When refining the essence of decaying water, the spiritual consciousness must spread all the time, watching the changes in the water.

The same is true when refining pills, which need to be controlled and refined through spiritual consciousness to various spiritual objects such as Chinese medicinal materials in the Dan furnace in order to increase the success rate of becoming a pill.

After entering the inner door, Zhang Qingyuan's spiritual sense gradually grew and refined in this step-by-step actual exercise.

The growth and skillful use of spiritual sense made Zhang Qingyuan's perception more acute.

Not long after Zhang Qingyuan entered the Yin Wind Valley, he noticed that something was wrong with him right behind him.

Someone is following!

It's just that the person who is following is too secretive, and if it weren't for the changes in Zhang Qingyuan's spiritual sense during this time, he wouldn't have been able to detect even a clue.

There is no way to know where the other party is hiding.

In desperation, Zhang Qingyuan had to use himself as bait to reveal his flaws and lure the other party to attack.

And then

He did it.

Abruptly dodged, a backhand sword out of the sheath, and the sword drawing technique that gathered the sword intent and sword momentum instantly hit the two secret enemies hidden behind him.

"Damn! It's just a mere Lingyuan Eightfold, how can it be so strong!"

The two figures were slashed away by a sword, and the Lingyuan shields around them were shattered one after another, and even the magic weapons that were resisting in front of them were almost twisted and shattered.

One of them looked horrified, feeling the power that poured into his body like a mountain of sea, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

Along the way, Zhang Qingyuan has not shown too much strength.

After killing the leader of the White Bone Demon and performing the high-level martial arts of the three stacked waves of the sea, he also showed a weakened appearance of exhaustion.

is based on their judgment of Zhang Qingyuan's strength, which is not too high.

Any one of them would be able to kill this inner disciple of the Yunshui Sect.

In order to obtain more information more securely,

The two men eventually followed all the way to this inaccessible place, and together they struck together, preparing to capture each other.

But what they didn't expect was that the inner disciple of the Yunshui Sect, who they thought they could capture and kill at will, suddenly turned into a devouring beast in the blink of an eye!

"Run!"

The sword hit hard, and without the slightest hesitation, the monk who was less injured flew directly backwards.

Directly left behind the companion who had suffered most of the damage from the sword drawing technique, and at this time he was already a dying companion with a heavy injury.

"Damn, shit, shit!"

The fleeing man had a hideous face and quickly escaped into the distance.

The sword drawing technique that contained the sword intent and was extremely powerful had already shattered his liver and gallbladder, and he no longer had the courage to fight against it.

But how could Zhang Qingyuan let the other party go easily?

With a pinch of his fingers, it turned into a magic seal, and a faint spiritual yuan fluctuation vibrated out.

Artifact!

A ray of cold light flickered in mid-air, like lightning wandering between the void, and in an instant, a ripple disappeared.

It was as if he had escaped from the space and came towards the back of the head of the fleeing man!

Feeling the fierce warning of danger coming from behind him, the fleeing monk panicked and wanted to dodge to the side.

But at this time, Zhang Qingyuan's spiritual sense had increased and condensed, and the Imperial Technique had reached a higher level, and the lower-grade magic weapon Qi Breaking Needle instantly penetrated the opponent's head at a faster speed before the opponent could dodge.

As soon as the body of the fleeing big man froze, he fell directly to the ground.

His eyes widened in disbelief.

A little blush appeared on his forehead.

At the same time,

The other seriously injured enemy, who had a huge wound cut open in his abdomen and was almost cut off at the waist, looked at Zhang Qingyuan in horror, covering the wound and constantly retreating.

Zhang Qingyuan's face did not fluctuate in the slightest, his figure flashed, and instantly appeared behind the seriously injured enemy.

A palm was slapped out, and the sharp palm wind whistled.

Before the other party could make any sound, Zhang Qingyuan had already broken his neck.

Quickly searched the storage bags and other items on the two corpses, Zhang Qingyuan then hastily buried the corpses, and then pulled out the ghost grass together, and quickly left the valley.

Fortunately, before leaving, the fluctuations in the battle here did not attract any other monks or demons.

All that remained was a mess of the earth.

After walking away, Zhang Qingyuan found a relatively remote and safe place and began to count the harvest this time.

"Who the hell are those two?"

Recalling the two people who attacked him before, Zhang Qingyuan also had some doubts in his heart.

The strength of these two people is around the early stage of the Ninth Fold of the Spirit Yuan, and one of them is the peak of the early Ninth Fold, why would they be eyeing themselves, could it be that they are scattered cultivators who rely exclusively on looting for a living?

With all sorts of stealthy tracking skills, it seems to be so.

But Zhang Qingyuan instinctively felt that this was not like it.

Soon, Zhang Qingyuan searched the storage bags of the two and got a possible answer from them.

"Hanhai Sect ......"

Looking at the quaint token in front of him, with the word Hanhai engraved on it.

Zhang Qingyuan's complexion changed slightly.

Although Zhang Qingyuan rarely went out, he had not even left the territory of the sect for thousands of miles after crossing into this world.

However, as for the general situation in the surrounding cultivation realm, Zhang Qingyuan still understood it from the records of his predecessors in some books.

Hanhai Sect is located at the boundary of Haizhou adjacent to Yuzhou.

It is a big sect with the same level of power that radiates to a continent, and at the same time, there are a lot of frictions and conflicts with the Yunshui Sect, and the historical grievances have been around for a long time.

As early as hundreds of years ago, the Hanhai Sect and the Yunshui Sect had a decades-long war.

It was also in that great battle that the Water Sword Immortal of the Yunshui Sect became famous, and almost shocked the cultivation realm of the entire Yuzhou Sea Continent with his True Yuan Cave Split, becoming the pinnacle demon of the era.

"People from the Hanhai Sect, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Qingyuan vaguely felt that something was wrong.

The monks of the hostile sect appeared here, and they also carried a token to show their identity, which was impossible to come to the range of the Yunshui Sect to collect spiritual objects.

Moreover, there is something strange about the storage bags of these two.

There are very few spiritual resources inside, only a few unranked elixirs, a few unknown demon beast body materials, and some talismans and pills.

A few low-grade magic weapons are not suitable, and Zhang Qingyuan can't look down on them.

Both storage bags were empty inside.

There are a lot of spirit stones, a total of seven hundred spirit stones, among which there is an extremely precious medium-grade spirit stone.

Looking at the medium-grade spirit stones in the jade box that were crystal clear, and the surrounding aura almost lingered into mist, Zhang Qingyuan's face showed irrepressible joy.

The aura content of a medium-grade spirit stone is more than 100 times that of an ordinary spirit stone.

But because the aura is extremely rich, medium-grade spirit stones have a great effect in many places, such as arranging formations, and even cultivating breakthroughs, and it is simply a fantasy to exchange a hundred ordinary spirit stones for a medium-grade spirit stone.

"No matter what the Hanhai Sect has planned, with this medium-grade spirit stone, maybe I can hit the Lingyuan Ninefold Realm with this!"

Zhang Qingyuan's eyes flickered.
