Chapter 106 Strength! Deterrence
After Zheng Yi left seclusion, armed with the intimidation of the new foundation-building period, the Qi family carried out a ruthless cleansing of the surrounding area.
It caused an uproar.
Zheng Yi asked Qi Lin to act freely and not care about the reaction of the outside world. If a cruel killing could deter the surrounding forces, it would be a good thing.
During this period, he was in retreat and began to carefully sort out his physical condition after the foundation building period.
Compared to the Qi training stage, only after entering the foundation building stage can one truly enter the threshold of the path to immortality and be qualified to call oneself a Taoist.
The so-called person who seeks the Tao is nothing more than this.
The reason why it is called foundation building is because this realm is the foundation of immortality for all cultivators. The subsequent Zifu period, Jindan period, and even the rumored Nascent Soul period all started from this point. , born from it.
So after Zheng Yi became a monk in the foundation building stage, he had physical specificities, so he naturally had to sort them out to facilitate his future practice and combat.
“Sure enough, the ancestral lotus blood lotus has taken root in the Dantian!”
Zheng Yi sat cross-legged and meditated, looking inside his body. In the Dantian Qi sea, a bunch of bloody lotuses bloomed and swayed. In the center was a bunch of lotus pods, with a total of thirty-seven lotus seeds. The lotus seed at the core was like an illusion, faintly suppressing the center. .
As the ancient technique Blood Lotus Meridian circulates in the meridians in the body, an extremely complex system network is formed.
The thick blood energy was swallowed up by the Ancestral Lotus Blood Lotus, and then purified, releasing more blood energy and mana. The two sides met in the sea of qi, and they continued to become more purified.
The Ancestral Lotus Blood Lotus floats in the sea of qi, just like taking root in a pond. Zheng Yi's Dantian supports the entire group of blood lotus, taking root and sprouting directly inside, deeply embedded in the magic power.
In order to break through the foundation building period, a lot of health has been lost, and it needs to be made up for in order to regain the previous foundation.
But because of the existence of the Blood Lotus Ancestral Lotus, this problem does not exist at all.
The blood energy is still thick, and the turbulent blood energy is like a rushing river. The sound flows directly from the body. It is unpredictable how terrifying the content is.
This also makes the efficiency of mana conversion in Zheng Yi's body increase by more than 50%, and the speed of absorbing and strengthening the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is astonishingly fast.
Moreover, Zheng Yi noticed that the ancestral lotus blood lotus absorbed mana and continuously transformed it into another kind of strange blood energy. The blood lotus became more and more delicate, and the lotus seed in the center of the lotus pod, It also gradually became more solid.
Generally speaking, after lotus flowers in nature wither, the lotus pods gradually grow and develop, eventually producing lotus seeds.
But the blood lotus is an ancient thing. There is nothing strange about the existence of lotus, lotus seeds, and lotus pods at the same time.
After this thing was refined by Zheng Yi, it was like a transit device and an energy storage device. It was connected to the breath mana in his body and took root in the sea of dantian, almost becoming his body's energy. part.
The Blood Lotus suppresses the center of the Qi Sea, like a giant cauldron of heaven and earth, sorting out the Qi veins of Zheng Yi's body, making his background much higher than others.
This is also the peculiarity of the ancient skills. The strong mana is just an accessory. Apart from having extremely high requirements for external objects and being a large consumer of resources, there are no other problems.
With the nourishment of magic power, the blood lotus becomes more and more delicate and beautiful, as if it has just been picked and bloomed.
“Because of the existence of the Ancestral Lotus Blood Lotus, after I entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, the volume of the Dantian Qi Sea expanded nearly double that of the average Foundation Establishment Stage monk!”
“And the Blood Lotus It is still growing, and the expansion speed of my Qi Sea will not slow down.”
“This is the peculiarity of the Blood Lotus Sutra, and it is also the reason why it is called the Lotus Embryo, turning Sumeru into Meson. , the lotus never dies, the sea of blood never dries up, this is the secret of this ancient technique..."
After Weiwei calculated his own mana fluctuations and the volume of the sea of Qi in his Dantian, Zheng Yi calculated this conclusion.
This is obviously one of the benefits brought by the Ancestral Lotus Blood Lotus taking root in the Dantian.
The larger the Dantian space is, the more mana the monk can gather, the foundation will be more solid, and the attacks released during battle will be more powerful, with stronger durability and endurance.
This is like the theory of filling water in a bottle, and it also represents the upper limit of cultivation. The monk's own Dantian Qi sea is like a water tank. How much water can be held? The volume of the water tank is a large threshold. .
At the same time, also because of the existence of the Blood Lotus Sutra and the Ancestral Lotus, Zheng Yi did not have to worry about the sufficient blood in his body before he advanced to the Zifu stage.
The blood lotus is a natural treasure created by absorbing the flesh and blood essence of countless zombies, containing endless essence.
Although it will not make him fat in one go, it will continuously gather in his body and transform the capacity of his flesh and blood, like a trickle, and eventually merge into a river and sea.
This is a long-term process that gradually changes Zheng Yi's body.
Compared with other ordinary monks in the foundation building stage, his current mana has been fully increased by 50%.
This is also an effect of Zheng Yi's continuous swallowing of blood lotus seeds.
The remaining item is the soul.
In this regard, the Blood Lotus Sutra cannot help at all.
But because of the blessing of the secret method of the divine soul, the "Five Zang Temple God Feeding Method", his divine soul began to transform.
After an ordinary monk enters the foundation building stage, his spiritual consciousness will sense radiation, which is about ninety feet. Zheng Yi’s soul also has more than 20% more radiation, and the radiation range is one hundred and one hundred feet. Ten feet.
This is still the five ghost infant sword fetus, and there is only one reason why it is enshrined on the altar.
When the five ghost babies gather together, the range of the soul radiation will be doubled and doubled, which is enough to compare with the strength of the soul of high-level monks in the foundation building stage.
To summarize, compared to the general initial stage of foundation building, Zheng Yi has constant blood, more than 50% of his mana, and his soul is still increasing rapidly.
With these integrated together, even though Zheng Yi has just entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, his strength is already close to that of a top-level Foundation Establishment Stage mid-level monk.
When I meet Taoist Huang Hu again, it is no exaggeration to say that killing him is like slaughtering a dog.
......
Two days later, Zheng Yi ended his retreat and directly summoned Qi Lin to praise his performance in the Qi family defense battle.
"Subordinates dare not be greedy for credit. Everything is done by adults and leaders are good."
Qi Lin said very respectfully.
One of his great advantages is that he is able to position himself very well and does not dare to go too far just because he is familiar with Zheng Yi.
Qi Lin has been a mine steward for many years, and he understands a truth that he was able to prosper under the suppression of his master's family.
When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden. The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked.
Just because a person in power is amiable to you does not mean that you are qualified to be friends with him. If you say it, he is just a polite corporal. If you don't take it seriously, you will be unlucky.
What's more, Zheng Yi has now entered the foundation building stage, and his status has been turned upside down. Even though he behaves very calmly, the aura that penetrates into the bone marrow still makes the monks in the Qi training stage feel great pressure.
Qilin was more respectful than before.
“No need to flatter, do your job well, I will not treat useful people badly.”
“There must be chaos outside during the days I have been in seclusion. Is there any specific information progress? "
Looking at Qi Lin, Zheng Yi waved his hand and asked him to report what happened recently.
"Sir..."
Qi Lin calmed down his expression and reported seriously some major events that happened during Zheng Yi's retreat.
Closing his eyes and listening to Qi Lin's report, Zheng Yi's expression did not change, and he began to think secretly in his heart.
The situation is relatively safe for the time being. In the new foundation building period, it is still easy to protect the Qi family’s territorial advantage.
What's more, after he went into seclusion, the Qi family used thunder to sweep away fallen leaves and forcibly cleansed a large number of people. A series of cruel killings and a tough attitude made other forces understand that he, a newly promoted person in the foundation building stage, had a temper. Not very good either.
So many small forces that stirred up trouble and trouble have gone dormant, and the surrounding situation seems to have calmed down.
Of course there are undercurrents, this is inevitable.
This environment is suitable for the development of the Qi family.
After reporting completely to Zheng Yi in one breath, Qi Lin thought of something and tried to ask Zheng Yi.
"Sir, everything is going smoothly now. It is very difficult for the family caravan to expand."
"Look, is the establishment of the city that was previously proposed by my subordinates going to be put on the agenda?" Thanks to the flagship product of the Essence Stone, the Qi family caravan has developed well this year and has continued to trade in other magic cities.
But it is the territory of outsiders after all. When trading Essence Stones, not only do you need to pay a large amount of tax deductions, but more importantly, the price is also determined by them. It is certain that most of the profits fall on the major magic cities.
And because Zheng Yi has been promoted to foundation building, the interests of the subsequent caravan can no longer meet his cultivation needs and self-interests.
The Qi family needs development, and it is only natural to establish a city during the foundation building period.
So, when Qi Lin put forward this suggestion again, Zheng Yi thought about it and felt that it was feasible.
The time was wrong before, but now the time has finally come.
The Soul-Capturing Sect is currently in civil strife, and the Star Devouring Demon City has an ambiguous attitude. It is busy wrangling with the Barbarian Beast Sect and has no time to care about anything else.
He has also broken through the foundation building period and has the qualifications to take charge of the city.
Besides, after a year of development, the Qi family has a considerable number of caravans. Naturally, it can purchase goods from various places. Coupled with the tight Jingshi stone business, it will be enough to open up the market. It will definitely be profitable by then. Buy and sell.
His cultivation after the foundation building period will also require a large amount of wealth to support him.
The resources of the doomsday world are only one aspect. Other things such as spiritual stones cannot be born. Therefore, after hearing Qi Lin’s suggestion again, Zheng Yi also felt that the time was ripe. Without any hesitation, he directly Agree.
"The preparation and establishment of Fang City will be entirely left to you. You can train a few assistants to divide the family and Fang City into two different systems for management. The blood monks with other surnames on the Fang City side are in charge. "
Zheng Yi is actually not a particularly generous person at heart. He must hold everything in his hands. This is also his principle after becoming a demon cultivator.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future, he needs to prepare in advance to avoid being ugly in the future and being accused of killing the donkey.
After all, wealth is attractive to people. Once the market is opened and a large number of spiritual stones are circulated every day, he can only feel relieved if he leaves this job to those blood monks.
Because the lives of these blood monks are in his hands, and his life and death can be decided in a single thought, so the blood monks are the force that Zheng Yi trusts most.
After explaining everything, Qi Lin wanted to turn around and go down to make arrangements, but was stopped by Zheng Yi.
"The things in Fangshi cannot be built in a short time. Now you have a more important thing, which is to improve your strength!"
Zheng Yi glanced at him and said.
"In the future, you will have more and more things to manage. If your cultivation level is too low, it will be difficult to convince the public, so you need to work harder to improve your cultivation level."
His eyes were fixed on Qi Lin, letting Qi Lin Lin wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling very uncomfortable and under great pressure.
In the past year, because he had more resources, Zheng Yi also rewarded Qi Lin with two blood lotus seeds. Qi Lin was already in the middle stage of Qi training, which was a qualitative leap compared to the beginning.
But with such a speed of improvement, it is impossible to keep up with Zheng Yi's footsteps, nor can it keep up with the development of the Qi family, and will be left behind sooner or later.
With his original qualifications, practicing Qi at the eighth level in his lifetime would be almost as good as burning incense. This requires sufficient supply of cultivation resources.
But Zheng Yi is not a man who can only hide his good bows when all the birds are gone.
Over the past year, he felt that Qi Lin had done things well and rationally, especially this time. He was very satisfied with Qi Lin's handling of the matter, and he was not stingy with rewards.
“I give this to you, I hope you will not disappoint my expectations!”
Zheng Yi took out a transparent parasitic bat egg. Compared with the original generation of Qi family’s blood cultivators, , this parasitic bat egg has grown in size, with a silver-white bat curled up inside, and the light exuding is more gorgeous and brighter.
One look at it and you can't take your eyes away.
"This is the first batch of second-generation parasitic bats with specific mutated forms!"
"You know your situation, and your qualifications are not very good. You want to go further and reach the threshold of the foundation building stage in your lifetime. You can only use foreign objects."
"I think this parasitic bat with a special form is your only chance. Whether you can seize it depends on you!"
Zheng Yi waved his hand, and Qi Lin hurriedly held the silver-white parasitic bat egg carefully. His whole body felt surprised, frightened, and also filled with great excitement.
To be honest, the status of a monk is ultimately based on his achievements in cultivation.
It is impossible to say that Qi Lin is not envious when he sees the many younger members of his family overtaking each other one by one. However, his own family knows about his family affairs. Compared with many younger generations, cultivation is indeed not his. Expertise.
So, Zheng Yi has not given him parasitic bat eggs, and Qi Lin gradually gave up on this idea.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Yi still remembered this incident and rewarded him with such a precious mutated parasitic bat. Qilin suddenly felt pressured and frightened. He felt as if he would die for his confidant.
Of course, Zheng Yi’s own considerations and considerations are included in this.
First of all, the safety of the fused parasitic bat eggs cannot be guaranteed. It is difficult to find a management talent. Qi Lin has a special status in the Qi family. It is not necessary. Zheng Yi will not put him in danger.
Moreover, the first generation of parasitic bat eggs are all third, fourth and fifth generation. Zheng Yi feels that their potential is not too great.
But this time, among the people who were first embraced by the ancestor of the zombies, the magic bat Cain, his offspring gave birth to a second-generation parasitic bat with a mutated form. Zheng Yi thought about it and thought that he had achieved great results through hard work in the Qilin. , and rewarded him.
Zheng Yi travels between the two worlds of Doomsday and Immortal Realm, and it is impossible to stay in the Qi family permanently. As a representative, Qi Lin shows up in public, but his strength is too low to control the situation. Zheng Yi's face is still lost.
The male parent of this second-generation species is the offspring of Cain, the ancestor of the zombie blood bats. They have greater potential, and from their bloodline, they can suppress other blood monks who fuse the eggs of parasitic bats.
The bloodline of Cain, the ancestor of the zombies, the magic bat, is in the shape of a pyramid. This suppression of the bloodline allows Qi Lin to control the entire family more conveniently.
Those blood monks are now the core strength of the Qi family.
Furthermore, even in the apocalyptic world, only Jin Wugao was lucky enough to fuse one of the second-generation parasitic bats, doubling the development of his own abilities.
The most advantageous point is the unique form. After the fusion of the second-generation parasitic bat, the peculiarities of the whole body can be converged. It will only be revealed when it is fully activated. It is usually difficult to detect.
After the fusion, Jin Wukan's physical fitness, strength, speed, etc. increased even more. There was no external change, except that the pupils of his eyes turned silver-white.
“A villain is willing to follow an adult, go through fire and water, no matter what!”
Qi Lin immediately knelt down and kowtowed. Zheng Yi glanced at him but did not stop him.
This can be regarded as a skylight opened by Zheng Yi for him, but whether he can achieve anything depends on himself.
Even if the probability is low, Qi Lin is still very happy, which shows that Zheng Yi still values him very much.
There was no chance before, but now he has seen the light of day, and Qi Lin is very satisfied.
For such an adult, Qi Lin felt that he was not with the wrong person at all, and he was going to put in 120% of his efforts to do everything well.
When Qi Lin calmed down, Zheng Yi gave him a few words of advice, but gave him a week to make a breakthrough.
During this period, Zheng Yi was in charge of the Qi family!
Zheng Yi ordered Qi Lin to go into seclusion.
Fusing second-generation parasitic bat eggs is not that simple, and it is also dangerous. Qi Lin's strength and qualifications are average, so he needs to concentrate.
Zheng Yi broke through the foundation-building period and took charge of the Qi family, already as stable as Mount Tai.
However, he doesn't care about the various chores and commercial matters of the Qi family. He is responsible for the various caravan leaders and shopkeepers, and the operation is in good condition. There will be no problems in the short term.
The Qi family’s deeds and deeds have all been explained, and there will be no mistakes.
These days, various forces come from time to time to send greetings, and Zheng Yi just orders the stewards to handle it themselves.
As a monk in the foundation building stage, he has this qualification, not to mention everyone knows that he has just made a breakthrough, so it makes perfect sense to retreat to consolidate his realm.
These matters are handled by dedicated personnel, so there is no need to trouble Zheng Yi, and he will be at ease.
In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.
On this day, Zheng Yi finished meditating and just opened his eyes when the report from the housekeeper on duty sounded outside the door.
"A person from the Soul Capture Sect is here? Has the civil strife been resolved? Why are you coming to me?"
"Yixunyou, this name is still very familiar..."
