Zhu Qian, who used to love drinking tea, saw two teacups on the table and said directly: "You two drink slowly."

Meng Zhou said: "Has your teacher made it clear to you?"

Zhu Qian nodded and said nothing.

"Then what are your plans?" Meng Zhou asked.

Zhu Qian looked at him and asked, "Will you let my teacher go?"

Meng Zhou smiled and said, "Why don't you ask your teacher if she is really willing to leave?"

Zhu Qian said in a muffled voice:

"Then besides staying in Sanchuan Yuan, where else can I go?

Could it be that after she has you, she won’t even want me as her apprentice?!"

Meng Zhou ignored the emotional and shocking words behind her and nodded with a smile.

Zhu Qian took the initiative to choose to stay in Sanchuan Yuan, which was the best choice for both herself and Bai Zhi.

The same is true for Meng Zhou, which can save him a lot of things.

"Then I will give you a token and leave you a room here so that you can always be with your teacher?"

Zhu Qian shook her head like a rattle, "No, I'll go live outside and won't disturb you two."

After that, she headed directly towards the gate of the cave.

"You're leaving so soon? You really don't want to sit down and have a chat?"

Originally, she had no emotions at all, but seeing "Zhuang Sheng" acting so unconcerned, as if he didn't know what was going on, she felt a little suffocated for no reason.

"No, I... I still need to report to the association and find a place to live... You two can talk slowly."

It was not until Zhu Qian left that Bai Zhi appeared again. She looked at Meng Zhou and whispered:

"You used to have a good relationship with Sissi?"

When she said this, a blush appeared on her face, and she felt a sense of guilt and shame for having robbed her apprentice's man.

Meng Zhou glanced at her and said, "Where did you think you were? It's just that we can sit down and have a cup of tea and chat casually every now and then."

Bai Zhi said: "She asked me for the second-level member's token magic weapon for you, and also asked for the soul refining method of the 'Spiritual Tree Towering Map'... This is the only time she helped others through the back door."

Meng Zhou shook his head, but didn't say anything more about it.

Seeing him like this, Bai Zhi, who had a lot to say, finally stopped the topic.

After a while, she suddenly looked at Meng Zhou and asked, "Are you Ge Ping or Zhuang Sheng?"

Meng Zhou smiled and said, "Is this important?"

Bai Zhi's eyes widened, "But I can't even know who you are, right?"

"I'm sitting in front of you clearly, what's so confusing about this?

No matter 'Ge Ping' or 'Zhuang Sheng', they are just titles.

Will this be any hindrance to our relationship?"

Bai Zhi was a little confused by what he said, but she felt that what he said made sense.

"Then...do you have any other titles?"

"You will naturally know if you have the opportunity in the future."

…

After tasting the benefits of sublimating the body refining method to the third level and integrating into the three-pole cycle, Meng Zhou naturally set his sights on the final soul refining method.

But after a month of meditation, Meng Zhou chose to give up.

It's not that the soul refining method can't advance to the third level, it's that he can't enter the third level in the way he wants.

If you just want to upgrade the soul refining method to the third level, it is not difficult.

It is much easier than upgrading your self-created body training method to the third level.

Now, he not only has the "Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers Map" originally obtained from Chairman Pan, but also the "Fierce Yang Zhengqi Map" recently obtained from the Sanchuan Society, and the third-level cultivation method of the "Lingmu Towering Map" provided by Bai Zhi

, and the "Han Cicada Autumn Killing Picture" provided by the Blue Blood Army.

If he needs it, with the current energy of the Sanchuan Society and the Jade Blood Army, as long as they are given more time, they can provide him with more third-level soul refining methods as a reference.

But after careful study, Meng Zhou stopped asking them for the third-level soul refining method. At the same time, he even paused his own study of the third-level soul refining method.

Meng Zhou thought very clearly that what he needed was not to simply upgrade the existing soul refining method to the third level, so that the "jing", "qi" and "spirit" could all reach the third level balance to circulate in these three poles.

Get the most benefit from it.

That's not what he wants.

In his vision, the ultimate goal of the cycle of the three poles of essence, Qi and Shen is to integrate the three poles of Jing, Qi and Shen into one body.

Qi refining method, body refining method, and soul refining method will eventually be integrated into one "refining method".

Even though this idea is not realistic at this stage, efforts must be made in this direction.

At present, the soul refining method is the most convenient to become the "glue" to integrate the characteristics of Qi refining and body refining.

Therefore, in his vision, this third-level soul refining method must not only possess the characteristics of the Spring Water Sutra, but also possess the essence of the Black Turtle Bearing Monument True Skill.

At the same time, the characteristics of the soul refining method itself cannot be lost.

After a month of meditation, the only gain is that this goal has been clarified.

After making this clear, Meng Zhou decisively stopped studying the soul refining method.

Because for now, this goal is impossible to achieve.

Let’s take a look at what the Qi Refining Method and the Body Refining Method are like now.

The method of refining qi is pieced together and patched together.

The body-refining method was created out of nothing, with only a rough framework.

They themselves are not "complete" yet, so trying to integrate their essence into the soul refining method is naturally a fantasy.

Therefore, this matter can only be considered at least until the day when he has perfected the Chun Shui Sutra and the Black Turtle Bearing Tablet technique and truly mastered them.

After clarifying this point, Meng Zhou naturally did not continue to waste time on the soul refining method.

…

September, the fifth day of the lunar month.

The progress of cultivation is +315, and the first level of elixir formation is 1425/10,000.

Third-level Spring Water Sutra +2100, initial success is 8400/15,000.

Black Turtle Bearing Monument True Skill +2100, entry level 4200/7500.

…

"With this kind of cultivation efficiency, it's incredible."

After giving up his obsession with the soul refining method, Meng Zhou began to consider his next plan.

After putting aside the matter of comprehending the soul refining method for the time being, the most urgent idea in his heart was to increase the soul attack, soul defense, and more methods involving the soul.

And when he thought about the elixir knotting celebration at the end of the month, Meng Zhou quickly had an idea in his mind.

"For such a big event, not to mention the monks from other places, all the foundations within the Sanchuan Plain will definitely attend."

If "Zhuang Sheng" hadn't appeared by then, this identity would not be far away from being completely abolished.

With his current ability, although he can move his true body, he can also control the activities of a spiritual lotus clone while being distracted.

But this will appear somewhat rigid and uncoordinated.

Moreover, there is a big problem with the Earth Spirit Lotus clone that he currently places in Zhuangtianzhuang. That is, he can only control the Earth Spirit Lotus clone by actively exploring his thoughts and connecting with the Earth Spirit Lotus clone.

Other times, the Earth Spirit Lotus clone is no different from a doll.

This will make the clone lack sufficient adaptability.

Meng Zhou, who often retreats and is immersed in various cultivation projects for a long time, cannot pay attention to the activities at Zhuang Tianzhuang every now and then.

Therefore, his current method of using the Earth Spirit Lotus clone to maintain his presence in Zhuangtianzhuang can only have a temporary effect.

Over time, it will become less effective.

And this question, in the large amount of information inheritance of the Lihen Sect that he absorbed into the sea of ​​consciousness, there happened to be a ready answer.

At the beginning, when he was forming the elixir, the monk who was doing tricks in the dark and was caught by Ding Ning outside Sanchuan City turned out to be a fake elixir monk.

He was controlled by the demon cultivator who was good at using soul-eating cold flames with his hands and used an evil third-level secret technique called "distracting the soul and separating the soul" to seize the body and turn it into a half-puppet and half-clone body.

Only then did Ding Ning feel confused.

On the one hand, because of the third-level secret technique of "distracting the mind and separating the soul", the clone has the same performance as a third-level pill-forming monk in terms of soul.

On the other hand, that body only has fake elixir cultivation. Even if it burns life essence and blood in a desperate situation and obtains a greater burst of strength for a short time, it still seems a bit "empty" compared with the real elixir.

It was this sense of difference that made Ding Ning, who had keen intuition, sense something was wrong with the opponent immediately after fighting against him.
