Lu Zhong made a big move. Heads fell to the ground. Immediately, the sky was filled with green light, and a figure of the soul appeared in mid-air.
But he saw that this soul had two faces, one positive and one negative, which looked like Cheng Jian and Fang He respectively. At this moment, the two of them were shocked and angry. They never expected that Lu Zhong would be so decisive.
Before they could figure it out, there was another thunder net covering their heads in mid-air.
"Both the jade and the stone will perish, then I'll help you!" Fang He shouted loudly at this time. Immediately afterwards, he made a magic seal with his hand, which was green in color and vaguely shaped like a big tree.
Once it condensed, he pressed it on himself without hesitation. Almost at the same time, the thunder net has arrived.
In just an instant, the two souls that merged into one were reduced to dust by Zixiao Shen Lei.
"Kacha!" Lu Zhong looked down and found that the message came from the Taiyin Ning Talisman in his hand. After this Talisman suffered the backlash of the Changchun Blood Seal, its inner power was almost exhausted and it was already on the verge of destruction.
"It should still be usable." Seeing this, he felt relieved. Then he gathered his magic power and swiped his hand, taking Cheng Jian's storage bracelet and Old Man Huang Yan's storage jade Ruyi into his bag.
After a brief inspection to confirm that there were no hidden dangers, he immediately turned his attention to the Nine Yuan Ganoderma lucidum.
"Nine Yuan Ganoderma!" Looking at this rare treasure from heaven and earth, Lu Zhong was extremely excited. However, he still suppressed it.
This thing is not really available yet. Before obtaining the Nine-Yuan Ganoderma lucidum, one must first find ways to lift the powerful ban on this elixir, and this is undoubtedly a big problem.
Closing his eyes, Lu Zhong started to decipher with the help of the gray fog space. One day...one year...one month!
"It's done!" On this day, Lu Zhong suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes full of determination. Gray light condensed on his fingertips, turning into slender threads of light that shot towards the restriction in front of him. While causing the latter to collapse instantly, his other hand quickly reached out.
Avoiding the gaps in space along the way, he successfully got the Nine-Yuan Ganoderma lucidum in his hands. This process seems simple, but Lu Zhong doesn't know how many times he has practiced this in the Hui Shuo space.
If it were another person, even the most skillful monk in the world would not be sure he could succeed.
"Bah, bang, bang!" There was a sudden burst of applause. Lu Zhong sealed the Jiuyuan Ganoderma into the jade box and looked to the side and front.
I saw a figure standing there.
"Fellow Taoist Guanyuan?" Lu Zhong looked stunned, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. He originally thought that Guanyuanzi was kidnapped by Yaoyun, but he never expected that this person was still alive.
Facing his gaze, Guan Yuanzi smiled and twirled his beard at this moment and said: "Taoist Changhu is friendly and skillful. I didn't expect that even Taoist Cheng who was possessed by an old ghost could be easily solved! I originally thought that the one who would have the last laugh would be Him. However, I didn’t expect that there would be an expert like you hidden in the team.”
"So?" Lu Zhong calmed down and said expressionlessly.
"Haha, don't worry, I don't mean any harm. Naturally, I show up here because I want to conspire with fellow Taoists on a big thing!" When Guan Yuanzi said this, his face couldn't help but become serious. He stopped smiling and said: " Only those who are as powerful as my fellow Taoist are qualified to have the opportunity to go with me to obtain the Fuliugulu!" Fuliugulu?
At first glance, Lu Zhong still had doubts in his heart. But at this moment, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he remembered the origin of this thing.
Lu Zhong's expression at this moment was unusually exaggerated and excited: "You are saying that deep in the Linghuan Mountains, there is the same level as the Jade Dew of Creation, which can help the understanding of the law. It is called Fuliu Gulu, one of the most precious treasures of Linghuan. ?”
"Yes, it's exactly this!"
"Oh, if this thing really exists, why don't fellow Taoists take it out on their own? If it were me, I would definitely choose to eat it by myself. How could I say it and share it with others!" Lu Zhong was full of doubts about this matter and said: "After all, the more you take this Fuliugulu, the more benefits you can get." For monks in the integration stage and even the Mahayana stage, this is the best elixir to defy the heavens.
Adhering to it can lay the foundation for future breakthroughs. Guan Yuanzi did not deny this question.
"Under normal circumstances, this is naturally the case. But the place where Fuliu Gulu is located is protected by a restriction similar to the one that protected the Jiuyuan Ganoderma just now. It is extremely strong. At the same time, once it is forcibly destroyed by an external force, the protected object will be destroyed immediately. In the past, In the past 20,000 years, I have tried many methods, but I can't get rid of it."
"Instead of guarding the treasure mountain in vain, it is better to invite monks like fellow Taoists who can solve such restrictions."
"Oh? I'm afraid it's more than that!" Lu Zhong's words obviously meant something. Looking at it now, it was clear that Guan Yuanzi had bad intentions from the beginning when he sent invitations everywhere.
The invitees coveted the nine-yuan Ganoderma lucidum, a rare treasure from heaven and earth, but they didn't know that the inviters also coveted their net worth.
With the help of the almost unsolvable existence of Yao Yun, he killed fellow monks again and again.
"Discovered by fellow Taoist!" Guan Yuanzi didn't care about this, but was proud of it.
"That's right, just as Taoist Fellow Daoist guessed, I did use this place as a trap to kill fellow monks. I don't think Fellow Taoist Fellow Changhu understands the suffering of casual cultivators. It's really hard to explain in words. Furthermore, If these people hadn't been blinded by greed, how could they have fallen into my trap full of loopholes?" Lu Zhong was unable to refute these words.
And indeed, if he hadn't been too greedy, he wouldn't have been involved in this incident. Not to mention that because of this, he encountered an unsolvable existence like Yao Yun and almost lost his life because of it.
"You think so!" Guan Yuanzi said at this time, and smiled smugly: "It is also thanks to the wealth of these people that I can slowly grow from an unknown cultivator with the help of the resources I have obtained, and gradually grow from thousands of people. Stand out among the monks. Until now, I have become a mid-stage integration monk and an ancestor that is envied in the eyes of others."
"Back to the topic, are fellow Taoists willing to agree?"
"Let me think about it for a while." Lu Zhong did not agree immediately. Frankly speaking, after hearing about Fuliugulu, he felt a strong desire in his heart.
After all, as long as you take this thing, you can get a glimpse of what the true law is in advance, which will be of great help to your future Mahayana achievements.
"I am determined to get this thing!" Even if I have to fight for the skin of a tiger, I will not hesitate. Thinking of this, Lu Zhong raised his head after making a decision, and met Guan Yuanzi's eyes. The latter smiled slightly: "What, fellow Taoist, have you thought about it?"
"Of course! You and I both know the benefits of Fuliugulu." After Lu Zhong said this, he paused: "Everyone is fighting for their lives on the path to immortality, and we monks have all devoted their lives to it. Now this opportunity has come, Is there any reason not to seize it?"
"Wise choice! Follow me." Guan Yuanzi greeted, and then walked deeper into the Ninth Marrow Realm. After a little exploration, Lu Zhong followed closely.
After a while, the two came to a huge basin, which also had a protective shield. But compared with the previous ones, this restriction in the center of the basin is obviously several levels more complicated.
Through the gray shield, one can see a drop of green liquid floating inside. When I first saw it, I saw the shadow of the big willow tree inside and the virtual image of the law that was almost violent in front of me.
Lu Zhong was sure that the origin of this object was indeed Fuliu Gulu. Try to crack. Soon, Lu Zhong came up with the answer.
"How is it?" Guan Yuanzi asked nervously from the side.
"For now, there is really nothing I can do! The level of this restriction is obviously several levels more complicated than the one that protects the Nine Yuan Ganoderma." Lu Zhong said this and added: "Of course, if I am now If my cultivation level can reach the late stage of integration, I'm afraid there is a chance." What he said is true.
At the later stage of integration, monks can master a complete pseudo-law. This is obviously much stronger than the previous state.
For Lu Zhong, the complete pseudo-law of space and time also greatly reduces the pressure on him to control the gray fog space, which can in disguise improve his ability to break the restrictions in front of him.
On the other side, Guan Yuanzi looked hesitant.
"This is too long, besides..." He didn't finish his words, but Lu Zhong knew what the other party meant, and it was obvious that there were too many variables in the future.
It is even possible that you may have problems first before help comes.
"Since I chose to take a gamble, why don't fellow Taoists give it a try?" After hearing this, Guan Yuanzi was silent for a while.
After a long while, he said: "Okay! Since fellow Taoist is so confident, how can I not follow you? However, I also ask fellow Taoist to swear not to leak this place before leaving." What Guan Yuanzi said was untrue. Makes no sense.
Regarding this, Lu Zhong had many thoughts in his mind.
"If I ask Taiyin Patriarch or Kongsang Divine Tree to take action at this moment, I will have a great chance to kill Guanyuanzi. But the price I have to pay for this will be extremely painful." After all... This is an opportunity to advance to the Mahayana.
Lu Zhong thought of this, and although he was extremely moved at the moment, he still considered it as his last option.
If you really can't beat them, just ask them to take action. Immediately, he swore a poisonous oath in front of Guan Yuanzi.
At the same time, Guan Yuanzi stretched out his hand and grabbed a golden ball of light from the void. A look of surprise flashed across his face, but he quickly returned to normal. He nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good, I swear the magic ball." Received. Since fellow Taoist said that you have to be in the advanced stage of integration to have a chance to break the restriction, I wish you in advance that you can break through to this realm!"
"Farewell." Lu Zhongdan cupped his hands, turned around and left. Behind him, Guan Yuanzi's eyes changed, wavering between taking action and waiting.
Finally chose to give up. ...somewhere in the wilderness. In the temporary cave, Lu Zhong took out the harvests of the trip one by one, with a smile that could not be concealed on his face. Then he suppressed the idea of refining the Nine Yuan Ganoderma into elixirs and began to examine them individually.
Lots of stuff. In the storage bags of Cheng Jian and the old man Huang Yan, they both found an astonishing number of spiritual stones, valuable spiritual materials, and some elixirs that were also effective for monks in the integration stage.
It's a pity that there is no fragment of the pseudo-law that Lu Zhong wants most. Thinking about it, if they really have it, I'm afraid the first thought in their hearts will be to exchange it.
In this way, you can get the pseudo-law fragments you want, or other precious things.
"Thankfully I have you!" He put the two storage utensils aside and opened the jade box in his hand. I saw Jiuyuan Ganoderma lying quietly on the silk cloth, with nine cloud patterns on its surface shining brightly, constantly emitting a hazy light, like a dream, and there was a strange fragrance secretly coming from it, which was very exciting to smell. Feeling spiritual, very wonderful.
Lu Zhong's lips moved slightly and he muttered something. Immediately afterwards, he spit out a mouthful of spiritual fire. Regarding the refining of the Nine-Yuan Spiritual Pill, it can be said to be extremely simple, as long as you add a few auxiliary materials that can be found everywhere.
This is especially true for him, an alchemist. Ever since, it only took less than half a year.
A batch of Nine-Yuan Spiritual Pill was released. Without hesitation, Lu Zhong took one pill and put it into his mouth. The taste is indescribable.
...in the wilderness. A row of figures walked side by side, and the leader among them was a female cultivator in yellow clothes with a strange appearance but a graceful figure.
"How far is it from that place?" the female cultivator urged impatiently. Her name is Nangong Huan, and she is the owner of a nearby cave, so she can also be called
"Lord of Nangong Cave". This trip into the wilderness was to collect spiritual fruits from a secret realm. I thought this trip would be over in three to five years.
Unexpectedly, due to an encounter halfway,
"Evil wind", almost lost the direction. Fortunately, after some desperate efforts, everyone finally arrived at the target location.
"Senior, it's at the solitary peak in front of you." A handsome monk replied at this time.
Following what this person was pointing, Nangong Huan did see an isolated peak not far away in the vast forest, which looked too out of place with the surroundings.
But at this moment, a pillar of light suddenly rose into the sky from the solitary peak. ...in a quiet room. Lu Zhong opened his eyes, his heart full of joy.
"Okay, okay!" He said three good words in a row, which showed how happy he was now. And this all comes from breakthroughs in cultivation.
That's right, in terms of mana accumulation alone, Lu Zhong is now considered a mid-stage integration monk. All thanks to the Nine Yuan Spirit Pill.
The effect of this elixir far exceeded Lu Zhong's expectations, and was even better than the Xiaolong Holy elixir. It could even be said that it left the latter far behind.
After Lu Zhong spent a period of time to refine all the Nine Yuan Spiritual Pills. The cultivation level naturally breaks through to the middle stage of integration.
Compared with the early stage, Lu Zhong's strength in the middle stage of integration has not increased significantly. He is very clear about this, and it is all because of the pseudo-law.
At the integration stage, it is no longer the amount of mana that determines the strength of a monk. It is the degree of mastery of quasi-laws.
However, because Lu Zhong's cultivation was too rapid, he had less accumulation in understanding the laws than the normal combined monks.
That's why they were held back in terms of strength. Despite this, it does not prevent him from defeating his opponents at the same level.
After feeling the benefits of the breakthrough, Lu Zhong turned his gaze to the top of his head, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes: "It's time to meet these guests who came to the door!" He immediately flashed away and disappeared into the quiet room.
