Late at night, Zhou Qing looked at himself in the mirror and sighed softly.

"I have been hurt by alcohol and sex, and have become so haggard. From today on..."

"Stop drinking!"

"ha."

A light laugh came from behind Zhou Qing, and Lu Qingmo was amused by Zhou Qing's words.

Zhou Qing turned around, looked at the trembling Lu Qingmo, and snorted.

Laugh? Laughing is also a provocation.

After a while, Zhou Qing sighed again.

"Zhou Qing, oh Zhou Qing, how could you be so depraved? Have you forgotten the training plan you set earlier?"

“Work hard!”

“…”

An Lang was a little confused. Why didn't he see the young master tonight? In the past, he would come out to practice.

There are some soul plants and spirit plants planted on Kunlun Mountain. Sitting under them to practice will provide various assistances, such as calming the mind, refining the energy of heaven and earth, etc.

The effect is extraordinary. In Kunlun Mountain, only Zhou Qing, An Lang and Yun Duo can use it at any time.

In the morning, Zhou Qing rubbed his brows and said tiredly:

"Oh no, I hope it won't affect my performance in the battle for the position of the True Transmission tomorrow."

It feels like too much consumption, it's really corroding my bones and draining my marrow.

Lu Qingmo rolled his eyes at Zhou Qing and said, "I'll let you do whatever you want."

Zhou Qing felt that he couldn't go on like this and had to prepare well for tomorrow's ranking competition, so he decisively withdrew.

Humph, a living sage.

After some preparation, the two walked out of Qingxu Palace, and Lu Qingmo asked again:

"Do you know about the tenth generation of the current generation?"

"Um."

Zhou Qing nodded. "After all, I have been in Xuandu Temple for several months. I have collected all the information that should be collected."

He now knows the realm, cultivation, origins, and expertise of the top ten true disciples of the contemporary era.

Of course, these are definitely some information that is more popular among the public, and it is impossible to find out other people's secrets.

In addition, during these three months, although Zhou Qing devoted himself to his cultivation, several Xuan Du Zhenchuan disciples visited him or invited him to be their guest. As a result, he got to know several more Xuan Du Zhenchuan disciples.

At this point, I have truly integrated into this group.

Lu Qingmo warned: "You are aiming for the Ten True Teachings, but you must not underestimate them or be careless. You must go all out."

"clear."

There was a look of longing in Zhou Qing's eyes. He longed to reach that position and longed for more.

"By the way, Aunt Mo, are you going to the scene tomorrow?"

"Of course I will."

Lu Qingmo smiled and said, "You are personally involved in this matter, how can I not go and watch it?"

"The ranking competition will last for three days. I don't know if it will be my turn to compete tomorrow."

"No problem."

The smile on Lu Qingmo's face did not diminish. "Now that I have recovered and made breakthroughs one after another, I have reached the third level of Yin God. It is time for me to show up."

She was also a famous Xuandu genius in her day, but unfortunately she met with misfortune and remained silent for sixteen years.

Now that the trapped dragon has ascended to heaven and the trapped phoenix has risen again, it is only natural for them to clear their names.

That year, Lu Qingmo came back. Although it delayed him for sixteen years, he had reached the third level of Yin Shen transformation and was not far from Huangquan realm.

Such information would undoubtedly cause quite a stir in Xuandu Temple and would surprise many people.

At the same time, it can also enhance the momentum of Shuiyue Peak.

If other people are really sure that Lu Qingmo has fully recovered, then no one will doubt whether she has hope of entering the underworld. There must be hope.

The meaning of a Yin Shen Three Transformations with hope of breaking through and without hope of breaking through is completely different. The blessing and help given to the Shuiyue Peak lineage is naturally the difference between heaven and earth.

Looking at the expression on Lu Qingmo's face, Zhou Qing couldn't help but feel happy for her.

Compared to the gloomy Aunt Mo, Zhou Qing naturally hoped to see an Aunt Mo who was radiant and energetic.

"We have the last day to make the best preparations. Although this is not enough time to make any big progress, we should still adjust our condition."

Lu Qingmo encouraged: "I am waiting for the day when you shine brightly. I believe that you will illuminate the entire Xuandu Temple and amaze everyone."

Zhou Qing nodded heavily.

"I will."

At this time, not only people on Kunlun Mountain were discussing the battle for ranking that would begin tomorrow, but the same was true on the other Zhenchuan peaks.

Some true disciples are full of confidence and want to show their skills and grace in this battle for ranking.

Some true disciples were feeling depressed because, for various reasons, they had not made enough progress in the past six months. They felt that their performance in the battle for rank might not be satisfactory.

Some true disciples were indifferent and did not care about this matter at all.

Time flies, the sun and the moon rotate, and it is already the next morning.

There was a change in Zhou Qing's true order. At the same time, the sound of the morning bell rang out and spread to many areas of the Xuanfa Mountains.

The battle for the position of true successor has begun.

Zhou Qing and Lu Qingmo, along with An Lang Yunduo, left Kunlun Mountain and flew towards Tianduantai, where the battle for ranking would be held.

And every time there is a competition for the position of true disciple, those disciples who are not true disciples can also go and watch.

This move is intended to motivate the inner and outer disciples, allowing them to learn something from the true disciples and motivate them to work harder.

As for whether some people would be devastated after watching the battle for the true teachings and never recover from it...

All I can say is that this state of mind is not suitable for spiritual practice.

The chain, as thick as an adult's width, spans the sky and the ground, penetrates into the mountains, embeds into the earth, and fixes the vast Tianduan Terrace.

Near Tianduan Terrace, there are also platforms standing. Some platforms are close to the chains, while others are far away from Tianduan Terrace. At this moment, there are already some people standing scattered on those platforms.

The views from these platforms are very good, and one can see everything on the Tianduan Terrace. In addition, the people who come here are definitely practitioners, so there is no need to worry about their eyesight. Even if the stands are a little far away from the Tianduan Terrace, it will not affect their viewing.

The arrival of Zhou Qing and others also attracted the attention of some people, and they all looked at them.

"Kunlun Mountain Zhou Qing?"

"It's him. He has rarely appeared since the True Transmission Ceremony. Today, I finally got to see his true appearance. He looks quite extraordinary."

"I just don't know how strong it is."

“…”

Zhou Qing looked around Tianduan Terrace and saw Lu Yuanyuan on a stand, so he flew there.

After Lu Qingmo said something to Zhou Qing, he went to where Luo Liuli and Song Dongchen were.

The elders and even higher-ups at Xuandu Temple who came to watch the battle for ranking were not with the disciples.

There were white clouds floating in the sky at this time, and there were shadowy figures on the clouds. They were the top leaders of Xuandu.

Seeing Lu Qingmo flying towards where Luo Liuli and the others were, many high-level officials of Xuandu Temple looked at her with some surprise in their eyes.

"Yin Shen Three Transformations? Is this person also from Shuiyue Peak?"

"If I remember correctly, that should be the disciple of Shuiyue Peak Master, Lu Qingmo, who once inherited the peerless Taoist magic outside, right?"

"So it was her. I remember now. I have heard about her, but I remember she said that there was something wrong with her soul. How could she have such a high level of cultivation now?"

"Did she find a way to heal her soul during these years away from Xuandu Temple?"

"No, I saw her when she came back last year. At that time, she was still in the Manifestation Saint Realm. Now, not much time has passed, but she has cultivated to the Yin God Three Transformations Realm. It's incredible..."

The masters were communicating with each other in private. Lu Qingmo was once a celebrity in Xuandu Temple. Her reputation of peerless Taoist magic was too loud, and her own experience was too tortuous, which caused quite a stir in Xuandu Temple at the time.

Now, as soon as someone mentions her, everyone remembers her information.

But the more I understand, the more surprised I am.

A disciple who was in the Manifestation of Sainthood and whose path was cut off, whom even the master of Xuandu Temple was powerless to help and could not be cured, was still in the Manifestation of Sainthood when he came back at the end of last year. How could it be that only half a year had passed and he had cultivated to the third transformation of Yin God?

This sounds too bizarre.

Many high-ranking officials of Xuandu Temple were extremely curious about what had happened to Lu Qingmo that could have brought about such a change in her.

Especially some people who once competed with Lu Qingmo in the same generation, felt even more complicated at this moment.

Some of them have already advanced to the Huangquan Chedi realm. These people are fine, after all, they can still look down on Lu Qingmo in terms of cultivation.

But some people are still in the Yin Shen True Blood realm, and these people feel very uncomfortable.

No, you wasted sixteen years, how come you caught up with us out of nowhere? Does this make sense?

"But how is this possible? In half a year, he has achieved the third level of Yin God from the Perfect Manifestation of Sainthood. This is simply a fantasy."

"The new True Disciple Zhou Qing who has been gaining popularity recently, although he has cultivated from a mere mortal to the Manifestation of Sainthood Bone Refining Realm in less than a year... Hmm? How come Zhou Qing is in the Marrow Cleansing Realm?"

When a master was talking about Lu Qingmo, he looked at Zhou Qing and then froze.

Marrow washing? That's a bit strange.

Taking another look, I realized I was not mistaken, it was truly the Marrow Cleansing Realm.

Huh? Weren't you at the minor stage of bone refining three months ago? How come you have suddenly become at the marrow cleansing stage now?

Disheveled in the wind.

What's going on with these two people?

Even Zhuge Tongda who was present was surprised by Lu Qingmo's change. He came directly to the few people, greeted them, and then asked about Lu Qingmo.

"Lu Qingmo, has your soul problem been solved?"

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

This is a problem that even the abbot can't solve! "Reporting to the deputy abbot, I'm fine now."

"Then your cultivation... is indeed somewhat unexpected."

At this time, Luo Liuli said: "Junior sister had an opportunity to make a rare treasure in an ancient recipe reappear in the world. It not only solved her problem, but also greatly increased her cultivation."

Song Dongchen added: "Deputy Master, I found that ancient recipe from the ancient site. It records a kind of precious liquid. You need treasures such as Holy Spirit Liquid and Source Qi to refine that kind of precious liquid."

"Senior sister was lucky enough to find all the materials, so we can make today's progress."

There was no need to hide the fact that he had taken the Heavenly Saint Resurrection Liquid from Xuandu Temple. This was not an evil method but an upright way. Of course, there was no need to conceal it, and he could also tell the sect clearly that Lu Qingmo's changes were normal.

The Heavenly Saint Resurrection Liquid not only greatly improved Lu Qingmo's cultivation, but also caused her soul to undergo a fundamental transformation, taking her talent to a higher level and giving her excellent martial arts talent.

Such a happy event should actually be told to Xuandu Temple.

Only by telling these things will Xuandu Temple pay more attention to Lu Qingmo.

Don't forget, Lu Qingmo is still carrying the inheritance of peerless Taoist magic. Now with the great opportunity of the Resurrection Liquid, the possibility of reaching the pinnacle will undoubtedly increase greatly.

For Xuandu Temple, this is very worthy of cultivation, and the entire Shuiyue Peak lineage will benefit from it.

The Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Seal can pass on the true meaning three times, and there will be no chance after three times. However, if Lu Qingmo's cultivation reaches a peak and practices this Taoist art to the extreme, then she herself will be able to leave behind a Taoist art inheritance.

His own realm is high enough and his Taoist skills have been cultivated to perfection, so of course it is impossible for him not to pass them on to others.

With this premise, if Lu Qingmo had not encountered any problems back then, Xuandu Temple would not have weakened her training efforts and would have done its best to help her reach the top.

But perhaps the Wuchang Palace also noticed this point and set a trap to deal with her.

As for whether the ancient recipe of the resurrection liquid should be handed over to Xuandu Temple, it depends on Song Dongchen's personal wishes. He found this thing and it belongs to him.

If he hands it over, Xuandu Temple will reward him. If he doesn't, Xuandu Temple will not force him.

Xuandu Temple would not force Lu Qingmo to hand over her peerless Taoist skills to the sect, let alone an ancient recipe.

However, Song Dongchen did not intend to hand over the ancient recipe because there was another ingredient in it called Butian Teng.

He didn't even say the name of Butian Teng just now.

As for the reason, it was of course because they were afraid that the news would get out and arouse suspicion from the royal family.

After hearing what Song Dongchen said, Zhuge Tongda was shocked and looked at Lu Qingmo.

"Holy Spirit Liquid? You actually found this kind of treasure?"

"It wasn't me. Zhou Qing found it and gave it to me."

Seeing Zhuge Tongda's strange expression, Lu Qingmo asked, "Deputy Master, do you know about this Holy Spirit Liquid?"

“I’ve heard of it.”

Zhuge Tongda sighed, "What a great fortune, I can actually get this treasure."

"This is a legendary item, something that even the Azure Sky Realm cannot obtain. The source energy there can be ranked alongside the Holy Spirit Liquid, so it must be a rare treasure in the world."

"It is understandable that the precious liquid made from such a precious treasure can bring about such a change in you."

Luo Liuli added: "Not only that, Junior Sister has already glimpsed the opportunity to advance to the Yellow Springs Realm, and has cleansed her tendons and marrow, reshaped her physical body, and possessed excellent martial arts talent."

By saying this, she was hinting at Zhuge Tongda.

My junior sister is so outstanding now, isn't it time for the sect to show some appreciation?

Zhuge Tongda pondered for a moment, and then said:

"This is a good thing. Since you have reshaped your bones and possess excellent martial arts talent, then let's do this. You can directly inherit the Yin-Yang Immortal Sutra at any time to build the most perfect martial arts foundation."

The Immortal Yin-Yang Sutra is the most important secret martial arts inheritance of Xuandu Temple. It aims to use the great way of Yin-Yang to refine an immortal body.

In contrast, it is the Yin-Yang Ten Thousand Tribulations Sutra, which is the most important root method inherited by Xuandu Temple. Lu Qingmo's soul and spirit practiced this skill together.

Practicing these two exercises together will complement and promote each other. This is a method passed down directly from Master Xuan Du, but it is not the exercise created by Master Xuan Du.

It was also obtained by Master Xuandu by chance. It has a mysterious origin and is extremely powerful.

Xuandu Temple has more than just one root method and secret martial arts, but the status of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Sutra and the Immortal Sutra has never been shaken.

"In addition, impacting the Yellow Spring Realm is not an easy task. The sect will also prepare some resources for you to help you."

This is the benefit of having a sect, this is the benefit of showing your own value.

"Thank you, Deputy Master."

"No need to thank me, you deserve it."

Zhuge Tongda smiled and said, "I look forward to the day when you make another breakthrough."

After saying that, Zhuge Tongda left here and returned to his cloud.

He had several Xuandu Temple masters who were at the Tongtian Biluo Realm with him. When they saw him come back, they also asked about Lu Qingmo.

Zhuge Tongda gave a brief explanation, which was also an endorsement for Lu Qingmo, saying that there was nothing wrong with the changes in her and everything was normal, and that she should not be brought up on this issue in the future.

After thinking about it, Zhuge Tongda reported what happened to Lu Qingmo to the master of Xuandu Temple.

A Venerable would definitely not alarm the Master of Xuandu Temple, but this Venerable's soul once had a problem that even the Master of Xuandu Temple could not solve, but now it has recovered.

Then the abbot should be informed.

The master of Xuandu Temple immediately received the message.

"Holy Spirit Liquid, Source Energy... a very good opportunity."

The immortal nodded slightly and also praised.

However, he also noticed another point, which was the treasure that Zhou Qing found for Lu Qingmo.

Why is it this little guy again? You are everywhere.

In the stands.

Zhou Qing was chatting with Lu Yuanyuan. Later, Shi Yi, Cao Yinyin and others came here after arriving at Tianduantai and gathered with them.

Murong Yanran was naturally present as well, but as one of the top ten true disciples of the contemporary era, her position was particular and she could not stand casually like Zhou Qing and the others, so she did not stand with them.

"Senior Sister Cao, have you heard that the barbarians seem to be making movements again at the border recently?"

Shi Yi suddenly brought up such a topic, which attracted the interest of Zhou Qing and others.

"The barbarians are making moves again? What do they want to do? Are they going to rush into Hanzhou to plunder, or are they going to start a small-scale ethnic war?"

“I don’t know.”

Shi Yi shook his head. "But I got news from the border. The human race experts stationed at the border have seen unusual movements of the barbarian team more than once. Now the border has been put under martial law."

"But they are not planning to rob. If they were planning to rob, Dong Zhou would be a better choice. I'm afraid they have other plans."

Although this is a world with practitioners, the environment in Hanzhou is indeed not very good. It cannot be compared with the territory bordering the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the grassland.

The area where the Eastern Zhou Dynasty borders the grassland is rich in soil and water, has a pleasant climate, and is rich in various resources.

The influence of the Ten Thousand Snow Mountains on Hanzhou is too great.

Jiang Mi said bitterly: "These barbarians are really abominable. The grassland is so big, but they still covet the territory of our human race."

"That's what barbarian blood is like. Just a bunch of barbaric foreigners."

Lu Yuanyuan's voice was slightly cold. "But if they dare to come, they must be prepared to pay a price. The human race has never been afraid of these barbarians."

The barbarians claim to be descendants of the devil, but it is not clear whether the devil exists.

But there is indeed something abnormal about their blood, which makes the barbarians more warlike, barbaric, cruel, and advocates primitive violence.

While Zhou Qing and the others were talking about the barbarians on the border, all the true disciples who would come to participate in the competition for the ranking in the Xuanfa Mountains had already arrived.

There were ten square stone slabs floating in the air above the Tianduan Terrace, overlooking the entire Tianduan Terrace.

There is a person standing on each of the stone slabs, they are the ten great generations of disciples of Xuandu Temple.

Compared with true disciples like Zhou Qing, they stand at a higher position, above all the disciples, making people look up to them.

Zhou Qing looked at the ten figures with a calm expression, but his heart was surging.

He can take his place! (End of this chapter)
