Deep mountains and valleys, clear springs, bamboo shadows fluttering.

The five-colored aura flickered, and the sword qi surging horizontally.

Whenever his mind is uncertain, suffering from gains and losses, Zhang Lie will find a quiet place to practice swordsmanship alone:

Strenuous exercise transforms mental anguish into physical pain, which is relieved by release.

And this time, it is undoubtedly not so easy.

The scene of a few months ago is still in front of me, and the sound is still in my ears.

But Zhang Lie was not sure whether Shizun was cheating on himself, or if he really knew that he had really let go.

At the same time, he didn't know if his strong self-calm reaction and expression at that time were fast enough, and whether he had succeeded in hiding from his master.

"When something is uncertain and disturbs the mind, do your best to do something useful, this is the best choice."

After months of self-suppression and retreat in the cave, he finally couldn't hold it back, left the cave, and danced the sword outside for seven days and nights.

Zhang Lie was not unaware of the dangers of doing so, if the master was hidden on the side...... But he really couldn't hold it anymore.

The surging mana transformed into a violent sword qi, accompanied by his own sword swing and sweep.

Boom, boom, boom...... The scattered sword light even caused a violent explosion to occur all around, and the mountains and rocks also collapsed and shattered.

"Whirring ......"

It wasn't until he had almost exhausted all the mana in his body that Zhang Lie's mind briefly relaxed and emptied.

During this period of time, in the dead of night, the past rushed up, and it was difficult to restrain it, and the great fear was like a tide in the darkness that overflowed the spiritual platform, turning into a huge wave and shooting down, as if to erase all the original pure thoughts here.

However, until this moment, Zhang Lie's mind gradually recondensed, and his eyes once again became firm and sharp.

Re-experiencing the tempering of negative emotions such as fear, anxiety, and so on that had not appeared for a long time, his state of mind cultivation has unconsciously taken a step further.

"The master may already know, but it is more likely that it is just suspicion. But with me, no matter what, I can't show my flaws, and I can't hide this matter forever, which is the best choice for everyone, for me, and for my master. ”

Qiang, Qiang, slowly withdrew the five flying swords floating around, Zhang Lie took a breath and took out the Blood Killing Sword and returned to the Xianzhi Peak Cave Mansion, his spirit was completely relaxed after the extreme pain.

Back in the cave, Yan Wan and Fang Jirou were manipulating the Lingzhu puppet to do cleaning and tidying work.

It is not an easy task to run a cave, especially since this cave has a spiritual field and an elixir garden, and the two of them have time and even have to go to farming, so it is not that they can enjoy the spiritual vein resources without doing anything.

"Meet the Lord."

"Meet Senior Brother."

After seeing Zhang Lie, Yan Wan and Fang Jirou's titles were a little different, and Zhang Lie was noncommittal about this, there was no difference to him.

Moving to the cave library, there are more than a dozen bookshelves, these bookshelves are made of spirit wood, which is a special low-level magic weapon, dry and strong, and can also prevent insects, ants, snakes and rats from eating and destroying the collection.

The library room and the practice meditation room are not allowed by Yan Wan and Fang Jirou, otherwise they will be driven out of the cave, which is also a rule that many monks will have.

The practice of a monk is a very personal matter. For example, it is one aspect of one's self-knowledge of one's own warmth and coldness, but not showing one's self-awareness to others is another.

Most of the mana in Zhang Lie's body had been depleted, so he sat on a chair in the library and rested for a while, then took down a jade box on the bookshelf.

Corn corn

Opening it, this jade box used a spirit rune spell to suppress a ginseng-like earthy yellow monster: the tree spirit can also be called a wood spirit.

After a two-year interval, consulting the collection and looking for a famous person to identify it, Zhang Lie already knew what the purpose of this object was:

Cultivating for thousands of years, cultivating the essence of plants and trees that have cultivated their own spiritual wisdom is the best treasure for high-level monks to cultivate incarnations outside the body.

However, it is a pity in Zhang Lie's hands, although the spirituality is full, but the accumulation of cultivation is not enough, it is not enough for the Jindan real cultivator to refine into an external incarnation, if it is allowed to cultivate for thousands of years, it will be almost able to be hot.

But then the value is greatly reduced.

However, the low-level has low-level uses, and a famous expert told Zhang Lie that the tree fairy spirit in his hand can be used to replenish the spirituality of high-grade magic weapons and puppets.

Although it is only a first- or second-order tree goblin, the grass and wood demon has strong mana, and through a special attraction and excitation method, this tree goblin can completely strengthen the spirituality of the third-order high-grade magic weapons and puppets, making them much more powerful.

Even if this item is directly exchanged for the Zongmen General Affairs Palace, it can also guarantee two thousand good deeds.

If you meet a high-level monk in need, it is entirely possible to squeeze out four thousand, six thousand spirit stones, or even more, provided that you can ensure that the other party will not retaliate or even assassinate you afterwards.

After all, six thousand spirit stones is not a small amount of cultivation resources for a Foundation Building Realm cultivator.

Why is there such value?

Because a good third-order high-grade magic weapon or puppet can be completely superimposed after receiving spiritual blessings.

And the divine sense mana of a Foundation Building Realm cultivator is also limited, and it is possible to control three or five magic weapons at the same time without refining the mystical method, and it is likely that he will not be able to fully exert the power of the magic weapon.

At this time, having a magic weapon or puppet with a spiritual power far above the normal third-order level could completely allow a Foundation Building Realm cultivator to gain strength that surpassed most of his peers.

That's where the value of the dryad comes in, especially for many casual cultivators who only believe in themselves.

Of course, on the other hand, letting a loose cultivator take out such a large sum of spirit stones is also quite a deathly thing, and it will definitely hate you for a lifetime.

"I really didn't expect that your little thing is so valuable."

took out the tree fairy spirit and played with it for a while, and in Zhang Lie's hands, it was like a sleeping ginseng baby, which was pitiful.

It's a pity that Zhang Lie has never forgotten that the human village before and the deep pit under the ancient tree are full of bones.

Zhang Lie didn't care much about things like enhancing the spirituality of magic weapons or puppets.

He cultivated the Four Elements of Dharma, practiced swords every day to nurture the spirituality of the flying sword tailored for himself, and spent nearly 10,000 good deeds to cultivate his senior brother Fang Ang, who had the talent of a swordsmith.

If it goes well, and he is promoted to build a foundation, these five flying swords can also be promoted to a third-order five-element flying sword, and for magic weapons and puppets, the former is used less, and the latter Zhang Lie has not used it at all.

Therefore, for Zhang Lie, there is a high probability that this tree fairy spirit is going to be sold, and now it is just in his hand and waiting for the price to be sold.

During these few months, two major events took place in South Vietnam.

One is the demise and destruction of the Yan family, one of the three major immortal cultivation families, but the war did not stop because of this, but the entire seven sects of South Vietnam were surging with each other, which was also the reason why the Seven Evil Daoists of Shizun advised Zhang Lie not to ask for all and to be promoted as soon as possible to build a foundation.

I don't know what day the Monk War will happen.

The second is an extremely mysterious Mrs. You, who loves to appreciate the sword of the Nine Domains and Seven Continents of the World, and takes the Jindan period of cultivation as a treasure ship and travels the world, it stands to reason that although the cultivation of the Jindan real realm is not weak, it is not too strong, but the major immortal cultivation sects have made it convenient and allowed Mrs. You to evaluate the world's swordsmanship, and everyone in the world says that this lady has deep roots, and some people even say that she is the beloved concubine of the great monk outside the territory, so she has such a face.

However, for these, Zhang Lie didn't want to pay too much attention to it and didn't want to waste his mind on it, what he wanted now was just to comprehend the golden practice and cultivate the Five Virtues Dao Body to complete his foundation building and promotion, and everything else would be lower than it.

Just like what Master Venerable Seven Evil Daoists said before: No matter how deep the foundation is, a Qi Cultivation Realm cultivator is weaker than a Foundation Realm cultivator. Especially for Zhang Lie.
