The Heavenly Court is gone, I don't want to be a True Lord.

Zuo Qi secretly wrote down the secret.

A thought suddenly struck me.

"Today's secret is quite good; in a way, it can be considered a lucky day. Let's see what blessings we can get with a thousand points of Heavenly Fortune!"

As your thoughts turn.

Zuo Qi's gaze rose.

Perhaps it was because he had enough Heavenly Fortune Points from this sacrifice, but his perspective was higher, and he could see more things below.

It felt as if the stars overhead were a little closer.

One of the stars in the field of vision was exceptionally bright!

It was a crimson star. Although he didn't see a physical form, Zuo Qi could still sense its intense malevolent aura.

Suddenly, my gaze returned to the present.

[Offering sacrifices to Heaven for a thousand points of fortune, receiving the radiant light of the Big Dipper - the favor of the Broken Army]

【Broken Army's Favor, Effect: The Big Dipper's Broken Army bestows blessings, and the Heavenly Eye receives three strands of Broken Army's Soldier's Aura. This consumes Qi and Blood. The Heavenly Eye can activate the Soldier's Aura. It can be used a maximum of three times per day (can be restored)】

Zuo Qi was startled, and his divine sense returned.

The Heavenly Eye has changed; its golden pupils seem to emanate divine power, with a hidden flow of dark, malevolent light, and it is also connected to the stars above.

The Soldier's Shadow?

Is this considered that the Heavenly Eye has evolved into a killing technique?

Why don't you try its power?

Zuo Qi thought to himself as he pushed open the door and went out.

The snow in the mountains is thick, and there is fog at night.

Zuo Qi walked briskly into a forest, and looking around, he could vaguely see white figures in the mist.

It's a mountain demon.

However, it's only been ten years since I started practicing.

"Soldier's Curse!"

Zuo Qi suddenly opened his third eye between his eyebrows, and a dark, malevolent light surged deep within his golden pupil, as if concealing a divine weapon.

With a low shout, a dark golden light burst forth, as thin as a hair, yet faster than sight could be!

The mountain demon in the mist didn't even have time to scream.

puff!

The mysterious light pierced through its skull!

There was no blood in the wound, only a charred cross-shaped burn mark. A flash of black and gold starlight appeared, and the mountain demon disappeared without a sound.

Such formidable killing power.

A wisp of military aura can easily eliminate two-tiered demons, and it also has a restraining effect on demons.

The combined power of the two military forces doubled, and the three strands need no further explanation.

There are also drawbacks. This supernatural power can only be used once a day. After the three beams of divine light are emitted, it is necessary to wait until night, when the Heavenly Eye connects with the Yao Guang Star, and then receive the power of the Soldier's Fiend.

Moreover, each time the divine light is unleashed, it consumes qi and blood and physical strength. One beam of the Soldier's Fiend Profound Light consumed ten of Zuo Qi's refined blood and qi. If the three lights appear at the same time, the qi and blood in his body may be completely exhausted.

Zuo Qi was quite satisfied with this blessing; it was a trump card he could keep hidden away.

Even if you encounter some new monsters who don't know the rules in the future, you don't need to worry about failing because you don't understand them.

……

The next day.

Snow is falling at the foot of the mountain.

Looking around, there was no sign of life; the world was a vast expanse of white.

Zuo Qi took the snake meat from the stove, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully. The effects of the Tongluo Xuanlian lotus seeds were not only reflected in cultivation, but also improved the efficiency of absorbing food energy.

A pleasant fragrance gradually filled the room, and the three people and the dog gathered around the stove to eat meat.

"The weather should clear up by the afternoon. After the heavy snow, there will definitely be thick fog. Tonight, let's wander around the garrisons to prevent mountain demons from coming down and harming people."

Zuo Qi said softly.

Using the energy from the dried snake meat, Zuo Qi got up, performed a set of dynamic stance exercises from the Golden Easy Kung Fu, and then practiced the Thirty-Eight Forms of the Ice Sea Fist Seal once more.

As the heat circulates within the body, every bit of vital energy is squeezed out from the food consumed.

Threads of qi and blood converge and flow into the surging, coarse qi and blood within the body.

Her skin was slightly flushed and radiated an astonishing amount of heat.

As the exercise concluded, one would sit cross-legged in meditation, allowing the body's Qi and blood to circulate throughout the body, with white vapor gushing out from the mouth and nose, churning endlessly.

Since entering the mountain, his progress has been nothing short of miraculous. He has completed nearly 40% of the tempering of his five internal organs and condensed 67 streams of qi and blood. His combat strength has more than doubled compared to before entering the mountain.

Relying on the mysterious light of the weapon, he was confident that he could exchange a few blows with some fourth-level masters.

Of course, if it weren't for a sneak attack, they would win more often than they would lose.

The petals of the Mystic Lotus have not yet been refined. I plan to use them as a trump card to replenish my qi and blood and accelerate the process of changing my cultivation when I dissipate my power and start over.

"If Shang Yingying were to send me the 'Twelve Jade Towers' technique, allowing me to rebuild my strength, my power would undoubtedly increase significantly, and I might even be able to put up a fight against the Fourth Master."

The evaluation of martial arts skills has its own rules. Yellow-level skills can strengthen qi and blood, and reduce the loss of qi and blood by less than 70%.

Mysterious methods can condense extraordinary power, and the qi and blood possess mysterious power, sublimating the loss of qi and blood to less than 50%.

Besides its extraordinary power, the Earth Classic also allows one to cultivate by absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, and the loss of vital energy and blood is reduced to less than 30%.

The Heavenly Treasury rarely appears. Besides being able to absorb the essence of heaven and earth and nourish extraordinary power and blood, it has other mysteries, and each Heavenly Treasury's fundamental method has its own unique mysteries.

There are even rumors that the Heavenly Treasury-level Fundamental Method can help people condense their life bones, but it is unknown whether this is true or not.

It's unclear how far Shang Yingying's actions have progressed, or whether she has successfully joined the Six Doors.

Thinking to himself, he put on his cloak and went outside.

There's a thick fog tonight; hopefully, some mountain demons at the third level of cultivation will appear.

It's still faster to improve your cultivation by refining the essence of demons.

……

at the same time.

In the dead of winter, the Liang River, which flows slowly, freezes over near both banks. Nowadays, the boats on the river are all large vessels over 15 meters long, with ice-cracking hammers on their bows.

Shang Yingying stood at the bow of the boat, looking helplessly at Yao Zhiyue standing beside her.

She came to Fushan City to deliver the cultivation technique to Zuo Qi, but since it involved the transaction of the True Luo Vertical and Horizontal Technique and the Five Luo Supreme Lord Divine Tablet, Yao Zhiyue wanted to come along, and she couldn't refuse.

After all, the successful operation to obtain the first three levels of the "Jade Tower Twelve Levels" from the Six Doors was thanks to the Flying Sword Sect.

"Yingying, tell me the truth, what's really going on with that Zuo Qi?"

This question inquires about both character and martial arts aptitude.

Shang Yingying fell silent. To be honest, she had only met Zuo Qi once. But ever since Zuo Qi destroyed the demon's lair that day, he was willing to let her leave just because she had given him a word of advice in the lair. She thought he was a good person.

"His martial arts talent must be extraordinary. He is no more than twenty years old and has at least the combat strength of a third-level cultivator."

Upon hearing this, Yao Zhiyue frowned and asked, "A member of a prominent family?"

Then he murmured, "It seems there is no Zuo family in Fushan City."

He remained silent for a long time, as if deep in thought.

"Yingying, I've discussed this with your senior uncle. The True Luo Strategist Technique is not passed on to a useless person. You said he has the combat strength of a third-level cultivator, and I believe you, but he needs to demonstrate the strength that convinces me. Wang Zheng of the Wang family has always been interested in you, you..."

Yao Zhiyue lowered her voice slightly.

Shang Yingying remained silent, seemingly weighing her options.

……

Deep in Fushan.

The land was covered in ice and snow, and no birds or beasts remained.

But with a strange yelp, a small deer with tricolor markings on its body seemed startled and leaped up from the snow, shooting off dozens of meters like a streak of light.

Then the silent snowfield became chaotic.

Footsteps followed one after another, and then a group of ragged figures ran out from a valley, looking in the direction the tricolor deer had run.

These people's clothes were very worn, as if they had been worn for many years, with many patches. Some clothes that could not be patched were made of animal skin and leaves.

These days it's cold, and these clothes aren't enough to keep warm. Everyone looks bulky and like wild men.

Left with no other choice, they had to return to the valley.

Seeing everyone return empty-handed, the man sitting in the head seat couldn't help but curse, "A bunch of useless trash! Such a fine treasure beast was delivered right to our door, and you managed to let it run away. What are you all good for?"

The others glanced cautiously at this disciple of the cult leader, and no one dared to speak.

The sect leader has not yet returned from his travels. As one of the Four Desire Masters, all the desire demons listen to him. They also rely on desire demons to practice their skills, so naturally they dare not disobey him.
