The soul of the alchemy monk is so powerful that it can only be translated in an instant.
Lu Zhong originally thought that what was recorded on the human skin paper was a skill or a secret spell, but he never thought that it was just a brief note.
The person who recorded this incident was a barbarian capital priest, whose strength was equivalent to that of the human Jindan Zhenren.
The full text totals more than a thousand words.
"... One hundred and twenty miles west from Wushi City, across the secluded forest, you can hear the sound of water, like gurgling water, there must be a treasure... There are many evil monsters in the cave, but fortunately someone has repaired the evil talisman... The cave is full of fighting snakes, However, the treasure has never been seen. I have lost the favor of the barbarian god?... When I reached the bottom of the cave, I saw the Naihe River."
Naihe?
Lu Zhong frowned when he saw these two words.
He did know about the Naihe Bridge. According to legend, it was the place where the underworld must pass through reincarnation. But the Naihe Bridge should be in the depths of Jiuyou. It was out of reach, not even the monks who transformed gods could reach it.
"Perhaps it's just a misunderstanding by the barbarians. After all, they call the monks who transform themselves into barbarians."
Liu Yu had previously tried to lure him to Liushuidong;
The Ye brothers and sisters were also trapped there;
There is also this barbarian tribe who claims that there is a Naihe River at the bottom of the cave.
No matter how you look at it, Liushui Cave is not a good place.
However, Lu Zhong was certain of one thing, that was the source of the strange black shadow, which was most likely related to the flowing water cave.
Thinking of this, he turned over his hand and took out a silver charm.
The silver talisman is only about the size of a palm, but both the head, gallbladder, and foot of the talisman are extremely complicated. The strokes on it seem to be stuck together, and even Lu Zhong feels dizzy after looking at it.
It is a third-level communication talisman.
After being activated, a message of one hundred words can be sent to a relay point thousands of miles away.
There are a large number of relay points scattered throughout the Changchun Territory, and Changchun Valley disciples are stationed to forward messages. After repeated cycles, the message can be sent back to Changchun Valley.
According to Lu Zhong's understanding, this thing is the immortal version of quantum entanglement.
The Flowing Water Cave involved the legendary Nai River, and he was not prepared to explore it. After all, the barbarian capital priest also said that except for a large number of evil objects, there were no treasures at all in the cave.
"Forget it, let's report this matter to Changchun Valley and let them have a headache." Lu Zhong thought silently and decided to stay out of the matter.
Alas, this is nothing!
The two Nascent Soul sects started fighting for no apparent reason, and now even something suspected to be Naihe appeared.
I really can’t imagine what will happen in the future.
Fortunately, he has reached the elixir formation stage.
With cultivation as your capital, you can live a comfortable life even if you are really in troubled times.
Then he turned his attention to the human skin paper.
Liu Yu hid this thing very deeply, which means that it cannot be as simple as a travel note, and it is very likely that there are some secrets hidden there.
There are only a few methods of hiding information that come and go.
After trying them one by one, when Lu Zhong soaked his consciousness, the writing on it changed.
"The Barbarian Ancestor Swallowing Heaven"
The name is very domineering.
Judging from the content, it is a barbarian body training method.
Trained to have the body of a dragon.
"I don't know how true or false this statement is."
If it reaches 50%, this technique can rank among the top body-refining techniques.
Lu Zhong took a closer look and found that the materials he needed to use were not very scarce. They mainly used blood to strengthen his body little by little, whether it was spirit beast blood or spirit beast meat. .
The difficulty lies in opening up the acupuncture points in the body. This step is very dangerous for others. The main reason is that there is no room for mistakes when crossing the level. Otherwise, the flow of Qi and blood will be reversed, and the physical vitality will be severely damaged.
A typical barbarian technique, with insufficient resources and talent.
For him, he can completely pile up resources to speed up the progress of body refining.
To clear the acupoints, you must first go through the gray fog space simulation, and then try it after you are proficient. As long as you are careful during the process, it is basically impossible to have problems in practice.
"I happen to be missing a physical training method that I can practice." Lu Zhongsi thought.
When his physical strength increases, it will be easier to achieve the Star Source Spirit Body.
…
At this time, the night faded.
The black shadow that attacked Fangshi receded when the fog faded at dawn, as if everything had never happened.
Soon Si Huandou reported.
Except for a few unlucky people who went out in Ningwufang City, and the team of vigilant monks who ran into the black shadow group, their vitality was sucked away by the evil group, no other people died, and the property damage was not big. In the initial chaos, some evil-minded people tried to take advantage of the situation and destroyed several shops during the fight.
In troubled times, heavy laws are used, so Lu Zhong had the law enforcement team beheaded as a warning to others.
In the next few days, black shadows continued to invade Fangshi.
Lu Zhong took action several times and destroyed more than a thousand shadow evil creatures, but he could not see any effect. Their number was still as large as the sea. After a wild night of attacking without any results, they retreated back to the flowing water cave.
On this day, a giant ship came through the clouds.
"Shaking Mountain Boat? No, it's just a replica." Lu Zhong looked at the flying mini version of "Shaking Mountain Boat". It was only more than 200 feet long, one-third smaller than the original boat. There were no Hunyuan cannons on both sides of the ship. Some are just giant crossbows, and because they carry a large number of armor plates, their flying speed is almost the same as that of a flying boat.
Even so, when the boat landed in Fangshi, it still caused waves of exclamations.
After a while, three streams of light flew out of the boat.
The leader is Master Qingding. He looks not very good at the moment. He originally thought that he had done a good job in guarding Xuelong Pass and could be transferred back to the mountain gate for a promotion. However, he was unexpectedly sent to Ningwufang City to deal with emergencies.
Behind them, two Changchun Valley Pill Formers were in a similar situation.
In the lobby, the three people met with Lu Zhong.
After some simple greetings, we got straight to the point.
Master Qingding had heard about Lu Zhong's success in surviving Yue Cang's hands some time ago, and the previous assistance from Xuelong Pass. He no longer treated him as an ordinary pill-forming person, and politely handed him over:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, the affairs of the city will be handed over to the three of me. You can step down and return."
"Then I'd like to thank you fellow Taoist!" Lu Zhong said calmly.
After quickly completing the handover, he said goodbye and left.
As soon as I walked out, I couldn't help but smile on my face.
This can be regarded as handing over the hot potato!
Looking at the mini mountain-shaking boat again, a group of Changchun Valley disciples filed down, numbering at least a thousand, and boxes of storage bags were moved down, which should contain a lot of things.
"With such a big battle, it seems that this water cave is really not simple. Nothing happened before, but when something abnormal happened, I bumped into it." Lu Zhong thought of this and felt that he was out of luck.
When I get back, I have to boil water with grapefruit leaves and take a bath to get rid of the bad luck.
Arriving at Fangshi Square, the monks from the fleet were already gathering.
What made him feel relieved was that the annoying Fang Qing was not in the team.
Soon, a fleet flew from the northeast.
This is to take them back.
…
The genius was bright, and Lu Zhong woke up from his sleep.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Yu Feng'er wrapped around him, with black hair on his temples and messy hair, and the red cloud on his face. He was sleeping soundly at the moment, with no intention of waking up. He was obviously exhausted last night.
Since returning to Changchun Fairy City, life has returned to peace.
Eat, practice, sleep...
Tianluo Secret Eye Technique is getting better and better day by day.
Barbarian Ancestor Swallowing Heaven Jue, with the accumulation of a large amount of resources, also quickly entered the door.
Live each day to the fullest.
It's a pity that the war is still going on, and there is no momentum to end it for a while.
But in the short term, it's none of Lu Zhong's business.
After all, he is Jindan Zhenren, and there are rules in Changchun Valley. He cannot be recruited at will, so he has ten years to rest.
Ten years have passed, and maybe the war has ended.
This is very possible.
Now that the two cases have been fought, the situation has become increasingly clear.
The cause of the war was also revealed. It was not the spiritual stone mine, but a secret realm once occupied by barbarians. It was said that the ecological environment of ancient times was preserved and contained many precious elixirs.
Among them, there are even several thousand-year-old elixirs.
At the Nascent Soul stage, when refining elixirs for increasing cultivation, you must use thousand-year-old elixirs as the main materials. Otherwise, you can only refine the spiritual energy in your spiritual veins for cultivation. However, the Nascent Soul Lord is almost at the top of the human race, and he can It is almost impossible to find spiritual veins that meet the needs, so even if you practice in the spiritual veins day after day, you may not be able to get some growth in cultivation.
Behind this war is actually the will of the True Monarch Nascent Soul.
When it comes to the distribution of the thousand-year-old elixir, no one can convince anyone with words alone. The fight involves their own safety. The two Nascent Soul Lords are unwilling to take the risk and end it personally, so they continue to use the old method of determining the distribution share through a war. By the way, they can also Consume excess monks to alleviate the increasingly acute resource problem.
“In the final analysis, this world is still about the weak and the strong.”
Seeing that this truth was verified once again, Lu Zhong couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
If they are not strong enough, they can only be used as pawns.
In the eyes of Yuanying, the Danjie monks were nothing more than relatively powerful pawns.
If you want to be a chess player, you can only practice hard.
Become the Nascent Soul True Lord who stands above hundreds of millions of people and controls the changes in the situation.
one year later.
The war that was originally in full swing suddenly came to a halt.
Various gossips spread in Changchun Fairy City.
Some people say that the secret realm of the barbarians is fake and that the two sects are fighting in vain.
Some people say something big has happened and they need to gather strength.
There are different opinions and all kinds of speculations.
Lu Zhong didn't know what happened specifically, but the war stopped suddenly, just like it broke out without warning, and everything returned to calm.
…
In a quiet room.
Lu Zhong exhaled a breath of turbid air and exited from the cultivation state.
After spending several months in seclusion and consuming several bottles of cultivation-improving elixirs, his cultivation level increased slightly, but there was still a long way to go before he could break through to the middle stage of elixir formation.
"According to this progress, in what year and month will I be able to cultivate to the point where the elixir formation is complete?" He could be said to have no temper at his slow pace of cultivation.
He got up and went to the courtyard, where Yu Feng'er was also there.
As soon as she sat down, she came over.
"Husband, have you heard? There have been strange things happening in the city recently. Many babies just born are born soulless living flesh!" Yu Feng'er said with a look of disbelief.
When a person loses his soul, isn’t he just a piece of living flesh?
"Is there such a thing?" Lu Zhong was also surprised when he heard this.
There is no such incident recorded in the classics.
Is it true that something big is going to happen in the world of immortality, as the rumors say?
"What's the reaction over there in Changchun Valley?" Lu Zhong rubbed Yu Feng'er a few times before he realized something was wrong. He quickly took his hand out, picked up the spirit tea on the table and drank it.
Yu Feng'er turned pale at Lu Zhong with a look of embarrassment on her face, which made her very uncomfortable, but she still told what she knew and said:
"They just said that some demonic cultivators were causing trouble and took away the baby's soul."
Demonic cultivators causing trouble?
Aren't you born soulless?
Lu Zhong was confused.
Before he could think about it, a shy face appeared in front of him, so close that the air from his breath sprayed on his face.
"Husband, concubine..."
"Stop! No need to say anything, I understand." Lu Zhong interrupted hurriedly.
How could he not know what Yu Feng'er was going to say next.
Isn't it just that he collected the pulse quenching prescription again?
Every time I hear this, I feel a headache.
It is said that a long separation is better than a new marriage, but Lu Zhong was numb to this.
"Oh, maybe it's because of my age." Lying on the bed, Lu Zhong couldn't help but sigh when he thought that he was already in his early eighties. In his previous life, most of his body would have been buried.
"Pfft!" Yu Feng'er heard it and laughed.
This was the first time she had seen him. Brother Jiedan said he was eighty years old.
It took a long time to stop smiling.
Yu Feng'er rolled her eyes and exhaled like a blue breath: "Husband, you are an alchemy monk. You have a lifespan of five hundred years at least. Now, you are like a mortal boy!"
What you say makes sense.
But when Lu Zhong thought about it carefully, there was something in his words.
The eighty-year-old Danjie monk, converted into mortal age, is only a little kid in his early ten years according to the average lifespan of a mortal in this world.
Angry from shame.
Lu Zhong stood up and decided to teach Yu Feng'er a lesson.
This woman must support the wall and come out!
…
A few months later.
Lu Zhong went out and prepared to go to the Western Region.
Yu Feng'er stood at the door, followed by several maids, her face full of worry.
"Husband, be careful on the road!"
After taking a few steps, he noticed the eyes falling on him. Lu Zhong thought to himself, what kind of immortal are you, how can it be like the separation of a mortal couple, which made him feel uncomfortable.
I had no choice but to stop and comfort my mother-in-law:
"Don't worry, I'll be right back."
After saying that, he boarded the newly purchased beast cart and drove straight out of the city.
After leaving the city, he transformed into a rainbow light and took off into the sky.
Seeing the scenery on both sides retreating like a tide, Lu Zhong suddenly felt relieved. The benefits of body training in recent times have been reflected. His blood has become more and more vigorous, even if he burns a little essence and blood, his body's vitality will not be affected. Damage, Meteor Escape can be used as an explosive method in the future.
"Bang!" A sound barrier cloud appeared.
A few moments faster than before, Lu Zhong arrived at Poisonous Insect Valley.
As usual, I still patrolled around. The benefits of transforming the environment of Poisonous Insect Valley are now slowly showing up. There are fewer and fewer monks appearing here, and the surrounding area has become a desert.
"Very good!" Lu Zhong nodded with satisfaction.
Turn around and come to the underground palace, stepping onto the teleportation array leading to the Western Realm.
Last time in Zuluo Immortal City, there was a big commotion.
For safety reasons, we cannot go back in a short period of time.
This time he is planning to go to the West Extreme Sword Territory.
The Western Sword Territory is adjacent to the Scarlet Demon Land, and is exactly at the far west and east of Xianlao Pass where the Zhenyang Sect is located. Affected by the high concentration of scarlet aura blowing from the Scarlet Demon Land, few people except the Western Alliance will stay there. here.
Zhen Yangzong's power will definitely be weakened here, which can greatly reduce the probability of him getting into trouble.
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
