Chapter 206: Cultivating Wind-Style Vigorous Qi
Inside the cultivation room.
A figure stood tall and proud, like a venerable cauldron.
With rhythmic breathing, he drew in the wind-attributed energy scattering around his body.
Violent winds raged around, forming countless small whirlwinds that continually collided and sparked.
Yet within a one-meter radius centered on Lu Jing, a gentle breeze brushed his face, and any hurricane entering this range softened.
His whole person resembled a towering tree on an endless prairie, standing alone and distinctive.
"Beep——"
"Insufficient time, the wind-attribute cultivation environment will shut down!"
As the mechanical prompt sounded, the fierce winds inside the cultivation room gradually ceased.
"Whoosh——"
Lu Jing exhaled slowly, his prolonged breath stirring a minor vortex in the room.
He opened his palm, and a wind‑blue gang qi appeared in his hand, its form lighter than before but its density noticeably greater.
After just a few hours of training in the cultivation room, he gained such a harvest.
Lu Jing again tried to sense the external wind‑attributed energy, but this time he saw only a few scattered specks of light.
"The cultivation room really is a great place; at this rate I'll soon master the Cosmic Breath Technique to the Entry Realm..."
To reach the Entry Realm of the Cosmic Breath Technique, one must master three breathing methods.
Lu Jing planned to start with wind, fire, and earth attributes, which are also the most practical.
They would grant him improvements in speed, attack, and defense.
"When I have time, I'll come here to train more often."
Lu Jing felt a bit regretful; the training time was too short, leaving him wanting more.
But there was no choice—other students were queued behind him, so he had to leave the cultivation room first.
Lu Jing walked to the wardrobe, put on his clothes, opened the cultivation room's door, and walked out.
"Junior Sister Jiang, please help me—I have a mission in a few days and urgently need to boost my strength; could you find me an empty cultivation room?"
A youth carrying a longsword stood before the counter, anxiously gazing at Jiang Fanxin.
Jiang Fanxin spread her hands, looking somewhat helpless.
"Senior, you know the cultivation room's rules—I can only put you back in line later; besides, I don't have that much authority..."
At that moment, Lu Jing strode out from inside.
"Lu Jing, you've come out?"
"Yeah."
Lu Jing nodded, handing the access card to Jiang Fanxin, "Thanks, you weren't going to have me treat you, right? Shall we go now?"
"Sigh, I can't; I have overtime today—let's reschedule."
Jiang Fanxin sighed, "By the way, how was your first time in the cultivation room? Any progress?"
Lu Jing thought for a moment and replied, "Yes, I've made great progress."
"You can come more often; if you need to book, just tell me on Prestige, and I'll help."
Jiang Fanxin smiled and slid Lu Jing's student ID, which had been under the counter, across to him.
"Mm, good."
Lu Jing took the student ID and bade farewell to Jiang Fanxin.
Meanwhile, the youth beside them stood frozen, face full of disbelief.
"Treat me to a meal? I didn't mishear—Junior Sister Jiang, are you actually going on a date with that guy?!"
On the surface he was asking Jiang Fanxin to help him find a cultivation room, but it was merely an excuse.
He simply wanted a topic to chat with Jiang Fanxin to deepen their relationship.
But Lu Jing's sudden appearance left him utterly dumbfounded.
"This kid looks awfully familiar!"
The youth watched Lu Jing's retreating back and hurriedly chased after him.
After leaving the cultivation room area, Lu Jing headed toward the dormitory.
His speed was great; in the blink of an eye he vanished from sight.
Moreover, his calm breathing still carried a hint of wind...
"The wind breath's boost to speed is truly terrifying—even the Moon Shadow Plucking Stars Technique was indirectly strengthened."
The Moon Shadow Plucking Stars Technique broke through from the First Realm to the Second Realm.
Second Realm—Shadow Moon, in an instant, a hundred meters!
Having succeeded in his cultivation, Lu Jing eagerly began testing it on campus.
Not far off, three students were walking toward him.
"I heard the people from Yanghai Martial University are coming to our school to assault the tower—true or false?"
"It's true; they've already sent a challenge letter and will come to our school in a month."
"Damn, those Yanghai Martial University folks are too arrogant—last year they seized the Ultimate Tower's usage rights for a month, leaving everyone with credits nowhere to use!"
For students of prestigious martial universities, the Ultimate Tower's training for combat ability is irreplaceable.
Therefore, more people queue to challenge the tower than to use the cultivation room.
To address the equipment shortage, the various martial universities jointly enacted a regulation.
"If our school's Ultimate Tower quota is insufficient, we can go to other martial universities to assault their towers; if we successfully break their tower‑challenge records, we earn one month's usage of our own Ultimate Tower."
This regulation undoubtedly promoted friendly exchanges among the martial universities.
Just last year, students from Yanghai Military University came to assault the tower; at that time the school's experts were on a mission, leaving a manpower shortage that was exploited.
The usage rights were snatched by the students from Yanghai Military University.
While the three were venting, a figure suddenly flashed ahead.
The figure was swift; in the brief moment the three were stunned, it vanished.
It was like a gust of fresh wind passing by.
When they came to their senses, they were surprised to find their positions had shifted, as if someone had bumped them.
"Whoa, a ghost!"
One of the boys jumped in fright.
"It seemed just now that someone passed through our midst..."
"You two must have misseen; it was clearly just a gust of wind, don't scare yourselves!"
After returning to the dormitory, Lu Jing's first action was to take a top‑grade Dan Medicine for himself.
The Dan Medicine entered his stomach, and pure energy manifested within his body; a warm current flowed along his meridians, traversing the whole body, permeating limbs and bones.
In no time, the consumption in the cultivation chamber was fully replenished.
Feeling the lingering abundant medicinal power inside, Lu Jing began practicing the Star Chronicle Forging Body Technique.
When he reached the tenth round, he stopped, having completely drained the medicinal power.
"The Star Chronicle Forging Body Technique now seems to have hit a bottleneck for me; it's not as strong as before."
Lu Jing clearly sensed that his body had developed resistance, making the stimulation of these movements much weaker.
"To synthesize an enhanced Star Chronicle Forging Body Technique, I must first upgrade the synthesis panel to the next level…"
Lu Jing opened the synthesis panel interface, took the USB device storing the Star Chronicle Forging Body Technique from his ring, and inserted it.
The synthesis panel is currently at the intermediate stage; it can only combine like items up to four times. To increase the number of combinations, please upgrade the synthesis panel!
"When synthesizing the Star Chronicle Forging Body Technique, it landed a critical hit, equivalent to having combined it four times."
