With in-depth internal inspection, Meng Zhou discovered that deep within the body of the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus, the flowing power, which was different from the energy, blood and mana, and was completely unique to the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus, had some power that was infected with it.

A hint of blood.

This is an alien power that does not belong to this body at all.

He tried to get rid of the blood-stained power, but the result was that although these powers were successfully removed, the blood color was also transferred at the same time.

"So, this blood color is not attached to a certain force, but to the body itself.

No matter how I squander the power of this body, as long as the body is still there, this bloody mark will linger in my body like gangrene attached to the bone."

And the impact doesn't stop there.

Within the soul of this spiritual lotus body, there is the same bloody mark.

"So, even changing bodies won't work. Unless the body collapses and the soul is shattered, otherwise, this bloody mark will always follow."

Just this bloody mark made Meng Zhou truly feel the high-end atmosphere of the fourth-level Constellation Palace.

Although the Alchemy Sect has a similar method, the effect is far less stubborn and difficult to remove than this bloody mark.

Not only can the marks be slowly worn away over a long period of time, but some methods can also be used to speed up the erosion of the marks.

Of course, Meng Zhou did not believe that there was a completely unsolvable method in the world.

However, as a fourth-level sect, he has to face off the bloody mark head-on, which is not something he can solve now.

"Fortunately, I don't have to solve it."

Meng Zhou thought in his mind, and reached out to take the divine soul clone in Linglian's body into his palm, and shot those thoughts away.

As these thoughts dissipated, the divine soul clone turned into an ownerless divine will again. With this collapse, nearly half of the bloody mark that was originally imprinted on the divine soul clone disappeared.

"Oh, you're really stubborn."

Meng Zhou praised him, but his hands were already moving skillfully.

He used the technique of dividing the mind and separating the soul to re-forge the masterless mind that was stained with more than half of the blood mark into a divine soul clone.

After it was refined, he defeated it again.

As a result, the bloody mark, which had already suffered heavy losses, was left with only a trace of remnant due to this blow, stubbornly proving its existence.

Unfortunately, this last bit of stubbornness did not last long.

As Meng Zhou defeated Zhonglian for the third time, the bloody mark had completely dissipated, and he returned to his "innocent" body.

Meng Zhou held the soul clone that had become clean again in his hand.

As for this Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone, Meng Zhou shook his head with some regret.

Compared to the special nature of the soul clone, which can be continuously re-refined, he has no good solution for the "polluted" spirit lotus body.

Meng Zhou thought for a while and then reinjected the divine soul clone into the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone.

The next moment, the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone that had been sitting cross-legged stood up and escaped perfectly into the soil of the second-level evil veins.

Based on the consciousness of life, whether it is Meng Zhou himself, the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone, or other Spirit Lotus clones, when performing Earth Escape and integrating with the earth, they will also restrain themselves and it is impossible to really let themselves and the earth escape.

The earth merges into one.

The consequence of doing that is that you can let it go but not take it back, there will be no "I" anymore, there will only be the earth.

But at this moment, the Earth Spirit Golden Lotus clone, under the control of the Divine Soul clone, did not restrain itself at all, but instead continued to release and spread itself out.

Under such changes, the control of the soul clone over the body of the spirit lotus became increasingly weak.

Finally, as a certain critical point was reached, the soul clone completely lost control of the spiritual lotus body.

The release and spread of the spirit lotus body has also become completely irreversible.

Meng Zhou clearly felt that the body of the third-level mid-grade earth spirit golden lotus turned into bits of spiritual essence and silently dissipated into the second-level evil veins.

Under such "self-explanation", the bloody mark was naturally not spared and dissipated into nothingness.

The spiritual essence derived from the third-level mid-grade Earth Spirit Golden Lotus has not completely disappeared.

Floating like duckweeds, they are strongly attracted by those spiritual plants and herbs, blending into them and becoming their nutritional supplements.

For a long period of time since then, this second-level evil vein has become a popular place for many people to practice Qi, build foundations, experience and explore because high-quality spiritual flowers and herbs were often harvested.

…

After dealing with the hidden danger of the blood mark, Meng Zhou finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Start taking inventory of other items.

Meng Zhou first took out the bodies of the mountain ape and the green wolf.

All the memories of "Yan Shizun" have been imported into the "deduction world".

"Yan Shizun"'s head is full of memories, and for the "interpretation of the world", more than 90% of them are at the "fill in the blanks" level.

Among them, many memories are "encrypted" by some special secret methods.

If conventional soul searching techniques are used, these memory information will inevitably be lost.

But what Meng Zhou used was the secret technique of the Lihen Sect, and the Lihen Sect was an existence that had wrestled with the Xingxiu Palace.

Meng Zhou had practiced the soul-pulling technique at the master level, and could easily break through those "encryption layers" and completely import the information inside into the "deduction world" without any waste.

Putting aside the vast amount of precious memories gained, the experience of the soul-pulling technique has been greatly improved as a result.

Song Yang, the newly promoted Dan Dan, withstood three hundred swords and provided him with thirty thousand experience points.

As for "Yan Shizun", who was at the peak of the sixth level of pill formation, he withstood a total of 1,400 swords and was divided into 1,400 parts by him, providing him with 140,000 experience points.

Only this time, the Soul Pulling Technique completed the accumulation of master level, advanced to the realm of grand master, and completed the accumulation of more than half of the master level.

"Master of the Soul Drawing Technique 123,500/240,000"

The complex memories were deposited in the "interpretation world", and Meng Zhou had not had time to clean them up carefully.

It just confirmed the original guess in my mind, that "Yan Shizun" was Yan Zhuang who guarded Cuiyu Lake back then.

Although there is no deliberate cleaning, with the help of some related items, some related memories will automatically come to mind.

Therefore, when Meng Zhou took out the two spirit beast corpses, relevant information also appeared in Meng Zhou's mind.

Meng Zhou therefore knew that Yan Zhuang was not a spirit master, but could only be regarded as a beast master, and his professional level was not high, only at the first-level level.

In Jade Lake, controlling a first-level spiritual bird is the true expression of his level as a beast master.

Not having outstanding talent in this area is one reason, and not spending much time and effort in this area is also an important reason.

When he became a first-level beast master, what he wanted was not to control the beasts, but to obtain a pair of detached eyes, which he could use to cast retroactive light.

The reason why he was able to control two third-order middle-grade spiritual beasts was not his ability, but the "inhumanity" of Xingxiu Palace.

Yes, as relevant memories came to mind, the biggest feeling in Meng Zhou's heart was "the inhumanity of the trenches."

Through Yan Zhuang's memory, Meng Zhou finally had a general understanding of the Xingxiu Palace, which he had never met before but whose name he had heard for a long time.

The Xingxiu Palace is home to a fourth-level spiritual vein covering an area of ​​50,000 miles, the Xingxiu Sea.

In this sea of ​​​​stars that covers an area of ​​50,000 miles, there are many first- and second-order spiritual islands, and there are also several third-order large islands with an area of ​​more than 1,000 miles.

Taken individually, each one is not much worse than Qinglin Peak.

However, the level of development in these places is very low, almost equivalent to no development at all.

All kinds of spiritual plants and flowers, exotic birds and spiritual beasts live in it.

Although there is currently no Nascent Soul Lord in Xingxiu Palace, everything in the Xingxiu Sea has been kept docile and tame by successive generations of Lord Nascent Soul. Any "rebellious" creature has long been treated as a pest or weed.

Cleaned up.

The spiritual beasts that can live in the Xingxiu Sea have already been tamed by the Xingxiu Palace from the bloodline level.

The disciples of Xingxiu Palace are following the elite route of Ningquewulan, and each one of them enjoys treatment that is comparable to, or even exceeds that of Qingxuan Sect's true disciples.

Regardless of other aspects, just talking about the guardian spirit beast, once the Xingxiu Palace disciples form a true elixir, they are eligible to choose a third-level low-grade spiritual beast within the Xingxiu Sea as a guardian spirit beast.

What to do if the loss occurs?

Refill!

What if the cultivation progress is too fast and the growth rate of the guardian spirit beast cannot keep up?

Replace with one with stronger strength and better blood quality!

According to this rule, the Xingxiu Palace disciples in the early stage of pill formation will have a third-level low-grade Tao-protecting spiritual beast;

In the middle stage of pill formation, such as Yanzhuang, there are two third-level middle-grade Tao-protecting spiritual beasts;

When you reach the later stage of pill formation, you will be able to have three-headed, third-level, high-grade guardian spirit beasts.

The only difference is that when the great monks in the late stage of pill formation choose the spiritual beasts to protect the way, they must also consider the wishes of the spiritual beasts themselves. Instead of forcing one from one side, they go for it in both directions.

Because the intelligence of third-level high-grade spiritual beasts is basically the same as that of adults, of course, when choosing a guardian partner, you cannot be rude and forceful.

"You choose the beast, and the beast chooses the man."

"According to Yanzhuang's memory, as long as the quality of the elixir is high enough and the potential is high enough, those powerful spiritual beasts will also compete to become his younger brother.
