I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 336 Unexpected Accident (Subscription Request)
Zhang Chen smiled bitterly and patted the package: "I didn't get any good stuff, but I did get a lot of harmful things."

As Zhang Chen spoke, he unwrapped the package to reveal the delicate flowers. Even after several months, the golden wind flowers were still as delicate and gorgeous as ever.

"Jade Dew Flowers!" Xie Lingyun's breathing paused when he saw the bag of flowers, and his voice was full of shock.

"You're mistaken. This isn't the Jade Dew Flower, it's the Golden Wind Flower. Although they look the same on the outside, their effects are opposite. The Jade Dew can temporarily increase a person's strength, while this Golden Wind Flower can cause a person's strength to plummet by 30% to 50%. You'd better not get them confused, or you'll end up hurting yourself." Zhang Chen explained to Xie Lingyun.

He discovered that people in this world only knew about the Jade Dew Flower, but did not know the function of the Golden Wind Flower.

If you take advantage of this feature, you might be able to do something big.

When designing to kill someone, this is definitely an unexpected weapon.

When Xie Lingyun heard Zhang Chen's words, he showed a look of disbelief in his eyes: "How could such a thing exist in the world? It's incredible! Two flowers with different effects, but they look exactly the same. Is there anything more unbelievable in the world than this?"

Zhang Chen smiled, took out ten flowers from the pile and handed them to Xie Lingyun: "These ten flowers are for you, maybe they can save your life at a critical moment. But these flowers need to be kept in a jade box, and you need to prepare the jade box in advance when you go back."

Xie Lingyun smiled like a flower, and didn't bother to be polite with Zhang Chen: "In that case, I will accept these ten flowers."

Zhang Chenjiang looked at the more than 80 flowers still in the package, and there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes. It was not easy to store these more than 80 flowers. He had to buy at least 80 jade boxes, but how precious were jade articles? Especially jade boxes, which were even rarer.

"Sister, is your injury healed?" Zhang Chen did not bother about how to store the flowers, but looked at Xie Lingyun. After a few months, Xie Lingyun's movements were agile and she did not look injured at all.

"The Inspection Office has no shortage of various exotic elixirs." Xie Lingyun said.

Zhang Chen felt relieved after hearing this. The two talked for a while. Xie Lingyun ordered people to prepare wine and food. After the two of them ate and drank, the sky gradually darkened. Xie Lingyun ordered people to light candles: "Unfortunately, the passage to the spiritual world is getting smaller and smaller, and it will soon be closed."

Zhang Chen sat under the light and smiled: "Sister, why are you so sad? There is something I haven't told you. The first level of the spiritual world will soon be broken. At that time, all the items in the entire spiritual world will fall from the spiritual world to the mortal world. If the Inspection Office is well prepared and seizes the initiative in advance, it will definitely gain incredible benefits."

Xie Lingyun was shocked when he heard this: "The first level of the spiritual world will be broken? Why? How sure is this news?"

"Ten points!" Zhang Chen said with certainty: "As for why it was broken, it was actually because a shocking event occurred deep in the spiritual world, which caused the first level of the spiritual world to be broken."

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Xie Lingyun's eyes showed a hint of horror: "There are countless creations in the spiritual world. Once the world is broken and mysteriously falls into the mortal world, I don't know how many powerful people beyond our control will be created. The whole world will probably become even more chaotic."

Zhang Chen fell silent upon hearing this. This was something that could not be avoided.

The two talked for a while. Zhang Chen was worried about the divine whip that was refined in his own Bagua furnace, so he said goodbye and left with his package on his back.

It is now winter, the north wind is howling between heaven and earth, and the cold is overwhelming and freezing the world.

Zhang Chen changed into winter clothes from Xie Lingyun, put on a fox fur cloak, and walked in the cold wind, returning towards Huangli Temple.

"The next step is to steal points and practice my Mountain Moving Technique to perfection! Then I will find the next level of cultivation in the Huangli Temple, and then practice well with a low profile." Countless thoughts flashed through Zhang Chen's mind. He tightened his cloak to block the cold wind from his body, and began to think about how to deal with the golden wind flower.

It is simply unrealistic to find dozens of jade boxes.

As Zhang Chen walked in the cold wind, an idea came to his mind: "I have the art of freezing, and the power of the old osmanthus that is who knows how many tens of thousands of years old. If I use the power of the osmanthus to freeze it, I wonder if I can preserve the medicinal properties."

Thinking of this, Zhang Chen directly searched for an old forest deep in the mountains, then drew water vapor to freeze the Golden Wind Flower, and added the power of Old Osmanthus to the ice. Strangely enough, the power of Old Osmanthus was so mysterious that it actually froze the medicinal power of the Golden Wind Flower.

"It's done!" Zhang Chen was overjoyed when he saw this scene, but then he became worried about how to place the eighty golden wind flowers.

Bring it back to the Taoist temple?

That thing must not be brought back to the Taoist temple. There are countless old guys in the temple. If someone accidentally senses the aura of the Golden Wind Flower, it will be troublesome again.

"Then how should I hide it?" Zhang Chen began to ponder in his mind, and after thinking for a long time, he decided to hide it underground.

Only by hiding it underground can it be difficult to be discovered.

Zhang Chen found a big mountain, marked it, and then took eighty golden wind flowers and transformed himself into a stream of water, diving into the depths of the underground and hiding.

Zhang Chen's cultivation is limited now. Whether he turns into a stream of water or a vampire bat, he cannot carry anything weighing more than 30 kilograms. Therefore, Zhang Chen could only trek hard in the first level of the spiritual world.

Zhang Chen penetrated all the way to a thousand meters underground and found a cave. He then divided the Golden Wind Flowers into several pieces and continuously moved them into the underground cave, where they were collected by Zhang Chen.

After Zhang Chen collected the Golden Wind Flower, he turned into mist and disappeared into the night. When he reappeared, he was already inside the Huangli Temple.

It was now late at night, and the little kid was sitting cross-legged in front of the candlelight in meditation. When Zhang Chen came back, the little kid's soul was no longer in his body, and no one knew where it had gone.

Zhang Chen looked at the little bean's body, feeling somewhat surprised: "How strange! Little bean can actually leave his body? Can he avoid the suppression of the palace?"

Zhang Chen was somewhat happy, but then he shook his head secretly: "This girl doesn't even know how to find someone to help protect the Dharma. If someone destroys her body when she leaves her body, it will be a big trouble."

Zhang Chen was busy in the yard, stewing meat and cooking. In the middle of the night, a blurry shadow came from outside the Taoist temple. When he saw Zhang Chen, he looked happy: "Zhang Chen, you finally came back!"

The soul of Xiao Douding walked in from outside the yard. When he saw Zhang Chen, he was overjoyed, and his eyes were full of joy. Hearing Xiao Douding's shouting, Zhang Chen looked at the soul of Xiao Douding rushing towards him, and quickly suppressed the golden light in his body, allowing the soul of Xiao Douding to ride on his neck intimately.

"Senior sister, you have reached such a high level of cultivation that you can even travel out of your body at night. This is truly amazing. Have you solved the problem of the palace?" Zhang Chen asked with a smile.

He felt a little puzzled. According to the power contained in the palace at that time, the palace should be extremely heavy. According to his estimation, the little kid would have to enter the realm of Yang God before he could break through the pressure of the palace and leave his body.

There was a hint of curiosity in Zhang Chen's eyes. Little Douding's current situation was quite different from what he had secretly deduced before.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, the little kid smiled and said, "I don't know where a post appeared from. It was shining with golden light and actually sealed the power of the palace. So my soul was no longer blocked and ran out directly."

Zhang Chen was surprised when he heard this. Could it be that his six-character mantra sticker had such power?

Only half a year has passed, and the Six-Character Mantra has undergone such changes?

Zhang Chen pushed the little boy's soul and said, "Go back quickly. I'll check it for you."

The little boy happily returned to his body, then opened his eyes and looked at Zhang Chen: "Junior brother, come and check if there is anything wrong with me."

There was some worry in her eyes, but she hid it very deeply, not wanting Zhang Chen to see that she was worried about her.

Zhang Chen walked forward and placed a finger on the little boy's forehead, sensing the changes in his body and soul, especially focusing on the changes in his own six-character mantra sticker. He couldn't help but look surprised:

"The six-character mantra sticker has changed from being tangible to being intangible. The gold substance inside it has been refined away, leaving only the immortal nature. Then the immortal nature absorbed the incense and faith, and changed from being intangible to being tangible. It has changed from a mundane object to a divine object. In this process, it absorbed the fortune of the entire palace, and has sucked the palace down. The palace has become illusory and shrunk. No wonder it can no longer suppress the little bean's soul."

Zhang Chen was surprised at the changes of the Six-Character Mantra Sticker. This Six-Character Mantra Sticker was so powerful that it accepted all the power of faith. It was like a giant whale swallowing the boundless ocean. No matter how much faith and incense you had, it was not enough for it to absorb in one gulp.

Zhang Chen sensed the Six-Character Mantra sticker and saw that it had become completely solid, but the six-character mantra on it was still blurry and required a large amount of faith power to fill it.

"Interesting." Zhang Chen muttered to himself.

Zhang Chen retracted his hand, and then faced the little kid's expectant eyes with a smile on his face: "The trouble has been basically solved, and you don't have to worry about it for the time being. But you still need to practice well in the future, and try to turn the tables and refine that palace."

"Really?" The smile on Little Bean's face widened.

Zhang Chen rubbed the little boy's head and said, "Of course it's true, but you have to be low-key. In the future, you are not allowed to leave your body without my permission. If the old guys in the Taoist temple find out, it will be bad if something unexpected happens."

The little bean nodded vigorously after hearing this, stood up and threw himself into Zhang Chen's arms, hugged Zhang Chen's neck and kissed him hard: "Zhang Chen, thank you!"

"Basic exercises! You're welcome!" Zhang Chen said with a smile.

As they were talking, the beef had already been stewed, and Zhang Chen brought the little kid to eat the beef.

However, before they finished eating the beef, they saw a figure walking in from outside the yard. Before the person arrived, his voice was heard in the cold wind: "The old Taoist priest is really lucky. He can eat stewed beef in this icy and snowy weather. He is really lucky."

Zhang Chen glanced at the old Taoist priest and his pupils shrank involuntarily. The person who came was actually Wu Changming, the great monk of Huangli Temple.

After seeing Wu Changming, Zhang Chen's heart was filled with resentment. He thought about how the old Taoist priest had promised him that as long as he won the first place in the competition, he would become a star god. But who knew that after the competition, the old Taoist priest had simply disappeared?

Wu Changming was not polite. He sat directly in front of the big pot, picked up his bowl and chopsticks and showed off the beef. While eating, he called Zhang Chen and Xiao Douding to sit down: "Why are you standing there like idiots? Come and eat quickly. This beef is stewed so soft and fragrant, it is really a rare and top-notch product. If you stand there like idiots again, don't blame me if I eat all the beef."

Upon hearing this, the little kid picked up his chopsticks and joined the fight without saying a word. However, Zhang Chen did not move his chopsticks. He just sat opposite Wu Changming, staring at Wu Changming with his eyes fixed.

Wu Changming was facing Zhang Chen's gaze and could not eat the beef. He could only helplessly say, "I heard about the Taoist temple competition before, but I was transferred away by that bastard Gu Mingyue at that time, so when I found out about everything later, it was too late! I don't want Zhang Xiaohua to get the position of Star God any more than you do, but there is no way. The matter is done, and the Great Sage Master has spoken, and there is nothing I can do."

Zhang Chen felt relieved when he heard this, knowing that Wu Changming had not betrayed him. He then picked up the wine beside him and poured a bowl for Wu Changming: "Master, please drink. I have wronged you."

Wu Changming shook his head: "You can't be blamed for this. It's all my fault. I fell into Gu Mingyue's trap."

Wu Changming was so angry that he gnashed his teeth, the Northland was his territory, but now Gu Mingyue had to get involved, especially since the prince of Pingbian Palace had become Gu Mingyue's subordinate. Now the whole Northland was under the jurisdiction of Pingbian Palace. Although the Taoist temple in the Northland was still in his hands in name, Gu Mingyue had been secretly using the influence of Pingbian Palace to continuously encroach on his rights. It was feared that it would not be long before the Northland would change hands.

Wu Changming was angry, but there was nothing he could do.

What can he do?
If it was just Gu Mingyue who was against me, it wouldn't be a big deal, but now there's the Pingbian Palace getting involved. Even if I report this to the Great Sage Master, and the Great Sage Master orders Gu Mingyue to return the land to me, can I really control the Northern Taoist Temple?

The laws of the Beidi Pingbian Palace are greater than the laws of the imperial court and the rules of the Huangtian Dao.

Wu Changming suffered a loss and was extremely angry.

Of course, if there were other heirs in the Prince Pingbian's Mansion, and he supported other little princes, he might still have hope of taking back power. But Prince Pingbian has only this one child, so what can he do?
He could do nothing but stare.

Wu Changming felt bitter, but he said nothing.

Zhang Chen looked at Wu Changming with a thoughtful expression. He probably understood the situation of this poor guy Wu Changming.
