Chapter 92 Pulling the Flag
The golden skin and jade bones pill, the heart-melting and spirit-raising pill.

These are two third-level elixirs that Zhang Wei bought at a huge price from Master Zifu introduced by Qun Yao.

There are nine pills in one bottle, three bottles in each batch, and the six bottles of pills almost cost Zhang Wei all the savings he had accumulated over the years. The total value of the treasures is nearly four hundred thousand taels of gold!

One pill costs several thousand taels of gold, which is almost the price of a second-grade top-grade magic weapon. And this is the discounted price that Master Zifu offered for Qun Yao's sake!

The Golden Muscle and Jade Bone Pill is one of the few pills specially developed for physical cultivators. Taking it can temper one's muscles into golden muscles and jade bones, greatly improving the user's physical fitness and efficiency in absorbing spiritual energy.

The effect of the Rongxin Shengling Pill is relatively simple. It is an advanced version of the daily auxiliary cultivation pill, but the effect is dozens of times stronger than the second-level one, which is just suitable for Zhang Wei now.

Zhang Wei threw all the stored spirit stones worth more than 100,000 taels into the meditation room. He also set up a spirit gathering array in the room to draw the spiritual power of the spirit stones to increase the concentration of spiritual energy in the room.

He didn't want to fail due to lack of spiritual energy during the breakthrough, that would be a huge loss.

After taking Golden Muscle and Jade Bone and Melting Heart and Ascending Spirit successively, Zhang Wei immediately entered the state of cultivation. Thanks to the spirit gathering array paved with a large number of spirit stones, the concentration of spiritual energy in the quiet room soon increased to the level of the second-order spirit vein.

At this moment, Zhang Wei was firing on all cylinders, with all sixty-seven acupoints opened at once. He madly devoured the spiritual energy in the quiet room to flush the acupoints!

Just like that, three years passed quietly.

boom!
A loud roar sounded from the quiet room, and then the door burst open. A figure rushed out of the quiet room at an incredible speed and arrived at the courtyard of the cave in the blink of an eye.

Looking up at the stars in the sky, Zhang Wei slowly stretched out his hand to grab the sky, with blue-purple electric light in his eyes. It was obvious that his spiritual power had reached a new level!
Along with a roar of thunder and lightning, blue and purple thunder stars began to gradually light up on his body surface.

Stars are densely spread all over his body. If you count carefully, you will find that the total number of spiritual orifices opened in his body has reached seventy-three!
Late stage of foundation building, success!

After three full years and consuming a lot of resources, he finally broke through the last five orifices and successfully entered the late stage of foundation building! His life span was extended by another half a century, reaching 240 years!

And Zhang Wei is not even sixty years old this year!
Feeling the tremendous power and vigorous vitality in his body, Zhang Wei thought to himself: "I have been away from home for thirteen years and have broken through fifteen acupoints. If I continue like this, when I return home to attend my brother's centenary birthday, I might be able to try to break through the Purple Palace."

Although it is said that it becomes more difficult to break through as one progresses in cultivation and more resources are required, it is always good to have dreams.

Just as Zhang Wei was adjusting to this newfound power, the cave's restriction suddenly sounded. Zhang Wei opened the door and saw that it was Gu Man who came to visit after noticing Zhang Wei coming out of seclusion.

Gu Man looked at Zhang Wei with envy, his aura was much stronger than before, and congratulated him: "Congratulations to Brother Zhang for breaking through the late stage of foundation building! From now on, I have to call you senior."

Zhang Wei sneered when he heard this: "Brother Gu, please stop laughing at me."

Then Zhang Wei saw a girl less than 1.6 meters tall following behind Gu Man.

The person looks very young, seems young, and is also very beautiful. And most importantly, this person is actually a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building!
Zhang Wei saw that the girl was unfamiliar, so he asked, "Is this... your daughter?"

Gu Man rolled her eyes and said, "When did I have a daughter who had established her foundation?"

Then he stepped aside, revealing the girl behind him, and proudly introduced her, "Miao Ling, my Taoist partner!"

At this time, Miao Ling also greeted him coquettishly and said, "My name is Miao Ling, and I am honored to meet Senior Zhang. My husband is also very grateful to you for taking care of him."

Zhang Wei: “?”

Zhang Wei looked at Miao Ling, who looked like a little girl, in disbelief, then turned his head to look at Gu Man, who had an untidy beard and looked like a middle-aged uncle.

Then Zhang Wei sighed: "You can't judge a person by his appearance. Brother Gu, I didn't expect you to be such a person!"

How many wives did you say you would marry? Instead you found a loli!
"What kind of person am I?"

Gu Man said dissatisfiedly: "Aren't Miao Ling and I a perfect match?"

Zhang Wei: “Hehe…”

After listening to Gu Man's story, Zhang Wei learned that the two had known each other for more than ten years and were both independent cultivators who had managed to establish a foundation in the Jiexian Mountains.

They were also tired of the precarious life and wanted to retire and go home to enjoy their old age, so they hit it off and decided to live together.

Zhang Wei had nothing to criticize about the two's ideas.

Everyone has his or her own ambitions.

We cannot deny this just because the other party does not want to pursue immortality.

How many so-called powerful people in the universe have lived for countless epochs, but in the end, they are not as knowledgeable as a pig?
Moreover, some people who practice Taoism do not necessarily seek immortality.

"I see. Come to think of it, I haven't been to your wedding in the past two years of seclusion, and I haven't had time to give you the gift money."

Zhang Wei sighed as he rummaged through his mustard seed bag, took out a scroll and said, "I don't have anything good here, so I'll give you a second-level first-grade magic weapon as a gift."

When Gu Man and Miao Ling heard Zhang Wei raise his hand and give out a second-grade primary magic weapon, they were immediately shocked.

Is this the courage of a weapon refiner? A second-level first-grade magic weapon is worth thousands of taels of gold, but he took it out as a gift without even blinking an eye?

Gu Man refused: "How can this be possible! This is too expensive!"

Zhang Wei smiled and said, "It's okay, take it. I just broke through to the late stage of foundation building, and I'm in a good mood. You're the only friend I know in Yulongfang, and you have a Taoist partner, so it's a double happiness. Just share the joy."

Gu Man and Miao Ling looked at each other, and then Gu Man bowed and thanked, "Then I will shamelessly accept it on behalf of my wife."

Miao Ling also expressed gratitude: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Zhang!"

Seeing that the other party accepted it, Zhang Wei nodded with satisfaction, and then asked: "By the way, Brother Gu, when do you plan to leave Jiexian Mountains? Have you found a way out? If not, I can find a good way out for you, Brother Gu!"

Of course, Zhang Wei would not give Gu Man and Miao Ling a second-grade primary magic weapon just because he had too many treasures and didn't know where to put them. His real target was still Gu Man and the other person.

One is in the middle stage of foundation building, and the other is in the early stage of foundation building. Go to any small country, as long as you occupy another spiritual vein, you can easily pull up a cultivation family.

However, most of the inland spiritual veins have owners. Although these two people are quite powerful, they are still unable to establish a family. Therefore, it is normal for them to join a sect as worshippers.

Since you are joining a force to serve as a worshiper, why can't you go to their Zhang family?
Who would complain about having too much high-end combat power?
Anyway, his family has a second-level spiritual vein, and can even afford to support a Purple Mansion master, let alone two foundation-building cultivators. By that time, with four foundation-building cultivators in his family, even the Yunshang Sect will have to think twice if it wants to take action against the Zhang family.

It just so happened that he knew Gu Man well, so he could recruit her.

After hearing what Zhang Wei meant, Gu Man and Miao Ling's eyes lit up, and they did not suspect that Zhang Wei was lying to them.

With Zhang Wei's huge wealth, people would not even look down on these little things of theirs. The only thing that was valuable enough to attract Zhang Wei was their cultivation.

Gu Man said, "Hey, originally my husband and I planned to earn enough money for retirement and then go back to our hometown to get married. But Xiaofan, you have provided a better option, so let's go to Chen Country and take a look."

Gu Man looked at Miao Ling, who nodded and agreed to Gu Man's plan. Then Gu Man seemed to have thought of something and said to Zhang Wei, "But Xiaofan, I have promised Fellow Daoist Qun that I will accompany her to finish this last job, so we can't go to Chen Country immediately. Let's wait until we finish this matter before going."

Zhang Wei was stunned, and keenly heard something extraordinary from Gu Man's words just now.

Last vote, go home and get married...

So he asked, "What's the last vote?"

Gu Man explained, "Fairy Qun Yao got a treasure map, which records a cave left by Master Zifu. Moreover, the cave is located on a spiritual vein and has not been opened for hundreds of years. It is estimated that there will be many treasures. Fellow Daoist Qun is short of manpower, so he invited me to help."

Zhang Wei: "..."

Oh my god, all the elements are complete!

Zhang Wei said, "I feel like you have flags all over your body, Brother Gu."

Gu Man asked in confusion: "Flag? What flag? I have a red dragon flag that has been with me for decades."

Zhang Wei thought about it and advised: "Friend Gu, listen to my advice, don't participate in this job, the risk factor is too high."

Gu Man sneered and said, "What's the danger? Fellow Daoist Qun Yao is a true disciple of Yulong. The information she got can't be false, right?"

Seeing that Gu Man insisted, Zhang Wei stopped trying to persuade her. After all, even he was just making subjective guesses. Who could guarantee that his guess was accurate?

I just hope my guess is wrong.

However, just two days later, when Zhang Wei was consolidating his cultivation in the late stage of foundation building, an unexpected person took the initiative to visit him.

"Friend in skirt?"

Zhang Wei looked up in surprise and looked at Qun Yao who was standing at his door.

Qun Yao greeted him and said, "Congratulations to Brother Zhang for coming out of retreat and breaking through to the late stage of foundation building. Your cultivation has reached a new level."

Zhang Wei welcomed Qun Yao into the cave and said politely, "It's been two years since we last met. Fairy Qun Yao's cultivation has improved a lot. I guess it won't be long before you can try to visualize the Great Dao and enter the Purple Mansion, right?"

Qun Yao shook her head and said, "Advancing to the Purple Mansion is a matter of great importance, and we must prepare well. Even we must be cautious and careful."

Zhang Wei understood that the state of unity of man and nature that one experiences when building the foundation and advancing to the Purple Mansion is not something that one can enter whenever one wants. Most people only have the opportunity to do so in the split second after all the acupoints of the Zhoutian acupoints are opened. If one cannot imprint the true picture of the Great Dao that one has seen in one's soul at this split second, it will be almost impossible for one to enter the state of unity of man and nature in the future, and one will have no chance to reach the Purple Mansion realm.

Throughout history, there have been many cultivators at the peak of the foundation-building stage who, after opening all their acupoints, were unable to reach the Purple Palace due to various accidents, or because they were not qualified enough to memorize the true diagram of the Dao.

"How are your injuries?"

Qun Yao said gratefully: "I am almost recovered. Thank you for your Tiger Roaring Forest Map during this period. If it were not for its protection, I would have fallen far behind others."

"You pay the money, and I do the work."

Zhang Wei said calmly, and then seeing that Qun Yao seemed to be hesitant to speak, he asked, "May I ask why you came here this time, Daoist Fellow Qun? Do you have another magic weapon that you want me to refine?"

Qun Yao shook her head and said, "That's not the case. It's mainly because I heard from Daoist Gu that you told me to be careful, so I came to ask you if you know anything."

"Lao Gu..."

Zhang Wei was secretly complaining in his heart, but he didn't expect that Lao Gu didn't listen to him himself, but instead relayed his words to Qun Yao.

However, Zhang Wei also knew that Gu Man was just speaking well of him and Qun Yao to help him maintain the relationship between them.

He simply went along with it and said, "Fellow Daoist Qun, is your treasure map of the Purple Mansion Cave Mansion real?"

Qun Yao said as a matter of course: "Of course it is real, this was given to me by a good friend of mine in the sect, how could it be fake?"

Gift from a friend?

Zhang Wei's eyes turned sharp and he asked, "Is your good friend going?"

Qun Yao said: "She has something to do and needs to go to Yulong Pass to guard it, so she naturally can't come. Otherwise, she wouldn't have given me the treasure map and asked me to see if there is the golden branch and jade leaf grass she needs in it."

He gave the treasure map as a gift but didn't go there himself. This is becoming more and more suspicious.

Zhang Wei asked again: "Have you ever sent anyone to look at this treasure trove?"

"Isn't that what you're planning to do?"

Qun Yao said, "It's not far behind Liangjie Mountain. It's relatively safe."

Two Worlds Mountain?
Zhang Wei thought of the divine mark he found in the essence of the golden tiger beast when he was refining the Tiger Roaring in the Mountains diagram for Qun Yao.

"And then take the risk yourself?"

Zhang Wei sneered, "We always have to be cautious when it comes to these so-called caves and treasures that have never been discovered, because no one knows if there are some old monsters hiding inside, waiting for the right person to take over their body or something."

Qun Yao sneered and said, "Possessing a body is something that only a Jindan Zhenren can do. Otherwise, even if Master Zifu has unparalleled spiritual power, he can only control another person's body by force."

"What if?"

Zhang Wei asked back: "Even if it's not a possession, it could be a trap. Don't forget, you killed the youngest son of the great demon Yi Ming. How could he let you go so easily?"

Qun Yao was startled, then said in disbelief: "You mean..."

Zhang Wei paused and said, "I just doubt it."

Without evidence in hand, no matter how perfect the logic of suspicion is, it is just a conspiracy theory. He can only give a warning.

Qun Yao frowned, lowered her head and thought for a while, then sighed: "Thank you, Brother Zhang, I will do a more detailed investigation on this matter."

After saying that, Qun Yao summoned a black sword and stepped on it, then her whole body turned into a black light and left Zhang Wei's cave.

Zhang Wei looked at Qun Yao's back as she left on the sword and was silent for a while.

He thought that it was possible that when Qun Yao took the initiative to visit her, she had already begun to doubt her friend in her heart.

The reason why he came to ask for my opinion was that he wanted to use my words to strengthen his own thoughts and make himself determined to investigate his friend.

"Alas... it's hard to find a Taoist companion."

Zhang Wei sighed for a few words, then closed the door of the cave and went back to his meditation.

Just two months after Qun Yao left, a piece of news suddenly spread throughout Yulongfang.

Unexpectedly, a traitor appeared in Yulong Mountain. He revealed the whereabouts of the sect's true teachings to the monsters behind Liangjie Mountain, allowing the big monsters to ambush and kill Yulong's true teachings in advance, thus cutting off Yulong Mountain's genius.

Fairy Qun Yao was very observant and saw through the conspiracy in advance, allowing Yulong Mountain to set up an ambush in advance. Although the main messenger, the great demon Yi Ming, was not captured in the end and one of the three late Purple Mansion demons who participated in the siege was seriously injured by him, the battle ended with the achievement of killing two Purple Mansion demons.

Fairy Qun Yao was also rewarded by the contemporary Jade Dragon Immortal of Yulong Mountain.

For a time, Fairy Qun Yao was the most popular, and the calls for her to become the Jade Dragon Taoist directly surpassed those for Jade Dragon, who had the highest level of cultivation.

After the matter was settled, Qun Yao immediately found Zhang Wei and expressed her gratitude in person.

Qun Yao used tea instead of wine and said respectfully, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, thank you very much!"

After saying that, Qun Yao drank the spiritual tea in one gulp.

Then he couldn't help but frowned.

This tea... is a bit bad. I'll send two kilograms of Yulongjing tea from before the rain to Fellow Daoist Zhang later.

Zhang Wei didn't see what Qun Yao was thinking, he just shook his head and smiled, "I just mentioned it casually, it doesn't mean anything."

"Friend Zhang, don't be modest!"

Qun Yao said solemnly: "If it weren't for you, I would never have thought that my friend would actually..."

As she said this, Qun Yao smiled bitterly and shook her head.

When she went to the Dragon Prison to meet her friend, she also questioned her why she colluded with the monster to murder her.

However, the other party's reason is also very simple.

Hey.

The other party was jealous that she was a descendant of Zifu, and could rely on the influence of her ancestors to quickly cultivate to the late stage of foundation building, and then become a true disciple, and also plan for the position of Daozi.

However, she had worked diligently at the bottom level for decades, competing with a group of outer disciples before she was lucky enough to get a spiritual essence to build her foundation. Even with the resources and training she got, she was far inferior to those of them.

The requirement for Yulong's true disciples is to achieve the late stage of foundation building before the age of 120, and most foundation building practitioners are considered geniuses if they can reach the middle stage of foundation building at the age of 120.

She couldn't win the fight, but then she got to know her anyway.

The gap after the comparison made this Jade Dragon Foundation Establishment Cultivator jealous and crazy, and then he went to extremes.

Zhang Wei remained silent after listening to this. He had seen a lot of such situations in his previous life. After all, the TV shows often showed the plot of a mistress cheating on her rich girl's best friend.

But I didn’t expect that I would encounter the real version today.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore."

Qun Yao shook her head, ended the topic, and took out a treasure box from her mustard bag and pushed it to Zhang Wei.

"Please accept this, Fellow Daoist Zhang."

Zhang Wei opened the box and saw a jade talisman lying quietly inside!
Zhang Wei was surprised when he saw this: "Third-level spiritual talisman?!"

Qun Yao introduced: "The Qianling Body Restraining Talisman has the effect of restraining the air. If it is used with full force, even a Purple Mansion Master will be affected."

nice one.

Once a cultivator loses his air superiority, he will be controlled by others in many situations. Even if you ask a Purple Mansion cultivator to run on the ground, no matter how fast he runs, he will not be able to outrun a foundation-building cultivator who is flying in the sky with magic weapons.

Combined with the Aurora Shadow Talisman and the third-rank Heavenly Spirit Sealing Sea Talisman obtained from Qun Yao, Zhang Wei has a certain chance of escaping even if he encounters Master Zifu's true form in the future!
"Then I'll shamelessly accept it."

Zhang Wei did not refuse. After all, his face was nothing and he had to throw it away when he encountered good things.

Seeing Zhang Wei accept it, Qun Yao also breathed a sigh of relief, and then took the opportunity to invite him: "Friend Zhang, I have an event here, I wonder if you are interested in participating?"

Zhang Wei subconsciously asked: "What activity?"

"Go after the second-ranked late-stage foundation-building demon cultivator, Jade Moon Fairy!"
