The Way of the Immortal Master

Meng Zhang, who returned to the main hall of the sect, began to sort out his harvest.

Nearly twenty ghosts provided him with a lot of valuable knowledge, including many aspects of the arts of cultivation.

The last two soldiers provided Meng Zhang with two very practical skills.

A skill is about how to use the power of the soul to extract soul power.

For the soul, the soul power is like the real energy possessed by the body of a cultivator.

The soul absorbs the yin energy of the underworld and refines the soul power.

Soul power can condense Yin Qi and condense various weapons and armors for use by the spirit.

Soul power can also drive Yin Qi and cast ghost-specific spells—soul spells.

Another skill is a very simple soul art - pathfinding.

The rules of heaven and earth in the underworld are very different from those in the yang world, and it is difficult to cast spells in the yang world in the underworld.

Meng Zhang is also a cultivator in the mid-stage of Qi refining, but he fell into the underworld, not only playing with bare-handed fighting, but he couldn't even tell the direction, and he didn't look like a cultivator at all.

Now, Meng Zhang, who has mastered two practical skills, initially has the power to survive in the underworld.

For the rest of the night, Meng Zhang took a good rest.

The next morning, Meng Zhang, who finished his morning class, recorded all his knowledge and put the recorded book in the Sutra Pavilion.

In the morning, Meng Zhang and Tian Zhen continued to domesticate the three chasing horses, and practiced their riding skills by the way.

In the afternoon, Meng Zhang and Tian Zhen went to Lingtian to help.

The Taiyi Sect has lost so many people at once. The advantage is that the burden on the spiritual veins is less, and the remaining people can absorb more abundant spiritual energy.

The disadvantage is that there are fewer people, but there are no fewer things. Especially Taiyimen's biggest source of income - the 19 mu of Lingtian, needs to be carefully managed and cared for.

Fortunately, the heavy work of plowing the land and sowing the seeds has long been done, leaving only the lighter daily maintenance work.

By the time the spiritual field is harvested, the people from the Taiyi Sect will be overwhelmed.

Tian Zhen also thought about Meng Zhang's suggestion, should he recruit a few casual cultivators to supplement the Taiyimen's manpower.

For a long time, Taiyi Sect has been relatively conservative in recruiting casual cultivators.

The main reason is that Taiyi Sect is a small sect with too few people. If a large number of entry-level casual cultivators are recruited, they will be dominated by anti-clients and occupy the dove's nest.

Meng Zhang, who has experienced the betrayal of Zhenling Laodao, has no confidence in the loyalty of casual cultivators.

Even those casual cultivators with a good reputation on weekdays may not be reliable when it comes to critical moments.

Of course, if the Taiyi Sect wants to grow stronger, it must have more disciples.

If only relying on the mortal villages and towns under the Taiyi Sect to provide disciples, the speed would be too slow.

Although he didn't agree with Tian Zhen's proposal on the spot, Meng Zhang still took the matter of recruiting manpower to heart.

At night, Meng Zhang entered the trial ground again.

This time, Meng Zhang was not in a hurry to hunt ghosts. Instead, it started to operate the soul, absorb the ubiquitous Yin Qi in the underworld, and refine the soul power.

Meng Zhang's understanding is very high, and he mastered this skill in a few strokes.

Although supplemented by ghosts, Meng Zhang's current spirit strength is still very limited, and there is not much soul power that can be accommodated.

Soul power is not enough, skills come to make up.

Using soul power to condense Yin Qi, a long knife was condensed.

After mastering the long knife in his hand, Meng Zhang embarked on a hunting trip.

Meng Zhang, whose strength has greatly increased, killed ghosts, and it was like chopping melons and vegetables. Even if there are a large number of ghosts, he dares to rush up and kill them.

In the past, Meng Zhang's soul was like a mortal, who could only use brute force to fight.

Now, after being able to use the soul power, the soul is like a cultivator, and the means that can be used have become richer.

That night, Meng Zhang almost beheaded hundreds of ghosts before he was forced to leave the trial ground.

After the soul returned to its original position and returned to the physical body, the amount of information that flooded into the mind was simply too much.

The strength of the soul has been greatly improved, and Meng Zhang has a clear feeling.

After the spirit power was extracted from the soul, shortly after returning to the body, there was a gust of cold aura gushing out from the soul and spreading to the body.

The yin qi in the underworld is essential to ghosts, just like living people need air, and it is a great tonic.

But for living people, Yin Qi is very harmful.

Ordinary people, if they are accidentally infected with Yin Qi, will get seriously ill at least, and even die at worst.

Even a cultivator, if he is contaminated by Yin Qi for a long time, his body will become ossified and his vitality will gradually lose.

The yin energy absorbed by Meng Zhang's soul from the underworld directly contaminated his body after his soul returned to his body.

Meng Zhang didn't dare to be careless, and quickly circulated his true qi to drive away these yin qi.

Fortunately, the Shaoyang True Qi he cultivated was originally formed by absorbing the Yang and Harmonious Qi of Chaoyang and tempering it repeatedly.

As soon as the masculine and fiery Shaoyang zhenqi started to circulate, the yin qi stained on the body, like snow under the sun, quickly melted away.

After getting rid of Yin Qi, Meng Zhang also began to reflect.

The exercises practiced by ghosts in the underworld are not suitable for living people to practice.

Ghosts do not have a physical body, so of course there is no need to worry about Yin Qi contaminating the physical body.

But I am a living person, after the soul returns to the body, I have to consider the problem of Yin Qi infection.

Now my soul is not strong enough, I don't absorb much Yin Qi, and the Shaoyang Qigong I practiced happens to be the nemesis of Yin Qi. In a short time, there should be no problem.

But in the long run, I should find a cure.

Of course, Meng Zhang's top priority right now is to get enough benefits from the place of trial, and he can't take care of future troubles for the time being.

During the day, Meng Zhang increased the time for practicing Shaoyang Qigong, and repeatedly used Shaoyang Qigong to wash and clean his body in the sun, so as to completely avoid the harm of Yin Qi.

At night, Meng Zhang continued to enter the trial ground.

He found that with the increase in the strength of his soul, the time he stayed in the trial ground each time was also slowly increasing.

Meng Zhang, who has mastered the wayfinding technique, can identify the direction in the underworld, so he doesn't have to worry about getting lost.

He didn't run around, but centered on the place where he appeared, and slowly cleaned up the surrounding ghosts.

As his strength increased, these ghosts became less and less of a threat to him, completely becoming his prey.

In the process of cleaning up the ghosts, he occasionally encountered those soldiers.

Meng Zhang already knew at this time that these soldiers were Yin soldiers from the underworld, and they were much better than ghosts in terms of their own strength and organization.

Compared with ghosts like mobs, Yin soldiers are obviously more difficult to deal with.

But hunting Yin soldiers is more beneficial to the soul, and it can gain skills.

Even if hunting Yin soldiers is very dangerous, it can't stop Meng Zhang's enthusiasm.
