Chapter 2342 His Dilemma
Zhou Shu nodded, "I want it."
The guard was stunned for a moment before calling for the steward.
When trading with the steward, the steward returned two pieces of immortal jade, "Fellow Taoist, seven dollars is enough. The host said that no matter what you buy in Baiyujing today, we will give you 30%."
The manager's demeanor was very respectful, thinking that Zhou Shu was some kind of big shot. No wonder, Bai Yujing always gave the real price, and almost never had any discounts. Even if he did, it would only be a half-percent profit. This time, he would directly give a 30% profit. The discount is unbelievable.
Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, and said thoughtfully, "Thank you, the host, for me."
Warn first and then induce?
Just right.
Zhou Shu was not polite and collected a lot of materials downstairs. Finally, he bought a Wanfang Ring and returned home satisfied.
As soon as he entered the cave, he saw a panting He Taiping, who seemed to have been tortured badly by You Chongzhi.
"Brother, fellow Taoist traveler is gone?"
"I just left. This guy is really...well, he's exhausted."
He Taiping waved his hands helplessly, not even wanting to stand up.
Zhou Shu walked to him and sat down, showing a hint of deep thought, "Brother, do you know the Ten Thousand Souls Sect very well?"
He Taiping paused for a moment and said slowly, "I can't say I know them very well. It's unusual if I haven't heard of such a large sect... but I don't like them."
Zhou Shu said warmly, "I can tell."
He Taiping paused and sighed, "When I was a slave in the Tianshui Realm, I met a disciple of the Ten Thousand Souls Sect. He was with the Dragon Clan nobles and seemed to be involved in enslaving the Tianshui Realm. Sometimes I think, How come the Ten Thousand Souls Sect, which is orthodox in the immortal world, is together with the Dragon Clan?"
Zhou Shu thought for a while and said, "The Immortal World and the Dragon Clan have always been enemies. They are probably not real disciples of the Ten Thousand Souls Sect. They may be fake."
"I hope so too, but it doesn't look like it. He talked about the Ten Thousand Souls Sect clearly. Alas..." He Taiping sighed, "Regardless of whether it's true or not, he is very powerful, even more powerful than those dragons." More powerful, if he is always in the Tianshui Realm, it will definitely not be good news for me and the Tianshui Realm."
"It's okay, the Dragon Clan has helpers, and so do you."
Zhou Shu smiled slightly, "We all heard it last time. It is not difficult for Crescent City to deal with the dragon clan in Tianshui Realm. We can also find helpers when the time comes."
He Taiping shook his head and said helplessly, "Yes, the Linglong Pavilion family is enough, but the question is how to impress them?"
Zhou Shu said softly, "There will always be a way, don't be impatient."
"I don't want to rush, I'm going to practice."
After glancing at Zhou Shu, he stood up, dragged heavy steps, and slowly entered the quiet room.
He Taiping felt very bad when he mentioned Tianshui Realm. It seemed that the situation there might be really critical.
Zhou Shu shook his head and entered a state of seclusion.
After decades of high-intensity and unlimited resource training, his Five Elements Law has made great progress, and he is already quite close to the Golden Immortal. It may not take long, maybe a year and a half, to break through the boundaries and release the realm of laws. , thus being promoted to Golden Immortal.
But the problem is that Zhou Shu doesn't want to use the Five Elements Law to become a Golden Immortal at all.
For immortals, basic laws have a great influence, especially for golden immortals. The field of laws that are achieved for the first time can be said to be the most promising for development. After that, even if you practice a few more laws and condense more laws, In the field, it is difficult to exceed the first level.
The level of the Five Elements Law is okay, the power of the law is practical enough, and it has recovery properties, but the field of the Five Elements Law is not strong, or very weak.
The field of Five Elements Laws is one of those fields that is very comprehensive but has no outstanding advantages. It can completely overwhelm lower-level laws than itself, can be restored, and can even absorb the power of lower-level laws for its own use (such as a single Five Elements), but There is no advantage among the laws of the same level. Not only is it unable to limit the immortal power, it is also inferior to common laws such as destruction, life and death, good and evil, yin and yang, sword intent, etc. These laws are either extremely offensive or defensive. Sex, or having special properties that cannot be resisted, is very advantageous in the battle between Golden Immortals, but the Five Elements Law is much worse and has too many limitations.
The Five Elements Law can be used as the second choice after becoming a Golden Immortal. It is comprehensive, capable of recovery, and adaptable to a variety of techniques. It is an indispensable part of Shu Zhidao, but it is used as the basic law for promotion to the Golden Immortal. In the field of laws The first choice is less than ideal.
Therefore, he has been looking for other rules to advance to Golden Immortal, but the results are not ideal. This is Zhou Shu's current dilemma.
Reincarnation can't even be understood. Life and death have just been understood, and there is still a long way to reach the Golden Immortal. Good and evil have just touched the edge of understanding, and the law of devouring is making good progress. With the progress of the Taotie Way, I have understood it. But these cannot be used now.
On the one hand, he continued to improve the rules, and on the other hand, he set aside his energy to deduce the newly acquired Copper Furnace Body Forging Technique. Of course, it was also indispensable to analyze and classify the obtained materials one by one. These things would be put to use soon.
After spending dozens of days in the cave, Zhou Shu woke up with a soft sound.
That was the sound made by the jade medal on his body, reminding him that there would be a competition tomorrow and that the Golden Elixir Conference had already begun.
"Kendo?"
Zhou Shu seemed to realize something.
When he walked out of the quiet room, he saw He Taiping and You Chongzhi at a glance. The two were discussing something, and Zhou Shu turned his head when he saw them.
You Chongzhi looked at him with some dissatisfaction and said loudly, "Brother Zhou Dao, you just woke up."
Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, "There will be another competition tomorrow, what about you?"
You Chongzhi looked proud, "We all competed today, and of course we all won."
He Taiping chewed a blade of grass, "But it's not easy. As expected of Crescent City, there are many strong opponents. I almost lost today."
You Chongzhi frowned, "Brother He Dao, you should be satisfied! You met Zhang Jian. He is ranked among the top true immortals in Crescent City. This time, his goal is to be among the top fifty , I lost to you in the first game, and I lost so easily. You don’t know, but now many people in the city are talking about you. Now I am doubting whether it is useful when you usually compete with me. Use all your strength?"
He Taiping glanced at him and said, "I don't need to use all my strength with you. I'm just waiting to die."
"That's pretty much it. Then I can have a little more confidence."
You Chongzhi laughed and looked at Zhou Shudao, "Brother Zhou Dao, it's a pity that you didn't go to the Golden Elixir Conference the day before yesterday. This Golden Elixir Conference is more lively than any previous one, with almost more than 80,000 true immortals participating. The grand occasion was unprecedented, and the city lord who rarely showed up showed up in his avatar. The only pity is that he didn’t see the Jurchen Immortal, which made my elder brother blind, haha."
Zhou Shu smiled faintly, "It's not too late to go tomorrow, I just have a competition."
You Chongzhi nodded and said with high spirits, "I will go to cheer you up tomorrow. I want to see your true ability. Unfortunately, you can't know your opponent until you get there, otherwise I will find information for you."
Zhou Shu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether you win or lose."
