Xiuxian: I use magnetic fields to prove my truth

Chapter 347 Scorched Earth and Destroy the Fields, Starving Zhou Qing to Death

Zhou Qing said, "You guys are gambling. Do you think you've won or lost?"

After saying that, he stared straight into Consort Shiyue's eyes.

Consort Shiyue felt as if Zhou Qing's gaze pierced straight into her heart, making her feel a chill run down her spine.

Her throat suddenly felt dry, and for a moment she couldn't speak.

Zhou Qing shook his head and said, "That's not fun anymore."

“A cultivator must first be true to himself. You regard me as a demon, yet you secretly gamble that I will be merciful. With such contradictory thoughts, your will cannot be as hard as iron. Such people cannot be my enemies.”

He ignored the disciples of Tingyue Lake and slowly rose into the air. This time, he did not transform into golden light, but instead, as in the past, used his slow, leisurely escape technique, like an old car, to fly towards the Western Continent.

Most of the seven treasures needed for the Heavenly Spirit Pill have been destroyed, so they are no longer of any use in the Central Continent.

……

Qingxu Taoist Palace.

Half-Buddha and the others worked all day to clean up the chaos in Qingxu Dao Palace. Ziyun looked at the floating island falling from the sky to the ground and couldn't help but feel a little sad.

The floating island is the symbol of Qingxu Dao Palace. When he first entered the sect, the island was already floating in the air, as if it would never fall, just like the lofty status of Qingxu Dao Palace.

From the very beginning, all the disciples of Qingxu Daogong regarded themselves as beings living in the heavens.

All monks can fly into the sky, but only they live in the sky.

These are different concepts.

This experience gave the disciples of Qingxu Daogong a natural sense of pride.

But now, this floating island that would never fall has crashed to the ground, along with the majestic image of Qingxu Dao Palace.

The entire floating island was shrouded in an extremely oppressive atmosphere throughout the day.

Half-Moon Maitreya could sense the hatred brewing in this extreme atmosphere, but he knew that this hatred was destined to bear no fruit.

"Is there any news about Zhou Qing?"

Ziyun asked.

Half-Buddha nodded and said, "Brother Da Cong sent me a message that Zhou Qing arrived at Dajue Temple at 3:45 PM yesterday."

Ziyun asked, "Yesterday at three-quarters past noon?"

"He should have been at Qingxu Taoist Palace at that time."

Half-Buddha said helplessly, "To be precise, he left Qingxu Dao Palace at the second quarter of the hour of Wei. Fellow Daoist Ziyun was worried about the palace and may not have paid attention to the time."

Ziyun, Dao Yi Sword Immortal, and Moonlight Immortal were all greatly surprised and said, "How could such a thing happen, traveling from Qingxu Dao Palace to Dajue Zen Temple in just one hour!"

Half-Buddha said, "That is the truth."

"With such a way of escaping, he is no longer someone we can deal with. We probably have no choice but to accept living with him for a long time."

Moonlight Immortal and Dao Yi unconsciously looked at Zi Yun and saw that his face was ashen. Due to intense resentment and anger, Zi Yun's body trembled slightly, and his Dharma body aura overflowed, disturbing the spiritual energy within a radius of dozens of miles. A dangerous aura of impending storm was constantly rising.

Dao Yi Sword Immortal asked, "I wonder if Brother Lu is capable of killing him?"

Ziyun said, "Our ancestor has the Azure Frost Sword, which we can try." Half-Buddha shook his head and said, "The Azure Frost Sword has the residual aura of a true immortal, which can break through the limits of escape techniques. If a true immortal were to wield it, it would not be difficult to kill him, but right now it probably still cannot match his speed."

"We must prepare for the worst. With such a powerful enemy, if we disperse and act independently, he might seize the opportunity. Although he is not strong enough to threaten the Nascent Soul stage, it is inevitable that he will take advantage of us."

"He is now the ruler of the Western Continent, and he cannot help but consider the cultivators of the Western Continent. If he repeatedly invades the Central Continent, plunders many spiritual herbs from the Central Continent, and creates many Nascent Soul True Monarchs in the Western Continent, it will be troublesome if the balance of power shifts over time."

Especially now that the path to Nascent Soul has been severed, one day the Nascent Soul stage will be the pinnacle of this world. When that time comes, the strength of the Western Continent will surpass that of the Central Continent. It remains to be seen whether their sects will still be able to occupy this most fertile land.

Dao Yi asked, "Fellow Daoist, do you have any suggestions?"

Half-Buddha said, "I propose that the four of us use our supernatural powers to relocate our respective earth veins and merge the four of us into one place."

"With four families living side by side and ten Nascent Soul cultivators residing together, Zhou Qing can no longer afford to be complacent if he wants to gain an advantage."

"In addition, we also need to blockade the Western Continent. All the spiritual medicines produced in the Central Continent shall be controlled by our four families and shall not be allowed to circulate to the Western Continent."

“West Antarctica is already barren, and without the support of Central Antarctica, their path of cultivation would be impossible to continue.”

"Zhou Qing, as the ruler of the Western Continent, has failed to make the Western Continent prosperous. Instead, the Western Continent has declined. Although he is powerful and others dare not oppose him, they will inevitably have grievances in their hearts."

"Their internal discord is our opportunity."

After thinking for a while, the three said, "That's the only way."

Half-Buddha said again, "The most important thing is that we must be prepared. The confrontation with Zhou Qing will not be decided overnight. We may have to spend hundreds of years slowly trapping him to death."

"It's like draining the ocean, causing a giant whale to die."

To deal with an enemy as formidable as Zhou Qing, the only option is to employ a trapping tactic.

……

After leaving Tingyue Lake, Zhou Qing did not rush back to Xijizhou.

He wasn't worried that the people from the Four Great Dao Palaces would take advantage of his absence to threaten the people of Western Polaria.

The current situation is clear: I am the one who has the greatest mobility.

He couldn't do anything to those Nascent Soul level experts, but if he wanted to kill someone below the Nascent Soul level, even those Nascent Soul level experts couldn't stop him.

The Nascent Soul cultivators of the Four Great Dao Palaces are all intelligent people; how could they possibly start a murder game with him?

As Zhou Qing leisurely made his way along, appreciating the magnificent scenery of Zhongzhou, he also checked the gains he had made on this trip.

The biggest gain was, of course, the Golden Light Escape Technique. The significance of this technique was no less than any of his other skills.

Besides these, there are the Meat Fungus and the Trumpet Creeper. Although they cannot be used to refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill, these two are spiritual treasures in themselves, and they have many other uses as well.

For example, the blood of the Flesh Fungus can greatly prolong life. If he cannot find a way to leave Qionghua Continent and his cultivation level cannot break through to the Nascent Soul stage, he will probably have to rely on the Flesh Fungus in the end.

Of course, if it comes to that point, then I would consider myself a failure.

In addition, another gain surprised Zhou Qing.

He introduced a large amount of spiritual energy from the Qingxu Dao Palace into the Dao Heart World. He thought that the spiritual energy would fill the air in the Dao Heart World. However, when he entered the Dao Heart World to check, he found that the concentration of spiritual energy in the air was very thin, which was completely inconsistent with the spiritual energy he introduced.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that the spiritual energy he had introduced had actually merged with the land of the Dao Heart World.
