All conjectures must be tested in practice before conclusions can be drawn.

Zheng Qiu no longer hesitated, and immediately recited silently in his heart, letting his spiritual thoughts come into contact with the green figure in his mind.

Sure enough, this time the "wood spirit" that suddenly became obedient responded to his thoughts and released more intense power, making him feel as energetic as chicken blood.

"Consolidate, consolidate these powers!"

Zheng Qiu continued to recite silently, trying to condense the "wood spirit" power scattered throughout his body and compress it into his meridians.

The vital force shrank bit by bit, and dim bands of light began to glow on his limbs.

The light band is light green and appears completely through the clothes. It seems that the fabric of the clothes has no blocking effect on these bright lights.

Before Zheng Qiu could be happy, the "wood spirit" in his mind seemed tired of being given orders. After shaking for a moment, he stopped imitating Zheng Qiu's movements and hid in the depths of his mind again.

And the remaining power in the body, because it has lost its source, cannot continue to condense, and is frozen between the meridians and flesh and blood.

Zheng Qiu opened his eyes and looked down at his limbs. The divine veins of heaven and earth became increasingly dim and finally disappeared.

He failed to use the "Wood Spirit" to break through to the realm of divine transformation. He didn't know why the "Wood Spirit" was disobedient again and seemed to have a bad temper.

Zheng Qiu touched his chin and thought: "The power of the wood spirit can indeed be used as the power of heaven and earth to break through the divine realm, but it is still not very obedient.

If you want to truly break through to the divine realm, you must completely tame the wood spirit."

He stood up, patted the dust on his robe, and prepared to let the little green insect shrink to an inch and take him back to the deserted city.

Before casting the spell, the little green insect suggested: "Boss, since you can now feel the power of heaven and earth, why don't you try to feel the distance.

Once you memorize the formula, you can also use it to shrink into an inch."

Zheng Qiu nodded and said: "Good suggestion. From now on, I will practice sensing the power of heaven and earth in the distance every day, and try to prepare the prerequisites for the spell as soon as possible."

As he was talking, an illusion began to appear in front of his eyes, which was a secluded alley in the city.

Soon, the shrinking spell was prepared, and Zheng Qiu took a step forward and disappeared on the top of the desolate stone mountain.

Returning to the Great Wilderness Pill Supermarket, he went into the room to inquire about information about the medicinal materials. Since he had broken through the Qi Yao realm, he had to have attack methods that matched this realm.

The plant seeds such as Epilepsy Grass, White-leaf Choke Orchid, and Slippery Moss on hand now are no longer able to cope with high-level practitioners. Only when hidden weapons are used unexpectedly can some effects be achieved.

However, using Kung Fu to control the flames generated by the burning of Fugui Orchid is a complete war of attrition against the enemy, but it cannot be consumed slowly at any time.

He is in urgent need of a medicinal material or plant with strong offensive capabilities, preferably one that can defeat the enemy with one blow.

But such a powerful thing was not easy to find. He searched through the books and scrolls stored in the room, but found nothing.

Since that day when he raised the challenge of City Lord, the business of the elixir supermarket has been getting worse and worse.

People in the city are waiting and watching, fearing that if they come to the supermarket to buy medicinal materials at this time, they will be labeled as complicit by the city lord.

Of course, Zheng Qiu didn't pay attention to these things. In order to prevent Lin Minghao from participating in the duel on his behalf, he was fully prepared.

Let Kanchi collect all the income from the supermarket, and then live with the Hongming brothers at the foot of the mountain at Qianyunzong Station.

They were also asked to ask about the takeoff and landing time of the Tianzhou. If the situation went bad, they would take the money and leave by Tianzhou.

Yunyou and Zheng Zhisong moved into the inn as Qianyun Sect and waited for the situation to develop. If Lin Minghao did not show up, they would quickly leave the wilderness in a sky boat.

As for the Lisha Treasure Hunting Team, Zheng Qiu originally wanted them to disband for four to five days, and wait until the limelight had passed before deciding whether to regroup.

However, Qing Youcai and Meng Tiansha disagreed. They felt that Lin Minghao would definitely come out to deal with An Huming after he recovered, and insisted that they should perform well at this time.

So the treasure hunting team became Zheng Qiu's only worry.

In the early morning of the third day, the sky was still dark and lightless. Zheng Qiu had no intention of resting and kept sitting in the room waiting.

The time spent waiting for someone always passed very slowly, and every moment was excruciating. When the light of dawn lit up on the horizon, a guard on duty at the gate ran up to report.

"Boss Zheng, there is someone I want to see."

Zheng Qiu immediately stood up from his seat: "How many people are there?"

"one person."

"one person?"

Zheng Qiu was confused. There should be three people, including the city lord, Lin Zou, and Granny Tang. How could there be only one?

But he still went downstairs to receive him in person.

"Boss Zheng, good morning!" The person seeking to see him was wrapped up tightly, but his voice was very familiar. It was Lin Zou.

Zheng Qiu glanced outside the gate and asked, "Why are you the only one and where are the other two?"

"Boss Zheng, don't worry, the other two will be here soon. I'm here first so that Boss Zheng can make preparations."

"What preparations?"

Lin Zou took off his luggage from his back and took out a set of gray-brown robes and a black turban.

"Boss Zheng, since you are going to cheat and change things, you must wear the same clothes. Come on, this is what the adult is wearing today. You can change into it."

Lin Zou handed the clothes to Zheng Qiu, and did not forget to add: "You are not tall enough, remember to stand on double stilts."

Seeing Lin Zou's actions, Zheng Qiu felt a little relieved. It seemed that the city lord really did not break his promise and would really come to take part in the duel in his place.

He took the clothes and ran back to the room to change them. Then he roughly estimated the height of the city lord and took two four-inch thick wooden blocks and tied them to the bottom of his shoes.

Then he ran back to the lobby on the first floor and stood by the door waiting for the arrival of the city lord with Lin Zou.

Lin Zou squinted his eyes and boasted to Zheng Qiu from time to time that the city lord was wise and mighty, kept his promises, and always thought of the great wilderness.

I hope Zheng Qiu can work with the city lord and contribute to the glory of Dahuang.

Lin Zou spoke vividly, describing the city lord as a glorious and great hero. Zheng Qiu was stunned for a moment, wondering whether the city lord was really that good or if Lin Zou was flattering him.

The sky continued to get brighter, and the time for the duel between the city lords was getting closer and closer. Two long-awaited figures finally appeared at the end of the street, walking straight to the elixir supermarket.

Zheng Qiu saw it from a distance and immediately asked the few customers in the supermarket to leave. At the same time, he closed the supermarket door and asked all the guards to leave.

After everyone had left, a man and a woman in the distance arrived in front of the supermarket.

The man also wore a gray-brown robe and a black turban on his face, which was exactly the same as Zheng Qiu's dress.

He knew that this person was the city lord Lin Minghao, and the woman next to him should be Granny Tang.

Zheng Qiu bowed slightly and lowered his voice: "Zheng Qiu pays homage to the city lord!"
