The Grand Void – Becoming a Dragon

Eastern Yuan Realm, Seventh Mansion, Valley.

Everything in Zhuang's firm is ready.

Shuang Ling's household registration has been sent to an official school.

"As long as you look good enough, you can be promoted from the Valley Academy to the Seventh Academy, directly under Taiyuanzong."

"However, the schools in the Eastern Yuan Realm are government-owned after all. On the surface it is the Great Chu Dynasty, but behind it is Taiyuanzong."

"Taiyuanzong wants to recruit talented roots and seedlings as the future inheritance of the sect, and the Great Chu Dynasty also wants to recruit outstanding people to serve the court."

"Fu Lao and I have already prepared for you to enter Taiyuanzong and avoid being intercepted by the Great Chu Dynasty. In this regard, you don't need to think too much, just try your best to show your talents, especially at the level of refining medicine. Talent and learning will make Tai Yuanzong pay more attention to it."

Zhuang Ming said slowly: "Longjun is powerful and is the pillar of the Zhuang family's business, but the vast business has power all over the world. This power is so strong that it can stand undefeated like a mountain, but it may be difficult to support it alone, beyond the reach of the whip. Being able to fully control the situation in all directions may not be able to quell the chaos in time. And if you can become a master of alchemy, then everyone in the Zhuang family business will be able to grow stronger in the future, not just relying on the power of the Dragon King... As long as the foundation is strong, in any event, I can take care of everything, so I can rest assured.”

Shuang Ling bowed deeply and said, "Shuang Ling understands."

Zhuang Ming said seriously: "I have high hopes for you, don't let me down."

Shuang Ling looked solemn and nodded heavily.

The road ahead is boundless, she is about to go to a strange place, she is about to face strangers, the girl who has never left the son's side, at this moment, apart from reluctance to part with her, she also has complicated emotions such as anxiety, restlessness, and apprehension.

But this trip is related to the future of Zhuang's business, and it is also a road that the young master cultivated her for several years and laid the foundation. No matter what, she can't waste the cultivation and trust of the young master.

Zhuang Ming took her hand, pointed in the direction of Dongsheng Dynasty, and said: "You are not old, and it is difficult for me to put such a heavy burden on you, but under the command of my Zhuang's firm, with so many people, what I have done Among the trusted confidantes, only you have the talent for refining medicine, or in other words, among the people with the talent for refining medicine in the huge Zhuang family firm of the Dongsheng Dynasty, only you can win my trust..."

Shuang Ling bit her lip and said, "Master, I believe in Shuang Ling, and Shuang Ling will not disappoint you."

Zhuang Ming nodded and said: "Of course I believe in you, and you have never let me down. Remember, if you go to Taiyuanzong to study art, if you have any needs, you can send a message to Zhuang's firm, but other than that, the rest of the matter , no matter what the rumor is, don’t pay attention to it, and you don’t need your help, you have to practice the exercises wholeheartedly, learn the art of alchemy.”

Speaking of this, Zhuang Ming was a little dignified, and said: "However, when you are learning the art of alchemy, there is one thing that you can pay attention to in the study of alchemy."

Shuang Ling hurriedly responded: "My lord, please tell me."

Zhuang Ming said: "As for the damaged dantian, there is no cure in the world. It is a dead end in practice. When you enter Taiyuanzong, you should pay attention to the restoration of the damaged dantian."

Shuang Ling was stunned for a moment, as if thinking of something, she hurriedly looked at Young Master.

Zhuang Ming said calmly: "That's right, my dantian is damaged and my practice is hindered. If there is this method, it will be useful to me."

Although he has embarked on the road of transforming into a dragon, he can only cultivate the body of an ancient real dragon before he grows old.

Life is short, a hundred years is a long lifespan, and an ordinary mortal's life is only a few decades. For Zhuang Ming, it is too short to cultivate the body of a real dragon within this age.

If you can resume your practice, you can refine the golden elixir, and your life expectancy will be hundreds of years old, then the sense of urgency will be relieved a lot.

In addition, his own strength is too weak now, and when he controls the dragon to fight against the enemy, it is an extremely fatal and obvious flaw.

"My lord..." Shuang Ling couldn't help clenching her palms, and said in a low voice, "Is there a way to cure Tai Yuanzong?"

"No." Zhuang Ming said calmly: "Currently in Taiyuanzong, there is no single medicine that can cure this injury."

"Then..." Shuang Ling looked up at him.

"It's just a thought." Zhuang Ming said lightly: "The alchemy of the Taiyuan Sect's lineage in Haoda Dongzhou can be regarded as well-known and passed down in ancient times. Although there is no elixir in their sect, there is still All kinds of ancient books, all kinds of prescriptions, are as vast as the sea, so there may not be no methods, but because of the countless books, it is impossible for the disciples of Taiyuanzong to read all the classics... You don't need to invest too much energy in this area, you can still use it Cultivation and alchemy are the most important, and usually you only need to pay attention when learning alchemy recipes."

"Yes, young master." Shuang Ling lowered her head, but the light in her eyes was very firm.

"Okay, it's time to leave." Zhuang Ming said.

"Hmm..." Shuang Ling's eye circles were slightly red, unable to hide her reluctance.

"The world is so vast, you have to see more and learn more."

Having said this, Zhuang Ming turned his head and said, "You two, take good care of Shuang Ling for me."

Qing Niang and Hong Gu bowed down together and said: "My lord, don't worry, even if the two of us lay down our lives, we will protect Miss Shuangling well."

Zhuang Ming nodded. The two of them had obtained the elixir, and both had entered the third level of martial arts. Although they were not as powerful as Lu He, they had reached the pinnacle of martial arts in the world after all, no less than the upper class of Daoyin.

"Young master, take care."

"You also take care."

Zhuang Ming waved his hand, watched her slowly board the carriage, and saw her reluctant expression, finally sighed in his heart.

In the past few years, this girl has served him with food and living, and followed him day and night, it can be said that she lives for him.

Humans are not plants, so how could they be ruthless? Although he is a practitioner, he is not hard-hearted. Seeing her leave now, he still feels depressed.

"My son..."

Shuang Ling sat on the carriage, slowly bent her legs, hugged her knees, buried her head down, her shoulders trembled, her voice gradually became lower and intermittent, appearing vague, "Young Master, take care..."

——

Valley, firm.

Zhuang Ming inspected all kinds of shops in his house.

During the Dongsheng Dynasty, walking was inconvenient, but now that he has good legs and feet, he is happy to walk around.

Now it is Yue Ting who stabilizes the Valley Trading Company.

The Six Places Commercial Firm originally had the highest prestige among the four veterans of the Dongsheng Dynasty, Fu Lao, Yue Ting, Zheng Yuanshan, and Yuan Tao. Now that Zheng Yuanshan and Yuan Tao died, Fu Lao stayed in the Eighth Mansion, the three places in the Seventh Mansion, It was Yue Ting who came to sit in the town, and Bai Qing and Liu He helped him.

"My lord, there's a summons from Fangdi." Yue Ting said in a low voice.

"How to say?"

"Fangdi government, ask us, when will we take over that area?"

"The money is coming." Zhuang Ming laughed, and said: "Allocate manpower and accept it, but in terms of silver, we still need to raise money. Let Master Fang Dizheng delay it for a while."

"Yes..." Yue Ting hesitated: "What about the construction? It is said that there was originally a mountain, and only an official road was built on the side of the mountain. Now it is in ruins. If it is to be built, it may cost a lot of money. Now we are going to build it. Expansion, afraid of lack of stamina..."

"It's okay, Mr. Fu and I will discuss it carefully." Zhuang Ming said calmly.

"Yes." Yue Ting knew that he was not very familiar with business, and he didn't say much, and said: "Besides, last time I sent the hat to the Zhao family in the Nanyuan Realm, Lord Lu secretly gave it to King Jing's subordinates. The news spread, and it was heard that at noon today, King Jing had already left for the Nanyuan Realm. From this point of view, it seems that after receiving the news, his subordinates had already visited the Nanyuan Realm and confirmed that the crown bestowed by the emperor was in the Zhao family Otherwise, King Jing would not easily leave the place where he lost the crown bestowed on him."

"Since King Jing is going out in person, the Zhao family may be busy. As long as we can grasp it, this is the time for us to enter the Nanyuan Realm." Zhuang Ming put his hands behind his back and said, "Stay here, the matter about the Nanyuan Realm Fu Lao and I need to continue discussing things... Now that Shuang Ling has gone to the academy, you should also pay attention to the academy."

"Understood." Yue Ting said so, and said: "Is the young master returning to Jiangdi today?"

"That's right." Seeing him asking such a question, Zhuang Ming immediately laughed and said, "What's the matter?"

"In the interrogation just now, it was mentioned that the Master of the Palm Printing Mansion is still there."

"Oh?" Zhuang Ming pondered: "Fang's matter is a big deal for the local government, but it's nothing for him, the palm print mansion. What is he still doing in Fang's place?"

"It is said that he is waiting for the young master." Yue Ting said.

"Wait for me?" Zhuang Ming frowned.

"I just want to talk about the palm seal mansion, please stop the young master at the place when he returns home, he wants to meet the young master in person." Yue Ting said: "But I don't know what is going on, and I haven't set a specific time."

Eighth House.

place.

Old Daoist Feng Lun looked strange, looking at the robe on the table.

This set of robes is of a very high grade, higher than his previous robes and the current official robes.

I'm afraid that the ordinary inner disciples of Gui Yuanzong may not be able to get such a magic robe, only the three major true disciples have such a body protection.

"It's really old-fashioned..."

Feng Lun breathed out lightly, remembering that this robe was from the hands of the elder Guanhuo of the Zhenxuan series, and it was about to fall into the hands of the thirteen disciples of Jusheng Mountain. , has become dull.

"This dharma robe is so precious, is it just a meeting gift?"

Feng Lun whispered leisurely, with a complicated tone, and said: "But, you clearly never saw his face..."

This meeting ceremony, which I have never met before, always feels that there is something wrong?

——

Middle Yuan Realm.

Great Chu King City.

Bachelor's House.

Today is the last day for sorting the Dongzhou Outstanding Talents List and the Tianyu Outstanding Talents List.

Tomorrow the list will be announced outside the Great Chu Dynasty.

But today, the atmosphere is still a little weird and stagnant.

That's all for the Tianyu Renjie List, there is no change.

But how to rank Dongzhou outstanding people list?

"Defeating Bai Li is not due to Zhuang Ming's own strength, so...doesn't he need to be on the list?"

"But after all, he belongs to the younger generation. Now that he has defeated Bai Li, it seems that he can't be justified if he doesn't make it to the list of outstanding people?"

"But this is on the list of outstanding people, so it's even more unreasonable?"

"This Zhuang Ming is really embarrassing..."

The middle-aged man smiled wryly and said: "Accordingly, he doesn't need to be on the list, but he defeated Bai Li again, and it's not a secret. Among the younger generation, he will definitely become famous. He is not on the list, so it is inevitable that some people will question this list of outstanding people in Dongzhou."

Next to him was an old man in sixties, stroked his beard and said: "But his own strength is unknown, defeating Bai Li depends entirely on the strength of his mount Jiaolong, if he is on the list, he will be questioned."

Everyone fell silent again.

This is a bit of a headache.

But at this moment, an old voice suddenly came from inside.

"Put this person's name on the top of Bai Li's position, and he will be ranked thirty-sixth on the list of outstanding people in Dongzhou."
