Chapter 164 [Jade Liquid Golden Body] [Day Wandering God] Great Accomplishment

The next day.

After a day of fermentation, the news of the demon disaster in Guangling City spread throughout Qingmu County, sparking heated discussions.

Whether it was the various forces in Qingmu or the common people, they were all talking about it, making it quite lively.

What everyone was talking about was not the "demon disaster" itself.

In fact, due to An Jishi's intervention, the Demon Suppression Division had no chance to investigate further, so they naturally didn't know that the "demon disaster" in Guangling City originated from an evil curse.

They only considered it a coincidence, a sudden demon disaster.

People were already accustomed to disasters.

Not to mention, Guangling City was close to the mountains, with no ordinary people living there. Each of them possessed martial arts skills and made a living by licking blood from their blades. They had long disregarded matters of life and death and taken death lightly.

What truly sparked heated discussions among the various forces in Qingmu County was "Qiu Zhen."

As a "local," Qiu Zhen was suspected of possessing a "destiny," and he also practiced medicine to help the world. He had considerable fame and prestige in Qingmu County, and he was already quite well-known.

And this time, Qiu Zhen's reputation further increased.

Unlike the last time, this time Qiu Zhen's fame relied on his "Innate True Astral Realm" cultivation and his fierce battle record of fighting three against one and forcefully beheading three Great Innate True Astral Realm demons.

In an instant, Qiu Zhen's name as a "peerless genius" spread throughout Qingmu County, and his fame soared.

Demon Suppression Division of Changle Prefecture, Qingmu Garrison, a study in the backyard.

"Tan Zhi, do you have a grudge against Brother An's little disciple?"

"That's about it."

Wei Tanzhi's face was filled with bitterness.

"I asked you to assist Guangling City, but you're good, using your power to suppress others."

Inside the study, Demon Suppression General Xu Guangmou was wearing a black armor, with a faint, dim light flowing around it. He exuded an incomparably tyrannical and domineering aura, looking at Wei Tanzhi with a profound gaze, his tone somewhat stern:

"Foolish! How can you casually make an enemy of someone with such a destiny."

"This subordinate understands the importance of the matter."

Wei Tanzhi lowered his head, repeatedly acknowledging his mistake.

Seeing that Wei Tanzhi's attitude was good, Xu Guangmou nodded slightly, not saying much. Immediately, he sighed and said:

"Tan Zhi, do you know where the [Sky-Covering Giant Palm] from a few days ago came from?"

Wei Tanzhi was slightly stunned, but with his quick mind, he quickly realized something:

"Are you saying that the [Sky-Covering Giant Palm] was triggered by Qiu Zhen?"

"Yes, and no."

Xu Guangmou said leisurely: "To be precise, it was attracted by the Jade Dragon Mountain Lord. Brother An's little disciple is suspected to be the reincarnation of the Dragon Lord, or a future Dragon Lord candidate."

"Future Dragon Lord..."

Wei Tanzhi was shocked, his face filled with astonishment.

Just as the old and young were discussing in the study, in a farmhouse in the distant suburbs of Qingmu, an old and young man were also sitting opposite each other, talking incessantly.

"Qiu Zhen actually advanced to the [Innate True Astral Realm]? How is that possible!"

Mei Qingshan's face was filled with disbelief.

If he remembered correctly, Qiu Zhen had only just achieved the Innate realm half a year ago.

He possessed a "Golden Dragon Soul," with spiritual objects to help him swallow and refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, constantly supplying him with "spiritual essence," allowing his cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.

But what did Qiu Zhen have?

His cultivation speed was actually so fast!

"Elder, could it be that Qiu Zhen also has the Jade Mountain Dragon Soul?"

"This..."

Elder Bi You was stunned, his heart filled with suspicion and some regret.

The last time, Mei Qingshan suffered a loss at the hands of Qiu Zhen. He didn't feel anything, only thinking that Qiu Zhen was "a talented student from a famous teacher," and that he was a disciple of Grandmaster An Xiaozong, with extraordinary martial arts skills. It was normal for Mei Qingshan to capsize in the gutter.

However, in just half a year, Qiu Zhen had broken through from the "Innate True Qi Realm" to the "Innate True Astral Realm," and his speed was even faster than Mei Qingshan's.

This really frightened him.

In fact, he was now faintly regretting that he had chosen "Mei Qingshan" in the first place, and that his choice was somewhat hasty.

Of course, this thought only flashed through his mind.

There was no turning back once the bow was drawn, and everything could not be re-selected.

Elder Bi You shook his head, suppressed the restlessness in his heart, and said:

"Impossible, there is only one Jade Mountain Dragon Soul. Qiu Zhen definitely doesn't have it. He must have other opportunities."

After speaking, Elder Bi You looked at Mei Qingshan, his expression serious:

"Wulang, you must hurry up with your cultivation, achieve the Martial Dao Grandmaster realm as soon as possible, further integrate with the Dragon Soul, and find the Dragon Lord's Palace as soon as possible. Don't think too much about Qiu Zhen's matter, the big picture is the most important thing."

"Elder, I understand."

Throughout Qingmu County, people were discussing "Qiu Zhen" everywhere.

However, as the person at the center of the storm, Qiu Zhen plunged into the mountain valley to seclude himself and cultivate after returning to Qiu Family Village from Guangling City.

Unknowingly, seven days passed.

Qiu Zhen Mountain Valley.

The medicine fields were lush and green, with spiritual qi lingering, birds singing and flowers fragrant, quiet and peaceful, a scene of paradise on earth.

In the early morning, the sky was still early, and the sky had not yet turned fish-belly white, the fog was heavy, and the surroundings seemed a little dim.

However, a faint golden light was rising in the valley's training room.

Bai Zhu and Xiao Zaozi, who were taking care of the medicine fields, noticed the abnormality and went to find the light.

The next moment, the two little fellows revealed a slight look of surprise.

In the training room, Qiu Zhen was sitting cross-legged, his whole body emitting a faint golden light, as if he was cast in gold, indestructible and unbreakable.

Bai Zhu kowtowed and bowed:

"Congratulations, Young Master, for the great success of your divine skill, indestructible and invincible!"

Xiao Zaozi waved his green tree branch:

"Young Master is invincible!"

Qiu Zhen suddenly opened his eyes, and seeing the two little fellows congratulating him, a faint smile appeared on his face.

However, he had no time to pay attention to the two little fellows at the moment.

Without saying a word, he focused his mind and looked inward.

After a few days of recuperation, coupled with a large amount of "spiritual essence" in hand, the injuries to his primordial spirit and dharma body had finally healed.

Of course, the biggest gain from this retreat was the improvement in his cultivation.

Immediately, he focused his mind and sank into the spirit platform, looked inward, and the primordial spirit and dharma body began to deduce.

"[Essence Refining Qi Transformation Middle Stage] (Innate True Astral, Day Wandering God) Estimated to be completed in seven months"

"In less than half a year, the middle stage of Essence Refining Qi Transformation can be completed."

A satisfied smile appeared on Qiu Zhen's face.

In just a few days, his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, and his strength had greatly increased.

Reflecting on the martial arts, the Innate True Astral was solidified, the skill was superb, and the body-protecting divine skill [Jade Liquid Golden Body] was completed, vaguely possessing "indestructibility."

If he were to face those three dog-headed demons again, he would surely win more easily.

In addition, with the great increase in cultivation, the Yin God also went a step further.

Under the great success of the [Day Wandering God], even if he fought and killed people at noon, he would not be affected in any way. The Yin God could leave the body and walk in the human world with basically no danger.

Of course, it's not all good things.

Qiu Zhen scanned with his divine sense.

In the sea of consciousness, it was empty, without a single bit of spiritual essence.

After experiencing the "demon disaster" in Guangling City and knowing that the "inner demons and evil spirits" seemed to be very interested in him, he felt a sense of urgency.

According to his master An Jishi, there were many powerful "inner demons and evil spirits" wandering in the Changle Prefecture, and even grandmaster-level evil spirits. If he accidentally ran into one...

"It seems that I have to get more spiritual essence."

At this thought, Qiu Zhen thought of something and took out the [Miro Palace] from the storage space of the [Jade Dragon Treasure Seal].

The jade talisman bloomed with a faint spiritual light.

Qiu Zhen played with the [Miro Palace] jade talisman in his hand, and muttered:

"Whether or not we can break the situation depends on you."
