The Tianchi at the top of the peak is filled with clear waves.
A gleaming sword light and a platinum divine light touched in the air, and there was a sound like gold and iron clashing, and they flew backwards.
Feijian was not discouraged. He spun in the air and stopped his retreat. Before he could attack again, the platinum divine light was already chasing after him. Feijian knew that it was powerful, so he turned around, trying to avoid the sharp edge and hit the enemy's head directly. .
At this time, Yuan Hao and Zhou Jun were competing in Taoism. Seeing Yuan Hao turning the flying sword to kill him, Zhou Jun smiled and pinched the magic sword. He saw the platinum divine light in the air shaking and making a clatter. The bento sky turned into a mighty water color, crashing down like a tidal wave and sucking the flying sword into it.
"What?" Yuan Hao has competed with Zhou Jun once or twice. He is not Zhou Jun's opponent, but the two of them are not trying to compete, but mainly test Taoism, so Zhou Jun does not focus on cultivation. In order to suppress him, the two of them fought back and forth several times.
But this was the first time Yuan Hao had seen such a change in Zhou Jun's Taoism. By accident, Feijian was involved in it.
This was not over yet, Yuan Hao's flying sword was suppressed, and the water-colored light swept over in a mighty manner, trying to suppress his body as well. Yuan Hao hurriedly set up his sword escape, rushed up, and flew over the waves to escape.
Seeing this situation, Zhou Jun took his time and pointed out the magic technique in his hand. He saw that the Taoist magic changed again, and the water color swirled up into the sky like a tornado, and when it reached mid-air, it had turned into a green light.
Thousands of vine-like green ropes grew, intertwined, and instantly turned into a big net. Under the hood, no matter how Yuan Hao urged his sword energy, he could not cut them all. Within a moment, Yuan Hao was bundled into a ball. , hung up.
Zhou Jun stood up and laughed loudly: "Junior brother, how are the changes in the interaction between my five elements?"
Yuan Hao curled his lips and said: "Congratulations, senior brother, your Taoist skills have made further progress."
"Fortunately, my uncle's careful guidance has enabled me to improve my Taoism so much." Zhou Jun shook his head and said, "It's a pity that the hundred days are about to end. If I can continue to practice under my uncle, sooner or later I will be able to master the Five Elements Yuanji Shen." Just practice to the state of 'unity'."
Yuan Hao said: "So can you put me down first?"
Zhou Jun pretended to be surprised and said: "Huh? It turns out that I haven't put my junior brother down yet. I'm sorry."
Yuan Hao said angrily: "You'd better refine the golden elixir quickly. If I catch up, you will definitely end badly."
The two quarreled for a while before Zhou Jun let Yuan Hao down and walked side by side to the cave. Yuan Hao said: "After bidding farewell to Master, senior brother still has to go out for travel."
"It's natural..." Zhou Jun answered halfway, and suddenly looked up, and saw the sea of clouds parting, and a ray of light falling on the top of the mountain, revealing a tall and thin Taoist in his thirties, holding a fly whisk, and saw two people. When he arrived in front of the house, he bowed and asked, "Are you two disciples of Senior Brother Xu?"
Zhou Jun glanced at Yuan Hao, and Yuan Hao took a step forward, clasped his hands and said, "Disciple Yuan Hao is the disciple of Master. I wonder what this uncle's instructions are?"
The tall and thin Taoist priest showed a smile on his face, took out a greeting card, and said: "It turns out to be Senior Nephew Yuan. I would like to ask Junior Nephew to inform me that Dong Guoyi wants to see Senior Brother."
Although Yuan Hao didn't know where this person came from, he didn't dare to neglect him. He hurriedly took the invitation and said, "Yes, please wait a moment, uncle."
The tall and thin Taoist priest saluted with one hand and said, "Thank you, Master Nephew Yuan."
Yuan Haoli responded, "I don't dare." He took the greeting card in his hand and hurriedly opened the door and entered the house. Zhou Jun hurriedly chased after him.
Dong Guoyi leisurely enjoyed the scenery. After waiting for a moment, Yuan Hao came out again and said respectfully: "Uncle Dong Guo, Master invites you to come into the house to talk."
Dong Guoyi flicked the fly whisk, leaned on his arm, smiled and nodded, and then followed Yuan Hao into the house.
The hall has long lost its original messy look. The gold, silver and stone chairs that Xu Zhuang inspired only lasted for more than a month at most, and most of them collapsed into an inexplicable mixture of gold, wood, stone and wood. Only a few of them retreated. Back to the original state.
Now that the hall has been replaced with all-color Cangyun wood furniture, Dong Guoyi didn't notice anything was wrong. Following Yuan Hao into the hall, Yuan Hao said: "Master will be here in a moment. Please wait a moment, uncle."
Dong Guoyi nodded and took a seat in the hall. Yuan Hao quickly served tea and cakes. Dong Guoyi said: "Senior Brother Xu and I are old friends. There is no need for my nephew to entertain us. He can go on his own."
Yuan Hao hurriedly said that he did not dare to be rude, but Dong Guoyi could not persuade him any more. He poured the tea, took a sip, and praised: "This is Yushu tea. Senior Brother Xu has really good taste."
"Junior brother, you are so complimentary." Suddenly a clear voice came from above the main seat. Dong Guoyi was slightly startled, then he realized that Xu Zhuang had already sat down in the hall at some time. He quickly raised his hands and called out: "See you?" Senior brother."
Xu Zhuang smiled slightly and said, "Junior brother Dongguo, long time no see."
"Senior brother, don't be surprised." Dong Guoyi cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Senior brother, I also know that Kujie Mountain has very heavy responsibilities. When I have free time, I always meet my senior brother in seclusion, so I have been unable to visit him for a long time."
Xu Zhuang said: "It doesn't matter. We, the cultivators, have been passing by for a long time, and it's not too late for my junior brother to come."
Dongguo Yi smiled and responded to what his senior brother said. The two chatted casually. Dongguo Yicai said: "I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Today I came to visit my senior brother. I have a piece of news to tell my senior brother. At the same time, I also have a news to tell my senior brother." I’m sorry.”
Xu Zhuang was not surprised and simply said: "Junior brother, that's what he said."
Dong Guoyi nodded and said, "I heard that senior brother has inquired about the layout of the refining rooms in the Earth Fire Palace recently?"
Xu Zhuang pondered for a moment, realizing that he had nothing to say, and then said: "Yes, I originally wanted to refine a magical weapon, but the Earth Fire Palace will not allow the refining room to come out in a short time."
In the past, Xu Zhuang created the Taoist art of Xu Xing Xuan Creation Dragon, and together with Yan Renhe, they deduced a magical weapon that could be used to perform the Taoist art. In Xu Zhuang's vision, this magical weapon was needed in order to bring out the effects of his creation. The real power envisioned when creating the Dragon Dao Technique of Xu Xingxuan was only hindered by the practice and refining of precious materials, and it has never been possible.
To this day, Xu Zhuang has refined the Nascent Soul, and Zhou Jun has given the rarest main material Yuanyuan Jade Gui, so he has thought about it and went to the Earth Fire Palace to inquire about the layout of the refining room. If he arrives in time, , you might as well try to refine this magic weapon.
Dong Guoyi said with a smile: "Senior brother also knows that the Divine Continent is not very peaceful recently. There are many high-ranking masters and elders in the sect who want to refine magic weapons for self-defense, so the refining room in the Earth Fire Palace is in high demand."
Xu Zhuang nodded. He also knew that the current situation had caused a lot of rumblings in the sect. Therefore, not only the refining room of the Earth Fire Palace, but also the elixirs, magical objects, and treasure materials in the sect were in short supply for a while. Although Xu Zhuang returned to the sect, , there will be time to redeem Yuanyuan Jade Gui in the future, but it is expected that such top-quality mana and prohibition carriers should be in even greater shortage.
Of course, with his current status, as long as he shows his needs, there will be a clever person like Zhou Jun to find them for him.
Seeing that Xu Zhuang did not deny what he said, Dong Guoyi said: "I have also inquired for my senior brother. If my senior brother is in urgent need, I can get a refining room for my senior brother within three years, but I am afraid I can't afford to waste my senior brother's time." .”
Xu Zhuang smiled slightly, didn't he know what Dong Guoyi said, not to mention that with his status, there are many monks in the sect who have already been ranked in the Earth Fire Palace and have one or two years left, and are willing to give up their qualifications in exchange for He asked Zhuang for a favor, but it was beyond his expected time, so he didn't do it like this.
So Xu Zhuang only said: "Brother, I have important things to do in the near future. The three-year period is really too late. If you have any news about me, junior brother, please speak up."
Dong Guoyi was not annoyed when he saw this, he cupped his hands and said: "Yes, senior brother, senior brother also knows that my Yunmeng Daze is in the water realm, and there is insufficient fire energy. There is only an earth fire palace, and the ancestor uses great magic power to communicate with the earth lungs. It is forcibly made for the disciples to use in refining the multiplier, but the land of China is so vast, there is no need for the natural earth lung fire veins to be used."
"Oh?" Xu Zhuang asked in surprise: "Could it be that junior brother has such a way?"
Dong Guoyi said with a smile: "Exactly, when my father traveled to the Divine Continent in the past, he accidentally found a fire vein that went straight to the lungs of the earth. However, my father neither knew how to refine weapons nor practiced fire, so he only recorded it and never had a good life. Utilize it, I heard that senior brother was in urgent need of earth fire, so I thought of this."
Without waiting for Xu Zhuang's response, he took out a leather scroll from his sleeve and presented it to him, saying, "Senior brother, look at this. This is the map that records the location of the fire vein."
"Junior brother is interested." Xu Zhuang took the map, opened it in no hurry, put it on the case, and asked: "Junior brother just said that he would come to visit, there is one more thing, you might as well tell him together."
Seeing this, Dong Guoyi had no choice but to say: "I don't hide it from my senior brother. I came here this time to ask my senior brother to help me."
Xu Zhuang nodded and motioned for him to elaborate.
In the past, Xu Zhuang went to Kujie Mountain and accepted some favors from Dong Guoyi. Today, he sent the map of the earth's lungs and fire veins. It may be targeted, but it can be regarded as intentional. If what he wants is within the scope of Xu Zhuang's ability, perhaps Zhuang did not hesitate to help, but of course it was limited to this.
Dong Guoyi cupped his hands and said: "Senior brother also knows that the responsibilities in Kujie Mountain are very heavy and the conditions are poor. I have been in Kujie Mountain for a hundred years and I have never been able to adjust..."
Xu Zhuang raised his eyebrows. It is better to say that he is not allowed to be promoted. Although the responsibilities in Kujie Mountain are very heavy and the conditions are poor, his cultivation skills and external supplies are all top-notch. Ruodong Guoyi just wants to change his responsibilities, or retire and become idle. , but very simple.
Dong Guoyi continued: "I know that my senior brother has already cultivated the Nascent Soul, and I think he will soon be appointed to the Third Hall and take charge of the sect's authority, so I boldly ask my senior brother for a decree."
"I see." Xu Zhuang smiled. It was just a transfer order. If he really served in the third palace, it would not be difficult to handle.
"It's a pity that my brother has not received the order to serve in the third palace." Xu Zhuang said.
Dongguo Yi was startled and said: "This? As far as I know, there is indeed a decree in the sect ordering Yuanying Zhenzhen to serve in the third palace..."
"This is a good matter." Xu Zhuang said calmly: "But I still have other important matters to deal with, and it is still unclear whether I will serve in the Third Palace in the future."
"This... this." Dongguo Yi sighed: "In that case, it's my younger brother Meng Lang. Please don't be surprised, senior brother."
Xu Zhuang smiled, but said: "But what junior brother wants is simple. I have two methods."
Dong Guoyi's eyebrows trembled and he asked in a deep voice: "Senior brother, please speak."
Xu Zhuang said: "First, there is indeed a decree issued in the sect. As a brother, there are also a few familiar true disciples who have served in the three halls. The junior brother has been guarding the Kujie Mountain for hundreds of years. There is no merit but hard work. If I write a book for my brother, I can also do it for my junior brother. Get this done.”
But in this way, Xu Zhuang's favor will be wasted. Dong Guoyi also knew this very well, and asked: "Senior brother, is there another method?"
Xu Zhuang smiled and said: "Looking at my junior brother's merits, I have already refined the gold and mercury. If I can refine the Nascent Soul, I will naturally be promoted."
Dongguo Yi's eyes were shocked, he cupped his hands and said, "Please teach me, senior brother."
Xu Zhuang took out a bronze dendrobium from his sleeve, put it on the table, and said lightly: "This thing is called Tianjing Zhensha. How much does it take for me to refine it into Yuanying?"
Dong Guoyi's eyes fell on the Tianjing True Sand, his heart pounding like a drum, and he responded: "If I have three handfuls of this sand, within twenty years, I am sure to refine it into a Nascent Soul."
Xu Zhuang was slightly surprised. Dong Guoyi's meritorious deeds were deeper than he expected, but this was more to his liking, so he said: "Okay, junior brother can take this Dendrobium Zhensha first. After five years, I will I will take two more dendrobiums to give to my junior brother."
Dong Guoyi took a deep breath. He was an exquisite person. Naturally, he knew that this kind of benefit could not be obtained by relying on his favors. After thinking about it, he responded in a deep voice: "With the kindness of senior brother, I am willing to use Taoism to I swear with my heart, if I can refine the Nascent Soul, I will look forward to it with my senior brother as my head."
Xu Zhuang smiled slightly and said: "Junior brother's words are serious, please keep the real sand."
He is not from a noble family, nor does he have any disciples from an elite family. Even though he is in a high and powerful position today, he does not have many subordinates to motivate him. Although he has no intention of establishing a force, the current situation in the Divine Continent is treacherous, and there is absolutely no need to employ people. , so he decided to conquer Dong Guoyi.
And Dong Guoyi also has his own considerations. Although Xu Zhuang has not joined the Third Hall, it will only happen sooner or later. There will naturally be few people in the future. If he can join Xu Zhuang's staff in advance, his status will naturally rise in the future. Even if Xu Zhuang can refine the soul, he may not be able to ascend to heaven. .
Dong Guoyi solemnly took the Tianjing True Sand and responded in a deep voice: "Thank you, senior brother, for the reward. I will definitely refine the Nascent Soul as soon as possible to serve senior brother."
Xu Zhuang said: "Junior brother's words are enough."
Dong Guoyi nodded, put away the Tianjing Zhensha, breathed a sigh of relief, talked with Xu Zhuang again, and left in a hurry.
Xu Zhuang sat in the hall, meditated for a moment, touched a little spiritual light with his hand, and flew into the depths of the cave. Not long after, Zhou Jun and Yuan Hao hurried out, saluted and met Xu Zhuang, and Xu Zhuang said bluntly: "Ninety-nine of the hundred days have passed, and I still have other important matters. You can go on your own after today, and don't fall into practice."
Zhou Jun and Yuan Hao had already expected it, so they hurriedly bowed down and said, "Thank you, Uncle Master/Master."
Xu Zhuang nodded and was about to shoo away the two of them, but Zhou Jun took a step forward, held a jade slip in both hands, bowed and said: "Under the guidance of my uncle for a hundred days, my disciple has benefited a lot. I would like to express my gratitude to you. This is the disciple’s exquisite selection from the Five Elements Sanren inheritance, and I ask my uncle to accept it.”
Xu Zhuang was slightly surprised, looked at Zhou Jun, and said slowly: "You are interested." He took the jade slip, casually placed it with the leather scroll, and asked lightly: "I heard that after leaving the mansion, , are you going to travel to the Divine Continent?"
Zhou Jun responded respectfully: "Yes, uncle."
Xu Zhuang nodded, and with a little finger, a five-color spiritual light flew into Zhou Jun's body, and he said lightly: "This is my 'Five Elements Escape Technique' talisman. If you trigger this talisman, you can escape thousands of miles away in a moment. There are all attributes of the Five Elements that cannot be borrowed and escaped, so I will protect your way."
Zhou Jun was overjoyed and quickly thanked Xu Zhuang.
Xu Zhuang looked at Yuan Hao again. Yuan Hao's scalp tightened, and he cursed in his heart: Zhou Jun, a bastard, doesn't give me a gift, doesn't it mean that I, as a disciple, am not as filial as my nephew, and he...
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhuang asked, "Does Hao'er have any thoughts of traveling?"
"Ah?" Yuan Hao said hesitantly: "Master, this disciple feels that his merits are not enough, so he stays in the sect and cultivates diligently..."
"That's fine." Xu Zhuang pointed, a handful of spiritual stones fell into Yuan Hao's bag, and said calmly: "Have a good time practicing."
Without waiting for a response, Yuan Hao said to the two of them: "Go." With a wave of his sleeves, the two of them felt their eyes flicker, but they were already out of the cave.
