Chapter 10 Soft Rice (Please read on with the bowl)
Cao Wenzhen repeatedly reminded Lu Changjing what to do next and not to reveal any flaws.
But Lu Changjing soon thought of something and said worriedly, "Master Cao, even if there is nothing wrong with me in other aspects, what should I do if someone wants to assassinate me or needs to show off my strength?"
"Your Majesty is a mid-level Grandmaster, and I'm not even a warrior, so how can I deal with this situation?"
"Don't worry, your majesty has already anticipated this." Cao Wenzheng hesitated for a moment, and took out dozens of top-level talismans: "These are the Imperial Spirit Talismans, which contain your majesty's internal energy and can allow you to exert some of your majesty's strength at a critical moment."
"But these talismans must be used with caution. Unless absolutely necessary, they are not allowed to be used, and they cannot be used in random places."
After warning Lu Changjing for half an hour, Cao Wenzheng explained to him how to use these top-level talismans.
Lu Changjing took notes with full concentration. These things concerned his life, so how could he be careless?
After the explanation was finished, someone came to Cao Wenzhen again and asked him to deal with some urgent matters.
In desperation, Cao Wenzhen had to let Lu Changjing study on his own and hurried out of the imperial study.
Watching Cao Wenzhen's receding figure, Lu Changjing smiled slightly, breathed a sigh of relief, and began to concentrate on practicing the Five Elements Golden Body Technique, only devoting a little energy to reading the memorials.
In this world, the strong are respected. No matter how much you learn, it is not as good as a pair of iron fists.
Only by improving his cultivation level can Lu Changjing decide his own destiny, no longer be coerced by Cao Wenzhen, or even replace Ning Zhongyu.
He wants the three palaces and six courtyards, he also wants the vast territory, and he wants to live again. Since he has such an opportunity, how can he not seize it.
In the following days, he concentrated on practicing. Although he still had the flesh and blood of demons and the meat of spirit beasts to consume, his practice speed dropped significantly as he entered the realm of external forging.
Lu Changjing's physique has improved to a level comparable to that of a top-level warrior, and he is getting closer and closer to becoming a master.
According to Lu Changjing's speculation, one has to improve his physical fitness to about 100 points to be comparable to a master of body refining.
That means it will take about three months. If the Five Elements Golden Body Technique progresses smoothly, it will only take about two months.
However, because the effects of demons' and spirit beasts' flesh and blood have weakened, two months may not be enough.
Should we try to get some pills to take? The best auxiliary medicine for the Five Elements Golden Body Technique is the Five Elements Pill, but unfortunately there is none in the secret retreat room in the imperial study.
Even if there was, Lu Changjing didn't dare to take it, for fear of being discovered by Cao Wenzhen.
If that's the case, where can I get some Five Elements Pills next?
"Your Majesty, here I come again!"
Early that morning, Cao Wenzhen had just left the imperial study when Lu Changjing heard a familiar voice behind him.
Concubine Zhen, Tan Qingyun, came in with a happy smile, her teeth were as white as frost, and her pink dress fluttered in the wind.
Her hair is piled with green, with tassels hanging down, sparkling gems flickering in her hair, and the delicate hairpins swaying with her lotus steps, it is truly poetic and picturesque.
As soon as she saw Lu Changjing, she couldn't help but throw herself into his arms, hugged his neck and whispered softly: "Your Majesty, did you miss me?"
"Of course I thought about it." After the first time, there will naturally be a second time.
Lu Changjing carried Tan Qingyun and walked towards the back of the imperial study, and soon arrived at the secret retreat room.
In this way, if Cao Wenzhen suddenly comes back, Tan Qingyun can hide inside.
Soon Lu Changjing lowered his head again, covering Tan Qingyun's pretty face... "Your Majesty, I hope you can master the art of hiding your yang as soon as possible, so that you can favor me."
After a long while, Tan Qingyun said expectantly.
Her delicate and innocent face was already flushed, as if she was drunk.
Lu Changjing hugged her and said helplessly: "I also want to master the Hidden Yang Technique as soon as possible, but this magic is too difficult."
He sighed. It was not that the magic was too difficult, but that Cao Wenzhen was too difficult to deal with, and there was also Ning Zhongyu.
If one wants to replace the crown prince with a cat and become the real emperor of the Daning Dynasty, there are still many difficulties to be solved.
After some tenderness, seeing that Tan Qingyun wanted to leave, Lu Changjing hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Zhen Fei, when you come next time, bring me some Five Elements Pills, preferably top-grade ordinary medicine."
Panaceas are divided into three levels: ordinary medicines, spiritual medicines and magical medicines, which are further divided into low-level, medium-level, high-level and top-level.
Formations and weapons are similarly graded, much like elixirs.
The Five Elements Pills were tailor-made for the royal family by many ordinary pharmacists and alchemists. They are divided into four levels: low-level ordinary medicine, intermediate ordinary medicine, high-level ordinary medicine and top-level ordinary medicine.
Further up there are the Five Elements Pills, which are also divided into four levels: low-level elixirs, intermediate-level elixirs, high-level elixirs, and top-level elixirs.
With Lu Changjing's current physical condition, he can take the Five Elements Pills, which are top-level ordinary medicines, to improve his body cultivation at the fastest speed.
"Your Majesty has already cultivated the body of a master, why does he still need top-level ordinary medicine?" Tan Qingyun asked puzzledly.
Lu Changjing smiled and said, "I don't need them, but I prepared them for others. Don't tell anyone about this. You can collect them quietly."
"It's so mysterious. Could it be that His Majesty has a hidden mistress in the imperial study? Are these prepared for that pretty girl?" Tan Qingyun rolled her eyes and looked towards the depths of the secret retreat room.
Lu Changjing smiled bitterly: "The Five Elements Golden Body Technique is most suitable for men to practice, how could I pass it on to a woman? If you don't believe me, you can go in and take a look."
"Hehe, I know." Tan Qingyun smiled and turned away lightly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will handle this matter and will never let anyone else know. Your Majesty, just wait here."
Looking at Tan Qingyun's receding figure, Lu Changjing was a little confused. He didn't know whether what he was doing could be considered as living off her.
However, given his current situation, this is the only thing he can do if he wants to improve his cultivation level as quickly as possible.
Every day of delay would mean an extra day of danger for him, and there was nothing that could be done about it.
According to the original owner's memory, although this Concubine Zhen was a little greedy, a little naive, and a little simple... she was very strict about her words, and since she had agreed to this matter, she probably wouldn't tell anyone.
As long as Cao Wen Zheng doesn't know about it, nothing will happen.
Besides, he and Tan Qingyun are already so close. If Cao Wenzhen knew about this, he would not let him go either.
So don’t worry if you have too many debts, and don’t be afraid of the itch if you have too many lice
Only if he has sufficient strength as soon as possible can he ensure his own safety. Otherwise, he will be coerced by Cao Wen Zheng and even lose his own life.
Although the Immortal Demonic Body is powerful, it takes too long to upgrade, so it is still necessary to speed up the upgrade through other means.
With a nervous mood, after waiting for just over two days, Lu Changjing saw Tan Qingyun again.
