I picked up skill fragments in the demon world

#422 - Back to reality

Chapter 419: Return to Reality

Zhang Chen had never seen such a timid Great自在Heavenly Demon!

This old codger usually acted like he feared the world wouldn't be chaotic enough, but now he was as meek as a quail. It was truly the first time Zhang Chen had seen him like this.

"It's a pity that the purple lightning doesn't drop skill points. Otherwise, if I could pick up the Violet Firmament Divine Lightning, wouldn't I be invincible in the future?" Zhang Chen secretly set his sights on the Violet Firmament Divine Lightning, but unfortunately, the Violet Firmament Divine Lightning didn't belong to the mysterious category, so there wouldn't be any skill drops.

At this moment, lightning flashed between heaven and earth, and overwhelming divine lightning vibrated down, pressing down towards the cauldron. Countless sparks burst out, and Zhang Chen watched helplessly as his physical body continuously disappeared. The terrifying lightning vibrated his eardrums, causing them to rumble.

He seemed to faintly hear Xu Erniu's cries in his ears, and then Zhang Chen completely lost consciousness in the rumble.

Inside the Taoist temple, in the bedroom, the fire in the stove had already begun to dim.

"Boom!"

Zhang Chen suddenly flipped over and sat up, then stared blankly at the already dim bonfire. Then, he raised his hand to look at his intact body, a look of surprise on his face: "Have I returned from the first heaven of the spiritual world?"

Zhang Chen felt the mana in his body circulating smoothly, and the Yin-Yang millstone quietly surrounded the depths of his spiritual consciousness.

"Interesting!" Zhang Chen breathed, and the mana in his body circulated. The next moment, his figure disappeared in the room, and when he reappeared, he was already in the courtyard.

"The Five Elements Escape Technique can not only be used in the spiritual world, but also in the material world. In this way, it will be much more secretive if I want to plot something in the future. There are not so many experts in the material world, and I am not afraid of being detected." Zhang Chen was in a great mood at this time.

This time, his trip to the spiritual world was a great harvest. The only thing that made him a little worried was what happened to Xu Erniu and Xiu Liu, as well as the Innate Peacock.

Zhang Chen felt very tired, his spirit was exhausted, and a heavy feeling that was difficult to describe welled up in his heart, as if he hadn't closed his eyes for days and nights.

"Never mind, I'll sleep first!" After Zhang Chen finished speaking, he lay down on the recliner, pulled down his cloak, and nestled in front of the stove to sleep quietly.

But after closing his eyes and squinting for a while, Zhang Chen suddenly opened his eyes, opened his mouth, and then spat out an earthy yellow mirror from the Bashe space.

"The Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth has been brought back, that's good! That's good! Otherwise, if the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth fell into the hands of the Innate Peacock, I would have suffered a great loss." Zhang Chen said to himself.

Zhang Chen took the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth and looked at it for a while. After warming it with mana, he swallowed it back into the Bashe space.

At this time, a continuous stream of Ascension Pool energy was transformed from the Feng Shui Great Array and poured into the Devouring Space, filling the gaps in Zhang Chen's Devouring Space again, giving Zhang Chen the opportunity to hold more things.

For Zhang Chen, the biggest gains from this trip to the Primordial Land were the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, the Yin-Yang Millstone, and the Five Elements Escape Technique.

As for the rest, there was not much gain for Zhang Chen.

Or rather, the countless books in the Wuzhuang Temple greatly increased Zhang Chen's knowledge, giving Zhang Chen a few goals for future cultivation.

"The Thirty-Three Heavens of the Spiritual World are the origin of the Immortal Dao, and the corpses of immortals were dug out from the Thirty-Three Heavens, so I must go to the Thirty-Three Heavens in the future." Zhang Chen said to himself.

With his distracting thoughts collected, Zhang Chen gradually fell into a deep sleep, until the next day, the north wind broke the big tree outside the house, and the sound of it falling woke Zhang Chen up. Then, Zhang Chen took a breath, pulled open his cloak, looked at the flames in the stove, slowly picked up firewood and added it in, until the firewood gradually burned, Zhang Chen began to prepare his breakfast.

Cultivating immortals also requires eating!

For breakfast, Zhang Chen ate stewed potatoes with beef. He ate with a mouth full of oil, then tidied up the courtyard, and then returned to his house and began to refine his treasures.

Zhang Chen was very busy. He needed to refine the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, and he also needed to nurture the Heaven and Earth Millstone.

The Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth was extremely difficult to refine. Without the supply of Patriarch Longevity's huge mana, Zhang Chen could only rely on the effort of grinding ink with water, bit by bit to hone the restrictions.

He also had to comprehend the Great Divine Power of Reversing Yin and Yang, and he also had to study the formula for refining the Ascension Pool. The whole person was directly busy.

At noon, Zhang Chen put on his cloak and came to the courtyard, his eyes looking at the distant mountains where the Ascension Pool fell, and a look of eagerness appeared in his eyes.

But after thinking for a long time, he still didn't act rashly: "That old mud loach is in harmony with the earth veins of the Northern Land, my Earth Escape Technique must not be able to hide from him."

Now Zhang Chen was extremely afraid of the old mud loach. If he hadn't seen the Heavenly Punishment before, Zhang Chen would have been fearless because of his ignorance. Naturally, he would have had as much courage as he had, and he would have just rushed up, but now Zhang Chen didn't want to have anything to do with the dragon vein at all, after all, that Heavenly Punishment was not a joke.

He was now a little regretful that he had used blood to pollute the dragon vein's Qi in the first place. This method was too risky. If he was not careful and implicated himself, he would be in big trouble if the Heavenly Punishment descended.

"That old mud loach is using the power of the Northern Land's earth veins to transform into a dragon. Is he not afraid of the Heavenly Punishment? Or is there some mysterious way to avoid the Heavenly Punishment?" A hint of curiosity appeared in Zhang Chen's eyes.

After thinking for a long time without getting any answers, Zhang Chen returned to the house and continued to ponder his supernatural powers. Now that he couldn't improve his Qi training realm, he could only ponder the formula for reversing Yin and Yang and refining the Ascension Pool.

In the evening, Zhang Chen took out the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth and began to refine it, but soon Zhang Chen noticed the problem. Looking at the opened Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, he couldn't help but be stunned by the figure reflected on the mirror surface.

He saw that in the mirror, a few strands of white hair had grown on his temples.

"My lifespan is running out! I must find the Longevity Tree Coffin to continue my life!" Zhang Chen closed the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, and then secretly warned himself.

As for whether he could find the Longevity Tree Coffin, he was not worried. After he recovered for a few days, he would use the huge energy of the Ascension Pool to refine the second restriction of the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth. At that time, he would be able to trace the source and search for all kinds of mysterious Qi in the Northern Land.

"However, the Longevity Tree Coffin is guarded by that Grand Eunuch, even if I find the Longevity Tree Coffin, I'm afraid it won't be easy to seize it." Zhang Chen said to himself.

Zhang Chen swallowed the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth back into the Bashe space, added firewood, closed his eyes and pondered the matter of various formulas.

But after pondering for a while, Zhang Chen stopped. He suddenly missed Xiao Dou Ding. Xiao Dou Ding and Xu Erniu were extremely similar, and even their experiences were very similar.

"The Yellow Heaven Dao must have some plans for Xiao Dou Ding. No matter what layout the Yellow Heaven Dao has, as long as they dare to reach out their dog paws, I will cut off your paws." A hint of murderous intent appeared in Zhang Chen's eyes.

As for going to see Xiao Dou Ding, there was no need to rush. He had spent nearly twenty years in the spiritual world, but for the people of the material world, not much time had passed.

"The Yellow Heaven Dao is also a trouble! I still need to prepare early." Zhang Chen thought of the Grand Eunuch. If he could rely on the imperial court and use the power of the imperial court to attack the Yellow Heaven Dao, he could save himself a lot of effort.

Nothing happened overnight

The next day, Zhang Chen continued to practice hard, living a monotonous life.

The third day

The fourth day

......

Until eight more days had passed, Mr. Wu Liu came to visit again.

Outside the gate of the Taoist temple, Mr. Wu Liu looked at the closed gate and asked the strongman beside him: "Has that kid gone out these days?"

"Reporting to Mr., that kid is cultivating hard in the Taoist temple and has not made any unusual movements." The strongman said respectfully.

Mr. Wu Liu touched his chin and stood outside the door, wondering what he was thinking. After a while, he ordered: "Knock on the door!"

The sound of knocking on the door rang out in the empty night. The door opened, and Zhang Chen appeared in front of Mr. Wu Liu with a lazy expression: "So it's you who came, what are you knocking on so early in the morning, it's really annoying!"

"Isn't it because I'm thinking of sending you supplies? I'm afraid you'll be starved." Mr. Wu Liu didn't care about Zhang Chen's rudeness, but carefully looked at Zhang Chen's figure, a look of incomprehension in his eyes. According to his reasoning, Zhang Chen should be mentally weak at this time, getting worse day by day, how could this kid look so radiant now? He didn't look like he was suffering from the Feng Shui Great Array at all?

Mr. Wu Liu's eyes were full of incomprehension, but he didn't show it, but clapped his hands and asked the dozen or so guards behind him to carry all kinds of supplies and place them in front of the gate, allowing Zhang Chen to carry them in himself.

Seeing Zhang Chen finish carrying the supplies, Mr. Wu Liu drew a big cake: "You should practice hard here, when you leave the customs, the Prince will not forget you."

"You old fart are talking too much." Zhang Chen glanced at Mr. Wu Liu in a nonchalant manner, turned around and closed the door tightly with a 'bang', too lazy to pay attention to this old guy anymore.

Mr. Wu Liu was not angry at Zhang Chen's rudeness, but looked at the closed door in front of him and remained silent. After a long time, he turned his head and said to the guards beside him: "Have you noticed that this kid seems to be a little different?"

"It is a little different." A guard said: "The person is still the same person, but I can't say what's different."

"In the past, this kid was always cautious, with a hint of restraint and fear when facing the Prince's Mansion, but he was never as presumptuous as he is today." Mr. Wu Liu pondered:

"It's only been a few days, how has this kid's energy changed so much? I can't feel any restraint from him at all now, it's really strange! Moreover, he has been ravaged by the power of the Feng Shui Great Array, even if he's not mentally weak, he should at least have some abnormalities, right? Why does he look so full of energy, without any signs of being persecuted?"

A trace of suspicion arose in Mr. Wu Liu's mind at this time: "Could it be that something is wrong with the Feng Shui Great Array?"
