Chapter 84 Kidney Refining
Chapter 84 Kidney Refining
After the meal, it was already dark, and everyone was completely drunk.
There is joy in surviving a disaster, but also helplessness in the face of the current situation.
Even the Marquis of Jiu Sai blushed deeply, and finally returned to his room with Zhou Ren's help.
Lu Yuan was also slightly tipsy at this moment.
After saying goodbye to everyone, he headed home.
As we entered Ice Valley Alley, moonlight spilled into the shadows, casting dappled silver hues on the ground.
The young couple who used to live in the courtyard where Xiao Hua and her daughter lived seem to have moved away.
The gate to the courtyard was locked and covered in dust.
Lu Yuan ignored all of this and simply opened his courtyard gate. The expedition had lasted quite a while, and weeds had grown in the courtyard.
He went straight back into the house.
After opening the door, he threw the armor and bundle he had brought back aside, sat down on the bed, took out a greenwood fruit, and swallowed it directly.
This is a rare and precious medicine to be taken after one has achieved the goal of liver refinement.
Last time, Zhou Hongling made a bet with Zhao Yu and others and won two coins.
Now that the liver refinement is complete, there's no need to keep it. After consuming it, we can directly reach the kidney refinement stage today.
As soon as Lu Yuan ate the Green Wood Fruit, he immediately felt the abundant Wood Qi flowing towards his liver, nourishing his body.
A large amount of impurities are expelled from the body.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yuan felt completely refreshed.
He knew in his heart that it was time to begin cultivating his spirit, so he took out another greenwood fruit and put it in his mouth.
If Lu Yuan could see inside his body now, he would be able to see it.
My liver was completely enveloped by a green energy, and it had fully developed its divine essence.
At this point, Lu Yuan could be said to be immune to all poisons.
After all, the liver is responsible for detoxification. Even those who have achieved minor success in liver cultivation will develop resistance to ordinary poisons after breaking through to the next level.
Moreover, Lu Yuan has now cultivated his spirit, and it is no exaggeration to say that none of the poisons in the world can harm him.
"Buzz!"
As a tremor of power emanated from within his body...
Lu Yuan knew that he had officially broken through.
[The third-grade martial art, "Tiger Subduing Stance," refines the kidneys (0/10000 points, reaching mastery)]
Sure enough, he had already mastered the art of kidney cultivation.
Because the Golden Bell Shield provides such a powerful boost to the body.
In particular, the "Mixed Yuan Golden Bell Cover" can temper the internal organs.
Therefore, Lu Yuan's internal organs are now much stronger than those of a typical fifth-level Refining expert.
Once the purification process is complete and he reaches the point of blood transfusion, his advantages will become fully apparent.
"Tomorrow, I'll buy some kidney-refining pills. From now on, my cultivation will be on the fast track."
Lu Yuan murmured to himself, feeling the immense life essence within his body.
A look of joy appeared on his face.
At this moment, it seems as if there is endless energy in the body, especially the changes in the lower body.
Luckily, I'm all alone right now; it would be so awkward if there were more people around.
Moreover, many thoughts arose in his mind that made him feel hot all over.
"I've long heard that the most people who achieve mastery during the Kidney Refining stage are those who have completed their first stage. It seems there's some truth to that. And this is only at the Great Completion stage; if it were at the Perfection stage or the Spirit Nourishing stage, wouldn't that be even more extraordinary?"
As Lu Yuan pondered this, a bitter smile appeared on his lips.
Then, she stood up, but immediately realized that her clothes were a little too small.
"You've grown taller again."
He didn't expect that he was already quite tall, close to 1.9 meters, and now he would be about 1.95 meters tall.
However, he doesn't look thin; instead, his muscles are well-proportioned and strong, with distinct angles.
If he were to wear armor while standing still, he would probably look even more imposing.
Moreover, his power increased several times over at this time.
Lu Yuan was extremely satisfied with his current body.
After finishing his cultivation, seeing that it was still early, he rested.
Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Lu Yuan got up early because his clothes were too small, so he bought a new set of clothes.
After all, we agreed to go to Yanzhou with Marquis Jiu Sai today, so we can't delay.
He found a clothing store on the street, but it wasn't open yet, so Lu Yuan could only pound on the door.
"Who's that so early in the morning?"
The boss muttered to himself as he dressed, and after a moment he opened the door with a resentful look on his face. When he saw that it was Lu Yuan, his face immediately lit up with a smile: "It's General Lu. Greetings, General."
Lu Yuan is just a nobody in the entire Dayong Dynasty, but in Icefield City, he is absolutely a household name.
He already had countless military exploits, and this time I heard that he even accompanied the Marquis back to fight his way back.
Even the Marquis of Jiu Sai praised him in public, how could he not know?
"Hmm, do you have any clothes here that fit me?" Lu Yuan asked.
In the past, Xiao Hua made him several sets of clothes, which he could always wear.
He has never actually gone out to buy it himself.
The shopkeeper grinned and said, "With your size, I'm the only one who can find suitable clothes. I'll get them for you right away."
Then he went inside and a moment later took out a black brocade robe with cloud patterns.
"Give it a try."
"Okay." Lu Yuan nodded and took the clothes into the fitting room.
When he came out, the tailor shop owner's eyes lit up: "I've been a tailor for over twenty years, and this is the first time I've seen someone with such a good physique."
"How much silver?"
"General Lu, this garment was originally commissioned by a nobleman in Yanzhou. Since you're in such a hurry, I'll give it to you first. The material is Yun brocade transported from the south, and it's also lined with black silkworm silk, so it has some defensive properties. You can pay me fifty taels of silver."
The boss responded with a smile.
Although Lu Yuan knew that the other party was exaggerating—there were plenty of shops in Yanzhou, yet people would still eagerly come here to order clothes—he didn't say anything more.
He was indeed satisfied because the clothes were nice.
He took out a fifty-tael silver note, handed it to the shopkeeper, packed up the original clothes, and put them at home.
Then they headed towards the general's mansion.
This time, he did not bring the crescent-shaped blade, but only a hundred-refined longsword at his waist.
His upright posture standing at the entrance of the General's Mansion was a striking sight.
Just then, Marquis Jiu Sai, Zhou Ren, Zhou Hongling, and others came out and all cast admiring glances at them, especially the latter, whose eyes seemed to hold a different kind of light.
Lu Yuan's gaze towards Zhou Hongling was somewhat different today. As he scanned her perfect and large figure, he couldn't help but recall his fantasies from last night.
Then she lowered her head, a sight that made Zhou Hongling's lips curl up involuntarily.
This kid never used to look at me like that, but his gaze is a bit off today.
Realizing what was happening, Lu Yuan didn't dare to be negligent and quickly stepped forward, bowing and saying, "Greetings, Lord Marquis."
The other party waved his hand: "Don't be so polite. It's a long way to Yanzhou, let's set off directly."
After saying that, he mounted his warhorse.
Lu Yuan naturally followed closely behind.
Then, the group headed towards Yanzhou.
This was, in fact, Lu Yuan's first visit to this northern border prefecture.
