Chapter 66: Ginseng Fruit for Drinking
"Deputy Island Master, are you curious? This Jade Sea Bright Moon Pearl was refined by our mermaid clan using a special method. Taking one before retreating can protect your mind and deter external demons. It can also calm your heart and nourish your body."
Yu Xuanji was quite proud of it, as the Blue Sea and Bright Moon Pearl was a specialty of their mermaid clan and was also a very wonderful treasure.
Putting down the beads, Zhang Qian smiled and said, "So that's how it is. This bead is really interesting. By the way, I also want to thank Chief Yu for arranging a maid for me."
Yu Xuanji covered her mouth and smiled: "You mean Qing'er and Yue'er, they are both naive and a little clumsy, the deputy island master should not despise them, if... if the deputy island master feels lonely, they are..."
"cough!"
At this moment, Li Qingque suddenly interrupted Yu Xuanji's hint with a dry cough, and Zhang Qian felt a little embarrassed.
After Yu Xuanji left with a smile, Li Qingque said, "Junior brother, why did you ask Xiao Daoyi for the right to control the three hundred rivers? I thought you would..."
"What? Senior Sister, did you think I would ask for too much, or put forward some conditions that would make Xiao Daoyi give up?"
Without waiting for Li Qingque to answer, Zhang Qian continued, "Senior sister, you also know that my mind is quite powerful. Although this is a good thing, I have already reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. The next realm is the realm of mana. If I want to break through the realm of mana, I need to open up the sea of consciousness and transform the power of my mind into spiritual consciousness."
At this point, Zhang Qian took out the River God token, played with it for a while and said with a smile: "It's OK for ordinary people, they can quickly transform their mental power into spiritual consciousness, but I'm different. My mind is too powerful. If I want to transform it all into spiritual consciousness, it will definitely take a very long time. I don't want to transform it bit by bit. With the right to control these three hundred rivers, I can collect the incense and fire beads from the three hundred river gods, and use the power of the incense and fire beads to speed up the transformation. Moreover, with these three hundred rivers, our Demon Refining Island can also increase some of its foundation. Now our Demon Refining Island doesn't seem to have the right to control any river."
This was Zhang Qian's real plan, he had thought about it a long time ago. Instead of asking Xiao Daoyi for some magical instruments and treasures that he didn't care about, it would be better to ask for the control of these rivers. It would be just right for him to break through the realm of magic power and transform his spiritual consciousness, which would require a lot of incense and magic beads.
"You know when to advance and when to retreat. Three hundred rivers is not too much of a request, otherwise the leader would have stopped you long ago. It's good that you think so. After tomorrow, you will be the deputy island master of our Demon Refining Island, and there are still many things for you to do."
After chatting with Li Qingque for a while, Zhang Qian returned to his own residence.
When I reached the door, I looked up inadvertently and suddenly saw a dark stream of light appearing above the huge void island above the Demon Refining Island.
This stream of light was as thick as a bucket, going straight up and down, extending to the unknown depths of the void.
Dense demonic shadows, with fangs and claws bared, fell through the stream of light.
"That's the devil!"
Zhang Qian's heart moved, and he instantly knew that this was Li Qingcheng trying to capture the demon in the void outside the sky.
After looking at it for a while with great envy, Zhang Qian curled his lips helplessly and returned to his own house.
"My Lord is back! The clan leader just came and brought gifts from Guiyuan Island. Please take a look at them."
As soon as he entered the room, he saw two mermaid girls and a mulberry paper envelope on the table next to him. The envelope looked like a small bundle. Zhang Qian shook it in his hand and only heard a series of crisp sounds of shattering. He had no idea what was inside.
"Is this the gift from Guiyuan Island?"
Zhang Qian threw the paper seal aside without rushing to check it.
The two mermaids fetched water in a basin and served him happily, looking very attentive. After Zhang Qian washed his face like a puppet, he looked at the rich wine and food on the table and couldn't help showing a strange look. He was really hungry. He had been in Shangyuan Bajing Palace for nearly a day, and he couldn't fast. He was already very hungry.
Qing'er poured Zhang Qian a glass of wine. Zhang Qian suddenly sighed as he smelled the aroma of the wine.
"My Lord, do you dislike this wine?"
Zhang Qian waved his hand, drank it all in one gulp, smacked his lips and said, "That's not the case. I just remembered something. You two are suddenly so attentive today. I'm a little uncomfortable with it. Do you have something to ask of me?"
It has been millions of years since Zhang Qian last had a drink. In his previous life in the primitive world, where could he get a drink? He once wanted to brew some by himself, maybe he could gain some merit from heaven and become a god of wine. Unfortunately, in the end he only got a pool of stinking rotten fruit, which almost made him faint. From then on, he gave up this idea.
Yue'er glanced at Qing'er and hesitated for a while. It was not until Zhang Qian became impatient that she said, "Sir,... is it you who gave us the cultivation methods of Silver Face and Red Face? Can you... teach us?"
Zhang Qian was slightly stunned, then he remembered that he didn't see Silver Face and Red Face after he came back, and asked hurriedly: "By the way, where are Silver Face and Red Face? Why don't I see them?"
"After they knew that you had broken into Shangyuan Bajing Palace, they said they didn't want to embarrass you, so they ran to the lake at the foot of the mountain to practice."
Zhang Qian nodded with amusement; "You are quite ambitious. You learned the cultivation method from them, right? It's not impossible for me to teach you. But..."
Zhang Qian pondered over this. Yue'er didn't know what she was thinking about. Her face turned red with shame. She stammered, "We... do you want us to sleep with you, sir? We are willing to do that."
puff!
Zhang Qian spat out the food in his mouth and coughed speechlessly: "What are you thinking? I mean that Silver Face and Red Face's cultivation methods are not suitable for you. They are spirits, and you are monsters. You are not suitable for the cultivation method I gave them. Don't worry. When I have time, I will find a method suitable for monsters to practice and pass it on to you."
The two mermaid girls looked at each other in surprise and hurriedly thanked Zhang Qian. Zhang Qian waved his hand to send them away. When the door was closed, he thought about it and the Demon Pagoda appeared.
brush!
The shadowy figure of Demon II landed: "Greetings, Lord Demon! What do you want, Lord Demon?"
"Devil No. 2, please conjure up some ginseng fruits!"
Hearing Zhang Qian's instructions, Mo Er waved his hand obediently, and suddenly a pile of ginseng fruits appeared on the table in front of Zhang Qian, with a strange fragrance.
After enjoying a piece of fruit with great satisfaction, Zhang Qian praised: "Well done."
Demon II was immediately overjoyed: "It is my honor to serve the Lord Demon."
Waving his hand to take back Demon Two, Zhang Qian immersed himself in the wonderful taste of the ginseng fruit. After eating for a long time, he touched his stomach and said regretfully: "It's a pity that it's all fake. I can only taste it. No matter how much I eat, it won't fill my stomach."
If Li Qingcheng knew that he used the Heavenly Demon in this way, I wonder what she would think. Li Qingcheng is now using all his energy to subdue the Heavenly Demon.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Qian was full and walked towards his bedroom.
Sitting cross-legged on the cloud bed, he looked inward, mobilized the Taiyi Demon Refining Qi in his Dantian, and circulated it along the meridians for a week. Then, with a firm mind, the Qi suddenly jumped into an extremely hidden meridian, in which five acupoints appeared alone.
These are the last five acupoints recorded in the "Taiyi Demon Refining Golden Chapter". As long as these five acupoints are opened up, Zhang Qian will be able to complete the number of 365 Zhoutian.
