To be honest, the reason why Fang Ruhai recommended Lu Chen to Qiao Ruxue was not because he thought Lu Chen had a good chance of winning, but because it was really difficult to find another practitioner like Lu Chen in Qingfeng City.
In addition, Lu Chen had business dealings with Zhenbao Pavilion. Fang Ruhai felt that making friends with Lu Chen could be regarded as an investment in the future. Lu Chen had great potential to become an alchemist!
But now, Qiao Ruxue's attitude seemed to have too much confidence in Lu Chen.
Seeing the confusion on Fang Ruhai's face, Qiao Ruxue chuckled again, her eyes shining.
"Ruhai, you should know that after Lu Chen entered this room, I tested his realm, right?" Qiao Ruxue said with a smile.
"Well, I guessed it. I said Lu Chen is now in the late stage of marrow cleansing, so you will definitely test it. And the result is that I was obviously right!" Fang Ruhai nodded.
"You guessed that I was testing Lu Chen's realm, but you couldn't guess that Lu Chen discovered that I was testing his realm." Qiao Ruxue's eyes narrowed slightly.
Her confidence in Chase Lu is certainly not without reason.
"What?"
"City Lord, what are you talking about?"
"Haha, how is this possible? If you test his realm, can he detect it? It is impossible for ordinary cultivators in the innate realm to do it! Lu Chen is not a cultivator in the innate realm yet." Fang Ruhai looked at Qiao Ru in disbelief.
Snow.
Don't blame him for being surprised.
How strong is Qiao Ruxue? In terms of realm, she is even slightly ahead of Fang Ruhai. If Qiao Ruxue tries to test the realm of a practitioner who is in the marrow-cleansing realm, will he be discovered?
Are you kidding me?
"Ruhai, I'm not kidding, it's true!" Qiao Ruxue put away her smile and said seriously, "I released a ray of divine soul power to test Lu Chen's realm, but with this ray of divine soul power, I couldn't
He took it back and destroyed it."
Qiao Ruxue lightly flicked her jade fingers on the armrest of the seat.
It is also necessary to release the power of the soul, at least the cultivation level of the Wuji Realm. The cultivators of the Wuji Realm open up the sea of consciousness and form the soul body, so they can release the power of the soul.
When her soul power was wiped out by Lu Chen, even she was shocked.
Seeing Qiao Ruxue's expression, Fang Ruhai also knew that Qiao Ruxue was really not joking, what she said was the truth.
"call!"
After a moment of pause, Fang Ruhai exhaled a breath.
"This kid is really extraordinary!" Fang Ruhai's eyes also flashed with light. Like Qiao Ruxue, she also had more expectations for the battle four days later.
"Lord City Lord, Young Master Lu Chen has been settled." At this time, guard Qiao Ruye walked in again and bowed to Qiao Ruxue.
"Well, if you work hard again, go to the Lu family and tell me that Lu Chen will stay in the city lord's mansion to do me a favor in the near future, so that they don't need to worry about Lu Chen's safety." Qiao Ruxue told Qiao Ruye.
"Yes!" Qiao Ruye looked at Qiao Ruxue, but he didn't ask any more questions. After answering, he quickly turned around and left.
Lu Family Courtyard!
The head of the family, Lu Jinyun, and all the elders were indeed unable to calm down completely.
The people Lu Jinyun sent to the city lord's mansion to inquire about the news did not come back either.
Although Qiao Ruye seemed to have a very polite attitude and no ill intentions when he came, Lu Jinyun and others could not help but worry.
They were not afraid that the city lord Qiao Ruxue wanted to harm Lu Chen, but they were worried about what means the Wang family would use to reach an agreement with the city lord. If this was the case, and the city lord asked Lu Chen to come over now, the consequences would be very worrying.
Just when Lu Jinyun and others were anxiously waiting for the news to come back, Qiao Ruye, the captain of the city lord's palace guard, came again and brought them a piece of news.
"What?"
"Lord City Lord, do you want Lu Chen to help?"
"In the recent period, will Chen Lu be in the city lord's mansion? Not going back to the family?"
Upon hearing the news, everyone present from the Lu family, including Lu Jinyun, was a little stunned.
Lord City Lord, you actually want Lu Chen to help?
What exactly is going on?
However, Lu Jinyun and others felt relieved, at least things did not develop in a situation that was unfavorable to Lu Chen and the Lu family. If Lu Chen was really in danger, it was impossible for the city lord to let Qiao Ruye come to deliver the news.
"Third Elder, are you relieved now?" Lu Jinyun looked at Lu Tianxing, who was pacing restlessly in the room just now, and said with a smile.
In fact, he himself was very anxious.
"Haha, when did I become worried?" Lu Tianxing said with a smile, "It's time for me to go back and rest. Master, I'll take my leave now!"
Lu Tianxing cupped his hands and turned around to leave the room in the main courtyard.
Then, the other elders also left one after another.
City Lord's Mansion, in a guest room.
The furnishings in this room are not luxurious, but they are very exquisite. The utensils are relatively exquisite and the layout is quite grand.
At this time, Lu Chen was sitting cross-legged on the bed in the room, breathing evenly, and his eyes were looking at the green jade bottle in his hand.
Inside the jade bottle is spiritual liquid, which is extremely precious to cultivators.
"bring it on!"
"It is said that spiritual liquid is of great benefit to cultivators in the innate realm. As an acquired cultivator, I don't know what kind of improvement I will get if I use spiritual liquid." Lu Chen was also extremely looking forward to it.
The brilliance flashes in the center.
After getting rid of distracting thoughts, he opened the mouth of the green jade bottle in his hand.
There was no smell coming out of the jade bottle. Obviously, the spiritual liquid had no smell.
Lu Chen looked at the inside of the bottle from the mouth of the bottle.
"Um?"
"Empty?"
With his eyes focused, Lu Chen's brows also wrinkled.
Because, when he looked inside through the mouth of the bottle, he didn't see any spiritual liquid.
"What's going on? Lord City Lord, you're not going to deceive me, are you? Could it be that she took the wrong bottle?" Lu Chen's brows were furrowed, and he gently shook the jade bottle in his hand.
"Um?"
"Isn't it completely empty?" Lu Chen soon discovered that the jade bottle was not completely empty. There was indeed a small amount of liquid in it. It was just too little, so he didn't see it with his eyes just now.
Moreover, this liquid has no color and looks just like water. However, it is much thicker than water.
"Holy shit!"
"Lord City Lord, aren't you too stingy?"
"One drop? Just one drop?"
After careful confirmation, Lu Chen knew that there was only one drop of spiritual liquid in the jade bottle.
"A drop of spiritual liquid counts as a bottle?" Lu Chen remembered that when the city lord Qiao Ruxue threw the jade bottle to him, he told him that it was for him a bottle of spiritual liquid.
Lu Chen rubbed his palms in disappointment.
"Forget it, let's try it first!" Lu Chen shook his head, poured a bottle to his mouth, and poured the only drop of spiritual liquid in it into his mouth.
"boom!"
"Whoosh!"
As soon as the spiritual liquid entered the mouth, it seemed to turn into a ball of blazing flames, as if it was going to burn Lu Chen's body.
Lu Chen's face turned red all of a sudden, as if he had just jumped out of the fire.
What a terrifying spiritual power!
Lu Chen didn't dare to be careless at all, and the Qiankun Mental Technique quickly started to work.
The spiritual power contained in the spiritual liquid is quickly absorbed and transformed. While the spiritual power is transformed into internal power, Lu Chen's martial arts meridians are also being subtly and continuously expanded!
So strong! What a powerful force!
Lu Chen felt that his internal strength was increasing by a level almost every time he breathed. The effect of the spiritual liquid was too terrifying.
No wonder, even the cultivators of the Lu family's innate realm cannot get such good things for their cultivation.
The mind of Qiankun continues to run wildly.
As time went by, more and more spiritual energy was transformed and absorbed, and Lu Chen's internal strength became stronger and stronger.
Unknowingly, one day passed. On the second night, Lu Chen's body shook slightly.
The effect of this drop of spiritual liquid was also complete, and it was absorbed by Lu Chen.
"Huh!" Lu Chen took a long breath and opened his eyes.
"The spiritual liquid is really a terrifying thing. Just a drop of it actually allowed me to advance directly from the late stage of marrow cleansing to acquired perfection!" Lu Chen also sighed in his heart.
Before using the spiritual liquid, Chase Lu thought the city lord was too stingy. But now, he realized how valuable this drop of spiritual liquid was.
If this drop of spiritual liquid were to be auctioned, it would probably be worth at least one hundred thousand gold coins, right?
"The day after tomorrow has been perfected. It can be said that we have touched the barrier of the innate realm! So, can we work hard to advance to the innate realm?" Lu Chen squinted his eyes and started thinking.
Unknowingly, he took out the Qi Condensation Pill that the family had rewarded at that moment.
Lu Chen felt that with the assistance of the Qi Condensing Pill and his perfect quality marrow cleansing potion, he had a great chance of being promoted to Innate.
"Boy, what are you thinking about?" At this time, the ancestor Lu Jie appeared and stared at Lu Chen.
"Ah? What's wrong?" Lu Chen was slightly startled.
"Hmph, this kind of garbage can also be used to advance to the innate realm?" Lu Jie pointed to the Qi Condensation Pill in Lu Chen's hand and said with an extremely disdainful expression.
"Garbage?" Lu Chen was really stunned this time.
Qi Condensing Pill, something that many cultivators in the late stage of marrow purification dream of, turns out to be trash according to ancestor Lu Jie?
"To say it is rubbish is to praise it! Humph, do you know how likely it is that you will fail in your promotion if you use this kind of rubbish? And once your promotion fails, your soul will be affected. Do you know that in the next few years?
You won't have another chance to try to advance to the innate realm?" Lu Jie rolled his eyes.
Of course Lu Chen understands what Lu Jie said.
However, if you don't use the Qi Condensing Pill, wouldn't the possibility of promotion be even smaller?
If it were easy to advance to the Xiantian realm, there would not be so few Xiantian realm cultivators in Qingfeng City. In the Lu family, among the tens of thousands of cultivators, there would only be a mere dozen or so Xiantian realm cultivators.
.
But, even if it’s difficult, you still have to try, right?
Just as Lu Chen was about to speak, he was interrupted again by Lu Jie.
"Boy, listen to me. Throw away this garbage as soon as possible. You, continue to refine the potion for me. When you can refine a super perfect potion that can absorb 80%, I will teach you how to refine it.
Qi Condensing Pill." Lu Jie snorted and disappeared from Lu Chen's sight.
Lu Chen was confused!
The perfect potion?
Lu Chen had never heard of the existence of such a thing as a perfect potion in this world.
Can absorb 80% of the efficacy?
This is simply impossible!
Not to mention super-perfect potions, even perfect potions are extremely rare.
In Qingfeng City, some perfect quality bone refining potions will appear at the auction of Zhenbao Pavilion. Even perfect quality body tempering potions are almost extinct.
And the ancestor, Lu Jie, actually asked him to refine a super perfect potion?
However, although Lu Chen felt incredible, he also knew that the ancestor Lu Jie was not joking. The ancestor Lu Jie said that when he could refine a super-perfect quality potion, he would teach him how to refine the Qi Condensing Pill.
