Under the seemingly painful appearance of self-immolation, Lu Sheng stared at the dark blue modifier in front of him with calm and deep eyes.
His consciousness, in just a few moments, had already clicked on the revised secret technique of the Demonic Body of Resentment several times.
There are only three levels of the Resentful Fire Demonic Body. With its continuous modifications, it only reached the second level in a very short time. It may break through the third level at any time.
But he did not continue to click. After the previously stored magic energy was consumed, it was rapidly recovering, which could fully meet the needs for the last level of improvement, but he did not do so immediately.
"With this kind of exercise, I can feel that my body is getting stronger."
Lu Sheng waited quietly, waiting for the level-destroying poisonous fire to crazily burn his whole body. Meanwhile, the nine Yin Demons around him were continuously supplying Yuan Demon Qi crazily. At the same time, they were also rapidly devouring and absorbing the poisonous mist outside.
The demonic energy of the river is used to transform and store it.
This is an extremely wonderful state, as if all the impurities in the body have been burned, and then the necessary parts are filled with magic flames, mixed with new flesh and blood, forming a brand new body.
Lu Sheng could feel himself getting bigger.
The original six-meter body is continuing to expand and grow. It is slowly changing towards seven meters, and the width of the body is getting more and more bloated, and the arms are getting thicker and thicker. Countless muscle tumors have accumulated, and only one of them has not changed much in size.
The face is embedded in the middle.
The whole thing seemed to be developing in the direction of the alien behemoth he had seen before.
"It's getting uglier and uglier." Lu Sheng said expressionlessly. He could guess how ugly he looked now without looking in the mirror. This was also the reason why he was often reluctant to change into the anode state.
The black flames burned, constantly burning the parts of his body that were not resistant to fire, and then forming new tissues that were more heat-resistant.
Lu Sheng's body size also followed this change, becoming bigger and heavier. A large amount of resentment-level poisonous fire spread along his body, burning the surrounding caves more and more black and solid.
The impurities turned into black smoke, leaving behind a crisp and dry black powder.
"Let's start the third level." After Lu Sheng got used to it for a while, he felt that the changes in his body were under control. He slowly stretched out his left arm and gave it a gentle squeeze.
A black flame rushed up from the palm of his hand. The flame trembled in mid-air, and then exploded instantly. It turned into three ropes and slowly rotated around Lu Sheng.
Chi!
Tsk tsk!!
The three ropes suddenly branched out into countless filament-like tentacles, completely covering Lu Sheng's head, almost covering his entire face and preventing him from breathing.
All the filaments completely formed a black mask, covering Lu Sheng's face.
Buzz
The mask trembled slightly, glowing with a black and purple light.
**********************
Bailing City, Huiyuan.
Huiyuan, located to the east of Bailing City and next to the moat, is a privately enclosed garden for flower viewing.
The entire garden occupies almost the entire east corner of Bailing City. A city wall was also cut off to connect Hui Garden with the outside suburbs.
When Lu Sheng arrived here, the sky had already darkened. The entrance to Huiyuan was a round-arched white stone door, with sculptures of unknown sacred birds like phoenixes standing on both sides.
Guards in city guard uniforms were guarding the outside, and there were many Hongyang carriages parked outside.
The so-called Hongyang Car is a carriage pulled by red goats. The red goats are cleaned extremely clean and tidy. They are divided into teams of three, and several teams pull a carriage. This is the most popular carriage for nobles to travel in Bailing City.
Lu Sheng and Chen Quansong got out of the car and looked at the lively but not crowded flow of people inside and outside Huiyuan. Their expressions were also different.
Although they were both invited to join, Chen Quansong was only barely qualified, while Lu Sheng was sent the invitation in her name by Shang Yangfei's subordinates. There was a huge difference between them.
But Chen Quansong couldn't be jealous even if he wanted to. In terms of strength and potential, no one could compare to Lu Sheng.
"Only now do I understand Brother Lu's persistence." Chen Quansong looked at the flow of people who kept walking into Huiyuan. The weakest people on their bodies all had three or four lines. He was just barely enough for the basics.
Only talented people like Lu Sheng are the protagonists of this gathering in Huiyuan.
He has always been fighting for power, and what he has always wanted can be easily obtained here in just one night.
Lu Sheng smiled. If Shangyang Jiuli hadn't asked him to come over, he wouldn't have wanted to attend such a boring party at all.
Shang Yangfei is powerful, but it’s none of his business. If you have this time, it’s better to practice more and cultivate the new demonic body as soon as possible.
"If what Li Shunxi said is true, then what's the point of such a gathering?" Lu Sheng glanced at the crowd at Huiyuankou.
There are young men from aristocratic families who are wild and wanton, and even use beautiful girls as stepping stools when they get off the bus.
Some people discuss current affairs loudly in public. Others are low-key and indifferent and do not make any publicity.
But the children of the aristocratic families who come here all have one thing in common, that is, they are young. There are also middle-aged people, but not many. As for the old people, there is not a single one.
"This Huiyuan is well-known in the circle. I hope Brother Lu can bring this beauty home with him this time." Chen Quansong said slightly sadly.
"What do you mean?" Lu Sheng was stunned and asked casually.
Chen Quansong was about to answer, but was interrupted by someone beside him.
"Brother Chen, long time no see, how are you doing?" A short, fat man with a beard that reached his chest walked towards Chen Quansong with a smile.
"It turns out to be Brother Zhao." Chen Quansong had no choice but to respond to others' greetings.
Lu Sheng was also quickly introduced into the circle by him, but he was indifferent to people and not warm and friendly, so no one said much to him soon.
Entering Huiyuan, someone immediately came to receive you. Small cocktail parties were scattered sparsely, attracting many guests to join. Different cocktail parties were also located in different parts of the garden.
Some set up a few stone tables in the forest, and some put grills and other grills in small pavilions to grill vegetables and barbecue.
Musicians were also invited to play the piano and music in a corner of the forest for everyone to watch.
The maid led Lu Sheng to a white pavilion, where a few people were standing here and there.
"Here." Shangyang Jiuli was also there, raising the cup in his hand towards him from a distance.
Standing next to her were several descendants of the Shangyang family and some small aristocratic families. These people were somewhat similar to her, with relatively cold temperaments and calm expressions. It was obvious at a glance that they must be people of considerable strength.
Lu Sheng hurried over and greeted Shangyang Jiuli.
"Part of the apology for what happened last time has been delivered. I will accept it on your behalf and will send it to your Yuan Mo Sect later. Please relax at this Huiyuan gathering and don't overthink it. Don't let it go if you have the chance."
." Shangyang Jiuli said incomprehensible words and did not introduce the people around him to Lu Sheng.
"Pepe." She motioned to the woman on her left to come over.
"Miss Jiuli." The woman wore a long white gauze dress, with a charming face and a hot and plump figure. Her long silver hair hung down behind her back to her vest, which was quite distinctive.
"This is my general Lu Sheng. I will leave him to you today. You must satisfy him, otherwise I will question you later!" Shangyang Jiuli warned.
The woman named Peipei smiled slightly and looked at Lu Sheng carefully.
"Since it is Miss Jiuli's order, Peipei will naturally go all out. Don't worry."
She knows Lu Sheng. Among the younger generation of the Shangyang family, apart from the family's bloodline, there are three people with other surnames who have the most potential, and among them is Lu Sheng.
This person was born in the Northland, and his bloodline is mysterious and unknown. The family once checked his background, but found out that his mother's generation was disconnected. This person's biological mother was not from the Northland, but was later adopted by a mortal family.
Originally, Lu Sheng was just a mortal, but he didn't expect that he would suddenly awaken his bloodline and rise all the way. Some old people in the family speculated that he might be from the bloodline of a secret family that once lived on some small islands in the ice ocean.
Judging from the abilities he has shown along the way, he should be of the Yang system divine weapon bloodline. An intelligence engineer in his family specially made a data sheet for analysis.
From then on, he has always taken good care of the Lu family where he was born. From the perspective of his success, this Lu family values love and righteousness, and is not a person who forgets his roots after becoming famous.
Therefore, the family's plan for him is to win over him as much as possible and integrate his blood into the Shangyang family. As long as he is tied to death on the Shangyang family's chariot, such a talent can be used by the family.
This is also one of the truly powerful sources of the Nine Families of the Central Plains. They constantly absorb the outstanding bloodlines that have evolved and split from the outside world. In this way, the remaining descendants of the bloodlines may be more powerful and more likely to resonate with the family's magic weapons, even if they cannot become masters.
It is also very easy to master the holy weapons and has extremely strong strength.
Peipei's beautiful eyes wandered as she grabbed Lu Sheng's hand.
"Master Lu, come with me. I will go to collect your apology first. There are also several young masters and ladies gathered in the bamboo forest on the other side. You are all talented people from my Shangyang family. It is good to get to know each other, right?
"
Lu Sheng easily broke away.
"You go, I'll follow."
His expression was dull and he completely ignored Pepe's hot and sexy outfit.
Peipei didn't take it seriously and led Lu Sheng through the crowd a few times and walked into a path from the side.
Crossing the path and crossing the small bridge, there is a quiet bamboo forest on the opposite side. There is the faint sound of guqin floating in the forest, and there are people dancing swords with one hand. The silver light is shining and the white light is flying. Looking from a distance, you can feel a chill on your face.
Come.
There are many hilly slopes on both sides of the bamboo forest, with many benches, tables and chairs placed in between.
The most amazing thing is that these hills have some holes of different sizes on the sides, allowing people to enter and exit.
At the edge of many hollows, Lu Sheng could see naked men and women entangled with each other.
Some of them were half-dressed but refused to welcome them, some were leaning against the stone wall and started to attack continuously. There were also some unrestrained ones, including several men and women together in a hilly cave.
Pepe walked in front and seemed accustomed to this scene.
"The key to our Nine Central Plains clans' ability to maintain their long-lasting prosperity and the number of clan members lies in the activities of this heart connection."
When Lu Sheng saw this, he looked at a group of men and women standing sparsely in the bamboo forest in front, and he understood.
Shang Yang Jiu Li still refuses to give up. If Shang Yang fails, I will try another method to get him to join the gang this time. Isn't this a heart-to-heart meeting or something like a blind date? It's also a free-spirited blind date, where you fall in love with someone you like.
.
"Meeting fate, as long as there is fate in your heart, in this kind of place, it doesn't matter whether you want to get married or not, we just want a good night." Pepei suddenly stopped. "We're here."
Lu Sheng stopped and looked around. There was some darkness on all sides, and he was just deep in the bamboo forest where there was no light from the lanterns.
The sound of the piano is also vague and not very clear.
"Lord Jiu Li mentioned to me something about you and Miss Shangyang Ruo before. In order to make up for the rudeness last time, the family decided to open to you a special place in the heart, the Red Pavilion." Peipei said softly.
