There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

Wang Ping glanced at Rong Yang Fu Jun before he could say anything. Yu Lian beside him said, "Rong Yang Daoyou's chess skills are not good enough. This method is unfair."

When Rong Yang heard this, he immediately looked over here. When he was about to speak, Ao Bing on the opposite side spoke before him: "I am not like you who bully others by taking advantage of your power. I gave up three pieces in this game, and I am playing with white pieces."

His tone was full of arrogance.

Lord Rongyang did not feel ashamed at all. He clasped his fists towards Ao Bing and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, you are so kind. Why don't we start over? How about you let me have the fifth child?"

Ao Bing's eyes widened, and for a moment he couldn't find the words to respond.

Yu Lian's eyes rolled, and when she was about to say something, the referee Cang Ji said first: "You two fellow Taoists should not be distracted, this game of chess is related to the outcome of the battle."

Upon hearing this, Lord Rongyang bowed to Cangji. Although he was not very good at chess, he was not defeated and had to flee in disarray as Ao Bing had given him three pieces and he was playing black first.

Ao Bing raised his eyebrows and closed his mouth tightly.

Bu Qiong had already washed the tea leaves, and the fragrance of the tea became stronger. Wang Ping also smelled a faint scent of honey at this time, and then he heard Bu Qiong introduce: "Although this tea is made from green tea, it has been smoked during the production process, so it has the fragrance of honey."

Yu Lian's eyes lit up, "Then I must taste it carefully."

Wang Ping also showed some expectation in his eyes.

Bu Qiong was very satisfied with the reactions of the two guests. When her slender fingers lifted the teapot and were pouring tea, Ao Bing, who was playing chess next to her, suddenly frowned and took out a communication token from his storage bag with some impatience. Then his face changed slightly, and he suddenly looked up at Rong Yang, with a strong murderous intent in his eyes.

Cang Ji, who was acting as the referee, was in the same situation, but he remained calm. He looked at Ao Bing and said, "Keep calm and win this game first."

Wang Ping and Yu Lian both sensed the two's movements and changes. A smile immediately appeared in Yu Lian's golden vertical pupils, and she said in her spiritual sea: "Did Guan Xi succeed?"

"Correct!"

Wang Ping couldn't help but smile. If Ao Bing and Cang Ji had participated in the affairs of Xizhou, then the news that the bargaining chips in the hands of Shangqing Sect had been taken away would definitely have reached their ears. Given Ao Bing's character, his thoughts would definitely be affected.

"Here, try this tea."

Bu Qiong pushed two teacups in front of Wang Ping and Yu Lian.

Wang Ping picked up the teacup and smelled the tea first. When he was about to taste it, a familiar scent came from the west.

Bu Qiong immediately stood up and said with a smile: "I think it is Daoist Fellow Zhigong who has arrived. I will go out to greet her. Daoists, please wait for a moment."

After Bu Qiong, the master, left, Ao Bing finally couldn't help but said to Rong Yang, "Daoyou, you are really good at this. I didn't understand why you, an old fellow, suddenly went crazy and attacked my disciples, but I didn't expect that you were also planning to make a move in Xizhou!"

Rong Yang showed a puzzled expression when he heard this, and asked in confusion: "What do you mean by this, fellow Daoist?"

His reaction startled Ao Bing, who was almost fooled by him. But Ao Bing soon realized what was happening and snorted coldly, "Why are you playing dumb? Are you trying to continue the great war between the demon races that happened thousands of years ago?"

Rong Yang dropped a piece, met Ao Bing's eyes, and said very seriously: "The demon clan war has ended, so why is there talk of a continuation?"

Ao Bing sneered, "Don't pretend."

"Why should I pretend? Brother Ao Bing, although I was an unknown person back then, I knew that Linshui Prefecture remained neutral. Why? Are you suddenly concerned about this matter now?"

Rong Yang's words were full of contempt.

Ao Bing was furious, and Cang Ji said in time: "Don't mention things that haven't happened yet." He said this to Ao Bing, then looked at Rong Yang and said: "The order of the world has finally stabilized, why bother to cause more trouble?"

When Rong Yang heard this, he looked like he had a lot to say in rebuttal, so Wang Ping couldn't help but interrupt him and said, "This tea is indeed unique. The three Taoist friends should quickly decide the winner and come over to taste it."

As he finished speaking, Bu Qiong landed beside him with a bow, and everyone started to show meaningless politeness again.

Bu Qiong invited Zhi Gong to sit next to Wang Ping. Rong Yang and Ao Bing also shut up and concentrated on the chess game in front of them. The differences between the two sides had been debated for thousands of years without any result, and it was impossible to come to a conclusion now.

When Bu Qiong sat down, Yu Lian immediately said, "This tea is really delicious. Does it have a name?"

She wanted to go back to the demon tribe to buy some.

Bu Qiong smiled and replied, "It's called Seven Fruit Tea. I just said that it was smoked when it was made. The branches of the Seven Fruit Tree with beehives were used for smoking. Only about 100 kilograms of finished products are produced each year. It is not sold to the public yet, but I have about 10 kilograms here. If you like it, I will give you some when you leave."

Yu Lian smiled happily and said, "Thank you very much for your generosity, fellow Taoist."

Bu Qiong picked up the teapot and poured tea for Zhi Gong while telling her about the gambling game between Rong Yang and Ao Bing. Zhi Gong's brows twitched when she heard it.

After a cup of tea.

Zhi Gong stood up and walked to stand next to Rong Yang, as if he wanted to give him some advice, but was warned by Cang Ji, which made Zhi Gong frown slightly.

But a quarter of an hour later, a smile appeared between Zhi Gong's brows.

Ao Bing was affected by the events in Xizhou, which led to deviations in his subsequent moves, giving Rong Yang an opportunity.

Half an hour later.

Rong Yang's face was full of smiles, while Ao Bing looked like he wanted to destroy the chess game in front of him. Finally, after crushing a chess piece, he bowed to everyone expressionlessly, then turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.

Cang Ji stood up and glanced at Rong Yang, then he clasped his fists towards Bu Qiong and said, "Brother Rong Yang won this game of chess. If you want compensation, go ask him for it."

After he said this, he turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.

Yu Lian looked at Rong Yang who was full of vigor, took a sip of tea and asked, "Can we get this compensation?"

"I don't think I can get it, but that doesn't stop me from asking for it." Rong Yang was in a good mood. "I'll ask for it every time I see Ao Bing next time. If I can't get it, I'll make him sick to death. Given Ao Bing's face-saving personality, maybe one day he won't be able to bear the provocation and really give us the compensation."

Wang Ping was also very happy.

Zhi Gong was thoughtful. She still thought too highly of the morality of the Fourth Realm cultivators and thought that this gambling game was genuine. "Since the two Taoist friends have already obtained what they wanted, how about ordering your disciples to withdraw from the southeastern sea area?" Bu Qiong mentioned this matter while Wang Ping and Rong Yang were happy.

Wang Ping looked at Rong Yang very humbly, as if waiting for Rong Yang to make a decision.

Rong Yang glanced at Wang Ping, then clasped his fists towards Bu Qiong and said, "Then withdraw, but we are returning victoriously."

Bu Qiong reminded, "Victory has already been established in the chess game just now, but I advise you not to involve the entire Linshui Mansion, otherwise there will be a lot of explanations later."

Rong Yang was startled, then nodded and said, "Thank you for your reminder, fellow Taoist."

Bu Qiong took the opportunity to invite him, "Since the matter has been settled, why don't you come over for a cup of tea?"

Rong Yang did not refuse. After sitting down, he, Zhi Gong and Wang Ping took out a communication token at the same time and passed down orders to the disciples on the front line.

Jinshan Island.

Zi Luan and most other cultivators breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the order to retreat. They were already losing cultivators of the third realm when they attacked the outer defense line of Dongfeng Island. If they continued to attack Dongfeng Island by force, they themselves would be in danger of perishing.

While preparing to retreat, they no longer thought about the reasons for the war, but instead counted the spoils the war had brought them.

They all had smiles on their faces, because they had made a lot of money in this war. Even the two mortal navies had looted hundreds of thousands of taels of silver and a large number of rare treasures in the previous wars.

As soon as Zi Luan was relieved of his important task, he went back to the Six Hearts Sect's dojo to meditate. He absorbed a lot of spirituality in this war, which made his soul almost as strong as his physical body. Even if his physical body only retained a little bit of soul consciousness, it could suppress the spirit veins.

Wang Ping had been paying close attention to Zi Luan from the beginning, and he watched the entire process of Zi Luan's soul changes.

"Will this help me advance to the fourth realm?"

Yu Lian had naturally followed Wang Ping to observe the changes in Zi Luan's soul. With her sensitivity to the soul, she was very clear about the changes that Zi Luan's current soul strength had brought to him, so she had this question.

Wang Ping was drinking tea in his own dojo at the moment. It was the seven-fruit tea that Bu Qiong gave to Yu Lian. A few days ago, after the chess game between Rong Yang and Ao Bing ended, he, Rong Yang, Zhi Gong and Bu Qiong drank tea and chatted until dark, then said goodbye and left.

In other words, their fight with Linshui Prefecture has temporarily ended so far.

Wang Ping thought for a while before answering Yu Lian's question: "There are three ways for Tai Yan cultivators to advance to the fourth realm. Zi Luan seems to be trying to advance by enslaving the three-realm Yuanshen in order to enhance his compatibility with the 'Heaven-Blocking Talisman'. This invasion of Linshui Mansion has allowed him to harvest a lot of three-realm Yuanshen. The next step is to find a body for the Yuanshen."

After listening to this, Yu Lian tilted her head and said, "You haven't answered my question yet."

Wang Ping picked up the teacup, sniffed the refreshing tea fragrance, and replied: "One's own soul is strong enough, and he can enslave the souls of the three realms to obtain more data. Also, in the later stage, the best way is to split his own soul, so the method of increasing the strength of the soul is feasible. Doing so can increase his success rate of promotion."

His tone was affirmative.

Yu Lian swallowed the tea in the cup in one gulp and asked, "If there is a quota, are you going to give it to him?"

Wang Ping heard the images of Que Cai, Li Miaolin, Xia Wenyi, Xuan Ling, Zi Luan, and his direct disciple Shen Xiaozhu flashed through his mind, and finally said, "If there are extra spots, and I have to plan for the fifth realm, I think I will give him one."

Yu Lian was not surprised. She nodded and said softly, "He is indeed a very useful tool. He has great wisdom, but also some cleverness. He is also cunning enough. His human consciousness can be transformed into evil and justice at any time."

After she finished speaking, she put down her teacup, flew up into the sky, and said, "I'll go see Xiao Zhu. Her injuries should be almost healed."

Wang Ping did not go with them. In fact, he cared about Shen Xiaozhu very much. After all, she was his chosen disciple, and was taught by Taoist Yucheng since childhood. She was also the spiritual pillar of most disciples of Qianmu Temple. She enjoyed a high prestige among the grassroots cultivators because she truly represented the grassroots cultivators.

But Shen Xiaozhu is under a lot of pressure now. After all, even Xia Wenyi has advanced to the third level, but she has failed. If Wang Ping visits Shen Xiaozhu often, even if he doesn't talk about cultivation, it will double Shen Xiaozhu's pressure. If she is not careful, she will lose her last breath and will not have the energy to advance to the third level.

Although he did not go with them, with Wang Ping's current level of cultivation, he could see Shen Xiaozhu's condition clearly with just a glance of his soul. The spiritual veins in her body had recovered very well. She had been teaching her disciples and practicing at the same time over the years, and her mentality had been very good. Perhaps in a few years she would be able to retreat and try to reach the third level.

After Wang Ping confirmed Shen Xiaozhu's condition, he stopped caring about her and took out the "Dongtian Mirror" to observe the situation in the world.

The Datong Dynasty was split into two during this turmoil. The northwestern court established its capital in Shangning, and the newly-established emperor of the southern clan stopped in Shunyang Prefecture, Ningzhou Road, because Qianmuguan had not yet expressed its position.

Liu Shuang had reported this matter a long time ago, and Wang Ping's response at the time was "wait a minute".

As for the northern rebels occupied by Shangjing City, they are still arguing over the position of leader, but it is estimated that there will be a result soon because the Zhenyang Sect has made time.

After gathering this information, Wang Ping used his luck formation to slowly deduce the truth.

He did not bring any character into the deduction this time. The first thing he saw was endless fire and water that swallowed everything. This should be the confrontation between Zhenyang Sect and Linshui Mansion again.

Wang Ping really wanted to see who would win or lose in this duel, but these images split into millions of futures, and most of the futures were blurry and distorted. In other words, the future of both sides could not be deduced using the luck array, and even a single image could not be constructed.

So he gave up decisively.

After sitting there in deep thought for a while, Wang Ping smiled self-deprecatingly, then took out a chessboard from his storage bag to pass the time, and drove the puppet in the yard to make tea for him.

The chess game had just reached the middle stage when energy fluctuations came from the communication token that Guan Xi had handed to him.

Guan Xi arrived near Qianmu Temple.

Wang Ping immediately flew up and released his aura.

Yu Lian in Shen Xiaozhu's dojo immediately took off and landed beside him.

Just as Yu Lian was about to ask what was going on, a pure white light flashed under the clouds, and then Guan Xi's gentle figure appeared.

Both sides politely saluted each other with fists.

When Wang Ping invited Guan Xi to go down for tea, Guan Xi shook his head and said, "We have a lot of things to do internally right now. This time I came here to give you Xuan Qing's spiritual body."

As he spoke, he threw out a white sealing crystal without any reluctance.

When Wang Ping took the sealing crystal, Guan Xi decisively turned into a white light and disappeared into the sky. (End of this chapter)
