……

In the past, Meng Zhou had this kind of speculation, and in this divine soul armor, there was a high probability that there was still a remnant of Yan Zhuang's unused divine soul power.

But it was never found.

This time, with the help of the repeated cleaning of the great power of life creation in the process of life gestation, the camouflage on the surface was finally completely washed away, revealing the true face inside, allowing Meng Zhou to see the existence of these remnant divine soul powers.

And this is not the whole of this peculiar, quasi-sea space.

At first, Meng Zhou's attention was attracted by the most conspicuous divine soul power that was like a thick cloud and rain cluster, and he didn't pay attention.

When he took his mind away from this "cloud and rain mass" and began to explore other places, he found that there were three small spots in the depths of this quasi-sea space.

On closer inspection, they are not speckles, but more like tiny holes that have been pierced in this space by a thin needle.

It is precisely because of their existence that they have suddenly destroyed the stability and unity of this quasi-sea space.

It's like a perfect painting without any flaws, with three holes that have been maliciously burned out with a cigarette.

Through these holes, a hidden world hidden deeper into the surface of the painting is revealed.

There is no doubt that these three tiny holes were not burned out by any cigarette butts, but were "washed" by the secret method of "bead tire washing spirit".

There are actually two layers of camouflage in this Divine Soul Armor, the most superficial layer, Meng Zhou has long known, but he can't see through it.

But behind the surface, there is a deeper layer of camouflage.

This is not only a protection for the "inner layer", but also a deadly trap.

As soon as the Divine Soul Armor was unsealed, a strong vicious aura emanated from it, directly causing a serious distortion of the big demon cub that was closely fused with it and was in the midst of rapid development.

The reason is that this power, which was originally tightly isolated in a more "inner layer", has been "leaked" due to the appearance of these three pores.

Meng Zhou's divine sense peered through a thin hole.

After just one glance, there was a slight tingling pain at the level of the divine soul.

Fortunately, Meng Zhou had already taken precautions against this, and this divine sense had been cut off by him long before he penetrated in, and it was used as a stone to ask for directions.

Meng Zhou saw that the subtle divine consciousness that had been discarded was like a flammable lamp grass that turned into ashes in an instant the moment it penetrated into the fine hole.

This fierce reaction made Meng Zhou, who was onlookers, feel a phantom pain from the divine soul level.

He was completely unmoved, his consciousness completely immersed in the intense shock of that hurried glance.

This is a much larger sea-like space.

This space is crowded with thick clouds and rain like thick ink, and black raindrops may drip down at any time, like a black ocean floating above the void.

What is accumulated here is also the power of the divine soul.

Both the quality and the quantity are far beyond the remaining lump of Yanzhuang.

But that's not the biggest difference.

The essential difference between the two "clouds and rain clusters" is that the power of the divine soul is crowded in this space, which is full of a sense of dead silence and decay.

Looking at them, Meng Zhou immediately had a thought in his heart: "Could it be that the storage of divine soul power still has a shelf life?" Could it be that these have undergone some kind of deterioration because of the expiration of storage? ”

Soon, Meng Zhou shook his head in his heart.

It's just a joke, and it's not enough to draw real conclusions.

Meng Zhou was not in a hurry.

He believed that no matter how many secrets were hidden here, under the washing of the great power of life creation, it would eventually reveal its original form little by little.

Those hidden dangers that are extremely dangerous for him now will also be washed away little by little in the process.

After the sacrifice and contribution of several third-order demons, the secret method of bead fetal soul washing completed the accumulation of the Xiaocheng stage and advanced to the realm of Dacheng.

In the depths of the space of the Divine Soul Armor Sea of Consciousness, the "spots" that were originally just sparsely existed, as the litters of big demon cubs deformed into sarcomas during the development process, the number became more and more numerous, and the size of each "spot" became larger and larger little by little.

This sea-like space is like being stained with more and more stains.

At this moment, Meng Zhou paused his pace, went back to Sanchuan Plateau, and returned to Wumenghai again after a few days of retreat.

In any case, the practice cannot be delayed.

He also considered finding a suitable spiritual place in the Umeng Sea to use as a temporary retreat, but after only thinking about it, he gave up.

With his speed, even if there was a distance of more than 100,000 miles between Wumeng Sea and Sanchuan Plateau, it would not take too much time.

Finding a suitable spiritual place nearby is easy to say, but it will only take more time and energy to arrange it into a temporary cave house that suits his heart.

Moreover, the Umeng Sea is not in peace now.

He could often see the scene of the Spirit Commander cooperating with the Qingxuanzong Jie Dan and fighting fiercely with the third-order demon.

"It's better not to get into trouble."

……

It's the end of the year in the blink of an eye.

After the sacrifice and dedication of one big demon after another, and the continuous distortion of one big demon cub after another, the sea space that stored the remaining power of Yan Zhuang's divine soul has been "washed" out of two huge "holes".

The "inner" space, which was originally hidden and did not find the slightest clue in the life of Zhong Yanzhuang, has been fully revealed.

The color of the huge clouds and rain that was originally thick as if ink was going to drip ink anytime and anywhere in the two holes was noticeably lighter.

It's really not easy.

Seeing that the end of the year was approaching, Meng Zhou once again ended his life of "birth" that lasted for more than 20 days and returned to the Aurora Cave Mansion to welcome the most important retreat of the year.

At the end of the retreat, the seventy-year-old Meng Zhou left Tianqi Mountain, but instead of going to the Wumeng Sea again, he went to Kurosawahara.

It's not that he doesn't want to continue his activities in the Wumeng Sea, but it's that after his "scourge" for several months, there are fewer and fewer suitable big demon targets.

Unless he lowered his standards and spent more time looking for a new Great Demon Mother, otherwise, transferring from the Umeng Sea to Kurosawahara was a choice he had to make.

It's not that the third-order demons used by Wumeng Sea as the "birth" mother have been destroyed by him, but their density is rapidly decreasing.

In order for him to find a suitable "birth" mother, he must spend more time searching.

The more time passed, his comprehension of the "pearl fetus cleansing spirit" became more and more profound, and the level of mastery became more and more profound, but the time he really spent on "giving birth" became less and less, and the time he devoted to searching became more and more.

In this case, moving to Kurosawahara is the best option.

In terms of area, Kurosawahara is the largest of the three third-order evil veins.

Although the same area of wasteland has the potential to accumulate life is not as good as that of the sea area, the Kurosawa Plains are larger in scope, and secondly, the wasteland is only a part of the Kurosawa Plains, and it is also filled with a large number of huge swamps, deep pools, poisonous miasma canyons, continuous mountains, etc., and the number of third-order demons living here is not less than that of the Wumeng Sea.

In addition, most of the demon beasts that live here are beasts and birds, and the restrictions are much less than those of Wumeng Sea, and the threat to cultivators is also greater.

Such characteristics have even shaped the cultivation pattern of the entire Qingxuan Domain.

On the whole, the north and east directions of the Qingxuan Domain are more desolate than the west and south directions, the degree of development is lower, and the activities of cultivators are also less, the biggest reason is that Tianqi Mountain is in the north, and Kurosawa is in the east.

After the outbreak of the beast tide, at the level of the wrestling between the Monk and the third-order demon, the situation in Tianqi Mountain was the most optimistic, and the situation in Wumeng Sea and Kurosawahara was similar.

At the level of Qi cultivation and foundation building and first- and second-order demon beasts, the situation in Wumeng Sea is the most optimistic, followed by Tianqi Mountain, and finally Kurosawahara.

From the lowest-end competition to the top-level wrestling, Kurosawahara's situation is the most unoptimistic.

Even, in order to weaken the impact of the beast tide in the direction of Kurosawahara as much as possible, under the overall coordination of the Qingxuan Sect, the cultivation world took the initiative to give up some areas and dilute the impact of the beast tide as much as possible by increasing the spatial distance.

Compared to the demon beasts of Tianqi Mountain and Wumeng Sea, many of the demon beasts in Kurosawahara have a peculiar attribute - disgusting.

In particular, those demon beasts born in swampy areas are not only ugly, but also often master some special natural abilities, or release a foul-smelling and long-lasting poisonous stench, or they can turn a good piece of land into a puddle of black poop, splashing and flying.

The third-order demon was even able to harness it and make it turbulent like a wave.

On the other hand, compared to other types of demon beasts, the Spirit Commander has significantly less research on this type of demon beasts, and there is a great lack of experience.

If they are regarded as materials, the utilization rate is much lower than that of other types of demon beasts.

The success rate of refining into spirit puppets and corpse golems is also lower.

Even if they are refined, their combat power is even lower than that of other types of demon beasts of the same level.

All in all, the value for money is extremely poor.

From the point of view of transformation efficiency, it is obviously not cost-effective to focus on this place at this moment of military tension.

For all these reasons, compared to the full swing in other areas, the response to the animal tide around Kurosawahara is a bit perfunctory.

Among them, the first and second demon beasts born in the swamp area, as well as the third-order demons, are the most "nourishing".

Unless they are forced to do so, they must be killed, and no one is interested in spending their limited combat power and physical strength on them.

For Meng Zhou, none of this was a problem.

The worst conditions in the swamp were unbearable for the monk, and there was nothing in his way.

Under the escape of the five elements, he can shuttle and jump between the real world and the real world at will.

The swampy areas of the real world can be disgusting, and staying for a long time can make people feel all kinds of discomfort.

But from the perspective of the real world, it doesn't matter if it's a swamp or not, everything in the real world is one.

And the Spirit Control Army and Qingxuanzong's "keeping hands" on this type of big demon also created better conditions for him.

From his point of view, the big demon in the swamp area is the most to his liking.

- Because they tend to be larger and more vigorous, as "giving birth to mothers", they are able to persist in giving birth to more "sarcomas" at the same level.

……

Umeng Sea.

Meng Zhou left quietly, just as he came quietly.

But the waves he brought up have just begun.

As early as the end of last year, the Spirit Commander and the Qingxuanzong Jiedan, who were active on the front line, vaguely discovered some strange things.

The concrete embodiment of this strangeness is that the frequency of their encounters with third-order demons is slowly changing.

Originally, it would happen once every three days or so, but it gradually became three and a half days, or even once every four days.

At the same time, every time they encountered, the number of third-order demons was slowly decreasing.

Although this change is also very small, when the first signs appear, there is only one or two ends of the difference.

Not much has changed.

But for those who have been dealing with them all year round and have a tight heartstring all the time, any slight change can attract their attention.

However, when this clue is just revealed, it is not long enough, it may be a random change caused by some unknown factors, and everyone is not too sure, but the law of change is silently remembered.

With the turn of the year, this change not only did not disappear, but became more obvious, and the monks who were active in the front line finally stopped hesitating.

Soul Island.

Since the last time he obtained a new Soul Master Inheritance at the Professionals Association, Ming Nan Ancestor had left everything behind and devoted himself to enlightenment.

On this day, he had to withdraw from this state of total immersion, looked at the group of monks waiting at the door, frowned and said unhappily:

"What the hell is going on?"

After coming back last time, he gave a special explanation, don't call yourself if you have nothing to do, even if you have something, try to solve it yourself.

He has been able to get to this point, and he has long understood a simple truth, cultivation always comes first.

Whether it was the Spirit Tamper Sect in the past, or the Spirit Harness Army now, the purpose of their existence was to make his cultivation easier, not the other way around.

When one of them said that it was related to the beast tide, his displeasure hung directly on his face.

If he was willing to cooperate with the Spirit Commander to act together, the efficiency of killing the third-order demon would undoubtedly have a huge increase.

If he was willing to devote all his time in this area in the past few years, maybe the situation in Wumenghai would have been reversed long ago.

It's not as bad as it is now.

But would he do that?

——Look at Qingxuanzong, since the outbreak of the beast tide, the five elders of Qingxuan haven't even shown their faces, because there is a spirit army to fill the pit, and many of Qingxuanzong's knots are also in retreat and practice in the mountain gate, ignoring the changes in the outside world.

Don't they know that as long as many people work together, the situation will change dramatically?

Not to mention the five elders of Qingxuan, it is "Qi Huangzi", and the same is true.

Thinking of this, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Soon, however, this unhappiness was replaced by another emotion.

He looked at a Qingxuanzong Jiedan next to him, and said in astonishment: "Could it be that you have sent some other tasks to clear the big demons, and you have quietly done it without us?" ”

The man smiled bitterly:

"Uncle Shi, how is this possible!

What's more, even if there is such a task, there will always be movement, right?

We act all over the Wumeng Sea every day, but if there is any movement, it is impossible to hide from our eyes! ”
