This is how immortals are cultivated

Needless to say, Fang Suichu's two female relatives were full of energy and vitality, and their vitality and vigor were evident on their faces. If you ignore the women's identities, they really looked like the martial artists Zhang Jingsheng had seen.

But Fang Suichu really doesn't look like it.

At first glance, apart from his slender figure, well-proportioned body and handsome appearance, he lacks the kind of fullness of spirit that is visible on the outside.

However, after careful observation and feeling, this Brother Fang is indeed different from ordinary people.

That is 'clean'.

His skin is fair, tender and delicate, and his body is clean, just like a nobleman raised in a wealthy family.

And this is not the reason why Zhang Jingsheng feels "clean".

The cleanliness that Zhang Jingsheng felt was a feeling emanating from Brother Fang's body, as if no matter how much filth there was, it could not defile him at all.

It doesn't really look like he is a martial artist. Even if I take a step back, I have never seen a martial artist who can deal with monsters.

However, out of self-cultivation, Zhang Jingsheng subconsciously continued Fang Suichu's words:

"I wonder which great hero he learned this from?"

"I just practiced blindly."

"Oh, hero, I've long heard of you..." Zhang Jingsheng suddenly stopped.

Chapter 80: Beat Me Up

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that heroes break the law with force.

Martial arts can strengthen oneself, and the abundant strength can indeed easily develop courage, and one has a lower awe for laws and regulations than ordinary people.

Caravans and escort agencies traveling through the wilderness generally only recruit young, strong, and skilled martial artists. Even traveling merchants hire martial artists. When encountering strange situations in the wilderness, martial artists are indeed more courageous than ordinary people.

Martial arts training is related to the human body, and the human body is so wonderful that it is beyond words, so martial arts training often requires a master to teach you how to get started.

Can this thing be practiced by oneself?

Moreover, after practicing blindly, you dare to go out and walk in the wild with three people?

"Brother Fang is really good at joking."

Zhang Jingsheng used a smile to hide his embarrassment.

But he soon stopped laughing.

An old woman with white hair and a youthful face walked towards him from the direction the housekeeper left.

He was hunched over, leaning on a wooden cane, dressed in gorgeous clothes and wearing pearl hairpins and gold ornaments.

It is obvious that this old woman is the owner of this farm.

"What a distinguished guest..."

When the old woman entered the yard, her first gaze was on Zhang Jingsheng.

When that gaze came over, Zhang Jingsheng only felt that rustling sound beside his ears appeared again, and this time it became extremely clear, as if the thing that made the sound was right next to him.

Zhang Jingsheng felt as if his soul was being pulled out of his body, and everything around him was drifting away.

A burning heat rose in his arms, Zhang Jingsheng turned around suddenly, and then bit the tip of his tongue hard.

The pain in his mouth made him shudder.

Seeing the strange old woman walking towards him with a smile, he took advantage of his clear mind and quickly said:

"I can't call you a distinguished guest. To be honest, I'm from Yunzhou and am preparing to go to Linge County to take up my post."

The words "Yunzhou" and "took office" made the old woman pause. Before she could speak, a voice of surprise came from the side.

When he turned around, Zhang Jingsheng found that it was Fang Suichu who made the voice. The two female relatives beside him also cast their eyes on him after hearing the name "Linge County".

Zhang Jingsheng didn't understand why Mr. Fang had such a reaction. He turned his head back to see how the old woman would react.

The old woman's smile faded, and after a moment's silence she spoke:

"So the distinguished guest is an official and is on his way to take up his post."

Official status is what Zhang Jingsheng relies on.

This is also the reason why he is not afraid even if he travels alone in the wilderness in the territory of Great Wu.

The land of Wu was guarded by the "Xue Palace", and the Wu Dynasty was also supported by the Xue Palace.

Together with the many Taoist sects within the territory of Wu, they ruled this part of the world.

Although he is just an ordinary person now, if he takes office and holds the seal, he will be able to gain supernatural powers.

The thing in his arms was a talisman issued by the Ministry of Revenue of the Great Wu court, representing the official title of the eighth-rank county magistrate of Linge County.

This talisman bears the seal of the Ministry of Revenue, so it has a certain magical power and ordinary monsters cannot get close to it.

This Zhuangzi, this old woman is probably a powerful monster. Corresponding to the realm of practitioners, they should be spirit guides, and they are probably the most advanced among the spirit guides.

This talisman alone cannot control the opponent, but at this point, Zhang Jingsheng no longer relies on the talisman, but on the tiger skin of his official status in the Wu Kingdom.

In this world, the consequences of killing an official are extremely serious, and the same is true for cultivators or monsters.

If there was someone following him, for example, a spiritual master recognized by the imperial blood seal, it would be easy to deal with. He could be killed by a mere eighth-rank county official. At most, he would be punished, but he would not lose his life.

But it was different for wild spirits without followers. If they dared to kill an official, even if they were at the "Spiritual Secret" level, which was considered to be a spirit that had attained the Dao, they would definitely be eliminated by the Spiritual Secret Dao veins of the entire county. As for attracting spirits, it went without saying.

This is also where Zhang Jingsheng's decision to negotiate came from.

As long as it is not an out-of-control monster, as long as it is a monster with a certain degree of intelligence, it will most likely let go after weighing the pros and cons.

After all, throwing away one's own life for blood food is not worth it no matter how you look at it.

Seeing the old woman lost in thought, Zhang Jingsheng felt at peace.

It seems that I should be able to get through this crisis today smoothly.

He immediately continued, "I was in a hurry to take up my post, but I stumbled into this treasured place by mistake. It is enough for me to share in the joy. I beg you to be kind and allow me to continue on my journey.

As he said this, he winked at Zhang Fu, Fang Suichu and the other two. Zhang Fu saw it and jumped up as if there were springs under his butt, and came to Zhang Jingsheng's side.

However, Fang Suichu and the other two continued to sit there casually, as if they hadn't seen anything.

Zhang Jingsheng also became anxious, and went straight behind Fang Suichu and patted him on the shoulder.

The old woman also came back to her senses from her deep thoughts at this moment:

"Then, sir, these three are also with you?"

"Of course, these three are the housekeepers and maids I hired. They came together."

The old woman smiled and said, "But I heard from my housekeeper that you two don't seem to be on the same path..."

"But never mind, it's all the same anyway."

"I don't want to stop you from taking up your new post."

"But since you're here and want to share in my family's good fortune, you should at least give me some gifts."

The old woman's polite words and kind face made Zhang Jingsheng's heart sink gradually.

This situation doesn't look like it can be resolved amicably.

Zhang Jingsheng pondered for a moment, then spoke cautiously, "I'm short of money, but some items are needed by the government, so I can't give them away. I'm afraid this gift is..."

"Okay, okay..."

The old woman said with a smile:

"I've long heard that scholars have seven minds. And being able to serve as an official, even as a mere mortal, has more intelligence and is extremely delicious."

"Why don't you leave your heart here, boy?"

A cold wind blew from all directions, but the lanterns hanging around remained motionless. However, the red light in them suddenly burst out, almost filling the entire yard.

As the old woman walked forward, she discovered that she had no feet under her skirt. It seemed that something was rolling under her skirt, supporting her and allowing her to move forward.

"Boy, you can leave only one heart behind. As for the others... you can just stay. My daughter is getting married this time, and the dowry needs to be richer."

At this moment, a curse came from the side and the table was overturned.

"You piece of shit! I agreed not to charge membership fees, and you're trying to squeeze me out of it? No way!"

"Qingming, Xiaoshuo, come on, beat her up!"

Zhang Jingsheng was stunned, and so was the old woman.

The delicate-looking woman beside the young man blushed, while the heroic woman covered her face with her hands, sighed, and said:

"I'm telling you, why don't you just do it directly? Why do you have to do this?"

PS: There is one more chapter coming later.

Chapter 81: Tree Spirit: Tempering (700 plus)

Previously, Fang Suichu made a lot of money from the Jin family in many ways.

In short, the money for the long journey was paid, so Fang Suichu took Li Qingming and Wu Yuanshuo, eating, drinking, and killing all the way to Jingzhou.

Jingzhou is the neighboring state of Shuzhou, and is also Fang Suichu's hometown.

Speaking of which, his previous life had been resold three times, always to neighboring states, which was a blessing. To repay this good fortune, before arriving in Jingzhou, Fang Suichu made a special trip to visit several ghost markets he had previously stayed in. After hunting for a while, he reluctantly crossed the state boundary to come here.

Along the way, you will inevitably encounter some small copies that are not recorded on the map obtained from the ancestor of the Jin family.

What Fang Suichu called a small copy was naturally a BOSS that was not even at the Spiritual Secret Realm. Not only were the monsters in the copy scarce in number, but most of them were at the Spirit Inducing Realm.

To be honest, as Fang Suichu's strength level increases, killing the spirit is no longer useful.

Even little Karami in the Spirit Induction Realm couldn't even trigger the system adventure.

That being said, it's like playing an open-world game, and having already reached the late stages, if you stumble upon a guide that mentions an early stage dungeon you missed, you'll still happily go and complete it. Even if the dungeon is small, you'll still go if you see Fang Suichu.

Furthermore, it was also for the purpose of training Li Qingming and Wu Yuanshuo.

The elixirs transformed by the system can be used by people other than him. The system seems to have constant the effects of the transformation.

After the two women's meridians were stable and they had mastered the small circulation of qi and blood, Fang Suichu gave them elixirs. With the help of the elixirs, both women completed the foundation building in 100 days and had begun to strengthen their bones.

As your cultivation level improves, your combat experience must also be improved.

I've decided to make a big splash in this world, so naturally, I need the help of my good wife... ahem, naturally, I need the help of my humerus. Anyway, judging by the situation, the three of them are likely to be tied together in the future.

Although there is a saying that if one person succeeds, everyone around him will benefit, if you really want to travel together, you still have to take the route of seeking the same great path.

Therefore, if they really encountered a small copy on the road, Fang Suichu would usually watch from the side and let the two girls try. Anyway, with him as the backup, some ghosts or weird cultivators would be sent to heaven in one go.

Like now.

He complained about Fang Suichu's bad taste, but even though he complained, Li Qingming took direct action.

Unlike Wu Yuanshuo, who is well-behaved and gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, Li Qingming has a very fierce temper, and his strength is directly revealed in his appearance.

After a hundred days of foundation building, the surge of Qi and blood made this girl even more fierce to a certain extent.

Especially after the experience of being bought and sold like commodities before, he now has the power and is ruthless to the monsters and strange cultivators without any psychological burden.

Fang Suichu opened up a new path of martial arts for this world, a path that leads directly to the path of immortality. But no matter what, no matter which realm of martial arts, the common point is the same, that is, mind, skill, and body.

Needless to say, the body is equivalent to life skills and cultivation to a certain extent.

Skills are equivalent to "arts", like Fang Suichu's Taiyin Soul-Slaying Knife and Taiyin Body Refining Technique.

However, this kind of technique must at least reach the innate stage, that is, the realm of refining the orifices to open up the three gates of heaven, earth and man, connect heaven and earth, and be able to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth before it can truly exert its power.

Before this, the art was just the technique of releasing Qi and blood, and exerting force to ensure that one's own numerical values ​​could be maximized.

As for the mind, it is universal and extremely important in any state and stage.

The consistent outburst of Qi and blood requires integration with one's own mind.

Li Qingming's mental strength and willpower were quite good. When he punched the old woman, the only thought in his mind was to kill her.

The old woman naturally reacted.

The rustling sound was heard again, red lanterns fluttered, and blood was everywhere.

But ordinary people like Zhang Jingsheng would not be captured.

Under the surge of will and blood, all sounds and lights were torn apart.
