A lot of heat radiated from Lu Sheng's body.
The skin of his whole body turned red quickly, and a large amount of liquid internal energy began to circulate at high speed in the Yin Crane Net in his body. It is several points faster than before, and as time goes by, this speed is still accelerating.
"It's a matter of success or failure."
Lu Sheng knew that there were not many medicines that could have such an effect on him. With the frequency of use and the continuous strengthening of the body, the golden balm has already been reduced to a pure nourishing skin care product.
As with any medicine, it is most effective when taken the first time.
He suppressed the burning sensation in his body, stuffed all the flesh and blood in his hand into his mouth, and swallowed it whole.
Hiss... .
Massive amounts of internal energy erupted from the pores of his skin, the cold Yin-Yang Jade Crane Vase Qi, and the fiery Chiji Nine Sharks Gong inner Qi, the two slowly diffused in the quiet room, forming a blood net, All voids of the quiet room are covered.
Lu Sheng felt that as soon as the flesh and blood entered his throat, it was like a ball of fire, burning straight from the mouth to the stomach, and large waves of hot air crazily spread from the stomach to all parts of the body.
The sense of transformation in the body is accelerating little by little. And the hot air from the four-legged dragon's flesh and blood seems to be continuously digested into internal energy, which is replenished into the huge internal energy circulation.
The inner air is getting thicker and thicker.
The density in the quiet room is also increasing. The two kinds of inner air with different properties mixed and collided with each other, and gradually, as time passed, a subtle light color began to appear.
The inner qi of Chiji Jiusha Gong is a kind of light red.
The Yin Yang Jade Crane Aquarium Qi is light blue.
Pfft, as if something exploded.
Lu Sheng suddenly felt a burst of cold all over his body, and not long after, he immediately felt a burst of hot body.
So hot and cold, fine gray-black impurities gradually seeped out from the surface of his skin.
Some faint yellow mucus was also expelled from his body surface.
"It's started..." With a twitch in his heart, he slowly closed his eyes, relaxed his body and mind, and let everything be handed over to that pure sense of transformation.
Lu Sheng didn't know how long this trip would last, but he knew that this retreat would be an opportunity for him to truly step into a new level since he practiced martial arts.
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ..
In a blink of an eye, the Jiuhua Festival arrives.
After a year of famine in the Northland, they managed to barely survive the period of suffering. Some small country gentry, landlords, manor owners, and businessmen who persisted have also begun to become active again. Taking advantage of the Jiuhua Festival to hold some promotional activities and reopen the store.
Because of Lu Sheng's suppression, ghost disturbances have disappeared in most areas of the Northland, and when they occasionally appear, experts will immediately go to solve them.
The long-lost peace has brought about the reactivation of farmers, fishermen and hunters. Hunters hunt ferocious and dangerous animals and maintain the safety of surrounding forests in disguise.
The farmers resumed plowing and farming, and the fishermen resumed fishing, which also temporarily curbed the further development of the famine.
Because the targets of the Red Square Master are all masters and have nothing to do with ordinary people, so the influence on the people is not great. In addition, she has recently gone hunting in other regions, and the major cities have gradually returned to calm.
The members of the Red Whale Gang spontaneously held the Jiuhua Festival, and the elders and internal affairs envoys did not stop them. Instead, they took the opportunity to participate and have fun.
Except for the Red Whale, all other sub-rudders responded one after another, hanging pink garlands of nine flowers on both sides of the gate.
Teachers from the academy were also invited to teach and write festival couplets.
These trivial matters have always been discussed and decided by Yu Lianzi and other internal affairs envoys. But this time, because it was the first big festival after the famine, there were voices from all over the gang, hoping that Lu Sheng would show up to preside over the celebration ceremony.
Under the crowd's will, Yu Lianzi had no choice but to go to the Red Whale and try to notify Lu Sheng.
"The master is still retreating?" Yu Lianzi stood in the courtyard outside the quiet room, and when she heard the guard's answer, she showed a look of helplessness.
"Yes, so far, it has been closed for several days." Konoe replied respectfully.
"Can't you come forward to host such a grand festival?" Yu Lianzi felt a little regretful.
"Um... the guild master has ordered that no one should disturb you during the retreat." Jin Wei replied cautiously.
"Is it jade lotus seeds?" Suddenly a clear dull voice came from the quiet room.
"Yes." Yu Lianzi lifted her spirits and quickly bowed her head respectfully.
"You can preside over the celebration, you don't need to ask me. I can't come to host for the time being." Lu Sheng said calmly.
Yu Lianzi quickly bowed her head in response.
"Then, Yu Lianzi will leave." He turned around and wanted to leave.
"Wait!" Lu Sheng stopped him, "Is today the Jiuhua Festival?"
The question was inexplicable, but Yu Lianzi answered honestly.
"yes."
"Jiuhua flowers bloom, is today?" Lu Sheng asked again.
"To be precise, it is tomorrow. Generally speaking, Jiuhua flowers bloom, which refers to the second day of Jiuhua Festival. Tomorrow is the time when the flowers are completely blooming." Jade Lotus Zi replied quickly.
Lu Sheng was silent for a while.
"Okay, I see, you go down."
With doubts in her heart, Yu Lianzi slowly retreated.
In the quiet room, Lu Sheng was sitting cross-legged on the futon. The room was filled with thick smoke. The gray-white smoke condensed and did not disperse, covering the entire quiet room, and also covering his body at this time.
"Jiuhua Festival... is the time when people from Xinyouhui plan to do something." He has been in seclusion for several days, and the news from the outside world has been passed on to him by Umbrella Girl and Gang Zhongwei.
Stretching out his hand, Lu Sheng gently stroked a black letter on the ground in front of him.
He already knew the content of the letter, it was sent by the mysterious Xinyouhui, it was sent to the chief study of the Red Whale, and after being discovered by the guards, it was sent to the quiet room.
He also read the content inside, and there was only one place and one time. It just so happens that this time is tomorrow.
Lu Sheng knew what they meant. This is a letter that requires his cooperation. The place and time are the notices to intercept and kill Hongfangzhu.
These days, according to the news from the Umbrella Girl, Master Hongfang and her went all the way east, and then followed the river on the ice field down the river, far away from Yanshan City, and approached the warmer Central Plains.
However, this distance, for a powerhouse of their level, is only a few hours' walk.
"So unscrupulous, it seems that tomorrow is really going to be a big battle." He looks the same as usual, but compared with before, he is a little more gloomy, a little more calm, with a concealed breath, and even a little bit of martial arts training. All traces are hidden. It looks like an ordinary young master recovering from a serious illness.
"Then, it's time for me to start my arrangement... There are still about forty units of Yin Qi."
He paused.
"Dark blue."
Thinking silently in his heart, a light blue square slowly emerged, floating in front of his eyes.
"Jiyang Dao... Maybe it can be deduced to a layer..."
The huge ray of sky, like an erect human eye, is half open and half closed. The stone walls on both sides, which are hundreds of meters high, are cold and steep.
The white skylight projected down, making the stone walls appear more gray and rough.
Below the stone wall, a ribbon-like clear river passes through a line of sky-mountain cliffs broadly and calmly.
The surface of the river is not microwaved, and the light green is like a mirror. Winding and meandering stretches from afar, flowing to unknown distant plains.
At this time, a small canopy boat floated slowly on the river, and the two people on the boat stood and sat one at a time. It was two women.
The standing woman has short white hair, well-proportioned and fierce muscles, and slender and powerful limbs, like a leopard ready to hunt at any time, containing extremely strong explosive power.
The sitting woman is gentle and gorgeous, holding a vermilion paper umbrella in her hand and turning it gently. A pair of bare feet are still in the river water, shaking and stirring white water splashes.
call... .
A gentle breeze blew, and the trees on both sides of the bank shook. The fine petals of Jiuhua were lifted by the wind and fell obliquely to the river, like a pink drizzle.
"Sister... I really want to... always be like this..." Umbrella Girl reached out to catch a floating petal. A warm smile appeared on his face.
"If you like it, I'll let people plant Jiuhua flowers all around the Red Square." The owner of the Red Square also replied gently. "It's just a day like this, I don't know if I can..."
Suddenly her voice stopped, her eyes sharpened, and she looked at the river directly ahead.
In the clear river ahead, at some point, a human head surfaced on the surface of the river.
A monstrous head with only one eye.
"Last time I let you escape, this time, I will never be careless again." The strange man slowly surfaced, and under his one-eyed head was a larger gray-black body.
Red Fangzhu tilted his head slightly, looking to the left and right at the same time.
Two identical one-eyed heads also emerged from the river on both sides, but they were smaller than the one directly in front of them.
At the back, there is a woman in white sitting cross-legged on the water. It's just that there is a black mask on its face, and the face cannot be seen.
"How did you find me?" Master Hongfang's expression darkened.
"You don't need to worry about how we found it, just hand over the fragments of Chilongjie, dig out your own eyes, and I can decide to let you go." The Cyclops in front said in a low voice.
"Do you think it's possible?" Red Fangzhu showed a hint of sarcasm. "The four of you just came to Xinyouhui?"
"What? The four of us are not enough to keep you?" Cyclops reached out and raised the mace. The width of the huge mace was already about the same as the body width of Red Fang Zhu.
"Leave me?" Master Hongfang also stretched out his right palm, and a translucent slender blade slowly emerged from his palm.
"Let's think about how to survive."
Chi! !
The two started at the same time, a huge water wave exploded, and the two figures collided suddenly among the spray.
boom!
The transparent long knife flickered three times in an instant, releasing a huge invisible heat. It landed precisely in the middle of the mace.
Clang, clang! !
There were three crisp sounds in a row, and the Cyclops roared angrily, flung it with all his strength, and smashed the Red Square Master hard with great force. But its mace also clicked, and the upper half broke, and it was cut off on the spot after a single encounter.
The other three Cyclops surrounded them at the same time. They seemed to be huge in size, but they moved extremely fast. The mace in their hands kept screaming through the air, and they passed the Red Square Master one after another.
The violent wind and waves caused by the weapons alone blasted the originally calm river into splashes. The four of them seemed to form a strange formation, surrounded by Red Fangzhu and Umbrella Girl, constantly moving at high speed, and rushing up from time to time to block any breakthrough by Red Fangzhu.
Umbrella Girl watched anxiously from the sidelines, but she couldn't get her hands in. The weakest of the four people participating in the battle was the strength of the peak Qiwen.
