This Is Exactly How Cultivation Works

Chapter 278: Speed is the essence of war, and so is practice

You can come as you please and leave as you please. What do you think Changming Prefecture is

Zhu Qilan disliked Lu Bei no matter what. When he was not around, he was curious whether he had died outside. When he was around, he was curious why he didn't die outside.

If I didn’t see it, I would be annoyed. If I saw it, I would be even more annoyed.

But no matter how much she hated it, she couldn't give up her cultivation. Didn't Lu Bei treat her as a tool for dual cultivation? Well, she would also treat Lu Bei as a tool, so that Lu Bei wouldn't really think that she cared about him.

Also, she suddenly figured it out. Changming Mansion will open tomorrow and continue to make money from fools!

"Come with me to the quiet room."

Zhu Qilan led the way with a dark face, and Lu Bei followed closely behind, reminding her, "Cousin, I recently got a good treasure. I can do double cultivation with half the effort, and one time is equivalent to ten times the result. But there is a disadvantage. It is too big a step, and it takes a lot of time to digest the gains from double cultivation. I see that you are busy with work recently, why don't you deal with it first?"

How do you know so much? You've been practicing dual cultivation with someone else outside without telling me

Zhu Qilan stopped and looked at Lu Bei in confusion: "What treasure is that? Take it out and let me see it."

"That's it."

Lu Bei took out the scroll and opened it with one finger, showing a pair of black and white fish repeating in a circle: "This is a double mysterious treasure map, divided into yin and yang, forming a world of its own. There is also the power of heaven and earth of the yin and yang way, which can help double cultivation with half the effort."

At this point, he paused and added, "When I got this treasure map, I thought of my cousin, so I rushed to find you without stopping."

Although he was lying, he was telling it from the bottom of his heart. He looked so sincere that Zhu Qilan immediately dispelled his doubts. The latter looked at the Shuangxuan Treasure Map with curiosity: "Is this thing really as powerful as you said?"

"Whether it's true or not, you can tell if you try it with me, cousin."

"Okay."

Zhu Qilan nodded and glanced at Lu Bei calmly: "You left in a hurry last time. To make up for it, you promised to accompany me to practice meditation this time. Now that you are here, stay for a few more days before leaving."

"Ah, this..."

Do you have some misunderstanding about next time

Lu Bei opened his mouth, ready to explain to Zhu Qilan, but seeing his unfriendly expression and cold eyes, he nodded decisively and said, "Yes, I said that Ningzhou Lu Bei is famous for keeping his word. I promise to satisfy my cousin this time, and I will do it even if I risk my life. Don't worry, I will never stop until you say stop."

There seems to be some ambiguity in this passage, but since we are practicing dual cultivation, the slight ambiguity is insignificant.

Zhu Qilan nodded with satisfaction and continued walking towards the quiet room.

Lu Bei followed behind her and said, "Cousin, I have no problem. I will be your slave tonight, but the question is... can you ignore your official duties?"

"I often retreat to suppress my inner demons. The camp has another operating system. If the delay is too long, Bai Yu will go to the camp to handle it on my behalf." Zhu Qilan replied indifferently.

She was the commander-in-chief of the three states, governing Yizhou, Linzhou, and Ningzhou. No one could tell her what to do in this land. She had the final say on when to leave early, when to be absent from work, and how many hours to slack off.

Whether she is busy with official business or not depends on her mood on that day. Unfortunately, she has been in a very bad state in recent days and needs to forget about her worries because of a lot of official business.

And her official duties, in short, are to kill people.

In other words, every time Lu Bei stood up Zhu Qilan, a demon cultivator would be slaughtered.

"It is a blessing for the country to have such an excellent commander like my cousin!"

Lu Bei sighed and raised his hand to stop Zhu Qilan: "Just practicing dual cultivation is too boring. Tonight, the moon is high in the sky and the stars are shining brightly. It is a beautiful night. Why not do something fun?"

"How do you want to stay?"

"Cousin, are you interested in sparring with me under the moon?"

"Can."

Zhu Qilan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

After advancing to the Refining Void Realm, she initially consolidated her current realm and was surprised to find that the road ahead was smooth and there was no usual bottleneck in cultivation. After several times of dual cultivation, her magic power improved by leaps and bounds, and it was so fast that she herself was a little unbelievable and once suspected that she had gone astray.

After confirming that her realm was stable and there were no evil thoughts interfering, she devoted herself to studying the privilege of a cultivator in the Void Refinement Realm - the power of heaven and earth.

Small world.

A cultivator advances to the realm of refining emptiness, where he can comprehend the power of heaven and earth, make up for his own losses, and go one step further on the basis of his innate transcendence, until he reaches the state of an immortal soul.

Zhu Qilan had observed Zhi Yuan's small world up close. With her qualifications, she has now successfully borrowed the power of heaven and earth to form her own small world.

She knew that she was no match for Lu Bei, and it would be difficult for her to gain the upper hand in a head-on confrontation. Her new little world was not yet perfect, and using Lu Bei was just the right way to fill in the gaps.

The two men went out of the city and into the mountains, choosing a deserted forest for a fight.

Lu Bei, who claimed to be a gentleman, let Zhu Qilan take the first move. After the latter opened his small world, clenched his fist with white light surrounding it, and then punched him.

boom!!

Dust was raised in the distance, and the small world shattered and disappeared on the spot.

Lu Bei dug Zhu Qilan out of the ruins, injected him with green vitality with Qinglong Yu, and after he was revived with full health, he started the second round.

Lu Bei broke his promise and stopped doing it after the fourth time, which was less than eight times in one night.

It's not that I'm being too sympathetic to women, but I give them too little and I'm too lazy to continue.

The experience gained from a kill is huge, but it is one-time and there is no second chance. Although a kill can provide sustainable resource utilization, the single benefit is not high, and if you kill the same monster repeatedly in a short period of time, the experience gained will decrease level by level until it is completely cleared.

The fourth time, Lu Bei achieved little success. Seeing that Zhu Qilan was still full of fighting spirit, he said that he felt sorry for him and couldn't bear to do it, so he raised his hands in surrender.

This statement made Zhu Qilan secretly happy but also a little disappointed. He agreed to fight with Lu Bei another day, and then...

He hurried back to Changming Mansion, took a bath, changed his clothes, and washed off the dust on his body.

"She is in the advanced stage of princess syndrome. There is no cure for her mysophobia."

Quiet room.

Lu Bei spread out the Shuangxuan treasure map, opened a separate room, divided it into Yin and Yang, and invited Zhu Qilan to join.

The Shuangxuan Treasure Map is a world of its own with a huge internal space. Without Lu Bei's instructions, Zhu Qilan had no idea that there were other women in the formation, and more than one.

She didn't think much about it. She sat cross-legged, calmed her breath and concentrated her mind to open her soul to Lu Bei. As their minds merged, Lu Bei, based on his previous experience of dual cultivation, injected the precious innate Qi into Zhu Qilan's body.

The white light surged, Zhu Qilan's delicate body shook, a hazy white tiger figure appeared, a golden light lit up between the eyebrows, and vaguely a square seal could be seen.

After a long time, Lu Bei woke up first. He looked at Zhu Qilan in surprise, thinking that she was worthy of being a princess. With a different status, she had more experience than others from dual cultivation.

According to Lu Bei's original idea, Zhu Qilan had the fate of the White Tiger, and he got the opportunity from the secret book to study the Western Jade Emperor Sutra. He got the skill 'White Tiger Evil', and the combination of the two could save a lot of experience for the upgrade of the White Tiger Evil.

This was how dual cultivation was done before.

I never expected that after acquiring the skill of 'Yinglong Ju', I was able to gather all five elements and five images. The experience gained from dual cultivation was no longer limited to 'White Tiger Evil', but was even shared by all, and I could gain from the fusion skills of 'Four Spirits of Heaven'.

"As expected of you, the woman who took away Lu's first dual cultivation is different."

Lu Bei exclaimed in admiration, guessing that the Western Jade Emperor Dao Sutra must be deeply connected to the other four Dao Sutras. Otherwise, pie would not fall from the sky. He found a shortcut to save a lot of experience in one go.

The dual cultivation stopped there. Zhu Qilan was trying to digest his insights and couldn't stop for a while.

Lu Bei pushed the door open and walked out. After thinking for a while, he came to Bai Jin's room next door. Seeing that he was as silent and motionless as a jade statue, he knew that he would not end his retreat for the time being. He raised his hand and injected the innate Qi as a help.

Then he pushed open She Xuan's door again.

This is how cultivating immortality works!

In the backyard of Changming Mansion, Lu Bei was struggling with the experience of 295 million. He felt uncomfortable all over and his obsessive-compulsive disorder almost drove him to death.

For these five million experiences, big brother Fox Three contributed a little bit, and the rest came from Zhu Qilan. If he wants to collect the full five million, he will probably have to live in Changming Mansion for a while.

"With this time, all the tasks subcontracted to players are profitable."

Lu Bei shook his head. As loyal and patriotic as he was, rubbing the princess four times in one night was already the limit. His patriotic heart would not allow him to do it twice more.

Suddenly, he suddenly thought of something, stood up and flew away from Changming Prefecture, and landed on a random roof on the street of Changming County.

He took out the Thousand Mile Talisman hidden in the space ring, injected mana into it, and called Jing Ji, the elder of the Tianjian Sect.

After three consecutive times, Jing Ji finally got through.

"Nephew Lu, what's the matter?"

"I'm in Yuezhou. When will you give me the list?"

"So urgent?" Jing Ji asked in surprise.

"Speed is of the essence in war, and the same is true for cultivation. I can achieve my current level of cultivation entirely through hard work and sweat, and I dare not slack off for even a moment."

Lu Bei replied solemnly, and continued, "Besides, it has been ten hours since we parted ways. Ten full hours is not a short time. I think Elder Jing has already prepared the list."

"… "

"Elder Jing, please say something!"

"Nephew Lu is a little impatient. You just got out of Lingxiao Sword Sect, so you should practice for a while. How about this, give me three days. After three days, I will definitely hand over the list to you."

Jing Ji spoke very quickly, and before Lu Bei could open his mouth, he said, "Don't complain about my slowness. In addition to notifying the sword cultivators in Yizhou to prepare, you have caused trouble in Lingxiao Sword Sect, and Lin Buyan will definitely not let it go. How to protect you will require Jing's mediation, and all this will take time."

Jing Ji’s words made sense, so Lu Bei ended the call after he urged him, and they agreed to contact each other again in three days.

Over at the Tianjian Sect, Jing Ji looked at the Qianli Talisman in his hand, took out the bronze mirror magic weapon while it was still hot, chanted the incantation, and used his chaotic eyes to explore Lu Bei's location.

In the sight, the street under the moonlight is hazy. As the vision moves away, the plaques of the houses are revealed, and three large characters are prominently visible.

Qunxiangyuan.

Jing Ji: “…”

He still dares to claim that he and his senior sister are in love. What a shameless guy. Sooner or later, he will die in the hands of a woman...

Thinking of this, Jing Ji's eyes lit up. Lu Bei had amazing talent and he would become a big shot in the future. After overthrowing Lin Buyan, he already had a plan on how to control this man.

The easiest way to deal with a pervert is to use the beauty trap.
