Chapter 205: Fading from the Ordinary
Xiao Ruoling's eyes flickered and she looked at him in confusion.

These three strains of Tongtian grass cannot be taken orally because they are harmful, but they are magical herbs from a secret place and are still valuable after all.

She planned to take it to Yaoyue Palace and exchange it with other Yaoyue Palace disciples for some treasures or elixirs.

Chu Zhiyuan took out a Tongtian grass and closed his eyes.

Visualize the heavenly talisman.

Everything went dark and blurry before my eyes, and then it turned into Tongtiancao.

……

A cup of tea passed, Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes and did not move, but Xiao Ruoling was not worried.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Chu Zhiyuan was still motionless with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep, and his breathing was a little rapid.

Two quarters of an hour passed and he was still as still as if asleep.

Xiao Ruoling couldn't sit still anymore.

Half an hour passed.

Xiao Ruoling stared at him closely, anxiety flashing in her eyes. As time passed, her anxiety became more and more severe.

If Chu Zhiyuan's breathing had not been sometimes rapid and sometimes slow, she would have been unable to resist reaching out to investigate.

Chu Zhiyuan suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes flashed like lightning, suddenly lighting up the house.

Only then did she realize that the sun had set without her noticing, and the houseboat was now dark.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled.

"how?"

"Very good." Chu Zhiyuan looked at the Tongtian grass in his hand and smiled with satisfaction: "Very good."

Xiao Ruoling thought he was strange today and looked at him curiously.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "The growth environment of Tongtian grass is special. It needs to grow in the yin in the yang and the yang in the yin."

“Yin within the Yang, Yang within the Yin?”

“The yin in the yang is that you cannot be exposed to the sun during the day, and the yang in the yin is that you can be exposed to the moonlight at night.”

"Isn't it a shady place?"

"How can the moonlight shine in the shady place?"

"Where is that?"

"During the day, there is something to block the sun for it, and at night, this thing shrinks back and does not block the moonlight."

"Flowers?"

"Ordinary flowers won't work. The flower needs to be big enough. Once it sees the sun, it will die."

"...It's really weird." Xiao Ruoling nodded slowly, then asked curiously: "How do you know this?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled but said nothing.

Xiao Ruoling rolled his eyes at him and said, "Okay, I'll look for it."

Chu Zhiyuan said: "In addition to swordsmanship, you also need to improve your Qinggong... Yaoyue Palace's Qinggong is unique, right?"

Through the three stalks of Tongtian grass, he saw some scenes of the secret place and gained a preliminary understanding of the secret place of Yaoyue Palace.

These three basils are located in different locations, one is on the top of a mountain, one is halfway up the mountain, and the other is by the river.

Through these three stalks of grass, he could see everything within a hundred meters of each stalk.

The peach tree can only see within a radius of twenty meters, the green bamboo can see within a radius of ten meters, and the tongtian grass can see within a radius of one hundred meters.

The size of the range depends on each person's aura.

He speculated that it might also be related to the range of spiritual energy absorbed by each person.

Through these three stalks of grass, he discovered that the secret place of Yaoyue Palace was full of dangers.

Any plant can be poisonous, any animal can be dangerous.

It is obviously just a small rabbit, but it can bite a stone into pieces in one bite and eat iron and stone.

It was obviously a little squirrel, but it jumped ten meters, picked up a flying bird, put it into its mouth, and chewed it into its stomach in two or three bites.

It was obviously a beautiful little fish, but it leaped out of the water and could poison and kill a giant bear with just one bite.

The danger level of animals in the secret place is not related to their weight. Animals like giant bears are dangerous because they are as fast as lightning and have great strength. Small animals are also dangerous.

……

"Master taught me the Flower-Moon Shadow Step."

"A footwork that matches the sword technique?"

"Yes, this is also a set of top-notch Qinggong. If you can master it, it will be even more powerful when used in conjunction with swordsmanship."

"Let's try it."

Xiao Ruoling's graceful body flashed, the door curtain of the pleasure boat swayed, and she disappeared without a trace.

Chu Zhiyuan followed her out of the pleasure boat and saw her moving swiftly across the lake like a shadow, silently and as fast as a ghost.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded in satisfaction. Yao Yuegong's Qinggong was superb and well-known.

This Flower-Moon Shadow Step is indeed a unique skill. Compared with his own "A World Away Step", its speed may be slightly slower, but its twists and turns are better.

The "A World Away" step is similar to a short-distance sprint, which is fast and intense, but once you start sprinting, it's not easy to change direction.

And instantly drain the energy in Dantian.

Without the cooperation of Di Yuan Jue, the "A World Away Steps" would be somewhat useless.

He observed the flow of vital energy in Xiao Ruoling's body, detected where his breath was stagnant, and helped him adjust it.

Qinggong is not just about moving your breath to achieve speed, it is the coordination between body and breath. The more perfect the coordination, the faster the speed.

Chu Zhiyuan only gave a few pointers, and Xiao Ruoling felt that his speed had increased significantly, and his Qinggong skills were running more smoothly and smoothly.

As for Qinggong, Chu Zhiyuan did not teach her step by step as he did with swordsmanship. He did not have to be afraid that she would not be able to digest it and would not dare to give her more instructions in one day.

For her, Qinggong is easier to practice because it does not require any confrontation and she only needs to remember the feeling of her body.

With Chu Zhiyuan's detailed instructions, her speed became faster and faster. By midnight, when she was sweating profusely, her speed had doubled.

Chu Zhiyuan then left with satisfaction.

During this process, Chu Zhiyuan had been using the Qionghua Jiuzhanglu to help her practice, so she practiced Qinggong while also practicing.

-

Early in the morning, Chu Zhiyuan appeared in Mingwu Palace.

Chu Qingfeng saw him coming and shook his head, saying, "Don't ask around."

Chu Zhiyuan looked at him helplessly.

"It's best not to ask about this matter. It's no good."

"Uncle, I just want to know why the Yongling Divine Cult wants to lead the Mongol cavalry into Fuyuan Town?"

"You are too curious!"

"It's like a fishbone stuck in your throat, you can't feel relieved until you get it out."

“…I can’t say.”

"Uncle, then I want to know, can the Yongling Cult still be safe and sound despite committing such a heinous crime?"

"Of course you will be severely punished."

"How severe is the punishment?"

"The leader of the Yongling Divine Cult has been severely injured. He will not be able to come out within ten years."

"Within ten years, the Yongling Divine Cult will not be able to stir up trouble again?"

"Ah."

"This is too easy for them." Chu Zhiyuan was not satisfied: "How many people died in the fall of Fuyuan Town? Are they just going to let it go like this?"

"The Eternal Spiritual Cult will have to pay some price, such as treasures and elixirs. The Tianbao Division will ask them for them... By the way, the King of England also praised you for this great victory. Go to the Tianbao Division and take a look."

Chu Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed.

"Go ahead, go ahead and practice your skills, don't ask any questions."

"Yes."

-

Chu Zhiyuan sat on the bed in Tingtao Courtyard.

The windows were open, letting in bright sunlight.

Chu Zhiyuan sat in the sun, slowly opened a small jade bottle, and a golden pill rolled into his palm.

In the bright sunshine, this longan-sized golden elixir sparkled as if it were made of gold.

The smile on Chu Zhiyuan's mouth slowly widened.

The pill that can make you lose your mortal body!
This is the elixir that he has been seeking for.

King Chu Mingrui of England gave a large part of the credit for the victory in Fuyuan Town to Chu Zhiyuan, which led to a sharp increase in his merits and finally promoted him from the second rank to the first rank.

This is military achievement.

Military exploits are the greatest of all merits.

It is extremely difficult to be promoted to the first rank for meritorious service outside the battlefield, but on the battlefield, the difficulty is reduced by more than ten times.

So I exchanged it for this Tuimian Pill.

Staring at this first-grade elixir, Chu Zhiyuan suddenly had beautiful fantasies.

At the same time, there are some concerns.

This is already a first-grade elixir, the best among all elixirs.

Its efficacy means the ultimate effect of the elixir. Can it help me enter the sixth heaven?
If you can only enter the sixth heaven, you have to slowly grind your way up to the remaining four heavens by yourself?

These thoughts appeared in his mind one after another at once, making it difficult for him to calm down.
