Chapter 340 Prepare to Retreat
Chapter 340 Prepare to retreat
In the following 20 days, Zhou Shu's Xixiang Valley welcomed three groups of fellow practitioners.
Most of these cultivators are deacons and elders like Hao Ruoyan. They came to inquire about the magic weapon. When something like this happens, they must always check it out. Zhou Shu, as a guest elder who just arrived, they don't know much about it, and they have checked it a lot. .
Before they come every time, the Hao family sisters will tell him in advance to let him prepare.
The Zongmen's self-examination did not intend to directly take the disciple's magic weapon as its own, but would cultivate it according to the disciple's situation, if it was a genius, or exchange enough resources if it was not. But for Ke Qing, if he finds out any clues, he may pay a huge price to win him over, or he may disappear silently...
Zhou Shu didn't know Liuxiazong's thoughts, but he obviously wouldn't reveal anything. Facing all kinds of questioning, Zhou Shu looked calm and answered calmly.
When he came for the third time, the elder deacon brought three disciples from the Pulse Condensation Realm, and they still asked the same question, and Zhou Shu answered the same.
After this time, they never came again.
Zhou Shu knew why.
Because one of the three Pulse Condensation Realm disciples was a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator who deliberately disguised herself. Her consciousness was amazing, and she probed Zhou Shu's Xixiang Valley for a long time. Zongmen didn't want to offend Elder Keqing, and she also thought that Zhou Shu didn't know, but she didn't know that Zhou Shu's spiritual consciousness was far beyond that of ordinary Pulse Condensation Realm. She sensed her difference, but she didn't say anything, but calmly let her probing.
Of course, nothing was found in the final result, and there was no trace of the refining tool. Since then, Zhou Shu has not encountered any inspections, and everything remains the same.
However, since then, he has not taken out the heavy golden sword again. This is someone else's territory and cannot be revealed.
Ding--
The familiar bell rang.
"watch out!"
As soon as Zhou Shu walked to the entrance of the valley, a large green net with a width of five feet covered him.
The big net is not real, but formed by a large number of active wood auras. Although it looks thin and vulnerable, it is actually very difficult to break up, because the wood auras are closely related to each other, and if they are really covered , it is absolutely difficult to break free.
Because the wood aura that is growing all the time, once it touches the enemy, it will continue to grow various vines to wrap around the enemy, either sticky or with spikes, no matter how the enemy dodges, as long as the caster's spirit If the strength can keep up, the vines will never stop, and the enemy can't escape no matter what.
However, that was only for enemies who were not familiar with wood spirit energy, but it had no effect on Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu didn't move when he saw the big net coming, he just smiled and stretched out three fingers. Finger shadows flew, and spiritual power came out one after another, and the big net fell on him, not only did not wrap him tightly, but slid down obediently, and a green lawn grew under his feet.
"I didn't get the trick again..."
Hao Siyun stood out from a bush, like a flower blooming in the grass, but the flower looked depressed.
She raised her head, glared at Zhou Shu and said, "Why do you always avoid it? This time I obviously changed the method. Did you hide your secrets and deliberately didn't teach our sisters? Tell me, tell me!"
Her move is the Musi Jue taught to her by Zhou Shuxin, which is also a derivative of Mu Yin Jue, but it has changed a lot. It is not only restricted by the big net, but also a very strong defense and attack skill. I have practiced it very well. , can gather all the wood spiritual energy within tens of miles, forming millions of sharp wooden thorns, or wooden fences as strong as a city wall, it is absolutely impossible to escape.
"You are already very good, but I am a little more familiar with it than you, and I can mobilize the wood spirit energy better, so I can use the same formula to resolve it, and even counterattack. Speaking of this, you should also be careful, similar to the wooden silk formula. The ancient formula is not suitable for dealing with practitioners who are familiar with it, otherwise it is very likely to burn yourself and hurt yourself in turn."
Zhou Shu nodded and explained a few words carefully.
"oh."
Hao Siyun pouted, and nodded as if he had realized something, "Understood, but I still have some questions..."
"come in."
Zhou Shu smiled and nodded, then waved to the beautiful blue figure not far away, "Miss Ruoyan, if you don't mind, let's talk together."
For Hao Ruoyan, Zhou Shu has already changed his name, because of the matter of the best magic weapon, he feels that the relationship has become much closer.
"Whatever Master Shu said, Ruoyan will come right away."
With some joy on his face, Hao Ruoyan approached slowly, saluted Zhou Shu, and followed behind with a smile.
After all, she is an elder of the Golden Core Realm and an older sister. She has her own identity, so it's fine to listen to Zhou Shu's teaching of the formula, but she is still a little embarrassed to ask questions like a student, so Zhou Shu always greets her , to take care of her face.
...
Time passed day by day, the days were very ordinary, but also very fulfilling, and there was a touch of warmth, which was a good feeling.
Zhou Shu didn't mention the matter of the ultimate magic weapon, nor did the two women, as if it didn't happen.
"Miss Ruoyan, Miss Siyun, I'm sorry, I will start retreat tomorrow."
Standing by the Lingquan, Zhou Shu spoke in a calm voice, with a calm face, but a lot of excitement in his heart.
The long-awaited time has finally arrived. After such a long time, the first three changes of Stepping on the Sea Jue have been completely deduced by Zhou Shu, and you can start practicing at any time.
This is a very big day, and such a formula as stepping on the sea will bring great changes to Zhou Shu's future.
"Ah, you want to hide again?"
Hao Siyun puffed up his mouth immediately, "How long have you learned this? I haven't learned much. Also, I saw you use the Explosive Flame Jue yesterday. Why was the Explosive Flame so small when I used it? Why is it so big when you use it? Do you have any special method? Spiritual power..."
"Okay, don't talk too much."
Hao Ruoyan frowned and interrupted her sister's lianju question. She turned to Zhou Shu, with some doubts in her eyes, "Master Shu is retreating at this time, did he gain any new insight?"
Zhou Shu nodded calmly, "Almost, I have some new ideas."
"Well, Ruoyan congratulates Master Shu."
It is very common for practitioners to retreat and practice at any time when they have enlightenment. Hao Ruoyan bowed, and sincerely congratulated, but there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes, "Master Shu, how long will it take to retreat this time?"
Zhou Shu thought for a moment, "It's as short as half a year, as long as a year or two, it's hard to say clearly."
"Okay," Hao Ruoyan nodded, "Master Shu retreats with peace of mind. If there is anything outside, we can let us do it. These days, Master Shu has taken care of our sisters a lot. He is both a teacher and a friend. Just do as you're told."
Hao Siyun walked over with dissatisfaction on his face, but his words were very sincere, "Yeah, you can go to retreat, if there is anything I can help you, such as looking for materials, I am good at these gone."
The eyes of the two were eager, and it was obvious that they really wanted to help, but Zhou Shu couldn't refuse, and his heart moved slightly.
"There is something..."
"Say it quickly, what are you talking about, it's the most annoying thing!"
"I would like to ask you to help me secretly investigate a person, who is the enshrinement of Haizhonglou, named Luo Ming..."
Hao Siyun patted his chest, "Okay! I'll help you find out, do you want to catch him here?"
"The building in the sea?"
Hao Ruoyan also nodded, her eyes froze slightly, obviously worried.
