In his mind's eye, Lu Qing was in a furnace.
His mind was constantly being tempered, giving him the feeling that he would be annihilated and his body would perish at any moment.
But he knew it was all a lie.
So he remained completely unmoved, silently reciting the incantation of the cultivation technique in his mind, enduring all of this in silence.
After an unknown amount of time, the flames around him gradually died down, the furnace dissipated, and the wisp of divine soul power returned to his acupoints.
Lu Qing immediately noticed the difference.
He felt that his spiritual power was significantly stronger than before.
A hint of joy appeared in his eyes.
"This furnace visualization method is indeed worthy of being a cultivation technique from the era of immortality. It has already significantly enhanced my spiritual power on my first attempt at practicing it."
With such profound techniques, it's not unrealistic for me to completely master the realm of 【Intent】 before reaching the Innate stage.
Even the condensation of soul talismans is something that can be imagined.
Thinking of the various mysterious descriptions of soul talismans in the Divine Talisman Sect's inheritance, Lu Qing couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Since coming into this world and awakening his superpowers, he has received many inheritances.
Among them, the most precious inheritances are those of the Divine Talisman Sect and the Li Huo Sect.
These two lineages, the Li Huo Sect lineage, originated from the era of cultivation.
However, the origin of the Divine Talisman Sect's lineage remains a mystery.
Lu Qing was unable to learn about the past of the Divine Talisman Sect through the inheritance.
Even in the Li Huo Sect's lineage, there is no mention of the Divine Talisman Sect.
Lu Qing had no idea which of the two sects was stronger.
However, in his heart, the Divine Talisman Sect was far more mysterious than the Li Huo Sect.
The art of runes is far more profound than the techniques of the Li Huo Sect.
You should know that Lu Qing possesses supernatural abilities, which is a kind of extraordinary cheat code.
No matter what you study, you can do it incredibly quickly.
Even so, it still took him a long time to barely grasp the basics of runes.
Now, they haven't even been able to condense a divine soul talisman.
One can imagine how difficult it is to cultivate the art of runes.
The path of runes also differs from ordinary methods of cultivating immortality.
It emphasizes that all things in heaven and earth are my teachers, and similarly, all things in heaven and earth are also my tools.
It is not subject to spiritual energy and can still be used even when spiritual energy is scarce.
However, its power is not that strong.
With such a powerful legacy, Lu Qing would naturally not give it up.
Therefore, he has never relaxed his efforts in refining the divine soul talisman.
However, due to the limitations of the power of the soul, the speed of condensation has never been fast.
The 【Furnace Visualization Technique】 is now so effective that it can quickly enhance one's spiritual power.
With the prospect of completely condensing the Divine Soul Talisman in sight, how could Lu Qing not be excited?
After contemplating the future for a while, Lu Qing noticed that it was getting late. He composed himself, put his battle sword into his Qiankun Qi Bag, and then headed home.
Once home, I pulled Xiaoyan and Xiaoli out of bed, urged them to wash up, and then had breakfast.
Lu Qing then led the two little ones towards the small courtyard halfway up the mountain.
"Aqing, Xiaoyan, are we going to see Doctor Chen?"
Villagers encountered them on the road and greeted them warmly.
At the same time, she couldn't help but glance a few more times at Xiao Li on Lu Qing's shoulder.
After returning from the county town, Lu Qing stopped asking Xiao Li to hide her identity.
After all, it appears every day in the county town.
Moreover, he no longer needs to worry about anyone harming Xiao Li.
So last night, many people in the village saw Xiao Li and learned that she was Lu Qing's pet.
However, because Xiao Li's appearance is so unique and full of spirit.
So even after they knew of its existence, the villagers were still amazed.
"Yes, I wonder if Master has gotten up yet," Lu Qing said with a smile.
"Then he must be up. I just passed by the foot of the mountain and saw the old doctor practicing tai chi in front of the courtyard."
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the villagers, Lu Qing led the two little ones up the mountain. When they arrived at the small courtyard halfway up the mountain, they saw that his master was indeed in the courtyard.
To his surprise, there was another person there as well.
"Your Excellency Zhi Rui?"
Lu Qing was quite surprised to see the young man in plain clothes drinking tea with his master under the plum tree.
I never expected to run into him here.
"Young Master Lu".
The young man in plain clothes smiled slightly and nodded to Lu Qing.
"Your Excellency Zhi Rui, what brings you here? Has something happened in the county town again?" Lu Qing couldn't help but ask.
In his memory, this person's whereabouts were always somewhat elusive, and he would only visit the temple if there was a reason.
Moreover, he had learned some information about the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion from the Wei family's ancestor these days, and he was still quite wary of this person.
Knowing the other party not only means having access to a lot of hidden information that is unknown to others.
They even seem to possess unique abilities and exceptional insight.
"Everything is safe in the county town. According to the news from my Tianji Tower, Wang Cangyi has led his disciples back to Tiancang Sect. Young Master Lu, there is no need to worry. As for myself, I have also left the county town and am preparing to travel to other places," the young man in plain clothes explained.
"So, Your Excellency has come here this time?"
"Of course I miss the flower tea made by Doctor Chen," the young man in plain clothes said with a smile. "I have already squandered the flower tea I got from the doctor that day. Now that I am craving it, I can only shamelessly ask for a few more cups before I leave."
"Hehe, that's easy. It's rare that Your Excellency likes it so much. I'll give you some more later as a small farewell gift," the old doctor chuckled.
"Then I, Zhirui, thank you very much, esteemed doctor," the young man in plain clothes said happily.
After obtaining the flower tea, the young man in plain clothes finally straightened his expression.
"Of course, besides asking you for tea, I also have some things I'd like to discuss with you."
Lu Qing:...
He knew that this person couldn't have come just for a little flower tea.
"Please speak, Your Excellency Zhi Rui."
The old doctor had obviously expected this, so he wasn't surprised.
"The first thing is about Young Master Lu."
"It has something to do with me?" Lu Qing asked in surprise.
“That’s right. I just received news that yesterday, the Seven Kill Tower officially issued the Seven Kill Order to you, intending to assassinate you.”
"Seven Killings Order..."
Lu Qing's expression slowly darkened, becoming somewhat solemn.
"That's right, so young master Lu, you are now a well-known figure in the assassin world."
It should be known that the Seven Killings Decree of the Seven Killings Tower is issued only once every few decades. Countless people want to know who this person is that could provoke the Seven Killings Tower to issue a Seven Killings Decree to hunt them down.
"If I could, I wouldn't want this kind of reputation," Lu Qing said, somewhat speechless.
Being the focus of the entire assassin world, even he couldn't help but feel some pressure.
“Young Master Lu, with your martial arts skills, from the moment you decided to go to the county town to save the Wei family, it was destined that you would rise to fame and shake the world.” The young man in plain clothes shook his head and said.
"The second thing I want to say is still related to you."
"Oh?" Lu Qing raised an eyebrow. "Could there be anything worse than being assassinated?"
"This time, it should be a good thing."
The young man in plain clothes took out a scroll from his pocket and placed it on the table.
"Here is a list called the Hidden Dragon List, which was created by my Heavenly Mystery Pavilion by gathering countless young talents and genius martial artists from all over the world."
It is a list that countless young martial artists dream of entering.
And young master Lu, you are on the list.
