one year later.

Sea locust sea area.

Zhang Liang woke up from seclusion with sharp eyes and foul breath.

"It still doesn't work? This third level of body training is actually a bit difficult!"

Yes, because of the battle with the Black Crow Division, Zhang Liang harvested seven black squids in the late stages of Qi training, which were comparable to first-level top-grade ferocious beasts.

By swallowing the demon element and refining the demon pill, Zhang Liang originally thought that he would be able to directly enter the third level of body refining. But he was still overly optimistic, and this would only barely allow him to reach the peak of the second level of body refining.

Without the black squid in the later stage of Qi training, even if Zhang Liang swallowed the first-level middle-grade ferocious beasts one after another, it would be of no avail.

Because, he found that the demon elixir of the first-level mid-grade ferocious beast had little effect on him.

"No, there are too few first-order high-grade ferocious beasts in the Black Fish Coral Reef. It is not wise to leave the coral reef rashly. It seems that if you want to advance to the third level of body refining through the first-order high-grade ferocious beasts, you have to rely on the Black Fish Wise Man, otherwise

We can only go back to Qingfeng Island to hunt!"

Zhang Liang was not in a hurry for success. He originally planned to reach the third level of body refining in two years, but because he broke into the Black Crow Department a year earlier, it was already an opportunity.

If you think about it too fast, it's a bit unrealistic.

The meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step.

Although his attempt at the third level of physical training failed, Zhang Liang was not discouraged. He was still young and had plenty of time.

As the saying goes, if there is no light in the east, there will be light in the west. Zhang Liang has not made any breakthrough in physical training, but he has made rapid progress in breeding spiritual insects.

This year, except for the first few months, he stayed in the Black Fish Department. After that, he spent nearly a year practicing in the sea locust area.

Because there are a large number of sea locusts here, Zhang Liang uses endless sea locust carcasses every day. Using insects to raise insects, combined with the seaweed and sea mud in the sea locust sea area, the spiritual insect breeding effect is extraordinary.

Now, Zhang Liang's bag of spirit beasts contains more than 212 first-level middle-grade jasper cockroaches and more than 809 first-order low-grade jasper cockroaches. This kind of reproduction speed and quantity are unparalleled in Qingfeng Island.

Just by selling spiritual insects, Zhang Liang is worth a lot of money.

Unfortunately, a first-grade high-grade jade cockroach has not been born yet, but among these jade cockroaches, there is a jade cockroach with an unusually large size. It is very likely to be promoted to a first-grade high-grade jade cockroach, and Zhang Liang is also looking forward to it.

In addition to the jasper cockroach, the breeding of blood-sucking sea locusts is more suitable for the soil and water here, and is faster than the jasper cockroach.

Currently, Zhang Liang has 321 first-level mid-level blood-sucking purple locusts and 1,509 first-level low-level blood-sucking purple locusts. Currently, there is also a blood-sucking purple locust suspected of being a queen, but it has also failed to advance.

Spirit insects can be cultivated very quickly, but Zhang Liang knows that this is not enough. If they do not reach the first level of high quality, spirit insects may just be spirit insects, and are mostly used for fishing and hunting.

If you want spiritual insects to assist you, your level cannot be too low.

Therefore, it is impossible for him to rashly release the trump card of spiritual insects before the first-order high-grade spiritual insects are born in large numbers.

"Boobobo~"

Following Zhang Liang's call, five black fish quickly swam over. These five black fish were the Four Fools of Heaven and Earth Xuanhai and Hei Babai.

Zhang Liang has used them all before. He knows their details and their loyalty, so it will be easier to use them.

"Young Master, are you out of seclusion?"

"Young Master, have you accomplished your magic?"

"Young Master, are you going to catch insects again?"

Zhang Liang waved his hand: "No more catching insects today. The period of the year has come. This year's ancestor sacrifice is different from the past. You guys will follow me back to the tribe to prepare for the ancestor sacrifice."

"Yes, young master."

Hei Tian smiled innocently: "Young Master, will you sit on my head?"

Hei Babai quickly pushed Hei Tian away: "Go away, the young master is used to sitting on my head."

"Papa~"

Zhang Liang clapped his hands and said coldly: "This time, I need to practice thief skills and swim by myself. The five of you, see if you can keep up."

The thief movement technique is naturally a speed movement technique developed by the Black Squid. It must be said that the speed of practicing this technique is indeed very fast, almost comparable to the speed of the black fish spirit when performing the violent secret technique.

The key point is that the violent secret technique is not long-lasting, but the thief movement technique is a technique that continuously consumes spiritual energy, so in comparison, this technique naturally has more advantages.

"咻咻~"

At this moment, Zhang Liang used the thief technique and the violent secret technique, and suddenly turned into a black phantom and disappeared in the eyes of the five stupid people.

"Young Master, wait for us."

"Young master is so fast."

Hei Hai sighed: "Sure enough, he is not the young master. He is in the same realm as me, but his speed is twice as fast as mine."

After a while, the five fools had lost track of Zhang Liang, and could not even find the traces of passing water.

At this moment, suddenly, a huge black shadow suddenly appeared in front of the five people, scaring the five of them into fighting postures.

"Little Lord?"

It was Hei Hai who was a little smarter, and the first one to realize that the person coming was actually Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang also nodded slightly, saying that combined with the sea monster's water escape technique, the longest distance of the water escape secret method can reach up to ten miles. Within ten miles, the distance of escape can be determined by the consumption of spiritual energy. The main thing is,

Obstacles can be ignored to a certain extent.

But if it's a formation or the like, it probably won't be ignored, but it's definitely much stronger than the ordinary water escape secret technique.

"Very good. With my current spiritual energy reserve, I can use it four times with all my strength. I have added another life-saving trump card."

…

Half a day later.

Blackfish Department.

Zhang Liang returned with the Five Fools, and was immediately chased by thousands of fish.

"Young Master is back~"

"Young Master returns from training~"

"Young Master has achieved great success."

"The young master's cultivation will definitely skyrocket."

"Is the experience of the five guardians exciting?"

Zhang Liang has become accustomed to this kind of blind worship. Ever since he last defeated the Black Crow Division, these Black Fish like to miss him, which is very annoying.

The Five Idiots, on the other hand, have somehow become the Five Great Protectors, and their status has skyrocketed.

At this moment, the five fools were surrounded by countless black fish, and Zhang Liang often heard scary words such as "mating".

"You five, go and have fun by yourselves!"

"Yes, young master."

…

Blackfish City. Young Master's Mansion.

Although this so-called Young Master's Mansion does not look gorgeous at all, it is mainly a large square stone house, inlaid with black fish essence, full of pearls and luminous corals, and surrounded by lingshells as decoration, and it also opens up a small area.

Seaweed garden.

For the Blackfish, this is already a very high-standard mansion, comparable to the mansion of the clan leader Heisha.

However, Zhang Liang prefers to go out for training, mainly to facilitate his traveling to and from Qingfeng Island.

now.

When Wu Xianxian heard that Zhang Liang had returned, her heart suddenly became tense.

Ever since she was captured by Zhang Liang, she had been a little afraid of him. It was not a fear of his strength, but a fear of his thoughts. She felt that this man was indeed very intelligent and seemed to be able to suppress her in everything.

Seeing Zhang Liang flying all the way, Wu Xianxian began to feel nervous.

"Brush~"

However, Zhang Liang passed directly by the Young Master's Mansion without any intention of stopping, and went straight to Heisha's Mansion.

This made Wu Xianxian stomp her feet for a moment. How could this person be like this? After going out for so long to practice, he finally came back without even returning home. She didn't seem to care about her as a maid at all.

After going to Heisha's mansion, Zhang Liang came to the wise man Heiyu again.

"Master, I'm back!"

"Haha! Just come back, just come back. Disciple, you didn't go to a dangerous place to practice this time, right?"

Zhang Liang shook his head: "Master, I have been cultivating insects at the edge of the locust sea area, and my disciple actually encountered something during this period."

"Oh? Tell me about it?"

Zhang Liang then said: "My disciple lured the ferocious beast with the black squid carcass, but found that the ferocious beast seemed to be very concerned about the black squid's demon elixir, and fought for it fiercely, but I don't know why?"

Zhang Liang had been holding back this question for a long time and had never had the chance. After returning from this experience, he happened to ask it.

"So this is it!"

The wise man from the Black Fish laughed: "It is normal for the ferocious beast to covet the demon pill of the sea monster. Disciple, you have to know that the sea monster and the ferocious beast are actually enemies. Because the sea monster has a spirit and swallowed our demon pill.

There is a high probability that they will improve their spiritual intelligence. In fact, some Kraken races evolved from ferocious beasts. And how did they evolve? It was a coincidence that they swallowed the Kraken's demon elixir and absorbed the essence of spiritual intelligence.

.”

"I see."

Zhang Liang moved. No wonder a group of ferocious beasts wanted to fight for the black squid's demon elixir. They just wanted to become smarter.

After getting the answer he wanted, Zhang Liang immediately changed the subject: "By the way, master, my disciple has now reached the third level of body refining, but he can't hunt the first-level ferocious beasts. He also thought that the time for ancestor sacrifice is approaching.

, then came back, I wonder if master can think of a way for his disciple?"

"What? Disciple, have you hit the third level of body refining bottleneck?"

The wise man Blackfish was immediately shocked and looked at Zhang Liang in disbelief, as if he had witnessed some miracle.

Zhang Liang nodded: "Master, this year, I have been refining the demon elixir to destroy many black squids, and my progress is indeed not slow."

"This is not only slow, this is simply..."

Suddenly, the Black Fish wise man said: "Disciple, have you ever felt that your foundation is unstable? You have grown so fast in such a short period of time, have you ever felt that it is difficult for your body to adapt?"

Zhang Liang shook his head: "I haven't yet, my disciple is physically strong and feels that my foundation is solid."

"It shouldn't be!"

The Black Fish wise man was puzzled. Two years ago, he witnessed Zhang Liang being promoted to the second level of body refining. But in just two years, Zhang Liang told him that he had encountered a bottleneck. This was a terrifying speed that had never been seen in the history of the Black Fish Department.

"The perfect transformation is indeed terrifying."

For the problems that he does not understand, the Black Fish Wise Man can only attribute them to his perfect transformation, otherwise he will not be able to explain them at all.

At this moment, Zhang Liang once again confirmed that the root cause of all this was that the magical power of swallowing the sea was too heaven-defying. Without this magical power, just destroying the demon pill would probably take a lot of time.

Zhang Liang took advantage of the situation and said: "Master, my disciple is now facing a bottleneck. He needs the flesh and blood of a first-class ferocious beast and demon elixir. I wonder if Master can help?"

"certainly."

This time, Blackfish Wise Man agreed wholeheartedly, joking, the apprentice encountered a bottleneck, how could he take risks at such a critical moment? Of course he was the one to take action.

"However, my disciple, you are encountering a bottleneck at an awkward time. In a few days, the ancestral secret realm will be opened. After the secret realm is opened, even if the master hunts ferocious beasts for you now, I am afraid it will be too late. Compared to promotion

Which is more important, the third level of body refining, or the ancestral secret realm? Disciple, how about you wait for a few more days and then make a breakthrough after going to the ancestral secret realm?"

"Everything depends on the master's arrangement. But master, doesn't the Ancestral Secret Realm have any requirements for strength? If I advance to the third level of body refining, will I be more confident?"

The wise man Blackfish immediately smiled and said: "Disciple, this is the secret realm of our ancestors. Although it is difficult in the secret realm, it will not lead to death. Moreover, breaking into the secret realm of the ancestors has nothing to do with strength. It seems to be more about character. Otherwise,

How could my master be so eager to open the secret realm of our ancestors?"

Of course Zhang Liang knew that the reason why the Black Fish Wise Man was so anxious was that his life was short and he wanted to benefit Zhang Liang as soon as possible.
