longevity road trip

……

Five or six hours later, on an uninhabited desert island thousands of miles away.

Zhang Shiping floated down, and after the light disappeared, he took out Chen Bin's golden elixir with a serious face, and cast the soul search spell on it without saying a word.

After a cup of tea, the round pill collapsed into a mass of spiritual energy with a "bang" without sending the soul. For a while, the spiritual energy in Zhang Shiping's body was as strong as that of the top three. Jieling Mountain.

It's just that he didn't take the opportunity to absorb these auras into his body at the moment, because Zhang Shiping sensed a very strange aura from these auras, which seemed to be a combination of malevolence and barbarism.To be on the safe side, he didn't take the risk of coveting these petty gains, but instead closed his acupoints tightly to prevent himself from inhaling even a trace.

Amidst the billowing aura, Zhang Shiping slowly moved forward silently, and he did find some clues from Chen Bin's memory.

Zhang Shiping found that there were a few very strange monks who came into contact with Chen Bin. These people were covered in a black mist, their faces could not be seen clearly, and their auras could not be detected. These people called themselves 'clans'.

Among them, what surprised him the most was that he had encountered the mysterious blood and soul refining circle used to improve his cultivation several times before.

Chapter 516

The three-tailed black snake, the melted cow monster, and the silver-backed old turtle were trapped in those three formations, which were [-]-[-]% similar to the blood-soul refining formation in Chen Bin's soul memory.The only difference between the two is whether or not the black and white soul lotus is planted.

It's just that Zhang Shiping can't be sure, because he searched it from Chen Bin's memory, and he didn't see it with his own eyes.Besides, even what you hear and see with your own eyes may not be true. In the world of cultivating immortals, there are many secret formations that cover other people's eyes.

Suddenly, Zhang Shiping frowned slightly, flipped his hands and took out a very delicate brocade box.

With a sound of 'click', the box was opened, and there were two bright golden pills on the red silk brocade.Zhang Shiping thought for a while, put his two fingers together, and attracted the strange golden elixir that was slowly dissipating around him, condensed it on his fingers, and then lightly touched one of the golden elixirs in the box. a little bit.

As the aura of the strange kind of golden elixir slowly sank in, the golden elixir in the box started to shake, and then suddenly there was a sharp wailing sound, like a sharp knife, piercing into the depths of the soul.However, Zhang Shiping has been tempered for many years through the spiritual consciousness technique of 'changing yuanshu', and his mind is already extremely tough.

There was a mere howl of surprise, but it was just a harsh noise.

He stared intently at the jumping golden elixir, and then a gray light flashed in his eyes, and he heard a 'chi chi' sound.

Reflected in Zhang Shiping's eyes, there was a gray ghost with a blurry face, which was an extremely strange half-human, half-animal appearance.

However, Zhang Shiping can be sure that this ghost image is not the appearance of the demon monarch.

Usually, monsters can transform into human form after they pass through the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation, but they will more or less carry some characteristics of their own tribe, such as the monster kings of the dragon, tortoise, and Kui Niu tribes, who turned into human forms. Finally, the shell-tailed scales and horns... But they are not human after all, once these demon kings die, their souls will only look like their own, and they will definitely not become half-human and half-beast.

The heaven and the earth have their own good fortune, great ingenuity does not work, elephants are invisible.

The body of this ghost is more like two completely different types of creatures, forcibly stitched together, giving people a sense of disharmony and extreme discomfort.

And as the ghost image completely dissipated, the originally bright golden pill in the box visibly faded to the naked eye, turning into a scarlet blood pill. After a few 'clicks', several invisible fine marks appeared on the surface of this scarlet blood pill, and then there was a clear bang, and this blood pill also dissipated into a light red aura that filled the sky.

Zhang Shiping closed the brocade box with a snap, as if frosty, he didn't try the last golden elixir, because it was unnecessary.

"Cao Qi in Jiuxuan Pavilion, people are harmless, and tigers hurt people's hearts. This person may be those so-called 'clan' monks. It's just a pity, that method of 'Crossing to a baby, I'm afraid it will have to be done again. Please think carefully, so as not to be confused by others." He sneered and said slowly.

The two golden pills in his brocade box were exchanged with the overseas monk 'Cao Qi' in Guihai Pavilion in Nanming City.At that time, this person had exchanged the Soul Spirit Lotus Seeds from Zhang Shiping on the grounds of treating the 'Evil' injury, and he took out these two demon pills.

At that time, there were three golden elixirs taken out by this person, Zhang Shiping remembered that one was exchanged by Huafeng Sanren in Nanming City, and the rest were these two in his hands.After getting the demon pill, Zhang Shiping has thoroughly checked it inside and out, and found nothing wrong with it. If he didn't meet Ming Xinzong today, he probably wouldn't do it again. Went to check.

Thinking of this, Zhang Shiping felt a little scared and a little angry.

With such a superb concealment method, he doesn't think that he will be fine after refining it directly, or preparing it into a pill and taking it, and the blood soul refining magic circle, with its effect of stealing people's mana, is tantamount to Those first-class evil formations.

Chen Bin of the Ming Xin Sect passed through this formation with the eighth level of foundation building and refined others. Within two years, he became a Golden Core cultivator.Although this kind of golden elixir is not refined enough, and its cultivation base is relatively weak, but if it can really prolong life, then Zhang Shiping believes that there will be monks flocking to it.

But from Zhang Shiping's point of view, those monks who claim to be "clan" will not help others in vain. They must have some interests and some purpose.There is no such thing as a white pie in the sky, and it is right to have gains and losses.

The monks who have taken a shortcut in this way will most likely be threatened by those people and will no longer be free.

When Zhang Shiping thought to himself, the strange reddish aura around him was slowly dissipating, he immediately took out a dark sapphire bottle engraved with many runes, and muttered a few times silently.

With a sound of "bang", the bottle cork flew up, and then some light red aura was suddenly fined into the bottle like a whirlpool.

After a few breaths of practice, after the ink sapphire bottle absorbed the spirit energy of about three to five middle-grade spirit stones, it shook for a while, and was unable to absorb any more.

Seeing this look, Zhang Shiping was not surprised at all. This dark sapphire bottle is just an ordinary storage device. Although it is engraved with runes, it can be regarded as a second-order magic weapon, but the spiritual energy around him is formed by the collapse of two blood pills.Even if part of the aura has dissipated, it cannot be completely absorbed by a second-order magic weapon.

Then he put the jade bottle in his hand into the storage jade belt, and filled another five bottles in succession until the spiritual energy completely dissipated between the heaven and the earth.

The corner of Zhang Shiping's mouth curled up, revealing a sneer.

Since this fellow Daoist Cao has put in so much hard work to plot against him, don't let him fight against the first army.Those 'clan' monks acted so sneakily, nine out of ten were doing something taboo.

Although he had never heard of these "clans" from the sect, Zhang Shiping didn't just rely on Xuanyuanzong to inquire about the news.The Hongyue Towers scattered all over Nanzhou are themselves the biggest place to sell news.

In the world of cultivating immortals, not only spiritual objects and exercises are valuable, but also all kinds of news are priceless.In Hongyue Tower, as long as the monks can afford the price, except for the news about the Venerable Huashen, which is really impossible to buy, other news can be learned from there in all likelihood.

It's just that if Cao Qi is the only one in this matter, then Zhang Shiping doesn't need to think too much about it, but he knows from Chen Bin's soul search that there are as many as a dozen of those "clan" monks who are not weaker than Jindan monks .In this way, Zhang Shiping had no reason to think about it, otherwise it would be bad to startle the snake.

But the most crucial point, Zhang Shiping was not sure whether that blood pill he had inspired just now would be sensitive to that cultivator Cao.

Chapter 517

Suddenly, Zhang Shiping changed his mind, glanced left and right, and immediately slapped the imperial animal bag on his waist, and a dozen blood-red locusts the size of a palm appeared in front of him.

As soon as these spirit insects came out, they scattered and jumped in all directions, some submerged in the weeds, and some burrowed into the ground.

After finishing these, Zhang Shiping set up the Dunguang and flew towards the Jinsui Island.

Originally, he thought that those so-called 'clan' monks were just a few monks hiding their heads and showing their tails.After killing Chen Bin, this matter should be almost over.But according to these clues, things are not that simple.

Those 'clan' monks behind this are definitely not only Jindan monks, but also Nascent Soul monks.

Because Zhang Shiping discovered at the bottom of the Gufeng Cliff in the past, among the many formation materials, the formation of the trapped silver-backed old turtle discovered by Zhang Shiping at the bottom of the Gufeng Cliff. Zhu, it is no longer affordable for a real person in the early stage of Golden Core.Decades have passed, and in his current storage jade slips, there is still a section of cold iron pillar about ten feet high.

Of course, Zhang Shiping preserved this part on purpose. If one day he encounters and uses this Youhan Iron, then he doesn't need to bother to find it anymore.However, the materials collected from that formation at that time fully supported most of his cultivation needs in the early stage of Golden Core, so its value can be seen.

Otherwise, even if there was a severed limb of the green-haired lion for his four magic weapons of fate, he would not be able to get out the matching forging materials so easily, let alone go to the ancient ocean. Haosheng searched for three to five years.

It can be said that what he got there saved Zhang Shiping a lot of energy and made his practice path much smoother.After he formed the alchemy, the Zhang family moved from Baiyuan Mountain to Binhai City. At that time, the family was extremely destitute.

"Songshi Yuanhengtai, Tianzhi Biwentian" Among the generations of the Zhang family, there were only two foundation-building monks left at that time.One of them is his father, Zhang Tongan, and the other is Zheng Hengyun, whom he picked up from the world.

However, none of the 'Yuan' family monks after Zhang Shiping succeeded in building a foundation, which shows the overall situation of the Zhang family at that time.Although it is said that as long as a Qi-refining monk reaches the ninth level of Qi-refining practice before the age of 60, it is possible to build a foundation, but before that, if there are too many hidden injuries left by fighting with others, even if he is lucky enough to practice to the ninth-level of Qi-refining The possibility of building a foundation will be greatly reduced.

The situation of the Zhang family at that time can be said to have no successors.If Zhang Shiping hadn't succeeded in forming the alchemy at that time, then if something happened to Zhang Tong'an and Zheng Hengyun, then the whole family's incense would almost be broken.

That's why at that time, when Zhang Tong'an heard that Zhang Shiping had succeeded in forming the alchemy, he followed the Xuanyuanzong group and moved the entire family here without any discussion. There was really no way.

……

……

Several hours later, the sky darkened.

Zhang Shiping was still about a hundred miles away from Jinsui Island, but seeing that the twilight was about to dim, he restrained the twilight and slowed down the flying speed, so as not to attract unnecessary attention from others.

After another incense stick of time, Zhang Shiping had already flown within one mile of Jinsui Island, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw a faintly discernible spiritual energy gathering in front of him, and then he dodged, After a few breaths, he landed on the island and strode forward.

Until he felt a block in front of him, he stretched out his hand and lightly tapped it forward, and then the invisible spiritual hood raised by the formation immediately opened up, and then Zhang Shiping walked in generously.

"Greetings to Master Zhang." The four members of Ming Xinzong noticed that someone had entered the magic circle, they were startled at first, and then they said with a sigh of relief when they saw Zhang Shiping, the Jindan Master.

"It's good that you haven't left yet." Zhang Shiping looked at the four people in the formation, and said lightly.

Since this incident happened halfway, Zhang Shiping also wanted to go back to Nanming City, go to Zongmen or Hongyue Tower to inquire about it, and then go to learn about the Jiuxuan Pavilion in the city.Otherwise, there will always be someone watching in the dark, making it difficult for him to practice with peace of mind!

And if the four juniors of Ming Xinzong haven't left yet, then it doesn't hurt to take a ride with them.To avoid any other accidents when they arrive!

After all, he and Mingxin Zongmin and Jin, two fellow Taoists, have a fairly good friendship, and they help as much as they can.Of course, if he can't take care of himself, it's another matter.

"Master Zhang, are you done with everything? But if you need to use the junior, just ask." Zhang Jingyuan bowed slightly, got up, and asked.

"Sit down, all of you. Don't stand still. Everything is fine, and there is nothing else to do." Zhang Shiping glanced at the four people, then waved his hand, and said calmly.

Zhang Shiping approached, and then took out the futon that had been used for many years and had turned yellow and simple, put it on the grass, and then passed cross-legged.

"I'm going back to Nanming City tomorrow, what are the plans of the four of you? If there is nothing else, I can take you along." Zhang Shiping glanced at the four of them and said slowly.

After hearing the words, Zhang Jingyuan and Yu Zitong's faces were full of joy, even Lei Yun and Liu Huaner, who had been silent before, seemed to be relieved.

"Thank you, Master Zhang!" The four said politely.

But that Liu Huan'er just opened his mouth and said something, and then became silent again with a wooden face.The eyes of Lei Yun beside her were full of remorse.

Zhang Shiping didn't hold on to his status as an elder, so he rushed to release the two of them.Don't persuade others to be kind without others suffering.It's pretty good to be able to take care of yourself after going through the world.

"Okay, since the old man is here tonight, you can meditate with peace of mind and recover some mana. We will set off immediately at dawn tomorrow morning." Zhang Shiping nodded and said flatly.

Then Zhang Shiping pondered for a while, looked at Lei Yun, and asked, "I remember that there was a Qingli Mountain under Ming Xinzong's rule, and there was a cultivating family named Lei there, do you know this place?"

"Back to Master Zhang, this junior is from Lei's family in Qingli Mountain." Lei Yun said respectfully.

"When I was young, I also knew a fellow Daoist Lei from Qingli Mountain called Lei Mo. He should be gone now! Oh, how time flies, it's been two hundred years in a flash." Zhang Shiping sighed One sound, and then fell silent.

"That's the great-grandfather." Lei Yun was stunned, and then said.

"That's it, no wonder the old man thinks you are somewhat familiar." Zhang Shiping smiled lightly.

Chapter 518

It's just that during the whole long night, the four members of Ming Xinzong were meditating and refining their energy, trying hard to recover their mana, but they didn't realize that Zhang Shiping had secretly left a dozen phantom locusts in Jinsui Island.

It was early in the morning, before Zhang Shiping could open his mouth, the four members of Ming Xinzong had already gathered up their efforts and stood up.

Seeing this, Zhang Shiping didn't intend to stay any longer, he waved a blue light from his sleeves, rolled up the four of them, and then immediately flew up with the four of them in his arms, and quickly flew towards Nanming City.

Zhang Shiping's speed of escaping light is extremely fast, he is now at the middle stage of Jindan, and it is just a piece of cake to take a few foundation-builder monks with him, and it is nothing more than consuming a little extra mana.

Besides, he is not running away in a hurry at this moment, and he doesn't need to fly with all his strength, so Zhang Shiping slowed down the speed of flying away a little, which is similar to that of a normal middle-stage Jindan monk, flying for more than five hundred miles in one hour, but even so, This is already much faster than the full-flying speed of their foundation-building monks' imperial weapons.

Four days later, Zhang Shiping, who was in the trance, suddenly turned his head and looked back, with a thoughtful look on his face.It turned out that he had stayed on Jinsui Island and Wuming Island before, a total of [-] phantom locusts that had been sacrificed many times with his blood essence and put down the blood ban, and seven of them died at the same time.

Although Zhang Shiping is tens of thousands of miles away and unable to order these phantom locusts, once they die, he can still sense them vaguely.However, there was no panic on Zhang Shiping's face, instead he simply stopped the escape light, Yukong was on the spot, his eyes were tightly closed, and he softly recited the blood forbidden method.

After a few breaths, a smile appeared in Zhang Shiping's eyes.

Just now, he used the method of blood prohibition to directly kill all the phantom locusts left on Jinsui Island and the nameless desert island, lest those monks use it as a medium to find him.

But because of this, Zhang Shiping confirmed that the number of those 'clans' was quite large, because according to what he perceived, the phantom locusts that died almost at the same time were scattered on Jinsui Island and Unnamed Desert Island, and the distance between the two was three thousand. Yu Li.Moreover, Zhang Shiping is now [-]% certain in his heart, unless he goes directly to Nanming City in the next moment through the teleportation circle or the teleportation method, otherwise, if the people in Jiuxuan Pavilion really have something to do with that 'clan' If they are connected, then they should already know.

"Master Zhang, what's the matter?" Among the people around Zhang Shiping, Zhang Jingyuan asked with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Zhang Shiping glanced at the crowd, shook his head and said with a smile, "There are some people in the back, they should be the guys with Chen Bin and Wu Song. It's okay, they're just some guys who hide their heads and show their tails."

That's what he said, but Zhang Shiping didn't have the slightest intention of underestimating the enemy. After he cut off the connection between himself and the Phantom Locust, he immediately flew forward with the Escaping Light again.

If those 'clan' monks were like Chen Bin, then even if he faced seven or eight people at the same time, he would be sure to kill them all with his backhand, provided he didn't fall into the formation.Of course, now that he is bringing these four junior disciples with him, for their safety, Zhang Shiping can only avoid the possibility of direct confrontation with them.

……

……

About two days after Zhang Shiping and his party left.

A cloud of white mist floated over Jinsui Island, and after circling for a while, a few deep roars of "roar, roar..." came from the white mist.

"It seems to be here." A calm middle-aged man's voice came from the white mist.

"My concubine has already said that that guy is just a piece of dung that can't stand on the wall, and it's not good to ask him to do small things. It seems that Sanqi's vision is really bad. Why don't you give up your quota to me?" How about me?" After the man finished speaking, there was a giggle in the white mist, and then an extremely soft voice came.

"Sijiu, you... good, good! If you want the seat in my seat, then you and I will do a few tricks to see how pure your blood is." After hearing the soft voice , the monk code-named 'Sanqi' laughed angrily, and then said gloomyly.

It's just that there were several low growls of "roaring" in the white mist one after another.

"Keep an eye on this beast, or one day I will boil the skin and eat it." The monk 'Sanqi' said coldly.

"Qing'er is good, Qing'er is good, it's not worth getting angry for this kind of person, it's not worth it, it's not good to hurt your body." The nun said with a smile.

After the white mist dissipated, three monks stood in the air above Jinsui Island, two men and one woman, all wearing black robes, with a bronze mask on their faces, only a pair of eyes were exposed. There is also a cyan strange beast beside him.

Its head is like a wolfhound, and its hair is all green with a jade-like luster, except that it has gray sharp horns about a few feet long, extending from the top of its head to its neck.Although it has not reached the realm of a great demon and has no wings, it can fly in the air like a golden core monk.

"Go." Among the three, the female cultivator with eyes as charming as silk stretched out her hand, and then she reached the gray horn on the dog's head. She touched it and said softly.

"Woof..." The blue dog barked a few times, then ran wildly, heading for Jinsui Island.Those three people followed immediately, and within half a moment, the dog turned around in an open space.

"It seems to be here." The middle-aged monk walked over and said in a deep voice.

It's just that suddenly, the dog barked at a certain grass, and then the female cultivator immediately sacrificed something, and a yellow aura swept across the entire grass in an instant.The middle-aged monk snorted coldly, and several streaks of gray light flew out from his sleeve, sinking into the ground.

Immediately, the dog plunged into the grass, and after ten breaths, it jumped out biting a piece of bloody worm.

It's just that before it ran in front of the female nun, the worm in its mouth ignited a flame for no reason, and instantly turned into a mass of black ashes. The blue dog wailed, ran to the female nun, and barked. stand up.

Seeing this, the middle-aged monk stomped his feet, and several deep pits were blown out in the nearby grass. He walked over slowly and saw the same ashes inside, and said in a cold voice: "This fellow Taoist is very careful. Ah, it seems that there are probably no useful clues to be found this time.”

"Let's go, let's meet them and see if they have any clues." The man pondered for a moment before speaking to the two.

As soon as he finished speaking, this person sacrificed an unknown magic weapon, a cloud of misty white mist enveloped everyone, and then turned into a white rainbow, flying towards the nameless desert island.
