Level Up in Martial World

Lu Zhen looked at the book. He was stunned when he saw that the book had muscular men doing various postures and training.

He looked at the cover of the book.

{Nine Heavens body-refining Art}

When Lu Zhen saw the title, he had a strange expression as he gazed at the sleeping figure of Little Lily.

"If this girl wanted to practise martial arts, she could have asked me," Lu Zhen shook his head. Altough the name sounded like it was a supreme practise which could make you invincible these were actually very common martial arts, which could even be bought in a mortal's market if they were rich enough.

It was a common martial art given to the lowest-ranking servants of the family to make them a little stronger than ordinary people but not too strong that they are out of control.

It basically taught about muscle control and how to increase one's muscles.

Lu Zhen's eyes widened when he thought about the potential effect of the book.

"This could be helpful to me…" Lu Zhen's eyes turned golden as he looked at the book.

[Bodybuilding Practice]

[Grade: Normal Item]

[Remark: A very common martial art that helps one to control their body, build muscle memory, and develop muscles, making an average person stronger than average. It cannot even be considered a low-tier cultivation technique and neither a combat art.]

When Lu Zhen saw this, he shook his head as a single thought appeared on his head "scam" and he started to read the entire book, refusing to believe that there wasn't anything useful for him.

Lu Zhen's eyes turned focused as he read the book carefully, word by word and picture by picture.

"Sigh…" Lu Zhen frowned as he closed the book. There was only one little trick that might be helpful to him; other than that, they were all pretty useless.

"I was hopeful for nothing," Lu Zhen thought as he left the room, taking the book with him.

He wouldn't allow his personal maid to practise these types of low-grade techniques, which were very hard to practise, but the results could be said to be despairing with meagre strength.

The maximum strength the technique could give was comparable to a seasoned veteran fighter from Lu Zhen's previous world, which wasn't bad for his previous world.

However, in this world, even the previous skinny Lu Zhen had that much strength just from consuming high-quality food.

That's how low-grade the technique was.

Meanwhile, Yu Bai sat in his backyard.

"Sigh," Yu Bai sighed as he sat in his seat, reminiscent of Lu Zhen's Vulgrith form.

"We might be able to return to our family soon if the young master grows up," his eyes glinted with a fiery determination as he sat, rocking back and forth in his backyard chair.

He gazed at the sky, savouring his old age.

Suddenly, he heard a knocking sound from the door, which woke him up from his contemplation.

"What is it, Lu Zhao?" Yu Bai had a frown on his face as he asked harshly. The only one who visited him was the little boy who frequently came to his small, humble house.

"Yu Bai, it's me." When Yu Bai heard Lu Zhen's voice, he almost jumped up from his chair and nearly fell off.

"Young… young master, why are you here?" Yu Bai hurriedly ran to open the door for Lu Zhen and let him enter.

"Oh, it's about some herbs that I will be needing, and I need a cultivation technique suitable for a woman." Lu Zhen didn't mind the rude tone Yu Bai had used previously, as he had thought of him as the other person.

"This… Young master, herbs you can take however much you want, but a cultivation technique." Yu Bai had a difficult expression on his face.

"It might be hard for me to get it, and even if I get it, it will definitely be a low-grade one, so..." Yu Bai didn't continue as he just patiently waited.

Lu Zhen had a frown on his face when he heard this.

"Cultivation techniques are really difficult to get in this world." There was an entire building for the combat arts; however, there were almost no such things for cultivation technique.

The method to harness qi was a secret that no family wanted to share easily, and there was always the possibility of it being leaked out, so they were hidden mostly in family vaults, and only those who made a contribution to the family or progressed while practising combat arts could get it.

"But I should be able to get it pretty easily." Lu Zhen thought as he left Yu Bai's place and went towards his mother's palace.

His figure turned blurry as he took a step and reached a hundred steps in moments of time, leaving the servants who saw Lu Zhen feel like he was a ghost as their eyes widened with awe.

He reached his mother's palace in just under a minute, which could be considered insane as it usually takes about an hour for a normal person to run just to reach his mother's palace from Lu Zhen's palace.

If you look at the entire place the Lu family occupied, it could be considered the largest city in Lu Zhen's previous world, so the distance between the palaces was terrifying.

Even the Phoenix City could be compared to a continent of Lu Zhen's previous world; that was how big the Phoenix City was. And most of the things in this world were way bigger in this world; even people's heights were bigger.

"Young master, you may enter." A cold female voice sounded from a feminine figure who wore samurai armour.

"However, you can't enter." She said this as she looked behind Lu Zhen.

"Li nan, stay here; I will be right back." Lu Zhen said as he looked back and entered the palace.

"Son, why did you come at this time? I still haven't prepared my surprise gift for you."

"Is it the demonic cultivation technique?" Lu Zhen said as he looked at her.

"I guess it was already obvious." Mother Lu chuckled as she looked at her son.

"So what are you here for? The cultivation technique should be delivered to me after three days."

"I am here to ask you for a cultivation technique, mother."

"Don't you already have one?"

"I need it for my maid."

"You can't be serious, right?" She smiled as she stared at Lu Zhen.

Lu Zhen just stood, maintaining eye contact as he patiently waited for an answer.

"Alright, I will give it to you." She said with a little proud tone as she searched for something in her chest, which she had at a corner.

"Here I have three, which are suitable." She said as she handed it to him with pride evident in her eyes.

"Here are three books. However, they don't have attributes; they are a common cultivation technique that allows the practitioner to harness attributeless qi." She said this, which made Lu Zhen frown.

Since Lily was Lu Zhen's maid, she needed to have the strength to keep that title, and these cultivation techniques were not enough.

"Wait, I have another one that might be helpful." She said as a small smirk appeared on her face as she took out another book. However, the book had a symbol on it, which made Lu Zhen's eyes widen.
