Do not die

If it were another time, no matter how earnest and sincere Xuan Lin and others were, Meng Zhou would not take this matter too seriously.

——What does your Qingxuan Sect’s difficulties have to do with me, a small casual cultivator?

But now, Meng Zhou, who already wanted to have more contact with Qingxuan Sect, realized that this was a good opportunity.

By taking advantage of the opportunities created by Xuan Lin and others, he could achieve his goal in a more "mellow" way.

Thinking like this, facing Xuan Lin who looked expectant, Meng Zhou nodded lightly and said:

"Okay, I can bring out a batch of fake elixir puppets and first- and second-level quality elixir wine."

When Xuan Lin heard this, he was instantly shaken and quickly asked: "How many can there be specifically?"

Meng Zhou looked like he was thinking seriously, and he was also thinking about this matter in his mind.

Due to multiple transactions with the Jade Blood Army, Qiandao Lake, and Wucailing, the number of fake elixir puppets has gone from more than 2,000 at its peak to less than 1,800 today. To be more specific, That’s 1,783.

To him now, this is almost the same as waste.

Apart from occupying a large area of ​​spiritual gourd space for a long time, there is almost no need to retain it.

Taking this opportunity to clear them out can be regarded as turning waste into treasure. In this special period, they can exert their due value.

However, although these fake elixir puppets are numerous in number and are worth much more than first- and second-level elixir wines, they can only serve as assistants.

Because in Meng Zhou's plan, he can release all these spirit puppets in three or four times at most, and he will not take time to make more in the future. It is basically a one-time use.

Moreover, for most monks, the price and positioning of fake elixir puppets are still too high-end.

Except for those forces standing at the top of the Qingxuan Domain, other forces, even if they gather the strength of the entire group, they can exchange at most one or two as their backing.

In comparison, elixir wine has more comprehensive coverage, is more friendly to the people, and has a stronger ability to absorb military contributions.

No matter from Meng Zhou personally, or from the perspective of Deacon Hall Master Xuan Lin and others, this is more suitable for long-term, large-scale promotion.

In addition, Bai Zhi has been brewing for a whole year in order to familiarize and practice the abilities and skills of the spirit blender. The reserves are very sufficient and can supply the needs in a short time.

Initially, after getting started, Bai Zhi was able to brew 600 jars of first-level elixir wine and 500 jars of second-level elixir wine every day.

Meng Zhou coordinated through many channels to provide a sufficient supply of spiritual materials. As Bai Zhi's understanding of spiritual masters became more and more profound, he spent less and less time in this area every day, but the amount of spiritual medicine wine produced in a single day was Instead of decreasing, it is increasing, and the quality is getting better and better.

After a year of continuous accumulation, 360,000 jars of first-order elixir wine have been reserved, and 320,000 jars of second-order elixir wine have been reserved.

In fact, even if Xuan Lin and others did not take the initiative to visit this time, Meng Zhou had already planned to release these elixirs through the pharmacist branch in a planned way.

First of all, this massive amount of spiritual medicine wine means an even greater consumption of spiritual materials.

Even for him, this has reached a limit. This is the result that he can only achieve by mobilizing multiple forces such as the Sanchuan Society, the Blue Blood Army, and the Pharmacist Branch at the same time.

Secondly, this was also his original intention for agreeing to Gu Ruiming - to contribute in his own way to the struggle between cultivators and monsters.

At the beginning, his biggest concern was that doing so would easily attract the attention of Qingxuan Sect.

However, since that unexpected discovery, Meng Zhou's thoughts have undergone a 180-degree adjustment. In his original plan, he even used it as a stepping stone to knock on the higher-level door of Qingxuan Sect. Prepare.

Now, before his own plan has been implemented, Xuan Lin and others have already come to invite him, which can be regarded as giving him pillows when he feels sleepy.

At this moment, facing Xuan Lin's eager inquiry, Meng Zhou thought for a while and said:

"There are about 500 fake elixir puppets. For elixir wine, there are 100,000 altars for the first level and 80,000 altars for the second level."

"Ah, so many?" When Xuan Lin heard this, his eyes widened in astonishment.

Meng Zhou: "Is it too much? Then... make less?"

Xuan Lin immediately waved his hands and said: "No, no, no... This is good, this is good!"

As he said that, he seemed to be afraid that Meng Zhou would change his mind, so he immediately started a detailed discussion.

Xuan Lin said that when these two exchange resources are placed in the exchange list of the Professionals Association, he can make the decision and add them directly to the exchange list of Qingxuan Sect.

In this way, they can be seen by the most people in the shortest time.

With the efforts of Qingxuanzong, "military contribution" can not only be directly exchanged for various resources with Qingxuanzong, but can also be exchanged for special resources with many non-Qingxuanzong forces, including the Professional Association.

The group of forces that can stand at the forefront of Qingxuan Domain at this time, although they are just younger brothers in front of Qingxuan Sect, they also have many unique resources.

These are things that most monks cannot ask for in ordinary times, but now they can be obtained through "military contribution".

But there is no doubt that Qingxuanzong's exchange list is the one that attracts the most attention.

Although there is no need to worry about selling good goods, if there is an opportunity to open a store in the downtown area, who would refuse it?

But Meng Zhou thought of the many helpers along the way, including the Blue Blood Army and the Sanchuan Society, and hoped to give them some extra preferential treatment.

In this way, the two held a series of consultations on some specific issues.

After the negotiation was completed, Meng Zhou immediately hung the first batch of fake elixir puppets and elixir wine on the "shelf".

After handling all this, Meng Zhou's true body returned to Aurora Cave, leaving only the Bingxin Blood Lotus clone to observe the subsequent changes.

According to the feedback from the Ice Heart Blood Lotus avatar, these two items have just been launched and have received widespread attention.

In a very short period of time, all five hundred fake elixir puppets were snatched up by various forces.

The inventory of first- and second-level quality elixirs is also decreasing at an extremely fast rate.

When the last elixir wine disappeared from the "shelf", Meng Zhou was most concerned about the fact that almost all of them, whether they were fake elixir puppets or first- and second-level elixir wines, were surrounded by powerful forces from all sides.

By the time those small and medium-sized forces lined up to come forward, they had all been exchanged.

At this moment, Xuan Lin has personally sent him a message, hoping to obtain a new batch of fake elixir puppets and elixir wine.

After receiving the summons, the Ice Heart Blood Lotus clone did not immediately respond to its request. It was not until April of the following year that Meng Zhou put the second batch of fake elixir puppets and elixir wine on the exchange shelves.

Some patches have been made, and some regulations have been made on the upper limit that each force can exchange, so that it can benefit more monks.

When the time came to August of this year.

Meng Zhou has hung the third and final batch of fake elixir puppets and first- and second-level elixir wine on the exchange shelves.

Even if it has been three times in a row, when these items are put on the exchange shelves, they will still be competed by all power groups. There is no such thing as saturation.

Meng Zhou also made a lot of military contributions. Within the Qingxuan Sect, the deacon hall that directly connected with him, from the deacon hall leader Xuan Lin to the specific monks in charge, it can be clearly seen that their attitude towards "Ge Yaoshi" Variety.

By the end, respect and gratitude were clearly written on his face.

From a certain perspective, he made a huge contribution to stabilizing the value of military contributions, which actually stabilized the credibility of Qingxuan Sect and the order and stability of the entire practice world in Qingxuan Domain.

It would not be a good thing if this happened to other alchemy cultivators.

In the ordinary world, it is not uncommon for kindness to turn into hatred, let alone the spiritual world.

Once the fog is removed, the essence of the spiritual world has never changed.

Only with enough strength can you get matching treatment.

What's more, as he made more and more military contributions and gradually accumulated a terrifying amount, this gradually became a new burden, even a "cancer" for Qingxuanzong.

Meng Zhou did not believe that there was no "smart person" in Qingxuan Sect who could not think of the safest solution.

Meng Zhou saw very clearly the huge hidden dangers hidden behind this calmness, but he turned a blind eye to it all and practiced calmly.

The fifth day of August.

Sixty-eight-year-old Meng Zhou ended this retreat. Even though he had completed the accumulation of the fifth level of pill formation in this retreat and broke through to the sixth level of pill formation, his state of mind was still calm.

Not pretending to be indifferent, but real peace from the inside out.

Before this retreat, my cultivation level was "9960/10,000 at the fifth level of alchemy".

But now, the cultivation level is already "sixth level of pill formation 145/10,000".

In addition, whether it is the third-level Spring Water Sutra for qi refining or the Black Turtle Bearing Tablet True Skill for body refining, I have gained 3300 experience points in this practice, and my accumulation at the master level has deepened.

"Grand Master of the Third Level Chun Shui Jing 102,300/240,000"

"Black Turtle Bearing Monument True Gong Master 90,600/240,000"

Everything developed as expected, and he could naturally remain calm.

On the contrary, in the middle of this month, Meng Zhou looked at a new skill full of question marks that appeared in the skill column. His calm mind couldn't help but feel ups and downs, and he felt sincere joy.

【? ? ? 】

The changes don't stop with the new skill itself.

With its successful birth, just like knocking down the first domino, changes came one after another.

The first thing to change was the Knot Master, which was upgraded from "Level 3 9500/10,000" to "Level 3 10,000/10,000", reaching the top in one step, reaching the limit of Level 3.

Then there is the "Transparent Tao Body", which has been improved from 75% completeness to 90%, an improvement of a full fifteen points.

This is the most complete time with one skill since the birth of Tongming Dao Body.

Because of this growth, the Transparent Dao Body also caught up with the Five Elements and All Forms Body, which had a completeness of 88%.

Looking at this new skill that was full of question marks, Meng Zhou thought about it for a long time before deciding on a name for it.

"Time editing...just call it time editing."

To be honest, with the current ability of this skill, it is somewhat unworthy of this name.

He can't really edit time either.

but……

What's the hindrance?

[Introduction to Time Editing 100/10,000]

After successfully understanding this skill, Meng Zhou spent two days getting familiar with its usage.

Then, he put Bai Zhi into the sea of ​​consciousness again, and the two mysterious turtles into the beast bag, and "cleared" the time information in Aurora Cave again.

After dealing with all this, Meng Zhou left the Aurora Cave again and went straight to Tianqi Mountain.

After leaving Tianqi Mountain, Meng Zhou immediately summoned the lightless spaceship and rushed to the vicinity of Jade Lake as quickly as possible.

…

Baijiang.

Meng Zhou, who used Five Elements Escape to perfectly integrate himself into the void, stood on the edge of the Baijiang River.

Looking at the specious scenery not far away, I felt a little nostalgic in my heart.

The "yes" part is that the riverside where he once practiced water walking still looks the same and has the same outline.

Jiangtan, where he once confronted "Master Mo" and killed the gang's second oldest brother with his own hands in front of everyone, has not changed much and is still the same as in his memory.

The "non" part is that the small courtyard where he lived when he first came here, the retreat place that was built by his former leader as the leader of the Baijiang Gang because of its first-order mid-grade spiritual quality, will no longer exist. No longer the same as in memory.

It turned into a Linjiang mansion with a wider area and a more magnificent palace.

Looking at this old scene, Meng Zhou felt nostalgic for a while, and then he started to get down to business.

Because she devoured a large amount of suitable spiritual materials in Tianqi Mountain, Yaya, who had grown to the third level of high quality, was transformed into a rope that was neither long nor short, neither thick nor thin.

[Rope Spirit Level 3 8600/10,000]

The moment he took the rope into his hands, his fingers seemed to have an external brain, naturally and flexibly controlling the movement of the rope at his fingertips.

Meng Zhou's eyes had already focused on the unrecognizable mansion.

As his thoughts changed, the light image that only he could see and belonged to this area quickly retreated.

It didn't take long for the strange mansion to disappear and be replaced by the familiar courtyard in the memory.

The time that was rapidly regressing did not stop there.

Until the time went back nearly twenty years ago.

"That's when—"

The rapidly rewinding image slowed down quickly, and a corpse with blood spurting from its mouth and nose sat cross-legged on the stone couch in the quiet room.

The next moment, the corpse suddenly opened its eyes and woke up, and then looked at everything around it with a look of surprise.

For Meng Zhou, this is his biggest "cover".

Although, this "cover door" will most likely not be exposed.

But as soon as he thought about the theoretical possibility of exposure, Meng Zhou's heart was always tense, and it was difficult to really calm down.

And now——

The time image that only he could see suddenly blurred and flickered for a moment, as if an extremely unstable signal had been received.

Then, a new video took its place.

In this new image, although the former master failed to practice the "Water Nourishment Technique", he did not die. Although he also suffered a lot of backlash, it was not life-threatening.

Since the previous owner of this body did not die, then naturally there is no such thing as his own soul passing through and replacing him.

Then, the images of me practicing alone in the small courtyard, mastering various skills from scratch, were all replaced by the images of my former master quietly recuperating in the small courtyard.

However, the image of himself interacting with other monks did not change at all.

Interestingly, the connection is still smooth and silky, without any sense of dissonance. (End of chapter)
