On the second day of the first month, Lu Jing also received a great gift from the Department of Celestial Observation.

— Two new flying swords, and a full one hundred copper coins from the Department of Celestial Observation.

Lu Jing divided the one hundred copper coins from the Department of Celestial Observation into two, keeping half for himself and giving the other half to Xia Huai, who partnered with him.

As for the two flying swords, Lu Jing didn't stand on ceremony and refined them all.

As a result, the number of flying swords he now possessed reached eight, making him a veritable humanoid sword box.

What Lu Jing had to do next was to continue practicing his swordsmanship, striving to unleash the power of these flying swords as soon as possible.

Not seeking to reach Gu Zhongling's level, at least to be able to control the flying swords as easily as one's own arms, coming and going freely.

He happened to have a month's vacation and didn't need to go out to handle cases, so he could concentrate on cultivation. Therefore, after returning to Beijing to see Gu Caiwei, Lu Jing simply settled down on Green Dragon Mountain.

Every day, he was either practicing swordsmanship and the Fire Scale Armor, or continuing his ginseng cultivation business.

Relying on the daily refreshed dual slots, Lu Jing's cultivation speed was already unimaginable for ordinary people.

Now, with the help of the Bodhi bracelet, his cultivation progress was even more rapid.

In less than half a month, Lake Light had already been nurtured by him from the middle stage of Spiritual Movement to the late stage of Spiritual Movement.

The next morning, Lu Jing sat cross-legged on a large rock in the mountains.

Closing his eyes, he was capturing the movements around him with only his ears.

The next moment, Lake Light suddenly flew out of his sleeve!

Piercing towards a small figure on the snow.

It was a field mouse, quite clever, and felt the danger the moment the flying sword shot out, its fur standing on end! Then it fled to the side!

If it had been Lu Jing before, controlling the flying sword to turn would have been very difficult, and most likely the field mouse would have burrowed back into its hole. But this time, as the field mouse turned, Lake Light also turned half a circle with it.

Accurately chopping off the field mouse's head, and after flying forward two zhang, it suddenly turned its head, drew an elegant arc, and flew back into Lu Jing's sleeve.

Lu Jing opened his eyes, looked at the field mouse's corpse not far away, and nodded with satisfaction.

A full six months had passed since he first started practicing swordsmanship, and only now did he feel like he was becoming a sword immortal.

No wonder the number of sword cultivators has always been so small.

The investment period is indeed too long. In six months, people have learned more than a dozen spells. Moreover, this is only because Lu Jing is exploiting a bug, completely disregarding the consumption of secret energy, that he has practiced to this level in one breath.

If an ordinary person were here, it would take at least seven or eight years, which is really too long to wait.

However, the effect after completion is enough to be exciting.

Lu Jing can't break all spells with one sword for the time being, but just taking someone's head from a hundred zhang away, coming and going without a trace, is enough to make most people, even martial arts masters, unable to defend against it.

Moreover, Lu Jing doesn't only have one flying sword.

It's just that he refined the later flying swords later. Only Mountain Fire is in the early stage of Spiritual Movement, the remaining four are in the Containing Light stage, and the two newly acquired ones are still in the Concentrating Spirit stage.

However, with Lake Light, Lu Jing can already begin to practice the second half of the Clear Light Moon Shadow Sword.

The swordsmanship that Gu Zhongling passed on to him is divided into two parts, the first half talking about nurturing the sword, and the second half about how to control the sword.

The nurturing sword part of different swordsmanship is not very different, but the controlling sword part is varied.

Because ordinary swordsmanship, while pursuing harming the enemy, will also try to avoid the sword holder from being injured.

Take the Wuxiang Sword created by Xia Huai's master, Xiao Mengrou, for example. The twenty-four styles have both offense and defense, and most of the sword moves leave room for timely transition from offense to defense, or from defense to offense.

But flying swords don't need this at all.

As long as it can hit people, there is no need to consider the issue of defense most of the time, which requires the sword moves to be decisive enough.

Lu Jing had previously learned the Clear Light Moon Shadow Sword performed by Gu Zhongling in Another Heaven and Earth.

At that time, he was already a first-class master, but he was still defending very embarrassedly, because the Clear Light Moon Shadow Sword was different from all the swordsmanship he had seen before.

Gu Zhongling's silver sword flew erratically, coming and going without a trace, and was elusive, just like the moon shadow and clear light in the sky, making people unpredictable and traceless.

It is indeed a first-class killing sword technique in this world.

Lu Jing spent another month comprehending and practicing the Clear Light Moon Shadow Sword.

In this month, he also nurtured Mountain Fire to the late stage of Spiritual Movement. At this time, the advantage of practicing multiple flying swords was also reflected. Lu Jing could use two flying swords together in one set of swordsmanship, which saved him the time of practicing the controlling sword section again.

As more and more flying swords were cultivated by him to the late stage of Spiritual Movement, the more time he could save.

Of course, ordinary people don't have time to nurture so many flying swords.

In addition, the outer wall of the earth fort was also fully completed a few days ago. From the outside, it looks like a military fortress. What needs to be built next is the interior houses and buildings.

Lu Jing has been working with the old craftsman from the Wen family these past two days to draw and modify the internal sketches of the manor, planning various areas including residential areas, commercial areas, entertainment areas, barracks, and farming areas.

He also improved the town's drainage system based on his experience in his previous life, and solved the problem of garbage disposal.

In fact, Lu Jing initially just wanted to find a place to grow ginseng, but he didn't expect that as he was doing it, he was about to build a small town.

But in troubled times, it's better to be prepared.

In addition, Lu Jing's old acquaintances, Doctor Jia and the young herbalist Xixin, also successfully arrived in Juxian under the escort of the Tianma Escort Agency and were invited into the earth fort by Lu Jing.

As a result, there is finally a proper doctor in the new manor, so people don't have to worry about any headaches or fevers anymore.

However, in recent days, Lu Jing's thoughts have not been on Green Dragon Mountain.

Counting the time, it has been about a month and a half since he sent the black knife. The one-month vacation that Guo Shouhuai promised him has long passed, and it has been more than half a month.

With the current shortage of manpower in the Department of Celestial Observation and Guo Shouhuai's consistent black heart, he hasn't urged Supervisor Lu to resume work early, which makes Lu Jing a little unaccustomed to it.

It wasn't until two days later that he received another letter from the Department of Celestial Observation, and the content of this letter surprised him greatly.
