C13 Opening up the Small Profound Veins

Lu Jun stayed in cultivation room for three days and three nights.

During these days, he had been cultivating without any sleep or rest. He had swallowed all thirty bottles of Blood Qi Pill, and the remaining poison in his body had been expelled from his body. He had gotten rid of his worries.

At the same time, he needed to refine the Profound Spar and expand the Profound Qi in his dantian.

There were generally two sources of Profound Spar. One was extracted from the ore that contained the Profound Qi underground, and the other was extracted from the core or spirit herbs of demon beasts.

After refining a Profound Spar, Lu Jun could fill up half of the Profound Qi in his dantian.

Under normal circumstances, one had to refine and absorb a Profound Spar at the second level of the Martial Path. It would take half a month, and the slowest would take up to a month. Even a few months, a year, two years... Of course, if it took that long, he could basically say goodbye to the cultivation world.

Lu Jun had the Poison King's Divine Book, a heaven-grade cultivation method, and it was expected to be completed in five days.

Strangely, when he channeled his energy to absorb the Profound Spar's Profound Qi and circulated his Profound Vein, his efficiency increased by many times.

One had to know that absorbing the Profound Qi was not too difficult, but the hardest part was to convert the Profound Qi he absorbed into his dantian. This process was extremely long. Why was it so much faster than he had expected?

Finally, Lu Jun discovered that the Purple Wood King Cauldron in his dantian seemed to be releasing some kind of strange medicine.

It was because of this matter that the settling period was shortened.

The Purple Wood King Cauldron was a supreme treasure from the ancient times, but almost no one knew about the origin and use of this treasure.

Lu Jun had been studying it for the past few days. From this, he learned that as long as it absorbed the poison from the outside world, it would automatically refine the poison into a medicine that was beneficial to the human body. It was precisely because of the nourishment of the medicine that his physique became stronger and stronger.

At this moment, there was another discovery.

It turned out that it was actually able to produce a specific medicine, causing the efficiency of refining the Profound Spar to increase by many times.

In the end, he successfully refined and absorbed a Profound Spar. He only used a day's time.

Filling up the Profound Qi in his Dantian would allow him to charge into a higher realm.

Wanting to break through to a higher realm was even more difficult. From the beginning of the martial path to the later realms, the difficulty would be greater. Some martial artists would even stay at a certain stage for the rest of their lives and would never be able to break through again.

Hence, there were countless martial artists. It was rare to see one who could truly become an expert.

Lu Jun combined his rich experience from his past life and took fewer detours. If he refined another Profound Spar, he would be able to charge into the third realm of martial arts. However, he did not do so.

He planned to continue opening the Profound Vein.

The human body had a total of seven great Profound Vein, also known as the main Profound Vein. Each main Profound Vein also hid nine small Profound Vein. As long as one opened the main Profound Vein in the Martial Dao Initiation realm, then there would be a chance to open up a small Profound Vein.

The more Profound Vein martial artists opened up, the faster they absorbed the Profound Qi.

Of course, not everyone had the ability to open up all the Profound Vein.

Lu Jun had opened up all seven main Profound Vein in his body. His goal was naturally to open up more Minor Profound Vein.

The Minor Profound Vein was connected to the main Profound Vein, so it was relatively easier to open it up. Because in the lower realms, nothing was fixed. The earlier one opened it up, the more beneficial it would be for one's future cultivation. Lu Jun hoped to open up as many Minor Profound Vein as possible in one go.

Opening the Profound Vein was a physical activity that required a large amount of Profound Qi.

When he opened up five Minor Profound Vein in one go, he had already used up more than half of the Profound Qi in his dantian. Hence, he refined another Profound Spar and replenished it before continuing to circulate his energy to open the Profound Spar. Only then did he open up all nine Minor Profound Vein connected to the first main Profound Vein.

Just as he was about to open up the second main Profound Vein, he was unable to open it no matter what.

"What's going on?"

Lu Jun felt that it was very strange. After a round of testing, he immediately turned pale with fright. Originally, he could tell that this body was suffering from a kind of chronic disease. This was the reason why he was so weak that he could not cultivate. After refining a large amount of the poison's medicinal properties, he thought that the chronic disease had already been removed. However, only now did he know that the poison had not been completely removed. Instead, it had been transferred into the second main Profound Vein.

"What kind of poison is this? Why is it so difficult to cure it?"

With Lu Jun's knowledge, there was no poison in this world that he didn't recognize. However, he couldn't tell what kind of poison was contained within the Profound Vein.

This poison didn't seem fatal. It was hidden within the Profound Vein. It prevented the Profound Qi from absorbing it. Because it was hidden too deeply, it was very difficult to discover the existence of this poison. Although Lu Jun had become a martial artist now, the poison had been transferred into the Minor Profound Vein. It's even more troublesome. If he couldn't resolve this poison, he wouldn't be able to continue opening the Profound Vein. His future achievements would still be very limited.

Perhaps, the poison would cause a mutation in the future, and cause a lot of trouble.

"If I want to cure this poison, I have to find out what kind of poison it is. How did the previous owner of this body get infected with this poison? What kind of experience did he have? Also, he looks like an ordinary person. Why did the legendary Purple Wood King Cauldron appear in his Dantian? Could it be that there's some kind of connection between the two?"

These problems could only be solved slowly in the future. Currently, his cultivation could only be interrupted, so he decided to leave cultivation room first.

After these three days of cultivation, he had gained a lot.

After refining the last Profound Spar, he finally broke through to the third level of the Martial Path. With his current strength, if he fought with Lu Bo again, even if he did not use the Poison Palm, he would still have the confidence to win.

One had to know that Lu Bo had cultivated for close to ten years, and he had only cultivated for less than ten days.

Just as Lu Jun opened the door to cultivation room, he saw seven or eight Lu Clan disciples walking towards him. When they saw him come out, their faces immediately revealed a joyful expression. Then, they rushed forward and surrounded him.

Those who were able to climb to the sixth floor of the cultivation tower were undoubtedly experts. They were at least at the fifth level of the Martial Path.

One of them was a tall young man with a dark green forehead. He said, "little marquis, my name is Lu Xun. Master Tian'en and a few other leaders have sent us to invite you to the Haoran Hall."

Although Lu Xun was only a branch disciple, due to his extraordinary talent, he was only twenty years old and had reached the sixth level of the Martial Path.

He was highly regarded in Lu Mansion and was one of the few people who were focussed on.

Lu Jun said, "I'm very busy right now. We'll talk about it another day." After he finished speaking, he was about to leave. Who knew that those people had no intention of making way for him?

Lu Xun smiled and said, "The leaders said that they have important matters to ask little marquis to come. They hope that little marquis will not make things difficult for us."

Lu Jun thought for a moment and nodded. He said, "That's good too."

When he saw these people appear in front of him, Lu Jun had a bad feeling about the situation. If it was just a message, there would not be such a big commotion. Obviously, if he was determined not to go, this group of people would probably make a move to make trouble. Although his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, he was facing so many fifth and sixth ranks of the Martial Path after all. No matter what, he was unable to escape.

At the same time, he also felt that it was strange, as he did not understand what had happened.

Hao Ran Hall was the guest hall of Lu Mansion, and there were four vigorous and powerful words written on the plaque - Righteous Qi.

At this time, there were many people outside the door. Lu Jun noticed that everyone's eyes had a strange look in them. When his gaze swept across Lu Bo's face, he saw the corner of ___'s mouth twitch a few times, and his eyes were filled with intense hatred. There was also a hint of schadenfreude mixed in.

When he stepped into the main door of Hao Ran Hall, he saw that Lu Tian'en and the other four leaders were all present.

After Lu Xun led Lu Jun in, he turned around and left.

At this moment, everyone in the hall looked at Lu Jun in unison.

Lu Jun noticed that besides the four leaders, there was another person sitting in the VIP seats.

This person's clothes were gorgeous. He was about fifty years old, short and thin. He looked sickly. He held a folding fan in his hand and waved it gently. He looked arrogant and rude. When he saw Lu Jun appear, two rays of elite light flashed in his eyes.

The entire hall was filled with killing intent.

Lu Tian'en, who was sitting at the head seat, said, "Lu Jun, it's good that you're here. This is Mr. Chang Wuming Chang. I believe you must have seen him before. Hurry up and greet him."

Chang Wuming?

Meet him? This person was the one who poisoned South Marquis! However, he could actually swagger and sit in the VIP seats of Lu Mansion. This was too ironic. He never thought that the current Lu Mansion would fall to such a state. It was totally devoid of moral integrity.

Lu Jun said with a calm expression, "Call me here. If you have anything to say, just say it."

Lu Tian'en's face darkened. Obviously, he was dissatisfied with Lu Jun's attitude, but he didn't say it out loud. He coughed dryly and faced Chang Wuming, saying, "Mr. Chang, he is the son of South Marquis, Lu Jun."

Chang Wuming nodded, stood up and said, "So you are still alive."

His tone was full of hatred. He walked towards Lu Jun with big steps.

That day, when Yan Hao and Liu Xin died in the Poison Cave, Chang Wuming had always felt puzzled. When he heard that Lu Jun was still alive, he naturally linked the two incidents together. It was fine if the two disciples died, but what pained him was that the poison pill that he had painstakingly refined had disappeared. When he saw Lu Jun appear, he intended to capture him and investigate the matter of the poison pill.

"What do you want to do?"

Lu Tianshou suddenly stood up and reached out his hand to stop Chang Wuming.

Chang Wuming glared at Lu Tianshou and said in an overbearing manner, "Lu Jun has committed a heinous crime. I, Chang, am here on the orders of the Crown Prince to capture him. Third Master Lu, do you dare to shield him?"

Lu Tian'en shouted in a stern voice, "Tianshou, get out of my way!"

Lu Tianshou suddenly looked at Lu Tian'en and said, "Brother Tian'en, are you going to let an outsider take little marquis away just like that?"

Lu Tian'en sighed and said, "Of course I don't want this to happen, but there are laws in the country and rules in the family. Lu Jun has broken the law, so he can only plead guilty and go to jail. I can't do anything about it."

Lu Tianshou snorted and said, "The matter of little marquis offending Princess Lingyue was only the Crown Prince's one-sided statement. If you want to take her away without any solid evidence, I can't agree to it."

"Impudent!"

Lu Tian'en slammed the table and stood up, shouting, "Will the Crown Prince frame Lu Jun? Tianshou, you don't have to worry about this matter anymore. Quickly get out of the way and let Mister Chang take Lu Jun away. I believe that the Crown Prince will handle this matter fairly. "
