Meng Zhou made a careful combing of his cultivation plan for the next period of time.

The cultivation of the soul art of backtracking the Circle Light has the highest priority.

And it just so happened that the Wangqi Technique was about to be completed, and it happened to be topped with this soul technique.

After just a cursory glance, Meng Zhou knew that the cultivation difficulty of this soul technique was still above the soul shaking technique and the qi looking technique.

So far, this was the most difficult to cultivate among all the second-order skills he had come into contact with.

However, after the successive transformations and improvements of the soul refining method, Meng Zhou's soul quality has now reached the second-order limit, so this soul technique is a little more difficult for him, and there is no threshold to step forward.

Moreover, with the foreshadowing of the Soul Shaking Technique and the imminent consummation of the Qi Hope Technique, he is no longer a novice in the Divine Soul.

Meng Zhou roughly estimated in his heart that it should still be easier to get started than when he first learned the Soul Shaking Technique.

In addition to the soul art of tracing the Yuanguang, there are four spells and two sword arts.

It's not that he wants to learn the spells when he sees them, but these four spells happen to be a blind spot in his existing skills, just enough to fill in the gap.

In the process of learning these spells, you can also deepen your own understanding of the forces of other systems.

The two Edgeworth Techniques also have their own characteristics, which can further enrich their "arsenal" and prepare for the completion of the "Innate Sword Body" in the future.

All have the value of cultivation.

After completing these cultivations, Meng Zhou planned to focus on the side of the Qi and Blood Refining Body, as well as the completion and in-depth excavation of several career fields, while suspending the cultivation of conventional spell skills.

Because as more and more second-order skills were mastered to the consummation level, a problem that had arisen in the time of Qi training had reappeared now.

For example, when he cultivated a regular offensive second-order spell to perfection, it would increase his combat power by three times or more.

Then, when he cultivated the second attack type spell to perfection, the combat power bonus it brought to himself would be significantly reduced.

If it can be doubled, either the spell is particularly powerful, or there is a huge difference or complementarity between the two spells.

This is still the second gate, and as the number of similar spells cultivated to perfection increases to the third, fourth, or even more, the buff blessings on him will become less and less.

At this time, it is not cost-effective to spend a lot of time and energy on the pursuit of more spell perfection.

So, unless it's something very special, or something he hasn't done before, that fills a gap in a field, he'll reduce the amount of time and energy he devotes to it.

……

The fourth day of March.

Midday.

Among the Graceful Houses.

Meng Zhou was rare, scratching his ears and cheeks.

The study of "going back to the round light" was a little more difficult than he expected.

The difficulty is not in "learning", but in "understanding".

He has learned so many skills, and all the skills he has learned have been cultivated to perfection by him, bypassing the complicated appearance of the skills themselves and seeing the "truth" behind them.

Meng Zhou gradually had his own learning method in his heart.

Every time there is a new skill to learn, he does not learn it mechanically.

While learning, he will also understand.

To understand each step, to understand each change, their purpose and intent, he even found a lot of "artificial obstacles" that are undoubtedly false, or misleading, or to increase the threshold and difficulty.

Removing them has no effect on the skill's effect.

It even reduces difficulty, shortens cast time, increases power, and more.

In this way, he can always quickly grasp the core context of new skills, quickly grasp the essence of them, and successfully get started in a short period of time.

As he developed more and more skills, so did the power of this method.

It's like he has created a knife with his own hands, and with the blessing of a complete skill, he has become sharper and sharper, and his skills have become more and more proficient.

Facing those unfamiliar skills is like facing a "cow" waiting for him to dissect.

His dissection process has become more and more skilled.

But this time, this knife was blocked before the soul technique of "Returning to the Circle Light".

There are many places that he can dissect, but there are many more places that he cannot understand.

Faced with such a difficulty that he had never encountered before, Meng Zhou had two thoughts in his heart at war.

The first is to "avoid war", since you can't understand it, then give up this "knife to solve the cow" for the time being.

No matter what truth is hidden behind it, learning it first is serious.

When you reach perfection in your cultivation in the future, you can understand what you don't understand.

The second is to "face the battle", obviously holding a sharp blade, but doing some work of chopping melons and vegetables every day, what is the meaning of this?

The harder it is, the more you should rise to it.

The more difficult it is, the greater the harvest will be.

Otherwise, this so-called "unraveling knife" is just a joke for self-amusement, and it can't really solve the problem at all.

Once it hits a hard bone, it becomes a flower shelf.

These two thoughts were at war in Meng Zhou's heart, and Meng Zhou was still quite entangled in his heart.

This mentality is like encountering a math problem that is quite difficult, but feels that it is within the scope of one's ability.

I want to give up thinking and look at the answer directly.

I want to try to solve it myself.

If you really unravel it on your own, that wonderful experience, whoever tries it knows.

was entangled in his heart, Meng Zhou was suddenly stunned, and then slowly closed his eyes.

……

After more than three months of hard work, the Wangqi technique was finally cultivated by him to the consummation level.

At this moment, Meng Zhou paused the study of "Retrospective Yuanguang" and began to carefully experience the new insights and gains in his mind after the completion of the Wangqi Technique, as well as the improvement of the Divine Soul and even the Great Dao comprehension.

After a long time, Meng Zhou slowly opened his eyes again.

The moment he opened his eyes, there was a fleeting flash of light in his eyes.

Not an illusion.

Meng Zhou looked at the courtyard, in the soil, the aura and the leylines combined and affected each other.

Reiki gives spirituality to the land, and the land gives the aura roots, becomes more precipitated, and no longer drifts like rootless duckweed.

Each spiritual plant takes root in the soil and absorbs the nutrients and aura from it.

Every spiritual plant is a natural master of qi management.

Under their combing, the aura precipitated in the land flows and becomes active, so that the quality of the aura in the area has been significantly improved.

For the first time, Meng Zhou felt that this courtyard was a little narrow and a little monotonous.

If you are in an environment where species are richer and more diverse, how much of a new and real world can you see?

He dodged in a step, his figure disappearing from the house, and the next moment he stood on top of the high wall, looking out over the wider world beyond the courtyard.

It's a pity that Mikawa Plateau itself is very monotonous.

Within the field of vision, the thousand acres of spiritual fields that he opened up, because of the tenacious jade-hearted vermilion vines, it is worth taking a second look.

Other areas, even more drab than his courtyard.

However, Meng Zhou did not find it boring.

That kind of monotonous scene made his mood that was a little bad by "looking back to the round light" clear again.

After a long time, Meng Zhou returned to the elegant house again, ready to redevote himself to the study of "Returning to the Circle Light".

However, at the moment when Meng Zhou's mind was immersed in it again, his heart suddenly shook.

His eyes widened uncontrollably, and the expressions on his faces were rich and varied, like opening a mask shop.

Shocked and confused, incredible, and suddenly realized......

"I see, I see!" Meng Zhou whispered softly in his mouth, as if he had hysteria.

In "Tracing the Circle Light", many places that were originally incomprehensible made him grasp the key at once because of the consummation of the Qi Technique.

Returning to the Circle Light, like the Soul Shaking Technique, is a complete Divine Soul Technique, which does not involve mana.

Therefore, in the process of learning this technique, Meng Zhou's thinking always stayed on the soul.

It wasn't until the completion of the Qi Hope Technique that many new realizations were added to my mind, and there were some actual feelings that had just been verified by the eyes.

Meng Zhou suddenly discovered that although going back to Yuanguang was an outright soul technique.

However, his understanding of the heaven and earth outside his body, and the mobilization and use of the spirituality in them, were more subtle than all the spells he had cultivated.

Including the Qi Hope Technique, which he had just cultivated to perfection, compared to it, it was one rank behind.

The Qi Hope Technique is like equipping him with a pair of titanium alloy dog eyes, allowing him to see the world and get the essence of the improvement.

It's like a person's vision has expanded from the visible range to the extent that they can directly see infrared, ultraviolet, and even microwaves.

When his Qi Hope technique reached its perfection, there was no secret to him about the spiritual flow and changes in an area.

He could see where they came from, where they went, and the impact they had on the area.

Then, in "Retrospective Round Light", all the places he couldn't understand suddenly became clear.

In the terminology of the cultivation world, this soul art actually involves "cause and effect".

In other words, this soul technique, from observing the present of an area to tracing the various things that happened in the past, originally carried some meaning of tracing the cause of the effect.

From this, Meng Zhou thought of a concept in a previous life, saying that all the laws of the world have effects and must have causes, and there must be causes and effects.

Everything in the present is the cause and effect of all past causes and all future effects.

The past, present, and future are closely linked on the line of cause and effect, just like the gears that are tightly bound together by countless "causes" and "effects".

If you can exhaust everything in the present, then you can go back to the past and know the future.

Of course, in the previous life, which was the most lacking in the collision of ideas, this kind of concept was only one of many concepts, and it is not for nothing that the concept fundamentally rejects this concept.

Meng Zhou didn't care whether it was right or wrong, he only cared about one point.

Find the key to solving the doubts of "Retraced Circle" yourself.

Whether there is anyone who can exhaust everything now, Meng Zhou doesn't know, but the essence of "going back to Yuanguang" is to know the past through the "present" of a region.

"Regressing the Circle" is like building a strange processor out of a divine soul.

Take everything that he can see with the Perfection Level Qi Technique as a known condition, and go back to what happened in this area a moment ago, a moment ago, or even a long time ago.

Everything he didn't understand before had either a function of "collecting" or "analyzing".

Other cultivators who "retrace the Yuanguang" are equivalent to saving money to buy a calculator, and they can rely on it to calculate addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, input data, and get results.

It doesn't matter what's inside the shell or how it works.

Meng Zhou was good, and in the process of learning this technique, he also picked up the essence of its principle.

Before grasping the key, Meng Zhou's learning in this technique was very difficult, but now, it has suddenly become leaps and bounds.

Occasionally, if there is confusion, it will be transparent through a little test and confirmation through the consummation of the Qi Hope Technique.

Looking back at Yuanguang's learning progress, he is rapidly improving.

……

The seventh day of the third month. Morning.

Meng Zhou was immersed in the study of this magical soul technique, and a flying knowledge transmission made him have to temporarily interrupt this wonderful process.

When Meng Zhou flew to Kan Yue's courtyard, the other invited monks, similar to him, arrived here on their front and back feet.

In the crowd, in addition to a group of familiar faces, there was also a strange female cultivator, compared to Wei Xiao, whose eyes were as straight as a blade, this woman seemed very quiet.

When everyone came here, they would cast curious glances at her, but she always lowered her head slightly, sat upright, and looked at the ground in front of her toes, not knowing whether she was studying the texture of the floor tiles or wandering.

Looks like a pretty introverted person.

After everyone had basically arrived, Kan Yue pointed to the female cultivator and said, "I'll first introduce you to a new Daoist, Qiao Xin Qiao Daoyou from the Spirit Control Domain......

Every time a new monk joins the circle, Kan Yue will take the initiative to introduce them to everyone, which is also the regular operation of the meeting.

Meng Zhou, like the other monks, was still very relaxed.

However, the next moment, he almost lost his breath and almost coughed up on the spot.

"Oh, Qiao Daoyou is now arranged in Lu Daoyou's farm."

Qiao Yu, Qiao Xin, all surnamed Qiao, no problem, there are many people with the same surname in the world.

Moreover, one is from the Danqi Sect of the Danqi Domain, and the other is from the Spirit Control Domain, and it is impossible for Meng Zhou to link the two together with a single surname.

But coupled with Lu Quan's Zhuang Tian, he couldn't think about it anymore.

Not long ago, a man surnamed Qiao died in Lu Quan's farm.

Now, there is another person surnamed Qiao.

What kind of fate does this have to be?

If these two "Joe" have no connection at all, it is the most unreasonable and unlikely.

Moreover, it was very strange that she, a foreign monk, could take such an advantage and pick up a ready-made farmland.

At this point, Meng Zhou is not the only one who thinks so.

One of them expressed his doubts very directly:

"Sanchuan will arrange Lu Daoyou's Zhuang Tian to Qiao Daoyou? What about the spiritual field that was originally run by Lu Daoyou? ”

Kan Yue said: "That piece of spiritual field is now managed by Qiao Daoyou. ”

The monk looked at Qiao Xin and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything else, but I still have some doubts. ”

Lu Quan left halfway, very suddenly, except for the spirit plants in the courtyard that were divided by them under Lu Quan's entrustment, the spirit plants in the spiritual field were all taken care of by the Sanchuan Society since Lu Quan left.

Now it was arranged directly to a new foreign monk, and it was a little difficult to figure out how to think about it.

Why is she?!

seemed to feel everyone's attitude, Qiao Xin, who was already very quiet, seemed even more silent and quiet.

Inexplicably, there is a feeling that a well-behaved female classmate is being bullied collectively.

Kan Yue hurriedly said: "Qiao Daoyou is a very talented beast master, she came to Sanchuan Plateau just to want a quiet place to cultivate.

She didn't want to spend too much energy on cultivating wasteland, and she also made this attitude clear to the Sanchuan Society.

Oh, and she also provided the Sanchuan Society with a recipe for a beast pill that was exclusively for the Rainforest Black Toad.

This can speed up the recovery of the rainforest black toad, because of the beast pill formula she provided, the rainfall potential of all the rainforest black toads in Sanchuan Plateau has increased by more than 30%. ”

Hearing him say this, the doubts in everyone's hearts were solved.

It makes sense.

Many people even thought in their hearts that with Qiao Xin's help to the Sanchuan Society, it was far from enough to just share her with a ready-made farmland, there should be other returns, right?

Then, the crowd began to talk casually.

And because of Qiao Xin's dazzling performance, coupled with the fact that he was one of the few female cultivators in the party, everyone would pull him on intentionally or unintentionally, and they had the intention of taking the initiative to make friends.

Feeling such an atmosphere, the silent Qiao Xin also talked a little more.

Even, she is obviously a little afraid of society, and sometimes she gives people a feeling that she is trying to talk and communicate with everyone more.

This is not surprising either.

As a foreign monk, the circle is not large, if you take the initiative to close yourself, you will really be isolated in this Sanchuan Plateau.

Her willingness to participate in this meeting shows that she has a clear idea in her heart.

Therefore, the idea that she is trying to fit in with this circle seems normal.

There were not one or two people present who had similar thoughts, and this was originally a long-term purpose of this meeting.

Before you know it, this gathering has come to an end.

The people who were familiar with the road bowed their hands to Kan Yue, and then left straight away, and went back to their respective homes.

As soon as Meng Zhou flew out of Kan Yue's courtyard, a figure chased after him from behind.

"Zhuang Daoyou."

Meng Zhou turned his head to see that Qiao Xin had already flown over and followed him to a later position on his side.

"Qiao Daoyou." Meng Zhou smiled and nodded in response.

The two flew away silently like this for a while, and Qiao Xin bit her lip.

She thought that if she took the initiative to come up, Zhuang Daoyou would say a few more words to her, but she didn't expect it......

In the end, she broke the silence and said: "I don't think Zhuang Daoyou likes to talk much? ”

Meng Zhou said: "I have always been like this, I like to listen to everyone. ”

Qiao Xin nodded and said, "Well, I also heard Kan Daoyou mention it." ”

Meng Zhou was surprised: "You two still talked about me alone?" ”

He was innocently curious on his face, but he was already wary in his heart.

Qiao Xin said: "I just came to Sanchuan Plateau, but I have a lot of dealings with Sanchuan Society.

Kan Daoyou should be afraid that I won't be used to it, so he deliberately told me about your situation before you came over. ”

Meng Zhou nodded suddenly, but thought in his heart, the news was told to you by Kan Yue, but this topic should have been guided by you, right?

However, the other party's understanding of all the participants in the party, not him alone, also made him feel a lot more at ease.

also took the initiative to chat a few more words on the topic just now, and said:

"I think Qiao Daoyou, you don't like to talk very much, so you don't need to deliberately embarrass yourself.

Our party is very relaxed, just a place where everyone chats once in a while.

You also don't take it too seriously and put too much pressure on yourself.

If you want to talk more, it's good to listen to other people if you don't want to talk. ”

Qiao Xin was stunned and turned his head to look at Meng Zhou.

She didn't expect that this silent Zhuang Daoyou was not lonely and cold, and he could say such warm words, which was very different from the image she expected in her heart.

Meng Zhou felt her scrutiny and turned his head to look at her: "What's wrong?" ”

Qiao Xin smiled and said, "It's a bit unexpected, Zhuang Daoyou and I think a little different." ”

Meng Zhou nodded and smiled, but did not respond.

This time, Qiao Xin no longer felt the atmosphere awkward, but took the initiative to say: "The relationship between Zhuang Daoyou and Lu Daoyou should be good, right?" ”

Meng Zhou was curious: "Why do you say that?" ”

Qiao Xin said: "Because I heard Kan Daoyou say that in this gathering, you and he are the monks of the Qingxuan Domain, and the other monks are all from outside the Qingxuan Domain.

At the meeting just now, I had the feeling that Daoists from the same domain were obviously more familiar with each other.

I think they communicate a lot outside of this meeting, but also in private. ”

"Moreover, in addition to this factor, you and Lu Daoyou have been together for so long.

I think I should be able to move around a little on weekdays. ”

Meng Zhou nodded, then shook his head again, and said:

"Qiao Daoyou observed very carefully, and the relationship between the monks from the same foreign region was indeed closer.

Your experience is suitable for the other monks in the gathering, but it is not suitable for me and Lu Daoyou. ”

"Huh?" Qiao Xin looked at Meng Zhou suspiciously, as if asking, do you two want to be special?

Meng Zhou chuckled and said, "It's not just me and Lu Daoyou who are from the Qingxuan Domain, there are hundreds of them!" ”

"Ahh Qiao Xin snorted lightly, and then, as if he felt a little embarrassed for making a fuss.

The reason is simple, the foreign monks are a very small number of people in the Three Rivers Plateau, and they need to be in a group in order to avoid falling into an isolated and helpless situation.

But for this reason, it is not applicable to the monks of the Qingxuan Domain.

The "Zhuang Daoyou" and "Lu Daoyou" in front of him may have a good relationship, but it is definitely not because of the reason that they are out of the Qingxuan Domain together.

"Moreover, since you have heard Kan Daoyou introduce me in advance, you should know that I like to be quiet and alone, and concentrate on meditation.

Although he is next to Lu Daoyou, he really doesn't have much communication in private. ”

Hearing this, Qiao Xin nodded slightly.

Meng Zhou asked "curiously": "Why do you care about this?" ”

Qiao Xin gently smoothed the green silk between her temples and smiled embarrassedly.

"I don't like trouble, but I don't like to cause trouble to others.

I accidentally inherited Lu Daoyou's courtyard, and the Lingtian he ran has now become mine.

Although this is the arrangement of the Sanchuan Society, I am afraid that some Taoist friends who have a good personal relationship with him will feel uncomfortable, thinking that I am occupying the magpie's nest or something. ”

Meng Zhou listened to her explanation, waved his hand and said:

"Qiao Daoyou, your mind is too detailed, what do you care about what others think?

If someone is upset, let them go to Sanchuan Society, what do you care about so much?

Moreover, I believe that there is no Taoist friend with such a small belly. ”

Qiao Xin listened to his relief, nodded and said happily: "Hearing you say this, my heart is much more relaxed." ”

Saying that, the two have arrived near the former Lujiazhuang and the current Qiaojiazhuang, and they are going to separate.

Seeing Meng Zhou flying away by himself, without the intention of slowing down a little, Qiao Xin suddenly said:

"Zhuang Daoyou, you don't mind if I come to visit, do you?"

"Mind me, mind too much." Meng Zhou didn't look back, and the speed of the flight became faster, as if he was running away.

Looking at the figure of "Zhuang Sheng" in the distance, Qiao Xin couldn't help but laugh.

She knew that there were many monks who would take the initiative to stay away from some troubles and temptations, such as power, wealth, and ...... for the sake of the Great Dao in their hearts Female.

Therefore, Zhuang Daoyou's performance at this moment is not surprising, but there is a kind of natural sincerity.

However, her smile came and went faster.

Soon, her figure entered the courtyard and was obscured by the formation.

……

Just two days after this meeting, late at night.

Former Lujiazhuang, now Qiaojiazhuang, in the courtyard.

Qiao Xin stood quietly alone in the courtyard, holding a token in her hand.

With the infusion of her mana, there was a strange spirituality that spread outward like a wave.

She stood in the middle of the courtyard, just like that, motionless, like a beacon that constantly sent signals outward.

After a while, I suddenly saw the void in front of her, and a hand suddenly appeared.

Then, like a curtain, the void was gently pulled open by the hand.

Then, an illusory figure stepped out of it.

Qiao Xin hurriedly accepted the token and said respectfully: "Yan Envoy." ”

The Yan envoy in his mouth has an extremely extraordinary bearing, even if it is just a phantom, it puts tremendous pressure on Qiao Xin.

He stared at Qiao Xin and asked, "Are you Qiao's daughter?" ”

Qiao Xin said: "Yes." ”

"Which one?" Yan asked again.

"Spirit Domain......" Qiao Xin was about to return, but suddenly felt a pressure like a giant mountain enter the sea of knowledge, suppressing her soul.

Qiao Xin's expression immediately changed drastically, and he fell to his knees with a pop.

She suddenly realized that she had made a mistake, and quickly changed her words: "The little girl is from Wuling Hall. ”

As she spoke, the pressure that had been suppressed on her soul and almost killed her soul disappeared without a trace.

Yan Envoy's words continued to sound: "Remember, don't be led astray by these thieves, otherwise, merit is also a fault." ”

Qiao Xin hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Yes!" ”

Yan Yuanzun's attitude softened, and said, "Okay, it's not easy to call me out, let's say, what do you need me to do?" ”

Qiao Xin hurriedly said: "The little woman wants to know what happened here more than two months ago. ”

Yan Envoy Zun was stunned for a moment, and said unhappily: "That's it?" ”

Qiao Xin once again felt the pressure pass into the soul of the sea god.

She hastened to report:

"One of Qiao's sisters-in-law in Ziyuan Hall was killed in a well-planned and steady operation.

There was also a ninth-level foundation and two seventh-layer monks who had built the foundation, and all of them were alive and dead.

The clan was worried that we were being targeted by someone, so they sent me here to find out. ”

Yan Envoy Zun was stunned for a moment, playing with the taste: "This is to let you use your body as bait?" ”

Qiao Xin paused for a moment and replied respectfully, "Yes." ”

"Okay, I'm not loyal to Qiao's, I'll allow this."

Yan Zhizun's expression softened a lot suddenly, nodded in response to Qiao Xin's request, and asked, "Is there a more specific time?" ”

As he spoke, he seemed to feel that his image was somewhat weakened by these words, and he also explained.

"Qingxuanzong has made some sinister arrangements, as long as the aura of the outer region suddenly appears in the Qingxuan Domain, it will trigger their vigilance.

Therefore, I can only keep the power of the Divine Soul Projection at the level of the building base, once I cast the soul technique and go back to the old scene, I can't support it for too long.

The more accurate the timing, the better the effect. ”

Qiao Xin thought carefully for a while before he said slowly, "Eighty-four days ago. ”

"Are you sure?" Yan envoy respects the way.

"Sure." Qiao Xin nodded.

Yan Envoy bowed his head and stood motionless in place, no longer speaking.

After a while, an aura centered around him spread out to the surroundings.

Soon, the entire courtyard was encompassed by this rapidly expanding aura.

Then, the aura vanished.

It was also at this moment that Qiao Xin saw that the courtyard had changed significantly.

Above the courtyard, a phantus that was no different from the courtyard appeared.

Land, rocks, attics, ashrams......

Anything that is in this courtyard, even a fine gravel, has an accurate correspondence in this virtual shadow.

This kind of change, in the eyes of the cultivator, is very similar to the feeling that the cultivator's divine soul has been forcibly withdrawn from the sea of consciousness.

It's just that what this Yan envoy extracted was the "soul" of this courtyard.

After this "courtyard spirit" appeared, it paused for a moment, and then, it quickly changed.

Qiao Xin even saw her own figure, but in this phantom, she walked backwards, and flew backwards.

Moreover, the speed is fast and fleeting.

Then, there was a long quiet period, and the courtyard was empty, and nothing seemed to have changed.

When the figure appeared again, Qiao Xin's spirit was shocked, and all his attention was devoted to it, not daring to do the slightest.

And the regressive light and shadow have also slowed down a lot.

As a result, she clearly saw the scene where a flying sword flew out of a furnace and landed in the hands of a man.

No, she immediately realized that the current images were all played backwards.

So, the reality was that the man threw a flying sword into a furnace.

The regressing image slows down here for a moment, and then suddenly jumps into illusion.

This time, the Illusory Courtyard is no longer played backwards, but sequentially, but at a much faster speed than normal.

She saw the four of them silently break in, and a series of changes followed.

When the image was played to the courtyard with only a black steel armor standing alone in a pool of blood and mud, and a spike scurrying around it, the most profound image in her mind was the scene of four human bodies lining up to enter the range of the spike's attack and being strangled into bloody mud.

There is also a scene where all the loot is submerged in the dirt.

Witnessing these changes with her own eyes, her heart is filled with joy and regret.

Fortunately, this precious call was not wasted by her, and she really saw something unusual.

At the very least, she confirmed that the mission had failed, that there was indeed the intervention of a third party, and that part of the clan's speculation was correct.

It's a pity that from the beginning to the end, that third-party force was not revealed in the courtyard, but only skillfully pushed at the most critical time, completely reversing the situation.

She looked at the envoy next to her, hoping that he would trace it further and see if there were any clues.

But I saw that the image of Yan Envoy Zun was much more illusory than when it first appeared.

Yan Yuanzun didn't wait for her to speak, and had already taken the initiative to let the courtyard phantom go back to a longer timeline.

As a result, both of them saw a very ordinary clump of twigs of spirit bamboo, and shortly before this bloody battle, two strange changes in a short period of time.

And it was these two strange changes that attracted the man who was supposed to be in the ashram and made him hide and crouch in the courtyard, which is also the reason why the four people who quietly broke into the courtyard failed to make a contribution.

Because the moment they appeared in the courtyard, they had already fallen into the eyes of the owner of this room.

It can be said that it was precisely because of the warning of this thin bamboo that led to the failure of the mission and the tragic ending of all four of them turned into blood and mud.

Qiao Xin wanted to trace it deeper, but when he looked at Yan Envoy Zun next to him, his figure was so thin that it seemed to shatter with just a light poke.

The originally powerful, substantial coercion has also disappeared without a trace, as if a painting painted in the void with faint ink marks.

I don't know if the change in strength has affected the mentality, and the originally high-minded Yan Envoy Zun has also become kind and cordial.

also took the initiative to comfort him: "Don't worry, it shouldn't be the kind of situation you expected." ”

"Huh? How do you know? Qiao Xin wondered.

"The other party's style of acting, he doesn't want to be contaminated with any cause and effect." Yan Envoy Zun said lightly.

After a pause, he added: "Moreover, he has no special ill will towards your people, nor does he have any kindness to this master. ”

“？？？” Joshin.

Feeding people in a queue into a meat grinder, is this still not malicious?

Is this the thinking of the strong?

"In that case, then why did he intervene?" Qiao Xin asked.

"It should be your mission, bother him."

Yan Envoy Zun suddenly asked, "Where are you in the Qingxuan Domain now?" ”

"Mikawa Plateau." Qiao Xin said.

Yan Envoy bowed his head, with an inexplicable look in his eyes, and said, "You send a message to the clan, just let them lie quietly and don't do anything else." ”

"Huh?" Qiao Xin was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Yes!" ”

"Although you are bait this time, as long as you don't make trouble, there shouldn't be any danger.

It's just that since you've already appeared here, it's impossible for you to go back. ”

Qiao Xin listened carefully, but there were some doubts in his heart.

Did the envoy say this to her because he was concerned about her personal safety?

She herself thought it was ridiculous.

Yan Zhizun continued: "So, you can play your role with peace of mind, and then, at the right time, go and do something for me." ”

Qiao Xin was stunned for a moment, and realized in his heart, but immediately respectfully worshipped: "But listen to the orders of the envoy!" ”

"You go to Jade Lake." Yan envoy respects the way.

“？” Joshin.

"Keep a low profile and try not to attract attention." Yan Envoy continued.

“？” Joshin.

"I don't need you to do anything dangerous or out of the ordinary, there are many islands in Jade Lake, you can just run them all for me.

You will show me what the situation is on each island now, and keep it in mind. ”

Speaking of which, he emphasized again: "I want all the information, don't just focus on those foundations."

As long as you live on those islands, let alone practice qi, even a mortal can't leak it to me! ”

Finally, he said, "When you're done gathering this information, you can call me again!" ”

Qiao Xin finally woke up from a somewhat confused state, and wanted to tell him some current affairs news that might be important to Yan Yuanzun, but what he saw was the picture of Yan Yuanzun's figure breaking like foam.

"Envoy!" Qiao Xin suddenly shouted anxiously.

At the moment before the soul phantom shattered, Yan Yuanzun showed her a very friendly smile and bowed his head slightly.

“……”

Qiao Xin looked at the empty courtyard and only felt that his scalp was numb.

She suddenly felt that her body had become unusually heavy.

It was heavier than the moment when she knew she was going to be bait.

Doesn't Yan Envoy Zun know that the Qingxuan Domain has changed in the past few years?

Didn't he know that the Jade Lake in his mouth had now been transformed into a third-order spiritual land by the Qingxuan Sect?

Going there, there is no such thing as "low-key" at all.

Not to mention the monk above the foundation, he is a qi cultivator, as long as he goes there, he doesn't know how many pairs of eyes will be staring at him.

Turning around all the islands, didn't he know that the hundreds of large and small islands in the Jade Lake had undergone earth-shaking changes in the Great Transformation of the Third-Order Spirit Land?

In such a situation, how can I complete this inexplicable task?

Do you want her to find out the current situation of Jade Lake Immortal City?

Don't say that she is just a foundation, with the current situation of Jade Lake Immortal City, she is a knot, and she can't do such a thing.

So what should I do?

Set aside and ignore it?

She felt that she was borrowing all the courage of the entire Qiao clan, and she didn't have the guts.

After a while, the envoy will come over and explain it to him?

But when she thought of the other party's temperament that fluctuated with the change of strength, she didn't dare to think about how the envoy who appeared with a powerful posture would greet her.

"What should I do?" Qiao Xin squatted helplessly on the ground with his head in his hands.

……

After returning from the party, Meng Zhou continued to "retrace the Yuanguang" and learn and comprehend.

Because he has comprehended the core principle, there is no real barrier that can stop him.

Progress is flying.

It's just that the difficulty of this soul art itself is there, and he has to solve it one by one.

Its requirements for detail skills are far above that of Soul Shock.

Therefore, although his daily progress is visible to the naked eye, if you use percentages as progress, it is only a few points of progress every day.

Sometimes he used his brain too much, and Meng Zhou had to temporarily stop learning this soul art, make himself a pot of spiritual tea, and be distracted to learn other spells, so as to relieve his mentality and restore his state.

Yes, compared to the soul art of recalling Yuanguang, the process of learning other spells is completely about rest and relaxation.

In this process, the hurricane technique only took two breaks before it was mastered by Meng Zhou.

This was followed by Earth Wave Surge and Extreme Chill Finger, each spell that took three breaks.

The group of peaks that were the most different from Meng Zhou's previous cultivation skills roared and never reached the entrance, and they only took five breaks.
