Chapter 117 Breakthrough in cultivation, unexpected discussion of Taoism

 Meng Zhou still takes some time every day to adjust the breath of the two Xuanling turtles, but his purpose is just to consolidate the foundation of the two turtles, and does not forcefully accelerate their absorption of the beast pills.

During the rest of the time, Meng Zhou concentrated on practicing magic.

On the sixth day of September, the art of controlling objects advances from master to perfection.

After this magic reached perfection, a very wonderful change occurred.

During a breath adjustment after the spell was completed, Meng Zhou habitually wanted to observe the true form of this spell in the Sea of ​​Consciousness Soul Pond.

Then, just when the true form of the spell was about to be completely revealed, the Qi and Blood body suddenly emitted a powerful suction force specifically aimed at the true form of the spell.

The next moment, the true form of this spell disappeared.

Meng Zhou quickly withdrew from the sea of ​​​​consciousness, checked the changes in his body, and found that the innate ability gifted by controlling the crane hand, which was almost identical to the art of controlling objects, had been greatly strengthened.

This natural ability is bound to his blood and body refining level, and will naturally improve as the body refining level increases.

At the early stage of the second level, the ultimate coverage of this talent is twenty feet.

And this kind of power transmitted through non-physical contact cannot 100% transmit the power of his second-level body training.

After repeated verification, Meng Zhou found that even if he was close at hand, relying on this talent, he could only exert about 40% of his body's power at most, and the power would decrease sharply as the distance increased.

The further away from him, the strength, flexibility, and control will decrease sharply.

Five feet away, the power he can transmit is only about 30%, and ten feet away, it drops to less than 20%.

By the time they were fifteen feet away, it had dropped sharply to less than 10%.

This is basically harmless to the foundation-building monks, and it can also bully the Qi-training monks who are a level below their strength.

After the body refining level breaks through to the middle stage of the second level, the range of this innate ability has doubled, from the limit of twenty feet to forty feet, and the transmission distance of different powers has also increased in the same proportion.

But the upper limit of power transmission still does not exceed 40%.

But this time, with the true form of this spell that is highly similar to this talent, this talent has been greatly optimized and improved.

First of all, the limit coverage of the innate ability suddenly increased from forty feet to within one hundred feet.

Secondly, the upper limit of power transfer is increased from only 40% of physical strength to 60%, although the upper limit of power transfer will still be reduced as the distance increases.

But because the upper limit is high enough, within twenty feet, it can pose a fatal threat to foundation-building monks of the same level.

Within a range of fifty feet, it can bring a strong threat to the opponent, and within a range of eighty feet, it can cause serious trouble to the opponent.

This change directly turned this "interesting" talent into a "ferocious-faced and striking" talent.

In addition, this change also brought about another change. A spell that originally consumed mana now consumes blood and physical strength.

"What is this, the realm of Qi and blood?"

The effect of this talent made Meng Zhou naturally have such thoughts in his heart.

"Can talent absorb perfectly similar skills into nutrients and achieve further optimization?"

"Isn't this a disguised way of circumventing the restriction that only when the realm is improved and the life portal is temporarily opened can deep intervention be carried out in a short period of time?"

Meng Zhou was running through various thoughts in his mind, and suddenly came up with the idea of ​​a bug.

"What effect will it have if I practice another physical form and feed it to eat? Will this talent continue to improve?"

He tried it as soon as he thought of it, and it turned out that there weren't that many loopholes for him to exploit.

The true form of the art of controlling objects is only integrated with the blood and body, and the corresponding talents are optimized.

However, Meng Zhou has not lost the perfect level of object control. He can still consume mana to cast this spell as usual.

Therefore, repeated shedding of wool will not happen.

However, Meng Zhou was not disappointed. He didn't have much hope in this matter.

His thoughts had turned elsewhere.

"That's not right. If the true form of the skill that is similar to the talent will become the nutrient for talent optimization, then how come the Flying Escape Technique that I have perfected earlier has not improved my talent, and there is no movement at all?"

"Flying Escape Technique can be regarded as a movement technique. Among the fourteen innate martial arts, three are related to movement techniques: Water Step, Magic Step and Dragon Walk, and Wanli Divine Walk.

There is also a very relevant light body talisman’s true form!”

After thinking about it, Meng Zhou could only attribute the reason to its essential difference.

Although in terms of effect, they all increase the speed of the cultivator, those innate skills affect his body, while the flying escape technique uses the power of the void.

Thinking of this, Meng Zhou shook his head and decided not to dwell on these issues anymore.

It can only be said that the more you gain, the more you will know.

Now, he can have appropriate curiosity, but everything must still focus on his own cultivation.

Meng Zhou put away all kinds of distracting thoughts and focused on his own cultivation again.

After perfecting the art of controlling objects, Meng Zhou once again incorporated the art of transforming objects, which he had already practiced to a master's level, into his training plan (mainly digging the spiritual field reservoirs and underground ditches).

Compared with the art of transformation and control of objects, the efficiency of "hoeing" of the art of transformation is undoubtedly much higher.

This is not only because the latter is a second-level mid-level spell, while the first two are second-level low-level spells, but also because it is more professionally relevant.

Since practicing the art of chemical transformation, the daily plowing efficiency has increased dramatically, and about twenty acres of spiritual fields are plowed every day.

However, contrary to the great increase in the efficiency of plowing spiritual fields, the daily experience gained from the transformation of objects is much lower than that of the control of objects.

Under the premise that Meng Zhou also practiced armor and shield skills and invisibility skills, the transformation skill can provide him with a maximum of 240 experience points per day.

On the eighth day of September, the Invisibility Technique was promoted from Dacheng to Master.

By the time Meng Zhou started to retreat again, the three spells he focused on practicing were:

Armor and Shield Master 5130/8000;

Master of Invisibility 930/4000;

Master of Physique 3710/4000.

In addition, Cunbu has also accumulated bit by bit to reach "Master 800/4000", and Yun Yu Shu has accumulated more than half of the master level without knowing it, "Master of Yun Yu Shu 3000/4000".



September 13th.

early morning.

Cultivation progress +100, foundation building second floor 902/1000;

Second level Spring Water Sutra Dacheng 6400/8000;

Soul Pond Refining Moon Heart is 2920/4000;

Black Turtle Body Refining Technique Dacheng 700/4000.

The harvest was imminent, and Meng Zhou, who had finished his practice, was in a happy mood and walked out of the quiet room briskly.

However, he quickly calmed down and focused on the matters in front of him.

The spiritual seedlings in the courtyard are growing very well because of Yaya's care.

Meng Zhou only needs to refill the pond with water every once in a while, and he doesn't need to worry about anything else.

Even the two Xuanling Turtles have Yaya as their strict supervisor, and they dare not slack off at all. He only needs to pay attention to replenishing them with new beast pills in time.

On September 14th, the art of chemical transformation was promoted from master to master, and the efficiency of cultivating spiritual fields was greatly improved again.



On the 15th, Meng Zhou received another summons from Governor Li, reminding him about the exchange meeting for the second time.

He also talked about some more specific arrangements made by the Sanchuan Association for this exchange.



On the morning of September 16th, Meng Zhou, who was hiding in the spiritual field and focusing on the connection between the three spells, was suddenly startled.

"Hey, is this the end?"

Meng Zhou's consciousness noticed something unusual on the ground in front of him, and he was a little surprised to notice this.

However, what surprised him was that the first spiritual fields that were plowed were only more than two months ago.

But the ground is no longer as loose as it was when it was first plowed. Although it is not hardened to a level comparable to a first-level high-grade defensive weapon, it is no longer something that ordinary ordinary warriors can break through with a hoe and shovel.

Meng Zhou was silent in his heart.

Under the observation of spiritual consciousness, this is because the earth vein aura and the earth ground are slowly "colluding" together again.

"Therefore, the plowed spiritual fields should be used immediately and should not be left idle. If they are left for a long time, they will harden and solidify again."

Meng Zhou tried to use the chemical transformation technique to deal with these spiritual fields that were initially hardened together, and it was extremely easy.

In no time, he was able to loosen an entire acre of spiritual fields again, and the amount of mana in his body was not very large.

Seeing this, Meng Zhou ignored the matter and looked at the wasteland outside the spiritual field.

In a blink of an eye, Meng Zhou stood on the wasteland.

Meng Zhou has not forgotten what Governor Li said before. In the future, the wasteland in Sanchuan Plain will only become less and less, and Meng Zhou plans to take the opportunity to open up more wasteland.

As usual, Meng Zhou injected his magic power into the surrounding ground through his feet. Immediately, Meng Zhou couldn't help but lick the flower seeds gently.

"so hard!"

It's like being used to eating soft tofu and suddenly biting into a piece of iron.

If the spiritual field that had been idle for three years was comparable to a first-level high-grade defensive magic weapon, then the hardness of the wasteland under his feet now was equivalent to a second-level low-grade defensive magic weapon.

"This is a veritable second-order low-grade spiritual field, right?"

Meng Zhou was joking in his heart, and after careful inspection with his spiritual consciousness, he understood why this wasteland was so difficult to chew.

Because the aura of the earth veins in these areas has been completely integrated with the land under your feet, it is not solidified, but "combined into one".

This is not a good thing, according to some knowledge Meng Zhou knew.

The most precious thing about spiritual veins is that they have roots and are endless.

There is no problem of using a little or using a little less.

As long as we continue to fish in the water, fully develop and utilize the spiritual veins, and let the spiritual energy in the veins flow instead of being hardened and deposited, there will be huge benefits and no harm!

These earth vein auras deposited and solidified in the land are, to put it mildly, underutilized, and being left idle is a waste.

To put it more seriously, it is equivalent to the lesions of Qi stasis in the human body.

It will not only affect the area where it is located, but also the activity of the entire spiritual vein will be affected.

"Perhaps, this is also an important reason why Sanchuan Yuan ranks at the bottom among all the second-order spiritual veins in Qingxuan Domain."

Meng Zhou had such speculation in his mind.

Other spiritual veins, such as the Jade Lake he had seen before, most of the area is a deep and wide water area, and the spiritual energy in it is naturally extremely fluid.

Not to mention, the underwater world is a more complex and three-dimensional ecological world than the plains and mountains.

Spirit fish, aquatic spirit beasts, spirit plants, and underwater spirit materials not only benefit from such an abundant spiritual energy environment, but because of their existence, the spiritual energy is also extremely active, and there is absolutely no worry about sedimentation.

As for those islands, as long as they are not man-made or deliberately destroyed, there is no need to worry about the aura of the earth being deposited in the land.

The spiritual plants that grow on the ground are rooted in the ground, just like acupuncture that "unblocks meridians and removes blood stasis". It is impossible to give them a chance to settle down.

But Sanchuan Plateau is different, the survival of Lingzhi relies heavily on the supply of Lingshui.

As long as spiritual water cannot be stably supplied to an area, spiritual plants will lack the foundation for survival.

Over time, it will look like this under your feet.

Meng Zhou was thinking about this in his mind, but without any delay in his actions, he began to slowly "melt" the hard ground away bit by bit with his master-level chemical transformation technique.

Compared with the spiritual field that had been idle for three years, the efficiency dropped directly by four to five times.

However, the speed is still much faster than using the shape-shifting and object-controlling techniques, and he still clears out about ten acres of new spiritual land every day.

Meng Zhou also discovered an interesting phenomenon, that is, the newly opened spiritual fields re-formed at a speed much faster than those of mature spiritual fields.

Those ripe spiritual fields that I tilled were left idle for a month or two before they "colluded" with the earth's spiritual energy again.

And these newly opened spiritual fields have the potential to make a comeback in just a day or two.

Soon, Meng Zhou found the crux.

It is because of the "inertia" of the earth's aura in these wastelands. Its characteristics are like this. They have long been accustomed to this state. To it, this is its "original face".

To put it bluntly, the aura here is inherently "sad".

If such a spiritual field is opened up and sown with spiritual plants immediately, even if a sufficient supply of spiritual water is ensured, the growth of the spiritual plants will not be very good.

Until long-term cultivation of spiritual plants gives them new characteristics, changing from "mourning" to "living".

"No wonder Sanchuan has so many encouraging policies for land reclamation. It's no good if we don't encourage it!"

Meng Zhou murmured in his heart, but he found that this did not seem to be an unsolvable problem for him.

The inheritance jade slip given to him by Chu Zheng newly included the inheritance of the spiritual planter.

Among this spiritual planter, there is a second-level spell called Qi Regulation.

Yes, it's the Qi-regulating technique among the eight medicine master spells that he has mastered now and is even gifted.

They are the same spell.

It's just a difference in the scope of application.

Pharmacists applied qi-regulating techniques to the human body, and then extended it to other living organisms such as animals.

However, spiritual planters use the art of regulating qi to adjust the tonal characteristics of the land.

For example, whether some spiritual fields are suitable or unsuitable for planting, you can use Qi-regulating techniques to make the spiritual fields most compatible with the spiritual plants being planted, and turn them into the most suitable soil environment for their growth.

Meng Zhou tried to regulate the Qi of the spirit field that was created from wasteland. At first, Meng Zhou was a little unsure, but it didn't take long for him to successfully master the technique of using Qi regulation on the spirit field.

The simplest way is to treat it as a piece of life-like skin and flesh, and it will naturally cut into the scene he is most familiar with.

After such processing, the effect is very obvious.

But what really made Meng Zhou so shocked that he almost blinked his eyes out was that with his first successful use of Qi regulating technique on Lingtian, the profession of pharmacist underwent tremendous changes.

Not only did he fall from the middle level of the second level back to the low level of the second level, but what's even more outrageous is that his name also changed.

[Medicine Master Level 2 320/1000]

Meng Zhou was a little confused at first, but with this change, a steady stream of new experiences and insights emerged in his mind, making Meng Zhou understand everything.

Medicine Spiritualist is a composite profession of Medicine Spiritualist and Spiritual Planter.

In fact, he has mastered a lot of spiritual planter's spells, including cloud and rain, wind and wind, regulating qi, golden light, inspection, and rejuvenation. These spells are all related to spiritual planters.

Therefore, he actually already had the foundation to become a spiritual planter. The reason why he did not become a spiritual planter was because he did not take the initiative and consciously to pierce the thin layer of window paper.

Now, as he successfully performed Qi regulating technique on a spiritual field for the first time, the cognitive barrier in his mind was broken.

It suddenly dawned on me.

This unexpected change surprised Meng Zhou, but soon he returned to focusing on opening up wasteland.

The only difference is that every day he will use the Qi regulating technique on the newly opened ten acres of spiritual land.

Because of the special status of Qi Regulation and the other seven spells, all eight spells benefit from it, and some experience is accumulated every day.

September 18th.

The armor and shield technique is perfect.

The perfection of this spell has undergone the same changes as the object-controlling spell.

The true form of the spell that appeared in the soul pool was absorbed by the Qi and Blood body, optimizing his natural ability in Qi and Blood defense. This talent comes from the Turtle Snake Strength.

After the spell was perfected, Meng Zhou did not choose any new spells for the next two days, focusing on the transformation and invisibility spells, catching up on the progress that had been slightly behind schedule due to the use of Qi regulating spells in the previous few days.



September 20th, late at night.

In a quiet room.

Meng Zhou sat cross-legged and entered the country in a familiar way, watching with aloofness and alienation as the mana, qi, blood, and consciousness circulated over and over again among the three poles of energy, energy, and spirit.

He "saw" that in the Great Zhoutian Cycle, the mana that had reached its limit successfully completed a qualitative change.

When Meng Zhou exited this state, he directly experienced the magic power flowing in his meridians and dantian, which quietly became more solid and thicker.

Build three levels of foundation and break through.

They are both liquid mana, but obviously, water and mercury, which are both liquid, are also very different.

"It should be much easier to use those second-level mid-level spells now than before."

Meng Zhou finished his practice with this thought in his mind.

After leaving the quiet room, Meng Zhou had several brief downpours as usual, filling the pond with water.

When performing the Cloud and Rain Technique, the changes brought about by this breakthrough can be felt more intuitively.

Not only was the rain heavier, but the duration was also extended from three minutes to five minutes. Compared with the second floor of the foundation, the efficiency was fully doubled.

Meng Zhou went to the Lingtian again to test the power of several spells. Compared with the second level of foundation building, they were all significantly improved.

This is even more obvious when it comes to the development of spiritual fields. Originally, only ten acres of spiritual fields could be opened a day, but now it can reach more than twenty acres a day.

The experience gained from spells has also been greatly improved compared to the second level of foundation building, but unfortunately, it has not doubled.

Because the amount of experience gained is mainly based on the number of successful spells cast and the continuous casting time, the increase in spell power caused by the improvement of cultivation level will not be taken into consideration.

In terms of experience gain, the improvement of cultivation is more reflected in the longer time it takes to continuously cast spells, the less time it takes to regulate and restore breath, and the longer the duration of practice.

The daily gain of experience of invisibility is +450, the daily gain of experience of transformation skill is +360, and the daily gain of experience of regulating qi (eight items for pharmacists) is +100.

After two days of clearing wasteland, in addition to fifty acres of new wasteland, Meng Zhou was completely adapted to the current level of cultivation of the third level of foundation building.

At this time, a mana light group the size of a hair shot through the air from a distance and shot straight towards Meng Zhou.

Meng Zhou stretched out his hand, took it in his hand, and quickly read the information inside.

Meng Zhou dodged back to the courtyard, put Yaya, who was used to moving in the form of a grasshopper, into the sea of ​​consciousness, and put the two mysterious turtles into the beast bag.

Then, Meng Zhou set up the highest level of protective alert for the formation, and then fled away from Zhuang Tianzhuang.

When Meng Zhou set out, he sent a flying message to Governor Li.

When he arrived at the front of the town, more than fifty miles away, he immediately saw Governor Li waiting on the city wall.

Since September 20th, Governor Li has sent him a summons every day.

However, looking at his choice of words, Meng Zhou gradually came to realize that it was most likely a group message, but he just added a title before his message.

After leaving seclusion on the 23rd, after receiving the Feishi message from him that day, Meng Zhoucai sent him a formal message for the first time, saying that he would not be notified until the foundation building exchange meeting started.

Because according to the previous summons sent by Governor Li, Meng Zhou also had some understanding of the general process of this exchange. The initial transaction was a transaction of bulk resources, which was basically first-order materials.

Then there is the large-scale transaction of second-level resources such as spiritual rice, spiritual fruits, and spiritual tea produced in the Sanchuan Plain and second-level monster meat, monster blood, and monster skins shipped from the Blue Blood Plain.

The foundation-building exchange meeting is in the second half of the entire exchange meeting. When the foundation-building exchange meeting ends, it basically declares the end of the entire exchange meeting.

According to the information Governor Li sent to him on the 15th, the foundation building exchange meeting arranged by the Sanchuan Association should be around the 28th or 29th.

At this moment, Meng Zhou saw Governor Li and curiously asked: "Why is it two or three days ahead of schedule?"

Governor Li smiled bitterly.

Meng Zhou was curious: "What's wrong?"

"Compared with previous years, this year's exchange meeting has shrunk a lot..."

Following Governor Li's explanation, Meng Zhou also understood what was going on.

Not all spiritual plant harvests occur in September, but compared to other seasons, the harvests this month are more concentrated.

There are also harvests in other months. Each month alone is not much, but taken together, it exceeds the harvest in September.

Bixueyuan set the time for the exchange meeting in late September. Naturally, they were interested in not only the produce in September, but also the harvest that had been saved since October last year.

But Governor Li said before that since February this year, Sanchuanhui has formed a large fleet of spaceships to transport these resources to Qinglinfang for delivery.

Bixueyuan is located in the outer area, with a straight-line distance of more than 70,000 miles from Qinglinfang.

Not to mention the middle ring, after entering the outer area, the first- and second-level evil veins become denser. First- and second-level monsters, especially flying monsters, often fly out of the evil vein area and even migrate across the evil veins.

Traveling.

In such an environment, it is not easy for external news to come in or internal news to come out, and there will be a long lag.

All in all, Bixueyuan organized a huge team to cross the outer area and came to the exchange team of Sanchuan Plain. It was not until they entered Sanchuan Plain that they learned in detail the various changes that had occurred this year, starting from the Qingxuan Sect and affecting the entire Qingxuan Territory.

.

At the same time, they also learned that the resources that Mikawahara had prepared for this exchange meeting were much less than what they had expected in previous years.

They came all the way, so naturally they couldn't just go back home with unfinished resources.

The most dangerous part of the road has already been walked, so let’s walk tens of thousands more miles.

What's more, they are also very coveted for the resources auctioned by Qinglinfang and Xinlou, from the foundation-building pills to the second-level realm-breaking pills that help foundation-building monks break through the realm. For a force, they are all strategic resources!

This is especially true for the Jade Blood Plain monks who live in a more dangerous situation.

Therefore, the mighty team from the Blue Blood Plains only stayed for half a day, and the best part left the Sanchuan Plateau and headed for the hinterland of the Qingxuan Territory.

The team that stayed in Mikawahara was not small in size, but its quality was very questionable.

If it weren't for the monks of the Blue Blood Plains who have a rigid demand for the spiritual rice, spiritual tea, spiritual fruits and many spiritual herbs and elixirs produced in the Sanchuan Plain, the entire team coming from the Blue Blood Plains would probably have traveled eastward.

Seeing this situation, Sanchuan naturally did not want to force the exchange meeting to last for ten days as usual, and all aspects were adjusted according to the actual situation.

According to Governor Li Xiang, the originally planned ten-day exchange meeting will be completed in six days, which means it will end tomorrow.

Governor Li's explanation gave Meng Zhou a comprehensive understanding of the situation.

At this moment, he was also taken to the sky above a street by Governor Li.

Governor Li was about to take Meng Zhou to a magnificent five-story building in the center, but Meng Zhou said to him:

"I have some other things to deal with. I'll come back later."

Governor Li nodded, took out a letter and gave it to Meng Zhou, saying:

"Then remember to come here. The exchange meeting will start in about an hour. I won't come to pick you up then. Just take this letter and go straight to the fifth floor."

Meng Zhou nodded and took the order letter. Governor Li did not stop, bowed his hand to Meng Zhou, and quickly flew away.

After he went away, Meng Zhou also fell into the street below.

The Qi-training monks walking around all looked at Meng Zhou in awe, and the flow of people automatically diverted around him.

Being in this street, for a moment, Meng Zhou felt like he had returned to Qinglinfang again.

Whether it was the density of monks coming and going or the various high-frequency transactions, it was no less than what he had seen in Qinglinfang.

However, this is of course an illusion.

This is just a street, used temporarily for this purpose. It only happens once a year and lasts only six days.

Meng Zhou looked in one direction. Yang Chong came to Meng Zhou with an ordinary-looking woman and bowed respectfully.

Meng Zhou nodded, looked at Liu Ying who had deliberately concealed her appearance, and asked: "How is it? Do you have a goal?"

Liu Ying replied:

"I have set my sights on four targets, but one of them has been taken advantage of by someone else.

Now there are three options to choose from, but I am a little hesitant about which one to choose... How about you, senior, give me the palm of your hand?"

Meng Zhou nodded. As a spirit controller, he was also quite interested in this.

However, his situation is special. Unless there are special circumstances like the two mysterious turtles he currently raises, there is really no need to tame the spiritual beasts.

However, he was still very happy to palm the eyes for others and said: "Take me to see it."

Soon, the three of them entered a huge shop, where all three of Liu Ying's favorite targets were located.

The three targets she was interested in, two eggs and a cub, all had the potential of second-level low-grade animals.

In this store, the second-order low-grade products cannot be said to be bad. After all, there are more first-order high-grade products, but they are definitely not that good.

Meng Zhou just looked around casually and saw several second-order middle-grade eggs and cubs, as well as a second-order high-grade egg, which was placed in the most conspicuous place as the store's treasure.

"What do you think?" Meng Zhou asked.

The answer Liu Ying gave was not beyond Meng Zhou's expectations.

She made the best choice for herself taking into account the financial resources of her husband and wife.

With Meng Zhou's financial resources, he could easily win even the second-grade top-grade store-building egg in this store.

But he had no intention of providing spiritual stones for the two of them. Although his help to the two of them had already exceeded the measurable range of the spiritual stones, he had no intention of directly using the spiritual stones to fill the road for them.

After listening to Liu Ying's idea, Meng Zhou looked at the two chicks huddled in a birdcage, naked with few feathers, and said:

"Since you are mainly considering the issue of spirit stones and have no particular preference for them, I suggest you choose them."

Liu Ying looked at the two chicks carefully and said in surprise: "Them?"

After her appraisal, the potential of these two chicks was first-grade, the same as the two giant birds in her hands.

Is there something strange in it that I didn't see?

Liu Ying was confused and looked at Meng Zhou.

Meng Zhou didn't explain much to her, he just said through his spiritual consciousness: "If you believe me, buy them, don't ask anything else."

Liu Ying immediately stopped hesitating and lifted up the cage containing the two chicks.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. Any one of the three choices she was interested in would basically drain the spirit stones from both her husband and wife.

In comparison, these two first-level top-grade chicks are much cheaper.

Soon, the three of them left the shop. Meng Zhou said to Liu Ying, "If you have any questions, let's talk about it when we get back."

After that, he jumped up and flew straight towards the magnificent five-story building.

After watching "Senior Zhuang" go away, the couple quickly left the place without staying any longer.



Meng Zhou flew directly to the fifth floor platform. Before entering the building, he felt the formation blocking his way.

Meng Zhou did not force his way in, but took out the letter given by Governor Li. The formation blocking the way in front of him instantly turned into invisible water waves, allowing Meng Zhou to easily enter the building.

As soon as he entered, Meng Zhou felt a pair of eyes falling on him.

However, those curious eyes did not stay on him for too long, and soon left.

Seeing that more than fifty foundation-building monks had gathered in this building, Meng Zhou was slightly shocked.

It is rare for so many foundation-building monks to get together. The last time was the exchange meeting hosted by the owner of Hexin Tower himself.

Meng Zhou looked at others, and others also looked at him.

As soon as he found a quiet place to sit down, he saw a middle-aged man striding towards him.

This man exudes a fierce and fierce aura all over his body, and has a beard like a steel needle.

In addition, he wore a short-sleeved leather armor, completely exposing a pair of bronze arms. Compared with other foundation-building monks, he looked very different.

He came straight to Meng Zhou, looked at him with unabashed curiosity, and said with cupped hands: "I'm Kan Yue, I wonder how you call me my friend?"

Meng Zhou cupped his hands and replied: "Zhuang Sheng, Taoist friend looks at me like this, can you ask me why?"

Kan Yue did not mince words with Meng Zhou and said directly: "Fellow Taoist, please don't misunderstand me. I have no ill intentions. I just saw a fellow Taoist here and wanted to get close to my fellow Taoist."

"Comrade?" Meng Zhou was confused.

Kan Yue looked around and said via voice transmission: "Fellow Taoist, haven't you heard of my name?"

Meng Zhou shook his head. Since the other party sent a message, he also sent a message to respond.

"I'm sorry, I just came to Sanchuan Plateau not long ago. I have been in retreat in Zhuangtian and haven't heard of Taoist friends."

Kan Yue nodded and said through a message: "I am from the Jinding Region. I have seen fellow Taoists who also cultivate both Dharma and Body. Some of them are close to old friends from other places."

Meng Zhou was shocked. Since the other party had seen through it, he did not deny it, but directly asked out of curiosity:

"Sorry, I thought I had managed to control my energy and blood very well. How did you see that?"

At this moment, he already knew who the other party was.

Once, Governor Li deliberately chatted with him about the other person, the one who was picked up by Qingxuanzong from Jinding Domain and did not want to go back after spending money in Hexinlou, so he came to Sanchuan Plain to farm.

He saw that the other party was straightforward and did not talk to him in circles. He also directly asked about the confusion in his heart.

Kan Yue smiled and said:

"My fellow Taoist is very capable in this area, and he doesn't leak any energy or blood.

But for me, I can tell the difference at a glance.”

His words seemed nonsense and did not explain Meng Zhou's doubts at all, but Meng Zhou already understood.

Kan Yue grew up in the Jinding Territory, and it is common sense for monks in the Jinding Territory to cultivate both body and law.

Unless you are born with a flaw, you can only follow one path.

Otherwise, they will all choose dual cultivation of Dharma and Body.

The monks in Qingxuan Domain basically follow the path of Qi refining.

Even if everyone uses breath-condensing techniques and other methods to control their breath very well, Kan Yue, an outsider, can still see the difference between the monks from the Qingxuan Domain and the monks from the Jinding Domain at a glance.

Just as Kan Yue appeared in his sight, Meng Zhou could tell at the first glance that he was different from the other monks around him, like an intruder.

Therefore, this is not because Meng Zhou was unable to collect interest and was discovered by others.

It's not that the other party has mastered some special secret method and can use its "spear" to break his own "shield". It has nothing to do with spell cultivation or anything like that.

Rather, it is about certain habits and behaviors that come naturally, and are incorporated into the details of walking, sitting, and lying.

In the eyes of Governor Li, who was born and raised and has never seen many monks practicing both Dharma and Body, he could not see the problem.

But in the eyes of Kan Yue in front of him, his presence was so distinct and outstanding.

This is actually the same as his ability to identify who is a martial arts master in a crowd at a glance.

It's just that he was the one looking at the "scenery" in the past, but this time, he became the "scenery" in the eyes of others.

This alarmed Meng Zhou.

I'm even a little lucky to have met such a straightforward person like Kan Yue today, who directly exposed this flaw.

Otherwise, if he is not aware of this in the future and continues to switch identities back and forth but ignores this, it will really be a fatal flaw.

Meng Zhou recorded this matter in his heart, but he did not neglect Kan Yue who took the initiative to get close to his comrade.

Now that the fact of dual cultivation of Dharma and Body has been revealed, Meng Zhou simply admitted it openly and openly, and the cover-up seemed to be more obvious.

The character of "Zhuang Sheng" has also been slightly adjusted because of this. Anyway, the only person who had any contact with this identity before today was Governor Li Jinzhuji, and he never knew about his cultivation situation.

Anyway, Meng Zhou also had a lot of confusions about the body-training method. Since he created the second-level body-training method, he has accumulated more than a dozen problems.

Now when he meets an understanding person, and he is so proactive, he doesn't care whether the situation is right or not, and directly asks for advice.

Of course, when asking for advice, he was very careful and would never let the other person know that his second-level body-training method was something as shocking as his own creation.

However, ordinary practitioners with normal thinking will never think about it in this regard.

From Kan Yue's point of view, what Meng Zhou asked were general questions that did not involve the core issues of the body-refining method at all. Naturally, he had no need to cover up or conceal this.

Moreover, although the questions asked by Meng Zhou were all ordinary, he would occasionally share some insights that greatly inspired him.

Although everyone is a practitioner of both law and body, the knowledge of the body-refining monks of the Qingxuan Domain is far less comprehensive and systematic than that of the monks of the Jinding Domain.

But there is also no shortage of novel insights that can give people great inspiration.

Kan Yue was also very excited about this, and the two sides discussed Taoism on such an occasion.

When Meng Zhou saw Governor Li Xiangli and a group of foundation-building monks coming in, they both felt that they had not finished their work and had benefited a lot.

Kan Yue said to Meng Zhou: "Fellow Taoist Zhuang, how close we can be in the future!"
