Chapter 846: Unlocking the Treasure Chest
With all the necessary cultivation methods, an ideal environment, and supporting resources, Lu HaiKong's cultivation progress could be described as smooth sailing.
Although the new 'Purple Qi Dragon Ascension Technique' required starting from scratch, with all the preparations in place, Lu HaiKong's progress was remarkably swift. In just a few days, he managed to cultivate the technique to the 7th level.
During his cultivation, Lu HaiKong also discovered that for some reason, the orb in his dantian remained unusually calm, causing no trouble for him. In this situation, Lu HaiKong was able to smoothly complete his cultivation.
The new 'Purple Qi Dragon Ascension Technique' lived up to its reputation as a quasi-mythical cultivation method. The power Lu HaiKong cultivated was not only greater in quantity but also superior in quality compared to before.
Originally, Lu HaiKong planned to cultivate the technique to the 8th level, but with the 7th level, he found it sufficient to handle the current situation. The 7th level of the technique had already caused Lu HaiKong's dantian to swell once more, filling the emptiness he felt after consuming the wine.
At this point, Lu HaiKong's inner power and the orb in his dantian reached another equilibrium. Advancing further in his cultivation would disrupt this balance, which was not what Lu HaiKong desired.
Moreover, this situation was ideal for Lu HaiKong. Due to the wine's effect and the presence of the little ancestor, Lu HaiKong's foundation remained solid, and he was pleased with this outcome.
Additionally, Lu HaiKong had already consumed the wine's power, so he seized the opportunity to pause his cultivation.
The two little ancestors had been waiting outside the cultivation room. As soon as Lu HaiKong opened the door, the two little girls rushed towards him.
Seeing their eager eyes, Lu HaiKong's heart warmed, and he happily greeted them. However, these girls underestimated the little ancestors, and Lu HaiKong soon realized they weren't as well-behaved as he imagined.
It took Lu HaiKong considerable effort to calm the clingy girls. After a bath, he took the two little ones out, heading towards the town hall.
Just as Lu HaiKong was about to leave with the girls, he noticed a timid gaze. Turning back, he saw a shy little girl looking at him with longing. It was then that Lu HaiKong remembered the little Lolita.
After noticing Cai Wenji, Lu HaiKong's group gained another member.
With the three little girls, Lu HaiKong didn't intend to take them out for fun. He directly brought them to the town hall.
In reality, although Lu HaiKong brought the three girls with him, he had no intention of letting them play. He casually tossed them aside and went to meet Xi Zhi and his team.
Fortunately, the three girls didn't plan to play either. Children are easily satisfied, and they were content just following Lu HaiKong around.
At the town hall, in Xi Zhi and his team's office, Lu HaiKong glanced outside, where the arrival of the little Lolitas caused a scene of chaos and laughter. He smiled at the sight, then turned his attention back to Xi Zhi, "What's the situation in Luoyang?"
"The intelligence network in Luoyang has been re-established. According to the feedback, Dong Zhuo currently controls the Southern Army and his original Xiliang Iron Cavalry, stabilizing the situation in Luoyang," Xi Zhi said, handing Lu HaiKong a piece of intelligence from their recently re-established network.
After carefully reading the intelligence, Lu HaiKong's lips curved upwards, "It seems my timing is perfect.
"Pay attention to Luoyang and immediately contact the Third Princess if she appears. Also, send someone to urge Dong Zhuo to fulfill his promises to me."
"Understood. I'll send someone to handle it immediately," Xi Zhi nodded.
"Also, how's the situation with the Earth Branch?" Lu HaiKong asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.
"It's progressing smoothly."
"Smooth progress? That's excellent!"
Lu HaiKong didn't intend to delve deeper into the matter. This situation didn't require his attention, as the Earth Branch affair was well in hand. With such a luxurious team in place, Lu HaiKong didn't need to worry about anything.
Subsequently, Lu HaiKong chatted with Xi Zhi, mainly discussing intelligence and work-related matters. Aside from these topics, they also talked about the two youths, Guo Jia and the other boy named A Fu.
Lu HaiKong held Guo Jia, the renowned genius and top strategist of the Three Kingdoms, in high regard.
According to Lu HaiKong's suggestion, he wanted Xun Yu to take Guo Jia under his wing first. However, Xi Zhi offered a different suggestion. He advised Lu HaiKong to send Guo Jia and A Fu to the Fire Brigade for a period of time.
Title: The Generous Gift
Lu HaiKong, known for his carefree attitude and tendency to delegate tasks, had been busy with various responsibilities. Despite his preference for staying hands-off, he still took the time to understand the affairs of his territory.
As the decision-maker for many significant matters, Lu HaiKong decided to address these issues personally. With the upcoming [Alliance Mission], he wanted to ensure his territory was well-prepared.
Lu HaiKong, despite his laid-back demeanor, was swamped with work. Just the handover of various items and decisions took several days.
After completing those tasks, Lu HaiKong returned to the training ground in Beifeng. This place had become his go-to spot for opening treasure chests. He had opened countless chests here, accumulating an impressive collection.
This time, as he opened the chests, something unusual happened. The three little lolitas, who had been following him, were startled by the sudden appearance of four items.
Lu HaiKong, slightly exasperated, couldn't refuse them. He took the three girls along, not knowing what else to do.
It had been a while since Lu HaiKong opened treasure chests. The three girls, captivated by the items, each focused on one.
Yue'er, captivated by a bottle of wine, exclaimed, "Brother is giving us gifts!" She and Wang Mei, both excited, rushed forward.
Lu HaiKong, seeing their enthusiasm, smiled and handed over the ancient zither to Cai Wenji, who hesitated.
The zither, a legendary item, was resistant to Lu HaiKong's touch. But when he passed it to Cai Wenji, the zither calmed down.
Unbothered by this, Lu HaiKong casually put away the last legendary item, a [System Building Upgrade Order], which he already had two of.
In summary, the legendary-level treasure chest haul was impressive. Lu HaiKong, already anticipating the mythical-level chests, was eager for more.
