Without spiritual roots, is it really impossible to cultivate?

He didn't ask this question.

Zheng Yi has no bones and cannot cultivate.

Although he was a little regretful, he was not discouraged.

He has the treasure mirror of yin and yang and the innate yin and yang energy. Even if he cannot cultivate, he can still achieve immortality.

Even if it takes thousands or ten thousand years, he still doesn't believe it and can't find a way to cultivate without spiritual roots.

And...

There are still many secrets in the Yin Yang Treasure Book that he has not fully unearthed.

For example, what will be the effect of using ten pure yin energies to give birth to ten girls?

For another example, what will happen after using pure Yang energy to give birth to a man?

These are all still waiting for him to explore.

Perhaps, there is a secret in this that allows him to cultivate without spiritual roots!

And...

Nanyue County Yuechan!

The Baiyue people of Nanyue County presented a woman named ‘Yuechan’, who was gifted with cultivation.

This talent... is also the spiritual root?

"Huh..."

He breathed a long sigh of relief, and with a thought, a Blood Moon Gu crawled out from his sleeve.

Zhao Xizheng on the side had his eyes straightened. He wanted to but didn't dare to approach, so he could only look at Zheng Yi eagerly.

Zheng Yi said: "Master Zhao, if you satisfy me about the last question, it will be yours!"

"Okay, you ask!"

"Where is the world of cultivation today?"

Zheng Yi solemnly asked: "Where are the cultivators hiding?"

"The world of cultivation is overseas~"

Zhao Xizheng said indifferently: "Three thousand years ago, the path to immortality was cut off. Some monks started a massacre in order to compete for the last resources, using the power of their fellow practitioners to make up for their own consumption."

"After all, a dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist, hehehehe."

"The other part is to take the disciples or set off alone to go to the distant endless sea to find an island with spiritual energy to stay temporarily."

"Thousands of years of development and search have finally allowed many monks to find small islands with thin spiritual energy and live there."

"Fishing country?"

"No, it's further away than the fishing country."

Zhao Xizheng said: "I heard that those monks had the ability to fly and they were able to fly for three years. Your Majesty, you should stop thinking about going to the world of cultivation."

"The world of overseas cultivation is so far away, let alone here."

"But, as far as I know, the environment around these small islands is particularly poor, and the spiritual energy is getting thinner and thinner. There are not many high-level monks at all, and they only rely on low-level monks to maintain them."

"Low-level monks don't even dare to fight outside, because they are afraid that their magic power will be exhausted and there will be no spiritual energy to replenish it."

Zhao Xizheng pulled a chicken leg and said: "The overseas islands are not bad, there are still some spiritual herbs and elixirs surviving on some inaccessible islands, and it is even possible to find spiritual sand."

"But it's hard to say here on the mainland. The spiritual energy is thin and there are very few monks."

"Even if there are, most of them are hiding in the depths of famous mountains and rivers that are inaccessible, hiding from the world."

"Some of them are hiding in the formations established by their ancestors and trying to survive."

"Does Heavenly Master know Huo Lingzi?"

"Of course I know the deputy owner of Mayfly Tower. I heard from Su Ling that he participated in the rebellion and was repulsed by His Majesty?"

"Yes, how much cultivation does this person have?"

"In the later stages of Qi training, he can be considered a giant in today's world of cultivation."

Zheng Yi suddenly asked: "Is Master Zhao a monk?"

"Is this another question?"

"Not really, I'm just a little curious."

Zheng Yi casually threw the Blood Moon Gu to Zhao Xizheng, causing him to catch it in a hurry.

"Old Heavenly Master, this Blood Moon Gu can only be refined through sacrifice, and there is no way to control it. Moreover, it is refined with my essence and blood."

Zheng Yi said: "You have to keep an eye on it if you get it, otherwise you won't do my business if it runs away."

Zhao Xizheng took out a strange jade bottle, put it away, and then said with satisfaction:

"This little spiritual insect, how could I let it escape?"

"Old Taoist, I'd better tell you. Tao Tao, I am one hundred and fifty-seven years old, and I am in the late stage of Qi training."

Zhao Xizheng lamented: "In this life...there is no hope of building a foundation!"

Zheng Yi's eyes flashed and he said: "Master Heavenly Master, why don't you come down from the mountain to help me? I am willing to give you as a national master."

Zhao Xizheng rolled his eyes at him and said: "No, I still want to live a few more days."

"I am a Taoist sect who likes purity and freedom most."

"If you go down the mountain to become an official, you will inevitably be contaminated by the aura of the world, which will be detrimental to your practice. Little Emperor, you should find someone else."

Zheng Yi hit the snake and went up to the pole and said: "Why don't Master Tian introduce a few monks to become officials in the court?"

"I think after so many years, many monks must be tired of this kind of life. Why don't you come here? I guarantee that you will enjoy endless glory and wealth!"

"Learn literature and martial arts, and your goods will be in the imperial family!"

"I think no matter how noble the monks are, they still want to eat, drink, have sex, and enjoy themselves. As long as they are available in the world, I can provide them. How about that?"

"This..."

Zhao Xizheng hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said: "This is inappropriate. Monks have different preferences and temperaments. What if they do something illegal and hurt His Majesty..."

"Then please ask the Heavenly Master to introduce some people who are gentle and not good at fighting."

Zheng Yi hurriedly said: "As long as the Heavenly Master can introduce someone, I am willing to give him the blood moon Gu as a gift!"

Ordinary Blood Moon Gu, as long as it has infinite lifespan, it can be infinitely refined without much trouble.

But if it can attract one or two monks, that would be a good thing.

Moreover, what he requires is people with gentle temperaments, good intentions, who are not good at fighting, and who cannot cause big trouble.

Besides, according to what Zhao Xizheng said, today's mainland cultivation world is full of low-level monks. I understand that Huo Lingzi is already the best among them, and he will be defeated by Xu Mujun.

Now there are two Xiantian realm warriors in his palace, and with the presence of the five pure Yin Qi, more Xiantian realm warriors will inevitably appear in the future.

For example, Zhao Suling.

Duan Fei Xu Qingluan!

Coupled with the power of gunpowder, even if Huo Lingzi comes in person, he will be unable to eat and carry around!

"Blood Moon Gu..."

Master Zhao scratched his head and said, "Why do I need so many Blood Moon Gu... fight with crickets?"

"Forget it, let me write to a few old friends and ask."

"But whether they go or not is beyond my control."

Zheng Yi immediately said: "Thank you very much, Heavenly Master."

"Whether this matter is successful or not, I can be regarded as accepting the love of Heavenly Master."

"Whatever Taiyi asks for, I will agree to it."

"Forget it, I still want to be stable for a while~"

Zhao Xizheng shook his head and rejected Zheng Yi's kindness.

"It's getting late, your Majesty, please go down the mountain."

Zheng Yi stood up, cupped his hands and said: "This will trouble the Heavenly Master, I will leave now."

"Don't leave in a hurry~"

The Heavenly Master said with a sly smile: "You can stay here for a few more days and let me study your Blood Moon Gu."

"If I guess correctly, this art of practicing Gu should be an inheritance of the Mayfly Sect."

"I don't know what method your Majesty used to successfully sacrifice it before it entered the innate world."

"It's just that this bug is a bit strange. I've never seen it before..."

"Bugs?"

Zheng Yi immediately said: "This insect is the moonlight Gu presented by the Baiyue people."

"Moonlight Gu, no wonder, those Yue people in Nanyue County used to be insect servants who specialized in raising spiritual insects for the disciples of the Mayfly Sect. There are also many good things in the clan~"

The old Heavenly Master said: "You used your essence and blood to practice Moonlight Gu. Your physique was damaged and your qi and blood were thin. Even if you use precious medicine to make up for it, it will not be enough."

"In the past few days, I will teach you some methods of self-cultivation and health, which will also help you restore your energy and blood."

Zheng Yi's heart moved and he immediately said: "Thank you, Heavenly Master. In that case, I will stay in Taiyi Road for a few more days."

In the next few days, Zheng Yi stayed in Taiyi to discuss Taoism with Master Zhao Xizheng.

Even though Master Zhao Xizheng looks immodest, he has amazing insights into the path of the Tao.

He is especially good at methods of self-cultivation.

Even the old Heavenly Master Zhao Xizheng even explained a little bit to Zheng Yi about his own practice of "Vigor and Purple Cloud Gong".

"Vibrant Zixia Gong" is a true cultivation technique.

Get up at Yinshi every day, take advantage of the moment when the sun rises in the east to absorb a trace of purple air from the morning sun into your body, surge with pure spiritual energy, and then refine it into magic power and store it in yourself.

Unfortunately, according to what Mr. Zhao Xizheng said, even the spiritual energy on Daizong Mountain is very thin now.

The purple energy he absorbs every day can only be refined into a small amount, which is better than nothing.

This is true in Daizong Mountain, let alone other places.

In the secular world, it is difficult to generate spiritual energy.

Not to mention that the most tacky capital city has almost no aura and few monks live there.

But even so, Zheng Yi watched Zhao Xizheng write three letters and handed them to Taiyi disciples and Jin Yiwei. In groups of five, they escorted the three letters to various places in Dayu.

These three letters represent the secluded places of the three monks!

In the past few days, Zheng Yi also asked a question.

Besides Zhao Xizheng, are there any other monks in Taiyi Dao?

"Other monks? Of course there are."

Zhao Xizheng shrugged and said: "How could it be that my "Vigor and Purple Cloud Gong" has been passed down? I have already found a suitable disciple in Taiyi Dao to pass it on."

As for who it was, Zheng Yi couldn't tell.

With no choice but to stay there for half a month, he went back home.

After the large army descended the Daizong Mountain, Zheng Yi met the Jin Yiwei who had been waiting anxiously for several days.

"See Your Majesty!"

The Jin Yiwei looked very nervous and immediately fell to his knees after seeing Zheng Yi.

"What's the matter?"

"Back to Your Majesty..."

The Jin Yiwei held his breath and said word by word: "King Yan, he was assassinated by an assassin and passed away!"

"What?!"

Zheng Yi was surprised and immediately said: "Go back to the palace as quickly as possible!"

"No!"

King Yan is dead?

Was it done by Chen Liancang and Xiao Guizi?

Doesn't that mean... King Yan really has the intention to rebel!

We must ask Chen Liancang and others about this matter!

……

The time is pushed back to one month ago.

Yancheng.

This is the place where King Yan lives, and it is also the residence of Youzhou in the north.

As the sky dawned, the gate of Yancheng opened, and seven figures blended into the crowd like fish and sneaked into Youzhou.

There was nothing wrong with the road guides in their hands, and the city gate officials who were on duty didn't care.

After the seven people entered the city, they quickly gathered at the Yuelai Inn in the north of the city.

"I have met Eunuch Gui and Master Ding in my humble position!"

Eunuch Gui, Xiao Guizi.

Master Ding is a member of the Jinyiwei family, named Ding Chang, a second-level warrior. He is an old acquaintance with Eunuch Gui, and he was specially transferred here for this mission.

"We don't want to say more than necessary. Just remember, after completing this mission, you will be members of our East Factory!"

"Glory, wealth, gold and jade, beautiful women, whatever you want, our family will give you what you want, do you understand?"

"No!"

"Those who hold humble positions must do their best!"

The four of them knelt down and immediately expressed their loyalty.

"Very well, Mr. Ding, I'll leave the rest to you."

Eunuch Gui patted Ding Chang on the shoulder, and Ding Chang straightened up immediately.

"Everyone, this mission is to investigate the rebellion of King Yan!"

As soon as the words fell, the expressions of the four people changed, but then they became ecstatic.

The feudal king rebelled!

This is a big case.

Once confirmed, their rewards will definitely be considerable.

Glory and wealth are within reach!

He immediately said excitedly: "Dingtou, you give your orders, brothers will listen to you!"

"Yes, yes, Dingtou, brothers believe in you!"

"What shall we do first?"

Ding Chang nodded with satisfaction. He did this to gain some favor in front of Eunuch Gui and to show his strength.

I heard that His Majesty is going to establish the East Factory, which has great power. If I have the chance...

"Cough cough cough..."

He coughed a few times and said immediately: "Dongzi, go to the grain stores and butcher shops in Yancheng and see if the prices of salt, grain and meat in Yancheng have increased."

"I know Ding Tou!"

"Xiaocheng, go to the blacksmith shop and check to see if the price of iron has increased."

"No problem!"

If King Yan really wants to rebel, he will definitely collect food, grass and weapons.

These items will definitely increase in price as they acquire them.

Just by checking these few places, you can find out from the side whether there is any movement of large amounts of materials under King Yan's command.

"Chen Feng. You are the most handsome among us. Go to the brothel and check~"

"Hey hey hey..."

The pretty boy named Chen Feng chuckled and said: "Don't worry, Dingtou, brother, I will definitely handle this matter beautifully~!"

"Zhang Chao, go check the troops in the city and report anything at any time!"

"Action!"

"No!"

Several people stood up, saluted Xiao Guizi one by one, and then walked out quickly.

After the others left, Xiao Guizi turned around and said respectfully: "Ancestor, this matter has been arranged. You see..."

In the darkness, Chen Liancang's figure slowly appeared, his eyes cold.

"Well done, these people are also capable people."

"Hehehehe...that's not the case. These people are carefully selected by villains, and they will be the backbone of Dongchang in the future."

"Yeah."

Chen Liancang nodded slowly and said: "Let them investigate clearly first, and leave the rest to our family."

"No!"

These few people were all capable members of the Jinyi Guards, and they quickly disguised themselves and sneaked into Yan City incognito.

They can easily find out the price of grain, salt, meat, iron, etc. in Yancheng.

In the past few days, a piece of news has also spread in Yancheng.

A wealthy man from Qianlefang, the largest brothel in Yancheng, spent a lot of money to buy the three top brothels of Qianlefang for three days, and sprinkled a thousand taels of silver, which made many people envious.

Three days later, several people returned to Yuelai Inn again, looking very excited.

Dongzi took the lead and said: "Dingtou, the two father-in-laws have found out."

"The price of grain in Yancheng was still 400 Wen per stone half a year ago. But then the price suddenly skyrocketed, from 700 to 800 Wen, and now it has risen to 1,500 Wen per stone, a full four times the amount!"

"The price of salt is even more like this. The official salt is 300 cents per pound, but not many people buy it."

"The price of private salt has risen to 800 cents per pound, and it is also the worst quality sea salt..."

Ding Chang nodded: "Xiaocheng, what about you?"

Xiaocheng also said: "Dingtou, no meat!"

"No meat...what does it mean?"

"I walked through seventy-one streets in Yancheng, and I didn't see a single meat seller!"

"Yesterday morning I went to the North Gate to squat and found that all the mountain people and hunters who came into the city to sell mountain products were blocked from the city. All the meat they hunted was bought by the Yancheng defenders."

“So much meat is consumed?”

Xiao Guizi was also surprised and asked quickly: "Where is the other information?"

Chen Feng took the lead and said: "Back to my father-in-law, I have been in Qianlefang these past few days and learned from several top names that they have received many foreign soldiers and generals in the past six months."

"I heard that there are also a group of big men who behave suspiciously. Lying on them is like wild dogs seeing meat. They have been in their pupae all night."

"One night..."

"Rogue!"

"They must be rioters! Only these mud-legged people who haven't seen women all day would visit brothels like this!"

"King Yan, actually colluded with the rebellious people?"

"Not necessarily, maybe it's to take advantage of the chaos!"

At this time, Zhang Chao also said: "Ding Tou, my two father-in-laws, I also found something here."

"Oh, what did you find?"

"Barracks!"

Zhang Chao said: "The villain dressed up as a collector of night incense and discovered that there were more than thirty military camps with at least 50,000 people in the valley thirty miles north of the city!"

"King Yan...is really planning to rebel!"

"This, this is huge information!"

"What should I do?"

"Dingtou?"

"Eunuch Gui?"

The four people's voices became urgent and their eyes were fiery.

"Eunuch Gui, this..."

Ding Tou also looked at Xiao Guizi with fear and excitement.

What I was excited about was that I discovered the major conspiracy of the feudal lord, but what I was afraid of was that once this matter was revealed, it would be a huge case!

Xiao Guizi's mouth was also a little dry. When she was about to say something, Chen Liancang stood up.

"You guys have checked enough. Pack up, bow, and leave the city. Wait for us at Laoya Ridge, fifteen miles south of the city."

"Ancestor, what are you..."

Chen Liancang said indifferently: "I will personally sneak into Prince Yan's Mansion to check, and you should leave quickly."

"I will go find you at noon tomorrow."

"If I haven't arrived at noon, you will return to the capital quickly, do you understand?"

"No!"

Several people left one after another, dressed up in disguise, and walked out of Yancheng.

But Chen Liancang took advantage of the darkness and sneaked into Prince Yan's Mansion!

Prince Yan's Mansion is located in the south of Yan City. It occupies a huge area, has clusters of palaces, and guards like rain.

But even so, Chen Liancang, who is a Xiantian realm warrior, cannot be stopped!

His figure wandered around Prince Yan's palace like a ghost, but no one noticed his figure.

"There are no Xiantian realm warriors in Prince Yan's palace."

"First-level warriors, one, two...five, six!"

"King Yan, you actually managed to win over six first-level warriors?"

"What a pity..."

He moved quickly and soon discovered the figure of King Yan, who was actually discussing with his staff the deployment of the army and contacting the rebellious people.

Chen Liancang was not impulsive, but sneaked in after midnight while King Yan was sleeping.

After verifying his true identity, he was killed with one blow!

In the entire Prince Yan's Mansion, no one knew about the assassination of Prince Yan tonight.

After doing all this, Chen Liancang walked out of the city. At dawn, he had already arrived at Lao Yaling where he had made an appointment with Xiao Guizi, Ding Chang and others.

"Ancestor!"

"Father-in-law?"

Seeing Chen Liancang appear, several people quickly walked out.

Chen Liancang nodded and said: "Nothing, I have obtained the evidence of King Yan's rebellion. Let's return to the capital."

"No!"

Several people turned around and saluted, but Xiao Guizi looked a little strange: "Old Ancestor, Your Majesty's order is not that after finding out King Yan's rebellion,..."

"Poof!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Chen Liancang's figure rushing towards Ding Chang and others like a ghost.

Ghost palms filled the sky, and they immediately found Ding Chang and others among them. They screamed several times and died one after another.

"Father, why!"

"I'll wait..."

"Run away..."

"Ah!"

After a few breaths, all five people were killed, leaving only Xiao Guizi, who was shaken all over.

"Old, ancestors, why did you kill them?"

"They are working for His Majesty..."

"The King of Yan conspired to rebel, but was assassinated by His Majesty's order. Once this matter spreads, it will be extremely detrimental to Your Majesty."

Chen Liancang said coldly: "For the sake of His Majesty, our family can only send them on their way."

"Then, then I..."

"Close your eyes, we will use some force and you won't feel the pain."

"No...!"

Xiao Guizi suddenly shouted: "I am loyal to your Majesty, and your Majesty will never kill me!"

"You are right, His Majesty did not order the killing of these people."

Chen Liancang said without hesitation: "It is our family's idea to kill you."

"For the sake of your loyalty to His Majesty, our family will take good care of your family. Go on your way with peace of mind."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Liancang floated up like a ghost.

"No..."

"Poof!"
