four people.
Three Martial Saints, one intermediate Martial Saint, and two junior Martial Saints.
There is also a boss lady whose strength is unknown.
Jiang Che also encountered such a strange combination for the first time in his life.
"Lady boss, please go first!"
The brawny man who took the blame laughed, and the proprietress nodded lightly, and then stepped into the Buddhist hall with leisurely steps. She looked at Jiang Che, but she didn't pay much attention.
"Butcher, go collect firewood and prepare for the fire."
Seeing the proprietress stepping into the Buddhist hall, the brawny man who took the blame said to the bearded man.
"okay."
The bearded man named Butcher nodded, then turned around to collect firewood.
"Scholar, take out the boss lady's blanket."
The brawny man who took the blame looked at the other young man with fair skin and said.
"OK."
The scholar nodded, then took out an exquisite blanket from the sedan chair, quickly entered the Buddhist hall, and placed the blanket on the ground.
"Madam boss, please take a seat!"
The scholar smiled.
The landlady nodded slightly and then sat on the blanket.
The strong man who took the blame immediately stepped into the Buddhist hall and came to the proprietress.
"Cook, please order the midnight snack. The landlady must be hungry. She will have a good night's rest after eating the midnight snack."
The scholar looked at the strong man who took the blame and said.
"OK."
The brawny man who took the blame nodded and immediately took off the things on his body.
He set up the iron pot and took out a large bucket of water as if by magic. He washed the iron pot first and then poured the water into the iron pot.
Then, he held a chopping board and a black iron kitchen knife in his hand, and took out a piece of fresh-looking meat again.
Then brush it a few times and cut the meat directly.
At this moment, the butcher from before also carried a lot of dry firewood into the Buddhist hall.
Quickly light a fire, and after a while, the water in the iron pot will boil. Put the cut meat into the iron pot.
Blanch the meat, then cook the meat again, then take out a small gauze bag and put it into the pot.
Immediately, he took out a few more vegetables and put them aside.
"Is there something wrong with these people...?"
Seeing this scene, Jiang Che's heart twitched.
This behavior seems very weird.
But it seems to be harmonious and normal.
Jiang Che was a little confused.
The meat that the cook took out was not ordinary meat, but monster meat full of powerful energy.
As for what kind of monster it is, Jiang Che doesn't know yet.
After a while, the temple was filled with fragrance.
The cook didn't know what kind of secret ingredients he added, but Jiang Che's greed was aroused by the smell.
fragrant!
This is so damn delicious!
Jiang Che sat cross-legged next to the campfire, trying to calm down.
The Chaos Tengu on the side was already staring at the food in the iron pot with gleaming eyes, and the saliva was dripping from his mouth.
The chef's special secret ingredient made Jiang Che's heart flutter.
However, Jiang Che did not issue an order, so the Chaos Tengu could only endure it.
"Madam boss, please take a sip of soup first."
The cook chuckled, took out a delicate small bowl, scooped out a bowl of fragrant broth, and handed it to the proprietress.
The landlady took the broth and took a sip, with a smile on her face.
"Yes, my skills have improved."
The landlady looked at the cook and made a comment.
"Hey, the boss lady can drink it if she likes it." The cook smiled.
"Is it ready? I'm hungry too." The butcher looked into the pot and said with bright eyes.
"Well, that's all. Let's all have a bowl." The cook laughed, and then took out several large bowls, filling each person's bowl.
"Little brother, do you want to drink?"
The landlady suddenly spoke and looked at Jiang Che who was beside the bonfire not far away.
"Thank you, no need." Jiang Che shook his head.
He was very greedy, but he could still bear it.
He still has this bit of determination.
Not knowing the origins of these people, he was still wary.
"Brother, please have a bowl. The chef's skills are unparalleled in the world."
The butcher said while drinking the soup.
"Even the emperor can't drink this soup, little brother, don't miss it."
The scholar also spoke, with a kind look on his face.
"Come on, little brother, let's make a bowl and try my handiwork."
The cook smiled, then took out another large bowl, scooped out a large bowl, and brought it directly in front of him.
The aroma was so fragrant that Jiang Che's heart skipped a beat, but he still held it back.
"It's not good to get paid for your work and to live for free."
"You little brother, why are you so polite? It's just a bowl of soup, it's nothing. Come on, drink it, you're welcome." The cook said and handed the bowl directly to Jiang Che.
Under the kindness, Jiang Che finally drank.
Of course, he also checked it carefully before drinking it.
There was no special substance, and since he had a body immune to all poisons, he didn't have much to worry about.
After taking a sip, the delicious taste reaches Tianling Gai.
His eyes lit up.
A mouthful of soup seemed to make the energy and blood in his body much calmer.
"Little brother, how are you?"
The cook looked at him with a smile.
"One must!"
Jiang Che gave a thumbs up.
This was what he said from the bottom of his heart.
It smells delicious and becomes even more delicious when you drink it.
This craftsmanship is nothing to say.
"Haha, just drink if you like. There's plenty here, so I won't come back again."
The cook laughed loudly.
"Woof woof~"
Beside Jiang Che, the Chaos Tengu looked directly at him.
Seeing this, Jiang Che poured a small bowl for it.
The Chaos Tengu immediately started licking it.
The excited tail kept wagging.
——
After drinking a bowl, the cook enthusiastically poured him another bowl of soup.
After a few bowls, the atmosphere in the Buddhist hall became lively.
"Little brother, I see you are also a practitioner, why are you here in the middle of the night?"
The scholar asked while sipping the soup.
"I've been here for a while, and it's already getting late, so I'll stay here for the night."
Jiang Che said.
"That's it."
The scholar nodded.
"How many of them are businessmen from Yu State?"
Jiang Che said.
"No, I just came to Yu State to do business." The scholar shook his head.
"Those people must have come from far away, right?"
Jiang Che said while drinking the soup.
"It is indeed far away. It comes from Central China." The scholar smiled.
"Zhongzhou!!"
Jiang Che's eyes flashed with strange color.
Zhongzhou!
It’s Middle-earth again!
What kind of prosperous scene is this place known as the Divine Continent of the Great Thousand Worlds?
Martial Saint carries the sedan chair, is everyone in Zhongzhou so awesome?
"I've finished drinking. After you finish drinking, clean up." The landlady suddenly put down the bowl and said.
"OK."
The three nodded.
——
A "late night snack" is over.
The Buddha's Light became quiet.
The landlady lay lazily on the blanket, while the cook, butcher, and scholar sat aside.
A very harmonious scene.
But Jiang Che always felt something strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange.
"Little brother, you are not a simple dog. If I read correctly, this dog should have an extraordinary bloodline, right?"
At this time, the butcher spoke and stared at the Chaos Tengu.
"It's just ordinary, it just has a bit of spirit beast blood." Jiang Che said with a smile.
"I'm afraid it's not an ordinary spiritual beast." The butcher blinked.
"Shut up, the boss lady is going to take a rest. If you keep talking, be careful of the boss lady whipping you."
The cook looked at the butcher and said.
Seeing this, the butcher immediately shut up.
Looking at this scene, Jiang Che's eyes fell on the graceful landlady in the blanket.
He was even more curious about the true identity of this group of people.
This boss lady must be a big boss.
Although I don't know what the strength of the landlady is, I can tell just from the butcher, scholar and cook that this landlady is definitely extraordinary.
And not only is he strong, I'm afraid his identity is also unusual.
…
The night passed quickly.
It was just dawn, and there was still mist in the mountains, when Jiang Che woke up from his rest.
The bonfire goes out.
At this time, the Chaos Tengu on the side also woke up.
Jiang Che glanced at the fog-shrouded scenery of clouds and mountains outside, and slowly let out a breath.
As soon as they got up, three people sitting at the already extinguished bonfire not far away woke up at the same time.
On the blanket, the plump landlady also moved and stood up gracefully.
"How did the boss's wife sleep?" The cook looked at the boss's wife and asked with a smile.
"Not bad." The landlady nodded lightly and glanced at Jiang Che inadvertently.
"Little brother, are you ready to leave?"
The cook looked at Jiang Che and asked.
"Yes, I will continue to travel." Jiang Che nodded.
"That's it, that's okay, little brother, take care."
The cook nodded.
"Take care, everyone, and go ahead. We will meet again in the mountains and rivers. See you again someday."
Jiang Che bowed.
"Haha, okay!" The cook laughed loudly.
Jiang Che didn't stay too long, and then, the Chaos Tengu jumped on his shoulders, and Jiang Che followed him to the Buddhist hall.
Leaving the abandoned temple, he shrunk to an inch and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"This little brother is quite interesting."
In the Buddhist hall, looking at Jiang Che who had disappeared, the cook said.
"It's quite interesting, and he looks pretty good."
The landlady nodded slightly.
After hearing this, the three of them looked at each other.
The cook looked at the landlady and said, "Lady landlady, do you want us to catch him and keep him company?"
"You three are no match for him." The landlady said calmly.
"This person is very powerful."
"If you can't beat him, forget it." The butcher said bitterly.
"If the boss lady likes it, you can give it a try." The cook said firmly.
"Who do you think I am?" the landlady asked, squinting at the cook.
“Don’t the boss lady think he’s pretty good?”
The cook blinked and said.
"Then I still think the Emperor of Daxia is quite good. Would you like to grab it for me too?"
The landlady said angrily.
cook:"……"
"Then...that may not be possible. The Emperor of Daxia is too powerful." The cook stammered.
Boss lady: "..."
"Okay, pack up and get ready to go." The landlady said and stepped out of the Buddhist hall.
The three of them looked at each other, packed up the things on the ground, and stepped out of the Buddhist hall.
——
The day passed quickly.
Jiang Che came to another place in the Yu Kingdom.
Apart from meeting the strange combination from Central Continent yesterday, Jiang Che has not forgotten it yet.
This magical combination made him unforgettable.
Especially the boss lady.
The unknown strength also made him wary.
However, one day passed without any accidents, and Jiang Che relaxed a little.
"Um?"
"There's a situation!"
In the cloud sky, Jiang Che suddenly stopped, stood on the white clouds, and looked down.
His eyes were set on a barren mountain.
This barren mountain looks nothing different on the surface, but in fact there are coffins and damaged tombs scattered everywhere.
Powerful Yin energy permeates the air.
The entire barren mountain looked gloomy.
A ray of yin-yang divine light bloomed in his eyes. Under the yin-yang eyes, a tomb deep in the barren mountain caught Jiang Che's attention.
"Zombies..."
Under the eyes of Yin and Yang, Jiang Che quickly gained insight.
In the next breath, his figure disappeared into the sky.
The figure fell into the barren mountain, and Jiang Che stood in front of a grave in the mountain.
There are overgrown weeds on the grave.
Jiang Che's eyes fell on a dark hole next to the grave.
From the entrance of this cave, powerful corpse energy filled the air.
On his shoulders, the Chaos Tengu's eyes also became serious.
Jiang Che looked at the entrance of the cave and a wisp of energy and blood was released instantly.
"boom--!"
The energy of blood was released, and in the next breath, the hole exploded, and a purple figure appeared in Jiang Che's eyes.
It's a purple zombie.
Wearing broken armor, it seems that this purple zombie was like a general when he was alive.
"Zi Zhan..."
His eyes narrowed.
The purple zombie is already comparable to the Martial Saint.
Zombies, at their lowest, are zombies.
That is the most common zombie.
The movement is slow and the threat is not great.
And in the previous step, that is Baijiang.
It's stronger than Xingzheng, and its defense power is very abnormal.
And above the white stiffness, there is the green stiffness.
They are no longer just bloodthirsty zombies who only know how to kill.
Have some intelligence.
Above the green stiffness is the red stiffness.
This type of zombie already has certain magical powers.
As for purple stiffness, it is even more terrifying.
He has strong spiritual intelligence and extraordinary magical powers.
One step further, that is the pinnacle of zombies, Drought Demon!
The golden zombie is comparable to the thunder calamity of human immortals.
As soon as the drought demon comes out, the red land will be thousands of miles away!
A severe drought in the world is a disaster!
But this type of zombie is almost a legendary existence.
Yes, but that's very rare.
Purple stiffness is hard to come across.
Not to mention the Drought Demon Golden Zombie that is comparable to the Human Immortal Thunder Tribulation.
Jiang Che estimated that the purple zombie in front of him was at least an intermediate martial saint level being.
Very powerful.
However, he should be able to kill him.
The strongest thing about zombies is their physical body.
Zi Zheng's body is even more abnormal.
The changes in zombies at different levels are also very amazing.
"Humanity……"
"How courageous you are to dare to release your energy and blood to attract this king!"
Zi Zheng looked at him and uttered human words.
"Zizzi——!"
Jiang Che didn't talk nonsense, he raised his hand and the light flashed, and a terrifying lightning struck the purple zombie instantly.
Killing this purple zombie will definitely be another Zhouzi-level reward, and it will definitely not run away.
The Lightning Thunder Fist was activated, and the terrifying lightning instantly enveloped the purple zombie.
But the next second, the purple zombie actually absorbed the electric light, and then opened his mouth and spit it out, returning the absorbed electric light directly to Jiang Che.
Use Zi's spear to attack Zi's shield!
Jiang Che's pupils shrank slightly, he raised his hand and unleashed a lightning fist.
"boom--!!"
The electric light collided, and a huge wave shocked the surroundings.
"Shua——!"
Zi Zheng's figure moved and came to Jiang Che at a terrifying speed.
“Buzz——!”
Golden light rose up around Jiang Che, and the Ten Thousand Demons Golden Body was instantly activated, and majestic power blasted out directly.
"Bang——!"
A punch collided, and the terrifying power exploded instantly. Zi Zhan's figure was shaken back, and Jiang Che retreated more than ten feet.
But in the next second, Zi Zheng, who had been repelled, suddenly came forward to kill him.
Purple light bloomed, slamming into Jiang Che with enough power to destroy everything.
Without any time to think, Jiang Che instantly revealed the Sky Demon Life Blade.
"clang!!!"
The knife fell brazenly, but he still underestimated the zombie's defense.
The Sky Demon Creature Blade did not cut off the blade, but only made a deep wound.
Purple liquid flows out.
"It's really perverted."
Jiang Che's pupils shrank. Although the Heavenly Demon Life Blade was not activated, the mid-grade Taoist weapon's knife failed to cut off easily, which was enough to prove how terrifying Zi Zhan was.
"Roar--!!"
Zi Zheng instantly let out a painful roar.
"Chi——"
And at this moment, the Chaos Tengu spit out a breath of chaos, which instantly fell on Zi Zhan's body.
"boom--!!"
The Chaos Tengu's natal magical power exploded with astonishing power, directly blasting Zi Zhan away and hitting a tomb, instantly destroying the tomb.
However, it still did not cause strong damage to Zi Zhan.
The physical body is too perverted.
This is also a unique advantage that zombies have.
“Buzz——!!!”
At this moment, Jiang Che also activated the Heavenly Demon Life Blade.
The majestic zhenqi poured in, and the sky demon creature blade burst out with a dangerous breath.
The sword energy formed a huge sword that was more than ten feet in substance.
"cut!!"
Locking on Zi Zhan, Jiang Che didn't hesitate at all and struck down with his sword.
The huge sword energy of more than ten feet also completely enveloped Zi Zhan.
"boom!!!"
With one slash, the entire barren mountain trembled, and half of the mountain was destroyed with one slash.
dusty.
The mountain trembled, as if it was about to collapse completely.
"Not dead yet!"
Jiang Che was shocked when he noticed Zi Zhan's aura.
With this sword, it is easy to kill junior martial saints and early souls.
After reaching the peak of the golden elixir, Jiang Che's power to activate the Heavenly Demon Life Blade became even more terrifying, far from what it was before.
But this knife still didn't kill Zi Zhan.
"Shua——!"
He shrunk to an inch and exploded in an instant, and in the next breath, he came to Zi Zhan.
Before he could fully respond, the Heavenly Demon Soul Blade burst out with powerful aura again.
"Pfft——!"
The knife fell suddenly, and a purple head was cut off directly.
Purple liquid spurted out.
"Bang!!"
The purple zombie fell to the ground instantly and was killed with a knife.
And at this moment, the demon book in his mind, which had not seen any movement for a long time, shook.
Flipping through the pages, Zi Zhan appeared on the demon album.
A purple light group rose, and dark fonts appeared in the eyes.
The book of demons gave an evaluation: Grade 8 of Zhou Zi!
Jiang Che's eyes also burst out with a ray of light.
Zhou Zi eighth grade reward!
This evaluation made him very satisfied.
After coming back to his senses and looking at the headless zombie in front of him, Jiang Che raised his hand, and the golden elixir true fire swept across, wrapping Zi Zheng's body and burning brightly.
When it was completely destroyed, Jiang Che left with the Chaos Tengu.
Most of the barren mountain was destroyed, and the dust and smoke shook the earth.
Zi Zhan was indeed powerful, but he was still killed.
Among the clouds.
Jiang Che sat cross-legged on the white clouds, his consciousness deep in his mind.
After more than a year, I finally got my first reward.
Looking at the purple light group in his mind, Jiang Che was also very excited.
Taking a deep breath to calm down the turmoil in his heart, Jiang Che began to extract as soon as the thought came to his mind.
"Buzz~"
There was a flash of light, and a stone with a faint light appeared in his eyes.
Like a gem.
But it is different, there is a special aura, and there is a special pattern on the stone, which looks very mysterious.
"What's this?"
Jiang Che was slightly startled.
And at this moment, the font appeared in his eyes.
Earth Elemental Stone: An elemental stone containing the essence of the earth can enhance the small world, gather the earth essence of the world, and gather the earth's essence to form the spiritual veins of the small world. The longer the time, the stronger the spiritual veins formed...
"???"
Improve your little world!
Looking at the font displayed in his eyes, Jiang Che blinked.
Can the small world derive spiritual veins?
So magical?
Jiang Che came back to his senses.
According to the information, this earth elemental stone can not only enhance the small world, but also derive spiritual veins in the small world.
Moreover, the spiritual veins formed by the Earth Essence Stone can continuously improve the spiritual veins through the Earth Essence Stone, and this improvement is much faster than the improvement of ordinary spiritual veins.
However, it is not infinitely improved. The energy of the thousand earth veins gathered by an earth element stone is limited. The higher you go, the more difficult it becomes.
However, improving to level 8 or 9 is definitely very fast. After level 7, it slows down, but you can still continue to improve.
And the most important point is that he can intercept part of the spiritual veins derived from the earth elemental stone and use it. The earth elemental stone can continuously gather the earth elemental energy of the world and restore the remaining spiritual veins again.
Equivalent to the ability to regenerate.
As long as the earth elemental stone is not destroyed, interception can continue.
However, there is an upper limit. Restoring it once will consume part of the Earth Essence Stone. The upper limit is that it can be restored up to ten times.
After ten interceptions, the Earth Essence Stone will be completely exhausted, and then the derived spiritual veins will no longer be able to be restored.
Although it is not unlimited, this ability is quite abnormal.
"small world……"
"The Mountain and River Map is also a small world, so it should be okay."
Jiang Che's eyes lit up and he looked at the earth essence stone in his hand. As soon as he thought about it, the next breath, the earth essence stone appeared in the mountain and river map.
"call out--!"
Under the control of Zhenqi, the earth elemental stone was driven directly into the ground.
Immediately, Jiang Che watched carefully.
In his expectation, there were vibrations in the earth, as if an earth dragon turned over.
The Earth Elemental Stone that entered the earth emits an earthy yellow light.
Immediately, Jiang Che could feel a special power coming from the Mountains and Rivers Map. This power was constantly drawing out the vitality of the earth.
Just can't see.
At this moment, in the land of Mountains and Rivers, a long spiritual snake appeared.
Ninth grade spiritual veins!
Almost in a moment, a ninth-grade spiritual vein was condensed.
This ninth-grade spiritual vein is nestled in front of the earth elemental stone.
The khaki light emitted by the earth elemental stone reflects on this ninth-grade spiritual vein. This ninth-grade spiritual vein is growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Growing inch by inch.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Che was amazed.
"According to this speed of improvement, within ten days, I will be able to obtain an eighth-grade spiritual vein..."
Thoughts came to his mind.
Jiang Che's heart instantly became hot.
If this continues, within a few months, under the influence of the earth elemental stone, a seventh-grade spiritual vein will be obtained!
Although the improvement of the seventh-grade spiritual veins is very slow, but... after reaching the level of the seventh-grade spiritual veins, he can intercept part of it and feed it to the World Tree.
The Earth Elemental Stone's recovery limit is ten times.
Then he can guarantee that the Pure Yang Fruit will be born.
