The candle shadow shakes red, and the harp and chords play.
Zhang Ke collapsed on the bed, with no strength left in his body.
Sensitivity that is several times higher than that of ordinary people brings not only unparalleled enjoyment but also more sacrifice.
Ding Xiaoxiao reached out and grabbed Zhang Ke's ear, bit his lip and murmured softly:
"If you can't come up with a reasonable reason for deceiving my sister, you won't even be able to leave the dormitory today."
Yesterday, Zhang Ke had the courage to leave Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao at Fairy Finger at the same time on the pretext that they had important matters to discuss.
A long absence is better than a newlywed.
Through some indescribable means, the two women fell.
After the two girls woke up today, the first thing they did was to call for punishment.
Zhang Ke glanced at Qingmei on the other side, only to see that his mask was frosty, and he no longer had the charm and charm of last night.
Seeing the two women dodge each other's eyes, Zhang Ke felt a little proud.
When he heard Ding Xiaoxiao's threat, he couldn't help but tremble and said hurriedly:
"It's really something, but I couldn't help but forget to mention it last night..."
Before he could finish speaking, he felt severe pain coming from his legs at the same time, and he couldn't help but scream.
Just think about that scene, there is nothing more embarrassing than three people meeting frankly.
Ding Xiaoxiao looked slightly ashamed and angry, gritted his teeth and shouted:
"You...you still dare to mention this!!"
Qingmei frowned and took his hand back. This guy's skin was too thick now, and it was really difficult to twist it.
Zhang Ke didn't dare to laugh anymore and quickly explained.
"That's it. In order to fight against the catastrophe that may happen in the future, I am preparing to rebuild the Heavenly Palace and integrate all the cultivation forces in this world."
Then he told the two girls one by one about his plan in detail.
Before he could finish speaking, Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao's expressions turned solemn.
No practicing sect or practitioner is willing to accept the control of others, especially those sixty high-grade sects.
Once the news of this matter leaks out, both Zhang Ke and the 'Xiantian Yiqi Nanzong' will be in danger of death in an instant.
The two women each sat up from the quilt, leaving Zhang Ke's eyes widened for an instant and ignoring them.
Qingmei spread her robe over her body, frowned and said:
"Besides the two of me, who else have you told this about?"
Zhang Ke's heart skipped a beat, he laughed twice and whispered:
"I just talked about it with Xu Qingzhi."
As soon as these words came out, Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao's eyes suddenly flashed with cold light and they stabbed towards Zhang Ke like swords.
"Did you eat her secretly?"
"Why would you tell her such a matter of life and death?"
Zhang Ke was afraid of causing misunderstanding between the two girls, so he quickly shook his head and explained:
"No, she and I are innocent."
"real??"
Ding Xiaoxiao asked with some disbelief.
She knows that Zhang Ke has never had any confidence in women, especially beauties like Xu Qingzhi who have unparalleled looks in the world.
"Really, more real than pure gold."
Qingmei stroked his forehead and said angrily:
"Don't you know that if some things are not kept secret, it will cause great harm?"
To tell an outsider such an important thing, it seems you don’t want to live anymore.”
After saying that, he straightened his robe and stood up on the bed. With a thought, the sword hanging on the pillar flew directly to his back.
Zhang Ke's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt something bad, and hurriedly said:
"Qingmei, what are you going to do?"
Qingmei said in an understatement:
"Go and eliminate the hidden dangers completely."
Zhang Ke quickly got up from the quilt, grabbed Qingmei's clothes and shouted:
"Why is this so?"
A trace of evil flashed in Qingmei's eyes, and he said coldly:
"Only the dead can keep secrets."
Ding Xiaoxin agreed with Qingmei's idea, and a green light appeared on the tip of his left finger, turning into a vine to bind Zhang Ke.
"Sister, just go ahead and leave this bastard to me."
Zhang Ke was anxious and was about to break the vines with his hands. Unexpectedly, as soon as he exerted force, numerous cracks appeared on Ding Xiaoxiao's body.
This startled him, and he quickly relaxed his body, realizing that Ding Xiaoxiao had deliberately connected the vines to his bloodline to tie him down.
For a moment, he didn't dare to struggle anymore. When he saw Qingmei's figure flashing away, he hurriedly said:
"How about you listen to my explanation first and then deal with it?"
Qingmei has a resolute personality and originally didn't want to pay attention to Zhang Ke, but seeing his embarrassed look at this moment, her heart softened.
After pondering for a while, he turned around and came to Zhang Ke.
"Tell me, if you can't satisfy me, Xu Qingzhi will die today!"
Ding Xiaoxiao quietly loosened the vines that bound Zhang Ke and curled up to listen to his explanation.
Zhang Ke stabilized his mind and explained:
"Xu Qingzhi is good at management, and she manages tens of millions of people in the nine counties of Penglai in an orderly manner. She is a rare talent for the sect.
Rebuilding the Heavenly Palace is not a day's work, and will inevitably involve many matters in the future. Only by involving her can we fully cooperate with her."
"snort!"
Qingmei snorted coldly and said dissatisfiedly:
“The sect is now full of talents, so why not find a few talents who are good at management?
Even if you want to tell her this plan, you shouldn't tell her now. If we don't get along with each other in the future, she can completely destroy you with a backhand.
What's more, the separation between people's hearts is the most unpredictable.
Xu Qingzhi has great ambitions and is definitely not someone who has been subordinate to others for a long time.
Yesterday in the Lingxiao Hall, when he opened his mouth, hundreds of people in the hall were silent.
If you put these handles in the hands of this woman, won't you be under her control in everything from now on?
People's ambitions will expand. If she is dissatisfied with her current position in the future, how will you deal with it?
In order to nip it in the bud, my opinion is to kill it."
Zhang Ke didn't know this in his heart, but at the time he was so excited that he said this, but now it's hard to stop.
If you slaughter your fellow sect members who have worked conscientiously for the sect just because of a little worry in your heart, it may be difficult to maintain peace of mind.
Hearing Qingmei's words, Zhang Ke was speechless.
After a long time, he sighed and said:
“That day, when I was talking about my original intention of practicing cultivation, I suddenly felt so many things in my heart that I lost control of my mind and couldn’t stop myself from speaking out about this plan.
In fact, I have regretted it, but in the final analysis, the fault of this matter is mine, and I cannot blame anyone else.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, if you attack Xu Qingzhi just because you are worried about what may happen in the future, you may be saddened by the threshold in your heart!"
Qingmei frowned, it was easy to kill Xu Qingzhi, but she didn't want Zhang Ke to be in a bad mood because of this, which would be extremely detrimental to his future practice.
"Then how can you guarantee that Xu Qingzhi will not leak this matter?"
Zhang Ke hesitated and said:
"She is now also the true monarch of our sect's soul, and she is also in charge of the sect's power.
Apart from this sect, no other sect would be able to give her a chance to do whatever she wants.
Moreover, our sect is developing rapidly now, and it may not be inferior to top-grade sects in the future.
Coupled with my shock, as well as the ties of friendship and interests, I doubt that this matter will be disclosed easily.
What's more, even if she tells people, it's a matter of doubt whether others will believe it..."
Before he could finish speaking, Qingmei sneered and said:
"Do you know what a woman is?
Emotion is always superior to reason. The more powerful a woman is, the more obsession she has in her heart.
In the future, Xu Qingzhi will have a Taoist partner. Do you think in her heart, which one is more important, the sect or the Taoist partner?
Now my heart is not with you, let alone people like Xu Qingzhi who look like gods but are arrogant.
She and you are just from the same sect, but aren't there many cases of quarreling between the same sects?
There are no two days in the sky, and there are no two masters for the people!
Xu Qingzhi's status in the sect is now only lower than yours.
As long as she continues to be in power, irreconcilable conflicts will definitely break out between you and her in the future.
When that time comes, will you back down for your own ideas?
No! You won’t!
Likewise, Xu Qingzhi won’t either.
Once estrangement occurs, suspicion will naturally arise.
Suspicion is like a seed, as long as it takes root, it will sprout. Without mutual trust, can you still trust her like you do today?"
The heart-wrenching question made Zhang Ke unable to speak. He wanted to say that he would trust Xu Qingzhi as always, but he could deceive others but could not deceive himself.
What's more, even if I trust the other party, will Xu Qingzhi trust me?
After a long while, Zhang Kecai said calmly:
"I can only taste the bitter fruits I have sown. I cannot let the sect fall into danger because of my own carelessness.
If that's the case, let me do it myself!"
At this moment, Zhang Ke's philosophy of insisting on facing his whole life was shaken, and the scale in his mind that clearly distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil, was tilted.
At his current state, the perfection of his state of mind is more important than his cultivation.
Qingmei noticed something strange the moment Zhang Ke left his mouth. Zhang Ke's eyes, as clear as spring water in the snow-capped mountains, seemed to have turned a lot darker.
There is even a cold, sharp, and unscrupulous aura coming from his body.
'not good!'
Qingmei suddenly understood that she was afraid that she had put too much pressure on Zhang Ke, causing him to become mentally disturbed.
Ding Xiaoxiao also keenly sensed something was wrong and hugged Zhang Ke from behind without thinking.
Gentlely:
"This matter may not really be that serious. I have a way to keep Xu Qingzhi a secret."
Zhang Ke was shocked and turned to look at Ding Xiaoxiao.
"really?"
Ding Xiaoxiao said solemnly:
"The matter is so important, how dare I play it like a child's play!"
Zhang Ke couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It would be great if Xu Qingzhi could be kept a secret without hurting her.
The haze in his heart dissipated, and Zhang Ke's breath recovered again.
Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao let out a long sigh of relief.
At the same time, the two of them also felt a little strange in their hearts. Zhang Ke's state of mind seemed not perfect enough and he could easily be affected by the outside world.
Thinking of what he said before, he might have accidentally informed Xu Qingzhi under similar circumstances.
After all, he never told either of them about this matter.
Zhang Ke hesitated for a moment and asked:
"How are you going to let Xu Qingzhi keep the secret?"
Ding Xiaoxiao smiled mysteriously and said:
"You don't have to ask about this, just leave it to me."
In fact, she couldn't help but secretly complain in her heart at this moment.
There was no way she could tell Xu Qingzhi to keep the secret, she just said it casually because she was worried about Zhang Ke.
Zhang Ke was so disturbed that he did not see the flaw in Ding Xiaoxiao's words.
But green-browed bystanders know clearly, and they can indeed understand clearly from the sidelines.
Worried that Zhang Ke would take in Ding Xiaoxiao’s words, he immediately changed the topic and said:
"Okay, let's leave this matter to Xiaoxiao.
By the way, there is one thing that really puzzles me. I wonder what your plan is?"
Zhang Ke's attention was indeed attracted and he asked casually:
"What's the matter?"
Qingmei racked her brains to think, but kept asking:
"I heard that you issued a mission to the sect and wanted to refine a floating ship?"
Zhang Ke looked outside and saw that it was bright outside. It was no longer good to stay on the bed. He stood up and dressed and explained:
"In the future, this world may have a life-or-death battle with the immortal cultivators.
If the historical records are accurate, I am worried that the strength of this world is far inferior to those of immortal cultivators.
If you want to have any chance of survival at that time, you can only use your own strengths.
If it is possible to refine a floating ship that ordinary people can control, it will definitely create a huge advantage in numbers.
And if we can find some powerful offensive techniques and deploy them on ships, we might be able to change the situation of the war."
Ding Xiaoxiao said hesitantly:
"Floating ships are not that easy to refine, right?
Only some high-ranking sects in this world still have some floating spaceships left behind by the Heavenly Court.
If it were easy to refine, there would have been floating ships everywhere in the past few thousand years."
"hehe--!"
Zhang Ke said proudly:
"Come here, let me show you some good things!"
As he spoke, his mind moved, and a dark golden vertical thin line immediately appeared in front of him.
Then the dark golden thin lines opened to the left and right, revealing a portal filled with dark golden mist.
One of the benefits of advancing to the 'Dongtian Realm' is that it no longer has to be as cumbersome as it used to be to open the secret realm of Dongtian.
Zhang Ke waved to Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao, and took the lead to enter the secret realm.
After Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao entered, the dark golden portal closed into a thin line again and disappeared.
Zhang Ke's natal talisman [Ruyi Talisman Rubik's Cube] was entered by two girls.
But after entering this time, I immediately felt something different.
The vitality floating in the air is smart and lively, and you can even see clouds of various colors gathering in the sky.
At the same time, the area has at least doubled. Qingmei used his spiritual sense to explore it and felt that the secret realm was now no less than the size of two Dingzhous.
The mountains are undulating, the vegetation is deep, the water is flowing, and the blue waves are vast.
Birds and beasts roamed in the mountains and forests, and fish jumped into the ponds and washed in the rivers, lakes and seas.
Listen carefully to the chirping of birds and the cries of apes, take a breath, and the fragrance of flowers is refreshing. Looking around, you can see the mist covering the mountains and fields, just like a paradise.
Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao couldn't help but be immersed in it for a while.
After a while, Ding Xiaoxiao sighed and said with great envy:
"I wonder if my ocean of flowers will be of this size in the future."
Zhang Ke smiled and said:
"Don't worry, this secret realm is rich in products and resources. I have collected the seeds of countless exotic flowers and plants and are cultivating them.
When the time comes, it can be transplanted into your secret realm."
Then he said to Qingmei:
"When the Green Eyebrow Secret Realm evolves successfully, leave everything needed for the growth of the Secret Realm to me."
Qingmei hummed and turned around to look around.
"Do you just want to show off your secret realm in front of me?"
Qingmei formed elixirs at the age of twenty-eight, and achieved Yuan Shen many years earlier than Zhang Ke.
But now Zhang Ke actually crossed the 'Five Qi Realm' in one fell swoop and entered the 'Dongtian Realm' before her, which really made her very dissatisfied.
I remember that when I was Jindan Zhenren, Zhang Kecai was only in the innate realm. He was so trembling when he saw me that he didn't even dare to raise his head.
But now this guy is getting more and more outrageous. Yesterday he actually dared to leave himself and Ding Xiaoxiao together.
Every time she thought of something embarrassing, she would get angry.
Zhang Ke chuckled lightly, his mind turned, and the three people disappeared from the air in an instant.
After the halo that was spinning rapidly like a kaleidoscope in front of their eyes disappeared, Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao found themselves in a castle.
This is an open, flat site several miles in size.
Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao's attention was instantly attracted by the hundreds of strangely shaped ships neatly arranged on the venue.
These ships are as big as a hundred feet, but the small ones are only two feet in size.
The reason why they are said to have strange shapes is that these ships may be fusiform, wedge-shaped, or flat, and there are dozens of weird shapes.
In terms of types, there are more than ten types including tower ships, fortune ships, treasure ships, small boats, and multi-sailed warships.
In addition, the entire body of these ships is engraved with countless magic patterns and talisman patterns, and there are flashes of spiritual light from time to time.
What caught their attention most was that all the ships in the field had their anchor heads connected to the ground, as if they were afraid that these ships would leave.
You must know that this place is on land, not in the water!
This strange feature immediately aroused the suspicion of the two of them. Ding Xiaoxiao said strangely:
"Hey! Why did these ships break down? Could it be that they can fly?"
Zhang Ke flicked out a flash of light and hit a node on the field, and the hook-shaped anchor head separated from the ground node on its own.
The formation patterns all over the thirty-foot-long ship connected to the anchor head burst out with spiritual light, and in a moment, the entire ship was covered with spiritual light patterns.
The next second...
"Crash--!"
Right in front of the three people's eyes, the thirty-foot-sized ship slowly broke away from the ground and slowly rose into the air.
"This...is this a floating warship?"
Ding Xiaoxiao turned to Zhang Ke in confusion.
Zhang Ke said "Hmm" and looked up at the building boat that was floating upward until it was about thirty feet above the ground. It stopped rising and was suspended in the air.
Zhang Ke grabbed the air with his backhand, and the floating ship was pulled hard and slowly fell to the ground. Then the anchor head was connected to the ground node again, fixing it on the ground.
"Do you remember the Blue Sky Realm?"
Hearing Zhang Ke's inquiry, Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxin moved slightly, remembering some of the things Zhang Ke had said to them in the past.
"Isn't that a realm you encountered when you were exiled to the void?"
Zhang Ke nodded and said:
"Exactly! A few years ago, Gouhun told me that the 'Blue Sky Realm' has now been unified.
And he refined countless floating warships to fight against the realms where the 'Blue Sky Realm' was decomposed.
The floating warships in front of me were selected and refined from the refining methods I collected from the soul."
Qingmei and Ding Xiaoxiao looked at each other, with a trace of doubt in their eyes.
Ding Xiaoxiao asked:
"Since you already have the method of refining the floating warship, why are you still issuing a mission to obtain the 'method of floating' in the sect?"
Zhang Ke smiled and said:
"If you create a technique and teach it to others, can they achieve the same effect as you?"
Ding Xiaoxiao shook his head and said:
"Of course I can't. It's not easy to create a technique. I don't know how many times I will fail in the process.
Regardless of the concepts, structures, or lessons learned from failure, the insights cannot be experienced by others.
Oh! I understand what you mean."
Zhang Ke said softly:
"Yes, I have already obtained the refining method of these floating warships. The reason why I did not give them to the sect is for one purpose.
That’s why I hope that the disciples of the sect can find the ‘Levitating Technique’ suitable for immortal cultivators in this world.
When a tall building rises from the ground, the foundation is the most important.
Only after the foundation is complete, I will present the method of refining the floating warship for everyone to study.
If this refining method is handed over now, there will only be more step-by-step craftsmen in the sect.
In the long run, this is a kind of behavior that is only encouraging the growth of young people and will not be of any benefit to the industry.
Moreover, the materials, inheritance, and laws of different realms are different, and only the one that suits you is the best."
Qingmei frowned and said:
"But the immortal cultivators may arrive at any time. What if the immortal cultivators arrive before we can develop such techniques, warships, etc."
Zhang Ke sighed and said:
"So I have been hoarding various resources and purchased various core materials for refining floating warships from the [All-Heaven Star Alliance], and the warships here are also being refined non-stop.
If that day comes, I will have no choice but to make this kind of refining method public."
Qingmei raised his eyes and looked around. Not far from where the floating warship was parked, there were several tall chimneys emitting black smoke.
