After turning to the "Sun and Moon Cycle Sutra" and entering the seventh level of Qi refining, Meng Zhang can practice some of the secret techniques included in the "Sun and Moon Cycle Sutra".
Some time ago, Meng Zhang gave priority to practicing the Earth Escape Technique and did not take care of this matter.
While staying in Mingshafang City, he began to practice these secret techniques.
The first thing he chose was to refine the true sun fire and condense the lunar true water.
During the day, under the scorching sun at noon, endure the scorching sun and absorb the most violent scorching energy. After being incorporated into the body, it is refined through secret methods.
It takes ten full days to refine a ray of true sun fire.
Under the bright moon at night, absorb the cold and biting Taiyin energy, and then use secret techniques to condense it.
It took ten nights to condense a drop of Taiyin True Water.
The True Fire of the Sun and the True Water of the Taiyin are not only very powerful in themselves, but also play an important role in many aspects, including refining weapons, refining elixirs, etc.
While Meng Zhang was practicing hard in seclusion, there was no movement from Li Shengqi's side. Li Xuan, who returned to Taiyi Gate first, also came to the door at this time.
Originally, because this was an action against Li Shengqi, Meng Zhang was worried that Li Xuan would be in trouble, so he deliberately did not call him.
When Li Xuan met Meng Zhang and listened to Meng Zhang's story, he was not embarrassed at all and instead volunteered to inquire about the news.
In the blink of an eye, a month was almost over, and no information came from the three people monitoring Li Shengqi. Li Xuan did not find any useful information through his own news channels.
Just when Meng Zhang thought he had failed this time, things quietly took a turn for the better.
When he was in Mingshafang City, Li Shengqi always lived in a grocery store owned by the Li family.
Some time ago, the Li family was destroyed. During the chaos, the grocery store was also looted by the remaining members of the Li family.
Li Shengqi guarded this empty shop, having neither the capital nor the inclination to run it.
The vassal forces of Shuangfeng Valley and the shops in Mingshafang City must pay taxes every year even if they close their doors and no longer do business. Unless the store is sold to someone else, the tax will be paid by the person who takes over the store.
During this period, many people came to the door and tried to persuade Li Shengqi to sell the shop, but he refused them all.
Even in the face of the Zhao family's monks threatening him, he did not relent.
Every day, Li Shengqi stayed in this store, never leaving except for occasionally going out to buy some daily necessities.
This made it much easier for those who were secretly monitoring him.
Recently, except for the occasional person who comes to persuade Li Shengqi to sell the shop, there is only a little guy like Li Nu who comes to visit every day to say hello with a very respectful attitude.
Li Shengqi's attitude towards Li Nu was always lukewarm. Apart from a few nonsense words, he rarely said anything useful.
The monks from the Zhao family who were hiding and watching in secret were beginning to feel impatient. Things are not progressing at all, it's just a waste of time.
In fact, Li Shengqi, who seemed to be living leisurely every day, also encountered trouble.
Li Zhan, who had high hopes from Li Shengqi and regarded him as the hope of reviving the Li family, brought a letter to Li Shengqi through secret channels.
In the letter, Li Zhan hoped that Li Shengqi would do his best to buy defensive and summoning talismans, and then find a way to secretly deliver them to him.
When Li Shengqi received this message, he was very angry.
What Li Station is doing now is a major event related to the future of the Li family and whether the Li family can be rebuilt.
Li Shengqi, with a heart set on death, voluntarily took the Heart Locking Pill and stayed in Mingshafang City in order to attract the attention of coveters, especially the Zhao family, so that Li Zhan's affairs could proceed smoothly.
Now Station Li has sent this letter. Although it is through a secret channel, there is still a risk of exposure.
Once the situation at Li Station is exposed, the Li family will have no hope. All the sacrifices Li Shengqi made were meaningless.
Even though he was annoyed, he still had to try his best to meet Li Zhan's request. Thinking about it, if he didn't have to, he wouldn't risk sending a message to himself.
Li Shengqi thought for a long time in the store before coming up with a plan.
The next day, Li Nu came to greet Li Shengqi as a routine.
Li Nu, who originally regarded this as a routine matter and thought there would be no gains, got a surprise.
Li Shengqi asked Li Nu to bring enough people and come to the store early tomorrow. He had something to tell him.
After Li Nu left, he honestly told the Zhao family about the matter.
Next, Li Shengqi came to Feihong Tower.
Li Shengqi emptied his last spiritual stone and even mortgaged the Li family's shop before he could barely complete all his plans.
On the morning of the third day, Li Nu brought a group of men to the door of the store early.
Li Shengqi didn't waste any time and directly handed a box slightly larger than a palm to Li Nu. He was then given a map and asked to escort the box to the designated location.
This is a secret box commonly used in the world of cultivation to secretly deliver items.
There are talismans affixed to the surface of this box. If it is opened by force instead of using special techniques, the box and the items inside will be automatically destroyed.
Shortly after Li Nu left, Li Shengqi went to Sihai Tower, hired a team of monks, disguised himself, and secretly left Mingshafang City.
As soon as Li Shengqi left Mingshafang City, all his actions were controlled by the Zhao family.
At about the same time, Meng Zhang received the messenger talisman from the dark horse. Then, they met in the reserved teahouse.
The three dark horses were really powerful. Not only did they control Li Shengqi's every move, but they also monitored the Zhao family monks who were secretly monitoring Li Shengqi.
After listening to Dark Horse's story, Meng Zhang fell into deep thought.
"It is impossible for Li Shengqi to trust Li Nu. What he ordered Li Nu to do should be a cover-up to distract the Zhao family."
Li Xuan first gave his judgment.
"Then shall we continue to follow Li Shengqi?" Dark Horse asked.
"Given how cunning Li Shengqi is, he should know that no matter how he disguises himself, he cannot hide from the eyes of the monitors. His actions feel somewhat deliberate." Li Xuan continued.
Li Xuan is familiar with the situation of the Li family and Li Shengqi, so his words have great reference value.
"In the past few days, Li Shengqi has not been anywhere else except Feihong Tower and Sihai Tower."
"It seems that the key to the problem is what he did in Feihong Tower."
Meng Zhang, who was also not stupid, pointed out the key to the matter.
Feihong Tower is the property of Feihong Sect. As the overlord of a large area around it, Feihong Sect is the sky and the earth here.
Even if the three dark horses have done a lot of dirty work and have always been lawless, they don't dare to offend the Feihong Sect's power easily.
