Do not die

Just do it if you think of it.

Meng Zhou now has the power to make such an attempt.

What are you waiting for?

Three days later.

In the soul pool, within the bright moon like a jade plate, a seed appeared.

As soon as this seed was born, it quickly took root and sprouted, and its roots penetrated deeply into the Soul Pond Bright Moon.

The branches quickly became taller and larger, with lush branches and leaves, and gradually grew into the familiar appearance of Meng Zhou.

Visualization is the foundation and core of the soul refining method.

The strength of the soul refining method is somewhat related to the grandeur of the visual image, but there is no necessary correlation.

It does not mean that the more grand and magnificent the visualization picture is, the more powerful the soul refining method will be.

Visualizing pictures is not a game of imagination. Its core is very rigorous and solid, because it is completely built on the soul. This rigorous and solid nature even goes beyond the refinement of Qi in Dantian and the refinement of flesh and blood.

For cultivators, when exposed to a soul-refining method, regardless of other requirements, the most basic one is that they cannot forcefully challenge or violate the basic understanding that the cultivator has already formed.

For example, flames, people will naturally connect them with images such as burning, burning, rising, destruction, enthusiasm, movement, and light.

Ice naturally makes people associate it with images such as extreme cold, stiffness, sluggishness, silence, death, and desolation.

If a certain soul refining method forcibly contradicts this understanding, it cannot be said to be wrong, but except for geniuses and lunatics, 99% of normal people cannot even visualize the entry smoothly.

In this world, although there is a bright moon, and there are also changes in the moon, the moon will wax and wane, but the full moon is just a flawless white jade plate.

Therefore, in the minds of monks who were born and raised in this world, it is completely unimaginable for a tree to grow above the bright moon.

Even if they are forced to accept this, it is impossible to successfully visualize such a picture - there is no such concept at all.

But to Meng Zhou, this was a matter of course and what should have been done.

On the contrary, it was the flawless bright moon before that made him feel a little "flawed".

Now, as a laurel tree "grows" out of this visual image, he feels that it is more pleasing to the eye.

It’s also more real.

What's even more amazing is that this laurel tree exists in the bright moon when he is imagining the bright moon. When Meng Zhou's consciousness hangs high in the sea of ​​​​consciousness and overlooks the soul pond, this tree is like a two-dimensional sticker, which is stuck on the bright moon at the bottom of the pond. above.

But when he focused his consciousness on visualizing the bright moon itself, the "laurel tree" became three-dimensional again.

On one side, it sinks its roots deeply into the contemplation of the bright moon, the moon and tree become one, and the two become one;

On the other hand, he tried his best to explore the sky to show his life posture and not to become a foil for the bright moon.

After going back and forth to carefully experience the various changes brought about by this new soul refining method, Meng Zhou withdrew from the sea of ​​​​consciousness with some reluctance.

Judging from the soul refining method status information alone, it seems that nothing has changed.

It is still called Soul Pool Refining Moon Heart, and the experience level is the same as before, still Dacheng 4300/8000, which is no different from before this time.

Meng Zhou guessed that the original soul refining method was already the highest level among the second-level soul refining methods. Now that there have been changes, it is still the highest level.

This is a bit like a top student's 100% score, but in fact it is "dragged down" by the fact that the full score is only 100.

But it's not like there's no change at all.

Among the talents, a new talent has been added next to "Moon Mirror".

"The heart of nature." Meng Zhou whispered softly, and stepped out of the quiet room and came to the courtyard.

He stretched out his hand and pressed it on the trunk of the Qingling tea tree. He felt a faint feeling of comfort and laziness.

Or, it cannot be called "emotion", because that would make it appear that this Qingling tea tree has a certain degree of self-will.

To be more precise, this is a "simulated emotion" obtained by processing the spiritual vitality and even the entire life state of the Qingling Tea Tree through the special talent of "Heart of Nature".

Meng Zhou stretched out his hand and pinched off a leaf from the Qingling tea tree. Immediately, he felt "nervous".

Then, Meng Zhou used Qi-regulating, rejuvenating, and wind-breeding techniques to "pacify" her, and the "tension" gradually turned into "comfort" and "joy."

"This talent is really a good match for a spiritual planter."

…

In addition to the benefits brought by the soul refining method itself, Meng Zhou is also very concerned about the changes in the Dao Heart Oath.

As early as when the spiritual seed appeared on the bright moon rather than in the soul pool, the oath threads that circled the soul pool began to loosen and break little by little.

When the new soul refining method was integrated and completely finalized, the oath thread finally stopped being damaged, but more than half of it was already missing.

This is reflected in data changes, which is more intuitive.

"Tao Heart Oath·Hidden Binding: 320/1000"

The fact that so much of it collapsed at one time shows that the soul refining method of the Spirit Tree Towering Diagram does not account for a very high proportion in Meng Zhou's soul refining method. It only absorbs a part, about 30%, of the core essence.

This is certainly good news.

"Looking at the trend, when my soul refining method is promoted from master to grandmaster, I will be able to completely break the remaining constraints." Meng Zhou thought in his heart.

…

After adapting to the new soul refining method, Meng Zhou prepared to continue practicing the wall penetration technique.

Suddenly he felt abnormal fluctuations in spiritual energy not far away, and Meng Zhou turned his head to take a look.

I saw a huge cloud and rain group covering almost a quarter of the thousand-acre spiritual field, quickly appearing over the spiritual field, and soon, raindrops fell in succession on the spiritual field.

In the spiritual field, thousands of acres of spiritual seedlings that were originally less than ten centimeters tall have grown to over fifty centimeters in just a few days.

This is because they have all been more or less wrapped around the pergola three or five times. If they were straightened out, they would not be far from one meter long.

These spiritual seedlings and vines absorb the spiritual rainwater with an almost greedy attitude.

Roots, long stems, and leaves, every part of their bodies are trying their best to extract rainwater full of spiritual energy from the outside world.

The spiritual rain in this area has not ended yet, and a cloud and rain group has also risen in another spiritual field area covering an area of ​​nearly 200 acres.

Meng Zhou's sight had also caught two unfamiliar foundation-building monks, who were casting rain spells on their thousand-acre spiritual field. They were serious and meticulous, without any confusion.

Seeing this, Meng Zhou suddenly felt a little ashamed.

A flying knowledge message was immediately sent out.

According to the characteristics of Jade Heart Zhu Guo, it would have been impossible for him to be so relaxed.

Starting from the first day of the first lunar month, they will begin a three-month period of rapid growth and development, and their demand for spiritual rain will be very large.

If President Pan hadn't promised that someone would take good care of him, he wouldn't have been able to stay in seclusion for a few days with peace of mind.

Another breakthrough in cultivation, from the early stage of foundation building to the middle stage of foundation building, and he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the version upgrade of the soul refining method.

Meng Zhou is not a person who likes to just take advantage of others. Since others have given him such great convenience, he will reciprocate accordingly without being reminded.

Soon, Meng Zhou received the message from Governor Li. After collecting Yaya into the sea of ​​consciousness, Meng Zhou set off immediately.

About a day later, Meng Zhou flew back from a distance at high speed.

I took a look at the spiritual plants in my spiritual field. Compared with what I saw more than a day ago, they were different.

At the same location in the spiritual field, there happened to be two more foundation-building monks casting spells to make rain.

If the spiritual plant hadn't grown again, Meng Zhou would have doubted whether time had passed.

Seeing that everything was fine, Meng Zhou didn't look any further and turned back to the courtyard.

Half a day later, Meng Zhou flew away again, leaving only an empty and wet courtyard.

During the half-day return, Governor Li was told to "rest". Governor Li's reaction was normal, and he even wanted to let him rest for a few more days. Half a day was too tight.

But the truth is that Meng Zhou came back to water the spiritual plants in the courtyard, feed animal pills to the mysterious turtle, and sort out the blood and qi.

After leaving this time, I came back again on the afternoon of the tenth day of the first lunar month.

This continuous running around for many days, regardless of the interpersonal relationships, is just the result of cultivation.

Because his cultivation has broken through to the middle stage of foundation building, his magic power has been greatly improved compared to the past, and he has mastered the art of removing filth to a minor level. With such cultivation, he doesn't have to worry about being timid.

Therefore, Meng Zhou suspended the use of the Eight Medicine Techniques and instead focused on the connection of the art of dispelling filth.

Therefore, the experience gained is also the experience of removing filth.

The experience of removing filth is +3000, and you can directly jump from the minor level to the Dacheng level and advance to the master level.

"Master of Disinfection Art 570/4000"

…

After releasing Yaya from the sea of ​​consciousness, Meng Zhou groomed the bodies of the two mysterious turtles.

It took a while to feel that the negative energy in my body was released and emptied, so I practiced the wall-penetrating technique in a quiet room.

Wait until he sits cross-legged in the quiet room and enters the retreat again.

The intermittent practice of wall penetration also brought him 1,200 experience points, "Master 2000/4000".

…

The thirteenth day of the first lunar month, early morning.

Cultivation progress +60, foundation building level 4 is 96/1000;

Second level Spring Water Sutra +600, Master 5400/16000;

Soul Pool Refining Moon Heart +500, Dacheng 4800/8000;

Black Turtle Body Refining Technique +500, Master 1080/9600.

"According to the current progress, whether it is cultivation, the Spring Water Scripture, or the soul refining method, it will take several months to accumulate it with peace of mind."

"On the contrary, the body-training method with the lowest foundation still has a lot of potential to be tapped."

With this in mind, Meng Zhou immediately checked the situation of the two mysterious turtles after leaving seclusion, and then began to practice the wall penetration technique.

Two days later, he called Governor Li on the fly and asked him to arrange his itinerary.

After receiving the message from him, Meng Zhou left the courtyard and began to do "volunteer work."

Under Ji Zhu's flying escape, the entire Sanchuan Plain is not very big. In addition, the Sanchuan Club's scheduling arrangements will fully take into account the distance factor. It is impossible not to stay close to him and deliberately transfer him to another place far away.

Therefore, even if Meng Zhou gathered a lot of energy while flying, he didn't spend much time running around. Most of the time he was in the fields.

It's equivalent to moving to another place to practice leveling spells.

Such regular daily life has passed by in the blink of an eye.

…

The sixth day of February. noon.

As Meng Zhou walked directly through the wall from the quiet room again, the wall penetration technique finally accumulated to the limit of the master and reached perfection.

Immediately afterwards, a steady stream of new experiences and insights poured into my mind.

Combined with the other ten second-level spells that had been cultivated to perfection earlier, Meng Zhou felt blessed for a moment.

After reflecting on the spot for a moment, Meng Zhou came to the wall of the quiet room, closed his eyes, and stepped forward again.

There was no deliberate move. The moment his body touched the wall, it naturally melted into it. But just when he was about to pass through the wall, he suddenly stopped.

Let the body and the wall be in a superimposed state of two-in-one.

Meng Zhou felt this wonderful feeling, and then he moved.

Instead of moving forward, he "sinked" downward.

Just like that, his figure sank from "the wall" into the earth in this wonderful state.

The deeper he sank, Meng Zhou felt that the bottom was getting harder and harder, and finally, it was as hard as a big steel plate.

Meng Zhou did not force his way in, but chose to "float" upward.

Soon, his head emerged from the ground, then his neck, upper body, and finally his legs.

When his feet touched the ground again, his figure also retreated from that strange state.

In the personal information skill category, it can be clearly seen that Meng Zhou mastered one more spell out of thin air!

"Introduction to Earth Escape Technique 20/250"

Meng Zhou did not stop. When his magic power recovered, he started to try again.

He came to stand in front of the high wall of the water storage pond, pondered for a moment, and then his body smoothly submerged into the high wall.

He submerged behind the high wall without stopping. He stepped over the fifty-centimeter-thick high wall in one step and entered the pond.

Although his figure entered the water environment, he did not show his figure. Instead, he remained in the same state as when he passed through the high wall - completely integrated into the surrounding environment, but the environment itself had changed. , from the familiar "wall environment" to the unfamiliar "water environment".

When he got out of this state, he saw a figure quietly emerging from the water.

At this moment, Meng Zhou's personal information once again contained a spell ability.

"Introduction to Water Escape Technique 20/250"

There is absolutely no obstacle to mastering these two new spells.

Meng Zhou didn't even study through magic books, he mastered it naturally, as if it came naturally.

When he perfected the wall-penetrating technique, many new experiences and insights naturally emerged in his mind, and his understanding of the technique reached a point where he "ignored the specific methods and pointed directly to the core essence."

If he only mastered the wall penetration technique to perfection alone, he would still be one layer away from this "core essence", but combined with the experience brought to him by the perfection flying escape technique, perfect stealth technique, and perfect invisibility technique, the feeling would be very clear. .

According to Meng Zhou's understanding, the moment he passed through the wall, it was not that his flesh and blood body really became empty, but that he relied on the power of a higher dimension.

The so-called high dimension is relative to the real world.

The real world is full of colors and shapes, including mountains, water, gold, wood, and all things.

But when he perfected the flying escape technique, Meng Zhou had the experience that the whole world was like an endless and vast deep sea.

In that kind of "deep sea experience", all the various colors and shapes of the real world are eliminated, leaving only the deep sea itself that is silent and motionless, and seems to be ripples at any time.

The wall-penetrating technique is to allow the body to cleverly and briefly "borrow" here when performing this technique, thereby avoiding the obstruction of the wall in the real world.

However, for those who master this magic, they only know how to use it, but they don't know why.

He just felt that he could do it. As for why he could do it, he himself couldn't explain clearly.

Only people like Meng Zhou who have practiced this technique to perfection, and even practiced the flying escape technique, stealth technique, and invisibility technique to perfection at the same time, can they "suddenly realize".

These spells seem to be different, but in fact, their source core is in the same place, but the usage techniques are different.

And with this understanding, Meng Zhou understood two other spells that were closely related to these spells without the need for any spell books.

Earth escape technique, water escape technique.

However, the reason why Meng Zhou was able to comprehend these two spells so smoothly was also related to his profound understanding of the two natures of water and earth.

Needless to say, the water element. The first martial art he practiced to perfection, the water step, gave him a superficial understanding of the nature of water. As this martial art became natural, his body's water element talent was naturally further strengthened. .

What's more, the fundamental methods learned through cultivation, from the Water Nourishment and Moisturizing Technique to the Spring Water Sutra, are all water-based exercises.

And the three-pole practice framework he built by himself is completely centered on water.

Therefore, after he successfully glimpsed the essence of escape through the wall-penetrating technique, it was logical to master water escape.

And his understanding of the nature of soil comes from Yaya.

He has now basically confirmed that to him, Yaya is a natal magic weapon with spiritual intelligence.

The natal magic weapon has a basic nature, "What's yours is mine, and what's mine is still mine."

Since Yaya advanced to the second level, the range of recipes has increased from pure wood to the second element of earth and wood. This has also made his knowledge of the second element of earth and wood far superior to other elements.

"If the environment is suitable, I can also try to activate the wood escape technique."

Meng Zhou thought so in his heart.

However, at this stage, this is probably his limit.

Anyway, if he were asked to activate the fire escape technique in the volcanic lava, or the gold escape technique in the underground mineral veins, he would not have the will to die.

"However, even so, in terms of the number of escape techniques, few of the foundation-building monks can surpass me, right?"

…

During this break, he perfected the wall-penetrating technique, and also learned two new spells without a teacher.

Then, Meng Zhou went out to do "volunteer work" for more than a day.

In fact, Governor Li had already hinted to him, saying that after two or three months of efforts by the Sanchuan Society, not only had they found a few monks who were proficient in the art of regulating qi.

At the same time, more than a dozen fellow foundation builders who can use the art of regulating qi have been successfully trained.

"We can basically make arrangements now. If Brother Zhuang is busy, you can ignore this matter from now on."

Do you want to kick me out of the car now?

no way!

Meng Zhou thought this in his heart, but said sincerely: "It's okay, I don't like to give up halfway. Since I agreed, I will go to the end!"

What he was thinking about was that now was the peak of his thirst for water in his thousand acres of spiritual land.

Almost every day, he could see foundation-building monks arranged by the Sanchuan Society coming to his spiritual field to cast spells and rain.

It is this kind of proper and thoughtful care that ensures that all the jade-heart red fruit seedlings and vines in the thousand-acre spiritual field grow extremely well. In just less than forty days, the spiritual seedlings that were originally less than ten centimeters tall have now grown on the vines. The shelf grew to nearly ten meters long. Of course, according to this world's parlance, it was nearly three feet long.

Both Governor Li and Zhu Qian said that the growth has surpassed that of ordinary jade-heart red fruits. This is related to Meng Zhou waking them up from the spiritual field more than a month in advance and enduring the hardships of winter before the arrival of spring.

But also for this reason, their demand for spiritual water exceeds the normal Jade Heart Crimson Fruit.

If he doesn't volunteer at this time, President Pan's promise will naturally come to an end, and he will be responsible for the rainfall in this thousand acres of spiritual land alone.

Meng Zhou estimated that even with his current cultivation level of the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, even if he could perfect the Cloud and Rain Technique in a short period of time, he would not have much time to do other things in the next month or so.

Even practicing in seclusion, you probably have to half-open one eye.

How can I ask you to give up your pick at this time?

Now, after each retreat, Meng Zhoudu goes out to do volunteer work for a day to get used to it, and then comes back to rest for a while, and then goes out to do volunteer work for another day.

In exchange for these ten days, two days, and six days in January, I no longer have to worry about the rain in Lingtian.

…

The eighth day of February.

After returning from another trip, Meng Zhou came to the high wall.

He reached out to explore the bottom of the water and photographed a huge mysterious turtle that had grown to about seven meters in diameter out of the water.

When the Xuanling Turtle, who had just woken up from a deep sleep, saw Meng Zhou, he was first flustered, and then showed a fawning expression.

Meng Zhou smiled and said, "Now you two have eaten all the beast pills in my hand."

After hearing his words, Xuanling Turtle first showed a fleeting look of surprise, and then turned into a cute and innocent look, as if to say:

"Baba, this matter has nothing to do with me."

However, Meng Zhou's next words sent it into the abyss.

"However, the good news is that you two are indeed very competitive. With my conditioning, you have now grown to the first level limit. Therefore, I have decided to help you complete your bloodline transformation now!"

The Xuanling Turtle's expression was completely frozen.

Meng Zhou had a huge beast ball in his hand and said, "Come on, be good and open your mouth."

Under his pretended angry expression, the Xuanling Turtle obediently opened its tightly closed mouth and swallowed the beast pellet that Meng Zhou had fed to his mouth.

As the power of the beast pill exploded from its abdomen and quickly spread throughout its limbs and bones, Meng Zhou's magic power, which was comparable to a second-level high-grade special spiritual object, had already built a strong defense line in all the vital parts of its body in time.

The bloodline promotion of the Xuanling Turtle may mean an unbearable nightmare memory for the turtle in question, but for Meng Zhou, it is an interesting "tower defense game".

What he needs to do is to save the life of the Xuanling Turtle before his bloodline sublimates and his body undergoes a violent transformation.

In the past few months, compared to when the Xuanling Turtle was promoted from the first-level mid-level to the first-level high-level, Meng Zhou's abilities in all aspects have been comprehensively improved.

It's not that difficult.

What is worth mentioning is the second-order low-grade beast pill he fed to the Xuanling Turtle.

It is actually made from five spiritual elixirs as raw materials, plus some simple ingredients.

These five spirit-raising elixirs are the five second-level low-grade elixirs that Meng Zhou concocted last year in order to improve his alchemy skills. Penance.

Ever since these five elixirs were refined, they have been gathering dust in the corners of space.

Because of his special method of making elixirs, after experiencing the identity of "Mengzhuang", Meng Zhou no longer wanted to make money by selling elixirs unless he had to.

When preparing for the Xuanling Turtle to break through to the second level, Meng Zhou originally wanted Yang Chong to look for some second-level spiritual herbs and elixirs. He also considered that it would be difficult for him to do this because of his Qi training, but he didn't want to Open your mouth to Sanchuanhui.

While he was thinking about it, he remembered these five spiritual elixirs that had been idle for a long time.

Then, he was pleasantly surprised to find that with just some minor adjustments to the Spirit-Shengping Pill, it was a beast pill that was very suitable for use by the Xuanling Turtle.

So why are you still hesitating? Meng Zhou immediately gave up the idea of ​​outsourcing and adjusted the five spiritual elixirs into two beast pills.

After a beast pellet enters the abdomen, it is like a match lighting up a gasoline barrel.

The Xuanling Turtle's bloodline, which had accumulated to the limit of the first level, began to boil and erupt like a volcano.

Not surprisingly, the heart and blood vessels, which were the first to suffer, immediately burst inch by inch.

However, it is no surprise that under Meng Zhou's preparation, although they were broken, they still perfectly performed the duties that the heart and blood vessels should perform.

Moreover, in this extreme desperate situation, they are still surrounded by a strong vitality and are constantly being healed.

Then, it kept falling apart.

Healing, cracking, cracking, healing... This wonderful "shattering feeling" quickly spreads throughout the Xuanling Turtle as the bloodline transformation deepens.

How does Xuanling Turtle feel?

For reasons of humanity, just ignore it.

When the Xuanling Turtle's boiling bloodline calmed down again, its size increased from about seven meters in diameter to an exaggerated diameter of about ten meters.

Compared with before the transformation, the aura of the whole body has also undergone a qualitative change.

From gentle and peaceful to deep and heavy, there is a hidden violence that seems to be like a mountain torrent bursting its banks at any time.

The Xuanling Turtle's pupils were stained with traces of blood red.

However, just when its violent aura was flowing and it was about to vent, it saw Meng Zhou looking at it with a calm and gentle expression.

Before this violent breath could be vented, the ice melted and the snow melted in an instant.

His pupils, which had quietly turned a trace of blood red, became clear and transparent again, showing a fawning smile towards Meng Zhou.

Meng Zhou smiled and said to him: "There's no point in trying to flatter him. The beast pill is gone. You can just grow it slowly now."

Hearing him announce such a "bad news", the Xuanling Turtle became even more fawning.

Meng Zhou waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's go."

This mysterious turtle sank neatly into the water.

Meng Zhou looked at another mysterious turtle that had surfaced on the water at some point.

He waved: "Are you anxious? Come on, it's your turn now!"

Hearing this, the Xuanling Turtle closed his eyes and swam slowly to Meng Zhou's side with a determined attitude.

After a while, as a thick layer of blood scab fell off, another second-level low-grade mysterious turtle emerged freshly.

Let them have fun in the pond, while Meng Zhou closed his eyes under the eaves of the elegant house, facing the lush green courtyard.

On his knees, there was a Xuanling tortoise shell lying flat, and his hands naturally caressed it.

This Xuanling turtle shell itself was obtained from a quasi-third-order Xuanling turtle, and there are strong traces of life left in it.

Even without two Xuanling turtle eggs and without observing the first-level growth process of the two Xuanling turtles, Meng Zhou could still create a Xuanling body-refining method with the help of this quasi-third-level Xuanling turtle shell.

Moreover, the starting quality is even much higher than when he first created this body training method.

In the end, he did not do this, but instead took a more clumsy path, simply because he hoped that this body-training method that he had explored and created by himself would have a solid enough foundation.

Is there any foundation that is thicker and more solid than the one that pushed them all the way from the broken shell to the first level of extreme bloodline, until they sublimated and transformed to the second level?

There is a sufficiently solid and thick foundation below, and a sufficiently open road ahead to lead.

I can’t say how high the level of the third level is, but at least I ensure that I can walk through the second level without any hindrance.

With all these accumulated blessings, Meng Zhou is confident that he can create a body-training method that can be ranked among the top level two.

The rhythm of breathing, flesh and blood, fascia, organs and bones are all moving in a natural rhythm, and they are all changing quietly and smoothly.

When all these changes stopped, Meng Zhou closed his eyes and reflected on himself.

Originally, the physical training achievement was between the mid-second level and the late second-level. Now, it is completely stable at the late second-level.

In the message, Black Turtle's body-training method changed once again.

From "Master 2080/9600" to "Dacheng 5830/6000", another level drop.

However, this is not a bad thing, it means that the foundation of the body training method has become deeper again.

But Meng Zhou was also a little unhappy.

As he looked deeper, Meng Zhou's brows furrowed more and more tightly.

"This time, I have really reached my limit. Even if I can push the two Xuanling Turtles further and upgrade their bloodline to the second-level mid-level or even the second-level high-level, I will at most improve some details. The general framework will not be possible anymore. changed."

"The current situation is basically the ultimate achievement of the second-level body training method."

But the difference between it and the Chun Shui Jing and the soul refining method is obvious.

And it is not difficult to find the answer to this question.

"Whether it is the Spring Water Scripture or the Soul Refining Method, although they are only second-level methods, they all use higher-level cores and outlines."

"But this body-training method I created is different. It is completely based on the Xuanling Turtle. Its ultimate achievement is the second-level limit.

Without the core guidance of a higher level, relying on this body training method, I can practice the body training method to the second level limit, but I will never be able to achieve the third level body training with it. "

"This is the biggest difference between the body refining method I created and the Spring Water Sutra and the soul refining method."

Meng Zhou thought of a saying that was almost engraved in the depths of his soul, "Integrate theory with practice."

What the Spring Water Sutra and the Soul Refining Method have in common is that they have both theory and practice.

And the body-training method he created is all practical and practical from beginning to end.

Thinking of this, Meng Zhou understood.

"Well, we still need to draw a big picture for it and establish a higher-level general outline."

But once he understood it, he understood it, but when it came to actually doing it, Meng Zhou was completely blind.

There is no idea.

Meng Zhou thought about it for a while and decided to seal up these thoughts for the time being.

Let’s leave this question for later.

Now?

Of course it's a retreat.

Late at night on the 10th day of February, Meng Zhou entered the country again.

His consciousness is already high in the sky, overlooking the power flowing and circulating like water.

His body sat cross-legged in the quiet room, motionless.

And just about halfway through this retreat, his muscles and body suddenly underwent a violent transformation. His bones creaked softly, his fascia stretched like a bowstring, and under his skin, streams of energy and blood rolled like marbles.

The powerful beating of the heart delivers blood full of vitality and potential to all parts of the body.

All these changes made his body like a constantly burning oven, and invisible momentum spread like heat waves.

Spreading from the quiet room into the courtyard, Yaya, who was hiding in a bamboo leaf, jumped up alertly and came to guard the door of the quiet room.

This "heat wave" spread into the pond, and the two mysterious turtles that were having fun immediately retracted all their limbs, heads and tails into their turtle shells.

Finally, this "heat wave" stopped at the edge of the courtyard and was blocked and dissipated by the formation.

The drastic changes happening outside the body, in Meng Zhou's subjective feeling, are just slight adjustments in the circulation of Qi and blood in the three poles.

Until February 13th, early morning.

After the three poles of circulation ended, Meng Zhou woke up from this retreat and noticed the transformation of his body.

"The body refining method has once again broken through to the master level."

[Black Turtle Body Refining Master 330/12000]

This transformation has put his body refining achievements in the middle to late stage of the second level, comparable to monks at the eighth or ninth level of foundation building.

"However, now, only the resistance to beating has been improved to this level, but the attack methods are much lacking."

There is nothing that can be done about it. Although he has been practicing hard since he broke through the foundation building, and his growth progress is very fast, the time is still too short, and there is still a big gap between all aspects of homework and the real later stage of foundation building. .

However, Meng Zhou was not impatient about this.

Except for the body training method, the progress in other aspects is also in line with expectations.

Cultivation progress +60, foundation building level 4 276/1000;

Second level Spring Water Sutra +600, Master 7200/16000;

Soul Pool Refining Moon Heart +500, Dacheng 6300/8000;

Black Turtle Body Refining Technique +500, Master 330/12000.

…

After coming out of seclusion this time, Meng Zhou looked at various skills and spent some time to perfect the Flying Sense Technique that he had already broken through to the master level and could easily gain experience.

After the completion of this technique, Meng Zhou's maximum communication distance reached five thousand miles.

"It seems that summons from thousands of miles away is really not an easy task."

At this time, Meng Zhou inexplicably thought of the fact that the disciples of the Qingxuan Sect had sent a message to the sect from Wanli near Cuiyu Lake.

At that time, he was just a Qi-training monk and didn't know much about foundation-building methods. He thought that it might not be as difficult for foundation-building monks as they thought.

But now, after he has perfected a second-level communication spell, he truly understands the difficulty of Wanli Communication.

Meng Zhou used the moon mirror to check the condition of the Qianmu Spiritual Field. Well, it was raining again.

Ever since Chairman Pan promised to take over the rainfall work in his spiritual field, Meng Zhou has not been to the spiritual field again.

However, this does not mean that he really doesn't care.

Every now and then, he would observe the growth of all the spiritual plants in the spiritual field through the moon mirror to confirm that they were well taken care of.

During this inspection, Meng Zhou discovered something unusual.

In his spiritual field, the earth energy also showed signs of rising.

"……grass!"

It would be dark humor if the production of one's own spiritual field was reduced due to the rising earth energy.

Meng Zhou no longer dared to stay in the courtyard, and immediately stepped out of the courtyard and entered the spiritual field.

When the two foundation-building monks who were pouring rain on the water saw him, their eyes looked inquiring. Meng Zhou briefly introduced his purpose and said, "Don't worry about me, let's do our own thing."

Meng Zhou was about to use the art of dispelling filth, but his heart moved and he first sent a flying message to Governor Li.

Sorting out the earth's energy in one's own spiritual field is considered a task.

There is no reason for others to take credit for doing this to other village landowners, and it is natural for them to do this in their own spiritual field.

Not long after Meng Zhou was busy in the fields, Governor Li flew over.

Taking advantage of Meng Zhou's recovery, he apologized and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhuang, I'm really sorry. I was negligent in this matter."

Meng Zhou waved his hand and said: "Fortunately, it was discovered in time and no damage was caused."

After sorting out the earth energy of his spiritual field as quickly as possible, Meng Zhou and Governor Li flew away to another village.

…

February eighteenth.

Governor Meng Zhou and Li flew into the air.

At this moment, Meng Zhou had just finished sorting out the local atmosphere of one farmland, and at this moment, he was going to another farmland under the guidance of Governor Li.

Meng Zhou said, "Have you never been to this place before?"

Starting from February, the tasks assigned to him by Governor Li were basically familiar faces that he had served before. He went to Kan Yue three times.

At this time, I saw that I was going to a new place, so I had this question.

Governor Li nodded and said: "This is a new Taoist friend who came here this year. The 800 acres of spiritual land are all newly opened."

Meng Zhou nodded, but he was a little surprised and said: "New this year? You have opened up 800 acres of spiritual land and planted it? This speed is fast enough!"

Governor Li nodded and said: "Yes, but it is precisely for this reason that the earth's energy rises frequently, and his spiritual seedling has just broken through the ground, so he needs to pay special attention to it."

Meng Zhou nodded, and soon, the two of them arrived above the farmland.

A man with a kind face, a slightly rich figure, and a smile that looked like an outsider came up to him with a smile.

He cupped his hands at Governor Li and Meng Zhou from a distance and said, "Governor Li, this must be Mr. Zhuang, right? Excuse me!"

Meng Zhou also had a smile on his face and returned the favor, "It's easy to talk about."

Then, he went straight to the spiritual field below and began to sort out the rising earth energy.

But his expression turned extremely serious with his back to Governor Li and the wealthy official.

However, there was nothing unusual about the movements of his hands, and even the change in his expression was fleeting, and he quickly restrained himself.

It didn't take long for Meng Zhou to sort out the earthly energy of these eight hundred acres of spiritual land.

The rich and handsome man in his forties or fifties once again gave the two of them a gift and sent them away.

Meng Zhou returned the favor with a normal expression.

After saying goodbye and completing this operation, Meng Zhou and Governor Li hurried back together, chatting casually along the way.

It wasn't until he walked a long distance that Meng Zhoucai asked, as if something suddenly sounded, "Fellow Daoist Li, what do you call that fellow Taoist just now?"

"You mean Fellow Daoist Hu? His name is Hu Gui."
