Lonely Immortal

Chapter 57: The lingering ghost

When Zhang Zhiwen opened his eyes again, he was still in the forest. He sat up from the ground, and next to him was the body of the old man who had been dead for a long time. He regained his energy a little, and then searched the old man's body.

After some searching, Zhang Zhiwen was a little disappointed. There was nothing particularly good about the old man. He couldn't find any Xian family skills. He only found some scraps of silver and a roll of parchment like a map.

Zhang Zhiwen opened the parchment, and it was really a map. However, the map covered a large area, with hundreds of countries marked on it. Most of them Zhang Zhiwen had never heard of, but he did find the Yuan Kingdom. Location, Yuan Guo appears very small on the entire map, almost inconspicuous. If you are not looking for it carefully, you will probably ignore it.

This map was somewhat useful, but other than that, the old man didn't have much else. Zhang Zhiwen couldn't find any more useful clues from his body, such as why he suddenly felt that he was being targeted by something, and why the old man said After his death, Zhang Zhiwen will be in big trouble, and why the old man chose this time to take action, etc. There is no way to answer these questions.

Zhang Zhiwen picked up the map and looked at it again. This time, he wanted to see where the Feixian City closest to Yuan Kingdom was. But suddenly, a bright spot appeared on the map. This bright spot appeared very suddenly. Zhang Zhiwen It is certain that he has not discovered this bright spot just now, and the location of this bright spot is in the Kingdom of Jin, which is about five or six thousand miles away from him.

What does this highlight mean? Zhang Zhiwen didn't know clearly, but he vaguely felt the same as when he was stared at by something. It seemed that the bright spot appeared for him, but the bright spot didn't seem to have changed much, and it stayed in the Kingdom of Jin.

Zhang Zhiwen looked at it for a while and saw nothing, so he didn't pay much attention. He put away the map and planned to find a place to cultivate the Solitary Immortal Grass. As long as two more Solitary Immortal Fruits were produced, he could successfully break through to the refinement level. Qi level three.

In this way, he left here and went back to the place where he had hidden the medicinal materials.

After everything was ready, Zhang Zhiwen subconsciously took out the map again. After opening it, he was a little surprised because the bright spot on the map actually moved, and suddenly changed from the location of the Jin Kingdom to the location of the Ling Kingdom. How big is this? effort? He actually moved hundreds of miles at once? This speed is simply incredible. If this bright spot is an immortal cultivator, then this person's cultivation level must be at least the fourth level of Qi Refining!

With this kind of cultivation, Zhang Zhiwen asked himself that he was no match for him. Even if he had improved his cultivation to the third level of Qi Refining, he would still be no match for him. However, Zhang Zhiwen was not sure whether this bright spot was an immortal cultivator.

But regardless of whether the other party is an immortal cultivator or not, this thing is obviously aimed at him, Zhang Zhiwen, because the direction in which this thing is moving is the Yuan Kingdom where Zhang Zhiwen is currently located.

Judging from the speed of movement, it will take less than three days for this bright spot to arrive here. After three days, no matter what the bright spot is, it will definitely pose a huge threat to Zhang Zhiwen. This feeling is very special to Zhang Zhiwen. It is clear that he must find a way to deal with this upcoming crisis as soon as possible, otherwise he will not know how he will die by then.

Zhang Zhiwen thought for a while and looked at the map again. He was now basically sure of two points. First, even if he threw away the map now, it would not help. Otherwise, the old man would not be able to say that he would get into big trouble. Just throw away the map. What kind of trouble is that solved? Besides, if you throw away the map, you won’t be able to catch up with this bright spot. Then wouldn’t the old man have thrown it away long ago? So throwing away the map is useless. Secondly, no matter what the bright spot is, it is definitely a threat to him anyway, and it is even the fundamental reason that forces the old man to lurk in the Chamber of Commerce. To get rid of the bright spot, he must give up his body. Isn’t the old man just taking someone else’s body? Can he use his physical body to get rid of the other party's pursuit? Zhang Zhiwen couldn't get rid of his physical body, and he didn't know how to seize it.

So although things are dangerous now, they are also very clear. He seems to have no way to get rid of the pursuit of this bright spot. First of all, he must improve his cultivation as soon as possible. Even a little improvement will be of great benefit to him in getting rid of the crisis. Secondly, he He must find a place to hide, but this bright spot has obviously tracked him, so where can he hide? Hiding in Wuping County? What's the difference between that and courting death?

Zhang Zhiwen also felt a headache for a while. The most important thing was that he didn't know why this bright spot wanted to chase him. He couldn't kill more than just his head, so he had to kill someone, right? It's a pity that this is just a map, and it is the result of Zhang Zhiwen's careful deliberation. If ordinary people are confused, they probably don't know how to die.

But he had to kill the old man, otherwise letting the old man stay in the immortal mansion would make people feel as disgusting as swallowing a fly, so he had almost no choice, and now he only had two things to consider. , the first one is where to hide, and the second one is whether he should cultivate the Solitary Immortal Fruit immediately and then improve his cultivation level immediately.

Where could he possibly hide?

Zhang Zhiwen thought about it, and suddenly, he thought of a place, which is Feixian City, which is the closest to here. As long as he steps into the boundaries of Feixian City, ordinary cultivators will not dare to kill people in private, at least the casual cultivators in Feixian City Will the Alliance intervene, otherwise Feixian City will become a place of chaos?

However, Feixian City is more than a thousand miles away from here. Even if Zhang Zhiwen travels day and night, it will probably take nearly ten days. After all, the road is full of mountains and wilderness, and he has to cross the blood ridge and tread through the swamp. There are many dangerous places, and it is not a smooth road with cars and horses. It is just like when he was collecting herbs outside before. He looked at the mountains and ran to death. It seemed that a hundred miles was not far, but he could actually cross the mountains and ridges. It was already quite amazing to walk thirty or forty miles a day. Even so, it was because he was strong and practiced the Changsheng Sutra, and his strength was much greater than that of ordinary people.

But this bright spot is not vegetarian. At this speed, Zhang Zhiwen might be caught up by someone before he arrived at Feixian City. Wouldn't that be the same dead end?

Obviously, this method is not feasible. Zhang Zhiwen can only choose another method, that is, to improve his cultivation first, and then fight. Maybe he can escape to Feixian City. As long as he arrives in Feixian City, the other party will not dare to do anything to him. At that time, he can see what is so lingering.

Of course, cultivating the Solitary Immortal Fruit does not take too much time, but refining the elixir takes a lot of time, which is also unavoidable. When the cultivation level is improved, maybe the travel time can be shortened by half, and there may be a chance to escape.

Zhang Zhiwen made a decision and started to work immediately. He crushed all the treasures with spiritual energy he collected and melted them into the soil of the Immortal Mansion. The Solitary Immortal Grass began to grow as expected, but Zhang Zhiwen did not plan to continue to plant more Solitary Immortal Grass. On the one hand, he had no time at the moment. On the other hand, if it failed, it would be a loss of seeds. After all, according to the records in the book, it is impossible to plant more Solitary Immortal Grass within a hundred acres. If it succeeds, it will occupy more spiritual energy at that time, and it may not be possible to produce two Solitary Immortal Fruits.

After weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Zhiwen concentrated on cultivating a solitary fairy grass. This solitary fairy grass had already produced flower buds. Now that it was injected with spiritual power, it immediately grew rapidly. After a short while, it produced a solitary fairy fruit. Zhang Zhiwen picked the solitary fairy fruit and continued to wait...

Not long after, the second solitary fairy fruit matured, and Zhang Zhiwen felt more at ease. Normally, one solitary fairy fruit can refine three spiritual energy powders. If the efficiency is a little higher, it may be possible to refine four or even five. However, Zhang Zhiwen did not have high expectations. If he could have three, it would be enough. Then two solitary fairy fruits could refine six spiritual energy powders, plus the one spiritual energy powder he had left, a total of seven.

He felt that seven spiritual energy powders should be able to raise his cultivation to the third level of Qi Refining, but he was not sure about this. His spiritual roots were too poor. Pure mixed spiritual roots were not much different from fetching water in a large bamboo basket. He could only do his best.

If his cultivation level didn't break through to the third stage of Qi Refining, then he would have to fight hard. It would be better than just being at the second stage of Qi Refining now, right?

So, Zhang Zhiwen began to concentrate on refining pills. Since he had refined Lingqi powder before, he was not so unfamiliar with it this time. After a lot of effort, he refined a furnace of pills. It seemed that he was lucky and had a good start. Then, he continued to refine Lingqi powder.

One day later, Zhang Zhiwen got four Lingqi powders, and he also consumed a lonely fairy fruit. Zhang Zhiwen was very satisfied with the effect, so he continued to refine.

Another day later, Zhang Zhiwen got three Lingqi powders again. This time was the same as the last time. He was not very successful, but at least there was no loss, and Zhang Zhiwen was quite satisfied.

Now, he has eight Lingqi powders in his hand. He thinks he should have the hope of breaking through to the third stage of Qi Refining. If he hasn't broken through yet, he is at least very close. It's impossible that eight Lingqi powders have no effect after eating them. That's really unreasonable.

Soon, he swallowed the first spiritual energy powder. The spiritual energy powder entered his body and instantly turned into surging spiritual power. Zhang Zhiwen quickly collected his mind and began to absorb the power of the medicine as much as possible.

Time passed little by little. When Zhang Zhiwen recovered from meditation, he was happy because this spiritual energy powder actually improved his minor cultivation by one-fifth. The so-called minor cultivation is the process from the second stage to the third stage of Qi Refining. That means he only needs about five spiritual energy powders to break through to the third stage of Qi Refining.

However, Zhang Zhiwen was not in a hurry. He had already consumed more than two days. He opened the map again. The bright spot on the map was actually shortened by nearly two thousand miles, and now it was only four thousand miles away from Zhang Zhiwen. At this distance, the other party only needed two more days to reach.

This speed was quite impressive, about a hundred miles in one hour. Zhang Zhiwen asked himself if he could move that fast, unless he took pills to replenish his spiritual power at all costs. But even so, it would be difficult for him to move so fast continuously.
