Chapter 15 One in a Million, Entering the Momentum
Chapter 15 One in a Million, Entering the Momentum
In the past two weeks, Lu Yuan led his men out of the city three times.
Both attacks were against bandits. Since there were only a dozen or so of them, they did not seek out the Northern Barbarians. Their purpose in these two attacks was to hone their cultivation and improve their realm.
Once my strength breaks through, I should be able to deal with the Northern Barbarians.
There were also gains. He personally killed twenty-one bandits and exchanged them for more than twenty taels of silver at the Hall of Merit. He also plundered horses, although the bandits' horses were not as good as the northern barbarian warhorses.
However, in the Hall of Merit, a horse can be exchanged for ten taels of silver.
This alone earned him over two hundred taels.
Another aspect is improving one's own abilities.
He won all three battles with superior numbers, which greatly increased his proficiency.
When the system panel was opened, even though Lu Yuan was prepared, he couldn't help but smile.
Name: Lu Yuan
Age: 16
[Technique: Eight Forms of Breaking the Edge (29723/30000 Perfected)]
【Tiger-Taming Stance Body Tempering (9242/10000 Mastery)】
【Golden Bell Cover (7817/10000 Great Completion)】
【The Wolf-Chasing Archery Technique (3461/10000 Mastery)】
["Front Arrow Formation" (8413/10000 (Dacheng)]
That's right, Lu Yuan's body tempering has reached its peak. If it were an ordinary person, they would naturally break through, but he has not yet reached his limit.
However, no one dared to underestimate their fighting strength.
Now, I can easily defeat someone at the Bone Forging Realm.
The improvements to "Golden Bell Cover" are also very encouraging.
As for the "Spearhead Formation," it is now also fully mastered. It is no exaggeration to say that if Lu Yuan were to go into battle now, he would launch a charge with the military formation.
The combat power of the soldiers under your command will increase by 50%.
Don't underestimate these 50%; they can play a crucial role in the battle.
"I'll be able to break through the 'Eight Forms of Breaking the Edge' soon. If I practice a little more today, I should be close enough," Lu Yuan thought to himself.
He picked up his long sword, went outside, and began to swing it.
Now his swordsmanship is becoming more and more refined. When he dances in the sun, it is like a bolt of lightning, so that people can only see the shadow of the sword, but not the person.
The scale of the attack was extremely alarming.
At that very moment, inside the Captain's residence, Captain Zhou Hongling was having dinner with her elders who had come from her family.
The table was laden with delicacies.
Zhou Ming, the third master of the Zhou family, was a foodie. While eating, he looked at his niece and said, "Recently, the imperial court and the Western Rong have reached a reconciliation."
The third princess was sent away for a political marriage, finally allowing her to live a few more peaceful days.
"Isn't His Majesty most fond of the Third Princess?" Zhou Hongling paused with her chopsticks.
"There's no other way. We're constantly at odds with the northern barbarians and at war with the western Rong. How can we stand it? Even if His Majesty loves his daughter the most, he has to consider the court's interests," Zhou Ming said calmly after taking a sip of wine.
After a moment of silence, Zhou Hongling said, "To exchange temporary peace for a marriage alliance is a disgrace to the imperial court and to our military family."
"Are you out of your mind, girl? Don't say things like that again. If someone hears you, the whole family will be in trouble." Zhou Ming's expression changed, and he glared at his niece.
Zhou Hongling didn't take it seriously, then looked up and said, "Third Uncle, I've recently discovered a promising talent. Why don't you become his mentor?"
As he spoke, he had someone send over Lu Yuan's information.
Zhou Ming glanced at it before speaking.
"I can't, you know that. I just took Yunmo as my disciple, and I can't take care of anyone else."
Yunmo, a centurion in the Tiger Hill Fortress.
Although his official rank was not high, he was famous in several nearby fortified cities. His cultivation level was at the Refining Muscle Realm, and he was born with divine strength. He broke through each realm only after almost reaching the Great Completion Realm.
The tendon-strengthening technique is expected to achieve a perfect breakthrough.
Moreover, his military formation had reached its peak, making him a prominent figure in this border region.
"Stop making excuses. It's because you've had Yunmo that you look down on everyone else and are determined to cultivate a famous general. But this Lu Yuan isn't bad either. You really won't take him?"
"We won't accept him anymore. You know that Uncle San's biggest wish is to cultivate a famous general. With one more disciple, we have to devote more attention. This Lu Yuan, anyway, has already become a disciple of our Zhou family."
"Whether you worship a teacher or not is the same, it's up to you." Zhou Ming said, waving his hands repeatedly as he drank.
Zhou Hongling could only express her helplessness in the face of this.
She only remembered that Lu Yuan hadn't become an apprentice after seeing Zhou Ming, so she tried asking him.
If it doesn't work out, so be it; it's already on the list anyway.
At this point, a mere squad leader couldn't garner her much attention.
If he performs exceptionally well in the future, he can simply marry a concubine's daughter from the Zhou family. This is a common tactic used by the Zhou family to win him over.
At this moment, Lu Yuan was unaware of all this; he was only focused on wielding the long sword in his hand.
"Buzz!"
After a buzzing sound was heard.
Data popped up in my mind.
[Has the "Eight Forms of Breaking the Edge" (30134/30000 Perfection) technique been mastered?]
"breakthrough."
Then, Lu Yuan felt a surge of insights into swordsmanship surfacing in his mind, and the strength in his arms began to increase.
It seems he had practiced swordsmanship for decades and suddenly had an epiphany.
Layers of calluses appeared on my palms.
The sword in his hand felt lighter, and he could swing it faster.
Moreover, they also came to understand many changes.
[Technique: "Eight Forms of Breaking the Edge" (134/50000 Perfection) - Entering Posture]
This is a completely new realm, a martial arts realm that all martial artists dream of, yet is difficult to reach.
Once you reach the Body Tempering Realm, you've developed your own unique sword style; such individuals are one in a million.
Because many people only come into contact with this when they are refining their bodies, and only when they break through to the True Essence Realm can they comprehend their own power.
But now, Lu Yuan has already done it.
Anyone who sees this would be greatly surprised.
"brush!"
As the blade flashed, Lu Yuan's aura suddenly changed, a gust of wind rippled out, adding a touch of intimidation.
After mastering the sword technique, his combat power more than doubled.
If before he could only fight Duan Gu head-on, now he could easily kill him.
"If the Golden Bell Cover is perfected, the Tiger Subduing Stake will also be enhanced, allowing it to reach perfection as soon as possible. At that time, combat power will increase. Even if it cannot defeat the Tendon Refining Technique, it should not be a big problem to leave calmly with the help of the military formation."
As Lu Yuan thought to himself, he put on his clothes and prepared to go out. The armory had all kinds of body-refining medicines. In the past, he didn't have enough silver to buy them, but now he had more than three hundred taels of silver on him.
We could go and see if there are any suitable ones.
He's the kind of person who acts on his words; after getting dressed, he headed outside.
I just locked the gate.
Then Xiao Hua from next door came out with a smile: "Brother Yuan, my mom said she's inviting you to lunch, you have to come!"
"Okay, I'll definitely be back before noon," Lu Yuan replied.
Then they headed towards the city defense headquarters.
The armory is open year-round; items inside can be exchanged for merit points or silver.
Lu Yuan is not enough in the former case.
Therefore, it can only be purchased with cash.
After arriving at the armory.
Looking at the various medicines lined up inside, his gaze finally fell on a jar.
"The essence blood of the Wilderness Tiger has a remarkable effect on tempering the body and is most suitable for assisting in external martial arts cultivation." Lu Yuan looked at the description above.
After looking at the price of three hundred taels.
I gritted my teeth and bought a can.
It's enough for him to use three times.
That's enough to make a breakthrough.
Once our strength is increased this time, we will go out of the city again and specifically target the Northern Barbarian cavalry, and we will definitely make up for all the losses.
