The moonlight shines on the green grass, giving off a flash of silver light, coupled with the sound of crickets chirping.
Immediately afterwards, a small gust of wind blew.
Then I saw a person lying on the ground moving, holding a small red cauldron in his arms, as if to keep warm. This person was Zhang Mu who had fainted.
Suddenly, Zhang Mu's eyebrows moved, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up.
He looked around and exclaimed: "Damn, how come it's night in the blink of an eye?"
"By the way, it seems that I entered a place, and then there was a black light." He suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Qiankun Jue."
After saying that, Zhang Mu sat cross-legged. He wanted to see if he could see the Qiankun Jue again, but he couldn't see the situation inside his body after trying for a long time.
He opened his eyes and said helplessly: "It seems that I have gone back to practice internal vision." After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the outside of the forest.
After returning to the cabin, I heard the conversation of three people inside.
"Where do you think Makiko went?"
"I searched the woods in front of me and couldn't find him."
"Is Brother Makiko going to be okay?"
...
Listening to their talk becoming more and more outrageous, Zhang Mu pushed the door open and shouted: "I'm back."
Afterwards, there was no happy greeting. Liu Li and the other two people all stared at him, feeling confused.
Zhang Mu said without confidence: "Hehe... If you have something to say, you don't have to worship me so much?"
Immediately afterwards, Liu Li and the others rushed forward and started yelling at each other. They only stopped when they shouted that they were wrong.
Zhang Mu sat on the bed with his panda eyes, rubbed his waist with his hands and said angrily: "Damn, who pinched my waist, it hurts me to death."
Liu Li shrugged and said, "I don't. I am a scholar."
Sun Xiao grinned and said, "I testify that Li Zi did not pinch you. He seemed to have used his fists."
Hearing this, Zhang Mu shouted: "Your uncle, Liu Li, it was you who hit me in the eye."
Liu Li put on a defensive posture and said angrily: "Don't come over. Didn't you admit your mistake?"
Zhang Mu twisted his waist and said arrogantly: "Tell you, brother, I have a Zen saying."
"What Zen words?"
Seeing the three people looking at him, he couldn't help but said loudly: "Have the courage to admit it beforehand, and never change it afterward."
Liu Li and the other three looked at each other, raised their middle fingers at the same time and said, "Your uncle."
...
After Liu Li and the others went to bed, Zhang Mu took out the jade slips given by Li Xiu and found the method of practicing endoscopic vision in it.
It took another half a stick of incense to memorize the formulas of endoscopic surgery.
Then I reviewed it carefully several times before I decided to give it a try.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, holding his breath and concentrating, he completely regarded himself as a still body. His spiritual consciousness flowed quietly in his body, feeling the subtle and slightly tilted mystery.
It took about half a cup of tea.
Suddenly, a scene appeared in his mind, and all he saw was sticky stuff in front of him.
Seeing this, my thoughts suddenly came over, and I was pleasantly surprised, "Holy crap, are these the meridians in my body?"
Then, after circulating inside the body for a while, he stopped playing around and decided to go to the Consciousness Sea to see if the Qiankun Jue really existed.
If this skill really exists, I really have some scruples. You have to know that in my past life, this is the skill practiced by a demon. If I really practice it, doesn't it mean that I am a demon?
?
But when I think about the power of Qiankun Jue, my heart is ready to move. If I don't practice such a set of skills, wouldn't it be a waste of natural resources?
At this time, the spiritual consciousness also came to the sea of consciousness. I only saw a tiny trace of spiritual consciousness wandering around, thinking that this was my own sea of consciousness.
"Is that so? It seems that I need to practice more intensively in the future."
Seeing how little consciousness I have, it’s no wonder that I often faint due to unbearable stress. I guess this is the main reason.
Afterwards, I looked for it, but there was no sign of Qiankun Jue. When I was about to give up, I felt that the illusion around me had changed.
"Haha... Qiankun Jue, really Qiankun Jue."
I saw a set of fonts in front of me, with the three characters "Qian Kun Jue" at the front. I thought this was a set of cultivation techniques.
After taking a few glances, Zhang Mu suppressed the excitement in his heart and slowly withdrew his consciousness.
Just after withdrawing from consciousness, my head felt dizzy, and I couldn't help but rub my temples with a look of helplessness.
"Qiankun Jue, should I practice it or not?"
"But what if you become a demon after cultivating? What if you don't?"
In this way, Zhang Mu lay on the wooden bed struggling, and slowly fell asleep due to the consumption of a lot of consciousness.
The next day, Zhang Mu was awakened by the voices of Liu Li and the others.
After sitting up, I couldn't help but stretch.
"Muzi, hurry up and copy the skills and auxiliary spells for cultivating your spiritual consciousness."
Zhang Mu nodded without saying anything. He took out the blank jade slip and copied it very simply.
After Liu Li and the other three took them, they took them all over to practice. Zhang Mu was left lying on the bed to practice the Qiankun Jue.
Seeing the three of them practicing, Zhang Mu got off the wooden bed and walked out of the wooden house, lying on the brought Muyang Stone and thinking.
In a flash, it was noon. Liu Li and the three of them also walked out holding their stomachs.
Zhang Mu stretched and said with a smile: "How's it going?"
After thinking about it all morning, I had made a decision just a moment ago. Since I have such a skill, I should practice it. Maybe if I practice it, it will be a breakthrough point.
"Well, I just practiced the inner vision and concentration skills. Although it hasn't increased much, it's almost there."
"Well, have you practiced your major?"
Liu Li handed Zhang Mu a wild fruit, and he ate it while lying on the Muyang Stone, saying, "Well, it's not as good as what your master gave you, but it's still a good job."
Zhang Mu smiled and said, "That's fine."
...
Just like that, half a month passed in a flash.
After Zhang Mu finished taking the two middle-grade Qi-Refining Pills, he planned to upgrade the low-grade Qi-Refining Pill. But he didn't expect it to be ruined. He was so angry that he didn't smash the Xumo Cauldron.
Although he didn't understand what was going on, Zhang Mu was not much worse than Liu Li and the others. After all, he was taking a middle-grade Qi Refining Pill.
But just today, Zhang Mu put his spiritual consciousness into the Xumo Cauldron. After entering the Xumo space, he accidentally found a middle-grade Qi Refining Pill in a space.
I originally planned to take it out, but I tried my best to not take it out, so I had to withdraw angrily.
"Miko, I think it's time to do a mission to get some spiritual stones."
In the past, when you were a disciple in the physical training stage, you could only receive some characters that earned gold leaves. But now you are a disciple in the qi refining stage, and you can also receive tasks to earn spiritual stones. Of course, it is still the same, and those who are capable will be chosen.
But I don't have to think about this issue at all, because I have a backdoor, and that is senior brother Su Liu.
After all the calculations, Su Liu is probably about to compete in the Foundation Establishment Pill competition, and it's probably almost time to assassinate Li Yun.
After taking a short rest, Zhang Mu and the others walked towards the work room.
After arriving here, the four of them walked in very low-key. Although they didn't need to be humble, they couldn't be arrogant either.
After waiting for the disciple in front to receive the task, Zhang Mu walked up to Su Liu.
Su Liu asked without raising his head: "What mission do you want to receive?"
"Senior brother, of course the mission is to pay as much as possible."
After hearing Zhang Mu's voice, Su Liu quickly raised his head.
Then, he looked at Zhang Mu with squinted eyes and said happily: "That's right, I didn't expect you to have reached the middle stage of the first level of Qi refining."
The realm of cultivation, no matter what it is, is divided into levels one to seven, with levels one and two being the initial stage, levels three and four being the middle stage, levels five and six being the high stage, and level seven being the peak stage.
Each level is also divided into the early stage, the middle stage, the high stage, and the peak stage. Only after Zhang Mu reaches the peak stage and breaks through can he be promoted to the second level of Qi Refining.
Zhang Mu said in a low voice: "Senior brother, you are laughing. I wonder when we will do this?"
Su Liu also knew what was going on. He looked at the disciples around him and whispered: "See you in the pine forest tonight."
Then, Su Liu smiled innocently and said, "Junior brother, do you know what mission you want to receive?"
After getting Su Liu's answer, Zhang Mu also wanted to receive a task.
"Senior brother, is there anything suitable for the four of us?"
Su Liu nodded and said with a smile: "I knew you would come, so I left a good one for you." After saying that, he turned over and took out a task paper.
"This is a small forest of steles not far from Mobei City. There is a hurtful goblin in it. I guess you don't need me to tell you what a goblin is, and what a real goblin is?"
Zhang Mu thought for a while, and then said according to his own thoughts: "Brother, do you think fairies have developed their spiritual intelligence earlier, like foxes, etc. They can change into human forms without reaching the Nascent Soul stage."
Su Liu glanced at Zhang Mu appreciatively, nodded and said: "This goblin cannot be said to be a real demon. Only those who are in the real Nascent Soul stage and have condensed the Nascent Soul can be considered a real demon."
Zhang Mu nodded after hearing this. This was similar to his own understanding, and it was quite easy to accept.
"Then what kind of cultivation level is this goblin, senior brother?"
Su Liu shook his head and said: "It probably won't exceed the fourth level of Qi Refining!"
After hearing what he said, Zhang Mu grinned. Are you kidding me? I guess?
"Brother, this is no joke. Let alone the fourth level of immortality, even the fourth level is not something we can bear."
Su Liu nodded and said: "I know this, but for you disciples in the Qi refining stage, this is the only one with high income. Of course, if you think it is dangerous, you can change it to something else."
Zhang Mu thought for a while and said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness, senior brother. Zhang Mu will definitely complete the task."
Su Liu smiled, stamped the task paper, pointed to a place and shrugged: "This is not a task for the training period. Where do you go to apply? If you pass it, you will pass it. If you can't pass it, I can't do anything."
Hearing this, Zhang Mu was heartbroken, looked at Su Liu and whispered: "Brother, do you need the consent of other people?"
Su Liu said helplessly: "There is no way, this is not an ordinary task. Otherwise, why wouldn't I do it?"
"But don't worry, the one being audited today happens to be my first junior brother. Just mention my name, I believe you can still pass easily."
Zhang Mu nodded and took the task paper, and led Liu Li and the others toward that place with a smile on his face.
