Qin Mian woke up from seclusion, checked his current situation, and felt a little happy.
This is the second retreat after blowing up the ghost king. Each retreat lasted only about three hundred days. Of course, the duration of the retreat was less than one day.
After two consecutive retreats, he felt that there was improvement in all aspects, but there was no qualitative change.
Although it has absorbed more than 30 residual formations that have never been absorbed before, the formation is still in the early stage of respecting the level. It has not been promoted to the middle stage, and it is not known how far it is from the middle stage.
After absorbing a lot of array energy and laws of nature, the strength of the body has increased. The Xuanfu Chaos Tree has grown taller and thicker, but there has been no qualitative change. I don't know what the opportunity for the qualitative change is.
The number of mastery of various principles has increased, but I feel that we are still far from the intersection, and the integration is not yet understood.
The soul sea has expanded again, and the density of the soul path has also increased, but it has not yet advanced.
The only thing he could be proud of was that two of the unknown principles he had absorbed previously and recently had disappeared. It was clear that they had not left his body, but he did not know where they had gone.
When you first adapt to chaos, you can clearly see the energy and principles of transformation, but you can't see this at all.
Although it cannot be seen, it has no negative impact on the Tao in the body. This can be regarded as an achievement, although this achievement cannot be noticed yet...
After checking his own condition, he sighed softly: "What do you want me to do? It seems that the front is shrouded in thick fog. I don't know how far away I am from the node of Emperor Cheng."
Tianlao suddenly appeared in front of him and said slowly: "If you keep moving forward, you will definitely reach that node and then enter a new world."
Qin Mian smiled bitterly: "God, why do I feel like I'm getting further and further away from Emperor Cheng?"
Qin Zhen came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Boss, don't think so much, just keep walking steadily in the right direction step by step. I don't know how to advance to the later stage, but I feel that as long as I master more big formations, I can master more If there are many high-level formations, it will be possible."
At this time, Qin's formation returned to its spindle shape. During this period, too many residual formations were absorbed, causing him to not only regain his shape, but also grow slightly taller.
Qin Mian was just thinking about how to respond to him when Tianlao continued: "Master, when you were in Canxing, you didn't have so many ideas. Everything was for improvement."
Qin Mian woke up instantly, then fell silent.
Yes, I am thinking more and more now. Although he deceived himself and others that he did not care about the time when he became emperor and firmly believed that he could become emperor, deep down he was stimulated by the series of information obtained in the heaven, and he gradually became anxious about whether he could become emperor. Especially when he realized that he had been making progress in all aspects, but he felt that The farther away you are from Emperor Cheng.
What are you thinking about?
The fact that he can still make progress shows that he had insufficient understanding of the difficulties of becoming an emperor in the past, and his foundation is not very solid.
Isn't the current situation a concrete manifestation of my previous thoughts - laying a solid foundation?
After thinking slowly for a long time, he took a long breath, opened his eyes, and saw Tianlao and Qin Zhen still floating in front of him, he laughed and said: "I thought too much, got anxious, and almost deviated. True intention."
Qin Zhen laughed and said, "That's right. Why do you think so much? Eat whatever you eat to make up for it. If you don't make up for it, just keep eating."
Qin Mian stood up and patted him on the shoulder, smiling and saying, "Yes, as long as you can't hold on until you die, keep eating."
Tianlao Youyou said: "Master, there are many ghost cultivators passing by during this period. They are very panicked and seem to be running for their lives. Can you catch some more and bring them in?"
Qin Mian responded: "I feel that the number is almost the same. If there are more, the space will be crowded, and the Yin Qi will not be able to meet the needs of promotion. There is no mid-term Ghost King now, which is not conducive to the balance of Yin and Yang... Unless we get one A ghost emperor."
Tianlao immediately said: "Yes, get ten or eight ghost emperors, so that we can cultivate mid-term or even late-stage ghost emperors."
Qin Mian opened his mouth and made a whooshing sound from his throat.
God, I have dug a hole for myself a long time ago, and it is not shallow.
Getting ten or eight ghost emperors is as easy as bending down to pick up a small stone in his mouth.
After a while, he
He closed his mouth hard, swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva, and then said, "I'll try my best."
After all, the role of the Heaven and Earth Pot is the same as that of Xuanfu. They are both part of one's inner world. Oneself and the Heaven and Earth Pot promote each other.
When the Heaven and Earth Pot is powerful, its way will feed back on itself, not to mention that the energy essence can be extracted at any time, which can make up for the lack of energy in battle.
As you become stronger and master more principles, the world of pots will also change accordingly.
As the Pot World becomes stronger, it will make oneself stronger; as one becomes stronger, the Pot World will become stronger.
Whether you actively become stronger or passively become stronger, you will ultimately benefit.
In this case, we must work hard.
After leaving the Heaven and Earth Pot, Qin Mian quickly felt the surrounding environment.
The vagina is much thinner, and so is the Yin Qi.
He was a little surprised: "The ghost cultivators are running for their lives in panic, and the environment is recovering. What happened in the past few days?"
When we arrived at the nearest base of a large ghost formation, it had turned into a huge pit, and the formation could not be found. The space cracks that were originally dense were now scattered.
"It should be people from the royal family's ancestral land who fought out. In this case, they should have fought outside. It is really possible to capture a few ghost emperors."
Muttering, he rushed outside.
Ever since he knew that there were still people from the royal family and that they could block the attack of the ghost clan by forming a formation, he knew that his wish to find some classics had failed. It was better to do something practical and absorb more residual formations, so that his formation could be improved. After getting up, the Qin formation can also be restored and improved, and other things can only be planned slowly.
So he and Qin Zhen have been wandering around the inner layer, looking for the remaining formations to absorb, and each of them successfully absorbed dozens of them. Unexpectedly, after coming out of seclusion this time, the outside world has changed.
After walking nearly 100,000 miles, he saw eleven human emperors walking cautiously from the front left, so he stepped forward and asked, "I've seen you all, where are the ghosts?"
The eleven people looked at him with surprised expressions, and a half-step emperor responded: "The ghost clan now occupies a canyon, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. We have surrounded them and are planning to annihilate them."
Qin Mian nodded: "Are you looking for a lonely ghost cultivator?"
The half-step emperor frowned, "Don't you know?"
Qin Mian chuckled and said: "I was seriously injured by a ghost emperor before, and I have just recovered. I don't know much about the current situation."
The vast majority of the patrol team immediately showed admiration on their faces.
The person who was seriously injured when meeting the Ghost Emperor must be someone with strong combat power, so he cannot be worshiped.
There were also two or three people who didn't believe it. One of them seemed to be polite and said: "The emperor met the emperor and did not fall. It is indeed worthy of our admiration. I don't know which tribe your friend is from and how he escaped."
Qin Mian smiled faintly: "My Emperor Qin Mian. As for the way to escape, it is very simple. It punched me and I gave it a talisman. As a result, we were all seriously injured and chose to escape."
The Half-Step Emperor narrowed his eyes, "Qin Mian? Qin Clan?"
Qin Mian nodded: "Yes, Qin Mian, you may not have heard of it."
The seemingly polite emperor said loudly: "You lied! This time seventeen ethnic groups came to help the royal family, and we didn't even have time to notify the Qin family.".
Qin Mian was stunned.
These were reinforcements from the outside world, not from the royal family inside, and there were so many of them. How did the outside human race know?
He was not in a hurry and said calmly: "I don't want to explain these meaningless things to you. I just want to kill ghosts and cultivate. Can any fellow Taoist give me some direction?"
The guy didn't know what was going on. He walked out of the team and yelled, "What's the point of pretending to be the Qin clan?"
Qin Mian narrowed his eyes and said indifferently: "I will not change my name in office or my surname in office, so how can I pretend to say it? If you are not convinced, we can find a ghost emperor to kill you."
The guy said angrily: "In the past few days, many of our emperors and emperors have disappeared. Can't we suspect you, a lone traveler pretending to be a member of the Qin tribe?"
Qin Mian was stunned.
This makes sense and makes me unable to
refute.
The seventeen human tribes who came to help should all look familiar; from the inside, they should also look familiar to the people from the royal family's ancestral land.
There is nothing wrong with doubting yourself.
When he was about to respond, he shouted: "You have nothing to say now, right? Now, you can either seal yourself or let us seal it and hand it over to the Emperor."
Qin Mian said indifferently: "You can doubt me, but it is impossible for me to proclaim myself or be crowned by you. You can follow me to the canyon occupied by the ghost tribe and see how I kill the ghost tribe. You can also separate one from the other and let each go his own way."
To be self-proclaimed or to be proclaimed is to leave your destiny to others. In his memory, there has never been such a sentence, and there will never be one in the future.
The man wanted to say something else, but the half-step emperor pulled him aside, cupped his fists and said, "Qin Mianhuang, I am Zhao Song, from the Zhao clan."
Qin Mian also clasped his fists in return, "I've met Emperor Zhao Song."
Zhao Song said: "In the past two days, dozens of human emperors and emperors have indeed disappeared, so we formed a team to patrol."
Qin Mian responded: "Thank you for your hard work."
Zhao Song smiled bitterly: "It's not a matter of hard work or not, but if there is such an elusive ghost cultivator causing trouble behind our human race, even if there are more than twenty emperors, it will be very uncomfortable."
Qin Mian asked: "How many ghost cultivators are there?"
Zhao Song shook his head: "No one knows. I only know that three early emperors and more than ten emperors have died. Now everyone's nerves are very tense."
Qin Mian nodded: "I know. Now please tell me the direction of the canyon where the ghost tribe is."
Zhao Song meant to forgive the emperor's attitude. In fact, when he heard that so many emperors and emperors had fallen, he had already forgiven him despite not paying much attention to it.
After Zhao Song pointed in the direction, Qin Mian said goodbye to them and reminded them to pay attention to their safety.
Such patrols can deter the ghost cultivator, but they cannot prevent its sneak attacks.
There are times when people are relaxed, there are times when they are tired, and they are more likely to collapse. Such moments are the best time for sneak attacks. This is why it is difficult to guard against thieves for a thousand days.
Not long after leaving their sight, Qin Mian heard roars coming from behind, quickly turned around and flew towards the way he came, and soon saw the battlefield.
Five Zhao clan emperors have died, and the other six are struggling to hold on.
And what they were facing was a head that was absorbing their vitality.
He was shocked: It couldn't be that skull, could it?
