Chapter 181 The Walking Gift Bag is Back

When a soul-enhancing pill fell into his mouth, Lu Changjing could clearly feel the rapid increase in his spiritual power.

The feeling of rapid growth in cultivation is truly intoxicating.

Ever since breaking through the realm of gods and demons, Lu Changjing hasn't taken any elixirs to improve his practice for a long time. The reason is simple: he is short of money.

Now that I have finally obtained a bottle of magic pill, I can once again experience the rapid growth brought by the pill.

Although it was only a low-level divine pill, and could only increase his cultivation speed by dozens of times, it was already extremely precious.

There are only ten soul-benefiting pills in a bottle, and they are most effective for low-level gods and demons. If taken by mid-level gods and demons, they will still be effective, but only a fraction of the effect.

If it goes any higher, there will be no effect.

Ordinary low-level gods and demons only take a few pills a month. Taking more will easily affect the foundation of their cultivation. But Lu Changjing is different. He dares to take one every day.

If he had enough soul-benefiting pills, Lu Changjing's practice in one month would be equivalent to that of ordinary gods and demons who have practiced for several years. It is conceivable how much improvement the magic pills and medicines could bring to him.

Therefore, we must find a way to earn resources and then use them to exchange for magical pills and medicines. This is an urgent matter and is related to Lu Changjing's practice.

It would have been fine if he had not tried the magic elixir and magic medicine, but now that he has felt the tremendous benefits brought by the magic elixir and magic medicine, how could Lu Changjing tolerate that slow pace of practice anymore.

The mountain barbarians, the Sakura natives, the Universal Dynasty, the Great Jin Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty... You have to find a way to conquer them all. Only by controlling enough territories and lands can you obtain more resources and treasures to exchange for the desired elixirs and magic medicines.

The fire of ambition ignited in Lu Changjing's eyes, and his lazy mood, which had been a little slack after becoming a god and demon, became intense again.

After killing the troublemaker Yellow Sand Dragon King, the operations of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Ministry of War, the Demon Suppression Bureau... became smooth again.

Lu Changjing also invested a large amount of resources and wealth to start consolidating the Huangsha River embankment. This time he sent many court officials to supervise and even asked the Jinyiwei to supervise.

This is naturally done to prevent someone from enriching themselves and to spend every penny of gold and silver as effectively as possible.

Many of the resources used to build the Huangsha River Dike were provided personally by Emperor Lu Changjing. If any court official dared to embezzle the resources of the emperor, Lu Changjing would never let him go.

After several years of accumulation, a lot of resources and treasures had been saved in the royal secret treasury and the national treasury. Most of them were taken away by Lu Changjing, and a small part was left to Ning Zhongyu and Ning Tianbao.

The sharp drop in numbers made the two somewhat dissatisfied, but what was speechless was that they still hadn't come out of their retreat, which made Lu Changjing, who had prepared a series of plans, quite helpless.

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to lure out Ning Zhongyu and Ning Tianbao, but he didn't expect that both of them failed to fall into the trap. Lu Changjing has been considering whether to not give them any resources in the future to see if doing so can make them leave Yangxing Palace and Daning Xiaoling Mausoleum.

However, Lu Changjing was also worried that instead of luring out the two people, he would lure out other old monsters, who would discover the abnormality of the palace and eventually be surrounded and killed by the Zhoutian Xingdou formation.

So this matter still needs long-term consideration. Anyway, there is no need to be so anxious now. As long as Ning Zhongyu and Ning Tianbao dare to come out of the turtle shell, Lu Changjing can easily take them down.

Moreover, even if Ning Tianbao activated the Zhoutian Star Fighting Array now, with Lu Changjing's current strength and attainments in the Zhoutian Star Fighting Array, he could escape without worrying about his life.

He stopped thinking and focused on his practice. A few days later, another piece of good news came. Ning Tiancheng returned from his travels!
Ning Tiancheng is another great-uncle of Ning Tianbao, also an old monster at the grandmaster level. His Qi refining and body refining skills have both been promoted to the grandmaster level, and his spirit refining skills have also reached the high-level grandmaster level.

He was previously in charge of guarding the royal secret treasury, and his position was very important. He was also ranked among the top three in strength among the many old monsters of the Ning royal family, otherwise he would not be qualified to guard the important royal secret treasury.

However, as Ning Tianbao had completely emptied the royal secret treasury and even colluded with demons and monsters to plunder resources and treasures, he left Baiyujing in anger and traveled to surrounding countries.

According to Nie Sha, Ning Yucheng might have noticed the matter of the blood relative soul fruit. Although no definite evidence was found, Ning Tianbao did not dare to go too far again.

The reason why I left Baiyujing was also related to this incident.

However, to Lu Changjing, a grandmaster was nothing. The reason why he attached so much importance to Ning Yucheng was that this old monster from the Ning royal family had at least one divine weapon, and it might even be a mid-level divine weapon.

Lu Changjing has been traveling through time for so long, but he only has three divine artifacts: the Blue Sky Divine Ring, the Fu Shen Jade and the Jiuyue Heavy Sword. Needless to say, the Phoenix Feather Divine Ring had already been given to Rong Xiyao.

From this we can see how rare and important the artifact is. If Lu Changjing could get it, it would definitely greatly enhance his strength.

Even if Lu Changjing cannot use it, he can use it to exchange for various magical pills and medicines to speed up his own cultivation.

The value of a divine weapon is so great that it can be easily exchanged for dozens of bottles of divine pills and medicines, or even more, which is enough for Lu Changjing to use for a long time.

So as soon as he learned that Ning Yucheng had returned to Baiyujing, Lu Changjing couldn't wait to take Ning Yuzhi to find him.

The other party has not entered the royal secret library yet and is waiting outside, because the Zhoutian Star Array within the royal secret library has been closed by Ning Yuzhi. Without his permission, Ning Yucheng cannot enter at all.

Ning Yucheng's attainments in formations are only at the level of a top-level ordinary formation master. He can barely activate some of the formation functions in the royal secret library. He is far inferior to Ning Yuzhi.

When leaving Baiyujing, Ning Yucheng specifically asked Ning Yuzhi to help manage the royal secret library, the center of the formation, so Ning Yuzhi rearranged it to prevent others from entering easily.

Now that Ning Yucheng is back, Ning Yuzhi naturally needs to give him the corresponding authority so that he can manage the core of the formation again.

Compared with Ning Yuzhi, Ning Yucheng looked older, dusty, and a little cynical.

Ning Yucheng looked at Lu Changjing who was following Ning Yuzhi with curiosity. He thought he was one of Ning Yuzhi's juniors. When he was about to speak, he saw Ning Yuzhi launching a secret spiritual technique at him.

"Soul-shaking!"

……

Ning Yucheng was stunned: "You old thing, you hit me as soon as we met. I didn't sleep with your woman, what are you doing?"

The semi-artifact was activated in time to block Ning Yuzhi's attack, but at this moment, he saw the bright light in Lu Changjing's eyes beside Ning Yuzhi.
