Even the Five Poison Sect within the Dongting Prefecture, and the tens of thousands of Miao Rebel Army they possessed, were not something that Lu Yuan could deal with.

“So, my strength is still not enough.”

After realizing his own weakness again, Lu Yuan took a deep breath, suppressed the agitation in his heart, put down the news, returned to the quiet room, and resumed his closed-door training.

Since no amount of struggling could change the situation, he simply stopped bothering with these annoying matters.

When the sky falls, tall men will hold it up.

The land and rivers of Da Yue were naturally the concerns of Emperor Hongdao and the court officials and nobles.

He was just a local small official, a mere worker, so why should he worry for his boss?

With a clear understanding of himself, Lu Yuan once again became a diligent cultivator.

He has now converted six of his meridians, and with a little more effort, he hopes to complete the remaining six normal meridians within two months.

After that, he can try to cultivate the more difficult bizarre meridians.

Apart from cultivating the technique, he also has to practice the Red Sun Palm skill, Red Sun Finger skill, and Red Sun Sword skill without fail.

For the past two months, in addition to cultivating the mental technique, Lu Yuan has also spent two hours every day practicing these three external techniques.

Upon actual practice, he has made quite a nice progress.

With his current realm, particularly because he had previously perfected the Cloud Palm skill, he had a solid foundation in palm techniques.

So this time, Lu Yuan deliberately chose to practice the Red Sun Palm skill, and with the help of that experience, he quickly mastered this top-notch palm technique.

In just two short months.

Although he dared not say that he had achieved great success in palm techniques, he had learned some basic moves of this technique with a proper form.

He couldn’t claim to be extremely formidable, but the six meridians he has already converted can now be used in conjunction with the techniques in a smooth and complete manner.

However, the deeper he went into the Red Sun Palm skill, the more profound and complicated it became. The more meridians he needed to coordinate at the later stages, the more knowledge and skills he needed to master, which would make practicing it no longer as easy as it is now.

Completing this set of palm skills may take even longer than completing the Red Sun Mental Technique, and it would be normal to spend three to five years, or even longer, practicing it.

If he wants to fully complete the remaining two skill sets, Finger and Sword techniques, the time required might be counted in decades.

Fortunately, if Lu Yuan lacks any other talent, he is adept at survival.

This amount of time is not a problem for him; he can just wait patiently.

As long as he has a goal to progress and advance, his mentality towards improving his strength is quite balanced.

After all, his original plan was to recruit and train his own army to seize the top-notch martial arts techniques from the first-rate sects.

Now that he has obtained these techniques, he naturally is no longer in a hurry.

Of course.

If he were to complete the Red Sun Divine Skill and reach the realm limit again, he would naturally start preparing again, seeking opportunities to break through to the Innate level.

However, by that time, he wouldn’t dare to rob an Innate Sect.

The gap between an Innate Grandmaster and a first-class expert is still quite significant.

Lu Yuan just wants to improve his realm, not seek death.

“So I guess by that time, I’ll probably have to choose to slowly study and create it on my own, relying on time to develop an Innate technique, right?” Thinking this way in his heart, he didn’t feel any discouragement.

Just like the old saying, he is now very “Buddhist”.

While Lu Yuan was leisurely cultivating on his side, experiencing the transformation of the technique, and feeling the power of the new Red Sun Inner Strength, he was spending his days in pleasantness.

However, while he was enjoying himself.

But the people outside were not having a good time.

After receiving the news that the Army of Pacifying Shu had been disastrously defeated, the court waited for half a month. After making sure that the Liang people did not rise again and had indeed retreated their troops.

They immediately dispatched 150,000 troops from the Northern Border to rush to Xichuan County to aid the heavily-damaged Army of Pacifying Shu.

At the same time, in other local jurisdictions, many ambitious men saw the decline of the court and couldn’t help but stand up and rebel.

But these guys, at best, were just ordinary first-class forces and did not have any top-notch or even Innate strength involved.

That’s why they rebelled and emerged, only to be directly suppressed and annihilated by the local forces gathered by the county government.

Later, the court might have seen its own weakness and slowly changed its original policy.

According to the latest news from the Capital.

It is said that Emperor Hongdao has already sent officials and envoys to visit the Innate Sect of White Phoenix Temple in Linhai County, where the capital is located. It is said that they intend to invite the Innate Grandmaster of this temple, Jihui the Sacred Monk, to enter the capital and preach Buddhism.

But this is just the official statement.

In private, it is rumored in both the official and Jianghu that the court may want to confer Jihui the title of National Protector Master and seek the help of the power behind him and the White Phoenix Temple to help the court stabilize the increasingly chaotic world.

If this matter succeeds, it is possible that the court’s envoys will visit the Innate sects such as the Liuyang Sect in Yuzhang County and the Nanhai Sect in South Sea Prefecture.

In the end, the court may end up having several National Protector Masters.

In times of crisis, rather than relying on wise ministers and good generals to save the country, they seek help from Jianghu vagrants and ordained experts and confer generous titles on them.

This move indeed has the signs of a country on the brink of collapse and the emergence of monsters.

As for where Da Yue will end up, let’s wait and see.

When it comes to such news, Lu Yuan could only sigh a few times when he was taking a break to drink tea and then ignore it.

No matter how chaotic the world is or how the court is filled with demons running wild, as long as Shaoyang Prefecture is stable, and there are over ten thousand soldiers under his command, none of this matters to him even if the sky collapses.

However, this life of watching the rise and fall of the world and being carefree had to come to an end after only three more months.

In the middle of the twelfth lunar month.

Just when the New Year was approaching, after more than three months of hard work, Lu Yuan finally completed the Red Sun Mental Technique’s twelve normal meridians and even transformed one bizarre meridian, successfully cultivating this mental technique to a first-class realm.

As of now, although there are still two bizarre meridians left to be transformed, this technique alone has brought him back to the first-class realm.

However, just at that moment, even before Lu Yuan could rejoice over the major breakthrough in his mental technique’s transformation, bad news arrived.

“The Seven Star Sect in Luyang Prefecture has rebelled and has now risen up with 30,000 troops, capturing Luyang City. At this moment, they are leading their army northward, and their troops are directly attacking Hengyang Prefecture City.

The prefect over there has already sent an order, asking you to lead the troops to Hengyang Prefecture immediately and suppress this rebellion.”

Outside the city barracks, Prefect Cui Changqing personally rushed over and pulled out the leisurely and closed-door training Lu Yuan, saying with a grave expression..
