The bright moon shines on the snow, creating a beautiful contrast.
The night is clearer than in the past.
After a busy day, Chen Mengze sat cross-legged on the bed, slowly turning the "Bing Qing Jade Immortal Jue".
Silver light enveloped her body, making her skin as clear as a peeled lychee. When the technique was running, the blood vessels under the skin could even be faintly seen.
The spiritual energy attracted turned into fine ice crystals floating around her body, rippling like smoke as she breathed in and out.
It's as if the jade sculpture is covered with a layer of frost, giving it a crystal-clear and cold beauty.
This immortal secret was the opportunity she got from breaking through the ghost gate.
Chen Mengze didn't know what level this technique was, but it was more miraculous than all the magical techniques she had practiced.
According to the description of the jade slip of the exercise method.
The "Bing Qing Jade Immortal Technique" has been cultivated to the deepest level, allowing her to have qualifications and talents that are not inferior to those of the ice spirit body.
After all, Chen Mengze is also from a great immortal sect, so he naturally knows that spiritual bodies are created by nature.
She has never heard of any magical techniques in the world of immortality that can allow cultivators to cultivate spiritual bodies!
At first, Chen Mengze naturally didn’t believe it.
But after practicing, she was surprised and delighted to find that this magic formula was not a random fabrication.
Just getting started, she noticed that her cultivation qualifications were slowly improving!
My cultivation has progressed faster than usual, and my understanding of various immortal arts and martial arts has become more transparent.
However, the conditions for practicing this Immortal Art are quite harsh.
First of all, the practitioner must be a woman.
If a man were to practice, he would have to practice hard for hundreds of years and never even get a glimpse of it.
This is not a big deal. Many immortal arts and martial arts skills of immortal cultivators have some limitations.
Secondly, the practitioner must have a pure and pure body.
Not only the body, but also the soul and mind should be as spotless as snow-capped mountains and icy springs.
Let the Taoist heart be in a state of ice and purity at all times!
Before leaving the gate of hell, Chen Mengze's practice of "Ice Pure Jade Immortal Technique" was particularly smooth, and he was able to master it in just a few days.
Shen Mo felt that the alienation in her body was getting worse at the beginning, especially because she had practiced this magic trick.
But, after Chen Mengze comes out of the gate of hell...
Many worldly distractions came to the fore, causing her progress in this skill to almost stagnate!
Even though I have avenged my great revenge, the obsession in my heart has been resolved, and my level of improvement is no longer hindered, there is still no progress in this immortal technique.
Now, several months have passed in the blink of an eye, and her attainments in "Bing Qing Jade Immortal Technique" have actually retreated instead of advancing.
Even worse than when I first came out of hell!
Chen Mengze practices this method every day, just to... try his best to maintain his attainments in the method without deterioration.
At present, she is not doing well enough.
When practicing tonight, as usual, a certain figure flashed through her mind. She had been rejected countless times, but now she could not even hope for it.
Then——
The attainment of "Bingqing Jade Immortal Technique" has been reduced by another three points!
Although he had already guessed this, Chen Mengze's pretty face still inevitably showed a little disappointment.
"Tuk Tuk!"
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Chen Mengze brushed off the frost on his body, stood up and opened the door, and suddenly found that standing outside the door was the figure that had inexplicably appeared in his mind before.
She palpitated slightly in her heart, but her face returned to its former cold expression.
"Sister Chen, I have something to tell you in detail."
Shen Mo had long been accustomed to her attitude and smiled without mind.
Chen Mengze nodded slightly, turned around and entered the room.
"Squeak~~~~"
Shen Mo followed in, closed the door, and then posted a prohibition talisman.
"Senior Sister Chen, you should also know. I have received the order from the sect and will return to the mountain gate to retreat for a period of time soon."
Shen Mo didn't see anyone outside. He sat down and made a cup of spiritual tea for himself. He also didn't forget to make a cup for Chen Mengze.
Sipping the fragrance between his teeth and cheeks, under Chen Mengze's probing eyes, he continued: "I have convinced Elder Shentu to jointly recommend you as the chief envoy of Hongye Town."
"I wonder if you are willing?"
"If you don't want to, let this matter go. If you have no objection, I will work with Elder Shentu to report this matter to the sect tomorrow."
Chen Mengze had a look of surprise on his face, pondered for a while, and then said, "Do you want me to help you occupy this position?"
"That's right!"
Shen Mo has nothing to hide.
He told Chen Mengze about his plot to gain industrial benefits from the Qian family and Elder Qian.
It is even more clear that he now owns 60% of the shares of Baodan Pavilion, Lingfuju, Ascension Pill Store, Wanluo Immortal Arms Building and other stores.
Recently, all the supplies required for the Guarding Monk’s merit reward were purchased from these four stores.
Chen Mengze felt both admiration and anger at the same time.
What is admirable is that Shen Mo actually earned such a fortune without saying a word.
What makes him angry is that he did not hesitate to offend the Qian Clan and the Rising Sun Peak elders for this... Originally, the Celestial Clan forces within the sect saw him as an eyesore, and now he has given them an excuse to attack.
In addition, in order to earn spiritual stones, Chen Mengze did not shy away from taking care of his own store business, which also left Chen Mengze quite speechless.
Unexpectedly, Shen Mo said confidently: "The guard department's purchase of spiritual objects required for merit rewards is an indispensable expenditure. Who is buying it or not?"
"Besides, the elixirs, talismans, magical instruments and other items sold in the store under my name are of high quality."
"It's also sold to the Guards Department at the market price, and I can get even a spiritual stone as a kickback."
"It's really... just the most normal transaction!"
When Chen Mengze heard it at first glance, it really made sense.
But when I thought about it carefully, I found that it was strange to think about it.
Shen Mo personally refined elixirs, made talismans, and cast magical instruments.
The finished products were sold to his own shop, and then the Guardian Department used monthly contributions from various parties to purchase these elixirs and spiritual items, and distributed them to the nominal monks of the Guardian Department.
Going around, he can not only make a fortune selling elixirs, talismans, and utensils, but he can also receive dividends from the store, and most of the profits fall into his pocket.
The elixirs and other items he refined were returned to the Guarding Department and rewarded to nominal monks including Chen Mengze...
"No wonder you want me to take over the position of envoy."
After figuring out the key, Chen Mengze glanced at Shen Mo angrily.
The garrison department of Hongye City is different from other cities.
A few days ago, even the nominal monks’ monthly salary could not be paid out, let alone the purchase of merit rewards.
Nowadays, everything is waiting to be done. Shen Mo alone has the final say as to which store to purchase spiritual items from.
As for other branches of the Security Department, the forces of all parties are complicated, and the procurement aspect is even more profitable, and has long been firmly controlled by others.
Shen Mo even wanted to use the senior brothers and sisters from Xingchen Peak to get some business for Baodan Pavilion and other shops, but he couldn't do it.
Therefore, he didn’t want to let go of his position as the chief envoy of Hongye Town easily!
Recalling that Shen Mo set a high reward for her, Chen Mengze would not be pedantic and feel that this was not a good thing.
"Assuming the position of envoy, I can earn a lot of spiritual stone resources."
"It's much better than my usual tasks."
"I will accept this matter!"
Chen Mengze took a sip of spiritual tea, and when he spoke, he breathed out into mist, and threw it towards Shen Mo's face.
Smelling the faint fragrance of sweet tea, a smile appeared in Shen Mo's eyes.
