"Gongzi Zhang, please!" Xuan Qing stepped out of the way and gestured with his hand. A jade-paved path emerges in the medicine garden.

Xuan Qing said again: "Childe, don't step out of the Spirit Picking Dao, once the formation is activated, you will immediately be filled by the water of the Nine Yin, and what will happen at that time is not something I can control." ”

Xuan Qing followed behind Zhang Xiaoshan and explained the spirit grass in the medicine garden to him at will: "The fairy grass here is all precious! All of them are rare! The more you go to the middle of the year, the older it is, there are a few 10,000-year-old spirit grasses that have formed spiritual consciousness and can walk around the garden at will, and the following immortals cannot be refined into pills at all." As soon as Xuan Qing finished speaking, a fat doll wearing a red belly pocket ran past in the park.

"Look, it's a 5,000-year-old psychic cinnamon, with extremely strong medicinal properties, and only a trace of roots can be refined into a psychic soul renewal pill. After a pause, Xuan Qing continued: "If the Psychic Soul Renewing Pill can be taken at the time of the tribulation, it can increase the success rate of the tribulation. Even if the tribulation fails, it will not fall immediately, with the assistance of the elixir, there is still a hundred years left, during which whether it is reincarnation or reincarnation, there is no time to completely transfer the soul consciousness. ”

"It's so amazing!" Zhang Xiaoshan said with emotion, he also knew that there were many difficulties in crossing the tribulation, and not necessarily one of the hundred people would succeed, once he failed, his form and spirit would be destroyed, and his thousand-year-old cultivation would be destroyed in an instant, and even his consciousness would not be left, and the real ashes would be destroyed. If this Psychic Soul Renewal Pill really has such an effect, the person who has crossed the tribulation can completely dissipate his mana, transfer his consciousness, and retain his soul consciousness, although he has fallen into the suffering of reincarnation again, it is better than being wiped out. It seems that if he has the opportunity in the future, he must get the secret recipe and materials of this psychic soul renewal pill.

A thousand-year-old spirit grass continued to appear in the medicine gardens on both sides, and Xuan Qing also introduced it for the first time, and sure enough, as he said before, all of them were precious anomalies. Zhang Xiaosan was really an eye-opener. However, he still had a question in his heart, and after thinking about it, he still asked: "What does Zhilucao look like, why didn't I see it." ”

Xuan Qing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "There are a total of eight medicine gardens in this world according to the age and level, and the medicine garden you are in is the highest grade, and the Zhilu grass you are talking about is only produced by a third-class medicine garden, how can it be compared with the first-class immortal grass here." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan suddenly understood something: "I was still calculated by Xuan Ming." He guided himself to this top-level medicine garden, making it clear that he didn't want to let himself be qualified to pick elixir!

Knowing that he was being calculated by Xuanming, Zhang Xiaoshan let go of his heart, and he didn't have any demands. Looking at the spiritual grass in the medicine garden, listening to Xuanqing's explanation, his face was filled with a heartfelt smile, all of them were out to play, and the whole person's mood became more and more high.

"The son of the Zhang family is quite interested!" Even Xuan Qing felt the change in Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Hey, I'm going to come out and see it. I had no desire in my heart, and my mood naturally improved. Zhang Xiaoshan explained, handed the treasure fan to Xuan Qing, and said: "This treasure was found here, and it's useless for me to take it, see that you are still pleasing to the eye, give it to you as a gift, you can take it out and fan it when it's hot, it's practical." ”

Xuan Qing took the treasure fan, looked at it carefully for a while, and praised: "It is indeed a good fan, and Xuan Qing accepted the gift of the son." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the surrounding environment and said curiously: "Senior Xuanqing, I am a little confused, I want you to help me answer it." ”

Xuan Qing gestured, "Childe, please speak." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan pointed to the surrounding immortal grass and asked, "The strength of the Xuan Ming predecessor is so strong, how can he be trapped here. I don't believe my ancestors had such powerful mana. ”

Xuan Qing looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, very surprised that he would ask this question, he was silent for a while, and said: "I can't imagine that you are so young, but you can have such insight, it really surprises me! I have a story, I don't know if you want to hear it!"

Zhang Xiaoshan nodded, and Xuan Qing slowly explained the reason.

"After the beginning of the chaos, the first batch of living beings in the universe, nourished by heaven and earth, I don't know how many billions of years ago, they cultivated into a true body, ranking seventeenth on the list of gods and spirits of heaven and earth, with a great reputation. But I don't want the heavenly realm to be chaotic, the universe is turbulent, my king is also involved in it, in a tragic battle lost his godhead, lost most of his mana, and was chased and killed by the enemy, although he escaped by luck, but he was also seriously injured and trapped in this realm. In order to take revenge in the future, he searched for people who were destined in this plane and accepted them as disciples to pass on spells. I don't want to be unpredictable, a son of the human race actually took advantage of the king's ignorance, and teamed up with the four fierce beasts to try to seal the king's body here, although it was not successful, but my king's temperament changed greatly, and all the disciples were refined into incarnations, no longer facing the world with their true bodies, and what your ancestors defeated was only one of the king's incarnations, and there were more than a dozen similar incarnations. Moreover, the Xuanshui Mansion is open once in a hundred years, and the king will select the right monk to refine it into a new incarnation. ”

"You said that the predecessors of Xuan Ming opened the cave mansion, but it was just to choose the incarnation, not to eat people. Zhang Xiaosan asked.

"Hehe! The king does like to eat living things, but how can he satisfy the king's appetite with only a few thousand people coming in every hundred years? In this spiritual realm, there are ten utensils that are specially used to produce meat, but due to the power of mana, the taste is not as sweet as the outside. Each time we always leave some interloper behind to reproduce new offspring. ”

Zhang Xiaoshan felt a burst of discomfort in his stomach when he heard this, he could still have a good chat one moment, but how could he change his painting style the next moment, he just sympathized with Xuan Ming's experience, and immediately felt that he still deserved it, and he could cultivate people to satisfy his appetite, which is not like what a Taoist person can do.

Xuan Qing still continued to introduce the situation of the medicine garden, Zhang Xiaoshan could also feel that Xuan Qing should have been lonely for too long, it was rare for someone to speak, he didn't care, many elixirs forgot after hearing it, the two walked for half an hour, and a simple wooden house finally appeared in front of them.

"This is my residence, please don't dislike the son of the Zhang family. ”

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at this simple house, and felt that a gust of wind could blow it down, how could this live in people. Before he could speak, he saw a silver light flash in front of the wooden house, and Xuan Ming appeared in front of the two with a smile on his face.

Xuan Qing hurriedly said, "King!"

"Go ahead! I'll be alone with this kid for a while. ”

Xuan Qing nodded, and the green light on his body flashed, turning into a spirit snake with cyan scales and wings on its back. The blue light flashed again, and it was more than ten feet away, and the speed was amazing.

Xuan Ming didn't say a word at first, looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, and suddenly smiled: "It's really interesting! You know, I like you a little." ”

Monk Zhang Xiaoshan was confused, he didn't know why Xuan Ming said this, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. Xuan Ming conjured up two treasure boxes, handed them to Zhang Xiaoshan, and said, "This is what I promised Brother Zhu, you accept it first." In the next three years, you can walk around my cave as you like, and no one will stop you, but you can't touch my things, break my rules, or I'll find someone to fix you. ”

"I can't stay here for three years, I'm here with someone else, it's beyond my expectations to be able to get to this level, you better let me leave here!"

"You're sure you're leaving. Not everyone has the opportunity to visit here. Xuan Ming said deliberately.

Zhang Xiaoshan thought about it, it was really like this, even if he went out, he would travel around to improve his cultivation, his current mana had reached a bottleneck, and he was ready to hit the Jindan period in a short time, why not just do it here? The environment here is deep, full of aura, and there is no danger, and he can also take the opportunity to travel around and precipitate his mind, it is not a bad thing, he is just a little worried about Yang Xihongjun's injury, after all, she rashly ate the Life and Death Pill, and she didn't get Zhilucao, who knows what side effects will be in the past three years.

He said helplessly: "I don't want to leave here just like that, it's just that I have a companion who must get this Zhilu grass, I'm worried..."

"Hehe, you're still too young. The situation in the world is the most impermanent!The others you are worried about, will others worry about you!" Xuan Ming took out a black scale from his body and said: "Put this scale on your body, in the past three years, as long as you don't look for death by yourself, no one can touch you." After speaking, the silver light flashed, and Xuan Ming disappeared.

Zhang Xiaoshan reluctantly opened the treasure box, saw the Zhilu grass inside, and said with emotion: "Just for you, so many people died!" After speaking, put the Zhilu grass back into the treasure box and keep it properly, he was not stupid enough to eat this spiritual grass raw, Yang Xi Hongjun said that this Zhilu herb is mild, but it is only used to coordinate other materials, and it does not have too peculiar medicinal effects. And the other Tianhuo Nine-Leaf Lotus is even more inedible, this is the legendary fairy grass, if you don't have a good way to eat it, it is estimated that your intestines will regret it.

He looked at the medicine garden around him, smelled the fragrance in the air, and sat directly on the ground and meditated. After so many days, I can finally take a good rest.

In the following days, Zhang Xiaoshan spent his days meditating in the spiritual world. It took him more than twenty days to finally figure out the situation in the entire living spirit world, and he dared to say that he must be the first, and definitely the last person who had the opportunity to do so, after all, there was only one Blazing Zhu who could make Xuan Ming value.

The living soul world is divided into eight large blocks, distributed according to the eight gates of Taiji, with eight medicine gardens, twelve cage areas, ten instrument workshops used to cultivate the population, and a huge magic circle mechanism. There are also many soul suppression platforms that can be seen everywhere, according to Xuan Qing, because there are too many dead people in this layer, there are always some souls who refuse to leave, and they can only set up some soul suppression platforms to disperse some stubborn souls.

"Boy, if you come again, I'll tear you to shreds when I go out. The white dragon in the cage flew angrily. This kid doesn't know what the origin is, but he can come in and out of here freely, and he comes to himself every few days and chats with himself, how could his dignified dragon clan princess be so humiliated.

"Your temper is so big, it's not good, and even more so for you dragon girls, who are prone to wrinkles at the corners of your eyes. After speaking, Zhang Xiaoshan laughed and ran away. He would come here every once in a while to play with the white dragon, and he was indeed a little embarrassed by the defeat in the battle that day.

He came to the cage of the nine-tailed fox again, bowed respectfully, sat cross-legged on the ground, and said, "Master, you are well! I am here!"

"You kid, sweating profusely. Isn't it going to tease Princess Miao again? The "Nine-Tailed Spirit Fox" Tu Lanzhi "is still leaning on the bluestone, looking at Zhang Xiaoshan with a blurred look.

"That woman doesn't have a good temper, I'm going to tease her. It's really funny to see how angry she looks, and she can't do anything about me. Haha!" Zhang Xiaoshan said with a smile.

"You kid, it's better to go less! Although Princess Miao's temper is a little worse, but her mana can't be faked, if it weren't for the lack of elixir here, she would have broken the pill and become a primordial baby. Tu Lanzhi smiled bitterly.

"It's so powerful, but the dragon guys are unruly, and it's fun to tease them. Zhang Xiaoshan pouted and said.

"Okay, let's not talk about them, how are you practicing the mental method I gave you last time. ”

Maybe it was fate, Zhang Xiaoshan had a cordial impression from the first time he saw the nine-tailed spirit fox "Tu Lanzhi", and every time after playing the White Dragon Princess, he would always come to Tu Lanzhi to sit here for a while and chat with the nine-tailed fox. After going back and forth, the nine-tailed spirit fox Tu Lanzhi also had a good impression of this young man, and made an exception and decided to accept this young Terran youth as an apprentice and grant some demon clan cultivation methods.

"Teacher, I still have some doubts about the mental method you gave me last time. Zhang Xiaoshan will be puzzled one by one. Tu Lanzhi patiently explained, Zhang Xiaoshan gained a lot every time, although his mana did not increase, but his body was stronger than before, compared to the cultivation of mana, the demon clan's heart method paid more attention to the tempering of the body.

There was a "click" sound from the magic circle, and Zhang Xiaoshan, who was originally sitting cross-legged, opened his eyes, and the last thing he wanted to hear was this sound. He knew that every time this voice sounded, a thousand living people would be sent to the seventh layer for Xuan Ming to enjoy.

In fact, even the demon beasts in this cage are precarious, and one day, they will be teleported to the seventh layer, or their skin cramps, or take away the demon pill.

"Xiaoshan, do you know, from the first time I saw you, I found from your eyes that you are a person who has too much to worry about, I don't know why you are so young that you show a look of enlightenment, as if you have experienced life and death, if your state of mind is so chaotic, you are destined to not go far in the way of heaven and earth!" Tu Lanzhi said, her worries were the same as Zhang Daocheng's, and she felt the strangeness in Zhang Xiaoshan's heart.

Zhang Xiaoshan looked into the distance, watching the black ball in the center of the circle emitting black light, fluctuating violently, and suddenly felt a feeling in his heart, and muttered: "Master, the ancestor of my family also said the same thing about me, but I always fall into an illusion and can't extricate myself!"

In that world, he is just an ordinary person, without any mana, from the ignorance of childhood to the inaction of youth, although life has not improved, but there has always been a beautiful shadow around him selflessly accompanied by himself. He can clearly remember the feeling of holding hands and hugging for the first time for the first time, just creating people, he was infected with a strange disease, he lost his ability to move at a young age, and in the last few years of his life, she was the one who took care of herself, and when she died, she cried so sadly......

"Xiaoshan!" Tu Lanzhi suddenly snorted softly, awakening Zhang Xiaoshan's consciousness.

Zhang Xiaoshan said "Ah!", woke up, looked ashamed, and said in a low voice: "Teacher, I will say goodbye first, and I will come back to you in a few days to say goodbye!"

"Cold for eternity, everything is still quiet, the mind is calm, I am alone, the heart and mind are one, the qi should follow each other, the intersperse is like a surplus, all changes are not shocked, no ignorance, no anger, no desire, no desire, no abandonment, no self!" Looking at the lonely figure of Zhang Xiaoshan in the distance, Tu Lanzhi gently recited the Taoist law of tranquility.

Zhang Xiaoshan returned to the grass house in embarrassment, Xuan Qing was not here, he pressed his fluctuating emotions, sat on the futon in front of the grass house, and recited the law decision that Tu Lanzhi had just taught over and over again. The more he tried to calm himself down, the more his heart fluctuated, and his true qi suddenly lost control, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, and lay on the ground weakly.

Although he seemed embarrassed, all the chaotic thoughts just now left him with the mouthful of blood, but his body was injured internally, and he urgently needed some pills to restore the meridians.

Xuanqing, who was dressed in green armor, flickered and appeared at the door of the grass house, and found that Zhang Xiaoshan had blood on the corner of his mouth, lying on the ground, and he hurriedly asked, "Zhang Gongzi, what's wrong?"

"Hehe!" Zhang Xiaoshan said with a smile: "It's okay, there are some minor problems in the practice, it's not a big deal, just rest for a while." It's staining your house. ”

Xuan Qing came to Zhang Xiaoshan's side, gently flattened Zhang Xiaoshan, checked it, and said, "The true qi in your body is particularly chaotic, and several meridians have also been severely damaged, how can you say it's okay." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan's eyes rolled, he thought about it, pretended to be indifferent, and said: "It's really okay, it's just that there is some discomfort in the chest, it would be nice if there were some recovery pills, but my pills are all on my companions." Alas, I had to hold on to it. ”

After hearing this, Xuanqing on the side laughed "hehe" and said, "You baby, you don't know what to say, and you use words to trick me." After a pause, he took out a leather bag from his arms and handed it to Zhang Xiaoshan: "Inside are some pills I have refined myself, not something valuable, but it is suitable for your situation, you take one every twelve hours, don't eat more, otherwise you can't blame me for any condition." ”

Zhang Xiaoshan snatched the pill and put it in his arms, with a smile on his face: "Thank you Xuanqing senior."

"You have a lot of ideas, but I want to ask you, are you going to stay with me for the rest of the time?"
