"Of course not." Kan Yue's answer was simple and clear.

Kan Yue said with a smile: "We in the Golden Cauldron Territory also have alchemists and weapon refiners, and the Spirit Controlling Territory also has Talisman Makers and Formation Masters. The innate talents of practitioners are various and will not be affected by geographical factors.

It just makes it easier for monks with certain talents to get ahead."

"Uh... you don't seem to understand what I mean." Meng Zhou said.

Kan Yue suddenly stopped laughing and said: "I understand what you mean. You actually want to ask about those ordinary practitioners who are more numerous but don't have any professional talents, right?"

Meng Zhou nodded.

"Of course there will be."

Kan Yue's words made Meng Zhou feel a little better, but only a little. The next moment, Kan Yue's words made him silent and speechless.

"It's just that it's hard for them to have a chance to stand out... Well, they are lucky to be able to grow to the late stage of Qi training.

Most of them are just servants in the early and middle stages of Qi training.

From this perspective, Qingxuan Domain has the most relaxed atmosphere for ordinary monks, and they have the most opportunities."

Meng Zhou was silent for a while and then said: "So, the number of high-level monks in other domains is not as large as that in Qingxuan Domain?"

Kan Yue nodded, shook his head again, and said:

“That should be the case, but before last year, this gap would not have been so obvious.

If you think about it carefully, you should understand that among those monks who were able to break through to foundation building, how many of them had extremely poor talents and got there purely through perseverance?

This is true for foundation building, let alone a strong person who can go all the way through foundation building and advance to the realm of pill formation. Which one is not a one-in-a-thousand genius?

Although the Qi-training monks in the Qingxuan Domain are far superior to those in other domains, the numerical difference is not so obvious at the foundation-building level, and even more so at the Dan-forming realm."

Meng Zhou said softly: "You said it was before last year."

Kan Yue nodded and said with emotion: "Yes, before last year."

As a person who has personally experienced it, Meng Zhou has gone from being novel at the beginning to looking at it indifferently towards the foundation building vision. Meng Zhou believes that everyone in Qinglinfang is like this.

If you are just shocked every time a foundation-building vision is born, then don’t live.

Similarly, Meng Zhou personally witnessed more than three or five cases of the elixir-forming vision.

Although everyone laments how talented the current foundation-building monks are.

But it can’t handle the large number.

Moreover, even if there is one ruthless character among ten parallel imports who is soft yet tough, that is extremely exaggerated.

All three fell into a brief silence.

Ever since the two discussed this topic, Lu Quan seemed very quiet.

He did not have any dissatisfaction because the conversation between the two had actually deviated from their original intention of coming here by a million miles. Instead, he listened very seriously.

Meng Zhou suddenly slapped his forehead, as if he suddenly remembered, and said: "Where is the Alchemy Domain? Do you know about the situation in the Alchemy Domain?"

Lu Quan, who seemed to be distracted, seemed to be awakened by Meng Zhou's sudden words. He also raised his head and looked at Kan Yue with interest.

Kan Yue said: “Each domain has its own characteristics.

But as far as my feeling is concerned, the Alchemy Domain and the Qingxuan Domain are the closest.

Apart from the Qingxuan Domain, the environment in the Alchemy Domain should be the best for ordinary practitioners."

Meng Zhou looked like he was listening attentively, and Lu Quan also smiled softly, seeming very interested.

Kan Yue looked at Meng Zhou and Lu Quan and said:

"If you go to other realms, whether it is the Golden Cauldron Realm, the Hehuan Realm or the Spirit Controlling Realm, people will immediately notice something strange, and you will feel the obvious differences between each other.

But if you go to the Alchemy Domain, you basically don’t need to worry like this.

Anyway, I can't see any difference between you."

After that, the three of them chatted a lot about the similarities and differences between the different domains. However, most of them were Meng Zhou asking, Kan Yue talking, and occasionally Lu Quan would interrupt. The whole conversation was smooth and natural.

When the sky darkened, Meng Zhou had refilled the spiritual tea he had brewed countless times before the three of them stopped enjoying themselves.

Finally, the sunset slanted into the courtyard, and none of the three people spoke. Instead, they lowered their heads and drank the last cup of spiritual tea that was still warm.

The next moment, both Kan Yue and Lu Quan had stood up.

Kan Yue cupped his hands to Meng Zhou and said:

"Fellow Daoist Zhuang, although I have been talking nonsense to you all day, I feel that this trip is worthwhile.

I don’t know how many years it has been, but Kan has never experienced this feeling.

That’s it for today, we can talk about other things later when we find time.”

Lu Quan also smiled and silently handed over to Meng Zhou. Obviously, he and Kan Yue had the same feeling.

It's just that the person named Kan has already finished what he said, so he doesn't need to repeat it again. He just hands it over.

Meng Zhou stood up with a smile and watched the two of them fly away.

After the two of them went away, Meng Zhou closed the formation and sat down again.

Then he started brewing a pot of spiritual tea for himself.

His hands moved habitually, but his thoughts had already sunk into the sea of ​​consciousness.

In the moon mirror, the "video" of the two people from their visit began to be replayed, and the "camera" almost hit Lu Quan's face.

All his expressions are close-ups, including body movements and even changes in energy, all clearly revealed under this moon mirror.

Following Meng Zhou's will, the "video" sometimes goes very fast, sometimes very slow, and sometimes stops, completely according to his will.

Every subtle movement and micro-expression change of Lu Quan will be carefully scrutinized and studied by him.

…

Except when practicing in seclusion, Meng Zhou now keeps the moon mirror open at all times.

Therefore, the moon mirror clearly recorded the entire process from the time the two entered the courtyard to the conversation between the three.

Passing geese leave behind photos, and passing people leave traces.

All the information faithfully recorded by the Moon Mirror, even the minutiae that Meng Zhou never paid attention to, will be deposited in the depths of the soul pool.

This is just like those ordinary daily memories that are dusty in the heart, there is a high probability that there will never be a chance to be recalled again.

But whenever he wants, Meng Zhou can access it at any time.

For any Foundation-Building monk who has opened up the sea of ​​consciousness and has a complete soul, this is an innate ability that can be mastered without learning. Although a Foundation-Building monk cannot completely control his every thought, he can

Clearly know the specific direction of each thought.

In fact, Meng Zhou basically already had the answer in his mind without checking the moon mirror records.

Although Lu Quan concealed himself very well, some changes in micro-expressions and the occasional beat of Qi had already betrayed a lot of information.

Not to mention that Lu Quan is not a professional actor, but a movie king. Under the relaxed and casual atmosphere he deliberately created, how can he achieve the look of every minute, every second, and even every moment?

Do you have a good attitude and a good score?

The changes in Lu Quan were so slight that Kan Yue, who was closer to him, didn't even notice them at all.

But Meng Zhou is different. Firstly, he has already made a guess in his mind. Secondly, he has a powerful soul sensing talent. Whether it is the Moon Mirror or the Heart of Nature, they are all sensing talents.

Furthermore, this is his home court, and the three of them are always under the full coverage of a quasi-third-order formation.

Therefore, before looking through the Moon Mirror records, Meng Zhou already had 70% to 80% guesses in his mind.

After studying every slight change of Lu Quan recorded in the moon mirror frame by frame, this 70% to 80% guess became a 100% certainty.

Lu Quan is a monk from the Alchemy Domain.

When Kan Yue said casually, "I can't see the difference between you two and the monks in the alchemy realm," Lu Quan's energy changed slightly for a moment.

Such coordinated changes are like dancing to the rhythm of the music.

For Meng Zhou, this was equivalent to having the answer written on his face.

…

Today, in the conversation led by Meng Zhou, what appeared in front of Kan Yue and Lu Quan was rambling, and his strong curiosity about all kinds of strange things.

But in fact, every topic guidance is full of "ingenuity".

While talking to the two of them, his mind kept running and he was fine-tuning the direction of the topic based on Lu Quan's reaction.

The most critical thing is that Lu Quan himself cannot be alerted.

Not at all.

This is a special hunt. The most amazing thing is that until the end of the hunt, the prey itself is ignorant.

Little did he know that he had been accurately captured.

But even though he had captured his "prey", Meng Zhou was not happy. Instead, he felt that he had caught a hot potato.

This "prey", or rather, the existence behind this prey, is really too hot to handle.
