In the guest courtyard, on the first floor of the small building where Zhao Lin is located, several people are scattered and sitting.

Zhang Weidong listened to the words of several people, then sighed and comforted a few people: "Let's mourn by the way, people can't be resurrected after death!"

Originally, Zhao Lin and several people returned, but Dong Jue was missing, and Zhang Weidong guessed that something was wrong.

Could it be that Hong Boran's people did it? Zhao Lin and the others shook their heads one after another and denied it.

After a while, Zhang Weidong knew the truth and could only sigh.

Speaking of which, this time it can only be regarded as Dong Yao's bad luck. Despite having the elixir, she still teamed up with Ning Xiuxiu and Ding Xue, and she still couldn't avoid the sudden attack of seven or eight demon general-level demon beasts.

When Chen Yu and Cao Ping, who were nearby, arrived, after killing a few demon beasts, Dong Jue could no longer be saved, and Ning Xiuxiu and Ding Xue were also injured and almost died.

If Zhang Weidong had been there at the time, maybe there would have been a way to save her. But a person's soul can't last long under the scorching sun, even if Dong Jue is a foundation building monk and his soul has transformed, it is difficult to exist for more than six hours in that environment. Obviously, Zhang Weidong is now going to the place of the incident, and it will be useless.

Chen Yu said in a deep voice: "Senior Brother Zhang is right, although the demon beast tide has retreated now, but the real battle has just begun, there are at least a thousand monks who die every day, and the heads of our people are tied around our waists, and our lives are in danger at any time, and we have already put life and death out of the way!"

"It's still uncomfortable to think about!" Cao Ping sighed. "Senior Sister Dong gets along well with us, such a good person suddenly died!"

"It's all my fault! If you're careful, maybe you'll be able to avoid the trap of the demon beast!" Ding Xue blamed himself.

"I'm also responsible!" Ning Xiuxiu also echoed her self-blame.

Zhang Weidong looked at Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin sighed slightly, and said helplessly: "Okay." There is no need to blame yourself, no one can predict what danger will be encountered tomorrow. It could happen to me, it could happen to you. Everyone can't predict the danger every day, so only by cultivating hard and working hard to improve their cultivation, the stronger the strength, the more demon beasts they can kill, which can be regarded as indirectly avenging Senior Sister Dong!"

yes, kill all the damn monsters!

Chen Yu and the others resonated, as if they instantly hated the demon beast beyond measure.

"If it's okay. Go back separately, heal your wounds, recover your true qi, and in half a month, I will go out of the city again!" Zhao Lin said again.

"Captain, I have to cultivate for three months, and I can't get out of the country for the time being!" Chen Yu hesitated and said. "I've been out for a month this time, and I feel a little bit of a feeling-"

Zhao Lin said: "It's okay, this is a good thing! The ultimate purpose of hunting demon beasts is to experience life and death and gain understanding. To improve one's cultivation, if you have a feeling, you should seize the time to retreat and break through, and you can go out once a month in the future, and there will be more opportunities! Half a month later. When the time comes, those who go out will gather, and those who are in retreat will not need to—"

Everyone nodded, a moment later. They went back to cultivating separately.

For a while, only Zhang Weidong and Zhao Lin were left here.

Zhao Lin looked at Zhang Weidong.

"Senior brother, why don't you continue the retreat?"

"It's over—"

"Oh, what's the catch?"

What does Zhao Lin think. They all noticed that Zhang Weidong's cultivation had not made a big breakthrough, and he just asked casually.

Zhang Weidong smiled. Nodding his head, he said, "Fortunately, this time the harvest is huge!"

"It's good to have a harvest, but you can't bury your head in penance in cultivation, the next time you go out to hunt demon beasts, junior brother and I will go out together!"

"Ha Luha, senior sister, that's what I mean!"

"That's good—"

"Then Senior Sister, I won't bother you with your cultivation, I'll see you in half a month?"

"See you in half a month!"

Zhang Weidong didn't delay any longer, and got up directly and walked out of the small building.

After two months of retreat, Zhang Weidong's cultivation was still the second layer of the foundation, and it didn't seem to have much of a breakthrough, and Zhao Lin didn't think much about it.

And Zhang Weidong is not so high-profile, so he didn't explain.

returned to a newly selected small building in the guest house, Zhang Weidong first called Zhang Fu and the big turtle out. However, he had no intention of retreating for half a month, thinking that he would continue to read some classics, especially the content about the alchemy of the Demon Pill.

The big turtle was refining the fifth demon pill, and as soon as it came out, it just stretched out its head to look around, and after seeing Zhang Weidong, it shrank in again and continued refining.

It is estimated that it will break through in less than half a month, which is worth looking forward to.

However, in this way, the use of the demon pill is urgent.

The big turtle needs not much demon pill to break through the second level of the demon general's lower level, but if you break through the third level or cultivation in the future, then you need more demon pills, and the demon pill that Zhang Weidong has at present is far from enough. Therefore, the matter of entering the demon pill and maximizing the use must be grasped.

As soon as Zhang Fu came out, he saw that Zhang Weidong was half-lying on the recliner, holding a scroll of classics in his hand, and immediately said with relief: "After the fifth floor of the foundation is built, the alchemy room and part of the medicine garden will be opened, and at that time, as long as the young master spends more time on it, alchemy will definitely advance by leaps and bounds——"

"Alchemy room, part of the medicine garden?" Zhang Weidong was stunned.

Zhang Fu didn't remind him, he was about to forget.

At that time, he thought that he could only open the alchemy room and that part of the medicine garden when he built the fifth layer of the foundation, and felt that it was very far away, but now, as soon as he arrived in this world, he encountered a once-in-a-lifetime tide of demon beasts in less than half a year, and with the blessing of the innate Dao fruit, it was easier to perceive and comprehend, so that the cultivation rushed straight to the fourth layer of the foundation like a rocket, and it seemed that the fifth layer of the foundation was really not far away.

Speaking of which, Zhang Weidong didn't have much expectations for the alchemy room itself, but he was very interested in the richer and more specialized alchemy classics inside.

Of course, he only read a very small part of the classics in the first study, and it seems that it is still a little early to use the alchemy room and read the precious classics in it. However, as long as he has the time and can absorb the valuable knowledge at any time, it will be much more convenient in the future.

If in the alchemy room, he is only interested in classics, then Zhang Weidong is even more interested in the opening of some medicine gardens.

Although only part of the medicine garden was opened, the tenfold acceleration of growth could allow him to obtain more medicinal herbs in a short period of time in the future. And. Listening to Zhang Fu, this medicine garden itself is no worse than the Linglong Valley, which is fused with the original stone of life. Most of the plant medicinal materials in the immortal cultivation world can be grown.

It's like carrying a mobile medicinal herb base.

"Fauber reminds me that this half month I plan to take a good look at the things in the first study. Growing Insight—"

"Then the old slave won't bother the young master—"

After Zhang Fu made a pot of 'Yuanwu Tea' for Zhang Weidong, he didn't know which volume of the book Lu Dao had taken, so he sat down on a Taishi chair not far from the big turtle.

Next, Zhao Lin and the five of them were cultivating without leaving home, and so was Zhang Weidong.

It wasn't until a few days later that Lin Qingyun came back.

Zhang Weidong put down the classics for the time being, went down, and met him. How to say. Lin Qingyun is also a reliable candidate to run errands for himself, and he should give a little care.

It seems that Lin Qingyun has gained a lot in the more than two months since he left, and his cultivation has actually reached the level of the late stage of the eighth layer of Qi cultivation, and his progress is extremely fast.

Lin Qingyun was a little excited, thanked Zhang Weidong, and talked about his menstruation in the past two months.

Although his experience can't be compared to that of the monks under the demon clouds, it can be regarded as extremely fulfilling.

After chatting for a while. Zhang Weidong sent him to retreat. Lin Qingyun took the initiative to run errands for Zhang Weidong, but Zhang Weidong had no arrangements for the time being, so he could continue to practice. When his cultivation has reached the great perfection of Qi cultivation, he will stay and do things for himself at that time.

Perhaps, this time is estimated to be a year or two away.

On the twelfth day. Zhang Weidong was pretending to sleep, and suddenly felt that the breath on the big turtle was unstable. Hurry to open your eyes.

"What's wrong with the turtle?"

"Young master, don't worry, the big turtle seems to be about to break through. It's on its own—" Zhang Fu also stopped reading and explained without panicking.

The promotion of demon beasts is actually the promotion of bloodlines.

This will last for a few days, or even a few years, depending on the level and whether the bloodline is strong.

With the bloodline of the golden-threaded turtle, this process can take several days. At the same time, as Zhang Fu said, the big turtle bloodline was promoted, Zhang Weidong couldn't help it for the time being, or rather, the one who should have helped had already helped, and that drop of his blood had already helped the big turtle a lot, so he began to break through so quickly.

Sure enough, the promotion of the big turtle was not a moment.

At the end of the first day, the breath became more and more unstable and more and more intense, and the demonic aura covered a radius of hundreds of meters, causing Zhao Lin and the others to come out one after another. After knowing that the Dao was about to break through, they returned to Xiaolou with confidence and continued to cultivate.

Zhang Weidong was not so calm, he basically protected the big turtle, and even threw aside the classics, so as not to be disturbed by outsiders.

Half a month later, on the small building, the breath of the big turtle became more and more intense, ups and downs, strong and weak, even more unstable, and the demonic qi could not be restrained, and spread to the small half of the courtyard, and some of the green beasts could not be peaceful, and they hissed all day long. For this reason, the uneasy Steward Qi also came here, and after understanding the situation, he dispersed those curious servants.

"Senior Zhang actually owns a pet beast!"

"It seems that the level of this pet beast is not low, look at how strong the demonic aura is, at least it is at the level of a demon general!"

"The aura of this pet beast is so unstable, is it a breakthrough in promotion-"

The servants were very gossipy, and the topic of the big turtle lasted for several days.

Even, the news spread outside.

Hong Boran knows the way, and Li Xiaotian knows the way!

However, fortunately, the annex was large enough, and the demonic aura emitted by the big turtle could not cover the entire annex, so that most of the people around did not know what was happening here.

At this time, outside the small building, by the small lake, only Zhao Lin was alone, and the rest of the people were still cultivating, it seemed that they didn't want to participate in the hunting of demon beasts this time.

Zhang Weidong noticed Zhao Lin's exit, but he only made a sound and did not go downstairs.

The promotion of the big turtle has reached the most critical time, and he must not be disturbed, and he deliberately did not accept the big turtle into the spirit mansion, so he had to let Zhao Lin wait a little longer and postpone it for a day or two before leaving the city.

However, things often don't go as planned.

Just when the promotion of the big turtle could not be interrupted, someone came to the guest house.

Steward Qi came in with a middle-aged man, and as soon as he arrived at Xiaolou, he shouted in a low voice: "Senior Zhang—"

Upstairs, Zhang Weidong was furious, and the voice passed like thunder: "Get out!"

When the middle-aged man heard this, he was immediately furious. He sensed that there was a monk on the second floor of the building. A demon beast that is being promoted to the second level of the demon general's lower level, but. He is also the second floor of the foundation, and he is also a senior among them. Don't be afraid at all.

"Presumptuous—"

"Within three breaths, if you don't get out of the room, you will all stay!"

Steward Qi was frightened when he heard this, and without saying a word, he threw down the person, turned around and rushed outside.

He was just a Qi cultivator, and he was forced to bring this person in just now. If you cost your life for it, it's not worth it. In the eyes of the foundation building monk, the life of a Qi cultivator is nothing. If he said that he would kill, he would kill, and he didn't want to die because of it.

Anyway, I brought you here, it's none of my business.

Steward Qi's action made the middle-aged man stunned and snorted coldly.

However, it was just a small Qi cultivator, and he was too lazy to care.

"What a big breath, I'll just stand here, don't say three breaths. It's thirty breaths—"

Swish!

Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, the third breath arrived, and a red sword shadow shot out from the lightning on the small building, firmly locking on him.

"How dare you—" Immediately. He was horrified, because the red sword shadow came too quickly, and it was in front of him in the blink of an eye. Can't hide.

However, there was nothing Zhang Weidong did not dare to do.

At the time of the Great Turtle Breakthrough. The only people who came to disturb him were the enemy.

Burst!

After the red. The middle-aged man was motionless, the consternation in his eyes did not dissipate, and in his chest, the lower grade yuan device shattered, and a large hole appeared, straight through the flesh.

He's dead!

The body falls, and the soul is annihilated in an instant!

Bang!

The body fell.

"Really killed?" This scene saw that the housekeeper Qi on the outside of the gate of the guest house was scattered, his legs were weak, and he almost peed his pants.

He had just left the guest house, but he didn't dare to go far, so he eavesdropped outside the door.

This middle-aged man was holding the hand token of a certain big man in the city lord's mansion, and he had to get from. But who would have thought that this senior would dare to kill even the people in the City Lord's Mansion?

"Hallucination, it must be an illusion! No, I have to go away, pretend not to know anything-" Steward Qi was frightened, and walked out cautiously with weak legs, for fear that the footsteps would be heavy, so that Zhang Weidong would hear it and kill someone.

Even the people from the city lord's mansion dare to kill, let alone him?

Fortunately, Zhang Weidong didn't kill him and let him go.

Besides, in the courtyard, Zhang Weidong killed someone in seconds, and in the next breath, he flicked a fireball out of the coffin, and soon burned the corpse to ashes, leaving only a storage bag, a lower grade yuan sword, and a broken lower grade yuan clothes on the ground.

grabbed these things back in the air, and Zhang Weidong took them for himself.

"Senior brother, why did you kill him without asking clearly?" Zhao Lin asked in a voice, blaming him a little for his recklessness.

She was at the lake, and naturally noticed the situation here. But Zhang Weidong moved too fast, and she couldn't stop it.

"Senior sister, it's the same whether you ask or not! The big turtle is advancing, and the one who comes to the door at this time is clearly here to provoke, and it is obviously the enemy!"

"But the identity of this person—"

"Hey, it's just some people's doglegs, kill it, kill it!"

"What do you mean by this junior brother?"

"Not necessarily, but it's not much worse, they are all from the City Lord's Mansion, and they should have come to trouble me!"

This courtyard was for Murong Long to entertain distinguished guests, and ordinary people didn't dare to come in without the consent of the temporary host. And the only one who can come in is the person with the identity of the City Lord's Mansion.

Besides, when a monk breaks through, he is most afraid of being disturbed.

This person knew that the big turtle was advancing, but he didn't know how to break in, and he didn't know how to shut up, so he was clearly not here to do a good thing. It's just that Zhang Weidong is an alternative, he has no reverence for the City Lord's Mansion at all, and he is not soft at all when it comes to killing.

Whether it was Hong Boran's people or the people of Murong Long's seventh disciples, they were all enemies.

"Senior brother, but no matter what, this is in Qingzhou City, and it is another courtyard, you killed a monk on the second floor of the City Lord's Mansion with this sword, this is not a small matter!"

"Senior sister don't have to worry about me, I'm in charge, no one can find me trouble on this!"

"What about the other party's forced come? Sometimes it doesn't make much sense, you are only the second layer of the foundation, and you have the strength to build the fourth layer of the foundation at most——"

"Ha Luha, who said that I only have the strength to build the fourth layer of the foundation? Senior sister thinks that my retreat has been wasted for two months?"

"Ah, junior brother, has it broken through? Tell me quickly, what's the good thing?"

"Don't hide it from Senior Sister, this time I was lucky, I broke through from the second layer of the foundation to the fourth layer of the foundation, if you talk about strength, the senior sister may not be able to defeat me!"

"Building the fourth layer of the foundation?!You, didn't you only break through two months ago, how, how is it possible? Why can't I see that your cultivation is the fourth layer of the foundation?"

Hearing this, Zhao Lin was extremely unconvinced.

Who can break through three floors in two months?

"It's not surprising, I'm wearing a mask, it can deceive the divine consciousness of the real people in the early stage of Jindan, and the second layer of the foundation is just a disguise, but, senior sister, you have to keep it secret for me for the time being!"

"Mask, brother, you really didn't lie to me?"

"After leaving the city, Senior Sister will naturally know the Tao, what good is it for me to deceive Senior Sister?"

Zhao Lin was speechless, still skeptical.

After all, it's too exaggerated to be believed.

That mask can deceive the divine consciousness of a real person in the early stage of Jindan, and naturally it can also deceive the Zhuji monk, did Zhang Weidong hide his strength before? This seems to be very likely.

"Okay!"

"Thank you!"

"By the way, junior brother, why didn't you kill the Qi steward just now?

"Hehe, senior sister thinks that how useful it would be to kill a little person like Steward Qi? Those people won't trouble me? Their people came here, came to look for me, and disappeared after the last one, this account must be counted on my head, and there are more lice and no itching!"

"But, junior brother, I still think you're reckless, it's better not to go out of the city this time, just stay in another courtyard for the time being!"

How could Zhang Weidong waste this time in vain?

Now that he has set the impact on the fifth layer of the foundation, he must always work hard instead of retreating. It is conceivable that if you want to improve another level, it will not take one or two months, but a year or two. After all, the opportunity of the demon beast tide is hard to come by, even if you go out of the city and walk on the edge of life and death, it is far from being comparable to the insight obtained under that kind of opportunity.

Besides, as long as Jin Dan Zhenren doesn't make a move, what is he afraid of?

Who doesn't?

He's got a terrible hole card!

"Don't worry, just be careful, I'll be fine with self-preservation!"

"This, okay!"

After waiting for another long time, in the evening, the big turtle finally completed its transformation and became a demon beast of the second level of the demon general's low-level, and its strength increased several times.

At this time, it was not early, and Zhang Weidong and Zhao Lin had no choice but to postpone the trip for another day.
