The moonlight was as clear as water, and everything in the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers was illuminated clearly.
After agreeing to take Zhang Shaoyao with him the next time he went to Zhuque City, Mu Qing sent the girl back to Ning Chu.
At this time, he was walking alone by the medicine garden, looking at the similar but different scenery under the moonlight, and understood that what Jiang Shangxiu said was true. The opening of the Spiritual Mist Array would have a profound impact on the Ten Thousand Flowers Valley.
The moonlight pours down, and it is intuitively felt that the spiritual energy that has been accumulated in the sky over the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers all year round is gone, and most of the spiritual materials in the medicine shop on the ground have withered. The least affected are the ordinary medicinal materials that do not contain spiritual energy.
Is this incident in Wanhua Valley over, or has it just begun?
If you take Shaoyao to explore the past, what kind of dangers will you encounter?
Free time like this tonight is rare. As long as Mu Qing thinks of this before he has time to breathe, the pressure will bind him tightly like the thick moonlight tonight.
Jiang Shangxiu could see that he had no sense of belonging to Hidden Valley, but what about the others?
After secretly killing five people and just one white tiger, Mu Qing knew that his previous thoughts were somewhat naive.
"It would be great if Senior Wang were here..." Mu Qing now really wants to see Wang Yeqing and ask him for advice on what happened recently.
Mu Qing had an intuition that the dark clouds hanging over the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers seemed to have dispersed, but the clouds that shrouded him were getting heavier and heavier...
"I can teach you a simple spell."
Meng Zhang's voice echoed in the sea of consciousness. Mu Qing frowned and asked from the bottom of his heart: "Can you contact me directly? Or can you pry into my thoughts at will?"
"Spying? No, when a certain emotion in your mind is too strong, I can feel it. For example, you were afraid of death just now."
Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, not intending to explain to the other party that being afraid of death and being too stressed and unable to find a clue were two different things. After quickly entering the secret passage, he sat cross-legged on the ground against the wall and began to recite silently: "Where Tianyi lives, Don't turn your back on your back, and don't make enemies of anyone attacked by Beidou..."
boom--
Mu Qing silently recited the formula given to him by Meng Zhang, and took the initiative to enter the selection space for the first time.
Looking down at his transparent palm, Mu Qing asked, "I enter this space as a spiritual body. What will the outside world think of me like?"
"A living dead."
Meng Zhang's voice suddenly sounded far and near, but it was much clearer than in the sea of consciousness, "You once again silently recite the breathing method I taught you."
Up to now, Meng Zhang has passed on three things to Mu Qing. The first one was the Tao Contemplation method he passed on to Mu Qing in Qingchuanguan Town, the second one was the formula for entering the selection space, and the third one was' The breathing method of "swallowing clouds and suffocating qi".
Mu Qing did not hesitate, he recited the verse and he understood the whole chapter in an instant. He wanted to recite it silently again, but Meng Zhang interrupted: "In the place where my projection is, you can recite it silently once and it will be effective. Now you are in the outside world." The physical body can withstand the peak blow of the middle stage of the True Self Realm.”
At the middle stage of the True Self Realm, that is, the level of transcendence from the mortal world, Mu Qing's heart moved and asked: "How powerful can this method be?"
…
The selection space instantly became quiet. The mist in the distance of the long river of time stirred a few times, and a voice filled with the vicissitudes of time said leisurely: "Aiming too high is not beneficial to your practice."
Mu Qing frowned, looked at some of the scrolls in the river of time, and said directly: "I learned from a senior that above the ninth level of the spiritual life realm, there is the third level of the true self realm, which is extraordinary, transcendent, and mortal. , what state are you in to be able to communicate with me like this?"
Or should we say that there is another realm above the True Self Realm? Mu Qing's eyes flashed slightly, extremely afraid that one day in the future Meng Zhang would destroy him in an instant.
Meng Zhang's voice suddenly sounded cold: "You are still wary of me and signed a Taoist contract with me. If you cannot serve me sincerely, what you want will come true."
"Didn't you say you didn't pry into my thoughts?"
“Just because it didn’t happen before doesn’t mean it won’t happen now.”
Mu Qing had a cold face, and Meng Zhang suddenly said: "You want to seal the entrance to the space?"
Mu Qing squinted his eyes and simply didn't think about anything.
Meng Zhang said: "You are now only a second-grade spiritual creature with the strength of an ant. The man who used the sword that night is already at the peak of the early stage of the True Self Realm, which is the peak of the Transcendent Stage, and is consistent with the Great Dao."
After Mu Qing woke up from the secret room, he gradually discovered that he had broken through the third level of spiritual life, and now the second level was not yet stable.
In fact, if Wang Yeqing were here, he would be able to tell that there were rules and regulations hidden in Meng Zhang's words, and he was not overbearing.
Mu Qing never dared to take this powerful being who had helped him lightly, but judging from the current situation, he would have to rely on the other party's strength in the future. "I don't like to owe favors, let alone someone as powerful as you." existence, I am afraid that I will have to pay for it with my life."
"You have signed a Taoist contract with me, and I will not take your life easily."
"Hmph! You won't take my life easily? I remember you said that after signing a Taoist contract with you, I have to walk in the world for you. If you have the opportunity today, you can tell me clearly what you need me to give you in exchange for power."
…
"I didn't expect you to be so smart." Meng Zhang's voice had a bit more complex emotions, and his speech style gradually became more like a real person. "You are not strong enough to do things for me now. This is the first time I charge The time of reward will be when you reach the peak of the spiritual realm."
"At the peak of the spiritual realm, even if I don't borrow his power, I should be able to compete with the extraordinary level. I wonder what he is going to do?" Mu Qing thought to himself.
"The gap between the big realms is difficult to make up for with the amount of true energy, but with my help, you will be able to compete against the middle stage of the true self realm."
There was anger on Mu Qing's face: "I didn't say anything, but you were prying into my heart again."
"Well... this is in my projection space. I can know any angry thoughts you have at this time. But if you don't enter this selection space, I can only feel some of your strong emotions, and I can't Pry into your thoughts."
Mu Qing's face calmed down, and he made up his mind to learn a method to restrain his mind in the future, and asked, "What do you want me to do then?"
"You are an assassin, of course I ask you to kill people."
"kill?"
Mu Qing's voice was slightly high. With the opponent's strength, what enemy would need him to attack?
"It's not an enemy, it's a person with destiny."
Meng Zhang didn't want to explain more and said instead: "I will teach you another spell now."
Mu Qing hadn't decided whether to accept it or not, and there was another pain in his head. Fortunately, after having the experience of being forcefully instilled for the first time, Mu Qing just collapsed on the ground and didn't just faint.
"Shout thunder and make a sound..."
Mu Qing held her forehead, and hundreds of words of this extra formula kept flooding in her mind.
Mu Qing felt uncomfortable with the suffocation, and subconsciously screamed loudly. Suddenly, an unspeakable force rolled up in his body, and when it came into his mouth, it had turned into a syllable with a strange tone, similar to the roar of an animal.
"howl--"
A bolt of extremely dark purple thunder landed at Mu Qing's feet. Mu Qing immediately struggled to stand up, only to find that his field of vision was already filled with thunder.
"This was then..."
"Swallowing clouds and gloomy energy, shouting thunder and making sounds, these are the two powers I lent you that night."
The purple thunder did not leave a mark after it landed. It seemed that Meng Zhang wanted to show off his transformation, but Mu Qing could really feel the cyan lightning everywhere, and couldn't help but sigh: "The blue light and the thunder are like the same thing." There are two ways to defend and attack, but it doesn’t seem to be just that.”
"This is natural. The two techniques I taught you, if used together, the overall power will be enhanced after the methods are superimposed."
Mu Qing recalled the plot of using Meng Zhang's power and immediately understood what he meant.
For example, if he only relied on the green light to protect his body, the maximum level he could defend would be at the extraordinary level, but if he added thunder, the maximum level he could defend would be raised to the extraordinary level.
"Your guess is roughly correct. The peak strike in the middle stage of True Self Realm that I mentioned is the peak strike in the late stage of Transcendence Stage, but it is only one strike."
Mu Qing thought for a moment and then asked: "Then if I borrow your power, how long can I stand still and resist the extraordinary level?"
Meng Zhang's voice was a little weird, "Why do you have to resist? Ordinary late-stage extraordinary monks, even sword cultivators, like the one who used the sword that night, couldn't break your defense, but it's just because your body carries my The strength is at its limit.”
Meng Zhang's words touched Mu Qing's heart, and Mu Qing quickly asked: "How long can I carry your power now?"
The mist beside the river surged, and Meng Zhang was silent for a long time. He must have thought carefully before he slowly said: "You have entered the second level now. When your realm stabilizes, you will be able to exert your strength with the help of my power." It should be between the late stage of the Transcendent Stage and the early stage of the Extraordinary Stage. If you can do a good job for me in the future, as your realm improves, I will be able to lend you more power. However, it will not be difficult to reach the peak of the True Self realm. Not delusional."
"As for the time your body can bear it? It depends on what kind of attack you suffered, but the longest limit is only half an hour."
When life and death are facing each other on the battlefield, people can be killed in an instant. It is enough to have such a long time, and Mu Qing is happy in his heart.
Meng Zhang threw cold water and said: "Because you relied on my power three days ago. If you want to digest the impact, it is best to leave each time at least one month apart."
"What's the impact?" Mu Qing's heart perked up and she thought to herself, is it finally here?
Meng Zhang Youyou said: "Didn't you say that I influenced your mind? That is the influence you will have after using my power."
"This kind of influence, the shorter the time interval and the more times you use my power, the deeper the influence will be."
Mu Qing now recalled that in the yard in the afternoon, he even wanted to rush over and fight the Qinglong White Tiger, and then he knew that there was a touch of violence and arrogance in his character that should not exist, and his heart felt slightly cold.
"I asked you before, what do you mean if you don't tell me now?" Mu Qing's voice was complicated.
"Because after I heard your voice, I have become extremely sure that you need my power, and you will be transformed by me. It's just that you are still too weak, and you can't control my power."
"What is Daohua?"
Mu Qing found that when communicating with Meng Zhang, he always felt that he was a young boy who just started practicing and didn't know anything.
Meng Zhang replied: "You can understand that if you stand with a strong person, you will be influenced and assimilated all the time, even if this is not the strong person's intention."
Meng Zhang said: "The way of heaven is constant, and it will involuntarily attract people with the same destiny to come together. This is not only the reason why I will choose you, but also the reason why you can do things for me."
Mu Qing frowned: "Because I am the innate body of Muyuan?"
As the fog settled, Meng Zhang's voice suddenly became very distant, and he said weakly: "Ten thousand years have passed, and the world has finally ushered in a big change. You can understand that I have put my chips on you."
"I will set the rules for the movement of spiritual energy in this place to be the same as those of the outside world, and time will pass more slowly. You should practice the two methods I teach you at this time."
After Meng Zhang finished speaking, the whole space buzzed. Mu Qing felt something in his heart. He looked towards the river of time not far away. The speed of the river was obviously much slower. This should be the result of Meng Zhang changing the rules here.
Mu Qing frowned and looked toward the mist deep in the river, but his eyes couldn't penetrate deeply at all.
Something must have happened...
Mu Qing shouted several times, but still couldn't hear Meng Zhang's reply, so he sat down cross-legged and seriously prepared to practice the two spells of Qingguang and Thunder.
"Since he said that this technique of summoning thunder is easier, let's practice this technique first."
Mu Qing closed his eyes, and the mantra about "Shouting Thunder and Making Sounds" appeared in his mind. Mu Qing calmed down, recited silently, opened his mouth,...and then read it out loud, with his mouth still open.
An hour must have passed, but Mu Qing still kept his mouth open and said nothing.
He grabbed Meng Zhang's collar and asked loudly: "Is this technique really simple?"
Look at the magic formula that has more than a hundred words, but it turns into a weird monosyllable when spoken. But after Meng Zhang disappeared, Mu Qing couldn't say it...
