After a while, a dark shadow emerged from the water in the boiling pot.
Its humanoid body was more than ten feet tall, and its whole body was scorched. Black blood and pus flowed out from the rotten flesh. Its green-faced and fanged face was full of raging anger. It was staring at the disturbed self with its deep green eyes.
The sleeping monk wanted to kill him and then quickly.
On the shore, Lu Zhong waited for a long time.
He stepped forward to create cracks in the spider web, and threw the entropy light gun in his hand with all his strength.
Accompanied by a sizzling sound, the golden light gun condensed from Yang Qi broke through the zombie's supposedly hard and iron-like skin, igniting the zombie Qi escaping from its body like a torch.
But soon, as the zombies roared, the golden flames went out.
Seeing this, Lu Zhong's eyes twitched.
"It's actually an armored corpse!"
The so-called armored corpses refer to zombies with bone armor refined within their bodies. The iron-armored corpses have the strength of the Qi Refining Stage. There are also bronze-armored corpses that are equivalent to the strength of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and silver-armored corpses that are equivalent to the strength of the Pill Formation Stage.
Realizing this, he couldn't help but secretly sigh at the wisdom of his previous actions.
If it hadn't been for letting the Iron Wolf Machine Beast explode itself just now, I might have had to fight an armored corpse in its prime.
With the armored corpse's rough skin and thick flesh, even if it exhausted its spiritual power, it would be unable to do anything.
But now...
A smile appeared on Lu Zhong's face, the sword skills in his hands changed, and a golden shadow whizzed by his side. In the middle of the process, the surface of the Golden Sword ignited with golden light, but the armor-piercing body was activated.
On the other side, the armored corpse also moved.
With one kick, it was able to create a spider crack several feet in diameter. It was so fast that it was completely inconsistent with its size. It instantly accelerated to the same speed as a horse. It roared and emitted bursts of red light. It waved a pair of long arms covered with sharp nails, and rolled around.
The corpse energy rushes forward violently.
In an instant, the golden sword struck near the armored corpse.
Nails as strong as fine steel are constantly clashing with sharp sword edges.
Amidst the flying sparks, a tooth-grinding sound of friction could be heard.
The armored corpse's strength was extremely strong, completely beyond Lu Zhong's expectations. Fortunately, he had already expected that the magic weapon would not be its opponent. After all, the Golden Bite Sword only weighed less than a hundred kilograms and was essentially just a light magic sword.
With a wave of his right hand, the Sunstone powder scattered.
As he kneaded the secret and recited the incantation, another entropy light gun condensed out.
This time Lu Zhong also attached an evil-busting talisman on it.
With a throw, the armored corpse ignited golden flames again. Affected by the Evil-Breaking Talisman, the fire surged and even formed a terrifying Yang Qi inflammation, igniting the billowing Yin Qi like cotton wool.
The armored corpse was frightened and angry. The light-condensing gun controlled by the Yang Qi was too restrained, not to mention the Evil-Breaking Talisman. He originally wanted to use the massive amount of Yin Qi to drown the Yang Yan, but at this moment, the scarlet vision captured
, that abominable monk was casting a spell again, and a golden light gun condensed in his hand again.
The taste of the light gun is heartbreaking!
The evil-breaking talisman ignites the soul directly.
It has not lost its spiritual wisdom and knows that if it continues like this, it will definitely lose.
"Ouch!"
The armored corpse looked up to the sky and roared.
From his mouth, a black orb suddenly spit out.
This is a treasure that it regards as life, and now it has no choice but to spit it out in order to survive.
Bearing the pain of being burned by the sun's flames, the armored corpse opened its mouth and spewed out a stream of natal corpse energy, which fell on the spinning black orb. The orb received this yin and pure aura and suddenly glowed brightly.
At the same time, a strong malice enveloped Lu Zhong's heart.
The source of the malice was undisguised, it came from the black orb.
His heart was beating wildly, and he felt a strong sense of crisis.
Without thinking much, the water pattern mask was activated along with the light body technique, and the robes on his body shimmered.
The body was slightly lowered, ready to sprint at any time.
Taking a deep breath, Lu Zhong threw the entropy light gun in his hand and shot the orb flying towards him.
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light illuminated the place.
Whether it was the rock walls soaked in Yin Qi or the black pool still bubbling and churning, everything was now coated with a layer of golden light.
The origin of the orb is unknown. It is obviously filled with strong Yin energy, but it is not afraid of the entropy light gun at all.
Going upstream, it even forms a shock wave.
…
Lanyue Realm, somewhere.
In the underground palace, the lights are always bright and dancing.
In the center of the huge golden palace, there was a giant bronze coffin. On the soft cushion woven with gold and silver cloth, there lay a majestic man with a ruddy complexion and dressed in jade clothes.
At this moment, it suddenly opened its eyes.
"Sophora slave."
In front of the Golden Palace, a figure was kneeling.
They have different images, but all of them exude corpse aura. Some of them are similar to the armored corpses, but they are ranked at the end of the team, as if they are at the bottom half of the strength.
In front of the team, there was a being that looked like a dead tree, responding to the owner's call.
"Huai Nu is here!"
"The Black Lotus Pearl has appeared, bring it back." The man in the coffin ordered without question.
"Here!"
With the sound of dust falling, the figure known as "Huai Slave" slowly stood up from the ground.
Perhaps it had knelt for so long that its knees were actually connected to the inky jade ground. After a crackling sound, it finally stood up.
Behind him, a door opened with a bang.
Huainu bowed deeply to the man in the coffin and then walked outside.
…
Nameless valley.
Lu Zhong leaned his sword on the ground and gasped for air.
There were large stains on the cassocks on his body, and the smell of blood wafted in the air.
Not far away, a black orb lay quietly in the sand, no longer as mysterious as before.
As for the armored corpse, in the process of continuously driving the black orb, its invulnerable body was burned away by the sun's flames, and now only a pile of white ash is left on the ground.
"Huhuhu..."
After panting for a long time, Lu Zhong finally recovered.
Just now, in order to avoid the attack of the orb, he not only used the Light Body Technique to avoid the wind, but also used the Meteor Step of Star Step several times. However, he was still hit by the weird bead repeatedly, and the water pattern cover of the Black Crystal Shield was as fragile as tofu. , so that there were three more pigeon egg-sized bloody holes in his body.
Outrageous, simply outrageous!
The speed was so fast that it almost broke the sound barrier, but it was still impossible to avoid.
If I hadn't practiced Linghuan Dharmakaya and avoided the vital points many times, I would have died today.
Thinking back again, Lu Zhong was still frightened.
Fortunately, this thing belongs to me!
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face.
Reaching out to pick up the bead, you can feel a faint resistance coming from it.
Lu Zhong's smile suddenly stagnated, and a bold idea emerged in his mind. His lips trembled and he said: "Artifacts have spirits as spiritual weapons, and magic weapons will not show resistance. Could this be...could this be a... Spiritual weapon!"
Yes, only spiritual weapons can explain everything.
At this time, he ignored the pain on his body and happily stored the black orb into the jade box. After thinking about it, he pasted two evil-breaking charms on the jade box to prevent it from moving abnormally.
Then he looked at the white ash where the armored corpse had turned. This was a rare and precious material.
Its ashes are also known as "sinking bone gold" and are the best materials for refining magical instruments.
When forging a magic weapon, if one or two ounces of sunken bone gold can be added, it can remove impurities from the metal and stone, which is necessary for refining high-grade magic weapons at a low cost. Otherwise, just the purification of spiritual materials will take up the entire cost. of fifty percent.
There is not much Sunken Bone Gold, just a little over three taels, and the market price is about nearly a thousand spirit stones.
Lu Zhong did not plan to sell it, but planned to keep it for himself.
Looking at the entire deep valley at this moment, not even a single withered bone demon could be seen. In the fierce fight just now, their soul fire had been extinguished by Yang Qi, and now only a pair of withered bones were left.
"It's time to run the spiritual cultivation technique."
Lu Zhong turned his attention to the water pool, which was the core of the soul-nurturing place.
After he had suppressed the injury through meditation and breathing adjustment, he unfolded the water-patterned cover of the Black Crystal Shield to isolate the pond water, and then jumped to the bottom of the pond.
The bottom of the pool was pitch black, but in the vision of the Qi Watching Technique, there was a thick black light.
It is conceivable that the concentration of Yin Qi underneath is very high.
But this is exactly what Lu Zhong wants.
Sit down cross-legged, drink the soul-nourishing liquid in one gulp, and activate the soul-nourishing technique at the same time.
Soul Raising Technique, which had no response at first, finally gave feedback.
Suddenly, a tearing pain came from the depths of his soul.
It hurts!
Lu Zhong had never experienced such extreme pain. It was simply beyond what a human being could bear. He had no doubt that if the pain lasted any longer, he would be so painful that he would lose his mind.
This is no exaggeration!
Fortunately, the next moment, a feeling of coldness came over me.
Lu Zhong, who was soaked all over, opened his eyes and found that a huge amount of Yin Qi was rushing into his body, soothing the severe pain from the soul and allowing the operation of the Soul Nourishing Technique to be unimpeded.
"Hahaha, that's it!"
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he stepped up his spell casting.
Over and over again...and again...
It can be clearly felt that every time the soul nourishing technique is used, the soul located in the sea of consciousness will grow stronger.
As his soul continues to grow, Lu Zhong's perception of the world around him becomes clearer.
He could clearly feel that he seemed to have many more invisible tentacles. As long as he was within ten feet, he could clearly touch them. He could distinguish every edge and angle of the sand and gravel on the ground, and he could sense the dust floating in the air.
Within ten feet, everything is under control.
"Is this divine consciousness?"
Lu Zhong continued to feel carefully and found that the vision of spiritual consciousness was similar to the vision of qi gazing. The whole world was gray, and no matter what substance it was, it was all the same color.
As for differentiation, it relies on those invisible tentacles.
It is better to say that it is touched than it is scanned by spiritual consciousness.
Yes, just touch.
Rely on the exploration of invisible tentacles to model the world within ten feet, so as to know everything.
"It turns out that it relies on 'touching'. No wonder the high-level monks in the classics are so disgusted with other people's consciousness."
Among them, Kun Xiu is the most popular...
Lu Zhong also discovered that if he gathered his spiritual consciousness together and condensed it into a bundle, the range he could touch could be even further, roughly fifteen feet.
Even so, the detection distance of his spiritual consciousness is still a little closer, probably because he has not completed the foundation building yet.
Building the foundation is the beginning of the path to immortality.
The spiritual consciousness of the foundation is released, according to the records in the classics, it is said to be less than a hundred feet.
In comparison, Lu Zhong's spiritual consciousness is indeed pitiful.
"But it doesn't matter. I have nothing if no one else..."
With the presence of spiritual consciousness, even if you have not practiced the offensive spiritual consciousness secret technique, you can still take advantage of the information. And this benefit, he has already experienced it from Mo Python, and it left a deep impression.
…
Climbing up from the deep valley, Lu Zhong treated the injury.
The benefits of cultivating the Linghuan Dharmakaya once again appeared. With a strong physical foundation, even if three bloody holes were pierced in the body, the wounds would still recover very quickly, and scabs would quickly form after being sprinkled with medicinal powder.
Based on this estimate, I'm afraid it won't take long to recover.
Thinking about it, it won't affect the ranking battle.
He rushed towards Yingling City and continued to familiarize himself with the application of spiritual consciousness along the way.
Gradually, Lu Zhong learned more about the characteristics of spiritual consciousness.
There is a cost in releasing spiritual consciousness.
It will consume the power of his own soul. At present, he can probably hold on for an hour.
If you consume too much soul management, you will enter a state of fatigue that is difficult to recover from after resting. It will take a while to recover. This shows that spiritual consciousness cannot be used casually.
Another very important point is that spiritual consciousness cannot be observed by conventional means.
At least with Lu Zhong's current strength, no matter whether he looks at it with the naked eye, touches it with his hands, or turns on the Qi-gazing technique to observe it, he cannot touch the existence of spiritual consciousness.
"Then how do you discover other people's consciousness?"
Thinking of this, he felt a chill in his heart.
Could it be that...it can only be touched?
It's okay to touch Kun Xiu, but if you touch those strange people, it's really not disgusting.
There are also application scenarios, if it is a toilet...
I can kill people without blinking an eye!
But if...
No no no!
He quickly erased this terrible scene from his mind.
Lu Zhong did not dare to think any more and hurried towards Yongling City.
Half a month later, I finally rushed back to Yongling City.
Walking on the increasingly prosperous streets, it is obvious that there are many more monks in the late Qi Refining Stage on the streets. Many of them dress differently from those in the Yongling area, with the style of other areas or even other areas, which should be for
The upcoming ranking battle is here.
After hurriedly returning to Xihe Duyuan, Lu Zhong saw a group of people surrounding his door.
Each of these people were dressed in black. They were all tall and short, fat and thin, and exuded a strong stench of scoundrels. The only similarity was that they all had cultivation levels, ranging from first, second, and third levels of Qi refining. They were led by a tall and handsome man with a handsome body.
They were led by men wearing blue cassocks and waving jade fans.
"Listen to the two little bitches inside, I order you to come out on your own within a quarter of an hour!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me, Mo Zhongren, for being rude!"
The man didn't finish his words.
With a "pop" sound, he was kicked down from behind. His handsome face was stepped on by the sole of a shoe and twisted several times.
"You're welcome? Say it again!" Lu Zhong didn't expect that he had only been away for a few months, and that his home would actually be taken into consideration.
Can this be tolerated?
Of course not!
Immediately, Lu Zhong realized that he had inflated.
However, if you suppress it for a long time, it will break easily just like a bow that has been kept tight, so there is nothing wrong with occasional indulgence.
Regardless of the nearly one million mortal monks in Yingling City, the number of late-stage Qi-refining monks is still pitifully small. Even the total number of late-stage Qi-refining monks among the outer disciples of the Heling Sect in the north of the city does not exceed a thousand.
Such a small amount of energy in the late stage of Qi refining has to be distributed in the huge Yongling City.
The status of monks in the later stage of Qi refining can be imagined.
Sure enough, the scoundrels who competed with each other in their ability to adapt to the wind saw their master being stepped on by a monk in the late stage of Qi Refining. It was all about you and me, and no one dared to come forward after pushing and shoving him.
.
Maybe you won't lose your life if you do it.
But, without hands or feet, it is extremely possible.
