Do not die

From the ninth day of November when Meng Zhou entered the Refining Furnace Wasteland to the end of December, what Meng Zhou did was no different from what he did in the Hongze Wasteland.

With the experience of Hongze Wasteland, Meng Zhou behaved more calmly from beginning to end.

Not only did he complete the set task on time, because he had more time than that time in Hongze Wasteland, but also because he waited for half a month in Xingxiu Sea before entering the Refining Furnace Wasteland, Meng Zhou was completely "doing nothing" status.

By the end of the year, when Meng Zhou ended all activities and prepared for the upcoming New Year's retreat, the "Wanxiang Pearl" had made great progress compared to when it just left the wild land of Hongze.

A new skill experience of 130,000 points in the Master Realm has been added, making this skill more accumulated in the Master Realm.

[Master of Wanxiang Pearl 188,000/1.6 million]

At the same time, with the continuous supply of a large amount of high-quality heart essence and blood, the individual strength of the golden beetle swarm has risen from the level of the third-level high-grade, which is only equivalent to the seventh-level pill formation, to a level comparable to the ninth-level pill formation. To such an extent, he is already very close to the third level peak.

The price for achieving such an astonishing achievement in just a few months was that Meng Zhou's eighth level of alchemy was almost never interrupted. Over time, all the essence and blood accumulated in the spirit gourd space were consumed.

Now, the remaining heart essence and blood in the Linghu Space are all accumulated by Meng Zhou after he broke through the ninth level of pill formation. The reserve is greater than the heart essence and blood accumulated during the eighth level of pill formation, which has been exhausted. Much more.

Meng Zhou weighed it in his mind. Judging from the previous consumption of these golden beetles, he felt that it was enough for the golden beetles to reach the peak level of the third level anyway.

"It's enough, there should be a lot of surplus... Besides, there are still four or five years left, and I can continue to provide more of my heart's blood!"

Thinking like this, Meng Zhou felt completely at peace in his heart. When he was about to reach the end of his ninety-fourth year and was in sight of his ninety-fifth year, he entered a deep state of concentration.

Soon after, as a mysterious power moistened everything and silently penetrated into every corner of the world, the world seemed to be refreshed and entered a new year.

And Meng Zhou was in this state, hiding in a small pink lotus. With the help of this mysterious power, the essence, energy and spirit cooperated, connected, circulated and refined with each other, and his cultivation was in the process. Lifting up step by step with a slow but firm pace.

In the blink of an eye, one month passed.

When Meng Zhou opened his eyes again, it was late at night on the thirtieth day of the first lunar month.

…

[Cultivation progress +720, nine levels of elixir formation 7485/10,000]

…

After finishing this retreat, Meng Zhou just sorted things out a little and then took action immediately.

He left the "lotus space", put away the gold-powder double-stemmed lotus, and after cleaning all the ends as much as possible, Meng Zhou left the hiding place where he had lived for nearly three months.

After leaving this third-level evil vein, Meng Zhouzheng used "Five Elements Escape" and rushed to another third-level evil vein more than 200,000 miles away at an astonishing speed.

Meng Zhou hurried on his way, but most of his thoughts were on the newly added area in the "Interpretation World".

From the day Meng Zhou came to this area on the ninth day of November last year, after finding a suitable place to live, Meng Zhou immediately arranged for fifty Tai Sui bodies, and they started "Old Capital" "OK" and spread the "Visual Anchor Point" throughout the Refining Furnace Wasteland as quickly as possible.

Then Meng Zhou arranged one hundred and eighty "transparent round mirrors".

By mid-December, the fifty Tai Sui bodies completed their missions as scheduled and returned one after another. With the support of the "vision anchor" that spread throughout the Furnace Wasteland, the "Transparent Round Mirror" completely transformed the Furnace Wasteland. The entire domain lights up in the "interpretation world" and is constantly refreshed.

After that, even during Meng Zhou's one-month retreat, the "transparent round mirrors" were still moving along fixed trajectories in the furnace wasteland. The area in the "deduction world" corresponding to the furnace wasteland, It is also constantly being replaced and refreshed.

Up to now, although Meng Zhou has only entered the Furnace Wasteland for less than three months, he can already boast that "no one knows the Furnace Wasteland better than me."

At this moment, the reason why Meng Zhou left the third-level evil vein that had provided him with shelter for nearly three months and went to a strange third-level evil vein was that the reason for him was very simple. He came from the Refining Furnace Wasteland. Overall, the latter is closer to the center, while the former is much further to the edge.

Soon, Meng Zhou arrived at the destination.

Although the "Deduction World" provided detailed information that was almost the same as the real world for reference, Meng Zhou still spent several days doing a quick visit and investigation on the third-level evil vein he selected.

After making sure that all the conditions of this evil vein were consistent with what the "Deduction World" provided to him, Meng Zhou began to take the next step.

The fifty Tai Sui bodies that had just rested in the Linghu space for more than a month were summoned out by Meng Zhou again.

After summoning these Tai Sui bodies, Meng Zhou did not immediately arrange for "them" to go out. Instead, he took out the clusters of soul clones from the eyebrows of each Tai Sui body, dispersed the original thoughts, and gave them Inject new "programs".

During this process, fifty Tai Sui bodies were like fifty terracotta warriors and horses, with identical faces, lined up in a neat queue, standing there motionless.

Another figure who looked exactly like "them" walked slowly among them, stopping and stopping, reaching out to grab and pat "them" between their eyebrows from time to time. It looked weird and creepy.

Meng Zhou, the person involved, didn't feel anything about this, nor did he think there was anything wrong with it.

After giving a comprehensive "update" of instructions to the fifty Tai Sui body soul clones, Meng Zhou waved his hand to let these Tai Sui bodies disperse and do their own thing.

After being ordered to disperse, the fifty Tai Sui bodies, which were originally identical in shape and face, rapidly changed, becoming taller, shorter, fatter, thinner, older, smaller, and even female...

While each of them underwent different changes, some escaped to the ground, some flew into the sky, and some were already flashing quickly among the rugged rocks, disappearing without a trace.

These Tai Sui bodies scattered in all directions did not move too far away.

Several of them even stopped within Meng Zhou's sight.

The "they" who stopped seemed to use various methods towards the ground below casually.

Some of them stamped their feet on the ground, and the steady and deep soil force became active under their mobilization, or turned into winding dark ditches and open grooves, or bulged into strips, straight lines, or various windings. Meandering lines.

Or it could create a deep pit like a well, some shallower and some deeper.

Or raise a solitary peak with towering rocks...

And this is only part of the many behaviors of the fifty Tai Sui body.

Either expand or shrink some of the existing terrain, or make the existing terrain more prominent, more conspicuous, or more hidden and difficult to detect through clever arrangements...

Because all the actions of these Tai Sui bodies are based on the original third-level evil veins and taken advantage of the situation, this not only saves the Tai Sui body's strength, but also makes all these changes appear very inconspicuous.

Even if a monk from this world who claims to have a deep understanding of this evil vein comes to the scene in person, unless he has a method similar to "deducing the world", it will be difficult to detect this seemingly unchanged third-level evil vein. In fact, things have changed quietly.

As the fifty Tai Sui bodies spread further and further, this change quickly spread throughout this third-level evil vein.

Meng Zhou stood still and didn't move.

He looked at the appearance of the third-level evil vein in the "Deduction World" after it was continuously updated.

After being "fine-tuned" by fifty Tai Sui bodies, the third-level evil veins gradually took on the exquisite feel of uncut jade that has been carved day after day.

From the perspective of a fourth-level mid-level spiritual master, the third-level evil veins after "fine-tuning" are like a river that has been dredged;

From the perspective of a fourth-level mid-level knot master, the lines meandering on the ground are like the movement of ropes. The depressions and ridges are the formations formed by the "ropes" wandering on the ground. a "knot";

Looking at the fourth-level mid-level talisman array, the "fine-tuned" third-level evil veins naturally fit the mysteries of the talisman array;

If you look at it from the perspective of cultivation, the third-level evil meridians after "fine-tuning" are forming their own "meridians" and "acupoints"...

As early as when Meng Zhou was still in the Juye wilderness, Meng Zhou had already practiced a large number of first- and second-level spiritual vein upgrades.

Meng Zhou's current vision, both in terms of height and breadth of vision, is incomparable to what he had back then.

Not to mention that the upgrade of first- and second-order spiritual veins can be easily grasped, but if any third-order spiritual vein is placed in front of him, it won't take long for him to come up with a clear upgrade plan.

——Of course, the success of the upgrade also depends on the quality and foundation of the spiritual vein itself.

And is there any fundamental difference between spiritual veins and evil veins?

Not really.

Although the upgrade plan for the spiritual veins cannot be copied as it is, it can be directly copied and used on the evil veins.

But for Meng Zhou, all he had to do was make a simple change and apply all the experience he had accumulated in upgrading his spiritual veins to the upgrading of his evil veins.

…

Meng Zhouxing was walking in the third-level evil veins after being "fine-tuned".

From time to time, there will be some more items in his hand, which he will throw into the earth below.

Some of these items are spiritual materials of various grades, and there are also artifacts of different grades and functions.

These things were all saved by Meng Zhou when he was in the Juye wilderness, and most of them came from the Lihen Sect's collection of pills.

Except for very few of these things that can catch Meng Zhou's eyes, most of them are treated no differently from "trash" here by Meng Zhou.

Every time he took inventory of the spirit gourd space, Meng Zhou had the idea of ​​​​disposing of these "garbage". However, as the Xingxiu Palace came out, in order to avoid unnecessary troubles caused by these items with the characteristics of the Lihen Sect's mark, Meng Zhou decided to Zhou also gave up the idea, and the "garbage" has been accumulated until now.

Now, when the opportunity was right, Meng Zhou threw them into the evil veins below without any hesitation.

As for the specific items he invested, it actually doesn't matter.

At Meng Zhou's current height, he has already reached the state of "looking at mountains is not mountains, and looking at water is not water".

In his eyes, those spiritual materials, or other various equipment and items, are only "spiritual" and "firewood".

As for what "shape" is, it doesn't matter at all.

Ten days later, fifty Tai Sui bodies completed the "fine-tuning and reshaping" of the entire third-level evil vein.

Then, under the command of Meng Zhou, "they" used various local resources and relied on the naturally generated spirituality to make the final "consolidation" of the third-level evil veins that had completed "fine-tuning and reshaping". Cui Yuan, correcting Qi."

Ten days later, Meng Zhou finished all the work.

In "The World of Interpretation", Meng Zhou looked at the third-order evil vein that he had reshaped from a macro perspective.

This third-level evil vein located in the center of the Refining Furnace Wasteland, in his eyes, turned into a magical "Dan Tian".

Meng Zhou imitated it in his mind.

In the "Deduction World", as Meng Zhou's thoughts changed, the charm of this third-order evil vein began to flow smoothly along the "meridians".

In this constant circulation, the charm of the third-level evil veins becomes active and rises little by little.

They meet, merge and condense in each of the "acupoints".

Finally, they completed their final "reunion" in a canyon basin in the center of the third-order evil vein.

In an instant, the entire evil vein seemed to be different.

At this point, according to Meng Zhou's deduction, the third-level evil veins will be successfully upgraded to the fourth-level evil land.

But looking at this result, Meng Zhou didn't feel happy in his heart.

"Is this a success?"

"Is it really that simple?"

Meng Zhou asked in his mind, falling into deep thought.

After a long time, Meng Zhou took a long breath.

It's really not that simple.

However, the situation is not too bad.

"If everything is an ideal situation, then things will indeed develop in the direction I deduced."

"And here's the problem. The prerequisite for success is that everything is in the 'ideal state' like when I deduced it. But in real life, this is simply impossible."

"First, I have to make sure it makes it to the final step!"

"It's still too risky to rely on it to absorb its own nutrition. I need to incorporate more third-level evil veins into it and make them all "refueling bottles"!

Make sure that this evil vein does not fail to reach the end due to exhaustion. "

"Secondly, the upgrade process needs to be accelerated on the current basis!"

“From start to finish, the shorter the time, the better!”

"If the interval is too long, it may be forcibly interrupted by the arrival of the Nascent Soul from the Constellation Palace."

"Even if the Nascent Soul from the Constellation Palace has not arrived, if the anomalies here attract the attention of this world's core formation, it will also bring about variables beyond deduction."

"The best way to eliminate these surprises is to make the entire process faster than they can react."

"By the time they react and understand what happened, this evil vein has been upgraded!" (End of Chapter)
