[26 years old: Achieve the flawless Vajra state!]

【...】

The man who came was dressed in a simple white robe, and his brows exuded a heroic spirit. He was still young, and his bright silver gun could still emit a little cold light even when the sky was getting dark.

Ji Qiu glanced briefly and knew that this man was not an ordinary person.

"What a rich smell of blood..."

Zhao Bailong held his spear and frowned slightly as soon as he approached the gate of the village.

He looked towards the open door and saw at a glance the corpses of many thieves, lying lifeless on the ground.

Master heard that bandits were becoming more and more rampant in Lianyun Mountain, so he specifically told himself that he could come here to test his gun skills and hone his martial arts skills.

Just looking at this look, it seems that someone has already got there first.

Zhao Bailong had thoughts in his mind and then raised his head.

At the front of the road, he saw Youdao, a young Taoist priest in yellow, standing on a high platform, looking at him quietly.

Just at this glance, Zhao Bailong couldn't help but feel a little frightened in his heart, and there was a vague feeling of being completely seen through.

"This man is extraordinary."

With a shudder in his heart, Zhao Bailong came to a conclusion.

Then he hesitated for a moment, but did not show any timidity. Instead, he strode forward and crossed the gate. Standing a few feet away, he shouted to Ji Qiu:

"One person came here alone, and he was able to wipe out a bandit den cleanly. Your Excellency's methods are extraordinary. I, Zhao Bailong, may I ask what I call you?"

Holding the spear, Zhao Bailong thought for a while, then raised his hand and asked from a distance.

Under the supervision of the guardians, the remaining gangsters did not dare to make any changes and were carrying supplies honestly.

After Ji Qiu glanced lightly, he nodded and responded:

"Taipingdao, Zhang Julu."

"The thieves in the mountains are taking advantage of my Taiping Dao reputation to do evil. If I encounter them, they should be punished."

"I see that Your Excellency is an extraordinary martial artist. When the sun sets over the Lianyun Mountains, you don't look like someone who has fallen into disgrace and turned into a bandit."

"Coupled with the fact that the whole body's energy is condensed in one place, could it be possible that you are also here to eliminate the place where this gangster is entrenched?"

After hearing the young Taoist's responses and questions, Zhao Bailong's originally guarded expression showed a little relaxation.

Since they are of the same mind, they are not rivals at all.

Then, the wrist that was holding the bright silver gun gently released three points of strength, and Zhao Bailong nodded immediately:

"Yes, my master once said that banditry in Lianyun Mountain is a serious disaster. Today I traveled all the way here just to get rid of this mountain disaster!"

"But I didn't expect to meet you."

After hearing this, Ji Qiu understood clearly and immediately understood why the bandit leader died today.

Even if he can avoid his own disaster, facing Zhao Bailong with a gun, he is probably no match for him!

You can escape the first grade of junior high school, but you can't escape the fifteenth grade.

Thinking of this, the young Taoist cupped his hands and immediately issued an invitation:

"Lianyun Mountain is inhabited by bandits and is a nest of snakes and rats. This place is just one of them, and it is far from being completely cleared."

"Since we are on the same journey, why don't you join me to completely clear these dozens of miles of mountains tonight and restore peace to the land?"

Ji Qiu was quite interested in Zhao Bailong, so he wanted to invite him to go with him and eliminate all the bandits all over the mountains and plains.

After Zhao Bailong heard this, he thought for a moment.

"This person has great skills. He should be a qi refiner with great Taoism. Master once said that these qi refiners are unique masters. If we get to know each other, it's not impossible."

So, Zhao Bailong held a gun, cupped his fists and said:

"If you are also willing to clear this mountain, then you will indeed go the same way as me."

"In that case, it's okay to go together."

"Sorry for disturbing you."

After the initial exchange between the two, Ji Qiu commanded the guardian warriors and saw with his own eyes these little bandits pulling cart after cart of grain out of the village and down the mountain.

Only then did he join Zhao Bailong and go deeper.

The moon is dark, the wind is high, and the weather is cool.

The murderous intention is getting stronger.

This trip lasted a full night.

When the weather turned sunny, dawn broke through the sky.

The Lianyun Mountain bandits who were causing trouble in the south of Youzhou have all their heads killed!

And at the highest place in the distance, in a large mountain village called Lion King Mountain.

A great war has come to an end.

The leader of the thief in Lion King Mountain wields a chain of tiger-headed swords, which is enough to reach the realm of late Xiantian. There are more than a thousand minions gathered here, roaring everywhere, and he is known as the leader of the eight bandits in Lianyun Mountain!

But the night before yesterday, he was picked on the door of his house.

"Well..."

The brawny man with an open mind and a tiger-headed sword, in this chaotic and messy camp, looked at the bright silver gun that pierced his chest, blood spurted out of his mouth, and he was a little afraid

Confidence.

But a moment later, as the young man holding the gun retracted his wrist and twisted it, his broken heart suddenly exploded completely.

I just felt that my vision went dark, and before the thief had time to say what he wanted to say, he fell to the ground with a thump and made no sound.

Ji Qiu, who was cleaning the village next to him, saw this and nodded slightly.

Chatting with Zhao Bailong, Ji Qiu already knew that the martial arts skills he used were passed down from Xu Yuan, the master of spear art, and his name was: Hundred Birds Chao Feng Qiang.

In the hands of this young man with a handsome face, this spear technique can be used with extraordinary agility. When the tip of the spear flickers, countless spear shadows come out in chaos, followed by the faint sound of phoenixes, which makes people lose their mind.

.

The marksmanship is good and the person is not bad either. The two complement each other and they are really an outstanding person!

Taiping Road needs such talents!

After bringing those little gangsters under control, Ji Qiu felt the transformative power of the Taiping Sutra and felt a little surprised.

Although this method is an act of benefiting the world, it can be transformed by the power of merit and virtue, thereby increasing your cultivation.

But what Ji Qiu didn't expect was that eliminating the bandits in Lianyun Mountain would actually increase his spiritual practice.

"Could it be that the definition of good fruit is based on my own cognition?"

There was some thinking in Ji Qiu's eyes.

At present, his cultivation level has been growing rapidly in more than a year.

If when he first entered the Qi Control realm, what was gathered in Ji Qiu's dantian was just a small stream, then now the spiritual energy stored in his dantian has the potential of a river!

At this level, at least within the Great Yan Dynasty, Ji Qiu could be regarded as a true cultivator of the Dao, and he was qualified to launch an attack on the final step of the Dao-based realm!

However, Ji Qiu, who had never built a Tao foundation before, was still very unfamiliar with this Tao.

He only knew that if he wanted to break through the realm, he must first condense his spiritual energy into his Dantian and form the prototype of the Dandao.

After that, when the Dantian is liquefied and the Tao foundation is built, it is considered complete.

If there is a foundation without flaws, then the person's future path will be smoother; otherwise, the more flaws there are, the more difficult it will be.

And this is called the foundation of the great road!

"As for this, you still have to go to Mount Taihua and ask the real talent of Taihua."

Thinking of the time when he was simulating, Master Taihua used his half-life merit and cultivation to open up a path for himself to gain the foundation of Taoism. Ji Qiu couldn't help but feel a little flutter in his heart.

He still didn't know why Taihua was so kind to him without expecting anything in return.

Is it just because my own path coincides with the Taiping Sutra?

Perhaps, there is a deeper meaning in it.

But that would require him to go to Taihua Mountain in person to find out.
