I studied abroad in modern times

Master Chengkong is a very professional, or at least very attentive, salesperson... well, lobbyist.

Since he brought out the Quiet Bamboo to seduce Zheng Fa, he naturally introduced the spiritual roots of heaven and earth in great detail.

And Zheng Fa was indeed very interested, whether it was for the Jiu Shan Realm or the hibiscus tree in his belly.

"The difference between the so-called spiritual roots of heaven and earth and ordinary spiritual plants is..." Seeing that Zheng Fa listened attentively, Master Chengkong became more interested in talking, "If there is such a spiritual root in a cave world, it can penetrate world."

Zheng Fa heard this and asked: "The Master is saying that the immortals and mortals in the Nine Mountains Realm cannot communicate with each other because they lack the spiritual roots of heaven and earth?"

"Exactly. In fact, there are other ways to penetrate the immortal world. For example, when your cultivation level is high in the future, you can break through the barriers between heaven and earth only by relying on your own magical power and not relying on the spiritual roots of heaven and earth."

Having said this, Master Chengkong chuckled:

"For example, you, the original owner of the Heavenly Monument Realm, may be like this."

"But these methods require extremely high levels of cultivation. I am no better than the Supreme Taoist..."

At this point, he seemed to feel that he had made a mistake and stopped.

Zheng Fa seemed to have not heard these words and only thought in his heart. The Taishang Dao was known for its long history and profound foundation among the five Xuanwei sects. He was not surprised that he had an understanding of the Shinto era.

Just listening to what Master Chengkong said, their research in this cave world has actually gone further than the previous Tianzun in the Nine Mountains Realm.

Sure enough... times are slowly progressing.

He asked Master Chengkong: "In addition to penetrating the immortal world, what other benefits does this spiritual root of heaven and earth have?"

Seeing him ask this question, Master Chengkong naturally felt that Zheng Fa was serious about this topic and he knew everything about it:

"If the cave world is fused with a spiritual root of heaven and earth, then as this spiritual root matures, it will naturally become more powerful, and even the powerful will no longer be able to invade easily."

"Compared to penetrating the immortal world, this is the greatest role of the spiritual roots of heaven and earth!"

"The stronger this spiritual root is, the more benefits it will bring to the Dongtian World, or in other words, it will make the Dongtian World more perfect. There are rumors that in the end, the Dongtian World will even become a real world..."

Master Chengkong's tone was a bit ethereal, as if he felt that these words sounded unreachable.

He pointed to the quiet bamboo again: "In addition, the spiritual roots of heaven and earth can also be regarded as a kind of natural spiritual treasure, with infinite power."

Zheng Fa looked towards the quiet bamboo and saw a few yellow pointed leaves. He couldn't help but asked curiously:

"This spiritual bamboo..."

Master Chengkong sighed, but he did not hide anything: "If there is no problem with this pure bamboo, which makes it unable to be compatible with the cave world. I can't take it out of the Supreme Way. This time, I will naturally deal with the Great Freedom Demon Sect. , Secondly, we are also looking for a way to see if we can solve the problem of this quiet bamboo. "

"These two are actually the same thing. Although I am somewhat confident, the Great Freedom Demon Sect has endured for hundreds of thousands of years. Once born, without the help of this quiet bamboo..."

Zheng Fa looked at Master Chengkong in surprise. This man was quite candid.

Master Chengkong seemed to understand his surprise and said with a smile: "Since I invite you to join the Supreme Way, of course I must make it clear to you."

"Otherwise, if I am beaten into disgrace by the Great Freedom Demon Sect in the future, it will make you doubt my Taishangdao strength."

Zheng Fa asked further:

"I don't know, Master, how does it compare to ordinary gods?"

"Ordinary transformed gods? Oh, you're being transparent, right?"

?

You didn't bring Master Tongming here with you, just to trick him behind his back?

Master Chengkong unexpectedly answered the question: "You want to ask about the path after becoming a god?"

"……Um."

"Actually, it's hard for me to explain it clearly to you," Master Chengkong was extremely patient and explained: "After becoming a god, the path is no longer certain."

"..." Zheng Fa's eyes widened.

"Tai Shang Dao, all the major demon sects, and even... Tianhe Sect, all have different choices on this path. For example, the next realm of my Tai Shang Dao God Transformation is Yang Shen, but Tianhe Sect and others have different choices. The realm is called integration, and as for the Demon Sect, it is another path, taking the Dharmakaya lineage."

He spoke vaguely, and Zheng Fa was also confused, but he understood it clearly - this is probably the difference between different sects over the past several epochs.

Even the Tianhe Sect is actually different from the Taishang Dao?

Master Chengkong said again: "If Tongming has not entered my Supreme Way, he will naturally not be able to get the true teaching."

He only said that Master Tongming had not received the true transmission, and did not say how strong or weak he and Master Tongming were, but everyone could understand - he was probably far better than Master Tongming.

"But like me, in the Taishang Dao, I am just a true successor... My Taishang Dao background is far beyond the imagination of the world."

"Then..." Zheng Fa couldn't help but wonder, "Why doesn't Xuanwei have many Taishangdao disciples?"

"Because we are not in Xuanwei."

"...Dongtian World?" Zheng Fa suddenly realized.

Master Chengkong smiled and said: "I am the Supreme Taoist, but I have more than one spiritual root of heaven and earth."

"..."

Zheng Fa understood the subtext of Master Chengkong. They not only had the cave world, but also the spiritual roots of heaven and earth in addition to the quiet bamboo... If the world could grow with the spiritual roots of heaven and earth, after so many years, the place they live in Dongtian is probably much wider than the Nine Mountains Realm.

"Then this Xuanwei world? Is it also a cave world?"

Zheng Fa asked again.

"No, the characteristic of the Dongtian World is that the rules are special, or in other words, incomplete."

"Xuanwei Realm... is extremely special."

Zheng Fa looked at Master Chengkong in confusion and saw that Master Chengkong had his mouth closed, as if he didn't want to say a word.

Thinking of how he had just revealed everything, Zheng Fa understood that the Xuanwei world... was really special.

…

Master Chengkong changed the subject: "Don't listen to me saying that Taishangdao has other spiritual roots of heaven and earth, just because you think this thing is easy to find."

"Didn't I tell you that the spiritual roots of heaven and earth that I know of are only a dozen or so?"

"In the Xuanwei Realm... I am afraid that the spiritual roots of heaven and earth have not appeared in an era."

Zheng Fa also understood when he heard that Master Chengkong was saying that if you don't join the Supreme Way, it will be difficult to find the spiritual roots of heaven and earth.

"Even something as inferior as the Qingjing Bamboo is not something that the Transformation God can possess."

"Not to mention, the legendary building trees with the highest foundation, Huangzhongli, Fusang wood..."

Zheng Faru asked casually: "I seem to have heard of this hibiscus tree..."

"Fuso wood is extremely extraordinary. According to rumors, this spiritual root has the highest attribute of Yang, and it has the ability of vegetation to grow hair... It is also the first among all the spiritual roots of heaven and earth."

"My quiet bamboo will be nothing if it encounters hibiscus wood..."

"It is rumored that the Fuso tree was born a few epochs ago and was acquired by a person with great supernatural powers. That person relied on the Fuso tree to control all mysteries and was almost the strongest in the world..."

Master Chengkong sighed, he spoke highly of the hibiscus wood, but he actually felt a little disdainful of his own quiet bamboo.

Obviously he is very yearning for hibiscus wood.

Even speaking of enthusiasm, there are some flattering words.

Of course, it is not ruled out that he deliberately made the spiritual roots of heaven and earth more powerful in order to seduce Zheng Fa.

While the two were talking, Senior Sister Zhang arrived.

As soon as Master Chengkong saw Senior Sister Zhang, he stopped talking, turned to Zheng Fa and said, "You can think about it for a day."

Senior Sister Zhang watched him go away and asked Zheng Fa curiously: "Just now, were you talking about fuso wood?"

"Um?"

"He seems to praise hibiscus wood very much? How did you talk about this?"

Zheng Fa thought for a while and then said, "He likes to talk, and I like to listen."

"..."

Senior Sister Zhang knew that Zheng Fa had mastered the Fuso Wood. When she heard this, she looked at Zheng Fa with a strange look.

Junior brother, are you taking someone else's bragging as flattery?

…

"The hibiscus wood in my Dantian should be bound by spiritual power...it cannot be completely called the spiritual root of heaven and earth."

Zheng Fa thought about the process of growing hibiscus trees, and he was still very sober.

In his opinion, the hibiscus wood he was pregnant with should be the solidification of a spell - for example, the fruit of the hibiscus tree is a spell that can produce fusion.

Fuso wood at least has a magic that can produce the so-called Fuso spiritual dew.

But if you really have a spiritual root of heaven and earth...

The Yuanling Tao Body and the Yuan Magnetic Tao Body are not worthy of touching our own Qingyang Tao Body.

Zheng Fa has always been self-aware.

His Qingyang Dao Body was originally just a combination of the Five Thunder Body and Qingyang Qi - Qingyang Qi is naturally extraordinary, otherwise he would not be valued by the Nine Mountain Patriarch.

But if the Qingyang Dao Body can plant truly top-notch spiritual roots of heaven and earth, that would be called touching porcelain.

What makes him so calm is the fact:

If he really has hibiscus wood in his body, it should be like the quiet bamboo before. Once he enters the nine mountains, he can change the spiritual energy rules of the nine mountains world.

Not now.

Nature explains the problem.

Senior Sister Zhang nodded when she heard this: "From Master Chengkong's mouth, we can know that the spiritual roots of heaven and earth are not so good... If so, are you ready to enter the Supreme Way?"

Zheng Fa shook his head.

The relationship between the Five Xuanwei Sects and Lord Tianhe has always made him fearful.

As a last resort, Zheng Fa still wanted to stay away from these people.

What if my jade pendant turns into a monster?

"Then I, the Nine Mountains Realm, may have no chance to connect with the spiritual roots of heaven and earth..."

Senior Sister Zhang shook her head and sighed.

"That's not necessarily the case."

Zheng Fa thought about his modern research on spiritual plants.

He also thought about the similar structures in his cells after he cultivated the Qingyang Dao Body.

Suddenly I sighed:

I misunderstood the biology teacher!

He didn't lie to me. The future...is really the century of biology?

"You want to... plant a hibiscus tree?"

After hearing Zheng Fa's thoughts, Senior Sister Zhang couldn't help but widen her eyes and looked at Zheng Fa's head.

It seems that he is a bit suspicious that this junior brother is crazy.

"With this in mind, the most important question now is to see how the heaven and earth spiritual roots are different from ordinary spiritual plants."

Zheng Fa felt that he was already farming.

Wanting to plant a spiritual root of heaven and earth... is not too much, right?

When Senior Sister Zhang heard this, she looked at Zheng Fa with a confused look, which looked quite cute.

"Senior sister, you said I asked Master Chengkong for some dead branches and leaves, would he give them to me?"

Zheng Fa asked with twinkling eyes.

Senior Sister Zhang immediately understood what he was thinking, thought for a while and said: "The leaves growing on the Qingjing Bamboo... don't just turn yellow or fall off, they are still treasures."

Zheng Fa felt it made sense when he heard it, and temporarily suppressed the thought and said:

"Sister Zhang, why did you come to see me?"

Senior Sister Zhang patted her head and said, "It's Mrs. Xuanhua. She has made a magic weapon that can shield the electromagnetic interference caused by spiritual energy."

…

The seventh young master sat on the futon tremblingly, with his head lowered, thinking about a question - how can I dare to sit here?

When he came, he took a flying boat from the Qingmu Sect, and beside him were brothers and sisters with similar cultivation levels.

Unexpectedly, when I went back, I would be taken aboard Master Tongming's boat.

In the hall, apart from him, there were two avatars...

"Zheng Fa refused?"

The seventh young master quietly pricked up his ears.

"Rejection...it's better to say polite rejection." Master Chengkong chuckled, "I'm not in a hurry, now I'm still dealing with the Great Freedom Demon Cult..."

Master Tongming was silent for a while and then said:

"Sir, will you tolerate him?"

"He's not in a hurry for a single golden elixir. Why should I be anxious?" Master Chengkong laughed, "It's common for him to be a little proud and unwilling to be inferior to others, but he will know sooner or later that if he doesn't get along with me too The true teaching of the Tao comes to an end when it reaches the stage of becoming a god.”

"What's more, he will understand what I mean when I say that the Nine Mountains Realm is easy for others to take advantage of."

"..."

Master Tongming remained silent for a long time, as if he had been stabbed.

"Sir... why are you so patient with Zheng Fa?"

Master Tongming couldn't help but ask.

Over the past few days, he had long understood the character of Master Chengkong - he was an extremely arrogant and impatient person.

Previously, the monks from Baicao Sect wanted to help treat Qingjing Bamboo, but after a few days with no results, they were driven away by him.

This man has little patience for others trying to please him.

But Zheng Fa had a different look.

"...He is worth waiting for me." Master Chengkong raised the corner of his mouth and said.

"Did you know that Venerable Tianhe once wanted to join a large sect but was unable to do so?"

"..." Master Tongming understood what Master Chengkong meant.

"That sect has been ridiculed for hundreds of thousands of years..."

Master Tongming understood - Master Chengkong was so patient, probably because Master Tianhe... had been here.

The seventh young master also understood that he had such special treatment probably because of Zheng Fa.

Even...this envoy from the Supreme Way actually intends to recruit Zheng Fa into the Supreme Way?

Zheng Fa still refused?

What's even more frightening is that the envoy did not give up...

He also regarded Zheng Fa as Lord Tianhe.

Mom...my son finally understands what you mean when you say I am lucky!

He smiled stupidly for a while, and suddenly there was a trace of sadness in his heart.

Gao Yuan had written to him before, but had never written to Zheng Fa.

He once asked about this, and Gao Yuan only replied with three words - inappropriate.

He thought he understood this at the time:

It's inappropriate because they come from the same background, but the distance between the two is getting farther and farther, and their experiences are even more different. In fact, they can't talk to each other.

It's also because of...the self-esteem in my heart and the fear of the relationship deteriorating.

Now, he understands better.

When Zheng Fa becomes more and more powerful, I'm afraid he will be like Gao Yuan in the future. Even writing a letter will feel like a kind of flattery...

He wanted to laugh a little and cry a little.

…

"In fact, if Zheng Fa is really like Lord Tianhe, then those waiting for him will no longer be patient..." Master Chengkong suddenly spoke again.

"Why can't I understand what the envoy said?"

Master Tongming was even more puzzled.

"Just think about it, who is willing to give birth to another Lord Tianhe?"

Master Chengkong shook his head and asked.

"..." Thinking of Venerable Tianhe's deeds of flattening the world, Master Tongming also understood.

"If he is really like Venerable Tianhe, someone who comes to the door with a sword even if they don't agree with each other, then he will have a headache."

He suddenly understood what Master Chengkong meant:

Zheng Fa'an is hiding and cultivating, and Master Chengkong doesn't want to force him...

Otherwise, if Lord Tianhe is really forced out, the Hundred Immortals Alliance might be the first to fall out with Zheng Fa.

Then there is no need to deal with the Great Freedom Demon Sect...you can even laugh them to death.

Master Chengkong glanced at Master Tongming who consciously understood what he meant, and also smiled, as if there were some things he didn't want to say.

If another Venerable Tianhe appears, the Demon Sect will not stand idly by...

"This Zheng Fa is indeed a bit timid..." Master Tongming said with a smile on his face, "In other words, he is a true cultivator who is dedicated to cultivation and does not care about other things."

"That's fine. Since he only wants to practice, he will always ask me for help in the future." Master Chengkong also nodded, "But there is one thing that is a bit strange."

"What?"

Master Chengkong did not answer his words, but turned his head and looked at the seventh young master.

"Let me ask you, what is the relationship between Zheng Fa and Chen Jun?"

"Chen Jun?"

Master Tongming was puzzled. He thought for a while and said with certainty: "I also know his whereabouts after entering the school. He has never been to Chen County."

Master Chengkong nodded slightly: "That's true, but when Zheng Fa said goodbye to me, he actually asked me to collect some information about Chen County."

"Especially, he is interested in the strength and evil deeds of the Great Freedom Demon Cult."

"There is actually some intention of taking action personally."

"..." Master Tongming frowned, "Although this Zheng Fa has never suffered a loss at the hands of the Great Freedom Demon Cult, he has always avoided the Great Freedom Demon Cult whenever possible. With his ability to avoid getting involved in anything, How could his temper be like this?"

The Seventh Young Master said, "Jun Chen... we have a friend who died at the hands of the Great Freedom Demon Cult."

The two masters were stunned, turned their heads, and stared at the seventh young master.

Master Tongming thought for a while:

"woman?"

"Male."

"Are you kind to Zheng Fa?"

"Probably not."

"Is that Zheng Fa's relative?"

"...It's a friend. The one the envoy asked me about before is Plateau."

Master Chengkong paused for a while and then said, "Tell me in detail about the relationship between the plateau and Zheng Fa."

…

After listening to the Seventh Young Master, Master Chengkong and Master Tongming were silent.

After a while, Master Tongming said, "I'm going to Chenjun to take a look."

"..."

Master Chengkong looked at him.

"It's worth making friends with Zheng Fa."

"I'll go too."

"Messenger?" Master Tongming said in surprise.

Master Chengkong chuckled and said, "It's good to have such a junior brother."

The Seventh Young Master lowered his head again and grinned.

He didn't know what kind of cultivation level the one who harmed Gaoyuan was...

But the blessing of being served by two great gods of transformation is something that ordinary people can't afford.

Even from what Master Chengkong said, Zheng Fa still wanted to find an opportunity to take action.

That's three gods of transformation...

That person must have accumulated great virtue in his previous life!

Thinking of this, the Seventh Young Master pursed his lips and wanted to laugh.

...

Zheng Fa sent off the Hundred Immortals League and followed Sister Zhang to the University Island.

On the university island, there is another courtyard, which is officially used by Madam Xuanhua to make those experimental instruments.

The first step in making instruments is naturally to make a magic weapon with shielding function - otherwise everything after that will be out of the question.

Madam Xuanhua has already made this magic weapon.

There is a bracelet on the table, and the two shielding symbols are engraved on the bracelet.

"Is this it?"

Madam Xuanhua nodded, with a little pride on her face: "This thing is not difficult, but it is a bit troublesome to find available spiritual materials."

"Where did this spiritual material come from?"

Zheng Fa asked curiously.

"We have tried all the spiritual materials purchased from Xuanwei Realm and the market, and this one has the best effect." Senior Sister Zhang explained: "When you wear this bracelet, the spiritual energy within a half-foot radius will have almost no interference with the electromagnetic force."

"Almost?"

"After all, this bracelet is just a magic weapon, and its effect is limited. Xiao Fairy has tested that the thunder method below the Jindan level is basically ineffective. Above the Jindan level, it depends on the attainment of thunder method."

"What about the cost?"

"It is cheap, but it is not very useful."

Mrs. Xuanhua sighed and said: "This thing is only effective when you are experimenting, and it cannot be used as a defensive magic weapon."

"Huh?"

Zheng Fa looked at Mrs. Xuanhua and heard her explain:

"For example, Yuying, she stimulated thunder from a distance, and this thing could not defend against it."

Zheng Fa nodded. This thing is indeed like this. It can resist the interference of spiritual energy on electromagnetic force, but it has no effect on electromagnetic force itself.

To be honest, if this thing is useful for electromagnetic force...it will not be able to make the instrument Zheng Fa wants.

For example, electron microscopes, in theory, should shoot electrons towards the material being tested. It would be embarrassing if they were blocked by this bracelet.

"On the other hand, if you wear this bracelet, your magic weapon for defending against thunder will also be ineffective."

Zheng Fa also understood Mrs. Xuanhua's depression.

Those magic weapons were also made based on the control of electromagnetic force by spiritual energy.

This is equivalent to the antivirus software killing its own firewall...

"But if you modify this thing and use it on the instruments you mentioned, it should be useful."

Zheng Fa nodded gently, but looking at the bracelet, he thought of another thing in his heart...

"Madam, can you help me make something else?"

"What?"

"Just, a copper or iron, stretched into thin wires, and woven into something like a cage."

"..."

Madam Xuanhua looked at him for a long time, and suddenly said: "Isn't it a spiritual material?"

"No."

"Mortal things?"

"Yes."

"I am a Yuanying refining master, do you know how many spiritual stones I have to spend at a time? You want me to refine this mortal thing for you..." Madam Xuanhua asked with gritted teeth.

Zheng Fa was stunned for a moment, and he just remembered it by slapping his forehead.

He didn't expect to hurt Madam Xuanhua's self-esteem.

After thinking about it, he found a few disciples who could refine weapons in the Jindan Project.

What Zheng Fa said was indeed not difficult. Soon, a silver sphere made of metal wire appeared in front of everyone.

The sphere stood on the ground and had a door that could be opened and closed.

Zheng Fa thought about it, put on the bracelet, walked into the sphere, and said to Xiao Yuying: "Xiao Fairy, try using thunder magic on me."

Xiao Yuying blinked, her eyes were full of doubts, but she still moved her fingers, and a blue sky thunder fell from the sky to Zheng Fa.

There were crackling electric sparks on the metal ball, which was extremely dazzling.

Xiao Fairy was a bit cruel...

But everyone present was a cultivator, and naturally everyone had extraordinary eyesight. They could see that although the lightning on those filaments was like flowing water, there was no thunder in the metal ball!

Zheng Fa sat inside and didn't even move his fingers!

Madam Xuanhua ran out of the cage, looked at Zheng Fa, and asked, "Did you use the secret method?"

"No."

"Hidden a magic weapon?"

"... Madam, don't you know how poor our Jiushan Sect is?"

"Then what is..."

Zheng Fa looked at the metal ball and laughed in his heart: This magic weapon is called a Faraday cage...

"Madam, do you think this thing, plus the bracelet, can be considered a defensive magic weapon?"

Madam Xuanhua was silent for a long time before she said, "Based on its cost, calling it a magic weapon is an insult to it..."

"It must be called a treasure!"
