Just Engaged, the Abandoned Comeback System Arrived

Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Seven Kills Gathering Yuan, Azure Dragon Minor Mastery

With a ”gentle” pull from Lu Yuan, a brilliant red light flared across the zither, casting a crimson halo over the surroundings. The Fire Attribute runes carved into its surface activated, condensing the Phoenix Flame...

*HUM!*

As Lu Yuan released his grip, the string snapped back. The zither vibrated, emitting a strange power that caused the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to churn and violently boil over. It wasn’t just pure Primordial Qi; there was also the Power of Heaven and Earth Daoist Skill, triggered by the runes and magic arrays.

This was the foundational power of the world! Everything interacted and culminated in a single note laced with a sharp, murderous intent.

Lu Yuan pinched a blue string next. The zither shifted once more. Though there was no fiery response this time, a blue light flowed across the instrument. All the Water Attribute Primordial Qi above the river’s surface was stimulated and activated, reacting and colliding with the previously manifested Fire Attribute Primordial Qi...

The Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within dozens of meters was completely churned up, while the energy within hundreds of meters was affected.

With all ten of his fingers continuously plucking the strings, water and fire converged over the river, causing the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to erupt into absolute chaos. The colliding energies constantly shifted to spawn bizarre phenomena, producing a deadly melody. At the same time, they continuously accumulated power, condensing a majestic momentum and gathering more and more Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi...

”Drawing in so much Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi... with just a zither... this...” Lu Ming was already dumbfounded.

He had been in the Seventh Grade for over a decade, yet the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi he could draw and condense at any one time spanned barely a dozen meters, at most thirty or forty. Meanwhile, Lu Yuan was only at the Eighth Grade Peak, yet he could already manipulate an area spanning hundreds of meters relying solely on a zither.

This had already surpassed the Seventh Grade Peak; even a Sixth Grade Qi Control Martial Artist might not be able to match it.

”Junior Brother is a prodigy of the Sound Dao!” Yan Qing sighed in awe.

Though there was the power of the Profound Weapon, it was mostly due to his musical mastery; Lu Yuan had already comprehended and cultivated the Seven Kills Order to great completion. Even if Yan Qing used a Profound Weapon right now, he wouldn’t be able to trigger Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi beyond forty meters. The Sound Dao was truly extraordinary.

”This kid... is truly remarkable!” Song Yumeng praised.

Acting as a one-man array and channeling the momentum alone. This was the mark of mastering a killing tune, something only a supreme talent could achieve. It was unbelievable and completely exceeded her expectations.

”You can start playing to coordinate with him now,” she said.

Lin Siyao immediately began to play her zither in response. She harmonized with his notes, amplifying the reverberations of Lu Yuan’s music and expanding his control over the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

The moment she started, Su Wan also sprang into action. Her harmony was just as perfect, showcasing a tacit understanding.

With the addition of both their zithers, Lu Yuan’s music instantly surged in power. Its sphere of influence expanded, pushing the manipulation of Primordial Qi even further. Simultaneously, the soundwaves radiated toward the two women, perfectly fusing together.

The three of them formed a Three Talents Array. Lu Yuan occupied the Celestial Position, Lin Siyao took the Earth Position, and Su Wan held the Human Position. The red and blue lights suddenly grew much brighter, sweeping across more than half the bay.

Both Su Wan and Lin Siyao received feedback from their zither arts. This was especially true for Su Wan, whose seven notes perfectly aligned with the seven kills. Her body seemed to react and harmonize on instinct; her fingers moved before her conscious thought even caught up.

It was an incredibly magical experience. She felt as though she had grasped a sliver of the true essence behind the music of heaven and earth. At the same time, her Seven-Sound Mysterious Body was partially unlocked.

Lin Siyao possessed the Profound Yin Body, and Profound Yin was inherently more compatible with water. Furthermore, since she had contracted the Black Water Profound Snake, she was even more sensitive to it. Water and the zither clearly resonated deeply with one another. Lin Siyao was already incredibly intelligent with exceptional comprehension skills. By being near the water, she gained a far deeper understanding of the Profound Origin Water. Her zither skills improved dramatically, allowing her to better harmonize the Profound Yin Qi within her body.

Song Yumeng cast a glance over and nodded in satisfaction. Her daughter’s talent had never disappointed her.

”What is he trying to do?” Wei Huiling stared at the river in disbelief.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t understand the changes in the Primordial Qi above the river; she just couldn’t believe it. Her son was only at the Eighth Grade Peak. Why was he creating such a massive commotion? Was this really her son? Wouldn’t this be dangerous?

”Let’s wait and see,” Lu Ming said, his expression grave. He had a few guesses but didn’t dare to be certain. ”He started this, so he should know what he’s doing.”

”Don’t worry, Junior Brother is absolutely confident,” Yan Qing chimed in.

From the looks of it, everything was going smoothly without any issues. However, the sheer scale of the disturbance was too massive, and the condensed Primordial Qi was far too dense. Would his junior brother really be able to control it?

Wei Huiling had no choice but to watch quietly.

*STRUM STRUM STRUM*

As Lu Yuan’s melody changed, the Primordial Qi over the river shifted alongside it. He hadn’t gathered all this Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi for combat, but to assist in his breakthrough. Thus, he began to reel it in and condense it.

Because his Seven Kills Order had reached perfection, manipulating this Primordial Qi with his zither was effortless. However, it wasn’t easy!

The backlash from the Primordial Qi on the zither was still far too strong for his current level. The Elemental Fire Power inflicted burns on his hands that his True Gang was entirely incapable of blocking, while the Power of Elemental Water and Ice threatened to inflict frostbite. Maintaining such precise control required a tremendous amount of effort.

Following the shifting strings, the two Primordial Qi attributes of water and fire condensed above Lu Yuan’s head. They intertwined, gradually forming a slowly rotating Tai Chi Double Fish. Simultaneously, a unique Negative Pressure Field formed around him.

With a flick of Lu Yuan’s fingers, the intertwined Water and Fire Power immediately plunged downwards, accelerating as they rushed straight toward his Baihui acupoint. At the same time, the vitality and True Gang throughout his body boiled, surging upwards to meet it.

*BOOM!*

Lu Yuan’s crown Baihui acupoint burst open.

The water and fire Primordial Qi poured in endlessly. Their intertwined state neutralized their extreme opposing attributes, turning relatively gentle as they rapidly fused with his True Gang to form True Essence.

True Essence was far purer, more profound, and more powerful than True Gang. It could roam freely throughout the body to open, enter, develop, and nourish the acupoints.

The Cyan Dragon Technique required refining 248 acupoints, but everything had an order. Just like the human body—what was most important? The bones! The skeleton!

The same applied to this Profound Skill! For the Cyan Dragon Technique, the first thing that needed to be developed and resolved was the ”Dragon Bone”!

Only by unblocking and developing all the acupoints located around the Dragon Bone to complete its foundational structure could one possess Dragon Power. This marked the minor completion of the Cyan Dragon Technique.

It wasn’t the standard thirty-six acupoints, but eighty-three. That required 10,000 experience points. Lu Yuan didn’t have enough right now, so he had to make some compromises. Bones varied in size and importance, from the spine down to the little toes. Therefore, Lu Yuan made the appropriate trade-offs...

[Your Dao Companion Su Wan has gained insights in her cultivation. You receive a tenfold feedback. 3,000 experience points have been credited.]

Lu Yuan read the notification, feeling a sudden urge to pull Su Wan in and kiss her on the head. Talk about perfect timing! This was enough! With his mind at ease, Lu Yuan fully committed to developing the acupoints...

”There’s no need for me to intervene.” On the shore, Song Yumeng relaxed completely.

She had already prepared to step in, but it seemed unnecessary now. Lu Yuan’s talent had exceeded her expectations, shocking and surprising her once again. He truly lived up to the title of a supreme talent!

Moreover...

”He’s already absorbed quite a bit of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, yet he’s still absorbing more. Just how many acupoints is he planning to develop at once? How many can he clear out?” Song Yumeng watched with anticipation and astonishment.

Refining acupoints in the Seventh Grade was the most important and time-consuming step. Many geniuses wasted significant amounts of time at this stage. Her Brother Feng, the Martial Arts Saint Body Lin Qingfeng, had spent a full eleven years in the Seventh Grade. Of course, Lin Qingfeng cultivated a unique Cultivation Technique—a Supreme Divine Skill that opened over three hundred acupoints, which was far beyond comparison with other Profound Skills and Martial Artists.

Finally...

*ROAR!*

Lu Yuan finished his absorption, and the surrounding red and blue Primordial Light dissipated. Immediately after, a brilliant cyan light erupted from his body. The phantom of a cyan dragon flickered in and out of existence as the sound of a dragon’s roar seemingly echoed.

The Cyan Dragon Technique had reached minor completion!
