Pingjiang City, small courtyard in the south of the city.

When Zhou Dao arrived home, it was already the second watch, and there were fewer and fewer people on the street.

The south of the city is originally a poor area, with various religions and peddlers. Except for some hawkers who have just left their stalls, few people come out at this point. Most of them have already slept with their wives two or three times.

As for bachelors without wives, those with two or three spare cash will go to Wild Donkey Alley to vent their anger.

It was regarded as a place for the poor to have fun in the flower streets and willow lanes. There were many aunts gathered there, most of them were still charming and mature widows. There were also some who were forced to make a living and came out to support the family without telling their husbands.

Although [Wild Donkey Hutong] cannot be compared with romantic places like Wanhua Building, it is economical and economical, you can play and go, the price is cheap, and no one will be delayed.

Many coolies, boatmen, blacksmiths, widowers, elderly people... and even beggars are frequent visitors to Wild Donkey Alley.

If you are quick, you can make an order in a minute or two, the money will come quickly, and the men will be satisfied.

To a certain extent, the women of Yelu Hutong have quietly contributed their share to the stability and harmony of Pingjiang City.

Zhou Dao's home is only two streets away from [Wild Donkey Hutong], and during the second watch, you can still see many people walking in that direction.

These men have ruddy faces, money in their arms, and hope and yearning in their eyes.

Just like when I was a child, I used my father’s personal money to sell candied haws, the look in my eyes is full of desire and satisfaction.

Dong dong dong...

At this moment, a sound of wooden banging came from a distance.

Under the moonlight, Old Man Xu was holding a white lantern, with a big character written on it, written in a dragon-like pattern, and it could be vaguely seen that it was the word "retreat".

"Uncle Xu."

Zhou Dao said hello.

Since moving to the south of the city, he and Old Man Xu have often seen each other, and they have become familiar with each other after going back and forth.

Zhou Dao often comes home late and can always meet him.

As he expected, Old Man Xu was alone and lived near [Wild Donkey Hutong]. He didn't seem to have any contact with relatives or friends these days.

According to the saying in the industry, this old man has a hard life and is guilty of being lonely.

"Xiao Zhou, you've been looking good lately, and you're in good luck." Old man Xu held up the lantern, glanced at it, and said calmly.

"TOEFL."

"Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other, so be careful."

The night wind blew, and old man Xu was wearing single clothes and coughed, looking even more lonely and weak.

Zhou Dao looked at it and couldn't help but sigh. At such an old age, he still has to run around in the middle of the night just to make a living. It's a hard life to think about.

"Uncle Xu, you should find a wife to take care of you." Zhou Dao whispered.

Old man Xu squinted his eyes, lowered the lantern in his hand, and then shook his head.

"The old man has a tough life. In this world, I'm afraid no one can bear it. Whoever comes will die."

"It's you, Xiao Zhou, you're not in peace lately, so take good care of yourself."

As he spoke, Old Man Xu held up a white lantern and was about to leave.

After taking just two steps, Old Man Xu suddenly stopped and turned around.

"By the way, Xiao Zhou, the dog you raise must be tied up tightly on weekdays, so as not to let it out and bite people." Old Man Xu reminded him kindly.

There are many people nearby, including many children. It would not be good if you were bitten.

Raising dogs in a civilized way naturally starts with the little things.

"Well, I understand, Uncle Xu." Zhou Dao nodded.

As he spoke, old man Xu held the lantern and gradually walked away.

"He is also a poor person."

Zhou Dao slowly withdrew his gaze, entered the courtyard, and closed the door tightly.

"Stay guard outside and howl if anyone approaches." Zhou Dao told Shi Qi.

Apart from Zhou Dao, there is no other person who can be found in Pingjiang City who can let a high-level evil monster guard the courtyard gate.

Since breaking through to the evil level, Ha Shiqi's strength has become more and more terrifying. Fighting alone, except for Long Ao, the other two commanders should not be his opponents.

Such strength is enough to dominate Pingjiang City.

With Shiqi around, Zhou Dao had no worries. He could safely offer sacrifices at home and practice boldly.

"Don't worry, Master, no one will bother you."

Ha Shiqi stuck out his tongue and was full of confidence. With his current strength, there were really not many monsters in Pingjiang Domain who could overpower him.

Especially in the past, when he occupied King Clam Mountain, the several monsters he had problems with have now been completely surpassed by him.

All this is because of following Zhou Dao.

Ha Shiran naturally devoted his life to Zhou Dao loyally.

Zhou Dao walked into the house, locked the door, and took out the bottle of [Fire Pill Fragrance Oil].

Different from [Moon Essence Sesame Oil], [Huo Dan Sesame Oil] is like a burning flame, glowing with the aura of red clouds. A very high temperature will be transmitted at the slightest touch. When gently kneaded, the texture is like oil and emits a peculiar fragrance.

Zhou Dao knows that incense generated by the Cave Heaven Paradise is extremely rare.

If ordinary monks can obtain even a drop, they can enter the path of spiritual practice and break through many obstacles.

Just like [Moon Essence Sesame Oil] and [Fire Pill Sesame Oil], even if Zhao Guangming is just beginning to see the path of cultivation, once he has the help of such treasures, he will definitely be able to enter the fourth transformation of the Refining Realm within two months.

Meet the basic requirements for slaying demon guards.

The most important thing is that this kind of sesame oil can change the bones, affect the body's constitution, and greatly tap the body's own potential.

Therefore, even within the Danxia Sect, [Fire Pill Fragrance Oil] is extremely precious, and not everyone can obtain the gift.

Lin Liuli was able to give up such a precious treasure to Zhou Dao, and the affection in it is self-evident.

But at this time, Zhou Dao's mind was completely focused on this strange [Fire Pill Fragrance Oil].

From Uncle Qin's book club, Zhou Dao learned a lot about [incense].

This thing is not only about improving your cultivation, but also about reaching [above the realm of refining].

Yes, there are those who have broken through the Nine Transformations of the Refining Realm, such as Sword Pillar Li Zangfeng, Lin'an Palace's number one master Huo Longwang...

These people are all beings above the realm of refining.

According to records in ancient books, if you want to reach the realm of refining, you must open an altar to ascend the spirit and worship it with incense, so that you can obtain the true and wonderful method.

Opening an altar to ascend the spirit is an indispensable way to break through the Nine Transformations of the Refining Realm.

It is said that once you break through the Nine Transformations of the Refining Realm, open the Dharma Altar, and raise the spiritual image, you will be able to obtain the completed inheritance and blessings, thereby fully sublimating and taking a crucial step.

Just like the [Qianyuan Cave] back then, the spiritual statue he enshrined was the [Sun and Moon Ape Demon King].

In fact, the [Yaksha Ghost King] practiced by Zhou Dao can also be regarded as a kind of spiritual image inheritance, but he did not obtain the complete spiritual image, only the cultivation method of the divine soul in it.

A true spiritual image is real and true, allowing blood and energy to transform, leaving the mortal body and embarking on the true path of evolution and cultivation.

This kind of inheritance is complete and indivisible, and other things, whether it is souls, talismans, weapon refining, etc., are just branches.

In order to open an altar to raise spirits, incense is essential. Some powerful spiritual statues require several or even dozens of types of incense to be offered.

[Huo Dan Fragrance Oil] is one of the incense used by Danxia Sect to worship spiritual elephants.

"Refining!"

Zhou Dao flicked his finger, and the sesame oil burned, just like red clouds of smoke entering his body.

Rumble...

In an instant, Zhou Dao's physical body vibrated like wind and thunder, his roots and bones changing, nourishing vitality.

The five internal organs are like a furnace, and the blood is like great medicine.
