Chapter 70: The Beginning of the Ninth Day
After making a rough plan for the next schedule, before preparing for the retreat, Meng Zhou took out the five storage bags in his arms and took a rough inventory.
His strength was already stronger than the five Zheng Sheng who ambushed him, but he already had such overwhelming strength, but he didn't talk about martial virtues, and he used one trick after another.
The two sides did not officially fight, so they gave full account to the enemy.
So, the harvest of the loot is also very complete.
After a little tapping, Meng Zhou couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder He Shengtang can't hold it and gradually goes down the evil path!" ”
There are a total of 1,453 low-grade spirit stones, of which there are three medium-grade spirit stones.
a first-order high-grade magic weapon, that is, the giant hammer used by Zheng Sheng;
There are two first-order high-grade magic swords, and four first-order middle-grade magic swords.
There are five first-order medium-grade magic weapons and three first-order low-grade magic weapons, all of which are very common offensive and defensive types.
In addition, there are many medium-grade and high-grade Lingmi Ling Tea Demon Beast meat reserves, and there are more than fifty talismans of all kinds.
In addition to these, there are also a large number of spare weapons mixed with some spiritual materials and hidden weapons such as throwing knives and hidden arrows.
There were also large quantities of gold, silver and personal belongings.
There are so many things that the space inside the five storage bags is almost maximized.
But after counting these, the most vivid feeling in Meng Zhou's heart was shabby.
In addition to Zheng Sheng, who had a top-grade magic weapon, another seventh-level Qi cultivator only had a high-grade magic sword and two medium-grade magic weapons.
The fifth-level cultivator with the lowest cultivation level didn't even have a medium-grade magic weapon, and only used a low-grade magic weapon to support the scene.
Except for Zheng Sheng and the other Qi Cultivation Seventh-Layer Storage Bag, there were more spirit stones in the other three's pockets, and the spirit stones in the pockets of the other three were not as good as the Qi Cultivation Five-Layer that Meng Zhou had killed on the bank of the Baijiang River.
These are all monks who have been robbed for a while under the command of He Shengtang, and they are not the most difficult to mix and the most down-and-out casual cultivators in the legend.
Although it adds up to a lot of windfall, it is not a little less than Meng Zhou's expectations before the inventory.
He couldn't help but reflect in his heart, perhaps, this was the current situation of the largest number of non-professional cultivators, and the group of professional cultivators he had been in contact with the most had made his consistent cognition a little biased.
Meng Zhou packed all the useful harvests into a storage bag, and the Lingmi Demon Beast Meat Reserve, which took up the largest space, was transferred to his own storage bag with the largest space.
Other useless things were either sunk into the deep pool by him, and personal items such as clothes were burned to ashes with a flame charm.
Five storage bags, all added up, the internal space is only in the early tens, and the one worn by Zheng Sheng is the largest, only five squares, and one three, three parties.
Coupled with the original two on his body, looking at the seven storage bags of different sizes and styles and colors on his body, Meng Zhou smiled bitterly: "I'm also a seven-bag elder, right?" ”
After dealing with these, Meng Zhou entered the quiet room in the inner room, closed the heavy stone door, and took out the first-order high-grade spirit gathering array disk.
The array plate, which was originally only the size of a dish, turned into a circle of nearly two meters with a diameter of nearly two meters as the mana was activated, just the same size as the ashram.
In the center of the Spirit Gathering Array Plate, there is a round jade plate.
With a slight twist, the jade disc rotated one hundred and eighty degrees, revealing an empty pit.
Meng Zhou took out the lower grade spirit stones and filled them in, and it was not until they were filled with a hundred that the pit was filled.
Then, the jade plate returned to its place.
Soon, Meng Zhou keenly felt that a steady stream of spiritual energy was spreading out from under the jade plate along the rune pattern of the array plate.
The aura permeated the range of the array, and the defensive array was activated, enclosing all the aura within a hemispherical area with a diameter of about two meters.
The quality of the aura in the area became higher and higher, until it reached the first order of the upper grade, which stabilized and no new aura was replenished.
The quality of the aura in this small area is no worse than the stone chamber that has been raised to the top level in the Zaoban Pavilion.
Meng Zhou took a deep breath, and his body and mind were finally truly happy and relaxed.
Elsewhere, away from the environment of the spiritual veins and spiritual land, Meng Zhou would only feel that the spiritual energy was so thin that he could not use it and could not cultivate.
But when he got closer and closer to the Cloud Mountain Range, he felt that not only did he not have any aura, but there was also another strange aura hovering around him.
If we think of aura as water, then this kind of strange qi is simply a water chestnut with sharp and well-grained fine sand, which is not only not beneficial, but harmful to practice.
This is the evil qi, born in the evil vein, and the demon beasts are all born in the evil vein.
It is also the characteristics of evil qi that create the strength of the demon beast and its bloodthirsty and violent nature.
However, demon beast meat is a great supplement for cultivators, and some special materials in the evil veins also have great value for cultivators.
The reason why there are so many demon beasts in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range is that there is a first-order evil vein whose distribution range is still above the Warm Cloud Valley.
The place where Meng Zhou was now was already a part of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, and the evil aura was very strong, and as a cultivator, such an environment made him instinctively feel uncomfortable.
Now, sitting in the Spirit Gathering Array, he finally felt comfortable.
After the night, when Meng Zhou finished his cultivation, he immediately checked his current state.
Repair +3 progress.
He breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.
He checked the consumption of spirit stones again, and out of a hundred spirit stones, ten of them had turned into waste slag, and the other ninety were still in good condition.
Meng Zhou's heart was happy.
"It's a lot less than I expected."
As far as he knew, other cultivators of the same rank consumed fewer spirit stones on a daily basis using the Spirit Gathering Array Disk.
Because they can really refine and absorb much less spiritual energy every day than him, their cultivation efficiency is far lower than his, and the consumption of spirit stones will naturally be less.
At this moment, Meng Zhou felt very wonderful.
Without borrowing the spiritual veins of the spiritual land, even if it is to burn spirit stones for cultivation, the consumption is far less than ordinary people imagine, but the real obstacle is that the price of the spirit gathering array that can be used to burn spirit stones is too high, and it is by no means affordable for ordinary cultivators.
Therefore, this kind of "mobile spiritual land" that can maintain progress wherever you go is only the preserve of a very small number of practitioners.
The other monks, even if they could afford the exertions of daily use, were all stopped by this first high threshold.
After breakfast, Meng Zhou first practiced the knotting method for a while, and then practiced the bear horizontal practice for a while.
When the time was almost up, he had eaten a full meal again, and then he put all his belongings in the storage bag and walked out of the stone room.
After blocking the passage with a boulder, treading water and stepping out of the hidden water curtain, I looked up at the silver-white horse training that rumbled down from a height of a thousand meters.
To surpass this thousand-meter cliff, Meng Zhou had many methods, and he used the simplest one.
A high-grade flying sword flew out of his sleeve and crept into his feet.
Soon, his figure flew up under the support of the flying sword, flying from the deep pool below a thousand meters to the waters a thousand meters above.
As early as when the imperial sword technique was small, he could step on the flying sword and hang in the air a few meters above the ground, swaying without falling.
It's just that you must always hold the sword trick in your hand, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will fall from the flying sword.
After the mastery of the sword, you can basically stand firm and fly slowly.
But I don't dare to be too fast, and I don't dare to be too high, and the technical difficulty of the single flying sword and the body carrying more than 100 catties is still too different, and if you don't pay attention to it, it may become a large-scale disaster scene.
There is basically no practical value.
After reaching the master level of the sword, he can already carry himself in circles in the air with the flying sword.
After the grandmaster, he is already an old driver. Even if you still need to pinch the trick, it can be very smooth and silky.
When it is consummated, the hands are free, and the mind control is completely realized, and it is really possible to fly as much as you want, and go wherever you want.
However, the speed was no faster than he could run.
It's not that Edgeworth is slow, it's that he's running too fast on both feet.
Moreover, the flying of the sword consumes a lot of mana and spiritual power, and it is difficult for Qi cultivators to last, and it is too ostentatious.
And this is equivalent to abolishing the ability of a flying sword for transportation.
Running on both feet consumes very little and is more flexible, you can adjust the direction anytime and anywhere, and you can immediately "exchange the fake for the real" when you encounter a dangerous situation, which is more confusing for those with bad intentions.
With his feet back on the water, the sword flew out of the water and into his sleeve.
Meng Zhou looked up at the sun that was about to reach Zhongtian, and without the slightest stop, he plunged into the mountains.
At this moment, the dense fog that shrouded the mountains had lightened a lot.
It didn't take long for the roar of the giant bear to resound in the mountains, and it became more and more numerous, spreading more and more over a wider area.
About three hours later, Meng Zhou reappeared in this water.
It's just that his image at the moment is very different from when he first came up, how embarrassed and embarrassed he is.
And in the mountains behind him, the roars of the bears came and went, and there was actually some anger and ruin.
At this moment, Meng Zhouyi, who deliberately did not wear a robe, was wearing tattered clothes, and there were even many scabs on his chest, back and back.
Against the backdrop of this embarrassment, the bright smile on his face became more and more dazzling.
After returning to the Water Curtain Cave, Meng Zhou took out the three-legged tripod, and continued to practice the bear horizontal practice method while the feeling of fierce battle with the group of bears had not faded.
He was like turning into a reckless bear, constantly colliding on the three-legged wall, the three legs of the heavy three-legged tripod had been firmly rooted in the ground, and under his repeated collisions, he also let out bursts of light trembling, and the buzzing sound was never broken.
When he stopped, the Reckless Bear Horizontal Cultivation Method was only one step away from breaking through to the Grandmaster.
Master 470/480.
In Yan Xiong's Red Bear Iron Body Method, Meng Zhou saw many good ideas, but also found one of the biggest drawbacks.
That is, his improvement of the Red Bear Iron Body Method is completely based on the Blue Bear Horizontal Cultivation Method.
He made the exercises more in line with himself, and his power became stronger, but he was getting farther and farther away from the "True Bear's Meaning".
This made his self-created horizontal practice method gradually lose its foundation in reality, like rootless duckweed.
If nothing changes, the upper limit will stop there.
Therefore, the first thing Meng Zhou had to do was to see the "real bear" away from the "bear painting".
On the second day, the bear practiced the method with +120 experience and successfully advanced from a master to the realm of a grandmaster.
Grandmaster 110/960.
Meng Zhou tried to mobilize the power of qi and blood, not only the power in the blood and viscera was fully mobilized.
The power hidden deep in the bone marrow also began to obey his command, more majestic, more durable, and the effect of the gain was more obvious.
On the third day, the experience was as good as before, and the feeling in my heart became more and more, and my body was greatly embarrassed, and when I returned, there were no obvious injuries.
In the early morning of the fourth day, just after finishing a night of practice, Meng Zhou found that the upper limit of life was +1 again, from 96 to 97 years old.
On the fifth day, he returned from a fierce battle with the bears, not only was he completely injured, but even his clothes were not damaged.
When Meng Zhou was about to enter the ashram to practice.
Bear Henglian Dharma Master 470/960.
Day 6.
Meng Zhou didn't go to the Cloud Mountains to find a group of bears to make trouble.
It's just that the place where he practiced the Cangxiong Horizontal Practice Method changed from a stone chamber to the bottom of a deep pool.
For this day, as early as the first day of settling in the Water Curtain Cave, Meng Zhou cultivated a new martial art, Turtle Breath.
Now, he has mastered this martial art to the master level, and he is only one step away from the grandmaster.
Now, if he doesn't do strenuous exercise, he can stay in the water for three or four hours without breathing, which is intense exercise, and he can continue for about an hour.
The waters of the waterhole are wide and shallow in depth, with the deepest being more than 100 meters and the shallow being only a few meters.
After the test, Meng Zhou sank the three-legged tripod to the bottom of a twenty-meter-deep pool.
The brand-new cultivation environment made him very uncomfortable for him, who was used to cultivating on the ground.
For a long time, he couldn't get the hang of it, but fortunately, he already had some understanding of the nature of water, and he began to gradually adapt, mastering many of the keys to performing the bear heng practice in the underwater environment.
It's just that it takes almost twice as long as it usually does.
For him now, it didn't take much effort, and he soon succeeded in getting started.
The next day, the second day of water environment cultivation.
Meng Zhou was completely adapted to the cultivation of the Cangxiong Heng Cultivation Method in the water.
The third day of water environment cultivation.
The twenty-meter-deep water was no longer satisfactory to Meng Zhou, and the turtle breath method that had successfully advanced to the level of a grandmaster allowed him to hold on to the bottom for a longer period of time.
He changed the cultivation location to a depth of fifty meters.
Here, the light on the surface of the water has almost disappeared, and it is almost pitch black as far as the eye can see.
However, this has almost no impact on Meng Zhou.
Because on this day, listening to the sound and distinguishing the position, the wolf looking at the eagle, and stepping on the snow to find the plum have been completed.
Ear power, vision, and sense of smell have not only been qualitatively improved, but also can be adjusted according to his own mind, making it more sensitive or dull, and he can selectively take the initiative to accept or block external information.
This allows him to move freely and without any discomfort in a deep-water environment that is very different from the ground.
The fourth day of water environment training.
Meng Zhou successfully fused the "water-based" with the "true bear meaning" that he gradually touched these days.
Originally, in the personal information, "Cangxiong Henglian Dharma Master 950/960" became "??? Grandmaster 330/1600".
The moment he completed this step of transformation, Meng Zhou clearly felt that an invisible compartment in his body disappeared.
Originally, the mana of the water nourishing body technique that was clearly distinct from the horizontal practice method and did not interfere with each other has completed a certain blend with the horizontal practice method.
The specific effect of this still needs to be explored, and the most striking change at the moment is that with the completion of this transformation, his life limit is +2 again, from 97 to 99 years old.
How many days does it take to create a new exercise?
Nine days.
