The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 412 Don't bully the middle-aged poor

Northern Mozhou, Qianji Gate.

If Zijin Pavilion is the leader in the Kyushu art refining world, then Qianjimen is undoubtedly the second largest art refining school in Northern Mozhou. It can even surpass Zijin Pavilion in the refining of low-level magic weapons.

However, compared to the overlord sect Zijin Pavilion, the combat power of Qianjimen's disciples is not enough, so Qianjimen never wants their disciples to take risks in foreign battlefields.

However, the seven major factions have jointly signed the "External Battlefield Trial Convention" witnessed by Tiandao. All monks in the Kyushu Qi Condensation Stage must participate in at least one extraterritorial battlefield trial before they can advance to the Foundation Establishment Stage. Otherwise, a huge amount of merit will be directly deducted , Even sects will be implicated.

Therefore, even if they knew that their craftsmen had entered the battlefield outside the territory, and they were serving as cannon fodder for other sects specializing in combat, Qianjimen could only bite the bullet and push their disciples into the pit of fire.

Every time there were trials in the outer battlefield, the young disciples of Qianjimen suffered heavy casualties, sometimes even more than [-]% casualties, and countless promising forging masters died here in vain.

But this time, a shocking situation happened in this extraterritorial battlefield trial. This year, among the qi-refinement period trialists sent by Qianjimen, there was a god of war who killed two golden wheels of merit!

This person's name was Zhang Zhicheng, and he was not well known in Qianjimen. Many people only found out after asking around that this person was actually a disciple of Qianjimen's Artifact Refining Hall who was in charge of recycling used magic weapons.

In other words, this guy is a good-for-nothing picker.

As we all know, picking up junk can only exercise the ability to repair magic weapons at most, and can't develop real refining skills at all. For aspiring refining masters, wasting time in such a hopeless subdivision field is a waste of time life.

But some tasks must be taken care of by someone, after all, the recovery of magic weapons is also one of the sect's sources of income.Therefore, only the most unpopular disciples are often sent to do this kind of dirty work.

However, it was such a non-existent Qi-refining seventh-level monk who forcibly killed two golden wheels of merit in the outer battlefield. That is to say, at least a dozen or so practitioners died at the hands of this person.

Even the direct disciples of Zijin Pavilion, the overlord of Beimo Prefecture, during the Qi refining period, seldom have such a fierce record!
It's as if an ideological and moral lecturer of a college suddenly published a cover article in "Nature" or "Science". Zhang Zhicheng, who was originally a fringe figure in Qianjimen, instantly became a star of the entire sect. Before Yang Lu The chief craftsman of the team enjoyed the joy of victory, so he was taken to the head of Qianjimen by the elders of the sect who were in charge of accepting the disciples for trial for interrogation.

The head of Qianji Sect didn't believe that his sect could cultivate such an existence like Mr. Wolong, so he called Zhang Zhicheng over for questioning, but he also held a skeptical attitude.

However, Zhang Zhicheng is not completely without cards. Decades of picking up garbage has also allowed him to practice the unique skill of shooting countless semi-finished magic weapons at the enemy like cannonballs.

Although this move was dubbed "King's Trash" by Yang Lu, its power is actually quite impressive, and the activation process only consumes a very low mana. The actual mana used is actually the amount of activation that makes the garbage magic weapons fly.Not only that, due to the huge number and types of rubbish magic weapons, he can attack any enemy's weak points. If he is prepared in advance, the instantaneous firepower that Zhang Zhicheng can unleash is no less than that of the direct disciples of the seven major sects.

When facing Liu Xiahui, the direct descendant of Wanhua Valley, Zhang Zhicheng was able to take the opponent's full blow, which shows his power.

After Zhang Zhicheng demonstrated this special method, although the head of Qianji Sect is still a little unbelievable, he is not as suspicious as before. More importantly, Zhang Zhicheng invented this "king's garbage", which can be said to be Created a new idea in the field of refining equipment, effectively making up for the serious shortage of Qianjimen's low-level refining masters' combat power.

If this kind of spell can be popularized in Qianjimen, then the overall death rate of Qianjimen disciples in the future battlefield outside the territory will be greatly reduced.

Of course, Zhang Zhicheng was able to practice "King's Garbage" at almost zero cost, mainly because no one realized the power of this tactic before. The tide will rise and all boats will rise, and it is unlikely that anyone in the future will be able to easily repeat the miracle of salted fish turning over like Zhang Zhicheng.

Even so, as a pioneer who created a new idea of ​​refining weapons, as long as this method can be popularized, Zhang Zhicheng, as the first advocate, might be able to cultivate the third golden wheel of merit.

And the monks with the golden wheel of three merits, even if they only have low-level spiritual root qualifications, are enough to become the mainstay of the local sect.

Although there is such an ultimate move as "King's Garbage", Zhang Zhicheng's ability to kill two golden wheels of merit is a bit outrageous, but the current head of Qianjimen is too lazy to investigate deeply, because he has been completely defeated by Zhang Zhicheng and the future of Qianjimen. The prospect dazzled me.

Don't talk about Zhang Zhicheng's experience in the foreign battlefield, even the death of his own direct disciple in the foreign battlefield seems a bit irrelevant now. Anyone who dares to question Zhang Zhicheng will be an enemy of the entire Qianjimen!

Just when everyone in Qianji Sect was curious about what the head of the sect summoned Zhang Zhicheng to talk about, the explosive news spread quickly:

Because the original direct descendant of the head of the sect accidentally fell on the battlefield outside the territory, and considering that his own sect sent out such an elite as Zhang Zhicheng, the head of the Qianji sect decided to accept this person as his new direct disciple, and planned to stay by his side to cultivate well. !

From a trash-picking disciple in the Artifact Refining Hall to the direct descendant of the Qianji Sect's master, Zhang Zhicheng's status in the sect can be described as skyrocketing.

Although Zhang Zhicheng is still only a disciple of the seventh level of Qi refining, and he is not too young, but since he passed the trial in the foreign battlefield, he has two golden wheels of merit and virtue, and has also seized a lot of property, and invented a brand new weapon refiner battle. Technology, the future advanced stage of foundation building is almost a certainty.

That is to say, with the support of the head of the sect himself, Zhang Zhicheng may become the elder of Qianjimen's Foundation Establishment Stage at worst in the future. If his character explodes again and he is lucky enough to advance to the Jindan realm, he may even be expected to compete for the next Qianjimen Master!

As the saying goes, icing on the cake is easy, but giving charcoal in the snow is difficult.

After hearing the news, a large number of Qianjimen disciples almost broke through the threshold of the magic weapon recycling station of the Refining Hall, just to have a good relationship with this talented new star who can turn into a dragon when encountering a storm.

However, Zhang Zhicheng's presence in Qianjimen was almost zero before, and even the management of the Artifact Refining Hall, who was in charge of arranging tasks for him, didn't know what this kid was doing, so when everyone was looking for Zhang Zhicheng to wish (tao) congratulate (ci) At that time, he found no trace of him no matter where he was.

What everyone didn't know was that after Zhang Zhicheng came out of the head cave, he immediately came to an independent courtyard in the mountain behind Qianjimen.

Those who can have an independent courtyard inside Qianjimen, except for the sect's Foundation Establishment and Golden Core Stage monks, are basically the direct disciples of the elders and the masters in the late stage of Qi refining.An older disciple like Zhang Zhicheng, who picks up rubbish in the waste pile, is not even qualified to set foot in this important place of the sect.

But today is different.

Zhang Zhicheng was already a direct disciple of the head of the sect. After showing his identity card, even if the disciple in charge of guarding the back mountain didn't recognize him, he immediately respectfully saluted and let him go.

But the courtyard Zhang Zhicheng visited was not ordinary.

There are no high-ranking sects or new geniuses living here, but a beautiful and beautiful Qi-refining female cultivator. At this time, she is cleaning the yard with a broom. From time to time, she raises her head and looks outside the yard, as if expecting something. .

Looking at the opponent's back, Zhang Zhicheng swallowed hard.

Although the appearance of my senior sister looks relatively young, it is only because of the skillful appearance of a cultivator. Her real age is not too young for a cultivator in the refining period. , It is completely incomparable with those beautiful teammates who have unspoken rules in the extraterritorial battlefield.

But perhaps because the other party was the object of his crush for decades, Zhang Zhicheng seemed extremely hesitant at this moment. Even when he hacked to death the direct disciple of Zijin Pavilion, he was not so nervous.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard a surprise cry from the other party:
"Brother Niu, are you back?"

Hearing the other party call out his lover's name directly, Zhang Zhicheng said with a little embarrassment: "Senior sister, I'm Zhang Zhicheng..."

After the female monk turned around and saw Zhang Zhicheng's appearance clearly, the smile on her face froze instantly: "Why are you? Why did you sneak to the forbidden area in the back mountain? Where did senior brother Niu go?"

A complicated expression flashed in Zhang Zhicheng's eyes: "Senior Brother Niu...he died in the foreign battlefield!"

The female cultivator's complexion turned pale, and she said in a trembling voice, "Don't lie to me on purpose! Brother Niu is a direct disciple of the master master, how could he die casually on the battlefield outside the territory?"

Zhang Zhicheng just gave a wry smile and didn't speak.

Not to mention that senior brother Niu was just a direct disciple of the head of Qianji Sect, even Li Wenjing, the grand elder of Zijin Pavilion, was slaughtered in front of him like a dead dog.

Of course he knew why his senior sister panicked.

Since the other party also has low-level spiritual root aptitude, it is impossible to cultivate to the foundation-building stage through normal channels, so she gave up the conventional cultivation method very early, and was used by the second-generation immortal brother Niu with several thousand yuan of spiritual stone coins every year. The price is maintained.

Although being someone else's cauldron will damage one's cultivation foundation and have a bad reputation, as long as the other party's behavior is not excessive, these losses are worthwhile compared with the cultivation resources gained.

Now her cultivation has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, two full levels higher than Zhang Zhicheng who joined Qianjimen at the same time as her.

Therefore, when she heard that her biggest economic pillar had died in a foreign battlefield, she would of course panic. This was equivalent to the future benefits promised to her by senior brother Niu before, and now they have become a complete empty check.

Zhang Zhicheng actually doesn't know why he found this senior sister who was taken care of by the second generation of immortals as soon as he became the direct heir of the Qianji sect, just like he didn't know why he signed up to participate in the outer battlefield trial .

It's just that when he signed up to participate in the extraterritorial battlefield trial, he was more holding the idea of ​​"Anyway, this life is like this, it's better to break the jar"; Dazzled by the joy of ", by accident, I came to the residence where my senior sister and senior brother Niu met privately.

However, when he saw that his childhood sweetheart senior sister was still caring about senior brother Niu, Zhang Zhicheng didn't know what to say.

But seeing his senior sister crying, Zhang Zhicheng's heart twitched violently, and he blurted out: "Senior sister, don't worry, I will protect you in the future!"

Such a dog-licking attitude, if the teammates in the foreign battlefield knew about it, they would definitely laugh at it mercilessly, but the consolation of the big receiver did not have any effect at this time.

The news that the man who took care of him died on the battlefield outside the territory has made Zhang Zhicheng's senior sister completely unaware of what this sloppy junior brother is talking about.

After all, she had sacrificed too much to please Brother Niu, but the accidental death of the big benefactor was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for a woman like her who had no way out.

Of course she knew that Zhang Zhicheng had been secretly in love with her all the time, but she didn't think Zhang Zhicheng could protect her. If Zhang Zhicheng was really capable of giving her what she needed, she wouldn't have had to commit herself to that cruel and tyrannical senior brother Niu.

The greatest humiliation a woman can do to a man is to ignore it.

Seeing the attitude of his senior sister, Zhang Zhicheng, the big catcher, was instantly shocked in his heart.

The scene also fell into silence for a while.

Just when he was about to say something, countless colorful lights suddenly appeared from the sky, as if some powerful enemy was preparing to attack the headquarters of Qianjimen, even the distraught beautiful senior sister was attracted by such a scene attention.

What was faster than the escape light was the continuous congratulatory voices of the cultivators urged by the lion's roar:
"Brother Zhicheng, we have had a hard time finding you!"

"Congratulations to Junior Brother Zhicheng for becoming the head of my sect!"

"What did I say, when I was in the Artifact Refining Hall, I knew that Junior Brother Zhang was definitely not a thing in the pool!"

"Brother Zhang, we have already found out the matter. Brother Niu was the one who assigned Brother Zhang to recycle waste magic treasures. It was Brother Niu who ordered the mortal temporary workers from our Internal Affairs Hall to interfere. Brother, I was also kept in the dark. We have found the mortal temporary worker who was decided, and executed him on the spot in accordance with the sect's regulations, if Brother Zhang needs any compensation, just tell him, but don't mention it to the sect leader!"

Seeing these congratulators appearing in the dark, Zhang Zhicheng's senior sister was stunned. She turned her head to look at Zhang Zhicheng in disbelief and said, "Junior Brother Zhang...what do these people call you?"

Zhang Zhicheng sighed and said, "Senior sister, after Brother Niu's death, I will already be the new direct disciple of the head!"

The beautiful senior sister with a blank mind, this is the first time to seriously look at her junior brother.

In her impression, although her master treats her well, she has a submissive personality. He has been in the Immortal Gate for nearly 40 years, and he is just a good-for-nothing at the seventh level of Qi Refining. This kind of guy, no matter from any angle, There is no hope in this life. After all, everyone has only heard of Mo bullying the young and poor, but never heard of Mo bullying the middle-aged and poor.

But for some reason, the tone of Zhang Zhicheng's speech has not changed now, but his overall temperament is much more confident. It feels like a different person from before, and he looks much more attractive...

Before she could figure out what she should say, Zhang Zhicheng was completely overwhelmed by the congratulatory crowd.

"Junior Brother Zhang, Master Liu has been waiting for a long time, and he is planning to host a banquet for you in person!"

"We, Elder Feng, want to meet you very much. You have also met Elder Feng's daughter. She still doesn't have a Taoist partner yet!"

"Do you understand the rule of first come, first served? Brother Zhang is a young hero cultivated by our Artifact Refining Hall. Of course, you have to go and meet Master Hu with me first!"

Before Zhang Zhicheng had time to answer, he was forcibly taken away by the enthusiastic senior brothers, leaving only the bewildered beautiful senior sister standing there, and no one paid attention to her from the beginning to the end, as if she was regarded as air , after all, who cares about a broken flower that has been used for decades?

Looking at Zhang Zhicheng who was carried away by the stars like a moon, she also felt a little lost in her heart:
Some opportunities may be missed and never come back.
