Chapter 32
Even though Lu Yuan wanted to start advancing toward the Foundation Establishment Stage, he knew that haste would not bring him any good.
At the moment, neither his luck value nor the marrow-cleansing pills were ready yet.
...Although Lu Yuan hadn’t been refining marrow-cleansing pills much in the past four years, through the refinement of the cultivating pill and other pills, his Metaphysical Pill Refinement Technique had the highest level among all his skills.
[Metaphysical Pill Refinement Technique (level 9): 8265/9000]
Given another year’s time, Lu Yuan would be able to reach level 10 in his current Metaphysical Pill Refinement Technique.
The levels of other skills such as the Fire Wielding Technique and the Exquisite Item Manipulation were still generally around level seven or eight.
With the level nine Pill Refinement Technique, ous the fact that the refinement method for marrow-cleansing pills was not much different from that of the cultivation pill, Lu Yuan felt that he was more than 98% confident that he could refine both ordinary and perfect marrow cleansing pills.
After settling the matter of the pills, Lu Yuan had another problem to solve, which was the problem of his luck value.
What was worth mentioning was that even after demoness Meng Ruyan left, Lu Yuan’s luck value was still able to increase.
Every time his skills or cultivation improved, his luck value would slowly increase.
Although the growth rate each time was not as much as cultivating with demoness Meng Ruyan, it was still growth, wasn’t it?
It was also through this that Lu Yuan roughly understood why there was a limit to the luck value of those with great luck that he had seen.
It was due to the existence of the Qingyun Sect that their future development was limited. The Qingyun Sect was like a big map in a game, and the level limit of this map was only 30. In that case, no matter how lucky Meng Ruyan and the others were, they would only be able to reach the level limit.
As for why Lu Yuan did not have an upper limit for his luck, he felt that it was because he had the system.
With the system, his future was indeed limitless.
After all, if one thought that a cheater would have an upper limit, was one looking down on the cheat or the cheater?
That being said, even though Lu Yuan had found a new way to obtain luck value, he had to admit that in terms of efficiency, obtaining luck from the demoness Meng Ruyan was still the most profitable.
It was just that the process was harsh on his body.
But to earn luck value, it wasn’t too shabby!
At the thought of this, Lu Yuan made his decision.
A year later would be the time for him to be released from his confinement. At that time, he would take the initiative to go look for demoness Meng Ruyan.
Moreover, this time, Lu Yuan felt that he should be able to take the initiative.
Although he had yet to form his Foundation Establishment Stage spiritual roots and was thus not a true Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, his spiritual energy that turned from air to liquid was not just for show.
He now had the spiritual energy reserves of the Foundation Establishment Stage, just without the buffs of the various Foundation Establishment spiritual roots.
Demoness Meng Ruyan might have been able to control him when he was at the Qi Cultivation Stage, but she could not easily do so when he was now at the half-step Foundation Establishment Stage!
However, the matter of going to demoness Meng Ruyan would have to wait. The marrow-cleansing pill and the cultivation of the wind spiritual root were his focus this year.
In the last year of his confinement, Lu Yuan planned to refine marrow-cleansing pills and cultivate the acquired wind spiritual root at the same time.
It would be best if he could cultivate the acquired wind spiritual root to the maximum level.
In the past, it had taken him almost five years to cultivate all five of his spiritual roots to perfection at the Qi Cultivation Stage.
However, that was because he needed to spend a large amount of time learning divine abilities, refining pills, and cultivating all five spiritual roots at the same time.
This year, he wasn’t planning on learning any new divine abilities. He was going to focus on cultivating his wind spiritual root.
With that, his efficiency would definitely increase by a lot, and a year’s time should be enough.
With such a clear goal in mind, the stable Lu Yuan’s life became routine again.
In the morning, he would refine the marrow-cleansing pill and the perfect cultivation pill. In the afternoon and night, he would cultivate the Breeze Mystical Scripture and form the acquired wind spiritual root.
With the help of a large number of perfect cultivation pills and marrow-cleansing pills to improve the aptitude of his spiritual root, Lu Yuan’s speed of cultivating the wind spiritual root could be said to be progressing at a tremendous pace.
If this continued, his life was quite enriched.
However, Lu Yuan had forgotten that he was not the only one in confinement at the back mountain!
…
Ten months later, in Lu Yuan’s confinement room.
“Junior brother, open the door! Junior brother! It’s your Senior Sister Mu!”
Lu Yuan’s brows started to twitch when he heard the shouts outside his residence.
Damn it, why was she here again?!
With the attitude that if he didn’t hear her, she wasn’t there, Lu Yuan played dead as he continued to refine his perfect cultivation pills and marrow-cleansing pills for the day.
However, a few minutes later, crackling explosions sounded outside.
Boom!
After another explosion, the door to Lu Yuan’s residence was blasted open.
The thing that had blasted the door open was a huge green sword.
Mu Qiqi carried a broken green flame puppet in each of her hands as she walked into Lu Yuan’s residence.
Lu Yuan was dumbfounded when he saw Mu Qiqi barging in.
Was she a guest or a bandit?
Seeing Lu Yuan’s expression, Mu Qiqi threw away the green flame puppets in her hand as if nothing had happened.
She struck first and said in a slightly complaining tone, “Junior Brother Lu, there’s something wrong with the design of your puppets! I’ve been here so many times, but they’ve attacked me every time they see me. Junior Brother, if you have time, you’d better improve their array, so that I don’t have to make such a huge commotion every time I come.”
Looking at the broken green flame puppets that he had just finished making, Lu Yuan almost couldn’t catch his breath.
No, did she have any EQ at all? Did she understand why he refined the green flame puppets every time? Wasn’t it all because he wanted her to stop bothering him for no reason?
To think she came to play with him every ten days to half a month instead.
Did she think that he had a sect leader as his father like she did and didn’t need to cultivate?
Facing Lu Yuan’s disdain, Mu Qiqi did not seem to feel it.
Or rather, she liked the way how Lu Yuan was clearly not fond of her but couldn’t get rid of her.
It was fun!
“Junior brother. what are you doing now? Let me see… Wow! You’re so boring. Every time I come to play with you, you’re always refining pills and cultivating. Don’t tell me that there’s nothing else in your life other than pill refining and cultivation?”
Calm down, calm down…
“Junior Brother, say something. Why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t tell me you’ve lost your mind from pill refining?”
Calm down, calm down, take a step back and everything will be fine, take a step back and everything will be fine…
Seeing that Lu Yuan still didn’t reply, Mu Qiqi stretched out her hand and waved it in front of him.
Was he so tolerant?
The corners of Mu Qiqi’s lips curled up slightly. Then, she pretended to be shocked and said, “I’m done for. My junior brother has gone crazy. What should I do?”
“Mu Qiqi, are you done? Don’t think that just because you’re the daughter of the sect leader, I…”
“Hmm? What will you do?”
Looking at Mu Qiqi, who had crossed her arms and was sitting opposite him with her legs crossed, Lu Yuan took a deep breath and said, “I’ll apply to move out!”
“Hahaha!” Hearing this, Mu Qiqi burst out laughing.
She almost made cried from the laughter.
“Junior Brother Lu, you’re too funny. Where do you think you’re going to move to in this huge Qingyun Sect? You don’t think that there’s a place I can’t go in the entire Qingyun Sect, do you? No way, you can’t really be that innocent, right?”
Damn it, why didn’t he have a sect leader as his father?!
At this moment, Lu Yuan hated himself for not having a strong connection.
Otherwise, how could he let Mu Qiqi take advantage of him?
What made Lu Yuan feel even more aggrieved than their incomparable backgrounds was that he could not even defeat Mu Qiqi!
This was just f*cking embarrassing.
He couldn’t beat her, and his background wasn’t as great as the other party either.
It seemed that he could do nothing other than be firmly controlled by the other party.
But he couldn’t take it anymore!
She had interrupted his cultivation time and time again. No matter what she said today, he, the steady Lu Yuan, would definitely give her a lesson!
“Mu Qiqi, I’m warning you. If you dare to barge into my residence like this again, I’ll tell the sect leader about this. Senior Sister Mu, you don’t want the sect leader to know that you’re running around while you’re in confinement, right?”
“Oh? It seems that Junior Brother Lu is determined to chase me away today?”
“Yes. Today, it’s either you leave or I leave. Either way, one of us must leave.”
“Sigh…” Mu Qiqi sighed and stood up.
Eh? Why was she so obedient? Something was wrong, something was very wrong!
Under Lu Yuan’s suspicious gaze, Mu Qiqi opened her storage bag, took out a black tortoiseshell, and played with it.
The moment this tortoiseshell appeared, Lu Yuan’s eyes lit up!
“Sigh, what a pity. Originally, when I heard that someone was preparing to cultivate the Nine Guard Tortoiseshell Technique, I specially exchanged for a five-thousand. year-old black tortoiseshell from the sect’s treasure vault… But since a certain someone doesn’t like me that much, then I should just leave.”
As she said that, Mu Qiqi decisively turned around and wanted to leave.
But the next second, a pair of hands suddenly grabbed the corner of her sleeves.
“Hold on!”
Mu Qiqi turned her head and looked at Lu Yuan, who was holding onto her and smiling.
She feigned puzzledness and asked, “Hmm? Junior Brother Lu, what’s wrong? Didn’t you say that one of us had to leave today? Since you’ve already said so, I’m just about to leave. Why are you still pulling me?”
“It’s a joke, it’s just a joke. Senior sister, please don’t take it seriously. Sit, please sit!”
Lu Yuan forcefully pulled Mu Qiqi and pressed her down on a chair beside him.
At this moment, Lu Yuan no longer had the unyielding spirit he had maintained just a second ago.
Now, not only did he take the initiative to massage Mu Qiqi’s shoulders, but he even said in a very gentle tone, “Senior sister, you’ve misunderstood. I just had an accident during my cultivation that led to the invasion of my heart demon. That’s why I said some nonsense. I hope you don’t take it to heart.”
“Oh? But I saw how serious you were when you said those words. Forget it, forget it. I’d better leave. After all, in a sense, the heart demon is also a person’s true self. The heart demon’s words are the true thoughts of a person.”
“Wait a moment!”
Seeing that Mu Qiqi was about to get up again, Lu Yuan instantly became anxious.
Leave? He couldn’t allow her to leave today! Even if she did leave, she had to leave him her 5000-year-old black tortoiseshell!
Looking at Lu Yuan who was blocking in front of her, Mu Qiqi had a teasing look on her face.
“Junior brother, do you have anything else to say?”
“Senior Sister, I admit that I was a little loud just now. I’ll apologize to you now…” As he said that, Lu Yuan bowed and apologized.
Seeing that Lu Yuan had completely given in, Mu Qiqi’s eyes turned into crescents as she smiled.
“In that case, junior brother, are you going to change your puppet array?”
“Immediately, I will change it! To think they dared to stop you, Senior Sister Mu, they’re simply blind!”
“Then, do I have to tell you in advance when I come looking for you in the future?”
“No need, no need, senior sister can come whenever you want, I will always be waiting.”
“Really?”
“Absolutely true!”
“Sigh, since you want me to stay so much, I won’t leave.”
Seeing that Mu Qiqi finally stayed, Lu Yuan almost cried.
Damn it, why did other transmigrators have harems after they transmigrated? They would madly flirt with beautiful women and have them in their grasp.
Why was that when it came to him, he was the one being madly toyed with by the beautiful women? Could it be that he didn’t have a majestic aura, nor the effect of making these beauties love-blind?
“Junior brother, why are you still standing there? Quickly take out something fun. I don’t believe that you haven’t come up with anything new this month.”
“Alright! Senior sister, please wait a moment.”
Forget it, never mind the matter of being toyed with.
Today, he had to dish out some of his traditional skills and make Senior Sister Mu happy.
He vowed to get the five-thousand-year-old black tortoiseshell. Even if a true celestial came to stop him, it would be useless!
Although his words were firm, his tone didn’t seem too firm.
Rather, why did his tone carry a hint of humiliation?
It was really strange…
