After the patrol team left, Zhao Lin also came to the position where Shilong and Tian Butong were fighting, wanting to find a trace in it.

But helplessly, with his current cultivation, he can't find any results.

Because Tian Butong didn't even shed a drop of blood when he died, Shi Long didn't leave any evidence.

Therefore, even if Zhao Lin knew that Tian Butong had been killed, he didn't know how he was killed or who killed him, which gave him a headache.

"It seems that this Shi Long is indeed not simple, if there is a master in the secret to protect him, it is easy to say, but if it is Shi Long who kills Tian Butong directly, then this person is quite terrifying. ”

Although Zhao Lin didn't believe that Shi Long's current cultivation could kill a martial spirit realm master like Tian Butong, he still had some guesses in his heart.

But I still hope that the guess in his heart is wrong, Shi Long does not have such a strong combat power, this is the only opportunity for him to attack Shi Long, otherwise he will not have a chance to attack Shi Long at all, let alone seek revenge on Shi Long.

Shi Long returned to his residence, cleaned the dirt on his body, changed into clean clothes, and sat down next to his room to begin to absorb the cold ice beads to cultivate.

In the past half a month, in addition to refining his physical body in the practice room, Shi Long has also been constantly absorbing cold ice grass to cultivate.

And those cold ice grasses were all absorbed by Shi Long within half a month, but his cultivation did not improve because of this, which made Shi Long a little helpless.

He had absorbed thousands of cold ice grasses in the past half a month, and if he had replaced it with an ordinary martial arts cultivator, such a huge resource would have already made a Martial Yuan Initial Stage Cultivation directly improve the level of the Martial Spirit Realm's Initial Stage Cultivation.

But for Shi Long, he didn't even improve a small realm, which shows how huge the energy he needs now.

"Damn, the cold ice beads have been absorbed by me again, and I haven't improved my cultivation yet, such a huge amount of energy has exceeded the energy I need by 10 times, it seems that I can only continue to absorb and cultivate with the cold ice crystal stone. ”

After absorbing all the cold ice beads, Shi Long found that the energy he had absorbed had exceeded 10 times the strength of the previous Martial Spirit Realm's early stage to mid-stage promotion.

However, he has not yet been promoted from the middle stage of the Martial Spirit Realm to the late stage of the Martial Spirit Realm, so it can be seen that the energy he needs this time is not just as simple as 10 times the energy, it is already far more than 10 times the energy, but his dantian has only just been filled, and it has not yet reached the level of breakthrough.

According to Shi Long's plan, if he needs energy every time he improves his cultivation, and he needs 10 times the energy to improve the cultivation of a small realm than the last time he improves his cultivation, Shi Long can directly improve from the middle stage of the Martial Spirit Realm to the late stage of the Martial Spirit Realm by absorbing all the cold ice beads this time.

But the result was beyond his expectations, and he had no choice but to pick up the ice crystal stone again and start absorbing and cultivating.

"Master, Elder Chen Lei asks to see you. ”

Just when Shi Long wanted to continue absorbing the cold ice crystal stone and start cultivating, Liu Yang's voice sounded outside the door.

"What is the old boy doing when he sees me?"

Shi Long stopped his action to continue absorbing the ice crystal stone, and then said towards the door, "Let him in." ”

Although Chen Lei is now Shi Long's slave, he can't know all the thoughts in his servant's heart, he can only sense through the depths of his soul whether the other party has betrayed him and all kinds of thoughts that are unfavorable to him.

For other things, it is actually the same as usual, there will be no difference, the only difference is that these people who have been planted with soul seeds by Shi Long must listen to his orders in the future.

"Subordinate Chen Lei, meet the master. ”

Chen Lei, who was originally a high-ranking elder of the outer gate, now has no arrogance as an elder of the outer gate, and when he saw Shi Long, he knelt down and bowed directly, looking like a real slave.

Because he knew very well that as long as he had any rebellion against Shi Long, he would be known, and he would not know how he died at that time, so he would never dare to betray Shi Long, the master.

"Say, Elder Chen Lei, what are you looking for me?"

Shi Long didn't talk nonsense with Chen Lei, he knew that Chen Lei must have something to do with him, otherwise he wouldn't take the initiative to find him.

"Back to the master, it's like this, the city lord of Fu Lin City sent me a message, asking all our disciples in Fu Lin Cheng in Tianxingmen to go back to participate in Fu Lin City's annual meeting, and at this time every year, our Fu Lin City disciples in various sects must go back to participate. ”

Chen Lei didn't talk nonsense, and directly reported the purpose of his coming to Shi Long this time.

"Okay, then you Fu Lincheng's disciples will be taken back by you. ”

The annual meetings of these small towns are similar to those family annual meetings, and they will get together to participate in some family competitions and the like during the Chinese New Year.

Those who rank high can be rewarded with some cultivation resources from their own family or the city, and a disciple like Chen Lei, who serves as an elder of the outer sect in a major sect, will generally get a large amount of cultivation resources every year.

Therefore, Chen Lei and his disciples will go back every year, and the development of a city is inseparable from their disciples who cultivate in the sect.

At the same time, for disciples like them, it is also a good way to get cultivation resources, so even Chen Lei will not miss such cultivation resources.

With the permission of Shi Long, the owner, Chen Lei immediately thanked him and then retreated, and after Chen Lei left, Xingtian's figure appeared in Shi Long's room.

"Good boy, what's the situation? Why did that Chen Lei treat you so respectfully? What did you do to him?"

Xingtian knew very well that Chen Lei wanted to attack Shi Long before, but now Chen Lei was groveling to Shi Long, which made Xingtian a little puzzled.

"Master, this is the old boy who was beaten by me and surrendered to me, so now he is my subordinate, he said that Fu Lincheng's annual meeting will be coming soon, so he came over and asked me to go back. ”

Shi Long knew that sooner or later this matter would be discovered by his master Xingtian, so he didn't hide it, so he directly told him about his fight with Chen Lei.

Of course, it is impossible for him to say that he was in the depths of Chen Lei's soul and controlled him by a soul seed, he can only say that the other party's strength is not as good as his own, and he was afraid of being beaten by himself and finally surrendered to himself.

Xingtian naturally didn't believe Shi Long's statement, but he didn't ask too much about what kind of technique he used.

Controlling Chen Lei, how to say this is already Shi Long's private secret, as long as Shi Long does not do something harmful to the sect in Tianxingmen, he will naturally not care.

There are also many gangs among the sects, if Shi Long can establish his own power among the sects, then it is also a good way to gain a foothold in the sects, so naturally he will not care about it.

"Apprentice, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, should you also go home?"

Xingtian actually didn't know where Shi Long was from, but he could be sure that he was definitely not from Xiling City.
