We've eaten.
Zhang Rongfang got up and left, bidding farewell to Zhang Qingzhi, before returning to the small building to continue his Civilian Skill.
Even if he didn't want his Civilian Skill to improve too quickly, he still had to maintain appearances.
Master Chongxuan's medical skills are extremely high. Whether he practices Civilian Skill or not, he might be able to tell.
Therefore, the appearance must be made.
I just got back to the small building.
As soon as Zhang Rongfang entered, he saw Yue Dewen admiring his painting with his hands behind his back in a corner on the first floor.
"Oh, you're back?" Yue Dewen stroked his beard, turned around, and looked at him with a smile.
"How are you doing? Are you settling into life lately? Have you been arguing with your fellow disciples? Have you been practicing diligently? Have you been eating properly?"
"Where did you learn that tone of voice you use when talking to a child?" Zhang Rongfang was speechless, but still quickly bowed.
"I've just been too busy lately, and I was worried that we'd become estranged. Wouldn't it be better to express our feelings more often and strengthen our teacher-student bond?" Yue Dewen said with a smile.
As they spent more time together, his true nature gradually came to the fore.
Unreliable, lazy, likes to brag, show off, and act strangely. Likes to peep and suddenly pop out from some corner to scare people.
Zhang Rongfang saw through all of this.
Fortunately, Yue Dewen has stopped pretending.
"Alright, I came back mainly to take care of your business." His lighthearted tone quickly turned reassuring.
"About the disciple?" Zhang Rongfang narrowed his eyes, a series of guesses flashing through his mind.
"Disciple, what could be the matter?" he asked, puzzled.
"What do you think?" Yue Dewen glared and puffed out his cheeks. "Have you forgotten that you are still Spirit Envoy of the Golden Wing Tower? This trip to the Golden Wing Tower was a disaster; less than one in ten survived, and almost all of the higher-ups were wiped out."
The Eastern Sect was purged everywhere, and now it's basically all wiped out. If I hadn't pulled you out of it, do you think you'd still be able to speak properly here?
"The entire Golden Wing Tower was wiped out?" Zhang Rongfang's heart tightened. "What about the Golden Wing Tower in various locations?"
"You're worried about Wu Mountain? That's easy. I'll send someone over there later to have your people convert to our sect. They just need to change their clothes and put on a sign."
"Keep a branch in a small place; I'm sure the others will still give us that face." Yue Dewen had obviously thought this through long ago.
"Then Asking Master, what is the current state of the expert in the Eastern Sect named Eastern Sect Heavenly Maiden Tong Zhang?" Zhang Rongfang quickly continued to ask.
Regardless, the Heavenly Maiden eventually delivered the item to him. She had, in a way, shown him kindness by guiding and promoting him. It's still worth asking.
"Heavenly Maiden Tong Zhang? Hmm, she successfully entered the Extreme Realm. And now, we don't know where she is. This is none of your business; that little girl has played everyone's forces for fools."
They released a fake, causing people to fight and scramble for it. Meanwhile, the real thing was long gone, its whereabouts unknown. Heh heh, though not as cunning as I am, you certainly have some shrewdness."
Yue Dewen touched his face to express his appreciation.
"Really? Master, what could possibly attract so many people to fight over it?" Zhang Rongfang's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly replied.
He suddenly suspected that what he had obtained might be the key to the struggle between external forces.
"It's a Secret Cache. Someone is using the little girl's name to research how to target Spiritization. It's said they've made progress, attracting the covetous eyes of others."
"However, the truly top-tier forces didn't participate; it was just some Xiao Yu making moves," Yue Dewen chuckled, then glanced sideways at Zhang Rongfang.
"What? You have feelings for this Tong Zhang? I heard you even slept with her for a while before? Do you want me to help you snatch her back to warm your bed?"
Zhang Rongfang was speechless. How did this old man know everything? And what did he mean by "slept with" and "warmed the bed"? Did he seem like that kind of person? This was clearly ambiguous, wasn't it? But he remained calm on the surface.
"Master is too kind. It's just that I used to be Spirit Envoy and received some help from Tong Zhang, so..."
Looking at Yue Dewen's ambiguous smile, he suddenly had a thought.
"Since Master has said it's impossible to take it back, could we please beg Master to intervene and save the life of that Heavenly Maiden Tong Zhang?"
He knew that this was unrealistic; Eastern Sect was currently in a state of utter chaos.
"It's just a casual remark, expressing my gratitude. It'll leave a good impression, won't it?" Upon hearing this, Yue Dewen chuckled twice, looking as if he knew this would happen.
"Well," he stroked his beard.
"Certainly."
"Affim."
"Burp." He let out a burp. Under Zhang Rongfang's expectant gaze.
"Affim."
"No!"
Zhang Rongfang was speechless.
"Alright, stop thinking about it. Eastern Sect is a drowning dog right now, anyone can attack him. But rescuing him is a different story. Especially since Heavenly Maiden is a key figure in this."
Yue Dewen waved his hand.
"Alright," Zhang Rongfang knowingly. He didn't insist; that level of competition was too far removed from his current level.
Even if he had feelings for the Heavenly Maiden, he was powerless to do anything about it at this moment.
"Furthermore, I have another question I would like to ask."
"You say."
"That's right, what I want to ask is, what kind of enhancements will this Spiritization produce on the human body?" This is what Zhang Rongfang has always wanted to know: the various mysteries and secrets of Spiritization.
"That depends on which god the Spiritization worships," Yue Dewen replied with a smile.
"What god do you worship?" Zhang Rongfang understood that behind this question was another meaning: there was more than one god.
There may even be many.
"Naturally, gods differ from sect to sect." Yue Dewen nodded. "For example, our Great Dao Sect worships the Yujing Hanshi Celestial Lord. Below the Celestial Venerable are many lesser gods."
"Those with the strongest aptitude can Worship God the highest position in the pantheon. Those with slightly weaker aptitude can worship the God Position that is more suitable for them. Those with even weaker aptitude can also accumulate Worship God over time, improving their Worship God rate through practice."
Perhaps one day, a sudden stroke of luck will bring success.
Yue Dewen smiled.
"You see, many of those people who frequently Worship God and burn incense actually evolved from this."
Zhang Rongfang suddenly realized.
"So that's another way of saying it."
"That's right. In addition, different sects God Position, and the boosts gained from successfully Worship God are also different."
Our Great Dao Sect, for example, focuses on restoration and longevity. After successfully Worship God, one's lifespan is extended longer than that of other sects. Furthermore, after successfully establishing Spirit Guard Spirit Vein, one's self-recovery time is much faster than other God System.
Yue Dewen didn't hide anything.
"Self-recovery time? You mean recovery after an injury?" Zhang Rongfang asked.
"The time required to be injured, and to be resurrected after dying once," Yue Dewen explained.
"Under normal circumstances, after Spiritization, one is absolutely immortal. However, after dying once, it takes about a few minutes to revive."
However, the Spiritization of my Great Dao Sect can shorten this time to less than one-tenth of the original time!
He had an arrogant look on his face.
"Amazing!!" Zhang Rongfang exclaimed, his face showing shock.
He wasn't acting; he was genuinely shocked.
When he killed the Iron Taoist, he carefully tested it and found that the Iron Taoist's resurrection time was at least one minute.
The Iron Taoist appears to have come from the Great Dao Sect.
Within 10%. If the two Iron Taoist he encountered hadn't revived so quickly, he wouldn't have had to leave in such a hurry.
"So don't overthink it. Your task now is to focus on cultivating your Civilian Skill and break through to the late stage of Refining Spirit."
By then, the success rate of your Worship God will be higher, and given your age, you will definitely become Spirit General.
"At that time, you will be able to go anywhere in the world." Yue Dewen looked expectant and patted Zhang Rongfang on the shoulder.
"But I am still many years away from the late stage of Refining Spirit. What if something goes wrong during these many years?"
Zhang Rongfang continued.
"Therefore, this disciple would like to ask, since the Eastern Sect was able to become the Number One Under Heaven power in the world, and it is said that there is no Spiritization among its members, how do they deal with other Spiritization? How do they protect themselves?"
"Martial arts, below the Spirit General, have extremely strong effects. If one can cultivate to the Grandmaster level, with the help of weapons and armor, it is still not a problem to fight against ordinary Spirit Vein."
Yue Dewen found a seat and began to explain slowly.
"Therefore, martial arts combined with equipment and weapons can actually unleash extremely powerful force. Apart from the possibility of getting injured or dying, the only other advantage is that the speed and strength are slightly inferior to those of the same level of Spirit Vein."
"However, in the art of martial arts, the most powerful level is still the Extreme Realm."
The Extreme Realm is a state, while the grandmaster is a level of cultivation; the two can be combined.
Of course, sincerity is required for Worship God. Extreme Realm abandons everything else and focuses only on another thought, it is naturally impossible to successfully Worship God.
Therefore, Extreme Realm and Worship God are two paths that are absolutely incompatible.
Zhang Rongfang seemed to be deep in thought about "incompatible paths".
"Alright, stop thinking nonsense. Focus on your training and don't disappoint your master," Yue Dewen said earnestly.
"Yes." Zhang Rongfang nodded.
The mighty Yellow River surged and roared.
The entire Yellow River resembles a winding yellow dragon, roaring and flowing continuously into the distance.
On both sides of the riverbank are huge, hard yellow rock faults.
Amidst the rumbling sound of water, a white figure moved rapidly along the rocky shore.
Behind the figure, two Black-Robed Figure were in hot pursuit.
"Where can you run to?!"
A clear sound cut through the water and reached the white-clad figure in front.
"Instead of doing that, why not relay the Secret Cache to us? We promise that if you relay them completely, we will also preserve the three Human Seed of your Eastern Sect for you!"
Yan Xi's deep voice drifted forward.
The Heavenly Maiden Tong Zhang seemed not to hear.
In the Extreme Realm conditions, she felt herself changing every minute of every second.
All his previous martial arts skills seemed like movable building blocks, which could now be freely combined and matched.
A flood of unprecedented inspirations, like sparks, flashed by time and again.
His martial arts skills also improved rapidly, becoming stronger and more refined at an astonishing pace.
She could sense that if she continued to maintain this state, she might be able to become a Grandmaster in just a few years.
Unfortunately, when she looked up, two more figures with different auras appeared on her right.
The two were a man and a woman, dressed in Silver-Black Uniform representing the Black Ten Sect's headquarters.
The man had a smile on his face, as gentle as a spring breeze.
The woman was tall and slender, wielding a knife with only one arm, her expression somber.
"Heavenly Maiden, I shall repay the kindness of my son who received a slap five years ago." The man proclaimed loudly from afar.
"Why bother talking so much with such Outer Dao? Just kill them!" the One-Armed Woman said coldly.
Tong Zhang, the leader of the "Black Ten Sect," scanned the two of them. Given her usual demeanor, she was naturally not afraid of them.
But now, she suddenly turned and ran wildly in another direction.
They had only run a short distance when two more people appeared ahead.
Two burly, tall, Shadow held a large string of black metal chains in their hands.
"The Heaven Lock Sect's Nether Lock has been waiting for a long time."
One of the two said in a deep voice.
Puff.
Tong Zhang's steps finally came to a stop, and it only took a second for him to go from extremely fast to extremely still.
A metallic taste rose in her throat, but she remained expressionless, suppressing her anger.
Six Spirit Vein Expert in three directions: front, back, and right.
Among them was even a grandmaster. Such an encirclement and attack would be impossible even if he were at his peak, let alone now after being seriously injured. He could only try to escape.
"Stop talking nonsense, take it first!" Yan Xi shouted sharply from behind.
He took the lead, leaped into the air, and pounced towards Tong Zhang.
At the same time, the other five people also pounced from different angles, with varying speeds and agility.
However, the power and force generated when he made his move far exceeded the level of the Ninth Grade rank.
The Heavenly Maiden took a deep breath and leaped into the air to meet the enemy.
