"As bait?"
Zhang Liang's head tightened, and he knew that something was wrong. Was he able to participate in the battle for foundation building and overhaul?
Zhang Liang gritted his teeth: "Fairy, it is important to improve one's spiritual roots, but I cherish my life even more. If my life is gone, there will be nothing."
Ye Qingling: "I can take your life now, but I am still willing to make a deal with you. You can make a bet and achieve the fourth level of spiritual root. I dare not say that foundation building is promising, but it can be achieved in the later stages of Qi training. If you have good luck, you might be able to achieve perfection in Qi training in your old age. Otherwise, if I die, I will take you with me."
"The fairy said she wouldn't kill me."
"Don't trust what a woman says. A few days ago, I suffered a serious injury and my strength was at a loss. After setting up the formation, I was exhausted. Now, I have recovered a lot."
Zhang Liang: "..."
At this moment, Zhang Liang was not feeling well.
So, if I had taken action a few days ago, wouldn't I have been able to pick up the big leak?
Of course, this cannot be fully believed. Even if a strong foundation builder is exhausted, he may not be able to kill him.
Many thoughts suddenly flashed through Zhang Liang's mind: "Fairy, if I don't help you, I'm afraid you won't be able to protect yourself, right?"
Ye Qingling nodded calmly: "Yes, I can't protect myself, but I am definitely much better than you."
Seeing the change in Zhang Liang's expression, Ye Qingling said: "Actually, you are not at a loss." The cultivator asked, "If you can't even do this test despite all the obstacles, do you think you will be able to gain a foothold in the world of cultivating immortals in the future? Moreover, since I asked you I'm just using it as bait to protect myself, so how can I let you fall so easily?"
Zhang Liang's expression changed: "So I have to choose even if I choose, or I have to choose even if I don't choose?"
"good."
Zhang Liang couldn't help but think of someone's words: Don't trust any good-looking woman. The ancients never deceived me!
Zhang Liang: "The fairy must make an oath of heaven and do his best to keep me safe, otherwise I would rather die than be this bait."
"good!"
Ye Qingling agreed simply, which made Zhang Liang have an illusion. Could it be that Ye Qingling has not recovered much and is still very weak?
Or maybe she's not afraid of the oath of heaven?
However, Zhang Liang didn't dare to bet. If he lost the bet, there would be no future for him.
After a while, Ye Qingling made an oath of heaven, and Zhang Liang was no exception and agreed to serve as bait for Ye Qingling. Otherwise, there will be no restraint between the two people. If one party regrets it, the other party will immediately fall into a passive or dead situation.
Zhang Liang said that if he had known earlier, it would be better to be captured by Wu Xianxian. At least it would be safe in the short term, and he would still have a beautiful girl... uh... forget it.
Zhang Liang also felt uncomfortable when he thought of squid. It's not that Wu Xianxian is not good-looking. To be honest, she has quite a unique appearance, a cute and exotic beauty.
But the truth is, I can’t get over that hurdle in my heart. When he thought about being captured by Wu Xianxian to make a little demon, those ten greasy tentacles would touch him up and down...
"Ugh~"
Ye Qingling frowned and said, "What's wrong with you?"
"Fairy, I may not have eaten for several days, and there is a trace of acid in my stomach."
Ye Qingling then relaxed his brows, tossed a black pill as big as a fingernail and said, "This is the bigu pill. After taking it, you can go without food or drink for seven days."
"Thank you fairy."
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. If you starve to death, no one will help me."
Zhang Liang: "I wonder what the fairy needs me to do specifically? Even if it's just making bait, I have to know what kind of fish it's attracting, right?"
Ye Qingling said lightly: "Thunder Cloud."
Zhang Liang nodded. He was not surprised at all. There were only two foundation-building monks on Qingfeng Island, and there was probably no one else who could hurt Ye Qingling like this.
After guessing that the person Ye Qingling wanted to catch was Lei Yun, Zhang Liang still agreed to make the oath of heaven. One was that he had no choice, and the other was that he had one more chance to turn things around, which was the World Divine Mirror.
Although the seaweed jungle is not optimistic, even if he is captured and taken to the Black Crow Department, he doesn't have to die!
Of course, that's the last option.
Once he makes this choice, the World Divine Mirror will be exposed. I don't know how long it will be before I want to return to Qingfeng Island.
Ye Qingling saw that Zhang Liang was still calm, so he said: "Even if you are making bait, you are not qualified now. I will teach you the art of disguise first. You must master this technique before you have the basic qualifications to act as bait." .”
"Disguise?"
…
January passed by in a hurry.
Zhang Liang was no longer so reserved in front of Ye Qingling.
At this time, opposite Ye Qingling, stood a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties with deep eyes, rough and black skin, and gray hair.
"Fairy, can I pass the disguise skill?"
After Ye Qingling looked at it for a while, his face was expressionless and his teeth opened slightly.
"Change."
In front of Ye Qingling, he saw a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, with spiritual energy flowing under his facial skin and faint spiritual energy in his hair.
In just over ten breaths of time, this middle-aged man's face transformed like plasticine into a fair-skinned young man, with a shrewd look in his eyes.
"Change again."
Not long after, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old appeared in front of Ye Qingling again.
Seeing this, Ye Qingling nodded slightly: "It's not bad. Your learning ability is much better than I expected. I thought it would take you two months to master it and three months to be able to use it proficiently. Unexpectedly, it only took one month." , you can master it to such a level of proficiency."
Zhang Liang: "Thank you, Fairy, for your compliment."
When learning this disguise technique, Zhang Liang learned from Ye Qingling that this was a first-level top-grade disguise technique. Once mastered, few people can detect abnormalities under foundation building.
Even for a strong foundation builder, it would be difficult to detect the fluctuations of spiritual energy if you don't feel it carefully.
It stands to reason that such secret techniques are actually very difficult to master. But for some reason, Zhang Liang seems to have a different talent for controlling spiritual energy.
After using it for a few days, he was able to memorize the seemingly strange method of spiritual energy movement. After a few days, he will be able to use his spiritual energy to coordinate with his facial muscles and nerves to fine-tune his organs.
It felt like pinching your face.
He could make countless faces if he wanted to.
Ye Qingling: "Don't be too happy. This disguise technique only has the effect of disguise. Your height and body shape cannot be changed. This is the biggest weakness of this disguise technique."
After saying that, Ye Qingling said: "However, the current conditions can only be like this. Now, I will teach you the second life-saving secret technique, the secret technique of water escape. This is also a first-level top-grade secret technique. With your fourth level of Qi training Once you have mastered it, you can perform it about three times in a row. A single escape should be able to escape within a range of three to five miles. But it is best not to perform it a third time, because after three times, the spiritual energy in your body will inevitably be exhausted, and you will only be able to escape. You can eat whatever you want."
Zhang Liang was delighted when he heard this. This was really a life-saving secret.
If you have this technique, you can escape at will and then turn into a black fish spirit. Who can find you?
Not to mention Qingfeng Island, this technique is unparalleled. Even at Blackfish Coral Reef, it can help you get out of trouble.
For example, Wu Xianxian, who was caught in the Green Snake Net several times, seemed to have escaped with similar movement skills.
Of course, everything is not absolute. It is said that foundation-building monks have spiritual consciousness, so if they are not careful, if the Black Fish body is also discovered by the opponent, the result may be even worse.
…
Another month has passed by in a hurry.
Zhang Liang had nowhere to test the secret method of water escape, so he couldn't tell how well he practiced it.
But Zhang Liang felt that this so-called secret method was not too difficult, or that most basic methods of cultivating immortals were not too difficult. It's just that the secret of cultivation is very rare. This is the core of the secret technique.
And for two full months, the two of them were trapped in this small cliff cave. They could not eat anything, but they could not give birth to filthy things. On the contrary, they practiced in this situation and their physiques became better.
Ye Qingling explained that the immortal body is immortal and has no stains. This is how ascetics grow. Even in the Qi refining period, if you can continue to practice fasting, you have a chance to live up to 150 years old.
But if you don't build a foundation, you will always be a mortal body, covered in dirt, and your lifespan will not last long.
And when Zhang Liang thought about it, how painful would it be to live without food and practice hard for the rest of his life?
This day.
Ye Qingling took another pill, and Zhang Liang was still practicing with the spiritual energy released, feeling that the energy in his Dantian was much fuller.
He guessed that these two short months of practice might be worth one or two years of hard work.
It is indeed a foundation-building elixir. If you can take it, it will probably help you break through the fifth level of Qi training in a short period of time.
Suddenly, Ye Qingling said: "Okay, you can go out today. I need you to go to Qingfengfang City to buy some materials. I will explain to you the appearance and characteristics of these materials. If you don't see them, you can't ask. Just collect them slowly. They are all ordinary materials, so there shouldn’t be much of a problem in collecting them. Remember, you cannot return here until you have collected the materials.”
Zhang Liangliang's head moved. He knew that the bait plan had already begun.
Zhang Liang couldn't help but said: "Fairy, I don't have any spiritual stones on me!"
Ye Qingling threw a storage bag backhand: "There are thousands of spiritual stones in it. I should be able to buy all the required materials. As expected, I should still have a hundred left, which can be used as your running expenses."
"good."
"By the way, remember there is one thing. The way to buy it is very special. You must buy it last. After buying it, you must run away as fast as possible and come back here with all your strength. Now, I will give you something and teach you how to buy it..."
After listening to this, Zhang Liang pondered for a long time: "What if I fail to run back?"
Ye Qingling said calmly: "This is your second biggest challenge in making bait."
"What is it?"
"trust."
