C28 Third stage of qi refinement
Tong Lao and his wife, the Tang San couple, heard the news and came over.
"Little brother, can you let me take a look at this piece of phlox?" Tong Lao's eyes were staring straight at Fu Luoshen in Lu Zheng's hand, radiating heat. At this moment, other than Fu Luoshen, there was nothing else in his eyes.
"Of course you can!" Lu Zheng said in a very magnanimous manner. Not waiting for him to deliver it, the Tong Lao impatiently snatched away Fu Lushou, and after that, unceasingly made strange and surprised sounds from his mouth.
"A priceless treasure!" "It's a once in a hundred years encounter!"
Seeing this scene, Eldest Brother Wang's face turned even uglier.
"Eldest Brother Wang, is this Flourishing Mushroom more expensive or is your Violet Roland more expensive?" Lu Xiaotian who only knew a little about jade levels asked.
"Humph!"
Eldest Brother Wang actually thought that Lu Xiaotian was mocking him on purpose and couldn't help but let out a cold snort, but didn't say anything.
Tong Lao's voice rang: "There's no way to compare! There was no way to compare! The value of this piece of phlox is incalculable! "
"Haha, then that means we've won!" Lu Xiaotian was ecstatic, he purposely looked at Eldest Brother Wang while he spoke.
Tang San, who had lost ten million along with Eldest Brother Wang, did not look too good. The Tang family was a military family and their family was very strict with their education, so this ten million was all he had accumulated over the years. Now that he had lost, he could not help but feel his heart ache.
"What's your name, little brother?" Tong Lao returned Fu Lu Shou back to Lu Zheng and asked with a reluctant expression.
"Lu Zheng!"
"Hello, little brother Lu. I am Tong Yuanming. Can I help you discuss if you can sell me this piece of Fu Lusheng? You can rest assured that the price will definitely satisfy you. "
I'm sorry, Mr. Tong Lao, I'm not selling it! Lu Zheng shook his head. He bought the ore to cultivate with. Although the money was good, it was nothing compared to cultivation.
Lu Zheng did not even return the price, which showed that he was determined not to sell. Suddenly, his heart stirred: "Little Brother Lu, can you not refuse?
Lu Xiaotian shouted unhappily from the side, "I say, what's going on with you, old fellow? Aren't you being too thick-skinned? Why should we lend it to you? "
"I can pay!"
At the same time, he was also a master sculptor, and anyone who had experience with stone gambling would know his name. If it was anyone else, who knew his name, they would definitely not reject him, but unfortunately, it was a retard like Lu Xiaotian, so he seemed helpless.
Lu Zheng's voice sounded. "Old man, I'm sorry, I have great use for this piece of Flourishing Mushroom. Furthermore, I'm the only one leaving Yanjing in the next few days, so I can't lend it to you!"
Hearing this, although Tong Lao was disappointed, he did not continue to pester her.
After that, Lu Xiaotian commanded the workers in the stone workshop to bring the ores they had bought to the carriage, and sent them to the garage in his apartment.
After locking up the garage, the two of them ran to the next gambling den.
At nine in the evening, when the delivery men moved the last batch of ores into the garage, Lu Zheng and Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but smile at each other.
"Is Ah Zheng trying to open the stone now?" Lu Xiaotian asked excitedly.
"Extract it tomorrow." Lu Zheng replied. He had his own tests to test, and although he could comprehend thirty-five primeval stones easily today, he had actually consumed a lot of primeval essence.
Currently, there were more than 130 pieces of ore piled up in the garage. Even if he exhausted all of his primeval essence, he would still be able to unravel them. He was only one step away from the 3rd level of Qi Refining.
"Alright then!" Lu Xiaotian nodded his head, he really wanted to take out the ore that he spent ninety million on, but since Lu Zheng had said so, there was no need to force it, so he waved his hands and said:
"Ah Zheng, let's go. It's time to reward your belly."
Hearing Lu Xiaotian's words, Lu Zheng also felt hungry.
After tossing and turning for the better part of the day, Lu Xiaotian returned home from dinner. After giving a few instructions, he went back to his room to sleep.
Lu Xiaotian's apartment was different from what he expected, it was very tidy. After Lu Zheng washed up, he entered another room.
Soon, he sat cross-legged on the bed and held the King's Green, which had lost most of its vitality, in his hands. Then, he started to circulate his cultivation technique.
After two cycles, Lu Zheng's dantian had already become full, and his primeval essence had reached a thousand drops. It could be said that he had already half a foot in the 3rd level of the Refinement Realm.
Next, he only needed to condense a thousand drops of true essence into a sea of origin energy. Then, he would be able to truly advance to the third level of Qi Refining.
After slightly adjusting his body, Lu Zheng carefully controlled the true essence in his dantian to near and compress each other.
Normally, Lu Zheng would be more satisfied when using primeval essence, but now that they were nearing each other and pressing against each other, Lu Zheng felt a faint sense of rejection.
When the true essence that filled his dantian shrank to half, Lu Zheng felt the difficulty, because the repulsiveness was getting stronger and stronger.
Transforming the scattered true essence into an origin sea was not as simple as just squeezing it together. Rather, it was a qualitative change, just like turning sand into diamonds.
Although it was strenuous, Lu Zheng did not have the intention to give up. He had a tough personality, if not he would not have risked his life to grind the restrictions outside the Heavenly Bead with his blood for ten years.
When his true essence was compressed to only a third of its original size, Lu Zheng felt that he was almost unable to control his true essence.
According to the records of the 'Art of Transforming the Five Elements', if one failed the first time, then the second time would double the difficulty.
In fact, Lu Zheng did not know that because his cultivation speed was much faster than ordinary cultivators, he lacked time to temper his True Essence and did not have enough control over it. This made it difficult for him to condense the True Essence into an Essence Sea.
"I can't give up!" His forehead was covered in sweat, but his eyes were filled with determination.
"Continue squeezing!"
Lu Zheng clenched his teeth, and continued to control his True Origin to compress and compress.
An hour later, his zhenqi had been compressed to its original size of a quarter of a meter, giving him the initial shape of the primeval sea.
Lu Zheng's entire body was drenched in sweat, at the same time, he was extremely exhausted, as though he was about to faint.
"En!"
He bit his tongue, feeling energized.
As time slowly passed, Lu Zheng found it harder and harder to continue, especially as the compressed ball of true essence was close to the edge of exploding.
"Should I give up?"
Lu Zheng was not satisfied.
"No, definitely not!" He shouted loudly in his heart, recklessly urging his mind to frantically compress his true essence.
Boom!
In the moment that his mind's power acted on the mass of true essence, a massive recoil struck his mind. Immediately, his mind was no longer able to restrain his true essence, causing his compressed true essence to suddenly explode.
"I still failed!"
Lu Zheng felt an indescribable sense of defeat. Even if he didn't want to give up, he was powerless to save himself. As soon as he relaxed, a huge wave of tiredness hit him.
However, at this time, a cool gas suddenly surged out of his sea of consciousness. The cool gas instantly entered his mind, causing his incomparably tired mind to instantly recover to its exuberant state.
"This is?"
Lu Zheng who was in despair could not help but feel extremely joyful upon sensing the recovery of his consciousness, and did not bother to investigate what the cool air was. Where did it come from?
His consciousness formed a large net in his dantian, once again gathering and compressing the true essence that had yet to completely disperse.
After having experienced this once, coupled with the fact that his mind had become much stronger, it was much easier to compress his true essence.
In less than ten minutes, he had compressed his true essence to a fifth of its original size. Moreover, he could feel that the connection between his true essence and his true essence had become much stronger.
Continue compression.
After a few more hours had passed, the True Essence in Lu Zheng's dantian had already been compressed to a tenth of its original size. A thousand drops of True Essence had already completely fused together, appearing extremely rich.
"My Essence Sea is complete. I've reached the third level of Qi Refining!"
Lu Zheng could not help but feel a large amount of joy from the bottom of his heart. He tried to release his mind, and the True Essence that had formed his Essence did not dissipate, but instead gave off a feeling of being completely natural.
After carefully sensing and comprehending, Lu Zheng discovered that the Quintessential Essence that formed his primeval sea had undergone a qualitative change. If the Quintessential Essence that did not form his primeval sea was a ball of cotton, then the one that formed his primeval sea was a piece of pig iron that was highly condensed.
The quantity had not changed, but the quality was different.
Suddenly, a deep tiredness hit him. Lu Zheng did not persist any further, his body slanted and he fell asleep on the bed.
On the morning of the second day, a ray of sunlight shone onto Lu Zheng's handsome face. He slowly opened his eyes and subconsciously, his mind entered his dantian.
There was a washroom in the room. Last night, when he was gathering his Essence Sea, his entire body was drenched in sweat. Last night, he was too tired to wash himself and fell asleep. Now, he felt sticky and uncomfortable.
As he was washing himself, Lu Zheng unconsciously thought back to last night's scene. Where did that cool breath come from where he had lost control of his primeval essence?
After pondering for a while, he once again thought that this cool air was related to the kaleidae fructus.
"Mom, I, kaleidae fructus's Taoist priest, will definitely not let you down!" Lu Zheng muttered, but his eyes flashed with a determined light.
After eating breakfast, Lu Zheng and Lu Xiaotian went back to the garage.
Lu Zheng casually walked in front of a rock and stuck his palm on it. Spitting out his true essence, the basin-sized rock rustled and turned into a pile of powder. In the middle of the powder lay an almost transparent jade.
If anyone who knew Emerald was present, they would definitely exclaim at the glass.
After spending two hours, Lu Zheng undid all of the ores and obtained more than a hundred different quality jade pieces. After Lu Zheng gave a rough estimate on the quality of the jade pieces, he made a price.
When Lu Xiaotian heard the price, his eyes instantly opened wide and his breathing became hurried. Although he was only at 10%, 10% was still a sky-high price that could not be ignored.
"Ah Zheng, did you calculate wrongly?" Lu Xiaotian swallowed his saliva.
"Hmm, this is only a rough estimate. The real price should be one or two hundred million!" Lu Zheng said in a serious tone.
"Haha, I'm rich!" Your father has become a billionaire! " Receiving Lu Zheng's assurance, Lu Xiaotian could no longer suppress the joy in his heart and laughed loudly.
In the Tang Clan's courtyard.
After looking through the information sent from the special channels, Tang San's expression kept changing, and the expression in his eyes became even more complicated. He did not expect that the young man he saw in the stone shop today was his aunt's son.
