Lingzhang

Chapter 189: Subjugating the Body and Mind
“The leader is in the state capital, right?
How does he view such a big thing? "

The person who said this was Gu Qinghan, who was standing nearby and watching the entire process from beginning to end.

Luo Zhaoqing treated Xu Shijin like a piece of trash.

He was born into the Luo family in the provincial capital, so naturally he had a certain indescribable contempt for people like Xu Shijin who came from a small place and could barely be considered a noble family.

Furthermore, Xu Shijin’s identity is more like a traitor to the Xu family than an identity of someone who surrendered halfway.

He already considered himself a disciple of the Holy Church.

But in Luo Zhaoqing's eyes, he probably never regarded him as his own.

This contempt was not only reflected in his words, but also in his actions.

From the beginning to the end, Luo Zhaoqing only had a few words of exchange with Mr. Zeng, and then he decided the matter on his own.

Has Luo Zhaoqing really forgotten the pain after his wound healed?

Does he really think that such a method is enough to surely kill Yue Hanzhang?

This is very unrealistic.

Once upon a time, the suffocating atmosphere brought to them by Yue Hanzhang's evil talent still made Luo Zhaoqing unforgettable.

Not to mention the possible secret protection provided by the Jiang and Tian families.

Perhaps the possibility of failure is very high.

Even Luo Zhaoqing himself thought so.

But when I think about the fact that it was Xu Shijin who sacrificed himself for this.

Compared with the possible gains from this attempt, Luo Zhaoqing suddenly felt that the tiny price of Xu Shijin's life was completely acceptable.

This is what Luo Zhaoqing thought, but not everyone could accept what he did.

The saints who have returned to life probably experienced more blood and gore in their previous lives, and the indifference in their nature allows them to ignore such things.

Just now, the old man in black robe had already questioned, showing his disapproval.

Even Zhu Tingxiu, who was sitting in a wheelchair nearby, showed an expression that was unclear whether it was sarcasm or ridicule.

He seemed to "see" the extremely sordid side of the aristocratic families being played out among the so-called disciples of the Holy Religion, and then he came to the realization that "you guys are just like that, even though you brag so much on weekdays."

It's just compared to Mr. Zeng's easy persuasion and the silence of others.

The person who found it most difficult to accept this matter was actually Gu Qinghan.

After she came to the provincial capital, she rarely dealt with Luo Zhaoqing.

If it wasn't for the Minghong Zhang family's instruments and equipment, she wouldn't be here to witness the whole incident.

It can't be said that they are comrades-in-arms, but for Xu Shijin, who once escaped from the base city with her and planned the first resurrection of the thirty-three saints with her.

The same experience made her realize one thing very clearly - that what happened today might also happen to her.

Before I joined the Holy Religion, I was a “worn shoe”. After I joined the Holy Religion, am I still a “worn shoe”?
Then isn't this teaching a waste of money? !
So, even though he knew it was best not to say anything at this moment, after a moment of hesitation, Gu Qinghan still spoke coldly and said these words.

Luo Zhaoqing's reaction will determine how Gu Qinghan will conduct himself in the Holy Church in the future.

Perhaps, I should leave myself another way out...

While thinking about this.

On the side, Luo Zhaoqing still waved his hand indifferently.

He could probably understand Gu Qinghan's thoughts, but Luo Zhaoqing showed his consistent indifference towards these "scraps" in the great cause of the Holy Religion.

"No! You're wrong!
Starting a whole new path of cultivation is definitely a big deal.

But it's just that a disciple of a religion is about to take a little risk for the cause of the holy religion.

It’s not a big deal, not even a thing!
The leader has to have the final say on everything. What do you regard the leader as?

I don't talk about sacrifice or dedication, but this is how I react when faced with difficulties. Could it be that the atmosphere in Jichuan County has become so bad?
Not to mention anything else, just for Yue Hanzhang alone, in order to strangle him in the cradle, how many saints have died before!

They don't even have a chance to come back to life again!

Whose sacrifice is not a sacrifice?
I can understand that you probably have some kind of comradeship working together.

So I am patiently telling you these things.

I will not rashly push him directly into the fire pit, and I will even give him enough time to adapt to his body that has mastered the source of supernatural powers.

But if you still have any opinions, don't come and question me, and don't ask me to ask the leader what he thinks. He is in the state capital, and I can personally send you to see him!"

When I heard this.

Lying there, Gu Qinghan half lowered his head, his eyelids drooping slightly.

This was the expression she often showed when she followed Zhu Tingmo in the past.

In fact, this expression has become a mask that she has worn for years.

In this way, only a slight change in expression can give people a gentle and docile posture, but in fact, the shadow on the face can well conceal the real emotion.

Using this technique has almost become an instinct for Gu Qinghan.

Now, she puts the mask on her face again.

"No, I have no objection."

You know, this is a technique that can be used to deal with a madman like Zhu Tingmo.

At this moment, all of Gu Qinghan's "reactions" fell into Luo Zhaoqing's eyes, as if a thorn in the side had surrendered to his words and prestige.

He seemed to have conquered a person's body and mind.

That silent compliment to his power made Luo Zhaoqing nod with satisfaction.

"very good."
-
Second floor of the dungeon, the mountaintop courtyard.

In the martial arts training room.

In the three nutrition chambers connected side by side, even if they were immersed in the rich color of the mixture of high-energy potion and demon blood potion.

At this moment, the wild aura revealed by Jiang Lingxiu's looming figure was almost as sharp as an arrow and difficult to conceal.

This is a sign that her martial arts will is about to mature.

In the process of rushing towards the ultimate true martial arts will, the body and soul can no longer conceal the sharp edge of this moment.

And it is precisely with the perfection of her martial arts will that her martial arts spirit has become infinitely close to the true essence of the Shadow Tiger and Leopard.

This is also a step towards the complete integration of the two aspects.

Yue Hanzhang already had a premonition.

A very strong premonition.

Perhaps, Jiang Lingxiu's breakthrough in martial arts realm and her chance to fully achieve the status of a cultivator of all phenomena will come at this moment!
Even more, accompanied by the deepening stimulation of the demon blood potion.

Yue Hanzhang, the cardinal who was in charge of the bureau, could already clearly feel the imbalance of the ferocious storm of monsters that was connected to Yue Hanzhang through the potion.

The dragon blood aspect is still performing as stably as usual.

This means that Huang Zhishu's pace of refining potions and improving her cultivation and foundation is normal.

But on the other side.

The ferocious storm originating from tigers and leopards is becoming more and more violent.

What is contained in it is not just the contents of the demon blood potion.

Moreover, as Jiang Lingxiu continued to approach the beastly side of her that was brought about by supernatural powers, she unconsciously exuded the ferocity of her own supernatural monster side.

A true cultivator of all things should be like Qin Linhui, possessing the violent fighting power of a monster, but keeping all emotions and desires within his mind, completely eliminating the brutality and stupidity of a true monster.

This is what an orthodox Zhuxiang monk needs to hone his martial arts will in the process of refining the golden seal of the ninth level of martial arts.

But in the past, due to the sense of urgency caused by the death that was close by, Mrs. Wei forced Jiang Lingxiu to take a secret shortcut.

However, shortcuts come at a price.

The life-and-death crisis of forcibly swallowing the demon pill in an instant was only part of the price.

From then on, although Jiang Lingxiu could be called an extraordinary cultivator, in reality he was just relying on his body to survive the crisis of life and death, and passively accepted the existence of the beast side.

There is no unity between the two.

Even the beastly form's violent emotions always affected Jiang Lingxiu.

At first, she was able to retain her humanity by relying on her hatred for Mrs. Wei.

Later, he relied on Yue Hanzhang.

As her martial arts improved, her willpower began to be strong enough to counteract the brutality of her beastly side, and the two merged in the process of her improving her martial arts.

But therein lies the problem.

The beast's original dead ferocity was further intensified after it came back to life from Jiang Lingxiu's body.

Everything accumulated between Jiang Lingxiu's body and spirit was also increasing the ferocity of his beastly form.

If we say that ordinary cultivators have to face tenfold ferocity when refining the golden seal of ordination in the Ninth Heaven.

So what Jiang Lingxiu is facing at this moment is a 130% or even 140% ferocious storm.

This was the price she had to pay for her shortcut, like some supernatural version of loan sharking.

But this is also where the special nature of the state lies.

At this moment, the beast's ferocious outburst actually mixed with the ferocious storm of the demon blood potion.

The mutual integration of the same origin seems to make the ferocious storm itself even more violent.

But as luck would have it, Yue Hanzhang's martial arts will was also pulled into the ferocious storm by the demon blood potion.

There is also the silent aftertaste of the music of the mechanized mind.

In an increasingly severe imbalance.

Yue Hanzhang held his breath and concentrated his spirit at an unprecedented level, maintaining the operation of his mechanized mind.

The surging and ferocious storm swept over, but was all resolved one by one by the sonata of the mechanical music.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths...

A long time went on.

The ferocious storm caused by the dragon blood potion has even subsided.

But it seemed that until this moment, as Jiang Lingxiu's martial arts will was completely integrated into the beast form, the ferocious storm had just reached its true peak.

But at this moment, Yue Hanzhang's mechanized mind was like the moonlight in the sky. No matter how turbulent and roaring the huge waves were, the moonlight was always cold and clear, illuminating the boundless ocean.

Sooner or later there will be a calm.

Sooner or later, the waves will be like a mirror, reflecting the moonlight in the sky.

After consuming enough electricity that could be replenished by a whole ball of purple gold thread.

With the help of the mechanical brain, Yue Hanzhang calmed the tiger blood storm just as he calmed the dragon blood storm.

At first glance, it seemed like subduing dragons and taming tigers as usual.

However, the nature of the ferocious storm has changed.

What he conquered was not the remaining fierceness of the potion.

What he subdued was all the brutality of the beastly side of the Monk of All Elephants.

It is the charm that is formed after a person's martial arts will is integrated into it.

What he subdued was Jiang Lingxiu's body and mind.
