Chapter 4: Leaps and bounds

"In the early stage of bone refining!"
An hour later, Lu Chen's internal strength gathered through his body's many main meridians.
At this point, it means that Lu Chen has officially become a cultivator from an ordinary person. Although it was only the lowest level in the early stage of bone refining, this kind of progress was a huge and unmeasurable leap.
An hour ago, Lu Chen was an ordinary person, but now, he is already a cultivator in the early stage of bone refining.
If this kind of cultivation speed spreads out, I am afraid that the entire Qingfeng City people will have their jaws dropped. For nothing else, it will be for Lu Chen to step into the martial arts in just an hour.
You know, among the younger generation of the Lu family, the most talented children are Lu Yanran and others, and even Lu Yanran, it took nearly two months to start from ordinary people. In the early stage of bone.
"Continue to practice!" Lu Chen only felt a little bit of the internal force flow in his body, and then continued to practice his mind.
After another hour, Lu Chen felt that his internal strength was a little unsustainable, so he opened a bottle of bone-refining medicine and swallowed it without hesitation. The bone-refining medicine was swallowed and transformed into a majestic and powerful internal force, which suddenly increased Lu Chen's cultivation speed by a large margin.
Time came to the early morning of the next day in a blink of an eye.
"Fuck!"
There was a fine, crisp sound from Lu Chen's bones.
"Middle of bone refining!"
"In less than a day, I stepped into the middle stage of bone-strengthening, this kind of cultivation speed..."
Lu Chen opened his eyes again and felt his internal strength, his palms trembling slightly.
It was too amazing and too scary.
Lu Chen walked the road that others could only walk in a few years.
To run the Universe Mind Method cultivation, for the current Lu Chen, there is no hindrance. He broke through from ordinary people to the early stage of bone-refining, from the early breakthrough of bone-refining to the middle of bone-refining, he did not even feel a bottleneck.
Lu Chen felt that if he continued to use the bone-refining medicine, it should only take a few days before he could step into the late stage of bone-refining. Above the later stage of bone refining is the body tempering realm. Like Lu Yan, it is only in the later stage of body tempering.
However, Lu Chen had a total of three bottles of bone refining medicine before, and one bottle was used in the previous practice, and now there are only two bottles left. If these two bottles are also used, then Lu Chen will have no medicine available in a short time.
"These two bottles of potions can't be used directly! Yes, I took them to Wanbao Pavilion and sold the two bottles of potions first, and then I have to purchase materials to continue refining more potions." Lu Chen made a decision in his heart and went out immediately.
The other courtyard where Lu Chen lives is in a very remote place in the entire Lu Family Compound, and near the back door of the Lu Family Compound. At the back door of the compound, there are usually very few Lu family children going in and out, so Lu Chen leaves the compound through the back door to avoid being spotted. Lu Chen didn't want to attract other people's attention at all. The most important thing was to muffle his strength.
After half an hour, Lu Chen arrived at the Wanbao Pavilion in Qingfeng City. Wanbao Pavilion was a large-scale commercial building where many items could be bought and sold. It was not the first time that Lu Chen came to Wanbao Pavilion. Most of the potions he refined in the past were also sold in Wanbao Pavilion, so he was familiar with the road and soon came to the Wanbao Pavilion purchase counter.
"Master Lu, do you want to sell medicine again?"
The staff at the purchase counter are also familiar with Lu Chen. Although Lu Chen could not practice and step into the realm of martial arts, he was the descendant of the Lu family after all, and Lu Chen's grandfather was still the third elder of the Lu family's powerful figure, so this staff member has always been more polite to Lu Chen.
"Yes, I want to sell two bottles of bone refining medicine." Lu Chen took out his only two bottles of bone refining medicine and put them on the counter.
"Yeah, isn't this Master Lu Chen?"
"Master Lu Chen, this is for the sale of potions? Yes, I almost forgot that Master Lu Chen is a famous pharmacist in Qingfeng City." As Lu Chen put the potions on the counter, there was a strange look of Yin and Yang. The voice rang behind him.
A young man in a brocade robe with two entourages was looking at Lu Chen with provocative eyes.
Lu Chen turned and glanced at the young man in Jinpao. He knew this person. This person was called Wang Dong, a collateral child of the Wang family. The Wang family, like the Lu family, are the three major families in Qingfeng City, and in terms of overall strength, the Wang family is still above the Lu family.
Wang Dong is only a collateral child of the Wang family, and Lu Chen is a direct descendant of the Lu family. At this time, Wang Dong and Lu Chen greet him with a sneer. The reason why he has this courage is because Lu Chen cannot practice. If Lu Chen is a Lu family who can cultivate, then even if Wang Dong has more courage, he would definitely not dare to provoke him.
"Who am I? It turns out to be a mangy dog ​​from the Wang family!" Lu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, smiling at Wang Dong and said.
There are many pockmarks on Wang Dong’s face. At first glance, it looks like a scorpion on his face. In addition, Wang Dong is also very poor in character, so he has the nickname of a mangy dog ​​in Qingfeng City. Many people in the back call him that. , Wang Dong also knows his ugly nickname.
Hearing Lu Chen calling himself a mangy dog, Wang Dong's face became cold on the spot. He knew he had this nickname, but there were definitely not many people who dared to call him directly in front of him.
"Lu Chen, dare you scold me, you want to die!" Wang Dongyin's eyes stared at Lu Chen.
"Asshole, dare to scold my young master, I will kill you!"
"Lu Chen, you are just a trash!"
The entourage behind Wang Dong also yelled at Lu Chen with fangs.
Because Lu Chen could not practice, even Wang Dong's entourage dared to bark at Lu Chen like a mad dog.
"Master Lu Chen, bear with me, Wang Dong's reputation is not good." The staff at the counter also whispered to Lu Chen, fearing that Lu Chen would suffer from offending Wang Dong.
Lu Chen nodded to the staff member, and they were kind enough to remind himself, "These two bottles of bone refining potions, let's replace them with gold coins!"
Lu Chen didn't want to pay much attention to people like Wang Dong. In fact, if it weren't for Wang Dong's provocation, Lu Chen would not have looked at Wang Dong more. He is not what he used to be. He used to have nothing to do except refining medicines, and he was relatively idle. But now, Lu Chen needs to seize the time to improve his strength, and entanglement with Wang Dong is a waste of time.
"The medicine is okay, here are sixty gold coins, please take care of it. Mr. Lu, please take it away." The staff checked the medicine and after confirming that there was no problem, he handed the sixty gold coins to Lu Chen.
The bone-refining medicine Lu Chen refined was only of ordinary quality, and the purchase price of medicines like Treasure Pavilion was 30 gold coins a bottle.
"Lu Chen, small waste, do you want to leave?"
Lu Chen took the gold coin and wanted to leave the counter. Wang Dong suddenly blocked Lu Chen's way.
"Wang Dong, what do you want?" Lu Chen looked at Wang Dong impatiently.
If it was before, Lu Chen was still a little worried about losing in Wang Dong's hands, but now Lu Chen has stepped into the martial arts and is a cultivator in the middle stage of bone refining. This Wang Dong, who has cultivated for many years, is only in the middle stage of bone-strengthening. Even if the fight really started, Lu Chen might not be Wang Dong's opponent.
"Huh, what do I want? You scolded me just now, don't you just forget it? If you don't give me an explanation today, don't want to return to your Lu family safely." Wang Dongyin said in a cold tone.
"Hehe, calling you a mangy dog ​​is not scolding you, don't you know that people in Qingfeng City call you a mangy dog?" Lu Chen squinted and smiled.
"Lu Chen, you are really dead. You are a waste person, and dare to challenge me? Others are afraid of your status as a child of the Lu family. I am not afraid of Wang Dong!" Wang Dong looked at Lu Chen angrily. In front of so many people, how could he bear it? He didn't dare to kill Lu Chen, but it was not a big deal to beat Lu Chen. Lu Chen couldn't practice, he didn't have much status in the Lu family.
Around, many people had noticed Lu Chen and Wang Dong, and many of them knew these two people.
When Wang Dong saw the gold coin in Lu Chen's hand, he rolled his eyes and said, "Lu Chen, why don't we go and play Feiqiu? If I beat you, others will call me a bully. Are you a trash who can’t practice? I, Wang Dong, don’t want to bully others. Let’s go play Feiqiu. Don’t you have sixty gold coins now? How about a bet?"
Flying ball is a common game in this world. It is to hold an iron ball and throw it into a hole at a fixed distance. Two people play this game, the closer the flyball is to the hole, the winner is.
In the Jumbo Pavilion, there is a flying ball game venue. Many people will go to the flying ball hall to play this game, and of course they will bet against it.
Lu Chen's heart moved and his eyes narrowed.
The flying ball game can be played by ordinary people. This game has certain skills. However, generally speaking, no matter how skilled the average population is, it cannot be played by cultivators. Because the cultivator has internal power and can control the flying ball to a certain extent, the flying ball thrown by the cultivator is much more accurate than ordinary people.
In Wang Dong's view, Lu Chen would definitely lose when Lu Chen played a flying ball game with him. Sixty gold coins, for a collateral like Wang Dong, is also a good amount of money. To easily win 60 gold coins from Lu Chen, why would Wang Dong not do it?
"Lu Chen, don't you even dare to play a game?" said one of Wang Dong's entourage, rolling his eyes.
"Hmph, Lu Chen, if you dare not play this game with me, then call me grandpa here and I will let you go." Wang Dong glanced around and said with a sneer.
After all, Lu Chen is a descendant of the Lu family. If he were to call him Grandpa Wang Dong in such a public place, it would also cause a lot of shock and greatly help his reputation.
"Since the mangy dog ​​wants to play, how can I not accompany you?" Lu Chen agreed with a smile.
If Lu Chen didn't dare to play a flying ball game with Wang Dong before he stepped into the martial arts, but now, if someone voluntarily gives him gold coins, how can there be no reason to not accept it?
