Spiritual power comes from the world.

The creatures born in this heaven and earth are nourished by heaven and earth, and at the same time they are governed by heaven and earth, as if every life has an invisible "shackle" given by heaven and earth in its body from the moment it is born.

Because of this basic relationship, the "harmony" between the practitioner and the spiritual power is very deep, and the results are both good and bad.

On the plus side, this gives the practitioner a ladder that can be climbed up the ladder and continue to grow.

The more spiritual power absorbed and refined, the higher the quality, the more the invisible "shackles" around the body will become looser.

As a result, life grows, becomes more and more powerful, and lives longer and longer.

These are all positive sides, but this also brings a "negative" side.

The biggest disadvantage of this is that the life level of the cultivator is tightly bound to the upper limit of the spiritual power that can be called.

For example, the spiritual power that a Qi cultivator can invoke is basically determined to die in the first-order category;

The spiritual power that the foundation building monks could call on was basically within the second-order category;

The spiritual power that the Jiedan monk could invoke was basically determined to die in the third-order realm.

Of course, this restriction is not absolute, such as some special talismans, runic treasures made by monks who have paid a lot of money, or spirit golems that can act independently...... These can circumvent this limitation to a certain extent.

But it's still very troublesome.

This is also the reason why Meng Zhou attaches so much importance to the Blossom Dew Star Lotus clone.

Because theoretically, as long as the number of Star Lotus clones is higher, the more star power he can invoke.

Upper limit?

Theoretically, there is no upper limit.

Of course, on the one hand, it is impossible for Meng Zhou to have an "unlimited" Qinglian Essence of Life;

On the other hand, even by increasing the number of Dew Star Lotus clones and expanding the scale of the clone formation, the pressure caused by continuous refinement and continuous improvement of quality can be continuously distributed and diluted.

But after all, the Star Lotus clone is only a third-order best clone.

The pressure released by the improvement of the quality of star power is not a linear growth, but an exponential growth.

Under the premise that the number of Dew Star Lotus clones will only increase linearly according to the birth speed of the Blue Lotus Spirit Marrow, the quality of star power that can be supported by the third-order top-grade Dew Star Lotus clones as the cornerstone will still be restricted by objective reality.

It can't really be "unlimited".

But that's enough.

At the very least, this provided Meng Zhou of the eighth layer of the Jiedan with a relatively simple and easy-to-implement method of invoking the fourth-order power.

After having such confidence, the pressure brought to him by the Yuanying Monk suddenly weakened a lot.

After realizing the most basic fourth-order star power invocation through the five Spreading Star Lotus clones, Meng Zhou had already begun to design more Diverse Star Lotus clones to participate, with a larger scale and more complex functions, in his mind.

If there are six Dew Star Lotus clones, how should the formation be arranged?

If the number of doppelgangers continues to increase, what if there are nine? What about twelve?

If the number of the Blossom Dew Star Lotus clones continues to increase, thirty-six, forty-nine, eighty-one...... Or even a hundred and eight?

With the blessing of the Tongming Dao Body, and the profound Dao of the Fu Array as his arm, Meng Zhou felt that his thinking was more active than ever.

When the number of the Blossom Dew Star Lotus clones had not exceeded the number of the ten fingers of both hands, one new formation after another had a complete and detailed "formation diagram" plan almost the moment he remembered it.

Moreover, there is more than one, each with its own tendencies.

Some have the shortest formation time and the fastest efficiency; Some exert the greatest power...... And so on.

But when the number of Blossom Star Lotus clones increased to double digits, the "Array Diagram" began to become complicated.

When he began to think, one by one the spirit lotus clones flickered and jumped in his mind, like an imaginary ape that was becoming more and more difficult to subdue.

Every time he "subdued", Meng Zhou could feel a huge consumption of mental energy.

More and more time is consumed.

Considering that the timing was wrong, Meng Zhou decisively stopped continuing to go deeper, and temporarily fixed the "doppelganger formation" at the level of "nine doppelgangers".

Therefore, Meng Zhou cultivated four more Blossom Star Lotus clones.

Because of the previous continuous consumption, there were only 147 drops of the third-order mid-grade Qinglian Soul Essence left.

In order to cultivate these four Blossoming Star Lotus clones, Meng Zhou consumed another 177 drops of the third-order high-grade Blue Lotus Soul Essence after consuming all the third-order mid-grade Blue Lotus Soul Essence.

In this way, after consuming all the third-order middle-grade Qinglian spirit marrow, plus the input of 177 drops of third-order high-grade green lotus spirit marrow, Meng Zhou obtained a cold ice lotus clone, nine dew star lotus clones, and a gold powder double lotus.

After all of this, three days passed.

After that, Meng Zhou spent another ten days completing the first retreat of the new year.

On the tenth day of the first month, late at night.

[Repair to progress +300, 1625/10,000 on the eighth floor of Yudan;

Hanhai Mingyue True Picture +10,800, Master 76,800/160,000】

After leaving the customs, Meng Zhou thought about the next plan in his heart.

At this moment, there is still more than half a month before the agreed time.

Meng Zhou also continued to refine the first thought that popped up in his mind after learning the news of the change in the Star Palace.

Meng Zhou spent several days carefully and repeatedly scrutinizing it in his heart.

Then, with a thought in his mind, he summoned Bai Zhi, who was sleeping in the sea of his consciousness.

Bai Zhi, who was lying on the stone couch beside Meng Zhou, woke up with her eyes open, and when she just woke up, she looked at the surrounding environment, and was a little puzzled at first, but after seeing Meng Zhou, she immediately showed a sudden look.

"How long did I sleep this time?" Bai Zhi asked.

Meng Zhou smiled: "It's not too long. ”

Then, Meng Zhou told her some important information.

Meng Zhou did not hide from Bai Zhi the news that the Star Palace was likely to have a Yuan Infant born and was about to re-emerge from the mountain.

However, when sharing this information with her, Meng Zhou was also carefully paying attention to the changes in Bai Zhi's expression.

After hearing this information, Bai Zhi was a little shocked at first, and then turned worried.

In her cognition, although she is a "remnant of the Yan family" and can barely be related to the Star Palace, she has never substituted herself into the role of "Star Palace Closer".

With a worried face, she asked a question that made Meng Zhou a little stunned.

She looked around and said, "So, we won't be able to stay in this Qi Yunfeng for long?" ”

"Huh?" Meng Zhou was a little surprised, the question she was most concerned about was actually this, but she still nodded and said, "Well, yes." ”

Bai Zhi sighed and asked, "What about ...... Where do we go next? ”

Meng Zhou shook his head and said, "It's not decided yet...... What is your opinion? ”

Bai Zhi shook her head, "I don't have any opinions, just take your idea, I hope that the next foothold can stay for as long as possible." ”

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sigh again, and seemed to be a little lamented by the "upheaval and displacement" over the years.

From her point of view, there should be such feelings.

I thought that after falling in love with this "destined man", I could live a leisurely life with peace of mind and practice comfortably, but how many years have they moved?

Sanchuan Plateau, Aurora Cave Mansion, Qiyun Peak......

Now, Qi Yunfeng has not been in existence for a long time, but his new home has not yet been settled.

It's even more "homeless" than when he was alone with an apprentice.

Meng Zhou nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, I'll try my best." ”

Seeing this, a light smile first appeared on Bai Zhi's face, but soon, she quickly shook her head and said:

"I'm just saying it casually, don't take it seriously...... If you don't have a family, now is not the time to think about it, and the most important thing is not to let the Star Palace catch the traces. ”

Speaking of this, she seemed to have thought of something, and asked with a worried expression: "If the Star Palace returns to the Qingxuan Domain, there will be a great turmoil in the cultivation world, right?" ”

Meng Zhou already knew what she was worried about, and asked, "Are you worried about Zhu Qian?" ”

Bai Zhi nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Meng Zhou comforted:

"Don't worry, the cultivation world may experience some turmoil, but the Star Palace is not an evil sect, and it is impossible to carry out a major purge against the entire cultivation world.

I estimate that even if the Star Palace is resentful, it will only limit the scope of the attack to the top of the five sects at most.

Otherwise, what's the difference with the Demon Dao? ”

When he made this judgment, Meng Zhou added in his heart that in addition to the high-level of the five sects, he should also count the "Qihuangmen" where he is located and the high-level of the professional association that is deeply related to him.

Because he knows very well how deep the beam is between himself and the existence behind Yan Zhuang.

In front of this "hatred of blocking the road", the five sects together do not have as much hatred as they have pulled.

However, it is good for him to understand this matter himself, and there is no need to say it in vain to worry Bai Zhi.

Moreover, in the face of this kind of "never-ending" dead knot, Meng Zhou already had a rather whimsical solution in his heart.

Now, he has to use the next less than half a month to verify whether this whimsical idea is feasible to put into practice.

Bai Zhi thought for a moment and reluctantly accepted Meng Zhou's reason, but the worry in her heart did not completely disappear.

She thought about it carefully and said:

"In the Qingxuan Domain cultivation world, Sanchuan Yuan is still too eye-catching.

Zhu Qian has been operating in Sanchuan Plateau for many years and is quite famous, which is likely to attract the attention of the Star Palace.

Otherwise, let her change her name, leave Sanchuan Plateau, keep a low profile for a few years, and avoid this first limelight? ”

Meng Zhou nodded and said, "Yes, this is indeed more secure." ”

Seeing that Meng Zhou agreed, Bai Zhi said happily: "Then go and arrange it now?" ”

When she thought of her apprentice Zhu Qian, the first thought that came to her mind was actually to take her to her side.

However, this thought only turned in her mind in the end, and she actively threw it away.

First, she didn't want to embarrass Meng Zhou.

Again, she also realized that this was not suitable, and for Zhu Qian, it was safer for her to "hide the sea in a drop of water".

Meng Zhou hurriedly said: "Don't be busy, I will arrange it for Zhu Qian, and talk about another thing first." ”

Bai Zhi hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Meng Zhou stretched out his hand and waved lightly, and three third-order inferior Tai Sui bodies appeared in front of him.

These three Tai Sui bodies are vague in appearance, and they are the "original version" of Tai Sui's bodies that have not yet been transformed into flesh and blood by the essence and blood of the heart.

Bai Zhi stared at the three Tai Sui bodies that suddenly appeared with curiosity, and asked, "What is this?" ”

Meng Zhou roughly explained their function, and then asked:

"Can you transform them into three completely different flesh bodies that have nothing to do with each other?"

Listening to Meng Zhou's narration, Bai Zhi's eyes widened wider and wider, and in the end, her eyes were full of surprise and incredulity.

After listening to Meng Zhou's request, Bai Zhi's eyes were not completely determined, but full of excitement and eagerness.

She shook her head and said, "Maybe you can try, but I can't guarantee it." ”

As she spoke, the silhouette of an old woman appeared in front of Bai Zhi.

As the phantom of the old woman submerged into Bai Zhi's body, Bai Zhi had turned into the image of an old woman.

Not only the appearance has changed, but also the bones, viscera, meridians, and dantian have undergone corresponding changes that are in line with the characteristics of the old woman.

Even the breath of life naturally carries the air of decay that only an old man can have.

Not only has the physical body undergone a very thorough change, but the soul has also turned into the form of an old woman, naturally exuding the atmosphere of decay and twilight.

Then, a ball of blood appeared in Bai Zhi's hand, which turned into the image of a hunched and hunchbacked old woman, which was the essence blood of her heart.

She gently threw this mass of heart essence blood, and this mass of heart essence blood submerged into the mouth of a Tai Sui body, and soon, this mass of heart essence blood seeped into its mouth, and then spread to the limbs and bones of Tai Sui's body.

Everywhere the essence and blood in the heart went, the white Tai Sui flesh and blood like clotted nephrite turned into bones, meridians, blood vessels, dantians, muscles, viscera, and epithelium...... Transformed into a real flesh and blood body that could no longer be real.

And the appearance of this flesh and blood body is exactly the same as the image of Bai Zhi's old woman at the moment.

Not only is the external form completely consistent, but the flesh, bones, viscera and meridians are also completely consistent with the state of the old woman.

Looking at the transformed Tai Sui body, the two looked at it carefully for a while, but without saying anything, Bai Zhi looked at the second "original version" of the Tai Sui body.

At this moment, her image has changed from a twilight old woman to a handsome young man.

Just as she was about to take out the essence blood in her heart, Meng Zhou suddenly said, "Can you lower your cultivation to the state when she first entered the Yudan?" ”

Bai Zhi was stunned when she heard this, nodded and said, "Of course you can." ”

Soon, she "refreshed" her current form again.

It's still that handsome young man, but his cultivation has been lowered a lot.

Then, she once again took a ball of essence blood from her heart and injected it into the second "original" Tai Sui body.

Soon, this Tai Sui body changed into the appearance of a handsome young man.

This Tai Sui body, which is the strongest that can reach the peak level of the third layer of the Jiedan, is limited by the strength of the "handsome young man" itself, and only the strength of the newcomer to the Jiedan.

It didn't take long for Bai Zhi to complete the transformation of the third Tai Sui body.

A calm old man on the second floor of Yudan.

When they were done, the two of them stepped forward and began to scrutinize them from the inside out.

After a long time, Bai Zhi shook her head and said:

"I didn't find any flaws...... If I were to judge, as long as I ignored the part of the divine soul, they were three completely different cultivators.

Did you find any flaws? ”

Meng Zhou shook his head and said, "I didn't find it." ”

But then he asked: "You say, can Yuan Ying find a flaw?" (End of chapter)
