After arranging these trivial matters to Zhu Qian, Meng Zhou also sent a summons to Song Yang.

At the celebration that day, he exchanged some information with Cao Lie, Song Yang and others, which naturally included each other's mana aura to facilitate everyone's communication with each other.

Not long after, Song Yang sent a reply. Not only did he agree to his arrangement, but he also said that if he could use the Professionals Association in the future, he could just say hello.

To him, Zhu Qian's arrangements were just a trivial matter.

What's more, members of professional associations inherently have a high degree of freedom and autonomy.

Now, as everyone becomes more and more familiar with the rules of professional associations, there have been many more "name members".

For example, Cao Lie was not only a representative arranged by the Lord of Jade Lake City to come to Sanchuan Plain, but he was also a second-level member of the Alchemist Branch.

There are many such situations.

Therefore, even if Meng Zhou didn't say hello to him, there would be no problem.

Song Yang, who felt respected, also had a very good attitude and mentioned another incident by the way.

Because of the "trouble" in Yuqiao on the day of the celebration, Cao Lie, Song Yang and others felt that the city defense level of Sanchuan City was too low.

The upgrading of city defense and the reconstruction of Sanchuan City were discussed on the spot.

During this period, everything in Sanchuan City seemed to be business as usual. In fact, many large gatherings and small gatherings were held, led by the Sanchuan Association, the Blue Blood Army, the Professionals Association, the Lord's Palace of Jade Lake City, and a large number of small shareholders.

The planning and design of the new city also gradually took shape through such frequent meetings and exchanges.

Song Yang took this opportunity to ask for his opinion and asked him if he had any ideas.

Regarding this matter, both President Pan, Yao Gu, Tu Baiyao and others have communicated with him.

The other monks are very enthusiastic about this, and not to mention the real benefits involved, just leaving their own traces in such a big project is also a very exciting thing.

But Meng Zhou had no interest in participating. He just said, "Don't let me demolish the cave and rebuild it."

…

After dealing with these trivial matters, Meng Zhou continued to immerse himself in the practice of "distraction and separation of the soul".

On October 26th, "Distracted Mind and Soul" completed the accumulation of Dacheng state and advanced to the master level.

"Master of distraction and soul separation 0/120,000"

This improvement further improved Meng Zhou's proficiency.

You can complete one hundred refinements every day and gain five thousand experience points.

On the other hand, the intelligence and stability of the "spirit clone" are getting higher and higher.

As he continued to practice and improve, Meng Zhou's understanding of this secret technique became more and more profound.

Meng Zhou discovered a shortcoming of this secret technique, which can also be said to be a characteristic.

This is determined by the nature of its composition.

The skeleton of this secret technique is purely composed of the ownerless divine will collected from the third-order Lihen statue.

In the process of Meng Zhou's refining and breaking up again and again, this masterless divine will was also tempered to become more and more pure.

Although it can serve as the main skeleton of the "divine soul clone", it is fundamentally different from the real soul.

Therefore, those attacks that directly target the soul are basically ineffective against it.

In other words, this "divine soul clone" can act as a divine soul and do everything a divine soul can do, but it can also avoid divine soul attacks.

However, not all soul attacks can be avoided. For example, if the secret method that directly targets thoughts and emotions was encountered during the calamity that day, this "soul clone" would be very vulnerable.

Because the core of this "spiritual clone" is the various thoughts injected into it by the cultivator.

All the actions of the "spirit clone" are also determined by these thoughts, and they do not really possess "intelligence".

And those secret techniques that target emotions attack the human mind.

The thoughts that leave the main body and are injected into the "spiritual clone" are like rootless duckweeds.

If you use this kind of secret method to target the "spiritual clone", it will be a natural defeat, and the effect is comparable to using holy light to drive away evil spirits.

And as the secret technique of "distracting the mind and separating the soul" reached the master level, Meng Zhou discovered that there was a deeper integration between those thoughts and the ownerless divine will, and it was no longer a simple "pieced together and embedded".

Rather, it is like a seed sprouting and taking root in the soil. With a deeper connection, the thoughts injected into it also become more stable.

"If you encounter another mysterious attack on the human mind, you will no longer be defenseless."

…

One month later, November 25th.

"Distracting the mind and leaving the soul" completes the accumulation of the master level and advances to the grandmaster level.

After completing this upgrade, the biggest change is that the stability of the infused thoughts in Wushu's will has been further improved.

If we talk about the master level, it is just grass taking root in the soil.

Now that he has been promoted to the master level, he has become a big tree firmly rooted in the earth.

Under this situation, most of the secret techniques that target the thoughts of the human mind will no longer have the slightest effect on it.

Those secret techniques, like the passing strong wind, may easily blow away the duckweeds and break the grass, but they are basically powerless against the big trees.

At most, the "big tree" will be allowed to dance violently in the strong wind. It is not an easy task to uproot or break it.

In addition, proficiency has also been further improved, and the time for one refinement has become shorter.

However, the experience gained every day has not increased because of this, and is still 5,000 points.

This is the limit of what he can do at the moment.

It's not the limit of proficiency, but the limit of mental strength.

Every time a secret technique is refined, thoughts are injected, and "intelligence" is given to the "spiritual clone", it will consume a lot of his mental energy.

Once mental exertion is excessive, the entire person's state will become very bad.

For this reason, Meng Zhou did not continue to increase the dosage and just maintained the daily experience gain of 5,000 points.

In the spare time, in order to restore his condition, he would not continue with cultivation matters, but would do some relaxing things.

Because Bai Zhi and Zhu Qian were there, it was quite leisurely.

Occasionally, Meng Zhou would pay attention to the situation at Zhuang Tianzhuang. It is worth mentioning that every time the secret method of "distracting the mind and separating the soul" is improved, he will upgrade the "spirit clone" integrated into the Earth Spirit Lotus clone.

.

As the level of the secret technique continued to improve, he became more and more able to master the Earth Spirit Lotus clone dozens of miles away.

In such a peaceful daily life, time has come to the end of the year unknowingly.

It is worth mentioning that during the retreat in early November, the Black Turtle Bearing Tablet True Skill completed the accumulation of the entry stage and advanced to the state of initial success.

After the retreat in early December, the third-level Spring Water Sutra has basically completed the accumulation of the initial stage. In the next retreat, the Spring Water Sutra will advance to the minor stage.

"Spring Water Meridian first turns into 14,700/15,000"

…

The fifth day of the first lunar month, afternoon.

The cultivation progress is 45+720, and the first level of elixir formation is 3135/10,000;

The third-level Spring Water Sutra is 300+2400, and the small success is 2,400/30,000;

Black Turtle Bearing Monument's real skill is 2700, initial success is 05700/15000.

…

Quietly, Meng Zhou, who was already sixty years old, ended this retreat.

Because in this retreat, the Chun Shui Sutra completed the accumulation of the initial stage of formation and advanced to the state of small completion.

There have been great changes in all aspects, and the progress of cultivation has also been greatly improved.

In addition, because this retreat coincides with the beginning of the new year, the output of Qinglian Sword Essence is also beyond normal.

Before this retreat, Meng Zhou had accumulated sixty-one drops of Green Lotus Sword Essence, and during this retreat alone, Meng Zhou had gained ten drops.

Although the number is much higher than usual, if you only look at the increase, it can be clearly seen that the special bonus effect that this kind of retreat can bring to you at the turn of the old and new every year is compared to that of building

On the contrary, it weakened a bit during the basic period.

After coming out of seclusion, Meng Zhou got used to it a little, and then continued his practice of "distracting the mind and leaving the soul".

At this moment, after the accumulation at the end of November and December last year, the accumulation of this secret technique at the master level has been mostly completed.

On the twenty-fourth day of the first lunar month, the secret technique of distracting the mind and separating the soul has completely completed the accumulation of the master level and reached perfection.

This is the second level three skill that Meng Zhou has cultivated to a perfect level after "All Phenomenon Deduction".

As this skill advanced from the master level to the perfect level, Meng Zhou suddenly discovered that he could perfectly integrate the thoughts infused into the Wuzhu Divine Will with the Wuzhu Divine Will, so that there is me in you, you in me, and nothing.

degree to each other.

The loopholes and shortcomings that originally existed have completely disappeared after this change.

From then on, this "soul clone" became invulnerable at the level of the soul.
