Lu Chen knew that the city lord's anger was not feigned, because the Sun family and the city lord had always had conflicts. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, but in the small city of Shifeng, there are two comparable forces, naturally there will be conflicts.
Originally, the city lord was the master of Shifeng City, but the city lord had no descendants, nor did he accept disciples, and he had no masters under his command. Although he himself had the cultivation base of the fifth level of the innate realm, the Sun family already had three masters of the innate realm, and The family is becoming more and more prosperous. According to this trend, it is likely that within a few years, they will truly become the ruler of Shifeng City.
However, Lu Chen didn't seem to understand anything, and said with a confused face: "It is said that the masters of the Sun family only have the cultivation base of the first and second innate realms, so they shouldn't be enough to compete with the city lord, right?"
The city lord sighed and said: "But they have three masters of the innate realm, and Sun Nantian also gave birth to a good daughter. I heard that this daughter will soon be promised to the Nangong family in Xianyi City as a concubine. Strength is not something I can afford."
When the city lord said this, a trace of fear flashed across his face involuntarily, obviously remembering something terrible.
Lu Chen saw it in his eyes, and his heart moved slightly. This old fox's cultivation base is not low, but when he mentions the Nangong family, his face turns pale. It seems that the power of the Nangong family may still exceed ordinary people's imagination.
"Then what should I do?" Lu Chen had a very concerned expression.
The city lord said helplessly: "For the current plan, I have to find a way to counter the Sun family. I am old, and I am afraid that my cultivation will stop here in this life. I can only pin my hope on my nephew. I heard that my meridians have been exhausted a few days ago. , I didn't take good care of him, please be considerate." He apologized to Lu Chen repeatedly.
He naturally understood that if he didn't show a little sincerity, it would be impossible for Chase Lu to stand on the same side as him.
"The City Lord is an elder, so there is no need to be like this. The Sun family is also my personal enemy." Lu Chen said quickly, "But the junior's mere cultivation level of the seventh level of the day after tomorrow can't help the Sun family."
The city lord smiled and said: "Nephew, you don't have to be too modest. Your talent is well known. As long as you can win the first place in the martial arts test, you can become a disciple of the Xingyun Sect. You will have a bright future in the future. It will be good to take care of the old man when the time comes."
As he spoke, he took out an old yellowed book from his bosom, with the words "Qingmu Dafa" engraved on it, and said: "This is a book of exercises that I accidentally obtained thirty years ago. It is a pity that I have little talent and learning, and I can only learn 10-20% of the surface, otherwise, let alone the mere Sun family, even if it is the Nangong family, I will not be afraid at all."
Lu Chen's face remained the same, but his heart was greatly moved. This person showed a look of extreme fear of the Nangong family just now, but now he dared to boast like this, obviously he had great confidence in this Aoki Dafa.
The city lord continued: "Now I am giving this exercise to my nephew. Although this exercise is extremely advanced, my nephew still has a long way to go. I have time to study it slowly." Give this skill to Lu Chen.
The city lord obviously paid a lot of money to win over Chase Lu.
He only hoped that Lu Chen could get the first place in the martial arts test, and by virtue of Lu Chen's title of "Xingyun Sect inner disciple", the Sun family would not dare to be presumptuous.
After all, the Sun family had already had a lot of grudges with Lu Chen, and it would not be wise to offend the city lord too much.
The city lord intends to cultivate Lu Chen, and the purpose is also to create a big enemy for the Sun family. He can see that Lu Chen's potential is completely sure to win the first place in the martial arts test.
Lu Chen took the Aoki Dafa and looked through it carefully. It took more than an hour before he knew it. The city owner has been sitting by the side without urging.
The Green Wood Dafa is a five-element wood-based exercise, and Lu Chen had practiced a similar exercise in his previous life.
With Lu Chen's knowledge and eyesight, what kind of peerless skills have he never seen? This Aoki Dafa was not necessarily miraculous in the previous life.
But looking at it now, it is considered extremely precious.
Because of this Aoki Dafa, Chase Lu can truly understand the kung fu system of this world in depth.
While watching and thinking, Lu Chen quickly summed up the differences between the two worlds' kung fu systems, and deduced them. He could see that there were still some things to be perfected in this Aoki Dafa, but this kung fu was indeed worthy of the title. The most advanced cultivation method.
No wonder the city lord was able to reach the realm of the fifth level of innate cultivation, mainly relying on this green wood method.
However, he is not modest in claiming that he "has little talent and learning, and only learned 10-20% of the surface", because Aoki Dafa is too profound, involving advanced martial arts knowledge, and only a master of martial arts like Lu Chen can understand it.
However, due to the differences in martial arts between the two generations, there are some points that need to be carefully understood and pondered by Chase Lu.
Two hours later, Lu Chen finished reading the book, put it away, and then bowed to the city lord again, saying: "Thank you for your help, the city lord. This green wood method is very useful to me." There is a sense of gratitude, this Aoki Dafa can be called a generous gift to him, even if the purpose of the city lord is to win over him, it is worthy of his gratitude and future help.
The city lord was quite surprised and said: "Can you understand? This technique is so profound that ordinary people can't understand it at all."
Lu Chen watched for a full two hours. If he said he couldn't understand it, he definitely wouldn't have watched it for such a long time, but at his age, it was incredible that he could understand such profound martial arts.
"I understand a little bit, but most of them don't. Just look at it casually, but it can be seen that this is a peerless skill." Lu Chen said indifferently.
The city lord nodded and said: "In the future, when you enter the Nebula Sect, as your knowledge and cultivation increase, you will definitely be able to practice the Aoki Dafa." Naturally, he would not think that Lu Chen could understand this skill now.
The two then talked about some cultivation issues, most of which were said by the city lord, and Lu Chen listened, but Lu Chen's martial arts knowledge was much higher than that of the city lord, and the martial arts that the city lord said were too simple for him, but he It's inconvenient to refuse the other party's kindness, so I can only perfunctory for a while.
After a while, Lu Chen was about to leave when suddenly a guard in green clothes hurried in and said to the city lord: "My lord, a monster appeared in the mine of Heifengling and killed several miners. The adults will send someone to deal with it."
The city lord frowned and asked, "What monster?"
"It is said to be a colorful tiger." The guard said.
"Beautiful tiger? This kind of monster is indeed not weak, what does the Sun family say?"
"The Sun family has already dispatched people."
The city lord thought for a moment, and said to Lu Chen: "If my nephew is free, why not take the people from my city lord's mansion to help deal with this monster, how about it?"
Lu Chen knew that the mine in Heifengling mentioned by the guards was referring to a small spar mine in the west of the city. This spar mine is the "common property" of Shifeng City, but the so-called common property is actually completely The Sun family and the city lord's mansion divided it up, and the crystal stones they picked were divided 50-50.
There is a problem with the spar mine, and naturally the two families have to solve it together.
Originally, both the city lord and the Sun family wanted to monopolize the spar mine, but monopoly is not practical, it will only intensify the conflict and cause bloody conflicts, so the two families took a step back and turned into a situation of mutual cooperation.
But this kind of cooperation is only short-lived, and the hostility between the two has not diminished slightly.
Now the city lord wants Lu Chen to deal with the colorful tiger in the mine, not because no one in the city lord's mansion can deal with this monster, but to show a gesture to the Sun family: Lu Chen is from the city lord's mansion, There was no estrangement due to previous unpleasant things.
Lu Chen just received a big gift from someone, so he should have something to say, so he nodded and said: "Yes, it's not a problem to kill a colorful tiger. I'll go there tomorrow."
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Lu Chen went straight back home and began to study the Aoki Dafa in detail.
Lu's backyard.
Lu Chen was sitting cross-legged on the ground quietly. Not long after, a burst of green energy emerged from his body, and an emerald green light appeared above his head, illuminating the surrounding greenery.
This effect can be produced at the beginning of practice. If the city lord sees it, he will be so surprised that his eyes will fall out.
All the surrounding wood attribute aura gathered on Lu Chen, and soon filled his whole body, limbs and bones.
Wood attribute profound energy symbolizes the endless vitality between heaven and earth. Warriors who cultivate wood attribute profound energy generally have a longer lifespan, because it is a good health-preserving method.
Lu Chen's body was tempered and nourished by the spiritual power of Qingmu, and its vitality was greatly improved.
This means that his lifespan and original soul power have been raised to a higher level, and his physical ability has improved by leaps and bounds.
Now even if he gets a full blow from a martial artist of the same level, he won't be injured.
Lu Chen did not practice rigidly according to Aoki Dafa, but integrated his own knowledge of martial arts, made certain modifications on it, and integrated a set of corresponding boxing techniques into it.
This sounds like a very simple matter, but no one dares to do it except for the great master of martial arts. A mature technique has already been tempered, and any unauthorized modification may fall into the danger of becoming crazy, but Lu Chen was not worried.
A set of exercises has been practiced very flexibly.
"The green dragon comes out of the water!"
"Long You Nine Heavens!"
"Thousands of trees contend for spring!"
Lu Chen immersed himself in the practice, boxing and green wood profound energy fused together, the whole small courtyard was full of greenery, even the moss and grass in the corners became green, exuding a strong vitality.
It's autumn now, but the grass and trees are giving off the breath of spring.
This is the miraculous effect of the Qingmu Dafa, as long as the wood attribute magical skills among the five elements are practiced to the extreme, the divine power of the ancient Qing Emperor can be reproduced.
In ancient times, Emperor Qing could control the withering and flourishing of vegetation in the world, making plum blossoms bloom in summer and peach blossoms in autumn.
Su Xuan, who was quietly guarding next to him, saw this miraculous scene, and was already too surprised to speak.
This is almost miraculous.
"Congratulations, brother Chen, you have practiced another supreme skill." Su Xuan congratulated Lu Chen quickly when he saw Lu Chen finish his skills.
Lu Chen shook his head and said, "It's just practiced, and it's far from mastered. If you want to practice this skill, you must have strong green wood spiritual power, and Shifeng City does not have such a condition."
The spiritual power of green wood must rely on spiritual wood to develop it. Spiritual wood is some trees that have existed for a long time between heaven and earth. It is full of spirituality because it has absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth. Only by practicing with this kind of spiritual wood can one be able to practice the great method of green wood.
Even so, Lu Chen's Qingmu Dafa has laid a shallow foundation, which is an important progress for his cultivation path.
