Refining Qi starts from repairing the panel

Meeting Shang Zuling here was really beyond Chu Zheng's expectations.

It has been nearly twenty years since they parted on the foreign battlefield. In just twenty years, Shang Zuling has climbed from the middle stage of the Divine Infant to the Tongxuan realm. This talent is truly amazing.

However, Shang Zuling's current condition is obviously not very good. Her originally yellowish skin is now as pale as paper, and her body is covered in a wide black robe. Her tall and handsome figure, which was originally different from that of an ordinary woman, now looks a little thin.

She was covered in a layer of sleight of hand, some kind of secret technique was unknown, her appearance had not changed much, but her aura was no longer that of a pure immortal cultivator, it seemed a little mixed, and she seemed to blend in well with the creatures in the underground palace, blending in with the crowd and not conspicuous at all.

The Po Sha Army is generally divided into three major camps: Heaven, Earth, and Human. These are further divided into camps one to nine. Camps one to three are the Heaven Camp, which are open to only the most talented people. They are the elite among the elite, and are also the place where the Ministry of Justice replenishes fresh blood.

The fact that Shang Zuling was able to enter the Second Battalion before was enough to prove that he had extraordinary talent. Even in the battlefield of all realms where outstanding people emerged in large numbers, he was one in a million.

Chu Zheng's gaze was too obvious, and Shang Zuling quickly noticed it and looked over there.

"Friend Shang, how are you?"

Shang Zuling was stunned for a moment when he heard the long-lost voice ringing in his mind. Then he remembered who the owner of the voice was. He opened his eyes wide in surprise for a moment, as if he was not sure whether to recognize him.

"Chu... Daoist friend?"

"Come in and talk."

Chu Zheng nodded slightly, turned and walked towards the shop behind him.

Shang Zuling walked into the shop silently, his eyes wandering as he looked at the furnishings inside.

The structure of the shop is very simple. There are three shelves with some strange objects, most of which are damaged. On the counter, which is more than half a person's height, there are a few miscellaneous books and some small tools.

Chu Zheng was about to turn around and close the door when a little head popped out from the door, his face full of questions:

"Uncle Chu, why are you closing so early today? Are you still doing business?"

Looking at the little boy who suddenly appeared, Chu Zheng's eyes were gentle and he squatted down:

"Xiaoye, what's wrong?"

"I accidentally broke this before. Can it be repaired? This is my mother's legacy. I'm afraid my father will come back and beat me up."

Xiaoye opened his palm, revealing a green jade lock.

[Spirit Encirclement Lock (Level 1/Incomplete): A magical tool carved from spirit jade. Wearing it all year round can warm the tendons and bones, dredge the meridians, and is beneficial to spiritual practice. The array pattern is broken and incomplete (can be repaired).]

"Come and get it tomorrow." Chu Zheng nodded with a smile and took the jade lock.

"How many spirit stones do you want?" Xiao Ye looked a little hesitant.

"It's not difficult. One spirit stone is enough."

"Thank you, Uncle Chu. I'll come again tomorrow morning!"

After hearing Chu Zheng's reply, the boy's eyes lit up and he turned and left.

Chu Zheng closed the shop door and turned to meet Shang Zuling's inquiring gaze.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, long time no see."

Looking at Chu Zheng in front of her, Shang Zuling nodded and greeted him, feeling a little complicated. Although she didn't know the whole story, her current situation seemed to be closely related to Chu Zheng.

"Before the incident at Yuanling Holy Land, the elders of the clan used the secret blood technique to inform me of some things in advance. So in the chaos, I escaped and used the secret blood exchange technique to wash away all traces of the Shang family. That's how I luckily survived."

"It seems that the family is not very clear about the inside story. Does Fellow Daoist Chu know what happened?"

"It's a long story. Let me heal your wounds first."

Chu Zheng took a deep breath, raised his hand and shot a ray of fairy light into Shang Zuling's body, repairing some of her internal injuries.

Shang Zuling has undergone a blood transfusion. If it is completely restored, the blood of the Immortal King in her body will be revived, and the previous blood transfusion will lose its meaning.

"You have become a True Immortal?!"

Shang Zuling's expression suddenly changed. She sensed the tremendous immortal power in Chu Zheng's body, which was something a cultivator in the Immortal Tribulation Realm could never possess.

This means that Chu Zheng is already a genuine immortal!

Back then, the two of them were on the Hidden Dragon List together. All things considered, he is only in his early forties this year!

After twenty years of separation, we met again, and everything had changed completely!

"Fortunately, I was able to survive thanks to the help of Immortal Lord Cang Yun, and only then could I have this humble cultivation today."

Chu Zheng shook his head slightly and immediately told Shang Zuling all the changes that had happened before.

After a while, Shang Zuling finally digested this information and fell into deep thought.

"Now the Ten Thousand Worlds and the Martial Palace are all hunting me down, and the Immortal Alliance is also looking for me. I can only hide here for a while."

At this point, Chu Zheng took a breath and asked, "Fellow Daoist Shang, what are your plans next?"

"If you have nowhere to go, then stay here for the time being. The kindness that Immortal Lord Cang Yun has shown me is greater than the heavens. You are his descendant, and we are also old friends, so you should help him."

Thinking of Shang Cangyun, Chu Zheng couldn't help but sigh again: "What's more, the reason you are in this situation now is because of me."

If it wasn't for helping him, Shang Cangyun wouldn't have been exposed so early, at least he would have had some time to prepare.

"I'm sorry to bother you during this period of time."

Shang Zuling came to her senses and immediately decided to stay for a while. It was not pleasant to hide from place to place during this period of time. She needed to have a good rest and recuperate her body.

The night passed in a flash.

When the essence of the sun above the dome lit up again, Chu Zheng opened the shop door as usual, and Xiao Ye had been waiting outside the door eagerly.

Chu Zheng smiled faintly and handed over the jade lock.

"Uncle Chu, you are amazing! I have asked several weapon refiners before, but they were unwilling to repair it."

Seeing the jade lock glowing again, Xiao Ye's face was full of joy. He carefully took out a spirit stone from his arms, put it into Chu Zheng's palm, and turned to leave.

Looking at the figure jumping away, Chu Zheng's smile faded and his expression gradually calmed down.

On the ground, there is only a fight for life and death among the creatures themselves. These creatures underground may be considered to be truly alive.

With the continuation of new bloodlines, there are countless creatures like Xiaoye with weak cultivation. They can only barely survive in this world with the protection of layers of formations.

He did not want to disrupt the rare tranquility of this place, and he could no longer delay his transformation and tribulation.

Chu Zheng raised his head slightly, his eyes looked towards the dome, and a trace of divine thought emerged from between his eyebrows.

The divine consciousness passed through the magic circle and returned to the lower heaven. From the wisps of starlight in the sky, it began to search for a large world suitable for incarnation and experiencing tribulations.
