Emperor's Stand-in: My physique improves a little bit every day

Feeling the calm spirit veins and dantian, Lu Changjing nodded with satisfaction.

Such spirit veins and dantian are basically enough for him to attack with great force, and there will be no danger.

Even if something goes wrong, it can be repaired in time after midnight, so there is no need to be too careful.

Then mobilize more royal qi to bombard the bottleneck.

"Bang... bang... bang... bang..."

The surging royal qi came in waves, and Lu Changjing took other elixirs to replenish qi to avoid exhaustion.

After all, when he was breaking through the barrier, his consumption far exceeded that of other masters, and the two were not comparable.

Even if the foundation is strong, it can't withstand such consumption.

The bottleneck of the high-level master is much stronger than the previous bottleneck, forcing Lu Changjing to mobilize more qi to bombard.

Gradually, the body began to tremble. It seems that the current physique is still a little weak, resulting in the toughness of the spirit vein and dantian not meeting the standard.

He slowed down his attack a little to give his spirit veins and dantian time to recover, lest they burst before the bottleneck dam broke through.

Even so, the force he used to attack was several times more than that of the masters of the same level.

It was a pity that he was not the real Emperor of Daning, otherwise he could call on more resources and treasures, including good things like the blood amber fruit.

More than half an hour later, cracks finally appeared on the bottleneck dam, and he breathed a sigh of relief and put his worries aside.

With hope, he became more stable when he broke through the barrier, almost calm.

After practicing for more than 300 days, experiencing so many dangers, and living in the imperial study for a long time, Lu Changjing's patience and scheming had long been trained.

More than half an hour later, accompanied by bursts of "crackling" sounds, the bottleneck dam finally collapsed, and Lu Changjing's Qi Refining cultivation was successfully broken through.

Feeling the rapidly soaring imperial Qi, Lu Changjing nodded with satisfaction.

Although it is a bit impossible to reach the eighth-level Grandmaster in a short period of time, many things can be put on the agenda after entering the high-level Grandmaster level.

After the promotion of physical and Qi training, the toughness of the spiritual sea has also increased a lot, enough to bear the pressure brought by the strong breakthrough.

The reason why the spiritual training is always put last is naturally because I am worried that when I hit the bottleneck of spiritual training, I might hurt the spiritual sea and affect the soul, making myself a fool.

In that case, who knows what I will do. If I play myself to death before the arrival of midnight, it will be really over.

After stabilizing the realm of cultivation, Lu Changjing began to cast the seventh spiritual vein.

With sufficient resources and treasures, it only took a few days for Lu Changjing to cast the seventh spiritual vein completely, but he did not fill it with true qi for the time being.

Taking advantage of this time, he also adapted to the skyrocketing Qi training, and then it was time to hit the bottleneck of spiritual training.

"Dong... Dong... Dong..."

When attacking the bottleneck of soul refining, Lu Changjing was more careful, not as drastic as when attacking the bottleneck of body refining, and it was also much worse than when attacking the bottleneck of qi refining.

Fortunately, the imperial qi was sharp, and the endurance of the spiritual sea exceeded the endurance of the spiritual veins and dantian. Facing the waves of imperial spiritual power, it soon shook.

With the appearance of cracks, this breakthrough was also half successful.

Not long after, the soul refining cultivation also broke through smoothly and reached the level of seventh-level master.

Since then, Lu Changjing has been ranked among the ranks of all-round high-level masters, cultivating spirit, qi and spirit at the same time, without any shortcomings. As long as the combat skills and secret techniques are improved, it is not difficult to cross the stage to deal with the grandmaster.

Nearly half of his spiritual weapons are top-level spiritual weapons, which further increases Lu Changjing's combat power. He only needs to adapt a little bit to basically be invincible at the level of high-level masters.

Lu Changjing's strength has been firmly ranked in the top ten of the Daning Dynasty.

It took about half a month to consolidate and adapt, and Lu Changjing was able to fully exert all the power of all his combat skills, secret techniques, and spiritual weapons.

He deliberately competed with Zhang Zhaozhong, and only used about 50% of his strength to easily defeat Zhang Zhaozhong, which made Zhang Zhaozhong also astonished.

I didn't expect that His Majesty, who was only a mid-level master, could actually burst out such strength, worthy of being the current emperor.

According to Zhang Zhaozhong, he had fought with a grand master before, and although he was defeated, he was able to escape.

With Lu Changjing's strength, he is definitely comparable to an ordinary grand master.

As for comparing with the Minister of Revenue Jin Longyu, it may be a 50-50 match.

But Jin Longyu's spiritual weapons have reached the top level, and Lu Changjing is still likely to be defeated.

After understanding the strength comparison between the two sides, Lu Changjing stabilized for a while, and at the same time began to wait for the day when Jin Longyu came to report the memorial.

In order to avoid suspicion, Cao Wenzheng also allowed Lu Changjing to meet Jin Longyu, so that even if something went wrong, there would be room for maneuver.

Fortunately, Lu Changjing disguised well and had met Jin Longyu several times before, but he did not notice anything unusual.

After waiting for a few days, Jin Longyu came to report the Ministry of Revenue to Lu Changjing again.

Jin Longyu was wearing a red satin official uniform with golden silk thread inlaid on the collar, which echoed the golden belt around his waist.

The hem of his clothes was embroidered with exquisite flame patterns, and his black hair was tied up with an exquisite headband, which made him look quite handsome and elegant.

This powerful minister of the Ministry of Revenue was once known as the most handsome man in the south when he was young. Even though he is now over 300 years old, he is still quite suave and is regarded as an idol by many self-proclaimed romantic talents.

"Your Majesty, I have reported my memorial. I wonder if Your Majesty has any instructions?"

In a cup of tea, Jin Longyu had reported everything and saluted to Lu Changjing.

Cao Xiuyuan was behind him. Before Jin Longyu came, Lu Changjing asked him to enter the imperial study first and pretended to ask him questions.

Otherwise, it would be a bit strange to rashly let Cao Xiuyuan come in and watch, which would easily arouse Jin Longyu's suspicion.

Lu Changjing nodded: "Jin Qing is diligent in his work, and I am quite relieved, but there is something I need your help with."

"Your Majesty, please speak." Jin Longyu hurriedly said respectfully.

Lu Changjing smiled and said, "I just got a top-level spiritual weapon and want to test its power. I wonder if I can borrow Jin Qing's Soul-Fixing Bell."

The Soul-Fixing Bell is the top-level spiritual defense weapon owned by Jin Longyu. It can effectively protect his spiritual sea and soul, and even has the effect of nourishing his soul.

With Lu Changjing's current strength, if he wants to take down Jin Longyu without any risk, he must remove the defense of the Soul-Fixing Bell, otherwise the chance of success is not high.
