In just half a day, the familiar forest area had become unrecognizable.
There are scattered branches everywhere, and many old trees are also scarred.
The slightly thinner ones are cut off at the waist.
Zhao Qing exhausted the last trace of spiritual energy in his body and performed a total of thirty sets of Mountain Splitting Techniques.
Successful eighteen times.
The realm of Ax Jue has been broken through.
[Genzi·Splitting Mountain Technique: Entering the Hall·Comprehension (9/100)]
In fact, it was nothing when Zhao Qing practiced the first few times, but after the breakthrough, the ax technique became much smoother than before.
It even feels like it's completely different from the original technique.
Although the attack intensity has decreased, it consumes less spiritual energy and is easier to control. You won't have to dodge when the ax flies back.
Zhao Qing was breathing heavily and was already sweating profusely.
Looking at the mess on the ground in front of him, he murmured to himself: "It's not built. We have to change the place in a few days, otherwise the forest will be destroyed sooner or later."
Military tactics require less spiritual energy, and proficiency accumulates faster.
But the physical exertion is huge, not to mention all the various consecutive movements, some moves even require using a big tree as a target and torturing him to death.
"If you can successfully complete twenty sets of ax tricks every day, you will be able to break through to the next level in a few days. I don't know what will happen to the next level..."
Compared with the proficiency of the Qi Gathering Pill, "Splitting Mountain Technique" can definitely be regarded as catching up from behind, and it is almost catching up in just one day.
Zhao Qing simply packed up the easily portable wood, took it with him and went directly down the mountain to go home.
Although there are no monsters in the mountains anymore, it always makes people feel not particularly safe when the sky gets dark.
In addition, even though Zhao Qing wanted to quickly accumulate proficiency in the Ax Technique, he knew that this was not realistic.
Practicing the ax technique requires spiritual energy. If the spiritual energy is exhausted by practicing axe, you will not be able to open the furnace to refine elixirs at night, which will directly cut off your financial resources.
Therefore, the remaining spiritual energy can only be used for ax training on the basis of ensuring the progress of the Qi Gathering Pill.
After all, the Qingsong Formation requires spirit stones to maintain its operation. This is a major guarantee of safety. You must have enough spirit stones on hand.
After going home and resting for a while, Zhao Qing went to the kitchen to hand over the task.
After seeing Wang Teng again, he only said that he was here to hand in the task, and did not mention how many kilograms of firewood it was. Wang Teng just glared at him.
In addition, he also learned about the latest current events from the mouths of the female cultivators in the kitchen.
Just yesterday, the trial and examination of the sect's alchemy hall came to a successful conclusion. There was a senior who was in the late stage of Qi refining. With the help of his powerful spiritual consciousness, he surpassed the level and refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, which shocked everyone with his skills.
This is something that many inner sects and even direct disciples cannot do. Although the Foundation Establishment Pill is a pill in the late stage of Qi refining, it can assist in breaking through the Foundation Establishment, which is extremely precious.
It was precisely because of this incident that the senior fellow apprentice named Qin Yong was promoted to an inner disciple, and now he has joined the Alchemy Hall, and will no longer have to go on any dangerous missions in the future.
In addition, there is also news about Danxia City.
In recent days, there have been frequent incidents of robbery cultivators killing people and selling goods in Danxia City. There are rumors in the sect that most of the robbery cultivators are actually members of the Four Elephants Sect.
In this regard, the elders of the sect did not make a clear statement.
Zhao Qing carried tonight's food and went straight home against the flow of people.
Which senior brother in Dantang is promoted out of the norm, or another conflict occurs between sects, such things will have little impact on the handymen in the kitchen.
It can be said to be negligible. After all, apart from receiving Qi Gathering Pills every month, the handymen have nothing to do with the Alchemy Hall.
But everyone still discussed it enthusiastically, as if this could improve their status.
Zhao Qing paid a little attention to the news about Jie Xiu, and then remembered the corpse he met in Beifang that night.
"It is estimated that the robbery cultivator who committed the murder that day was a member of the Four Elephant Sect... If it was a casual cultivator who committed the murder, he would probably have taken the practice away and sold it instead of letting it fly all over the sky."
Thinking of this, Zhao Qing's heart sank slightly, and he suddenly realized something.
It was already dark at that time, and the location was near Fangshi. According to common sense, at the end of the year, there should be a senior fellow from the inner sect on duty...
Why does he still dare to commit murder?
Zhao Qing thought carefully, and the next moment his face suddenly turned ugly.
Wouldn't that be a robbery? ?
Yes, it’s not robbery! But a provocation! It's Sixiang Sect's provocation against Danxia Sect!
Even the flying techniques may be intentional!
Zhao Qing couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he recalled the sect's wooden plaque hanging on his waist at that time.
Now he even had some doubts as to whether the corpse he saw that day was a senior fellow from the sect...
Then Miao Jian is on patrol in Xifang...?
Zhao Qing kept thinking about it, and the more he thought about it, the more he became afraid.
It's really too dangerous. You must not bring anything related to Danxia Sect next time you go out.
After returning to the courtyard, he did not mention his suspicion to his wife.
Doing so will only lead to pointless panic.
The top priority is to strengthen one's own strength, otherwise going down the mountain to purchase will be a big problem in the future.
Wang Shuyue took out the formation disk from under the bed in the bedroom and said: "One spirit stone can last for about two hours, but if it is like that during the day, the spirit stone will be exhausted in just half an hour."
Zhao Qing nodded slightly.
Two hours... being attacked by the middle stage of Qi Refining can last for half an hour.
enough.
He told his beloved wife: "Keep the spirit stones you have saved for emergencies. If you encounter special circumstances and I am not at home, just activate the formation directly."
The girl responded solemnly, indicating that she understood the importance.
After the meal, Zhao Qing took out the shovel from his storage bag and took Wang Shuyue to the yard.
"Husband, is this what you want?"
Zhao Qing shook his head slightly, pushed the door open and walked into the east wing, carefully checking the fit of the floor tiles.
Shen Su and others were waiting for news in this room that night, and they can still see the headband left by someone unknown.
"I want to dig deep into the east wing and build a shelter to prevent dangers such as monster attacks from happening again."
Wang Shuyue frowned slightly, seeming a little confused.
"Although there are inner disciples on the mountain who are on duty, things in the world are ever-changing, and it is always good to have an escape route."
"The outside of the east chamber is empty and difficult to detect. We will use the east chamber as a bedroom in the future. If there is danger here, we will go straight underground or even outside the sect."
"The so-called shelter is to go down from this brick and open a secret room."
Zhao Qing briefly explained his thoughts. After all, his wife had to help with this matter. Shu Yue was also an acquired warrior after all, so she was fully qualified.
Wang Shuyue's big eyes gleamed, and she roughly understood what her husband meant.
She spoke carefully and tried to sum up: "Dig a cellar?"
Zhao Qing, whose mouth was dry, suddenly froze and stood up silently, no longer checking the condition of the floor tiles.
That's a good summary. You're very smart. I don't know if you can do it. I'll try it tonight.
"Shu Yue."
"Huh?" The sweet wife's clear nasal voice echoed in the empty wing.
"Have you ever heard of rope art? Come with me first."
