Zhou Shu smiled and said, "It's nothing. I accept your kindness, so it helps me."

When almost everything is wrong, having someone to support you is a kind of help in itself.

"Oh, I got it."

Lu Qi thought for a while, put away the Silver Pine Sword, and showed a bit of hesitation, "I..."

"What's wrong?"

He hesitated to speak, probably because he had something else to say.

Lu Qi paused for a while and then said slowly, "Master said that I am not allowed to help you farm and water your fields this year. Unless you win against Hong Yuan, I will not be allowed to do so in the future. But if you win against Hong Yuan, senior brother, then I will not be allowed to help you again."

You can do whatever you want..."

He looked sad and a little aggrieved.

Zhou Shu was startled when he heard this, but quickly nodded, "Okay, it's okay. You practice hard this year, and then help me after one year."

As the peak leader, Miao Xiu was indeed very scheming. In order not to affect the elders' opinion of him, he asked his apprentice to separate the relationship with Zhou Shu as soon as possible. But if Zhou Shu defeated Hong Yuan, the relationship would naturally be restored. After all, by then

, defeating the genius Zhou Shu, his status has increased significantly, I am afraid that the Heyin Sect will vigorously cultivate and establish a good relationship.

Zhou Shu also thought so, but many other pulse condensation realm cultivators couldn't see it.

But that was a year later. As for now, he had no reason to get involved with a talented direct disciple against an outside disciple with low qualifications.

Very realistic.

However, Zhou Shu can understand that cultivating immortals is like society. If it is not realistic, it will be difficult to develop well in such a sect, but Zhou Shu himself will not be such a realistic person.

Lu Qi looked at Zhou Shu and said tentatively, "Senior brother, you won't blame me, right?"

"No, listening to your master will be more beneficial to your future," Zhou Shu smiled, waved his hand, and asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid of master's scolding if you give me the sword like this?"

Lu Qi shook his head a few times and said seriously, "Without senior brother, I can't even practice sword techniques, so what's the use of having a sword? Even if you scold me, you have to give it away, otherwise you will feel uneasy. Don't blame my master. In fact, master also

He said good things about you and said you were very courageous, but..."

"I know."

Zhou Shu smiled and didn't let him continue.

He didn't want to know too much about how Miao Xiu evaluated him. Miao Xiu had been of great help to him. He also respected Miao Xiu and didn't want to cause any discord or affect their master-disciple relationship.

Although this Lu Qi is young, he is very moral and upright. He is a hundred times stronger than his former fellow sect members of the Wuhuan sect, and is worthy of friendship.

"I'm leaving, senior brother."

Lu Qi lowered his head and walked out. After walking a few steps, he turned back and shook his fist at Zhou Shu, "Brother, I believe you can defeat him!"

Zhou Shu nodded, "You must also work hard to understand the meaning of the sword as soon as possible."

Lu Qi nodded seriously and left quickly, while Zhou Shu tidied up the room for a while and went down the mountain.

Shortly after Zhou Shu left, a figure appeared from the darkness of Shaking Wind Garden, quietly took out a communication talisman, and threw it into the air.

Most of the talismans such as communication talismans are specially made blank talismans. When used, they can be completed by injecting spiritual power with magic formulas. They can transmit messages to distant cultivators, and the distance of transmission is determined according to the cultivator's cultivation level. It is

A type of talisman, different from painting talismans, only practitioners in the foundation building realm can create and use it.

If it is a short-distance communication or a communication supported by a magic circle, many sects use magic weapons such as the Communication Jade Board to complete it. There is no need to use the communication talisman, and even low-level disciples can use it.

Although this man was a disciple of the Heyin Sect, he used messenger talismans to convey messages. Obviously, those messages were sent to monks outside the sect.

Zhou Shu left the mountain gate and headed straight for the Qingyuan Mountains.

There are also many small mountain ranges around the Qingyuan Mountains. These places lack spiritual power and resources, and are not in the eyes of the five major sects, so they have become the territory of many small sects and families. Without the constraints of the five major sects, There are constant disputes here, and resources and land may change hands at any time. One day it is mine, and tomorrow it becomes someone else's.

The place Zhou Shu wants to go is called Fanglian Mountain, named after the Snow Jade Lotus. It is extremely tall, with a radius of about a hundred miles, and is covered with snow all year round.

After nearly a day of running around, Zhou Shu was thousands of miles away from the Qingyuan Mountains, and gradually saw the shadow of the Wanlian Mountains.

A peak stands out from the clouds and mist, like a flower bud that has never bloomed. The top is almost perfectly round, and there are countless small peaks scattered around it, like leaves.

"What a wonderful peak."

Zhou Shu stared at Wanlian Mountain in the distance and couldn't help but sigh. At the same time, he activated the Shadow Escape Technique and his body suddenly deviated five feet to the side.

Bang!

Just where Zhou Shu had stood fighting, the ground suddenly cracked, and an earthy-yellow stone cone emerged from the ground. The stone cone was at least a foot high, and the top was as sharp as a knife.

If Zhou Shu were still standing there, he would probably be pierced by a stone cone and his intestines would be torn.

It's really vicious.

"Come out."

Zhou Shu held the Zhuyun Sword and looked around coldly.

He didn't have any consciousness, but his keen perception allowed him to feel the shaking on the ground, and he knew there was a ghost, so he changed his position instantly.

Most of the stone cones that pop up suddenly come from the Stone Cone Technique, which is a relatively complex method that can only be used by cultivators above the sixth level of the Qi Refining Realm. It is very powerful and very hidden, but there are signs to look for. Zhou Shu knew this very well.

"You can actually avoid it, you are quite capable, hehe."

A rather contemptuous laugh came from the side, and two masked cultivators in black grew out of the ground.

It is indeed growing, like a flower and grass, rising from head to toe, emerging from the ground little by little, which is quite strange.

"Earth Escape Technique, we are in trouble..."

Zhou Shu frowned, looking dignified. The Earth Escape Technique allows the cultivator to hide in the ground. If he hides deep enough, he won't even be able to detect it with his spiritual consciousness. The cultivator can also use the Technique in the earth to attack the opponent. Its It is extremely useful, whether it is escaping or attacking, it is extremely effective, and is much more powerful than ordinary magic tricks.

But the Earth Escape Technique is not an ordinary magic formula that can be used casually if you have spiritual power. It requires special training and great perseverance to practice it, and if the practitioner does not practice it before the Pulse Condensation Realm, It has a great impact on the body, disfigurement, scars all over the body, injuries to the vocal cords, etc. It is equivalent to using self-mutilation in exchange for magic tricks.

Pulse Condensation Realm cultivators can already fly, and most of them will not be able to practice such difficult techniques.

Therefore, Earth Escape Technique is rare. Most cultivators want to learn it but don't dare to learn it. Those who can learn it don't want to learn it. Only cultivators trained by certain families can practice it. These cultivators can even sacrifice their lives for their family, not to mention It's something as small as self-mutilation or disfigurement.

The two people in front of me are both at the tenth level of the Qi Refining Realm, so they are definitely not at the Pulse Condensation Realm.

Zhou Shu pointed at them with a stern look on his face, "You are not from the Sixth Sect, so who are you?"

"Don't know, you will die soon."

The voice is hoarse, like the sound of metal rubbing against each other. It is so harsh that it is unbearable to listen to.

"I'll know."

Zhou Shu hummed, and moved his body. The man and the sword seemed to merge into one, turning into a ray of light and rushing towards the two of them.

The two looked at each other, let out a disdainful sneer, and quickly sank into the ground and disappeared.

This place is completely empty and there is no one in sight in this huge place. It is obvious that an ambush point has been set up long ago.

The situation was very serious. Zhou Shu didn't know where they would suddenly appear from and launch an attack. Everything was unknown.

The invisible opponent is the formidable opponent.

Zhou Shu is in danger.
