"He can refine this person who can walk on blue water, and at the same time, he also uses special techniques to subdue the divine consciousness of magic weapons. His attainments in weapon refining have definitely reached the pinnacle."

"If you obtain treasures from heaven and earth and bring your own spiritual consciousness without handing over the mark of the magic weapon, they must be completely destroyed to prevent the treasure from defecting and escaping at any time," Zhang Shanxing recalled the teachings his master had given them.

"The master may have forgotten how lonely and arrogant spiritual weapons and spiritual consciousness are. Our master once obtained a flying artifact that was nearly ten thousand years old. In order not to affect the effect of the artifact in exerting the laws of heaven and earth, several elders took turns to use both soft and hard tactics, intimidation and bribery.

It took more than a hundred years, but it still failed to shake the will of the divine consciousness. In the end, the magical artifact and divine consciousness were completely eliminated, and only then did I get a downgraded fairy magical artifact." The second elder knew the master's temperament well, and showed a look of hatred.

With a look of helplessness as iron cannot be transformed into steel, I can only discuss and analyze some cultivation matters with him.

"Well~, this weapon refiner can subdue a weapon spirit in a short period of time, he is really powerful, so I will listen to your opinion before making a decision on everything. It is such a clear choice," Zhang Shanxing nodded solemnly and punched lightly.

He exhaled a long breath from his forehead, as if he was glad that another troublesome matter had been solved, and he also deeply understood the second elder's sincere advice.

"We are brothers from the same school, so I will naturally think about you. You can give me a few verbal lectures in a while. Ling Yun has already taken the initiative to ask for punishment. I won't get entangled in verbal disputes, let alone hold a grudge against you." The second elder touched himself

Looking at the gray and brittle hair gained from working all day long, looking at the headmaster's dark and thick hair, I feel sad, lonely and exhausted deep inside.

"I understand, it's decided," Zhang Shanxing nodded slightly and smiled, pinched his fingers and put away the sword, walked up to Zhang Lingyun, stretched out his hand and released it.

No one would have thought that in just a few breaths, the two masters of the Dongxu stage could easily decide Zhang Lingyun's life and death through the connection of their spiritual senses.

"What are you going to do? He's still a kid,"

The fifth elder understood the stubborn temper of his senior brother, and he would never change the things he was determined to do easily. With the look of deep hatred on his face just now, there was no way he could take this matter lightly. He hurriedly protected Zhang Lingyun behind him and let out a ray of light.

The spiritual consciousness communicates with the master brother.

"Since he is innocent, just punish him by copying talismans, formations, etc. as punishment. It's time to go back after being out for so long." Zhang Shanxing retracted his arm and was held up behind him like a master, suggesting that the fifth elders should do the aftermath work.

.

"Get up quickly, it's okay, it's okay, just explain it clearly," the fifth elder seemed to have learned some earth-shattering news. Even though his heart was surrounded by fog, a knowing smile appeared on his face. He had no choice but to muddy a pool of clear water again.

Make peace with the old man and ease the tense relationship between the master and the disciple.

"Thank you Master for your magnanimity, and thank you elders for understanding Ling Yun's weakness and incompetence," Zhang Lingyun leaned over and knelt down again before holding the fifth elder's arm tightly and stood up.

The fifth elder looked doting on his face as before, and casually patted the dust on Zhang Lingyun's robe, but the fragile fabric, which had been baptized by tens of millions of volts of lightning, could not hold on until the last moment, and turned into fragments and drifted into the distance.

He didn't care about his master's appearance and face.

"Take care of yourself before going back. Don't let the guests see the joke." Zhang Shanxing saw his apprentice's disheveled clothes and unkempt appearance. He didn't listen to the second elder's advice and said some words of comfort to his apprentice. He took out his sword in disgust and flew into the air.

Go away with the sword.

"I'll go back and prepare the dinner first," the third elder said, looking for trouble

Now that everyone is gone, there is no need for me to continue messing around.

"Senior nephew Lingyun, we are in the midst of a national crisis. Don't mess up your mind because of trivial personal feelings," the second elder said, leaving a set of light blue dark flower robes and handing it to Zhang Lingyun, hinting to the fifth elder.

Give some comfort.

"Uncle Master, it's unlucky that you came here. My nest was just destroyed by thunder, and now I can't even serve you a cup of tea," Zhang Lingyun lowered his head, filled with endless feelings of embarrassment and loneliness.

"Silly boy, you are talking nonsense. Does your uncle care about your appetite? You should find a place to wash off the dirt first." The fifth elder punched Zhang Lingyun's reddish-brown arm, which was almost scabbed.

"Haha..., I just entered the integration stage and my body excreted some useless impurities, which made my uncle laugh," Zhang Lingyun was so ashamed that his face was as red as a bleeding cherry, and he tried his best to defend himself.

"Is there any effect of improving one's realm?"

The second elder's bewildered expression did not seem to be fake, but Zhang Lingyun was deep in thought. It seemed that this had not happened since he started practicing Qi and started to practice and advance. It was not until he advanced to the Golden Core stage that he began to have such strange changes. These were all

It's all thanks to the fruit of the green blood vine, but unfortunately its maker is tabooed by the leader of the Taiping Palace. I'm afraid I can't understand the reason.

"This has never happened before. It is most likely the Heavenly Tribulation Tempered Body mentioned by Master," Zhang Lingyun moved Zhang Shanxing out, hoping to get through.

"I seem to have heard similar remarks. People who transcend tribulations and ascend will be forced to remove impurities from their bodies by heavenly tribulations in order to adapt to the pure spiritual energy in the fairy world and continue to practice." The fifth elder's brain was working rapidly to string together some fragments of words,

Confirmed Zhang Lingyun's statement.

"Uncle, please rest here for a moment while I wash myself in the water first."

After settling down the fifth elder, Zhang Lingyun held the light blue dark flower robe in his hand, found an unusually clean stone slab and put it on it. He turned over and jumped into the crystal clear cold stream. Before he could do anything, the fragments of the robe on his body were surging in the undercurrent.

Under the impact of the stream, it turned into pieces of debris and flowed down the river.

The red-gray scabs on Zhang Lingyun's body gradually softened. With constant scrubbing, the clear stream water was dyed a light red, like a red gauze covering the water, and the people standing in the red gauze were rippling.

In the ripples, he is as otherworldly as a heroic knight, but he does not seem to be an elegant scholar with fireworks in the world, chanting the ordinaryness and sorrow of the world.

The quiet and peaceful atmosphere made people temporarily forget their worries. The five elders had nothing to do. They lit up a fire and waited quietly on the shore like Zhang Lingyun did when he was a child, for fear that the helpless child would catch cold and fall ill.

"Uncle, I've been waiting for a long time. It's already getting late. I caught some game to fill my stomach first." Zhang Lingyun took a few cleaned grass carp in his hand, put them on shaved wooden sticks and grilled them by the fire.

"Have you lived like this all these years? Such hardship...?" The fifth elder regretted his words as soon as he opened his mouth. He thought about how a half-year-old child with no life skills and no external material support could live a relaxed life.

, no worries about food and clothing.

"It's not bad. The second elder came here to give me food and clothing once. I saved some of the food to reclaim wasteland and plant it myself. Over the years, I have been self-sufficient and have no worries about food." Zhang Lingyun observed the shocked and frightened expression of the fifth elder, and felt in his heart

Constantly analyze and deduce which sentence caused him to look like this.

"Oh~."

"Uncle, you have to keep this matter a secret for me. The second elder has repeatedly warned me not to reveal that he is here to deliver food and clothing. After all, I am here to practice hard." Zhang Lingyun thinks that such a small thing as clearing up wasteland for farming is not worth it.

As soon as I mentioned that the second elder came to deliver the message, I had mentioned it in front of everyone, so that was the only possibility left, so I casually tried to test it by telling him something confidential.

"Haha~, don't worry about this. No one will know about this except the three of us. Uncle Master is very strict with his words."

The fifth elder's solemn words of assurance confirmed Zhang Lingyun's guess. It seemed that the master had intended to let him fend for himself in this barren mountain, but he did not expect that the second elder would interfere with it and make Zhang Shanxing's wishful thinking come to nothing.

The second elder who has always thought that the leader of the Taiping Palace is just following orders, what kind of medicine is he selling in the gourd?

"Ling Yun, Ling Yun, the fish is ready to eat," the fifth elder was feeling complacent that his senior brother's violation of the master's order had been concealed, and he was completely unaware of the fact that he had betrayed his senior brother in a daze.

"Thank you, Uncle Master," Zhang Lingyun took the grilled fish from the fifth elder's hand, which was delicious and fragrant, but he swallowed it as if he was chewing candle wax without any appetite.

"Slow down, slow down, these are all for you, no one will compete with you," the fifth elder looked at Zhang Lingyun who was devouring his food without regard for his dignity, and thought about the hardships he had suffered in recent years due to lack of clothes and sleeping in the open air.

The suffering and guilt are beyond words.

"I'm full," Zhang Lingyun turned his grief and anger into appetite. After cramming two arms-thick grilled fish, his decadent mood gradually calmed down.

"It's getting late, which is not conducive to sword flying. We'll set off back tomorrow morning."

The fifth elder hoped to take the opportunity to comfort his nephew, so that the master and apprentice would not drift apart and their relationship would become more awkward and unfamiliar. Just when the fifth elder was thinking about how to speak to break the calm, the nephew was the first to speak.

"Uncle Master, what happened in the imperial court that made all the Master Masters so frightened and distraught?" Zhang Lingyun didn't want to dwell on the past anymore. How to deal with the unexpected situation that he knew nothing about was the most important.

"Three feet of ice does not last in a day. The Qing Dynasty is now at the end of its power. Those civil and military officials who are the pillars of the country are extremely corrupt. The mediocre and helpless people are becoming more and more impoverished. The power of the country is gradually weakened and underestimated, so that

Having fallen behind to the point where they can only be beaten, those literati and tycoons with only ambitious ambitions hope to catch up, but quite a few of them are worms in the court, but they are getting deeper and deeper into the luxurious life of drunkenness and dreaming, unable to extricate themselves," the fifth elder said.

He chattered wildly, trying his best to express his resentment and helplessness.

"The most hateful thing is the big smoke that can kill people at any time. Just for that moment of joyful experience, those ordinary people turned into horrible existences like zombies, abandoning their wives and children, and killing each other..."

"Those people are just willing to degenerate in order to escape reality. What can the new things and new ideas spread by outsiders bring to the poor people who are broke down by a bucket of rice? They have curbed the economic lifeline of the imperial court and plundered the vast and lush land of the country.

He continued to enslave and extract the blood and sweat of workers to satisfy his own greed, and even united with those officials to bring heavier exploitation and oppression to the Qing Dynasty."
