Chapter 370: Someone from Headquarters

"Looking at it this way, this is the same principle as opening the Dantian Qi Sea in the Vein Refining Realm; the more True Qi one has, the higher the success rate," Lu Yu muttered to himself.

Because of the existence of the panel, he could see the success rate of the breakthrough very intuitively.

But Lu Yu was not a person who liked to take risks or gamble; he planned to wait until the success rate reached one hundred percent before choosing to break through.

It was just that he was a bit curious: would the quality of the condensed Martial Dao True Pill have a certain correlation with the amount of True Essence?

Thinking of this, he moved his gaze downward and saw that the previously displayed 160,000 amount of True Qi had now become 1,600 points.

Clearly, one drop of True Essence was equivalent to 100 points of True Qi.

"1,600 points of True Essence only filled 1% of the Qi Sea. To completely fill the Qi Sea, it actually requires 160,000 points of True Essence," Lu Yu pondered to himself, wondering if this quantity was a bit too much.

He needed to reach 160,000 points of True Essence to have a chance to condense the Martial Dao True Pill.

Then, for other True Essence Realm Martial Artists, when they first reached the requirement for condensing the Martial Dao True Pill, did they also need this much True Essence?

Could it be that the more True Qi one has in their body when breaking through the Vein Refining Realm, the more True Essence will be required to fill the Qi Sea upon reaching the True Essence Realm, far exceeding that of Martial Artists at the same realm?

"It seems it would be better to find a True Essence Realm Martial Artist to ask later." The figure of Kong Ming appeared in Lu Yu's mind.

By comparing with the other party, the differences should be clear at a glance.

Lu Yu scanned the remaining basic attributes roughly and did not find any unexpected situations. He withdrew his gaze and finally landed on the plus sign behind the Realm.

If he guessed correctly, clicking this plus sign would allow him to consume Potential Points to increase the percentage in front.

He clicked it with the mindset of giving it a try, and immediately a line of prompt information appeared before his eyes:

【Each consumption of 100 million Potential Points increases 1% of Source True Essence. Do you wish to increase it?】

"Each consumption of 100 million can increase 1% of Source True Essence?" Lu Yu's eyes lit up instantly.

Recalling back when he was in the Vein Refining Realm, consuming 100 million Potential Points could only open one acupoint and obtain about one hundred points of True Qi.

And now, 100 million Potential Points could actually increase 1% of Source True Essence, which was 1.36 points; converted, it was equivalent to 136 points of True Qi.

One must know that this was just the beginning. Later on, as his Source True Qi increased, 1% might become 2 points or 3 points of True Essence.

If he could learn more mental cultivation methods later and consume more Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, then accumulating 160,000 points of True Essence did not seem like an unreachable difficulty.

"The President said that the package from the headquarters will only arrive in the evening. Besides weapons and medicinal herbs, there is also a Cloud Jade Fruit inside.

I will go eat that fruit first, and then it won't be too late to continue upgrading. As for now, I will first try running a cycle to increase my Source True Essence."

After all, even if the increase was small, it was still an increase, and this was also one of the methods currently available to effectively increase Source True Essence.

Lu Yu immediately sat cross-legged, focused his Spirit to control the True Essence, let it slowly set out from the Qi Sea, flow slowly along the Extraordinary Meridians, and finally return to the Qi Sea smoothly. This process took about two minutes.

The moment the True Essence returned to the Dantian Qi Sea, he clearly felt that the Source True Essence in the Qi Sea had increased by one drop, and the total amount of True Essence had also increased by nearly ten drops.

This discovery made him overjoyed, and his whole body was full of motivation.

After all, according to the previous consumption ratio, 100 million Potential Points only increased one-point-something of Source True Essence; calculating it this way, it was simply like earning 100 million Potential Points.

He mobilized the True Essence again. This time he ran two cycles, taking four minutes, and the Source True Essence in his body indeed increased by another drop.

Just as Lu Yu was immersed in the joy of this improvement, running the cycles tirelessly.

A mysterious man wearing a windbreaker, with a tall and upright figure, and a mask on his face, slowly walked to the entrance of the Yongan City Martial Dao Branch.

He raised his head slightly, his gaze landing on the large characters above the door, his pupils contracted slightly for an instant, and then he nodded lightly.

Seeing this, an enthusiastic woman immediately went up to meet him, asking with a face full of smiles: "Sir, welcome to our Yongan City Martial Dao Association. Is there anything I can do for you?"

The corners of the man's mouth raised slightly, revealing a mocking smile, and he said slowly: "Is there someone called Lu Yu here?"

"How did you..." The woman had just opened her mouth when she realized she had let something slip. She hurriedly stopped her words, looking at the man in front of her with a vigilant face.

"It seems this is the place." The man said in a flat tone: "Take me to see him."

"Take... take you to see him?"

Hearing the request of this strange man in front of her, the expression on the woman's face froze instantly, as awkward as if a layer of ice had formed on her face.

She did know Lu Yu, but the two of them were only nodding acquaintances.

Although Lu Yu usually didn't seem to have any airs and would smile at her slightly every time they met, he was a genuine In-Jin Martial Artist!

How could people like them see him just because they wanted to?

What's more, this person in front of her was of unknown origin and was even wearing a mask, which was baffling...

Seeing the woman's reaction, the man couldn't help but frown slightly.

Just at this moment, a man in his early thirties, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, walked over quickly.

"Xiaoyue, what happened?" As he spoke, the man curiously cast his gaze toward the masked man, looking him up and down.

"Manager Chen, this gentleman said he wants to come here to find someone." The woman hurriedly explained.

"Find someone?" Manager Chen looked the other party over carefully again, then turned to the woman and said: "Alright, I know, leave this to me. You go receive other guests first."

"Yes, thank you, Manager Chen." The woman gave him a grateful look and ran away quickly as if granted amnesty.

"This gentleman, may I ask your surname, and who are you looking for at our Association?" Manager Chen asked politely with a professional smile on his face.

The masked man's brows furrowed even tighter, seemingly already a bit impatient, and he directly questioned: "Where is Lu Yu?"

"Lu... Lu Yu?" A trace of vigilance flashed in Manager Chen's eyes instantly, and he asked cautiously: "This gentleman, may I ask, what is your business with Mr. Lu?"

"What?" The masked man's mouth hooked into a playful smile, his tone carrying a hint of mockery, "Do I have to report to you before I can look for him?"

"Sir, that's not what I meant." Manager Chen maintained his smile and explained, "This is the Association's regulation. If you are unwilling to state your purpose, we really have no way to report it upward. I hope you can understand."

"Report upward?" The masked man muttered in a low voice.

It seemed that counting on these people in front of him to help find the whereabouts of that kid was probably not easy.

Never mind, then let's just call the President here out first.

If the other party cooperated obediently, then naturally everyone would be happy; if the other party was not sensible, then don't blame him for being impolite.

"Just based on you, you aren't qualified to make me state the reason. Who is the President here? Tell him to come out and see me immediately."

Once these words were out, the surroundings became quiet instantly, and many staff members and Martial Artists cast surprised gazes.

What kind of background does this guy have? His tone is actually so arrogant!

However, it must be said that this person truly exuded an aura that made one feel danger.

Manager Chen was also stunned by this momentum, but he still feigned composure and squeezed out a smile, saying:

"This gentleman, if you are looking for our President, you should at least provide a business card? Otherwise, it is really difficult for me to..." He stopped mid-sentence and swallowed his words back.

"A business card?" The masked man sneered, "Just tell him that someone from headquarters has arrived and is waiting for him in the lobby."
