Beiyin Great Sage

After returning to the criminal court and giving a few words to the two women, Zhou Yi went straight to Xiaoheishan.

After going back and forth several times, he was quite familiar with the route. He set out at night and arrived near Fangshi at dawn.

As for why we need to walk at night...

The Zhenyuan Demonic Ape has a strength bonus at night, but it is weakened during the day.

"Array?"

Standing on the top of the mountain, looking down at the cloud-covered city below, Zhou Yi frowned subconsciously.

The aura of the formation was vast and consistent with the aura of the surrounding heaven and earth. Judging from his understanding, it must be a first-level high-grade formation.

Unlike others, the formation is cumbersome and complicated to set up, but once it is formed, it is very powerful.

Although the first-level high-grade ones are still at the Qi refining level, they can compete with Daoji monks, or at least keep Daoji monks out.

The existence of formations in Fangshi means that we have the means to resist foreign enemies, but now Xiaoheishanfang City is jointly managed by three parties.

this means,

Batu Caves has no control over the city.

Even if the cave master is selected in the future, with the formation here, I'm afraid I won't be able to drive away the other two easily.

Zhou Yi shook his head and walked towards Fangshi.

At the entrance of Fangshi, a Batu Cave Tianman handed over a token and explained:

"This is the order of heaven, connected to the formation of Fangshi. Outsiders have to spend spiritual stones to buy it, one piece at a time. Without it, they cannot enter Fangshi."

"Of course, senior brother is a Batu Caves Qigong Master, so there is no need to do this."

Zhou Yi took the token, which was heavy and heavy. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this:

"So, just by selling tokens, Fangshi can earn a lot of spiritual stones?"

"More than that!" Tianman grinned and said:

"The Tianshi Order is only valid for one month. After one month, you need to renew to stay in Fangshi. Otherwise, you will be evicted. This is another huge amount of money."

"pity!"

He looked regretful and sighed softly:

"This thing was refined by people from the Ou family in Wanling Cave, and most of it has been taken over by them."

Zhou Yi understood.

Then he inquired about Kang Rong's situation, said goodbye and went into the market.

After a while, the market became more and more prosperous, with crowds of people and noise everywhere, and the area was several times larger than at the beginning.

"There are still many rich people."

Standing on the long street, Zhou Yi sighed in a low voice:

"One spirit stone a month, and there are so many people?"

But he didn't know that for hundreds of years, because the master of Batu Caves didn't like trouble, there were hardly many outsiders in this vast world.

Not to mention any business exchanges.

Many forces and countless cultivators around us have been looking forward to this day for a long time!

As the first and only city that connects the three major forces of Qianman Mountain, Wanling Cave, and Batu Cave, Xiaoheishanfang City naturally attracts many practitioners.

The meat and spiritual materials from Qianman Mountain, the spiritual stones and elixirs from Wanling Cave, and the red gold sand and venom from Batu Cave are all specialties of each family.

It can only be purchased here.

For practitioners, these things are worth far more than a spiritual stone. When the news spread, many people traveled long distances to come.

Business,

How could it be bad?

And as long as the market continues, business will get better and better, far from reaching its peak.

…………

"Langya Pavilion."

Looking up at the intricately carved jade gatehouse, Zhou Yi stepped into this shop, which was said to be the most comprehensive store selling martial arts in the city.

As for Kangrong...

Not in a hurry.

Zizhen left something on him, making it easy to lock the position.

"Qi refining method?"

The shopkeeper asked the purpose of his visit and gently stroked his beard:

"If it's just the early or middle stage of qi refining, it would be a lot. But what Taoist friends want is a qi refining method that can achieve the Taoist realm."

"The store doesn't have it!"

He said with regret and shook his head.

"Store." Zhou Yi's expression remained unchanged, he took out a flying sword from his storage bag and placed it on the table:

"I'm very sincere."

A mid-grade flying sword of the first level can be advanced to a high-grade first level with a little sacrifice. The market price is almost two hundred spirit stones, which is indeed sincere.

"Well..." The shopkeeper pursed his lips and then smiled:

"Sir, please come upstairs."

The second floor is a private room, and it is obviously equipped with a formation to isolate others from prying eyes. The smoke lingers, making people feel calm.

Zhou Yi sat upright with his eyes closed, leaning against the back of the chair, thoughts swirling in his mind.

According to the Yushu, if you want to advance to the realm of Tao Foundation, you need to have the three perfections of Jing, Qi and Shen, and then supplement it with secret techniques and exercises. Only when the three flowers gather at the top can you build the Tao Foundation.

Refined,

Refers to the physical body.

Don't worry about this.

Among the five poisons and eight evils, the eight evils are the best at tempering the physical body, even better than Qianmanshan, who is famous for his physical strength.

The Zhenyuan Demon Ape is known as Zhenyuan, and it is naturally physically strong.

Nowadays, Zhou Yi's physical body is so strong that he can even resist magical weapons to a certain extent, which is far beyond his peers.

god,

Refers to the soul.

This point is simply incomprehensible to the outer disciples of Batu Cave. They must use the breath of the inner disciples to cleanse their souls.

For Zhou Yi, it doesn't seem to be a big problem at the moment.

With the precious mirror of the suspended heart, you will not lose control before refining your qi to perfection.

What's more, there is also the spirit-transmitting technique. When necessary, you can use the blood essence of the inner disciples to stabilize yourself. The soul-swallowing technique can greatly increase the power of the soul.

The only problem is the mana.

The longevity skill reaches its limit in the late stage of Qi refining. This is not something that can be solved with increasing proficiency, but the limit of the skill.

Even if the limit is exceeded,

If there is no other method to refer to, perfection will not be achieved.

"Sir, I've been waiting for a long time."

A soft female voice floated over, causing Zhou Yi to open his eyes.

The person who came was wearing a wide-collared blue silk robe, a shawl with two phoenix wings spread over it, and a emerald pearl on his head. He had a delicate face. He walked slowly up to him and bowed:

"I am Wang Shu, and I have met my Taoist friend."

Late stage of Qi refining!

The woman in front of her was clearly a great monk in the late stage of Qi refining, and her Qi was so condensed that it was much stronger than Yushu.

Zhou Yi did not dare to neglect, stood up and saluted:

"Sanren Zhou Jia, I have met fellow Taoist."

At this time, he was wearing a black robe, his aura was restrained, and his body shape had become short and thin. Even an acquaintance would not recognize him in person.

Although Wang Shu was curious about the visitor's identity, she didn't ask any more questions. After all, it was very common for guests who didn't want to meet their true faces. After sitting down, she waved and released a few jade slips:

"To be honest, the methods for advancing to the Taoist level are secretly taught by various schools, and some are shady, so they are usually not sold to outsiders."

"Uncle Mu just had a collision, I hope fellow Taoist fellow Taoist you don't mind."

"It doesn't matter." Zhou Yi nodded to express his understanding, lowered his head and looked at the jade slip:

"How many of these doors are there?"

"Yes." Wang Shu stretched out her hand to indicate:

"Fellow Taoist, you can take a look first."

Zhou Yi was not polite, he picked up a spiritual thought and swept it inward, and the general outline of a method called "Shuiyun Jue" was reflected in the sea of ​​​​consciousness.

The general outline is just a brief introduction to the method, and there is no specific method of practice.

"Um?"

Frowning, Zhou Yi put down Shuiyun Jue and picked up a jade slip again.

"Secret of Condensation"

"Fu Yang Gong"

"Zhengyuan Danshu"

…

There are six skills in total, among which "Zhengyuan Danshu" is the highest grade, reaching the second-level low-grade. Unfortunately, there are some shortcomings in the description of the skills.

This skill is complete, it is a method that directly points to the realm of golden elixir!

Even after you have achieved the Dao Foundation, you can continue to practice.

The others are mostly first-level mid-level and first-level high-level, each with its own characteristics. In theory, they can all be cultivated to the Taoist realm.

"Fellow."

Zhou Yi looked thoughtful and asked:

"What's the price?"

"Eight hundred spiritual stones for Shuiyun Jue, nine hundred spiritual stones for Ningzhen Jue and Fuyang Gong..., three thousand spiritual stones for Zhengyuan Danjue." Wang Shu said:

"Fellow Taoist, don't be too expensive, this kind of thing is priceless!"

Zhou Yi shook his head gently:

"It is true that the skills are rare, but they can be copied and copied. Whether they can be successful in practice has always had little to do with the rarity of the method, but depends on the person."

"There is no shortage of methods that some people have tried to practice."

It is precisely because of this that, in his opinion, practicing Kung Fu is not difficult to solve, but you just need to choose a method that suits you.

"That's true, but it's difficult to tell the authenticity of the exercises sold outside. Sometimes a wrong word may cost the practitioner's life." Wang Shu said without changing her expression:

"The exercises here are guaranteed to be accurate word for word. If you buy the method, you will also get the training experience and welcome handouts of previous generations."

"Well..." Zhou Yi lowered his head and said after a long time:

"It's still too expensive."

"The price is negotiable." Wang Shu's eyes flashed with a smile.

If the other party reacts like this, it means there is a way.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows and said hurriedly:

"Fellow Taoist, I have something urgent and I need to leave. I'll talk about the exercises next time. If necessary, I will definitely choose this place first."

"Farewell!"

After saying that, without waiting for the other party to answer, he stood up and walked downstairs, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Wang Shu was left standing there with a confused look on her face.

What are you doing?

*

*

*

"You actually left Fangshi?"

"Isn't there still a few days left?"

Zhou Yi was holding something like a compass, leaping through the mountains and forests, lowering his head from time to time to look at the instructions on the compass.

But just when he was tempted and was about to bargain and find a way to win the skill, the compass that locked onto Kang Rong's aura suddenly reacted.

According to what Zizhen said.

Recently, there seems to be a problem in Xiaoheishanfang City, so Kang Rong was sent to investigate, fearing that something bad might happen to him.

So let Zhou Yi go over and bring the person back.

Nowadays, the masters of Batu Caves are all gathered on the top of Batu Mountain. There are few strong people outside. It is easy for him to bring people back.

But if you think about it carefully, this thing is weird in every way.

Who is Kangrong?

Tianman, who has not long since advanced to become a Qi Refiner!

Maybe he hasn't even mastered a single spell.

With his cultivation and strength, wouldn't it be a joke to investigate Xiaoheishanfang City? Zizhen can't reach this level no matter how close she is to him.

and.

The compass in Zhou Yi's hand was of extremely high grade, and it was used to locate Kang Rong. Why would it do this to an outer disciple who was in the early stages of Qi refining?

In addition, he was asked to come to meet Kang Rong...

If what you are doing is very important, why would you let yourself do it?

Is this a test for the two of them?

"snort!"

"As expected of a superior person, his mind is complicated and meticulous, making it difficult for people to figure it out, but I just need to take him back to get the secret."

"The worst case scenario is that you will be unable to retreat or stay far away after you start the magic method. No matter how many tricks you have, it will be useless!"

As his thoughts turned, Zhou Yi suddenly paused and looked to the side with doubt in his eyes. Then his breath converged and he disappeared.

…………

"Wow!"

"Crash..."

There were constant strange noises in the mountains and forests, and Kang Rong's expression gradually became serious.

finally.

"boom!"

Like a meteorite hitting the ground, a figure fell from the sky and landed heavily on the ground in front of him. The shock force spread along the ground in all directions.

Kang Rong used his body skills to stabilize his body, looked at the person coming, his eyes shrank:

"It's you!"

"Not bad." Zhao Kui stood with his hands behind his back and looked at him coldly:

"it is me."

"Senior Brother Zhao, as an inner disciple of Batu Cave, Zhen Zhenzhen regarded you as his right-hand man, but you actually betrayed her." Looking at the other party, Kang Rong shook his head with regret:

"If Zizhen's true biography is known, I wonder how he will react?"

The person who came was unexpectedly the talker arranged by Batu Caves to be in charge of Xiaoheishan, Zhao Kui, an inner disciple with advanced Qi refining skills.

This person is more like a jade book, and he is a member of Zizhen Immortal Master, but now it seems that there have been some changes.

"snort!"

Facing Kang Rong's questioning, Zhao Kui just snorted:

"In this world, the law of the jungle is the law of the jungle. Senior Brother Linshang is stronger than her. The position of the master of Batu Cave must belong to senior brother."

"she……"

"Sooner or later, there will be no escape!"

"That's it." Kang Rong understood:

"No wonder the number of spiritual talismans and thunder beads purchased by Fangshi during the recent period has dropped significantly. On the contrary, Linshang's side suddenly has the upper hand."

"but……"

"Do you really think Linshang is stronger than Zizhen's true biography?"

Hearing this, Zhao Kui's expression changed slightly.

He knew clearly which of the two true successors was stronger, but Linshang had given him enough benefits, and that was enough for him.

"A dying person, why bother talking so much nonsense." Looking at Kang Rong, Zhao Kui waved his hand with a cold face:

"superior!"

As soon as the sound fell, several figures rushed out from the mountain forest, accompanied by various auras, blasting towards Kang Rong's location indiscriminately.

The visitors were not only Tianman from Batu Cave, but also Qigong practitioners from outside.

It seems that when Zhao Kui was in charge of Xiaoheishanfang City, he secretly recruited a lot of helpers, and this time they all used them to entertain Kang Rong.

In the eyes of others, it seems that there is no need to go to war to deal with a small Kang Rong.

But Zhao Kui knew that this person should not be underestimated!

"boom!"

There was a roar.

The next moment.

A dazzling sword light penetrated from the many auras, like thunder from the sky falling to the ground, blooming like spider web-like patterns.

"Crack..."

"Uh-huh!"

The lightning flashed away.

Kang Rong was wrapped in golden light and rushed forward, and several figures behind him fell to the ground one after another.

He actually managed to break out of the siege with many attacks, and even took the opportunity to counterattack, killing several Qi Masters with an exquisite sword technique.

"High-quality magic weapon!"

"The best sword technique!"

"Cultivation in the middle stage of Qi refining!"

Looking at this scene, Zhao Kui couldn't help but widen his eyes and gritted his steel teeth:

"Okay, very good. I knew you were hiding your tricks. No wonder Zi Zhen asked you to come over to investigate me. You are really good at it."

Even so, he was not afraid, and even disdained to use his own methods. Faced with the oncoming Kang Rong, he shook his hands and threw more than a dozen talismans.

Flame Talisman, Black Ice Talisman, Golden Knife Talisman, Trapped Wood Talisman...

As one of the three giants in Fang City, Zhao Kui has accumulated so many spiritual talismans?

Not just talismans.

He waved his hand again, and a dozen round thunderballs flew out, intertwined with lightning, and blasted dazzling thunder towards the figure in front.

With such means, not to mention Kang Rong, even Zhou Yi would have to flee as far as he could.
