Chapter 42: Dual-Subject Master
The Imperial Qi in the body is still almost full, so I can start forging the second spiritual vein.

Lu Changjing did not waste any time and immediately began to forge the second spiritual vein.

The forging of spiritual veins starts from the Dantian, then follows a fixed order, circling around various parts of the body, and finally returns to the Dantian.

Start from Dantian, pass through the five internal organs, go to the root of the human body, and land on the left foot...

The second spiritual vein was being forged at a speed visible to the naked eye. During this process, Lu Changjing could clearly feel the improvement in his cultivation level, and his physical and mental strength also gained a considerable increase.

During this period, he took another elixir, and by the time it was approaching midnight, one third of the second spiritual vein had been cast.

Lu Changjing did not continue. After midnight, his physical condition increased a little again.

As his physical fitness improved, his cultivation foundation, which had originally been a bit fragile, also became more stable.

There were also some minor scars caused by the violent impact, which were also completely recovered without any damage at all.

The realm of cultivation has completely stabilized, and the next thing to do is to adapt. Lu Changjing plans to rest for a while before starting to adapt to the rapid increase in cultivation.

Although the second spiritual vein has not yet been fully forged, Lu Changjing is already qualified to be called a second-level master.

After spending several days, Lu Changjing successfully forged a second spiritual vein, but it would take some time to fully adapt to it, so he was not in a hurry to break through to the next level.

Although his Qi Refining skills improved rapidly, they were also consumed rapidly, and he used up dozens of low-grade spirit stones and several elixirs.

The only consolation is that it saves more than ten years of training time. For an ordinary master to forge a spiritual vein, it would be very difficult without ten years, or even longer.

During these few days, several concubines learned about Lu Changjing's sale of his property and came to comfort him, and some also gave him resources and treasures.

However, Lu Changjing confiscated most of them. The reason was that some concubines' mouths were not so reliable.

Even if Lu Changjing reminded them, they might "accidentally" leak it out. For safety reasons, it is better not to collect it.

Otherwise, if Cao Wen Zheng knew about it, at best he would take away these resources and treasures, at worst he would give him a severe beating.

While adapting to the Qi Refining cultivation, Lu Changjing spent more time on body training. A drop of silver dragon blood falling into his stomach could at least save him several months of practice.

I used to take only one or two drops a day, but now I take at least three or four drops a day.

This is a treasure that is of great benefit to a grandmaster. Lu Changjing absorbed it so crazily, one can imagine how fast his physical training has improved.

In just a few days, his body refining skills had reached the pinnacle of a first-level master, and he could break through the bottleneck.

Before breaking through the barrier, Lu Changjing took two drops of silver dragon blood. Feeling the surging power of the spiritual blood, he began to break through.

"Boom boom boom..."

Compared to the Qi Refining Breakthrough, the Body Refining Breakthrough is much louder, as if there is a roaring flood inside the body, constantly bombarding the bottleneck dam.

For a warrior, every challenge is a crisis, but every challenge is also the culmination of practice.

Before breaking through a barrier, most warriors will make a lot of preparations and also master the breakthrough techniques of the martial arts they have learned until they are completely familiar with them.

It may seem like an ordinary shock, but the knowledge and skills contained in it are enough to make a college student in the previous life collapse.

To be frank, the methods and techniques that a first-level body refinement master needs to use when he is trying to reach the second level can be written into a thick book. The strength and methods required for each impact on the bottleneck dam, the conditions of the surrounding parts every time the bottleneck dam is impacted, the feedback of the bottleneck dam every time the bottleneck dam is impacted... The complexity of the content is enough to dazzle ordinary people.

Even Lu Changjing, who possessed a talent that was one in a thousand, felt a headache when he saw these materials and notes, let alone those warriors with average talent.

No wonder the population of the Daning Dynasty exceeds one billion, but the number of grandmasters is less than a thousand.

"Boom..."

At a certain moment, accompanied by a roar, the bottleneck dam finally collapsed, and the five elements of spiritual blood became more powerful and pure at a speed visible to the naked eye, increasing by several percent before it stopped.

Immediately, the five elements of spiritual blood began to flow to various parts of the body, tempering and improving these parts.

Strength began to increase dramatically, defense began to increase dramatically, speed began to increase dramatically... When everything settled down, Lu Changjing's body refining skills also entered the second-level master level.

Such warriors who have reached the master level in both Qi training and body training are also called dual masters.

If one can improve his spiritual cultivation to the Grandmaster level, and his essence, energy and spirit are not far behind, he will be called a three-subject Grandmaster, or an all-subject Grandmaster.

At this moment, Lu Changjing can be called a dual-subject master, and his combat power far exceeds that of ordinary masters.

Once he has adapted to his explosive strength, and has improved his Imperial Sword Skills and Imperial Dragon Steps, he will basically be able to dominate the low-level Grandmasters, and can even compete with mid-level Grandmasters.

Cao Wenzhen is only a first-level master in body training, and Lu Changjing has surpassed him in this respect.

Once he reaches a few more levels, he might be able to compete with Cao Wenzhen.

With a slight smile, life becomes more and more promising.

After midnight, after consolidating his foundation and increasing his strength, Lu Changjing began to rest.

The next morning, before he had practiced for long, let alone read a few memorials, he saw Cao Wen Zheng walking in, looking a little tired.

"The disaster relief work in Chengyu County has been handled. Our family has also sold some of our properties and prepared some resources and money to help you clean up your mess."

"Don't waste His Majesty's resources and money anymore. Otherwise, even if we don't want you to die, we won't let you go after His Majesty comes out of confinement."

"But so many concubines have come during this period, and you didn't take anything away?"

……

Cao Wen Zheng was still somewhat unwilling and couldn't help but ask.

Lu Changjing smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Didn't Lord Cao arrange people to guard outside? Lord Cao should know better whether I accepted these things or not."

"Besides, this imperial study is only this big, and Lord Cao knows this place better than I do. If I had hidden something, Lord Cao would have found it long ago."

"That's true." Cao Wenzheng thought for a moment and said, "What a pity. If we could accept some of them, we would have an easier time later. Many of the ladies are wealthy, especially the Imperial Noble Consort, Consort Duan, and Consort Zhen."

Seeing the grandmaster Cao Wenzhen almost drooling, Lu Changjing thought to himself that it was no wonder that many people said that eunuchs were greedy for money. Now it seems to be true.
