Chapter 24: The Later Stage of Foundation Building
In the early morning, before the sun rose, Zhou Changqing came to the top of a mountain not far from the care, for some reason, in the early morning, Zhou Changqing's cultivation speed was much faster than other times, Zhou Changqing also considered, this may be related to his body is a plane tree, or it may be the reason for the fire of the sun in his body, Zhou Changqing can feel that the fire of the sun in his body is more and more in line with his own body, and his own body is also a feeling that he is about to degenerate.
The sun slowly rises from the ground level, the morning sun has a mild feeling, not as violent as noon, the aura between heaven and earth swarms, pouring into Zhou Changqing's body, the five elements of aura are poured into Zhou Changqing's sea of knowledge, Zhou Changqing divides the five elements of aura into five parts, the wood aura is the most, the fire aura is second, the other three aura occupy the least area, the five kinds of aura circulate regularly in Zhou Changqing's sea of knowledge, and the cycle repeats. Zhou Changqing was slightly puzzled when he cultivated, he always felt that his cultivation speed seemed to be a little faster since the incident in Wuyuan City, but it was not so obvious, if it wasn't for the old tree demon's tens of thousands of years of cultivation and his sensitivity to aura, he probably wouldn't be able to feel it, Zhou Changqing had a guess, but it still needs to be verified.
After finishing the morning of cultivation, Zhou Changqing began to cook, in the novels of cultivating immortals in the previous life, it was said that people who cultivate immortals can open the valley, and Zhou Changqing's cultivation is still unable to clear the valley in the middle stage of foundation building, of course, Zhou Changqing can also go without eating for a few days, and he can only provide the energy needed by the body by cultivation alone, but it can only last for a few days, like those novels in his previous life, a retreat is hundreds, thousands, and tens of thousands of years, and now I really can't do it.
Zhou Changqing flicked his right hand, and several thin wooden sticks shot into the water, and with a casual move, the wooden sticks returned to his hands, each wooden stick was wearing a fat fish, and he caught nearly a hundred of them several times. The two fire crows stood on Zhou Changqing's shoulders, and while directing Zhou Changqing, there were fish there, and they chirped excitedly.
Liu Ruyi was a little helpless hiding in the shade of a big tree, she also wanted to help, but her current cultivation was still low, and the strong sunlight would hurt her, so she could only stand there and watch silently. Zhou Changqing asked her about her cultivation method, it was just a simple basic Qi Cultivation Realm method, and she could only cultivate to the seventh level of Qi cultivation, and Zhou Changqing had to find a way to get a more advanced ghost cultivation method when she went to Qianyuan City this time, otherwise wouldn't this genius who was born with a spiritual root be buried!
After catching the fish, Zhou Changqing built a big grill and prepared a lot of dry wood, Zhou Changqing is a plane tree incarnation, a natural wood monk, making these things is simply a matter of moving his fingers. Soon the fish were cleaned up and put on the grill, Zhou Changqing took out some seasoning materials from the ring, these were all collected by him along the way, there were sweet and sour, sprinkled some salt and some condiments on these fish, Zhou Changqing began to flip the grill, Zhou Changqing in his previous life made some meals by himself, and after graduation, he also had some pursuit of life, and deliberately learned cooking, although it was not as good as the chefs of those hotels, but the taste was also quite good.
The two fire crows jumped around on Zhou Changqing's shoulders, their four eyes lit up, and their mouths were about to drool, this was not the first time they had eaten the food cooked by Zhou Changqing, and in the time they had been together for so long, no matter which time Zhou Changqing did it himself, these two goods would definitely not be absent!
"Okay no! Okay no! It's not that I'm talking about you Lao Zhou, you said that you know these things as a dryad who doesn't eat or drink, and you know how to eat more than I eat tons of food every day!" the big girl croaked while jumping up and down on Zhou Changqing's left shoulder.
"Wait a while, this thing will be delicious when it's cooked! Why can't I eat as an old tree! Not only do I eat a lot, but I also know how to eat delicious!" Zhou Changqing flipped the grill and bragged to the big girl.
Er Ya didn't pay attention to these two guys, just sniffed the smell in the air, it used to occasionally run into the sea to catch a few fish to eat, and felt that the taste was just average, but I didn't expect the taste to change so much just by baking and adding some things.
Liu Ruyi is behind Zhou Changqing, she used to be a daughter, there are many servants, and she rarely cooks herself, now she is no longer the eldest lady she used to be, she is determined to practice cooking, after all, she is only Zhou Changqing's maid now, if she can't learn these quickly, she is unqualified.
"When you're making this kind of barbecue, you have to keep turning the grill to heat the meat evenly on the grill, and remember to brush the condiments until the meat is golden brown. Zhou Changqing taught Liu Ruyi while roasting, and Liu Ruyi was also listening very carefully, with a serious expression, and nodded from time to time.
"Okay! It's ready to eat!" Zhou Changqing put the grilled fish on the wooden table on the side, and the two fire crows immediately flew over and feasted on it, Liu Ruyi is just a virtual body now, and he can't eat, he can only watch, his eyes are full of envy.
Nearly 100 grilled fish were eaten up in less than a cup of tea, and Zhou Changqing waved his sleeves, and the soil turned over, and the mess disappeared.
It is nearly half a month to live here, the scenery on the edge of this small lake is pleasant, Zhou Changqing feels that if it is not for the pursuit of Xiuxian Avenue, it is also very good to live here all the time.
On the morning of this day, Zhou Changqing sat on the top of the mountain as usual to cultivate, the mana in his body was already very full, with the continuous integration of the spiritual power of the five elements into the body, the bottleneck in the middle stage of foundation building was finally broken by Zhou Changqing, the sea of knowledge in the body expanded again, the mana was further enhanced, and even the physical strength was also strengthened a lot, and the body was also more powerful.
A smile appeared on Zhou Changqing's face, he had finally reached the late stage of foundation building, the fourth realm of foundation building, and now he had reached the third realm, and the ontology was equivalent to breaking through the fourth order, which was of great significance. Moreover, Zhou Changqing's hand flashed slightly, and a fan shaped like a sycamore leaf appeared in his hand, the fan was golden yellow, and a brilliant red feather was inlaid in the middle of the fan, which looked very extraordinary.
Zhou Changqing's master felt it, he used this fan to fight the enemy, and he could barely fan it out, and the flame magic power of the fan itself could not be mobilized, and there was not much mana left in his body, but the power of this fan Zhou Changqing knew, and the monks below the knot Dan were probably not able to take it down.
The most precious thing about this fan is that he and Zhou Changqing come from the same source, and they can grow with Zhou Changqing's strength. But now I'm afraid that this fan will only be able to be controlled by Zhou Changqing until he reaches the Yuanying Realm, and he can use it at will, after all, it was the magic weapon of the old tree demon before.
After Zhou Changqing consolidated his cultivation in the next two days, he decided to set off again.
Zhou Changqing had just left for two days, and a black cloak figure came to the edge of this small lake, swept his grimace around, and suddenly saw a place on the ground, stomped his feet slightly, the soil rolled, and the food residues buried in the ground were exposed.
"I'm finally going to find you!"
A slightly excited voice came from behind the grimace mask, and then rushed towards the direction where Zhou Changqing left.
At night, the stars in the sky are brilliant, Zhou Changqing stopped in a small pavilion to meditate and rest, Liu Ruyi was sitting on the stone table next to him and conjured up a piano, caressing the piano with his hands, the music of this world sounds unique, Liu Ruyi is now playing a relatively soft music, making people feel like a spring breeze, Liu Ruyi is playing while playing, occasionally looking at Zhou Changqing with gentle eyes, Zhou Changqing is lying sideways on the railing on the side of the pavilion, gently shaking with the beat.
Liu Ruyi is a standard lady, she is quite proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she has a deep knowledge in the piano, and she has also learned some dances in the drunken Huanlou, and occasionally dances for Zhou Changqing. These days, Zhou Changqing can be regarded as having experienced what life is.
"Da Da Da ......"
The sound of heavy footsteps interrupted the beautiful music, and a figure in a black cloak slowly walked to a position a hundred steps outside the pavilion and stopped.
Zhou Changqing's shaking body stopped, and Liu Ruyi glanced at Zhou Changqing worriedly, and then turned into a cloud of green smoke and melted into the sachet on Zhou Changqing's waist.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time! I'm coming to chase me from thousands of miles away, who the hell are you!"
"Nether Sect Ground Level Killer!Ghost Cat!" the visitor raised his head slightly, revealing the grimace mask on his face, and his voice was hoarse.
"Ground level, do you Nether Sect killers still have ranks?" Zhou Changqing asked with a little curiosity, still reclining on the railing.
"You're talking too much!"
The black-robed man untied the terrifying giant sword behind him with his left hand, held the hilt of the sword with his right hand and dragged the giant sword upside down behind him, and the earthy yellow spiritual power around his body surged to cover the whole body and the giant sword in his hand, and then his body bent slightly, jumped high, and slashed the giant sword behind him towards the pavilion below with his right hand.
"Boom!", under the huge force, the pavilion exploded into countless fragments and flew in all directions.
"It's really violent! I don't know how many passers-by this pavilion has been built here, and you can tear it down if you say it!" Zhou Changqing's slightly regretful voice came from the top of a big tree not far away.
The black-robed figure on the ruins of the pavilion, as if he hadn't heard Zhou Changqing's words, raised his giant sword again and slashed at Zhou Changqing at the top of the tree, and the same thing happened again, the big tree was shattered, and Zhou Changqing fell to another big tree.
"No, you're not angry!" Zhou Changqing's slightly ridiculous voice reached the ears of the black-robed man.
The black-robed man's body stiffened slightly when he heard this voice, obviously a little angry.
After a few rounds, the black-robed man finally spoke.
"Are you just going to run away!?" said a hint of mockery in his hoarse voice.
"Forget it, I've had enough of it! I'll send you home!" Zhou Changqing's hand flashed with golden light, and a small fan appeared in his hand, and the fan rose in the wind and instantly became much larger.
"Magic weapon!"
A hoarse exclamation sounded, and the black-robed man's voice was full of disbelief.
