Do not die

When he first formed the pill, in order to prevent his identity as "Zhuang Sheng" from attracting too much attention, Meng Zhou chose to appear in front of others as "Ge Ping".

And I was able to form the elixir successfully because of the help from President Pan’s master and apprentice, and the Sanchuan Club also contributed a lot.

In order to prevent President Pan from being estranged from him because of this matter, Meng Zhou briefly revealed some reasons to him.

Although "Zhuang Sheng" himself behaves in a low-key manner, he is in a "place of suspicion."

If there is no pill formation and before it enters the field of vision of all parties, there will be no problem.

But if once he becomes the protagonist of a story that is passed down by mouth like the current "Ge Yaoshi", then the secret prying eyes he will receive will definitely be far greater than now.

In order to strengthen his persuasion, Meng Zhou also vaguely revealed some of the problems between Lu Quan and Qiao Xin to Chairman Pan.

Meng Zhou never expected that President Pan would suddenly come to the door and bring such news.

Although "Zhuang Sheng" has become more and more silent in the past two years, he has no longer participated in the gatherings of foreign monks that are still held regularly, but he does occasionally go out and walk around.

When I meet old friends like Qiao Xin, I will also take the opportunity to get together.

Meng Zhou remembered that the last time we had a small gathering was during the trade fair at the end of September last year. Everyone casually chatted about some interesting things in practice and life.

Meng Zhou never thought that hearing this name again would be in such a situation.

However, after the initial shock, Meng Zhou quickly calmed down.

With thoughts racing in my mind, I asked, "How did you find out?"

President Pan explained: "That's it..."

At first, Qiao Xin, as a foreign monk from Yuling Realm, finally picked up a ready-made item and lived in Lu Quan's farmland.

At the beginning, many people were a little unconvinced.

After Qiao Xin explained the reason, everyone knew why she was able to get this "good deal".

Because she is a second-level beast master, she provided the Sanchuan Society with a formula for beast pills that would help improve the rainfall ability of the black toad in the rainforest.

As a beast master from the spirit realm, it doesn't seem strange at all to have this ability.

Similarly, as a beast master, it is also very reasonable to master a few beasts with natural farming ability and natural rainfall ability.

With such an advantage, everything from plowing to daily rainfall was handled by Qiao Xin's spirit beast, and it was hard for Sanchuan Hui to earn a piece of spirit stone from her in this regard.

Later, all the villages were expanding their spiritual fields, and Qiao Xin also took the opportunity to expand the spiritual fields to 8,000 acres.

It is said that this is the limit of what she can achieve on her own without relying on outside help from the Sanchuan Association.

She has always maintained herself well.

"But in the past two days, a field patrol discovered something was wrong, and the news was quickly reported to me. After violently breaking through the formation and entering, I found Qiao Xin dead in the quiet room."

The world of spiritual practice is not a place where the rule of law is truly harmonious and rules-based. Even in Sanchuan Yuan, there are still Sanchuan Hui secretly happening all the time, and things that cannot be controlled by the main government of Sanchuan Yuan City are happening.

The only thing President Pan and others can do is to ensure the stability of order on the surface and resolutely fight back if anyone maliciously disrupts it.

But there is nothing they can do about the things that happen in the dark.

The landowner of a certain village died inexplicably in his cave. He may have caused his own death, or he may have been harmed by someone else;

Or some farm owners disappear without any reason, abandoning the farmland they have worked hard for many years and disappearing. It may be that they were harmed by others, and their bodies are not seen alive or dead. It is also possible that there are really more important things that require them to leave...

Although such things are rare, similar things always happen every year in the vast Sanchuan Plain.

Faced with such a situation, the Mikawa Society had no intention of trying the case and finding out who the murderer was.

The only thing that the Sanchuan Society cares about is to continue to operate these spiritual fields and ensure that the growth of spiritual plants in the spiritual fields is not affected.

To this end, the Sanchuan Society has also set up a special field patrol team to regularly inspect the growth conditions of spiritual plants in various spiritual fields. Once any abnormal signs are found in a certain spiritual field, it will immediately pay attention to it.

The first step is to communicate with the landlord. If the communication fails, it will be regarded as an accident or even an accident to the landlord. The Sanchuan Society will take over the management of the spiritual field and violently destroy the courtyard of the landlord's retreat to explore the situation.

As the governance of the Sanchuan Plain transitioned from the Sanchuan Hui to the City Lord's Mansion, the rules of the field patrol were also taken over intact, and the original team - that is, the people of the Sanchuan Hui - were still in charge.

Qiao Xin's sudden death was discovered under this process.

"After inspection, it was confirmed that Qiao Xin died late at night three days ago." President Pan said.

"What was the cause of her death?" Meng Zhou asked.

President Pan said in a deep voice:

"On the surface, it seems that she made a mistake in her performance during the period of seclusion, and her magic power flowed backwards, destroying her Dantian, which ultimately led to her death.

...But I don’t believe that’s the reason! "

Having said this, President Pan's expression was extremely solemn. He looked at Meng Zhou and asked, "How should we respond?"

Meng Zhou, who was pondering this matter in his mind, heard this and replied directly without thinking:

"How should we deal with it? Of course, we should follow the formal process and deal with it how we should deal with it."

"Huh?" President Pan's expression froze.

"Since you have confirmed after examination that her death was caused by problems in her practice, what else is there to think about?

It's not like this kind of thing has never happened before. How we dealt with it before will be dealt with this time. "

Hearing this, President Pan's eyes became brighter, and the tense emotions he had felt since entering the cave slowly relaxed.

"President Pan, you just need to remember that from your perspective, there is nothing special about this Qiao Xin.

When dealing with her death, just follow the previous rules and don't do anything superfluous. "Meng Zhou said.

President Pan nodded heavily and said, "I understand!"

After that, he said goodbye and left without waiting for a moment longer.

Originally, he wanted to have some discussions with "Mr. Ge" about Qiao Xin's death, but now he took the initiative to put an end to this idea.

Watching Pan Huiyuan's retreating figure, Meng Zhou's eyes fell into deep thought.

…

That night, late at night.

Meng Zhou quietly escaped from his cave, and also quietly escaped from the core area of ​​the inner city sealed by the third-level high-grade formation.

After quietly escaping, Meng Zhou did not go to Qiao Xin's residence, but moved away in the opposite direction.

It wasn't until he was more than three hundred miles away from Qiao Xin Zhuang's fields that Meng Zhou, who was under the Five Elements Escape and merged with the soil beneath him, stopped.

If given the choice, he would of course be willing to treat Qiao Xin's death as an accidental suicide, as he suggested to President Pan, without delving into the deeper inside story.

But Meng Zhou knew very well that unlike President Pan, there were some things that he couldn't avoid if he wanted to.

At first, through Yue Jing Yuan Guang's ability to look back, Meng Zhou saw how Qiao Xin used a jade sign to attract "Yan Shizun".

Before the "Yan Shizun" left, he sent Qiao Xin a personal mission that he said was easy to complete.

When Qiao Xin heard about his mission, he felt it was incomprehensible and unclear.

But for Meng Zhou, it was like a sudden thunder exploding in his heart.

At that time, Meng Zhou was only 80 to 90% sure, and did not dare to be 100% sure that the real goal of "Yan Shizun" was related to Yaya.

Then, taking into account the incident of Bai Zhi who took the initiative to "deliver goods to the door" during his breakthrough period, Meng Zhou was almost 100% sure.

The real target of this "Yan Shizun" is not only Yaya, but also probably Bai Zhi.

But now, both of them have concluded a life contract with themselves.

This biggest cause and effect has fallen into his own hands as early as the beginning, which cannot be avoided no matter what.

…

Small magical power, transparent moon mirror.

The transparent moon mirror directly brought a courtyard more than three hundred miles away into view, and then locked it in the quiet room.

The viewing radius of the transparent moon mirror can reach 500 miles. In your own cave, you can check the situation of Qiao Xin without leaving home.

The reason for doing this is just to keep a steady hand out of habit and avoid being locked in by some possible means.

At this moment, this quiet room is empty and clean, with nothing special about it.

Obviously, Sanchuan Club has carefully cleaned the place according to normal procedures, removing all personal marks belonging to Qiao Xin, waiting for the next owner to move in.

Therefore, if we only start from "now", no matter how clever the detective is, it is impossible to find any traces from it.

The image in the moon mirror began to move backwards.

Soon, a group of people were seen "backing up" into the quiet room.

Of course, the current image is played backwards, so in the normal timeline, these people are walking out of the quiet room.

Meng Zhou was not surprised by the appearance of these people, because they were responsible for cleaning up and ordering the site.

——As for preserving the scene, what’s the point?

Meng Zhou didn't even stop to watch, and directly ignored what happened during this period.

With the help of the transparent moon mirror, continue to trace back further in time.

Soon, the time in the moon mirror went back a few days.

At a certain moment, Meng Zhou's expression condensed, and he straightened the timeline that was continuously regressing in the moon mirror.

…

In a quiet room.

Qiao Xin was sitting cross-legged on a white jade stone couch, deep in meditation.

At this moment, a storage bracelet on her wrist suddenly had abnormal mana ripples spreading.

Then, without being summoned by her master, a jade token emerged from it and appeared in the quiet room.

On the jade tablet, there was a mysterious stream of light flowing and flickering, and then, it seemed to be connected to a distant place, forming a special passage, and a ghostly shadow appeared in the quiet room.

This person is none other than "Yan Shizun".

At this moment, Meng Zhou had a thought and paused the image in the moon mirror.

Looking at the newly appeared Yan Shizun in the moon mirror, Meng Zhou carefully recalled the previous state when "Yan Shizun" had just been summoned.

Then, Meng Zhou confirmed the judgment that arose in his heart just now.

"The state of Yan Shizun is much worse than when he first came here."

Meng Zhou began to think about the reasons behind this.

"Compared to being summoned by Qiao Xin, his forced arrival will make him suffer a greater price?"

"Or maybe his current state is not good in itself?"

Based on the state of this "Yan Shizun" when he arrived, Meng Zhou had some guesses in his mind.

The paused images in the moon mirror began to flow at normal speed again.

Yan Shizun, who appeared in the quiet room, reached out and pressed Qiao Xin's forehead.

Qiao Xin, who had closed her eyes in concentration, opened her eyes with surprise.

But when she saw "Yan Shizun" standing in front of her with his hand on her forehead, her suspicion turned into panic.

Judging from the change in her eyes, Qiao Xin probably wanted to get up and stay in bed to greet her with a big gift.

But except for her eyes, which could barely move, her entire body was frozen, and she didn't even have facial expressions. She was still in the same state as when she was in deep trance.

It seemed that with the pressing of "Yan Shizun"'s palm, only her eyes and her sea of ​​consciousness awakened, and the rest of her body was still in a state of meditation.

"Yan Shizun" didn't change his expression at all throughout the whole process.

After Qiao Xin was completely awake, he opened his mouth and said:

"How did you complete the task I gave you?"

"Have you completed the mission?"

"Then why haven't you taken the initiative to call me over?"

"What are you hesitating about?"

"Yan Shizun" asked a series of questions one after another. The intervals between questions were very short. Judging from Qiao Xin's reaction, she didn't have time to answer proactively.

"Yan Shizun" jumped directly to the next question as if he already knew the answer to her whereabouts.

This kind of rhythm seems contrary to common sense and looks a bit weird.

It looked like he had worked so hard to get here just to ask her a few questions.

Seeing his performance, Meng Zhou had a suspicion in his heart.

"Is this a form of mind reading?"

"There is no need to force the soul to be searched, and there is no need for the other party to answer.

Just use the guidance of questions to let the target actively collect relevant information in his mind. "

The last question of "Yan Shizun" is more like a self-talk.

"Are you afraid that I will silence you? Haha, you are quite self-aware."

Then, his palm left Qiao Xin's forehead.

Almost at the same time, Qiao Xin's body was like a dynamite barrel with the fuse burning to the end. From her meridians to her dantian, she was overwhelmed and destroyed by her own magic power.

The vitality in Qiao Xin's body quickly extinguished.

"Yan Shizun" didn't even look at him again. He seemed to be thinking about something and his expression was very ugly.

After a while, he looked at the jade plaque hanging in the sky, stretched out his hand and clicked it.

As he pointed his finger on the jade tablet, the jade tablet instantly turned into fine dust and dissipated into the void.

And the figure of "Yan Shizun" also disappeared with the destruction of the jade tablet, bursting like a bubble, as if he had never appeared before.

Come quietly and leave without leaving a trace.

…

Meng Zhou took away the small magical power of the Tongming Moon Mirror, and his consciousness exited the sea of ​​consciousness.

When he used Five Elements Escape to quietly return to his cave, Meng Zhou was still replaying the entire process of "Yan Shizun" from his appearance to his departure over and over in his mind.

Especially between the time after Qiao Xin was silenced and the time when the summoning jade token was destroyed and disappeared into the quiet room, it was obvious that "Yan Shizun" was in a very bad mood.

There were a few times when Meng Zhou even thought that he would directly use foul language.

His bad mood cannot be because of Qiao Xin.

It was some information he gained from Qiao Xin.

Combining some of the inside information that Meng Zhou knew, Meng Zhou guessed that this was probably because Cuiyu Lake had undergone earth-shaking changes after its spiritual veins were upgraded. The information Qiao Xin provided him did not bring him any help.

"It's better if there is no gain."

Although he was a little regretful about Qiao Xin's death, Meng Zhou was still very happy that "Yan Shizun" returned empty-handed.

But he didn't really relax because of this, but this made Meng Zhou wary.

Meng Zhou thought of the hidden dangers in himself.

"Looking at the attitude of 'Yan Shizun', once he can move freely, he will definitely go to Cuiyu Lake to look for clues as soon as possible.

For others, it is impossible to investigate this old incident that disappeared many years ago in a complex environment like Cuiyu Lake.

But for ‘Yan Shizun’, the difficulty is not as great as imagined.

He has the ability to go back in time, and he also holds a lot of source information that I don't know. If he goes to Jade Lake in person, although the process may have twists and turns, in terms of the result, he will definitely be able to find clues. "

"As long as he catches a little clue and follows the thread, he will be able to find me who brought Yaya out of Baiyue Bay."

"If he followed my trajectory at that time, he would naturally be able to find it all the way to Nuanyun Valley, to Qinglinfang, and all the way to Sanchuan Plain."

“Following this line, all my identities will be exposed.

The original person is Meng Zhou, the pharmacist Zhou Meng of Nuanyun Valley, the newly promoted Zhuji Mengzhuang of Qinglinfang, Sanchuan Yuanzhuang Sheng, and Ge Ping. "

In this way, everything about him will no longer be a secret in the eyes of the other party.

When he knew that there was still a way to go back in time in the world, Meng Zhou actually had a hidden worry in his heart.

No matter how amazing his ability in disguise is, there is no secret at all in the eternal river of time.

All his "present" activities will be faithfully recorded in the rich history of time that has no beginning and no end.

As long as someone has the ability to open this "history", all information about him or her will be exposed to the "reader".

Meng Zhou vaguely realized this when he gained the ability to "retrace the round light".

But now, with the two appearances of "Yan Shizun", Meng Zhou was completely aware of this and faced this point squarely.

Meng Zhou's thoughts were racing, thinking about how to solve this problem.

In the end, Meng Zhou thought of two ways to solve the problem.

One way is to "wait and wait."

Lurk at those key nodes and wait quietly for the "silly rabbit" who follows the clues.

Example:

If "Yan Shizun" traces my traces, he will naturally follow my path from Cuiyu Lake to Nuanyun Valley.

I just need to lurk somewhere between these two places and wait quietly for him to come.

It won't solve the problem, but it may solve the problem.

Of course, the shortcomings are also obvious. If someone is strong enough, or even a team, then my behavior is self-defeating.

This method has obvious advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that it can be implemented immediately, but the disadvantage is that it cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

In addition, the second method that Meng Zhou thought of was much more thorough.

This second method is to "draw fire from the bottom of the cauldron".

Meng Zhou already had a deep enough understanding of the ability to look back in time.

The past that it looks back on is not the past that actually happened.

But it is only the "past" that is deduced and deduced through the "now".

Meng Zhou believes that although everything that has happened in the past cannot be changed, the "past" that can be traced back through various means can.

Just like an objective event that has happened cannot be changed, but the video captured by a camera can.

All retrospection capabilities do not really go back to the past, but just watch the video of the "past" through a special camera.

This leaves a lot of room for maneuver.

Meng Zhou had already thought of two rough "operation methods".

One is to use swordsmanship to directly cut off the traces related to yourself in a certain area, or more simply, cut off all traces of the "past" in the area.

In this way, if you use the backtracking ability in this area, you will only see a white and clean land.

The second method is the knot method.

Compared with the direct and rough swordsmanship, the knotting method can be more delicate.

If the sword technique is like "one-click deletion" or an irreversible mosaic, the pursuer will know at a glance that there is a problem, a big problem.

Then the knot method is like PS skills, which can perform more precise operations. As long as the technique is good enough, not only can you pick yourself clean, but also make people unable to discover the existence of the problem.

"This is the true meaning of Knot Master being able to read history." Thinking of this, Meng Zhou couldn't help but think so.

In the past, I was curious about what a knot master was. Yaya once said that some knot masters have the ability to read history.

At that time, the picture in Meng Zhou's mind was of knotting ropes to record events, and the knotter traced the past through the records of rope knots.

But now, Meng Zhou has a new understanding of this "reading history".

If we can really do this, we can not only "read history", but also "tamper with history."

After carefully weighing it, Meng Zhou had some thoughts in mind.

“These two methods have the same goal, but they are obviously progressive.

The sword technique is simpler and more direct, but it is much more difficult to achieve this with the knot method.

Therefore, the correct approach should be to first consider the sword technique and then consider the knot technique later. "

"I have just completed my training in the Unbounded Sword Realm. My Qinglian Sword Body has also been greatly improved. It feels hot in my hand. I have also gained a lot of insights into the way of swordsmanship. It is just the right time to get started with such a swordsmanship."

After returning to the quiet room, Meng Zhou did not immediately start to study this new swordsmanship, but to refine the weapon.

Meng Zhou spent ten days refining the two third-grade high-grade spiritual materials, one piece of spiritual gold and one piece of lightning-strike wood, into two third-grade high-grade flying swords.

Meng Zhou himself refined the flying sword made of lightning strike wood for a while and then used it, then put it into the sea of ​​​​consciousness with satisfaction.

But in terms of absolute power, this flying sword made of lightning wood is much worse than the other flying sword made of spiritual gold.

The reason why he chose it was because this sword was more compatible with the Unbounded Sword Domain and could achieve mutual success.

Then, Meng Zhou took out all the third-level spiritual materials he had accumulated.

A third-level mid-level robe and six third-level mid-level spiritual puppets were made using the knot weaving method.

Whether it is a magic robe or a spirit puppet, although they are only of third-order mid-grade quality due to the materials used, due to the solid materials and exquisite skills, they are not much worse than ordinary third-order high-grade magic weapons. .

A third-level high-quality flying sword, a third-level mid-level robe, and six third-level mid-level spiritual puppets were all put into a storage bag by Meng Zhou.

After thinking about it, Meng Zhou took a full 10,000 high-grade spiritual stones and put them into it.

The third-level mid-grade spirit puppet has nothing to say in terms of combat ability or independent ability, but its consumption of spirit stones is equally terrifying.

As long as they are activated, all of them will be big furnaces burning spiritual stones.

Meng Zhou was not sure whether he could use it, but he was short of everything else in his hand, except for the spiritual stones. Now it seemed that the number of high-grade spiritual stones had accumulated to more than 20,000, and he was approaching 30,000.

Withdrawing 10,000 yuan, Meng Zhou didn't feel any pressure.

…

After doing all this, Meng Zhou took the storage bag and walked out of the quiet room and came to the waterside pavilion.

He threw the storage bag in his hand to the open space by the pond.

Before the storage bag even hit the ground, a hand grew out of the ground and held the storage bag firmly in his hand.

Soon, the clone of the third-level mid-level Earth Spirit Golden Lotus stood there.

Meng Zhou stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the air, grabbing a "divine soul clone" that was two-in-one and could freely control the third-level mid-grade spiritual lotus clone.

And as this group of "spiritual clones" was withdrawn, the clone that was still both physical and spiritual suddenly turned into an empty shell, standing there quietly.

Meng Zhou focused his attention on the "spiritual clone" in his hand, scattered all the thoughts originally injected into it, injected new mission goals, and gave "him" more power to make independent decisions.

After doing it, he put this ball of divine soul clones back into the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone.

In an instant, the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone seemed to truly come to life.

"He" opened his eyes, looked at Meng Zhou, respectfully cupped his hands and said, "Then I'll go."

Meng Zhou said: "Don't rush for a day or two. You can first practice the things I prepared for you."

"Okay." The Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone responded directly.

Then, he sank into the ground below again.

One day later, after completing the refining of the flying sword, robe, and six spirit puppets, the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone quietly left.

Although the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone could not completely inherit Meng Zhou's "Five Elements Escape", the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone can also use all the escape techniques mastered by Meng Zhou at will, but it is not as smooth and smooth as Meng Zhou's. .

And this clone's attainments in the Earth Escape are particularly outstanding. It is no less impressive than Meng Zhou's real body. There is no trace left, and it seems to be truly integrated with the earth.

It was clearly passing by, but even if there were monks of the same level standing on the ground, they would not notice anything unusual.

Moreover, the speed of escaping underground is faster than escaping by turning into a rainbow in the sky, and consumes very little, and can even be continuously replenished by the majestic earth's power.

For the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone, the earth seems to be "his" real sky.

"He" escaping in the vast land is like an eagle fighting against the sky thousands of miles away.

Meng Zhou sat cross-legged in the waterside pavilion and sensed it carefully.

When the local spirit golden lotus clone was still within the range of Sanchuanyuan's spiritual veins, he could clearly feel its presence.

With this inductive connection, he can take over this clone at any time.

This is his direct connection with the Linglian clone.

As the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus avatar left the range of Sanchuan Yuan's spiritual veins and was more than a thousand miles away from where he was, this connection quickly decreased.

This means that if he still wants to take over the Linglian clone through his induction, his control will decrease rapidly as the distance increases.

Until two thousand miles away, the connection with Linglian's clone became extremely dim.

This kind of induction can only provide him with a rough direction judgment.

However, although the reaction to the Linglian clone has faded, the connection to the "spirit clone" is still clear.

And this feeling has not faded at all as the distance increases.

Meng Zhou guessed that even this connection between the soul and thoughts would be limited by distance.

But the scale of this distance is far beyond the aura induction between the Linglian clone.

The Lihen Sect's lair that he and Ding Ning jointly destroyed was tens of thousands of miles away from the Sanchuan Plain.

As for the monk who controlled the soul to seize the body of a fake elixir and sneaked into Sanchuan Plain to cause trouble, his level in all aspects was far from being comparable to his own.

In terms of cultivation, no.

In terms of magic power, no.

As for the soul, no.

There is no comparison at all in terms of mastering the soul art of distraction and separation.

The other person is still wandering between entry and initial success, while he has already reached perfection and reached perfection.

What the other party can do, he can naturally do too, and he can do it better.

Only half a day later, the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone traveled tens of thousands of miles and quietly sneaked into the vicinity of Jade Lake.

The "he" who was lurking underground circled the 800-mile Cuiyu Lake twice. After getting a preliminary understanding of the surroundings of the Cuiyu Lake, he transformed into water escape deep underground and merged into the Cuiyu Lake silently. in the waters.

Soon, Meng Zhou crossed hundreds of miles of water and arrived at a place.

Ahead, a small island that looks like a crescent moon comes into my mind.

Looking at this small island, Meng Zhou, who was tens of thousands of miles away and was sitting cross-legged in the waterside pavilion, couldn't help but feel a little ripple in his heart.

"White Moon Bay."

Just when Meng Zhou was sighing in his heart, the clone of the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus had transformed from Water Escape to Earth Escape deep under the water, and merged into the small island of Baiyue Bay.

The spiritual energy upgrade plan of Emerald Lake is different from that of Sanchuan Plain. The abundant spiritual energy stored in the eight hundred miles of water is all concentrated on the largest Emerald Island in the center.

Only Jade Island has been completely changed.

In other areas, what it was like before is still how it is now.

The biggest difference is that the number of practitioners in Baiyue Bay now far exceeds that when Meng Zhou visited.

At the beginning, the Bay Head area, where the spiritual energy quality was the best, was occupied by a family force, and other monks could only live in the two designated streets at the end of the Bay.

In other areas, even if there is a large amount of open space, outsiders are strictly prohibited from occupying and using it, otherwise they will be severely punished by the Bayhead family.

But now, there is no distinction between the head and the tail of the bay. The entire Baiyue Bay has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Except that the outline and shape of Baiyue Bay itself has not changed, Meng Zhou can no longer find any trace of the original place.

Even the stone wall engraved with knots and hundreds of techniques has been artificially bulldozed, and no traces are left.

The Earth Spirit Jinlian cloned himself and came to the end of the original bay. The two simple and crowded streets in his memory had long disappeared, and they had all turned into a large elixir garden.

The original Grandma Bai's grocery store was also part of this elixir garden.

The monks on the island all live in the bay head and bay hinterland areas where the quality of spiritual energy is the best.

After having a rough understanding of the situation on the island, the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone quietly lurked in the Wanwei Spiritual Medicine Garden.

In this spiritual medicine garden, there happens to be a first-level quality dry land spiritual lotus.

The avatar of the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus blended into the soil, as if returning to its hometown. All the breath was completely covered, without even a trace leaking out.

"Now, let's see if any silly rabbit comes to the door."

"Of course, that silly rabbit might be me."

Meng Zhou certainly considered this possibility, but he still chose to do so without hesitation.

Even if it turns out that he was the stupid rabbit who came to the door, it still makes sense to do so.

This is equivalent to an early warning device, a fuse. Once it is touched by someone, he himself will immediately react.

It allows him to respond in advance, which is much more accurate and reliable than a vague sense of good or bad luck.

If his past trajectory is a line, then the most easily exposed points are the two ends of the line. They are like the shields for practitioners of martial arts, they are the most vulnerable and fatal places.

Now, his real body is sitting at the "present end", and the earth spirit Jinlian is stationed at the "past end".

Any attempt to clarify this line will alert him immediately, allowing him to know what happened and make the most appropriate response.

Although this method is passive, it is still better than having someone secretly follow the "past end" of the thread and thoroughly find out his roots.

After the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone completely fell silent in the elixir garden of Baiyue Bay, Meng Zhou finally recovered his thoughts.

He looked around, but his first feeling was, "Hey, there are not enough clones."

That third-level Lihen statue, with its masterless divine will lingering in it, provided him with four groups of divine soul clones, the quality of which was equivalent to the third-level low-grade.

In order to drive the third-level middle-grade Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone, two of them were combined into one, which improved the quality but also reduced the quantity.

Now, there are only three soul clones.

One group performed "Zhuang Sheng" in Zhuangtianzhuang, another group performed "Song Yang" not far away, and the other group stayed at Baiyue Bay, Jade Lake tens of thousands of miles away.

Everyone has their own place to go, and he doesn't even have a backup by his side.

For the first time, Meng Zhou felt nostalgic for the Lihen Cult.

If he had more divine soul clones, he could have more spiritual lotus clones, and his plan could be more thorough.

"Actually, the identity of 'Zhuang Sheng' doesn't mean much to me now.

If necessary, it is also possible to arrange for him to take a curtain call. "

"Similarly, although the identity of 'Song Yang' is of great value to me, it is not indispensable.

If necessary, it is also possible to ask him to withdraw. "

With this thought in his mind, Meng Zhou temporarily suppressed these thoughts and began to immerse himself in the comprehension of the new swordsmanship.

work overtime
