Chapter 415: A chill in the back

Zhang Xiaosa is a dual spiritual root of wind and fire, and after Zhang Genliu's careful analysis, he also created an automatic exercise. It's just that his spiritual roots are too small, and the automatic operation speed can't be compared to the guidance of the primordial gods.

The former found a remote mansion to live in, and then began to cultivate. Before his dantian was damaged, he cultivated to be the Great Perfection of the War Marquis, which is often referred to as the quasi-king.

Zhang Gen left him 100,000 Dao Yuan, as well as various cultivation materials. And repeatedly told that until the last resort, do not take pills to restore cultivation.

The Yuan Qi vortex generated by the Twin Spirit Roots is almost negligible if you don't sense it carefully. Zhang Genliu is not worried about his grandfather's future achievements, because a person with a goal in life will never waste his time.

After settling them down, Zhang Genliu also planned to take advantage of the fact that he had not been busy recently and worked hard to improve his combat effectiveness. After a life-and-death battle with the Demon Staff Committee, he obviously had a sense of crisis.

The practice of demons is similar to the body refining method of human beings. When you reach a certain level, you can ignore the attacks of low-level elemental skills. Therefore, Zhang Gen stayed in the room, running the automatic exercises while studying the mysteries of the body refining exercises.

The vast majority of the body refining techniques circulated by the Celestial City Star incorporate Yuan Qi into flesh and blood, which is similar to the cultivation method of demons. Zhang Genliu carefully contrasted the process of the birth of the Yuan Body with the empty travel gong.

One is to incorporate the vitality into the flesh and blood, and the other is to incorporate the vitality into the essence and blood, but there is no exercise that integrates the vitality into the bone marrow.

In three days, after thousands of deductions, Zhang Genliu improved the automatic exercises into body refining exercises, and retained the original functions. It's just that in this way, the speed of cultivation is more than a hundred times slower than before.

Just as he was about to cultivate, ** came to the door. The two didn't need to communicate regularly, and Zhang Genliu knew his intention.

It turned out that a month later, the news of the reopening of the Immortal Cultivation Professional Competition had already spread throughout the Celestial City Star. This is not only related to the competition of the five major cities, but also related to the rise and fall of the more than 100,000 small cities under the jurisdiction of the five major cities.

The city lords of those small cities couldn't sit still. They sent a large number of emissaries to visit each seeded player one by one.

The reputation of Zhang Genliu's dark horse spread like a plague in the Celestial City Star. So recently, tens of thousands of envoys have come to Yingke Island.

Some came to give gifts, some came to ask to join, and some came to give women. There were too many people who came at one time, whether to reject them all, or accept them all, the people of Tianji Pavilion were at odds for a while.

After Zhang Genliu learned about it, he made a decision instantly. The visitor is a guest, all the gifts are accepted, and the information of all the castle lords is recorded.

It doesn't matter if those people are right or evil, or if they are listening to the news in the name of giving gifts. The important thing is that Zhang Genliu wants to tell the city lords of the 100,000 cities of the Heavenly City Star that the Heavenly Machine Pavilion is willing to befriend everyone and has no intention of forming a grudge with any force.

As for those city lords who didn't send people, let ** try to remind them that it is best not to be an enemy of themselves, otherwise the consequences will be serious.

Zhang Genliu did this, not to show his identity as the little brother of the city lord, but to tell everyone that Tianji Pavilion should never be soft persimmons.

**'s work efficiency is comparable to Zhang Genliu's, and a few days later, many small and medium-sized families sent envoys. There are even many hermitages out of the mountain, hoping to join the Tianji Pavilion.

This time, ** didn't discuss it with Zhang Genliu again, as long as it wasn't an enemy, it was all accepted. As for whether these people are unruly or not, and whether they will form gangs within the sect, it doesn't matter anymore.

Because Zhang Genliu has always been gracious to those who abide by the rules, and there is no forgiveness for those who are rampant.

In just one month, the number of residents of Yingke Island has increased to 200 million. And the members of the Tianji Pavilion have also increased by more than 100,000.

The land area of Yingke Island is too small, and ** sent people to dig up a large amount of soil from the seabed, expanding the area of the island to ten times the original size.

Someone once asked, why not drive the corpse demons of the tomb island behind them to the side, wouldn't it be better to expand the territory directly there?

**'s answer was both simple and crude: "Those are all members of my Tianji Pavilion, do you want to split within the sect?"

When everyone heard the news, they were all shocked. Especially the old man who asked the question, he was originally ready to deal with the corpse demon. Because he is a traitor of the Tianyang Sect, what he learned is to deal with yin ghosts and evil spirits. After hearing that he was going to be in the company of corpse demons, he immediately had to quit the Heavenly Machine Pavilion.

He originally thought that Tianji Pavilion would trouble him because of this. Unexpectedly, not only did no one find his stubble, but he also received some coils when he left.

After this incident, everyone believed that Tianji Pavilion really treated his subordinates well. At least it's not like those small and medium-sized sects, which are welcomed when they come, and they must take off their skins when they leave.

However, ** still let everyone know that it is the person who has not violated the door rules, otherwise he will be severely punished.

A month passed quickly, and on this day Zhang Genliu walked out of the residential area. When I saw the new scene of the entire Yingke Island, I was also surprised.

In just one month, the prosperity level has surpassed that of the medicine mall, which is simply a miracle.

After some preparations, Zhang Genliu set off. There are not many people brought this time, in addition to Qi Chuyu, Lan Chuyue, and Hai Ningxiang, there are also Chu family members.

Because Chu Shijian inquired about Zhang Genliu's various deeds, he wanted to attach himself to him and then recapture Xiliu City. As for Chu Tiantian selling himself to the latter, he didn't care anymore. Because he inquired that although Zhang Genliu was arrogant, he was really good to his own woman.

When he came to Tucheng again, Zhang Genliu went directly to the Formation Mage Guild, because there would be free entertainment for formation mages above the fourth grade. A Jiupin master like Zhang Genliu has an independent house.

Tomorrow is the Worm Gu Competition, which was originally divided into two events, Yuan Worm and Gu Worm, but due to time and the number of participants, the two were merged.

And it's not just the two events that are combined. There are also alchemists and poison refiners, flying swords, sword cultivators, knife cultivators, spear cultivators, etc., sound cultivators and illusion cultivators, all of which have been merged.

And those who are not merged, there are array mages, talisman masters, refiners, and so on. Now there are only nine tournaments, and except for the animal pet competition that has ended, people are focusing on the final final.

Because of the points in the first few games, even if they all pass, there are only 800 points in total. So many people think that the last game is the key to victory.

The eleven major sects unanimously decided that the last game would be conducted in the form of points competition. As a result, basically no one participated in the first few games. Because the hard-earned points will still be taken away by those ruthless people in the end.

But Zhang Genliu didn't think so, at least for him, it was a good opportunity to learn about the enemy, and he could learn a lot of unknown things.

In the middle of the night, the whole Tucheng fell silent.

Outside Zhang Genliu's courtyard, two people suddenly came. For a high-level array mage, even if they hide their figures, they can't hide from the detection of the formation.

The two hesitated outside the door for a moment, but the old man with long eyebrows stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Come in!" Zhang Gen shouted before the old man knocked on the door.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then they both entered the courtyard. Zhang Genliu didn't get up, but just opened the door and invited them in.

"Please take a seat! The two of you are visiting late at night, and there must be something important to discuss, so let's talk directly!"

"That's right, Captain Lu and I thought about it for a long time, and I think it's more appropriate for the earth city to be in charge of the master!" said the elder elder Changmei.

"Tell me why!"

"There's only one word for the reason – chaos!" said Captain Lu.

"Do you think I'm ruthless enough to keep the big and small forces in Tucheng safe?"

"Yes! In the past, the biggest force here was the Youxing Gang, and even the medicine family next to them had to respect them for three points!

When they are there, they can barely restrain those small and medium-sized forces. But now, the entire Tucheng is fighting openly and secretly all the time. Many merchants are overwhelmed and have to move to other cities!"

Captain Lu said this, his face was full of frustration. Zhang Genliu saw this, who didn't know that he had been overwhelmed in the past month.

"Who is the strongest force now?" asked Zhang Genliu with a smile.

"There is no one strongest now, twenty-four medium families, and the power is basically the same!"

"What about cultivation? Are the cultivation of those family masters similar?"

"Almost! So after a month of continuous fighting, there is still no winner or loser!"

"Are there any other major sects that have come to meddle?"

"No...... Hiss...... I don't know!"

"It seems that there is! They are embarrassed to make a move, so they can only find a medium family in Tucheng as an agent!"

"What Pavilion Master Zhang said is that this should be the case! I said why so many monks above the sixth blood suddenly appeared in the city recently!" Captain Lu said as he touched his two beards.

"With your current strength, how many families can be suppressed at the same time?"

"This ......"

"It's okay, tell me the truth!"

"It's hard to do any of them!"

"I understand, they are here for you, the squadron leader! If Tucheng continues to fight like this, Marshal Niu will definitely remove you from your position!

Those people in the Council of Elders have the right to speak, and finding someone to replace you is just a matter of saying something!"

"This ...... This ...... Ask Pavilion Master Zhang to save me!" Captain Lu suddenly knelt down.

Even if you lose this position, you don't have to worry about your life, so where do you start?"

"Pavilion Master Zhang, don't you know, I have offended many small and medium-sized families over the years because the law enforcement has been too strict. If he is dismissed, he will not live for more than three days!"

"In this way, you have not only offended the small and medium-sized families, but also which major sects, right?"

"Uh......"

"If you don't make it clear, I can't save you!"

Some are arrogant sons, some are the wives and concubines of those sect masters, and some are elders and deacons. ”

"So, you're the confidant of the Fifth Elder?"

"I can't talk about my henchmen, it's just that he saw that I was very persistent in doing things, so he transferred me to Tucheng!"

"How much do you know about the Fifth Elder?"

"I'll tell you the truth, I used to think I knew what he did. But then I heard about something, and I don't know how to judge it myself!"

"For example?"

"For example, in the case of Chi Zhongdan, I don't think he needs to do that. Because his prestige is already very high, why should he fight for power?"

"Who else did you say that?"

"Uh...... A month ago, after the demons were exterminated, Marshal Niu said when he met me!"

When Zhang Genliu heard this, he was shocked in his heart. There are only a handful of people who can mobilize tens of thousands of six-blooded cultivators in the Heavenly City Star to do things. In addition to the eleven major sects and Li Xuanxin, there is only Marshal Niu.

The eleven major sects want to compete for the five major cities, and there is no need to make small moves in secret, then only Marshal Niu will be left.

"Don't say this to others in the future, don't mention it! And you don't have a heart, don't talk nonsense outside!"

The old man with long eyebrows was named Fang Lixin, and after he and Captain Lu glanced at each other, they nodded at the same time.

Zhang Genliu recalled Marshal Niu's various behaviors, which is indeed worth pondering.

First of all, as a marshal of border operations, he casually found an excuse to return to Devaginari. At that time, it was the time when the Fifth Elder attacked Li Xuanxin, and he appeared by coincidence.

Secondly, the last time Li Xuanxin fought with the Demon Staff Group to the death, he prevented himself from helping. He also arranged for himself to go to the demon camp for a surprise attack, which was simply an act of death. The most strange thing is that the demons all seem to know that he is going to carry out a sneak attack.

In the end, he led more than 10 million troops to Xiancao Mountain, but was captured unscathed. The most important thing is that the 10 million soldiers were also unscathed.

This is simply impossible for a Marshal Niu who has fought all his life. Unless the two sides are not fighting at all, the purpose is only to lure Li Xuanxin to Xiancao Mountain to die.

This series of incidents had to make Zhang Genliu suspect that Marshal Niu had either eaten Chizhong Dan or had already harbored dissent.

He even suspected that the last time he slept for three consecutive days, it was also Marshal Niu's secret manipulation.

Thinking of this, Zhang Genliu's back couldn't help but feel a chill.
