'Bang!'
'Bang!'
'Bang!'
This time, instead of one, the punch directly turned three hills into tiny pieces.
At this moment,
On Jin Yang's peak, Wang Jin Yang and his students were completely stunned.
Wang Jin Yang stood thoroughly still, he forgot to breathe.
Earlier, Lu Changsheng used the Jin Yang Sword Technique and removed a small hill.
But Lu Changsheng's one single punch bombarded three small hills this time.
The power that was displayed was already close to that of a cultivator who reached the Complete Stage of Gold Core.
However, Lu Changsheng's Dharmic powers were only at the Qi Refining stage.
In other words, Lu Changsheng could use the prowess within the Qi Refining stage and defeat those who are at the Complete Stage of Gold Core.
At this time, Wang Jin Yang recalled what his master once told him—
"In the world of cultivation, the huge gap between two stages can never be transcended. Those at the Qi Refining stage can never defeat anyone at the Foundation Establishment stage. This also goes the same for those at the Foundation Establishment stage, they can never defeat anyone at the Core Formation stage. If a cultivator ever breaks this rule, then an ordinary man would be able to defeat an immortal!
"In history, those who could use the prowess within the Qi Refining stage to defeat Foundation Establishment cultivators were considered as amazingly outstanding people.
"Those who could use the Foundation Establishment stage prowess to defeat Core Formation cultivators are considered as matchless monsters.
"If one can use the Core Formation stage to defeat Golden Core cultivators, then that person is a peerless genius."
Many years ago, when Wang Jin Yang was still at the Qi Refining stage, he defeated a Foundation Establishment cultivator and gained immeasurable fame.
Later, when he reached the Foundation Establishment stage, his fight against a Core Formation cultivator ended in a draw. That very fight made his name well-known in the entire world. The power of his Jin Yang Sword Technique could light up ten districts in Middle-Earth.
Today, after observing Lu Changsheng's power, Wang Jin Yang completely lost his pride.
Instead, he felt ashamed.
This was because at one time, he regarded Lu Changsheng as a competitor. However—
He could now see that he would never be able to compete against Lu Changsheng.
If Lu Changsheng was a bright moon, then he was only a dim star which was almost invisible in the background.
The rest of the disciples were utterly shocked.
Earlier, they refused to believe it.
But when Lu Changsheng clearly showed that he was using a Qi Refining stage's powers, they were completely shocked.
They didn't have any more excuses.
They were convinced.
They were truly convinced.
On Zenith Land's main peak.
Lu Changsheng himself was also shocked.
Although he infused all of his strength into this punch, the destructive power was still unexpected.
He destroyed three hills in a row just now, would he be punished?
Lu Changsheng comforted himself by saying that he wouldn't be penalized for this, because, after all, he was the Eldest Senior Brother in the Zenith Land. He would probably be scolded at most.
However, in actuality—
While they were still in the Zenith Palace, none of the senior leaders really cared about what he just did.
It wasn't a big deal at all that a couple of small hills were decimated.
If Lu Changsheng wanted to take down the main peak, no one would say a single word.
Since Lu Changsheng had now tested both the sword and fist technique. Then it was now time for him to test the escape and transformation spells.
When his Qi recovered, Lu Changsheng tried out the technique that could be used for escaping.
Within a split second, Lu Changsheng disappeared from his spot and reappeared a few hundred miles away from where he was earlier.
Despite this, Lu Changsheng wasn't satisfied with it at all.
Even though a few hundred miles sounded like a long distance but in the world of cultivation, a Foundation Establishment cultivator could fly a few hundred miles within an hour.
A few of the good things about the technique was that it would only consume a tenth of Lu Changsheng's Dharmic powers, and that the cooldown is extremely short. Thus, Lu Changsheng could use it multiple times in a row.
In other words, this technique could enable Lu Changsheng to travel a few thousand miles within a couple of seconds. This could make things more comfortable for Lu Changsheng.
In fact, a Qi Refining cultivator could only run about a hundred meters within a second using this technique. But since this wasn't stated in the book, Lu Changsheng wasn't satisfied at all.
The next spell he was going to try out, the transformation spell, was Lu Changsheng's favorite.
He could turn himself into a rock or a tree to hide from his enemies.
With this said, Lu Changsheng tried it out by turning himself into a rock.
In the following four hours, not a single person noticed him. Among all the books he read, this one was really good.
The next one was the Mind Control spell.
By using his eyes, the caster would be able to hypnotize his enemies and control their mind.
It was really easy to understand, however, since Lu Changsheng didn't have a subject at the moment, he decided to temporarily put it aside.
He turned to look at the last book.
[How to Effectively Avoid Furnace Explosions]
This book was extremely important to him. Lu Changsheng started reading it very carefully.
After two hours, Lu Changsheng finally put the book aside. He was enlightened.
According to the book, the inner high pressure would make a furnace explode. This pressure was created when herbal ingredients were cooked and the spiritual air within was released.
The spiritual air was confined within a small pill. Because of this, the state was rather unstable.
Once the spiritual air within would be suddenly released, a chain reaction would set off and the furnace would explode.
Therefore, the only solution was to control the temperature and choose mild herbal ingredients. The book also suggested for the pill refiner to practice a lot.
Long story short, this book talked a load of garbage.
Lu Changsheng finally realized why this book was in that section. There wasn't much substance in this book.
Shame on the author!
Although he wasted some time, Lu Changsheng tried convincing himself that he still learned something.
Spiritual air and pressure?
A chain reaction?
Exploding furnaces?
Pills that can explode?
Grenades?
Lu Changsheng suddenly had a lot of ideas.
Since a furnace could explode during the process of pill refining, maybe he was able to make pills that can explode anytime.
If there was enough spiritual air, then the blast should be quite powerful.
If this idea worked, then he wouldn't need to worry about the trip anymore. A couple of grenades would be able to kill all the monsters and demons easily.
This idea went out of control and it gave him a big sense of thrill.
A bold plan started to enrapture in his mind, why even bother making all those pills?
He should simply focus on one type of pill, which could explode like hand grenades.
Lu Changsheng directly went back to the palace.
He started working on this new pill recipe.
With this specific idea ready in his mind, it was easy to come up with the recipe.
Within an hour, the new pill recipe was ready.
Lu Changsheng also came up with the name–[Blissful Death Demon-Conquering Pill]
The idea was simple and straightforward. One single pill would be able to send one to heaven. In addition to the idea of conquering demons, Lu Changsheng found this name perfect!
It had the perfect feeling!
Since it would be very soon before he would set off, Lu Changsheng started taking action immediately.
This time, Lu Changsheng didn't choose Liu Qingfeng to make this pill. Instead, he asked Li Chun to find twenty senior pill masters and they would do the experiments together.
A single person's power was always rather limited.
He didn't have time to waste after all.
After telling Li Chun what to do, Lu Changsheng started to concentrate on his cultivation while waiting for the good news.
Just like this, in the blink of an eye, it was already about twenty days later.
After countless failures, The pills that Lu Changsheng had been longing for so long had finally been successfully produced.
While taking the pills with him, Li Chun came to the main peak with joy and excitement.
At this time, another unusual phenomenon occurred.
Golden clouds gathered over the Zenith Land.
On the main peak, after ten days of diligent cultivation, Lu Changsheng finally somehow made a small breakthrough.
Although he was only at Qi Refining's mid-stage, Lu Changsheng's power improved by at least ten times.
