Chapter 489: The Master's Change

"Creak!"

The wooden box opened.

Liang Qu picked and chose, brought them to his nose to sniff with the "Nose Consciousness Method," and distinguished them in turn.

He took out a bottle of Meridian Marrow Jade Liquid, five lotus seeds, one fluorescent blue lotus flower, and two unknown green roots.

These few items could be considered treasures without any medicinal conflict, which could be taken consecutively in the short term.

Treasure fish were easy to talk about.

For treasure plants and treasure medicines of this kind, many medicinal properties were not entirely compatible.

If one's strength was high, digesting low-level treasure plants quickly was no problem.

If one's strength was low, the residual medicinal properties weren't absorbed, and taking another dose of conflicting items immediately after would be bad.

If the medicinal forces conflicted and dissipated, the waste was a small matter.

If they became toxic, vomiting blood was a big matter.

It could be called cephalosporin with alcohol...

When he first took the Withered-Prosperous Lotus and the Qilin Pill, Liang Qu specifically separated them by half a month, just because he was worried about the conflict of medicinal properties.

Fortunately, the treasure plants sent by the Dragon-Men and snake demons were all water-attributed, so the probability of conflict was small.

And with the miraculous "Nose Consciousness Method," taking the Meridian Marrow Jade Liquid as the main component, arranging and combining them, and sniffing the scent one by one, he could still choose the best way to take them.

Efficiency was greatly improved!

Eat, eat, eat!

Lotus seeds as beans.

A bitter fragrance permeated, leaving no residue, as if holding a mouthful of slightly bitter herbal juice in his mouth.

【Water Essence +1526】

【Water Essence +1678】

【Water Essence +1612】

Then rinse his mouth with the Meridian Marrow Jade Liquid.

Uncork the bottle.

Gulp, gulp~

"Hoo!"

Liang Qu wiped the water stains from his lips, stood up, and started the Ape Fist, stimulating his blood and Qi, digesting the treasure plants and jade liquid in his belly quickly.

His legs and back heated up.

His blood and Qi circulated continuously, washing over him again and again.

Wolf Smoke Condensing Meridians—this meridian is not a meridian, but a circulation created within the body, used to break the human body's upper limit.

Creating Qi meridians requires will to lead, from nothing to something, connecting the nine orifices, and restraining blood and Qi.

Those with poor talent, even if their spirit is exhausted, find it difficult to make progress, and it is hard to condense even one meridian after much effort.

However, the effect of the Meridian Marrow Jade Liquid was as if a large iron weight was attached to his mental will, making it extra powerful when washing, and very easy.

With a slight movement of his will, his blood and Qi were restrained and flowed stably.

A faint silver-white light circulated, presenting a meridian-like shape.

Gradually.

Sweat appeared on Liang Qu's forehead, and his whole body's blood and Qi seemed to be burning, rising into a large expanse of white mist.

Water flowed out of the wooden bucket by the box, circulated around his body, and absorbed the heat.

The meridians pass through the Weilu and Jiaji points.

The foot meridian passed through the tailbone and the Yin orifice, then to the Yongquan (Bubbling Spring).

Both could follow the trend.

Starting from the shoulder blades and Jiaji, rushing to the lumbar spine and tailbone, forming the torso meridian. Once the torso meridian is formed, the torso is cast in steel and iron, immovable like a mountain.

Without stopping, it converged to the Yongquan at the soles of the feet, forming the foot meridian. Once the foot meridian is formed, he can gallop for a thousand miles without fatigue, light as a swallow.

Bang!

His clothes rolled back, and a sound exploded out of thin air.

His five fingers pinched together, bursting with a sharp whistle.

Hoo!

Just this one move, the water liquid around his body evaporated into white steam, rising and drifting away.

The scalding blood heat rose from the soles of his feet, passed through his knees and crotch, connected to his lumbar spine, and reached his shoulder blades!

The blood and Qi dragon raised its head, then suddenly turned its head at the Jiaji pass, diving straight down.

Wherever it passed, two silver-white meridians intertwined and generated, crossing the lumbar spine center, and branching into two feet from the crotch.

Advancing to the bottom, the dragon's long tail flicked, and the torso meridian and foot meridian successively converged into the Chong meridian, heart meridian, and the major circulation of the meridian connection!

Endless!

It succeeded again!

Liang Qu paced out of the door. Without activating any techniques or martial arts, the soles of his feet seemed to have force lifting him, floating, and he couldn't wait to run wildly, circling Yixing Town three times.

"Good kid."

Just broken through, his blood and Qi were not yet settled, burning like a fierce furnace.

Su Guishan saw Liang Qu's progress at a glance, and some groundless thoughts arose in his heart.

Why didn't he have a group of enemies rushing to send him cultivation resources back then?

What kind of logic is this?

Are the enemies too stupid, or is this kid good at bluffing?

Can the Guimu Sect be deceived like this?

Su Guishan fell into deep thought.

"Great-Uncle!" Liang Qu greeted as he passed through the veranda, "Let's eat dinner late tonight, and forget about the midnight snack, okay?"

"Are you treating guests?"

"Yes, thinking of eating late, preparing more dishes, and getting a midnight snack would take until midnight, Auntie Zhang wouldn't be able to rest."

Long Binglin and Long Eying traveled thousands of miles to lead five hundred Dragon-Men here, and after arriving, they hurriedly went out to work; he couldn't be ignorant of the way of hospitality.

He needed to host a banquet in the evening to build rapport.

Su Guishan waved his hand.

Liang Qu thanked him and ran to the kitchen to give separate instructions.

"Auntie Zhang, make more dishes tonight, set up a table, and I'll invite two assistant chefs from the restaurant to help."

Auntie Zhang wiped her hands on her apron: "Why waste that money, Proprietor? I'll just call my own family to help! There are two lazybones at home!"

"Need to make some snacks, invite them separately." Liang Qu thought for a while and felt it wasn't very reliable; he didn't care about that little bit.

"Xinglai! Go to Uncle Chen's house next door, borrow a flatbed cart, and pull half a cart of ice to my master's house!"

"Alright!"

Liang Qu didn't have an ice cellar at home.

Every time he used ice, he either went out to buy it or went directly to his master's house to pull it.

Yang Dongxiong never managed things, and his mistress never said no; the gate was wide open, and he could take as much as he wanted.

"Long Yao, Long Li, tidy up your room, clear out an empty bed, and go clean the hut by the pond, then make another bed."

"Okay, my lord."

On the Great Lake.

Long Binglin and Long Eying arranged all five hundred Dragon-Men according to the markings on the map, surrounding them in a two-thirds circle.

The group of snake demons had no idea they had been "artificially" separated, and a giant net that cut off communication silently covered them.

More than a dozen finless porpoises were no longer active, turning into specialized messengers, distributed proportionally at the nodes of the circular arc.

Whenever the snake demons had any unusual movement, no matter which direction they advanced, A-Wei would send a message to Liang Qu, and Liang Qu would pass it to the finless porpoises. The corresponding "arc" would withdraw one step ahead of the snake demons, hiding itself.

The main point was to be sneaky.

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.

In an era without telephone communication, unless a Martial Saint and mysterious soldiers came.

Otherwise, Liang Qu relies on his mental link to transmit messages without delay, placing him in an absolutely invincible position!

Night.

Liang Qu spent an afternoon gathering most of his boiling blood and Qi, making it introverted.

Long Binglin and Long Eying were invited to the banquet at the appropriate time.

Assisted by two assistant chefs, Auntie Zhang displayed all her skills, and a table of sumptuous dishes truly shocked the two Dragon-Men.

They weren't completely without communication with the human race on weekdays; occasionally, "short" Dragon-Men would bring back snacks like osmanthus cakes from land.

This... has the human recipe developed so fast?

Cups and dishes intertwined, and desserts were served.

"Come, come, try the frozen milk!"

Auntie Zhang brought a large porcelain plate to the table, inside was a small pale yellow cheese mountain, emitting a chilling cold air in the hot weather.

Su Mountain?

"Brother Binglin, Sister Eying, come and try this special Su Mountain, it will melt if it's too late!"

Long Yao and Long Li were the happiest.

The two dragon maidens especially liked to eat frozen milk.

Come to think of it, it was strange; his mistress and senior sister both especially liked this kind of thing. Don't know if it was a coincidence.

Liang Qu took a small bowl and personally dug a bowl for Long Binglin and Long Eying.

Being so "courteous to the worthy," the two were flattered and hurriedly said it shouldn't be.

Tasting it.

The sweet, delicate texture spread, and the cold stimulation made their spirits lift.

A strange snack, never tasted before!

Similar to Su Mountain, but very different. Su Mountain is prepared fruit pulp and cheese mixed with crushed ice; this texture is more soft and smooth, melting in the mouth...

Long Yao said happily: "Delicious, right! It's a snack my lord figured out. The method is too complicated; it needs milk, white sugar, eggs, and cream, beaten until foamy, first heated, then frozen. It takes two or three hours to make one portion, not something we can eat every day, only once every few days."

Once every few days, is it rare...

Long Binglin and Long Eying were speechless.

The two girls really came to enjoy blessings.

"The young master adjusts the ice water, the beauty has lotus silk." Su Guishan laughed loudly and handed out an empty bowl.

Liang Qu served another bowl for Great-Uncle, then looked at the old monk, finding that the Master was still silently tasting and hadn't finished yet.

Speaking of which, the Master had been a bit strange recently...

The old monk said he didn't avoid eating meat, but in reality, he was still a vegetarian.

But recently, don't know how, he gradually started eating meat!

Even things like ice cream, which were obviously used to satisfy the appetite, were tried from time to time.

Must ask him another day.

Liang Qu always cared about "old people."

Although according to the age of the Perfected Form, the old monk was in his prime.

The banquet ended.

Wulong was wagging his tail, looking for bones all over the floor.

Long Binglin and Long Eying thanked him and bid farewell.

"It's late, why not stay here?"

Liang Qu looked at the starry sky and suggested. ===== CHAPTER 490 =====
