Chapter 344: Preparation
Hearing "Qi Huangzi" say this, the ancestors of Mingnan and the four ancestors of the Danqi Sect all had joy on their faces.
Obviously, that's what they're worried about.
It can be clearly seen that compared with the Qingxuan Sect, the Jinding Sect, and the Hehuan Sect, they have a greater thirst for the Void God Crystal.
However, for his decision, some people are happy, and some people are unhappy.
The ancestors of Qingxuanzong and Hehuan Sect did not dismantle the platform openly, but only frowned, but one of the ancestors of Jinding Sect directly raised objections.
"Now that we know the crisis of the Star Palace, and we have a way to deal with it, it is natural to do it immediately, how can there be any reason to take the initiative to postpone and sit idly by?
You must know that the blow of the Star Palace may fall at any time! ”
The value of the Void God Crystal has a more direct effect on the several ancestors of the Spirit Control Sect and the Danqi Sect.
In comparison, for the other three sects, the effect of the Void God Crystal was not so immediate.
Of course, for the three sects, the value of the Void God Crystal is naturally there, and it is also huge.
It is even more impossible for them to sit back and watch the Spirit Control Sect and the Dan Weapon Sect enjoy such resources exclusively.
It's just that when the "Crisis of the Star Palace" fell with a bang, the priorities of the various sects towards the two showed differences.
This time, in the face of the doubts of the ancestor of the Jinding Sect, Meng Zhou did not end up in person, and an ancestor of the Danqi Sect took the initiative to stand up and refute it.
"'Qi Huangzi' Daoist friends have made it very clear that we not only have to deal with the immediate problems, but also save as many chips as possible for future counterattacks.
Otherwise, even if you save your life for the time being, the situation will become more and more embarrassing in the future, until there is no room for maneuver. ”
"Even if there is a real risk, in order to reverse this dilemma, I think it is worth taking."
Mingnan Ancestor said on the side:
"The situation is nowhere near as dangerous as everyone thinks, and now we are scaring ourselves.
If you think about it carefully, the activation of those secret forces is only a recent thing.
They do so for a purpose.
So what is their purpose?
I think it's just two.
One is to muddy the Five Domains, blinding our sight, so that we can't lock them in the first place.
Again, taking advantage of the opportunity of these five domains becoming chaotic, they can be more active, collect more information about us, and report this information to the Star Palace.
The Star Palace is certainly powerful, but we are also not muddy.
After so many years in business, do they dare to come in without knowing anything?
After all, it takes some time to get to the bottom of us. ”
This analysis of the ancestors of Mingnan not only made several ancestors of the Danqi Sect stunned.
Even the cultivators of the Qingxuan Sect, the Hehuan Sect, and the Jinding Sect did not object, and they recognized it in their hearts.
"And whether it is the first purpose or the second purpose, there is actually the same message, that is, the Star Palace has not decided to do it to us immediately!
So, as long as we behave as always, as if we didn't find anything, we should be safe for the next three to five months. ”
"What's more, although we won't take action against these four secret forces immediately, now that they have been exposed, we can naturally put all their actions under our sight.
Whenever they have any unusual behavior, we can be the first to detect it and react immediately. ”
At this point, all the cultivators were silent.
After a pause, the ancestor of Mingnan, whose eyes swept around the cultivators, said slowly:
"If you still don't think it's appropriate, after a month and a half, just a few of us can go over and find a place to hide.
After we get the Void God Crystal, let's go together to eradicate those four forces. ”
Hearing his suggestion that he had considered so "thoughtfully" for them, the cultivators, who were originally silent, spoke almost at the same time: "No! ”
Want to leave us alone and eat alone?
No way!
In the end, the parties finally reached a difficult agreement.
An ancestor of the Jinding Sect with a gloomy face said:
"In that case, let's come to Qingxuanzong again in a month."
Immediately, the four ancestors of the Golden Ding Sect said goodbye and left.
Seeing this, all the cultivators reacted one after another, said goodbye to each other, and quickly dispersed.
Even the five ancestors of Qingxuanzong, Qingyao and Qingye, did not stay on Qiyun Peak for long, and left with the other monks.
The original action, everyone naturally had no intention of continuing.
What's more, after so many years of exploration and searching, fourteen altars have been found, and according to the distribution of one third-order evil vein and one altar, there are at most two that have not been discovered.
Although it is not complete, it is not a big deal.
And the next operation is a month and a half later.
With such precious time, it is naturally impossible for everyone to let it go to waste.
Now they are all rushing to the sect with the mentality of arranging "future affairs", and they are desperately rushing to the sect.
Once the operation against those four hidden forces begins, no one can predict what will happen next.
But what is certain is that the five third-order spirit veins that the five sects are now guarding will no longer be safe.
If they dare to stay in the mountain gate and practice, a sword may fly and cut their heads at any point.
Will the Five Sects, which have been prominent for more than a hundred years, continue to exist?
How long will it be around?
In such a situation, of course, they have to rush back to make some arrangements.
As for how the five ancestors would be arranged, Meng Zhou didn't ask, and now he didn't have the heart to pay attention to this.
After all the five ancestors who had gathered had left the group, Qi Yunfeng became quiet again.
Meng Zhou's heart was happy, and he also began his preparations.
He proposed to rob a batch of Void God Crystals first, and then go to the Tiger Whiskers of the Star Palace.
The reasons given are only for the purpose of convincing others, but they cannot convince him.
For him, the reason for doing so was very simple-
Before forming a group to go to the "Tiger Whiskers" of the Star Palace, he needs some free time to make some preparations.
For him, this wave of changes related to the Star Palace also caught him a little off guard.
So much so that there is a slight lack of preparation.
As for how effective a month's preparation can be in the face of a power of this level in the Star Palace, for other monks, it may not be useful, but Meng Zhou is very sure, "Very useful!" ”
……
Meng Zhou came to the area where spirit fruit trees were planted on the side of the peak, and he first moved a third-order high-grade spirit fruit tree located above the leyline node to the side, vacating the best and most suitable spiritual land for planting on the top of Qiyun Peak.
Then, three spirit lotus seeds appeared in his hand.
One of them, the color is as white as jade, with a milky warm luster spreading, and as this luster diffuses into the surrounding void, wisps of chill escape, as if along with these lusters, seeps into the surrounding void;
A rough look, the whole body is pitch black, but if you look closely, you can find that on the surface of this pitch-black spirit seed, there is a little bit of spiritual light faintly flickering, like mischievous blinking stars in the dark night.
The last spirit lotus seed is the size of a pigeon's egg, with a golden body, but the tip is faintly showing a little pink. If you look closely, there seem to be golden scales on the outer wall of this golden spirit seed.
But it wasn't scales, it was lotus petals. It's just that this shape is a natural change formed by the golden brilliance of the outer wall attracted by the deep spirituality of the spirit seed, and it flows like water waves, spinning up and down, and it looks like there are faint, sparkling waves floating on the surface of the spirit seed.
These three spiritual lotus seeds were the Cold Extreme Ice Lotus Spirit Seed that he obtained through the Deacon Hall of Qingxuanzong, the Blooming Star Lotus Spirit Seed, and the Gold Powder Double Lotus Spirit Seed that Yin Youyi and Mu Hanyu had spawned at a great price.
The first two spirit lotus seeds obtained from the Qingxuan Sect were all third-order spirit seeds.
And the gold powder double lotus spirit seed obtained from Yin Youyi and Mu Hanyu is even more special, and the current quality is not inferior to the other two third-order supreme spirit seeds, and its potential is even higher than them.
Meng Zhou's gaze scanned back and forth over the three Spirit Lotus Seeds, and finally, it landed on the Cold Extreme Ice Lotus Spirit Seed.
This spirit lotus is a cold ice spirit lotus that is too pure to be pure, and he is more familiar with it than the other two spirit lotuses.
If you choose it, you will inevitably get more gains.
After accumulating more experience, it is not too late to cultivate the other two spirit lotuses.
After choosing, Meng Zhou first put the other two spirit lotus seeds into the spirit gourd space.
Holding the Cold Pole Ice Lotus Spirit Seed in his hand, the slightest wisp of chill penetrated deep into his palm, spreading all the way along his arm to his body.
Such a spirit seed has a powerful lethality for a foundation building monk, and these chills can even freeze a foundation building monk to death.
However, for Meng Zhou, this also made him feel a little "excited", similar to a mortal holding a snow ball in winter.
When the chill contained in the Cold Pole Ice Lotus Spirit Seed spontaneously infiltrated and spread to Meng Zhou's body, a wisp of vitality seeped into the depths of the Cold Pole Ice Lotus Spirit Seed from Meng Zhou's body.
Soon, the dormant vitality of this third-order supreme spirit seed was awakened, and there were immediately signs of taking root and sprouting.
As soon as Meng Zhou's thoughts moved, the spirit seed in his palm flew out and landed in the spiritual land in front of him, which happened to be located at the leyline node.
When a little bit of a delicate spike like ice jade poked out from the spirit lotus seed, a drop of the third-order middle grade "Green Lotus Soul Marrow" was already hanging in the void directly above it, like an infusion, little by little infiltrated into the tip of the bud.
With the help of this drop of green lotus essence, the cold ice lotus seedlings that had just broken the ground were growing at an extremely fast speed, as if blowing up a balloon.
The first order is lower, the first is the middle grade, and the first order is the upper grade......
In the blink of an eye, this Cold Pole Ice Lotus seedling had already passed the first stage and entered the second order.
Second-order lower grade, second-order middle grade, second-order upper grade......
When this Blue Lotus Soul Essence was all absorbed by this Cold Pole Ice Lotus, it had already crossed the threshold of the second to third order, and had the quality of the third order.
At this moment, the Cold Pole Ice Lotus seemed to have barely passed the "juvenile stage", and only a few half-sized light green lotus leaves were propped up in the sky above the spiritual land of the leyline node like an umbrella cover.
The Cold Pole Ice Lotus in this state now has a much greater appetite by then.
A drop of the third-order mid-grade green lotus spirit essence, the rich vitality in it was quickly absorbed cleanly.
However, compared to the first and second order, its growth rate has also slowed down a lot.
The effect of a drop of third-order mid-grade green lotus spirit essence on this cold ice lotus is equivalent to its growth and accumulation for two years.
It wasn't until the Fourteenth Earth Blue Lotus Soul Essence was absorbed by it that this Cold Pole Ice Lotus completed the accumulation of the third-order lower grade and advanced to the third-order middle grade level.
Compared with the time of the third order, in addition to the improvement of spiritual quality, the lotus stem has become taller, the lotus leaf has become larger, and the chill emitted is more, and that's it.
For the current Cold Pole Ice Lotus, a drop of the third-order mid-grade green lotus spirit essence is equivalent to its growth and accumulation in one year.
In order to allow him to complete the accumulation of the third-order middle grade and advance to the third-order upper grade level, Meng Zhou continuously invested thirty-three drops of the third-order mid-grade Qinglian spirit essence.
At this moment, the Cold Pole Ice Lotus is like a source of the Cold Pole.
The whole ice lotus can be seen in the emerald green color, but this emerald green seems to be surrounded by thick ice.
Whether it is a lotus stem or a lotus leaf, only the deepest part of the emerald green color shines through the "ice", showing a brilliant color in the natural light and shadow.
It is only at this moment that the lotus stems and leaves finally grow to their peak.
Now, the efficiency of the Cold Polar Ice Lotus devouring the essence of the Green Lotus is very exaggerated.
Although two drops of the third-order mid-grade Blue Lotus Soul Essence were equivalent to a year's natural growth, almost between breaths, a drop of the third-order mid-grade Blue Lotus Soul Essence would be absorbed by it cleanly.
Drop after drop of the green lotus spirit essence was like a string of beads and submerged into the cold ice lotus, and a Xuanbing lotus flower like ice and jade slowly opened.
Then, this ice lotus turned into an ice jade lotus canopy.
When seventy drops of the Green Lotus Soul Essence were submerged into the Cold Pole Ice Lotus, this Spirit Lotus finally completed the accumulation of the third-order top-grade and advanced to the third-order top-grade level.
In the ice jade lotus canopy, there are three lotus seeds like ice jade.
Meng Zhou put the three lotus seeds into the spirit gourd space, and his mind was all focused on the spirit lotus in front of him.
Every drop of the essence of the green lotus's life is rich in vitality that comes from him, like a wire.
A total of one hundred and eighteen drops of the third-order mid-grade green lotus spirit essence was put into it, like an indestructible "steel strand", firmly binding this spirit lotus to him.
Even if he hadn't "turned into a lotus body" and was still in the state of a spiritual lotus, Meng Zhou felt that he could still control it as if he were controlling his own body.
As his mind changed, this spiritual lotus swayed and changed at will.
At a certain moment, Meng Zhou's mind moved, and a transparent crystal the size of an adult's fist suddenly appeared in the sky above the ice-like lotus canopy.
The next moment, this crystal suddenly shot out like a cannonball, and soon flew out of the top of Qiyun Peak, and finally smashed into a sea of clouds area beyond the cliff.
"Bang"
With a soft sound, the crystal exploded.
In an instant, the sea of clouds disappeared.
Just because as that crystal exploded, the void within the range seemed to be frozen with a layer of ice, becoming like a piece of crystal glass.
And then, shattered.
When shattered, the void was clean and empty. (End of chapter)
