplement the body. It seemed that this was the main theme of the rules of this world.
After understanding the effects of the Essence Qi, the family soldiers' training was more or less over. Lu Sheng stood up and gave them a few words of reprimand, then sent them back to rest.
He himself went to Liancao Hall to check on the progress of the ceremony.
Before he was halfway out of the drill ground, Lu Sheng heard a loud boom from the direction of Liancao Hall, as if something had exploded. There were faint screams and angry roars mixed in there.
His expression darkened, and he quickened his pace, rushing in that direction.
Sprinting along the corridor, he met some servants and maids who were running around in panic. Soon, he arrived at the entrance of Liancao Hall, and saw an extremely disgusting scene.
The second elder of the manor was stumbling out of the inner room of Liancao Hall. His stomach was like that of a pregnant woman, swollen like a rubber ball. Stinky, sticky black and yellow liquid kept gushing out of his mouth. His entire body was scurrying around while letting out painful howls.
The ground and decorations for the ceremony had been blasted into a mess by the explosion. The sticky liquid was also scattered everywhere.
Lu Dangfeng was trying his best to make hand gestures with a few family elders, muttering something under his breath.
Soon, the second elder rushed forward a few more steps, then fell to the ground. His entire body dissolved into a puddle of black-yellow liquid, slowly merging into the ground and disappearing.
"Immediately calm down all the servants. Yun Cheng! Seal the front and back doors of Liancao Hall, and don't let anyone in or out. Yun Biao! Do as we said, notify the entire villa, and kill anyone who dares to spread rumors! "Lu Dangfeng ordered.
After dealing with the second elder, no one was in the mood to continue with the ceremony. They quickly wrapped things up and left to rest.
Lu Sheng arrived a bit late, and saw that the ceremony was already nearing its end. He didn't disturb the extremely tired Lu Dangfeng, and instead found Lu Zhenling to ask about the situation.
From his younger sister, Lu Zhenling, he learned that the second elder encountered an evil spirit that leaked out during the ceremony. The guardian spirit he chose wasn't enough to completely defeat the evil spirit, so he took on the rest of the evil spirit and died on the spot.
