inside the room.

Lu Yuan leaned back leisurely in his recliner, holding two yellowed manuals in his hands, carefully browsing their contents.

As the magistrate of Qingyun County, Wu Yong has access to more resources and martial arts techniques.

These two martial arts manuals were unexpectedly discovered by Lu Yuan in his treasure vault.

However, judging from the yellowed and moldy pages, Wu Yong had neglected martial arts for a long time and probably hadn't practiced much at all.

Lu Yuan immediately used his talent to upgrade the grade of these two martial arts techniques.

There was a flash of white light.

The two manuals in his hands immediately contained much more content.

[Introduction: Yi Jin Duan Gu Gong is a superior body-strengthening method of Dafosi Temple. It utilizes true qi and precious medicines to cleanse the meridians and temper the bones.]

Upon reaching the minor completion stage, one becomes invulnerable to blades and spears. If one cultivates to the perfect stage, one possesses a body of steel and boundless strength, capable of tearing demons apart with bare hands using only physical power!

[Hint: Spending 10,000 Heaven-Mending Points will upgrade this technique to the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill!]

"Tearing demons apart with bare hands?"

Lu Yuan's eyes brightened slightly.

Demons are thick-skinned and strong, and their strength lies in their physical bodies.

However, the Yi Jin Duan Gu Gong (Muscle/Tendon Changing and Bone Strengthening Technique) can actually give martial artists a physical body comparable to that of demons, which shows just how powerful this body-refining martial art is!
Lu Yuan looked up at another martial arts manual.

[Introduction: Dragon Subduing Tiger Fist, one of the advanced martial arts techniques of Dafosi Temple. Clouds follow the dragon, tigers follow the wind; this fist technique combines both hardness and softness. When practiced to its highest level, it can manifest illusory images of dragons and tigers, increasing the power of the fist technique several times over!]

[Hint: Spend 10,000 Heaven-Mending Points to upgrade this technique to the Arhat Subduing Demon Fist!]

During the height of the Great Ling Dynasty, it collected martial arts techniques from all over the world, attempting to spread martial arts throughout the land.

The martial arts of Dafosi Temple are extremely powerful and yang, and have a remarkable restraining effect on demons and monsters, so they are widely spread throughout the Daling region.

In addition, Lu Yuan also obtained a lot of rare medicinal herbs and pills from Wu Yong's treasure vault.

Disaster is imminent.

Lu Yuan didn't care about spending his Heaven-Mending Points; he went all in and used them all to improve the quality of medicinal herbs and pills.

Then he sent some healing pills to the old man, and as for the remaining elixirs and herbs, he swallowed them all like snacks.

The pill had just entered his stomach.

It immediately transformed into a powerful medicinal force, spreading throughout his limbs and bones.

Lu Yuan's aura rose steadily, and his strength increased by several points with almost every breath!

Fourth level of Qi Condensation!

Fifth level of Qi Condensation!

Sixth level of Qi Condensation!

……

With the dual blessing of the [Yin Sha Spirit Body] and [Severing Emotions to Prove the Dao], Lu Yuan did not face any bottlenecks at all.

Given enough cultivation resources, he can break through at an astounding pace.

Driven by the powerful medicinal effects, Lu Yuan's internal energy surged several times over.

In just half a day, he successfully stepped into the ninth level of the Qi Condensation Realm!

Originally, the true energy in his meridians was only as thick as an adult's thumb.

But now it is like a mighty river, incredibly powerful and profound!

Previously, when facing the pig demon, he exhausted all his true energy after just one use of the Wind and Thunder Blade Technique: Exorcising Evil. But now, even if he uses the Wind and Thunder Blade Technique: Exorcising Evil ten times in a row, he doesn't have to worry about running out of true energy!

And this is not the end of it.

As his true energy surged, Lu Yuan gradually felt a throbbing pain in his meridians.

This means that the true energy in his body has reached the limit that his physical body can contain. If it continues to increase, Lu Yuan will be bursting apart!
But Lu Yuan did not panic. Instead, he tried his best to control his true energy to flow towards his dantian.

However, there seemed to be an invisible barrier at his dantian, preventing the flow of true qi.

The biggest difference between the Condensation of Meridians and the Gathering of Qi lies in this.

Martial cultivators at the Qi Gathering Realm can open up a Qi Sea in their dantian, which can hold up to ten or even dozens of times more true Qi than those at the Qi Condensation Realm.

In particular, after the Qi Sea is condensed and transformed, the quality of true Qi of martial artists in the Qi Gathering Realm will be greatly enhanced.

Under normal circumstances.

The invisible barrier at the dantian of ordinary martial arts practitioners who condense their meridians is like a towering mountain, indestructible.

If they want to reach the Qi Gathering Realm, it will take them several years of relentless, painstaking effort to carve through this mountain.

But Lu Yuan was a cursed lone star, born extraordinary.

The barrier at his dantian was as thin as paper; it was completely broken through by the true energy in less than a breath!

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar like the creation of the world, a sea of ​​qi finally appeared in Lu Yuan's dantian.

All the true energy seemed to have found a new home, flowing into the Qi Sea like rivers flowing into the sea.

Lu Yuan felt a sense of relief throughout his body, with no more swelling or feeling of bursting!
With the appearance of this sea of ​​qi.

With his aura at its peak, Lu Yuan leaped forward and suddenly stepped into the third-grade Qi Gathering Realm.

Water accumulates to form a deep pool, and air gathers to form a sea.

This is precisely the mark of the Qi Gathering Realm!
Lu Yuan tried to use the Wind and Thunder Blade Technique and found that the speed of his true energy circulation was more than five or six times faster than before.

And after being concentrated and refined in the Qi Sea.

Both the quality and quantity of true qi far surpassed those before!
"Is this the strength of a third-grade Qi Gathering Realm cultivator?"

Lu Yuan clenched his fists, feeling as if his whole body was filled with endless true energy and power.

Compared with before.

His strength has increased at least tenfold!
If that pig demon were still alive, Lu Yuan wouldn't need to use the Wind and Thunder Blade Technique; he could easily kill it with just his powerful and abundant true energy!

the following few days.

Lu Yuan stayed indoors, focusing on consolidating his cultivation and realm.

Especially with the blessing of "Severing Emotions to Prove the Dao".

His progress in martial arts training was incredibly rapid.

It didn't take long for him to easily master the Yi Jin Duan Gu Gong and the Jiang Long Fu Hu Quan martial arts.

Yi Jin Duan Gu Gong is divided into four stages: beginner, minor success, major success, and perfection, which correspond to iron skin, copper skin, gold skin, and jade skin, respectively.

a few days later.

Lu Yuan's blood and qi surged, constantly flowing through his limbs and bones. The surging blood and qi were as violent and turbulent as a volcano, emitting a wave that made people's hearts palpable!

Just then, his body jolted violently, and large chunks of dead skin and old scabs fell off.

Then his bones trembled, his meridians roared, and a thunderous sound like that of a tiger and leopard resounded.

A hazy blue light emerged from Lu Yuan's skin, making his flesh and bones as hard as bronze and increasing his body's defense several times over!
When true energy permeates the bones, a blue light naturally arises.

This represents the initial stage of mastery in Yi Jin Duan Gu Gong!

Lu Yuan casually took a fine steel longsword from the knife rack and stretched out his right palm to try to grasp the blade.

"Crack!"

The sharp blade was like cutting into metal, unable to cause him any harm, not even leaving a white mark!

Then he suddenly exerted force with both hands.

The blade flipped and twisted.

With just his bare hands, Lu Yuan twisted the entire steel longsword into a pretzel!
"Skin of copper and bones of iron, impervious to swords and spears?"

Lu Yuan's eyes lit up.

It was discovered that after being enhanced, this body-refining martial art seemed to have ridiculously powerful effects.

It is even more powerful than the orthodox martial arts of the Great Buddha Temple!
