And during the period when Meng Zhou broke through seclusion, there were more than just these two major events that happened in the Outer Territory.
Since the golden-armored spirit insect successfully overcame the tribulation, the eight fourth-level evil places have not stopped.
The calamity clouds in the sky almost never really dissipated.
The True Spirit Tribulation, the Nascent Soul Tribulation, it’s really up to you to sing and then I will appear.
Those big demons at the peak level of the third level, as well as the monks who have reached the peak of pill formation, each one seems to be following the fashion. They don't care whether they are qualified or not. They will trigger the heavenly tribulation without hesitation, for fear of being a step too late.
.
The consequence of this is that whether it is a great demon or a monk, the failure rate is surprisingly high.
More than half of those who rushed through the tribulation could not even withstand the first wave of tribulation, which was equivalent to the "appetizer" of the first nine tribulations.
If you are lucky, you can barely survive half of your life; if you are unlucky, you will be turned into ashes by the catastrophe.
But even so, even though they knew such a terrifying loss rate, the great demons at the peak of the third level and the monks at the peak of the core formation did not hesitate at all, and went forward one by one.
From the perspective of a bystander, it really feels like everyone is rushing to the guillotine.
But after thinking about it for a moment, Meng Zhou understood.
Whether they are the great demons at the peak level of the third level or the monks at the peak of pill formation, they are all standing at the top of the original eight wastelands of the outer world.
A firm and persevering desire to seek the truth is the basic quality of this group.
Moreover, such achievements cannot be achieved in a day or two, or in a year or two.
It can even be said that as early as dozens of years ago, or even one or two hundred years ago, they had already stood at the top of the eight wastelands in the outer world.
Some of the "elderly" with outstanding talents may have stayed in this position for a longer time and had already reached this point two or three hundred years ago.
In the eyes of those middle- and low-level monks whose entire life span is less than two or three hundred years, they can only envy and admire this.
This is a height that they could never reach even on tiptoe in their entire lives. This is a level that they never dare to dream about.
But from the perspective of these parties, no one would really enjoy this state.
Meng Zhou put himself in his shoes and thought that he would not be able to bear this situation for even two or three years, let alone two or three hundred years.
Two or three hundred years? I have to drive myself crazy.
The upper limit of the eight foreign lands that you can go to is right there, so what can you do if you don't hold back?
The emergence of the fourth-level evil place really ignited the flames in the hearts of the monks and demons in this situation.
If there are no other changes, they may make some more thorough preparations.
But not long after the upgrade of the third-level evil veins was completed, Yuanying of the Constellation Palace came brazenly, carried out ruthless killing and expulsion, and then completely sealed the upgraded area, so that they no longer had any scruples.
When the black fog formation turned into ashes under the catastrophe and the seal was forcibly lifted, they no longer had any worries.
Unprepared, too hasty?
No one cares.
They are only worried that if they don't seize this opportunity, they will have no chance to seize it in the future.
Through the "transparent round mirror", Meng Zhou felt a little complicated when he looked at the calamity cloud that had been triggered not long after the golden armored spirit insect hid, and had never completely dispersed. It had changed its "owners" countless times.
Those tribulation clouds are like clusters of heaven and earth ovens burning with raging flames. The best accumulation of hundreds of years and even longer years in the eight wastelands of the outer world has become "raw materials" and is thrown into this "
In the "furnace of heaven and earth", he endured a narrow escape from death and even more cruel tempering.
Among them, more than 90% of the "raw materials" will be turned into "residues" and turned into "fertilizers".
But after all, there are still "raw materials" that turn into real gold under this cruel temper.
It is conceivable that the number of great demons and peak-level pill-forming monks who are "stagnant" at the peak of the third level due to the limitations of the world in the eight wastelands of the outer world will decrease sharply, and it is even possible that the power of this level will be "emptied".
Instead, there will be more true spirits who have entered the fourth level for the first time and true kings who have entered the Nascent Soul Realm for the first time in the eight wastelands of the outer world.
This is a comprehensive "refresh" for the entire Outland.
All the great changes that occurred in the eight wilderness areas were originally driven by Meng Zhou.
Such changes are naturally what Meng Zhou is happy to see.
There are many reasons for doing this, but the most important one is not any consideration of the pros and cons, just because he wants to.
The changes that are happening now in the Eight Wastelands in the Outer Territory can be regarded as a long-cherished wish coming true.
As for the changes that he didn't like to see, Meng Zhou was also able to accept them.
…
After having a general understanding of the current situation of the Eight Wastelands in the Outer Realm, Meng Zhou also considered the plan to change the "Xingxiu Tianchi".
With a plan in mind, Meng Zhou quickly readjusted the "tadpole patterns" wandering on the "film".
Its abilities in many aspects such as concealment and defense have been revoked.
The right to freely enter and exit the Xingxiu Sea has been retained, and has been further expanded and extended.
——Among the Eight Wastelands in Outland, the eight fourth-level evil places that were upgraded due to his single-handed promotion are also included.
In other words, as long as he transits through the "Xingxiu Tianchi", he can travel back and forth between the Eight Wastelands of the Outer Realm and the Xingxiu Sea at will.
This is much more convenient than teleporting back and forth through the Observation Hall. More importantly, he no longer needs to rely on anyone for his actions. He has complete freedom of movement and autonomy.
After he made such changes, there was still a lot left in the "Tianchi Star Clay".
Therefore, Meng Zhou "wrote" a new rule.
——This new rule gives the first authority controller of "Xingxiu Tianchi", that is, Meng Zhou, the ability to mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to the greatest extent within the scope of Xingxiu Sea.
The birth of this rule stems from Meng Zhou's insecurity.
Now, with the blessing of this new rule, the entire Xingxiu Sea has become his absolute home court.
Although this cannot really make him "invincible in the Xingxiu Sea", it can amplify his strength several times or even ten times within the scope of the Xingxiu Sea.
——After introspection and self-examination, Meng Zhou discovered that the strength of his current combat effectiveness mainly depends on two factors, "law" and "power".
"Dharma" means "the law of heaven and earth".
"Power" refers to the power that he can mobilize and exert, including magic power, qi and blood, spiritual consciousness and soul power, etc.
With the end of the breakthrough, the former has basically stabilized and is unlikely to change much in a short period of time.
He needs to continue to understand and practice, and only after accumulation over time can he improve.
This is also difficult for external forces to influence and intervene.
The newly changed rules of "Xingxiu Tianchi" also affect the aspect of "power".
Under the influence of the new rules, "Xingxiu Tianchi" seems to have become a staff that can bring comprehensive benefits, and it is also like a huge external Dantian, allowing Meng Zhou to use it to mobilize within the scope of Xingxiu Sea.
Far beyond my current "power".
??????55.??????
After such an adjustment, Meng Zhouna's heart, which had been hanging on since his "return", suddenly became much more stable.
…
After re-adjusting the rules of "Xingxiu Tianchi", Meng Zhou's thoughts immediately dispersed into the bodies of the golden-armored spirit insects that were dormant in the eight wastelands of the outer domain.
The dormant golden-armored spirit insects are like inconspicuous grains of stone.
As Meng Zhou's thoughts spread into each of the golden-armored spirit insects, first a ray of golden light flashed across their bodies.
Then, each golden-armored spirit insect quickly became transparent, and its aura was completely restrained, without leaking anything.
These completely invisible golden-armored spirit insects rushed straight into the nearest level 4 evil place where catastrophes continued.
Because they didn't leave too far after successfully overcoming the tribulation, so it naturally doesn't take long to return to this place where they overcame the tribulation.
Firstly, they have restrained their aura very well and reduced their sense of existence to a minimum. Secondly, their speed is very fast, from quietly entering the fourth-level evil place to disappearing silently and leaving, the passage of time
The interval is very short.
So much so that the calamity clouds in the sky did not undergo any changes.
When they reappeared, these golden-armored spirit insects were already floating in front of Meng Zhou.
Now that they have taken shape, they look like extremely delicate and wonderful works of art.
The total number of this swarm of golden beetles gathered from eight wilderness areas was 1,200.
This is a very scary number.
In terms of the individual strength of each golden-armored spirit insect, it is certainly not very impressive. Apart from its own "unbeatable little strong" characteristic, it is difficult to pose a substantial threat to other monks who have also entered the Nascent Soul for the first time.
But this is not just one, this is a total of 1,200.
On average, in every place where people have experienced tribulation, there are equivalent to 150 people who have successfully passed through seventy-nine and sixty-three true spiritual tribulations.
If they come up in groups, not to mention the early Yuanying monks who can't stand it, Meng Zhou estimates that even the monks in the middle Yuanying stage can only scream in front of them.
Meng Zhou stared at the 1,200 golden-armored spirit insects for a while, and then an idea struck him again.
The swarm of golden beetles that originally floated in front of Meng Zhou like a golden cloud suddenly seemed to turn into a wave of golden light.
It rolls up and spirals up.
Soon it condensed into a human body with a golden glow on its surface.
As the golden light faded away, the human body also showed clearer features.
A bald man with lowered eyebrows and lowered eyes, who is not burly in physique, but gives off an extremely powerful and indestructible feeling.
Meng Zhou stared at this "bald man" for a while, and then made some minor adjustments to some details to achieve the effect of "looking easy to get along with, but not easy to mess with".
But what Meng Zhou paid the most attention to was the hands of this "bald man".
At first glance, it looks fair and slender, like a woman's hand.
But just a few more glances will give people the oppressive feeling of "if this hand becomes a fist, any problem can be solved with one punch".
After making these adjustments, Meng Zhou had a thought in his mind, and a small black armor appeared in Meng Zhou's palm.
This is the trophy obtained from Yanzhuang, and it is also the key to performing the "Secret Technique of Infant Substitution".
Although, Meng Zhou had already used the "Secret Method of Cleansing Spirits with Beads" to "clean" the object from the inside out.
But when his cultivation was still at the level of pill formation, Meng Zhou had always been very cautious about the use of this object.
Now, Meng Zhou no longer has any scruples.
Soon, Meng Zhou, who once again used strong and pure power to "clean" it carefully from the inside out, threw the black armor towards the "bald man".
As the black armor approached, the "bald man" suddenly opened his mouth and swallowed the armor into his belly.
The black armor turned around in the belly of the "bald man", and the body surface was gradually "dyed" with a layer of golden light.
Then, the golden light flowed, and the black armor changed, turning into the image of a Q-version "bald man", and finally sat down quietly in the cross-legged position deep between his forehead and eyebrows.
After doing all this, Meng Zhou turned to look in the direction of Lingming Island and smiled slightly.
Things need to be done one by one.
The first problem to be solved is the place of refuge "Xingxiu Tianchi";
Then he recalled those golden-armored spirit insects that were scattered in the eight wastelands of the outer realm and had successfully survived the true spirit tribulation.
After these two most important things are solved, the next thing to be solved is naturally the most urgent and important problem besides these two things.
The figure of the "bald man" in the "Xingxiu Tianchi" flashed and disappeared.
…
Lingming Island.
The meeting hall.
The four Nascent Soul Lords sat opposite each other.
Yes, four.
In addition to "Elder Senior Brother", "Second Senior Sister" and "Fourth Junior Sister", there is another newcomer.
Seating for four is also fun.
The first three people sat on one side, while the other newcomer sat far away opposite them.
If Meng Zhou were here, he would be surprised to see this newcomer.
"Kou Chong!"
At this moment, a slightly surprised voice suddenly sounded in the center of the hall.
This sudden movement shocked the four people in the hall, and they all suddenly stared at the place where the sound came from.
Under the unblinking gaze of the four people, golden light slowly flowed in the void.
In this flow of golden light, a humanoid outline was quickly "outlined".
Outlined by golden light, it seems slow but actually fast.
Soon, a bald man suddenly appeared in the sight of the four people.
The four of them were shocked by this man's sudden appearance and stared at him carefully.
The bald man with a faint smile on his face had already looked at Kou Chong and said in a surprised tone:
"I really didn't expect that you would be the one to overcome the tribulation and break through to the Nascent Soul this time!"
When Kou Chong heard this, he was surprised and shocked, but his face twitched uncontrollably a few times and asked: "Senior... cough... do you know me?"
"Bald Meng Zhou" looked at Kou Chong with a lot of playfulness in his eyes and asked:
"You want to know why?"
"Um."
"How about you satisfy my curiosity first?" "Bald Meng Zhou" asked.
"What?"
"The person who transcended the tribulation and broke through the Nascent Soul, was it Kou Chong? Or was it 'Bo Zheng'?" "Bald Meng Zhou" asked directly.
"ah?!!"
Perhaps because the question came too directly, "Kou Chong" was immediately stunned.
Even the other three people, under the fierce impact of this information, "awoke" and turned around, looking away from the bald man who suddenly appeared, and staring at "Kou Chong" with unusual sharpness. ()
