Chapter 171



171 Can you come out for a walk?

The soaring control rate allowed Lu Qing to see the hope of completing the three-star Achievement [ control of the prefecture ].

The requirement for this achievement was that the Lu family had to have more than 70% control over a Prefecture.

Previously, it had been stuck because the control rate of Pingan County was too low, which led to the overall control rate of the entire County not increasing.

Lu Qing did not care much about the benefits that the achievement would bring. It was only a few hundred karma.

However, this was one of the three main requirements for a clan to be promoted to four-star.

Lu Qing had also found the other two criteria.

The clan had more than three initial enlightenment cultivators; The clan had a cultivator at the sixth level of the initial enlightenment stage and above.

This condition was a little difficult to accept.

He had been counting on Lu chaoxi to reach the sixth level. He was now at the second level of the initial enlightenment stage. If he exchanged for all kinds of exchange items that could speed up his cultivation, he would probably need to spend at least twenty years to reach the sixth level of the initial enlightenment stage.

Mingchao had just been enlightened, but there was still a vacancy. He probably had to think of a way from Chaohe.

However, Lu Qing thought about it again. It did not seem to take that long. After Li Yanling married into the Lu clan, wouldn’t the Lu clan have a cultivator at the sixth level of the initial enlightenment realm or above? The total number of initial enlightenment cultivators could also reach three.

However, this matter wasn’t really guaranteed. Lu Qing could see that regardless of whether it was a man or a woman who married into the Lu clan, they would be considered a member of the Lu clan. Of course, when the men of the Lu family married into other families, and when the women married out, they would naturally leave the family.

However, Li Yanling’s situation was a little special. Her marriage with Lu chaoxi was more like a ‘political marriage’. At the very least, it was more complicated in this aspect than a normal marriage.

Based on the current situation, after the two of them got married, Li Yanling’s status should still be ‘sect cultivator’, the second most important person in the sect’s hai clan. The Lu family’s vibes might not be as strong on her.

If that was the case, would he be considered a member of the family by the system?

Lu Qing was not sure either.

However, no matter what, he was still looking forward to the promotion of the clan to four-star.

After upgrading from two-star to three-star, there was no particularly huge breakthrough in the system’s functions. At most, the probability of a good exchange option being refreshed had increased. However, what he cared about the most was the progress of his resurrection.

When he was a two-star, he was a real dead man. Other than his consciousness and physical strength, he was of no use. At three-star, although he still couldn’t move his body, he could at least cultivate. Moreover, with the support of the system, the cultivation environment was very good. He even broke through from the fifth-stage golden core realm to the sixth-stage golden core realm.

What would happen when he reached four-star?

If two-star to three-star could cultivate, then could three-star to four-star Kasaya come out for a walk?

Although he knew that this might be a bit of a pipe dream, it wasn’t completely hopeless.

……

A year and a half later, the control of Pingan County had risen to more than 60%. This also meant that the achievement of “controlling the prefecture” had been completed. Lu Qing received a reward of 500 karma.

The practical significance of this achievement meant that the Huang family’s control over ping ‘an County had indeed gone up a level.

Since that was the case, Lu mingchao did not need to continue staying on Mount peace.

However, it was not a waste of time.

In the past one and a half years, she had mainly done two things.

The first was to stabilize his cultivation by switching to the three revolutions origin technique. This kind of balanced and gentle all-attribute cultivation technique, and it was only a high-grade one, could not help her improve further, but it could temporarily stabilize her cultivation. At the very least, it allowed Lu mingchao to escape the predicament of having Qiming-level spiritual power but not having the support of her main cultivation technique.

The second thing was that she had already further researched the body blink technique. Through this, she had a deeper understanding of the power that the void Spirit root in her body represented.

Ming Chao could now use the teleportation technique continuously. Although continuously flickering consumed a lot of spirit power, it made it even more difficult to guard against. The next step she planned to solve was the problem of the movement being too obvious after flashing and jumping.

In fact, the noise was much smaller than before, but her goal was to achieve complete silence.

This step was actually much more difficult than a continuous jump. It was probably not something that could be completed in a year and a half. However, she also believed that if she completed it, she would have a deeper understanding of Void Spirit roots. At that time, it wouldn’t be too far away for her to develop a cultivation technique that belonged to her.

Lu mingchao intended to continue her closed-door training on Mount peace. After all, this was a level-three spirit vein. If she were to rush back to Yuyan mountain, she would have to spend more spirit stones to cultivate.

However, Lu Qing suggested that she should still return.

There were still four years to go before Yuyan mountain attained a level-three spirit Meridian. Although Ming Chao had to spend some spiritual stones in the past four years, the three-star Sutras Depository on Yuyan mountain had already been completed. Lu Qing felt that if the three-star Scriptures Depository could help Lu mingchao solve the problem of her cultivation technique as soon as possible, the extra spirit stones that he spent would be worth it.

Mingchao was very obedient when it came to such matters. She returned to Yuyan mountain.

……

During this one and a half years, Lu chaoxi stayed in the Qingfeng sect to look after his fiancée.

The incident in ping ‘an County was essentially a mess that the sect leader’s faction didn’t want Li Yanling to transform into a pill.

However, the most terrible thing was that Lu mingchao’s sudden entry into the initial enlightenment stage had really disrupted the plans of the sect leader’s faction. Before the incident in ping ‘an County could continue to ferment, it was suppressed by the Ming Dynasty with absolute strength.

What was even worse was that two of the three late-stage foundation building cultivators that the sect leader had sent to Pingan County had been captured.

After Wei Wuhai and Huang Yi fell into the hands of the Lu family, they admitted that they were cultivators of their sects, but they refused to say who was the mastermind behind this.

It was impossible for them to continue hiding their identities as sect cultivators. Otherwise, they would most likely be treated as enemies and die.

The two of them weren’t prepared to die, so they could only say it in order to save their lives.

After they revealed their identities as cultivators from their sects, the Lu clan did not continue to question them.

There was no need for that.

Everyone knew who the mastermind was. They had to get the evidence, but it should not be the Lu family. If the Lu family took it, there would be more disadvantages than benefits.

Therefore, the Lu family handed these people over to Qiu wanyong, who would come later, and let him bring them into the sect.

These two people had fallen into the hands of the hai clan in the sect.

In the middle, the sect leader’s bloodline also struggled, but on this matter, the hai family no longer retreated. They resisted the pressure and used the God seeking talisman to find out who was behind this.

It was Tian Zheng.
