I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 385: Life and Death Mark
Today's Wuzhuang Temple is already considered to be on the path to becoming an earthly immortal.

The Qi training technique of Wuzhuang Temple was passed down by an immortal, who came from the 33rd heaven of the spiritual world...

Zhang Chen seemed to have grasped a clue. All of this pointed to the Thirty-Third Heaven. Even Peacock called the Thirty-Third Heaven the Immortal Realm. So that must be the origin of Qigong practitioners.

Could it be that after killing all the gods, he created a method of practicing Qi and entered the Thirty-Three Heavens to practice?
Zhang Chen didn't quite believe that the martial arts he taught Di had such a supernatural power. If Di really understood the art of Qi training, mastered the method of Qi training, and absorbed the power of thousands of gods in one body, it would be understandable that he had such power.

Just as Zhang Chen was thinking, he heard that Kong Que wanted to use his own innate five elements to restore the innate five elements. He couldn't help but be alert: "Is this old guy trying to cheat? Is he throwing meat buns at a dog and there is no return?"

"If you can lend me the origin of the five elements, I can quickly recover my strength. Then I can kill the ancestor of immortality and let you become a true disciple of the Taoist temple. It will not be difficult to become an immortal. What do you think?" Xiantian Peacock's words were full of temptation at this time. He stared at Zhang Chen with a pair of eyes with utmost sincerity.

Zhang Chen hesitated for a moment before agreeing to the other party's request, because his golden finger had already sensed it. As the Soul-Snatching Skill was activated, the ability to mark began to appear:
[A markable target has been found. Do you want to mark it? ]

Zhang Chen looked at the page with a look of joy, but there was a hint of weirdness in his eyes. Since he could mark the other party and hook their soul, was he still afraid that they would default on their promise?

If the other party dares to deny his debt, he will make him know why the flowers are so red.

Zhang Chen was indeed very envious of this technique of reversing yin and yang. If he could master this magical power, he would have many more means to fight against his enemies in the future.

"Okay, I agree to your conditions, and this jade plate belongs to me." Zhang Chen said with a smile.

After saying that, Zhang Chen opened his mouth, and then he saw the space under Zhang Chen's tongue snake open, and he swallowed the jade plate directly in one gulp.

Even among the thirty-six celestial beings, Reversing Yin and Yang could definitely be ranked in the top three. Zhang Chen felt that he had made a big profit.

"Boy, now that you have achieved your wish, how are you going to rescue me?" Xiantian Peacock said, looking at Zhang Chen with burning eyes.

Zhang Chen smiled when he heard this: "It's quite simple."

The next moment, the golden finger's soul-stealing skill was activated directly. Before the innate peacock could come to his senses, he felt that there was an inexplicable thing in the depths of his true spirit.

"What the hell, what did you do to me?" The innate peacock sensed something was wrong at the first moment, and glared at Zhang Chen with a pair of eyes. At the same time, he wanted to use his magical powers to expel the mark, but the mark was firmly engraved in his true spirit, completely merging with his true spirit, and he couldn't pull it out at all.

"Didn't I say I would rescue you?" Zhang Chen said with a smile, "Please be patient, I will get you out later."

"Did I mean that you rescued me? What about the mark you left in my true soul? It's so inexplicable and it suddenly appeared." The Innate Peacock was a little panicked.

When the Great Freedom Demon in Zhang Chen's heart heard the words of the Innate Peacock, he was immediately shocked and remembered the mark in his own true spirit origin. He then gloated: "This bald chicken is finished! This mark is very evil. Even I, the ancestor, can't get rid of it. He is even more trapped in it."

At this time, the eyes of Mahadeva were full of sympathy. It felt so good to find that others were unlucky with him.

Xiantian Peacock sensed something was wrong, but he could do nothing about it. Zhang Chen had gotten the upper hand now, so he was too lazy to continue to care about Xiantian Peacock. The other party's soul had been marked by him, so what other means could he use? What kind of trouble could he cause?
Then he saw the magic power in Zhang Chen's body flowing and began to recover rapidly. He pinched his hands to control the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth to sense the situation outside. After a moment, Zhang Chen knew that Xu Erniu and the master had both left.

Zhang Chen looked at the innate peacock, and activated the soul-stealing skill in his mind. Then, the innate peacock was pulled out of the cage and appeared in front of Zhang Chen.

If he went to the outside world, he would not be able to break the shield of the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth to snatch the three souls and seven spirits of the innate peacock, because if the opponent's soul was suppressed, his soul-snatching skills would be powerless.

This place is inside the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth. To Zhang Chen, who has mastered the manipulation techniques of the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, the cage is almost non-existent.

It seemed that Zhang Chen directly drew the soul of the innate peacock out of the cage, but in fact, Zhang Chen had secretly practiced the mantra in advance to reduce the suppressive and restraining power of the cage.

“Since you want to borrow the innate five elements essence, just enter my five-colored divine light and rest. Once you are outside, I will help you to be reborn.” Zhang Chen said to the innate peacock with five-colored light flowing behind him.

However, Xiantian Peacock was not happy at this time. He glared at Zhang Chen with a pair of eyes and said, "Boy, you better explain the mark in my soul first, otherwise I will never let you go."

"Didn't I cast that mark to pull the ancestor out of the cage? Now that he's been pulled out, why are you still worried about it?" Zhang Chen said.

"Since you have pulled me out, remove the mark immediately." Xiantian Peacock said with a gloomy face.

"That mark technique was something I discovered by accident. I only know how to apply a mark. As for how to remove a mark, I have never learned it." Zhang Chen's face was full of apologies. "Why should you care so much, ancestor? It's just a mark anyway. What effect can it have on you, ancestor?"

"Nonsense, how come it has no effect? ​​This method is imprinted in my soul, and there will definitely be unknown crises and controls. You'd better remove it quickly, otherwise I, your ancestor, will never let you go." The Innate Peacock glared at Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen smiled and changed the subject. Five-colored divine light flashed behind him. "Old Ancestor, are you still willing to lend me the Five Elements Origin? If you don't, I'm leaving. You will be trapped in this Guixu place."

Seeing that Zhang Chen was about to act like a rogue, Xiantian Peacock was so angry that his breathing became a little faster. Knowing that he was now dependent on others and needed help, he could only give up on this issue:
"What do you mean by borrowing the innate five elements? The innate five elements in you are originally mine!"

As he spoke, he angrily rushed into the five-colored divine light behind Zhang Chen and placed his trust in the five feathers. Then Zhang Chen directly put away the five-colored divine light: "Old Ancestor, what you said is wrong. I picked up these five feathers from the ground. What does it have to do with you? You said he is yours. Call him and see if he agrees to you?"

His own five-color divine light was included in the Gold Finger page and has become a skill on the Gold Finger page. It is simply a pipe dream for Peacock to take it back, unless the opponent is stronger than his Gold Finger. If the opponent is stronger than his Gold Finger, then what is the point of mixing? Just kneel down and surrender and wait for the other party to accept it.

The innate peacock over there entered his own five feathers, secretly delighted in his heart: "Good boy, you are still young, you have to eat my foot washing water. My ability is not something you can measure. These five feathers are transformed from my origin, and they are one with me. As long as my spirit and energy fall into them, even if this treasure has been refined by you, it will be taken back by me in a thought."

The Xiantian Peacock was overjoyed and immediately tried to sense the five feathers, but the next moment, the Xiantian Peacock's face changed color:

"What the hell is this? These five feathers are completely disconnected from me. They don't have any traces of my spirit at all. How could this be? How could this be?"

To him, these five feathers are equivalent to a part of his soul. As long as he touches them, he can take them back directly. But now someone tells him that his soul no longer belongs to him. How is this possible?

"What the hell is going on?" Xiantian Peacock felt like the sky was falling.

Taking back these five innate feathers would save him at least a billion years of cultivation, allowing him to recover to his peak state within a thousand years. But what happened now? His origin no longer belonged to him. Is there anything more outrageous than this in the world?
After Zhang Chen sensed that there was no one outside the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, he flashed and flew out of the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth and landed on the ground.

There is no such thing as divine thoughts in this world. There are only two ways to explore them. One is to open your third eye, and the other is to practice the ability to see through things from a distance.

Zhang Chen turned his head to look at the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth, greed in his heart growing like weeds. He took this opportunity to steal the Treasure Mirror of Heaven and Earth and put it into the devouring space, where no one would notice it.

But thinking about the fact that the ancestor of longevity offered sacrifices to refine the Grass Rejuvenating Pill in order to use the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror to survive the catastrophe, if he stole the Heaven and Earth Treasure Mirror, what would happen to Xu Erniu? The Grass Rejuvenating Pill would be useless, would Xu Erniu be in danger?

Thinking of this, Zhang Chen turned into a drop of water and slipped out from the crack of the door, all the way to the room of the little fat boy Zou Wenlong, revealing his home.

The water control technique allows one to transform oneself into a stream of water. As long as the water is not directly seen by someone with higher cultivation than oneself, no one will be able to see through one's transformation.

"The next step is to find a body for the Innate Peacock and help it to be reborn. But I don't know who in this Taoist temple is suitable to possess the body of the Innate Peacock." Zhang Chen was thinking about the next plan in his mind. At this time, a bell suddenly rang. The bell rang thirty-six times in a row. Zhang Chen was surprised. He had read all the books in the Taoist temple's library. Of course, he knew what the thirty-six bell rings represented. It represented that the founder was summoning all the disciples in the academy to gather together.

Zhang Chen hurriedly picked up the mop and walked out of Zou Wenlong's room, then stood in the corridor to wipe his hands and quickly rushed to the front yard.

At this time, powerful auras were constantly flowing in Qingcheng Mountain. Disciples of the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth levels flew out from the depths of Qingcheng Mountain. Even though the opponents tried their best to restrain their aura, Zhang Chen was still frightened by the sight.

"Those are the four great disciples of Wuzhuang Temple. They have all practiced for countless years and have reached the twelfth level. There are also more than a dozen remaining disciples at the tenth and eleventh levels." Xu Erniu came over from a distance and saw Zhang Chen staring at the figures in the sky in a trance, so she explained.

"Four great disciples?" Zhang Chen asked curiously.

"They are the four powerful monks who have been practicing beside the founder since he attained enlightenment. Now their cultivation has reached the twelfth level, but they have not yet entered the realm of 'fruit'. The eldest brother is called Bailu. The second brother is called Qingming. The third brother is called Qingsong. The fourth brother is called Hongshi. These four brothers are the core of Wuzhuang Temple and the backbone of Wuzhuang Temple. They usually practice in the depths of Qingcheng Mountain and comprehend higher realms. I don't know why they came out today." Xu Erniu's voice was full of curiosity.

Zhang Chen glanced at Xu Erniu. At this time, he could display the golden light of the righteous god. When his golden light of the righteous god swept over Xu Erniu, he saw that Xu Erniu's body was covered with clear air, and there was a fist-sized green airflow rotating in her dantian area, like a bead, constantly absorbing some kind of mysterious breath between heaven and earth.

"Xu Erniu has indeed been plotted against. I just don't know if there is a way to reverse the situation so that Xu Erniu can turn around and seize the fortune of the Grandmaster of Longevity." Zhang Chen said to himself.

He had a thousand words in his heart, but he didn't know how to start with Xu Erniu. Why do you think that was?
Could he tell Xu Erniu that the Immortal Ancestor was actually her biological father? Moreover, his biological father actually wanted to refine him into a human ginseng fruit and sacrifice him, how could he dare to tell him?
If I told this, Xu Erniu would definitely not believe it.

No one knew better than him how much Xu Erniu was looking forward to seeing her father. She had carried the little wooden sword for thousands of miles.

"Let's go. The master is calling all the disciples to gather together. We can't delay, or we will be punished by the master." Xu Erniu took Zhang Chen's hand and ran quickly to the front yard: "I was afraid that you didn't know the meaning of the bell ringing thirty-six times, so I came to remind you, so as not to be punished by your master."

Zhang Chen was touched, and he and Xu Erniu quickly ran to the front yard. Zhang Chen said calmly, "I say, have you seen your father?"

"Not yet. My father encountered a bottleneck in his practice. It is not easy to break through it." Xu Erniu said.

Zhang Chen's eyes turned when he heard this: "There is something I don't know whether I should tell you."

"What's the matter? Is there anything we can't talk about?" Xu Erniu turned her head and looked at Zhang Chen in surprise.

"I have asked around in the Taoist temple several times before, but I have never heard of your father's name." Zhang Chen tried to probe, "Could you be mistaken? Your father is not in Qingcheng Mountain at all. Or has your father encountered some kind of misfortune in Qingcheng Mountain?"

Xu Erniu smiled when she heard this: "I was wondering what it was, but you don't know. My father was a cultivator hundreds of years ago. How could the disciples today know my father's name?"

Zhang Chen scratched his head when he heard this. He had a thousand words to say, but they were all stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter a single word.

What can he do?
That damned thief Changsheng had actually thought of a way out, and everything was woven perfectly. Even if Zhang Chen wanted to find a flaw to warn Xu Erniu, he couldn't find a chance.

"Forget it, let me think about this matter carefully. I will personally find a way to deal with the Patriarch of Immortality. It is better not to let Xu Erniu know about this. This girl is still a child after all, and her character is much worse than that of an adult. It would be bad if the thief of Immortality accidentally sees something." Zhang Chen said to himself.

I told Xu Erniu the truth, and it was up to her to believe it or not. If Xu Erniu believed it, could she keep it secret with her mentality?
If the Immortal Thief finds out something, we will all be in danger and will most likely be wiped out by the Immortal Thief.
