Zhou Daocheng sighed helplessly and recounted what happened here. The two finally understood.

Zhou Shouxuan looked serious and stopped joking. "There are evil cultivators in the foundation building period here, and they slaughtered an entire family. It's really shocking! I will report this to the head of the family, but these two children..."

"Take them back. If they have spiritual roots, put them in Tianchi Mountain to study together. If they don't have spiritual roots, send them back to the secular world." Zhou Daocheng made arrangements for them directly.

After the two sides handed over, Zhou Daocheng and Zhao Yunzhi also said goodbye directly and rushed to Bailin Lake. The two had been delayed for a long time and had to get back as soon as possible.

...

One month later, in the underground cave.

Zhou Daocheng sat cross-legged in it, surrounded by rich spiritual energy, and a layer of rich Wu Earth spiritual energy attached to his body, emitting a faint light.

As the breath condensed, the heavy Wu Earth magic power was like a flood that broke through the dam, instantly breaking through the barrier in front.

The next moment, the body entered a new level, like a sponge soaked in water, and began to greedily absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.

"Wu Tu Kun Yue Gong" was running wildly, constantly compressing and converting the attributeless spiritual energy into heavier Wu Tu mana.

After reaching the eighth level of Qi Refining, the mana in the body was further compressed and became heavier and thicker.

If the mana of other cultivators of the same level is like wood, then Zhou Daocheng's Wu Tu mana is a brick.

Silently feeling the changes in his body, he could clearly feel that after breaking through the eighth level of Qi Refining, his body was nurtured and became more tough and strong.

At the same time, his defense and endurance were also further improved, his breath was long and long, and his organs, blood, skin, and muscles were far superior to ordinary cultivators.

But the only thing that remained unchanged was that his offensive ability was still seriously insufficient, but he became more resistant to beating, but if he wanted to quickly defeat the strong men of the same level, he could only rely on other means.

This was a big regret.

Slowly restraining his breath, he opened his eyes in the dark, and a ray of joy appeared in his eyes.

"I didn't expect that it only took a month to successfully break through the bottleneck!"

This was faster than he had expected, but after thinking about it, he understood the reason.

The advantages brought by the third-level superior technique, "Wu Tu Kun Yue Gong", are too obvious.

In terms of cultivation speed alone, Zhou Daocheng is not fast, it can only be said to be mediocre, but it is stable and solid, which makes it easier to break through the bottleneck in the early stage.

Zhao Yunzhi had reached the peak of the seventh level of Qi Refining a year ago, but was blocked by this bottleneck for a whole year.

A large part of the reason is that Zhao Yunzhi's technique is very poor, it is a broken second-level inferior technique, and it is difficult to practice to the foundation building stage.

This is also the sadness of small families. Even if there are descendants with extremely high talents, there is no fully adapted technique, and the talent can only be wasted in the end.

After the breath stabilized, Zhou Daocheng gathered the spiritual energy around him and ended this retreat.

Since returning a month ago, Zhou Daocheng vaguely felt the opportunity for a breakthrough, so he went into retreat directly, and now he has finally made a successful breakthrough.

With the strength of the eighth level of Qi training, even the strong men of the ninth level of Qi training cannot hurt him, and the two sides can only draw at most.

And as his strength increases, his own abilities are improved in all aspects, including the control of formation skills, and he should be able to officially start to arrange the first-level superior formation.

Zhou Daocheng has been looking forward to the [Hundred Vine Formation] and [Green Spirit Sword Formation] for many days. If he can successfully refine the formation plate, Zhou Daocheng believes that his strength is enough to match the peak of the ninth level of Qi training.

And now he has sufficient funds, equipped with convenient magic tools, talismans, elixirs, and even buys a puppet, then his strength will undergo a qualitative change, and it will be difficult to meet an opponent below the foundation building stage.

If he goes one step further and finds two sets of first-level superior formations suitable for fusion, and successfully uses the "fusion formation" method to create a new formation, then his strength will definitely be stronger.

An ordinary first-level superior formation has the strength comparable to the ninth level of Qi training, and even only needs an eighth-level Qi training strongman to control it to fight against the ninth level of Qi training.

The power of the Fusion Array is even higher. Zhou Daocheng estimated that even if he had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, it would be difficult to defeat himself in the first-grade upper-grade Fusion Array.

But relatively speaking, the arrangement of the first-grade upper-grade array is more difficult, far from being comparable to the first-grade middle-grade and lower-grade arrays.

"This retreat will take a long time, so I'd better come out temporarily. It seems that Lao Meng has something to ask me."

Stretching lazily, Zhou Daocheng chose to end it temporarily and checked the situation of the underground cave.

The quality of the purple-qi green spirit bamboo is still improving. It has stabilized at the second-grade lower grade. The overall thickness is a lot bigger, and there are faint purple lines on the surface of the bamboo pole, which looks extremely extraordinary.

Moreover, the quality of the purple-qi green spirit bamboo is still improving!

The other five green spirit bamboo shoots have also successfully reached the first-grade upper grade recently, which just meets the requirements of the [Green Spirit Sword Array]. As long as the technology is reached, they can start to arrange it smoothly.

The black-patterned lotus in Lingquan's eyes still has only small buds, but the vitality is much richer, but it will take a long time to mature.

While he was looking at it, the communication disk in his arms suddenly vibrated again.

Zhou Daocheng took a look and found that it was a message sent by Meng Yueshan. He only glanced at it twice, and his eyes flashed with light and a thoughtful look emerged.

"The Spirit Snake Sect invites us to open a store together? What's going on?"

Without staying any longer, Zhou Daocheng left the underground cave and headed for the valley behind.

When they arrived, there were only Lin Yuan and several Qi Refining Level 7 masters in the valley.

"Where are Meng Yueshan and Qin Lie?"

Lin Yuan yawned and said, "Qin Lie is still in retreat, Meng Yueshan went to receive the elders of the Spirit Snake Sect."

"Are the elders of the Spirit Snake Sect here?" Zhou Daocheng asked.

"I just came here not long ago, and it seems that they want to discuss some cooperation. I have come here several times before, but I was always evaded by Old Meng. He said that this matter has to wait for you to make a decision."

Zhou Daocheng nodded and put on a black robe.

...

Meng Yueshan sat upright and said in a deep voice: "Elder Han, I can't make a decision on this matter. It still needs the decision of the elders in the sect."

"Then I wonder when your sect elders can come out of retreat?" Han Ye asked anxiously.

The cooperation with Shanhai Sect was a decision made by the sect after a lot of discussions, and it was related to the development direction of the Spirit Snake Sect for a long time in the future.

If it succeeds, the Spirit Snake Sect will usher in a qualitative change, gain extremely rich benefits, and further bind the relationship with the Shanhai Sect.

But he has come five times, and the elders of the Shanhai Sect have been in seclusion, which really makes him anxious.

"Ahem!"

A light cough interrupted the chat.

"Young Master?!" Meng Yueshan blurted out.

Zhou Daocheng's face suddenly froze, and he looked at Meng Yueshan coldly. He is an elder of the sect, what do you mean by calling me Young Master?

Meng Yueshan immediately realized the mistake and was about to explain.

However, before he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Zhou Daocheng, saying: "This matter does not need the elders to decide, just leave it to me."
